Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Henry Schein, Inc. and all of our

controlled subsidiaries (“we”, “us” or “our”). All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in

consolidation. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates in which we have the ability to influence the operating or

financial decisions are accounted for under the equity method. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified

to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications, individually and in the aggregate, did not

have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and

with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the

information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited

consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report

on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and with the information contained in our other publicly-

available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The condensed consolidated financial statements

reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations and

financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United

States requires us 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. The results of

operations for the three months ended April 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for

any other interim period or for the year ending December 30, 2023.

We consolidate the results of operations and financial position of a trade accounts receivable securitization which

we consider a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) because we are the primary beneficiary, and we have the power to

direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance and have the obligation to absorb the

majority of the losses or benefits. For this VIE, the trade accounts receivable transferred to the VIE are pledged as

collateral to the related debt. The creditors have recourse to us for losses on these trade accounts receivable. At

April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, certain trade accounts receivable that can only be used to settle obligations

of this VIE were $

555

 million and $

327

 million, respectively, and the liabilities of this VIE where the creditors

have recourse to us were $

420

 million and $

255

 million, respectively.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by us that affect, among

other things, our goodwill, long-lived asset and definite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; equity

investment valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income

tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; hedging activity; supplier rebates; measurement of

compensation cost for certain share-based performance awards and cash bonus plans; and pension plan

assumptions. There is an ongoing risk that the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic may again have a

material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows and may result in a material adverse

effect on our financial condition and liquidity. However, the extent of the potential impact cannot be reasonably

estimated at this time

Note 2 – Critical Accounting Policies, Accounting Pronouncements Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting

Standards

Critical Accounting Policies 

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended April 1,

2023, as compared to the critical accounting policies described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for

the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update

(“ASU”) No. 2022-04, “Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance

Program Obligations,” which will increase transparency of supplier finance programs by requiring entities that use

such programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative

information about such programs. ASU 2022-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022,

including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for amended roll forward information, which is effective

for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will

have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the

Sunset Date of Topic 848,” which extends the period of application of temporary optional expedients from

December 21, 2022 to December 31, 2024. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will have a

material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 5

Business Acquisitions

In connection with our business acquisitions, the major classes of assets and liabilities to which we generally

allocate acquisition consideration to, excluding goodwill, include identifiable intangible assets (i.e., customer

relationships and lists, trademarks and trade names, product development and non-compete agreements), inventory

and accounts receivable. The estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on critical judgments

and assumptions derived from analysis of market conditions, including discount rates, projected revenue growth

rates (which are based on historical trends and assessment of financial projections), estimated customer attrition and

projected cash flows. These assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market

conditions.

While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the

acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and

subject to refinement. As a result, within 12 months following the date of acquisition, or the measurement period,

we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill

within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. At the end of the measurement period or final determination of

the values of such assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are

recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The accounting for certain of our acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2022 had not been completed in

several areas, including but not limited to pending assessments of intangible assets, and contingent consideration

assets and liabilities. For the three months ended April 1, 2023 and March 26, 2022, there were no material

adjustments recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of income relating to changes in estimated values of

assets acquired, liabilities assumed and contingent consideration assets and liabilities.

2023 Acquisitions

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we acquired the majority of a company within the health care

distribution segment. The impact of this acquisition was not considered material to our condensed consolidated

financial statements.

The following table aggregates the estimated fair value, as of the date of acquisition, of consideration paid and net

assets acquired for the acquisition during the three months ended April 1, 2023.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly

transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between

(1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable

inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best

information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs).

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices

in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

• Level 1— Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the

measurement date.

• Level 2— Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,

either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted

prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by

observable market data by correlation or other means.

• Level 3— Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

The following section describes the fair values of our financial instruments and the methodologies that we used to

measure their fair values. 

Investments and notes receivable

There are no quoted market prices available for investments in unconsolidated affiliates and notes receivable. 

Certain of our notes receivable contain variable interest rates. We believe the carrying amounts are a reasonable

estimate of fair value based on the interest rates in the applicable markets. 

Debt

The fair value of our debt (including bank credit lines, current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt) is

classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, and as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was estimated

at $

1,312

 million and $

1,149

 million, respectively. Factors that we considered when estimating the fair value of

our debt include market conditions, such as interest rates and credit spreads.

Derivative contracts

Derivative contracts are valued using quoted market prices and significant other observable inputs. We use

derivative instruments to minimize our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our derivative

instruments primarily include foreign currency forward agreements related to certain intercompany loans, certain

forecasted inventory purchase commitments with foreign suppliers, foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a

portion of our euro-denominated foreign operations which are designated as net investment hedges and a total

return swap for the purpose of economically hedging our unfunded non-qualified supplemental executive retirement

plan and our deferred compensation plan.

The fair values for the majority of our foreign currency derivative contracts are obtained by comparing our contract

rate to a published forward price of the underlying market rates, which is based on market rates for comparable

transactions and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

15

Total Return Swaps

The fair value for the total return swap is measured by valuing the underlying exchange traded funds of the swap

using market-on-close pricing by industry providers as of the valuation date and are classified within Level 2 of the

fair value hierarchy.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests

The values for redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are

based on recent transactions and/or implied multiples of earnings.

 See

 for additional information.

Assets measured on a non-recurring basis at fair value include Goodwill and Other intangibles, net, and are

classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring

basis classified under the appropriate level of the fair value hierarchy as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Revolving Credit Agreement

On

August 20, 2021

, we entered into a $

1.0

 billion revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). This

facility, which matures on

August 20, 2026

 replaced our $

750

 million revolving credit facility which was scheduled

to mature in April 2022. The interest rate is based on the USD LIBOR plus a spread based on our leverage ratio at

the end of each financial reporting quarter. Most LIBOR rates have been discontinued after December 31, 2021,

while the remaining LIBOR rates will be discontinued immediately after June 30, 2023. We do not expect the

discontinuation of LIBOR as a reference rate in our debt agreements to have a material adverse effect on our

financial position or to materially affect our interest expense. The Credit Agreement requires, among other things,

that we maintain certain maximum leverage ratios. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains customary

representations, warranties and affirmative covenants as well as customary negative covenants, subject to

negotiated exceptions, on liens, indebtedness, significant corporate changes (including mergers), dispositions and

certain restrictive agreements. As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had

no

 borrowings under this

revolving credit facility, and there were $

9

 million and $

9

 million of letters of credit, respectively, provided to third

parties under the credit facility.

Other Short-Term Bank Credit Lines

As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had various other short-term bank credit lines available, with a

maximum borrowing capacity of $

404

 million and $

402

 million, respectively. As of April 1, 2023 and December

31, 2022, $

236

 million and $

103

 million, respectively, were outstanding. At April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022,

borrowings under all of these credit lines had a weighted average interest rate of

Private Placement Facilities

Our private placement facilities include

four

 insurance companies, have a total facility amount of $

1.5

 billion, and

are available on an uncommitted basis at fixed rate economic terms to be agreed upon at the time of issuance, from

time to time through

October 20, 2026

. The facilities allow us to issue senior promissory notes to the lenders at a

fixed rate based on an agreed upon spread over applicable treasury notes at the time of issuance. The term of each

possible issuance will be selected by us and can range from

five

 to

15 years

 (with an average life no longer than

12

years

). The proceeds of any issuances under the facilities will be used for general corporate purposes, including

working capital and capital expenditures, to refinance existing indebtedness, and/or to fund potential acquisitions. 

