NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries are prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company's audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, the Company's quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Effective April 1, 2015, the Company reorganized certain of its businesses to better leverage the Company’s resources. As a result, the Company realigned its operating segments. See Note 14 for additional information, including information regarding changes in the composition of certain of the Company's reportable operating segments.

As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company” mean Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.

Note 2 — New accounting standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. The new guidance is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the new guidance. The guidance is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years; early application is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

TELEFLEX INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

(Unaudited)

In April 2015, FASB issued guidance for the reporting of debt issuance costs within the balance sheet. Under the new guidance, debt issuance costs are to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the associated debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. Currently, debt issuance costs are presented as a deferred charge (i.e., an asset) on the balance sheet. In addition to providing uniform treatment for debt issuance costs and debt discounts, the guidance is consistent with other FASB guidance, which states that debt issuance costs are similar to debt discounts because they reduce the proceeds of borrowing (thereby increasing the effective interest rate) and cannot be an asset because they provide no future economic benefit. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted, and is required to be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the specified effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued standards that are not yet effective and, unless otherwise discussed above, believes these standards will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

The Company made the following acquisitions during 2015 (the "2015 acquisitions"), which were accounted for as business combinations:


•	On January 20, 2015, the Company acquired Human Medics Co., Ltd., (“Human Medics”), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Korean market.


•	On March 30, 2015, the Company acquired Trintris Medical, Inc. ("Trintris"), an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of balloons and catheters that complement the Company's OEM product portfolio.


•	On April 8, 2015, the Company acquired Truphatek Holdings Limited ("Truphatek"), a manufacturer of a broad range of disposable and reusable laryngoscope devices that complement the Company's anesthesia product portfolio. The Company had previously held a 6% noncontrolling interest in Truphatek.


•	On June 26, 2015, the Company acquired certain assets of N. Stenning & Co., Pty., Ltd. ("Stenning"), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Australian market.

As a result of the above transactions, the Company has acquired all of the common stock and voting equity interest in Human Medics, Trintris and Truphatek.

The aggregate total fair value of consideration for the 2015 acquisitions is estimated to be $40.4 million, which includes initial payments of $37.8 million, $1.8 million in deferred consideration and the fair value of the Company's previously held noncontrolling equity interest in Truphatek of $1.2 million, partially offset by a $0.4 million favorable working capital adjustment. As a result of the Company's remeasurement, immediately prior to the acquisition date, of the fair value of the noncontrolling equity interest the Company previously held in Truphatek, the Company recognized a gain of $1.0 million that reduced selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Transaction expenses associated with the acquisitions, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of income were $0.7 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015. The results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date. For the three months ended June 28, 2015, the Company recorded revenue and loss from continuing operations before taxes related to the acquired businesses of $1.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 28, 2015, the Company recorded revenue and loss from continuing operations before taxes related to the acquired businesses of $2.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively. Pro forma information is not presented as the operations of the acquired businesses are not significant to the overall operations of the Company.

The following table presents the preliminary fair value determination of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the 2015 acquisitions:



	(Dollars in thousands)
Assets
Current assets	$	10,364
Property, plant and equipment	2,475
Intangible assets:
Intellectual property	4,067
Non-compete agreements	1,916
Customer list	8,302
Goodwill	18,928
Other assets	45
Total assets acquired	46,097
Less:
Current liabilities	3,048
Deferred tax liabilities	2,477
Other liabilities	138
Liabilities assumed	5,663
Net assets acquired	$	40,434

The Company is continuing to evaluate the 2015 acquisitions. Further adjustments may be necessary as a result of the Company's assessment of additional information related to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily deferred tax liabilities and goodwill.

Among the acquired assets, intellectual property has useful lives ranging from 15 to 20 years, customer lists have useful lives ranging from 10 to 18 years and non-compete arrangements have useful lives of 5 years. The goodwill resulting from the acquisitions primarily reflects synergies expected to be realized from the integration of the acquired businesses. Goodwill and the step-up in basis of the intangible assets in connection with stock acquisitions are not deductible for tax purposes.

The Company made the following acquisitions during 2014 (the "2014 acquisitions"), which were accounted for as business combinations:


•	On February 3, 2014, the Company acquired Mayo Healthcare Pty Limited, ("Mayo Healthcare"), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Australian market.


•	On December 2, 2014, the Company acquired the assets of Mini-Lap Technologies, Inc. ("Mini-Lap"), a developer of micro-laparoscopic instrumentation that complement the Company's surgical product portfolio.

Note 4 — Restructuring and impairment charges

2015 Restructuring Plans

During the first quarter 2015, the Company committed to programs associated with the reorganization of certain of its businesses as discussed in Note 14 and the consolidation of certain facilities in North America. The Company estimates that it will record aggregate pre-tax charges of $6 million to $7 million related to these programs, which represent employee termination benefits, contract termination costs and facility closure and other exit costs and will result in future cash outlays. For the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, the Company recorded charges of $0.1 million and $4.4 million, respectively, related to these programs. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has a reserve of $3.5 million related to these programs.

2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan

On April 28, 2014, the Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan”) involving the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain of the Company’s facilities, and the relocation of manufacturing operations from certain higher-cost locations to existing lower-cost locations. These actions commenced in the quarter ended June 29, 2014 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2017.

The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax charges in connection with these restructuring activities of approximately $37 million to $44 million, of which an estimated $26 million to $31 million are expected to result in future cash outlays. Most of these charges are expected to be incurred prior to the end of 2016.

The following table provides a summary of the Company's current cost estimates by major type of expense associated with the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan:



Type of expense	Total estimated amount expected to be incurred

Termination benefits	$11 million to $13 million
Facility closure and other exit costs	$2 million to $3 million
Accelerated depreciation charges	$10 million to $11 million
Other	$14 million to $17 million
	$37 million to $44 million

The Company recorded expenses of $3.6 million and $5.9 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, related to the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan. Of this amount, $0.5 million and $0.7 million were recorded as restructuring expense for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, and $3.1 million and $5.2 million, related to accelerated depreciation and certain other transfer related costs resulting from the plan for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, and were included in cost of goods sold. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has incurred net aggregate restructuring and impairment charges related to the plan of $10.0 million. Additionally, as of June 28, 2015, the Company has incurred net aggregate accelerated depreciation and certain other costs in connection with the plan of $10.1 million, which were included in cost of sales. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $7.5 million in connection with the plan, all of which relates to termination benefits.

