Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(in millions, except shares)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business

Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. (“Catalent” or the “Company”) is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PTS Intermediate Holdings LLC (“Intermediate Holdings”). Intermediate Holdings is a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of PTS Holdings Corp. (“Parent”) and Parent is 100% owned by Phoenix Charter LLC (“Phoenix”) and certain members of the Company’s senior management. Phoenix is wholly-owned by BHP PTS Holdings L.L.C., an entity controlled by affiliates of The Blackstone Group (“Blackstone”), a global private investment and advisory firm.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended June 30, 2010. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results reported in these Consolidated Financial Statements should not be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior periods consolidated financial statements and notes to the current period presentation including reclassification of the financial results of a site in Schorndorf, Germany from the Packaging Services business unit to the Oral Technologies business unit and certain income tax reclassifications within the guarantor/non guarantor financial statements. In addition, during the quarter we classified the printed components component of the Packaging Services business unit as a held for sale operation to be discontinued. Accordingly, all current and prior period financial information has been reclassified within the financial statements to held for sale captions on the balance sheet and discontinued operations captions on the statements of operations and cash flow. See Note 2 for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory and long-lived asset valuation, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, equity-based compensation, income taxes, derivative financial instruments, self insurance accruals, loss contingencies and restructuring charge reserves. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 605 Revenue Recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized net of sales returns and allowances. Manufacturing and packaging revenue is recognized either upon shipment or delivery of the product, in accordance with the terms of the contract, which specify when transfer of title occurs. Some of the Company’s manufacturing contracts with its customers have annual minimum purchase requirements. At the end of the contract year, revenue is recognized for the remaining purchase obligation in accordance with the contract terms. Non-product revenue includes service fees, royalty fees, annual exclusivity fees, option fees to extend exclusivity agreements and milestone payments for attaining certain regulatory approvals and is recognized at fair value. Exclusivity payments are paid by customers in return for the Company’s commitment to manufacture certain products for those customers only. The revenue related to these agreements is recognized over the term of the exclusivity agreement or the term of the option agreement unless a particular milestone is designated, in which case revenue is recognized when service obligations or performance have been completed. Arrangements containing multiple revenue generating activities are accounted for in accordance with applicable accounting guidance included within the framework of U.S. GAAP. If the deliverable meets the criteria of a separate unit of accounting, the arrangement revenue is allocated to each element based upon its relative fair value. Generally, in cases where we have multiple contracts with the same customer we treat such contracts as separate arrangements.

Property and Equipment and Other Definite Lived Intangible Assets

Property and equipment are reported at cost minus accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, including capital lease assets that are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the terms of the respective leases. The Company generally uses the following range of useful lives for its property and equipment categories: buildings and improvements—5 to 50 years; machinery and equipment—3 to 20 years; furniture and fixtures—3 to 10 years. Depreciation expense was $67.8 million and $69.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The Company charges repairs and maintenance costs to expense as incurred. The amount of capitalized interest was immaterial for all periods presented.

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including amortizing intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred pursuant to Codification Standard ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment (ASC 360). This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value through a charge to the Statements of Operations. Fair value is determined based on assumptions the Company believes marketplace participants would utilize and comparable marketplace information in similar arms length transactions. See Note 4 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Goodwill

The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives in accordance with ASC 350 - Goodwill – Intangible and Other Assets, (“ASC 350”). Under ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets with finite lives, primarily customer relationships and patents and trademarks, continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units utilizing estimated future discounted cash flows and incorporates assumptions that it believes marketplace participants would utilize and comparative market information. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment in accordance with ASC 350. The Company’s impairment analysis is based on a discounted cash flow analysis and other valuation methods which incorporate assumptions that it believes marketplace participants would utilize. The discount rate used for impairment testing is based on the risk-free rate plus an adjustment for market and company-specific risk factors. The use of alternative estimates, or adjusting the discount rate used could affect the estimated fair value of the assets and potentially result in more or less impairment. Any identified impairment would result in an adjustment to the Company’s results of operations. See Note 3 to the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

We classify long-lived assets or a component entity as assets held for sale when the criteria have been met, in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”). Further, we classify component entities as operations which have been discontinued when the criteria of ASC 205-20, Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205”) are met and the operations and cash flows have been or will be eliminated from the ongoing operations and we have no significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. See Note 2 to these financial statements for additional information.

Recent Financial Accounting Standards

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method”, a standard that provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for certain research and development transactions. Under this new standard, a company can recognize as revenue consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in the period in which it is achieved, if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. This standard is effective on a prospective basis for periods beginning after July 1, 2010. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2009-13 “Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, an amendment to the accounting standards related to the accounting for revenue derived from arrangements with multiple deliverables including how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered items under the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminates the use of the residual method for allocating arrangement consideration and requires an entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third party evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the disclosure requirements about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. We adopted this accounting standard on July 1, 2010 and adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

9


During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company concluded that its printed components facilities qualified as a component entity, the operations of which will be classified as held for sale and discontinued. Accordingly, all current and prior period financial information has been reclassified within the financial statements to held for sale captions on the balance sheet and discontinued operations captions within the statements of operations and cash flow. The printed components entity was previously reported in the Company’s Packaging segment.

