TELEFLEX INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 (all tabular amounts in thousands unless otherwise noted)


Note 1 — Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our" and “Teleflex”) are prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of the financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for the form and content of presentation of financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards and as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in our annual consolidated financial statements. Therefore, our quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Note 2 — Recently issued accounting standards
From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by us as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. We have assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and believe the new guidance will not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
Note 3 — Net revenues
We primarily generate revenue from the sale of medical devices including single use disposable devices and, to a lesser extent, reusable devices, instruments and capital equipment. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; this occurs upon the transfer of control of the products. Generally, transfer of control to the customer occurs at the point in time when our products are shipped from the manufacturing or distribution facility. For our Original Equipment and Development Services ("OEM") segment, most revenue is recognized over time because the OEM segment generates revenue from the sale of custom products that have no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment to the extent that performance has been completed. We market and sell products through our direct sales force and distributors to customers within the following end markets: (1) hospitals and healthcare providers; (2) other medical device manufacturers; and (3) home care providers, which constituted 87%, 11% and 2% of consolidated net revenues, respectively, for the six months ended July 2, 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.

Each of the geographically based reportable segments includes net revenues from each of the non-OEM product categories listed above.
Note 4 — Acquisitions and Divestiture
Acquisition
In the fourth quarter of 2022, we completed the acquisition of Standard Bariatrics, Inc. (“Standard Bariatrics”), a privately-held medical device company that commercialized a powered stapling technology for bariatric surgery that complements our surgical product portfolio. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired Standard Bariatrics for cash payments of $173 million, with the potential to make three milestone payments up to $130 million in the aggregate if certain commercial milestones are met.
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 $286.0 million, reduced by $12 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, the first day of the third quarter of 2021, we completed the initial phase of the Respiratory business divestiture, pursuant to which we received cash proceeds of $259 million. The second phase of the Respiratory business divestiture will occur once we transfer certain additional manufacturing assets to Medline and is expected to occur prior to the end of 2023. We plan to recognize the remaining consideration, and any gain on sale resulting from the completion of the second phase of the divestiture, when it becomes realizable.
Net revenues attributed to services provided to Medline in accordance with the MSTA, which are presented within our Americas reporting segment, were $20.9 million and $40.9 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $20.3 million and $41.4 million for the three and six months ended June 26, 2022, respectively.
Subsequent event
On July 25, 2023, we executed a definitive agreement to acquire Palette Life Sciences AB (“Palette”), a privately held medical device company that sells a portfolio of hyaluronic acid gel-based products primarily utilized in the treatment of urology diseases including a rectal spacing product used in connection with radiation therapy treatment of prostate cancer. The acquisition will complement our interventional urology product portfolio. Under the terms of

TELEFLEX INCORPORATED
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
(Unaudited)

the agreement, we will acquire Palette for an initial cash payment of $600 million, with additional consideration of up to $50 million payable upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2023. We anticipate using borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand to finance the acquisition.
Note 5 — Restructuring and impairment charges
Respiratory divestiture plan
During 2021, in connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to separate the manufacturing operations to be transferred to Medline from those that will remain with Teleflex, which includes related workforce reductions (the “Respiratory divestiture plan”). The plan includes expanding certain of our existing locations to accommodate the transfer of capacity from the sites being transferred to Medline and replicating the manufacturing processes at alternate existing locations. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2023. The following table provides a summary of our cost estimates by major type of expense associated with the Respiratory divestiture plan:
Total estimated amount expected to be incurred
Plan expense estimates:(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring charges (1)
$5 million to $8 million
Restructuring related charges (2)
$19 million to $22 million
Total restructuring and restructuring related charges
$24 million to $30 million
(1) Substantially all of the charges consist of employee termination benefit costs.
(2)Consist of charges that are directly related to the Respiratory divestiture plan and principally constitute costs to transfer manufacturing operations to other locations and project management costs. Substantially all of the charges are expected to be recognized within costs of goods sold.

