Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence (generally, when the Company has an investment of less than 20.0% and no representation on the investee's board of directors) are accounted for at fair value, or at cost minus impairment adjusted for observable price changes in orderly transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer for those investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The Company does not have any significant variable interest entities or special purpose entities whose financial results are not included in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

The financial statements of the Company's operating foreign subsidiaries are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates prevailing during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are included in “Accumulated other comprehensive ~~income.~~income (loss).”

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of operations, cash flows, and financial position have been made. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the United States (U.S.) Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s ~~2020~~fiscal year 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K (Annual Report). Therefore, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In ~~August 2018,~~October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a new accounting standard to ~~reduce, modify, and add to~~improve the ~~disclosure requirements on defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans.~~accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination. The Company early adopted this standard effective January 1, ~~2021.~~2022. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to simplify accounting for income taxes and remove, modify, and add to the disclosure requirements of income taxes. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to clarify the interaction of the accounting for equity securities and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2021. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

~~New Accounting Pronouncements~~

In March 2020, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to provide optional expedients and exceptions if certain conditions are met for applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. The expedients and exceptions in the standard are effective between March 12,

(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

2020, and December 31, 2022. The Company has not elected to apply any of the expedients or exceptions for the period ended March 31, 2021, and is currently evaluating the impact this new standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2021, the FASB issued a new accounting standard to clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions relative to reference rate reform for contract modification and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. An entity may elect to apply the amendment on a full retrospective basis as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or on a prospective basis to new modifications from any date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to the date of the issuance. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

~~Contract costs~~respectively.

DD incurs sales commissions in the process of obtaining contracts with customers. Sales commissions that are payable upon contract award are recognized as assets and amortized over the expected contract term, along with related payroll tax expense. The amortization of commission expense is based on the weighted average contract duration for all commissionable awards in the respective business in which the commission expense is paid, which approximates the period over which goods and services are transferred to the customer. The amortization period of sales commissions ranges from approximately 1 to 5 years, depending on the business. For businesses that enter into primarily short-term contracts, the Company applies the practical expedient, which allowsContract costs to obtain a contract to be expensed when incurred if the amortization period of the assets that would otherwise have been recognized is one year or less. Amortization of assets from sales commissions is included in selling, general, and administrative expense.

DD incurs costs to fulfill contracts with customers. Contract fulfillment costs include software implementation costs and setup costs for certain market access solutions. These costs are recognized as assets and amortized over the expected term of the contract to which the implementation relates, which is the period over which services are expected to be provided to the customer. This period typically ranges from 2 to 5 years. Amortization of deferred contract fulfillment costs is included in cost of goods sold.

~~Receivables, Unbilled Services and Unearned Revenue~~

Unbilled services are comprised primarily of unbilled receivables, but also include contract assets. A contract asset is recorded when a right to payment has been earned for work performed, but billing and payment for that work is determined by certain contractual milestones, whereas unbilled receivables are billable upon the passage of time. While the Company attempts to negotiate terms that provide for billing and payment of services prior or in close proximity to the provision of services, this is not always possible and there are fluctuations in the level of unbilled services and unearned revenue from period to period. The following table provides information about receivables, unbilled services, and unearned revenue (contract liabilities) from contracts with customers which primarily exist within DD.

March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020
Receivables, which are included in accounts receivable $ 1,007.2 $ 1,001.5
Unbilled services 579.5 548.1
Unearned revenue 522.3 492.2

Revenues recognized during the period, that were included in the unearned revenue balance at the beginning of the period for the three months ended March 31, 2021, and 2020, were $152.3 and $121.8, respectively.

Credit Loss Rollforward

The Company estimates future expected losses on accounts receivable, unbilled services and notes receivable over the remaining collection period of the instrument. The rollforward for the allowance for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 is as follows:

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
Accounts Receivable Unbilled Services Note and Other Receivables Total

Performance Obligations Under Long-Term Contracts

Long-term contracts at the Company consist primarily of fully managed clinical studies within DD. The amount of existing performance obligations under such long-term contracts unsatisfied were $6,069.8 and $5,563.4 as of March 31, 2022, and 2021, ~~was $5,563.4.~~respectively. The Company expects to recognize revenue over the remaining contract term of the individual projects, with contract terms generally ranging from 1 to 8 years.

Within DD, revenues of ~~$16.5~~$31.7 and ~~$9.7~~$16.5 were recognized during the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, from performance obligations that were satisfied in previous periods. This revenue primarily relates to adjustments related to changes in scope in full service clinical studies, and to a lesser extent, changes in estimates.

3. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

On February 18, 2022, the Company closed its acquisition of Personal Genome Diagnostics Inc. (PGDx), a leader in cancer genomics with a portfolio of comprehensive liquid biopsy and tissue-based products, for approximately $455.1 in cash. The purchase considerations for this acquisition have been allocated under the acquisition method of accounting to the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired, including approximately $270.0 in identifiable intangible assets and a residual amount of non-tax deductible goodwill of approximately $286.2. The amortization period for technology intangible assets acquired from this business is 12 years. The acquisition was made primarily to complement and accelerate the Company’s existing liquid biopsy capabilities and expand the Company’s leading oncology portfolio of next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based genomic profiling capabilities. The transaction includes two milestone earnout payments, with one based on the successful development of the in-process testing and the other based on revenue. The Company has recorded an estimate of $90.0 for this contingent consideration. The excess of the fair value of the consideration conveyed over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The preliminary valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, include the following:


	Amounts Acquired During Quarter Ended March 31, 2022

Accounts receivable	$	4.1
Unbilled services	2.9
Inventories	2.6
Prepaid expenses and other	1.2
Property, plant and equipment	9.9

Goodwill	286.2
Intangible assets	270.0
Other assets	3.0
Total assets acquired	$	579.9
Accounts payable	4.1
Accrued expenses and other	24.1
Unearned revenue	3.3
Deferred income taxes	17.2
Other liabilities	76.1
Total liabilities acquired	124.8
Net assets acquired	$	455.1

The purchase price allocation for several transactions are still preliminary and subject to change. The areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate primarily to intangible assets, goodwill, and the impact of finalizing deferred taxes. Accordingly, adjustments may be made as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the valuation date. Any adjustments will be recorded in the period in which they are identified.

(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company acquired a business and related assets for approximately $34.1 in cash within Dx. The purchase consideration for the acquisition in the three months ended March 31, 2021, has been allocated under the acquisition method of accounting to the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired, including approximately $17.6 in identifiable intangible assets and a residual amount of non-tax deductible goodwill of approximately $15.6. The amortization periods for intangible assets acquired from the business range from 5 to 15 years for customer relationships and non-compete agreements. The acquisition was made primarily to expand the Company's services for hospitals and health system laboratories. The excess of the fair value of the consideration conveyed over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill reflects the Company's expectations to utilize the acquired business' workforce and established relationships and the benefits of being able to leverage operational efficiencies with favorable growth opportunities in these markets.

On February 9, 2022, the Company entered into agreements to create a comprehensive strategic relationship with Ascension, a national health system. The Company intends to manage Ascension’s hospital-based laboratories and purchase select assets of the health system’s outreach laboratory business. The transactions are subject to customary closing conditions and applicable regulatory approvals. On March 9, 2022, the Company announced it has entered into a strategic laboratory relationship with Prisma Health. The Company will acquire select assets of Prisma Health’s outreach laboratory business.

Senior Notes

On May 26, 2021, the Company issued new senior notes representing $1,000.0 in debt securities and consisting of $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 1.55% senior notes due 2026 and $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 2.70% senior notes due 2031. Interest on these notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. Net proceeds from the offering of these notes were $989.4 after deducting underwriting discounts and other expenses of the offering. The net proceeds were used, along with cash on hand, to redeem, prior to maturity, the Company's outstanding 3.20% senior notes due February 1, 2022 and 3.75% senior notes due August 23, 2022.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements for its 2.70% senior notes due 2031 with an aggregate notional amount of $500.0 and variable interest rates based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.0706% to hedge against changes in the fair value of a portion of the Company's long-term debt. These interest rate swaps are included in other long-term liabilities and deducted from the value of the senior notes with an aggregate fair value of $31.3 at March 31, 2022.

~~9. INCOME TAXES~~Accumulated Other Comprehensive Earnings (Loss)

The ~~Company does not recognize a tax benefit unless it concludes that it is more likely than not that the benefit will be sustained on audit by the taxing authority based solely on the technical merits~~components of the associated tax position. If the recognition threshold is met, the Company recognizes a tax benefit measured at the largest amount of the tax benefit that it believes is greater than 50% likely to be realized.accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) are as follows:

The 2021 tax rate was favorable to the 2020 tax rate due primarily to the 2020 impairment charges for which either no tax benefit was recorded (as they were not deductible) or the associated tax assets required a full valuation allowance.

The gross unrecognized income tax benefits were $48.9 and $48.8 at March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. It is anticipated that the amount of the unrecognized income tax benefits will change within the next 12 months; however, these changes are not expected to have a significant impact on the results of operations, cash flows or the financial position of the Company.

