Progenics Transaction
On October 1, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Initial Merger Agreement”) to acquire Progenics Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: PGNX) (“Progenics” and, such acquisition, the “Progenics Transaction”). The terms of the Initial Merger Agreement were amended and restated on February 20, 2020 (the “Amended Merger Agreement”). Progenics is an oncology company developing innovative medicines and artificial intelligence to find, fight and follow cancer. Under the terms of the Amended Merger Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progenics common stock by means of a merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Progenics in which Progenics stockholders will receive, for each share of Progenics stock held at the time of the closing of the Progenics Transaction, merger consideration consisting of 0.31 of a share of the Company’s common stock and a non-tradeable contingent value right (a “CVR”) tied to the financial performance of PyLTM (18F-DCFPyL), Progenics’ prostate-specific membrane antigen targeted imaging agent designed to visualize prostate cancer currently in late stage clinical development (“PyL”). Each CVR will entitle its holder to receive a pro rata share of aggregate cash payments equal to 40% of U.S. net sales generated by PyL in 2022 and 2023 in excess of $100 million and $150 million, respectively. In no event will the Company’s aggregate payments in respect of the CVRs, together with any other non-stock consideration treated as paid in connection with the Progenics Transaction, exceed 19.9% of the total consideration the Company pays in the prior period have been reclassifiedProgenics Transaction. Following the closing of the Progenics Transaction, the aggregate ownership stake of the former Progenics stockholders will be approximately 40% of the combined company. Progenics’ stockholders will also be entitled to conformappraisal rights as provided under Delaware law.
In addition, pursuant to the current periodAmended Merger Agreement, the holder of each in-the-money option to purchase shares of Progenics common stock under any equity based compensation plan of Progenics (“Progenics Stock Option”) will be entitled to receive in exchange for each such in-the-money option (i) an option to purchase common stock of the Company (each, a “Company Stock Option”) converted based on the 0.31 exchange ratio and (ii) a vested or unvested CVR depending on whether the underlying option is vested. Holders of out-of-the-money Progenics Stock Options will receive Company Stock Options converted on an exchange ratio adjusted based on actual trading prices of common stock of Progenics and the Company prior to the closing of the Progenics Transaction.
The Progenics Transaction was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and requires, among other things, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of Progenics and a majority of votes cast by the holders of the common stock of the Company. The Progenics Transaction is currently expected to close in June 2020, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions. Following the closing of the Progenics Transaction, which the parties intend to

report as tax-deferred to Progenics’ stockholders with respect to the stock component of the merger consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the combined company will continue to be headquartered in North Billerica, Massachusetts and will trade on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol LNTH.
On March 15, 2020, Progenics and LMI entered into a bridge loan agreement, pursuant to which LMI agreed to provide for a secured short-term loan to Progenics on or after May 1, 2020 in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million. The bridge loan matures on the earlier to occur of (a) September 30, 2020 and (b) the date on which Progenics enters into a debt financing or similar arrangements or any amendment to, or replacement of, its existing debt provided by one or more third parties following the termination date of the merger agreement, in either case, having aggregate net cash proceeds that exceed the amount then required to repay all obligations under the bridge loan agreement in full in cash. The bridge loan bears interest at a rate per annum of 9.5% and is secured through the pledge to LMI of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Molecular Insight Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a subsidiary of Progenics (“MIPI”), and any debt of MIPI owed to Progenics.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), a respiratory illness first identified in Wuhan, China, a pandemic. The global spread of COVID-19 has created significant volatility, uncertainty and economic disruption. Governments in affected regions have implemented, and may continue to implement, safety precautions which include quarantines, travel restrictions, business closures, cancellations of public gatherings and other measures as they deem necessary. Many organizations and individuals, including the Company and its employees, are taking additional steps to avoid or reduce infection, including limiting travel and working from home. These measures are disrupting normal business operations both in and outside of affected areas and have had significant negative impacts on businesses and financial statement presentation.
Manufacturing Concentrationsmarkets worldwide.
The Company currently relies on Jubilant HollisterStier (“JHS”)experienced operational and financial impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic beginning late in the first quarter of 2020, including the impact of stay-at-home mandates and related safety measures such as its sole source manufacturerthe delay of DEFINITY, Neurolite, Cardiolite and evacuation vials for TechneLite. The Company has on-going development and technology transfer activities forelective medical procedures, resulting in a next generation DEFINITY product with Samsung BioLogics (“SBL”) locateddecline in Songdo, South Korea, approximately 20 miles southwestthe volume of Seoul, but can give no assurances as to when those technology transfer activities will be completed and whenprocedures using the Company’s products. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company will begin to receive supplyundertook a thorough analysis of all of its discretionary expenses. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company implemented certain cost reduction initiatives, including, among other things, reducing travel and promotional expenses and implementing a next generation DEFINITY product from SBL. In addition, those activities could be adversely affected by on-going political and military tensionshiring freeze through the balance of 2020.
The severity of the material impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Korean peninsula.Company's business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on the Company's customers and suppliers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. While the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows is expected to be material, at least in the short term, given the dynamic nature of this situation, the Company is currently unable to accurately predict the impact of COVID-19 on its overall 2020 operations and financial results or cash flows for the foreseeable future and whether the impact of COVID-19 could lead to potential impairments.

Further, the Company announced thatmust formally document the hedging relationship at inception and, on at least a quarterly basis, continually reevaluate the relationship to ensure it entered into a definitive, exclusive Collaboration and License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with GE Healthcare Limited (“GE Healthcare”) forremains highly effective throughout the continued Phase III development and worldwide commercialization of flurpiridaz F 18, an investigational positron emission tomography myocardial perfusion imaging agent that may improve the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Under the License Agreement, GE Healthcare will complete the worldwide development of flurpiridaz F 18, pursue worldwide regulatory approvals and, if successful, lead a worldwide launch and commercializationlife of the agent, with LMI collaborating on both development and commercialization through a joint steering committee. LMI has an option to co-promote the agent in the U.S. GE Healthcare’s development plan will initially focus on obtaining regulatory approvalhedge. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for flurpiridaz F 18 in the U.S., Japan, Europe and Canada.speculative or trading purposes.

