Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words.
These statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors they believe to be appropriate. Any forward-looking statement is subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements.
Some of the factors that may cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 (the "Fiscal 2018 10-K") and the following:

We participate in a highly competitive market, and increased competition may adversely affect our business.

The demand for our offerings depends in part on our customers’ research and development and the clinical and market success of their products. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be harmed if our customers spend less on, or are less successful in, these activities.

We are subject to product and other liability risks that could exceed our anticipated costs or adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows.

Failure to comply with existing and future regulatory requirements could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition or result in claims from customers.

Failure to provide quality offerings to our customers could have an adverse effect on our business and subject us to regulatory actions or costly litigation.

The services and offerings we provide are highly exacting and complex, and if we encounter problems providing the services or support required, our business could suffer.

Our global operations are subject to economic, political, and regulatory risks, including the risks of changing regulatory standards or changing interpretations of existing standards, that could affect the profitability of our operations or require costly changes to our procedures.

The exit of the United Kingdom (the "U.K.") from the European Union could have future adverse effects on our operations, revenues and costs, and therefore our profitability.

If we do not enhance our existing or introduce new technology or service offerings in a timely manner, our offerings may become obsolete over time, customers may not buy our offerings, and our revenue and profitability may decline.

We and our customers depend on patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other forms of intellectual property protections, but these protections may not be adequate.

Our future results of operations are subject to fluctuations in the costs, availability, and suitability of the components of the products we manufacture, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients, purchased components, and raw materials.

Changes in market access or healthcare reimbursement for our customers’ products in the United States ("U.S.") or internationally, including possible changes to the U.S. Affordable Care Act, could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition by affecting demand for our offerings or the financial health of our customers.

3



As a global enterprise, fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar, our reporting currency, against foreign currencies could have a material adverse effect on our financial performance and results of operations.

The impact to our business of U.S. tax legislation enacted in December 2017 could differ materially from our current estimates.

Tax legislative or regulatory initiatives or challenges to our tax positions could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.

Changes to the estimated future profitability of the business may require that we establish an additional valuation allowance against all or some portion of our net U.S. deferred tax assets.

We are dependent on key personnel.

We use advanced information and communication systems to run our operations, compile and analyze financial and operational data, and communicate among our employees, customers, and counter-parties, and the risks generally associated with information and communications systems could adversely affect our results of operations. We are continuously working to install new, and upgrade existing, systems and provide employee awareness training around phishing, malware, and other cyber-security risks to enhance the protections available to us, but such protections may be inadequate to address malicious attacks or inadvertent compromises of data security.

We engage, from time to time, in acquisitions and other transactions that may complement or expand our business or divest of non-strategic businesses or assets. We may not be able to complete such transactions, and such transactions, if executed, pose significant risks, including risks relating to our ability to successfully and efficiently integrate acquisitions or execute on dispositions and realize anticipated benefits therefrom. The failure to execute or realize the full benefits from any such transaction could have a negative effect on our operations.

Our offerings or our customers’ products may infringe on the intellectual property rights of third parties.

We are subject to environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations, which could increase our costs and restrict our operations in the future.

We are subject to labor and employment laws and regulations, which could increase our costs and restrict our operations in the future.

Certain of our pension plans are underfunded, and additional cash contributions we may make to increase the funding level will reduce the cash available for our business, such as the payment of our interest expense.

Our substantial leverage could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or in our industry, expose us to interest-rate risk to the extent of our variable rate debt, and prevent us from meeting our obligations under our indebtedness.

We caution you that the risks, uncertainties and other factors referenced above may not contain all of the risks, uncertainties, and other factors that are important to you. In addition, we cannot assure you that we will realize the results, benefits, or developments that we expect or anticipate or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the consequences or affect us or our business in the way expected. There can be no assurance that (i) we have correctly measured or identified all of the factors affecting our business or the extent of these factors’ likely impact, (ii) the available information with respect to these factors on which such analysis is based is complete or accurate, (iii) such analysis is correct, or (iv) our strategy, which is based in part on this analysis, will be successful. All forward-looking statements in this report apply only as of the date of this report or as of the date they were made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Catalent, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

 
1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business
Catalent, Inc. ("Catalent" or the "Company") directly and wholly owns PTS Intermediate Holdings LLC ("Intermediate Holdings"). Intermediate Holdings directly and wholly owns Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. ("Operating Company"). The financial results of Catalent are comprised of the financial results of Operating Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("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 notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2019. The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information on the Company's accounting policies and footnotes, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").
In fiscal 2018, the Company engaged in a business reorganization to better align its internal business unit structure with its "Follow the Molecule" strategy and the increased focus on its biologics-related offerings. Under the revised structure, the Company created two new operating segments from the former Drug Delivery Solutions segment:
Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery, which encompasses biologic cell-line development and manufacturing, development and manufacturing services for blow-fill-seal unit doses, prefilled syringes, vials, and cartridges; analytical development and testing services for large molecules; and development and manufacturing for inhaled products for delivery via metered dose inhalers, dry powder inhalers, and intra-nasal sprays; and
Oral Drug Delivery, which encompasses comprehensive formulation, development, manufacturing, and analytical development capabilities using advanced processing technologies such as bioavailability enhancement, controlled release, particle size engineering, and taste-masking for solid oral-dose forms.
Each of the two new segments reports through a separate management team and ultimately reports to the Company's Chief Executive Officer who is designated as the Chief Operating Decision Maker for segment reporting purposes. The Company's operating segments are the same as its reporting segments. All prior-period comparative segment information has been restated to reflect the current reportable segments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting.
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements of the Company’s operations outside the U.S. are generally measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Adjustments to translate the assets and liabilities of these foreign operations into U.S. dollars are accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income/(loss) utilizing period-end exchange rates. In June 2018, as a result of the three-year cumulative consumer price index exceeding 100%, Argentina was classified as having a highly inflationary economy. Beginning on July 1, 2018, the Company accounts for its Argentine operations as highly inflationary.
Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Costs incurred in connection with the development of new offerings and manufacturing process improvements are recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses. Such research and development costs included in selling, general, and administrative expenses amounted to $0.5 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Costs incurred in connection with research and development services the Company provides to customers and services performed in support of the

