HOLOGIC, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(all tabular amounts in millions, except number of shares, which are reflected in thousands, and per share data)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (“Hologic” or the “Company”) presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”(the “SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended September 29, 201828, 2019 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 20, 2018.27, 2019. In the opinion of management, the financial statements and notes contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)accruals and all other necessary adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make significant 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 periods. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate. Operating results for the three and six months ended March 30, 201928, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year ending September 26, 2020.
COVID-19 Considerations
The pandemic caused by the spread of the novel strain of coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption in the markets the Company sells its products into, primarily the U.S., Europe and Asia-Pacific. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the spread of COVID-19 has negatively impacted business activity globally. As healthcare systems respond to the increasing demands of managing COVID-19 and the resulting economic uncertainties, governments around the world have imposed measures designed to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, and individuals are responding to the fears of contracting COVID-19. In particular, elective procedures and exams are being delayed or cancelled, there has been a significant reduction in physician office visits, and hospitals are postponing or cancelling capital purchases as well as limiting or eliminating services. These responses have had, and the Company believes will continue to have, a negative impact on the Company's operating results and cash flows. While the effects of COVID-19 and the associated economic disruptions were felt primarily in the second half of March in many of the Company's end-markets and earlier in Asia, primarily China, the Company expects the effect on its financial results in the third fiscal quarter to be significant. While the Company believes the impact on its business will begin to lessen in the fourth quarter and continue to do so in subsequent periods the impacts on these periods could be significant.
The Company's belief is that COVID-19’s adverse impact on its operating results, cash flows and financial condition will be primarily driven by: the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic; the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the U.S. and international healthcare system, the U.S. economy and worldwide economy; and the timing, scope and effectiveness of U.S. and international governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions.
In addition to adversely affecting demand for the Company's products, COVID-19 and associated economic disruptions could have an adverse impact on the Company's supply chains and distribution systems, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that it, other businesses and governments are taking. A reduction or interruption in any of the Company's manufacturing processes could have a material adverse effect on its business.
The Company expects that the uncertainty surrounding world financial markets and deteriorating worldwide macroeconomic conditions resulting from the pandemic have caused and may continue to cause the purchasers of medical equipment to decrease their medical equipment purchasing and procurement activities. Additionally, the pandemic has caused and may further cause constrictions in world credit markets that have and could cause its customers to experience increased difficulty in paying their existing obligations to the Company or in securing the financing necessary to purchase the Company's products. Economic uncertainty has and may continue to result in cost-conscious consumers focusing on acute care rather than wellness, which would also continue to adversely affect demand for the Company's products.

The terms of the Company's credit facilities require it to satisfy certain financial covenants. Should the Company's future business and operations be significantly impaired by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions over an extended period of time or otherwise, the Company cannot assure that it will remain in compliance with its current financial covenants. In such event, the factors that adversely affect the Company's business may also similarly adversely affect the capital markets, and the Company cannot assure that it would be able to negotiate alternative covenants or alternative financing on favorable terms if at all. The Company's failure to comply with the covenants contained in its credit facilities, including financial covenants, could result in an event of default, which could materially and adversely affect its results of operations and financial condition.
As the Company assessed the potential longer term economic and capital market uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, at the end of March 2020 the Company suspended its accounts receivable securitization program and borrowed $750.0 million under its revolver. The Company used $250.0 million of these proceeds to pay off all amounts then owed under its accounts receivable securitization agreement, and retained the balance as cash reserve. As of March 28, 2019.2020 the Company had another $750.0 million available under its revolver.
In response to the negative impact of COVID-19 on the Company's business, in April 2020 it initiated cost-cutting measures, which included not only reducing discretionary and variable spend, such as travel, marketing programs and the use of contractors, consultants and temporary help, but the Company also implemented employee furloughs, salary cuts primarily in the U.S., reduced hours and in certain instances employee terminations. Further, the Company has shut down certain manufacturing facilities temporarily and implemented reduced work-week schedules in response to lower near-term demand for many of its products. These actions, as they relate to the Company's manufacturing operations, are expected to reduce the efficiency of its manufacturing operations and could further adversely affect its results of operations. Future cost savings initiatives and other measures related to stopping the spread of COVID-19 could also adversely affect the Company's research and development activities, including its clinical trials.
The Company has also taken measures to ensure the safety of its employees and to comply with governmental orders. These measures could require that the Company's employees refrain from traveling to their normal workplace for extended periods of time, which in turn could result in a decrease in its commercial and marketing activities.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the FDA granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for the Company's Panther Fusion SARS-CoV-2 assay for testing for the COVID-19 virus. The Company is in the process of completing development of a second SARS-CoV-2 assay which will run on its more widely distributed Panther instrument. The Company has installed more than 1,800 Panther instruments, which are used by clinical laboratories around the world. Subject to obtaining the required authorizations, the Company expects to introduce the assay in May. However, the Company can give no assurance that this assay will be developed and authorized on a timely basis, if at all, or if introduced, will be commercially successful.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"(the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which was subsequently amended. The Company adopted this standard as of September 30, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not complete as of September 30, 2018. The Company's adoption of ASC 606 is more fully described in Note 2.
In August 2018, the SEC issued the final rule on Regulation S-X, Rule 3-04 (Rule 3-04) requiring entities to disclose changes in stockholders equity in the form of a reconciliation for the current and comparative year-to-date interim periods, with subtotals for each interim period. The Company adopted Rule 3-04 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740).2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), referred to as ASC 842. The purpose of ASU 2016-02 is to increase the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, including those previously classified as operating leases under GAAP, and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASC 842, as amended, is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and was effective for the Company in fiscal 2020. The Company adopted the standard using the transition method provided by ASC Update No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. Under this method, the Company applied the new leasing rules on September 29, 2019, rather than at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Prior periods were presented in accordance with the existing lease guidance under ASC 840.
Upon transition, the Company applied the package of practical expedients permitted under ASC 842 transition guidance to its entire lease portfolio at September 29, 2019. As a result, the Company was not required to reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the classification of any expired or existing leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases. Furthermore, as a lessee the Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components together for the majority of its leases. As a result, for these applicable classes of underlying assets, the Company accounted for each separate lease component and the non-lease components associated with that lease component as a single lease component.
Under ASC 842 as a lessor, in instances where the Company places instruments (or equipment) at customer sites as part of its reagent rental contracts, certain of the Company's reagent rental contracts could be classified as sales-type leases. Under sales-type leases, there is accelerated expense recognition for the cost of the placed equipment and potentially up-front revenue in the event there are fixed rental payments, a portion of which would be allocated to the equipment. The Company does not

expect to have a significant amount of sales-type leases. Under ASC 840, all instruments placed under the Company's reagent rental programs were classified as operating leases and instrument revenue and cost were recognized over the term of the contract.
Upon adoption of the new lease standard, the Company recognized operating lease right-of-use assets and finance lease right-of-use assets of $91.7 million and $10.2 million, respectively, and corresponding operating lease liabilities and finance lease liabilities of $96.6 million and $21.0 million, respectively. This includes recording the Company’s existing capital lease as a finance lease at transition. In addition, the Company derecognized $32.6 million of property, plant and equipment and $35.2 million of finance lease obligations recorded in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities associated with two previously existing build-to-suit lease arrangements. Right-of-use assets and corresponding liabilities for these build-to-suit lease arrangements are included within the total amount recognized upon adoption of the new lease standard. The Company’s adoption of ASC 842 is more fully described in Note 3.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The guidance requires companiescertain changes to recognize the income tax effectspresentation of intercompany sales and transfers of assets, other than inventory,hedge accounting in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) infinancial statements and also simplifies the period in whichapplication of hedge accounting and expands the transfer occurs.strategies that qualify for hedge accounting. The Company adopted the standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 (see Note 10).
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flow (Topic 230). The guidance reduces diversity in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the Statements of Cash Flows. Certain of ASU 2016-15 requirements are as follows: 1) cash payments for debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities, 2) contingent consideration payments made soon after a business combination should be classified as cash outflows for investing activities and cash payment made thereafter should be classified as cash outflows for financing up to the amount of the contingent consideration liability recognized at the acquisition date with any excess classified as operating activities, 3) cash proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims should be classified on the basis of the nature of the loss, 4) cash proceeds from the settlement of Corporate-Owned Life Insurance (COLI) Policies should be classified as cash inflows from investing activities and cash payments for premiums on COLI policies may be classified as cash outflows for investing activities, operating activities, or a combination of investing and operating activities, and 5) cash paid to a tax authority by an employer when withholding shares from an employee's award for tax-withholding purposes should be classified as cash outflows for financing activities. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2019.2020. The adoption of ASU 2016-152017-12 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.



Subsequent Events Consideration
The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence for certain estimates or to identify matters that may require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. There was onewere no material recognized or unrecognized subsequent event recorded inevents affecting the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended March 30, 2019. The Company entered into a Settlement and License Agreement with Enzo Life Sciences, Inc. on April 16, 2019 and recorded a $10.5 million settlement charge as of March 30, 2019 (see Note 8). There were no material unrecognized subsequent events recorded in the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended March 30, 2019.28, 2020.

(2) Revenue


In May 2014, the FASB issued ASC 606. The Company adopted the standard, which amendedaccounts for revenue pursuant to ASC Topic 605, Update No. 2014-09, Revenue Recognition (ASC 605), as of September 30, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for contracts that were not complete as of September 30, 2018. Under this method, the Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard to its open contractsfrom Contracts with Customer (ASC 606) and recorded an adjustment to decrease the opening balance of accumulated deficit within stockholders' equity by $6.4 million, which is net of taxes of $2.4 million, as of September 30, 2018 (the first day of fiscal 2019). The cumulative effect adjustment was primarily due to the Company applying the principles of ASC 606 to contracts for which the Company had deferred revenue as of September 29, 2018 for collectability uncertainty and providing extended payment terms resulting in the fee not being fixed or determinable under ASC 605. Under ASC 606, revenue from certain arrangements may be recognized earlier than under ASC 605 as a result of the ability to apply additional judgment in evaluating collectability and the elimination of the requirement to assess whether a fee is fixed or determinable, specifically as it relates to providing customers with extended payment terms. Results for reporting periods beginning September 30, 2018 and after are presented in accordance with ASC 606. Prior period results were not adjusted and will continue to be reported in accordance with legacy GAAP requirements of ASC 605. As the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s revenue recorded in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2019, transitional disclosures have not been presented.

The Company generates revenue from the sale of its products, primarily medical imaging systems and related components and software, diagnostic tests and assays, surgical and interventional breast disposable products and until December 28, 2019 medical aesthetic treatment systems, diagnostic tests/assays and surgical disposable products, and related services, which arewere primarily support and maintenance services on its medical imaging systems and aesthetic treatment systems, and to a lesser extent installation, training and repairs. The Company's products are sold primarily through a direct sales force, and within international markets, there is more reliance on distributors and resellers. Revenue is recorded net of sales tax.

The Company considers revenue to be earned when all of the following criteria are met: the Company has a contract with a customer that creates enforceable rights and obligations; promised products or services are identified; the transaction price, or the amount the Company expects to receive, including an estimate of uncertain amounts subject to a constraint to ensure revenue is not recognized in an amount that would result in a significant reversal upon resolution of the uncertainty, is determinable; and the Company has transferred control of the promised items to the customer. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in the contract. The transaction price for the contract is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods and services expected to be transferred. A contract's transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, control of the distinct good or service is transferred. Transfer of control for the Company's products is generally at shipment or delivery, depending on contractual terms, but occurs when title and risk of loss transfers to the customer. customer which represents the

point in time when the customer obtains the use of and substantially all of the remaining benefit of the product. As such, the Company's performance obligation related to product sales is satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from support and maintenance contracts, extended warranty and professional services for installation, training and repairs is recognized over time based on the period contracted or as the services are performed as these methods represent a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods and services.

The Company recognizes

a receivable when it has an unconditional right to payment, and paymentpayment. Payment terms are typically 30 days in the U.S. but may be longer in international markets. The Company treats shipping and handling costs performed after a customer obtains control of the good as a fulfillment cost and records these costs within costs of product revenue when the corresponding revenue is recognized. The Company's performance obligation related to product sales is satisfied at a point in time. Revenue from support and maintenance contracts, extended warranty and professional services for installation, training and repair is recognized over time based on the period contracted or as the services are performed.


The Company also places instruments (or equipment) at customer sites but retains title to the instrument. The customer has the right to use the instrument for a period of time, and the Company recovers the cost of providing the instrument through the sales of disposables, namely tests and assays in Diagnostics and handpieces in GYN Surgical. These types of agreements include an embedded lease, which is generally an operating lease, for the right to use an instrument and no instrument revenue is recognized at the time of instrument delivery. The Company recognizes a portion of the revenue allocated to the embedded lease concurrent with the sale of disposables over the term of the agreement.