On November 13, 2009, the Company completed its sale of the North Raleigh, North Carolina sterile injectables facility to a third party for an amount which approximated fair value.

The operating results of these components are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 within discontinued operations.

In connection with ASC 350, the Company is required to assess goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. The Company assesses goodwill for possible impairment by comparing the carrying value of its reporting units to their fair values. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units utilizing estimated future discounted cash flows and incorporates assumptions that it believes marketplace participants would utilize. In addition, the Company uses comparative market information and other factors to corroborate the discounted cash flow results.

During fiscal year 2010, the Company concluded that goodwill impairment indicators existed in the Sterile Technologies reporting unit and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $158.3 million. In addition, in connection with the Company’s

 

10


re-organization, certain components were moved out of the Packaging reporting unit and into the Development and Clinical Services unit. This re-organization resulted in allocating a relative fair value of the goodwill associated with the Packaging reporting unit to the new unit and recording a non-cash charge of $32.4 million.

Impairment charges are recorded within the Consolidated Statements of Operations as Impairment charges and loss/(gain) on sale of assets.

5. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial

 

11


instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the EUR-USD exchange rate on its investments in foreign operations in Europe. While the Company does not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, we have mitigated the exposure of our investments in our European operations by denominating a portion of our debt in Euros. At March 31, 2011, the Company had Euro denominated debt outstanding of $662.3 million that qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. For non-derivatives designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, the effective portion of the translation gains or losses are reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. During the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded $82.9 million as a loss within cumulative translation adjustment. The net accumulated gain of this net investment as of March 31, 2011 included within Other Comprehensive Income was approximately $25.7 million. Amounts are reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Credit Risk Related to Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.

As of March 31, 2011, the terminal value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $41.4 million. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of its derivative counterparties and has posted collateral of $9.0 million. If the Company had breached any of these provisions at March 31, 2011, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $41.4 million.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2011, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges for financial reporting purposes is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the balance sheet and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had three outstanding interest rate derivatives; two with a combined notional value of $760 million and one with a notional of €240 million. These instruments are designated for financial accounting purposes as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Amounts reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. As of March 31, 2011, the Company expects to reclassify $23.3 million from other comprehensive income into interest expense over the next twelve months.

Non-designated Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had a ¥1.575 billion notional value derivative outstanding maturing on May 15, 2013 that was an effective economic hedge but not designated for financial accounting purposes as a hedge instrument. This instrument is not speculative and is used to manage the Company’s economic exposure to interest rate movements. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as a hedge for financial accounting purposes are recorded directly into earnings as other expense.

The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010.

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

13


Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques and also includes instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.

Fair value under ASC 820 is principally applied to financial assets and liabilities which, for Catalent, include both investments in money market funds and derivative instruments—interest rate swaps. There were no changes from the previously reported classification of financial assets and liabilities. The following table provides a summary of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents is estimated on the quoted market price of the investments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash equivalents approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Derivative Instruments – Interest Rate Swaps

Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk on its variable rate long-term debt obligations. The fair value of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) and derived from observed market interest rate curves. In addition, to comply with the provision of ASC 820, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements on the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk. See Footnote 5—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.

Long-Term Obligations

The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered for debt of the same remaining maturities and considers collateral, if any.

The carrying amounts and the estimated fair values of financial instruments as of March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2010, are as follows:

The Company had the option every six months until April 15, 2011, at its election, to use the payment-in-kind (“PIK”) feature of its $565 million 9 1/2% /10 1/4 % Senior PIK-Election Notes due 2015 (the “Senior Toggle Notes”) in lieu of making cash interest payments. While the Company had sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated ongoing needs without use of this PIK feature, the Company elected to do so for the October 15, 2009 and April 15, 2010 interest payment dates as an efficient and cost-effective method to further enhance liquidity in light of the substantial dislocation in the financial markets at that time. During the PIK election period, the Senior Toggle Notes were subject to the PIK interest rate of 10 1/4%. For the interest period ending on October 15, 2010, the Company made such interest payment entirely in cash.

In connection with this election, on April 12, 2010, we delivered notice to The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly known as The Bank of New York), in its capacity as trustee under the indenture for the Company’s outstanding Senior Toggle Notes, that, with respect to the interest due on such notes on the October 15, 2010 interest payment date, the Company would make such interest payment entirely in cash at the cash interest rate of 9.50%. As a result, the entirely cash interest election became the default election and the Company did not elect to change the cash interest election for the final interest election period ending April 15, 2011. Therefore, all remaining interest payments on the Senior Toggle Notes are to be paid entirely in cash in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

 

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the provision of ASC 740 Income Taxes. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in the U.S. and non-U.S. pretax income resulting from the Company’s business mix and changes in the tax impact of special items and other discrete tax items, which may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item. In the normal course of business, we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom and France. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to non-U.S. income tax examinations for years prior to 2002. Under the terms of the purchase agreement related to the Acquisition, the Company is indemnified by Cardinal for tax liabilities that may arise in the future that relate to tax periods prior to April 10, 2007. The indemnification agreement includes, among other taxes, any and all Federal, state and international income based taxes as well as interest and penalties that may be related thereto. As of March 31, 2011, approximately $10.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits and related interest is subject to indemnification by Cardinal.

