STRYKER CORPORATION
2023 Third Quarter Form 10-Q
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
General Information
Management believes the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary to fairly present the financial position of Stryker Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Stryker," the "Company," "we," "us" or "our") on September 30, 2023 and the results of operations for the three and nine months 2023. The results of operations included in these Consolidated Financial Statements may not necessarily be indicative of our annual results. These statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022. Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to prior year's segment operating income to conform with current year presentation in our Consolidated Financial Statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
We evaluate all Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) for consideration of their applicability. ASUs not included in our disclosures were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
NOTE 2 - REVENUE RECOGNITION
Our policies for recognizing sales have not changed from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022.
We disaggregate our net sales by business and geographic location for each of our segments as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and certainty of our net sales and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Beginning in the first quarter 2023 we consolidated Other MedSurg and Neurotechnology into Endoscopy as Other MedSurg and Neurotechnology (primarily Sustainability Solutions) has been fully integrated into our Endoscopy business. Endoscopy includes sales related to Other of $84 and $72 for the three months 2023 and 2022 and $252 and $218 for the nine months 2023 and 2022. We have reflected these changes in all historical periods presented.

Contract Assets and Liabilities
On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 contract assets recorded in our Consolidated Balance Sheets were not significant.
Our contract liabilities arise as a result of consideration received from customers at inception of contracts for certain businesses or where the timing of billing for services precedes satisfaction of our performance obligations. This occurs primarily when payment is received upfront for certain multi-period extended service contracts. Our contract liabilities of $788 and $741 on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are classified within accrued expenses and other liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities within our Consolidated Balance Sheets based on the timing of when we expect to complete our performance obligations.
Dollar amounts are in millions except per share amounts or as otherwise specified.

NOTE 4 - DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
We use operational and economic hedges, foreign currency exchange forward contracts, net investment hedges (both derivative and non-derivative financial instruments) and interest rate derivative instruments to manage the impact of currency exchange and interest rate fluctuations on earnings, cash flow and equity. We do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. We are exposed to potential credit loss in the event of nonperformance by counterparties on our outstanding derivative instruments but do not anticipate nonperformance by any of our counterparties. Should a counterparty default, our maximum loss exposure is the asset balance of the instrument. We have not changed our hedging strategies, accounting practices or objectives from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022.

We had €1.5 billion at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 in certain forward currency contracts designated as net investment hedges to hedge a portion of our investments in certain of our entities with functional currencies denominated in Euros. In addition to these derivative financial instruments designated as net investment hedges, we had €4.9 billion and €4.4 billion at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 of senior unsecured notes designated as net investment hedges to selectively hedge portions of our investment in certain international subsidiaries. The currency effects of our Euro-denominated senior unsecured notes are reflected in AOCI within shareholders' equity where they offset gains and losses recorded on our net investment in international subsidiaries.
The total after-tax gain (loss) recognized in OCI related to designated net investment hedges was $42 in the nine months 2023.

STRYKER CORPORATION
2023 Third Quarter Form 10-Q
Pretax gains (losses) on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges of $35 and net investment hedges of $31 recorded in AOCI are expected to be reclassified to cost of sales and other income (expense), net in earnings within 12 months of September 30, 2023. This cash flow hedge reclassification is primarily due to the sale of inventory that includes previously hedged purchases. A component of the AOCI amounts related to net investment hedges is reclassified over the life of the hedge instruments as we elected to exclude the initial value of the component related to the spot-forward difference from the effectiveness assessment.
Interest Rate Hedges
Pretax gains of $5 recorded in AOCI related to other interest rate hedges closed in conjunction with debt issuances are expected to be reclassified to other income (expense), net in earnings within 12 months of September 30, 2023. The cash flow effect of interest rate hedges is recorded in cash flow from operations.
NOTE 5 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Our policies for managing risk related to foreign currency, interest rates, credit and markets and our process for determining fair value have not changed from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2022.
In the third quarter 2022 we determined that certain commercial and regulatory milestones related to technology acquired in the purchase of Mobius Imaging and Cardan Robotics were no longer probable of being achieved and recorded a $110 reduction in the fair value of contingent consideration reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses.
In the second quarter 2023 we recorded $192 of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Cerus Endovascular Limited (Cerus) described in Note 7.
There were no significant transfers into or out of any level of the fair value hierarchy in 2023.

