Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words.

These statements are based on assumptions and assessments made by our management in light of their experience and their perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments, and other factors they believe to be appropriate. Any forward-looking statement is subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements.

Some of the factors that may cause actual results, developments and business decisions to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those described under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 (the “Fiscal 2020 10-K”) and the following:

•Our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected by global health epidemics, including the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic.

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

•The demand for our offerings depends in part on our customers’ research and development and the clinical and market success of their products. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be harmed if our customers spend less on, or are less successful in, these activities. In addition, customer spending may be affected by, among other things, the COVID-19 pandemic or recessionary economic conditions caused in whole or in part by the pandemic.

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

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

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

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

•Our global operations are subject to economic, political, and regulatory risks, including the risks of changing regulatory standards or changing interpretations of existing standards, that could affect the profitability of our operations or require costly changes to our procedures. In addition, changes to our procedures, or additional procedures, implemented to comply with public health orders or best practice guidelines as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic may increase our costs or reduce our productivity and thereby affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

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

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

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

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

•Our future results of operations are subject to fluctuations in the costs, availability, and suitability of the components of the products we manufacture, including active pharmaceutical ingredients, excipients, purchased components, and raw materials. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic may interfere with the

Table of Contents

operations of certain of our direct or indirect suppliers or with international trade for these supplies, which may either raise our costs or reduce the productivity or slow the timing of our operations.

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

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

•Tax legislative or regulatory initiatives, new interpretations or developments concerning existing tax laws, or challenges to our tax positions could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

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

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

•We depend on key personnel whose continued employment and engagement at current levels cannot be assured.

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

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

•Cell and gene therapies are relatively new and still-developing modes of treatment, dependent on cutting-edge technologies, and our customers’ cell or gene therapies may be perceived as unsafe or may result in unforeseen adverse events. Negative public opinion, continuing research, or increased regulatory scrutiny of cell or gene therapies and their financial cost may damage public perception of the safety, utility, or efficacy of cell or gene therapies and harm our customers’ ability to conduct their business or obtain regulatory approvals for their cell or gene therapy products, and thereby have an indirect, adverse effect on our cell or gene therapy offerings.

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

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

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

•Our substantial leverage could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to fund our operations, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or in our industry, expose us to interest-rate risk to the extent of our variable rate debt, and prevent us from meeting our obligations under our indebtedness. These risks may be increased in a recessionary environment, particularly as sources of capital may become less available or more expensive.

•Despite our high indebtedness level, we and our subsidiaries are still capable of incurring significant additional debt, which could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness.

•Our debt agreements contain restrictions that limit our flexibility in operating our business.

Table of Contents

•Despite the limitations in our debt agreements, we retain the ability to take certain actions that may interfere with our ability timely to pay our substantial indebtedness.

•We are currently using and may in the future use derivative financial instruments to reduce our exposure to market risks from changes in interest rates on our variable-rate indebtedness or changes in currency exchange rates, and any such instrument may expose us to risks related to counterparty credit worthiness or non-performance of these instruments.

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

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended December 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2021. The consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information on the Company's accounting policies and footnotes, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the consolidated statements of operations, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of cash flows, or notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements of the Company’s operations are generally measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Adjustments to translate the assets and liabilities of operations outside the U.S. into U.S. dollars are accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income utilizing period-end exchange rates. Since July 1, 2018, the Company has accounted for its Argentine operations as highly inflationary.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Trade receivables and contract assets are primarily comprised of amounts owed to the Company through its operating activities and are presented net of an allowance that includes an assessment of expected credit losses. The Company determines its allowance methodology by considering various factors, including the Company’s previous loss history, significant changes in a geographic location's economic conditions, and the current and future condition of the general economy and the industry in which the Company's customers operate. To the extent that any individual payer is identified whose credit quality has deteriorated, the Company establishes allowances based on the individual risk characteristics of such customer. The Company makes concerted efforts to collect all outstanding balances due from customers; however, trade receivables and contract assets are written off against the allowance when the related balances are no longer deemed collectible.

Research and Development Costs

The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred. Research and development costs amounted to $5.2 million and $4.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Research and development costs amounted to $11.6 million and $9.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Recent Financial Accounting Standards

Table of Contents

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The Company adopted the guidance on July 1, 2020. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirement for Fair Value Measurement, which changes the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 Fair Value Measurement. The guidance eliminates certain disclosure requirements that are no longer considered cost beneficial and adds new disclosure requirements for Level 3 fair value measurements. The Company adopted the guidance on July 1, 2020. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a new accounting model known as Credit Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”). CECL requires earlier recognition of credit losses on financial assets, while also providing additional transparency about credit risk. The CECL model utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses for financial assets at the time they are originated or acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses. This model replaces the multiple existing impairment models in current U.S. GAAP, which generally require that a loss be incurred before it is recognized. The new standard applies to receivables arising from revenue transactions such as contract assets and accounts receivables. The Company adopted the amended guidance using a modified retrospective approach on July 1, 2020. The amended guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

New Accounting Standards Not Adopted as of December 31, 2020

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for the discontinuation of a reference rate such as LIBOR, formerly known as the London Interbank Offered Rate, because of reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions provided by the guidance do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022. The ASU is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which eliminates certain exceptions related to the incremental approach for intra-period allocation, deferred tax recognition requirement for changes in equity method investments and foreign subsidiaries, and methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period. The guidance also simplifies certain aspects of the accounting for franchise taxes, the accounting for step-up in the tax basis of goodwill, and accounting for the change in the enacted change in tax laws or rates. The ASU will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

2. REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company generally earns its revenue by supplying goods or providing services under contracts with its customers in three primary revenue streams: manufacturing and commercial product supply, development services, and clinical supply services. The Company measures the revenue from customers based on the consideration specified in its contracts, excluding any sales incentive or amount collected on behalf of a third party.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions as incurred because either the amortization period is one year or less, or the balance with an amortization period greater than one year is not material.

The following tables allocate revenue, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, by type of activity and reporting segment (in millions):

3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Anagni Acquisition

In January 2020, the Company acquired an oral solid, biologics, and sterile product manufacturing and packaging facility in Anagni, Italy (“Anagni”) from a unit of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (“BMS”). The Company paid to BMS $55.3 million in cash as part of the purchase consideration and as consideration for the provision of certain services to facilitate the transition from BMS to Company ownership. At the closing of this acquisition, BMS also entered into a five-year agreement for continuing supply by the Company of certain products formerly produced by BMS at the Anagni facility. Due to the variety of activities performed at Anagni, the results of the Anagni facility are allocated between the Oral and Specialty Delivery and Biologics segments.

The total cash consideration was allocated between the facility purchase and the transitional services arrangement, with $52.2 million assigned to the purchase consideration and the balance to transitional services. The Company funded the entire purchase price with cash on hand and has allocated the purchase price among the acquired assets, recognizing property, plant, and equipment of $34.2 million, inventory of $6.5 million, and prepaid expenses and other of $12.2 million. The remainder of the value was allocated to deferred tax assets and certain employee-related liabilities assumed in the acquisition.

