NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(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, 2020.
Note 2 — Recently issued accounting standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance that simplifies various aspects of accounting for income taxes including those related to the step-up in the tax basis of goodwill, intraperiod tax allocations and the interim period effects of changes in tax laws or rates. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The modifications under the new guidance were applied on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the condensed 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, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Each of the geographically based reportable segments include net revenues from each of the non-OEM product categories listed above.
Note 4 — Acquisitions and divestitures
Acquisitions
On February 18, 2020, we acquired IWG High Performance Conductors, Inc. ("HPC"), a privately-held original equipment manufacturer of minimally invasive medical products and high performance conductors. The acquisition complements our OEM product portfolio.
On December 28, 2020, we acquired Z-Medica, LLC ("Z-Medica"), a privately-held medical device company that manufactures and sells hemostatic (hemorrhage control) products, marketed under the QuikClot, Combat Gauze and QuickClot Control+ brand names, to complement our anesthesia product portfolio. The acquisition included an initial cash purchase price of $500.0 million, with the potential to make an additional payment up to $25 million upon the achievement of certain commercial milestones.
Divestiture
On May 15, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain product lines within our global respiratory product portfolio (the "Divested respiratory business") to Medline Industries, Inc. (“Medline”) for consideration of $286.0 million, reduced by $12 million in working capital not transferring to Medline, which is subject to customary post close adjustments (the "Respiratory business divestiture"). In connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we also entered into several ancillary agreements with Medline to help facilitate the transfer of the business, which provide for transition support, quality, supply and manufacturing services, including a manufacturing and supply transition agreement (the "MSTA").
On June 28, 2021, the first day of the third quarter of 2021, we completed the initial phase of the Respiratory business divestiture, pursuant to which we received cash proceeds of $259 million. We attributed $33.8 million of the proceeds to our performance obligations pursuant to the MSTA. The resulting liability was measured as the excess of the estimated fair value of the services to be performed over the estimated proceeds we expect to receive over the MSTA term. It was recorded within Other current liabilities and Other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and the related proceeds will be recognized in net revenues as the services are performed.
The second phase of the Respiratory business divestiture will occur once we transfer certain additional manufacturing assets to Medline. Our receipt of $15.0 million in additional cash proceeds is contingent upon the transfer of these manufacturing assets and is expected to occur prior to the end of 2023. We plan to recognize the contingent consideration, and any gain on sale resulting from the second phase of the divestiture, when it becomes realizable.

Note 5 — Restructuring and impairment charges
Respiratory divestiture plan
During the second quarter of 2021, in connection with the Respiratory business divestiture described in Note 4, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to separate the manufacturing operations to be transferred to Medline from those that will remain with Teleflex, which includes related workforce reductions (the “Respiratory divestiture plan”). The plan includes expanding certain of our existing locations to accommodate the transfer of capacity from the sites being transferred to Medline and replicating the manufacturing processes at alternate existing locations. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2023. The following table provides a summary of our cost estimates by major type of expense associated with the Respiratory divestiture plan:
| Total estimated amount expected to be incurred | |||||
| Program expense estimates: | (Dollars in millions) | ||||
Restructuring charges (1) | $ | ||||
Restructuring related charges (2) | $ | ||||
| Total restructuring and restructuring related charges | $ | ||||
(1)Substantially all of the charges consist of employee termination benefit costs.
(2)Consist of charges that are directly related to the Respiratory divestiture plan and principally constitute costs to transfer manufacturing operations to other locations and project management costs. Substantially all of the charges are expected to be recognized within costs of goods sold.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)
(Unaudited)
We expect substantially all of the restructuring and restructuring related charges will result in future cash outlays, the majority of which will be made in 2022 and 2023. Additionally, we expect to incur $22 million to $28 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan, which are expected to be incurred mostly in 2022 and 2023. As of September 26, 2021, we had a restructuring reserve of $2.6 million related to this plan, all of which related to termination benefits.