Some of the Company's contracts have multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation using its best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The Company determines its best estimate of stand-alone selling price using average selling prices over 3 to 12-month12 month periods of data depending on the products or nature of the services coupled with current market considerations. If the product or service does not have a history of sales or if sales volume is not sufficient, the Company relies on prices set by its pricing committees or applicable marketing department adjusted for expected discounts.


Variable Consideration


The Company exercises judgment in estimating variable consideration, which includes volume discounts, sales rebates, product returns and other adjustments. These amounts are recorded as a reduction to revenue and classified as a current liability. The Company bases its estimates for volume discounts and sales rebates on historical information to the extent it is reasonable to be used as a predictive tool of expected future rebates. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company applies judgment in constraining the estimated variable consideration due to factors that may cause reversal of revenue recognized. The Company evaluates constraints based on its historical and projected experience with similar customer contracts.
The Company's contracts typically do not provide for product returns.the right to return product. In general, estimates of variable consideration and constraints are not material to the Company's financial statements.


Remaining Performance Obligations


As of March 30, 2019,28, 2020, the estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied was approximately $322.8$583.5 million. This remaining performance obligation primarily relates to extended warranty and support and maintenance obligations in the Company's Breast Health and Skeletal Health reportable segments. The Company expects to recognize approximately 37%23% of this amount as revenue in 2019,2020, 32% in 2021, 24% in 2020, 20%2022, 14% in 2021, 12% in 2022,2023, and 6%7% thereafter. The Company has applied the practical expedient to not include remaining performance obligations related to contracts with original expected durations of one year or less in the amounts above.


Contract Assets and Liabilities


The Company discloses accounts receivable separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their net realizable value. Contract assets primarily relate to the Company's conditional right to consideration for work completed but not billed at the reporting date. Contract assets at the beginning and end of the period, as well as the changes in the balance, were immaterial.


Contract liabilities primarily relate to payments received from customers in advance of performance under the contract. The Company records a contract liability, or deferred revenue, when it has an obligation to provide service, and to a much lesser extent product, to the customer and payment is received or due in advance of performance. Deferred revenue primarily relates to support and maintenance contracts and extended warranty obligations within the Company's Breast Health Medical Aesthetics and Skeletal Health reportable segments.segments and until recently the divested Medical Aesthetics segment. Contract liabilities are classified as other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognized $40.1revenue of $26.2 million

(3) Leases
Lessee Activity - Leases where Hologic is the Lessee

The majority of the Company's facilities are occupied under operating lease arrangements with various expiration dates through 2035, some of which include options to extend the term of the lease, and some of which include options to terminate the lease within one year. The Company has operating leases for office space, land, warehouse and manufacturing space, vehicles and certain equipment. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are generally not recorded on the balance sheet and expense for these leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases executed in fiscal 2020 and later, the Company accounts for the lease components and the non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company's leases have remaining lease terms of one year to approximately 15 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to 20 years and some include options to terminate early. These options have been included in the determination of the lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company does not have any leases that include residual value guarantees.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present at the inception of an arrangement. The right-of-use assets and related liabilities for operating leases are included in other assets, accrued expenses, and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 28, 2020. The Company's lease classified as a capital lease in fiscal 2019 is now classified as finance lease on the balance sheet as of March 28, 2020.
Right-of-use assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease contract. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As such, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, which is the estimated rate that would be incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The weighted average discount rate utilized on the Company's operating and finance lease liabilities as of March 28, 2020 was 2.59%.

Lessor Activity - Leases where Hologic is the date of adoption. For contractsLessor

Certain assets, primarily diagnostics instruments, are leased to customers under contractual arrangements that were modified priortypically include an operating or sales-type lease as well as performance obligations for reagents and other consumables. These contractual arrangements are subject to the adoption date, the Company elected to present the aggregate effect of all contract modificationstermination provisions which are evaluated in determining the transaction pricelease term for lease accounting purposes. Sales-type leases are not significant. Contract terms vary by customer and may include options to terminate the contract or options to extend the contract. Where instruments are provided under operating lease arrangements, some portion or the entire lease revenue may be variable and subject to subsequent non-lease component (e.g., reagent) sales. The allocation of revenue between the lease and non-lease components is based on stand-alone selling prices. Lease revenue represented approximately 3% of the Company’s consolidated revenue for both the three and six months ended March 28, 2020.


In connection with the disposition of the Medical Aesthetics business, the Company entered into an agreement to sublease to Cynosure its U.S. headquarters and manufacturing location. As such, the Company derecognized $10.2 million for the allocation toright-of-use asset for the satisfiedfinance lease, included in property, plant and unsatisfied performance obligations.equipment, and recorded a lease receivable, which is $20.6 million as of March 28, 2020.

The Company applies a practical expedient to expense costs as incurred for costs to obtain a contract with a customer when the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs solely comprise sales commissions and typically the commissions are incurred at the time of shipment of product and upon billings for support and maintenance contracts.

2018 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On December 17, 2018, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries refinanced its term loan and revolving credit facility by entering into an Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement as of December 17, 2018 (the "2018 Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, and certain other lenders. The 2018 Credit Agreement amended and restated the Company's prior credit and guaranty agreement dated as of October 3, 2017 ("2017(the "2017 Credit Agreement").

The credit facilities under the 2018 Credit Agreement consist of:

A $1.5 billion secured term loan to the Company ("2018 Amended Term Loan") with a maturity date of December 17, 2023; and
A secured revolving credit facility ("2018 Amended Revolver"; together with the 2018 Amended Term Loan, the "Amended Credit Facilities") under which the Company may borrow up to $1.5 billion, subject to certain sublimits, with a maturity date of December 17, 2023.

The Company initially borrowed $350 million under the 2018 Amended Revolver. This initial borrowing, together with the net proceeds of the 2018 Amended Term Loan, were used to repay the amounts outstanding under the term loan and revolving credit facility under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the 2018 Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's option and in each case plus an applicable margin as follows:

2018 Amended Term Loan: at the Base Rate, Eurocurrency Rate or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate, 
2018 Amended Revolver: if funded in U.S. dollars, the Base Rate, Eurocurrency Rate, or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate, and, if funded in an alternative currency, the Eurocurrency Rate; and if requested under the swing line sublimit, the Base Rate.

The applicable margin to the Base Rate, Eurocurrency Rate, or LIBOR Daily Floating Rate is subject to specified changes depending on the total net leverage ratio as defined in the 2018 Credit Agreement. The borrowings of the 2018 Amended Term Loan initially bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Eurocurrency Rate (i.e., the LIBOR rate) plus an Applicable Rate, which was equal to 1.375%. as of March 28, 2020. The borrowings of the 2018 Amended Revolver initially bear interest at a rate equal to the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus an Applicable Rate equal to 1.375%. The Company is also required to pay a quarterly commitment fee calculated on the undrawn committed amount available under the 2018 Amended Revolver.


The Company is required to make scheduled principal payments under the 2018 Amended Term Loan in increasing amounts ranging from $9.375 million per three-month period commencing with the three-month period ending on December 27, 2019 to $28.125 million per three-month period commencing with the three-month period ending on December 29, 2022 and ending on September 29, 2023. The remaining balance of the 2018 Amended Term Loan after the

scheduled principal payments, which is $1.2 billion as of March 30, 2019, and any amounts outstanding under the 2018 Amended Revolver are due at maturity. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2018 Credit Agreement, the Company may be required to make certain mandatory prepayments from the net proceeds of specified types of asset sales (subject to certain reinvestment rights), debt issuances and insurance recoveries (subject to certain reinvestment rights). These mandatory prepayments are required to be applied by the Company, first, to the 2018 Amended Term Loan, second, to any outstanding amount under any Swing Line Loans, third, to the 2018 Amended Revolver, fourth to prepay any outstanding reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit and fifth, to cash collateralize any Letters of Credit. Subject to certain limitations, the Company may voluntarily prepay any of the 2018 Credit Facilities without premium or penalty.

The 2018 Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants customarily applicable to senior secured credit facilities, including covenants restricting the ability of the Company, subject to negotiated exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness and grant additional liens on its assets, engage in mergers or acquisitions or dispose of assets, enter into sale-leaseback transactions, pay dividends or make other distributions, voluntarily prepay other indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliated persons, make investments, and change the nature of their businesses. In addition, the 2018 Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios. The 2018 Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default, including payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross defaults and an event of default upon a change of control of the Company.

Borrowings are secured by first-priority liens on, and a first-priority security interest in, substantially all of the assets of the Company, with certain exceptions. For example, borrowings under the 2018 Credit Agreement are not secured by those accounts receivable that are transferred to the special purpose entity under the Company's Accounts Receivable Securitization program. The 2018 Credit Agreement contains total net leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio financial covenants measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. The total net leverage ratio covenant was 5.00:1.00 beginning on the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2018, and remains as such until it decreases to 4.50:1.00 for the quarter ending June 25, 2022. The interest coverage ratio covenant was 3.75:1.00 beginning on the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2018, and remains as such for each quarter thereafter. The total net leverage ratio is defined as the ratio of the Company's consolidated net debt as of the quarter end to its consolidated adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the 2018 Credit Agreement) for the four-fiscal quarter period ending on the measurement date. The interest coverage ratio is defined as the ratio of the Company's consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the prior four-fiscal quarter period ending on the measurement date to adjusted consolidated cash interest expense (as defined in the 2018 Credit Agreement) for the same measurement period. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 30, 2019.

The Company evaluated the 2018 Credit Agreement for derivatives pursuant to ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and identified embedded derivatives that required bifurcation as the features are not clearly and closely related to the host instrument. The embedded derivatives were a default provision, which could require additional interest payments, and a provision requiring contingent payments to compensate the lenders for changes in tax deductions. The Company determined that the fair value of these embedded derivatives was nominal as of March 30, 2019.

Pursuant to ASC 470, Debt (ASC 470), the accounting related to entering into the 2018 Credit Agreement and using the proceeds to pay off the 2017 Credit Agreement was evaluated on a creditor-by-creditor basis to determine whether each transaction should be accounted for as a modification or extinguishment. Certain creditors under the 2017 Credit Agreement did not participate in this refinancing transaction and ceased being creditors of the Company. As a result, the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. For the remainder of the creditors, this transaction was accounted for as a modification because on a creditor-by-creditor basis the present value of the cash flows between the two debt instruments before and after the transaction was less than 10%. We accounted for the amendments pursuantPursuant to ASC 470, subtopic 50-40, and third-party costs of $0.8 million related to this transaction were recorded as interest expense and $1.9 million was recorded as a reduction to debt representing deferred issuance costs and debt discount for fees paid directly to the lenders.

The proceeds under the 2017 Credit Agreement of $1.8 billion werewhich was used among other things, to pay off the Term Loan of $1.32 billion and the Revolver thenamounts outstanding under the Company's Prior Credit Agreement.asset securitization agreement, in order to have sufficient cash on hand. The Company has another $750 million available under its revolver as of March 28, 2020.

Pursuant to ASC 470, the accounting for the 2017 Credit Agreement was evaluated consistent with that described above. As a result, the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 related to those

creditors under the Prior Credit Agreement who ceased being creditors under the 2017 Credit Agreement For the remainder of the creditors, this transaction was accounted for as a modification and pursuant to ASC 470, subtopic 50-40, third-party costs of $1.7 million related to this transaction were recorded as interest expense.


Interest expense, weighted average interest rate, and interest rate at the end of period under the 2018 and 2017 Credit Agreements in fiscal 2019, and the 2017 Credit Agreement in fiscal 2018 were as follows:

Senior Notes


On October 10, 2017, the Company completed a private placement of $350 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.375% Senior Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Senior Notes") at an offering price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Senior Notes.


On January 19, 2018, the Company completed a private placement of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, allocated between (i) an additional $600 million aggregate principal amounts of its 2025 Senior Notes pursuant to a supplement to the indenture governing the Company's existing 2025 Senior Notes at an offering price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Senior Notes and (ii) $400 million aggregate principal amounts of its 4.625% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "2028 Senior Notes") at an offering price of 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Senior Notes.

