Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(all tabular amounts in thousands unless otherwise noted)

Note 1 —Basis of presentation

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

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

In accordance with applicable accounting standards and as permitted by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in our annual consolidated financial statements. Therefore, our quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Note 2 —Recently issued accounting standards

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") issued new guidance designed to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant expenses per segment. The guidance is effective for all fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The new standard must be adopted on a retrospective basis and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued new guidance designed to improve income tax disclosure requirements, primarily through increased disaggregation disclosures within the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as enhanced disclosures on income taxes paid. The guidance is effective for all fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The new standard can be adopted on a prospective basis with an option for it to be adopted retrospectively and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2024, the SEC adopted final rules that require registrants to include certain climate-related disclosures in registration statements and annual reports. The required disclosures include information about a registrant's climate-related risks that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on its business, results of operations or financial condition. The required information about climate-related risks will also include disclosure of a registrant's greenhouse gas emissions and will require registrants to present certain climate-related financial disclosures in their audited financial statements. The rules were to be effective for all fiscal years beginning in 2025. However, following the adoption of the rules, challenges to the rules were brought in six federal appellate courts. These challenges were consolidated for review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. Additional cases have been filed since the consolidation order. On April 4, 2024, the SEC announced that it had stayed the rules pending the completion of judicial review of the consolidated Eighth Circuit petitions. We plan to monitor the status of these rules, and, as appropriate, to evaluate the rules to determine their impact on our consolidated financial statements.

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

Note 3 —Net revenues

We primarily generate revenue from the sale of medical devices including single use disposable devices and, to a lesser extent, reusable devices, instruments and capital equipment. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customer are satisfied; this occurs upon the transfer of control of the products. Generally, transfer of control to the customer occurs at the point in time when our products are shipped from the manufacturing or distribution facility. For our Original Equipment and Development Services ("OEM") segment, most revenue is recognized over time because the OEM segment generates revenue from the sale of custom products that have no alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment to the extent that performance has been completed. We market and sell products through our direct sales force and distributors to customers within the following end markets: (1) hospitals and healthcare providers; (2) other medical device manufacturers; and (3) home care providers, which constituted 86%,12% and 2% of consolidated net revenues, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods. With respect to the custom products sold in the OEM segment, revenue is measured using the units produced output method. Payment is generally due 30 days from the date of invoice.

The following table disaggregates revenue by global product category for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023.

(1) Includes revenues generated from sales of our respiratory and urology products (other than interventional urology products) and sales pursuant to the manufacturing and supply transition agreement related to our Respiratory business divestiture. In 2024, amounts reflect the impact from increases in our reserves related to the Italian payback measure pertaining to prior years discussed in Note 13.

(2) The product categories listed above are presented on a global basis, while each of our reportable segments other than the OEM reportable segment are defined based on the geographic location of its operations; the OEM reportable segment operates globally. Each of the geographically based reportable segments includes net revenues from each of the non-OEM product categories listed above.

Note 4 —Acquisition

2023 acquisition

In the fourth quarter of 2023, we completed the acquisition of Palette Life Sciences AB (“Palette”), a privately held medical device company that sells a portfolio of hyaluronic acid gel-based products primarily utilized in the treatment of urology diseases including a rectal spacing product used in connection with radiation therapy treatment of prostate cancer. Under the terms of the agreement, we acquired Palette for an initial cash payment of $594.9 million, with the potential to maketwo milestone payments up to $50 million in the aggregate if certain commercial milestones are met. The milestone payments are based on net sales growth over the two-year period beginning January 1, 2024.

We are continuing to evaluate the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities assumed in connection with the acquisition. Additionally, the purchase accounting for this acquisition remains incomplete with respect to the consideration transferred as we have not reached an agreement on the closing statement adjustments with the seller. Any adjustments to the consideration transferred during the measurement period will be recognized in the reporting period in which they are settled.

Note 5 —Restructuring and impairment charges

2024 Footprint realignment plan

During the second quarter of 2024, we initiated the "2024 Footprint realignment plan," encompassing several strategic restructuring initiatives. These initiatives primarily include the relocation of select manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations, the optimization of specific product portfolios through targeted rationalization efforts, the relocation of certain integral product development and manufacturing support functions, the optimization of certain supply chain activities and related workforce reductions. The actions under the 2024 Footprint realignment plan are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2025.

