Discontinued Operations and Related ZimVie Matters

 

On March 1, 2022, we completed the previously announced separation of our spine and dental businesses through the distribution of 80.3% of the outstanding shares of common stock of ZimVie to our stockholders at the close of business on February 15, 2022 (the “Record Date”). The distribution was made in the amount of one share of ZimVie common stock for every ten shares of our common stock owned by our stockholders at the close of business on the Record Date. Fractional shares of ZimVie common stock were not issued but instead were aggregated and sold in the open market with the proceeds being distributed pro rata in lieu of such fractional shares.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, ZimVie entered into a credit agreement with a financial institution providing for revolving loans of up to $175.0 million and term loan borrowings of up to $595.0 million. On February 28, 2022, prior to separation, ZimVie borrowed the entire $595.0 million available under the term loan. Approximately $540.6 million of this amount was paid by ZimVie to Zimmer Biomet in the form of a dividend at separation which is included in our cash flows from financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. We used proceeds from the dividend, along with cash on hand and proceeds from a draw on our revolving credit facility, to repay our 3.150% Senior Notes due 2022 which had an outstanding principal balance of $750.0 million.

Also, in connection with the spinoff, we entered into definitive agreements with ZimVie that, among other things, set forth the terms and conditions of the separation and distribution. The agreements set forth the principles and actions taken or to be taken in connection with the separation and the distribution and provide a framework for our relationship with ZimVie from and after the separation and the distribution. The agreements include a Separation and Distribution Agreement, a Tax Matters Agreement, an Employee Matters Agreement, a Transition Services Agreement (the “TSA”), an Intellectual Property Matters Agreement, a Stockholder and Registration Rights Agreement, a Transition Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “TMA”), a Reverse Transition Manufacturing and Supply Agreement (the “Reverse TMA”) and a Transitional Trademark License Agreement, each dated as of March 1, 2022.

Pursuant to the TSA, both we and ZimVie agree to provide certain services to each other, on an interim, transitional basis from and after the separation and the distribution. The services include certain regulatory services, commercial services, operational services, tax services, clinical affairs services, information technology services, finance and accounting services and human resource and employee benefits services. The remuneration to be paid for such services is generally intended to allow the company providing the services to recover all of its costs and expenses of providing such services. The TSA will terminate on the expiration of the term of the last service provided thereunder, which will generally be no later than March 31, 2025. However, we expect most TSA services will be completed by the end of 2023.

Pursuant to the TMA and the Reverse TMA, Zimmer Biomet or ZimVie, as the case may be, will manufacture or cause to be manufactured certain products for the other party, on an interim, transitional basis. Pursuant to such agreements, Zimmer Biomet or ZimVie, as the case may be, will be required to purchase certain minimum amounts of products from the other party. Each of the TMA and the Reverse TMA has a two-year term, with a one-year extension possible upon mutual agreement of the parties.

We recognize any gains or losses from the TSA and TMA agreements in Acquisition, integration, divestiture and related expense in our consolidated statements of earnings. Amounts included in the consolidated statements of earnings related to these agreements for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 were immaterial. Amounts due from ZimVie were also immaterial as of December 31, 2022.

We retained approximately 5.1 million common shares of ZimVie, representing approximately 19.7 percent of ZimVie's outstanding common shares on the separation date. Given our inability to exert significant influence over

ZimVie, we recognize this investment at fair value in prepaid expenses and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet. We disposed of these shares in February 2023. Changes to the fair value of the investment are recognized in non-operating other (expense) income, net. In the year ended December 31, 2022, we recognized losses of $116.6 million related to our investment in ZimVie.

On August 31, 2022, we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $83.0 million under a short-term credit agreement (the “Short-Term Term Loan”) with a third-party financial institution, the proceeds of which were used to repay certain of our existing indebtedness. On September 1, 2022, we entered into a forward exchange agreement and pledge agreement (collectively the “Forward Exchange Agreement”) with the same financial institution to deliver to them our 5.1 million shares of ZimVie common stock in the first quarter of 2023. It is likely that the financial institution entered into hedging transactions, which may have included selling the ZimVie shares in the market, in anticipation of receiving the shares in the first quarter of 2023. We pledged our 5.1 million shares of ZimVie common stock to the financial institution as collateral for our obligations under the Short-Term Term Loan and the Forward Exchange Agreement.

In February 2023, we repaid in full the Short-Term Term Loan by transferring our ZimVie common shares to the financial institution counterparty to settle the Forward Exchange Agreement and by paying $33.9 million in cash, representing an amount determined by the difference between the average daily volume-weighted average price of the ZimVie shares over the outstanding term of the Forward Exchange Agreement and the principal amount of $83.0 million.

The Forward Exchange Agreement was accounted for at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in non-operating other (expense) income, net. The most significant input into the valuation of the Forward Exchange Agreement is the price of ZimVie shares. The fair value of the Forward Exchange Agreement as of December 31, 2022 was $1.1 million and is included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2022, an unrealized gain of $1.1 million related to the change in fair value of the Forward Exchange Agreement was recorded in non-operating other (expense) income, net in our consolidated statements of earnings.

As discussed in Note 1, Business, the results of our spine and dental businesses have been reflected as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of earnings for the years presented. Details of earnings (loss) from discontinued operations included in our consolidated statements of earnings are as follows (in millions):