The agreements provide, among other things, that we maintain certain maximum leverage ratios, and contain

restrictions relating to subsidiary indebtedness, liens, affiliate transactions, disposal of assets and certain changes in

ownership. These facilities contain make-whole provisions in the event that we pay off the facilities prior to the

applicable due dates.

U.S. Trade Accounts Receivable Securitization

We have a facility agreement based on the securitization of our U.S. trade accounts receivable that is structured as

an asset-backed securitization program with pricing committed for up to

three years

. This facility agreement has a

purchase limit of $

450

 million with

two

 banks as agents, expires on

December 15, 2025

.

As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the borrowings outstanding under this securitization facility were $

360

million and $

330

 million, respectively. At April 1, 2023, the interest rate on borrowings under this facility was

based on the asset-backed commercial paper rate of

4.99

% plus

0.75

%, for a combined rate of

5.74

%. At

December 31, 2022, the interest rate on borrowings under this facility was based on the asset-backed commercial

paper rate of

4.58

% plus

0.75

%, for a combined rate of

5.33

%.

If our accounts receivable collection pattern changes due to customers either paying late or not making payments,

our ability to borrow under this facility may be reduced.

We are required to pay a commitment fee of

30

 to

35

 basis points depending upon program utilization.

Note 8 – Income Taxes

For the three months ended April 1, 2023 our effective tax rate was

23.8

% compared to

24.0

% for the prior year

period. The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory tax rate primarily relates to state and

foreign income taxes and interest expense as well as stock-based compensation.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which are included in “other liabilities” within our condensed

consolidated balance sheets, as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $

95

 million and $

94

 million,

respectively, of which $

80

 million and $

80

 million, respectively, would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. 

It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months, which may result in a

material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income.

All tax returns audited by the IRS are officially closed through 2018. The tax years subject to examination by the

IRS include years 2019 and forward. In addition, limited positions reported in the 2017 tax year are subject to IRS

examination. During the quarter ended December 25, 2021, we were notified by the IRS that tax year 2019 was

selected for examination.

The total amounts of interest and penalties are classified as a component of the provision for income taxes. The

amount of tax interest expense was $

1

 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and $

1

 million for the three

months ended March 26, 2022. The total amount of accrued interest is included in “other liabilities,” and was $

Note 9 – Plan of Restructuring

On August 1, 2022, we committed to a restructuring plan focused on funding the priorities of the strategic plan and

streamlining operations and other initiatives to increase efficiency. We expect this initiative to extend through

2023. We are currently unable in good faith to make a determination of an estimate of the amount or range of

amounts expected to be incurred in connection with these activities, both with respect to each major type of cost

associated therewith and with respect to the total cost, or an estimate of the amount or range of amounts that will

result in future cash expenditures.

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded restructuring costs of $

30

 million primarily related to

severance and employee-related costs, accelerated amortization of right-of-use lease assets and fixed assets, and

other lease exit costs. This amount also includes $

1

 million related to the disposal of an unprofitable U.S. business,

initiated during 2022 and completed during the three months ended April 1, 2023.

Restructuring costs recorded for the three months ended April 1, 2023 consisted of the following (there were

Note 10 – Legal Proceedings

Henry Schein, Inc. has been named as a defendant in multiple opioid related lawsuits (currently less than one-

hundred and seventy-five (

175

); one or more of Henry Schein, Inc.’s subsidiaries is also named as a defendant in a

number of those cases). Generally, the lawsuits allege that the manufacturers of prescription opioid drugs engaged

in a false advertising campaign to expand the market for such drugs and their own market share and that the entities

in the supply chain (including Henry Schein, Inc. and its affiliated companies) reaped financial rewards by refusing

or otherwise failing to monitor appropriately and restrict the improper distribution of those drugs. These actions

consist of some that have been consolidated within the MultiDistrict Litigation (“MDL”) proceeding In Re National

Prescription Opiate Litigation (MDL No. 2804; Case No. 17-md-2804) and are currently stayed, and others which

remain pending in state courts and are proceeding independently and outside of the MDL. At this time, the

following cases are set for trial: the action filed by DCH Health Care Authority, et al. in Alabama state court, which

has been designated a bellwether with

eight

 of

thirty-eight

 plaintiffs set for a jury trial on July 24, 2023; and the

action filed by Florida Health Sciences Center, Inc. (and

38

 other hospitals located throughout the State of Florida)

in Florida state court, which is currently scheduled for a jury trial in May 2025. Of Henry Schein’s 2022 net sales

of approximately $

12.6

 billion from continuing operations, sales of opioids represented less than

two-tenths

 of 1

percent. Opioids represent a negligible part of our business. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously against

these actions.

In August 2022, Henry Schein received a Grand Jury Subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office for the

Western District of Virginia, seeking documents in connection with an investigation of possible violations of the

Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act by Butler Animal Health Supply, LLC (“Butler”), a former subsidiary of

Henry Schein. The investigation relates to the sale of veterinary prescription drugs to certain customers. In

October 2022, Henry Schein received a second Grand Jury Subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office for

the Western District of Virginia. The October Subpoena seeks documents relating to payments Henry Schein

received from Butler or Covetrus, Inc. (“Covetrus”). Butler was spun off into a separate company and became a

subsidiary of Covetrus in 2019 and is no longer owned by Henry Schein. We are cooperating with the

investigation.

From time to time, we may become a party to other legal proceedings, including, without limitation, product

liability claims, employment matters, commercial disputes, governmental inquiries and investigations (which may

in some cases involve our entering into settlement arrangements or consent decrees), and other matters arising out

of the ordinary course of our business. While the results of any legal proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty,

in our opinion none of these other pending matters are currently anticipated to have a material adverse effect on our

consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

As of April 1, 2023, we had accrued our best estimate of potential losses relating to claims that were probable to

result in liability and for which we were able to reasonably estimate a loss. This accrued amount, as well as related

expenses, was not material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Our method for

determining estimated losses considers currently available facts, presently enacted laws and regulations and other

factors, including probable recoveries from third parties.

Note 11 – Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based awards are provided to certain employees under the terms of our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and to

non-employee directors under the terms of our 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan (together, the

“Plans”). The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the

“Compensation Committee”). Historically, equity-based awards to our employees have been granted solely in the

form of time-based and performance-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with the exception of our 2021 plan year

in which non-qualified stock options were issued in place of performance-based RSUs. In 2022, we granted time-

based and performance-based RSUs, as well as non-qualified stock options. For our 2023 plan year, we returned to

granting our employees equity-based awards solely in the form of time-based and performance-based RSUs. Our

non-employee directors receive equity-based awards solely in the form of time-based RSUs.

RSUs are stock-based awards granted to recipients with specified vesting provisions. In the case of RSUs, common

stock is delivered on or following satisfaction of vesting conditions. We issue RSUs to employees that primarily

vest (i) solely based on the recipient’s continued service over time, primarily with

four

-year cliff vesting and/or (ii)

based on achieving specified performance measurements and the recipient’s continued service over time, primarily

with

three

-year cliff vesting. RSUs granted to our non-employee directors primarily are granted with

12

-month

cliff vesting. For these RSUs, we recognize the cost as compensation expense on a straight-line basis.

With respect to time-based RSUs, we estimate the fair value based on our closing stock price on the date of

grant. With respect to performance-based RSUs, the number of shares that ultimately vest and are received by the

recipient is based upon our performance as measured against specified targets over a specified period, as

determined by the Compensation Committee. Although there is no guarantee that performance targets will be

achieved, we estimate the fair value of performance-based RSUs based on our closing stock price at time of grant.