As of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, $46.8 and $46.7, respectively, are the approximate amounts of gross unrecognized income tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions totaled $8.7 and $8.3 as of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal income tax matters for years through 2016. Substantially all material state and local and foreign income tax matters have been concluded through 2015 and 2011, respectively.

~~The Company has various state and foreign income tax examinations ongoing throughout the year. The Company believes adequate provisions have been recorded related to all open tax years.~~

~~10.~~8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved from time to time in various claims and legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions, and other litigation (including those described in more detail below), arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of these actions involve claims that are substantial in amount. These matters include, but are not limited ~~to,~~to: intellectual property disputes; commercial and contract disputes; professional liability claims; employee-related matters; transaction related disputes; securities and corporate law matters; and inquiries, including subpoenas and other civil investigative demands, from governmental agencies, Medicare or Medicaid payers and MCOs reviewing billing practices or requesting comment on allegations of billing irregularities that are brought to their attention through billing audits or third parties. The Company receives civil investigative demands or other inquiries from various governmental bodies in the ordinary course of its business. Such inquiries can relate to the Company or other parties, including physicians and other health care providers. The Company works cooperatively to respond to appropriate requests for information.

The Company also is named from time to time in suits brought under the qui tam provisions of the False Claims Act and comparable state laws. These suits typically allege that the Company has made false statements and/or certifications in connection with claims for payment from U.S. federal or state healthcare programs. The suits may remain under seal (hence, unknown to the Company) for some time while the government decides whether to intervene on behalf of the qui tam plaintiff. Such claims are an inevitable part of doing business in the healthcare field today.

The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all statutes, regulations, and other requirements applicable to its commercial laboratory operations and drug development support services. The healthcare diagnostics and drug development industries are, however, subject to extensive regulation, and the courts have not interpreted many of the applicable statutes and regulations. Therefore, the applicable statutes and regulations could be interpreted or applied by a prosecutorial, regulatory, or judicial authority in a manner that would adversely affect the Company. Potential sanctions for violation of these statutes and regulations include significant civil and criminal penalties, fines, the loss of various licenses, certificates, and authorizations, additional liabilities from third-party claims, and/or exclusion from participation in government programs.

Many of the current claims and legal actions against the Company are in preliminary stages, and many of these cases seek an indeterminate amount of damages. The Company records an aggregate legal reserve, which is determined using calculations based on historical loss rates and assessment of trends experienced in settlements and defense costs. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 450 “Contingencies,” the Company establishes reserves for judicial, regulatory, and arbitration matters outside the aggregate legal reserve if and when those matters present loss contingencies that are both

~~INDEX~~

~~NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)~~

probable and estimable and would exceed the aggregate legal reserve. When loss contingencies are not both probable and estimable, the Company does not establish separate reserves.

The Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably probable loss for the proceedings described in more detail below in which damages either have not been specified or, in the Company's judgment, are unsupported and/or exaggerated and (i) the proceedings are in early stages; (ii) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions; (iii) there are significant factual issues to be resolved; and/or (iv) there are novel legal issues to be presented. For these proceedings, however, the Company does not believe, based on currently available information, that the outcomes will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, though the outcomes could be material to the Company's operating results or cash flows for any particular period, depending, in part, upon the operating results for such period.

As previously reported, the Company responded to an October 2007 subpoena from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Office of Inspector General's regional office in New York. On August 17, 2011, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York unsealed a False Claims Act lawsuit, United States of America ex rel. NPT Associates v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, which alleges that the Company offered UnitedHealthcare kickbacks in the form

(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)

of discounts in return for Medicare business. The Plaintiff's Third Amended Complaint further alleges that the Company's billing practices violated the False Claims Acts of 14 states and the District of Columbia. The lawsuit seeks actual and treble damages and civil penalties for each alleged false claim, as well as recovery of costs, attorney's fees, and legal expenses. ~~Neither the U.S. government nor any state government has intervened in the lawsuit.~~ The Company's Motion to Dismiss was granted in October 2014 and Plaintiff was granted the right to replead. On January 11, 2016, Plaintiff filed a motion requesting leave to file an amended complaint under seal and to vacate the briefing schedule for the Company's Motion to Dismiss, while the government ~~reviews~~reviewed the amended complaint. The Court granted the motion and vacated the briefing dates. Plaintiff then filed the Amended Complaint under seal. On August 24, 2021, the U.S. government filed a notice indicating that it did not intend to intervene in the matter. On October 27, 2021, the Fourth Amended Complaint was unsealed. The Fourth Amended Complaint is similar to the Third Amended Complaint in that it alleges that the Company offered UnitedHealthcare kickbacks in the form of discounts in return for Medicare and Medicaid business, and it further alleges that the Company unlawfully charged Medicare amounts substantially in excess of its alleged usual charges. Similar to the Third Amended Complaint, the Fourth Amended Complaint alleges violations of the federal False Claims Act and the False Claims Act of 14 states and the District of Columbia. On February 3, 2022, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss all claims. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.

