NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company”) are prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and with Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company's audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, the Company's quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Note 2 — New accounting standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. This new guidance, collectively with related guidance provided by the FASB, is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter 2018 and expects to use the modified retrospective method of adoption by recognizing the cumulative effect of adopting this guidance as an adjustment to the Company's opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2018. Although the Company's evaluation of this guidance is ongoing, based on its assessment to date, the Company believes that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that will change the requirements for accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees (including lessees under both leases classified as finance leases, which are to be classified based on criteria similar to that applicable to capital leases under current guidance, and leases classified as operating leases) will recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, initially measured as the present value of lease payments under the lease. Under current guidance, operating leases are not recognized on the balance sheet. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; the guidance provides certain practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance designed to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including, among other things, guidance related to accounting for income taxes,

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

(Unaudited)

modification of the criteria for classification of awards as either equity awards or liability awards where an employer withholds shares from an employee's share-based award for tax withholding purposes, and classification on the statement of cash flows of cash payments to a tax authority by an employer that withholds shares from an employee's award for tax withholding purposes. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The Company has applied the new guidance requiring recognition of excess tax deficiencies and tax benefits in the income statement, rather than in additional paid-in-capital, as previously required. The adoption of the new standard increased net income and cash flows from operating activities by $1.5 million and $5.9 million and increased diluted earnings per share by $0.03 and $0.13 for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively. The Company will continue to estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the time of grant, rather than recognize actual forfeitures as they occur, as permitted under the new guidance.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance with regard to eight specific issues pertaining to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance should generally be adopted using a retrospective transition method for each period presented. The Company believes that its adoption of the new guidance will not have a material impact on its cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance requiring companies to recognize the income tax effects of intra-entity sales and transfers of assets, other than inventory, in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) in the period in which the transfer occurs. Previously, recognition was prohibited until the assets were sold to an outside party or otherwise utilized. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify the definition of a “business,” with the objective of assisting entities in evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition (or disposal) of assets or as an acquisition of a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. The guidance generally defines a business as an integrated set of activities and assets (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The guidance further provides that, to be considered a business, a set must meet specified requirements. However, the guidance also states that, if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (subject to specified exceptions) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not considered a business and no further analysis is required. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance permits early adoption, and the Company adopted this guidance during the fourth quarter 2017. The Company does not anticipate that the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the quantitative test for goodwill impairment. Under current guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the entity must determine the implied value of goodwill. This determination is made by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole as if the reporting unit had just been acquired. Under the new guidance, a determination of the implied value of goodwill will no longer be required; a goodwill impairment will be equal to the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and any interim goodwill impairment tests within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans. The guidance requires that these employers disaggregate specified components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost (collectively, "net benefit cost"). Specifically, the guidance generally requires employers to present in the income statement the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income

statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and generally is required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations.

In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance with the objective of improving the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements. The new guidance provides for changes to current designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and to the method of presenting hedge results. In addition, the new guidance includes certain targeted improvements to ease the application of current guidance related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.

From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by the Company as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and, unless otherwise indicated above, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

On October 2, 2017, the Company acquired NeoTract, Inc. ("NeoTract"). See Note 16, Subsequent events, for additional information related to this acquisition.

During the nine months ended October 1, 2017, the Company completed three acquisitions, all of which were accounted for as business combinations.

On February 17, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Vascular Solutions, Inc. (“Vascular Solutions”) pursuant to a merger transaction. Vascular Solutions is a medical device company that develops and markets products for use in minimally invasive coronary and peripheral vascular procedures. In connection with the merger, subject to specified exclusions, each share of common stock of Vascular Solutions (each, a "Share" and collectively, the “Shares”) was converted into the right to receive $56.00 per Share in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding tax. In addition, each outstanding option or similar right to purchase Shares issued under the Vascular Solutions’ Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the "Company Options") was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the acquisition and (ii) the excess, if any, of $56.00 over the exercise price of such Company Option. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company in connection with the merger was approximately $975.5 million, net of cash acquired.

For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 the Company incurred $0.1 million and $8.3 million, respectively, in transaction expenses associated with the Vascular Solutions acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of income. For the three months ended October 1, 2017, the Company recorded post acquisition revenue and operating profit of $43.9 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to Vascular Solutions. For the nine months endedOctober 1, 2017, the Company recorded post acquisition revenue and operating loss of $110.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively. Financial information of Vascular Solutions is presented within the "All Other" category in the Company's presentation of segment information.

The Vascular Solutions acquisition was financed utilizing borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated January 20, 2017 (the "Credit Agreement"), which is described in Note 7.

2016 acquisitions

The Company made the following acquisitions during 2016 (the "2016 acquisitions"), which, with the exception of its acquisition of the outstanding noncontrolling interest in Teleflex Medical Private Limited, were accounted for as business combinations:

• On July 1, 2016, the Company, which previously owned a 74% controlling interest in its Indian affiliate, Teleflex Medical Private Limited, acquired the remaining 26% ownership interest from the noncontrolling shareholders. Teleflex Medical Private Limited is part of the Company's Asia reportable operating segment. As this acquisition did not result in a change in the Company's control of the entity, the Company recognized the $7.5 million excess of the purchase price of the noncontrolling interest over its carrying value as equity.

• During the second quarter 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of two medical device and supplies distributors in New Zealand.

The aggregate purchase price paid in connection with the 2016 acquisitions was $22.8 million. The results of operations of the acquired businesses and assets are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income from their respective acquisition dates. Pro forma information is not presented, as the operations of the acquired businesses are not significant to the overall operations of the Company.

Amended and restated senior credit facility

On January 20, 2017, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides for a five year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $750.0 million. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) by substantially all of the material domestic subsidiaries of the Company and are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by the Company and each guarantor. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement is January 20, 2022, and the term loan facility will mature on February 17, 2022.

At the Company’s option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or at an alternate base rate, which generally is defined as the highest of (i) the publicly announced prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, (ii) 0.5% above the federal funds rate and (iii) 1% above adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.50%, in each case subject to adjustment based on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the

(Unaudited)

Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination). Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00%.

The Company is required to maintain a total consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 4.50 to 1.00 and a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Senior Secured Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination) of not more than 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination to Consolidated Interest Expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

The Company capitalized $12.0 million related to transaction fees, including underwriters’ discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement. In addition, because the Company's entry into the Credit Agreement was considered a partial extinguishment of the indebtedness under its previously outstanding credit agreement, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.4 million during the first quarter 2017.

3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes

Exchange Transactions

On January 5, 2017, pursuant to separate, privately negotiated agreements between the Company and certain holders (the "Holders") of its 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes"), the Company paid cash and common stock (the "Exchange Consideration") to the Holders in exchange for $91.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes (the "Exchange Transactions"). The Exchange Consideration paid to each of the Holders per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes was equal to: (i) $1,000 in cash, (ii) a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the amount of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes in excess of the $1,000 principal amount (the "Conversion Shares"), calculated on the basis of the average daily volume weighted average price per share of Company common stock over a specified period (the "Average Daily VWAP"), (iii) an inducement payment in additional shares of common stock (the "Inducement Shares") calculated based on the Average Daily VWAP; and (iv) cash in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the closing date. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company paid the Holders aggregate cash consideration of approximately $93.2 million (which includes approximately $1.5 million in accrued but previously unpaid interest) and issued and delivered to the Holders approximately 0.93 million shares of Company common stock (including both Conversion Shares and Inducement Shares). The Company funded the $93.2 million cash payment constituting part of the Exchange Consideration through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.2 million during the first quarter 2017.

In connection with its entry into the Exchange Transactions, the Company also entered into bond hedge unwind agreements (the "Hedge Unwind Agreements") and warrant unwind agreements (the "Warrant Unwind Agreements") with the dealer counterparties to the convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions that were effected at the time of the initial issuance of the Convertible Notes. Under the Hedge Unwind Agreements, the number of then-outstanding call options issued to the Company under the Convertible Note hedge transactions (the "Call Options") was reduced to reflect proportionately the reduction in the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes following the Exchange Transactions. Under the Warrant Unwind Agreements, the number of warrants then held by the dealer counterparties also was reduced. On a net basis, after giving effect to the Hedge Unwind Agreements and Warrant Unwind Agreements, the Company received 0.12 million shares of Company common stock from the dealer counterparties.

Settlement and Conversions Upon Maturity

The Convertible Notes matured on August 1, 2017 (the "Maturity Date"). On the Maturity Date, the Company repaid the remaining $44.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes outstanding, together with unpaid interest due and owing on the Convertible Notes (the “Cash Payment”). In connection with the maturity of the Convertible Notes, $44.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes were tendered to the Company

for conversion (the "Converted Notes"). On the Maturity Date, in addition to the Cash Payment, the Company delivered to the holders of the Converted Notes, in the aggregate, 0.5 million shares of Company common stock.