2021 Restructuring plan
During the first quarter of 2021, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to streamline various business functions across our segments. We estimate that we will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $7 million to $9 million, consisting primarily of termination benefits. In addition, we expect to incur $3 million to $4 million in restructuring related charges, most of which are expected to be recognized in cost of goods sold. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2021. As of September 26, 2021, we had a restructuring reserve of $4.1 million related to this plan, all of which related to termination benefits.
Footprint realignment plans
We have ongoing restructuring programs related to the relocation of manufacturing operations to existing lower-cost locations and related workforce reductions (referred to as the 2019, 2018 and 2014 Footprint realignment plans). The following tables provide a summary of our cost estimates and other information associated with these ongoing Footprint realignment plans:

Redemption of 4.875 % Senior Notes due 2026
On April 29, 2021, we issued a notice of redemption to holders of our outstanding $400 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875 % Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). Pursuant to the notice of redemption, the 2026 Notes were redeemed on June 1, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”) using borrowings under the revolving credit facility and cash on hand at a redemption price equal to 102.438 % of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $13.0 million as a result of the redemption of the 2026 Notes.
Repayment of revolving credit facility due 2024
During the third quarter of 2021, we repaid $259 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility using funds primarily consisting of proceeds we received from the initial close of the Respiratory business divestiture described in Note 4.
Note 9 — 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 nine months ended September 26, 2021 we recognized losses of $2.7 million and $5.2 million, respectively, related to non-designated foreign currency forward contracts. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2020 we recognized losses of $0.9 million and $0.1 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 September 26, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $148.4 million and $129.5 million, respectively. The total notional amount for all open non-designated foreign currency forward contracts as of September 26, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $174.4 million and $163.5 million, respectively. All open foreign currency forward contracts as of September 26, 2021 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. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $250 million at an annual interest rate of 4.875 % for €219.2 million at an annual interest rate of 2.4595 %. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on March 4, 2024.
During 2018, we entered into cross-currency swap agreements with six different financial institution counterparties to hedge against the effect of variability in the U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate. Under the terms of the cross-currency swap agreements, we have notionally exchanged $500 million at an annual interest rate of 4.625 % for €433.9 million at an annual interest rate of 1.942 %. The swap agreements are designed as net investment hedges and expire on October 4, 2023.
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 nine months ended September 26, 2021 and September 27, 2020:

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 forwards and cross-currency interest rate swaps 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 swaps 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 (inputs that are not observable in the market) are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to our acquisitions, which are discussed immediately below.
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 estimated revenues (based on internal operational budgets and long-range strategic plans), discount rates, probability of payment and projected payment dates.

Note 11 — 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:

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. 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 September 26, 2021, we have recorded $1.6 million and $5.2 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 September 26, 2021. 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, product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of September 26, 2021, we have recorded accrued liabilities of $0.7 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.
As previously disclosed, in the first quarter of 2021, representatives of the selling shareholders from whom we acquired Essential Medical, Inc., filed suit on behalf of such shareholders in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware alleging, among other things, that we breached the merger agreement relating to the acquisition in connection with activities relating to the achievement of revenue-based milestone goals under the agreement. The suit sought money damages in the amount of $66.9 million, plus interest. During the second quarter of 2021, the parties entered into a settlement agreement, pursuant to which we paid $17.4 million to the selling shareholders, the selling shareholders released us from the claims asserted in the lawsuit as well as any remaining obligations to make milestone payments and any other obligations relating to the merger agreement, and the lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice. As a result, we have no further potential liability related to this matter.
In June 2020, we began producing documents and information in response to a Civil Investigative Demand (a “CID”) received in March 2020 by one of our subsidiaries, NeoTract, Inc. (“NeoTract”), from the U.S. Department of Justice through the United States Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Georgia (collectively, the “DOJ”). The CID relates to the DOJ’s investigation of a single NeoTract customer, requires the production of documents and information pertaining to communications with, and certain rebate programs offered to, that customer and pertains to communications and activities occurring both prior to our acquisition of NeoTract in October 2017 and thereafter. In July 2020, the DOJ advised us that it had opened an investigation under the civil False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §3729, with respect to NeoTract’s operations broadly in addition to the customer investigation.