In addition, the Company has received various other subpoenas since 2007 related to Medicaid billing. In October 2009, the Company received a subpoena from the State of Michigan Department of Attorney General seeking documents related to its billing to Michigan Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. In October 2013, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand from the State of Texas Office of the Attorney General requesting documents related to its billing to Texas Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. On October 5, 2018, the Company received a second Civil Investigative Demand from the State of Texas Office of the Attorney General requesting documents related to its billing to Texas Medicaid. The Company cooperated with this request. On January 26, 2021, the Company was notified that a qui tam Petition was pending under seal in the District Court, 250th Judicial District, Travis County, Texas, and that the State of Texas has intervened. On April 14, 2021, the Petition was unsealed. The Petition alleges that the Company submitted claims for reimbursement to Texas Medicaid that were higher than permitted under Texas Medicaid’s alleged “best price” regulations, and that the Company offered remuneration to Texas health care providers in the form of discounted pricing for certain laboratory testing services in exchange for the providers’ referral of Texas Medicaid business to the Company. The Petition seeks actual and double damages and civil penalties, as well as recovery of costs, attorney's fees, and legal expenses. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.

On August 31, 2015, the Company was served with a putative class action lawsuit, Patty Davis v. Laboratory Corporation of America, et al.,, filed in the Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit for Hillsborough County, Florida. The complaint alleges that the Company violated the Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act by billing patients who were collecting benefits under the Workers' Compensation Statutes. The lawsuit seeks injunctive relief and actual and statutory damages, as well as recovery of attorney's fees and legal expenses. In April 2017, the Circuit Court granted the Company’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. The Plaintiff appealed the Circuit Court’s ruling to the Florida Second District Court of Appeal. On October 16, 2019, the Court of Appeal reversed the Circuit Court’s dismissal, but certified a controlling issue of Florida law to the Florida Supreme Court. On February 17, 2020, the Florida Supreme Court accepted jurisdiction of the lawsuit. The Court held oral arguments on December 9, 2020. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.

In December 2014, the Company received a Civil Investigative Demand issued pursuant to the U.S. False Claims Act from the U.S. Attorney's Office for South Carolina, which requested information regarding alleged remuneration and services provided by the Company to physicians who also received draw and processing/handling fees from competitor laboratories Health Diagnostic Laboratory, Inc. (HDL) and Singulex, Inc. (Singulex). The Company cooperated with the request. On April 4, 2018, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina, Beaufort Division, unsealed a False Claims Act lawsuit, United States of America ex rel. Scarlett Lutz, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, which alleges that the Company's financial relationships with referring physicians violate federal and state anti-kickback statutes. The Plaintiffs' Fourth Amended Complaint further alleges that the Company conspired with HDL and Singulex in violation of the Federal False Claims Act and the California and Illinois insurance fraud prevention acts by facilitating HDL's and Singulex's offers of

illegal inducements to physicians and the referral of patients to HDL and Singulex for laboratory testing. The lawsuit seeks actual and treble damages and civil penalties for each alleged false claim, as well as recovery of costs, attorney's fees, and legal expenses. Neither the U.S. government nor any state government has intervened in the lawsuit. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss seeking the dismissal of the claims asserted under the California and Illinois insurance fraud prevention statutes, the conspiracy claim, the reverse False Claims Act claim, and all claims based on the theory that the Company performed medically unnecessary testing. On January 16, 2019, the Court entered an order granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss. The Court dismissed the Plaintiffs' claims based on the theory that the Company performed medically unnecessary testing, the claims asserted under the California and Illinois insurance fraud prevention statutes, and the reverse False Claims

Act claim. The Court denied the Motion to Dismiss as to the conspiracy claim. On March 12, 2021, the Company filed a Motion for Summary Judgment related to all remaining claims. On June 16, 2021, the Court denied the Company’s Motion for Summary Judgment. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.

Prior to the Company's acquisition of Sequenom, Inc. (Sequenom) between August 15, 2016 and August 24, 2016, six putative class-action lawsuits were filed on behalf of purported Sequenom stockholders (captioned ~~Malkoff v. Sequenom, Inc., et al.,~~ ~~No. 16-cv-02054- JAH-BLM, Gupta v. Sequenom, Inc., et al., No. 16-cv-02084-JAH-KSC,~~ ~~Fruchter v.