As the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan progresses, management will reevaluate the estimated expenses set forth above, and may revise its estimates, as appropriate, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.

2014 European Restructuring Plan

In February 2014, the Company committed to a restructuring plan (the “2014 European Restructuring Plan”), which impacts certain administrative functions in Europe and involves the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain of the Company’s European facilities.

These programs include costs related to termination benefits, contract termination costs and other exit costs. As of June 28, 2015, the Company had a reserve of $0.6 million in connection with these programs. The Company expects to complete the programs in 2015.

LMA Restructuring Program

In connection with the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of LMA International N.V. (the “LMA business”) in 2012, the Company commenced a program (the "LMA Restructuring Program") related to the integration of the LMA business and the Company’s other businesses. The program was focused on the closure of the LMA business’ corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution functions in North America, Europe and Asia.

In May 2012, the Company acquired Semprus BioSciences ("Semprus"), a biomedical research and development company that developed a polymer surface treatment technology intended to reduce thrombus related complications. The Company experienced difficulties with respect to the development of the Semprus technology, and devoted further research and testing towards attempting to resolve the issue. As a result of these efforts, the Company believes it has resolved the issue and is focused on seeking regulatory approval and engaging in additional research and development efforts to achieve commercialization of this technology. Despite this progress, significant challenges to commercialization of the Semprus technology remain, and the Company ultimately may find it necessary to recognize impairment charges with respect to the related assets, which could be material. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has in-process research and development ("IPR&D") intangible assets of $41.0 million related to this investment which are recorded in intangible assets, net.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $15.1 million and $16.1 million for the three months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, respectively, and $29.8 million and $32.1 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, respectively.

Classification of 3.875% Convertible Notes as a Current Liability

The Company's 3.875% Convertible Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes") are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at the option of the holder upon the occurrence of any of the following circumstances (i) during any fiscal quarter, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter exceeds 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; or (ii) during the 5 business day period after any 5 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes is less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the common stock and the applicable conversion rate on each trading day during the measurement period; or (iii) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events; or (iv) at any time on or after May 1, 2017 up to and including July 28, 2017. The Convertible Notes are convertible at a conversion rate of 16.3084 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $61.32 per share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment upon certain events. Upon conversion, the Company’s conversion obligation may be satisfied, at the Company’s option, in shares of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. The Company has elected a net-settlement method to satisfy its conversion obligation. Under the net-settlement method, the Company will settle the $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash and settle the excess conversion value in shares, plus cash in lieu of fractional shares.

Since the fourth quarter 2013, the Company's last reported sale price has exceeded the 130% threshold described above and accordingly the Convertible Notes have been classified as a current liability as of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The determination of whether or not the Convertible Notes are convertible as described above is made each quarter until maturity, conversion or repurchase. Consequently, it is possible that the Convertible Notes may not be convertible in one or more future quarters, in which case the Convertible Notes would again be classified as long-term debt, unless one of the other conversion contingencies described above were to be satisfied. While the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to repay the principal amount due through a combination of utilizing its existing cash on hand and accessing its credit facility, the Company's use of these funds could adversely affect its results of operations and liquidity.

Other than the absence of registration rights for the holders of the New 2024 Notes, the terms of the New 2024 Notes are essentially identical to the terms of the Old 2024 Notes.The exchange offer was completed on April 24, 2015; all of the holders of the Old 2024 Notes exchanged their Old 2024 Notes for New 2024 Notes.

Redemption of 6.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019

On June 1, 2015, the Company prepaid the $250 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”). In addition to its prepayment of principal, the Company paid the holders of the 2019 Notes an $8.6 million prepayment make-whole amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company recorded the prepayment make-whole amount and a $1.9 million write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the condensed consolidated statement of income in the second quarter 2015. The Company used $246.0 million in borrowings under its revolving credit facility, $12.1 million in borrowings under its securitization program and available cash to fund the prepayment of the 2019 Notes.

Repayment of Revolving Credit Facility Borrowings

On July 29, 2015, the Company repaid $50 million of outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility with available cash.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

The carrying amount of current and long-term borrowings as reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 28, 2015 is $1,112.0 million. To determine the fair value of its debt, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve. The following table provides the fair value of the Company’s debt as of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014, categorized by the level of inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value (see Note 10, “Fair value measurement,” in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 for further information):

Note 8 — Financial instruments

The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts are used to manage foreign currency transaction exposure. These derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair market value. The effective portion of the gains or losses on derivatives is reported as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income and thereafter is recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of income in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivatives representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, if any, are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of income in the period in which such gains and losses occur.

See Note 10 for information on the location in the condensed consolidated statements of income and amount of gains attributable to derivatives that were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (“AOCI”) to expense (income), net of tax.

There was no ineffectiveness related to the Company’s derivatives during the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014.

Based on foreign currency exchange rates at June 28, 2015, approximately $0.8 million of unrealized gains, net of tax, within AOCI are expected to be reclassified from AOCI to the condensed consolidated statement of income during the remainder of 2015. However, the actual amount reclassified from AOCI could vary due to future changes in exchange rates.

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. A portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the United States, however, include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the creditworthiness of those countries’ and the financial stability of their economies.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company grants non-interest bearing trade credit to its customers on normal credit terms. In an effort to reduce its credit risk, the Company (i) establishes credit limits for all of its customer relationships, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of its customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance.

An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for accounts receivable based on the Company’s historical collection experience and expected collectability of the accounts receivable, considering the period an account is outstanding, the financial position of the customer and information provided by credit rating services. The adequacy of this allowance is reviewed each reporting period and adjusted as necessary. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $9.2 million and $8.8 million at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The current portion of the allowance for doubtful accounts at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 of $2.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively, are reflected in accounts receivable, net. The allowance for doubtful accounts on receivables outstanding for greater than one year at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 of $6.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively, are reflected in other assets.

