TELEFLEX INC - Annual Report: 2023 (Form 10-K)

Gross profit

$1,646.9 $1,531.1

Percentage of revenues

55.4 %54.9 %

For the year ended December 31, 2023, gross margin increased 50 basis points, or 0.9%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to price increases, benefits from cost improvement initiatives and lower logistics and distribution related costs, partially offset by continued cost inflation from macro-economic factors, specifically with respect to raw materials, and an unfavorable impact on manufacturing productivity due to constraints in raw material supply.

On April 4, 2023, one of our Mexican subsidiaries received a notification from the Mexican Federal Tax Administration Service (“SAT”) setting forth its preliminary findings with respect to a foreign trade operations audit carried out by SAT for the period from July 1, 2017 to June 6, 2019. The preliminary findings stated that our Mexican subsidiary did not evidence the export of goods temporarily imported under Mexico’s Manufacturing, Maquila and Export Services Industries Program (“IMMEX Program”), therefore triggering the potential obligation for payment of import duties, value added tax, customs processing fees and other fines and penalties, which may cause an adverse impact on our gross profit in the future. In response to the notification, our Mexican subsidiary has requested that the matter be referred to the Procuraduría de la Defensa del Contribuyente, or “PRODECON,” (local tax ombudsperson) to help facilitate the process. In June 2023, SAT was provided with the appropriate documentation evidencing the export of the goods in accordance with the requirements of the IMMEX Program.

While we cannot predict with certainty the outcome of this audit, based on currently known information, we do not believe a loss is either probable or estimable. Accordingly, no loss contingency has been recorded in our financial statements as of December 31, 2023 related to this matter. However, if the final resolution of the matter is not favorable to us, our Mexican subsidiary may be required to make payment of certain import duties, fines and surcharges, which could be material.

Selling, general and administrative


Selling, general and administrative	$	929.9		$	863.7
Percentage of revenues	31.3		%	30.9		%

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $66.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher sales expenses across certain of our product portfolios, higher operating expenses incurred by the acquired Palette and Standard Bariatrics businesses, higher performance related employee benefit costs, higher transaction costs stemming from our acquisition of Palette and higher IT related costs. The increases in selling, general and administrative expenses were partially offset by a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities.

Research and development


Research and development	$	154.4		$	153.8
Percentage of revenues	5.2		%	5.5		%

Research and development expenses increased $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to higher project spend within certain of our product portfolios and expenses incurred by Standard Bariatrics, partially offset by lower expenses related to the European Union Medical Device Regulation related costs.

Pension Settlement Charge


Pension settlement charge	$	45.2	$	—

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a settlement charge of $45.2 million related to our plan to terminate the TRIP resulting from payments to eligible participants who elected a lump sum distribution.

Restructuring and impairment charges

2023 Restructuring Plan

During the fourth quarter of 2023, we initiated a new restructuring plan, which primarily involves the integration of Palette into Teleflex and workforce reductions designed to improve operating performance across the organization by creating efficiencies that align with evolving market demands and our strategy to enhance long-term value creation (the “2023 restructuring plan”). We estimate that we will incur $15 million to $19 million in aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the 2023 restructuring plan. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2024.

We expect to begin realizing plan-related savings in 2024 and expect to achieve annual pre-tax savings of $29 million to $35 million once the plan is fully implemented.

2023 Footprint Realignment Plan

In September 2023, we initiated a restructuring plan primarily involving the relocation of certain manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations, the outsourcing of certain manufacturing processes and related workforce reductions (the "2023 Footprint realignment plan"). We estimate that we will incur $11 million to $15 million in aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the 2023 Footprint Realignment plan. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2027.

We expect to begin realizing plan-related savings in 2024 and expect to achieve annual pre-tax savings of $2 million to $4 million once the plan is fully implemented.

2022 Restructuring plan

In November 2022, we initiated a strategic restructuring plan designed to improve operating performance and position the organization to deliver long-term durable growth by creating efficiencies that align with our high growth strategic objectives (the “2022 Restructuring plan”). The plan is substantially complete and as a result, we expect future restructuring expenses associated with the plan, if any, to be immaterial.

Respiratory divestiture plan

In 2021, in connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to separate the manufacturing operations that will be transferred to Medline from those that will remain with Teleflex, which includes related workforce reductions (the “Respiratory divestiture plan”). The plan is substantially complete and as a result, we expect future restructuring expenses associated with the plan, if any, to be immaterial.

The following table provides information regarding restructuring charges we have incurred with respect to each of our restructuring programs, as well as impairment charges, for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The restructuring charges listed in the table primarily consist of termination benefits.

2023 Restructuring plan	$	12.5	$	—
2023 Footprint Realignment Plan	1.5		—
2022 Restructuring plan	3.1		15.5

Impairment charges (1)	—		1.5
Total	$	15.6	$	20.3

(1)For the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded impairment charges of $1.5 million related to our decision to abandon certain assets.

Interest income and expense


Interest expense	$	85.1		$	54.3
Average interest rate on debt during the year	4.4		%	2.8		%
Interest income	$	(12.8)		$	(0.9)

The increase in interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the prior year was primarily due to a higher average interest rate resulting from increases in interest rates associated with our variable interest rate debt instruments and an increase in average debt outstanding.

Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased compared to the prior year primarily due to higher investments in time deposits and money market mutual funds.

Gain on sale of assets and business


Gain on sale of assets and business			$	4.4					$	6.5

During the year ended December 31, 2023, we recognized a gain related to the second phase of the Respiratory divestiture. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized a gain related to a sale of a building.

Loss on extinguishment of debt


Loss on extinguishment of debt			$	—					$	0.5

During the year ended December 31, 2022 we recognized a $0.5 million loss on extinguishment of debt due to the write off of unamortized deferring financing costs related to the amendment of our senior credit facility.