Under the terms of the License Agreement, the Company received an up-front payment of $5.0 million. In addition, the Company is eligible to receive, from GE Healthcare, up to $60 million in regulatory and sales-based milestones and tiered double-digit royalties on U.S. sales and mid-single digit royalties on sales outside the U.S. Because the Company concluded there was only one significant deliverable under the License Agreement, consisting of the license of the product which occurred upon the signing of the License Agreement, the Company recognized $5.0 million associated with entering into the license as revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. In addition, because the Company concluded that the regulatory and sales-based milestones are solely dependent on GE Healthcare’s performance and there are no continuing performance obligations from the Company, all development and sales milestones under the License Agreement are considered non-substantive. As of September 30, 2017, the Company has not recognized revenue for those milestones under the License Agreement and will recognize such revenue in the periods in which the milestones are achieved. Similarly, the Company will recognize royalty revenues in the periods of the sale of the related products, provided that the reported sales are reliably measurable, collectability is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations.

ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”
ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting
This ASU clarifies when to accountprovides optional guidance for a changelimited period of time to ease the terms or conditions of a share–based payment award as a modification. Underpotential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, vesting conditions or classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions.
The new guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modifiedeffects of) reference rate reform on or after the adoption date. The guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning afterfinancial reporting.
March 12, 2020 through December 15, 2017 for all entities. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period for which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance.January 1, 201831, 2022The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and related additional amendments ASU 2015-14, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12, ASU 2016-20, ASU 2017-05, ASU 2017-10
This ASU and related amendments affect any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The guidance in this ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance also includes a set of disclosure requirements that will provide users of financial statements with comprehensive information about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from a reporting organization’s contracts with customers. In August 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date,” which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year.
The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods:
•   A full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or
•   A modified retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures).
January 1, 2018
The Company has established an implementation team which includes third-party specialists to assist in the evaluation and implementation of the new standard. The Company has completed its assessment of the impact of the standards on its contract portfolio by reviewing the Company’s current accounting policies and practices and identifying potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to its revenue contracts. The Company has categorized its customers into multiple customer types and assessed significant customer arrangements within those customer types. The Company is currently in the process of formalizing its conclusion. At this time, the Company does not anticipate a significant impact to its revenue upon adoption of the new standard. The Company, in part due to the limited anticipated impact, will utilize the modified retrospective approach of adopting the ASU. In addition, during 2017 the Company has begun to identify and implement, if necessary, appropriate changes to its business processes, systems and controls to support recognition and disclosure under the new standard.

The Company’s performance obligations are typically part of contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less. As such, the Company is not disclosing the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially satisfied) as of the end of the reporting period.
4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability of fair value measurements, financial instruments are categorized based on a hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:
Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 — Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.) and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 1 — Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect a Company’s estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.
Level 2 — Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.) and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect a Company’s estimates about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.
At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of money market funds.market funds and interest rate swaps. The Company invests excess cash from its operating cash accounts in overnight investments and reflects these amounts in cash and cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of the interest rate swaps are determined based on observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and reflects the contractual terms of these instruments, including the period to maturity. Please refer to Note 10, “Derivative Instruments”, for further details on the interest rate swaps.

The Company provides for income taxes at the end of each interim period based on the estimated effective tax rate for the full year, in addition toadjusted for any discrete events which impactare recorded in the interim period.period they occur. The Company’s effective tax rate in fiscal 2020 differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% principally due to the change in valuation allowanceimpact of state taxes and the rate impactaccrual of interest on uncertain tax positions. Cumulative adjustments to the tax provision are recorded in the interim period in which a change in the estimated annual effective tax rate is determined. The Company’s income tax provision was $0.8 million and $20,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $2.1 million and $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.expense is presented below:

The Company regularly assesses its ability to realize its deferred tax assets. Assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets requires significant management judgment. In determining whether its deferred tax assets are more-likely-than-not realizable, the Company evaluated all available positive and negative evidence, and weighed the objective evidence and expected impact. Evidence theThe Company considered included its history of net operating losses, which resulted in the Company recordingcontinues to record a full valuation allowance of $1.2 million against its domesticthe net deferred tax assets beginning in 2011, and in each year thereafter. The Company was profitable on a cumulative basis for the three-year period ended September 30, 2017, but substantially all of that profitability was achieved during 2016 and the nine months ended September 30, 2017.its U.K. subsidiary.
The Company continues to evaluate other negative evidence including customer concentration and contractual risk, DEFINITY supplier risk, the risk of Moly supply availability and cost, and certain product development risks, all of which provide for uncertainties around the Company’s future level of profitability. Based on its review of all available evidence, the Company determined that it has not yet attained a sustained level of profitability sufficient to outweigh the objectively verifiable negative evidence, and has recorded a full valuation allowance against its domestic net deferred tax assets at September 30, 2017. The Company will continue to assess the level of the valuation allowance required. If a sufficient weight of positive evidence exists in future periods to support a release of some or all of the valuation allowance recorded against domestic deferred tax assets, such a release would likely have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations in that future period.
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of the medical imaging business from Bristol-Myers Squibb (“BMS”) in 2008, the Company recorded a liability for uncertain tax positions related to the acquired business and simultaneously entered into a tax indemnification agreement with BMS relatedunder which BMS agreed to certainindemnify the Company for any payments made to settle those uncertain tax obligations arising priorpositions with the taxing authorities. Accordingly, a long-term receivable is recorded to account for the expected value to the acquisitionCompany of future indemnification payments, net of actual tax benefits received, to be paid on behalf of the Company for which the Company has the primary legal obligation.by BMS. The tax indemnification receivable is recognizedrecorded within other long-term assets. The changes in the tax indemnification asset are recognized within other income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
In accordance with the Company’s accounting policy, the change in the contingent tax liability, and penalties and interest associated with these obligations (net of any offsetting federal or state benefit) is recognized within theincome tax provision.

The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying value of an asset or group of assets may not be recoverable.  As a result of a decline in expected future cash flows and $11.7 millionthe effect of COVID-19 related to certain other nuclear legacy manufacturing assets in the U.S. segment, the Company determined certain impairment triggers had occurred. Accordingly, the Company performed an undiscounted cash flow analysis as of March 31, 2020. Based on the undiscounted cash flow analysis, the Company determined that the manufacturing assets had net carrying values that exceeded their estimated undiscounted future cash flows. The Company then estimated the fair values of the asset group based on their discounted cash flows. The carrying value exceeded the fair value and $8.1as a result, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment of $7.3 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.March 31, 2020 in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
7.8. Asset Retirement Obligations

The Company has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $28.2 million surety bond.
The fair value of a liability for asset retirement obligations is recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. As of September 30, 2017, the liability is measured at the present value of the obligation expected to be incurred, of approximately $26.9 million, and is adjusted in subsequent periods as accretion expense is recorded.