Each of the Plans provide for certain adjustments to the performance measurement in connection with awards under

the Plans. With respect to the performance-based RSUs granted under our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, such

performance measurement adjustments relate to significant events, including, without limitation, acquisitions,

divestitures, new business ventures, certain capital transactions (including share repurchases), differences in

budgeted average outstanding shares (other than those resulting from capital transactions referred to above),

restructuring costs, if any, certain litigation settlements or payments, if any, changes in accounting principles or in

applicable laws or regulations, changes in income tax rates in certain markets, foreign exchange fluctuations, the

financial impact either positive or negative, of the difference in projected earnings generated by COVID-19 test kits

(solely with respect to performance-based RSUs granted in the 2022 and 2023 plan years) and impairment charges

(solely with respect to performance-based RSUs granted in the 2023 plan year), and unforeseen events or

circumstances affecting us.

Over the performance period, the number of shares of common stock that will ultimately vest and be issued and the

related compensation expense is adjusted upward or downward based upon our estimation of achieving such

performance targets. The ultimate number of shares delivered to recipients and the related compensation cost

recognized as an expense will be based on our actual performance metrics as defined under the Plans.

Stock options are awards that allow the recipient to purchase shares of our common stock at a fixed price following

vesting of the stock options. Stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to our closing stock price on the

date of grant. Stock options issued in 2021 and 2022 vest

one-third

 per year based on the recipient’s continued

service, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, are fully vested

three years

 from the

grant date and have a contractual term of

ten years

 from the grant date, subject to earlier termination of the term

upon certain events. Compensation expense for these stock options is recognized using a graded vesting method. 

We estimated the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. During the three months

ended April 1, 2023 we did

no

t grant any stock options.

2023 and March 26, 2022, respectively.

We have not declared cash dividends on our stock in the past and we do not anticipate declaring cash dividends in

the foreseeable future. The expected stock price volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on

our stock, historical volatility of our stock, and other factors. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S.

Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant in conjunction with considering the expected life of options. The

six

-year expected life of the options was determined using the simplified method for estimating the expected term

as permitted under SAB Topic 14. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the

value ultimately realized by recipients of stock options, and subsequent events are not indicative of the

reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by us.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In accordance with the “Safe Harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we

provide the following cautionary remarks regarding important factors that, among others, could cause future results

to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, expectations and assumptions expressed or implied

herein. All forward-looking statements made by us are subject to risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of

future performance. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other

factors that may cause our actual results, performance and achievements or industry results to be materially

different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking

statements. These statements are generally identified by the use of such terms as “may,” “could,” “expect,”

“intend,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “anticipate,” “to be,” “to make” or other comparable

terms. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in

the documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Annual Report on Form

10-K. Forward looking statements include the overall impact of the Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

on us, our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition (including any estimates of the impact on these

items), the rate and consistency with which dental and other practices resume or maintain normal operations in the

United States and internationally, expectations regarding PPE products and COVID-19 related product sales and

inventory levels, whether additional resurgences or variants of the virus will adversely impact the resumption of

normal operations, whether supply chain disruptions will adversely impact our business, the impact of integration

and restructuring programs as well as of any future acquisitions, general economic conditions including exchange

rates, inflation and recession, and more generally current expectations regarding performance in current and future

periods. Forward looking statements also include the (i) our ability to have continued access to a variety of

COVID-19 test types and expectations regarding COVID-19 test sales, demand and inventory levels and (ii)

potential for us to distribute the COVID-19 vaccines and ancillary supplies.

Risk factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current and historical results

include, but are not limited to: risks associated with COVID-19 and any variants thereof, as well as other disease

outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or similar wide-spread public health concerns and other natural disasters; our

dependence on third parties for the manufacture and supply of our products; our ability to develop or acquire and

maintain and protect new products (particularly technology products) and technologies that achieve market

acceptance with acceptable margins; transitional challenges associated with acquisitions, dispositions and joint

ventures, including the failure to achieve anticipated synergies/benefits; legal, regulatory, compliance,

cybersecurity, financial and tax risks associated with acquisitions, dispositions and joint ventures; certain provisions

in our governing documents that may discourage third-party acquisitions of us; adverse changes in supplier rebates

or other purchasing incentives; risks related to the sale of corporate brand products; effects of a highly competitive

(including, without limitation, competition from third-party online commerce sites) and consolidating market; the

repeal or judicial prohibition on implementation of the Affordable Care Act; changes in the health care industry;

risks from expansion of customer purchasing power and multi-tiered costing structures; increases in shipping costs

for our products or other service issues with our third-party shippers; general global and domestic macro-economic

and political conditions, including inflation, deflation, recession, fluctuations in energy pricing and the value of the

U.S. dollar as compared to foreign currencies, and changes to other economic indicators, international trade

agreements, potential trade barriers and terrorism; failure to comply with existing and future regulatory

requirements; risks associated with the EU Medical Device Regulation; failure to comply with laws and regulations

relating to health care fraud or other laws and regulations; failure to comply with laws and regulations relating to

the collection, storage and processing of sensitive personal information or standards in electronic health records or

transmissions; changes in tax legislation; risks related to product liability, intellectual property and other claims;

litigation risks; new or unanticipated litigation developments and the status of litigation matters; risks associated

with customs policies or legislative import restrictions; cyberattacks or other privacy or data security breaches; risks

associated with our global operations; our dependence on our senior management, employee hiring and retention,

and our relationships with customers, suppliers and manufacturers; and disruptions in financial markets. The order

in which these factors appear should not be construed to indicate their relative importance or priority.

28

We caution that these factors may not be exhaustive and that many of these factors are beyond our ability to control

or predict. Accordingly, any forward-looking statements contained herein should not be relied upon as a prediction

of actual results. We undertake no duty and have no obligation to update forward-looking statements except as

required by law.

Where You Can Find Important Information

We may disclose important information through one or more of the following channels: SEC filings, public

conference calls and webcasts, press releases, the investor relations page of our website (www.henryschein.com)

and the social media channels identified on the Newsroom page of our website.

Recent Developments

During the year ended December 31, 2022 we experienced a decrease in the sales of PPE and COVID-19 test kits. 

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we continued to experience a decrease in the sales of PPE and

COVID-19 test kits compared with the same period in the prior year and we expect further decreases in sales in

2023 compared to the prior year.

The impact from inflation, including manufacturer price increases excluding PPE products, was slightly more

pronounced in Europe than in North America. Though inflation impacts both our revenues and costs, the depth and

breadth of our product portfolio often allows us to offer lower-cost national brand solutions or corporate brand

alternatives to our more price-sensitive customers who are unable to absorb price increases, thus positioning us to

protect our gross profit.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by us that affect, among

other things, our goodwill, long-lived asset and definite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; equity

investment valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income

tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; hedging activity; supplier rebates; measurement of

compensation cost for certain share-based performance awards and cash bonus plans; and pension plan

assumptions. There is an ongoing risk that the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic may again have a

material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows and may result in a material adverse

effect on our financial condition and liquidity. However, the extent of the potential impact cannot be reasonably

estimated at this time.

Executive-Level Overview

Henry Schein, Inc. is a solutions company for health care professionals powered by a network of people and

technology. We believe we are the world’s largest provider of health care products and services primarily to office-

based dental and medical practitioners, as well as alternate sites of care. 

We

serve more than one million customers

worldwide including dental practitioners, laboratories, physician practices, and ambulatory surgery centers, as well

as government, institutional health care clinics and other alternate care clinics. 

We

believe that we have a strong

brand identity due to our more than 90 years of experience distributing health care products.

We are headquartered in Melville, New York, employ more than 22,000 people (of which approximately 10,700 are

based outside of the United States) and have operations or affiliates in 32 countries and territories. Our broad

global footprint has evolved over time through our organic success as well as through contribution from strategic

acquisitions.