Taxes on income from continuing operations


Effective income tax rate			17.6		%				18.6		%

The effective income tax rate for 2023 was 17.6% compared to 18.6% for 2022. The effective income tax rate for 2023 reflects the impact of deferred charges resulting from a legal entity rationalization and the impact of a non-taxable contingent consideration adjustment recognized in connection with a decrease in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. Additionally, the effective income tax rate for 2023 reflects a tax benefit associated with the TRIP pension settlement charge. The effective income tax rate for 2022 reflects tax expense resulting from a deferred charge relating to the 2022 Restructuring Plan. The effective income tax rates for both 2023 and 2022 reflect tax expense resulting from a U.S. law effective in 2022 requiring capitalization of certain research and development expenditures. Additionally, the effective income tax rates for both 2023 and 2022 reflect a net excess tax benefit related to share-based compensation and a tax benefit from research and development tax credits.

During 2023, a significant number of individual Member States of the EU enacted legislation to establish a 15% global minimum tax in accordance with the Pillar Two EU directive. We continue to evaluate the impact the laws will have on our consolidated results of operations, but based on legislation currently enacted, we do not expect the laws to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Americas

Americas net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $61.7 million, or 3.7%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to a $125.1 million increase in sales of new products, price increases and net revenues generated by the acquired Palette and Standard Bariatrics businesses, partially offset by a $114.5 million decrease in sales volume of existing products. The increase in sales of new products and the decrease in sales of volumes of existing products primarily reflect the conversion to the next generation of an existing product.

Americas operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $1.1 million, or 0.2%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales and price increases and a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities, partially offset by an increase in sales expenses to support higher sales and an increase in operating expenses incurred by the acquired Palette and Standard Bariatrics businesses.

EMEA

EMEA net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $27.8 million, or 5.0%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to $12.1 million in favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, price increases and an increase in sales of new products.

EMEA operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $9.7 million, or 22.9%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to lower expenses related to the European Union Medical Device Regulation within research and development expenses and favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by an increase in sales expenses to support higher sales.

Asia

Asia net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $40.6 million, or 13.2%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to a $25.5 million increase in sales volume of existing products and an $18.8 million increase in sales of new products, partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Asia operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $7.3 million, or 8.8%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales, partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and an increase in sales expenses to support higher sales.

OEM

OEM net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $53.4 million, or 19.6%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to a $28.3 million increase in sales volume of existing products and price increases.

OEM operating profit for the year ended December 31, 2023 increased $20.8 million, or 31.9%, compared to the prior year, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from price increases and higher sales, partially offset by higher research and development expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Our principal source of liquidity is our cash flows provided by operating activities. Our cash flows provided by operating activities are reduced by cash used to, among other things, fulfill contractual obligations for minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases, which often extend beyond one year; the weighted average remaining lease term of our operating lease portfolio is 7.0 years. Our cash flows provided by operating activities are also reduced by cash used for unconditional legally binding commitments to purchase goods or services (i.e., purchase obligations), which are primarily related to inventory expected to be purchased within one year.

Other significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include contractual obligations such as scheduled principal and interest payments with respect to outstanding indebtedness and tax on deemed repatriation of non-U.S. earnings, which will be paid annually over the next three years. We may also be obligated to make payments for contingent consideration due to past acquisitions, the timing and amount of which may be uncertain, and the magnitude of which can vary from year to year. Other significant factors that affect our liquidity include certain actions controlled by management such as capital expenditures, acquisitions, and dividends. See Note 10, Note 12 and Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our revolving credit facility (which is provided for under the Credit Agreement) and accounts receivable securitization facility will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Of our $222.8 million of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2023, $196.7 million was held at non-U.S. subsidiaries. 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.

In October 2023, the agreements related to our cross-currency swaps entered into in 2018 matured resulting in $43.0 million in cash settlement proceeds. On October 2, 2023, we executed new cross-currency swap agreements with six different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate (the "2023 Cross-currency swap agreements"). Under the terms of the new swap agreements, we notionally exchanged $500 million at an interest rate of 4.63% for €474.7 million at an interest rate of 3.05%. The 2023 Cross-currency swap agreements, which expire on October 4, 2025, are designated as net investment hedges and require an exchange of the notional amounts upon expiration or the earlier termination of the agreements.

In December 2023, we entered into a zero cost foreign exchange collar contract that aligns with the notional amount and expiration date of the 2023 Cross-currency swaps. We sold a put option with a lower strike price and bought a call option with a higher strike price to manage the foreign exchange risk related to the final settlement of the $500 million notional cross currency swaps. Upon the execution of the zero cost foreign exchange collar contract, we have de-designated the existing $500 million notional cross-currency swaps and re-designated the combined $500 million notional cross currency swaps and zero cost collar into a new hedging instrument. At re-designation, the existing $500 million notional cross-currency swaps were off-market due to changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The off-market value due to interest rates will be amortized ratably into earnings through October 2025 and the off-market value due to foreign exchange rates will remain in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying net investment is sold. The combined cross-currency swaps and zero cost collar has been designated as a net investment hedge for accounting purposes.

Under the terms of our outstanding Euro cross-currency swap agreements, we notionally exchanged in the aggregate $750 million for €693.9 million. The swap agreements begin to expire in March 2024. We and the counterparties have agreed to effect the exchange through a net settlement. As a result, we may be required to pay (or be entitled to receive) an amount equal to the difference, on the expiration or earlier termination dates, between

the U.S. dollar equivalent of the €693.9 million notional amount and the $750 million notional amount. If, at the expiration or earlier termination of the swap agreements, the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate has increased or decreased by 10% from the rate in effect at the inception of these agreements, we would either receive an aggregate payment of approximately $34.4 million from the counterparties or be required to make an aggregate payment of approximately $75 million to the counterparties in respect of the notional settlement. As of December 31, 2023, we had $16.5 million in current assets and $31.3 million in non-current liabilities related to the fair value of our cross-currency swap agreements. The swap agreements entail risk that the counterparties will not fulfill their obligations under the agreements. However, we believe the risk is reduced because we have entered into separate agreements with different counterparties, all of which are large, well-established financial institutions.

We may at any time, from time to time, repurchase our outstanding debt securities in open market purchases, via tender offers or in privately negotiated transactions, exchange transactions or otherwise, at such price or prices as we deem appropriate. Such purchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors and may be commenced or suspended at any time.