11


commercial manufacturing process for customers are recorded within cost of sales. Such research and development costs included in cost of sales amounted to $11.3 million and $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Recent Financial Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which was codified as Accounting Standards Codification 606 ("ASC 606") and superseded nearly all existing revenue-recognition guidance. The guidance’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, the guidance creates a five-step model that requires a company to exercise judgment when considering the terms of the contracts and all relevant facts and circumstances. The five steps require a company to identify customer contracts, identify the separate performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and recognize revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied. The guidance allows for either full retrospective adoption, where the standard is applied to all periods presented, or modified retrospective adoption, where the standard is applied only to the most current period presented in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for the Company in fiscal 2019. The Company has adopted the guidance as of July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach applied to contracts that were not completed as of that date. The Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment to the fiscal 2019 opening balance of its accumulated deficit upon adoption of this guidance, which decreased beginning accumulated deficit by $15.1 million.
The following table provides the impact of adopting the guidance on the Company’s financial statements:

The impact of ASC 606 on the Company's consolidated balance sheet is immaterial.
The adoption of ASC 606 resulted in three primary changes in the first quarter as compared to the previous revenue recognition guidance: (a) revenue from commercial product supply is recognized following successful completion of the required quality assurance process where it was previously recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer; (b) earlier recognition of revenue from certain commercial supply contract cancellations is recognized as variable consideration as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied rather than only upon agreement of the amount with the customer; and (c) revenue from sourcing comparator drug product for clinical supply services is recorded net of the cost of procuring it rather than at full value with a corresponding expense. Refer to Note 2 for the Company's revenue recognition policy.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which requires entities to report the service cost component of the net periodic benefit cost in the same income statement line as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees during the reporting period. The other components of the net benefit costs will be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost and below the income from operations subtotal. The ASU will be effective for public reporting entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. The Company adopted this guidance as of July 1, 2018, on a retrospective basis, which had an effect on the consolidated statement of operations for the three months period ended September 30, 2017. The following table summarizes the Company's As Previously Reported and As Adjusted changes to the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017:

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which reduces the complexity of and simplifies the application of hedge accounting by issuers. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this guidance as of July 1, 2018 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies when an entity will apply modification accounting for changes to stock-based compensation arrangements. Modification accounting applies if the value, vesting conditions, or classification of an award changes. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively at the beginning of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this guidance was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which provides additional guidance on the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions of assets or businesses. The ASU is effective for public reporting entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance prospectively at the beginning of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this guidance was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which changes the accounting for equity investments and financial liabilities under the fair value option, and presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. The ASU requires equity investments with readily determinable fair values to be measured at fair value and to recognize change in fair value in net earnings. The ASU is not applicable to equity investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee. It is effective for public reporting entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this guidance at the beginning of fiscal 2019. The adoption of this guidance was not material to the Company's consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Standards Not Adopted as of September 30, 2018
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years and allows for either a retrospective or prospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which permits an entity to reclassify to retained earnings the stranded tax effects caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 on items within accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss). The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new accounting model Credit Expected Credit Losses model ("CECL"). CECL requires earlier recognition of credit losses, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models in current GAAP, which generally require

13


that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard will also apply to receivables arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivables. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will supersede ASC 840 Leases. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets for the rights and obligations created by those leases. The guidance requires enhanced disclosures regarding the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will be effective for public reporting entities in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The guidance is required to be adopted using the modified retrospective approach. The Company anticipates that most of its operating leases will result in the recognition of additional assets and corresponding liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606. The Company generally earns its revenue by supplying goods or providing services under contracts with its customers in three primary revenue streams: manufacturing and commercial product supply, development services, and clinical supply services. The Company measures the revenue from customers based on the consideration specified in its contracts, excluding any sales incentive or amount collected on behalf of a third party.
The company generally expenses sales commissions as incurred because either the amortization period is one year or less, or the balance with an amortization period greater than one year is not material.

Manufacturing & Commercial Product Supply Revenue
Manufacturing and commercial product supply revenue consists of revenue earned by manufacturing products supplied to customers under long-term commercial supply arrangements. The Company recognizes revenue for manufacturing and supplying commercial products as control is transferred to the customer, which is measured based on product that has successfully completed contractually required quality assurance process. Revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for providing these products and services. The contractual performance obligation generally includes manufacture and the completion of product quality release testing procedures specified in the contract. These activities are interdependent and thus are considered to be a single combined performance obligation. Payment is typically due 30 to 90 days after the goods are shipped to the customer based on the payment terms set forth in the applicable customer agreement.

14


Development Services Revenue
Development services contracts generally take the form of short-term, fee-for-service arrangements. Performance obligations vary, but frequently include (1) the delivery of a formulation report, analytical and stability testing report, or other report on product- or molecule-based studies or (2) the manufacture of products under development or otherwise not intended for commercial sale. The transaction prices for these arrangements include fixed consideration of the amounts stated in the contracts for each promised good or service, which are generally considered to be separate performance obligations. The Company recognizes revenue when or as control of each individual performance obligation is transferred to the customer and exercises judgment in determining the timing of revenue recognition by analyzing the point in time or period over which the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the arrangement. Control generally transfers to the customer when services have been completed or the customer has accepted the product or service deliverable and the Company has right to payment based on the terms of the agreement.
In certain arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue over time as the Company satisfies performance obligations. Satisfaction of the performance obligations is measured using an output method measure of progress based on the deliverables provided by or effort expended by the Company. In other arrangements, revenue is recognized when the customer has taken legal title to or accepted the product or service deliverable and the Company has a right to payment based on the terms of the arrangement.
Development services contracts may also include certain success-based milestone payments for completed performance obligations, such as regulatory approval and product validation prior to the commencement of commercial supply. Revenue associated with developmental milestones is considered variable consideration and is typically recognized when the success-based milestone is achieved, and no significant revenue reversal is anticipated.
The Company allocates consideration to each performance obligation based on the relative selling price. Payment is typically due 30 to 90 days following the completion of services provided to the customer based on the payment terms set forth in the applicable customer agreement. Certain development service arrangements require a portion of the contract consideration to be received in advance at the commencement of the contract and is initially recorded as a contract liability.
Clinical Supply Services Revenue
Clinical supply services contracts generally take the form of short-term, fee-for-service arrangements with duration of less than one year. Performance obligations for clinical supply services revenue typically include a combination of the following services: the manufacturing, packaging, storage, distribution, destruction, and inventory management of customer clinical trials materials. Performance obligations can also include the sourcing of comparator drug products on behalf of customers to be used in clinical trials to compare performance with the drug under clinical investigation. In certain arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue over time when the Company satisfies performance obligations. Satisfaction of the performance obligations is measured using an output method measure of progress based on deliverables provided by or effort expended by the Company. In other arrangements, revenue is recognized when the customer has taken legal title or accepted the product or service deliverable and the Company has right to payment based on the terms of the arrangement. Payment is typically due 30 to 90 days following the completion of services provided to the customer based on the payment terms set forth in the applicable customer agreement.
The Company records revenue for comparator sourcing arrangements on a net basis because it is acting as an agent that does not control the product or service before it is transferred to the customer. Payment for comparator sourcing activity is typically received in advance at the commencement of the contract and is initially recorded as a contract liability.
Contract Liabilities
Contract liabilities relate to cash consideration that the Company receives in advance of satisfying the related performance obligations. Changes in the contractual liabilities balance during the three months ended September 30, 2018 are as follows:

Remaining Performance Obligations
For the Softgel Technologies, Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery, and Oral Drug Delivery segments, remaining performance obligations represent firm orders for manufacturing and commercial product supply, including minimum volume commitments and future development services, for which there are incomplete performance obligations. For the Clinical Supply Services segment, remaining performance obligations represent estimated future service revenues from work not yet completed under signed contracts. The remaining performance obligations as of September 30, 2018 were $1,115.9 million, including approximately $301.5 million related to our Clinical Supply Services segment. We expect to recognize approximately 72% of the remaining performance obligations in existence as of September 30, 2018 over the next nine months, with the remaining recognized thereafter.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Juniper Pharmaceuticals Acquisition
On August 14, 2018, Operating Company acquired Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Juniper") through a tender offer and back-end merger, pursuant to the terms of an agreement and plan of merger (the "Juniper Merger Agreement"), and Juniper became a wholly owned subsidiary of Operating Company. Under the terms of the Juniper Merger Agreement, all outstanding options to purchase Juniper shares were canceled in exchange for cash equal to the product of the number of Juniper shares subject to the option and the difference between the price per share paid in the tender offer and the exercise price. Similarly, all outstanding restricted stock units in respect of Juniper shares were canceled in exchange for cash equal to the product of the number of units and the price per share paid in the tender offer. Juniper has expertise in formulation development and supply and augments the Company's pre-existing portfolio of solid-state screening, pre-formulation, formulation, analytical, and bioavailability enhancement solutions, including the development of drug products produced using spray-dried dispersion, with integrated development, analytical, and clinical manufacturing. Juniper also owns the ex-U.S. rights to and supplies for sale to its licensee of such rights CRINONE®, a reproductive therapy. The primary operations of the acquired business are located in owned facilities aggregating 38,000 square feet in Nottingham, U.K. and is now included in the Oral Drug Delivery segment. Results of this segment include the results of Juniper for the period since the acquisition.
The aggregate purchase consideration, net of cash acquired, is $127.5 million, which was funded by cash on hand. As a result of the preliminary fair value allocations, the Company recognized intangible assets of $75.0 million and $11.0 million of product relationships and customer relationships, respectively. The remainder of the preliminary fair value was allocated to tangible assets acquired and goodwill. The fair value allocation is expected to be completed upon finalization of an independent appraisal over the next several months, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.
Catalent Indiana Acquisition
On October 23, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest in Cook Pharmica LLC (now doing business as Catalent Indiana, LLC, "Catalent Indiana") for an aggregate nominal purchase price of $950 million, subject to adjustment. Catalent Indiana is a biologics-focused contract development and manufacturing organization with capabilities across biologics development, clinical, and commercial cell culture manufacturing, formulation, finished-dose manufacturing, and packaging.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Third Amendment
On October 18, 2017, Operating Company completed Amendment No. 3 (the "Third Amendment") to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 20, 2014 (as subsequently amended, the "Credit Agreement"), governing the senior secured credit facilities that provide U.S. dollar, denominated term loans, euro-denominated term loans, and a revolving credit facility. The Third Amendment lowered the interest rate on U.S. dollar-denominated and euro-denominated term loans and the revolving credit facility and extended the maturity dates on the senior secured credit facilities by three years. From the Third Amendment, the applicable rate for U.S. dollar-denominated term loans is LIBOR (the London Interbank Offered Rate, subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus 2.25%, and the applicable rate for euro-denominated term loans is Euribor (the Euro Interbank Offered Rate published by the European Money Markets Institute, subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus 1.75%. The applicable rate for the revolving loans was initially set at LIBOR plus 2.25%, and such rate can additionally be reduced to LIBOR plus 2.00% in future periods based on a measure of Operating Company's total leverage ratio. The term loans and revolving loans will now mature in May 2024 and May 2022, respectively.
On July 27, 2018, the Company completed an underwritten public equity offering (the "2018 Equity Offering") and used the net proceeds coupled with cash on hand to repay $450.0 million of the outstanding borrowings under its U.S. dollar-denominated term loans on July 31, 2018.
Euro-denominated 4.75% Senior Notes due 2024
On December 9, 2016, Operating Company completed a private offering of €380.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Euro Notes"). The Euro Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of the wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries of Operating Company that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities. The Euro Notes were offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and outside the United States only to non-U.S. investors pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Euro Notes will mature on December 15, 2024, bear interest at the rate of 4.75% per annum and are payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year.

18


U.S. Dollar-denominated 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026
On October 18, 2017, Operating Company completed a private offering (the "Debt Offering") of $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "USD Notes"). The USD Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of the wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries of Operating Company that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities. The USD Notes were offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States only to non-U.S. investors pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The USD Notes will mature on January 15, 2026, bear interest at the rate of 4.875% per annum, and are payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2018. The net proceeds of the Debt Offering, after payment of the initial purchasers' discount and related fees and expenses, were used to fund a portion of the consideration for the Catalent Indiana acquisition due at its closing.
Deferred Purchase Consideration
In connection with the acquisition of Catalent Indiana in October 2017, $200.0 million of the $950.0 million aggregate nominal purchase price is payable in $50 million installments, on each of the first four anniversaries of the closing date. The deferred purchase consideration was initially recorded at fair value and included a component of imputed interest.
Bridge Loan Facility
On September 18, 2017, contemporaneous with the Company entering into the agreement to acquire Catalent Indiana, Operating Company entered into a debt commitment letter with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Royal Bank of Canada, RBC Capital Markets, Bank of America, N.A., and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as commitment parties. Pursuant to the debt commitment letter and subject to its terms and conditions, the commitment parties agreed to provide a senior unsecured bridge loan facility (the "Bridge Facility") of up to $700.0 million in the aggregate for the purpose of providing any back-up financing necessary to fund a portion of the consideration to be paid in the acquisition and related fees, costs, and expenses (the "Bridge Loan Commitment"). In connection with entering into the Bridge Facility, Operating Company incurred $6.1 million of associated fees, which was recorded in prepaid expenses and other in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017. Operating Company did not draw on it to fund the acquisition and the Company expensed the $6.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 as part of other income and expense and the facility was closed.
Debt Covenants
Senior Secured Credit Facilities
The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, Operating Company’s (and Operating Company’s restricted subsidiaries’) ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; create liens on assets; engage in mergers and consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock; repay subordinated indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; make investments, loans, or advances; make certain acquisitions; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; amend material agreements governing Operating Company’s subordinated indebtedness; and change Operating Company’s lines of business.
The Credit Agreement also contains change-of-control provisions and certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default. The revolving credit facility requires compliance with a net leverage covenant when there is a 30% or more draw outstanding at a period end. As of September 30, 2018, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Credit Agreement.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement permits Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur certain additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness. None of Operating Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries or Puerto Rico subsidiaries is a guarantor of the loans.
 