Masthercell Global Inc. Acquisition

In February 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest in Masthercell Global Inc. (“MaSTherCell”) for an aggregate purchase price of $323.3 million, subject to adjustment, which was funded with the net proceeds of the Company’s February 2020 public offering (the “February 2020 Equity Offering”) of its common stock, par value $0.01 (“Common Stock”). See Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. MaSTherCell is a contract

Table of Contents

development and manufacturing organization focused on the development and manufacture of autologous and allogeneic cell therapies for third parties, as well as a variety of related analytical services.

The Company accounted for the MaSTherCell acquisition using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805. The operating results of MaSTherCell have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period following the acquisition date.

The Company preliminarily estimated fair values at the date of acquisition for the preliminary allocation of consideration to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the MaSTherCell acquisition. The Company recognized, property, plant and equipment of $25.5 million, $51.0 million for identifiable intangible assets, $2.0 million for other net assets, and $7.7 million for deferred income tax liabilities. The remainder of the fair value, $252.5 million, was preliminarily allocated to goodwill. Goodwill is mainly comprised of the growth from an expected increase in capacity utilization, potential new customers, and advanced cell therapy development and manufacturing capabilities.

During the measurement period ending no later than one year after the acquisition date, the Company has continued to obtain information to assist in finalizing the fair values of the net assets acquired, which have not differed materially from these preliminary estimates. The amounts subject to finalization include working capital and income taxes. If any remaining measurement period adjustment is material, the Company will record such adjustment, including any related impact on net income, prior to the expiration of the measurement period.

Skeletal Cell Therapy Support SA Acquisition

In November 2020, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interest in Skeletal Cell Therapy Support SA (“Skeletal”) from Bone Therapeutics SA (“Bone”) for $14.8 million, subject to customary adjustments, as well as related supply agreements with Bone. Skeletal operates a cell therapy manufacturing facility in Gosselies, Belgium. The facility and operations are part of the Company’s Biologics segment, expanding the Company’s cell therapy capacity for clinical and commercial supply. The acquisition, when combined with the Company's other European-based facilities and capabilities in cell therapy, will create an integrated European center of excellence in cell therapy.

The Company accounted for the Skeletal acquisition using the acquisition method in accordance with ASC 805. The Company funded the entire purchase price with cash on hand and has preliminarily allocated the purchase price among the acquired assets, recognizing property, plant, and equipment of $8.7 million and goodwill of $5.4 million. The remainder of the value was allocated to trade receivables, and to other current and non-current assets and liabilities assumed in the acquisition. The Company expects to finalize its allocation over the next several months, but, in any event, within one year from the closing.

Blow-Fill-Seal Divestiture Agreement

In December 2020, the Company entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement with a subsidiary of SK Capital Partners, LP to sell the Company’s blow-fill-seal manufacturing business, including 100% of the shares of Catalent USA Woodstock, Inc. (the “Blow-Fill-Seal Business”), for $300.0 million in cash and a $50.0 million note receivable as well as potential additional contingent consideration (up to $50.0 million) based on future events concerning the Blow-Fill-Seal Business. The Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close before the end of fiscal 2021. The Blow-Fill-Seal Business is part of the Oral and Specialty Delivery segment. As of December 31, 2020, the Blow-Fill-Seal Business met the criteria to be classified as held for sale; as a result, these assets and liabilities have been reclassified within the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. Refer to Note 4, Goodwill and Note 16, Supplemental Balance Sheet Information for more details.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company computes earnings per share of the Company’s Common Stock using the two-class method required due to the participating nature of the Series A Preferred Stock (as defined and discussed in Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Diluted net earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding plus the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive instruments. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net earnings per share are excluded from the calculation. The dilutive effect of the securities that are issuable under the Company’s equity incentive plans are reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The reconciliations between basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Catalent common shareholders for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are as follows (in millions, except share and per share data):


	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,

Net earnings	$	88.4	$	45.5	$	170.8	$	45.6
Less: Net earnings attributable to preferred shareholders	(11.8)		(11.2)		(25.4)		(18.7)
Net earnings attributable to common shareholders	$	76.6	$	34.3	$	145.4	$	26.9

Weighted average shares outstanding - basic	167,075,141		146,068,025		165,589,730		145,865,570
Weighted average dilutive securities issuable - stock plans	2,203,948		1,622,896		2,498,460		1,904,121
Weighted average diluted shares outstanding - diluted	169,279,089		147,690,921		168,088,190		147,769,691

Earnings per share:


Basic	$	0.46	$	0.23	$	0.88	$	0.18




Diluted	$	0.45	$	0.23	$	0.87	$	0.18

The Company's Series A Preferred Stock is deemed a participating security, meaning that it has the right to participate in undistributed earnings with the Company's Common Stock. On November 23, 2020 (the “Partial Conversion Date”), holders of Series A Preferred Stock converted 265,233 shares and $1.9 million of unpaid accrued dividends into shares of Common Stock (the “Partial Conversion”). The holders received 20.33 shares of Common Stock for each converted preferred share, resulting in the issuance of 5,392,280 shares of Common Stock. See Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss for further details. There was no anti-dilutive impact from employee-held stock options and restricted stock units in the computation of diluted earnings per share for both the three and six months ended December 31, 2020. The computation of diluted earnings per share for both the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 excludes the effect of

approximately 7.7 million “if-converted” shares of Common Stock potentially issuable on the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as those shares would be anti-dilutive.

The computations of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 exclude the effect of Common Stock potentially issuable under employee-held stock options and restricted stock units of approximately 0.7 million and 1.0 million, respectively, because they are anti-dilutive. Further, the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, respectively, excludes the effect of approximately 13.1 million “if-converted” shares of Common Stock potentially issuable on the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock, as those shares would be anti-dilutive.

8. OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET

The components of other (income) expense, net for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:


	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,

From time to time, the Company has implemented plans to restructure certain operations, both domestically and internationally. The restructuring plans focused on various aspects of operations, including closing and consolidating certain manufacturing operations, rationalizing headcount and aligning operations in a strategic and more cost-efficient structure. In addition, the Company may incur restructuring charges in the future in cases where a material change in the scope of operation with its business occurs. Employee-related costs consist primarily of severance costs and also include outplacement services provided to employees who have been involuntarily terminated and duplicate payroll costs during transition periods. Facility exit and other costs consist of accelerated depreciation, equipment relocation costs and costs associated with planned facility expansions and closures to streamline Company operations.

During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company adopted a plan to reduce costs and optimize its infrastructure in Western Europe by closing its Clinical Supply Services facility in Bolton, U.K. In connection with this restructuring plan, the Company expects to reduce its headcount between 150 and 180 employees through December 31, 2021 and estimates that it will incur charges between $4.0 million and $7.0 million, primarily associated with employee severance benefits.