2022 Senior Notes

At December 30, 2017, the Company had 5.250% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Senior Notes”) outstanding that bore interest at the rate of 5.250% per year, payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year. The Company used the net proceeds of the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2028 Senior Notes offering in January 2018, plus available cash, to redeem in full the 2022 Senior Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion on February 15, 2018 at an aggregate redemption price of $1.04 billion, including a make-whole provision payment $37.7 million. Since the Company planned to use the proceeds from the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2028 Senior Notes offering to redeem the 2022 Senior Notes, the Company evaluated the accounting for this transaction under ASC 470 to determine modification versus extinguishment accounting on a creditor-by-creditor basis. Certain 2022 Senior Note holders either did not participate in this refinancing transaction or reduced their holdings and these transactions were accounted for as extinguishments. As a result, the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 of $44.9 million, which comprised pro-rata amounts of the make-whole provision premium payment, debt discount and debt issuance costs. For the remaining 2022 Senior Notes holders who participated in the refinancing, these transactions were accounted for as modifications because on a creditor-by-creditor basis the present value of the cash flows between the debt instruments before and after the transaction was less than 10%. In the second quarter of fiscal 2018, the Company recorded a portion of the transaction expenses of $2.6 million to interest expense pursuant to ASC 470, subtopic 50-40. The remaining debt issuance costs of $1.5 million and debt discount of $1.5 million related to the modified debt were allocated between the 2025 Senior Notes and 2028 Senior Notes on a pro-rata basis, and will be amortized over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.


2025 Senior Notes


The total aggregate principal balance of 2025 Senior Notes is $950 million. The 2025 Senior Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain domestic subsidiaries and mature on October 15, 2025.


2028 Senior Notes
    
The aggregate principal balance of the 2028 Senior Notes is $400 million. The 2028 Senior Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain domestic subsidiaries and mature on February 1, 2028.

(7)(8) Derivatives
Interest Rate Cap - Cash Flow Hedge
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages its exposure to some of its interest rate risk through the use of interest rate caps, which are derivative financial instruments. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. For a derivative that is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") to the extent the derivative is effective at offsetting the changes in the cash flows being hedged until the hedged item affects earnings. To the extent there is any hedge ineffectiveness, changes in fair value relating to the ineffective portion are immediately recognized in earnings in other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income.Operations.
During fiscal 2017,2018, the Company entered into separate interest rate cap agreements with multiple counter-parties to help mitigate the interest rate volatility associated with the variable interest rate on amounts borrowed under the term loan feature of its credit facilities (see Note 6)7). Interest rate cap agreements provide the right to receive cash if the reference interest rate rises above a contractual rate. The aggregate premium paid for the interest rate cap agreements was $1.9 million, which was the initial fair value of the instruments recorded in the Company's financial statements.
During fiscal 2018, the Company entered into new separate interest rate cap agreements with multiple counter-parties to extend the expiration date of its hedges by an additional year. The aggregate premium paid for these interest rate cap agreements was $3.7 million, which was the initial fair value of the instruments recorded in the Company's financial statements.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company entered into newadditional separate interest rate cap agreements with multiple counter-parties to extend the expiration date of its hedges by an additional year. The aggregate premium paid for these interest cap agreements was $1.5 million, which was the initial fair value of the instruments recorded in the Company’s financial statements.    
The critical terms of the interest rate caps were designed to mirror the terms of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings under its Prior Credit Agreement, and Amended and Restated Credit Agreementthat has been amended multiple times, and therefore are highly effective at offsetting the cash flows being hedged. The Company designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges of the variability of the LIBOR-based interest payments on $1.0 billion of principal, which ended on December 28, 201827, 2019 for the contracts entered into in fiscal 2017,2018, and which will end on December 27, 2019 and December 23, 2020 for the interest rate cap agreements entered into in fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2019, respectively.2019.
As of March 30, 2019, the Company determined that the existence of hedge ineffectiveness, if any, was immaterial, and28, 2020, all changes in the fair value of the interest rate caps were recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of AOCI.

(Loss).
During the three and six months ended March 30, 201928, 2020 and March 31, 2018,30, 2019, the Company reclassified $0.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively and $0.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively and $0.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively from AOCI to the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the interest rate cap agreements. The Company expects to similarly reclassify a loss of approximately $3.6$1.1 million from AOCI to the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the next twelvenine months.
The aggregate fair value of these interest rate caps was $2.9$0.0 million and $7.7$0.1 million at March 30, 201928, 2020 and September 29, 2018,28, 2019, respectively, and is included in Prepaidprepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 34 “Fair Value Measurements” above for related fair value disclosures.
Interest Rate Swap - Cash Flow Hedge
In fiscal 2019, in order to hedge a portion of its variable rate debt beyond the contracted period under interest cap agreements, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract with an effective date of December 23, 2020 and a termination date of December 17, 2023. The notional amount of this swap is $1.0 billion. The interest rate swap effectively fixes the LIBOR component of the variable interest rate on $1.0 billion of the notional amount under the 2018 Credit Agreement at 1.23%. The critical terms of the interest rate swap are designed to mirror the terms of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings under its credit agreement and therefore are highly effective at offsetting the cash flows being hedged. The Company designated this derivative as a cash flow hedge of the variability of the LIBOR-based interest payments on $1.0 billion of principal. Therefore, changes in the fair value of the swap are recorded in AOCI. The fair value of this derivative was in a liability position of $22.9 million as of March 28, 2020.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts and Foreign Currency Option Contracts
The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign currency option contracts to mitigate certain operational exposures from the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such exposures result from the portion of the Company's operations that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Euro, the UK Pound, the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Chinese Yuan and the Japanese Yen. These foreign currency exchange contracts are entered into to support transactions made in the ordinary course of business and are not speculative in nature. The contracts are generally for periods of one year or less. The Company hasdid not electedelect hedge accounting for any of thethese forward foreign currency contracts it has executed;and foreign currency option contracts; however, the Company may seek to apply hedge accounting in future scenarios. The change in the fair value of these contracts is recognized directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net. During the three and six months ended March 28, 2020, for the forward foreign currency exchange contracts the

Company recorded net realized gains of $0.1 million in both periods from settling forward foreign currency exchange contracts and net unrealized gains of $2.6 million and $1.1 million, respectively, on the mark-to-market for its outstanding forward foreign currency contracts. During the three and six months ended March 30, 2019, the Company recorded net realized gains of $1.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively, from settling forward foreign currency contracts and net unrealized loss of $1.4 million and net realized gain of $2.0 million, respectively, on the mark-to-market for its outstanding forward foreign currency contracts. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2018,28, 2020, for the foreign currency option contracts the Company recorded net unrealized gains of $1.1 million and net unrealized losses of $0.4 million, respectively, on outstanding option contracts. During the three and six months ended March 28, 2020, for the foreign currency option contracts, the Company recorded net realized losses of $2.1$0.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively, from settling forward foreign currency contracts and unrealized losses of $1.7 million and $0.2$0.7 million, respectively, on the mark-to-market for its outstanding forward foreign currencyoption contracts.
As of March 30, 2019,28, 2020, the Company had outstanding forward foreign currency contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar of forecasted transactions denominated in the Euro, UK Pound, Australian dollar, Canadian Dollar, Chinese Yuan and Japanese Yen with an aggregate notional amount of $150.7$51.0 million. As of March 28, 2020, the Company had outstanding foreign currency option contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and are used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar of forecasted transactions denominated in the Euro and UK Pound with a notional amount of $80.6 million.

On November 6, 2015, the Company filed a suit against Minerva Surgical, Inc. (“Minerva”) in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that Minerva’s endometrial ablation device infringes U.S. Patent 6,872,183 (the '183 patent), U.S. Patent 8,998,898 and U.S. Patent 9,095,348 (the '348 patent). On January 25, 2016, the Company amended the complaint to include claims against Minerva for unfair competition, deceptive trade practices and tortious interference with business relationships. On February 5, 2016, the Company filed a second amended complaint to additionally allege that Minerva’s endometrial ablation device infringes U.S. Patent 9,247,989 (the '989 patent). On March 4, 2016, Minerva filed an answer and counterclaims against the Company, seeking declaratory judgment on the Company’s claims and asserting claims against the Company for unfair competition, deceptive trade practices, interference with contractual relationships, breach of contract and trade libel. On June 2, 2016, the Court denied the Company’s motion for a preliminary injunction on its patent claims and denied Minerva’s request for preliminary injunction related to the Company’s alleged false and deceptive statements regarding the Minerva product. On June 28, 2018, the Court granted the Company's summary judgment motions on infringement and no invalidity with respect to the ‘183 and ‘348 patents. The Court also granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment on assignor estoppel, which bars Minerva’s invalidity defenses or any reliance on collateral findings regarding invalidity from inter partes review proceedings. The Court also denied all of Minerva’s defenses, including its motions for summary judgment on invalidity, non-infringement, no willfulness, and no unfair competition.On July 27, 2018, after a two-week trial, a jury returned a verdict that: (1) awarded the Company $4.8 million in damages for Minerva’s infringement; (2) found that Minerva’s infringement was not willful; and (3) found for the Company regarding Minerva’s counterclaims. Damages will continuecontinued to accrue untilas Minerva ceasescontinues its infringing conduct. On February 26,May 2, 2019, the Court held a hearing regardingissued rulings that denied the parties' post-trial motions, including the Company's motion for a permanent injunction seeking to prohibit Minerva from selling infringing devices, all of which remain pending.devices. Both parties appealed the Court's rulings regarding the post-trial motions. On March 4, 2016, Minerva filed two2 petitions at the USPTO for inter partes review of the '348 patent. On September 12, 2016, the PTAB declined both petitions to review patentability of the ‘348'348 patent. On April 11, 2016, Minerva filed a petition for inter partes review of the '183 patent. On October 6, 2016, the PTAB granted the petition and instituted a review of the '183 patent. On December 15, 2017, the PTAB issued a final written decision invalidating all claims of the ‘183 patent. On February 9, 2018 the Company appealed this decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("Court of Appeals"). On April 19, 2019, the Court of Appeals affirmed the PTAB's final written decision regarding the '183 patent. On July 16, 2019, the Court of Appeals denied the Company’s petition for rehearing in the appeal regarding the '183 patent. On April 22, 2020, the Court of Appeals affirmed the district court’s summary judgment ruling in favor of the Company of no invalidity and infringement, and summary judgment that assignor estoppel bars Minerva from challenging the validity of the ‘348 patent. The Court of Appeals also denied the Company’s motion for a permanent injunction and ongoing royalties for infringement of the ‘183 patent. The Court of Appeals denied Minerva’s motion for no damages or, alternatively, a new trial.

On September 28 and October 2, 2017, the PTAB issued final written decisions in the two inter partes reviews finding that all of the challenged claims of the '197 patent are unpatentable. On November 29, 2017, Enzo appealed the PTAB decisions to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which appeals remain pending. Enzo, the Company and Grifols agreed to resolve all litigation among them, including matters involving the '197 patent, pursuant to the Settlement Agreement described above.

On October 3, 2016, Enzo filed an additional suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that products employing the Company's proprietary target capture technologies infringe U.S. Patent 6,221,581 (the '581 patent). The Court granted Enzo’s motion to file an amended complaint adding Grifols Diagnostic Solutions Inc. and Grifols, S.A. (“Grifols”) as parties on November 9, 2017. On October 4, 2017, the Company filed for inter partes review of the ‘581 patent with the USPTO based on Enzo’s asserted claims. On April 18, 2018, the USPTO denied the Company’s petition for inter partes review. On May 18, 2018, the Company filed a request for rehearing of the USPTO denial order, which was denied. On October 15, 2018, the Court issued a Memorandum Opinion and Order regarding claim construction of the '581 patent, ruling in favor of the Company and Grifols on nearly all disputed claim terms. On November 5, 2018, the Court entered final judgment in favor of the Company and Grifols following the filing of a Joint Stipulation of Noninfringement. On November 28, 2018, Enzo filed a notice of appeal with the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which appeal remains pending.

(14) Income Taxes


In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740), each interim period is considered integral to the annual period, and tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate. An entity is required to record income tax expense each quarter based on its annual effective tax rate estimated for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis, adjusted for discrete taxable events that occur during the interim period.


The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 30, 201928, 2020 was a provision of 20.3% and a benefit of 122.1%, respectively, compared to a benefit of 22.9% and 30.2%, respectively, compared to a benefit of 1.4% and 53.8% for the corresponding periods in the prior year. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2020 differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to taxation of foreign earnings at a tax rate lower than the statutory tax rate including the impact to global intangible low tax income and foreign derived intangible income, partially offset by unbenefited foreign losses. The effective tax rate for the six months ended March 28, 2020 differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to a $310.9 million discrete net tax benefit related to the loss on the sale of the Medical Aesthetics business.

For the three months ended March 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the impact of the Medical Aesthetics impairment charge, and earnings in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates. For the six months ended March 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the effectimpact of the Medical Aesthetics impairment charge, earnings in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates, a $19.2 million discrete benefit related to an internal restructuring, and finalizing the impact of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Act") in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.