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.
We maintain policies and procedures to promote compliance with the Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Acts and other applicable laws and regulations and intend to provide information sought by the government. We cannot at this time reasonably predict, however, the ultimate scope or outcome of this matter, including whether an investigation may raise other compliance issues of interest, including those beyond the scope described above or how any such issues might be resolved. We also cannot at this time reasonably estimate any potential liabilities or penalty, if any, that may arise from this matter, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Other: As previously disclosed, we have been subject to an investigation by Chinese authorities related to a technical error regarding our country of origin designation for certain products we imported into China. Had the error not been made, we would have been obligated to make increased tariff payments in late 2018 through the first quarter of 2021. As of March 28, 2021, we accrued the estimated increase in tariffs as well as related interest
18

(Unaudited)
expense for the periods in question. In addition to the tariffs and related interest, the Chinese authorities may impose a penalty for the unpaid tariffs.
As of September 26, 2021, after receiving requests for payment of the increased tariff amounts from the Chinese authorities, we remitted payment for the increased tariffs and we believe this to be the final action required to close the case. We no longer consider payment of penalties or interest to be probable, so we reversed the $3.0 million of previously accrued penalties as well as the accrued interest.
However, we have not received confirmation from the Chinese authorities that the case is closed and as a result, it remains possible that they may request payment for penalties and interest in the future. As we had indicated in our prior disclosure, we believe the range of penalties could be between 30 % and 200 % of the increased tariff amount or between $3 million and $20 million.
Tax audits and examinations: We are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of September 26, 2021, the most significant tax examinations in process were in Ireland and 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.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Teleflex Incorporated (“we,” “us,” “our" and “Teleflex”) is a global provider of medical technology products focused on enhancing clinical benefits, improving patient and provider safety and reducing total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure. We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies.
We evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to divest businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we may seek to optimize utilization of our facilities through restructuring initiatives designed to further improve our cost structure and enhance our competitive position. We also may continue to explore opportunities to expand the size of our business and improve operating margins through a combination of acquisitions and distributor to direct sales conversions, which generally involve our elimination of a distributor from the sales channel, either by acquiring the distributor or terminating the distributor relationship (in some instances, particularly in Asia, the conversions involve our acquisition or termination of a master distributor and the continued sale of our products through sub-distributors or through new distributors). Distributor to direct sales conversions are designed to facilitate improved product pricing and more direct access to the end users of our products within the sales channel.
Divestiture
On May 15, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell certain product lines within our global respiratory product portfolio (the "Divested respiratory business") to Medline Industries, Inc. (“Medline”) for consideration of $286.0 million, reduced by $12 million in working capital not transferring to Medline, which is subject to customary post close adjustments (the "Respiratory business divestiture"). In connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we also entered into several ancillary agreements with Medline to help facilitate the transfer of the business, which provide for transition support, quality, supply and manufacturing services, including a manufacturing and supply transition agreement (the "MSTA").
On June 28, 2021, the first day of the third quarter of 2021, we completed the initial phase of the Respiratory business divestiture, pursuant to which we received cash proceeds of $259 million. We attributed $33.8 million of the proceeds to our performance obligations pursuant to the MSTA. The resulting liability was measured as the excess of the estimated fair value of the services to be performed over the estimated proceeds we expect to receive over the MSTA term. It was recorded within Other current liabilities and Other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet and the related proceeds will be recognized in net revenues as the services are performed.
The second phase of the Respiratory business divestiture will occur once we transfer certain additional manufacturing assets to Medline. Our receipt of $15.0 million in additional cash proceeds is contingent upon the transfer of these manufacturing assets and is expected to occur prior to the end of 2023. We plan to recognize the contingent consideration, and any gain on sale resulting from the second phase of the divestiture, when it becomes realizable.