In connection with the conversions described above, the Company exercised the outstanding Call Options, and the counterparties to the Convertible Note hedge transactions delivered to the Company 0.5 million shares of Company common stock. The counterparties continue to hold warrants to purchase Company common stock that they acquired at the time of the initial issuance of the Convertible Notes. At October 1, 2017, the warrants, which entitle the holders to purchase 724,648 shares at an exercise price of $74.65 per share, had an intrinsic value of $121.3 million. The warrants are divided into components that expire ratably over a 180 day period commencing November 1, 2017.

Fair Value of Long-Term Borrowings

The following table provides information regarding the fair value of the Company’s debt as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, categorized by the level of inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value:

	October 1, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(Dollars in thousands)
Level 1	$	—	$	344,765
Level 2	2,254,376		929,362
Total	$	2,254,376	$	1,274,127

To determine the fair value of the debt categorized as Level 2 in the table above, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve.

Note 8 — Financial instruments

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to manage exposure related to foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are used to manage near term foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, the Company recognized a loss related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts of $0.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, the Company recognized a loss related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts of $0.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

The following table presents the locations in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and fair value of derivative financial instruments as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	October 1, 2017		December 31, 2016

The total notional amount for all open foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $76.1 million and $101.8 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $112.3 million and $73.4 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of October 1, 2017 have durations of twelve months or less.

There was no ineffectiveness related to the Company’s cash flow hedges during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. A portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the United States, however, include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the creditworthiness of those countries and the financial stability of their economies. Certain of the Company’s customers, particularly in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided, raising collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers. As a result, the Company continues to closely monitor the allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to these customers. The following table provides information regarding the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts, the aggregate net current and long-term trade accounts receivable related to customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and the percentage of the Company’s total net current and long-term trade accounts receivable represented by these customers' trade accounts receivable at October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	October 1, 2017			December 31, 2016
	(Dollars in thousands)
Allowance for doubtful accounts(1)	$	10,084		$	8,630
Current and long-term trade accounts receivable in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal (2)	$	50,613		$	51,098
Percentage of total net current and long-term trade accounts receivable - Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal	16.9		%	19.3		%

(1) The current portion of the allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.1 million and $2.0 million as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and was recognized in accounts receivable, net.

(2) The long-term portion of trade accounts receivable, net from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal at October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $3.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively. In January 2017, the Company sold $16.1 million of receivables outstanding with respect to publicly funded hospitals in Italy for $16.0 million.

For the nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, net revenues from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal were $96.0 million and $95.8 million, respectively.

Note 9 — Fair value measurement

For a description of the fair value hierarchy, see Note 10 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The following tables provide information regarding the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities reported at fair value among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended October 1, 2017.

The following table provides information regarding changes, during the nine months ended October 1, 2017, in Level 3 financial liabilities related to contingent consideration, which are described below in this Note 9 under "Valuation Techniques":

	Contingent consideration

	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance - December 31, 2016	$	7,102
Additions (1)	5,369

Revaluations	(109		)
Balance - October 1, 2017	$	12,117

(1) The Company established a liability related to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration associated with the Tianjin Medis acquisition.

Valuation Techniques

The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to satisfy benefit obligations under Company benefit plans and other arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage foreign currency transaction exposure as well as exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The Company measures the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities as of the measurement date, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions. The Company determines the fair value of the liabilities for contingent consideration based on discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs unobservable in the market, primarily estimated sales royalties and the discount rate and, therefore, constitutes a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Note 10 — Shareholders’ equity

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:

	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017	September 25, 2016	October 1, 2017	September 25, 2016
	(Shares in thousands)
Basic	45,035	44,045	44,975	43,081
Dilutive effect of share-based awards	934	639	873	574
Dilutive effect of 3.875% Convertible Notes and warrants (1)	618	2,762	825	4,169
Diluted	46,587	47,446	46,673	47,824

(1) The reduction in the dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes and warrants during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 as compared to three and nine months ended September 25, 2016 is due principally to the Company’s repurchase of Convertible Notes and conversions by holders of the Convertible Notes.

The weighted average number of shares that were antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of earnings per share were 0.6 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and 1.4 million and 3.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant agreements. The convertible note hedge, consisting of call options held by the Company, economically reduced the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes. However, applicable accounting guidance requires the Company to separately address the dilutive impact of the warrants issued under the warrant agreements in computing diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding, without giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options. The reduction in the weighted average number of diluted shares that would result from giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options would have been 0.1 millionand 0.4 millionfor the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, and 1.5 millionand2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively. The treasury stock method is applied to the warrants because the average market price of the Company's common stock during the reporting periods presented exceeds the warrant exercise price of $74.65 per share, and assumes the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are used by the Company to repurchase shares based on such average market price. Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were included in the total diluted shares outstanding were 0.5 millionfor the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and 1.3 millionand1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively.

Mezzanine Equity

As of December 31, 2016, the Company reclassified $1.8 million from additional paid-in capital to convertible notes in the mezzanine equity section of the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The reclassified amount represents the aggregate difference between the principal amount and the carrying value of the Convertible Notes purchased by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Transactions (see "3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes - Exchange Transactions" within Note 7) under agreements that were entered into prior to December 31,2016, but not consummated until January 5, 2017.

Note 12 — Pension and other postretirement benefits

The Company has a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. As of October 1, 2017, no further benefits are being accrued under the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the Company’s other postretirement benefit plans, other than certain postretirement benefit plans covering employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities

Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake

certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At October 1, 2017, the Company has recorded $1.1 million and $5.8 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of October 1, 2017. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15-20 years.

Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment, environmental and other matters. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $8.6 million in connection with such contingencies, representing its best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the amount accrued as of October 1, 2017, $5.0 million pertains to discontinued operations.

During the first quarter 2017, Teleflex Medical Trading (Shanghai) Company, Ltd. (“Teleflex Shanghai”), one of the Company’s subsidiaries, eliminated a key distributor within its sales channel in China and undertook a distributor to direct sales conversion within that channel. On March 24, 2017, the distributor submitted an application with the Shanghai International Economy and Trade Arbitration Commission (“SHIAC”) for arbitration alleging, among other things, that Teleflex Shanghai wrongfully terminated its relationship with the distributor. Pursuant to a supplementary submission filed by the distributor with SHIAC in July 2017, the distributor is seeking to recover RMB 51.2 million ($7.5 million) in damages, and is also seeking to compel Teleflex Shanghai to repurchase Teleflex products that the distributor claims it purchased from Teleflex Shanghai at a total price of RMB 97.5 million ($14.4 million). Teleflex Shanghai has filed a counterclaim seeking payment from the distributor of RMB 61.2 million ($9.0 million) in respect of outstanding trade receivables owed by the distributor to Teleflex Shanghai. Although the parties are exploring settlement of the claims, Teleflex Shanghai continues to vigorously contest the distributor's claim for damages. The Company has accrued a liability representing its best estimate of probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters.

In 2006, the Company was named as a defendant in a wrongful death product liability lawsuit filed in the Louisiana State District Court for the Parish of Calcasieu, involving a product manufactured by the Company’s former marine business. In September 2014, the case was tried before a jury, which returned a verdict in favor of the Company. The plaintiff subsequently filed a motion for a new trial, which was granted, and the case was re-tried before a jury in December 2014. On December 5, 2014, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, awarding $0.1 million in compensatory damages and $23.0 million in punitive damages, plus pre- and post-judgment interest on the compensatory damages and post-judgment interest on the punitive damages. The Company filed an appeal with the Louisiana Court of Appeal, and the plaintiff filed a cross-appeal, seeking to overturn the trial court’s denial of pre-judgment interest on the punitive damages award. On June 29, 2016, the Louisiana Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court verdict in all respects. The Company and the plaintiff filed applications for a writ of certiorari (a request for review) to the Louisiana Supreme Court. On January 13, 2017, the Louisiana Supreme Court granted the Company's writ application, and oral arguments were held on May 1, 2017. On October 18, 2017, the Louisiana Supreme Court issued its decision, affirming the lower court’s judgment in part and reducing the amount of punitive damages awarded to the plaintiff from $23.0 million to $4.3 million. On November 1, 2017, the Company filed an application for a rehearing before the Louisiana Supreme Court. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has accrued a $5.0 million liability, including punitive and compensatory damages as well as interest, representing its best estimate of probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters relating to discontinued operations.

Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or

liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.

Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of October 1, 2017, the most significant tax examinations in process are in Canada, Germany and the United States. The Company may establish reserves with respect to its uncertain tax positions, after which it adjusts its reserves to address developments with respect to these uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.

Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and other items occurring in the ordinary conduct of its business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market prices.

Note 15 — Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information

Teleflex Incorporated (the "Parent Company") is the issuer of its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes") and 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"). Payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, provide consolidated information for:

a. Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;

b. Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

c. Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries of the Parent Company that have not guaranteed payment of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes), on a combined basis; and

d. Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidating financial information, except for the use of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries, which are eliminated upon consolidation.

Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.

