Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains “forward-looking statements”. Such forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements about the transaction (in which, among other things, Viatris, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, has commenced the Offer to acquire all of the outstanding Shares and, following the consummation of the Offer, for such wholly-owned subsidiary of Viatris to be merged with and into Pacira), the expected timetable for completing the proposed transaction, the anticipated benefits and synergies of the proposed transaction, the ability to complete the transaction or to satisfy the various closing conditions, future opportunities for Viatris or Pacira and either of their products and any other statements regarding Viatris’ or Pacira’s future operations, strategic initiatives and priorities, restructuring activities, financial or operating results, capital allocation, dividend policy and payments, share repurchases, debt ratio and covenants, anticipated business levels, future earnings, planned activities, anticipated growth, market opportunities, strategies, imperatives, competitions, commitments, confidence in future results, efforts to create, enhance or otherwise unlock value, other expectations, plans, trends, outlooks, projections, prospects and targets for future periods, and any other statements that are not historical facts. Forward-looking statements may often be identified by the use of words such as “will”, “may”, “can”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “project”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “plan”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “potential”, “pipeline”, “intend”, “continue”, “target”, “seek” and variations of these words or comparable words.
Because forward-looking statements inherently involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, actual future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, and there can be no assurance that estimates, assumptions and expectations will prove to have been correct. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to: the ability of Viatris and Pacira to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; the ability of Viatris and Pacira to consummate the proposed transaction; the conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction (including, but not limited to, the Minimum Condition (as defined in the Merger Agreement)) not being satisfied or waived on the anticipated timeframe or at all; the regulatory approvals required for the proposed transaction not being obtained on the terms expected or on the anticipated schedule or at all; the possibility that competing offers may be made; the possibility that Viatris may be unable to achieve the intended or expected benefits, synergies and operating efficiencies in connection with the proposed transaction within the expected timeframe or at all or to successfully integrate Viatris and Pacira; Viatris’ or Pacira’s failure to achieve expected or targeted future financial and operating performance and results; the possibility that Viatris or Pacira may not realize the intended benefits of, or achieve the intended goals or outlooks with respect to, its strategic initiatives and priorities; actions and decisions of healthcare and pharmaceutical regulators; changes in relevant laws, regulations and policies and/or the application or implementation thereof, including but not limited to tax, healthcare and pharmaceutical laws, regulations and policies globally; the ability to attract, motivate and retain key personnel; Viatris’ or Pacira’s liquidity, capital resources and ability to successfully complete capital projections and obtain financing; Viatris’ or Pacira’s plans with respect to the repayment of indebtedness; any regulatory, legal or other impediments to Viatris’ or Pacira’s ability to bring new products to market; success of clinical trials and Viatris’ or Pacira’s (or, with respect to each, its partners’) ability to execute on new product opportunities and develop, manufacture and commercialize products; any changes in or difficulties with Viatris’ or Pacira’s manufacturing facilities, including with respect to short- or long-term shutdowns, inspections, remediation and restructuring activities, product labeling or regulatory compliance, supply chain continuity, inventory management, or the ability to meet anticipated demand; the scope, timing and outcome of any ongoing legal proceedings, including government inquiries or investigations, and the impact of any such proceedings on Viatris or Pacira; any significant breach of data security or data privacy or disruptions to Viatris’ or Pacira’s information technology systems; risks associated with having significant operations globally; the strength and ability to protect Viatris’ or Pacira’s intellectual property and patent terms and preserve their respective intellectual property rights; changes in third-party relationships; the effect of any changes in Viatris’ or Pacira’s (or, with respect to each, its partners’) customer and supplier relationships and customer purchasing patterns, including customer loss and business disruption being greater than expected following the proposed transaction; the impacts of competition, including decreases in sales or revenues as a result of the loss of market exclusivity for certain products; changes in the economic and financial conditions of Viatris or Pacira (or, with respect to each, its partners); uncertainties regarding future demand, pricing and reimbursement for Viatris’ or Pacira’s products; uncertainties and matters beyond the control of management, including but not limited to general political and economic conditions, wars or other conflicts, potential for adverse impacts from future tariffs and trade restrictions, inflation rates, interest rates and global exchange rates; and inherent uncertainties involved in the estimates and judgments used in the preparation of financial statements, and the providing of estimates of financial measures, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and related standards or on an adjusted basis.