During the third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a voluntary disclosure agreement with the state of Florida, the terms of which required the Company to pay $0.4M in taxes and interest to the state of Florida in settlement of its liability for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010 for RP Scherer Inc. As a result, the Company reported the release of income tax reserves primarily related to matters for which the Company was indemnified by its former owner. Therefore, the impact on the Company’s tax provision was not material. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had a total of $30.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits. Of this amount, $20.0 million represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, which, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective income tax rate. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On March 24, 2011, a Packaging Services manufacturing operation located in Corby, United Kingdom was damaged by a fire. All employees and contractors on site were safely evacuated with no injuries reported. The Company recorded expense for inventory that was damaged and additional costs associated with transition activities in the income statement line item Property and casualty losses within continuing operations. For the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded $1.1 million of expense, net of insurance recoveries, to operating expense. Future impairment charges, capital expenditures and non-recurring expenses may be required in subsequent periods as more information becomes available and the Company finalizes and executes on its strategic plans in response to the losses. Although the Company expects insurance proceeds to eventually cover a substantial portion of losses related to the fire, generally accepted accounting principles require the Company to record a charge to income with respect to the affected assets. While the Company is working diligently with its insurance providers, no determination has been made as to the total amount of the associated charges or timing of the receipt of insurance proceeds.

The Company, along with several pharmaceutical companies, is named as a defendant in one hundred and ninety-nine pending civil lawsuits filed by individuals allegedly injured by their use of the prescription acne medication Amnesteem®, a branded generic form of isotretinoin, and in some instances of isotretinoin products made and/or sold by other firms as well. While it is not possible to determine with any degree of certainty the ultimate outcome of these legal proceedings, including making a determination of liability, the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses with respect to the claims asserted against it and intends to vigorously defend its position.

From time to time the Company may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of which could be significant. The Company intends to vigorously defend ourselves against such other litigation and does not currently believe that the outcome of any such other litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

14. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company conducts its business within the following operating segments: Softgel Technologies, Modified Release Technologies, Sterile Technologies, Packaging Services and Development & Clinical Services. The Softgel and Modified Release Technology segments are aggregated into one reportable operating segment – Oral Technologies. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment earnings before noncontrolling interest, other (income) expense, impairments, restructuring costs, interest expense, income tax (benefit)/expense, and depreciation and amortization (“Segment EBITDA”). EBITDA from continuing operations is consolidated earnings from continuing operations before interest expense, income tax (benefit)/expense, depreciation and amortization and is adjusted for the income or loss attributable to non controlling interest. The Company’s presentation of Segment EBITDA and EBITDA from continuing operations may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

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

The Company

Catalent Pharma Solutions, Inc. is one of the leading providers of advanced drug delivery technologies and outsourced development, manufacturing, and packaging services to the global pharmaceutical, biotechnology and consumer health industry. Our proprietary drug delivery and formulation technologies help our customers achieve their desired clinical and market outcomes and are used in many well-known products. Our business is organized in the following reportable segments: Oral Technologies, Sterile Technologies, Packaging Services and Development & Clinical Services. We believe that through our prior and ongoing investments in capacity, ongoing focus on operational excellence, innovation activities, the sales of existing products and introduction of new products by our customers, we will continue to benefit from attractive margins and from the growth potential in these areas.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company concluded that its printed components facilities qualified as a component entity, the operations of which will be discontinued and the assets and liabilities classified as held for sale. Accordingly, all current and prior period financial information has been reclassified within the financial statements to held for sale captions on the balance sheet and discontinued operations captions within the statements of operations and cash flow. The printed components entity was previously recorded in the Company’s Packaging segment prior to being held for sale.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparations of financial statements are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These standards require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory and long-lived asset valuation, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment, equity-based compensation, income taxes, derivative financial instruments, self insurance accruals, loss contingencies and restructuring charge reserves. Actual amounts may differ from these estimated amounts.

There were no material changes to the critical accounting policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates from those described in the Company’s fiscal year 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, other than recently adopted accounting principles, none of which had a material impact.

Recent Financial Accounting Standards

In April 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update 2010-17, “Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method”, a standard that provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for certain research and development transactions. Under this new standard, a company can recognize as revenue consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in the period in which it is achieved, if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. This standard is effective on a prospective basis for periods beginning after July 1, 2010. The adoption of this update did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2009-13 “Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, an amendment to the accounting standards related to the accounting for revenue derived from arrangements with multiple deliverables including how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered items under the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminates the use of the residual method for allocating arrangement consideration and requires an entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third party evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the disclosure requirements about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. We adopted this accounting standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

Use of EBITDA from continuing operations

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

 

30


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

In addition, the Company evaluates the performance of its segments based on segment earnings before noncontrolling interest, other (income)/expense, impairments, restructuring costs, interest expense, income tax (benefit)/expense, and depreciation and amortization (“Segment EBITDA”).

