Item 8.01. Other Events
In connection with the Hospira Infusion Systems business that ICU Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired in February 2017 from Pfizer, Inc., on April 18, 2017, the Company received a grand jury subpoena issued by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, in connection with an investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice, Antitrust Division. The subpoena calls for production of documents regarding the manufacturing, selling, pricing and shortages of intravenous ("IV") solutions, including saline, sold by the Company and communications with competitors regarding the same. In addition, the New York Attorney General has previously requested that the Company provide information regarding business practices in the IV solutions industry. Both of these investigations relate primarily to time periods prior to the Company’s ownership of the IV solutions business. The Company will fully cooperate with the U.S. Department of Justice and the New York Attorney General on these investigations.