On September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 the aggregate difference between the cost and fair value of available-for-sale marketable securities was nominal. Interest on cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and marketable securities income was $15 and $26 in the three months and $40 and $61 in the nine months 2023 and 2022, which was recorded in other income (expense), net.
Our investments in available-for-sale marketable securities had a minimum credit quality rating of A2 (Moody's), A (Standard & Poor's) and A (Fitch). We do not plan to sell the investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity.
NOTE 6 - CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS
We are involved in various ongoing proceedings, legal actions and claims arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings related to product, labor, intellectual property and other matters, the most significant of which are more fully described below. The outcomes of these matters will generally not be known for prolonged periods of time. In certain of the legal proceedings the claimants seek damages as well as other compensatory and equitable relief that could result in the payment of significant claims and settlements and/or the imposition of injunctions or other equitable relief. For legal matters for which management had sufficient information to reasonably estimate our future obligations, a liability representing management's best estimate of the probable loss, or the minimum of the range of probable losses when a best estimate within the range is not known, is recorded. The estimates are based on consultation with legal counsel, previous settlement experience and settlement strategies. If actual outcomes are less favorable than those estimated by management, additional expense may be incurred, which could unfavorably affect future operating results. We are self-insured for certain claims and expenses. The ultimate cost to us with respect to product liability claims could be materially different than the amount of the current estimates and accruals and could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In April 2022 the United States District Court for the District of Delaware issued a judgment following a jury verdict in favor of PureWick Corporation (PureWick) for its 2019 complaint seeking patent infringement damages related to our PrimaFit and PrimoFit products. Following a jury trial, the court awarded damages related to this complaint and we recorded charges of $28 in March 2022. Stryker plans to appeal the results of the trial. If ultimately successful, PureWick may seek to recover its legal fees. In June 2022 PureWick filed a motion to enhance the damages awarded, which the court denied in March 2023. In 2022 PureWick also filed a separate complaint seeking additional patent infringement damages related to our current PrimaFit products. A trial for this matter is currently set for December 2023.
Dollar amounts are in millions except per share amounts or as otherwise specified.

STRYKER CORPORATION
2023 Third Quarter Form 10-Q
We are currently investigating whether certain business activities in certain foreign countries violated provisions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and have engaged outside counsel to conduct these investigations. We have been contacted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, United States Department of Justice and certain other regulatory authorities and are cooperating with these agencies. At this time we are unable to predict the outcome of the investigations or the potential impact, if any, on our financial statements.
Recall Matters
We have conducted voluntary recalls of certain products, including our Rejuvenate and ABG II Modular-Neck hip stems and certain lot-specific sizes and offsets of LFIT Anatomic CoCr V40 Femoral Heads. Additionally, we are responsible for certain product liability claims, primarily related to certain hip products sold by Wright Medical Group N.V. (Wright) prior to its 2014 divestiture of the OrthoRecon business.
We have incurred, and expect to incur in the future, costs associated with the defense and settlement of claims and lawsuits related to our recalls. Based on the information that has been received, we have recorded reserves of $198, representing our best estimate of probable loss related to recall matters globally. The final outcomes of these matters are dependent on many factors that are difficult to predict. Accordingly the ultimate cost related to these matters may be materially different than the amount of our current estimate and accruals and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows.

NOTE 7 - ACQUISITIONS
We acquire stock in companies and various assets that continue to support our capital deployment and product development strategies. In the nine months 2023 and 2022 cash paid for acquisitions, net of cash acquired was $390 and $2,563.
On May 2, 2023 we acquired Cerus for net cash consideration of $289 and up to $225 in future milestone payments that had a fair value of $192 at the acquisition date. Cerus designs, develops and manufactures neurovascular products used for the treatment of hemorrhagic stroke. Cerus is part of our Neurovascular business within MedSurg and Neurotechnology. Goodwill attributable to the acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
In February 2022 we completed the acquisition of Vocera Communications, Inc. (Vocera) for $79.25 per share, or an aggregate purchase price of $2.6 billion, net of cash acquired ($3.0 billion including convertible notes). Vocera is a leader in the digital care coordination and communication category. Vocera is part of our Medical business within MedSurg and Neurotechnology. Goodwill attributable to the acquisition reflects the strategic benefits of expanding our presence in adjacent markets, diversifying our product portfolio, advancing innovations,
and accelerating our digital aspirations. This goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
In the nine months 2022 note holders elected to redeem the 1.50% and 0.50% convertible notes assumed in the Vocera acquisition for $101 and $324. These repayments are classified as financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Share-based awards for Vocera employees vested upon our acquisition and a charge of $132 was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2022.

We have lines of credit issued by various financial institutions that are available to fund our day-to-day operating needs. Our credit facilities require us to comply with financial and other covenants. We were in compliance with all covenants on September 30, 2023.
In August 2023 we repaid the remaining balance of $650 on the $1.5 billion term loan scheduled to mature on February 22, 2025. We also issued €500 of floating rate senior notes due November 16, 2024. The notes bear interest at a base rate based on the three-month Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR) plus 0.3%. The notes are callable at February 16, 2024, May 16, 2024 or October 16, 2024 either by us or at the option of the notes holders. These notes are classified within current maturities of debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2023.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
Our effective tax rates were 20.4% and 17.4% in the three and nine months 2023 and 0.0% and 6.6% in the three and nine months 2022. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months 2023 and 2022 reflect the continued lower effective income tax rates as a result of our European operations and certain discrete tax items. The effective tax rates for the three and nine months 2022 also reflect income tax benefits of $162 due to the effective settlement of the United States federal income tax audit for years 2014 through 2018. In addition, the effective tax rate for the nine months 2022 reflects the reversal of deferred income tax on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as our revised capital plan determined that certain cash outside of the United States would no longer need to be repatriated during the period previously contemplated.