Net Revenue

Net revenue increased $5.3 million, or 1%, compared to the same period a year ago. The weaker U.S. dollar favorably impacted revenue by less than 1%, or $2.7 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, net revenue increased by $2.6 million, or less than 1%, as compared to the comparable period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to increased demand within the Oral Technologies, Development and Clinical Services and Sterile Technologies segments, partially offset by decreased demand within Packaging Services as a result of non-recurring H1N1 flu volumes that the Company realized in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year due to the H1N1 pandemic in the prior fiscal year. Within Oral Technologies, the increase was primarily driven by increased demand for prescription softgel products from several North American and European facilities. Within Development & Clinical Services, the increase was primarily driven by increased demand for clinical services and biologics within North America and Europe. The Sterile Technologies increase was related to increased demand for our sterile injectable and blow-fill-seal product offerings across North America and Europe.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased $12.8 million, or 10%, compared to the same period a year ago. The weaker U.S. dollar favorably impacted gross margin by approximately 1%, or $0.7 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, gross margin increased by $12.1 million, or 9%, primarily due to the increased demand for prescription softgels and favorable product mix within the Oral Technologies segment as well as due to the revenue increase within the Development and Clinical Services and Sterile Technologies

 

31


segments. Gross Margin improvement was partially offset by the decreased demand and profit within Packaging Services related to H1N1 volumes as compared to the prior year period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased by less than 1%, or $0.3 million, compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2010. The U.S. dollar fluctuation decreased selling, general and administrative expense by approximately 3%, or $2.7 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4%, or $3.0 million, as compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to the timing of research and development expenses and investments in our sales and marketing function.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other charges of $3.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 decreased $3.2 million compared to the same period from a year ago primarily attributable to lower volumes of restructuring programs initiated in the current quarter of fiscal 2011. The restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2011 related to employee charges associated with restructuring the organizational alignment with our business units.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of $39.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 increased $2.4 million compared to the period ended March 31, 2010 primarily due to higher average foreign exchange rates as compared to the same period a year ago.

Other (Income)/Expense, net

Other expense increased by $11.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same three months of the prior fiscal year. This fluctuation primarily resulted from non-cash unrealized and realized foreign currency transaction losses of $11.4 million during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011 compared with $0.9 million of non-cash unrealized and realized foreign currency transaction losses recorded in the comparable prior year period. In both periods the majority of these losses related to intercompany debt and interest rate swaps denoted in currencies other than US dollars.

Provision/(Benefit) for Income Taxes

Our provision / (benefit) for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $7.9 million relative to losses before income taxes of $2.1 million. Our provision / (benefit) for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $7.5 million relative to income before income taxes of $4.7 million. The income tax provision for the current period may not be comparable to the same period of the prior year due to changes in pretax income over many jurisdictions and the impact of discrete items.

Oral Technologies segment

Net revenue increased by 3%, or $9.7 million compared to the same period a year ago. The weaker U.S. dollar positively impacted revenue by approximately 1%, or $2.6 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, net revenue increased by 2%, or $7.1 million. This increase was primarily related to increased demand for prescription softgel products from several North American and European facilities, as well as increased demand for controlled release products, partially offset by decreased market demand for our customer’s products which utilize our Zydis delivery platform.

Segment EBITDA increased by 12%, or $9.3 million. Oral Technologies’ EBITDA was positively impacted by the weaker U.S. dollar by approximately 1%, or $0.5 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, the increase was $8.8 million, or 11%, and was primarily related to the previously mentioned demand increases for prescription softgel products and controlled release products, as well as favorable product mix within the segment.

Sterile Technologies segment

Net revenue increased by 5%, or $2.5 million as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily driven by increased demand for our injectables and blow-fill-seal offerings across North America and Europe. The weaker U.S. dollar had an immaterial impact on the segments revenue growth.

Segment EBITDA increased by 11%, or $0.8 million as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year primarily attributable to the increased revenue as discussed above, as well as fixed overhead cost savings initiatives implemented throughout the segment.

Packaging Services segment

Net revenue decreased by 24%, or $12.1 million. The decrease in revenue was primarily attributable to customer insourcing as well as lower demands within North American and European commercial packaging facilities as a result of non-recurring H1N1 flu volumes which were realized in the same fiscal quarter of the prior year. The weaker U.S. dollar had an immaterial impact on the segments revenue.

Segment EBITDA decreased 41%, or $1.7 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower demand at our North American and European commercial packaging facilities due to non-recurring H1N1 volumes from the prior fiscal year as discussed above.

Development and Clinical Services segment

Net revenue increased by 9%, or $3.4 million, primarily driven by increased demand for clinical services and biologics within North America and Europe. The weaker U.S. dollar had an immaterial impact on the segments revenue growth.

Segment EBITDA increased by 13%, or $0.9 million. The increase was primarily due to the aforementioned demand increase for clinical services and biologics within Europe and North America. Segment EBITDA was not impacted by currency fluctuation for the quarter.

Net Revenue

Net revenue decreased $32.5 million, or 3%, compared to the same period a year ago. The stronger U.S. dollar unfavorably impacted revenue by approximately 2%, or $23.8 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, net revenue decreased by $8.7 million, or 1%, during the nine months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to decreased demand within Packaging Services and Sterile Technologies, partially offset by increases within the Oral Technologies and Development & Clinical Services segments. The decrease in Packaging Services was driven by reduced demand for commercial packaging services, attributable to non-recurring H1N1 flu related volumes that the Company realized in the same period in the prior fiscal year as a result of the H1N1 pandemic as well as customer insourcing. The Sterile Technologies decline was also primarily attributable to non-recurring H1N1 flu related volumes form the prior fiscal year, as well as certain customer volume declines within the blow-fill-seal technology platform. The Oral Technologies increase was a result of stronger demand for prescription softgel and controlled release products within several North American and European facilities, partially offset by near term decreased market demand for our customer’s products which utilize our Zydis platform. The Development & Clinical Services volume increase was primarily related to strong demand for biologic and clinical services within North America and Europe.