Summarized Financial Information – Obligor Group

The 2027 Notes are issued by Teleflex Incorporated (the “Parent Company”), and payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the 2027 Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by an enumerated group 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. Summarized financial information for the Parent and Guarantor Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Obligor Group”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 is as follows:

The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the summarized financial information presented above. The Intercompany column in the table above represents transactions between and among the Obligor Group and non-guarantor subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries of the Parent Company that have not guaranteed payment of the 2027 Notes). Obligor investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries and any related activity are excluded from the financial information presented above.

See "Financing Arrangements" below as well as Note 10 and Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information related to our borrowings and financial instruments.

Cash Flows

The following table provides a summary of our cash flows for the periods presented:


	Year Ended December 31,
	2023		2022
Cash flows from continuing operations provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	511.7	$	342.8
Investing activities	(621.2)		(259.4)
Financing activities	38.5		(217.5)
Cash flows (used in) provided by discontinued operations	(1.0)		0.8
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	2.8		(19.8)
Decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(69.2)	$	(153.1)

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $511.7 million during 2023, and $342.8 million during 2022. The $168.9 million increase was primarily attributable to lower tax payments, favorable changes in working capital and favorable operating results. The favorable changes in working capital were primarily driven by lower inventory purchases stemming from the build up of inventory in the prior year due to elevated global supply chain volatility.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $621.2 million during 2023, which primarily consisted of $603.9 million in net payments for businesses and intangibles acquired, primarily related to the Palette acquisition, and $91.4 million of capital expenditures, partially offset by $63.1 million in net interest proceeds on swaps designated as net investment hedges and $15.0 million in proceeds from the second phase of the Respiratory divestiture.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $38.5 million during 2023, which primarily consisted of $101.3 million in net proceeds from borrowings resulting from a $600 million draw on our Senior Credit facility to fund the acquisition of Palette, partially offset by payments against the Senior Credit facility. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year also reflects $63.9 million in dividend payments.

For a discussion of our cash flow comparison for 2022 and 2021, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed on February 23, 2023.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations. This financial measure is used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S., or GAAP, and should not be considered a substitute for net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations, the most comparable GAAP financial measure. Management believes that free cash flow is a useful measure to investors because it facilitates an assessment of funds available to satisfy current and future obligations, pay dividends and fund acquisitions. We also use this financial measure for internal managerial purposes and to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Free cash flow is not a measure of cash available for discretionary expenditures since we have certain non-discretionary obligations, such as debt service, that are not deducted from the measure. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. The following is a reconciliation of free cash flow to the most comparable GAAP measure.


	2023		2022
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations	$	511.7	$	342.8
Less: Capital expenditures	91.5		79.2
Free cash flow	$	420.2	$	263.6

Financing Arrangements

Senior credit facility

On November 4, 2022, we amended and restated our existing credit agreement by entering into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) which provides for a five-year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $500.0 million. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to certain exceptions and limitations, by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by us and each guarantor. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility under the Credit Agreement is November 4, 2027.

At our option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted Term Secured Overnight Lending Rate (SOFR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.125% to 2.00% or at an alternate base rate, which is defined as the highest of (i) the “Prime Rate” in the U.S. last quoted by The Wall Street Journal, (ii) 0.50% above the greater of the federal funds rate and the rate comprised of both overnight federal funds and overnight eurodollar transactions denominated in Dollars and (iii) 1.00% above the Term SOFR Rate for a one month interest period, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.125% to 1.00%, in each case subject to adjustments based on our total net leverage ratio. Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00%.

At December 31, 2023, we had $262.0 million in borrowings outstanding and $0.9 million in outstanding standby letters of credit under our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants that, in each case, subject to certain exceptions, qualifications and thresholds, (a) place limitations on us and our subsidiaries regarding the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional liens, fundamental changes, dispositions of property, investments and acquisitions, dividends and other restricted payments, transactions with affiliates, restrictive agreements, changes in lines of business and swap agreements, and (b) require us and our subsidiaries to comply with sanction laws and other laws and agreements, to deliver financial information and certain other information and give notice of certain events, to maintain their existence and good standing, to pay their other obligations, to permit the administrative agent and the lenders to inspect their books and property, to use the proceeds of the Credit Agreement only for certain permitted purposes and to provide collateral in the future. Subject to certain exceptions, we are required to maintain a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.50 to 1.00. We are further required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.50 to 1.00. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants in the Credit Agreement.

2027 and 2028 Senior Notes

As of December 31, 2023, the outstanding principal amount of our 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes (collectively the "Senior Notes") was $500 million, respectively. The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains covenants that, among other things among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to create liens; consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets; and enter into sale leaseback transactions. The obligations under the Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of our existing and future 100% owned domestic subsidiaries that are a guarantor or other obligor under the Credit Agreement and by certain of our other 100% owned domestic subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with all of the terms of our Senior Notes.

Accounts receivable securitization

We have an accounts receivable securitization facility under which we sell an undivided interest in domestic accounts receivable for consideration of up to $75 million to a commercial paper conduit. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we borrowed the maximum amount available of $75 million under this facility. This facility is utilized to provide increased flexibility in funding short term working capital requirements. The agreement governing the accounts receivable securitization facility contains certain covenants and termination events. An occurrence of an event of default or a termination event under this facility may give rise to the right of our counterparty to terminate this facility. As of December 31, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants and none of the termination events had occurred.

For additional information regarding our indebtedness, see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and 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 materially from the amounts derived from those estimates and assumptions.

We have identified the following as critical accounting estimates, which are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are the most pervasive and 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. The following discussion should be considered in conjunction with the description of our accounting policies in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Inventory Utilization

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of estimated net realizable value and whether a reserve is required include (i) current sales data and historical return rates, (ii) estimates of future demand, (iii) competitive pricing pressures, (iv) new product introductions, (v) product expiration dates, and (vi) component and packaging obsolescence.