In light of the disruptions in global economic markets in recent years, the Company instituted enhanced measures, within countries where the Company has collectability concerns, to facilitate customer-by-customer risk assessment when estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts. Such measures include, among others, monthly credit control committee meetings, at which customer credit risks are identified after review of, among other things, accounts that exceed specified credit limits, payment delinquencies and other customer issues. In addition, for some of the Company’s non-government customers, the Company instituted measures designed to reduce its risk exposures, including issuing dunning letters, reducing credit limits, requiring that payments accompany orders and instituting legal action with respect to delinquent accounts. With respect to government customers, the Company evaluates receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement practices.

Certain of the Company’s customers, particularly in Europe, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided, raising collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers, for the most part in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal. As a result, the Company increased the allowance for doubtful accounts related to these customers. If the financial condition of these customers or the healthcare systems in these countries deteriorate to the extent that the ability of an increasing number of customers to satisfy their payment obligations is uncertain, additional allowances may be required in future periods. The aggregate net current and long-term accounts receivable for customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and the percentage of the Company’s total net current and long-term accounts receivable represented by the net current and long-term accounts receivable for customers in those countries at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

Current and long-term accounts receivable (net of allowances of $7.7 million and $8.1 million at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively) in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal (1)	$	76,384		$	76,190
Percentage of total net current and long-term accounts receivable - Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal	26.5		%	27.3		%

(1) The long-term portion of accounts receivable, net from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal at June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $9.1 million and $11.3 million, respectively, and is reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheet in other assets.

For the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, net revenues from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal were $66.2 million and $79.6 million, respectively.

Note 9 — Fair value measurement

For a description of the fair value hierarchy, see Note 10 to the Company’s 2014 consolidated financial statements included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The following tables provide information regarding the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014:



	Total carrying value at June 28, 2015		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Contingent consideration liabilities	33,433		—		—		33,433

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities reported at fair value among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 28, 2015.

The following table provides information regarding changes, during the six months ended June 28, 2015, in Level 3 financial liabilities related to contingent consideration in connection with various Company acquisitions:



	Contingent consideration
	2015
	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance - December 31, 2014	$	33,433
Payment	(4,000		)
Revaluations	(2,283		)
Balance - June 28, 2015	$	27,150

The Company reduced contingent consideration liabilities and selling, general and administrative expense by $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 after determining that relevant conditions for the payment of certain contingent consideration would not be satisfied. This reduction is included in revaluations in the preceding table.

Valuation Techniques

The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to satisfy benefit obligations under Company benefit plans and other arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage currency transaction exposure. The Company measures the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions. The Company accounts for contingent consideration in accordance with applicable accounting guidance related to business combinations. In connection with several of its acquisitions, the Company agreed to pay contingent consideration upon the achievement of specified objectives, including receipt of regulatory approvals, achievement of sales targets and, in some instances, the passage of time, and recorded contingent consideration liabilities at the time of the acquisitions. The Company determines the fair value of the liabilities for contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and, therefore, represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future payments under contingent consideration arrangements is based on several factors including:



l	estimated cash flows projected from the success of market launches;



l	the estimated time and resources needed to complete the development of acquired technologies;



l	the uncertainty of obtaining regulatory approvals within the required time periods; and



l	the risk adjusted discount rate for fair value measurement.

In connection with the Company's contingent consideration arrangements, the Company estimates that it will make payments in 2015 through 2029. As of June 28, 2015, the range of undiscounted amounts the Company could be required to pay under contingent consideration arrangements is between $11.0 million and $64.0 million. The Company is required to reevaluate the fair value of contingent consideration each reporting period based on new developments and record changes in fair value until such consideration is satisfied through payment upon the achievement of the specified objectives or is no longer payable due to failure to achieve the specified objectives.

The following table provides information regarding the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities categorized as Level 3 measurements as of June 28, 2015:



	Valuation Technique	Unobservable Input	Range (Weighted Average)
Contingent consideration	Discounted cash flow	Discount rate	1.6% - 10% (7.7%)
		Probability of payment	0% - 100% (57.3%)

As of June 28, 2015, the Company recorded $27.2 million of total liabilities for contingent consideration, of which $5.8 million and $21.4 million were recorded as the current portion of contingent consideration and other liabilities, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Note 10 — Changes in shareholders’ equity

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015	June 29, 2014	June 28, 2015	June 29, 2014
	(Shares in thousands)
Basic	41,560	41,380	41,514	41,321
Dilutive effect of share-based awards	473	413	470	442
Dilutive effect of 3.875% Convertible Notes and warrants	6,048	4,599	5,704	4,308
Diluted	48,081	46,392	47,688	46,071

Weighted average shares that were antidilutive and therefore not included in the calculation of earnings per share were approximately 5.6 million and 5.7 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, and approximately 6.4 million and 6.5 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively.

During periods in which the average market price of the Company's common stock is above the applicable conversion price of the Convertible Notes, or $61.32 per share, the impact of conversion would be dilutive and the dilutive effect of conversion of the Convertible Notes is reflected in diluted earnings per share. As described in Note 7, the Company has elected the net settlement method of accounting for these conversions, under which the Company will settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash, and settle the excess conversion value in shares. As a result, in these periods, under the treasury stock method, the Company calculates the number of shares issuable under the terms of the Convertible Notes based on the average market price of the stock during the period, and includes that number in the total diluted shares outstanding for the period.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant agreements. The convertible note hedge economically reduces the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes. However, applicable accounting guidance requires the Company to separately analyze the impact of the warrant agreements on diluted weighted average shares outstanding, while excluding the impact of the convertible note hedge agreements because it would be anti-dilutive. The reductions in diluted shares that would result from including the anti-dilutive impact of the convertible note hedges would have been 3.3 million and 3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, and 2.7 million and 2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively. The treasury stock method is applied when the warrants are in-the-money and assumes the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are used to repurchase shares based on the average stock price during the period. The exercise price of the warrants is approximately $74.65 per share of common stock. Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were included in the total diluted shares outstanding were 2.7 million and 2.5 million for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, respectively, and 1.9 million and 1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively.