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased $18.6 million, or 5%, compared to the same period a year ago. The stronger U.S. dollar unfavorably impacted gross margin by approximately 2%, or $7.5 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, gross margin increased by $26.1 million, or 7%, primarily due to favorable product mix related to revenue increases within the Oral Technologies segment and the increased demand for biologic and clinical services within the Development and Clinical Services segment.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased by less than 1%, or $1.0 million, compared to the comparable period of fiscal 2010. The U.S. dollar fluctuation decreased selling, general and administrative expense by approximately 3%, or $6.0 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 3%, or $7.0 million, as compared to the same period a year ago primarily due to an increase in research and development spending within our segments as compared to the same period in the prior year and investments in our sales and marketing functions.

Restructuring and Other

Restructuring and other special items charges of $14.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 increased $1.2 million compared to the same period a year ago. The charges for the nine month ended March 31, 2011 included asset impairment and real

 

35


estate charges related to planned facility consolidations announced in prior periods, employee related charges resulting from organizational changes and reductions in force to adjust the capacity of our workforce within our business units.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net of $121.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 decreased $0.8 million, primarily driven by the lower average foreign exchange rates compared to the nine month period ended March 31, 2010.

Other (Income)/Expense, net

Other expense, net increased by $4.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the same nine months of the prior fiscal year. This fluctuation primarily resulted from recording non-cash unrealized foreign currency transaction losses of $11.8 million during the nine months of fiscal year 2011 compared with $14.8 million of non-cash unrealized foreign currency transaction losses in the comparable prior year period. In addition, Euro hedge losses recorded in the prior year period totaled $3.3 million as compared to $0.2 million gain during the nine months ended March 31, 2011 due to the designation of the financial instrument for hedge accounting purposes effective October 1, 2010. These amounts were offset by an increase in realized foreign currency losses of approximately $8.9 million associated with inter-company loan activity.

Provision/(Benefit) for Income Taxes

The income tax provision / (benefit) relative to earnings / (loss) before income taxes, minority interest and discontinued operations was 82.1 % and 5.8% for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in our geographic pretax income resulting from our business mix and changes in the tax impact of permanent differences, restructuring, other special items and other discrete tax items, which may have unique tax implications depending on the nature of the item. Our effective tax rate reflects benefits derived from operations outside the United States, which are generally taxed at lower rates than the U.S. statutory rate of 35%.

Oral Technologies segment

Net revenue increased by 1%, or $5.9 million, compared to the same period a year ago. The stronger U.S. dollar negatively impacted revenue totals by approximately 2%, or $13.8 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, net revenue increased by 3%, or $19.7 million. This increase was primarily related to increased demand for prescription and consumer health softgel and controlled release products from several North American, South American and European facilities, partially offset by near term decreased market demand for our customer’s products which utilize our Zydis platform.

Segment EBITDA increased by 8%, or $15.7 million. Oral Technologies’ EBITDA was negatively impacted by the stronger U.S. dollar by approximately 2%, or $3.6 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, the increase was $19.3 million, or 10%, which was primarily related to the previously mentioned demand increases for prescription and consumer health softgel and controlled release products and favorable product mix at several facilities, partially offset by the decreased demand for Zydis products as discussed above.

Sterile Technologies segment

Net revenue decreased by 7%, or $12.4 million. The stronger U.S. dollar negatively impacted revenue growth by approximately 4%, or $6.6 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, net revenues decreased 3%, or $5.8 million, which was primarily driven by customer volume declines within the blow-fill-seal offering and decreased volumes within one of the European injectable facilities as a result of non-recurring H1N1 related volumes that were realized during the same period of the prior fiscal year.

Segment EBITDA decreased by 16%, or $4.2 million. Sterile Technologies’ EBITDA was negatively impacted by the stronger U.S. dollar by approximately 5%, or $1.2 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, the decrease was 11%, or $3.0 million. The decrease was due to the volume declines within the European injectable facilities and the blow-fill-seal offering, as discussed above.

Packaging Services segment

Net revenue decreased by 22%, or $34.8 million. The stronger U.S. dollar negatively impacted the segment’s revenue growth by approximately 1%, or $1.0 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, net revenue decreased by approximately 21%, or $33.8 million, which was primarily related to lower demand within North American and European commercial packaging facilities, which was attributable to non-recurring H1N1 flu related volumes that were realized in the same period of the prior fiscal year as discussed above as well as customer volume declines.

Segment EBITDA decreased 64%, or $7.4 million. Segment EBITDA was negatively impacted by the stronger U.S. dollar by approximately 1%, or $0.1 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, the decrease of 63%, or $7.3 million, was primarily related to lower demand at our North American and European commercial packaging facilities partially related to the non-recurring H1N1 flu volumes occurring in the prior fiscal year as described above, partially offset by the implementation of manufacturing indirect and selling, general and administration cost saving efficiencies across the segment.