The following table provides a summary of our estimates of restructuring and restructuring related charges by major type of expense associated with the 2024 Footprint realignment plan:

Total estimated amount expected to be incurred
Program expense estimates:
Restructuring charges (1)$16 million to $20 million
Restructuring related charges (2)$21 million to $26 million
Total restructuring and restructuring related charges$37 million to $46 million

(1)Substantially all of the charges consist of employee termination benefit costs.

(2)Consists of pre-tax charges related to accelerated depreciation and other costs directly related to the plan, primarily project management costs and costs to relocate manufacturing operations and support functions to the new locations. Substantially all of the charges are expected to be recognized within costs of goods sold.

We expect the restructuring and restructuring related charges will result in future cash outlays ranging from $31 million to $38 million, with the majority anticipated to occur between 2025 and 2026. Furthermore, we expect to incur $13 million to $16 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan, with the bulk of these expenses expected to occur during 2024 and 2025.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we incurred $1.1 million under the 2024 Footprint realignment plan in pre-tax restructuring related charges, substantially all of which was recognized in cost of goods sold.

2023 Footprint realignment plan

In September 2023, we initiated a restructuring plan primarily involving the relocation of certain manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations, the outsourcing of certain manufacturing processes and related workforce reductions (the "2023 Footprint realignment plan"). These actions are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2027. The following table provides a summary of our estimates of restructuring and restructuring related charges by major type of expense associated with the 2023 Footprint realignment plan:

Total estimated amount expected to be incurred
Program expense estimates:
Restructuring charges (1)$4 million to $6 million
Restructuring related charges (2)$7 million to $9 million
Total restructuring and restructuring related charges$11 million to $15 million

(1) Substantially all of the charges consist of employee termination benefit costs.

(2) Restructuring related charges represent costs that are directly related to the 2023 Footprint realignment plan and principally constitute costs to transfer manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations and project management costs. Substantially all of these charges are expected to be recognized within cost of goods sold.

Additionally, we expect to incur $2 million to $3 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, we incurred $0.6 million and $1.1 million under the 2023 Footprint realignment plan in pre-tax restructuring related charges, all of which were recognized in cost of goods sold. As of June 30, 2024, we have incurred aggregate restructuring charges in connection with the 2023 Footprint realignment plan of $2.2 million. In addition, as of June 30, 2024, we have incurred aggregate restructuring related charges of $1.2 million with respect to the 2023 Footprint realignment plan, consisting of certain costs that principally resulted from the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations.

As of June 30, 2024, we had a restructuring reserve of $2.1 million related to this plan, all of which related to termination benefits.

2023 Restructuring plan

In December 2023, we initiated a restructuring plan, which primarily involved the integration of Palette into Teleflex and workforce reductions designed to improve operating performance across the organization by creating efficiencies that align with evolving market demands and our strategy to enhance long-term value creation (the “2023 restructuring plan”). The plan is substantially complete and as a result, we expect future restructuring expenses associated with the plan to be immaterial.

Restructuring and impairment charges recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023 consisted of the following:

Impairment charge

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.1 million related to a portion of our operating lease assets stemming from our cessation of occupancy of a specific facility.

Note 6 —Inventories

Inventories as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consisted of the following:

Note 7 —Goodwill and other intangible assets

The following table provides information relating to changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable operating segment for the six months ended June 30, 2024:

AmericasEMEAAsiaOEMTotal
December 31, 2023$2,068,072$487,744$246,229$112,010$2,914,055

June 30, 2024$2,065,900$476,887$237,832$112,010$2,892,629

Our goodwill impairment testing is performed annually during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year in addition to periods where changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our goodwill assets may not be recoverable. No impairment charges were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. We did identify indicators of a potential impairment as of June 30, 2024 related to our Interventional Urology North America reporting unit, included within our Americas operating segment. The indicators of a potential impairment primarily arose from lower than anticipated sales results from our UroLift product line (“UroLift”), primarily driven by the adverse impact of persistent end-market challenges within the U.S. office site of service. We performed a quantitative impairment test of the reporting unit using both the income and the market approaches, which determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value. The more significant judgments and assumptions in determining the fair value included the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, the expected long-term growth rates and the discount rate used to estimate the present value of the future cash flows. Our assessment indicates that the Interventional Urology North America reporting unit is susceptible to future impairment charges if future revenue is lower than our current expectations, in particular with respect to the adverse impacts stemming from end market conditions related to UroLift, as well as from continuing negative impacts from macroeconomic factors, including increased inflation and higher interest rates. The carrying value of goodwill allocated to the Interventional Urology North America reporting unit as of June 30, 2024 was $645.9 million.