For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the operating loss resulting from the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, substantially all of which was non-deductible. ForDuring the six months ended March 31, 2018,28, 2020, the effectiveCompany's gross unrecognized tax rate differedbenefits excluding interest increased from the statutory tax rate$101.6 million to $212.7 million primarily due to the year-to-date operating loss resulting from the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, substantially all of which was non-deductible, and the favorable impact of the Act enacted on December 22, 2017.

Tax Reform

The Act, which was enacted on December 22, 2017 (the first quarter of fiscal 2018), significantly revised the U.S. system of corporate taxation by, among other things, lowering the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, implementing a new international tax system, broadening the tax base and imposing a tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”) directing SEC registrants to consider the impact of the U.S. legislation as “provisional” when it does not have the necessary information available, prepared or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete its accounting for the change in tax law. In accordance with SAB 118, during fiscal 2018 the Company recorded its best estimates based on its interpretation of the U.S. legislation while it continued to accumulate data to finalize the underlying calculations.

As of December 29, 2018, the Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Act. As described below, the Company completed its calculation of the effects on its existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax, and recognized a final net benefit amount of $341.2 million, which is included as a componentresult of incomeuncertain tax expense. At March 31, 2018, the Company had not completed its accounting for the tax effects of enactment of the Act; however, the Company had made a reasonable estimate of the effects on its existing deferred tax balances and the onetime transition tax, and recognized a provisional net benefit of $327.0 million, which was included in income tax expense as of March 31, 2018. This estimate was updated as September 29, 2018 and the Company recorded a net benefit of $346.2 million in fiscal 2018. The benefit reduction of $5.0 million recorded in the three months ended December 29, 2018 primarily related to credit utilization limitations and executive compensation deduction disallowances resulting from the completion of computations reflecting the effects of clarifying guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury during the quarter.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities: The Company recorded a final net reduction of its deferred tax liabilities of $341.2 millionpositions related to the Act, as compared to the Company’s provisional net reduction of $346.4 million as of September 29, 2018. The Act resulted in a tax benefit pertaining to the re-measurement of certain U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%, partially offset by additional tax expense pertaining to credit utilization limitations and executive compensation deduction disallowances.

Foreign tax effects: The one-time transition tax is based on the Company’s total post-1986 earnings and profits (E&P) which were previously deferred from U.S. income taxes. The Company finalized its calculationdivestiture of the total post-1986 foreign E&P for these foreign subsidiaries resulting in no cumulative net income tax expenseMedical Aesthetics business, and to a lesser extent intercompany transfer pricing related to the one-time transition tax.ordinary business operations.

The Act subjects a U.S. shareholder to tax on GILTI earned by certain foreign subsidiaries. The FASB Staff Q&A, Topic 740, No. 5, Accounting for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, states that an entity can make an accounting policy election to either recognize deferred taxes for temporary basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in future years or to provide for the tax expense related to GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period expense only. The Company will account for GILTI in the year the tax is incurred as a period cost.


Other Tax Accounting Pronouncements


On October 24, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, which removes the prohibition in ASC 740 against the immediate recognition of the current and deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. Under ASU 2016-16, the selling (transferring) entity is required to recognize a current tax expense or benefit upon transfer of the asset. Similarly, the purchasing (receiving) entity is required to recognize a deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability, as well as the related deferred tax benefit or expense, upon receipt of the asset.


This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company adopted ASU 2016-16 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effectcumulative-

effect adjustment to decrease the opening balance of accumulated deficit within stockholders' equity as of September 30, 2018, the first day of fiscal 2019. This change in accounting principle resulted in an increase in deferred tax assets of $2.9 million, a decrease in accumulated deficit of $2.5 million, and a decrease in prepaid taxes of $0.4 million as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year beginning September 30, 2018.


The Company was required to account for the internal restructuring discussed above under ASU 2016-16 and recorded a $29.5 million increase to income tax expense and income tax liabilities and a decrease of $48.7 million to deferred tax expense and net deferred tax liabilities for the six months ended March 30, 2019. The net result iswas an increase to net income of $19.2 million, or an earnings per share increase of $0.07.


Non-Income Tax Matters


The Company is subject to tax examinations for value added, sales-based, payroll, and other non-income tax items. A number of these examinations are ongoing in various jurisdictions. The Company takes certain non-income tax positions in the jurisdictions in which it operates pursuant to ASC 450. In the normal course of business, the Company's positions and conclusions related to its non-income tax positions could be challenged, resulting in assessments by governmental authorities. While the Company believes estimated losses previously recorded are reasonable, certain audits are still ongoing and additional charges could be recorded in the future.

DuringIn the first quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company's Medical Aesthetics business met the criteria to be designated as assets held-for-sale. As a result, the Company recorded a $30.2 million charge to record the asset group at fair value less costs to sell. In addition, developed technology, customer lists, tradenames, and distribution agreement related to Medical Aesthetics of $24.1 million, $0.9 million, $2.0 million, and $1.2 million, respectively, were reclassified accordingly in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet to assets held-for-sale as of December 28, 2019 and subsequently disposed of in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, one2020.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company reviewed its long-lived assets for indicators of impairment as a result of lowering its expectations for revenue and operating income in the short term from the impact of COVID-19 on its business as discussed in Note 1. The Company updated its long-term forecasts and performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis which indicated that the estimated future cash flows are sufficient to recover the carrying values of its asset groups. In addition, the Company had significant cushion from its most recent goodwill impairment test in each of its reporting units and believes, based on its procedures, current facts and expectations, that as of the in-process researchdate of this report it is it not more likely than not that the fair value of each of its reporting units is below their respective carrying values. Given the current uncertainty of the duration and development projects acquiredscope of the COVID-19 pandemic, the related economic impact, and the potential longer term impact on the

Company's business, financial condition and results of operations, in the Faxitron acquisition, valued at $2.6 million, was completedfuture the Company may be required to perform an interim impairment test, in addition to its annual test, and reclassified to developed technology.

Medical Aesthetics Impairment - Fiscal 2019


During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, in connection with commencing its company-wide annual budgeting and strategic planning process as well as evaluating the current operating performance of its Medical Aesthetics reporting unit (comprised solely of the Cynosure business), the Company reduced its short term and long term revenue and operating income forecasts. The updated forecast reflectsreflected reduced volume and market penetration projections primarily in the Body Contouring business due to increased competition in the non-invasive fat reduction category, and lower Women's Health product sales primarily from reduced sales volume of the MonaLisa Touch device, which the Company believes isbelieved was primarily driven by the FDA's public letter in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 challenging various medical aesthetics companies marketing of devices for so called "vaginal rejuvenation" procedures relative to their FDA approvals. As a result of the revised forecasts in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company determined indicators of impairment existed and performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis pursuant to ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, to determine if the cash flows expected to be generated by this asset group over the estimated remaining useful life of the primary assets were sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset group, which was determined to be at the reporting unit level. Based on this analysis, which included evaluating various cash flow scenarios, the undiscounted cash flows were not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset group. As a result, the Company was required to perform Step 3 of the impairment test and determine the fair value of the asset group. To estimate the fair value, the Company utilized the income approach, which is based on a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to the asset group and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the DCF require

significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates and terminal values, growth rates, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The forecasted cash flows are based on the Company's most recent strategic plan and for periods beyond the strategic plan, the Company's estimates arewere based on assumed growth rates expected as of the measurement date. The Company believesbelieved its assumptions arewere consistent with the plans and estimates that a market participant would use to manage the business. The discount rate used is intended to reflect the risks inherent in future cash flow projections and was based on an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of market participants relative to the asset group. The Company used a discount rate of 11.0%. As a result of this analysis, the fair value of the Medical Aesthetics asset group was below its carrying value, and the Company recorded an impairment charge of $443.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2019. The impairment charge has beenwas allocated to the long-lived assets as follows: $373.3 million to developed technology, $14.4 million to customer relationships, $31.5 million to trade names, $17.8 million to distribution agreements and $6.8 million to equipment. The Company believesbelieved its assumptions used to determine the fair value of the asset group arewere reasonable. Actual operating results andThe Company completed the related cash flowssale of the asset group could differ from the estimated operating results and related cash flows. In the event the asset group does not meet its forecasted projections, additional impairment charges could be recordedMedical Aesthetics business in the future.

In connection with this analysis, the Company also re-evaluated the remaining useful lives of intangible assets acquired in the Cynosure acquisition and shortened the lives of certain assets.

Goodwill
During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, in connection with commencing its company-wide annual budgeting and strategic planning process, evaluating its current operating performance of its Medical Aesthetics reporting unit, and abandoning an in-process research and development project, the Company reduced its short term and long term revenue and operating income forecasts and determined that indicators of impairment existed in its Medical Aesthetics reporting unit. 2020. Please refer to Note 6 for additional details.
The updated forecast reflects significantly reduced volume and market penetration projections resulting in lower short-term and long-term profitability than expected at the timeestimated remaining amortization expense of the Cynosure acquisition. As a resultCompany's acquired intangible assets as of those current events and circumstances at that time, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that this change would reduce the fair valueMarch 28, 2020 for each of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.In performing the impairment test, the Company utilized the single step approach under Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). The Goodwill impairment test requires a comparison of the carrying value of the Medical Aesthetics reporting unit to its estimated fair value. To estimate the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company utilized a DCF analysis. The forecasted cash flows were based on the Company's most recent budget and strategic plan and for periods beyond the strategic plan, the Company's estimates were based on assumed growth rates expectedfive succeeding fiscal years is as of the measurement date. The Company believed its assumptions were consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the underlying business. The basis of fair value for Medical Aesthetics assumed the reporting unit would be purchased or sold in a non-taxable transaction, and the discount rate of 12.0% applied to the after-tax cash flows was consistent with that used in the purchase accounting performed in fiscal 2017. As a result of this analysis, the fair value of the Medical Aesthetic reporting unit was significantly below its carrying value, and the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $685.7 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2018. This reporting unit now has a goodwill value of zero. The Company believes its assumptions used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit were reasonable. Actual operating results and the related cash flows of the reporting units could differ from the estimated operating results and related cash flows.follows:
During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, due to the presence of impairment indicators, the Company also performed an impairment test of this reporting unit’s long-lived assets. This impairment evaluation was based on expectations of future undiscounted cash flows compared to the carrying value of the long-lived assets. The Company’s cash flow estimates were consistent with those used in the goodwill impairment test discussed above. Based on this analysis, the undiscounted cash flows of the Medical Aesthetics long-lived assets were in excess of their carrying value and thus deemed to not be impaired. The Company believes its procedures for estimating future cash flows were reasonable and consistent with market conditions at the time of estimation.

(18)(20) New Accounting Pronouncements


See Note 1 for Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). and subsequently a number of improvements. The guidance requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the expected credit losses during the period. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities will be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a direct write-down to the security. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2021. Early

adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13, as well as all codification improvements in ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-10, ASU 2019-11 and ASU 2020-03, on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Early adoption is permitted. The updated guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the anticipated impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-10 on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This guidance changes how entities measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method. Entities will be required to measure these investments at fair value at the end of each reporting period and recognize changes in fair value in net income. A practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values (e.g. cost method investments), however, the exception requires the Company to consider relevant transactions that can be reasonably known to identify any observable price changes that would impact the fair value.