Development and Clinical Services segment

Net revenue increased by 5%, or $6.6 million. The stronger U.S. dollar negatively impacted the revenue growth by approximately 2%, or $2.5 million. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, revenues increased 7%, or $9.1 million, which was primarily driven by increased demand for biologics services and for clinical services projects within several North American and European facilities.

Segment EBITDA increased by 25%, or $5.1 million. Segment EBITDA was negatively impacted by the stronger U.S. dollar by approximately 4%, or $0.9 million. Excluding this impact, the increase was 29%, or $6.0 million, which was primarily due to the aforementioned demand increase for biologics services and clinical services projects.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

The Company’s principal source of liquidity has been cash flow generated from operations. The principal uses of cash are to fund planned operating and capital expenditures, interest payments on debt and any mandatory or discretionary principal payments on debt issuances. As of March 31, 2011, the Company’s financing needs were supported by a $350.0 million revolving credit agreement, which was reduced by $15.0 million of outstanding letters of credit. The revolving credit agreement matures April 10, 2013. As of March 31, 2011, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit agreement.

The Company had the option every six months until April 15, 2011, at its election, to use the payment-in-kind (“PIK”) feature of its $565 million 9 1/2% /10 1/4 % Senior PIK-Election Notes due 2015 (the “Senior Toggle Notes”) in lieu of making cash interest payments. While the Company had sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated ongoing needs without use of this PIK feature, the Company elected to do so for the October 15, 2009 and April 15, 2010 interest payment dates as an efficient and cost-effective method to further enhance liquidity in light of the substantial dislocation in the financial markets at that time. During the PIK election period, the Senior Toggle Notes were subject to the PIK interest rate of 10 1/4%. For the interest period ending on October 15, 2010, the Company made such interest payment entirely in cash.

In connection with this election, on April 12, 2010, we delivered notice to The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly known as The Bank of New York), in its capacity as trustee under the indenture for the Company’s outstanding Senior Toggle Notes, that, with respect to the interest due on such notes on the October 15, 2010 interest payment date, the Company would make such interest payment entirely in cash at the cash interest rate of 9.5%. As a result, the entirely cash interest election became the default election and the Company did not elect to change the cash interest election for the final interest election period ending April 15, 2011. Therefore, all remaining interest payments on the Senior Toggle Notes are to be paid entirely in cash in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

We continue to believe that the Company’s cash from operations and available borrowings under the revolving credit facility will be adequate to meet the Company’s future liquidity needs for at least the next twelve months.

Cash Flows

Financing activities

     (19.8     (55.1     35.3   

Operating activities

For the nine month period ended March 31, 2011, cash provided by operating activities was $96.6 million compared to cash provided by operating activities of $174.9 million for the nine month period ended March 31, 2010. The reduction was primarily driven by our election to cease using the PIK feature of the Senior Toggle Notes and to pay cash interest for the interest period ending on October 15, 2010. In addition, cash flow computations are impacted by changes in our interest rate swaps, foreign exchange rates impacting our liability accounts and the impact of our income tax provision on our accrued income tax payable balance.

Investing activities

For the nine month period ended March 31, 2011, cash used in investing activities was $50.1 million, an increase of $6.8 million compared to the nine month period ending March 31, 2010. The fluctuation was the result of higher fiscal 2011 year to date capital expenditures of $10.7 million as compared to the same prior fiscal year period, offset by an increase in the cash proceeds from the sale of assets.

Financing activities

For the nine month period ended March 31, 2011, cash used in financing activities was $19.8 million compared to cash used in financing activities of $55.1 million in the same period a year ago. The year-over-year fluctuation was primarily attributable to the repayments of $36.0 million of borrowings from our revolving credit facility in prior year period, with no such payment being made in the current year period.

 

39


Debt and Financing Arrangements

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage the economic effect of variable rate interest obligations associated with our floating rate term loans so that the interest payable on the term loans effectively becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest rate changes on our future interest expense. As of March 31, 2011, we had four interest rate swap agreements that have the economic effect of modifying the variable interest obligations associated with our floating rate term loans. These agreements include two U.S dollar-denominated, one Euro-denominated and one Yen-denominated interest rate swap agreements. The unrealized gains on our interest rate swaps that are designated as effective cash flow hedges for accounting purposes were $14.4 million, net of tax and are recorded within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss on our balance sheet at March 31, 2011.

The current Japanese Yen interest rate swap was designed as an effective economic hedge but not designated as effective for financial reporting purposes and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as Other (Income)/Expense. Conversely, unrealized gains/losses on the U.S. Dollar and Euro interest rate swaps are designated as effective hedges and are included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income/(Loss) and the corresponding payables are included in other current liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all restrictive covenants related to its long-term obligations

Guarantees and Security

All obligations under the senior secured credit agreement, the Senior Toggle Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes (together, the “notes”) are unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Company’s existing U.S. wholly-owned subsidiaries, other than the Company’s Puerto Rico subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and the guarantees of those obligations, are secured by substantially all of the following assets of the Company and each guarantor, subject to certain exceptions:

 

   

a pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the Company and 100% of the equity interests directly held by the Company and each guarantor in any wholly-owned material subsidiary of the Company or any guarantor (which pledge, in the case of any non-U.S. subsidiary of a U.S. subsidiary, will not include more than 65% of the voting stock of such non-U.S. subsidiary); and

 

   

a security interest in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and of each guarantor, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Debt Covenants

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

The senior credit facility and indentures governing the Senior Toggle Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes also contain change of control provisions and certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default. As of March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all covenants related to its long-term obligations. The Company’s long-term debt obligations do not contain any financial maintenance covenants.