For both the three months and six months ended December 31, 2020, restructuring charges associated with the Bolton facility closure were $4.0 million.

Total restructuring charges for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $5.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $6.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

10. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the applicable exchange rate on its investments in operations outside the U.S. While the Company does not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, the Company has mitigated its exposure from its investments in its European operations by denominating a portion of its debt in euros. At December 31, 2020, the Company had euro-denominated debt outstanding of $993.1 million (U.S. dollar equivalent) that is designated and qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. For non-derivatives designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, the translation gains or losses are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. The non-hedge portions of the euro-denominated debt translation gains or losses are reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The following table includes net investment hedge activity during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.


	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,
(Dollars in millions)	2020		2019		2020		2019
Unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) within other comprehensive income	$	(45.4)	$	(6.5)	$	(77.8)	$	13.8
Unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) within statement of operations	$	(2.5)	$	(3.9)	$	(4.4)	$	(5.8)

The net accumulated loss on the instrument designated as a hedge as of December 31, 2020 within other comprehensive income (loss) was approximately $15.3 million. Amounts are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings when the entity to which the gains and losses relate is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Preferred Stock Derivative Liability

As discussed in Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock, and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, in May 2019, the Company issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for net proceeds of $646.3 million after taking into account the $3.7 million issuance cost.

The dividend rate used to determine the amount of the quarterly dividend payable on shares of the Series A Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment so as to provide holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock with certain protections against a decline in the trading price of shares of Common Stock. The Company determined that this feature should be accounted for as a derivative liability, since the feature fluctuates inversely to changes in the trading price and is also linked to the performance of the S&P 500 stock index. Accordingly, the Company bifurcated the adjustable dividend feature from the remainder of the Series A Preferred Stock and accounted for this feature as a derivative liability at fair value. The Company will recognize changes in the fair value of the derivative liability in the consolidated statements of operations for each reporting period. The fair value was determined using an option pricing methodology, specifically both a Monte Carlo simulation and a binomial lattice model. The methodology incorporates the terms and conditions of the preferred stock arrangement, historical stock price volatility, the risk-free interest rate, a credit spread based on the yield indexes of high-yield bonds, and the trading price of shares of the Common Stock. The calculation of the estimated fair value of the derivative liability is highly sensitive to changes in unobservable inputs, such as the expected volatility and the Company’s specific credit spread.

The Company recorded a total gain of $7.0 million on the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability for the three months ended December 31, 2020, primarily related to volatility in the price of the Company’s Common Stock that is used to estimate the fair value, which is reflected as Other (income) expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

A portion of the derivative liability was settled on the Partial Conversion Date due to the Partial Conversion. The fair value of the derivative liability as of the Partial Conversion Date was $8.6 million, of which $3.5 million was related to the converted portion of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. See Note 13, Equity, Redeemable Preferred Stock, and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss for details of the Partial Conversion.

The fair value of the derivative liability that relates to outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock as of December 31, 2020 was $4.1 million.

Table of Contents

The fair value is classified as Level 3 in the fair-value hierarchy due to the significant management judgment required for the assumptions underlying the calculation of value. The following table sets forth a summary of changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative liability:


(Dollars in millions)	Fair Value Measurements of Series A Preferred Stock Derivative Liability Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Balance at June 30, 2020	$	23.6
Change in estimated fair value of Series A Preferred Stock derivative liability	(16.0)
Settlement of derivative liability upon Partial Conversion	(3.5)
Balance at December 31, 2020	$	4.1

Interest-Rate Swap

Pursuant to its interest rate and risk management strategy, in April 2020, Operating Company entered into an interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. as a hedge against the economic effect of a portion of the variable interest obligation associated with its U.S dollar-denominated term loans under its senior secured credit facilities, so that the interest payable on that portion of the debt becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest rate changes on future interest expense. As a result of entering into the interest-rate swap agreement, the floating portion of the applicable rate on $500.0 million of the term loans is now effectively fixed at 1.26%, for a total fixed rate of 3.51%.

The interest-rate swap agreement qualifies for and is designated as a cash-flow hedge. The Company evaluates hedge effectiveness at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis.

The fair value of the interest-rate swap agreement is determined at the end of each reporting period based on valuation models that use interest rate yield curves and discount rates as inputs. The discount rates are based on U.S. deposit or U.S. Treasury rates. The significant inputs used in the valuation models are readily available in public markets or can be derived from observable market transactions, and, therefore, the valuation has been classified as a Level 2 in the fair-value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the interest rate swap as of both December 31, 2020 and as of June 30, 2020 was reported as a derivative liability of $3.7 million within other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The cash flows associated with the interest-rate swap are reported in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The unrealized gain or loss from the mark-to-market of the interest rate swap valuation during the six months ended December 31, 2020 and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 was immaterial in each period.

11. INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are due to changes in relative amounts of U.S. and non-U.S. pretax income, the tax impact of special items, and other discrete tax items. Discrete items include, but are not limited to, changes in foreign statutory tax rates, the amortization of certain assets, changes in the Company’s reserve for uncertain tax positions, and the tax impact of certain equity compensation.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities around the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. The Company is no longer subject to examinations by the relevant tax authorities for years prior to fiscal year 2009. The Company is presently under audit in select jurisdictions in the United States and in Europe, but no material impact is expected to the financial results once these audits are completed.

ASC 740 includes guidance on the accounting for uncertain income tax positions recognized in our tax filings. This standard provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeal or litigation process, based on the technical merits. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company had an aggregate of $4.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of reserves against uncertain tax positions (including accrued interest and penalties). As of these dates, $3.2 million and $4.4 million, respectively, represent the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate. The reduction to unrecognized tax benefits is primarily driven by a settlement of an income tax audit that occurred in the fiscal quarter that ended September 30, 2020. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are recognized as a component of income tax expense.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2020 of $20.6 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $109.0 million. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2019 of $13.0 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $58.5 million. The increased income tax provision for the current period was largely impacted by an increase in pretax income across several jurisdictions and partially offset by an increase in discrete benefit items including certain equity compensation deductions. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are due to changes in the geographic distribution of our pretax income resulting from our business mix, changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, special items, certain equity related compensation, and other discrete tax items that may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2020 of $5.6 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $176.4 million. The Company recorded a provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2019 of $6.1 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $51.7 million. The reduced income tax provision for the current six-month period reflects a $22.2 million benefit for U.S. foreign tax credits resulting from an amendment to a prior-year return. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are due to changes in the geographic distribution of the Company's pretax income, the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, special items, certain equity related compensation, and other discrete tax items that may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

12. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Components of the Company’s net periodic benefit costs are as follows:


	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,
(Dollars in millions)	2020		2019		2020		2019
Components of net periodic benefit cost:

(1) Amount represents the amortization of unrecognized actuarial losses.