Net revenues attributable to our Divested respiratory business recognized prior to the Respiratory business divestiture are included within each of our geographic segments and were $60.7 million during the nine months ended September 26, 2021, and $29.8 million and $102.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2020, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 27, 2021, we recognized $27.9 million in net revenues attributed to services provided to Medline in accordance with the MSTA, which are presented within our Americas reporting segment.
COVID-19 pandemic
Beginning in the first half of 2020, the challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemic have adversely impacted our financial results, mainly as a result of a decline in demand for certain of our products, and have had an effect on various aspects of our global operations as well as our employees, contractors, suppliers, customers, freight transport providers and other business partners. Our business has been impacted by travel restrictions,
20
border closures and quarantines as they affect our various sites, including our 35 global manufacturing sites. We have also experienced inefficiencies in our manufacturing operations due to temporary or partial work stoppages as well as government-mandated and self-imposed restrictions placed on, and safety measures implemented at, our facilities globally. We continue to monitor the impacts to our operations. While we have not yet experienced significant disruptions in the global supply chain for our products that are in high demand, we have in some cases experienced lengthened delivery times, resulting in backorders for some of our products.
To date, our financial results were most severely impacted by the pandemic during the second quarter of 2020 due to reduced elective procedure volumes, partially offset by increased demand for products used in the treatment of patients with COVID-19. Since the second quarter of 2020, we have experienced varying levels of continuing recovery across our product lines and geographic segments from the challenges stemming from the pandemic. We believe that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have an impact on our business, particularly in the near term, and that such impact would be most significant if the virus becomes more prevalent, if vaccine immunization rates do not increase and if new strains of the virus continue to emerge. As a result of the dynamic nature of the crisis, we cannot accurately predict the extent or duration of the impacts of the pandemic.
Results of Operations
As used in this discussion, "new products" are products for which commercial sales have commenced within the past 36 months, and “existing products” are products for which commercial sales commenced more than 36 months ago. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired and/or divested businesses or assets (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions and/or divestitures within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition and/or divestiture. In addition to increases and decreases in the per unit selling prices of our products to our customers, our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases also reflects the impact on the pricing of our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor, either through acquisition or termination of the distributor, from the sales channel. All of the dollar amounts in the tables are presented in millions unless otherwise noted.
Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.

Net revenues for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $221.6 million, or 12.1%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $70.2 million increase in sales volume of existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year, net revenues of $53.5 million generated by acquired businesses, primarily Z-Medica, $49.9 million of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and, to a lesser extent, an increase in new product sales.

Gross margin for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased 300 basis points, or 5.7%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to benefits from cost improvement initiatives, favorable product mix, higher sales volumes partially stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year, price increases and favorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The increases in gross margin was partially offset by increases in logistics and distribution costs.

Gross margin for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased 360 basis points, or 7.0%, compared to the prior year period, primarily due to higher sales volumes largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year, benefits from cost improvement initiatives and favorable product mix.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $33.5 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to the benefit recognized in the prior year resulting from decreases in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities stemming from the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, higher selling and marketing expenses within certain of our product portfolios and operating expenses incurred to support the Z-Medica business. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was partially offset by a benefit from the reversal of a contingent liability related to tariffs imposed by Chinese authorities, which is described further in Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $121.8 million compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to the benefit recognized in the prior year resulting from decreases in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities stemming from the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, operating expenses incurred by acquired businesses, primarily Z-Medica, higher performance related employee-benefit expenses and, to a lesser extent, unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Restructuring and impairment charges
Respiratory divestiture plan
During the second quarter of 2021, in connection with the Respiratory business divestiture, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to separate the manufacturing operations that will be transferred to Medline from those that will remain with Teleflex, which includes related workforce reductions (the “Respiratory divestiture plan”). The plan includes expanding certain of our existing locations to accommodate the transfer of capacity from the sites that will be transferred to Medline and replicating the manufacturing processes at alternate existing locations. We expect this plan will be substantially completed by the end of 2023.