Sequenom, Inc., et al., No. 16-cv-02128-AJB-MDD, and~~ ~~Cusumano v. Sequenom, Inc., et al.~~, No. 16-cv-02134-LAB-JMA) in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California challenging the acquisition transaction. The complaints asserted claims against Sequenom and members of its board of directors (the Individual Defendants). The ~~Nunes~~ action also named the Company and Savoy Acquisition Corp. (Savoy), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as defendants. The complaints alleged that the defendants violated Sections 14(e), 14(d)(4) and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by failing to disclose certain allegedly material information. In addition, the complaints in the ~~Malkoff~~ ~~action, the~~ ~~Asiatrade~~ ~~action, and the~~ ~~Cusumano~~ action alleged that the Individual Defendants breached their fiduciary duties to Sequenom shareholders. The actions sought, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining the merger. On August 30, 2016, the parties entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in each of the above-referenced actions. On September 6, 2016, the Court entered an order consolidating for all pre-trial purposes the six individual actions described above under the caption ~~In re Sequenom, Inc. Shareholder Litig., Lead Case No. 16-cv-02054-JAH-BLM, and designating the complaint from the~~ ~~Malkoff~~ action as the operative complaint for the consolidated action. On November 11, 2016, two competing motions were filed by two separate stockholders (James Reilly and Shikha Gupta) seeking appointment as lead plaintiff under the terms of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. On June 7, 2017, the Court entered an order declaring Mr. Reilly as the lead plaintiff and approving Mr. Reilly's selection of lead counsel. The parties agree that the MOU has been terminated. The Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint on July 24, 2017, and the Defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss, which remains pending. On March 13, 2019, the Court stayed the action in its entirety pending the U.S. Supreme Court's anticipated decision in ~~Emulex Corp. v. Varjabedian. On April 23, 2019, however, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed the writ of certiorari in~~ ~~Emulex~~ ~~as improvidently granted. The Company will vigorously defend the lawsuit.~~

On March 10, 2017, the Company was served with a putative class action lawsuit, Victoria Bouffard, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint alleges that the Company's patient list prices unlawfully exceed the rates negotiated for the same services with private and public health insurers in violation of various state consumer protection laws. The lawsuit also alleges breach of implied contract or quasi-contract, unjust enrichment, and fraud. The lawsuit seeks statutory, exemplary, and punitive damages, injunctive relief, and recovery of attorney's fees and costs. In May 2017, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' Complaint and Strike Class Allegations; the Motion to Dismiss was granted in March 2018 without prejudice. On October 10, 2017, a second putative class action lawsuit, Sheryl Anderson, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint contained similar allegations and sought similar relief to the Bouffard complaint, and added additional counts regarding state consumer protection laws. On August 10, 2018, the Plaintiffs filed an Amended Complaint, which consolidated the Bouffard and Anderson actions. On September 10, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiffs' Amended Complaint and Strike Class Allegations. On August 16, 2019, the Court entered an order granting in part and denying in part the Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint, and denying the Motion to Strike the Class Allegations. On August 26, 2021, Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Class Certification. On December 29, 2021, a related lawsuit, Nathaniel J. Nolan, et al. v. Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings, was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The complaint alleges that the Company's patient acknowledgement of estimated financial responsibility form is misleading. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgement under the consumer protection laws of Nevada and Florida that the form is materially misleading and deceptive, an injunction barring the use of the form, damages on behalf of an alleged class, and attorney's fees and expenses. On February 28, 2022, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss all claims. The Company will vigorously defend the ~~lawsuit.~~lawsuits.

On April 1, 2019, Covance Research Products was served with a Grand Jury Subpoena issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ) in Miami, Florida requiring the production of documents related to the importation into the United States of live non-human primate shipments originating from or transiting through China, Cambodia, and/or Vietnam from April 1, 2014 through March 28, 2019. The Company is cooperating with the DOJ.

On May 14, 2019, Retrieval-Masters Creditors Bureau, Inc. d/b/a American Medical Collection Agency (AMCA), an external collection agency, notified the Company about a security incident AMCA experienced that may have involved certain personal information about some of the Company’s patients (the AMCA Incident). The Company referred patient balances to

~~(dollars and shares in millions, except per share data)~~

AMCA only when direct collection efforts were unsuccessful. The Company’s systems were not impacted by the AMCA Incident. Upon learning of the AMCA Incident, the Company promptly stopped sending new collection requests to AMCA and stopped AMCA from continuing to work on any pending collection requests from the Company. AMCA informed the Company that it appeared that an unauthorized user had access to AMCA’s system between August 1, 2018, and March 30, 2019, and that AMCA could not rule out the possibility that personal information on AMCA’s system was at risk during that time period. Information on AMCA’s affected system from the Company may have included name, address, and balance information for the patient and person responsible for payment, along with the patient’s phone number, date of birth, referring physician, and date of service. The Company was later informed by AMCA that health insurance information may have been included for some individuals, and because some insurance carriers utilize the Social Security Number as a subscriber identification number, the Social Security Number for some individuals may also have been affected.