The gross carrying amount of, and accumulated amortization relating to, intangible assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:

Note 8 —Financial instruments

Foreign currency forward contracts

We use derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used to manage foreign currency transaction exposure. Foreign currency forward contracts not designated as hedges for accounting purposes are used to manage exposure related to near term foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. We enter into the non-designated foreign currency forward contracts for periods consistent with our currency translation exposures, which generally approximate one month. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we recognized a loss of $0.1 million and a gain of $3.5 million respectively, related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts. For the three and six months ended July 2, 2023, we recognized gains of $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts.

The total notional amount for all open foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $302.2 million and $234.1 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $173.4 million and $195.0 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of June 30, 2024 have durations of 12 months or less.

Cross-currency interest rate swaps

During 2019, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements with five different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate (the "2019 Cross-currency swaps"). Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we notionally exchanged $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.88% for €219.2 million at an annual interest rate of 2.46%. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges. On February 26, 2024, the agreements related to our 2019 Cross-currency swap with an original maturity date of March 4, 2024 were terminated resulting in $12.1 million in cash settlement proceeds.

On February 26, 2024, we executedtwo separate term cross-currency swap agreements set to expire on February 26, 2027 and February 28, 2029, respectively, to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. Each of the swap agreements had a notional principal amount of $250 million and were designated as a net investment hedge. On April 25, 2024, the cross-currency agreements executed in February 2024 were terminated in response to changes in market conditions, resulting in $0.4 million in a cash settlement payment and we simultaneously executedtwo new separate term cross-currency swap agreements with the same expiration dates and notional values (together, the "2024 Cross-currency swap agreements"). The cross-currency swap agreements expiring in 2027 include five different financial institution counterparties and notionally exchanged $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.25% for €233.4 million at an annual interest rate of 2.44%. The cross-currency swap agreements expiring in 2029 include four different financial institution counterparties and notionally exchanged $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.25% for €233.4 million at an annual interest rate of 2.45%. Both of the 2024 Cross-currency swap agreements are designated as a net investment hedge.

During 2023, we executed cross-currency swap agreements withsix different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate, (the "2023 Cross-currency swaps"). Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $500 million at an annual interest rate of 4.63% for €474.7 million at an annual interest rate of 3.05%. The swap agreements are designated as net investment hedges and expire on October 4, 2025.

In 2023, we entered into a zero cost foreign exchange collar contract that aligns with the notional amount and expiration date of the 2023 Cross-currency swaps. We sold a put option with a lower strike price and bought a call option with a higher strike price to manage the foreign exchange risk related to the final settlement of the $500 million notional cross currency swaps. Upon the execution of the zero cost foreign exchange collar contract, we have de-designated the 2023 Cross-currency swaps and re-designated the combined $500 million notional cross currency swaps and zero cost collar into a new hedging instrument. At redesignation, the existing $500 million notional cross-currency swaps were off-market due to changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The off-market value due to interest rates will be amortized ratably into earnings through October 2025 and the off-market value due to foreign exchange rates will remain in accumulated other comprehensive income until the underlying net investment is sold. The combined cross-currency swaps and zero cost collar have been designated as a net investment hedge for accounting purposes.

The swap agreements described above require an exchange of the notional amounts upon expiration or earlier termination of the agreements. We and the counterparties have agreed to effect the exchange through a net settlement.

The cross-currency swaps are marked to market at each reporting date and any changes in fair value are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI"). The following table summarizes the foreign exchange gains and losses recognized within AOCI and the interest benefit recognized within interest expense related to cross currency swap for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023:

Trade receivables

The allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $9.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively. The current portion of the allowance for credit losses, which was $5.4 million and $5.5 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, was recognized as a reduction of accounts receivable, net.