We estimate that we will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring and restructuring related charges in connection with the Respiratory divestiture plan of $24 million to $30 million, of which we expect $6 million to $7 million to be incurred in 2021 and the balance to be incurred in 2022 and 2023. We estimate that substantially all of these charges will result in cash outlays, the majority of which will be made in 2022 and 2023. Additionally, we expect to incur $22 million to $28 million in aggregate capital expenditures under the plan, which are expected to be incurred mostly in 2022 and 2023.
2021 Restructuring plan
During the first quarter of 2021, we committed to a restructuring plan designed to streamline various business functions across our segments. We estimate that we will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $7 million to $9 million, consisting primarily of termination benefits. In addition, we expect to incur $3 million to $4 million in
22
restructuring related charges, most of which are expected to be recognized in cost of sales. We expect this program will be substantially completed by the end of 2021.
We began realizing plan-related savings in 2021 and expect to achieve annual pre-tax savings of $13 million to $16 million once the plan is fully implemented.
Anticipated charges and pre-tax savings related to restructuring programs and other similar cost savings initiatives
In addition to the Respiratory divestiture plan, described in detail above, we have ongoing restructuring programs that include the consolidation of our manufacturing operations (referred to as our 2019, 2018 and 2014 Footprint realignment plans) and the 2021 Restructuring plan, which is also described above. We also have similar ongoing activities to relocate certain manufacturing operations within our OEM segment (the "OEM initiative") that do not meet the criteria for a restructuring program under applicable accounting guidance; nevertheless, the activities should result in cost savings (we expect only minimal costs to be incurred in connection with the OEM initiative). With respect to the restructuring programs and the OEM initiative, the table below summarizes charges incurred or estimated to be incurred and estimated annual pre-tax savings to be realized as follows: (1) with respect to charges (a) the estimated total charges that will have been incurred once the restructuring programs and OEM initiative are completed; (b) the charges incurred through December 31, 2020; and (c) the estimated charges to be incurred from January 1, 2021 through the last anticipated completion date of the restructuring programs and OEM initiative, and (2) with respect to estimated annual pre-tax savings, (a) the estimated total annual pre-tax savings to be realized once the restructuring programs and OEM initiative are completed; (b) the estimated annual pre-tax savings realized based on the progress of the restructuring programs and OEM initiative through December 31, 2020; and (c) the estimated additional annual pre-tax savings to be realized from January 1, 2021 through the last anticipated completion date of the restructuring programs and the OEM initiative.
Estimated charges and pre-tax savings are subject to change based on, among other things, the nature and timing of restructuring activities and similar activities, changes in the scope of restructuring programs and the OEM initiative, unanticipated expenditures and other developments, the effect of additional acquisitions or dispositions, and other factors that were not reflected in the assumptions made by management in previously estimating restructuring and restructuring related charges and estimated pre-tax savings. Moreover, estimated pre-tax savings constituting efficiencies with respect to increased costs that otherwise would have resulted from business acquisitions involve, among other things, assumptions regarding the cost structure and integration of businesses that previously were not administered by our management, which are subject to a particularly high degree of risk and uncertainty. It is likely that estimates of charges and pre-tax savings will change from time to time, and the table below may reflect changes from amounts previously estimated. In addition, the table below reflects the estimated charges and pre-tax savings related to our ongoing programs. Additional details, including estimated charges expected to be incurred in connection with our restructuring programs and the anticipated completion dates, are described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report.
Pre-tax savings may be realized during, and subsequent to, the completion of the restructuring program. Pre-tax savings can also be affected by increases or decreases in sales volumes generated by the businesses impacted by the consolidation of manufacturing operations; such variations in revenues can increase or decrease pre-tax savings generated by the consolidation of manufacturing operations. For example, an increase in sales volumes generated by the impacted businesses, although likely to increase manufacturing costs, may generate additional savings with respect to costs that otherwise would have been incurred if the manufacturing operations were not consolidated.

Comparison of the three and nine months ended September 26, 2021 and September 27, 2020
Americas
Americas net revenues for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $42.3 million, or 11.3%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to net revenues of $15.6 million generated by the Z-Medica acquisition, a $9.9 million increase in new product sales and price increases. The increase in net revenue was also the result of sales made to Medline pursuant to the MSTA.