Subject to certain exceptions, the senior credit agreement and the indentures governing the notes will permit the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, including secured indebtedness. None of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries or Puerto Rico subsidiaries is a guarantor of the loans or notes.

As market conditions warrant and subject to the Company’s contractual restrictions and liquidity position, we, the Company’s affiliates and/or the Company’s major equity holders, including Blackstone and its affiliates, may from time to time repurchase the Company’s outstanding debt securities, including the Senior Toggle Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes and/or the Company’s outstanding bank loans in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender or otherwise. Any such repurchases may be funded by incurring new debt, including additional borrowings under the Company’s existing credit facility. Any new debt may also be secured debt. We may also use available cash on the Company’s balance sheet. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. Further, any such purchases may result in the Company’s acquiring and retiring a substantial amount of any particular series, with the attendant reduction in the trading liquidity of any such series.

 

40


Under the indentures governing the notes, the Company’s ability to engage in certain activities such as incurring certain additional indebtedness, making certain investments and paying certain dividends is tied to ratios based on Adjusted EBITDA (which is defined as “EBITDA” in the indentures).

Adjusted EBITDA is based on the definitions in the Company’s indentures, is not defined under U.S. GAAP, and is subject to important limitations. We have included the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA for the period presented below as Adjusted EBITDA is the covenant compliance measure used in certain covenants under the indentures governing the notes, particularly those governing debt incurrence and restricted payments. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

In calculating Adjusted EBITDA, we add back certain non-cash, non-recurring and other items that are included in the definitions of EBITDA and consolidated net income as required in the indentures governing the notes. Adjusted EBITDA, among other things:

 

   

does not include non-cash, stock-based employee compensation expense and certain other non-cash charges;

 

   

does not include cash and non-cash restructuring, severance and relocation costs incurred to realize future cost savings and enhance the Company’s operations;

 

   

adds back noncontrolling interest expense, which represents noncontrolling investors’ ownership of certain of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and is, therefore, not available to us; and

 

   

includes estimated cost savings which have not yet been fully reflected in the Company’s results.

The Company’s Adjusted EBITDA for the last twelve months ended March 31, 2011 based on the definitions in the Company’s indentures is calculated as follows:

Inter-company loans are between Catalent entities and do not reflect the ongoing results of the companies trade operations. These inter-company foreign exchange gains and losses were offset by $0.1 million of unrealized losses from our interest rate swap derivative agreements.

Interest Risk Management

A portion of the debt used to finance the Company’s operations is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. We may use various hedging strategies and derivative financial instruments to create an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate assets and liabilities. The primary interest rate exposure as of March 31, 2011 is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and Europe, especially USD LIBOR and EURIBOR interest rates. We currently use interest rate swaps as the derivative instruments in these hedging strategies. The derivatives used to manage the risk associated with the Company’s floating USD LIBOR and EURIBOR rate debt were designated as effective cash flow hedges. The derivative used to manage the risk associated with the Company’s floating TIBOR (Tokyo inter-bank Domestic Yen Offered rate) rate debt is an effective economic hedge but is not designated as an effective cash flow hedge for financial reporting purposes.

Currency Risk Management

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the EUR-USD exchange rate on its investments in foreign operations in Europe. While the Company does not actively hedge against changes in foreign currency, we have mitigated the exposure of our investments in our European operations by denominating a portion of our debt in Euros. At March 31, 2011, the Company had Euro denominated debt outstanding of $662.3 million that qualifies as a hedge of a net investment in foreign operations. For non-derivatives designated and qualifying as net investment hedges, the effective portion of the translation gains or losses are reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. During the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded $82.9 million as a loss within cumulative translation adjustment. The net accumulated gain of this net investment as of March 31, 2011 included within Other Comprehensive Income was approximately $25.7 million. Amounts are reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

Periodically, we may utilize forward currency exchange contracts to manage the Company’s exposures to the variability of cash flows primarily related to the foreign exchange rate changes of future foreign currency transaction costs. In addition, we may utilize foreign currency forward contracts to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities. Currently, we do not utilize foreign currency exchange contracts. We expect to continue to evaluate hedging opportunities for foreign currency in the future.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business since June 30, 2010 with respect to the contractual obligations disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Other than operating leases, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2011.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations as a result of certain market risks. These market risks primarily relate to changes in interest rates associated with our long-term debt obligations and foreign exchange rate changes. We utilize derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate swaps, in order to mitigate risk associated with our variable rate debt.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage the economic effect of variable rate interest obligations associated with our floating rate term loans and so that the interest payable on the term loans effectively becomes fixed at a certain rate, thereby reducing the impact of future interest rate changes on our future interest expense. As of March 31, 2011, we had four interest rate swap agreements that have the economic effect of modifying the variable interest obligations associated with our floating rate term loans due in April and May 2013. These agreements include two U.S dollar-denominated, one Euro-denominated and one Yen-denominated interest rate swap agreements.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had four outstanding interest rate derivatives, three of which were effective March 31, 2011 with a combined notional value of $760.0 million and €240.0 million. These instruments are designated for financial accounting purposes as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Amounts reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. In addition, the Company has a Japanese Yen interest rate swap which is economically effective but is not designated as an effective hedge for financial reporting and is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as Other (Income)/Expense.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