We recorded restructuring related charges with respect to the Respiratory divestiture plan of $2.0 million and $4.1 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, respectively, and $2.4 million and $4.4 million for the three and six months ended June 26, 2022, respectively. The restructuring related charges were included within cost of goods sold.
As of July 2, 2023, we have incurred net aggregate restructuring expenses related to the Respiratory divestiture plan of $3.5 million. Additionally, as of July 2, 2023, we have incurred net aggregate restructuring related charges in connection with the Respiratory divestiture plan of $16.3 million, which were primarily included in cost of goods sold. As of July 2, 2023, we have a restructuring reserve of $3.5 million in connection with this plan.
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.
Restructuring and impairment charges recognized for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022 consisted of the following:

Note 8 — Financial instruments
Foreign currency forward contracts
We use derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to manage foreign currency transaction exposure. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are used to manage exposure related to near term foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. We enter into the non-designated foreign currency forward contracts for periods consistent with our currency translation exposures, which generally approximate one month. For the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we recognized gains of $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts. For the three and six months ended June 26, 2022, we recognized a gain of $0.1 million and a loss of $3.2 million related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts.
The total notional amount for all open foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of July 2, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $222.3 million and $184.8 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of July 2, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $137.1 million and $152.9 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of July 2, 2023 have durations of 12 months or less.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps
During 2019, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements with five 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 $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.875% for €219.2 million at an annual interest rate of 2.4595%. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on March 4, 2024.
During 2018, we entered into 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. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $500 million at an annual interest rate of 4.625% for €433.9 million at an annual interest rate of 1.942%. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on October 4, 2023.
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"). The following table summarizes the foreign exchange gains and losses recognized within AOCI and the interest benefit recognized within interest expense related to cross currency swap for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 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 our 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 forwards and cross-currency interest rate swaps 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 forwards and cross-currency swaps 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 (inputs that are not observable in the market) 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 estimated revenues (based on internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans), 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.
The table below provides additional information regarding the valuation technique and inputs used in determining the fair value of our significant contingent consideration liabilities.

Note 10 — Shareholders' equity
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:

The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 were 12.2% and 15.9%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 reflects the tax impact of a non-taxable contingent consideration adjustment recognized in connection with a decrease in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended July 2, 2023 reflects an increase in tax expense related to the revaluation of certain U.S. state operating losses and credit carryforwards. The effective income tax rates for all periods reflect a tax benefit from research and development credits and a net-tax benefit related to share-based compensation.