Under the Credit Agreement, Operating Company’s ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and paying certain dividends is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (which is defined as “Consolidated EBITDA” in the Credit Agreement). Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definitions in the Credit Agreement, is not defined under GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.
The Euro Notes and the USD Notes
The Indentures governing the Euro Notes and the USD Notes (the "Indentures") contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee more debt or issue certain preferred shares; pay dividends on, repurchase, or make distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other

19


restricted payments; make certain investments; sell certain assets; create liens; consolidate, merge, sell; or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; enter into certain transactions with their affiliates, and designate their subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the Indentures. The Indentures also contain customary events of default including, but not limited to, nonpayment, breach of covenants, and payment or acceleration defaults in certain other indebtedness of Operating Company or certain of its subsidiaries. Upon an event of default, either the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of each of the then-outstanding Euro Notes or the then-outstanding USD Notes, or either of the Trustees under the Indentures, may declare the applicable notes immediately due and payable; or in certain circumstances, the applicable notes will become automatically immediately due and payable. As of September 30, 2018, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Indentures.
Fair Value of Debt Instruments
The estimated fair value of the senior secured credit facility, a Level 2 fair-value estimate, is based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered for debt of the same remaining maturities and considers collateral, if any. The estimated fair value of the Euro and USD Notes, a Level 1 fair-value estimate, is based on the quoted market prices of the instruments. The carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of financial instruments as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018 are as follows:

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2018 excludes the maximum effect of the potential common shares issuable under the employee stock option plan of approximately 2.4 million shares, and excludes restricted share awards of 2.3 million share, because the Company had a net loss for the period and the effect would therefore be anti-dilutive. The computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2017 excludes the effect of 0.3 million shares potentially issuable pursuant to awards granted under the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, because the vesting provisions of those awards specify performance-or market-based conditions that had not been met as of the period end. Further, the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2017 excludes the effect of shares potentially issuable under employee-held stock options and restricted stock units of approximately 0.5 million because they are anti-dilutive.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER COSTS
Restructuring Costs
From time to time, the Company has implemented plans to restructure certain operations, both domestically and internationally. The restructuring plans focused on various aspects of operations, including closing and consolidating certain manufacturing operations, rationalizing headcount and aligning operations in a strategic and more cost-efficient structure. In addition, the Company may incur restructuring charges in the future in cases where a material change in the scope of operation with its business occurs. Employee-related costs consist primarily of severance costs and also include outplacement services provided to employees who have been involuntarily terminated and duplicate payroll costs during transition periods. Facility exit and other costs consist of accelerated depreciation, equipment relocation costs and costs associated with planned facility expansions and closures to streamline Company operations.
Other Costs/(Income)
Other costs/(income) includes settlement charges, net of any insurance recoveries, related to the probable resolution of certain customer claims related to a previous temporary suspension of operations at a softgel manufacturing facility.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the applicable exchange rate on its investments in foreign operations. While the Company does not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, the Company has mitigated its exposure from its investments in its European operations by denominating a portion of its debt in euros. At September 30, 2018, the Company had euro-denominated debt outstanding of $803.4 million that is designated and qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. For non-derivatives designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, the translation gains or losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. The non-hedge portions of the translation gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations. The following table includes net investment hedge activity during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

INCOME TAXES
    
U.S. Tax Reform
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted wide-ranging tax legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "2017 Tax Act"). The 2017 Tax Act significantly revises U.S. tax law by, among other provisions, (a) lowering the applicable U.S. federal statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21%, (b) creating a partial territorial tax system that includes imposing a mandatory one-time transition tax on previously deferred foreign earnings, (c) creating provisions regarding the (1) Global Intangible Low Tax Income ("GILTI"), (2) the Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction, and (3) the Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax ("BEAT"), and (d) eliminating or reducing certain income tax deductions, such as interest expense, executive compensation expenses, and certain employee expenses. While the impact of the mandatory one-time transition tax was recognized in fiscal 2018, the remaining provisions are effective for fiscal years after 2018.
ASC 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740") requires the effects of changes in tax laws to be recognized in the period in which the legislation is enacted. However, due to the complexity and significance of the 2017 Tax Act’s provisions, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), which allows companies to record the tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act on a provisional basis based on a reasonable estimate and then, if necessary, subsequently adjust such amounts during a limited measurement period as more information becomes available. The measurement period ends when a company has obtained, prepared, and analyzed the information necessary to finalize its accounting, but cannot extend beyond one year from enactment. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, there has been no change to the estimates recorded during fiscal 2018.
The new GILTI tax is effective in fiscal 2019. Because of its complexity, the Company continues to evaluate this aspect of the 2017 Tax Act and the corresponding application of ASC 740. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company will consider an accounting policy election of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current-period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company's measurement of its deferred taxes (the “deferred method”). The Company's selection of an accounting policy with respect to the new GILTI tax rules depends, in part, on analyzing its global income to determine whether it expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI and, if so, the related expected impact. Whether the Company expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI depends on not only the Company's current structure and estimated future results in each jurisdiction where it operates but also its intent and ability to modify its current structure. Applying the interim period rules of ASC 740, the impact of the GILTI tax on future U.S. inclusions is immaterial to the quarter. The Company is still evaluating its policy decision regarding whether to record deferred tax on GILTI to the extent such deferred tax is material in future periods.
The Company continues to evaluate the potential impact of all other provisions, including but not limited to the BEAT, FDII, the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense, certain employee expense deductions, and the state tax impact of these provision of the 2017 Tax Act. To the extent these provisions are applicable, the impact of each of these provisions is not material to the Company's three month ended September 30, 2018 results. However, the Company will continue analyzing the effects of all these provisions as additional guidance is expected from the U.S. Treasury Department, the effects of the 2017 Tax Act will be finalized when all information available or no later than the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