In 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of outstanding Company common stock. Repurchases of Company stock under the Board authorization may be made from time to time in the open market and may include privately-negotiated transactions as market conditions warrant and subject to regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and the Company’s ability to execute on the program will depend on, among other factors, cash requirements for acquisitions, cash generation from operations, debt repayment obligations, market conditions and regulatory requirements. In addition, under the Company’s senior credit agreements, the Company is subject to certain restrictions relating to its ability to repurchase shares in the event the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior credit agreements) exceeds certain levels, which may limit the Company’s ability to repurchase shares under this Board authorization. Through June 28, 2015, no shares have been purchased under this Board authorization.

Note 11 — Taxes on income from continuing operations

The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014 are as follows:



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015	June 29, 2014	June 28, 2015	June 29, 2014

The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 was 10.5% and 14.7%, respectively, and 17.0% and 18.1% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 benefited from a shift in the mix of taxable income to jurisdictions with lower statutory tax rates.

Note 12 — Pension and other postretirement benefits

The Company has a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. The defined benefit pension plans are noncontributory. The benefits under these plans are based primarily on years of service and employees’ pay near retirement. The Company’s funding policy for U.S. plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws and regulations. Obligations under non-U.S. plans are systematically provided for by depositing funds with trustees or by book reserves. As of June 28, 2015, the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the Company’s other postretirement benefit plans, other than certain postretirement benefit plans covering employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement, are frozen.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries provide medical, dental and life insurance benefits to pensioners and survivors. The associated plans are unfunded and approved claims are paid from Company funds.

Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities

Operating leases: The Company uses various leased facilities and equipment in its operations.

Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At June 28, 2015 the Company has recorded $0.9 million and $6.8 million, in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of June 28, 2015. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15-20 years.

Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment and environmental matters. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $2.6 million in connection with such contingencies, representing its best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the amount accrued as of June 28, 2015, $1.5 million pertains to discontinued operations.

In 2006, the Company was named as a defendant in a wrongful death product liability lawsuit filed in the Louisiana State District Court for the Parish of Calcasieu, involving a product manufactured by the Company’s former marine business. In September 2014, the case was tried before a jury, which returned a verdict in favor of the Company. The plaintiff subsequently filed a motion for a new trial, which was granted, and the case was re-tried before a jury in December 2014. On December 5, 2014, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, awarding $0.1 million in compensatory damages and $23.0 million in punitive damages, plus pre- and post-judgment interest on the compensatory damages and post-judgment interest on the punitive damages. The Company's post-trial motions seeking to overturn the verdict or reduce the amount of damages were denied in June 2015. The Company intends to appeal the verdict to the Louisiana Court of Appeal. As of June 28, 2015, the Company has accrued a liability representing its best estimate of any probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters relating to discontinued operations discussed in the preceding paragraph. The Company believes that any liability arising from this matter in excess of $10.0 million will be covered by the Company’s product liability insurance.

Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.

Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various taxing authorities. As of June 28, 2015, the most significant tax examinations in process are in Austria, Canada, Germany and the United States. In conjunction with these examinations and as a regular and routine practice, the Company may establish reserves or adjust existing reserves with respect to uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, developments occurring with respect to these examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.

Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and items of permanent investment incident to the ordinary conduct of its business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market prices.

Note 14 — Business segment information

An operating segment is a component of the Company (a) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and (c) for which discrete financial information is available. The Company does not evaluate its operating segments using discrete asset information.

Effective April 1, 2015, the Company reorganized certain of its businesses to better leverage the Company’s resources. As a result, the Company realigned its operating segments. Specifically, the Company's Anesthesia/Respiratory North America operating segment was divided into two operating segments, Anesthesia North America and Respiratory North America. Additionally, the businesses comprising the Company's former Specialty operating segment (which was not a reportable segment and, therefore, was included in the "All other" category in the Company's presentation of segment information) were transferred to the Anesthesia North America, Vascular North America and Respiratory North America operating segments.

As a result of the operating segment changes described above, the Company has the following six reportable operating segments: Vascular North America, Anesthesia North America, Surgical North America, EMEA, Asia and OEM. In connection with the presentation of segment information, the Company will continue to present certain operating segments, which, effective April 1, 2015, include, among others, the Respiratory North America operating segment, in the “All other” category. All prior comparative periods presented in this report have been restated to reflect these changes.

The Company’s reportable segments, other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer and Development Services ("OEM") segment, design, manufacture and distribute medical devices primarily used in critical care, surgical applications and cardiac care and generally serve two end markets: hospitals and healthcare providers, and home health. The products of these segments are most widely used in the acute care setting for a range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and in general and specialty surgical applications. The Company’s OEM segment designs, manufactures and supplies devices and instruments for other medical device manufacturers.

Note 15 — Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information

In April 2015, pursuant to an exchange offer registered under the Securities Act of 1933, Teleflex Incorporated (referred to below as “Parent Company”) exchanged $250 million of its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 for a like principal amount of substantially identical notes that it issued in a private placement in May 2014. The notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014, provide consolidated information for:



a.	Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;



b.	Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;



c.	Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis; and



d.	Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidated financial information, except for the use by the Parent Company and Guarantor Subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.

Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.

The condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the Non-guarantor subsidiaries and eliminations for the six months ended June 29, 2014 have been revised to properly reflect that intercompany dividends paid and intercompany dividends received were between Non-guarantor subsidiaries. Previously, intercompany dividends paid and received among Non-guarantor subsidiaries were presented on a gross basis resulting in the overstatement or understatement of cash flows from operations, investing and financing activities. To eliminate this error, the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2014 have been revised as follows: In the Non-guarantor subsidiaries column, net cash (used in) provided by operating activities from continuing operations has been changed from ($33,864) to ($105,302), intercompany dividends received (within cash flows from investing activities of continuing operations) has been changed from $229,782 to $0 and intercompany dividends paid (within cash flows from financing activities of continuing operations) changed from ($303,827) to ($3,135). In the eliminations column, net cash (used in) provided by operating activities from continuing operations changed from ($74,045) to ($3,135), intercompany dividends received changed from ($229,782) to $0 and intercompany dividends paid changed from $303,827 to $3,135.