Under the Company's present insurance programs, coverage is obtained for catastrophic exposure as well as those risks required to be insured by law or contract. The Company is responsible for the uninsured portion of losses related primarily to general, professional and vehicle liability, certain medical costs and workers' compensation. The self-insured retentions are on a per-occurrence basis without any aggregate annual limit. Provisions for losses expected under these programs are recorded based upon the Company's estimates of the aggregated liability of claims incurred.

The Company has a noncontrolling interest put related to its Ontario subsidiary that has been classified as mezzanine equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The noncontrolling interest put is valued at its contractually determined value, which approximates fair value.

The Company offers certain employees the opportunity to participate in an employee-funded deferred compensation plan (DCP). A participant's deferrals are allocated by the participant to one or more of 16 measurement funds, which are indexed to externally managed funds. From time to time, to offset the cost of the growth in the participant's investment accounts, the Company purchases life insurance policies, with the Company named as beneficiary of the policies. Changes in the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies are based upon earnings and changes in the value of the underlying investments, which are typically invested in a similar manner to the participant's allocations. Changes in the fair value of the DCP obligation are derived using quoted prices in active markets based on the market price per unit multiplied by the number of units. The cash surrender value and the DCP obligations are classified within Level 2 because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments.

Contingent accrued earn-out business acquisition consideration liabilities are measured at fair value using Level 3 valuations. These contingent consideration liabilities were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and are remeasured quarterly based on the then assessed fair value and adjusted if necessary. The increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration payable can result from changes in anticipated revenue levels and changes in assumed discount periods and rates. As the fair value measure is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, they are categorized as Level 3.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, and accounts payable are considered to be representative of their respective fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair market value of the ~~Senior Notes,~~senior notes, based on market pricing, was approximately ~~$5,844.6~~$5,444.5 and ~~$6,121.8~~$5,841.1 as of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. The Company's note and debt instruments are classified as Level 2 instruments, as the fair market values of these instruments are determined using other observable inputs.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022, and 2021, totaled $1,233.5 and ~~2020, totaled~~ $1,890.8, ~~and $323.6,~~ respectively. Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid instruments, such as time deposits, commercial paper, and other money market investments, ~~substantially all of~~ which have original maturities of three months or less.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

During the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company's operations provided ~~$1,157.6~~$356.0 of cash as compared to ~~$203.8~~$1,157.6 during the same period in ~~2020.~~2021. The ~~$953.8 increase~~$801.6 decrease in cash provided from operations in ~~2021~~2022 as compared with the corresponding ~~2020~~2021 period is primarily due to ~~higher~~lower cash earnings and ~~lower~~higher working ~~capital.~~capital requirements.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, was ~~$132.4~~$573.1 as compared to ~~net cash used for investing activities of $106.6~~$132.4 for the three months ended March 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The change in cash used for investing activities was primarily due to an increase in business acquisitions and higher capital expenditures during the three months ended March 31, ~~2021 partially offset by lower capital expenditures.~~2022. Capital expenditures were ~~$95.4~~$117.2 and ~~$106.6~~$95.4 for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used ~~for~~by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, was ~~$450.1~~$17.7 as compared to ~~$102.8~~$450.1 for the three months ended March 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The change in cash flows from financing activities for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, as compared to the three months ended March 31, ~~2020, were~~2021, was primarily due to the repayment of the 2019 Term Loan in ~~February~~ 2021 ~~partially offset by~~and a ~~$31.5 reduction~~decrease of $68.5 in share repurchases.

On May 26, 2021, the Company issued new senior notes representing $1,000.0 in debt securities and consisting of $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 1.55% senior notes due 2026 and $500.0 aggregate principal amount of 2.70% senior notes due 2031. Interest on these notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year. Net proceeds from the offering of these notes were $989.4 after deducting underwriting discounts and other expenses of the offering. The net proceeds were used to redeem, prior to maturity, the Company's outstanding 3.20% senior notes due February 1, 2022 and 3.75% senior notes due August 23, 2022.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company entered into fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements for its 2.70% senior notes due 2031 with an aggregate notional amount of $500.0 and variable interest rates based on three-month LIBOR plus 1.0706%. These instruments are designated as hedges against changes in the fair value of a portion of the Company's long-term debt. The aggregate fair value of $31.3 at March 31, 2022, was included as a component of other long-term liabilities and reduced the reported value of the senior notes.