22


Other Tax Matters
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in U.S. and non-U.S. pretax income resulting from the Company’s business mix and changes in the tax impact of special items and other discrete tax items, which may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item. Such discrete items include, but are not limited to, changes in foreign statutory tax rates, the amortization of certain assets, and the tax impact of changes in its ASC 740 unrecognized tax benefit reserves. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities around the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. The Company is no longer subject to examinations by the relevant tax authorities for years prior to fiscal year 2009. Under the terms of the 2007 purchase agreement by which the stockholders at that time acquired their interest in the Company, the Company is indemnified by its former owner for tax liabilities that may arise after the 2007 purchase that relate to tax periods prior to April 10, 2007. The indemnification agreement applies to, among other taxes, any and all federal, state, and international income-based taxes as well as related interest and penalties. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, approximately $0.7 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefit are subject to indemnification by the Company's former owner.
ASC 740 includes guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements. This standard provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeal or litigation process, based on the technical merits. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had a total of $2.2 million of unrecognized tax benefits, which is unchanged from the reserve as of June 30, 2018.
As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had a total of $4.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of uncertain tax positions (including accrued interest and penalties). As of these dates, $2.2 million and $2.2 million, respectively, represent the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company has approximately $2.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. As of these dates, the portion of such interest and penalties subject to indemnification by its former owner is $1.6 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

As previously disclosed, the Company notified the trustees of a multi-employer pension plan of its withdrawal from participation in such plan in fiscal 2012. The actuarial review process administered by the plan trustees ended in fiscal 2015. The liability reported reflects the present value of the Company's expected future long-term obligations. The estimated discounted value of the projected contributions related to such plans was $39.0 million and $39.0 million as of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively, and is included within pension liability on the consolidated balance sheets. The annual cash impact associated with the Company's obligations in such plan is approximately $1.7 million per year.

EQUITY AND ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME/(LOSS)
Description of Capital Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. In accordance with the Company's second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, each share of common stock has one vote, and the common stock votes together as a single class.

23


Public Stock Offering
On July 27, 2018, the Company completed the 2018 Equity Offering, which was a public offering through which the Company sold 11.4 million shares, including the underwriters' over-allotment, of its common stock, par value $0.01 ("Common Stock"), at a price of $40.24 per share, before underwriting discounts and commissions. Net of these discounts and commissions and other offering expenses, the Company obtained total net proceeds from the 2018 Equity Offering, including the over-allotment exercise, of $445.5 million. The net proceeds of the 2018 Equity Offering were used to repay a corresponding portion of the outstanding borrowings under its U.S. dollar-denominated term loans.
On September 29, 2017, the Company completed a public offering (the "2017 Equity Offering"), pursuant to which the Company sold 7.4 million shares of Common Stock, including shares sold pursuant to an exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, at a price of $39.10 per share, before underwriting discounts and commissions. Net of these discounts and commissions and other offering expenses, the Company obtained total net proceeds from the 2017 Equity Offering, including the over-allotment exercise, of $277.8 million. The net proceeds of the 2017 Equity Offering were used to fund a portion of the consideration for the Catalent Indiana acquisition due at its closing.
Outstanding Stock

Shares outstanding include shares of unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock included in reportable shares outstanding was 0.5 million shares as of September 30, 2018. Shares of unvested restricted stock are excluded from our calculation of basic weighted average shares outstanding, but their dilutive impact is added back in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.
Stock Repurchase Program
On October 29, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to use up to $100.0 million to repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock. Under the program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise as permitted by applicable federal securities laws. There has been no purchase pursuant to this program as of September 30, 2018.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
SEC inquiry into Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
On August 14, 2018, Operating Company acquired Juniper pursuant to the Juniper Merger Agreement. On November 14, 2016, Juniper filed with the SEC restated audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2015, including the unaudited consolidated financial information for each quarterly period within the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015, and restated unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016 and the related quarters in 2015, in order to correct certain timing errors regarding how it recognized revenue from a supply contract with an affiliate of Merck KGaA. On January 24, 2017, Juniper received a

25


subpoena from the SEC requesting information concerning these restatements and related issues. Juniper responded to the subpoena and is cooperating with the SEC’s inquiry, including the taking of testimony from former Juniper employees and others. The Company understands that the inquiry is ongoing but does not believe the outcome of the investigation will be material to it; nonetheless, the Company cannot provide any assurance regarding that outcome.
Other
From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of any of which could be significant. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against any such litigation and does not currently believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.
From time to time, the Company receives subpoenas or requests for information relating to the business practices and activities of customers or suppliers from various governmental agencies or private parties, including from state attorneys general, the U.S. Department of Justice, and private parties engaged in patent infringement, antitrust, tort, and other litigation. The Company generally responds to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred. The Company expects to incur costs in future periods in connection with future requests.
15.

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

The Company
We are the leading global provider of advanced delivery technologies and development solutions for drugs, biologics, and consumer and animal health products. Our oral, injectable, and respiratory delivery technologies address the full diversity of the pharmaceutical industry, including small molecules, biologics, and consumer and animal health products. Through our extensive capabilities and deep expertise in product development, we help our customers take products to market faster, including nearly half of new drug products approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") in the last decade. Our advanced delivery technology platforms, which include those in our Softgel Technologies, Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery, and Oral Drug Delivery segments, our proven formulation, manufacturing, and regulatory expertise, and our broad and deep intellectual property enable our customers to develop more products and better treatments for patients and consumers. Across both development and delivery, our commitment to reliably supply our customers’ and their patients' needs is the foundation for the value we provide; annually, we produce approximately 73 billion doses for nearly 7,000 customer products or approximately 1 in every 20 doses of such product taken each year by patients and consumers around the world. We believe that through our investments in growth-enabling capacity and capabilities, our ongoing focus on operational and quality excellence, the sales of existing customer products, the introduction of new customer products, our innovation activities and patents, and our entry into new markets, we will continue to benefit from attractive and differentiated margins and realize the growth potential from these areas.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). These standards require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, variable consideration in revenue recognition, inventory and long-lived asset valuation, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, income taxes, derivative financial instruments, self-insurance accruals, loss contingencies, and restructuring charge reserves. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.
There was no material change to our critical accounting policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates from those described in our 2018 10-K, other than recently adopted accounting principles as disclosed in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which adoptions had no material impact on net earnings.
Non-GAAP Performance Metrics
Use of EBITDA from operations
Management measures operating performance based on consolidated earnings from operations before interest expense, expense/(benefit) for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA from operations"). EBITDA from operations is not defined under GAAP, is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.
We believe that the presentation of EBITDA from operations enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe this measure is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business and use this measure for business planning purposes. In addition, given the significant investments that we have made in the past in property, plant, and equipment, depreciation and amortization expenses represent a meaningful portion of our cost structure. We believe that EBITDA from operations will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of our ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt, and to undertake capital expenditures because it eliminates depreciation and amortization expense. We present EBITDA from operations in order to provide supplemental information that we consider relevant for the readers of our consolidated financial statements, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede GAAP measures. Our definition of EBITDA from operations may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to EBITDA from operations is net earnings. Included in this report is a reconciliation of net earnings to EBITDA from operations.
In addition, we evaluate the performance of our segments based on segment earnings before other expense/(income), impairments, restructuring costs, interest expense, income tax expense/(benefit), and depreciation and amortization ("Segment EBITDA").