We

have established strategically located distribution centers around the world to enable us to better serve our

customers and increase our operating efficiency. This infrastructure, together with broad product and service

offerings at competitive prices, and a strong commitment to customer service, enables us to be a single source of

supply for our customers’ needs.

While our primary go-to-market strategy is in our capacity as a distributor, we also market and sell our own

corporate brand portfolio of cost-effective, high-quality consumable merchandise products, manufacture certain

dental specialty products in the areas of implants, orthodontics and endodontics, and repackage/relabel prescription

drugs and/or devices. 

We

have achieved scale in these global businesses primarily through acquisitions as

manufacturers of these products typically do not utilize a distribution channel to serve customers.

We

conduct our business through two reportable segments: (i) health care distribution and (ii) technology and

value-added services. These segments offer different products and services to the same customer base. Our global

dental businesses serve office-based dental practitioners, dental laboratories, schools, government and other

institutions. Our medical businesses serve physician offices, urgent care centers, ambulatory care sites, emergency

medical technicians, dialysis centers, home health, federal and state governments and large enterprises, such as

group practices and integrated delivery networks, among other providers across a wide range of specialties. 

The health care distribution reportable segment, combining our global dental and medical operating segments,

distributes consumable products, small equipment, laboratory products, large equipment, equipment repair services,

branded and generic pharmaceuticals, vaccines, surgical products, dental specialty products (including implant,

orthodontic and endodontic products), diagnostic tests, infection-control products, PPE products and vitamins. 

Our global technology and value-added services business provides software, technology and other value-added

services to health care practitioners. Our technology business offerings include practice management software

systems for dental and medical practitioners. Our value-added practice solutions include practice consultancy,

education, revenue cycle management and financial services on a non-recourse basis, e-services, practice

technology, network and hardware services, as well as consulting, and continuing education services for

practitioners.

A key element to grow closer to our customers is our One Schein initiative, which is a unified go-to-market

approach that enables practitioners to work synergistically with our supply chain, equipment sales and service and

other value-added services, allowing our customers to leverage the combined value that we offer through a single

program. Specifically, One Schein provides customers with streamlined access to our comprehensive offering of

national brand products, our corporate brand products and proprietary specialty products and solutions (including

implant, orthodontic and endodontic products). In addition, customers have access to a wide range of services,

including software and other value-added services.

30

Industry Overview

In recent years, the health care industry has increasingly focused on cost containment. This trend has benefited

distributors capable of providing a broad array of products and services at low prices. It also has accelerated the

growth of HMOs, group practices, other managed care accounts and collective buying groups, which, in addition to

their emphasis on obtaining products at competitive prices, tend to favor distributors capable of providing

specialized management information support. 

We

believe that the trend towards cost containment has the potential

to favorably affect demand for technology solutions, including software, which can enhance the efficiency and

facilitation of practice management.

Our operating results in recent years have been significantly affected by strategies and transactions that we

undertook to expand our business, domestically and internationally, in part to address significant changes in the

health care industry, including consolidation of health care distribution companies, health care reform, trends

toward managed care, cuts in Medicare and collective purchasing arrangements.

Industry Consolidation

The health care products distribution industry, as it relates to office-based health care practitioners, is fragmented

and diverse. The industry ranges from sole practitioners working out of relatively small offices to group practices

or service organizations ranging in size from a few practitioners to a large number of practitioners who have

combined or otherwise associated their practices.

Due in part to the inability of office-based health care practitioners to store and manage large quantities of supplies

in their offices, the distribution of health care supplies and small equipment to office-based health care practitioners

has been characterized by frequent, small quantity orders, and a need for rapid, reliable and substantially complete

order fulfillment. The purchasing decisions within an office-based health care practice are typically made by the

practitioner or an administrative assistant. Supplies and small equipment are generally purchased from more than

one distributor, with one generally serving as the primary supplier.

The trend of consolidation extends to our customer base. Health care practitioners are increasingly seeking to

partner, affiliate or combine with larger entities such as hospitals, health systems, group practices or physician

hospital organizations. In many cases, purchasing decisions for consolidated groups are made at a centralized or

professional staff level; however, orders are delivered to the practitioners’ offices.

We

believe that consolidation within the industry will continue to result in a number of distributors, particularly

those with limited financial, operating and marketing resources, seeking to combine with larger companies that can

provide growth opportunities. This consolidation also may continue to result in distributors seeking to acquire

companies that can enhance their current product and service offerings or provide opportunities to serve a broader

customer base.

Our approach to acquisitions and joint ventures has been to expand our role as a provider of products and services

to the health care industry. This trend has resulted in our expansion into service areas that complement our existing

operations and provide opportunities for us to develop synergies with, and thus strengthen, the acquired businesses.

As industry consolidation continues, we believe that we are positioned to capitalize on this trend, as we believe we

have the ability to support increased sales through our existing infrastructure, although there can be no assurances

that we will be able to successfully accomplish this. 

We

also have invested in expanding our sales/marketing

infrastructure to include a focus on building relationships with decision makers who do not reside in the office-

based practitioner setting.

As the health care industry continues to change, we continually evaluate possible candidates for joint venture or

acquisition and intend to continue to seek opportunities to expand our role as a provider of products and services to

the health care industry. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully pursue any such

opportunity or consummate any such transaction, if pursued. If additional transactions are entered into or

31

consummated, we would incur merger and/or acquisition-related costs, and there can be no assurance that the

integration efforts associated with any such transaction would be successful.

Aging Population and Other Market Influences

The health care products distribution industry continues to experience growth due to the aging population,

increased health care awareness, the proliferation of medical technology and testing, new pharmacology treatments,

and expanded third-party insurance coverage, partially offset by the effects of unemployment on insurance

coverage. In addition, the physician market continues to benefit from the shift of procedures and diagnostic testing

from acute care settings to alternate-care sites, particularly physicians’ offices.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s International Database, between 2023 and 2033, the 45 and older

population is expected to grow by approximately 11%. Between 2023 and 2043, this age group is expected to grow

by approximately 21%. This compares with expected total U.S. population growth rates of approximately 6%

between 2023 and 2033 and approximately 11% between 2023 and 2043.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s International Database, in 2023 there are approximately seven million

Americans aged 85 years or older, the segment of the population most in need of long-term care and elder-care

services. By the year 2050, that number is projected to nearly triple to approximately 19 million. The population

aged 65 to 84 years is projected to increase by approximately 23% during the same period.

As a result of these market dynamics, annual expenditures for health care services continue to increase in the

United States. We believe that demand for our products and services will grow while continuing to be impacted by

current and future operating, economic, and industry conditions. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services,

or CMS, published “National Health Expenditure Data” indicating that total national health care spending reached

approximately $4.3 trillion in 2021, or 18.3% of the nation’s gross domestic product, the benchmark measure for

annual production of goods and services in the United States. Health care spending is projected to reach

approximately $6.8 trillion by 2030, or 19.6% of the nation’s projected gross domestic product.

Government

Certain of our businesses involve the distribution, manufacturing, importation, exportation, marketing and sale of,

and/or third party payment for, pharmaceuticals and/or medical devices, and in this regard, we are subject to

extensive local, state, federal and foreign governmental laws and regulations, including as applicable to our

wholesale distribution of pharmaceuticals and medical devices, manufacturing activities, and as part of our

specialty home medical supply business that distributes and sells medical equipment and supplies directly to

patients. Federal, state and certain foreign governments have also increased enforcement activity in the health care

sector, particularly in areas of fraud and abuse, anti-bribery and corruption, controlled substances handling, medical

device regulations and data privacy and security standards.