As previously disclosed, the Company notified the trustees of a multi-employer pension plan of its withdrawal from participation in such plan in fiscal 2012. The actuarial review process administered by the plan trustees ended in fiscal 2015. The liability reported reflects the present value of the Company’s expected future long-term obligations. The estimated discounted value of the projected contributions related to such plans was $38.6 million as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, and is included within pension liability on the consolidated balance sheets. The annual cash impact associated with the Company’s obligations in such plan is approximately $1.7 million per year.

13. EQUITY, REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK AND ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Description of Capital Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000,000 shares of its Common Stock and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. In accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, each share of Common Stock has one vote, and the Common Stock votes together as a single class.

Recent Public Offerings of its Common Stock

On June 15, 2020, the Company completed a public offering of its Common Stock (the “June 2020 Equity Offering”), in which the Company sold 7.7 million shares of Common Stock at a price of $70.72 per share, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company obtained total net proceeds from the June 2020 Equity Offering of $547.5 million after the payment of associated offering expenses. The net proceeds of the June 2020 Equity Offering were used to repay $200.0 million

of precautionary borrowings from the third quarter of fiscal 2020 under Operating Company's revolving credit facility, with the remainder available for general corporate purposes. On July 10, 2020, the underwriter for the June 2020 Equity Offering exercised its over-allotment option on 1.2 million additional shares, resulting in supplemental net proceeds of $81.8 million from the June 2020 Equity Offering, which was recorded in the current period.

On February 6, 2020, the Company completed the February 2020 Equity Offering, in which the Company sold 8.4 million shares of Common Stock at a price of $58.58 per share, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company obtained total net proceeds from the February 2020 Equity Offering of $494.2 million. The net proceeds of the February 2020 Equity Offering were used to repay $100.0 million of borrowings earlier in the quarter under Operating Company's revolving credit facility and pay the consideration for the MaSTherCell acquisition due at its closing, with the remainder available for general corporate purposes.

Effect of Restricted Stock

Shares of Common Stock outstanding include shares of unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock included in reportable shares outstanding was 0.2 million shares as of December 31, 2020. Shares of unvested restricted stock are excluded from the calculation of basic weighted average shares outstanding, but their dilutive impact is added back in the calculation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Redeemable Preferred Stock

In May 2019, the Company designated 1,000,000 shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.01, as its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), pursuant to a certificate of designation of preferences, rights, and limitations (as amended, the “Certificate of Designation”) filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, and issued and sold 650,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $650.0 million, to affiliates of Leonard Green & Partners, L.P., each share having an initial stated value of $1,000 (as such value may be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation). The Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s Common Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the affairs of the Company.

Proceeds from the offering of the Series A Preferred Stock, net of stock issuance costs, were $646.3 million, $39.7 million of which was allocated to the dividend-adjustment feature at its issuance and separately accounted for as a derivative liability. Any change in the fair value of derivative liability during a fiscal quarter is recorded as a non-operating expense in the consolidated statement of operations. See Note 10, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, for detail concerning the change in fair value during the three and six months ended December 31, 2020.

As described in Note 7, Earnings Per Share, on the Partial Conversion Date, holders of Series A Preferred Stock converted 265,233 shares (approximately 41% of their holdings) and $1.9 million of unpaid accrued dividends into shares of Common Stock. The holders received 20.33 shares of Common Stock for each converted preferred share, resulting in the issuance of 5,392,280 shares of Common Stock. There was no gain or loss recognized upon the Partial Conversion as it occurred in accordance with the original terms of the Certificate of Designation. The Company has 384,777 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that remain outstanding at December 31, 2020.

As a result of the Partial Conversion, additional paid in capital increased $252.9 million, which includes $3.5 million related to the fair value of the portion of the derivative liability that was settled upon the Partial Conversion and $1.9 million related to an unpaid accrued dividend. See Note 10, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, for detail concerning the change in fair value during the three months ended December 31, 2020.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of any of which could be significant. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against any such litigation and does not currently believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.

From time to time, the Company receives subpoenas or requests for information relating to the business practices and activities of customers or suppliers from various governmental agencies or private parties, including from state attorneys general, the U.S. Department of Justice, and private parties engaged in patent infringement, antitrust, tort, and other litigation. The Company generally responds to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred. The Company expects to incur costs in future periods in connection with future requests.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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

The Company

We are the leading global provider of advanced delivery technologies, development, and manufacturing solutions for drugs, protein, nucleic acid, cell, and gene therapy biologics, and consumer health products. Our oral, injectable, cell and gene therapy, and respiratory delivery technologies address the full diversity of the pharmaceutical industry, including small molecules; protein, cell, and gene therapy biologics; and consumer health products. Through our extensive capabilities and deep expertise in product development, we help our customers take products to market faster, including nearly half of new drug products approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the last decade. Our advanced delivery technology platforms, which include those in our Softgel and Oral Technologies, Biologics, and Oral and Specialty Delivery segments, our proven formulation, manufacturing, and regulatory expertise, and our broad and deep intellectual property enable our customers to develop more products and better treatments for patients and consumers. Across both development and delivery, our commitment to reliably supply our customers’ and their patients' needs is the foundation for the value we provide; annually, we produce approximately 74 billion doses for nearly 7,000 customer products, or approximately 1 in every 20 doses of such product taken each year by patients and consumers around the world. We believe that, through our investments in growth-enabling capacity and capabilities, our ongoing focus on operational and quality excellence, the sales of existing and introduction of new customer products, our innovation activities and patents, and our entry into new markets, we will continue to benefit from attractive and differentiated margins and realize the growth potential from these areas.

The COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has spread across the globe and is affecting economic activity worldwide, including in the countries in which we, our customers, our suppliers, and our other business partners conduct business. Governments in affected regions have implemented, and may continue to implement, measures to protect public health, including quarantines, travel restrictions, business closures, cancellations of public gatherings, and measures that affect the flow of goods, services, and people between different regions. We have taken and continue to take steps to avoid or reduce infection or contamination and otherwise protect our employees and our business, in line with guidelines issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and local authorities where we operate, to re-emphasize good hygiene practices, severely restrict non-employee access to our sites, reorganize our workflows where permitted to maximize social distancing, limit our employees to only business-critical travel (where permitted by local law), facilitate safer alternatives to travel to and from work, and employ remote-working strategies. In addition, to address the multiple dimensions of the pandemic, senior, multi-disciplinary teams reporting directly to our Chief Executive Officer have been continuously monitoring the global situation, executing mitigation activities whenever and wherever required, and planning for a phased and structured return to our facilities as circumstances will permit for those employees who have been remote-working.