30


Use of Constant Currency
As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of results on a constant currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we compute constant currency by calculating current-year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. We generally refer to such amounts calculated on a constant currency basis as excluding the impact of foreign exchange. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with GAAP. Results on a constant currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
Other Non-GAAP Measures
Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth are useful measures calculated by the Company to explain the underlying results and trends in the business. Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth are measures used to show current year sales and earnings from existing operations and include joint ventures and revenue from product-participation-related activities entered into within the year. Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth exclude the impact of foreign currency, acquisitions of operating or legal entities, and divestitures within the year. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, performance measures reported in accordance with GAAP. These measures, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with GAAP.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2018 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2017
The below tables summarize our recent two-year results on several financial metrics we use to measure performance. Refer to the discussions below regarding performance and use of key financial metrics.

We adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), as of July 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2018 reflects the application of the new standard while the reported results for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were prepared under the previously effective guidance of ASC 605, Revenue Recognition.

Results for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017 were as follows:

Net revenue increased $15.7 million, or 3%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. The 3% increase in net revenue is driven by 13% growth from acquisitions. We acquired Cook Pharmica LLC (now doing business as Catalent Indiana, LLC, "Catalent Indiana") in October 2017, and Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Juniper") in August 2018. Net revenue decreased 9% without the impact of acquisitions or divestitures primarily related to a reduction in revenue from comparator sourcing arrangements. As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, we recorded comparator sourcing arrangements on a net basis versus a gross basis, which, coupled with reduced comparator volume in the quarter, resulted in a decrease in net revenue of 6%. Net revenue also decreased within our Softgel Technologies segment primarily due to decreased prescription product volume in North America and Europe and lower product participation revenue and within our Oral Drug Delivery segment primarily due to decreased end-market demand within our commercial oral delivery solution platform.

32


Gross Margin
Gross margin increased $10.5 million, or 7%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, primarily as a result of the Catalent Indiana and the Juniper acquisitions. On a constant-currency basis, gross margin, as a percentage of revenue, increased 110 basis points to 26.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 25.8% in the prior-year period. As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, the Company recorded comparator sourcing arrangements on a net basis versus a gross basis, which resulted in an increase to gross margin percentage of 150 basis points.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $8.5 million, or 8%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, primarily due to approximately $10 million of additional expenses related to recently acquired entities, Catalent Indiana and Juniper, which included $6 million of incremental depreciation and amortization expense and $2 million of employee-related costs. Selling, general, and administrative expenses further increased approximately $6 million for additional employee-related costs, $3 million of which was non-cash equity compensation, as compared to the prior-year period. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was partially offset by a reduction to transaction-related expenses of $5 million and a reduction of integration-related costs of $3 million.
Restructuring and Other
Restructuring and other costs of $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 increased $8.8 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, primarily due to increased employee-related actions to further streamline the business. Restructuring expense will vary period-to-period based on site consolidation efforts and other efforts to further streamline the business.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net of $28.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 increased by $3.8 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily driven by a higher average level of outstanding debt associated with the financing and deferred purchase consideration for the Catalent Indiana acquisition in October 2017, partially offset by a $450 million payment on our U.S. dollar-denominated term loans on August 1, 2018, principally funded by our underwritten public equity offering of July 27, 2018 (the "2018 Equity Offering"), ordinary course principal payments on our term loans, and an overall reduction in our interest rates on our senior secured credit facilities compared to the prior-year period.
In October 2017, Operating Company completed a private offering (the "Debt Offering") of USD Notes. The USD Notes bear interest at the rate of 4.875% per annum and are payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year. Concurrent with the Debt Offering, Operating Company completed Amendment No. 3 (the "Third Amendment") to its Credit Agreement, which governs the senior secured credit facilities that provide U.S. dollar-denominated term loans, euro-denominated term loans, and a revolving credit facility. The Third Amendment lowered the interest rate on the term loans and the revolving credit facility. The applicable rate for U.S. dollar-denominated term loans decreased 0.50%, the applicable rate for euro-denominated term loans decreased 0.75%, and the applicable rate for the revolving loans decreased 1.25%. For additional information concerning the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Third Amendment, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
A component of the purchase price for the Catalent Indiana acquisition consists of $200.0 million in deferred purchase consideration payable in four annual $50.0 million installments, the present value of which is accounted for as debt, with the remainder considered imputed interest expense.
Other Expense/(Income), net
Other expense, net was $5.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and was primarily driven by a $4.2 million charge from the partial extinguishment of our U.S. dollar-denominated term loans on August 1, 2018 to reduce our debt discount and deferred financing costs. Other expense, net also includes non-cash foreign currency translation losses in the year of $1.7 million.
Other expense, net of $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 includes non-cash foreign currency translation losses of $5.7 million.

33


Income Tax Expense/(Benefit)
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted wide-ranging tax legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "2017 Tax Act"). The 2017 Tax Act significantly revises U.S. tax law by, among other provisions, (a) lowering the applicable U.S. federal statutory income tax rate from 35% to 21%, (b) creating a partial territorial tax system that includes imposing a mandatory one-time transition tax on previously deferred foreign earnings, (c) creating provisions regarding (1) Global Intangible Low Tax Income ("GILTI"), (2) the Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") deduction, and (3) the Base Erosion Anti-Abuse Tax ("BEAT"), and (d) eliminating or reducing certain income tax deductions, such as interest expense, executive compensation expenses, and certain employee expenses.
The impact to our business resulting from the 2017 Tax Act, including related changes to our tax obligations and effective tax rate in future periods, as well as the one-time enactment-related charges recorded in fiscal 2018 on a provisional basis, are based on a reasonable estimate and are subject to change, and any change could differ materially from our current expectations. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 there has been no change to the estimates recorded during fiscal year 2018.
Certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Act apply to our business for fiscal years after 2018, including (a) GILTI tax, (b) the FDII deduction, (c) the BEAT, and (d) provisions eliminating or reducing certain income tax deductions, such as interest expense, and certain employee expenses. The Company also expects that state taxes will affect and be affected by the 2017 Tax Act. As additional data is gathered, analyzed, and considered in context of the 2017 Tax Act and ASC 740, and further guidance is made available from the U.S. Treasury Department, we may record additional or different tax charges in future periods during the measurement period for recording adjustments prescribed by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 issued by the SEC staff.