We review the net realizable value of inventory each reporting period and adjust as necessary. We regularly compare inventory quantities on hand against historical usage or forecasts related to specific items in order to evaluate obsolescence and excessive quantities. In assessing historical usage, we also qualitatively assess business trends to evaluate the reasonableness of using historical information in estimating future usage. Our inventory reserve was $54.3 million and $47.1 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

We assess the remaining useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. For example, such an assessment may be initiated if, as a result of a change in expectations, we believe it is more likely than not that the asset will be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its useful life or if an adverse change occurs in the business employing the asset. Significant judgments in this area involve determining whether such events or circumstances have occurred and determining the appropriate asset group requiring evaluation. The recoverability evaluation is based on various analyses, including undiscounted cash flow projections, which involve significant management judgment. Any impairment loss, if indicated, equals the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

The increased use and the recent FDA approval of glucagon-like peptide 1 ("GLP-1") products for the treatment of chronic weight management has impacted the demand for bariatric surgery procedures and our Titan SGS product line acquired as part of our 2022 acquisition of Standard Bariatrics Inc. Although the long term impact on bariatric procedures from GLP-1 products is uncertain, to the extent GLP-1 products reduce the long term demand for bariatrics surgery procedures and cause their prevalence to differ significantly from management’s expectations, we ultimately may find it necessary to recognize future impairment charges with respect to the related assets, which could be material.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include indefinite-lived assets (such as goodwill, certain trade names and in-process research and development ("IPR&D")), as well as finite-lived intangibles (such as trade names that do not have indefinite lives, customer relationships, intellectual property, distribution rights and non-competition agreements) and are, generally, obtained through acquisition. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value and we allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination to goodwill. Considerable management judgment is necessary in making the assumptions used in the estimated fair value of intangible assets acquired in a business combination.

The costs of finite-lived intangibles are amortized to expense over their estimated useful life. Determining the useful life of an intangible asset requires considerable judgment as different types of intangible assets typically will have different useful lives. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized; we test these

assets annually for impairment during the fourth quarter, using the first day of the quarter as the measurement date, or earlier upon the occurrence of certain events or substantive changes in circumstances that indicate an impairment may have occurred. Such conditions may include an economic downturn in a geographic market or a change in the assessment of future operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill impairment assessments are performed at a reporting unit level. For purposes of this assessment, our reporting units are our operating segments, or, in certain cases, a business one level below our operating segments. As the fair values of our reporting units are more likely than not greater than the carrying values, no impairment was recorded as a result of the annual goodwill impairment testing performed during the fourth quarter of 2023.

In applying the goodwill impairment test, we may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. Qualitative factors may include, but are not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for our products and services, regulatory and political developments, and entity specific factors such as strategies and financial performance. If, after completing the qualitative assessment, we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we proceed to a quantitative impairment test described below. Alternatively, we may test goodwill for impairment through the quantitative impairment test without conducting the qualitative analysis.

Under a quantitative impairment test we compare the fair value of a reporting unit to the carrying value. We calculate the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of two methods; one which estimates the discounted cash flows of the reporting unit based on projected earnings in the future (the Income Approach) and one which is based on revenue and EBITDA of similar businesses to those of the reporting unit in actual transactions (the Market Approach). If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit carrying value exceeds the fair value, we recognize an impairment loss based on the amount the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value.

The more significant judgments and assumptions in determining fair value using in the Income Approach include (1) the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, which are based primarily on our estimates of future sales, operating income, industry trends and the regulatory environment of the individual reporting units, (2) the expected long-term growth rates for each of our reporting units, which approximate the expected long-term growth rate of the global economy and of the medical device industry, and (3) the discount rates that are used to estimate the present value of the future cash flows, which are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the future cash flows of the respective reporting units along with various market based inputs. The more significant judgments and assumptions used in the Market Approach include (1) determination of appropriate revenue and EBITDA multiples used to estimate a reporting unit’s fair value and (2) the selection of appropriate comparable companies to be used for purposes of determining those multiples. There were no changes to the underlying methods used in 2023 as compared to the valuations of our reporting units in the past several years.

Our expected future growth rates estimated for purposes of the goodwill impairment test are based on our estimates of future sales, operating income and cash flow and are consistent with our internal budgets and business plans, which reflect a modest amount of core revenue growth coupled with the successful launch of new products each year; the effect of these growth indicators more than offset volume losses from products that are expected to reach the end of their life cycle. Changes in assumptions underlying the Income Approach could cause a reporting unit's carrying value to exceed its fair value. While we believe our assumed growth rates of sales and cash flows are reasonable, the possibility remains that the revenue growth of a reporting unit may not be as high as expected, and, as a result, the estimated fair value of that reporting unit may decline. In this regard, if our strategy and new products are not successful and we do not achieve anticipated core revenue growth in the future with respect to a reporting unit, the goodwill in the reporting unit may become impaired and, in such case, we may incur material impairment charges. Moreover, changes in revenue and EBITDA multiples in actual transactions from those historically present could result in an assessment that a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, in which case we also may incur material impairment charges.

Other Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are assets acquired that lack physical substance and that meet the specified criteria for recognition apart from goodwill. Management tests indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred. Similar to the goodwill impairment test process, we may assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. If, after completing the

qualitative assessment, we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is greater than its carrying amount, the asset is not impaired. If we conclude it is more likely than not that the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than the carrying value, we then proceed to a quantitative impairment test, which consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying amount. Alternatively, we may elect to forgo the qualitative analysis and test the indefinite-lived intangible asset for impairment through the quantitative impairment test.

In connection with intangible assets acquired in a business combination and quantitative impairment tests, we determine the estimated fair value using various methods under the Income Approach. The more significant judgments and assumptions used in the valuation of intangible assets may include revenue growth rates, royalty rate, obsolescence factor, distributor margin, discount rates, attrition rate, and EBITDA margin. Each of these factors and assumptions can significantly impact the value of the intangible asset.

We did not record any impairment charges related to intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. See "Restructuring and impairment charges" within "Result of Operations" above as well as Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on these charges.

Contingent Consideration Liabilities

In connection with an acquisition, we may be required to pay future consideration that is contingent upon the achievement of specified objectives, such as receipt of regulatory approval, commercialization of a product or achievement of sales targets. In a business combination, we record a contingent liability, as of the acquisition date, representing the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration we expect to pay. We determined the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities related to the Palette and Standard Bariatrics acquisitions, which represented most of our contingent consideration liabilities at December 31, 2023, using a Monte Carlo valuation approach, which simulates future revenues during the earn out-period using management's best estimates. We determined the fair value of our other contingent consideration liabilities using a discounted cash flow analysis. Significant judgment is required in determining the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the contingent consideration. Increases in projected revenues and probabilities of payment may result in significantly higher fair value measurements; decreases in these items may have the opposite effect. Increases in discount rates in the periods prior to payment may result in significantly lower fair value measurements; decreases may have the opposite effect. See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

We remeasure our contingent consideration liabilities each reporting period and recognize the change in the liabilities' fair value within selling, general and administrative expenses in our consolidated statement of income. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we accrued $39.5 million and $44.0 million of contingent consideration, respectively, related to completed business combinations.