We have reviewed and will continue to analyze our supply chain to identify any risk, delay, or concern that may have an impact on our ability to deliver our services and products. To date, we have not identified any significant risk, delay, or concern that would have a substantial effect on such delivery. We have adopted various procedures to minimize and manage any future disruption to our ongoing operations. These include procuring expanded safety stocks of raw materials and personal protective equipment across our network, as well as ongoing monitoring of our suppliers’ stock levels to assure future deliveries. Our existing procedures, which are consistent with cGMP and other regulatory standards, are intended to assure the integrity of our supply, including against any contamination. We have a detailed response plan to manage any impact of the virus on employee health, site operations, and product supply, including immediate assessment of the health of employees reporting symptoms, comprehensive risk assessment of any impact to quality, additional cleaning protocols, and alternative shift patterns to compensate should fewer employees be available.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, or results of operations to date, but, at this point, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may affect our future financial condition or results of operations remains uncertain and will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including the duration of the pandemic, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the virus, and the actions governments, the pharmaceutical industry, competitors, suppliers, customers, patients, and others may take to contain or address its direct and indirect effects. The COVID-19 pandemic and associated mitigation measures may also have an adverse impact on healthcare systems, global economic conditions, or economic conditions in one or more regions where we, our suppliers, or our customers operate, which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We have observed some increases in customer delays and cancellations, occasional increases in absenteeism of production employees in our facilities in certain affected regions, and a small percentage of our customers expecting a reduction in demand and a larger percentage expecting an increase in demand, in each case due to circumstances relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the responsive measures. We have also seen revenue increases and the potential for further revenue increases related to projects seeking to address the

COVID-19 pandemic or its effects. Future financial periods may reflect greater effects of the pandemic on the results of our operations.

See also “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and Industry — Our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be adversely affected by global health epidemics, including the COVID-19 pandemic” in our Fiscal 2020 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Management made certain estimates and assumptions during the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. These estimates also affect the reported amount of net earnings during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Because of the size of the financial statement elements to which they relate, some of our accounting policies and estimates have a more significant impact on the consolidated financial statements than others.

There was no material change to our critical accounting policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates from those described in our Fiscal 2020 10-K, other than recently adopted accounting principles disclosed in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”), which adoptions had no material impact on net earnings.

Non-GAAP Metrics

EBITDA from operations

Management measures operating performance based on consolidated earnings from operations before interest expense, expense (benefit) for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the income or loss attributable to non-controlling interests (“EBITDA from operations”). EBITDA from operations is not defined under U.S. GAAP, is not a measure of operating income, operating performance, or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA from operations enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We believe this measure is a useful financial metric to assess our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business and use this measure for business planning purposes. In addition, given the significant investments that we have made in the past in property, plant, and equipment, depreciation and amortization expenses represent a meaningful portion of our cost structure. We believe that EBITDA from operations will provide investors with a useful tool for assessing the comparability between periods of our ability to generate cash from operations sufficient to pay taxes, to service debt, and to undertake capital expenditures because it eliminates depreciation and amortization expense. We present EBITDA from operations in order to provide supplemental information that we consider relevant for the readers of our Consolidated Financial Statements, and such information is not meant to replace or supersede U.S. GAAP measures. Our definition of EBITDA from operations may not be the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The most directly comparable measure to EBITDA from operations defined under U.S. GAAP is net earnings. Included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis is a reconciliation of net earnings to EBITDA from operations.

In addition, we evaluate the performance of our segments based on segment earnings before non-controlling interests, other (income) expense, impairments, restructuring costs, interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization (“Segment EBITDA”).

Use of Constant Currency

As exchange rates are an important factor in understanding period-to-period comparisons, we believe the presentation of results on a constant-currency basis in addition to reported results helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating results and evaluate our performance in comparison to prior periods. Constant-currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. We use results on a constant-currency basis as one measure to evaluate our performance. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we compute constant currency by calculating current-year results using prior-year foreign currency exchange rates. We generally refer to such amounts calculated on a constant-currency basis as excluding the impact of foreign exchange. These results should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, results reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Results on a constant-currency basis, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Table of Contents

Other Non-GAAP Measures

Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth are measures we use to explain the underlying results and trends in the business. Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth are measures used to show current year sales and earnings from existing operations and include revenue from licensing related activities entered into within the year. Organic revenue growth and Segment EBITDA growth exclude the impact of foreign currency, acquisitions of operating or legal entities, and divestitures within the year. These measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, performance measures reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures, as we present them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measures of performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Compared to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2019

The below tables summarize several financial metrics we use to measure performance for the three months ended December 31, 2020 and three months ended December 31, 2019. Refer to the discussions below regarding performance and use of key financial metrics.

Results for the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019 were as follows:

Net Revenue


	2020 vs. 2019
Factors Contributing to Year-Over-Year Change	Three Months Ended December 31,
	Net Revenue
Net revenue without acquisitions	17	%
Impact of acquisitions	7	%

Constant currency change	24	%
Foreign currency translation impact on reporting	2	%
Total % change	26	%

Net revenue increased $171.5 million, or 24%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. Net revenue increased 7% as a result of acquisitions. We acquired a facility in Anagni, Italy (“Anagni”) in January 2020, Masthercell Global Inc. (“MaSTherCell”) in February 2020, and Skeletal Cell Therapy Support SA ("Skeletal") in November 2020. Net revenue increased 17% without the impact of acquisitions on a constant-currency basis, primarily due to robust demand across all Biologics offerings, in particular demand for our drug product and drug substance offerings for COVID-19-related programs, offset in part due to decreased demand for our customers' prescription and consumer health products in the Softgel and Oral Technologies segment. For the three months ended December 31, 2020, the favorable impact COVID-19-related programs had on Biologics net revenue was partially offset by an unfavorable impact due to demand decreases attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic on Softgel and Oral Technologies' net revenue.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased $59.0 million, or 25%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, primarily as a result of the strong margin profile for all Biologics segment offerings, including demand across our drug product and drug substance offerings for COVID-19 related programs, offset by decreased demand for our prescription and consumer health products in the Softgel and Oral Technologies segment. On a constant-currency basis, gross margin, as a percentage of revenue, increased 40 basis points to 32.6% in the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to 32.2% in the prior-year period, primarily due to the factors described above.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $23.1 million, or 16%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, due to incremental expenses from acquired companies of $5.6 million, which includes $1.1 million of incremental depreciation and amortization expense, $2.0 million of employee-related costs and $1.9 million related to various transitional services. The year-over-year increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was also due to a $13.7 million increase in employee-related costs primarily incurred for wages and bonuses, which was partially offset by $6.4 million in costs savings associated with health and welfare and $3.3 million in cost savings associated with travel and entertainment.