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $1.0 million relative to losses from operations before income taxes of $13.4 million. Our benefit for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $1.9 million relative to earnings from operations before income taxes of $1.9 million. The income tax provision for the current period is not comparable to the same period of the prior year due to the impact of the 2017 Tax Act as previously discussed, changes in pretax income over many jurisdictions, and the impact of discrete items. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in our geographic pretax income resulting from our business mix and changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, other special items, and other discrete tax items, which may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

Softgel Technologies net revenue decreased by $14.2 million, or 6%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017. Excluding the reduction of product-participation revenue of 2%, net revenue decreased 2% without the impact of divestitures, driven by decreased end-market volume demand for prescription products primarily in North America and Europe, partially offset by favorable end-market volume demand for global consumer health products.
Softgel Technologies segment EBITDA decreased $0.4 million, or 1%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Excluding the reduction of product participation profit of 9%, segment EBITDA without divestitures increased 7% compared to the prior period, driven primarily by favorable product mix and better absorption of fixed costs across the global softgel network.

Net revenue in our Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery segment increased by $63.3 million, or 69%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Net revenue without acquisitions, increased by 3% due to favorable end-customer demand for our U.S. based drug substance biologics offerings of 6% and increased end-market demand for our European based drug product biologics offerings of 5%, partially offset by decreased revenue within our respiratory and ophthalmic platform primarily as a result of timing of shipments in the prior year of 7%.
Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery segment EBITDA increased by $17.8 million, or 205%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Segment EBITDA without acquisitions decreased by 35%, primarily due to a reduction in sales volumes within our respiratory and ophthalmic platform, due to the timing of shipments in the prior year and lower absorption of fixed costs through lower capacity utilization.
On October 23, 2017, we acquired Catalent Indiana, which increased net revenue and Segment EBITDA in our Biologics and Specialty Drug Delivery segment by 66% and 240%, respectively, in the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the corresponding prior-year period.

Clinical Supply Services net revenue decreased by $31.7 million, or 29%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017. As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, the Company recorded comparator sourcing arrangements on a net basis versus a gross basis, which, coupled with a decrease in comparator sourcing volume, resulted in a decrease to net revenue by 30%, partially offset by a 1% increase in revenue due to higher volume in our storage and distribution business.
Clinical Supply Services segment EBITDA increased by $3.6 million, or 22%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily due to increased sales volumes and favorable mix in our storage and distribution business and improved capacity utilization across the network.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources and Uses of Cash
Our principal source of liquidity has been cash flows generated from operations and certain financing activities for acquisitions. The principal uses of cash are to fund planned operating and capital expenditures, business or asset acquisitions, interest payments on debt, and any mandatory or discretionary principal payments on debt issuances. As of September 30, 2018, Operating Company had available a $200 million revolving credit facility that matures in May 2022 (following the Third Amendment in October 2017), the capacity of which is reduced by $5.2 million in outstanding letters of credit. The revolving credit facility includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit and for short-term borrowings, referred to as swing-line borrowings. As of September 30, 2018, we had no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
On October 29, 2015, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program to use up to $100.0 million to repurchase shares of our outstanding common stock. Under the program, we are authorized to repurchase shares through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise as permitted by applicable federal securities laws. There has been no purchase pursuant to this program as of September 30, 2018.

Operating Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, cash provided by operating activities was $41.2 million, compared to $83.7 million for the corresponding prior-year period. Cash flow from operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2018 decreased due to a decrease in earnings from operations before income tax and higher inventory levels during the current-year three-month period compared to the prior-year period.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, cash used in investing activities was $165.8 million compared to $42.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, primarily driven by $127.5 million of cash paid for the acquisition of Juniper in August 2018, net of cash acquired. During the prior-year three-month period, there was no completed business acquisition. The increase in cash used in investing activities was partially offset by a decrease in cash used in acquisitions of property, plant, and equipment, which totaled $38.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $42.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2017.
Financing Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, cash used in financing activities was $18.8 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $263.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The cash used in financing activities during the current three-month period is primarily driven by $450 million used in a partial paydown of the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan in July 2018, offset by net proceeds of $445.5 million raised as part of the 2018 Equity Offering. In the 2018 Equity Offering, we sold 11.4 million shares, including the underwriters' over-allotment, of our common stock, par value $0.01 ("Common Stock"), at a price to the public of $40.24 per share before underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds of $445.5 million include the effect of discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. We used the net proceeds to repay a corresponding portion of the outstanding borrowings under the U.S. dollar-denominated term loans. The cash provided by financing activities in the prior-year three-month period was primarily driven by $277.8 million in net proceeds raised in a public offering of our Common Stock in September 2017 (the "2017 Equity Offering"). In the 2017 Equity Offering, we sold 7.4 million shares, including shares sold pursuant to an exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, at a price of $39.10 per share, before underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds of $277.8 million include the effect of these discounts and commissions and other offering expenses. The net proceeds of the 2017 Equity Offering were used to fund a portion of the initial consideration for the Catalent Indiana acquisition.
Guarantees and Security
Senior Secured Credit Facilities
All obligations under the Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured by substantially all of the following assets of Operating Company and each guarantor (Operating Company's parent entity and each of Operating Company's material domestic subsidiaries), subject to certain exceptions:
a pledge of 100% of the capital stock of Operating Company and 100% of the equity interests directly held by Operating Company and each guarantor in any wholly owned material subsidiary of Operating Company or any guarantor (which pledge, in the case of any non-U.S. subsidiary of a U.S. subsidiary, will not include more than 65% of the voting stock of such non-U.S. subsidiary); and
a security interest in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible assets of Operating Company and of each guarantor, subject to certain limited exceptions.