8. Financing Arrangements
On March 30, 2017, the Company refinanced its previous $365 million seven-year term loan agreement (the facility thereunder, the “2015 Term Facility”) with a new five-year $275 million term loan facility (the “2017 Term Facility” and the loans thereunder, the “Term Loans”). In addition, the Company replaced its previous $50.0 million five-year asset based loan facility (the “ABL Facility”) with a new $75.0 million five-year revolving credit facility (the “2017 Revolving Facility” and, together with the 2017 Term Facility, the “2017 Facility”). The terms of the 2017 Facility are set forth in that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 30, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Holdings, the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The 2017 Term Facility was issued net of a $0.7 million discount. The Company has the right to request an increase to the 2017 Term Facility or request the establishment of one or more new incremental term loan facilities, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $75.0 million, plus additional amounts, in certain circumstances.

No amounts were outstanding under the ABL Facility at that time. The Company accounted for the refinancing as both a debt extinguishment and debt modification by evaluating the refinancing on a creditor by creditor basis. The Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2.2 million related to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and incurred general and administrative expenses of $1.7 million related to third-party costs associated with the modified debt. In addition, the Company incurred and capitalized $1.6 million of new debt issuance costs related to the refinancing.

The Company is permitted to voluntarily prepay the Revolving Loans, in whole or in part, or reduce or terminate the Revolving Commitment, in each case, without premium or penalty. On any business day on which the total amount of outstanding Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit exceeds the total Revolving Commitment, the Company must prepay the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such excess. As of September 30, 2017, there were no outstanding borrowings under the 2017 Revolving Facility.

2017 Facility Covenants
The 2017 Facility contains a number of affirmative, negative, reporting and financial covenants, in each case subject to certain exceptions and materiality thresholds. The 2017 Facility requires the Company to be in quarterly compliance, measured on a trailing four quarter basis, with a financial covenant.

10.13. Net Income Per Common Share
BasicA summary of net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, plus the potential dilutive effect of other securities if those securities were converted or exercised. During periods in which the Company incurs net losses, both basic and diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation because their effect would be antidilutive.presented below:

Our Product Portfolio
Our product portfolio includes an ultrasound contrast agent, and nuclear imaging products.products and a radiotherapeutic product. Our principal products include the following:
DEFINITY is an ultrasound contrast agent used in ultrasound exams of the heart, also known as echocardiography exams. DEFINITY contains perflutren-containing lipid microspheres and is indicated in the U.S. for use in patients with suboptimal echocardiograms to assist in imaging the left ventricular chamber and left endocardial border of the heart in ultrasound procedures. We launched DEFINITY in 2001, and in the U.S., its composition of matter patent will expire in 2019, its manufacturing patent will expire in 2021, and a new method of use patent will expire in 2037. In numerous foreign jurisdictions, patent protection or regulatory exclusivity will currently expire in 2019. We also have an active next generation development program for this agent including pursuing additional indications, new patent protection, and new formulations, but we can give no assurance that the program will be successful or that additional patents will protect the agent.
TechneLite is a technetium generator which provides the essential nuclear material used by radiopharmacies to radiolabel Cardiolite, Neurolite and other technetium-based radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear medicine procedures. TechneLite uses Moly as its active ingredient.
Xenon is a radiopharmaceutical gas that is inhaled and used to assess pulmonary function and also for imaging cerebral blood flow. Xenon is manufactured by a third-party and is processed and finished by us.
DEFINITY is a microbubble contrast agent used in ultrasound exams of the heart, also known as echocardiography exams. DEFINITY contains perflutren-containing lipid microspheres and is indicated in the U.S. for use in patients with suboptimal echocardiograms to assist in imaging the left ventricular chamber and left endocardial border of the heart in ultrasound procedures.
TechneLite is a Technetium (“Tc-99m”) generator that provides the essential nuclear material used by radiopharmacies to radiolabel Cardiolite, Neurolite and other Tc-99m-based radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear medicine procedures. TechneLite uses Mo-99 as its active ingredient.

Progenics Transaction
On October 1, 2019, we entered into the Initial Merger Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progenics common stock by means of a merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Progenics in which Progenics stockholders would have received 0.2502 shares of our common stock for each share of Progenics common stock, representing an approximately 35% aggregate ownership stake in the combined company. The transaction contemplated by the Initial Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and was subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Initial Merger Agreement, including, among other things, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of Progenics and a majority of votes cast by the holders of the common stock of the Company.
On February 20, 2020, we entered into the Amended Merger Agreement with Progenics, which amends and restates the Initial Merger Agreement. Under the terms of the Amended Merger Agreement, the Company will acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progenics common stock by means of a merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Progenics in which Progenics stockholders will receive, for each share of Progenics stock held at the time of the closing of the Progenics Transaction, merger consideration consisting of 0.31 of a share of our common stock and a non-tradeable CVR tied to the financial performance of PyL. Each CVR will entitle its holder to receive a pro rata share of aggregate cash payments equal to 40% of U.S. net sales generated by PyL in 2022 and 2023 in excess of $100 million and $150 million, respectively. In no event will our aggregate payments in respect of the CVRs, together with any other non-stock consideration treated as paid in connection with the Progenics Transaction, exceed 19.9% of the total consideration we pay in the Progenics Transaction. Following the closing of the Progenics Transaction, the aggregate ownership stake of the former Progenics stockholders will be approximately 40% of the combined company. Progenics’ stockholders will also be entitled to appraisal rights as provided under Delaware law.
In addition, pursuant to the Amended Merger Agreement, the holder of each in-the-money Progenics Stock Option will be entitled to receive in exchange for each such in-the-money option (i) a Company Stock Option converted based on the 0.31 exchange ratio and (ii) a vested or unvested CVR depending on whether the underlying option is vested. Holders of out-of-the-money Progenics Stock Options will receive Company Stock Options converted on an exchange ratio adjusted based on actual trading prices of common stock of Progenics and the Company prior to the closing of the Progenics Transaction.
The Progenics Transaction was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies and requires, among other things, the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock of Progenics and a majority of votes cast by the holders of the common stock of the Company. The Progenics Transaction is currently expected to close in June 2020, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions. Following the closing of the Progenics Transaction, which the parties intend to report as tax-deferred to Progenics’ stockholders with respect to the stock component of the merger consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the combined company will continue to be headquartered in North Billerica, Massachusetts and will trade on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol LNTH.
On March 15, 2020, Progenics and LMI entered into a bridge loan agreement, pursuant to which LMI agreed to provide for a secured short-term loan to Progenics on or after May 1, 2020 in an aggregate principal amount of up to $10.0 million. The bridge loan matures on the earlier to occur of (a) September 30, 2020 and (b) the date on which Progenics enters into a debt financing or similar arrangements or any amendment to, or replacement of, its existing debt provided by one or more third parties following table setsthe termination date of the merger agreement, in either case, having aggregate net cash proceeds that exceed the amount then required to repay all obligations under the bridge loan agreement in full in cash. The bridge loan bears interest at a rate per annum of 9.5% and is secured through the pledge to LMI of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of MIPI and any debt of MIPI owed to Progenics.
On April 14, 2020, the Company entered into the Support Agreement with the Velan Stockholders pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions set forth our revenues derived from our principal products:

The transaction is now expected to close in June 2020, subject to certain closing conditions. Upon completion of the acquisition, which the parties intend to report as tax-deferred to Progenics’ stockholders with respect to the stock component of the merger consideration for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the combined company will continue to be headquartered in North Billerica, Massachusetts and will trade on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol LNTH.
See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, for information regarding certain risks associated with our proposed acquisition of Progenics.
Key Factors Affecting Our Results
Our business and financial performance have been, and continue to be, affected by the following:
COVID-19 Pandemic
The global COVID-19 pandemic will have a material impact on our business. Towards the end of the first quarter of 2020 we began to experience, and through the date of this filing we are continuing to experience, impacts to our business and operations related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of stay-at-home mandates and related safety measures such as the delay of elective medical procedures, resulting in a decline in the volume of procedures using our products. We cannot predict the magnitude or duration of the pandemic’s impact on our business.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we undertook a thorough analysis of all of our discretionary expenses. In the first quarter of 2020 we implemented certain cost reduction initiatives, including, among other things, reducing travel and promotional expenses and implementing a hiring freeze through the balance of 2020. In addition, effective April 13, 2020 for the balance of the second quarter of 2020, we reduced our work week from five days to four days in order to better align manufacturing, supply, distribution and other activities with reduced product demand. We also reduced pay for our personnel, including a 75% reduction for Mary Anne Heino, our President and Chief Executive Officer, a 35% reduction for members of our executive team, a 25% reduction for our vice presidents, and across-the-board reductions of 20% of salaries for our other salaried employees and 20% of hours for our hourly employees for that same time period. In addition, our Board of Directors has also reduced director and committee member compensation by 35% for the second half of the year and has elected to receive all remaining compensation payable in 2020 in the form of time-based restricted stock units that will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date, rather than in cash. These pay reduction measures may impact our ability to maintain employee morale and motivate and retain management personnel and other key employees. We intend to reevaluate the executive and employee pay reduction measures at the end of the second quarter. We can give no assurances that we will not have to take additional cost reduction measures if the pandemic continues to adversely affect the volume of procedures using our products.
While we are currently unable to estimate the impact of COVID-19 on our overall 2020 operations and financial results, we ended the first quarter of 2020 with $95.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, as a precaution, in early April 2020 we drew $100 million on our existing $200 million revolving line of credit, which draw we intend to repay upon consummation of the Progenics Transaction in order to remain in compliance with the applicable financial covenants in our 2019 Facility. With our available liquidity and prudent expense management, we believe we will be able to maintain a state of preparedness to resume full business activities to support our customers as external conditions allow, although we can give no assurances that we will have sufficient liquidity if the pandemic continues to adversely affect the volume of procedures using our products for an extended period of time.
Anticipated Continued Growth of DEFINITY and Expansion of Our Ultrasound Microbubble Franchise
We believe the market opportunity for our ultrasound microbubble contrast agent, DEFINITY, remainscontinues to be significant. DEFINITY is currently our fastest growing and highest margin commercial product. We believe thatanticipate DEFINITY sales will continue to grow and that DEFINITY will constitute a greater share of our overall product mix.over the longer term. As we bettercontinue to educate the physician and healthcare provider community about the benefits and risks of this product,DEFINITY, we believe we will experience further penetration of suboptimal echocardiograms.
The future growth of our DEFINITY sales will be dependent on our abilityable to continue to increase segment penetration for DEFINITY in suboptimal echocardiograms and, as discussed below in “—Inventory Supply,” on the ability of JHS to continue to manufacture and release DEFINITY on a timely and consistent basis. See “Part II—Item 1A. Risk Factors—The growth of our business is substantially dependent on increased market penetration forgrow the appropriate use of DEFINITY in suboptimal echocardiograms.
There are In a U.S. market with three echocardiography contrast agents approved by the FDA, for sale in the U.S.—we estimate that DEFINITY which we estimated as having approximatelyhad over 80% of the U.S. market for contrast agents in echocardiography procedures as of December 31, 2016, Optison from GE Healthcare and Lumason from Bracco.2019.
CompetitionAs we continue to pursue expanding our microbubble franchise, our activities include:
Patents - We continue to actively pursue additional patents in connection with DEFINITY, both in the U.S. and internationally. In the U.S., three of our recently issued method of use patents covering DEFINITY were listed in the Orange Book. We now have a total of four Orange Book-listed method of use patents, one of which expires in 2035 and three of which expire in 2037, as well as additional manufacturing patents that are not Orange Book-listed expiring in 2021, 2023 and 2037. Outside of the U.S., while our DEFINITY patent protection and regulatory exclusivity have generally expired, we are currently prosecuting additional patents to try to obtain similar method of use and manufacturing patent protection as granted in the U.S.