The Company also made revisions to the classification of certain balances related to intercompany transactions in the condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 and the condensed consolidating balance sheet at December 31, 2014 as well as the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2014.

These revisions, individually and in the aggregate, had no impact on the consolidated results of the Company and are not material to the condensed consolidating guarantor financial information for any of the previously filed periods.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers; delays or cancellations in shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; our ability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with expectations; our ability to effectively execute our restructuring programs; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; and global economic factors, including currency exchange rates, interest rates and sovereign debt issues; difficulties entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise specifically stated by us or as required by law or regulation.

Overview

Teleflex is a global provider of medical technology products that enhance clinical benefits, improve patient and provider safety and reduce total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products to hospitals and healthcare providers worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure.

We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies through:



l	the development of new products and product line extensions;



l	the investment in new technologies and the broadening of their applications;



l	the expansion of the use of our products in existing markets, as well as the introduction of our products into new geographic markets;



l	the achievement of economies of scale as we continue to expand, by leveraging our direct sales force and distribution network with new products, and increasing efficiencies in our manufacturing and distribution facilities; and



l	the broadening of our product portfolio through select acquisitions, licensing arrangements and partnerships that enhance, extend or expedite our development initiatives or our ability to increase our market share.

We also evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to expand our margins through strategic divestitures of existing businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we may seek to optimize our overall facility footprint through restructuring initiatives to further reduce our cost base and enhance our competitive position. For a discussion of our ongoing restructuring programs, see "Restructuring and impairment charges" under “Results of Operations” below.

We made the following acquisitions during 2015, which were accounted for as business combinations:


•	On January 20, 2015, we acquired Human Medics Co., Ltd., (“Human Medics”), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Korean market.


•	On March 30, 2015, we acquired Trintris Medical, Inc. ("Trintris"), an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for balloons and catheters that complement our OEM product portfolio.


•	On April 8, 2015, we acquired Truphatek Holdings Limited ("Truphatek"), a manufacturer of a broad range of disposable and reusable laryngoscope devices that complement our anesthesia product portfolio; and


•	On June 26, 2015, we acquired certain assets of N. Stenning & Co., Pty., Ltd. ("Stenning"), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Australian market.

We made the following acquisitions during 2014, which were accounted for as business combinations:


•	On February 3, 2014, we acquired Mayo Healthcare Pty Limited, ("Mayo Healthcare"), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Australian market.


•	On December 2, 2014, we acquired the assets of Mini-Lap Technologies, Inc. ("Mini-Lap"), a developer of micro-laparoscopic instrumentation that complements the surgical product portfolio.

The total fair value of consideration for the 2015 and 2014 acquisitions was $40.4 million and $66.3 million, respectively. See Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding the acquisitions.

Change in Reporting Segments

Effective April 1, 2015, we reorganized certain our businesses to better leverage our resources. As a result, we realigned our operating segments. Specifically, the Anesthesia/Respiratory North America operating segment was divided into two operating segments, Anesthesia North America and Respiratory North America. Additionally, the businesses comprising the former Specialty operating segment (which was not a reportable segment and, therefore, was included in the "All other" category in the presentation of segment information) were transferred to the Anesthesia North America, Vascular North America and Respiratory North America operating segments.

As a result of the operating segment changes described above, we have the following six reportable operating segments: Vascular North America, Anesthesia North America, Surgical North America, EMEA, Asia and OEM. In connection with the presentation of segment information, we will continue to present certain operating segments, which, effective April 1, 2015, include, among others, the Respiratory North America operating segment, in the “All other” category. All prior comparative periods have been restated to reflect these changes. Additionally, this change impacted our reporting units and as a result, as of the April 1, 2015 effective date, we performed impairment analyses for the new reporting units by comparing the fair value of the reporting units, including goodwill, to their carrying values. The impairment analyses performed included the reallocation of the goodwill balances as a result of the changes previously noted. We did not record any goodwill impairment charges as a result of these analyses.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.

Health Care Reform

On March 23, 2010 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (as amended, the "Affordable Care Act") was signed into law. This legislation significantly impacts our business. For medical device companies such as Teleflex, the expansion of medical insurance coverage should lead to greater utilization of the products we manufacture, but this legislation also contains provisions designed to contain the cost of healthcare, which could negatively affect pricing of our products. The overall impact of the Affordable Care Act on our business is yet to be determined, mainly due to uncertainties around future customer behaviors, which we believe- will be affected by reimbursement factors such as insurance coverage statistics, patient outcomes and patient satisfaction.

In addition, the Affordable Care Act imposed a 2.3% excise tax on sales of medical devices, beginning in 2013. For the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, the medical device excise tax, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses, was $3.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, the medical device excise tax was $3.3 million and $6.2 million, respectively.

Results of Operations

Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences. As used in this discussion, "new products" are products that we have sold for 36 months or less, and “existing products” are products that we have sold for more than 36 months. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired businesses (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition. Our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases on our results of operations generally reflects the impact of increases and decreases in the selling prices of our products to our customers and, for the first 12 months following the acquisition of a distributor, also includes the impact of incremental pricing on our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor from the sales channel. To the extent an acquired distributor had pre-acquisition sales of products other than ours, the impact of the post-acquisition sales of those products on our results of operations is included within our discussion of the impact of acquired businesses.

Net Revenues



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015		June 29, 2014		June 28, 2015		June 29, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Net Revenues	$	452.1	$	468.1	$	881.5	$	906.7

Net revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $16.0 million, or 3.4%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is largely due to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $37.9 million, primarily in the EMEA (Europe, the Middle East and Africa), Asia and OEM segments. The decrease in net revenues was partially offset by a net increase in sales volumes of existing products of $12.4 million across most of our segments, net increases in the sale of new products of $4.1 million, primarily in the EMEA, Surgical North America, OEM and Anesthesia North America segments and net price increases of $3.4 million, primarily in the Asia and Surgical North America segments. Additionally, acquired businesses generated $2.0 million of the Company's incremental revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding prior year period, the majority of which was attributable to Mini-Lap.