Certain of our businesses are subject to various additional federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations,

including with respect to the sale, transportation, storage, handling and disposal of hazardous or potentially

hazardous substances, and safe working conditions. In addition, certain of our businesses must operate in

compliance with a variety of burdensome and complex billing and record-keeping requirements in order to

substantiate claims for payment under federal, state and commercial healthcare reimbursement programs. One of

these businesses was suspended in October 2021 by CMS from receiving payments from Medicare, although it was

permitted to continue to perform and bill for Medicare services. Such suspension was terminated on September 30,

2022.

Government and private insurance programs fund a large portion of the total cost of medical care, and there have

been efforts to limit such private and government insurance programs, including efforts, thus far unsuccessful, to

seek repeal of the entire United States Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care

and Education Reconciliation Act, each enacted in March 2010 (as amended, the “ACA”). In addition, activities to

control medical costs, including laws and regulations lowering reimbursement rates for pharmaceuticals, medical

32

devices and/or medical treatments or services, are ongoing. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to

change and their evolving implementation may impact our operations and our financial performance.

Our businesses are generally subject to numerous laws and regulations that could impact our financial performance,

and failure to comply with such laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A more detailed discussion of governmental laws and regulations is included in Management’s Discussion &

Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the

fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on February 21, 2023.

Plan of Restructuring

On August 1, 2022, we committed to a restructuring plan focused on funding the priorities of the strategic plan and

streamlining operations and other initiatives to increase efficiency. We expect this initiative to extend through

2023. We are currently unable in good faith to make a determination of an estimate of the amount or range of

amounts expected to be incurred in connection with these activities, both with respect to each major type of cost

associated therewith and with respect to the total cost, or an estimate of the amount or range of amounts that will

result in future cash expenditures.

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded restructuring costs of $30 million primarily related to

severance and employee-related costs, accelerated amortization of right-of-use lease assets and fixed assets, and

other lease exit costs. This amount also includes $1 million related to the disposal of an unprofitable U.S. business,

initiated during 2022 and completed during the three months ended April 1, 2023.

Consists of consumable products, small equipment, laboratory products, large equipment, equipment repair services, branded and

generic pharmaceuticals, vaccines, surgical products, dental specialty products (including implant, orthodontic and endodontic

products), diagnostic tests, infection-control products, PPE products and vitamins.

(2)

Consists of practice management software and other value-added products, which are distributed primarily to health care providers,

practice consultancy, education, revenue cycle management and financial services on a non-recourse basis, e-services, continuing

education services for practitioners, consulting and other services.

Global Sales

Global net sales for the three months ended April 1, 2023 decreased 3.8% based upon the components presented in

the table above. Sales of PPE products and COVID-19 test kits for the three months ended April 1, 2023 were

approximately $201 million, a decrease of approximately 58.8% versus the three months ended March 26, 2022. 

Excluding PPE products and COVID-19 test kits, the increase in internally generated local currency sales was

6.3%.

Dental

Dental net sales for the three months ended April 1, 2023 increased 3.8% based upon the components presented in

the table above. Our sales growth in local currency for dental merchandise was primarily attributable to stable

patient traffic along with some price increases. Our sales growth in local currency for dental equipment was

primarily attributable to growth in North America for traditional equipment, partially offset by a decrease in digital

equipment. International dental equipment sales growth in local currency was supported by a strong equipment

backlog. Sales of PPE products for the three months ended April 1, 2023 were approximately $92 million, a

decrease of approximately 35.8% versus the three months ended March 26, 2022. Excluding PPE products, the

increase in internally generated local currency dental sales was 7.4%.

35

Medical

Medical net sales for the three months ended April 1, 2023 decreased 17.2% based upon the components presented

in the table above. The local currency decrease in medical sales is primarily attributable to lower sales of PPE

products and COVID-19 test kits, partially offset by strong medical equipment and pharmaceutical sales. Sales of

PPE products and COVID-19 test kits were approximately $109 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023, a

decrease of approximately 68.4% compared to the three months ended March 26, 2022. Excluding PPE products

and COVID-19 test kits, the increase in internally generated local currency medical sales was 4.2%.

Technology and value-added services

Technology and value-added services net sales for the three months ended April 1, 2023 increased 6.8% based upon

the components presented in the table above. During the three months ended April 1, 2023, the trend for sales of

transactional software improved as we increased the number of cloud-based users, generating demand for our

revenue cycle management solutions which drive practice efficiency and patient engagement. The increase in sales

during the quarter ended April 1, 2023 was partially offset by the expiration, during the third quarter of 2022, of a

modestly profitable government contract in one of our value-added services businesses.

As a result of different practices of categorizing costs associated with distribution networks throughout our

industry, our gross margins may not necessarily be comparable to other distribution companies. Additionally, we

realize substantially higher gross margin percentages in our technology and value-added services segment than in

our health care distribution segment. These higher gross margins result from being both the developer and seller of

software products and services, as well as certain financial services. The software industry typically realizes higher

gross margins to recover investments in research and development.

Within our health care distribution segment, gross profit margins may vary from one period to the next. Changes in

the mix of products sold as well as changes in our customer mix have been the most significant drivers affecting

our gross profit margin. For example, sales of our corporate brand products achieve gross profit margins that are

higher than average total gross profit margins of all products. With respect to customer mix, sales to our large-

group customers are typically completed at lower gross margins due to the higher volumes sold as opposed to the

gross margin on sales to office-based practitioners, who normally purchase lower volumes. 

Health care distribution gross profit decreased primarily due to the decrease in net sales discussed above, partially

offset by $11 million of gross profit from acquisitions and gross margin expansion, mainly as a result of price

increases and a favorable impact of sales mix of higher-margin products.

Technology and value-added services gross profit increased as a result of a higher gross profit from internally

generated sales and gross profit of $3 million from acquisitions, as well as an increase in gross margin rates

primarily due to the impact of price increases.

The restructuring costs are primarily related to severance and employee-related costs, accelerated amortization of

right-of-use lease assets and fixed assets, and other lease exit costs. The increase in operating costs includes

increases in payroll and payroll related costs, travel and convention expenses and acquisition costs in both of our

reportable segments. While the U.S. economy has recently experienced inflationary pressures and strengthening of

the U.S. dollar, their impacts have not been material to our results of operations.

Interest income increased primarily due to increased interest rates. Interest expense increased primarily due to

increased borrowings and increased interest rates.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended April 1, 2023 our effective tax rate was 23.8% compared to 24.0% for the prior year

period. The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory tax rate primarily relates to state and

foreign income taxes and interest expense as well as stock-based compensation.

37

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal capital requirements have included funding of acquisitions, purchases of additional noncontrolling

interests, repayments of debt principal, the funding of working capital needs, purchases of fixed assets and

repurchases of common stock. Working capital requirements generally result from increased sales, special

inventory forward buy-in opportunities and payment terms for receivables and payables. Historically, sales have

tended to be stronger during the second half of the year and special inventory forward buy-in opportunities have

been most prevalent just before the end of the year, and have caused our working capital requirements to be higher

from the end of the third quarter to the end of the first quarter of the following year.

We finance our business primarily through cash generated from our operations, revolving credit facilities and debt

placements. Please see

 for further information. Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from

operations is dependent on the continued demand of our customers for our products and services, and access to

products and services from our suppliers.

Our business requires a substantial investment in working capital, which is susceptible to fluctuations during the

year as a result of inventory purchase patterns and seasonal demands. Inventory purchase activity is a function of

sales activity, special inventory forward buy-in opportunities and our desired level of inventory. We anticipate

future increases in our working capital requirements.