If the transaction is determined to be an asset acquisition rather than a business combination, a contingent consideration liability is recognized when the specified objective is deemed probable and is estimable.

Income Taxes

Our annual provision for income taxes and determination of the deferred tax assets and liabilities require management to assess uncertainties, make judgments regarding outcomes and utilize estimates. The difficulties inherent in such assessments, judgments and estimates are particularly challenging because we conduct a broad range of operations around the world, subjecting us to complex tax regulations in numerous international jurisdictions. As a result, we are at times subject to tax audits, disputes with tax authorities and potential litigation, the outcome of which is uncertain. In connection with its estimates of our tax assets and liabilities, management must, among other things, make judgments about the outcome of these uncertain matters.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured and recorded using currently enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases are recovered or settled. The likelihood of a material change in our expected realization of these assets is dependent on future taxable income, our ability to use foreign tax credit carryforwards and carrybacks, final U.S. and non-U.S. tax settlements, changes in tax law, and the effectiveness of our tax planning strategies in the various relevant jurisdictions. While management believes that its judgments and interpretations regarding income taxes are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience may require future adjustments to our tax assets and liabilities, which could be material.

In assessing the realizability of our deferred tax assets, we evaluate positive and negative evidence and use judgments regarding past and future events, including results of operations and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets. Based on this assessment, we determine when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of our deferred tax assets may not be realized, in which case we apply a valuation allowance to offset the amount of such deferred tax assets. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the future, adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $95.7 million and $91.5 million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, relates principally to the uncertainty of the utilization of tax loss and credit carryforwards in various jurisdictions.

Significant judgment is required in determining income tax provisions and in evaluating tax positions. We establish additional provisions for income taxes when, despite the belief that tax positions are supportable, there remain certain positions that do not meet the minimum probability threshold, which is a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority. In the normal course of business, we are examined by various federal, state and non-U.S. tax authorities. We regularly assess the potential outcomes of these examinations and any future examinations for the current or prior years in determining the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. We adjust the income tax provision, the current tax liability and deferred taxes in any period in which we become aware of facts that necessitate an adjustment. We are currently under examination in Germany and Italy. The ultimate outcome of these examinations could result in increases or decreases to our recorded tax liabilities, which would affect our financial results. See Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding our uncertain tax positions.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards, including estimated effects, if any, of the adoption of those standards on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to certain financial risks, specifically fluctuations in market interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, commodity prices. We address these risks through a risk management program that includes the use of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We manage our exposure to counterparty risk on derivative instruments by entering into contracts with a diversified group of major financial institutions and by actively monitoring outstanding positions.

We also are exposed to changes in the market trading price of our common stock as it influences the valuation of stock options and their effect on earnings.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of our borrowing activities and our cash balances. The table below provides information regarding the interest rates by year of maturity for our fixed and variable rate debt obligations. Variable interest rates on the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility on December 31, 2023 were determined using a base rate of the adjusted Term SOFR plus the applicable spread. The variable interest rate on the accounts receivable securitization facility was based on Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index plus the applicable spread.


	Year of Maturity
	2024			2025			2026			2027			2028			Thereafter			Total
Fixed rate debt	$	—		$	—		$	—		$	500.0		$	500.0		$	—		$	1,000.0
Average interest rate	—		%	—		%	—		%	4.625		%	4.250		%	—		%	4.438		%
Variable rate debt	$	87.5		$	25.0		$	25.0		$	687.0		$	—		$	—		$	824.5
Average interest rate	6.392		%	6.706		%	6.706		%	6.706		%	—		%	—		%	6.673		%

A change of 1.0% in variable interest rates would increase or decrease annual interest expense by $8.2 million based on our outstanding debt as of December 31, 2023.

Foreign Currency Risk

The global nature of our operations exposes us to foreign currency risks. These risks include exposure from the effect of fluctuating exchange rates on payables and receivables as well as intercompany loans relating to transactions that are denominated in currencies other than a location’s functional currency and exposure that arises from translating the results of our worldwide operations to the U.S. dollar at exchange rates that have fluctuated from the beginning of a reporting period. Our principal currency exposures relate to the Euro, Chinese Renminbi, Mexican Peso, Malaysia Ringgit, Swedish Krona, Canadian Dollar, Czech Koruna, and British Pound. We utilize foreign currency forward exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap contracts to attempt to minimize our exposure to these risks. Gains and losses on these contracts substantially offset losses and gains on the underlying hedged transactions.

As of December 31, 2023, the total notional amount for the foreign currency forward exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rates swap contracts, expressed in U.S. dollars, was $429.1 million and $770.0 million, respectively. A sensitivity analysis of changes in fair value of these contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2023, while not predictive in nature, indicated that a hypothetical 10% increase/decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar against all currencies would increase the fair value of these contracts by $63.7 million and decrease the fair value of these contracts by $61.6 million, respectively, the majority of which relates to the cross-currency interest rate swap contracts.

See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding the accounting treatment of our foreign currency forward exchange contracts and cross-currency interest rates swap contracts.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A. 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 were 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, however, 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. We acquired Palette on October 10, 2023. Consistent with the guidance provided by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, management has excluded Palette from its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. The net revenues attributable to Palette from the date of acquisition through December 31, 2023, represent, in the aggregate, less than 1% of our consolidated net revenues for the year then ended, and the total assets (excluding goodwill and intangible assets) attributable to Palette represent, in the aggregate, 1% of our consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2023.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management’s report on internal control over financial reporting is set forth on page F-2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

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. In connection with our acquisition of Palette, we are in the process of evaluating the acquired company's internal controls to determine the extent to which modifications to Palette's internal controls would be appropriate.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plans

During the quarter ended December 31, 2023, none of our directors or executive officers , modified or , contracts, instructions or written plans for the sale or purchase of our securities that were intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5-1.