On April 30, 2021, the Company amended and restated its revolving credit facility. It consists of a five-year revolving facility in the principal amount of up to $1,000.0, with the option of increasing the facility by up to an additional $500.0, ~~(which was previously $350.0),~~ subject to the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders to provide such additional amounts and certain other customary conditions. The Company is required to pay a facility fee on the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility, at a per annum rate ranging from ~~0.100%~~0.10% to ~~0.225% (which was a per annum rate ranging from 0.100% to 0.25% prior to the amendment and restatement)~~0.23%, depending on the Company’s debt ratings. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility will accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Company’s election, either (x) a LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 0.775% to 1.275% or (y) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0% to 0.275%, in each case, depending on the Company’s debt ratings.

Under the Company's revolving credit facility, the Company is subject to negative covenants limiting subsidiary indebtedness and certain other covenants typical for investment grade-rated borrowers and the Company is required to maintain certain leverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the revolving credit facility at March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and expects that it will remain in compliance with its existing debt covenants for the next twelve months. ~~In February 2021, the Company fully repaid the remaining $375.0 of the 2019 Term Loan.~~

INDEX

At March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had ~~$1,890.8~~$1,233.5 of cash and $1,000.0 of available borrowings under its revolving credit facility, which does not mature until 2026.

~~INDEX~~For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company did not repurchase any of the Company's common stock but received 0.6 shares of its common stock, arising from a partial acceleration

from Barclays Bank PLC and a final settlement from Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC in connection with agreements under its ASR program initiated in December 2021. As of March 31, ~~2021, the~~2022, the Company had an outstanding authorization from the board of directors to purchase up to ~~$731.5~~$1,631.5 more of the Company's common ~~stock. The repurchase authorization has~~stock with no expiration date.

Credit Ratings

The Company’s investment grade debt ratings from Moody’s and from Standard and Poor’s (S&P) contribute to its ability to access capital markets. The Company’s expectation is that it will seek to maintain an investment grade debt rating regardless of what, if anything, results from the Company’s current review of its structure and capital allocation strategy.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk (dollars in millions)

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other relevant market rate or price changes. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates, and the Company regularly evaluates its exposure to such changes. The Company addresses its exposure to market risks, principally the market risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, through a controlled program of risk management that includes, from time to time, the use of derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward contracts, and interest rate and cross currency swap agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

Approximately ~~14.0%~~15.7% of the Company's revenues for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and approximately ~~12.8%~~14.0% of the Company's revenue for the three months ended March 31, ~~2020,~~2021, were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. ~~dollar.~~dollar (USD). The Company's financial statements are reported in ~~U.S. dollars~~USD and, accordingly, fluctuations in exchange rates will affect the translation of revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies into ~~U.S. dollars~~USD for purposes of reporting the Company's consolidated financial results. In the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 and the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the most significant currency exchange rate exposures were to the Canadian dollar, Swiss Franc, Euro and British Pound. Excluding the impacts from any outstanding or future hedging transactions, a hypothetical change of 10% in average exchange rates used to translate all foreign currencies to ~~U.S. dollars~~USD would have impacted income before income taxes for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, by approximately $6.7. Gross accumulated currency translation adjustments recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity were ~~$(66.8)~~($74.6) and ~~$(147.5)~~($66.8) at March 31, ~~2021,~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. The Company does not have significant operations in countries in which the economy is considered to be ~~highly-inflationary.~~highly inflationary.

The Company earns revenue from service contracts over a period of ~~several~~time, ranging from months ~~and, in some cases, over a period of several~~to years. Accordingly, exchange rate fluctuations during this period may affect the Company's profitability with respect to such contracts. The Company is also subject to foreign currency transaction risk for fluctuations in exchange rates during the period of time between the consummation and cash settlement of transactions. The Company limits its foreign currency transaction risk through exchange rate fluctuation provisions stated in some of its contracts with customers, or it may hedge transaction risk with foreign currency forward contracts. At March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company had 3027 open foreign exchange forward contracts relating to service contracts with various amounts maturing monthly through April ~~2021~~2022 with a notional value totaling approximately ~~$672.2.~~$711.0. At December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the Company had 3128 open foreign exchange forward contracts relating to service contracts with various amounts maturing monthly through January ~~2021~~2022 with a notional value totaling approximately ~~$601.2.~~$600.7.

The Company is party to ~~U.S. Dollar~~US to Swiss Franc cross-currency swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $600.0, maturing in 2022 and 2025, as a hedge against the impact of foreign exchange movements on its net investment in a Swiss Franc functional currency subsidiary.

Interest Rates

Some of the Company's debt from time to time is subject to interest at variable rates. As a result, fluctuations in interest rates can affect the business. The Company attempts to manage interest rate risk and overall borrowing costs through an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt including by the utilization of derivative financial instruments, primarily interest rate swaps.