Additionally, selling, general, and administrative expenses were further increased by $9.8 million related to increases in information technology expenses associated with headcount increases and additional cyber security initiatives, insurance premium increases, certain market research initiatives, and COVID-19-related spend for personal protective equipment and test kits for our employees.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other charges of $5.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 increased by $5.0 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. Restructuring expense varies period-to-period based on site consolidation efforts and other efforts to further streamline the business. In the three months ended December 31, 2020, we adopted a plan to reduce costs and optimize our Clinical Supply Services infrastructure in Western Europe by closing our facility in Bolton, U.K. and moving services to other locations in the region. In connection with this restructuring plan, we expect to reduce our headcount by approximately 150 to 180 employees through December 31, 2021 and incur charges between $4.0 million and $7.0 million primarily associated with employee severance benefits. For the three months ended December 31, 2020, we recognized $4.0 million of restructuring charges in association with the Bolton facility closure.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of $25.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 decreased by $9.2 million, or 26%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, driven by savings from repayment of Operating Company’s formerly outstanding euro-denominated term loan, euro-denominated 4.75% senior notes due 2024 and favorable interest rate movement on the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan, partially offset by interest expenses on Operating Company's euro-denominated 2.375% senior notes due 2028 (the “Euro 2028 Notes”). The savings also includes $4.0 million of capitalized interest costs for the three months ended December 31, 2020.

For additional information concerning our debt and financing arrangements, including the changing mix of debt and equity in our capital structure, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Note 6, Long-Term Obligations and Short-Term Borrowings to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other (Income) Expense, net

Other income, net of $8.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020 was primarily driven by a gain of $7.0 million related to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability arising from the dividend-adjustment mechanism of our series A convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). See Notes 10 and 13 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for more details on the Series A Preferred Stock dividend-adjustment mechanism.

Other income, net of $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was primarily driven by a gain of $10.3 million related to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability arising from the dividend-adjustment mechanism of the Series A Preferred Stock. The gain was partially offset by non-cash foreign currency translation losses of $5.5 million.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2020 was $20.6 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $109.0 million. Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $13.0 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $58.5 million. The increased income tax provision for the current period was largely impacted by an increase in pretax income across several jurisdictions and partially offset by an increase in discrete benefit items including certain equity compensation deductions. Generally, fluctuations in our effective tax rate are due to changes in the geographic distribution of our pretax income resulting from our business mix, changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, special items, certain equity related compensation, and other discrete tax items, that may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

Biologics net revenue increased by $170.8 million, or 76%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. Net revenue increased 65%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. The increase was driven across all segment offerings with robust end-market demand for our global drug product and drug substance offerings, primarily related to demand for COVID-19 related programs.

Biologics Segment EBITDA increased by $68.6 million, or 109%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. Segment EBITDA increased 104%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. The increase was driven across all segment offerings with robust end-market demand for our global drug product and drug substance offerings, predominantly related to demand for COVID-19 related programs.

Since December 30, 2019, we have acquired Anagni, part of which operates within the Biologics segment, MaSTherCell and Skeletal, which together increased net revenue and Segment EBITDA on an inorganic basis in our Biologics segment by 11% and 5%, respectively, in the three months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the corresponding prior-year period.

Softgel and Oral Technologies segment

Total % change	(8)	%	(29)	%

Softgel and Oral Technologies net revenue decreased by $26.5 million, or 10%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease primarily relates to reduced end market demand for prescription products within North America and Europe, as well as lower demand in consumer health products, particularly in cough, cold, and over-the-counter pain relief products attributable to effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The net revenue decrease is partially offset by strong development revenue growth.

Table of Contents

Softgel and Oral Technologies Segment EBITDA decreased $19.9 million, or 31%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease, similar to that of net revenue, is primarily driven by a decrease in demand in both the prescription and consumer health portfolio of products, offset in part by the margin generated from strong development revenue growth.

Net revenue increased 2%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. Increased demand for the segment’s orally delivered Zydis commercial products and early-phase development programs were partially offset by decreased demand for other non-Zydis orally delivered commercial products.

Oral and Specialty Delivery Segment EBITDA increased by $10.2 million, or 31%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase from the prior-year period was primarily driven by increased demand for the segment’s orally delivered Zydis commercial products, early-phase development programs and favorable manufacturing efficiencies within our respiratory and ophthalmic platform.

We acquired Anagni on January 1, 2020 and the portion of this facility allocated to our Oral and Specialty Delivery segment increased net revenue and Segment EBITDA on an inorganic basis by 15% and 22%, respectively, in the three months ended December 31, 2020, compared to the corresponding prior-year period.

Factors Contributing to Year-Over-Year Change	Six Months Ended December 31,
	Net Revenue
Net revenue without acquisitions/divestitures	19	%

Net revenue increased by $342.8 million, or 25%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Net revenue increased 7% as a result of acquisitions, which was partially offset by a 1% decrease in net revenue due to a facility divestiture. We acquired Anagni in January 2020, MaSTherCell in February 2020, and Skeletal in November 2020 and divested a facility in Australia in October 2019. Net revenue increased 19% without the impact of acquisitions and divestitures on a constant-currency basis, primarily related to robust demand across all our Biologics offerings,

in particular demand for our drug product and drug substance offerings for COVID-19-related programs, offset in part due to decreased demand for our prescription and consumer health products in the Softgel and Oral Technologies segment. For the six months ended December 31, 2020, the favorable impact COVID-19-related programs had on Biologics net revenue was partially offset by an unfavorable impact due to demand decreases attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic on Softgel and Oral Technologies' net revenue.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased by $126.3 million, or 31%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, primarily as a result of the strong margin profile for all Biologics segment offerings, including demand across our drug product and drug substance offerings for COVID-19 related programs. Growth was offset in part by decreased demand for our prescription and consumer health products in the Softgel and Oral Technologies segment and a one-time charge totaling $14 million following the voluntary recall in the U.S. of a recently launched product in our respiratory and ophthalmic platform. On a constant-currency basis, gross margin, as a percentage of revenue, increased 140 basis points to 31% in the six months ended December 31, 2020, compared to 29.6% in the corresponding prior-year period, primarily due to recent acquisitions.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $44 million, or 16%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, driven by additional selling, general and administrative expenses from acquired companies of $11.2 million, including $2.2 million of incremental depreciation and amortization expense, $3.8 million for employee-related costs and $3.6 million related to various transitional services. An additional $25.9 million of employee-related cost primarily incurred for wages and bonuses, was partially offset by $7.2 million in cost savings associated with health and welfare and $6.5 million in savings related to travel and entertainment expenses.

The year-over-year increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses was also due to a $17.2 million increase in information technology spend associated with headcount increases and additional cyber security initiatives, insurance premium increases, certain market research initiatives and COVID-19 related spend for personal protective equipment and test kits for our employees.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other charges of $6.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020 increased by $5.2 million, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Restructuring expense varies period-to-period based on site consolidation efforts and other efforts to further streamline the business. In the three months ended December 31, 2020, we adopted a plan to reduce costs and optimize our infrastructure in Western Europe by closing our Clinical Supply Services facility in Bolton, U.K. In connection with this restructuring plan, we expect to reduce our headcount by approximately 150 to 180 employees through December 31, 2021 and incur charges between $4.0 million to $7.0 million, primarily associated with employee severance benefits. For the six months ended December 31, 2020, we recognized $4.0 million of restructuring charges in association with the Bolton facility closure.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of $51.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020 decreased by $20.0 million, or 28%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, driven by savings from repayment of Operating Company’s formerly outstanding euro-denominated term loan, euro-denominated 4.75% senior notes due 2024 and favorable interest rate movement on the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan, partially offset by interest expenses on Operating Company's Euro 2028 Notes. The savings also includes $10.2 million of capitalized interest costs for the six months ended December 31, 2020.