Net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $25.2 million, or 2.8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is largely due to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $69.7 million across all of our segments. The decrease in net revenues was partially offset by an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $23.5 million and a net increase in the sales of new products of $9.7 million, both across most of our segments as well as net price increases of $5.9 million, primarily in the Asia and Surgical North America segments. Additionally, acquired businesses generated $5.5 million of the Company's incremental net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding prior year period, the majority of which was attributable to Mayo Healthcare and Mini-Lap.

Gross profit



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014			June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Gross profit	$	233.2		$	244.1		$	455.9		$	465.2
Percentage of sales	51.6		%	52.1		%	51.7		%	51.3		%

Gross margin for the three months ended June 28, 2015 decreased 50 basis points, or 1.0%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in gross margin reflects the impact of net increases in manufacturing costs of 210 basis points, which includes costs associated with product recalls and quality issues identified during the second quarter 2015. These declines were partially offset by a net increase in sales of higher margin products of 40 basis points, primarily in the Vascular North America and OEM segments, efficiencies resulting from higher sales volumes of existing products of 60 basis points primarily in the Vascular North America segment and price increases of 35 basis points primarily in the Asia segment.

Gross margin for the for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased 40 basis points, or 0.8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is attributable to the impact of efficiencies resulting from higher sales volumes of existing products of 55 basis points primarily in the Vascular North America segment, increased sales of higher margin products of 45 basis points primarily in the Vascular North America segment and price increases of 30 basis points primarily in the Asia segment. These increases were partially offset by the impact of increased manufacturing costs of 80 basis points, which includes costs associated with product recalls and quality issues identified during the second quarter 2015.

Selling, general and administrative



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014			June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Selling, general and administrative	$	142.2		$	146.8		$	281.9		$	287.1
Percentage of sales	31.5		%	31.4		%	32.0		%	31.7		%

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $4.6 million for the three months ended June 28, 2015 compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is due to the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of $10.4 million, which resulted in a reduction of expenses, the gain of $1.0 million recognized as a result of the remeasurement, immediately prior to our acquisition of Truphatek, of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest we previously held in Truphatek, and lower amortization of intangibles expense of $1.0 million resulting from certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized during the third quarter 2014. These declines were partially offset by $2.6 million of expenses associated with acquired businesses and conversions from distributors to direct sales, $1.8 million of higher marketing expenses and an increase in general and administrative expenses of $1.3 million primarily related to higher employee related costs. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended June 28, 2015 reflect the unfavorable impact of a $1.6 million net reduction in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities recorded for the three months ended June 29, 2014.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $5.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015 compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is due to the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of $17.7 million, which resulted in a reduction of expenses, lower amortization of intangibles expense of $2.3 million resulting from certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized during the third quarter 2014, a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $1.3 million primarily related to lower employee related costs, and a gain of $1.0 million recognized as a result of our remeasurement, immediately prior to our acquisition of Truphatek, of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest we previously held in Truphatek. These declines were partially offset by $6.3 million of expenses associated with the acquired businesses and distributor to direct sales conversions, $3.4 million of higher marketing expenses and $3.1 million of higher selling expenses, primarily related to higher sales commissions. In addition, selling, general and administrative expenses during the six months ended June 28, 2015 reflect the unfavorable impact of a $4.3 million net reduction in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities recorded for the six months ended June 29, 2014.

Research and development



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014			June 28, 2015			June 29, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Research and development	$	13.4		$	14.9		$	26.3		$	28.9
Percentage of sales	3.0		%	3.2		%	3.0		%	3.2		%

The decline in research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 compared to the corresponding prior year periods primarily reflects the fact that research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 included increased investment related to businesses acquired in 2013. In addition, the reduction reflects efficiencies realized in 2015 through the integration of certain research and development projects conducted by acquired businesses into our existing structure.

Restructuring and impairment charges



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 28, 2015		June 29, 2014		June 28, 2015		June 29, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring and impairment charges	$	0.6	$	7.6	$	5.0	$	15.4

For the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, we recorded $0.6 million and $5.0 million, respectively, in restructuring charges which primarily relate to the 2015 restructuring plans. During the first quarter 2015, we committed to programs associated with the reorganization of certain of our businesses and the consolidation of certain facilities in North America. We estimate that we will record pre-tax charges of $6 million to $7 million related to these programs, substantially all of which represent employee termination benefits and contract termination costs and will result in future cash outlays. The 2015 programs are designed to generate savings beginning in 2015 and are expected to generate annual pre-tax savings of $12 million to $14 million in 2017.

For the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, we recorded $7.6 million and $15.4 million, respectively, in restructuring and impairment charges. For the three months ended June 29, 2014, we incurred $8.6 million of charges pertaining to termination benefits in connection with our 2014 manufacturing footprint realignment restructuring program and $2.5 million of charges pertaining to termination benefits, contract termination and other exit costs associated with other restructuring activities initiated in 2014 and 2013. These charges were partially offset by a $3.5 million reversal of expense, which was primarily related to the settlement of a terminated European distributor agreement associated with our LMA restructuring program. For the six months ended June 29, 2014, we incurred $8.6 million of charges pertaining to termination benefits in connection with our 2014 manufacturing footprint realignment restructuring program; $8.1 million of charges primarily related to termination benefits associated with our 2014 European restructuring program; and $2.3 million of charges pertaining to termination benefits, contract termination and other exit costs associated with other restructuring activities initiated in 2014 and 2013. These charges were partially offset by $3.6 million of expense reversals, which was primarily related to the settlement of a terminated European distributor agreement associated with our LMA restructuring program.

The increase in interest expense for the six months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding period in 2014, reflects an increase in the average interest rate on our outstanding debt, as our 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024, which were issued in 2014 to pay down the balance on our revolving credit facility during 2014, bear a fixed interest rate that is higher than the variable interest rate under our revolving credit facility.