NeoTract Acquisition

On October 2, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of NeoTract, a privately-held company, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 4, 2017. NeoTract is a medical device company that has developed and commercialized the UroLift® System, a minimally invasive medical device for treating lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired NeoTract for an initial purchase price $725 million in cash, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. In addition, the agreement also provides for four milestone payments by the Company of up to $375 million in the aggregate if certain sales goals are met. The milestone payments are based on net sales (as defined in the agreement) for the periods from January 1, 2018 through April 30, 2018 and the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019 and 2020. The acquisition was financed using borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers; delays or cancellations in shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; our inability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with our expectations; our inability to effectively execute our restructuring programs; our inability to realize anticipated savings from restructuring plans and programs; the impact of healthcare reform legislation and proposals to amend the legislation; changes in Medicare, Medicaid and third party coverage and reimbursements; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; global economic factors, including currency exchange rates, interest rates, sovereign debt issues and the impact of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union; difficulties entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise specifically stated by us or as required by law or regulation.

Overview

Teleflex is a global provider of medical technology products that enhance clinical benefits, improve patient and provider safety and reduce total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure. We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies.

We evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to divest businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we seek to optimize utilization of our facilities through restructuring initiatives designed to further improve our cost structure and enhance our competitive position. We also may continue to explore opportunities to expand the size of our business and improve operating margins through a combination of acquisitions and distributor to direct sales conversions, which generally involve eliminating a distributor from the sales channel either by acquiring the distributor or terminating the distributor relationship (in some instances, the conversions involve our acquisition or termination of a master distributor and the continued sale of our products through sub-distributors

36

or through new distributors). Distributor to direct conversions enable us to obtain improved product pricing and more direct access to the end users of our products within the sales channel.

On February 17, 2017, we acquired Vascular Solutions, Inc. (“Vascular Solutions”) for $975.5 million, net of cash acquired. Vascular Solutions was a medical device company that developed and marketed clinical products for use in minimally invasive coronary and peripheral vascular procedures. The acquisition is expected to meaningfully accelerate the growth of our vascular and interventional access product portfolios by facilitating our further penetration of the coronary and peripheral vascular market, and by generating increased cross-portfolio selling opportunities to both our and Vascular Solutions' customer bases. We financed the acquisition through a combination of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which was increased in anticipation of the acquisition, and a new senior secured term loan facility, both of which were provided under our amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which is described in more detail below under "Borrowings" within "Liquidity and Capital Resources".

On October 2, 2017, we completed the acquisition of NeoTract, Inc. ("NeoTract"), a privately-held medical device company that has developed and commercialized the UroLift® System, a minimally invasive medical device for treating lower urinary tract symptoms due to benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired NeoTract for an upfront cash payment of $725 million, subject to customary purchase price adjustments. We may pay additional consideration of up to $375 million if specified net sales goals through the end of 2020 are achieved. The acquisition of NeoTract was financed using borrowings under our revolving credit facility. See Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

During the nine months ended October 1, 2017, we also completed acquisitions related to our anesthesia and respiratory product portfolios. The total fair value of the consideration related to these acquisitions was $39.2 million.

During 2016, we completed acquisitions of businesses that are included in our OEM and Asia reportable operating segments. In addition, during 2016, we acquired the remaining 26% ownership interest in an Indian affiliate from the noncontrolling shareholders. The total fair value of the consideration we paid in these transactions was $22.8 million.

See Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.

Results of Operations

As used in this discussion, "new products" are products for which commercial sales have commenced within the past 36 months, and “existing products” are products for which commercial sales commenced more than 36 months ago. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired businesses (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition. In addition to increases and decreases in the per unit selling prices of our products to our customers, our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases also reflects, for the first 12 months following the acquisition or termination of a distributor, the impact on the pricing of our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor from the sales channel. To the extent an acquired distributor had pre-acquisition sales of products other than ours, the impact of the post-acquisition sales of those products on our results of operations is included within our discussion of the impact of acquired businesses.

Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.

Net Revenues

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016		October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)				(Dollars in millions)
Net Revenues	$	534.7	$	455.6	$	1,551.2	$	1,354.1

Net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $79.1 million, or 17.4%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to net revenues of $48.2 million generated by acquired businesses, mainly Vascular Solutions, and to a lesser extent by increases in sales volumes of existing products of $11.0 million and new product sales.

Net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $197.1 million, or 14.6%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to net revenues of $122.2 million generated by acquired businesses, mainly Vascular Solutions, and to a lesser extent by increases in sales volumes of existing products of $44.7 million and new product sales.

Gross profit

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016			October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Gross profit	$	295.2		$	241.6		$	841.1		$	723.1
Percentage of sales	55.2		%	53.0		%	54.2		%	53.4		%

Gross margin for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased 220 basis points, or 4.2% compared to the prior year period. The increase in gross margin reflects the impact of an increase in sales of higher margin products, manufacturing cost improvements resulting from the 2016 and 2015 footprint realignment plans and gross margin generated by our acquired businesses, primarily Vascular Solutions.

Gross margin for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased 80 basis points, or 1.5%, compared to the prior year period. The increase in gross margin reflects the impact of increases in prices and sales volumes, primarily in our Vascular North America and Asia operating segments, as well as lower manufacturing costs. Manufacturing costs were impacted by cost improvement initiatives, including the 2016 and 2014 footprint realignment plans partially offset by higher logistics and distribution costs. The increases in gross margin were partially offset by the unfavorable $10.4 million impact of the step-up in carrying value of inventory recognized in connection with the Vascular Solutions acquisition, that was sold during the nine months ended October 1, 2017.

Selling, general and administrative

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016			October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Selling, general and administrative	$	163.8		$	139.8		$	486.7		$	419.1
Percentage of sales	30.6		%	30.7		%	31.4		%	31.0		%

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $24.0 million compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to $16.5 million in expenses related to acquired businesses and distributor to direct conversions and a $5.3 million increase in general and administrative expenses.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $67.6 million compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to $51.5 million in expenses related to acquired businesses and distributor to direct conversions, a $13.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses,

38

including litigation related costs, and a $7.8 million increase in selling expenses. These increases were partially offset by a gain of $6.4 million resulting from a favorable ruling in a lawsuit involving an insurance provider.

Research and development

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016			October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Research and development	$	21.2		$	15.1		$	59.3		$	42.9
Percentage of sales	4.0		%	3.3		%	3.8		%	3.2		%

The increase in research and development expense for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 compared to the prior year periods is primarily attributable to expenses incurred by our Vascular Solutions operating segment. Additionally, research and development expenses for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 were impacted by increased spending on new product development with respect to several of our segments.

Restructuring (credits) charges

	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016		October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)					(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring (credits) charges	$	(0.1	)	$	3.0	$	13.7	$	12.9

For the three months ended October 1, 2017, we recorded $0.1 million in net restructuring credits, which primarily related to changes in estimates with respect to termination benefits.

For the nine months ended October 1, 2017, we recorded $13.7 million in restructuring charges. The charges primarily related to termination benefits associated with the 2017 EMEA restructuring program and the 2017 Vascular Solutions integration program, which were $5.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, we recorded $3.0 million and $12.9 million, respectively, in restructuring charges primarily related to termination benefits associated with our 2016 other restructuring programs and 2016 Footprint realignment plan (both of which are described in Note 4 to the consolidated condensed financial statements included in this report).

In addition to the restructuring programs initiated during 2017, we have other ongoing restructuring programs related to the consolidation of our manufacturing operations (referred to as our 2016 and 2014 footprint realignment plans) as well as restructuring programs designed to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. With respect to our restructuring plans and programs, the table below summarizes (1) the estimated total cost and estimated annual pre-tax savings and synergies once the programs are completed; (2) the costs incurred and estimated pre-tax savings realized through December 31, 2016; and (3) the costs expected to be incurred and estimated incremental pre-tax savings and synergies estimated to be realized for these programs from January 1, 2017 through the anticipated completion dates. During the quarter ended October 1, 2017, we increased the range of estimated aggregate annual pre-tax savings we expect to realize from these programs from $60 million to $71 million to $67 million to $75 million to reflect incremental savings identified across several of our restructuring programs.

39

	Ongoing Restructuring Plans and Programs
	Estimated Total	Through December 31, 2016	Estimated Remaining from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2021(2)
	(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring charges	$52 - $60	$33	$19 - $27
Restructuring related charges (1)	53 - 65	30	23 - 35
Total charges	$105 - $125	$63	$42 - $62
Pre-tax savings (3)	$67 - $75	$31	$36 - $44
Vascular Solutions and Pyng integration programs - synergies (4)	$21 - $27	—	$21 - $27

(1) Restructuring related charges principally constitute accelerated depreciation and other costs primarily related to the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations and are expected to be recognized primarily in cost of goods sold.

(2) We expect to incur substantially all of the costs prior to the end of 2018, and to have realized substantially all of the estimated annual pre-tax savings and synergies by the year ended December 31, 2019.

(3) Approximately 65% of the savings is expected to result in reductions to cost of goods sold. During 2016, in connection with our execution of the 2014 footprint realignment plan, we implemented changes to medication delivery devices included in certain of our kits, which are expected to result in increased product costs (and therefore reduce the annual savings that were estimated at the inception of the program). However, we also expect to achieve improved pricing on these kits to offset the cost, which is expected to result in estimated annual increased revenues of $5 million to $6 million. We expect to begin realizing the benefits of this incremental pricing in 2017. Savings generated from restructuring programs are difficult to estimate, given the nature and timing of the restructuring activities and the possibility that unanticipated expenditures may be required as the programs progress. Moreover, predictions of revenues related to increased pricing are particularly uncertain and can be affected by a number of factors, including customer resistance to price increases and competition.