Hatch-Waxman Act - Even though our longest duration Orange Book-listed DEFINITY patent extends until March 2037, because our Orange Book-listed composition of matter patent expired in June 2019, we may face generic DEFINITY challengers in the near to intermediate term. Under the Hatch-Waxman Act, the FDA can approve Abbreviated New Drug Applications (“ANDAs”) for Xenon
Xenon gas for lung ventilation diagnosisgeneric versions of drugs if the ANDA applicant demonstrates, among other things, that (i) its generic candidate is our third largestthe same as the innovator product by revenues. In orderestablishing bioequivalence and providing relevant chemistry, manufacturing and product data, and (ii) the marketing of that generic candidate does not infringe an Orange Book-listed patent. With respect to increaseany Orange Book-listed patent covering the predictabilityinnovator product, the ANDA applicant must give a notice to the innovator (a “Notice”) that the ANDA applicant certifies that its generic candidate will not infringe the innovator’s Orange Book-listed patent or that the Orange Book-listed patent is invalid. The innovator can then challenge the ANDA applicant in court within 45 days of our Xenon business,receiving that Notice, and FDA approval to commercialize the generic candidate will be stayed (that is, delayed) for up to 30 months (measured from the date on which a Notice is received) while the patent dispute between the innovator and the ANDA applicant is resolved in court. The 30 month stay could potentially expire sooner if the courts determine that no infringement had occurred or that the challenged Orange Book-listed patent is invalid or if the parties otherwise settle their dispute.
As of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have entered into Xenonnot received any Notice from an ANDA applicant. If we were to (i) receive any such Notice in the future, (ii) bring a patent infringement suit against the ANDA applicant within 45 days of receiving that Notice, and (iii) successfully obtain the full 30 month stay, then the ANDA applicant would be precluded from commercializing a generic version of DEFINITY prior to the expiration of that 30 month stay period and, potentially, thereafter, depending on how the patent dispute is resolved. Solely by way of example and not based on any knowledge we currently have, if we received a Notice from an ANDA applicant in May 2020 and the full 30 month stay was obtained, then the ANDA applicant would be precluded from commercialization until at least November 2022. If we received a Notice some number of months in the future and the full 30 month stay was obtained, the commercialization date would roll forward in the future by the same calculation.
Modified Formulation - We are developing at SBL a modified formulation of DEFINITY. We believe this modified formulation will provide an enhanced product profile enabling storage as well as shipment at room temperature (DEFINITY’s current formulation requires refrigerated storage), will give clinicians additional choice, and will allow for greater utility of this formulation in broader clinical settings. We were recently granted a composition of matter patent on the modified formulation which runs through 2035. If the modified formulation is approved by the FDA, then this patent would be eligible to be listed in the Orange Book. We currently believe that, if approved by the FDA, the modified formulation could become commercially available in early 2021, although that timing cannot be assured. Given its physical characteristics, the modified formulation may also be well suited for inclusion in kits requiring microbubbles for other indications and applications (including in kits developed by third parties of the type described in the next paragraph).
New Clinical Applications - As we continue to look for other opportunities to expand our microbubble franchise, we are evaluating new indications and clinical applications beyond echocardiography and contrast imaging generally. For example, in April 2019, we announced a strategic development and commercial collaboration with Cerevast Medical, Inc. (“Cerevast”) in which our microbubble will be used in connection with Cerevast’s ocular ultrasound device to target improving blood flow in occluded retinal veins in the eye. Retinal vein occlusion is one of the most common causes of vision loss worldwide. In December 2019, we announced a strategic commercial supply agreement with CarThera for the use of our microbubbles in combination with SonoCloud, a proprietary implantable device in development for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma. Glioblastoma is a lethal and devastating form of brain cancer with median survival of 15 months after diagnosis.
In-House Manufacturing - We are currently building specialized in-house manufacturing capabilities at our North Billerica, Massachusetts facility for DEFINITY and, potentially, other sterile vial products. We believe the investment in these efforts will allow us to better control DEFINITY manufacturing and inventory, reduce our costs in a potentially more price competitive environment, and provide us with supply chain redundancy. We currently expect to be in a position to use this in-house manufacturing capability by early 2021, although that timing cannot be assured.
DEFINITY in China - On March 19, 2020 in connection with our Chinese development and distribution arrangement with Double Crane Pharmaceutical Company, we filed an Import Drug License application with the NMPA, or National Medical Products Administration, for the use of DEFINITY for the echocardiography indication. Our application is now undergoing initial review by the NMPA. We believe this is an important milestone in our efforts to commercialize DEFINITY in China. Double Crane is also in the process of analyzing the clinical results relating to the liver and kidney indications and will also work with us to prepare an Import Drug License application for those indications.
Global Mo-99 Supply
We currently have Mo-99 supply agreements with customers at committed volumesInstitute for Radioelements (“IRE”), running through December 31, 2022, and reduced prices. These stepsrenewable by us on a year-to-year basis thereafter, and with NTP and ANTSO, running through December 31, 2021. We also have a Xenon supply agreement with IRE which runs through June 30, 2022, and which is subject to further extension.