Note 12 — Commitments and contingent liabilities
Environmental: We are subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require us to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by us or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require us to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where we conduct or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.
Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At July 2, 2023, we have recorded $2.5 million and $3.6 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of July 2, 2023. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 10-15 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, product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of July 2, 2023, we have recorded accrued liabilities of $0.6 million 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.
Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.
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 uncertainty exists related to the enforceability of and implementation process for the payback law. In response to decrees issued by the Italian Ministry of Health, the various Italian regions issued invoices to medical device companies, including Teleflex, under the payback measure in the fourth quarter of 2022 seeking payment with respect to excess expenditures for the years 2015 through 2018. Following the issuance of the invoices, we and numerous other medical device companies filed appeals with the Italian administrative courts challenging the enforceability of the payback measure, which appeals remain pending. As of July 2, 2023, our reserve for this matter was $12.6 million, of which, $1.5 million was recorded as a reduction of revenue in 2023. If the payback was to ultimately be enforced in its existing form, we estimate that we would be required to remit payments in excess of our current reserve of up to $18.6 million.
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. 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, 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 July 2, 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.
Tax audits and examinations: We are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of July 2, 2023, the most significant tax examinations in process were in Ireland and Germany. We may establish reserves with respect to our uncertain tax positions, after we adjust the reserves to address developments with respect to our uncertain tax positions, including developments in these tax examinations. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to our recorded tax liabilities, which could impact our financial results.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Teleflex Incorporated (“we,” “us,” “our" and “Teleflex”) is a global provider of medical technology products focused on enhancing clinical benefits, improving patient and provider safety and reducing total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure. We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies.
We evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to divest businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we may seek to optimize utilization of our facilities through restructuring initiatives designed to further improve our cost structure and enhance our competitive position. We also may continue to explore opportunities to expand the size of our business and improve operating margins through a combination of acquisitions and distributor to direct sales conversions, which generally involve our elimination of a distributor from the sales channel, either by acquiring the distributor or terminating the distributor relationship (in some instances, particularly in Asia, the conversions involve our acquisition or termination of a master distributor and the continued sale of our products through sub-distributors or through new distributors). Distributor to direct sales conversions are designed to facilitate improved product pricing and more direct access to the end users of our products within the sales channel.
In May 2023, our Board of Directors approved the termination of the Teleflex Incorporated Retirement Income Plan (the “TRIP”), a U.S. defined benefit plan, effective as of August 1, 2023. The TRIP is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and is intended to be tax-qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). Participation in and accrual of benefits under the TRIP have been frozen since 2012, and, as of July 2, 2023, the TRIP assets exceeded the liabilities. In June 2023, we notified participants of our intent to terminate the TRIP and requested a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) stating that the TRIP satisfies the requirements, in form, to be tax-qualified under Code Section 401(a) upon termination. Because the TRIP is an ERISA plan, the termination is subject to approval by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”). While we expect to proceed with the termination, we may decide not to proceed for certain reasons including, for example, if the cost to terminate the TRIP exceeds our current expectations. Should we proceed with the termination, participants will receive their full accrued benefits from TRIP assets, and we plan to offer participants who have not started their TRIP benefits an opportunity to elect to receive their benefits in the form of a lump sum distribution or to commence their benefits in the form of monthly annuity payments in connection with the termination of the TRIP. After the termination has been approved by the PBGC, one or more annuity contracts with a qualifying insurer(s) will be purchased to provide TRIP benefits that have not already been distributed.
Upon settlement of the TRIP we are required to remeasure the plan assets and obligation and will recognize a settlement loss for the recognition of the unrecognized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income including the effects of the remeasurement. As of July 2, 2023, the pre-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the TRIP was approximately $200 million. We expect to recognize a portion of the settlement charge during the fourth quarter of 2023, when eligible participants who elect the lump sum option receive their payments, and we expect to recognize the remainder of the settlement charge upon annuitization of the TRIP benefits, which we expect to occur during 2024.
Subsequent event
On July 25, 2023, we executed a definitive agreement to acquire Palette Life Sciences AB (“Palette”), a privately held medical device company that sells a portfolio of hyaluronic acid gel-based products primarily utilized in the treatment of urology diseases including a rectal spacing product used in connection with radiation therapy treatment of prostate cancer. The acquisition will complement our interventional urology product portfolio. Under the terms of the agreement, we will acquire Palette for an initial cash payment of $600 million, with additional consideration of up to $50 million payable upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones. The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2023. We anticipate using borrowings under our revolving credit facility and cash on hand to finance the acquisition.

Results of Operations
As used in this discussion, "new products" are products for which commercial sales have commenced within the past 36 months, and “existing products” are products for which commercial sales commenced more than 36 months ago. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired and/or divested businesses or assets (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions and/or divestitures within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition and/or divestiture. In addition to increases and decreases in the per unit selling prices of our products to our customers, our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases also reflects the impact on the pricing of our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor, either through acquisition or termination of the distributor, from the sales channel. All of the dollar amounts in the tables are presented in millions unless otherwise noted.
Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.

Net revenues$743.3 $704.5 $1,454.2 $1,346.3 
Net revenues for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $38.8 million, or 5.5%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $49.1 million increase in sales of new products and price increases, partially offset by a $31.3 million decrease in sales volume of existing products.
Net revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $107.9 million, or 8.0%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to a $112.1 million increase in sales of new products and price increases. The increase in net revenues was partially offset by a $28.2 million decrease in sales volume of existing products, notwithstanding the impact of a five-day increase in the number of shipping days during the six months ended July 2, 2023 and, to a lesser extent, unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Gross margin for the three months ended July 2, 2023 decreased 30 basis points, or 0.5%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to continued cost inflation from macro-economic factors, specifically, raw materials and labor costs, an increase in costs associated with product recalls and quality issues and an unfavorable impact on manufacturing productivity due to raw material supply. The decrease in gross profit was partially offset by price increases, lower logistics and distribution related costs and benefits from cost improvement initiatives.
Gross margin for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased 40 basis points, or 0.7%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to price increases, lower logistics and distribution related costs and benefits from cost improvement initiatives, partially offset by continued cost inflation from macro-economic factors, specifically, raw materials, an increase in costs associated with product recalls and quality issues and an unfavorable impact on manufacturing productivity due to 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. 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, 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
19


financial statements as of July 2, 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.