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 28, 2015 and June 29, 2014

Vascular North America

Vascular North America net revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased $4.0 million, or 5.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in sales volumes of existing products of $6.1 million, which were partially offset by a decline in new product sales of $1.5 million. This decline was mainly due to new products that were put on hold as a result of a third party manufactured component quality issue.

Vascular North America net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased $9.9 million, or 6.5%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $12.4 million, which was partially offset by decreases in new product sales of $1.3 million, which was mainly due to new products that were put on hold as a result of a third party manufactured component quality issue, unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $0.7 million and price decreases of $0.6 million.

Vascular North America operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased $3.4 million, or 25.0%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to the impact of an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $4.4 million and the $1.7 million impact of an increase of sales of higher margin products, which were partially offset by higher employee related costs of $1.2 million, the impact of decreases in new product sales of $1.0 million and higher marketing expenses of $0.7 million.

Vascular North America operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased $7.1 million, or 27.5%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Surgical North America operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased nominally when compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to price increases of $1.0 million and the impact of the Mini-Lap acquisition of $1.0 million, which were partially offset by higher amortization expense of $1.1 million resulting from the commencement of amortization for certain intellectual property assets, lower sales of higher margin products of $0.8 million and $0.6 million of higher selling expenses, primarily related to higher sales commissions and higher marketing expense of $0.6 million.

Surgical North America operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased $1.8 million, or 7.2%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

EMEA

EMEA net revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $25.6 million, or 16.5%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $28.1 million and price decreases of $0.8 million. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in sales volumes of our existing products of $1.6 million and an increase in new products sales of $1.3 million.

EMEA net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $46.5 million, or 15.3%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

EMEA segment operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $10.5 million, or 35.0%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $7.5 million, higher manufacturing costs of $5.7 million and the impact of price decreases of $0.8 million, which were partially offset by lower general and administrative expenses of $2.0 million driven by restructuring savings and other employee related costs as well as lower amortization resulting from certain intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the third quarter 2014. Additionally, operating profit was favorably impacted by an increase in sales volumes of our existing products of $1.7 million, an increase in sales of higher margin products of $0.8 million and an increase in new product sales of $0.7 million.

EMEA segment operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $11.1 million, or 19.5%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Additionally, operating profit was favorably impacted by an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $3.0 million, an increase in sales of higher margin products of $1.7 million and an increase in new product sales of $1.6 million.

Asia

Asia net revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $0.4 million, or 0.8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $6.4 million, which were partially offset by the Human Medics acquisition and other price increases of $3.4 million, an increase in sales volumes of our existing products of $1.8 million and an increase in new product sales of $0.5 million.

Asia net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $1.6 million, or 1.4%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $11.0 million, which were partially offset by prices increases of $5.1 million, sales resulting from the Mayo Healthcare and Human Medics acquisitions of $3.0 million and an increase in sales of new products of $1.4 million.

Asia segment operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased $1.9 million or 11.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to the impact of price increases of $3.4 million, the impact of an increase in sales volumes of our existing products of $1.3 million and lower selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.5 million on our business excluding Human Medics. These favorable impacts were partially offset by the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $2.1 million and higher expenses resulting from the acquisitions, primarily Human Medics, and distributor to direct sales conversions of $1.8 million, and higher manufacturing costs of $0.7 million.

Asia segment operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015 decreased $2.8 million or 9.4%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $5.2 million, higher manufacturing costs of $1.2 million, expenses associated with the acquisition of Human Medics and conversion from distributor to direct sales of $4.3 million and a decrease in sales of higher margin products of $0.7 million. The impact of the reductions were partially offset by the impact of price increases of $5.1 million, the impact of sales of higher gross margin products resulting from the Human Medics acquisition as well as the conversion from distributor to direct sales of $1.7 million, the $0.9 million impact of increased sales of new products and lower selling, general and administrative expenses on our business excluding Human Medics and conversions from distributor to direct sales of $0.8 million.

OEM

OEM net revenues for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased $1.3 million, or 3.6%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $1.6 million and an increase in new product sales of $0.9 million, which were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $1.4 million.

OEM net revenues for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased $2.8 million, or 4.0%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $3.7 million and new product sales of $1.5 million, which were partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $2.6 million.

OEM segment operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015 increased $0.1 million, or 1.2%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to the $1.2 million impact of sales of higher margin products, and the $0.8 million impact of increases in sales volumes of existing products, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.2 million primarily related to higher employee related costs.

OEM segment operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015 increased $1.5 million, or 10.1%, compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to the $1.8 million impact of increases in sales volumes, the $1.4 million impact of sales of higher margin products and the $0.7 million impact of an increase in new product sales, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.3 million primarily related to higher employee related costs, unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of $0.6 million and higher research and development costs of $0.5 million.

All Other

The increases in net revenues for our other businesses for the three and six months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding prior year period is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products and new product sales, which were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

The increase in operating profit for the three months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding prior year period, is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products and lower research and development costs, which were partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and the unfavorable impact from a net reduction in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities recorded for the three months ended June 29, 2014.

The decrease in operating profit for the six months ended June 28, 2015, compared to the corresponding prior year period, is primarily attributable to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and the unfavorable impact from a net reduction in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities recorded for the six months ended June 29, 2014. These declines were partially offset by an increase in sales volumes of existing products, lower research and development costs and an increase in new product sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and sales of accounts receivable under our securitization program will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis. We are not aware of any restrictions on repatriation of these funds and, subject to cash payment of additional United States income taxes or foreign withholding taxes, these funds could be repatriated, if necessary. Any additional taxes could be offset, at least in part, by foreign tax credits. The amount of any taxes required to be paid, which could be significant, and the application of tax credits would be determined based on income tax laws in effect at the time of such repatriation. We do not expect any such repatriation to result in additional tax expense as we have provided for taxes on unremitted foreign earnings that we do not consider permanently reinvested.