Legal Settlement

As previously disclosed, on June 26, 2023, a putative class action complaint captioned Ayers v. Kelly, C.A. No. 2023-0655-SG (Del. Ch.) was filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Court”) against our Board and the Company (the “Action”). The plaintiff alleged in the complaint that the fixing of the record date more than 60 days before the Company’s annual meeting held on May 5, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”) violated Section 213(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and breached the directors’ fiduciary duties. According to the complaint, because the record date allegedly violated Section 213(a) of the DGCL, the actions taken at the Annual Meeting were invalid. On July 14, 2023, the parties filed a stipulation dismissing the directors as defendants in the Action.

On August 10, 2023, the Company filed a petition in the Court (the “Section 205 Petition”) seeking judicial validation pursuant to Section 205 of the DGCL of two actions approved by stockholders at the Annual Meeting, an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate supermajority voting provisions (the “Charter Amendment”) and the adoption of a stock incentive plan (the “2023 Plan”).

On September 18, 2023, the Court held a hearing on the Section 205 Petition. Following oral argument, the Court entered an Order and Final Judgment declaring valid and effective the Charter Amendment and 2023 Plan as of the date of the Annual Meeting pursuant to 8 Del. C. § 205 (the “Final Order”).

After the Court entered the Final Order on the Section 205 Petition, on October 4, 2023 the Court entered an Order dismissing the Action. The Action was related to, but independent of, the Section 205 Petition and was dismissed as moot upon validation of the Section 205 Petition. The Action was dismissed with prejudice as to the plaintiff named in the Action and was deemed resolved by the Company, other than resolving an anticipated application for an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses from the Action by plaintiff’s attorneys (a “Mootness Fee”). Without admitting any fault or wrongdoing, the Company agreed to pay $300,000 in attorneys’ fees and expenses to the plaintiff’s counsel in the Action as the Mootness Fee to resolve this matter.

On February 20, 2024, the Court entered an order closing the case (the “February Order”), subject to the Company filing an affidavit with the Court confirming compliance with the Court’s February Order. In entering the February Order, the Court did not review, and did not pass judgment on, the payment of these attorneys’ fees and expenses.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company's board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making this assessment, management used the framework established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As a result of this assessment and based on the criteria in the COSO framework, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

The Company acquired Palette Life Sciences AB ("Palette") on October 10, 2023. Management has excluded Palette from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. The net revenues attributable to Palette from the date of acquisition through December 31, 2023, represent, in the aggregate, less than 1% of our consolidated net revenues for the year then ended and total assets (excluding goodwill and intangible assets) attributable to Palette represent, in the aggregate, 1% of our consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2023.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Teleflex Incorporated

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the consolidated financial statements, including the related notes and financial statement schedule, of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Palette Life Sciences, AB (“Palette”) from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023 because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination during 2023. We have also excluded Palette from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Palette is a wholly-owned subsidiary whose total assets and total revenues excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting represent 1% and less than 1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable

F-3

assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Acquisition of Palette - Valuation of Intellectual Property and Trade Names Intangible Assets

As described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the acquisition of Palette on October 10, 2023. The fair value of consideration transferred was $621.9 million, consisting of net cash payments of $594.9 million and $27.0 million in estimated fair value of contingent consideration. Of the identifiable intangible assets acquired, $264.0 million of intellectual property and $40.5 million of trade names intangible assets were recorded. As disclosed by management, intangible assets acquired in a business combination are measured at fair value using various methods under the income approach. The more significant judgments and assumptions used in the valuation of intangible assets may include revenue growth rates, royalty rate, obsolescence factor, distributor margin, discount rates, and EBITDA margin.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of intellectual property and trade names intangible assets related to the acquisition of Palette is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimates of the intellectual property and trade names intangible assets; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the revenue growth rates, royalty rate, obsolescence factor, distributor margin, discount rate, and EBITDA margin used to value the intellectual property intangible asset, and the revenue growth rates, royalty rate, and discount rate used to value the trade names intangible asset; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the acquisition accounting, including controls over management’s valuation of the intellectual property and trade names intangible assets related to the acquisition. These procedures also included, among others (i) reading the purchase agreement and (ii) testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimates of the intellectual property and trade names intangible assets. Testing management’s process included evaluating the appropriateness of the income approach, testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the income approach, and evaluating the reasonableness of the aforementioned significant assumptions. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to the revenue growth rates and EBITDA margin involved considering the current and past performance of the Palette business, the consistency with economic and industry data, and whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the appropriateness of the income approach and the reasonableness of the royalty rate, obsolescence factor, distributor margin, and discount rate assumptions used to value the intellectual property intangible asset and the royalty rate and discount rate assumptions used to value the trade names intangible asset.

%, % and % of our consolidated net revenues, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. With respect to the custom products sold in the OEM segment, revenue is measured using the units produced output method. Payment is generally due 30 days from the date of invoice.

We have made the following revenue accounting policy elections and elected to use certain practical expedients: (1) we account for amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes, net of related amounts remitted to tax authorities; (2) we do not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because, at contract inception, we expect the period between the time when we transfer a promised good or service to the customer and the time when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less; (3) we expense costs to obtain a contract as they are incurred if the expected period of benefit, and therefore the amortization period, is one year or less; (4) we account for shipping and handling activities that occur after control transfers to the customer as a fulfillment cost rather than an additional promised service; (5) we classify shipping and handling costs within cost of goods sold; and (6) with respect to the OEM segment, we have applied the practical expedient to exclude disclosure of remaining performance obligations as the contracts typically have a term of one year or less.

The amount of consideration we receive and revenue we recognize varies as a result of changes in customer sales incentives, including discounts and rebates, and returns offered to customers. The estimate of revenue is adjusted upon the earlier of the following events: (i) the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or (ii) the consideration becomes fixed. Our policy is to accept returns only in cases in which the product is defective and covered under our standard warranty provisions. When we give customers the right to return products, we estimate the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The liability for returns and allowances was $ million and $ million as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In estimating customer rebates, we consider the lag time between the point of sale and the payment of the customer’s rebate claim, customer-specific trend analyses, contractual commitments, including stated rebate rates, historical experience with respect to specific customers (as we have a history of providing similar rebates on similar products to similar customers) and other relevant information. The reserve for customer incentive programs, including customer rebates, was $ million and $ million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We expect the amounts subject to the reserve as of December 31, 2023 to be paid within 90 days subsequent to period-end.