39


The Euro Notes and the USD Notes
All obligations under the Euro Notes and the USD Notes are general, unsecured, and subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the guarantors to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The Euro Notes and the USD Notes are each separately guaranteed by all of Operating Company's wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the senior secured credit facilities. Neither the Euro Notes nor the USD Notes are guaranteed by either PTS Intermediate Holdings LLC or Catalent, Inc.
Debt Covenants
Senior Secured Credit Facilities
The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, Operating Company’s (and Operating Company’s restricted subsidiaries’) ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; create liens on assets; engage in mergers and consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock; repay subordinated indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; make investments, loans, or advances; make certain acquisitions; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; amend material agreements governing Operating Company’s subordinated indebtedness; and change Operating Company’s lines of business.
The Credit Agreement also contains change-of-control provisions and certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default. The revolving credit facility requires compliance with a net leverage covenant when there is a 30% or more draw outstanding at a period end. As of September 30, 2018, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Credit Agreement.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement permits Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur certain additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness. None of Operating Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries or Puerto Rico subsidiaries is a guarantor of the loans.
Under the Credit Agreement, Operating Company's ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and paying certain dividends is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (which is defined as "Consolidated EBITDA" in the Credit Agreement). Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definitions in the Credit Agreement, is not defined under GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.
As market conditions warrant, we and our affiliates may from time to time seek to purchase our outstanding debt in privately negotiated or open-market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitation contained in the Credit Agreement, any purchase made by us may be funded by the use of cash on our balance sheet or the incurrence of new secured or unsecured debt. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchase may be with respect to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, with the attendant reduction in the trading liquidity of such class or series. In addition, any such purchases made at prices below the “adjusted issue price” (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) may result in taxable cancellation of indebtedness income to us, which amounts may be material, and in related adverse tax consequences to us.
The Euro Notes and the USD Notes
The Indentures governing the Euro Notes and the USD Notes (the "Indentures") contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee more debt or issue certain preferred shares, pay dividends on, repurchase, or make distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; make certain investments; sell certain assets; create liens; consolidate, merge, sell, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; enter into certain transactions with their affiliates; and designate their subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations and qualifications as set forth in the Indentures. The Indentures also contain customary events of default including, but not limited to, nonpayment, breach of covenants, and payment or acceleration defaults in certain other indebtedness of Operating Company or certain of its subsidiaries. Upon an event of default, either the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of each of the then-outstanding Euro Notes or the then-outstanding USD Notes, or either of the Trustees under the Indentures, may declare the applicable notes immediately due and payable, or in certain circumstances, the applicable notes will become automatically immediately due and payable. As of September 30, 2018, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Indentures.
As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the amounts of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries were $169.5 million and $124.7 million, respectively, out of the total consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $266.1 million and $410.2 million, respectively. These balances are dispersed across many locations around the world.

Interest Rate Risk Management
A portion of the debt used to finance our operations is exposed to interest-rate fluctuations. We may use various hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create an appropriate mix of fixed- and floating-rate assets and liabilities. Historically, we have used interest-rate swaps to manage the economic effect of variable-rate interest obligations associated with our floating-rate term loans so that the interest payable on the term loans effectively becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest-rate changes on our future interest expense. As of September 30, 2018, we did not have any interest-rate swap agreement in place that would have the economic effect of modifying the variable-rate interest obligations associated with our floating-rate term loans.
Currency Risk Management
We are exposed to fluctuations in the euro-U.S. dollar exchange rate on our investments in our foreign operations in Europe. While we do not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, we have mitigated the exposure of our investments in our European operations by denominating a portion of our debt in euros. At September 30, 2018, we had $803.4 million of euro-denominated debt outstanding that qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. Refer to Note 10 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of net investment hedge activity in the period.
From time to time, we may use forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure to the variability of cash flows primarily related to the foreign exchange rate changes of future foreign currency transaction costs. In addition, we may use such contracts to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities. Currently, we do not use any forward foreign currency exchange contracts. We expect to continue to evaluate hedging opportunities for foreign currency in the future.
Contractual Obligations
Besides the change in our long-term obligations related to the $450.0 million partial paydown of outstanding borrowings under Operating Company's U.S. dollar-denominated term loans on July 31, 2018, there has been no significant change to our contractual obligations since our Fiscal 2018 10-K. Refer to Note 6 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a further discussion regarding our long-term obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than operating leases and outstanding letters of credit as discussed above, we do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2018.

Item 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations as a result of certain market risks. These market risks primarily relate to changes in interest rates associated with our long-term debt obligations and foreign exchange rate changes.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company has historically used interest-rate swaps to manage the economic effect of variable-rate interest obligations associated with our floating-rate term loans so that the interest payable on the term loans effectively becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest-rate changes on our future interest expense. As of September 30, 2018, we did not have any interest-rate swap agreements in place that would either have the economic effect of modifying the variable-rate interest obligations associated with our floating-rate term loans or would be considered an effective cash flow hedge for financial reporting purposes.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
By the nature of our global operations, we are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations resulting from foreign exchange rate variation. These exposures are transactional and translational in nature. Since we manufacture and sell our products throughout the world, our foreign-currency risk is diversified. Principal drivers of this diversified foreign-exchange exposure include the European euro, British pound, Argentinean peso, Brazilian real, and Australian dollar. Our transactional exposure arises from the purchase and sale of goods and services in currencies other than the functional currency of our operational units. We also have exposure related to the translation of financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, the functional currency of Operating Company. The financial statements of our operations outside the U.S. are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Adjustments to translate the assets and liabilities of these foreign operations in U.S. dollars are accumulated as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) utilizing period-end exchange rates. Foreign-currency transaction gains and losses calculated by utilizing weighted average exchange rates for the period are included in the statements of operations in other expense/(income), net. Such foreign-currency transaction gains and losses include inter-company loans denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies.

Item 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any control or procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer, and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has 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 on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
In October 2017, the Company acquired Catalent Indiana. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we continued to integrate Catalent Indiana into the Company’s financial reporting processes and procedures and internal control over financial reporting. As part of this process, we have undertaken efforts to significantly enhance the internal controls of Catalent Indiana, which were not subject to the internal control requirements applicable to U.S. public companies prior to our acquisition, to bring them in line with our internal controls over financial reporting, and those efforts are ongoing.

PART II.    OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
SEC inquiry into Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
On August 14, 2018, Operating Company acquired Juniper. On November 14, 2016, Juniper filed with the SEC restated audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2015, including the unaudited consolidated financial information for each quarterly period within the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015, and restated unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016 and the related quarters in 2015, in order to correct certain timing errors regarding how it recognized revenue from a supply contract with an affiliate of Merck KGaA. On January 24, 2017, Juniper received a subpoena from the SEC requesting information concerning these restatements and related issues. Juniper responded to the subpoena and is cooperating with the SEC’s inquiry, including the taking of testimony from former Juniper employees and others. The Company understands that the inquiry is ongoing but does not believe the outcome of the investigation will be material to it; nonetheless, the Company cannot provide any assurance regarding that outcome.
Other
From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of any of which could be significant. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against any such litigation and does not currently believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.
From time to time, the Company receives subpoenas or requests for information relating to the business practices and activities of customers or suppliers from various governmental agencies or private parties, including from state attorneys general, the U.S. Department of Justice, and private parties engaged in patent infringement, antitrust, tort, and other litigation. The Company generally responds to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred. The Company expects to incur costs in future periods in connection with future requests.
Item 1A.