INDEX

Borrowings under the Company's term loan credit facility, now repaid, and revolving credit facility are subject to variable interest rates, unless fixed through interest rate swaps or other agreements. As

In May 2021, to hedge against changes in the fair value portion of ~~March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020,~~the Company's long-term debt, the Company ~~had $0.0~~entered into fixed-to-variable interest rate swap agreements for the 2.70% senior notes due 2031 with an aggregate notional value of $500.0 and ~~$375.0, respectively, of unhedged~~ variable ~~debt from the 2019 term loan credit facility and $0.0 and $0.0, respectively, outstanding~~interest rates based on ~~its revolving credit facility.~~three-month LIBOR plus 1.0706%.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company carried out, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and

~~INDEX~~

procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

See Note 108 (Commitments and Contingencies) to the Company’s ~~unaudited~~ condensed consolidated financial statements, above, which is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~The risk factor set forth below revises and supplements~~There have been no material changes in the ~~corresponding~~ risk factors ~~set forth~~that appear in Part I - Item 1A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020. With the exception of the following, there have been no material changes in the risk factors that appear in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.~~

There can be no assurance that the Company’s review of its structure and capital allocation strategy will enhance shareholder value or result in any changes to its structure or capital allocation strategy, and speculation and uncertainty regarding the outcome of this review may adversely impact the business, financial condition, and results of operations.

In March 2021, the Company announced that its board of directors and management team, with the assistance of an independent financial advisor, had initiated a review of the Company’s structure and capital allocation strategy to ensure that the Company is best positioned to unlock shareholder value while the Company continues to support patients and customers around the world. There can be no assurance the review will enhance shareholder value or result in changes to the Company’s structure or capital allocation strategy. In addition, speculation and uncertainty regarding the review process may cause or result in:

~~• disruption of the Company’s business;~~

~~• distraction of the Company’s employees;~~

~~• difficulty in recruiting, hiring, motivating, and retaining talented and skilled personnel;~~

~~• difficulty in maintaining or negotiating and consummating new business or strategic relationships or transactions;~~

~~• adverse impacts on the Company’s ability to incur debt, or refinance existing indebtedness, on favorable terms; and~~

~~• increased stock price volatility.~~

If the Company is unable to mitigate these or other potential risks related to the uncertainty caused by the ongoing review process, it may disrupt the Company’s business or adversely impact its operating results and financial condition in future periods.

The Company’s ability to complete any changes to its structure or capital allocation strategy, if the board of directors decides to pursue any changes, will depend on numerous factors, some of which are outside of the Company’s control, including market conditions, industry trends, and the response of customers, employees and other parties to any such changes. Further, it is not certain what impact any potential changes, or a decision not to pursue any changes, may have on the Company’s stock price, business, financial condition, and results of operations.

~~INDEX~~

Item 5. Other Information

On April 30, 2021, the Company entered into a third amendment and restatement of its existing senior revolving credit facility. The amended and restated revolving credit facility (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”) consists of a five-year revolving facility in the principal amount of up to $1,000.0, with the ability to increase the facility by up to an additional $500.0, subject to the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders to provide such additional amounts and certain other customary conditions. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also provides for a subfacility of up to $100.0 for swingline borrowings and a subfacility of up to $150 for issuances of letters of credit. Bank of America, N.A., is acting as swing line lender and a letter of credit issuer and as administrative agent for a group of financial institutions providing the revolving credit facility. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility is permitted to be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, funding of share repurchases and certain other payments, acquisitions and other investments, and repayment of indebtedness.

Under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the Company is required to maintain a leverage ratio of no greater than 4.00 to 1.00 (provided, that in the event the Company consummates a qualified acquisition, the Company can elect to increase the maximum leverage ratio level to 4.50 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter in which such qualified acquisition is consummated and for the next three consecutive fiscal quarters), and is subject to negative covenants limiting subsidiary indebtedness and certain other covenants typical for investment grade-rated borrowers.

Advances under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility will accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Company’s election, either a LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 0.775% to 1.275%, or a base rate determined according to a prime rate or federal funds rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.275%. Fees are payable on outstanding letters of credit under the amended and restated revolving credit facility at a per annum rate equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR loans, and the Company is required to pay a facility fee on the aggregate commitments under the amended and restated revolving credit facility, at a per annum rate ranging from 0.100% to 0.225%. In each case, the interest margin, facility fee and letter of credit fees payable under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are based on the Company’s senior credit ratings as determined by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s, which are currently BBB and Baa2, respectively.

~~On April 30, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.~~

~~The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1.~~None.