Americas net revenues for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $162.0 million, or 15.5%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $72.9 million increase in sales volumes of
25
existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year, net revenues of $44.8 million generated by the Z-Medica acquisition and, to a lesser extent, an increase in new product sales.
Americas operating profit for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2021 decreased $9.3 million, or 7.6% and $8.9 million, or 2.8%, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a benefit recognized in the prior year resulting from decreases in the estimated fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities stemming from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and expenses incurred by Z-Medica, partially offset by an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales.
In July 2021, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) published its proposed Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) and proposed Outpatient Prospective Payment System (OPPS) rates for calendar year 2022. The proposed rules, among other things, provide for updates with respect to the rates used to determine the reimbursement amounts received by healthcare providers across a broad range of healthcare procedures, including our UroLift System procedure. Specifically, for UroLift procedures performed in a physician office setting, the reimbursement rates outlined in the proposed PFS are 19-21% lower as compared to 2021, while the proposed reimbursement rates outlined in the OPPS for UroLift procedures performed in the hospital outpatient or ambulatory surgical center setting are 3% higher as compared to 2021. During the 60-day public comment period for the proposed rules, we engaged with industry associations and other key stakeholders to reiterate the benefits of the UroLift System and the importance of compensating physicians appropriately for performing procedures such as UroLift in lower cost settings, such as the physician’s office, and to advocate for reimbursement rates higher than what has been proposed. We anticipate the final rules to be published during the fourth quarter of 2021. In the event
the proposed reimbursement rates for the UroLift procedure are adopted in the final rules, we may experience an adverse effect on sales of our UroLift System to urologists performing the procedure in the office setting. From the beginning of 2016 through September 2021, approximately two-thirds of Urolift procedures have been performed in a hospital outpatient or ambulatory surgical center setting with the remainder being performed in a physician office setting.
EMEA
EMEA net revenues for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $8.2 million, or 6.1%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $6.9 million increase in sales volumes of existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year and $3.2 million of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $4.5 million decrease in sales volumes attributed to the Respiratory business divestiture.
EMEA net revenues for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $18.9 million, or 4.5%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to $30.3 million of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by a $13.2 million decrease in sales volumes of existing products largely stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic.
EMEA operating profit for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $1.9 million, or 10.5%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales, partially offset by an increase in EU MDR costs within research and development.
EMEA operating profit for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $12.9 million, or 24.2%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by an increase in EU MDR costs within research and development.
Asia
Asia net revenues for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $6.8 million, or 9.9%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $5.1 million increase in sales volumes of existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year, favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and new product sales, partially offset by a decrease in sales volumes attributed to the Respiratory business divestiture.
Asia net revenues for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $30.8 million, or 16.4%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to $12.9 million of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, a $10.8 million increase in sales volumes of existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year and a $7.1 million increase in new product sales,
Asia operating profit for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $17.4 million, or 172.7%, and $31.6 million, or 93.3%, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year period, which was
26
primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales, favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and a benefit from the reversal of a contingent liability related to tariffs imposed by Chinese authorities, which is described further in Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
OEM
OEM net revenues for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $14.7 million, or 29.7%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $12.4 million increase in sales volumes of existing products largely stemming from the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic had on the prior year and a $2.1 million increase in new product sales.
OEM net revenues for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $9.9 million, or 5.9%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to a $4.1 million increase in new product sales, net revenues of $4.0 million generated by the HPC acquisition and $2.5 million of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
OEM operating profit for the three months ended September 26, 2021 increased $6.2 million, or 73.4%, compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales.
OEM operating profit for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 increased $6.6 million or 18.4%. compared to the prior year period, which was primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales and HPC acquisition costs incurred in the prior period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
While the potential economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the extent and duration of the pandemic's impact are difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity. In consideration of the significant uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we are continuing to assess our liquidity and anticipated capital requirements. Notwithstanding the significant uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under our revolving credit facility will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis.