(4) While pre-tax savings address anticipated cost savings to be realized with respect to our historical expense items, synergies reflect anticipated efficiencies to be realized with respect to increased costs that otherwise would have resulted from our acquisition of Vascular Solutions and Pyng Medical Corp. ("Pyng," which we acquired in April 2017). In this regard, the synergies are expected to result from the elimination of redundancies between our operations and Vascular Solutions’ and Pyng's operations, principally through the elimination of personnel redundancies.

The following provides additional details with respect to our programs initiated in 2017:

2017 Vascular Solutions Integration Program

During the first quarter 2017, we committed to a restructuring program related to the integration of Vascular Solutions' operations with our operations. We initiated the program in the first quarter 2017 and expect the program to be substantially completed by the end of the second quarter 2018. We estimate that we will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $6.0 million to $7.5 million related to this program, of which $4.5 million to $5.3 million will constitute termination benefits, and $1.5 million to $2.2 million will relate to other exit costs, including employee relocation and outplacement costs. Additionally, we expect to incur $2.5 million to $3.0 million of restructuring related charges, consisting primarily of retention bonuses offered to certain employees expected to remain with the Company after completion of the program. All of these charges will result in future cash outlays. We began realizing program-related synergies in the first quarter 2017 and expect to achieve annualized pre-tax synergies of $20 million to $25 million once the program is fully implemented.

2017 EMEA Restructuring Program

During the first quarter 2017, we committed to a restructuring program to centralize certain administrative functions in Europe. The program commenced in the second quarter 2017 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2018. We estimate that we will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $7.1 million to $8.5 million related to this program, almost all of which constitute termination benefits, and all of which will result in future cash outlays. We expect to achieve annualized pre-tax savings of $2.7 million to $3.3 million once the program is fully implemented and expect to begin realizing plan related savings in the first quarter 2018.

Interest expense

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016			October 1, 2017			September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)						(Dollars in millions)
Interest expense	$	21.3		$	12.9		$	58.9		$	38.6
Average interest rate on debt	3.8		%	4.1		%	3.6		%	3.7		%

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended October 1, 2017 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding, mainly attributable to borrowings under the Credit Agreement that were utilized to fund the Vascular Solutions acquisition and the pending NeoTract acquisition partially offset by a slight decline in the average interest rate on debt.

The increase in interest expense for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding, as well as interest expense of $2.1 million incurred in connection with a bridge facility and backstop commitment related to our entry into the agreement and plan of merger under which we ultimately acquired Vascular Solutions. The bridge facility and backstop commitment were put in place on December 1, 2016 to, among other things, enable us to finance the acquisition of Vascular Solutions. The bridge facility and backstop commitment were not utilized, as the required financing was provided under the Credit Agreement. The increases were partially offset by a slight decline in the average interest rate on debt.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016		October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)				(Dollars in millions)
Loss on extinguishment of debt	$	—	$	—	$	5.6	$	19.3

For the nine months ended October 1, 2017, we recognized a $5.6 million loss on the extinguishment of debt, of which $5.2 million related to our repurchase, on January 5, 2017, of our 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes") through exchange transactions we entered into with certain holders of the Convertible Notes and $0.4 million related to the amendment and restatement of our previous credit agreement, which was considered a partial extinguishment of debt.

For the nine months ended September 25, 2016, we recognized a $19.3 million loss on the extinguishment of debt, of which $16.3 million related to our repurchase, on April 4, 2016, of Convertible Notes through exchange transactions we entered into with certain holders of the Convertible Notes and $3.0 million related to conversions of $44.3 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes.

Taxes on income from continuing operations

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016		October 1, 2017		September 25, 2016
Effective income tax rate	11.2	%	10.2	%	8.9	%	9.3	%

The effective income tax rate for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 was 11.2% and 8.9%, respectively, and 10.2% and 9.3% for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended October 1, 2017, as compared to the prior year period, reflects a tax cost associated with an increase in the estimated deferred tax with respect to non-permanently reinvested income.

Comparison of the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016

Vascular North America

Vascular North America net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $5.9 million, or 6.9% compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $3.1 million, as well as increases in new product sales and prices.

Vascular North America net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $23.5 million, or 9.2% compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to a $15.0 million increase in sales volumes of existing products, reflecting, in part, the impact of a 4 day increase in the number of shipping days within the nine months ended October 1, 2017, as well as an increase in new product sales.

Vascular North America operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $3.5 million, or 15.8%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales volumes and price increases, partially offset by higher research and development expenses as well as higher general and administrative expenses.

Vascular North America operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $11.9 million, or 18.7% compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales volumes, partially offset by higher research and development expenses as well as higher general and administrative expenses.

42

Anesthesia North America

Anesthesia North America net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $2.1 million, or 4.4% compared to the prior year period. The increase in net revenues is primarily attributable to net revenues of $1.7 million generated by an acquired business.

Anesthesia North America net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $4.2 million, or 3.0%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to a $2.9 million increase in new product sales and net revenues of $2.8 million generated by an acquired business. These increases were partially offset by a $2.5 million net decrease in sales volumes of existing products despite a 4 day increase in the number of shipping days within the nine months ended October 1, 2017.

Anesthesia North America operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017increased $1.7 million, or 12.4% compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to gross profit generated by an acquired business.

Anesthesia North America operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017increased $8.5 million, or 20.8% compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to a gain of $6.4 million resulting from a favorable ruling in a lawsuit involving an insurance provider and an increase in gross profit resulting from lower manufacturing costs and the impact of an increase in new product sales partially offset by unfavorable mix.

Surgical North America

Surgical North America net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 decreased $1.1 million, or 2.4%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to a $2.4 million decrease in sales volumes of existing products partially offset by price increases and new product sales.

Surgical North America net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $7.6 million, or 6.1%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to a $4.0 million increase in new product sales as well as increases in prices and sales volumes of existing products resulting from a 4 day increase in the number of shipping days within the nine months ended October 1, 2017.

Surgical North America operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017 decreased $0.5 million, or 3.1%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decline in gross profit due to lower sales volumes.

Surgical North America operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $7.6 million, or 19.2%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from increases in new product sales and prices.

EMEA

EMEA net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $10.1 million, or 8.3%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $6.0 million and an increase in sales volumes of existing products.

EMEA net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $19.0 million, or 5.1%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $15.7 million, including the impact of a 4 day increase in the number of shipping days within the nine months ended October 1, 2017, and an increase in new product sales.

EMEA operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $7.6 million, or 45.9%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to lower operating expenses as well as an increase in gross profit resulting from the impact of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and higher sales volumes.

EMEA operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $8.1 million, or 13.2%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales volumes as well as lower operating expenses, partially offset by the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

43

Asia

Asia net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $8.4 million, or 13.0%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to higher sales volumes of existing products of $5.6 million as well as new product sales.

Asia net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $8.9 million, or 5.0%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $3.7 million, an increase in new product sales of $2.8 million and price increases of $2.6 million. We experienced a decline in sales volumes in China resulting from the impact of the distributor to direct sales conversion, but this decline was more than offset by a net increase in sales volumes in the remainder of the Asia segment. As previously disclosed, we expected to experience a decline in sales and operating profit in our Asia segment during 2017 as our former distributor liquidates its inventory of our products and we implement our new structure to support these sales. During the first quarter 2017, the distributor commenced an arbitration proceeding against us, seeking, among other things, to compel our repurchase of Teleflex products that the distributor alleges are currently held in its inventory. See Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Asia operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $2.1 million, or 11.9%, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales volumes, partially offset by greater selling, general and administrative expenses, including those resulting from the distributor to direct conversion and related arbitration in China mentioned above.

Asia operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 decreased $3.3 million or 6.1%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to higher selling, general and administrative expenses, including those resulting from the distributor to direct sales conversion and related arbitration in China mentioned above, and the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales volumes and the impact of price increases.

OEM

OEM net revenues for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $7.2 million, or 17.3%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $3.0 million, net revenues of $2.1 million generated by an acquired business and an increase in new product sales.

OEM net revenues for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $21.4 million, or 18.5%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in sales volumes of existing products of $12.9 million and net revenues of $7.7 million generated by an acquired business.

OEM operating profit for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $2.1 million, or 20.1%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from greater sales volumes.

OEM operating profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 increased $7.1 million, or 28.9%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from greater sales volumes and gross profit generated by an acquired business, partially offset by higher operating expenses, including those incurred by the acquired business.

All Other

Net revenues for our other operating segments increased $46.5 million, or 87.5%, and $112.5 million, or 68.5%, for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, compared to the prior year periods. The increase is primarily attributable to net revenues of $43.9 million and $110.5 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, generated by Vascular Solutions.

Operating profit for our other operating segments for the three months ended October 1, 2017 increased $8.6 million, or 248.1%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to operating profit generated by Vascular Solutions.