OVERVIEW
We are a developer, manufacturer and supplier of premium diagnostics products, medical imaging systems, and surgical products focused on women's health and well-being through early detection and treatment and until recently our product portfolio included light-based aesthetic and medical treatments systems with an emphasis on women's health. We operatesold by our former Medical Aesthetic business. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, we operated in fivefour segments: Diagnostics, Breast Health, Medical Aesthetics, GYN Surgical and Skeletal Health. We completed the sale of the Medical Aesthetics segment on December 30, 2019 (the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020). We sell and service our products through a combination of direct sales and service personnel and a network of independent distributors and sales representatives.
We offer a wide range of diagnostic products which are used primarily to aid in the diagnosis of human diseases. Our primary diagnostics products include our Aptima family of molecular diagnostic assays, which run on our advanced instrumentation systems (Panther and Tigris), our ThinPrep cytology system, and the Rapid Fetal Fibronectin Test. The Aptima family of molecular diagnostic assays is used to detect, among other things, the infectious microorganisms that cause the common sexually transmitted diseases, or STDs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, certain high-risk strains of human papillomavirus, or HPV, and Trichomonas vaginalis, the parasite that causes trichomoniasis. In addition, in 2017 and 2018 we introduced the Aptima portfolio includes quantitative viral load tests for HIV, Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B. The Aptima portfolio also includes diagnostic tests for a range of acute respiratory ailments that are run on the Panther Fusion system, a field upgradeable instrument addition to the Panther. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for our Panther Fusion® SARS-CoV-2 assay for testing for the COVID-19 virus. We are in the process of completing development of a second SARS-CoV-2 assay that will run on the Panther instrument, more than 1,800 of which are used by clinical laboratories around the world. Subject to obtaining the required authorizations, we expect to introduce the assay in May. The ThinPrep System is primarily used in cytology applications, such as cervical cancer screening, and the Rapid Fetal Fibronectin Test assists physicians in assessing the risk of pre-term birth.
Our Breast Health products include a broad portfolio of solutions for breast cancer care for radiology, pathology and surgery. These solutions include breast imaging and analytics, such as our 2D and 3D mammography systems and reading workstations, minimally invasive breast biopsy guidance systems and devices, breast biopsy site markers and localization, specimen radiology, ultrasound and connectivity solutions. Our most advanced breast imaging platform, Selenia Dimensions and 3Dimensions, utilizes a technology called tomosynthesis to produce 3D images that show multiple contiguous slice images of the breast, which we refer to as the Genius 3D Mammography exam, as well as conventional 2D full field digital mammography images. Our clinical results for FDA approval demonstrated that conventional 2D digital mammography with the addition of 3D tomosynthesis is superior to 2D digital mammography alone for both screening and diagnostics for women of all ages and breast densities. In addition, through our recent acquisitions of Faxitron Bioptics, LLC ("Faxitron") and Focal we have expanded our product portfolio to include breast conserving surgery products.
Our Medical Aesthetics segment offers a portfolio of aesthetic treatment systems, including SculpSure, PicoSure and MonaLisa Touch, that enable plastic surgeons, dermatologists and other medical practitioners to perform non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures to remove hair, treat vascular and benign pigmented lesions, remove multi-colored tattoos, revitalize the skin, reduce fat through laser lipolysis, reduce cellulite, clear nails infected by toe fungus, ablate sweat glands and improve gynecologic health. This segment also markets our TempSure radio frequency, or RF, energy sourced platform that offers both non-surgical and surgical aesthetic treatments and procedures.
Our GYN Surgical products include our NovaSure Endometrial Ablation System, or NovaSure, and our MyoSure Hysteroscopic Tissue Removal System, or MyoSure, as well as our Fluent Fluid Management system, or Fluent. The NovaSure portfolio is comprised of the NovaSure CLASSIC and NovaSure ADVANCED devices and involves a trans-cervical procedure for the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding. The MyoSure suite of devices offers four options to provide incision-less removal of fibroids, polyps, and other pathology within the uterus. The Fluent system is a fluid management system that provides liquid distention during diagnostic and operative hysteroscopic procedures.
Our disposed of Medical Aesthetics segment offered a portfolio of aesthetic treatment systems, including SculpSure, PicoSure and MonaLisa Touch, that enable plastic surgeons, dermatologists and other medical practitioners to perform non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures to remove hair, treat vascular and benign pigmented lesions, remove multi-colored tattoos, revitalize the skin, reduce fat through laser lipolysis, reduce cellulite, clear nails infected by toe fungus, ablate sweat glands and improve gynecologic health. This segment also marketed our TempSure radio frequency, or RF, energy sourced platform that offered both non-surgical and surgical aesthetic treatments and procedures.

On November 20, 2019, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our Medical Aesthetics business to Clayton Dubilier & Rice ("CD&R") for a sales price of $205.0 million in cash, less certain adjustments. The sale was completed on December 30, 2019 (the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020), and the Company received cash proceeds of $153.4 million. The sales price remains subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the definitive agreement, and the Company is in process of evaluating adjustments to the final sales price. As a result, we recorded a $30.2 million impairment charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 to record the asset group to its fair value less costs to dispose as it met the assets held-for-sale criteria. For additional information, see Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements included herein. Following the sale of our Medical Aesthetics business, we do not anticipate to receive any further revenue related to this business, although additional expenses will be incurred in connection with indemnification provisions primarily related to legal and tax matters. In addition, we have agreed to provide transition services for a period of up to 15 months.
Our Skeletal Health segment's products includes the Horizon DXA, a dual energy x-ray system, which evaluates bone density and performs body composition assessments, and the Fluoroscan Insight FD mini C-arm, which assists in performing minimally invasive orthopedic surgical procedures on a patient's extremities, such as the hand, wrist, knee, foot, and ankle.

Emsor, S.A.COVID-19 Considerations

The pandemic caused by the spread of the novel strain of coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption in the markets we sell our products into and operate in, primarily the U.S., Europe and Asia-Pacific. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the spread of COVID-19 has negatively impacted business and healthcare activity globally. As healthcare systems respond to the increasing demands of managing COVID-19 and the resulting economic uncertainties, governments around the world have imposed measures designed to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, and individuals are responding to the fears of contracting COVID-19. In particular, elective procedures and exams are being delayed or cancelled, there has been a significant reduction in physician office visits, and hospitals are postponing or cancelling capital purchases as well as limiting or eliminating services. As further discussed in this Report, these responses have had, and we believe will continue to have, a negative impact on our operating results and cash flows. While the effects of COVID-19 and the associated economic disruptions were felt primarily in the second half of March in many of our end-markets and earlier in Asia, primarily China, we expect the effect on our financial results in the third fiscal quarter to be significant. While we believe that the impact on our business will begin to lessen in the fourth quarter and continue to do so in subsequent periods the impacts on these periods could be significant.
On December 11, 2017,We believe that COVID-19’s adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition will be primarily driven by: the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic; the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the U.S. and international healthcare systems, the U.S. economy and worldwide economy; and the timing, scope and effectiveness of U.S. and international governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions.
In addition to adversely affecting demand for our products, COVID-19 and associated economic disruptions could have an adverse impact on our supply chains and distribution systems, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that we, completedother businesses and governments are taking. A reduction or interruption in any of our manufacturing processes could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We expect that the acquisition of Emsor S.A. ("Emsor") for a purchase price of $16.3 million, which includes contingent consideration estimated at $4.9 million. The contingent consideration is payable upon Emsor achieving predefined amounts of cumulative revenue over a two-year perioduncertainty surrounding world financial markets and deteriorating worldwide macroeconomic conditions resulting from the datepandemic have caused and may continue to cause the purchasers of acquisition. Emsor was a distributormedical equipment to decrease their medical equipment purchasing and procurement activities. Additionally, the pandemic has caused and may further cause constrictions in world credit markets that have and could cause our customers to experience increased difficulty in paying their existing obligations to us or in securing the financing necessary to purchase our products. Economic uncertainty has and may continue to result in cost-conscious consumers focusing on acute care rather than wellness, which would also continue to adversely affect demand for our products.
The terms of our credit facilities require us to satisfy certain financial covenants. Should our future business and operations be significantly impaired by the Company's Breastcontinuing COVID-19 pandemic and Skeletal Health productsassociated economic disruptions over an extended period of time or otherwise, we cannot assure that we will remain in Spaincompliance with our current financial covenants. In such event, the factors that adversely affect our business may also similarly adversely affect the capital markets, and Portugal.

Faxitron

On July 31, 2018, we completedcannot assure that we would be able to negotiate alternative covenants or alternative financing on favorable terms if at all. Our failure to comply with the acquisitioncovenants contained in our credit facilities, including financial covenants, could result in an event of Faxitron Bioptics, LLC or Faxitron, for a purchase price of $89.5 million,default, which include hold-backs of $11.7 million that are payable up to one year from the date of acquisition,could materially and contingent consideration, which we estimated at $2.9 million. The contingent consideration is payable upon meeting certain revenue growth metrics. Faxitron, headquartered in Tucson, Arizona, develops, manufactures, and markets digital radiography systems. Faxitron'sadversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
As we assessed the potential longer term economic and capital market uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, at the end of March 2020 we suspended our accounts receivable securitization program and borrowed $750 million under our revolver. We used $250 million of these proceeds to pay off all amounts then owed under our accounts receivable securitization agreement, and retained the balance as cash reserve. As of March 28, 2020 we had another $750 million available under our revolver.
In response to the negative impact of COVID-19 on our business, in April 2020 we initiated cost-cutting measures, which included not only reducing discretionary and variable spending, such as travel, marketing programs and the use of contractors, consultants and temporary help, but we also implemented employee furloughs, salary cuts primarily in the U.S., reduced hours and in certain instances employee terminations. Further, we have shut down certain manufacturing facilities temporarily and implemented reduced work-week schedules in response to lower near-term demand for many of our products. These actions, as they relate to our manufacturing operations, are reportedexpected to reduce the efficiency of our manufacturing operations and could further adversely affect our results of operations. Future cost savings initiatives and other measures related to stopping the spread of COVID-19 could also adversely affect our research and development activities, including our clinical trials.
We have also taken measures to ensure the safety of our employees and to comply with governmental orders. These measures could require that our employees refrain from traveling to their normal workplace for extended periods of time, which in turn could result in a decrease in our Breast Health reportable segment fromcommercial and marketing activities.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the FDA granted Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) for our Panther Fusion SARS-CoV-2 assay for testing for the COVID-19 virus. We are in the process of completing development of a second SARS-CoV-2 assay which will run on our more widely distributed Panther instrument. We have installed more than 1,800 Panther instruments, which are used by clinical laboratories around the world. Subject to obtaining the required authorizations, we expect to introduce the assay in May. However, we can give no assurance that this assay will be developed and authorized on a timely basis, if at all, or if introduced, will be commercially successful.

ACQUISITIONS

SuperSonic Imagine

On August 1, 2019, we acquired approximately 46% of the outstanding shares of SuperSonic Imagine S. A., or SSI. SSI, headquartered in France, specializes in ultrasound imaging and designs, develops and markets an ultrasound platform used in the non-invasive care path for the characterization of breast, liver or prostate diseases. We initially accounted for this investment as an equity method investment.

On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 7.6 million shares of SSI for $12.6 million. As a result, we owned approximately 78% of the outstanding shares of SSI at November 21, 2019 and controlled SSI's voting interest and operations. We performed purchase accounting as of November 21, 2019 and beginning on that date the financial results of acquisition.SSI are included within our consolidated financial statements. We remeasured the initial investment of 46% of the outstanding shares of SSI to its fair value at the acquisition date, resulting in a gain of $3.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The total purchase price was $69.3 million, which consisted of $17.9 million for the equity method investment in SSI, $12.6 million for shares acquired on November 21, 2019, $30.2 million for loans we provided to SSI prior to the acquisition that are considered forgiven, and $8.6 million representing the fair value of the noncontrolling interests as of November 21, 2019. Based on our preliminary purchase price allocation, we have allocated $53.2$45.3 million of the purchase price to the preliminary value of intangible assetsintangibles and $42.4$22.4 million to goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary as we continue to gather information supporting the acquired assets and liabilities.