To date, we have not experienced significant payment defaults by our customers, and we have sufficient lending commitments in place to enable us to fund our anticipated additional operating needs. However, although there have been recent improvements in the domestic and global financial and credit markets, the markets remain volatile, which creates a risk that our customers and suppliers may be unable to access liquidity. Consequently, we continue to monitor our credit risk, particularly related to countries in Europe. As of June 28, 2015, our net current and long-term accounts receivables from publicly funded hospitals in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece were $46.7 million compared to $46.9 million as of December 31, 2014. For the six months ended June 28, 2015, net revenues from these countries were approximately 8% of total net revenues, and average days that current and long-term accounts receivables were outstanding were 230 days. As of both June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014 net current and long-term accounts receivables from these countries were approximately 26.5% and 27.3% of our consolidated net current and long-term accounts receivables, respectively. If economic conditions in these countries deteriorate, we may experience significant credit losses related to the public hospital systems in these countries. Moreover, if global economic conditions generally deteriorate, we may experience further delays in customer payments, reductions in our customers’ purchases and higher credit losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows in 2015 and future years.

Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations provided net cash of approximately $109.6 million for the first six months of 2015 compared to $120.2 million during the first six months of 2014. The $10.6 million decrease is primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by a decline in income taxes payable, an $3.0 million decrease in contributions to domestic pension plans as well as improved operating results over the prior year (excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations). Accounts receivable increased $18.0 million during the six months ended June 28, 2015, as compared to a $0.6 million decrease during the six months ended June 29, 2014, primarily due to increased net revenues in the first six months of 2015 as compared to the first six months in 2014 (excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations) as well as increased collections of receivables during the first six months of 2014 primarily in EMEA. Income taxes payable decreased $8.2 million during the six months ended June 28, 2015 as compared to a $12.5 million decrease during the six months ended June 29, 2014, primarily due to a $3.4 million refund received in Germany in 2015 as well as timing of payments.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $68.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015, reflecting net payments of $37.6 million for the 2015 acquisitions and capital expenditures of $31.2 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 2015, which included proceeds from additional borrowings of $246.0 million principally under our revolving credit facility and $42.1 million of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility. This additional indebtedness was partially offset by repayments of outstanding debt totaling $251.0 million, including the prepayment of our 6.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2019 (the "2019 Notes") totaling $250.0 million using the borrowings from the revolving credit facility and the repayment of $0.9 million under our accounts receivable securitization facility. We incurred debt extinguishment, issuance and amendment fees of $8.7 million, which is primarily the result of a make whole payment in connection with the redemption of the 2019 Notes. We made dividend payments of $28.2 million and contingent consideration payments related to our acquisition of Mini-Lap of $4.0 million. The shared-based compensation activity, which included proceeds from the exercise and vesting of share-based awards under our stock compensation plans and the related excess tax benefits, partially offset by tax withholdings that we remitted on behalf of employees who elect to have shares withheld by us to satisfy their minimum tax withholding obligations arising from the exercise and vesting of their share-based awards, resulted in a net inflow of $4.8 million.

Stock Repurchase Program

In 2007, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases of our stock under the Board authorization may be made from time to time in the open market and may include privately-negotiated transactions as market conditions warrant and subject to regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and our ability to execute on the program will depend on, among other factors, cash requirements for acquisitions, cash generated from operations, debt repayment obligations, market conditions and regulatory requirements. In addition, under our senior credit agreements, we are subject to certain restrictions relating to our ability to repurchase shares in the event our consolidated leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior credit agreements) exceeds certain levels, which may limit our ability to repurchase shares under this Board authorization. Through June 28, 2015, no shares have been purchased under this Board authorization.

Net Debt to Total Capital Ratio

The following table provides our net debt to total capital ratio:



	June 28, 2015			December 31, 2014
	(Dollars in millions)
Net debt includes:
Current borrowings	$	416.0		$	368.4
Long-term borrowings	696.0			700.0
Unamortized debt discount	29.7			36.2
Total debt	1,141.7			1,104.6
Less: Cash and cash equivalents	325.0			303.2
Net debt	$	816.7		$	801.4
Total capital includes:
Net debt	$	816.7		$	801.4
Total common shareholders’ equity	1,917.8			1,911.3
Total capital	$	2,734.5		$	2,712.7
Percent of net debt to total capital	30		%	30		%

On June 1, 2015, we prepaid the $250 million aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Notes. In addition to our prepayment of principal, we paid the holders of the 2019 Notes an $8.6 million prepayment make-whole amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. We used $246.0 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility, $12.1 million in borrowings under our securitization program and available cash to fund the prepayment of the 2019 Notes.

On July 29, 2015, we repaid $50 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility with available cash.

Our 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Convertible Notes”) are convertible under certain circumstances. Since the fourth quarter 2013, our closing stock price has exceeded the 130% threshold described in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements included in this report and, accordingly, the Convertible Notes have been classified as a current liability as of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014. We have elected a net settlement method to satisfy our conversion obligation, under which we may settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash and settle the excess of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes over the principal amount of the notes in shares; however, cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. While we believe we have sufficient liquidity to repay the principal amounts due through a combination of our existing cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility, our use of these funds could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity. The classification of the Convertible Notes as a current liability had no impact on our financial covenants.

Our senior credit agreement and the indentures under which we issued our 5.25% senior notes due 2024 (collectively, the “senior notes”) contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur debt, create liens, consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets, make certain investments, engage in acquisitions, pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of capital stock and enter into swap agreements. Our senior credit agreement also requires us to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, each are defined in our senior credit agreement) of not more than 4.0:1 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense, each as defined in the senior credit agreement) of not less than 3.50:1 as of the last day of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters calculated in accordance with the definitions and methodology set forth in the senior credit agreement. The obligations under the senior credit agreement and the senior notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the senior credit agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a pledge on substantially all of the equity interests owned by us and each guarantor.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards, including estimated effects, if any, on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, intellectual property, contracts, employment and environmental matters. As of June 28, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we have accrued liabilities of approximately $2.6 million and $6.0 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the $2.6 million accrued at June 28, 2015, $1.5 million pertains to discontinued operations. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