Valuation Techniques

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

Our financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements. We use foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap agreements to manage foreign currency transaction exposure as well as exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. We measure the fair value of the foreign currency forwards and cross-currency swap agreements by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Our financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to our acquisitions.

Contingent consideration

Contingent consideration liabilities, which primarily consist of payment obligations that are contingent upon the achievement of revenue-based goals, but also can be based on other milestones such as regulatory approvals, are remeasured to fair value each reporting period using assumptions including revenue growth rates (based on internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans), revenue volatility, discount rates, probability of payment and projected payment dates.

We determine the fair value of certain contingent consideration liabilities using a Monte Carlo simulation (which involves a simulation of future revenues during the earn-out period using management's best estimates) or discounted cash flow analysis. Increases in projected revenues, estimated cash flows and probabilities of payment may result in significantly higher fair value measurements; decreases in these items may have the opposite effect. Increases in the discount rates in periods prior to payment may result in significantly lower fair value measurements and decreases in the discount rates may have the opposite effect.

The table below provides additional information regarding the valuation technique and inputs used in determining the fair value of our significant contingent consideration liabilities.

Note 10 —Shareholders' equity

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

Three Months EndedSix Months Ended

Dilutive effect of share-based awards210348248342
Diluted47,36147,32947,37847,307

The weighted average number of shares that were antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of earnings per share were 0.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 0.7 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023.

On July 30, 2024, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program for up to $500 million of our common stock. The timing, price and actual number of shares of common stock that may be repurchased under the share repurchase authorization will depend on a variety of factors including price, market conditions and corporate and regulatory requirements. The repurchases may occur in open market transactions, transactions structured through investment banking institutions, in privately negotiated transactions, by direct purchases of common stock or a combination of the foregoing, and the timing and amount of stock repurchased will depend on market and business conditions, applicable legal and credit requirements and other corporate considerations. The authorization of the repurchase program does not constitute a binding obligation to acquire any specific amount of common stock, and the repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. On August 2, 2024, we entered into an accelerated share repurchase agreement for $200 million of our common stock.

Effective income tax rate (1)17.8%12.2%(33.8)%15.9%

(1) The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 represent income tax expenses. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 represents an income tax benefit.

The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were 17.8% and (33.8)%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2024 reflects a tax benefit associated with a pension charge recognized in connection with the termination of the TRIP. The effective income tax rates for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 reflect the tax impact of a non-taxable contingent consideration adjustment recognized in connection with a decrease in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities. Additionally, the effective tax rates for the three and six months ended July 2, 2023 reflect a net-tax benefit related to share-based compensation. The effective income tax rates for all periods reflect a tax benefit from research and development tax credits.

Note 12 —Pension and other postretirement benefits

We have a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. The defined benefit pension plans are noncontributory. The benefits under these plans are based primarily on years of service and employees’ pay near retirement. Our funding policy for U.S. plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws and regulations. Obligations under non-U.S. plans are systematically provided for by depositing funds with trustees or by book reserves. As of March 31, 2024, no further benefits are being accrued under the U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the other postretirement benefit plans, other than certain postretirement benefit plans covering employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

In 2023, we began the execution of a plan to terminate the Teleflex Incorporated Retirement Income Plan (the “TRIP”), a U.S. defined benefit pension plan. The TRIP is subject to Title IV of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and, therefore, must be terminated in accordance with the requirements of ERISA and the process governed by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (the “PBGC”). The termination date of the TRIP was August 1, 2023, which is the date upon which the timing of the requirements for the formal termination process is based. On September 8, 2023, we filed the required notice regarding the TRIP termination with the PBGC. The termination process requires that all TRIP benefits be distributed to participants, beneficiaries and alternate payees or transferred to a group annuity contract or the PBGC. In December of 2023, we made payments to eligible participants, beneficiaries and alternate payees who elected the one-time lump sum distribution option offered in connection with the TRIP termination, resulting in the recognition of a pre-tax settlement charge of $45.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2023.