The contingent consideration liability represents the estimated fair value of our obligations, under the acquisition agreement, to make milestone payments up to $ million in aggregate if certain commercial milestones are met. The milestone payments are based on net sales growth over the two-year period beginning January 1, 2024. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo valuation approach. See Note 12 for additional information on the fair value measurement of the contingent consideration. The acquisition was financed using borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand.

The goodwill resulting from the Palette acquisition primarily reflects synergies currently expected to be realized from the integration of the acquired business and is not tax deductible. See Note 17 for additional detail regarding a liability established as part of the Palette acquisition related to certain foreign tax liabilities that had not been properly recognized and paid by Palette prior to our acquisition.

Trade names Customer relationships

For the year ended December 31, 2023, we incurred $ million in transaction expenses associated with the Palette acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of income. We are continuing to evaluate the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition. Additionally, the purchase accounting for this acquisition remains incomplete with respect to the consideration transferred as we have not reached an agreement on the closing statement adjustments with the seller. Adjustments during the measurement period will be recognized in the reporting period when they are settled.

The acquisition included an initial cash purchase price of $ million, with the potential to make milestone payments up to $ million upon achievement of certain commercial milestones. The purchase price was allocated based on the fair values of the assets and liabilities, including goodwill of $ million and intangible assets of $ million.

Divestiture

On May 15, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain product lines within our global respiratory product portfolio (the "Divested respiratory business") to Medline Industries, Inc. (“Medline”) for consideration of $ million, reduced by $ million in working capital not transferring to Medline, which is subject to customary post close adjustments (the "Respiratory business divestiture"). In connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we also entered into several ancillary agreements with Medline to help facilitate the transfer of the business, which provide for transition support, quality, supply and manufacturing services, including a manufacturing and supply transition agreement (the "MSTA").

On June 28, 2021, we completed the initial phase of the Respiratory business divestiture, pursuant to which we received cash proceeds of $ million. On December 4, 2023 we completed the second and final phase of the Respiratory business divestiture with the transfer of certain additional manufacturing assets to Medline, which resulted in $ million of additional cash proceeds and the recognition of a gain on sale of $ million.

Net revenues attributable to our divested respiratory business recognized prior to the Respiratory business divestiture are included within each of our geographic segments and were $ million for the year ended December 31, 2021. Net revenues attributed to services provided to Medline in accordance with the MSTA, which are presented within our Americas reporting segment, were $ million, $ million and $ million for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

2022 restructuring plan

In November 2022, we initiated a strategic restructuring plan designed to improve operating performance and position the organization to deliver long-term durable growth by creating efficiencies that align with our high growth strategic objectives (the “2022 restructuring plan”). The plan is substantially complete and as a result, we expect future restructuring expenses associated with the plan, if any, to be immaterial.

Cross-currency interest rate swaps

During 2019, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements with different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $ million at an annual interest rate of % for € million at an annual interest rate of %.

Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $ million at an annual interest rate of % for € million at an annual interest rate of %. The swap agreements are designated as net investment hedges.

On October 4, 2023, the agreements related to our 2018 Cross-currency swap matured resulting in $ million in cash settlement proceeds. On October 2, 2023, we executed new cross-currency swap agreements with different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate, ("the 2023 Cross-currency swaps"). Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $ million at an annual interest rate of % for € million at an annual interest rate of %. The swap agreements are designated as net investment hedges and expire on October 4, 2025.

In December 2023, we entered into a zero cost foreign exchange collar contract that aligns with the notional amount and expiration date of the 2023 Cross-currency swaps. We sold a put option with a lower strike price and bought a call option with a higher strike price to manage the foreign exchange risk related to the final settlement of the $ million notional cross currency swaps. Upon the execution of the zero cost foreign exchange collar contract, we have de-designated the existing $ million notional cross-currency swaps and re-designated the combined $ million notional cross currency swaps and zero cost collar into a new hedging instrument. At re-designation, the existing $ million notional cross-currency swaps were off-market due to changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The off-market value due to interest rates will be amortized ratably into earnings through October 2025 and the off-market value due to foreign exchange rates will remain in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying net investment is sold. The combined cross-currency swaps and zero cost collar has been designated as a net investment hedge for accounting purposes.

The swap agreements described above require an exchange of the notional amounts upon expiration or earlier termination of the agreements. We and the counterparties have agreed to effect the exchange through a net settlement.

The cross-currency swaps are marked to market at each reporting date and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") while the accrued interest is recognized in interest expense in the statement of operations.

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities into or out of Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the years ended December 31, 2023 or 2022.

Valuation Techniques

Our 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.

Our financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements. We use foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to manage foreign currency transaction exposure as well as exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. We measure the fair value of the foreign currency forward and cross-currency swap agreements 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.

Our financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to our acquisitions.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration liabilities, which primarily consist of payment obligations that are contingent upon the achievement of revenue-based goals, but also can be based on other milestones such as regulatory approvals, are remeasured to fair value each reporting period using assumptions including revenue growth rates (based on internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans), revenue volatility, discount rates, probability of payment and projected payment dates.

We determine the fair value of certain contingent consideration liabilities using a Monte Carlo simulation (which involves a simulation of future revenues during the earn-out period using management's best estimates) or discounted cash flow analysis. Increases in projected revenues, estimated cash flows and probabilities of payment may result in significantly higher fair value measurements; decreases in these items may have the opposite effect. Increases in the discount rates in periods prior to payment may result in significantly lower fair value measurements and decreases in the discount rates may have the opposite effect. As of December 31, 2023, the maximum amount we could be required to pay under the contingent consideration arrangements related to the Palette and Standard Bariatrics acquisitions was $ million.