Focal TherapeuticsAs of March 28, 2020, we owned approximately 81% of SSI, and accordingly we have recorded an adjustment to our net income for the non-controlling interest we do not own of $1.5 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended March 28, 2020,

We generated an increasehad a reduction in product revenues in both the current three and six month periods of 3.5%6.6% and 4.3%2.1%, respectively,

compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. InThe decrease is primarily due to the current three and six month periods, we had increases across all our business segments exceptdisposition of the Medical Aesthetics business segment, which experiencedwas completed on December 30, 2019 and a declinereduction in volume of SculpSure and MonaLisa Touch system sales in both periods, and SkeletalBreast Health product revenues primarily due to decreased demand in the current three month period.second half of March which we attribute to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic as described above.
Diagnostics product revenues increased $16.8$24.0 million and $27.9$40.3 million or 6.1%8.3% and 5.0%6.9%, respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to increaseincreases in Molecular Diagnostics of $17.7$23.7 million and $32.7$39.0 million, respectively, partially offset by combined decreasesa decrease of $2.2 million in the current three month period and an increase of $0.4 million in the current six month period in Cytology & Perinatal, and Perinatalincreases of $2.3$2.5 million and $7.5$0.9 million, respectively. In addition, revenue fromrespectively, in blood screening, which we divested in the second quarter of fiscal 2017 increased $1.5 million and $2.6 million, respectively, under our agreementbut for which we continue to provide Grifols manufacturing support through a transition services period and long termlong-term access to Panther instrumentation and certain supplies. Molecular Diagnostics product revenue (excluding blood screening) was $165.4$189.1 million and $326.7$365.7 million, respectively, in the current three and six month periods respectively, compared to $147.4$165.4 million and $294.0$326.7 million respectively, in the corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase wasincreases were primarily attributable to sales volume of our Aptima family of assays, which increased $11.8$9.5 million and $22.5$18.7 million, respectively, on a worldwide basis in the current three and six month periods on a worldwide basis primarily due to ourthe increased installed base of our Panther instruments.instruments, menu expansion and the adoption of co-testing for cervical cancer screening in Germany. This installed base is driving higher volumes of assay testing.testing, which is partially offset by a slight decline in average selling prices. We also sold more instruments on a worldwide basis in both current year periods compared to the prior year. In addition, we had an increase in worldwide sales of our virology products for which we have recently received certain international regulatory approvals.and our newer Fusion assays. Cytology & Perinatal product revenue decreased in the current quarter primarily due to lower Perinatal volumes, which we primarily attribute to a shift in ordering patterns, and lower domestic ThinPrep test volumes, which we primarily attribute to screening interval expansion as well as a declineslight declined in average selling prices, partially offset by an increase in international volumes. Cytology & Perinatal product revenue increased in the current six month period due to higher international ThinPrep test volumes on a worldwide basis.partially offset by lower domestic ThinPrep test volumes and slightly lower average selling prices. The increase in ThinPrep volumes internationally is primarily due to increasing our customer base in Europe, which was partially offset by declines in Asia-Pacific, primarily China, which we primarily attribute to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in revenues in both periods werewas partially offset by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar against a number of currencies. We expect a significant decrease in sales of our diagnostic products, except our COVID-19 assay, in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and to a lesser extent in the fourth quarter and beyond as the COVID-19 pandemic continues and wellness visits are delayed or cancelled.
Breast Health product revenues increased $15.1decreased $13.0 million and $45.7$10.6 million or 8.1%6.4% and 12.7%2.6%, respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on sales in the second half of the month of March 2020 resulting in a decrease in sales volume of our 3D Dimensions and 2D systems and related workflow products, consisting of Intelligent 2D, Clarity HD, and SmartCurve upgrades, lower 3D software upgrades, and a slight decline in average selling prices for our 3D systems. We also experienced a decline in sales volume of our Affirm Prone breast biopsy tables. We primarily attribute the decline in revenues to the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. as hospitals and imaging centers either slowed down purchases or delayed orders and installations of capital equipment units in order to focus their efforts towards COVID-19 patients and concerns on maintaining their cash and liquidity, as well as from the impact of delayed or cancelled elective imaging exams and procedure as described above. These decreases were partially offset by the inclusion of Faxitron and Focal SSI

which contributed combined revenues of $13.8$4.9 million and $26.5$10.6 million, respectively, of product revenue in the current three and six month periods, respectively.periods. We obtained control of SSI and began consolidating their results for the last fiscal month of the first quarter of fiscal 2020. In addition, we had increased unit volumes of our digital mammography systems, primarily our newest 3Dimensions and 3D Performance systems, which complement our older 3D systems and an increase in disposables used with our Brevera breast biopsy system. In the current three month period, Affirm Prone table sales increased, partially offset by lower sales of our workflow components. In the current six month period, we had an increaseinterventional breast solutions ATEC and Eviva disposables. We expect a significant further decrease in sales of our workflow components as we sold more 3DimensionsBreast Health products in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and 3D Performance systems. The increaseto a lesser extent in the fourth quarter and beyond if the COVID-19 pandemic continues and hospitals and healthcare centers continue to restrict access and wellness visits and elective medical procedures, and capital expenditures continue to be delayed or cancelled.
GYN Surgical product revenues in both periods were partially offset by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar against a number of currencies.
Medical Aesthetics product revenue decreased $11.3increased $3.1 million and $23.3$13.6 million or (16.2)%3.0% and (15.9)%6.5%, respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in Body Contouring product revenues on a worldwide basis primarily driven by lower volumes of SculpSure lasers, Submental upgrades and related PAC keys, which we believe is due to continuing challenges in our domestic sales force and increased competition in the non-invasive fat reduction category, and lower Women's Health product sales primarily from lower sales volume of our MonaLisa Touch device, which we believe is primarily driven by the FDA's public letter in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 challenging various medical aesthetics companies' marketing of devices for so called "vaginal rejuvenation" procedures relative to their FDA approvals. In November of 2018, we received confirmation from the FDA that we had adequately addressed all of the concerns expressed in their letter and continue to market our Women’s Health products accordingly. These decreases were partially offset by higher Skin product revenue in both the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. In the current three month period, higher Skin product revenue was primarily driven by Icon and PicoSure system sales, partially offset by lower TempSure sales as the TempSure product line was launched in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, which resulted in higher sales in the prior year period. In the current six month period, higher Skin product revenue was primarily driven by the TempSure product line being available for six months as compared to three months in the prior year and relaunch of TempSure Vitalia in the first quarter of 2019 after the voluntary recall in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018 in response to the FDA letter referred to above. The revenue decline in both periods was also due to the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar against a number of currencies.
GYN Surgical product revenues increased $2.7 million and $3.6 million, or 2.8% and 1.7% , respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to an increaseincreases in the volume of MyosureMyoSure system sales of $1.2$1.0 million and $3.5$7.0 million, respectively, and an increaseincreases in Fluent systems sales of $2.3$3.8 million and $3.7$8.0 million, respectively, as Fluent was launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018.respectively. These increases were partially offset by a decreasedecreases in NovaSure systems sales of $2.3$3.6 million and $5.8$5.5 million, respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year. We attribute the decrease in NovaSure sales primarily to increased competition and a stagnant market for endometrial ablation. In addition, we have experiencedablation in the U.S. We expect a slight reductionsignificant decrease in average selling prices across manysales of our MyosureGYN Surgical products in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and Novasure devices, which was partially offset by an increaseto a lesser extent in sales volume for the higher margin NovaSure ADVANCED device.fourth quarter and beyond if the COVID-19 pandemic continues and hospitals and healthcare centers continue to restrict access and elective medical procedures continue to be delayed or cancelled.

We divested the Medical Aesthetics segment on December 30, 2019, the beginning of our second quarter of fiscal 2020.
Skeletal Health product revenues decreased $0.5increased $0.1 million and $2.2 million or (2.9)%,0.6% and increased $1.3 million, or 4.3%,7.1% respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periodsperiod in the prior year. The decrease in the current quarter wasyear primarily due to decreasean increase in sales volume of our Horizon DXA systems, which was partially offset by lower sales volume of our Insight FD mini C-arm systemsystem. We expect a significant decrease in sales of our Skeletal products in the U.S. The increasethird quarter of fiscal 2020 and to a lesser extent in the current six month period was primarily duefourth quarter and beyond if the COVID-19 pandemic continues and hospitals and healthcare centers continue to increase in sales volume of our Insight FD mini C-arm system.restrict access and wellness and elective medical procedures continue to be delayed or cancelled.

Cost of Product Revenues. The cost of product revenues as a percentage of product revenues was 34.9%35.8% and 34.4%34.8% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to 33.7%34.9% and 33.3%34.4% in the corresponding periods in the prior year. Cost of product revenues as a percentage of product revenuesrevenue increased in the current three and six month periods increased primarily due to shifts in product mix for the Diagnostics, Breath Health and GYN Surgical business segments resulting in lower gross margin in fiscal 2020, an increase in inventory reserves unfavorableand higher freight costs. Partially offsetting these increases was a benefit from the disposition of Medical Aesthetics, which had lower gross margins compared to our remaining businesses. We expect gross margin to deteriorate across our businesses from significantly lower sales volume and manufacturing variances and product mix, step-upshut-downs resulting in fair value of inventory acquiredhigher period costs in the Focal acquisitionthird quarter of $1.8 millionfiscal 2020 and $3.6 million, respectively, increased tariff costs for products imported into Chinapotentially in the fourth quarter of $1.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and higher international freight costs.fiscal 2020 as a result of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Diagnostics' product costs as a percentage of revenue increased slightly in the current three and six month periodsperiod compared to the corresponding periodsperiod in the prior year primarily due to lower gross margin from blood screening based on the increase in sales under our long-term supply agreement with Grifols, lower ThinPrep Pap testvolumes in the U.S., and Perinatal sales, unfavorable manufacturing variances, increased volumes of lower margin products supplied to Grifols under the new supply and collaboration agreements, and tariff costsan increase in China These cost increases wereinventory reserves, partially offset by increased volume of Aptima assays and viral assays which generally have higher gross margin. Product costs as a percentage of revenue were consistent in the current six month period compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to improved molecular diagnostics' gross margin from increased volume of Aptima assays and viral assays.assays offsetting the increased costs noted above.
Breast Health’s product costs as a percentage of revenue increased in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to unfavorable manufacturing and purchase price variances, an increase in inventory reserve charges in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the acquisition of Focal in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and the related impact of stepping-up the acquired inventory to fair value in purchase accounting resulting in an additional cost of $1.8 million and $3.6 million in the current three and six month periods, respectively, an increase in thedecreased sales volume of digital mammographyour 3D Dimensions systems internationally,and Affirm Prone breast biopsy tables, a slight decline in average selling prices for our 3D Dimensions systems due to customer mix and higher international sales which have lower average selling prices than the U.S., a decrease in our higher-margin workflow products, consisting of Intelligent 2D, Clarity HD, and tariff costsSmartCurve upgrades and a decrease in China. The3D software upgrades. These decreases were partially offset by higher domestic sales volumeprimarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S. as hospitals and imaging centers either slowed down purchases or delayed orders and installations of the higher margin 3Dimensions system sales in both current year periods and for the current six month period, an increase in 3D upgrades, which have higher gross margins than capital equipment sales.units in order to focus their efforts towards COVID-19 patients and concerns on maintaining their cash and liquidity, as well as from the impact of delayed or cancelled elective imaging exams, screenings and procedures as described above.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets relates to acquired developed technology, which is generally amortized over its estimated useful life of between 5 and 15 years using a straight-line method or, if reliably determinable, based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be consumed. Amortization expense increaseddecreased in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to combinedlower amortization expense related toof $17.4 million and $33.1 million, respectively, from intangible assets acquired in the FaxitronCynosure acquisition as a result of impairment charges (partially offset by shortening lives of certain assets) in fiscal 2019, the classification of the Medical Aesthetic business as assets held-for-sale in November 2019 and Focal acquisitions of $3.2 millionits subsequent disposition on December 30, 2019, and $6.4 million, respectively, partially offset by lower amortization of intangible assets acquired in the Cytyc acquisition which reduce over time. These decreases were partially offset by amortization expense in the current three and six month periods related to intangible assets acquired in the SSI acquisition of $1.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Impairment of Intangible AssetsAssets. As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, we recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $30.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The impairment charge was allocated to the Medical Aesthetics long-lived assets, of which $25.8 million was allocated to developed technology assets and Equipment. written off to cost of revenues. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, in connection with commencing our company-wide annual budgeting and strategic planning process as well as evaluating the current operating performance of its Medical Aesthetics reporting unit (comprised solely of the Cynosure business), we reduced our short term and long term revenue and operating income forecasts. The updated forecast reflects reduced volume and market penetration projections primarily in our Body Contouring business due to increased competition in the non-invasive fat reduction category, and lower Women's Health product sales primarily from reduced sales volume of the MonaLisa Touch device, which we believe is primarily driven by the FDA's public letter in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2018. As a result of the revised forecasts in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, we determined indicators of impairment existed and performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis pursuant to ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, to determine if the cash flows expected to be generated by this asset group over the estimated remaining useful life of the primary assets were sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset group. Based on this analysis, which included evaluating various cash flow scenarios, the undiscounted cash flows were not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the asset group. As a result, we were required to perform Step 3 of the impairment test and determine the fair value of the asset group. To estimate the fair value, we utilized the income approach, which is based on a discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to the asset group and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the DCF require significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates and terminal values, growth rates, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The forecasted cash flows are based on our most recent strategic plan and for periods beyond the strategic plan, our estimates are based on assumed growth rates expected as of the measurement date. We believe our assumptions are consistent with the plans and estimates that a market participant would use to manage the business. The discount rate used is intended to reflect the risks inherent in future cash flow projections and was based on an estimate of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) of market participants relative to the asset group. We used a discount rate of 11.0%. As a result of this analysis, the fair value of the Medical Aesthetics asset group was below its carrying value, and we recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $443.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2019.million. The impairment charge was allocated to the long-lived assets and $373.3 million of developed technology intangible assets and $1.3 million of equipment was written off to cost of product revenues. We believe our assumptions usedSee Note 15 to determine the fair value of the asset group are reasonable. Actual operating results and the related cash flows of the asset group could differ from the estimated operating results and related cash flows. In the event the asset group does not meet its forecasted projections,consolidated financial statements for additional impairment charges could be recorded in the future.information.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 0.9%decreased 14.0% and decreased (1.0)%0.1% in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the disposition of the Medical Aesthetics business in the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, which had research and development expenses of $0 and $7.3 million, respectively, in the current three and six month periods and $7.5 million and $14.4 million, respectively, in the corresponding periods in the prior year. The increase inIn addition, the current three month period had lower compensation and benefits driven by a credit from our deferred compensation plan as the expense is primarily due to higher compensationdriven by the mark-to-market of the value of the underlying investments, lower bonus expense in Breast Health due to increased headcount and the inclusion of expenses from the Faxitron and Focal acquisitions, partially offset by decrease in project spend and a reduction in project spend in Breast Health, partially offset by the addition of $1.0 million of SSI expenses, increased spending to implement the European MDR/IVDR requirements, and increased R&D project spend in Diagnostics from lower headcount.and Surgical. The decrease in the current six month period is primarily due to decrease inhad lower expense from Medical Aesthetics of $7.1 million, but this was offset by increased R&D consulting and project spend across the divisionsbusinesses, the addition of $1.5 million of SSI expenses and a reduction in Diagnostics from lower headcount, partially offset byincreased spending to implement the inclusion of expenses from the Faxitron and Focal acquisitions.European MDR/IVDR requirements. At any point in time, we have a number of different research projects and clinical trials being conducted and the timing of these projects and related costs can vary from period to period.
Selling and Marketing Expenses. Selling and marketing expenses increased 2.3%decreased 17.2% and 3.5%8.6% in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the disposition of the Medical Aesthetics business in the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, which had sales and marketing expenses attributable to the Faxitronof $0 and Focal acquisitions of $4.5$23.7 million, and $8.5 million forrespectively, in the current three and six month periods and $26.1 million and $53.6 million, respectively, in the corresponding periods in the prior year. In addition, the current three and six month periods had reductions in marketing initiatives, trade show expenses, consulting and travel expenses, partially offset by an increase in commissions and third-party commissions in Breast Health from higher revenues, increased sales personnel head countand the inclusion of SSI expenses in Surgical,the current three and higher international trade shows partially offset by lower compensation expensesix month periods of $5.8 million and $8.1 million, respectively. We expect selling and marketing expenses to decline further in Medical Aestheticsthe third quarter of fiscal 2020 and to a lesser extent in the fourth quarter due to our cost-containment measures implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as a result of lower headcount and commissions, and a reduction in marketing initiatives spend.described above.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 7.3%decreased 26.0% and 4.2%8.0% in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the disposition of the Medical Aesthetics business in the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020, which had general and administrative expenses of $0 and $5.5 million, respectively, in the current three and six month periods and $4.8 million and $9.9 million, respectively, in the corresponding periods in the prior year. In addition, the current three and six month periods had lower compensation and benefits principally driven by our deferred compensation plan, lower stock compensation expenses, lower bonus expense, a credit related to services provided under the transition services agreement with Cynosure, lower travel expenses, lower accounting and tax fees, and lower legal expenses as the prior year period included higher facilitylitigation and settlement costs related to the Fuji, Enzo and Minerva lawsuits, partially offset by an increase in tax consultingbad debt expense, acquisition related fees related to integration of acquired businesses, an increase in accountingfor due diligence and consulting, feesproject expenses related to the adoptionMedical Aesthetics disposition including accelerated stock compensation, and the inclusion of new accounting standards,SSI. In addition, the current six month period expenses were lower due to acquisition-related holdback and a net increase in legal feesaccrual reversals. We expect