During the first quarter of 2024, we purchased a group annuity contract, using TRIP assets, which resulted in the recognition of a pre-tax settlement charge of $138.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The participants, beneficiaries, and alternate payees whose benefits were transferred to the group annuity contract will each receive from such group annuity contract the full value of their benefit that accrued under the TRIP. The assets in the Teleflex Retirement Income Plan Trust exceed the estimated liability for amounts to be transferred to the PBGC for missing participants and beneficiaries (“surplus plan assets”). As of June 30, 2024, the surplus plan assets were $37.7 million, which is included in Other Assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In connection with the termination of the TRIP, we transferred $34.2 million of the surplus assets in July 2024 to a suspense account within the Teleflex 401(k) Savings Plan, a qualified defined contribution plan. We plan to use the transferred surplus plan assets to fund employer contributions to participants in the Teleflex 401(k) Savings Plan over the next several years.

The following table provides information regarding the components of the net benefit (income) expense of the pension and postretirement benefit plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and July 2, 2023:

Note 13 —Commitments and contingent liabilities

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

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. The nature of these activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At June 30, 2024, we have recorded $3.0 million and $1.8 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of June 30, 2024. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 10-15 years.

Legal matters: We are a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment, environmental and other matters. As of June 30, 2024, we have recorded accrued liabilities of $0.4 million in connection with such contingencies, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters.

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

Other: In 2015, the Italian parliament enacted legislation that, among other things, imposed a “payback” measure on medical device companies that supply goods and services to the Italian National Healthcare System. Under the measure, companies are required to make payments to the Italian government if medical device expenditures in a given year exceed regional expenditure ceilings established for that year. The payment amounts are calculated based on the amount by which the regional ceilings for the given year were exceeded. In response to decrees issued by the Italian Ministry of Health, the various Italian regions issued invoices to medical device companies, including Teleflex, under the payback measure in the fourth quarter of 2022 seeking payment with respect to excess expenditures for the years 2015 through 2018. Following the issuance of the invoices, we and numerous other medical device companies filed appeals with the Italian administrative courts challenging the enforceability of the payback measure, primarily on the basis that the law was unconstitutional. The Italian administrative courts referred the question regarding the constitutionality of the law to the Italian Constitutional Court, which in July 2024, issued a ruling upholding the law as constitutional. As a consequence of this ruling, we recognized a $15.8 million increase to our reserve (and corresponding reduction to revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024), of which $13.8 million pertained to prior years. As a result, our reserve as of June 30, 2024 was $32.0 million. Following the ruling of the Italian Constitutional Court, the appeal before the Italian administrative court will proceed with respect to the remaining legal arguments asserted by the appellants with regard to the enforceability of the payback law.

On April 4, 2023, one of our Mexican subsidiaries received a notification from the Mexican Federal Tax Administration Service (“SAT”) setting forth its preliminary findings with respect to a foreign trade operations audit carried out by SAT for the period from July 1, 2017 to June 6, 2019. The preliminary findings stated that our Mexican subsidiary did not evidence the export of goods temporarily imported under Mexico’s Manufacturing, Maquila and Export Services Industries Program (“IMMEX Program”), therefore triggering the potential obligation for payment of import duties, value added tax, customs processing fees and other fines and penalties. In response to the notification, our Mexican subsidiary requested that the matter be referred to the Procuraduría de la Defensa del Contribuyente, or “PRODECON,” (local tax ombudsperson) to help facilitate the process. In June 2023, we provided SAT with the appropriate documentation evidencing the export of the goods in accordance with the requirements of the IMMEX Program. During the second quarter of 2024, SAT concluded its examination of the export documentation resulting in no material assessment and the matter has been closed.

As part of our acquisition of Palette, we identified certain foreign tax liabilities that had not been properly recognized and paid by Palette prior to our acquisition. As part of our acquisition accounting, we have established a liability of $3.5 million, representing our best estimate of the outstanding tax liabilities including interest as of June 30, 2024. In February 2024, we requested the relevant foreign tax authority to re-assess Palette’s previously filed tax returns for the related periods. If the tax authority disagrees with the basis for our request for reassessment of the previously filed returns and we are unsuccessful in defending our position, we may be required to pay an amount in excess of our current established liability, which could be material.

Tax audits and examinations: We are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of June 30, 2024, the most significant tax examination in process was in Germany. We may establish reserves with respect to our uncertain tax positions, after we adjust the reserves to address developments with respect to our uncertain tax positions, including developments in these tax examinations. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to our recorded tax liabilities, which could impact our financial results.