Although we have a globally diverse Mo-99 supply with IRE in Belgium, NTP in South Africa and ANSTO in Australia, we still face supplier and logistical challenges in our Mo-99 supply chain. The NTP processing facility has had periodic outages in 2017, 2018 and 2019. When NTP was not producing, we relied on Mo-99 supply from both IRE and ANSTO to limit the impact of the NTP outages.  In the second quarter of 2019, ANSTO experienced technical issues in its existing Mo-99 processing facility which resulted in more predictable Xenon unit volumes. Historically, several companies, including Mallinckrodt Nuclear Imaging (now knowna decrease in Mo-99 available to us.  In addition, as Curium), sold packaged Xenon as a pulmonary imaging agentANSTO transitioned from its existing Mo-99 processing facility to its new Mo-99 processing facility in the U.S., but from 2010 through the firstsecond quarter of 2016,2019, ANSTO experienced start-up and transition challenges, which also resulted in a decrease in Mo-99 available to us.  Further, starting in late June 2019 until April 2020, ANSTO’s new Mo-99 processing facility had production volume limitations imposed on it by the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency which limited our ability to receive Mo-99 from ANSTO. During that time we wererelied on IRE and NTP to limit the only supplierimpact of this imaging agent inthose ANSTO outages and volume limitations. As ANSTO increases its production volume over the U.S.course of 2020, we expect to receive increasing supply from ANSTO. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have recently experienced challenges receiving regularly scheduled orders of Mo-99 from our global suppliers due to the partial or complete delay or cancellation of international flights by our airfreight carriers. Because of these various supply chain constraints, depending on reactor and processor schedules and operations, we have not been able to fill some or all of the demand for our TechneLite generators on certain manufacturing days.
ANSTO’s new Mo-99 processing facility could eventually increase ANSTO’s Mo-99 production capacity from approximately 2,000 curies per week to 3,500 curies per week with additional committed financial and operational resources. At full ramp-up capacity, ANSTO’s new facility could provide incremental supply to our globally diversified Mo-99 supply chain and therefore mitigate some risk among our Mo-99 suppliers, although we can give no assurances to that effect. In March 2016, Mallinckrodt Nuclear Imaging received regulatory approval from the FDA to again sell packaged Xenon in the U.S. Depending upon the pricing, extent of availability and market penetration of such offering,addition, we believe we are at risk for volume loss and price erosion for those customers which are not subject to price or volume commitmentsalso have a strategic arrangement with us. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors —We face potential supply and demand challenges for Xenon” of our Annual Report on Form 10-KSHINE Medical Technologies, Inc. (“SHINE”), a Wisconsin-based company, for the year ended December 31, 2016.future supply of Mo-99. Under the terms of that agreement, SHINE will provide us Mo-99 once SHINE’s facility becomes operational and receives all necessary approvals, which SHINE now estimates will occur in 2022.
Inventory Supply
We obtain a substantial portion of our imaging agents from a third-party suppliers.supplier. JHS is currently our sole source manufacturer of DEFINITY, Neurolite, Cardiolite and evacuation vials, the latter being an ancillary component for our TechneLite generators. We are currently seeking approval from certain foreign regulatory authorities for JHS to manufacture certain of our products. Until we receive these approvals, we will face continued limitations on where we can sell those products outside of the U.S.
In addition to JHS, we are also currently working to secure additional alternative suppliers for our key products as part of our ongoing supply chain diversification strategy. We have on-goingongoing development and technology transfer activities for a next generationmodified formulation of DEFINITY product with SBL, which is located in South Korea, but weKorea. We currently believe that if approved by the FDA, the modified formulation could be commercially available in 2021, although that timing cannot be assured. We are also building in-house specialized manufacturing capabilities at our North Billerica, Massachusetts facility, as part of a larger strategy to create a competitive advantage in specialized manufacturing, which will also allow us to optimize our costs and reduce our supply chain risk. We can give any assurancesno assurance as to when or if and when those technology transfer activitieswe will be completed and whensuccessful in these efforts or that we will beginbe able to receive supply of a next generation DEFINITY product from SBL. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Our dependence upon third parties for thesuccessfully manufacture and supply of a substantial portion ofany additional commercial products at our products could prevent us from delivering our products to our customers in the required quantities, within the required timeframes, or at all, which could result in order cancellations and decreased revenues” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.North Billerica, Massachusetts facility.
Radiopharmaceuticals are decaying radioisotopes with half-lives ranging from a few hours to several days. These products cannot be kept in inventory because of their limited shelf lives and are subject to just-in-time manufacturing, processing and distribution, which takes place at our North Billerica, Massachusetts facility.
Global Isotope Supply
We currently have Moly supply agreements with NTP Radioisotopes (“NTP”) of South Africa and ANSTO of Australia, and with Institute for Radioelements (“IRE”) of Belgium, each running through December 31, 2017, and a Xenon supply agreement with IRE which runs through June 30, 2019, subject to extensions.

We believe we are well-positioned with ANSTO, IRE and NTP to have a secure supply of Moly, including low-enriched uranium-based Moly produced from targets containing less than 20% of Uranium-235 (“LEU Moly”). From November 2016, the NRU reactor transitioned from providing regular supply of medical isotopes to providing only emergency back-up supply of highly-enriched uranium-based Moly through March 2018. ANSTO has already significantly increased its Moly production capacity from its existing facility in August 2016 and has under construction, in cooperation with NTP, a new Moly processing facility that ANSTO believes will expand its production capacity, which is expected to be in commercial operation in the first half of 2018. In addition, IRE received approval from its regulator to expand its production capability by up to 50% of its former capacity. The new ANSTO and IRE production capacity is expected to replace and exceed what was the NRU’s most recent routine production.
We are receiving bulk unprocessed Xenon from IRE, which we are processing and finishing for our customers. We believe we are well-positioned to supply Xenon to our customers. See Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors —We face potential supply and demand challenges for Xenon” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Demand for TechneLite
We believe that due to industry-wide cost containment initiatives that have resulted in a transition of where imaging procedures are performed, from free-standing imaging centers to the hospital setting, the total MPI market has been essentially flat since 2011. Our 2016 sales of TechneLite generators exceeded our expectations because of opportunistic sales when customers could not obtain sufficient generators from other suppliers. We can give no assurances that such opportunistic sales will be replicated in 2017.
In November 2016, CMS announced the 2017 final Medicare payment rules for hospital outpatient settings. Under the final rules, each technetium dose produced from a generator for a diagnostic procedure in a hospital outpatient setting is reimbursed by Medicare at a higher rate if that technetium dose is produced from a generator containing at least 95% LEU Moly. In January 2013, we began to offer a TechneLite generator which contains at least 95% LEU Moly and which satisfies the requirements for reimbursement under this incentive program. Although demand for LEU generators appears to be growing, we do not know when, or if, this incremental reimbursement for LEU Moly generators will result in a material increase in our generator sales.
Research and Development Expenses
To remain a leader in the marketplace, we have historically made substantial investments in new product development. As a result, the positive contributions of those internally funded research and development programs have been a key factor inFor flurpiridaz F 18, our historical results and success. Onpositron emission tomography (“PET”)-based myocardial perfusion imaging agent, on April 25, 2017, we announced entering into a definitive, exclusive Collaboration and License Agreement with GE Healthcare for the agent’s continued Phase III3 development and worldwide commercializationcommercialization. Because of flurpiridaz F 18. In the future, we may also seek to engage strategic partners for our 18FCOVID-19 pandemic, GE Healthcare believes enrollment in that global clinical development program will be delayed. For LMI 1195, and LMI 1174 programs, or we may choose to partially or fully fund one or more development programs ourselves. See Part I, Item 1. “Business—Research and Development—Proposed GE Healthcare Transaction” and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—We may not be able to further develop or commercialize our agents in development without successful strategic partners” of our Annual Report on Form 10-KPET-based molecular imaging agent for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Hurricane Marianorepinephrine pathway, we are currently designing two Phase 3 clinical trials for the use of LMI 1195 for the diagnosis and management of neuroendocrine tumors in Puerto Rico
Inpediatric and adult populations, respectively. The FDA has granted an Orphan Drug designation for the use of LMI 1195 in the management indication. We have also received notice of eligibility for a rare pediatric disease priority review voucher for a subsequent human drug application so long as LMI 1195 is approved by the FDA for its rare pediatric disease indication prior to September 2017, Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, interrupting power30, 2022. Our investments in these additional clinical activities will increase our operating expenses and telecommunications services for mostimpact our results of the islandoperations and limiting groundcash flow and air transportation. We operate a radiopharmacy in San Juan, Puerto Rico; the building that houses our radiopharmacy sustained minimal external physical damage as a result of the hurricane. From and after September 20, 2017, the number of diagnostic imaging procedures performed on the island has severely declined. While we currently believe that the number of diagnostic imaging procedures performed in Puerto Rico will slowly return to prior levels, we can give no assurances of that, and failureas to whether or when LMI 1195 would be approved.