general and charges primarily relatedadministrative expenses to settling the Enzo lawsuitfurther decline in the current quarter, and an increase in international bad debt expense. Additionally, the firstthird quarter of fiscal 2018 included2020 and a $4.0 million benefitpossible further decline in the fourth quarter primarily due to resolution of a non-income tax matter. Partially offsetting these increases was lower depreciation expense dueour cost-containment measures implemented in response to fiscal 2018 including accelerated depreciation of Cynosure's SAP ERP system.the COVID-19 pandemic as described above.
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets results from customer relationships, trade names, distributor relationships and business licenses related to our acquisitions. These intangible assets are generally amortized over their estimated useful lives of between 52 and 30 years using a straight-line method or, if reliably determinable, based on the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are expected to be consumed utilizing expected undiscounted future cash flows. Amortization expense decreased slightly in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year.year primarily due to lower amortization from intangible assets acquired in the Cynosure acquisition as a result of impairment charges (partially offset by shortening lives of certain assets) in fiscal 2019 and the classification of the Medical Aesthetic business as assets held-for-sale in November 2019 and its subsequent disposition on December 30, 2019.
Impairment of Intangible Assets and Equipment.Assets. As discussed above,in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, we recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $30.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The impairment charge was allocated to the Medical Aesthetics long-lived assets of which $4.4 million was written off to operating expenses. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, we recorded an aggregate impairment charge of $443.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2019.million. The impairment charge was allocated to the long-lived assets and written off to operating expenses was $14.4 million to customer relationships, $31.5 million to trade names, $17.8 million to distribution agreements and $5.5 million to equipment.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2018, we decided to cancel and abandon an in-process research and development project that was recorded as an intangible asset in the Cynosure acquisition purchase accounting. The project was abandoned due to unsuccessful clinical results. As a result, we recorded a $46.0 million impairment charge to write-off the full value of the asset.
Impairment of Goodwill. During the second quarter of fiscal 2018, in connection with commencing our company-wide annual budgeting and strategic planning process, evaluating the current operating performance of our Medical Aesthetics reporting unit, and abandoning an in-process research and development project, we reduced the short term and long term revenue and operating income forecasts and determined that indicators of impairment existed in our Medical Aesthetics reporting unit. The Medical Aesthetics reporting unit is solely comprised of the Cynosure business, which we acquired on March 22, 2017. The updated forecast reflected significantly reduced volume and market penetration projections resulting in lower short-term and long-term profitability than expected at the time of the Cynosure acquisition. As a result of those current events and circumstances, we determined that it was more likely than not that this change would reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. In performing the impairment test, we utilized the single step approach under Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (ASU 2017-04). The goodwill impairment test requires a comparison of the carrying value of the Medical Aesthetics reporting unit to its estimated fair value. To estimate the fair value of the reporting unit, we utilized a DCF analysis. The forecasted cash flows were based on our most recent budget and strategic plan and for periods beyond the strategic plan, our estimates were based on assumed growth rates expected as of the measurement date. We believe our assumptions were consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the underlying business. The basis of fair value for Medical Aesthetics assumed the reporting unit would be purchased or sold in a non-taxable transaction, and the discount rate of 12.0% applied See Note 15 to the after-tax cash flows was consistent with that used in the purchase accounting performed in fiscal 2017. We believe our assumptions used to determine the fair value of the reporting unit were reasonable.consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Restructuring and Divestiture Charges. We have implemented various cost reduction initiatives to align our cost structure with our operations and in connection with our acquisition of Cynosure and related to integration activities. In addition, we have recorded divestiture charges. These actions have primarily resulted in the termination of employees. As such,a result, we have recorded severance benefit charges of $1.6$2.9 million and $3.5$3.9 million in the current three and six month periods, respectively. In the prior year three and six month periods, we recorded charges of $1.8 million and $5.6 millionrespectively, primarily related to various actions.

Interest expense consists primarily of the cash interest costs and the related amortization of the debt discount and deferred issuance costs on our outstanding debt. Interest expense in the current three and six month periods has decreased primarily due to refinancinga decrease in LIBOR year over year, the basis for determining interest expense under our 2022 Senior Notes with our 20252018 Credit Agreement, and 2028 Senior Notes that carryoverall lower rates, anddebt balances in the current year, until we borrowed a net of $500 million at the end of March 2020, partially offset by lower proceeds received under our interest rate cap agreements that hedge the variable interest rate under our credit facilities partially offset by increased interest expense under our credit facilities due to an increase in LIBOR.

Our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 30, 201928, 2020 was a provision of 20.3% and a benefit of 122.1%, respectively, compared to a benefit of 22.9% and 30.2%, respectively, compared to a benefit of 1.4% and 53.8% for the corresponding periods in the prior year. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2020 differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to taxation of foreign earnings at a tax rate lower than the statutory tax rate including the impact to global intangible low tax income and foreign derived intangible income, partially offset by unbenefited foreign losses. The effective tax rate for the six months ended March 28, 2020 differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to a $310.9 million discrete net tax benefit related to the loss on the sale of the Medical Aesthetics business.
For the three months ended March 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the impact of the Medical Aesthetics impairment charge, and earnings in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates. For the six months ended March 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the effectsimpact of the Medical Aesthetics impairment charge, earnings in jurisdictions subject to lower tax rates, a $19.2 million discrete benefit related to an internal restructuring, and finalizing the impact of the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.


For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the operating loss resulting from the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, substantially all of which was non-deductible. For the six months ended March 31, 2018, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory tax rate primarily due to the year-to-date operating loss resulting from the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2018, substantially all of which was non-deductible, and the favorable impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the ”Act”) enacted on December 22, 2017.

Segment Results of Operations
We report our business as five segments: Diagnostics, Breast Health, GYN Surgical, Medical Aesthetics GYN Surgical and Skeletal Health. We completed the disposition of the Medical Aesthetics segment on December 30, 2019 (the beginning of the second quarter of fiscal 2020). The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2018.28, 2019. We measure segment performance based on total revenues and operating income or loss.(loss). Revenues from product sales of each of these segments are described in further detail above. The discussion that follows is a summary analysis of total revenues and the primary changes in operating income or loss by segment.

Diagnostics revenues increased in the current three and six month periodsperiod compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the fluctuations in product revenues discussed above. However, we expect a significant decrease in sales of our products, except our COVID-19 assays, in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and to a lesser extent in the fourth quarter and beyond if the COVID-19 pandemic continues and hospitals and healthcare centers continue to restrict access and elective medical procedures continue to be delayed or cancelled.


Operating income for this business segment decreased in the current three month period compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to the $10.5 million settlement charge recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 related to the Enzo litigation, lower U.S. ThinPrep Pap test and Perinatal volumes, unfavorable manufacturing variances and increased volumes of lower margin products supplied to Grifols under the supply and collaboration agreements in the current quarter compared to the corresponding prior year period. These factors contributing to decreases in operating income for this segment were partially offset by an increase in gross profit primarily due to increased sales of our Aptima family of assays and virals. Gross margin was 47.3% and 46.7% in the current three month period and corresponding prior year period, respectively.

Operating income increased in the current six month period compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to an increase in gross profit from higher revenues with consistent gross margins and consistent operating expenses, excluding the impact of the Enzo settlement charge. Gross margin was 47.3% in both the current six month period and corresponding prior year period. Improved molecular diagnostics' gross margin from increased volume of Aptima assays was offset by lower ThinPrep Pap test and Perinatal volumes, unfavorable manufacturing variances and increased volumes of products supplied to Grifols under the supply and collaboration agreements.

Operating expenses increased in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to the $10.5 million settlement charge for the Enzo litigation, an increase in marketing initiatives and trade shows, and restructuring charges, partially offset by lower compensation expense due to a decrease in headcount, and lower clinical site expenses for research and development projects.

Breast Health revenues increased in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to increases of $15.1 million and $45.7 million in product revenue, respectively, discussed above and an increase of $6.3 million and $12.4 million in service revenue, respectively, related to continued conversion of a high percentage of the installed base of digital mammography systems to service contracts upon expiration of the warranty period and to a lesser extent an increase in spare parts revenues, and an increase in license revenue.

Operating income for this business segment decreased in the current three month period compared to the corresponding period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in gross margin due to unfavorable manufacturing variances, inventory reserve charges in the second quarter of fiscal 2019, an increase in amortization expense from the Faxitron and Focal acquisitions, the fair value adjustment related to Focal inventory sold of $1.8 million, tariff costs in China, and the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar against a number of currencies. These decreases were partially offset by increased sales volume of the higher margin 3Dimensions system sales, and an increase in license revenue. Gross margin was 56.9% and 60.0% in the current three month period and corresponding prior year period, respectively. Operating expenses increased in the current three month period compared to the corresponding period in the prior year due to an increase in gross profit from higher revenues and a decrease in operating expenses. Gross margin was 47.4% and 47.3% in the current three month period and corresponding prior year period, respectively. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily due to the inclusion ofcorresponding prior year period including a $10.5 million settlement charge related to the Enzo litigation, and in the current year, we had lower compensation and benefits driven by our deferred compensation plan and lower bonus, and a decrease in travel expenses from the Faxitron and Focal acquisitions aggregating $7.2 million,due to COVID-19 restrictions, partially offset by an increase in marketing initiatives and trade shows, partially offset by a decrease in legal expenses as a result of a benefit from settling the Fuji litigation.bad debt expense.