We finance our business to provide adequate funding for at least 12 months. Funding requirements are based on

forecasted profitability and working capital needs, which, on occasion, may change. Consequently, we may change

our funding structure to reflect any new requirements.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, our ability to access private debt markets and public equity markets,

and our available funds under existing credit facilities provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our currently

foreseeable short-term and long-term capital needs.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $27 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023, compared to

net cash provided by operating activities of $93 million for the prior year. The net change of $66 million was

primarily due to a decrease in operating income and an unfavorable change in working capital, net of acquisitions.

Net cash used in investing activities was $39 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023, compared to $27

million for the prior year. The net change of $12 million was primarily attributable to increased payments for

purchases of fixed assets.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $21 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023, compared to

net cash used in financing activities of $62 million for the prior year. The net change of $83 million was primarily

due to increased net borrowings from debt, partially offset by increased repurchases of common stock.

securitization at April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

Our cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances and investments in money market funds representing

overnight investments with a high degree of liquidity.

Accounts receivable days sales outstanding and inventory turns

Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding from operations increased to 43.4 days as of April 1, 2023 from

41.6 days as of March 26, 2022. During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we wrote off approximately $3

million of fully reserved accounts receivable against our trade receivable reserve. Our inventory turns from

operations decreased to 4.3 as of April 1, 2023 from 4.7 as of March 26, 2022. Our working capital accounts may

be impacted by current and future economic conditions.

Leases

We have operating and finance leases for corporate offices, office space, distribution and other facilities, vehicles,

and certain equipment. Our leases have remaining terms of less than one year to approximately 18 years, some of

which may include options to extend the leases for up to 15 years. As of April 1, 2023, our right-of-use assets

related to operating leases were $280 million and our current and non-current operating lease liabilities were $73

million and $274 million, respectively.

Stock Repurchases

On February 8, 2023, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to an additional $400 million in shares

of our common stock.

From March 3, 2003 through April 1, 2023, we repurchased $4.6 billion, or 88,404,588 shares, under our common

stock repurchase programs, with $415 million available as of April 1, 2023 for future common stock share

repurchases.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in our exposure to market risk from that disclosed in Item 7A of our Annual

Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and

principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and

procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)

and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based

on this evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer,

concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 1, 2023, to ensure that all material

information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated

and communicated to them as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that all such

information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules

and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The combination of continued acquisition integrations and systems implementation activity undertaken during the

quarter ended April 1, 2023 and carried over from prior quarters when considered in the aggregate, does not

represent a material change in our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance

that the objectives of the internal control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control

system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company

have been detected.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on

Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Purchases of equity securities by the issuer

Our share repurchase program, announced on March 3, 2003, originally allowed us to repurchase up to two million

shares pre-stock splits (eight million shares post-stock splits) of our common stock, which represented

approximately 2.3% of the shares outstanding at the commencement of the program. Subsequent additional

increases totaling $4.9 billion, authorized by our Board of Directors, to the repurchase program provide for a total

of $5.0 billion (including $400 million authorized on February 8, 2023) of shares of our common stock to be

repurchased under this program.

As of April 1, 2023, we had repurchased approximately $4.6 billion of common stock (88,404,588 shares) under

these initiatives, with $415 million available for future common stock share repurchases.

Basis of Presentation [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Henry Schein, Inc. and all of our

controlled subsidiaries (“we”, “us” or “our”). All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in

consolidation. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates in which we have the ability to influence the operating or

financial decisions are accounted for under the equity method. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified

to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications, individually and in the aggregate, did not

have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with

accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and

with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the

information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited

consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report

on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and with the information contained in our other publicly-

available filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The condensed consolidated financial statements

reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations and

financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United

States requires us 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. The results of

operations for the three months ended April 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for

any other interim period or for the year ending December 30, 2023.

We consolidate the results of operations and financial position of a trade accounts receivable securitization which

we consider a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) because we are the primary beneficiary, and we have the power to

direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance and have the obligation to absorb the

majority of the losses or benefits. For this VIE, the trade accounts receivable transferred to the VIE are pledged as

collateral to the related debt. The creditors have recourse to us for losses on these trade accounts receivable. At

April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, certain trade accounts receivable that can only be used to settle obligations

of this VIE were $

555

 million and $

327

 million, respectively, and the liabilities of this VIE where the creditors

have recourse to us were $

420

 million and $

255

 million, respectively.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by us that affect, among

other things, our goodwill, long-lived asset and definite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; equity

investment valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income

tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; hedging activity; supplier rebates; measurement of

compensation cost for certain share-based performance awards and cash bonus plans; and pension plan

assumptions. There is an ongoing risk that the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic may again have a

material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows and may result in a material adverse

effect on our financial condition and liquidity. However, the extent of the potential impact cannot be reasonably

estimated at this time

Standards

Critical Accounting Policies 

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies during the three months ended April 1,

2023, as compared to the critical accounting policies described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for

the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update

(“ASU”) No. 2022-04, “Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance

Program Obligations,” which will increase transparency of supplier finance programs by requiring entities that use

such programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative

information about such programs. ASU 2022-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022,

including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for amended roll forward information, which is effective

for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will

have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the

Sunset Date of Topic 848,” which extends the period of application of temporary optional expedients from

December 21, 2022 to December 31, 2024. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will have a

material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Business Acquisitions

In connection with our business acquisitions, the major classes of assets and liabilities to which we generally

allocate acquisition consideration to, excluding goodwill, include identifiable intangible assets (i.e., customer

relationships and lists, trademarks and trade names, product development and non-compete agreements), inventory

and accounts receivable. The estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on critical judgments

and assumptions derived from analysis of market conditions, including discount rates, projected revenue growth

rates (which are based on historical trends and assessment of financial projections), estimated customer attrition and

projected cash flows. These assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market

conditions.

While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the

acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and

subject to refinement. As a result, within 12 months following the date of acquisition, or the measurement period,

we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill

within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. At the end of the measurement period or final determination of

the values of such assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are

recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The accounting for certain of our acquisitions during the year ended December 31, 2022 had not been completed in

several areas, including but not limited to pending assessments of intangible assets, and contingent consideration

assets and liabilities. For the three months ended April 1, 2023 and March 26, 2022, there were no material

adjustments recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of income relating to changes in estimated values of

assets acquired, liabilities assumed and contingent consideration assets and liabilities.

2023 Acquisitions

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we acquired the majority of a company within the health care

distribution segment. The impact of this acquisition was not considered material to our condensed consolidated

financial statements.

The following table aggregates the estimated fair value, as of the date of acquisition, of consideration paid and net

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly

transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between

(1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable

inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best

information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs).

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices

in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

• Level 1— Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the

measurement date.

• Level 2— Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,

either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted

prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by

observable market data by correlation or other means.

• Level 3— Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability.

The following section describes the fair values of our financial instruments and the methodologies that we used to

measure their fair values. 

Investments and notes receivable

There are no quoted market prices available for investments in unconsolidated affiliates and notes receivable. 

Certain of our notes receivable contain variable interest rates. We believe the carrying amounts are a reasonable

estimate of fair value based on the interest rates in the applicable markets. 

Debt

The fair value of our debt (including bank credit lines, current maturities of long-term debt and long-term debt) is

classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, and as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was estimated

at $

1,312

 million and $

1,149

 million, respectively. Factors that we considered when estimating the fair value of

our debt include market conditions, such as interest rates and credit spreads.