Operating profit for our other operating segments increased $0.5 million or 2.0% for the nine months ended October 1, 2017, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily attributable to operating profit generated by our Latin America and Cardiac segments. The gross profit generated by Vascular Solutions' product sales was more than offset by expenses incurred in connection with the acquisition and ongoing operations of Vascular Solutions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis. We are not aware of any restrictions on repatriation of these funds and, subject to cash payment of additional United States income taxes or foreign withholding taxes, these funds could be repatriated, if necessary. Any resulting additional taxes could be offset, at least in part, by foreign tax credits. The amount of any taxes required to be paid, which could be significant, and the application of tax credits would be determined based on income tax laws in effect at the time of such repatriation. We do not expect any such repatriation to result in additional tax expense because taxes have been provided for on unremitted foreign earnings that we do not consider permanently reinvested. Of our $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents at October 1, 2017, $967.5 million was held at non-United States subsidiaries. On October 2, 2017, we utilized $725 million of cash held at a non-United States subsidiary (funded through borrowings under our revolving credit facility) to fund the NeoTract acquisition. As noted above, we may have to pay up to an additional $375 million in connection with our acquisition of NeoTract, if specified net sales goals are achieved. See "Borrowings" below for additional information regarding our debt activity. See also Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding the NeoTract acquisition.

To date, we have not experienced significant payment defaults by our customers, and we have sufficient lending commitments in place to enable us to fund our anticipated additional operating needs. However, although there have been recent improvements in certain countries, global financial markets remain volatile and the global credit markets are constrained, which creates a risk that our customers and suppliers may be unable to access liquidity. Consequently, we continue to monitor our credit risk, particularly with respect to customers in Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain, and consider other mitigation strategies. As of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net trade accounts receivable from publicly funded hospitals in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece were $25.2 million and $29.2 million, respectively. As of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net trade accounts receivable from customers in these countries were approximately 16.9% and 19.3%, respectively of our consolidated net trade accounts receivable. For the nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, net revenues from customers in these countries were 6.2% and 7.1% of total net revenues, respectively, and average days that current and long-term trade accounts receivable were outstanding were 159 days and 190 days, respectively. If economic conditions in these countries deteriorate, we may experience significant credit losses related to the public hospital systems in these countries. Moreover, if global economic conditions generally deteriorate, we may experience further delays in customer payments, reductions in our customers’ purchases and higher credit losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows in 2017 and future years. In January 2017, we sold $16.1 million of receivables payable from publicly funded hospitals in Italy for $16.0 million.

Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations provided net cash of approximately $319.7 million for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 as compared to $301.6 million for the nine months ended September 25, 2016. The $18.1 million increase is attributable to favorable operating results, partially offset by net unfavorable working capital changes, primarily an increase in inventories, and a net cash outflow for income taxes for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 as compared to the nine months ended September 25, 2016 resulting from a refund received in 2016. The net increase in inventories for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 was $20.3 million compared to $5.6 million for nine months ended September 25, 2016. The increase is attributable to inventory purchases to support our footprint realignment restructuring plans and achieve desired safety stock levels.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $1.1 billion for the nine months ended October 1, 2017, primarily resulting from the $1.0 billion payment for businesses acquired, principally Vascular Solutions, and capital expenditures of $54.0 million, which were partially offset by proceeds of $6.3 million from the sale of two properties, one of which was a building that had been classified as held for sale.

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $1.2 billion for the nine months ended October 1, 2017, primarily resulting from a net increase in borrowings of $1.2 billion. Our borrowings under the Credit Agreement included $1.0 billion to finance the Vascular Solutions acquisition, together with related fees and expenses, and $725 million to finance the NeoTract acquisition, partially offset by our repayment of $475 million of borrowings

45

under our revolving credit facility. Additionally, we had a $136.1 million reduction in borrowings under our 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes") resulting from the Exchange Transactions and payment upon maturity of all remaining Convertible Notes outstanding, each of which is discussed below under "Borrowings."

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was also impacted by dividend payments of $45.9 million and debt issuance and amendment fees of $19.1 million, which included fees paid in connection with the signing of the Credit Agreement and a bridge facility and backstop commitment that was put in place to assist with the financing of the Vascular Solutions acquisition, but was never utilized because the required financing was provided under the Credit Agreement.

Borrowings

Our Convertible Notes matured on August 1, 2017 (the "Maturity Date"). The Convertible Notes were convertible under certain circumstances, as described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since the fourth quarter 2013, our closing stock price has exceeded the threshold for conversion. Moreover, commencing on May 1, 2017 and through July 28, 2017, the Convertible Notes were convertible regardless of the closing price of our stock. We elected a net settlement method to satisfy our conversion obligations, under which we settled the conversion of Convertible Notes by paying the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash and providing shares having a value equal to the excess of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes over the principal amount of the notes; however, cash was paid in lieu of fractional shares.

In January 2017, we acquired $91.7 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes in exchange for an aggregate of $93.2 million in cash (including approximately $1.5 million in accrued and previously unpaid interest) and approximately 0.93 million shares of our common stock (the “Exchange Transactions”). We funded the cash portion of the consideration paid through borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In advance of the maturity of the Convertible Notes, $44.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes (the "Converted Notes") were tendered to us for conversion. On the Maturity Date, we repaid the remaining $44.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes outstanding, together with unpaid interest due and owing on the Convertible Notes (the “Cash Payment”). In addition to the Cash Payment, on the Maturity Date, we delivered to the holders of the Converted Notes, in the aggregate, 0.5 million shares of our common stock. We funded the Cash Payment through borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

Also in January 2017, we entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides for a five-year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $750.0 million. The availability of loans under our revolving credit facility is dependent upon our ability to maintain continued compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. Moreover, additional borrowings would be prohibited if an event resulting in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Credit Agreement) were to occur. Notwithstanding these restrictions, we believe our revolving credit facility provides us with significant flexibility to meet our foreseeable working capital needs.

In August 2017, we paid down $475 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility utilizing cash generated by our operations. Immediately following the repayment, we borrowed $725 million under the revolving credit facility to fund the acquisition of NeoTract, as described above.

The Credit Agreement and the indentures under which we issued our 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and 2026 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur additional debt or issue preferred stock or other disqualified stock; create liens; pay dividends, make investments or make other restricted payments; sell assets; merge, consolidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; or enter into transactions with our affiliates. The Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain a consolidated total leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, for the four most recent quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination) of not more than 4.50 to 1.00, and a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Senior Secured Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination) of not more than 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination to Consolidated Interest Expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

46

As of October 1, 2017, we were in compliance with these requirements. The obligations under the Credit Agreement, the 2024 Notes and the 2026 Notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the Credit Agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by us and each guarantor.

See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding the Exchange Transactions and the Credit Agreement.

Contractual obligations

 The following table sets forth our contractual obligations related to our total borrowings and interest as of October 1, 2017, which, as a result of the signing of the Credit Agreement during the first quarter 2017 and the borrowing activity occurring during the nine months ended October 1,2017 as described above in "Borrowings", has significantly changed since December 31, 2016:

			Payments due by period
	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years
			(Dollars in thousands)
Total borrowings	$	2,262,000	$	77,250	$	84,375	$	1,450,375	$	650,000
Interest obligations(1)	472,048		85,050		165,031		128,045		93,922

(1) Interest payments on floating rate debt are based on the interest rate in effect on October 1, 2017 .

New Accounting Standards

See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards, including estimated effects, if any, on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management’s assessment of disclosure controls and procedures excluded consideration of Vascular Solutions’ internal control over financial reporting.  Vascular Solutions was acquired during the first quarter of 2017, and the exclusion is consistent with guidance provided by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from management’s report on internal control over financial reporting for up to one year from the date of acquisition, subject to specified conditions.  Vascular Solutions’ total assets were $1.2 billion as of October 1, 2017; its revenues during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 were $43.9 million and $110.5 million, respectively.

47

(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As a result of our acquisition of Vascular Solutions, we are in the process of evaluating Vascular Solutions’ internal controls to determine the extent to which modifications to Vascular Solutions' internal controls would be appropriate.