It is possible that future results for any particular quarter or annual period may be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies relating to these proceedings. Information with respect to this disclosure may be found in Note 89 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference.


Future Liquidity Considerations


We expect to continue to review and evaluate potential strategic transactions and alliances that we believe will complement our current or future business. Subject to the “Risk Factors” set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report, if any, as well as those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 201828, 2019 or any other of our subsequently filed reports, and the general disclaimers set forth in our Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements at the outset of this Quarterly Report,MD&A, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations, and the cash available under our 2018 Amended Revolver and our Securitization Program will provide us with sufficient funds in order to fund our expected normal operations and debt payments over the next twelve months. Our longer-term liquidity is contingent upon future operating performance. We may also require additional capital in the future to fund capital expenditures, repayment of debt, acquisitions, strategic transactions or other investments.
As described above, we have significant indebtedness outstanding under our 2018 Credit Agreement, 2025 Senior Notes, and 2028 Senior Notes and the Securitization Program.Notes. These capital requirements could be substantial. The terms of our financing obligations contain covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain transactions and, if not met, may impair our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions. Moreover, our credit facilities also require us to satisfy certain financial covenants. Should our future business and operations be significantly impaired by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions or otherwise, we cannot assure that we will remain in compliance with our current financial covenants. In such event, the factors that adversely affect our business may also similarly adversely affect the capital markets, and we cannot

assure that we would be able to negotiate alternative covenants or alternative financing on favorable terms if at all. Our failure to comply with the covenants contained in our amended and restated credit facilities, including financial covenants, could result in an event of default, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. For a description of risks to our operating performance and our indebtedness, see “Risk Factors” set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report, as well as those described in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2018.28, 2019.


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our interim consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.principles ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition for multiple element arrangements, allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for excess and obsolete inventories, valuations, purchase price allocations and contingent consideration related to business combinations, expected future cash flows including growth rates, discount rates, terminal values and other assumptions used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, estimated fair values of intangible assets and goodwill, amortization methods and periods, warranty reserves, certain accrued expenses, restructuring and other related charges, stock-based compensation, contingent liabilities, tax reserves and recoverability of our net deferred tax assets and related valuation allowances. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate. Any differences may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. For a discussion of how these and other factors may affect our business, see the “Cautionary Statement” above and “Risk Factors” set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report as well as those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 201828, 2019 or any other of our subsequently filed reports.

The critical accounting estimates that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements presented in this report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2018.28, 2019. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies or estimates from those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2018 with the exception of our critical accounting policies related to the adoption of ASC Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606) effective September 30, 2018, as described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included herein.28, 2019.


Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Financial Instruments, Other Financial Instruments, and Derivative Commodity Instruments. Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, cost-method equity investments, insuranceforeign currency contracts, interest rate cap and interest rate swap agreements, forward foreign currencyinsurance contracts, accounts payable and debt obligations. Except for our outstanding 2025 Senior Notes and 2028 Senior Notes, the fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amount. The fair value of our 2025 Senior Notes and 2028 Senior Notes as of March 30, 201928, 2020 was approximately $939.3$947.6 million and $395.9$402.1 million, respectively. Amounts outstanding under our 2018 Credit Agreement and Securitization Program of $1.6$2.2 billion and $207.0 million, respectively, as of March 30, 201928, 2020 are subject to variable rates of interest based on current market rates, and as such, we believe the carrying amount of these obligations approximates fair value.
Primary Market Risk Exposures. Our primary market risk exposure is in the areas of interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk. We incur interest expense on borrowings outstanding under our 2025 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes, and 2018 Credit Agreement as well as under ourand Securitization Program. The 2025 Senior Notes and 2028 Senior Notes have fixed interest rates. Borrowings under our 2018 Credit Agreement currently bear interest at the Eurocurrency Rate (i.e., Libor)LIBOR) plus the applicable margin of 1.375% per annum. Borrowings under our Securitization Program currently bear interest at LiborLIBOR plus the applicable margin of 0.70%0.71%.
As noted above, as of March 30, 2019,28, 2020, there was $1.6$2.23 billion of aggregate principal outstanding under the 2018 Credit Agreement, including amounts borrowed under the 2018 Amended Revolver, and $207.0 million aggregate principal outstanding under the securitization program.Agreement. Since these debt obligations are variable rate instruments, our interest expense associated with these instruments is subject to change. A 10% adverse movement (increase in LIBOR rate) would increase annual interest expense by approximately $4.5$5.0 million. We entered into multiple interest rate cap agreements and an interest rate swap agreement to help mitigate the interest rate volatility associated with the variable rate interest on the amounts outstanding. The critical terms of the interest rate caps and interest rate swap were designed to mirror the terms of our LIBOR-based borrowings under the 2018 Credit Agreement and prior credit agreement, and therefore the interest rate caps and interest rate swap are highly effective at

offsetting the cash flows being hedged. We designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges of the variability of the LIBOR-based interest payments on $1.0 billion of principal. These interest rate cap agreements expire through December 23, 2020.2020, and the interest rate swap contract expires on December 17, 2023.
The UK Financial Conduct Authority announced in 2017 that it intends to phase out LIBOR by the end of 2021. If changes are made to the method of calculating LIBOR or LIBOR ceases to exist, we may need to amend certain contracts, including our 2018 Credit Agreement and related interest rate cap and swap agreements, and we cannot predict what alternative rate or benchmark would be negotiated or the extent to which this would adversely affect our interest rate and the effectiveness of our interest rate hedging activity.
The return from cash and cash equivalents will vary as short-term interest rates change. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates, however, would not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk. Our international business is subject to risks, including, but not limited to: unique economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions, and foreign exchange rate volatility. Accordingly, our future results could be materially adversely impacted by changes in these or other factors.


We conduct business worldwide and maintain sales and service offices outside the United States as well as manufacturing facilities in Costa Rica and the United Kingdom. Our international sales are denominated in a number of currencies, primarily the Euro, U.S. dollar, UK Pound and Renminbi. The majority of our foreign subsidiaries' functional currency is the local currency, although certain foreign subsidiaries functional currency is the U.S. dollar based on the nature of their operations or functions. Our revenues denominated in foreign currencies are positively affected when the U.S. dollar weakens against them and adversely effectedaffected when the U.S. dollar strengthens. Fluctuations in foreign currency rates could affect our sales, cost of goods and operating margins and could result in exchange losses. In addition, currency devaluations can result in a loss if we hold deposits of that currency. We have executed forward foreign currency contracts and foreign currency option contracts to hedge a portion of results denominated in the Euro, UK Pound, Australian dollar, Japanese Yen, Chinese Yuan and Canadian dollar. These contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting. As a result, we may experience volatility in our Consolidated Statements of Income due to (i) the impact of unrealized gains and losses reported in other income, net from the mark-to-market of outstanding contracts and (ii) realized

gains and losses recognized in other income, net, whereas the offsetting economic gains and losses are reported in the line item of the underlying cash flow, for example, revenue.
We believe that the operating expenses of our international subsidiaries that are incurred in local currencies will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our operating results and certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are affected by changes in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar against those currencies. Our expenses, denominated in foreign currencies, are positively affected when the U.S. dollar strengthens against them and adversely affected when the U.S. dollar weakens. However, we believe that the foreign currency exchange risk is not significant. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in foreign currencies in which we transact would not have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.


Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of March 30, 2019,28, 2020, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 30, 2019.28, 2020.

An evaluation was also performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. That evaluation did not identify any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our latest 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.
Information with respect to this Item may be found in Note 89 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
Additional information on our commitments and contingencies can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended September 29, 2018.28, 2019.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.


There are no material changes from the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended September 29, 201828, 2019 or any of our subsequently filed reports.reports, except for the risk factor described below.

Our results of operations have been adversely affected, and our results of operations, cash flow and financial position could in the future be materially adversely impacted by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and associated economic disruptions.

The pandemic caused by the spread of the novel strain of coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption in the markets we sell our products into and operate in, primarily the U.S, Europe and Asia-Pacific. In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the spread of COVID-19 has negatively impacted business and healthcare activity globally.

Decreased demand for products. As healthcare systems respond to the increasing demands of managing COVID-19 and the resulting economic uncertainties, governments around the world have imposed measures designed to reduce the transmission of COVID-19 and individuals are responding to the fears of contracting COVID-19. In particular, elective procedures and exams are being delayed or cancelled, there has been a significant reduction in physician office visits, and hospitals are postponing or cancelling capital purchases as well as limiting or eliminating services. As further discussed in this Report, these responses have had, and we believe will continue to have, a negative impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition. While the effects of COVID-19 and the associated economic disruptions were felt primarily in the second half of March, in many of our end-markets and earlier in Asia, primarily China, we expect the effect on our financial results in the third fiscal quarter and future periods to be more significant. We believe that COVID-19’s adverse impact on our operating results, cash flows and financial condition will be primarily driven by: the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic; the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the U.S. and international healthcare systems, the U.S. economy and worldwide economy; and the timing, scope and effectiveness of U.S. and international governmental responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions.

Potential disruption in manufacturing, distribution and supply chain. In addition to adversely affecting demand for our products, COVID-19 and associated economic disruptions could have an adverse impact on our manufacturing capacity, supply chains and distribution systems, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that we, other businesses and governments are taking. Although we have not experienced significant manufacturing or supply chain difficulties as a result of COVID-19, we may in the future. A reduction or interruption in any of our manufacturing processes could have a material adverse effect on our business.

Potential liquidity and credit impacts. The terms of our financing obligations contain covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain transactions and, if not met, may impair our ability to respond to changing business and economic conditions. Moreover, our credit facilities also require us to satisfy certain financial covenants. Should our future business and operations be significantly impaired by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions or otherwise, we cannot assure that we will remain in compliance with our current financial covenants. In such event, the factors that adversely affect our business may also similarly adversely affect the capital markets, and we cannot assure that we would be able to negotiate alternative covenants or alternative financing on favorable terms if at all. Our failure to comply with the covenants contained in our amended and restated credit facilities, including financial covenants, could result in an event of default, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We refer you to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Position and Results of Operations” for a more detailed discussions of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated economic disruptions.


We may not realize anticipated revenue from our COVID-19 diagnostic assays, including one assay still under development.

We have developed an assay to detect the virus causing COVID-19 which runs on our Panther Fusion system (PCR assay), and we are in the process of developing another COVID-19 assay to run on our more widely distributed Panther system (TMA assay). Our development of the TMA assay has not yet been completed. We cannot assure that we will be able to complete development or obtain the requisite authorizations for the TMA assay on a timely basis or within budget, if at all. Also, other companies are working to produce or have produced tests for COVID-19 which may lead to the diversion of customers as well as governmental and quasi-governmental funding away from us and toward other companies. Additionally, we are committing financial resources and personnel to the development of the COVID-19 TMA assay and production of both assays. This resource allocation may cause delays in or otherwise negatively impact our other development programs or production capacities. Our business could be negatively impacted by our allocation of significant resources to a global health threat that is unpredictable and could dissipate; there is no guarantee that current or anticipated demand will continue, or if demand does continue, that we will be able to produce in quantities to meet the demand.

(1)For the majority of restricted stock units granted, the number of shares issued on the date that the restricted stock units vest is net of the minimum statutory tax withholding requirements that we pay in cash to the appropriate taxing authorities on behalf of our employees. These repurchases of our common stock were to cover employee income tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units under our equity incentive plans.


(2)On June 13, 2018, the Board of Directors authorized another share repurchase plan to repurchase up to $500.0 million of our outstanding common stock. This share repurchase plan, which replaced the prior plan, was effective August 1, 2018 and expires on June 13, 2023.March 27, 2020. On November 19, 2019, the Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase plan to repurchase up to $500.0 million of our outstanding common stock, effective at the beginning of the third quarter of fiscal 2020. On March 2, 2020, the Board of Directors approved accelerating the effective date of the new share repurchase plan from March 27, 2020 to March 2, 2020.


(3)On November 22, 2019, Board of Directors authorized the further repurchase of up to $205 million of our outstanding shares pursuant to an accelerated share repurchase ("ASR") agreement with Goldman Sachs. Under the ASR, Hologic agreed to purchase $205 million of Hologic’s common stock. The initial delivery was 3.3 million shares for which the Company has initially allocated $164.0 million of the $205 million paid to Goldman Sachs, based on the current market price of $50.02. The ASR was completed in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. At settlement, Goldman Sachs delivered an additional 0.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock.