Derivative contracts

Derivative contracts are valued using quoted market prices and significant other observable inputs. We use

derivative instruments to minimize our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our derivative

instruments primarily include foreign currency forward agreements related to certain intercompany loans, certain

forecasted inventory purchase commitments with foreign suppliers, foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a

portion of our euro-denominated foreign operations which are designated as net investment hedges and a total

return swap for the purpose of economically hedging our unfunded non-qualified supplemental executive retirement

plan and our deferred compensation plan.

The fair values for the majority of our foreign currency derivative contracts are obtained by comparing our contract

rate to a published forward price of the underlying market rates, which is based on market rates for comparable

transactions and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. 

Total Return Swaps

The fair value for the total return swap is measured by valuing the underlying exchange traded funds of the swap

using market-on-close pricing by industry providers as of the valuation date and are classified within Level 2 of the

fair value hierarchy.

Redeemable noncontrolling interests

The values for redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are

based on recent transactions and/or implied multiples of earnings.

Assets measured on a non-recurring basis at fair value include Goodwill and Other intangibles, net, and are

classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents our assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring

basis classified under the appropriate level of the fair value hierarchy as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

Revolving Credit Agreement

On

August 20, 2021

, we entered into a $

1.0

 billion revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). This

facility, which matures on

August 20, 2026

 replaced our $

750

 million revolving credit facility which was scheduled

to mature in April 2022. The interest rate is based on the USD LIBOR plus a spread based on our leverage ratio at

the end of each financial reporting quarter. Most LIBOR rates have been discontinued after December 31, 2021,

while the remaining LIBOR rates will be discontinued immediately after June 30, 2023. We do not expect the

discontinuation of LIBOR as a reference rate in our debt agreements to have a material adverse effect on our

financial position or to materially affect our interest expense. The Credit Agreement requires, among other things,

that we maintain certain maximum leverage ratios. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains customary

representations, warranties and affirmative covenants as well as customary negative covenants, subject to

negotiated exceptions, on liens, indebtedness, significant corporate changes (including mergers), dispositions and

certain restrictive agreements. As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had

no

 borrowings under this

revolving credit facility, and there were $

9

 million and $

9

 million of letters of credit, respectively, provided to third

parties under the credit facility.

Other Short-Term Bank Credit Lines

As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had various other short-term bank credit lines available, with a

maximum borrowing capacity of $

404

 million and $

402

 million, respectively. As of April 1, 2023 and December

31, 2022, $

236

 million and $

103

 million, respectively, were outstanding. At April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022,

borrowings under all of these credit lines had a weighted average interest rate of

7.55

Private Placement Facilities

Our private placement facilities include

1.5

 billion, and

are available on an uncommitted basis at fixed rate economic terms to be agreed upon at the time of issuance, from

time to time through

October 20, 2026

. The facilities allow us to issue senior promissory notes to the lenders at a

fixed rate based on an agreed upon spread over applicable treasury notes at the time of issuance. The term of each

possible issuance will be selected by us and can range from

five

 to

15 years

 (with an average life no longer than

12

years

). The proceeds of any issuances under the facilities will be used for general corporate purposes, including

working capital and capital expenditures, to refinance existing indebtedness, and/or to fund potential acquisitions. 

The agreements provide, among other things, that we maintain certain maximum leverage ratios, and contain

restrictions relating to subsidiary indebtedness, liens, affiliate transactions, disposal of assets and certain changes in

ownership. These facilities contain make-whole provisions in the event that we pay off the facilities prior to the

applicable due dates.

The components of our private placement facility borrowings, which have a weighted average interest rate of

U.S. Trade Accounts Receivable Securitization

We have a facility agreement based on the securitization of our U.S. trade accounts receivable that is structured as

an asset-backed securitization program with pricing committed for up to

three years

. This facility agreement has a

purchase limit of $

450

 million with

two

 banks as agents, expires on

December 15, 2025

.

As of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the borrowings outstanding under this securitization facility were $

360

million and $

330

 million, respectively. At April 1, 2023, the interest rate on borrowings under this facility was

based on the asset-backed commercial paper rate of

4.99

% plus

0.75

%, for a combined rate of

5.74

%. At

December 31, 2022, the interest rate on borrowings under this facility was based on the asset-backed commercial

paper rate of

4.58

% plus

0.75

%, for a combined rate of

5.33

%.

If our accounts receivable collection pattern changes due to customers either paying late or not making payments,

our ability to borrow under this facility may be reduced.

We are required to pay a commitment fee of

30

 to

35

 basis points depending upon program utilization.

Income Taxes

Note 8 – Income Taxes

For the three months ended April 1, 2023 our effective tax rate was

23.8

% compared to

24.0

% for the prior year

period. The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory tax rate primarily relates to state and

foreign income taxes and interest expense as well as stock-based compensation.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which are included in “other liabilities” within our condensed

consolidated balance sheets, as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $

95

 million and $

94

 million,

respectively, of which $

80

 million and $

80

 million, respectively, would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. 

It is possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change in the next 12 months, which may result in a

material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income.

All tax returns audited by the IRS are officially closed through 2018. The tax years subject to examination by the

IRS include years 2019 and forward. In addition, limited positions reported in the 2017 tax year are subject to IRS

examination. During the quarter ended December 25, 2021, we were notified by the IRS that tax year 2019 was

selected for examination.

The total amounts of interest and penalties are classified as a component of the provision for income taxes. The

amount of tax interest expense was $

1

 million for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and $

1

 million for the three

Plan of Restructuring

Note 9 – Plan of Restructuring

On August 1, 2022, we committed to a restructuring plan focused on funding the priorities of the strategic plan and

streamlining operations and other initiatives to increase efficiency. We expect this initiative to extend through

2023. We are currently unable in good faith to make a determination of an estimate of the amount or range of

amounts expected to be incurred in connection with these activities, both with respect to each major type of cost

associated therewith and with respect to the total cost, or an estimate of the amount or range of amounts that will

result in future cash expenditures.

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, we recorded restructuring costs of $

30

 million primarily related to

severance and employee-related costs, accelerated amortization of right-of-use lease assets and fixed assets, and

other lease exit costs. This amount also includes $

1

 million related to the disposal of an unprofitable U.S. business,

initiated during 2022 and completed during the three months ended April 1, 2023.

Restructuring costs recorded for the three months ended April 1, 2023 consisted of the following (there were

Legal Proceedings

Legal Proceedings [Abstract]

Legal Proceedings

Note 10 – Legal Proceedings

Henry Schein, Inc. has been named as a defendant in multiple opioid related lawsuits (currently less than one-

hundred and seventy-five (

175

); one or more of Henry Schein, Inc.’s subsidiaries is also named as a defendant in a

number of those cases). Generally, the lawsuits allege that the manufacturers of prescription opioid drugs engaged

in a false advertising campaign to expand the market for such drugs and their own market share and that the entities

in the supply chain (including Henry Schein, Inc. and its affiliated companies) reaped financial rewards by refusing

or otherwise failing to monitor appropriately and restrict the improper distribution of those drugs. These actions

consist of some that have been consolidated within the MultiDistrict Litigation (“MDL”) proceeding In Re National

Prescription Opiate Litigation (MDL No. 2804; Case No. 17-md-2804) and are currently stayed, and others which

remain pending in state courts and are proceeding independently and outside of the MDL. At this time, the

following cases are set for trial: the action filed by DCH Health Care Authority, et al. in Alabama state court, which

has been designated a bellwether with

eight

 of

thirty-eight

 plaintiffs set for a jury trial on July 24, 2023; and the

action filed by Florida Health Sciences Center, Inc. (and

38

 other hospitals located throughout the State of Florida)

in Florida state court, which is currently scheduled for a jury trial in May 2025. Of Henry Schein’s 2022 net sales

of approximately $

12.6

 billion from continuing operations, sales of opioids represented less than

two-tenths

 of 1

percent. Opioids represent a negligible part of our business. We intend to defend ourselves vigorously against

these actions.