As part of our radiopharmacymicrobubble franchise strategy, we also conducted two Phase 3, open-label, multicenter studies (which we refer to returnas BENEFIT 1 and BENEFIT 2) to such prior levels could have a negative effect on the revenueevaluate LVEF measurement accuracy and cash flowreproducibility of our business. See Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors—In the U.S., we are heavily dependent on a few large customersDEFINITY contrast-enhanced and group purchasing organization arrangements to generate a majority of our revenues for our medical imaging products. Outside of the U.S., we rely primarily on distributors to generate a substantial portion of our revenue.”
Segments
We report our results of operations in two operating segments: U.S. and International. We generate a greater proportion of our revenues and net income in the U.S. segment, which consists of all regions of the U.S. with the exception of Puerto Rico.

Executive Overview
Our results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017unenhanced echocardiography as compared to non-contrast cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (“CMRI”), used as the corresponding periods in 2016 reflecttruth standard. In February 2020, we announced the following:
increased revenues and segment penetration for DEFINITYresults of BENEFIT 1. After reviewing the BENEFIT 1 study results, we concluded that there was no statistically significant improvement in the suboptimal echocardiogram segmentaccuracy of LVEF values for contrast-enhanced echocardiography versus unenhanced echocardiography as compared to CMRI. In addition, analyses of the secondary endpoints revealed no improvement in inter-reader variability between the contrast-enhanced and unenhanced echocardiograms for LVEF assessments. We have recently completed our review of the BENEFIT 2 study results, and those results are similar to the previously reported BENEFIT 1 results, namely that the BENEFIT 2 study results also did not meet its primary endpoint. Among the secondary endpoints in BENEFIT 2, inter-reader variability for left ventricular volume measurements improved when using DEFINITY versus unenhanced ultrasound, while there was no improvement in the LVEF inter-reader variability. In both studies, a result of our continued focused sales efforts;
increased revenues for TechneLite, mainly the result of higher contracted volumes from certain customers;
increased revenues of $5.0 million from GE Healthcare forpost-hoc analysis did show statistically significant improvements in left ventricular diastolic and systolic volume measurements with contrast-enhanced versus unenhanced echocardiography when compared to CMRI. Although we very much see the continued Phase III development and worldwide commercialization of flurpiridaz F 18;
lower international revenues and cost of goods sold as a resultvalue of the salesuse of our Canadiancontrast in suboptimal echocardiograms to opacify the left ventricular chamber and Australian radiopharmacies in 2016;
increased depreciation expense as a resultimprove the delineation of the scheduled decommissioningleft ventricular endocardial border, at this point, we do not foresee spending additional time or effort pursuing an LVEF indication for DEFINITY.
New Initiatives
We continue to seek ways to expand our product portfolio, evaluating a number of certain long-lived assets;
generaldifferent opportunities to acquire or in-license additional products, businesses and administrative expense of $1.7 million incurredtechnologies to drive our future growth. We are particularly interested in connection with the refinancing ofexpanding our debtpresence in oncology, in radiotherapeutics as well as diagnostics. In addition to the Progenics Transaction described above, in May 2019 we entered into a related $2.2 million lossstrategic collaboration and license agreement with NanoMab Technology Limited, a privately-held biopharmaceutical company focusing on the extinguishmentdevelopment of debt;next generation radiopharmaceuticals for cancer precision medicine. We believe this collaboration will provide the first broadly-available imaging biomarker research tool to pharmaceutical companies and
decreased interest expense due academic centers conducting research and development on PD-L1 immuno-oncology treatments, including combination therapies. We can give no assurance as to the refinancing of long-term debt and a lower principal balance on our long-term debt.when or if this collaboration will be successful or accretive to earnings.

The increase in the U.S. segment revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to a $4.9$5.3 million increase in DEFINITY revenues as a result of higher unit volumes, a $1.7 million increase in TechneLite revenues primarily as a result of increased unit volumes and a $1.1 million increase in Xenon revenuesrevenue as a result of higher unit volumes. Offsetting these increasesThis increase was a $0.7 million decrease due tooffset, in part, by an increase in rebate and allowance provisions.provisions of $0.8 million, lower TechneLite revenue driven by supplier disruptions and COVID-19 impact on international logistics and a decrease in Other Nuclear revenue primarily associated with lower Xenon volume as a result of COVID-19.
The increase in the U.S.International segment revenues for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to a $17.5$0.8 million increase in Other Nuclear revenue driven by an increase in Neurolite volume and $0.4 million increase in DEFINITY revenues as a result of higher unit volumes, a $4.9 millionrevenue driven by increased volume. This increase was offset, in part, by TechneLite revenuesrevenue due primarily as a result of increased unit volumes and a $2.1 million increaseto opportunistic incremental demand in Xenon as a result of higher unit volumes. In addition, there was an increase of $5.0 million in other revenue associated with the up-front license fee recognized related to the License Agreement with GE Healthcare for the continued Phase III development and worldwide commercialization of flurpiridaz F 18. Offsetting these increases was a $1.9 million decrease due to rebate and allowance provisions, as well as a $1.6 million decrease in Ablavar revenues as the product is no longer sold.
The International segment revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017, were consistent compared to the prior year period. The decrease in the International segment revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the prior year period is primarily the result of the sale of the Australian radiopharmacy business during 2016.
Rebates and Allowances
Estimates for rebates and allowances represent our estimated obligations under contractual arrangements with third parties. Rebate accruals and allowances are recorded in the same period the related revenue is recognized, resulting in a reduction to revenue and the establishment of a liability which is included in accrued expenses. These rebates and allowances result from performance-based offers that are primarily based on attaining contractually specified sales volumes and growth, Medicaid rebate programs for our products, administrative fees of group purchasing organizations royalties and certain distributor related commissions. The calculation of the accrual for these rebates and allowances is based on an estimate of the third-party’s buying patterns and the resulting applicable contractual rebate or commission rate(s) to be earned over a contractual period.

