Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]

Disposal Groups, Including Discontinued Operations, Disclosure

2.    DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On June 30, 2023 (the Distribution Date), Labcorp completed the previously announced separation (the Separation or spin-off) from the Company of Fortrea Holdings Inc. (Fortrea), formerly the Company's Clinical Development and Commercialization Services (CDCS) business, into a separate, publicly-traded company. All historical operating results of Fortrea are presented as Discontinued Operations, net of tax, in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The spin-off is expected to be treated as tax-free for the Company and its shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

The spin-off of Fortrea from Labcorp was achieved through the Company’s pro-rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding shares of Fortrea common stock to holders of record of Labcorp common stock. Each holder of record of Labcorp common stock received one share of Fortrea common stock for every share of Labcorp common stock held at 5:00 p.m., Burlington, North Carolina, time on June 20, 2023, the record date for the distribution.

In June 2023, Fortrea, prior to the Separation and while a subsidiary of the Company, issued $570.0 of 7.500% senior secured notes due 2030 (the Fortrea Notes). The proceeds from the Fortrea Notes were used to fund cash payments of

approximately $1,600.0 to the Company in connection with the Separation. The Company does not guarantee the Fortrea Notes following the Separation. Also in June 2023, Fortrea entered into three floating secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) credit facilities totaling $1,520.0. These are comprised of a $450.0 Revolver maturing June 30, 2028; a $500.0 Term Loan A maturing June 30, 2028; and a $570.0 Term Loan B maturing June 30, 2030.

In connection with the spin-off, the Company entered into several agreements with Fortrea on or prior to the Distribution Date that, among other things, provide a framework for the Company’s relationship with Fortrea after the spin-off, including a separation and distribution agreement, a tax matters agreement, an employee matters agreement, and a transition services agreement. These agreements contain the key provisions relating to the spin-off, including provisions relating to the principal intercompany transactions required to effect the spin-off, the conditions to the spin-off and provisions governing the relationship between Fortrea and the Company after the spin-off. The costs to provide these services are included in operating income but the service fees are included in other income.