48

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contracts, employment and environmental matters. As of October 1, 2017 andDecember 31, 2016, we have accrued liabilities of approximately $8.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the $8.6 million accrued at October 1, 2017, $5.0 million pertains to discontinued operations. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. See “Litigation” within Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended October 1, 2017. See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of presentation

Note 1 — Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company”) are prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and with Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company's audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, the Company's quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]

New accounting standards

Note 2 — New accounting standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. This new guidance, collectively with related guidance provided by the FASB, is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter 2018 and expects to use the modified retrospective method of adoption by recognizing the cumulative effect of adopting this guidance as an adjustment to the Company's opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2018. Although the Company's evaluation of this guidance is ongoing, based on its assessment to date, the Company believes that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that will change the requirements for accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees (including lessees under both leases classified as finance leases, which are to be classified based on criteria similar to that applicable to capital leases under current guidance, and leases classified as operating leases) will recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, initially measured as the present value of lease payments under the lease. Under current guidance, operating leases are not recognized on the balance sheet. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; the guidance provides certain practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance designed to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including, among other things, guidance related to accounting for income taxes, modification of the criteria for classification of awards as either equity awards or liability awards where an employer withholds shares from an employee's share-based award for tax withholding purposes, and classification on the statement of cash flows of cash payments to a tax authority by an employer that withholds shares from an employee's award for tax withholding purposes. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The Company has applied the new guidance requiring recognition of excess tax deficiencies and tax benefits in the income statement, rather than in additional paid-in-capital, as previously required. The adoption of the new standard increased net income and cash flows from operating activities by $1.5 million and $5.9 million and increased diluted earnings per share by $0.03 and $0.13 for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively. The Company will continue to estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the time of grant, rather than recognize actual forfeitures as they occur, as permitted under the new guidance.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance with regard to eight specific issues pertaining to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance should generally be adopted using a retrospective transition method for each period presented. The Company believes that its adoption of the new guidance will not have a material impact on its cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance requiring companies to recognize the income tax effects of intra-entity sales and transfers of assets, other than inventory, in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) in the period in which the transfer occurs. Previously, recognition was prohibited until the assets were sold to an outside party or otherwise utilized. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify the definition of a “business,” with the objective of assisting entities in evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition (or disposal) of assets or as an acquisition of a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. The guidance generally defines a business as an integrated set of activities and assets (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The guidance further provides that, to be considered a business, a set must meet specified requirements. However, the guidance also states that, if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (subject to specified exceptions) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not considered a business and no further analysis is required. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance permits early adoption, and the Company adopted this guidance during the fourth quarter 2017. The Company does not anticipate that the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the quantitative test for goodwill impairment. Under current guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the entity must determine the implied value of goodwill. This determination is made by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole as if the reporting unit had just been acquired. Under the new guidance, a determination of the implied value of goodwill will no longer be required; a goodwill impairment will be equal to the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and any interim goodwill impairment tests within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans. The guidance requires that these employers disaggregate specified components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost (collectively, "net benefit cost"). Specifically, the guidance generally requires employers to present in the income statement the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and generally is required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations.

In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance with the objective of improving the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements. The new guidance provides for changes to current designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and to the method of presenting hedge results. In addition, the new guidance includes certain targeted improvements to ease the application of current guidance related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.

From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by the Company as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and, unless otherwise indicated above, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Business Combinations [Abstract]

Acquisitions

Note 3 — Acquisitions

On October 2, 2017, the Company acquired NeoTract, Inc. ("NeoTract"). See Note 16, Subsequent events, for additional information related to this acquisition.

During the nine months ended October 1, 2017, the Company completed three acquisitions, all of which were accounted for as business combinations.

Tianjin Medis Medical Device Co.

On September 15, 2017, the Company acquired certain assets from one of its contract manufacturers, Tianjin Medis Medical Co. LTD ("Tianjin Medis"), consisting of substantially all of the assets used by Tianjin Medis to manufacture a line of the Company's laryngeal masks. The aggregate consideration for the assets was $21.3 million, which included payments of $16.0 million and $5.3 million in estimated fair value of contingent consideration. The assets acquired include goodwill and finite-lived intangible assets (consisting of intellectual property, customer lists and a non-compete agreement) of $14.7 million and $6.9 million, respectively.

Pyng

On April 3, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Pyng Medical Corp ("Pyng"), a medical device company that develops and markets sternal intraosseous infusion products, which complement the Company's anesthesia product portfolio. The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Pyng utilizing available cash. The aggregate consideration was $17.9 million, net of cash acquired. The assets acquired include goodwill and finite-lived intangible assets (primarily intellectual property and customer lists) of $13.0 million and $5.5 million, respectively. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition primarily reflects synergies currently expected to be realized from the integration of the acquired business.

Vascular Solutions

On February 17, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Vascular Solutions, Inc. (“Vascular Solutions”) pursuant to a merger transaction. Vascular Solutions is a medical device company that develops and markets products for use in minimally invasive coronary and peripheral vascular procedures. In connection with the merger, subject to specified exclusions, each share of common stock of Vascular Solutions (each, a "Share" and collectively, the “Shares”) was converted into the right to receive $56.00 per Share in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding tax. In addition, each outstanding option or similar right to purchase Shares issued under the Vascular Solutions’ Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the "Company Options") was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the acquisition and (ii) the excess, if any, of $56.00 over the exercise price of such Company Option. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company in connection with the merger was approximately $975.5 million, net of cash acquired.

For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 the Company incurred $0.1 million and $8.3 million, respectively, in transaction expenses associated with the Vascular Solutions acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of income. For the three months ended October 1, 2017, the Company recorded post acquisition revenue and operating profit of $43.9 million and $4.8 million, respectively, related to Vascular Solutions. For the nine months endedOctober 1, 2017, the Company recorded post acquisition revenue and operating loss of $110.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively. Financial information of Vascular Solutions is presented within the "All Other" category in the Company's presentation of segment information.

The Vascular Solutions acquisition was financed utilizing borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated January 20, 2017 (the "Credit Agreement"), which is described in Note 7.

The following table presents the purchase price allocation among the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with respect to the Vascular Solutions acquisition:

	(Dollars in thousands)
Assets
Current assets	$	63,867
Property, plant and equipment	46,616
Intangible assets	539,250
Goodwill	522,614
Other assets	728
Total assets acquired	1,173,075
Less:
Current liabilities	15,079
Deferred tax liabilities	182,472
Liabilities assumed	197,551
Net assets acquired	$	975,524

The Company is continuing to evaluate the initial purchase price allocations, and further adjustments may be necessary as a result of the Company's assessment of additional information related to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily deferred tax liabilities, certain intangible assets and goodwill. The goodwill resulting from the Vascular Solutions acquisition primarily reflects synergies currently expected to be realized from the integration of the acquired businesses.

The following table sets forth the components of identifiable intangible assets acquired and the ranges of the useful lives as of the date of the Vascular Solutions acquisition:

	Fair value	Useful life range

2016 acquisitions

The Company made the following acquisitions during 2016 (the "2016 acquisitions"), which, with the exception of its acquisition of the outstanding noncontrolling interest in Teleflex Medical Private Limited, were accounted for as business combinations:

• On September 2, 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of CarTika Medical, Inc., ("CarTika"), an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of catheters and other medical devices that complement the Company's OEM product portfolio.

• On July 1, 2016, the Company, which previously owned a 74% controlling interest in its Indian affiliate, Teleflex Medical Private Limited, acquired the remaining 26% ownership interest from the noncontrolling shareholders. Teleflex Medical Private Limited is part of the Company's Asia reportable operating segment. As this acquisition did not result in a change in the Company's control of the entity, the Company recognized the $7.5 million excess of the purchase price of the noncontrolling interest over its carrying value as equity.

• During the second quarter 2016, the Company acquired certain assets of two medical device and supplies distributors in New Zealand.

The aggregate purchase price paid in connection with the 2016 acquisitions was $22.8 million. The results of operations of the acquired businesses and assets are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income from their respective acquisition dates. Pro forma information is not presented, as the operations of the acquired businesses are not significant to the overall operations of the Company.

2017 Vascular Solutions Integration Program

During the first quarter 2017, the Company committed to a restructuring program related to the integration of Vascular Solutions into Teleflex. The program commenced in the first quarter 2017 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of the second quarter 2018. The Company estimates that it will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $6.0 million to $7.5 million related to this program, of which $4.5 million to $5.3 million will constitute termination benefits, while $1.5 million to $2.2 million will relate to other exit costs, including employee relocation and outplacement costs. Additionally, the Company expects to incur $2.5 million to $3.0 million of restructuring related charges consisting primarily of retention bonuses offered to certain employees expected to remain with the Company after completion of the program. All of these charges will result in future cash outlays. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $1.7 million related to this program.

2017 EMEA Restructuring Program

During the first quarter 2017, the Company committed to a restructuring program to centralize certain administrative functions in Europe. The program commenced in the second quarter 2017 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2018. The Company estimates that it will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $7.1 million to $8.5 million related to this program, almost all of which constitute termination benefits, and all of which will result in future cash outlays. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $6.0 million related to this program.

2016 Other Restructuring Programs

During 2016, the Company committed to programs designed to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs. The programs involve the consolidation of certain global administrative functions and manufacturing operations. The programs commenced in the second half of 2016 and are expected to be substantially complete by the end of the first quarter 2018. The Company estimates that it will record aggregate pre-tax charges of $3.8 million to $4.7 million related to these programs, substantially all of which constitute termination benefits that will result in future cash outlays. Additionally, the Company expects to incur approximately $1.5 million of accelerated depreciation and other costs directly related to these programs, which the Company anticipates will be recognized in cost of goods sold. Approximately $1.0 million of these costs are expected to result in future outlays. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $0.8 million related to these programs.

2016 Footprint Realignment Plan

In 2016, the Company initiated a restructuring plan (the “2016 footprint realignment plan") designed to reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies and enhance the Company’s long term competitive position.  The plan involves the relocation of certain manufacturing operations, the relocation and outsourcing of certain distribution operations and a related workforce reduction at certain of the Company's facilities. These actions commenced in the first quarter of 2016 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2018. The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the 2016 footprint realignment plan of between approximately $34 million to $44 million, of which an estimated $27 million to $31 million are expected to result in future cash outlays. Most of these charges, and the related cash outlays, are expected to be made prior to the end of 2018.