Percentage of sales30.0 %30.8 %31.4 %31.3 %
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $6.5 million, compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher sales expenses across certain of our product portfolios, higher operating expenses incurred by acquired businesses, primarily Standard Bariatrics and higher IT related costs, partially offset by a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $35.2 million, compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher sales and marketing expenses across certain of our product portfolios, higher operating expenses incurred by acquired businesses, primarily Standard Bariatrics and higher IT related costs. The increases in selling, general and administrative expenses were partially offset by favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities.

Percentage of sales5.3 %5.2 %5.6 %5.4 %
The increases in research and development expenses for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the prior year period were 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.

Restructuring charges for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 primarily consisted of termination benefits related to the 2022 Restructuring plan (defined below).
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
We have an ongoing restructuring plan, initiated in connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, designed to separate the manufacturing operations to be transferred to Medline from those that will remain with Teleflex (the “Respiratory divestiture plan”). We estimate that we will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges in connection with the Respiratory divestiture plan of $24 million to $30 million.
For additional information regarding our restructuring plans, refer to Note 5 within the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.

Average interest rate on debt4.1 %2.3 %4.0 %2.2 %
The increases in interest expense for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 compared to the prior year period were primarily due to higher average interest rates resulting from increases in interest rates associated with our variable interest rate debt instruments partially offset by a decrease in average debt outstanding.

The effective income tax rate for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 reflects the tax impact of a non-taxable contingent consideration adjustment recognized in connection with a decrease in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended July 2, 2023 reflects an increase in tax expense related to the revaluation of certain U.S. state operating losses and credit carryforwards. The effective income tax rates for all periods reflect a tax benefit from research and development credits and a net-tax benefit related to share-based compensation.

Comparison of the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 and June 26, 2022
Americas
Americas net revenues for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $12.0 million, or 2.9%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $45.3 million increase in sales of new products and price increases and, to a lesser extent, net revenues generated by Standard Bariatrics. The increase in net revenues was partially offset by a $45.1 million decrease in sales volume of existing products.
Americas net revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $45.8 million, or 5.8%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $100.0 million increase in sales of new products, price increases and, to a lesser extent, net revenues generated by Standard Bariatrics. The increase in net revenues was
21


partially offset by a $74.2 million decrease in sales volume of existing products, notwithstanding the impact of a five-day increase in the number of shipping days during the six months ended July 2, 2023.
Americas operating profit for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $1.8 million, or 1.6%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from price increases and a decrease in contingent consideration expense resulting from changes in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. The increase in operating profit was partially offset by an increase in sales expenses to support higher sales.
Americas operating profit for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $3.5 million, or 1.7%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales and price increases, partially offset by an increase in sales expenses to support higher sales and an increase in research and development expenses across certain of our product portfolios.
EMEA
EMEA net revenues for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $2.6 million, or 1.8%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to price increases, favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, an increase in sales of new products, partially offset by a $3.2 million decrease in sales volume of existing products.
EMEA net revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $9.1 million, or 3.2%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $7.0 million increase in sales volume of existing products reflecting, in part, the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days, and price increases and, to a lesser extent, an increase in sales of new products. The increase in net revenues was partially offset by $5.5 million of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
EMEA operating profit for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $0.4 million, or 2.9%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and lower expenses related to the European Union Medical Device Regulation within research and development expenses, partially offset by a decrease in gross profit due to higher manufacturing costs resulting from continued cost inflation.
EMEA operating profit for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $4.1 million, or 18.6%, compared to the prior year period, 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.
Asia
Asia net revenues for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $10.1 million, or 13.1%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $9.2 million increase in sales volume of existing products, an increase in sales of new products and, to a lesser extent, price increases, partially offset by $3.8 million of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Asia net revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $19.6 million, or 13.5%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $16.3 million increase in sales volume of existing products and a $9.5 million increase in sales of new products, partially offset by $8.9 million of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Asia operating profit for the three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $1.6 million, or 7.7%, compared to the prior year period, 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.
Asia operating profit for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $5.2 million, or 13.5%, compared to the prior year period, 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 three months ended July 2, 2023 increased $14.1 million, or 20.2%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $7.7 million increase in sales volume of existing products and price increases.
OEM net revenues for the six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $33.4 million, or 26.2%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $22.7 million increase in sales volume of existing products and price increases.
OEM operating profit for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 increased $6.0 million, or 33.3%, and $15.0 million, or 52.4%, respectively, compared to the prior year period, 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 and sales expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $170.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023 as compared to $101.9 million for the six months ended June 26, 2022. The $68.7 million increase was primarily attributable to lower tax payments and favorable changes in working capital. The favorable changes in working capital were primarily driven by higher accounts receivable collections compared to the prior year, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses from higher payments related to restructuring plans.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $29.2 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023, and primarily consisted of capital expenditures of $39.4 million, partially offset by net interest proceeds on swaps designated as net investment hedges of $10.3 million.