The effective income tax rate for 2023 was % compared to % for 2022. The effective income tax rate for 2023 reflects the impact of deferred charges resulting from a legal entity rationalization and the impact of a non-taxable contingent consideration adjustment recognized in connection with a decrease in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. Additionally, the effective income tax rate for 2023 reflects a tax benefit associated with the TRIP pension settlement charge. The effective income tax rate for 2022 reflects tax expense resulting from a deferred charge relating to the 2022 Restructuring Plan. The effective income tax rates for both 2023 and 2022 reflect tax expense resulting from a U.S. law effective in 2022 requiring capitalization of certain research and development expenditures. Additionally, the effective income tax rates for both 2023 and 2022 reflect a net excess tax benefit related to share-based compensation and a tax benefit from research and development tax credits.

We are routinely subject to examinations by various taxing authorities. In conjunction with these examinations and as a regular practice, we establish and adjust reserves with respect to its uncertain tax positions to address developments related to those positions. We realized a net benefit of $ million, $ million and $ million in 2023, 2022 and 2021 respectively, as a result of reducing our reserves with respect to uncertain tax positions, principally due to the expiration of a number of applicable statutes of limitations.

A portion of these carryforwards consists of tax losses and credits obtained by us as a result of acquisitions; the utilization of these carryforwards is subject to an annual limitation imposed by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), which limits a company’s ability to deduct prior net operating losses following a more than 50 percent change in ownership. It is not expected that the Section 382 limitation will prevent us ultimately from utilizing the applicable loss carryforwards. The determination of state net operating loss carryforwards is dependent upon the U.S. subsidiaries’ taxable income or loss, the state’s proportion of each subsidiary's taxable net income and the application of state laws, which can change from year to year and impact the amount of such carryforward.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets of $ million and $ million at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, relates principally to the uncertainty of our ability to utilize certain deferred tax assets, primarily tax loss and credit carryforwards in various jurisdictions. The valuation allowance was calculated in accordance with applicable accounting standards, which require that a valuation allowance be established and maintained when it is “more likely than not” that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The discount rate represents the interest rate used to determine the present value of future cash flows currently expected to be required to settle the pension and other benefit obligations. The weighted average discount rates for U.S. pension plans and other benefit plans of % and %, respectively, were established by comparing the projection of expected benefit payments to the AA Above Median yield curve as of December 31, 2023. The expected benefit payments are discounted by each corresponding discount rate on the yield curve. For payments beyond 30 years, we extend the curve assuming that the discount rate derived in year 30 is extended to the end of the plan’s payment expectations. Once the present value of the string of benefit payments is established, we determine the single rate on the yield curve that, when applied to all obligations of the plan, will exactly match the previously determined present value.

As part of the evaluation of pension and other postretirement assumptions, we applied assumptions for mortality and healthcare cost trends that incorporate generational white and blue collar mortality trends. In determining its benefit obligations, we used generational tables that take into consideration increases in plan participant longevity.

Our assumption for the expected return on plan assets is primarily based on the determination of an expected return for its current portfolio. This determination is made using assumptions for return and volatility of the portfolio. Asset class assumptions are set using a combination of empirical and forward-looking analysis. To the extent historical results have been affected by unsustainable trends or events, the effects of those trends are quantified and removed. We apply a variety of models for filtering historical data and isolating the fundamental characteristics of asset classes. These models provide empirical return estimates for each asset class, which are then reviewed and combined with a qualitative assessment of long term relationships between asset classes before a return estimate is finalized. The qualitative analysis is intended to provide an additional means for addressing the effect of unrealistic or unsustainable short-term valuations or trends, resulting in return levels and behavior we believe are more likely to prevail over long periods. Effective in 2023, we changed the expected return on plan assets of the U.S. pension plans from % to % due to modifications to the investment strategy in order to reflect expected return assumptions based on recent capital market movements.

million and $ million for 2023 and 2022, respectively. All of the pension plans had accumulated benefit obligations in excess of their respective plan assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, with the exception of one foreign plan that had plan assets of $ million and $ million in excess of the accumulated benefit obligation as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Our investment objective is to achieve an enhanced long-term rate of return on plan assets, subject to a prudent level of portfolio risk, for the purpose of enhancing the availability of benefits for participants. These investments are comprised of fixed income mutual funds. Our target allocation percentage is % fixed-income securities. Fixed-income funds are held for diversification relative to equities and as a partial hedge of interest rate risk with respect to plan liabilities. The plans may also hold cash to meet liquidity requirements. Actual performance may not be consistent with the respective investment strategies. Investment risks and returns are measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through annual liability measurements and investment portfolio reviews to determine whether the asset allocation targets continue to represent an appropriate balance of expected risk and reward.

million in accrued liabilities and $ million and $ million, respectively in other liabilities relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities, and if adverse changes in circumstances occur, potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of December 31, 2023. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be - years.

Legal matters: We are 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, environmental and other matters. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, we have recorded accrued liabilities of $ million and $ million, respectively, in connection with such contingencies, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters.

Other: In 2015, the Italian parliament enacted legislation that, among other things, imposed a “payback” measure on medical device companies that supply goods and services to the Italian National Healthcare System. Under the measure, companies are required to make payments to the Italian government if medical device expenditures in a given year exceed regional expenditure ceilings established for that year. The payment amounts are calculated based on the amount by which the regional ceilings for the given year were exceeded. Considerable

Subsequent to year end we requested the relevant foreign tax authority to re-assess Palette’s previously filed tax returns for the related periods. If the tax authority disagrees with the basis for our request for reassessment of the previously filed returns and we are unsuccessful in defending our position, we may be required to pay an amount in excess of our current established liability, which could be material.

(1) Segment operating profit includes segment net revenues from external customers reduced by its standard cost of goods sold, adjusted for fixed manufacturing cost absorption variances, selling, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses and an allocation of corporate expenses. Commencing on January 1, 2022, all corporate expenses are allocated amongst the segments in proportion to the respective amounts of net revenues. The change in the measure of segment operating profit does not impact period over period comparability because the change was immaterial. For the year ended December 31, 2021, corporate expenses were allocated among the segments in proportion to the respective amounts of one of several items (such as sales, numbers of employees, and amount of time spent), depending on the category of expense involved.

(2) Unallocated expenses primarily include manufacturing variances other than fixed manufacturing cost absorption variances, restructuring and impairment charges, gain on sale of business and settlement charges related to our plan to terminate the TRIP, as described in Note 16.