In addition to the restructuring charges shown in the tables above, the Company recorded charges related to the 2016 footprint realignment plan of $1.4 millionand $5.5 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, and $1.9 million and $4.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively. The majority of these restructuring related charges in both periods constituted accelerated depreciation and other costs arising principally as a result of the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations.

As of October 1, 2017, the Company has incurred restructuring charges in connection with the 2016 footprint realignment plan aggregating to $13.8 million. Additionally, as of October 1, 2017, the Company has incurred restructuring related charges aggregating to $12.0 million related to the 2016 footprint realignment plan, consisting of accelerated depreciation and certain other costs that principally resulted from the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations. These costs primarily were included in cost of goods sold. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $7.9 million related to this plan, the majority of which relates to termination benefits.

2014 Footprint Realignment Plan

In 2014, the Company initiated a restructuring plan (“the 2014 footprint realignment plan”) involving the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain facilities, and the relocation of manufacturing operations from certain higher-cost locations to existing lower-cost locations. These actions commenced in the second quarter 2014 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of the first half of 2020. The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the 2014 footprint realignment plan of approximately $43 million to $48 million, of which an estimated $33 million to $38 million are expected to result in future cash outlays. The Company expects to incur $24 million to $30 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan.

In addition to the restructuring charges set forth in the tables above, the Company recorded charges related to the 2014 footprint realignment plan of $1.0 million and $3.1 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, and $2.5 million and $6.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively. The majority of these restructuring related charges in both periods constituted accelerated depreciation and other costs arising principally as a result of the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations.

As of October 1, 2017, the Company has incurred restructuring charges in connection with the 2014 footprint realignment plan aggregating to $11.5 million. Additionally, as of October 1, 2017, the Company has incurred restructuring related charges aggregating to $25.9 million related to the 2014 footprint realignment plan, consisting of accelerated depreciation and certain other costs that principally resulted from the transfer of manufacturing operations from the existing locations to new locations. These restructuring related charges primarily were included in cost of goods sold. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $4.2 million in connection with the plan, all of which relates to termination benefits.

Amended and restated senior credit facility

On January 20, 2017, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides for a five year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $750.0 million. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) by substantially all of the material domestic subsidiaries of the Company and are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by the Company and each guarantor. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement is January 20, 2022, and the term loan facility will mature on February 17, 2022.

At the Company’s option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or at an alternate base rate, which generally is defined as the highest of (i) the publicly announced prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, (ii) 0.5% above the federal funds rate and (iii) 1% above adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.50%, in each case subject to adjustment based on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the Credit Agreement, for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination). Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00%.

The Company is required to maintain a total consolidated leverage ratio of not more than 4.50 to 1.00 and a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Senior Secured Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination) of not more than 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination to Consolidated Interest Expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

The Company capitalized $12.0 million related to transaction fees, including underwriters’ discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement. In addition, because the Company's entry into the Credit Agreement was considered a partial extinguishment of the indebtedness under its previously outstanding credit agreement, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.4 million during the first quarter 2017.

3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes

Exchange Transactions

On January 5, 2017, pursuant to separate, privately negotiated agreements between the Company and certain holders (the "Holders") of its 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes"), the Company paid cash and common stock (the "Exchange Consideration") to the Holders in exchange for $91.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes (the "Exchange Transactions"). The Exchange Consideration paid to each of the Holders per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes was equal to: (i) $1,000 in cash, (ii) a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the amount of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes in excess of the $1,000 principal amount (the "Conversion Shares"), calculated on the basis of the average daily volume weighted average price per share of Company common stock over a specified period (the "Average Daily VWAP"), (iii) an inducement payment in additional shares of common stock (the "Inducement Shares") calculated based on the Average Daily VWAP; and (iv) cash in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the closing date. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company paid the Holders aggregate cash consideration of approximately $93.2 million (which includes approximately $1.5 million in accrued but previously unpaid interest) and issued and delivered to the Holders approximately 0.93 million shares of Company common stock (including both Conversion Shares and Inducement Shares). The Company funded the $93.2 million cash payment constituting part of the Exchange Consideration through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.2 million during the first quarter 2017.

In connection with its entry into the Exchange Transactions, the Company also entered into bond hedge unwind agreements (the "Hedge Unwind Agreements") and warrant unwind agreements (the "Warrant Unwind Agreements") with the dealer counterparties to the convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions that were effected at the time of the initial issuance of the Convertible Notes. Under the Hedge Unwind Agreements, the number of then-outstanding call options issued to the Company under the Convertible Note hedge transactions (the "Call Options") was reduced to reflect proportionately the reduction in the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes following the Exchange Transactions. Under the Warrant Unwind Agreements, the number of warrants then held by the dealer counterparties also was reduced. On a net basis, after giving effect to the Hedge Unwind Agreements and Warrant Unwind Agreements, the Company received 0.12 million shares of Company common stock from the dealer counterparties.

Settlement and Conversions Upon Maturity

The Convertible Notes matured on August 1, 2017 (the "Maturity Date"). On the Maturity Date, the Company repaid the remaining $44.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes outstanding, together with unpaid interest due and owing on the Convertible Notes (the “Cash Payment”). In connection with the maturity of the Convertible Notes, $44.2 million in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes were tendered to the Company for conversion (the "Converted Notes"). On the Maturity Date, in addition to the Cash Payment, the Company delivered to the holders of the Converted Notes, in the aggregate, 0.5 million shares of Company common stock.

In connection with the conversions described above, the Company exercised the outstanding Call Options, and the counterparties to the Convertible Note hedge transactions delivered to the Company 0.5 million shares of Company common stock. The counterparties continue to hold warrants to purchase Company common stock that they acquired at the time of the initial issuance of the Convertible Notes. At October 1, 2017, the warrants, which entitle the holders to purchase 724,648 shares at an exercise price of $74.65 per share, had an intrinsic value of $121.3 million. The warrants are divided into components that expire ratably over a 180 day period commencing November 1, 2017.

Fair Value of Long-Term Borrowings

The following table provides information regarding the fair value of the Company’s debt as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, categorized by the level of inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value:

	October 1, 2017		December 31, 2016
	(Dollars in thousands)
Level 1	$	—	$	344,765
Level 2	2,254,376		929,362
Total	$	2,254,376	$	1,274,127

To determine the fair value of the debt categorized as Level 2 in the table above, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to manage exposure related to foreign currency transactions. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are used to manage near term foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, the Company recognized a loss related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts of $0.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, the Company recognized a loss related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts of $0.1 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

The following table presents the locations in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and fair value of derivative financial instruments as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	October 1, 2017		December 31, 2016

Non-designated foreign currency forward contracts	93		118
Other current liabilities	$	330	$	2,257
Total liability derivatives	$	330	$	2,257

The total notional amount for all open foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $76.1 million and $101.8 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $112.3 million and $73.4 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of October 1, 2017 have durations of twelve months or less.

There was no ineffectiveness related to the Company’s cash flow hedges during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. A portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the United States, however, include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the creditworthiness of those countries and the financial stability of their economies. Certain of the Company’s customers, particularly in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided, raising collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers. As a result, the Company continues to closely monitor the allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to these customers. The following table provides information regarding the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts, the aggregate net current and long-term trade accounts receivable related to customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and the percentage of the Company’s total net current and long-term trade accounts receivable represented by these customers' trade accounts receivable at October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	October 1, 2017			December 31, 2016
	(Dollars in thousands)
Allowance for doubtful accounts(1)	$	10,084		$	8,630
Current and long-term trade accounts receivable in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal (2)	$	50,613		$	51,098
Percentage of total net current and long-term trade accounts receivable - Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal	16.9		%	19.3		%

(1) The current portion of the allowance for doubtful accounts was $3.1 million and $2.0 million as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and was recognized in accounts receivable, net.

(2) The long-term portion of trade accounts receivable, net from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal at October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $3.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively. In January 2017, the Company sold $16.1 million of receivables outstanding with respect to publicly funded hospitals in Italy for $16.0 million.

For the nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, net revenues from customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal were $96.0 million and $95.8 million, respectively.

Note 9 — Fair value measurement

For a description of the fair value hierarchy, see Note 10 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The following tables provide information regarding the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

	Total carrying value at October 1, 2017		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

(1) As of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, (a) $0.6 million of contingent consideration liabilities were recognized in the current portion of contingent consideration, and (b) $11.5 million and $6.5 million of contingent consideration liabilities, respectively, were recognized in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities reported at fair value among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended October 1, 2017.

The following table provides information regarding changes, during the nine months ended October 1, 2017, in Level 3 financial liabilities related to contingent consideration, which are described below in this Note 9 under "Valuation Techniques":

	Contingent consideration
	2017
	(Dollars in thousands)
Balance - December 31, 2016	$	7,102
Additions (1)	5,369

Revaluations	(109		)
Balance - October 1, 2017	$	12,117

(1) The Company established a liability related to the estimated fair value of contingent consideration associated with the Tianjin Medis acquisition.