Other (Income) Expense, net

Other income, net of $19.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020 was primarily driven by a gain of $16.0 million related to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability arising from the dividend adjustment mechanism of the Series A Preferred Stock and a net foreign currency translation gain of $0.8 million.

Other expense, net for the six months ended December 31, 2019 of $0.5 million includes a gain of $1.4 million related to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability arising from the dividend adjustment mechanism of the Series A Preferred Stock, the foreign currency gain of $4.4 million and non-cash foreign currency translation losses of $8.0 million.

Income Tax Expense

Our provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2020 was $5.6 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $176.4 million. Our provision for income taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2019 was $6.1 million relative to earnings before income taxes of $51.7 million. The reduced income tax provision for the current six-month period reflects an increase in the pretax earnings significantly offset by discrete items including a $22.2 million benefit for U.S. foreign tax credits resulting from amending a prior-year return. Generally, fluctuations in our effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in the geographic distribution of our pretax income resulting from our business mix, changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, special items, certain equity related compensation, and other discrete tax items that may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item.

Net revenue in our Biologics segment increased by $356.0 million, or 86%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Net revenue increased 73%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. The increase was driven across all segment offerings with robust end-market demand for the global drug product, drug substance and cell and gene therapy, in part related to demand for COVID-19 related programs.

Biologics Segment EBITDA increased by $138.2 million, or 140%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Segment EBITDA increased 132%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. The increase was driven across all segment offerings with robust end-market demand for the global drug product, drug substance, and cell and gene therapy offerings, in part related to demand for

Table of Contents

COVID-19-related programs. The increase in Segment EBITDA was partially offset by an increase in base costs associated with our commercial readiness activity across our cell and gene therapy offering.

Since December 30, 2019, we have acquired Anagni, part of which operates within the Biologics segment, MaSTherCell and Skeletal, which together increased net revenue and Segment EBITDA on an inorganic basis in our Biologics segment by 13% and 8%, respectively, in the six months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the corresponding prior-year period.

Softgel and Oral Technologies segment

Softgel and Oral Technologies’ net revenue decreased $68 million, or 13%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Net revenue decreased 11%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of divestitures. The decrease primarily relates to reduced end market demand for prescription products within North America and Europe, as well as lower demand in consumer health products, particularly in cough, cold, and over-the-counter pain relief products attributable to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The net revenue decrease is partially offset by strong development revenue growth.

Softgel and Oral Technologies’ Segment EBITDA decreased by $29.3 million, or 26%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019. Segment EBITDA decreased 27%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of divestitures. The decrease, similar to that of net revenue, is primarily driven by a decrease in demand in both the prescription and consumer health portfolio of products, offset in part by the margin generated from strong development revenue growth.

In October 2019, we divested a manufacturing facility in Australia in order to better streamline our global operations. The facility divestiture resulted in a decrease in net revenue of 2% and an increase in Segment EBITDA of 1%, in the six months ended December 31, 2020 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019.

Net revenue in our Oral and Specialty Delivery segment increased by $46.8 million, or 17%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Net revenue increased 1%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. Excluding the effect of acquisitions, increased demand for the segment’s orally delivered Zydis commercial products and early-phase development programs were partially offset by decreased demand for other non-Zydis orally delivered commercial products.

Oral and Specialty Delivery’s Segment EBITDA increased by $2.8 million, or 5%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. Segment EBITDA decreased 23% compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of acquisitions. The decrease from the prior-year period was primarily driven by the voluntary recall in the U.S of a recently launched product in our respiratory and ophthalmic platform, inclusive of one-

time charges totaling $14 million, associated with the recall. Increased demand for the segment’s orally delivered Zydis commercial products and favorable manufacturing efficiencies within our respiratory and ophthalmic specialty platform partially offset the charges associated with this product recall.

Clinical Supply Services’ net revenue increased by $10.2 million, or 6%, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, excluding the impact of foreign exchange. The increase was driven by strong demand in our manufacturing and packaging business across all regions and an increase in demand for our storage and distribution offerings in North America.

Clinical Supply Services’ Segment EBITDA increased by $3.1 million, or 7%, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2019, primarily due to strong global demand in our manufacturing and packaging and storage and distribution businesses, partially offset by an unfavorable sales mix in Europe.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash flows generated from operations and occasional capital market activities. The principal uses of cash are to fund operating and capital expenditures, business or asset acquisitions, interest payments on debt, the payment of deferred purchase consideration from the Catalent Indiana, LLC acquisition, the payment of the quarterly dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock, and any mandatory or discretionary principal payment on our debt. At the current stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock outstanding as of December 31, 2020, the aggregate amount of each regular quarterly dividend, if paid in cash, is $4.8 million. As of December 31, 2020, the Operating Company had available a $550 million revolving credit facility that matures in May 2024, the capacity of which was reduced by $6.7 million in letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2020. The revolving credit facility includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit and for short-term borrowings, referred to as swing-line borrowings.

We believe that our cash on hand, cash from operations, and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months, including our quarterly regular dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock, if paid in cash, as well as the amounts expected to become due with respect to our pending capital projects. We have no significant maturity under any of our bank or note debt until the U.S. dollar-denominated 4.875% senior notes due 2026 (the “USD 2026 Notes”) maturing in January 2026. As of December 31, 2020, we had only one remaining payment of $50.0 million, due in October 2021, on the deferred purchase consideration for the acquisition of Catalent Indiana, LLC.

Table of Contents

Operating Activities

For the six months ended December 31, 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $223.7 million, compared to $145.9 million for the corresponding prior-year period. Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2020 increased primarily due to an increase in operating earnings, which increased from $123.4 million in the corresponding prior-year period to $208.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and a favorable impact from the timing of collection of trade receivables, which was partially offset by an unfavorable impact from inventory.

Investing Activities

For the six months ended December 31, 2020, cash used in investing activities was $354.4 million, compared to $199.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The higher level of cash use was primarily driven by an increase in cash used in the acquisition of property, plant, and equipment, which totaled $338.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2020 compared to $152.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in acquisition of property, plant and equipment was partially offset by a decrease in cash used for business acquisition activities.

Financing Activities

For the six months ended December 31, 2020, cash used in financing activities was $7.2 million, compared to cash used in financing activities of $101.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is primarily driven by the exercise of an over-allotment option on 1.2 million additional shares by the underwriter on the June 25, 2020 public offering of our Common Stock, resulting in net proceeds of $81.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2020.