In consideration of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we are closely monitoring our receivables and payables. To date, we have not experienced significant payment defaults by, or identified other collectability concerns with, our customers, and we have sufficient lending commitments in place to enable us to fund our anticipated additional operating needs.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $450.5 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $241.5 million for the nine months ended September 27, 2020. The $209.0 million increase was primarily attributable to favorable operating results, lower contingent consideration payments, lower payroll and benefit related payments, and $33.8 million in proceeds received as part of the initial phase of the Respiratory business divestiture attributed to performance obligations under the MSTA. The increases in operating cash flows was partially offset by an increase in tax payments related to the Respiratory business divestiture.
Net cash provided from investing activities from continuing operations was $167.7 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2021, primarily consisted $225.9 million in proceeds from the sale of the Respiratory business divestiture, capital expenditures of $52.1 million and net interest proceeds on swaps designated as net investment hedges of $9.3 million.
Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $500.4 million for the nine months ended September 26, 2021, primarily consisted of a reduction in borrowings of $434.0 million, primarily resulting from the redemption of the $400 million 2026 Notes, dividend payments of $47.7 million and contingent consideration payments of $31.4 million.
27
Borrowings
During the third quarter of 2021, we repaid $259 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility using funds primarily consisting of proceeds we received from the initial close of the Respiratory business divestiture.
On April 29, 2021, we issued a notice of redemption to holders of our outstanding $400 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes. Pursuant to the notice of redemption, the 2026 Notes were redeemed on June 1, 2021 (the “Redemption Date”) using borrowings under the revolving credit facility and cash on hand at a redemption price equal to 102.438% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Redemption Date (the “Redemption Price”). We recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $13.0 million as a result of the redemption of the 2026 Notes.
The indenture governing our 4.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) and 4.25% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes") contain covenants that, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to create liens; consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets; and enter into sale leaseback transactions.
As of September 26, 2021, we were in compliance with these requirements. The obligations under the Credit Agreement, the 2027 Notes and 2028 Notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the Credit Agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by us and each guarantor.
Summarized Financial Information – Obligor Group
The 2026 Notes and 2027 Notes (collectively, the "Senior Notes") are issued by Teleflex Incorporated (the “Parent Company”), and payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the Senior Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by an enumerated group of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. Summarized financial information for the Parent and Guarantor Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Obligor Group”) as of September 26, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and for the nine months ended September 26, 2021 is as follows:

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.
New Accounting Standards
See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance, including estimated effects, if any, of adoption of the guidance on our financial statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including the adverse economic conditions associated with the COVID-19 global health pandemic and the associated financial crisis, stay-at-home and other orders, which could cause material delays and cancellations of elective procedures, curtailed or delayed spending by customers and result in disruptions to our supply chain, closure of our facilities, delays in product launches or diversion of management and other resources to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic; the impact of global and regional economic and credit market conditions on healthcare spending; the risk that the COVID-19 pandemic disrupts local economies and causes economies to enter prolonged recessions; changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers; delays or cancellations of shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; our inability to provide products to our customers, which may be due to, among other things, events that impact key distributors, suppliers and vendors that sterilize our products; our inability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with our expectations; our inability to effectively execute our restructuring plans and programs; our inability to realize anticipated savings from restructuring plans and programs; the impact of enacted healthcare reform legislation and proposals to amend, replace or repeal the legislation; changes in Medicare, Medicaid and third party coverage and reimbursements; the impact of tax legislation and related regulations; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; global economic factors, including currency exchange rates, interest rates, trade disputes and sovereign debt issues; difficulties in entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A, "Risk Factors," in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise specifically stated by us or as required by law or regulation.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes to the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
29
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, commercial disputes, intellectual property, contract, employment, environmental and other matters. As of September 26, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had accrued liabilities of approximately $0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that the outcome of any outstanding lawsuits or 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.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended September 26, 2021.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Not applicable.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
Not applicable.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