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $186.0 million for the six months ended July 2, 2023, and primarily consisted of a $154.5 million reduction in borrowings and $31.9 million in dividend payments.
In anticipation of the expected completion of the Palette acquisition, we drew $600 million in additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility in July 2023.
Borrowings
The indentures governing our 4.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and 4.25% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes") contain covenants that, 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. As of July 2, 2023, we were in compliance with these requirements.
The obligations under our senior credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), the 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the Credit Agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by us and each guarantor.
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 Senior 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
23


Guarantor Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Obligor Group”) as of July 2, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and for the six months ended July 2, 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, 2022 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 Senior Notes). Obligor investments in non-guarantor subsidiaries and any related activity are excluded from the financial information presented above.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.
New Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance, including estimated effects, if any, of adoption of the guidance on our financial statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers; delays or cancellations in shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; the impact of inflation and disruptions
24


in our global supply chain on us and our suppliers (particularly sole-source suppliers and providers of sterilization services), including fluctuations in the cost and availability of resins and other raw materials, as well as certain components, used in the production or sterilization of our products, transportation constraints and delays, product shortages, energy shortages or increased energy costs, labor shortages in the United States and elsewhere, and increased operating and labor costs; our inability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with our expectations; our inability to effectively execute our restructuring programs; our inability to realize anticipated savings resulting from restructuring plans and programs; the impact of enacted healthcare reform legislation and proposals to amend, replace or repeal the legislation; changes in Medicare, Medicaid and third party coverage and reimbursements; the impact of tax legislation and related regulations; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; global economic factors, including currency exchange rates, interest rates, trade disputes, sovereign debt issues, and international conflicts and hostilities, such as the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine; public health epidemics including the novel coronavirus (referred to as COVID-19); difficulties entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise explicitly stated by us or as required by law or regulation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of July 2, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had accrued liabilities of approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that the outcome of any outstanding lawsuits or claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended July 2, 2023.

Item 5. Other Information

10b5-1 Plan

On May 9, 2023, Cameron Hicks, our Corporate Vice President and Chief Human Resources Officer, adopted a trading plan for the sale of shares of our common stock, which plan is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense conditions of Rule 10b5–1(c) (a “10b5-1 Plan”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The 10b5-1 Plan provides for the sale in the open market of up to 3,001 shares of our common stock issuable to Mr. Hicks upon the exercise of stock options with expiration dates within the next two years. The 10b5-1 Plan calls for the sales to be completed during a period beginning on August 8, 2023 and ending on May 9, 2024.

Certificate of Incorporation

At our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 5, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Meeting”), our stockholders approved, among other things, a proposal to eliminate the supermajority voting provisions from our certificate of incorporation (the “Supermajority Elimination Amendment”). The proposal is described more fully in our definitive proxy statement for the 2023 Annual Meeting, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023, and the voting results from the meeting are set forth in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 11, 2023. The record date established for the 2023 Annual Meeting was March 3, 2023, which exceeded by one business day the maximum of 60 days by which a record date is permitted to precede a meeting of stockholders under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and our Amended and Restated Bylaws. We intend to seek the approval of the Delaware Court of Chancery, pursuant to Section 205 of the DGCL, to validate and declare effective the approval of the Supermajority Elimination Amendment, as well as the other matters considered and approved by our stockholders at the 2023 Annual Meeting. We will provide further information regarding this process as the proceeding under Section 205 moves forward.