Valuation Techniques

The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to satisfy benefit obligations under Company benefit plans and other arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage foreign currency transaction exposure as well as exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The Company measures the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities as of the measurement date, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions. The Company determines the fair value of the liabilities for contingent consideration based on discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs unobservable in the market, primarily estimated sales royalties and the discount rate and, therefore, constitutes a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Equity [Abstract]

Shareholders' equity

Note 10 — Shareholders’ equity

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:

	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	October 1, 2017	September 25, 2016	October 1, 2017	September 25, 2016
	(Shares in thousands)
Basic	45,035	44,045	44,975	43,081
Dilutive effect of share-based awards	934	639	873	574
Dilutive effect of 3.875% Convertible Notes and warrants (1)	618	2,762	825	4,169
Diluted	46,587	47,446	46,673	47,824

(1) The reduction in the dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes and warrants during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 as compared to three and nine months ended September 25, 2016 is due principally to the Company’s repurchase of Convertible Notes and conversions by holders of the Convertible Notes.

The weighted average number of shares that were antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of earnings per share were 0.6 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and 1.4 million and 3.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant agreements. The convertible note hedge, consisting of call options held by the Company, economically reduced the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes. However, applicable accounting guidance requires the Company to separately address the dilutive impact of the warrants issued under the warrant agreements in computing diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding, without giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options. The reduction in the weighted average number of diluted shares that would result from giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options would have been 0.1 millionand 0.4 millionfor the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively, and 1.5 millionand2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively. The treasury stock method is applied to the warrants because the average market price of the Company's common stock during the reporting periods presented exceeds the warrant exercise price of $74.65 per share, and assumes the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are used by the Company to repurchase shares based on such average market price. Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were included in the total diluted shares outstanding were 0.5 millionfor the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and 1.3 millionand1.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 25, 2016, respectively.

Mezzanine Equity

As of December 31, 2016, the Company reclassified $1.8 million from additional paid-in capital to convertible notes in the mezzanine equity section of the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The reclassified amount represents the aggregate difference between the principal amount and the carrying value of the Convertible Notes purchased by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Transactions (see "3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes - Exchange Transactions" within Note 7) under agreements that were entered into prior to December 31,2016, but not consummated until January 5, 2017. No reclassification was required as of October 1, 2017.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and contingent liabilities

Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities

Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At October 1, 2017, the Company has recorded $1.1 million and $5.8 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of October 1, 2017. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15-20 years.

Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment, environmental and other matters. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $8.6 million in connection with such contingencies, representing its best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the amount accrued as of October 1, 2017, $5.0 million pertains to discontinued operations.

During the first quarter 2017, Teleflex Medical Trading (Shanghai) Company, Ltd. (“Teleflex Shanghai”), one of the Company’s subsidiaries, eliminated a key distributor within its sales channel in China and undertook a distributor to direct sales conversion within that channel. On March 24, 2017, the distributor submitted an application with the Shanghai International Economy and Trade Arbitration Commission (“SHIAC”) for arbitration alleging, among other things, that Teleflex Shanghai wrongfully terminated its relationship with the distributor. Pursuant to a supplementary submission filed by the distributor with SHIAC in July 2017, the distributor is seeking to recover RMB 51.2 million ($7.5 million) in damages, and is also seeking to compel Teleflex Shanghai to repurchase Teleflex products that the distributor claims it purchased from Teleflex Shanghai at a total price of RMB 97.5 million ($14.4 million). Teleflex Shanghai has filed a counterclaim seeking payment from the distributor of RMB 61.2 million ($9.0 million) in respect of outstanding trade receivables owed by the distributor to Teleflex Shanghai. Although the parties are exploring settlement of the claims, Teleflex Shanghai continues to vigorously contest the distributor's claim for damages. The Company has accrued a liability representing its best estimate of probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters.

In 2006, the Company was named as a defendant in a wrongful death product liability lawsuit filed in the Louisiana State District Court for the Parish of Calcasieu, involving a product manufactured by the Company’s former marine business. In September 2014, the case was tried before a jury, which returned a verdict in favor of the Company. The plaintiff subsequently filed a motion for a new trial, which was granted, and the case was re-tried before a jury in December 2014. On December 5, 2014, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, awarding $0.1 million in compensatory damages and $23.0 million in punitive damages, plus pre- and post-judgment interest on the compensatory damages and post-judgment interest on the punitive damages. The Company filed an appeal with the Louisiana Court of Appeal, and the plaintiff filed a cross-appeal, seeking to overturn the trial court’s denial of pre-judgment interest on the punitive damages award. On June 29, 2016, the Louisiana Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court verdict in all respects. The Company and the plaintiff filed applications for a writ of certiorari (a request for review) to the Louisiana Supreme Court. On January 13, 2017, the Louisiana Supreme Court granted the Company's writ application, and oral arguments were held on May 1, 2017. On October 18, 2017, the Louisiana Supreme Court issued its decision, affirming the lower court’s judgment in part and reducing the amount of punitive damages awarded to the plaintiff from $23.0 million to $4.3 million. On November 1, 2017, the Company filed an application for a rehearing before the Louisiana Supreme Court. As of October 1, 2017, the Company has accrued a $5.0 million liability, including punitive and compensatory damages as well as interest, representing its best estimate of probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters relating to discontinued operations.

Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.

Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of October 1, 2017, the most significant tax examinations in process are in Canada, Germany and the United States. The Company may establish reserves with respect to its uncertain tax positions, after which it adjusts its reserves to address developments with respect to these uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.

Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and other items occurring in the ordinary conduct of its business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market prices.

Condensed Consolidated Guarantor Financial Information [Abstract]

Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information

Note 15 — Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information

Teleflex Incorporated (the "Parent Company") is the issuer of its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes") and 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"). Payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of October 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the nine months ended October 1, 2017 and September 25, 2016, provide consolidated information for:

a. Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;

b. Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

c. Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries of the Parent Company that have not guaranteed payment of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes), on a combined basis; and

d. Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidating financial information, except for the use of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries, which are eliminated upon consolidation.

Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.

New accounting standards (Policies)

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]

New accounting standards

New accounting standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. This new guidance, collectively with related guidance provided by the FASB, is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. The Company will adopt this standard in the first quarter 2018 and expects to use the modified retrospective method of adoption by recognizing the cumulative effect of adopting this guidance as an adjustment to the Company's opening balance of retained earnings at January 1, 2018. Although the Company's evaluation of this guidance is ongoing, based on its assessment to date, the Company believes that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that will change the requirements for accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees (including lessees under both leases classified as finance leases, which are to be classified based on criteria similar to that applicable to capital leases under current guidance, and leases classified as operating leases) will recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, initially measured as the present value of lease payments under the lease. Under current guidance, operating leases are not recognized on the balance sheet. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; the guidance provides certain practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance designed to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including, among other things, guidance related to accounting for income taxes, modification of the criteria for classification of awards as either equity awards or liability awards where an employer withholds shares from an employee's share-based award for tax withholding purposes, and classification on the statement of cash flows of cash payments to a tax authority by an employer that withholds shares from an employee's award for tax withholding purposes. The Company adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2017. The Company has applied the new guidance requiring recognition of excess tax deficiencies and tax benefits in the income statement, rather than in additional paid-in-capital, as previously required. The adoption of the new standard increased net income and cash flows from operating activities by $1.5 million and $5.9 million and increased diluted earnings per share by $0.03 and $0.13 for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2017, respectively. The Company will continue to estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the time of grant, rather than recognize actual forfeitures as they occur, as permitted under the new guidance.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance with regard to eight specific issues pertaining to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance should generally be adopted using a retrospective transition method for each period presented. The Company believes that its adoption of the new guidance will not have a material impact on its cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance requiring companies to recognize the income tax effects of intra-entity sales and transfers of assets, other than inventory, in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) in the period in which the transfer occurs. Previously, recognition was prohibited until the assets were sold to an outside party or otherwise utilized. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify the definition of a “business,” with the objective of assisting entities in evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition (or disposal) of assets or as an acquisition of a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. The guidance generally defines a business as an integrated set of activities and assets (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The guidance further provides that, to be considered a business, a set must meet specified requirements. However, the guidance also states that, if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (subject to specified exceptions) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not considered a business and no further analysis is required. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The guidance permits early adoption, and the Company adopted this guidance during the fourth quarter 2017. The Company does not anticipate that the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the quantitative test for goodwill impairment. Under current guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the entity must determine the implied value of goodwill. This determination is made by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole as if the reporting unit had just been acquired. Under the new guidance, a determination of the implied value of goodwill will no longer be required; a goodwill impairment will be equal to the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and any interim goodwill impairment tests within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans. The guidance requires that these employers disaggregate specified components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost (collectively, "net benefit cost"). Specifically, the guidance generally requires employers to present in the income statement the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and generally is required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations.

In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance with the objective of improving the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements. The new guidance provides for changes to current designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and to the method of presenting hedge results. In addition, the new guidance includes certain targeted improvements to ease the application of current guidance related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.

From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by the Company as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and, unless otherwise indicated above, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the its consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