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

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in November 2006, the Company, along with several pharmaceutical companies, has been named in civil lawsuits filed by individuals allegedly injured by their use of the prescription acne medication Amnesteem®, a branded generic form of isotretinoin, and in some instances of isotretinoin products made and/or sold by other firms as well. Currently, the Company is a named defendant in one hundred and ninety-nine pending isotretinoin lawsuits. Plaintiffs allege that they suffer from inflammatory bowel disease and other disorders as a result of their ingestion of Amnesteem. The geographic distribution of these one hundred and ninety-nine lawsuits is as follows: one in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina that has been transferred to the Accutane® (Isotretinoin) federal Multi-District Litigation (“Accutane MDL”) in the Middle District of Florida; two in the Court of Common Pleas, Washington County, Pennsylvania; and one hundred ninety-six in the Superior Court, Atlantic County, New Jersey. The New Jersey cases and several of the other cases have been brought by a consortium of plaintiffs’ law firms, including Seeger Weiss. The following discussion contains more detail about the lawsuits.

One hundred ninety-six lawsuits are pending in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Atlantic County by individual plaintiffs who claim to have ingested Amnesteem, and, in some cases, one or more competing branded generic isotretinoin products, including Sotret® (Ranbaxy) and/or Claravis® (Barr), as well as Accutane (the pioneer isotretinoin product sold by Hoffmann-La Roche). Seventy-two of these cases allegedly involve the use of both Accutane and one or more of the branded generic forms of isotretinoin. Such cases, which include one or more Roche entities as defendants, are filed as part of the New Jersey consolidated mass tort proceeding set up in 2005 for all Accutane lawsuits pending in New Jersey state courts. The remaining one hundred and twenty-four cases do not involve the use of Accutane, but allegedly involve the use of one or more branded generic isotretinoin products, including Amnesteem. These cases are not part of the Accutane mass tort litigation; these non-mass tort, generics-only cases have been consolidated for discovery purposes but not for trial. All one hundred ninety-six of the cases pending in New Jersey, both mass tort and non-mass tort, are assigned to the same judge. In addition to the Company, these lawsuits name the pharmaceutical companies whose respective isotretinoin products each plaintiff allegedly ingested.

Two lawsuits involving only Amnesteem use are pending in the Court of Common Pleas, Washington, County, Pennsylvania. One lawsuit was filed in the General Court of Justice, Superior Court Division, Durham County, North Carolina, but was removed to the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, Durham Division. Pursuant to a tolling agreement, the case had been dismissed without prejudice pending the outcome of the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit’s review of the decision of the Accutane MDL Court to exclude plaintiff’s general causation expert. On August 26, 2008, the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the exclusion of plaintiff’s expert, and a subsequent petition for rehearing was denied. Plaintiffs have since re-filed the case in the Middle District of North Carolina and the Company successfully moved to transfer the case to the Accutane MDL in the Middle District of Florida.

One lawsuit appearing to involve only Amnesteem use was served on the Company in February 2009 and had been pending in the District Court of Bowie County, Texas. This plaintiff ultimately dismissed his Texas lawsuit, shortly after filing a new lawsuit in New Jersey, and this New Jersey lawsuit is included among the above-referenced one hundred and twenty-four consolidated non-mass tort cases.

One lawsuit allegedly involving Amnesteem, Claravis and Accutane ingestions had been filed in the Circuit Court, Cook County, Illinois. The Company was dismissed from the suit without prejudice in June 2010.

One lawsuit allegedly involving Amnesteem and Claravis filed in the Superior Court, Atlantic County, New Jersey was dismissed with prejudice on September 17, 2010.

One lawsuit allegedly involving Amnesteem filed in the Superior Court, Atlantic County, New Jersey was dismissed with prejudice on November 10, 2010 and another lawsuit allegedly involving Amnesteem filed in the Superior Court, Atlantic County, New Jersey was dismissed with prejudice on December 29, 2010.

Although expressed in various terms, generally speaking, all one hundred and ninety-nine lawsuits set forth some or all of the standard array of product liability claims, including strict liability for defective design, strict liability for failure to warn, negligence (in both design and warnings), fraud and misrepresentation, and breach of warranty. The lawsuits seek unspecified amounts of compensatory and punitive damages. The Company believes it has valid defenses to these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend them.

From time to time, we may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active

pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of which could be significant. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against such other litigation and do not currently believe that the outcome of any such other litigation will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.

From time to time, we receive subpoenas or requests for information from various government agencies, including from state attorneys general and the U.S. Department of Justice relating to the business practices of customers or suppliers. We generally respond to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred by us. We expect to incur additional costs in the future in connection with existing and future requests.