In August 2022, Henry Schein received a Grand Jury Subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office for the

Western District of Virginia, seeking documents in connection with an investigation of possible violations of the

Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act by Butler Animal Health Supply, LLC (“Butler”), a former subsidiary of

Henry Schein. The investigation relates to the sale of veterinary prescription drugs to certain customers. In

October 2022, Henry Schein received a second Grand Jury Subpoena from the United States Attorney’s Office for

the Western District of Virginia. The October Subpoena seeks documents relating to payments Henry Schein

received from Butler or Covetrus, Inc. (“Covetrus”). Butler was spun off into a separate company and became a

subsidiary of Covetrus in 2019 and is no longer owned by Henry Schein. We are cooperating with the

investigation.

From time to time, we may become a party to other legal proceedings, including, without limitation, product

liability claims, employment matters, commercial disputes, governmental inquiries and investigations (which may

in some cases involve our entering into settlement arrangements or consent decrees), and other matters arising out

of the ordinary course of our business. While the results of any legal proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty,

in our opinion none of these other pending matters are currently anticipated to have a material adverse effect on our

consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

As of April 1, 2023, we had accrued our best estimate of potential losses relating to claims that were probable to

result in liability and for which we were able to reasonably estimate a loss. This accrued amount, as well as related

expenses, was not material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Our method for

determining estimated losses considers currently available facts, presently enacted laws and regulations and other

factors, including probable recoveries from third parties.

Stock-Based Compensation

3 Months Ended

Apr. 01, 2023

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract]

Stock-Based Compensation

Note 11 – Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based awards are provided to certain employees under the terms of our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and to

non-employee directors under the terms of our 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan (together, the

“Plans”). The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the

“Compensation Committee”). Historically, equity-based awards to our employees have been granted solely in the

form of time-based and performance-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with the exception of our 2021 plan year

in which non-qualified stock options were issued in place of performance-based RSUs. In 2022, we granted time-

based and performance-based RSUs, as well as non-qualified stock options. For our 2023 plan year, we returned to

granting our employees equity-based awards solely in the form of time-based and performance-based RSUs. Our

non-employee directors receive equity-based awards solely in the form of time-based RSUs.

RSUs are stock-based awards granted to recipients with specified vesting provisions. In the case of RSUs, common

stock is delivered on or following satisfaction of vesting conditions. We issue RSUs to employees that primarily

vest (i) solely based on the recipient’s continued service over time, primarily with

four

-year cliff vesting and/or (ii)

based on achieving specified performance measurements and the recipient’s continued service over time, primarily

with

three

-year cliff vesting. RSUs granted to our non-employee directors primarily are granted with

12

-month

cliff vesting. For these RSUs, we recognize the cost as compensation expense on a straight-line basis.

With respect to time-based RSUs, we estimate the fair value based on our closing stock price on the date of

grant. With respect to performance-based RSUs, the number of shares that ultimately vest and are received by the

recipient is based upon our performance as measured against specified targets over a specified period, as

determined by the Compensation Committee. Although there is no guarantee that performance targets will be

achieved, we estimate the fair value of performance-based RSUs based on our closing stock price at time of grant.

Each of the Plans provide for certain adjustments to the performance measurement in connection with awards under

the Plans. With respect to the performance-based RSUs granted under our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, such

performance measurement adjustments relate to significant events, including, without limitation, acquisitions,

divestitures, new business ventures, certain capital transactions (including share repurchases), differences in

budgeted average outstanding shares (other than those resulting from capital transactions referred to above),

restructuring costs, if any, certain litigation settlements or payments, if any, changes in accounting principles or in

applicable laws or regulations, changes in income tax rates in certain markets, foreign exchange fluctuations, the

financial impact either positive or negative, of the difference in projected earnings generated by COVID-19 test kits

(solely with respect to performance-based RSUs granted in the 2022 and 2023 plan years) and impairment charges

(solely with respect to performance-based RSUs granted in the 2023 plan year), and unforeseen events or

circumstances affecting us.

Over the performance period, the number of shares of common stock that will ultimately vest and be issued and the

related compensation expense is adjusted upward or downward based upon our estimation of achieving such

performance targets. The ultimate number of shares delivered to recipients and the related compensation cost

recognized as an expense will be based on our actual performance metrics as defined under the Plans.

Stock options are awards that allow the recipient to purchase shares of our common stock at a fixed price following

vesting of the stock options. Stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to our closing stock price on the

date of grant. Stock options issued in 2021 and 2022 vest

one-third

 per year based on the recipient’s continued

service, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, are fully vested

three years

 from the

grant date and have a contractual term of

ten years

 from the grant date, subject to earlier termination of the term

upon certain events. Compensation expense for these stock options is recognized using a graded vesting method. 

We estimated the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. During the three months

ended April 1, 2023 we did

no

t grant any stock options.

Our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income reflect pre-tax share-based compensation expense

of $

10

 million ($

7

 million after-tax) and $

12

 million ($

9

 million after-tax) for the three months ended April 1, 2023

and March 26, 2022, respectively.

Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards as of April 1, 2023 was $

119

 million, which is

expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately

2.7

 years.

Our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows present our stock-based compensation expense

as an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities for all periods presented. In

the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows, there were no benefits associated with tax deductions in

excess of recognized compensation as a cash inflow from financing activities for the three months ended April 1,

2023 and March 26, 2022, respectively.

We have not declared cash dividends on our stock in the past and we do not anticipate declaring cash dividends in

the foreseeable future. The expected stock price volatility is based on implied volatilities from traded options on

our stock, historical volatility of our stock, and other factors. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S.

Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant in conjunction with considering the expected life of options. The

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Note 12 – Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests

Some minority stockholders in certain of our subsidiaries have the right, at certain times, to require us to acquire

their ownership interest in those entities at fair value. Accounting Standards Codification Topic 480-10 is

applicable for noncontrolling interests where we are or may be required to purchase all or a portion of the

outstanding interest in a consolidated subsidiary from the noncontrolling interest holder under the terms of a put

option contained in contractual agreements. The components of the change in the redeemable noncontrolling

interests for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 are presented in the

Our financial statements are denominated in the U.S. Dollar currency. Fluctuations in the value of foreign

currencies as compared to the U.S. Dollar may have a significant impact on our comprehensive income. The

foreign currency translation gain during the three months ended April 1, 2023 and three months ended March 26,

2022 was primarily due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates of the Euro, British Pound, Australian

Dollar, Brazilian Real, New Zealand Dollar and Canadian Dollar.

Note 14

 –

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Henry Schein, Inc. by the weighted-

average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Our diluted earnings per share is computed similarly

to basic earnings per share, except that it reflects the effect of common shares issuable for presently unvested RSUs

and upon exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method in periods in which they have a dilutive effect.

A reconciliation of shares used in calculating earnings per basic and diluted share follows:

Critical Accounting Policies, Accounting Pronouncements Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards [Abstract]

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update

(“ASU”) No. 2022-04, “Liabilities – Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance

Program Obligations,” which will increase transparency of supplier finance programs by requiring entities that use

such programs in connection with the purchase of goods and services to disclose certain qualitative and quantitative

information about such programs. ASU 2022-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022,

including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for amended roll forward information, which is effective

for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will

have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the

Sunset Date of Topic 848,” which extends the period of application of temporary optional expedients from

December 21, 2022 to December 31, 2024. We do not expect that the requirements of this guidance will have a

material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