Guarantees and Security

The Senior Notes

All obligations under Operating Company's Euro 2028 Notes, USD 2026 Notes, and U.S. dollar-denominated 5.00% senior notes due 2027 (collectively, the "Senior Notes") are general, unsecured, and subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the guarantors to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Each of the Senior Notes is separately guaranteed by all of Operating Company's wholly owned U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the senior secured credit facilities. None of the Senior Notes is guaranteed by either PTS Intermediate Holdings LLC or Catalent, Inc.

Debt Covenants

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The credit agreement governing Operating Company’s senior secured credit facilities (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, Operating Company’s (and Operating Company’s restricted subsidiaries’) ability to incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; create liens on assets; engage in mergers and consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends and distributions or repurchase capital stock; repay subordinated indebtedness; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; make investments, loans, or advances; make certain acquisitions; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; amend material agreements governing Operating Company’s subordinated indebtedness; and change Operating Company’s lines of business.

The Credit Agreement also contains change-of-control provisions and certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default. The revolving credit facility requires compliance with a net leverage covenant when there is a 30% or more draw outstanding at a period end. As of December 31, 2020, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement permits Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur certain additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness. None of Operating Company's non-U.S. subsidiaries or its Puerto Rico subsidiary is a guarantor of the loans.

Under the Credit Agreement, Operating Company's ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments, and paying certain dividends is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (which is defined as “Consolidated EBITDA” in the Credit Agreement). Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definitions in the Credit Agreement, is not defined under U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations.

As market conditions warrant, we and our affiliates may from time to time seek to purchase our outstanding debt in privately negotiated or open-market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitation contained in

Table of Contents

the Credit Agreement, any purchase made by us may be funded by the use of cash on hand or the incurrence of new secured or unsecured debt. The amounts involved in any such purchase transaction, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Any such purchase may be with respect to a substantial amount of a particular class or series of debt, with the attendant reduction in the trading liquidity of such class or series. In addition, any such purchase made at prices below the “adjusted issue price” (as defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) may result in taxable cancellation of indebtedness income to us, which amounts may be material, or in related adverse tax consequences to us.

The Senior Notes

The several indentures governing each series of the Senior Notes (collectively, the “Indentures”) contain certain covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Operating Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur or guarantee more debt or issue certain preferred shares; pay dividends on, repurchase, or make distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; make certain investments; sell certain assets; create liens; consolidate, merge, sell; or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; enter into certain transactions with their affiliates, and designate their subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations, and qualifications as set forth in the Indentures. The Indentures also contain customary events of default, including, but not limited to, nonpayment, breach of covenants, and payment or acceleration defaults in certain other indebtedness of Operating Company or certain of its subsidiaries. Upon an event of default, either the holders of at least 30% in principal amount of each of the then-outstanding series of Senior Notes, or the applicable Trustee under the Indentures, may declare the applicable Senior Notes immediately due and payable; or in certain circumstances, the applicable Senior Notes will become automatically immediately due and payable. As of December 31, 2020, Operating Company was in compliance with all material covenants under the Indentures.

Geographic Allocation of Cash

As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, our non-U.S. subsidiaries held cash and cash equivalents of $266.9 million and $228.0 million, respectively, out of the total consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $833.1 million and $953.2 million, respectively. These balances are dispersed across many locations around the world.

Interest Rate Risk Management

A portion of the debt used to finance our operations is exposed to interest-rate fluctuations. We may use various hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create an appropriate mix of fixed- and floating-rate assets and liabilities. In April 2020, we entered into an interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. as a hedge against the economic effect of a portion of the variable-interest obligation associated with our U.S dollar-denominated term loans under our senior secured credit facilities, so that the interest payable on that portion of the debt becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest-rate changes on future interest expense. The applicable rate for the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan is LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus 2.25%; however, as a result of entering into the interest-rate swap agreement, the floating portion of the applicable rate on $500.0 million of the term loan is now effectively fixed at 1.26% for a total fixed rate of 3.51%.

Currency Risk Management

We are exposed to fluctuations in the euro-U.S. dollar exchange rate on our investments in our foreign operations in Europe. While we do not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, we have mitigated the exposure of our investments in our European operations by denominating a portion of our debt in euros. At December 31, 2020, we had $993.1 million of euro-denominated debt outstanding that qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. Refer to Note 10 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion of net investment hedge activity in the period.

From time to time, we may use forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure to the variability of cash flows primarily related to the foreign exchange rate changes of future foreign currency transaction costs. In addition, we may use such contracts to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities. Currently, we do not use any forward foreign currency exchange contracts. We expect to continue to evaluate hedging opportunities for foreign currency in the future.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations as a result of certain market risks. These market risks primarily relate to changes in interest rates associated with our long-term debt obligations and foreign exchange rate changes.

Interest Rate Risk

We have historically used interest-rate swaps to manage the economic effect of variable-rate interest obligations associated with our floating-rate term loans so that the interest payable on the term loans effectively becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest-rate changes on our future interest expense.

In April 2020, we entered into an interest-rate swap agreement with Bank of America N.A. as a hedge against the economic effect of a portion of the variable-interest obligation associated with our U.S dollar-denominated term loans under our senior secured credit facilities, so that the interest payable on that portion of the debt becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest-rate changes on future interest expense. The applicable rate for the U.S. dollar-denominated term loan is LIBOR (subject to a floor of 1.00%) plus 2.25%; however, as a result of entering into the interest-rate swap agreement, the floating portion of the applicable rate on $500.0 million of the term loan is now effectively fixed at 1.26%, for a total fixed rate of 3.51%.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

By the nature of our global operations, we are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations resulting from foreign exchange rate variation. These exposures are transactional and translational in nature. Since we manufacture and sell our products throughout the world, our foreign-currency risk is diversified. Principal drivers of this diversified foreign-exchange exposure include the European euro, British pound, Argentinean peso, and Brazilian real. Our transactional exposure arises from the purchase and sale of goods and services in currencies other than the functional currency of our operational units. We also have exposure related to the translation of financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, our functional currency. The financial statements of our operations outside the U.S. are measured using the local currency as the functional currency, except in Argentina. Adjustments to translate the assets and liabilities of these foreign operations in U.S. dollars are accumulated as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) utilizing period-end exchange rates. Foreign-currency transaction gains and losses calculated by utilizing weighted average exchange rates for the period are included in the statements of operations in other (income) expense, net. Such foreign-currency transaction gains and losses include inter-company loans denominated in non-U.S. dollar currencies.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any control or procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended December 31, 2020, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of any of which could be significant. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against any such litigation and do not currently believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated, and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.

From time to time, we receive subpoenas or requests for information relating to the business practices and activities of customers or suppliers from various governmental agencies or private parties, including from state attorneys general, the U.S. Department of Justice, and private parties engaged in patent infringement, antitrust, tort, and other litigation. We generally respond to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred. We expect to incur costs in future periods in connection with future requests.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Fiscal 2020 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or future results. The risks described in such report are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Other than what was disclosed in the Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements, there has been no material change to the risk factors disclosed in our Fiscal 2020 10-K.