The increasedecrease in the U.S. segment gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2017 overMarch 31, 2020, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to an asset impairment loss on other nuclear products, and lower TechneLite unit volumes, as well as an increase in rebate and allowance provisions. This was offset by higher DEFINITY volume.
The increase in the International segment gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to higher DEFINITY unit volumes and higher Xenon unit volumes.

The increase in the U.S. segment gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 over the prior year period is primarily due to higher DEFINITY unit volumes, higher Xenon unit volumes and the recognition of $5.0 million in other revenue associated with the License Agreement with GE Healthcare for the continued Phase III development and worldwide commercialization of flurpiridaz F 18 without any associated cost of goods sold.driven by increased volume.
The decreases in the International segment gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 over the prior year periods are primarily due to higher manufacturing and material costs for certain products.

Gain on Sales of Assets
Effective January 7, 2016, our Canadian subsidiary entered into an asset purchase agreement, pursuant to which it would sell substantially all of the assets of our Canadian radiopharmacies and Gludef manufacturing and distribution business to one of our existing Canadian radiopharmacy customers. The purchase price for the asset sale was $9.0 million in cash and also included a working capital adjustment of $0.5 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $5.9 million recorded within operating income during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Effective August 11, 2016, we entered into a share purchase agreement, pursuant to which we sold 100% of the stock of our Australian subsidiary to one of our existing radiopharmacy customers. This sale included the radiopharmacy business as well as all the direct/bulk business. The sale price for the share sale was AUD$2.0 million (approximately $1.5 million U.S. Dollars) in cash and also included a working capital receivable adjustment of approximately AUD$2.0 million (approximately $1.5 million U.S. Dollars), resulting in a pre-tax book gain of $0.6 million, which was recorded within operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by approximately $2.4 million and $6.7$2.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,March 31, 2020 as compared to the prior year periods,period due to the March 2017 refinancing of our long-term debt and reductions in the principal balance of our long-term debt related to the 2017 refinancing and the voluntary principal prepayments we made during September and November 2016.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we incurred a $2.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt in connection with the refinancing of our existing indebtedness within the new term loansecond quarter of 2019 which reduced our underlying principal amount and revolving credit facilities, see Note 8, “Financing Arrangements” todecreased interest rates on our condensed consolidated financial statements.long-term debt.

Our provisionThe income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily due to the income taxes results primarily fromgenerated in the period and the accrual of interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions offset by reversals of those positions as statutes lapse or such positions are settled during the year, as well as taxes due in certain foreign jurisdictions where we generate taxable income. The $0.7 million and $1.5 million increases in the tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the same periods in 2016 primarily reflect a reduced amount of statute lapses and consequent liability releases in the current period, when compared with the prior year period.benefits arising from stock compensation deductions.
We regularly assess our ability to realize our deferred tax assets. Assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets requires significant management judgment. In determining whether our deferred tax assets are more likely than notmore-likely-than-not realizable, we evaluatedevaluate all available positive and negative evidence, and weighedweigh the objective evidence and expected impact. Evidence considered included our history of net operating losses, which resulted in our recording ofWe continue to record a full valuation allowance against certain of our domesticforeign net deferred tax assets beginning in 2011, and in each year thereafter. We were profitable on a cumulative basis for the three-year period ended September 30, 2017, but substantially all of that profitability was achieved during 2016 and the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
We continue to evaluate other negative evidence, including customer concentration and contractual risk, the risk of Moly supply availability and cost, DEFINITY supplier risk, and certain product development risks, all of which provide for uncertainties around our future level of profitability. Based on our review of all available evidence, we determined that we have not yet attained a sustained level of profitability sufficient to outweigh the objectively verifiable negative evidence, and have recorded a full valuation allowance against our domestic net deferred tax assets at September 30, 2017. We will continue to assess the level of the valuation allowance required. If a sufficient weight of positive evidence exists in future periods to support a release of some or all of the valuation allowance recorded against domestic deferred tax assets, such a release would likely have a material impact on our results of operations in that future period.assets.
Our effective tax rate for the periodseach reporting period is presented are as follows:
  Nine Months Ended September 30,
  2017 2016
Effective tax rate 7.5% 2.9%
  Three Months Ended
March 31,
  2020 2019
Effective tax rate 39.6% 22.1%

Our effective tax rate in fiscal 2020 differs from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% principally due to the impact of U.S. state taxes and the accrual of interest on uncertain tax positions.
The increase in the effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the prior year period is primarily due to the increased tax rate impact from the accrual of interest on uncertain tax positions in the current period and the benefit from stock compensation which was recorded in the comparative period.

Our ability to fund our future capital needs will be affected by our ability to continue to generate cash from operations and may be affected by our ability to access the capital markets, money markets or other sources of funding, as well as the capacity and terms of our financing arrangements.
We may from time to time repurchase or otherwise retire our debt and take other steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our balance sheet. These actions may include prepayments of our term loans or other retirements or refinancing of outstanding debt, privately negotiatednegotiated transactions or otherwise. The amount of debt that may be retired, if any, could be material and would be decided at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on market conditions, our cash position and other considerations.
Funding Requirements
Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:
Our ability to have product manufactured and released from JHS and other manufacturing sites in a timely manner in the future;
The pricing environment and the level of product sales and the pricing environment of our currently marketed products, particularly DEFINITY and any additional products that we may market in the future;future, including decreased product sales resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic;
Revenue mix shifts and associated volume and selling price changes that could result from contractual status changes with key customers and additional competition;
The costs of acquiring or in-licensing, developing, obtaining regulatory approval for, and commercializing, new products, businesses or technologies, together with the costs of pursuing opportunities that are not eventually consummated;
Our investment in the further clinical development and commercialization of existing products and development candidates;
The costs of investing in our facilities, equipment and technology infrastructure;
The costs and timing of establishing manufacturing and supply arrangements for commercial supplies of our products and raw materials and components;

Our ability to have product manufactured and released from JHS and other manufacturing sites in a timely manner in the future;
The costs of further commercialization of our existing products, particularly in international markets, including product marketing, sales and distribution and whether we obtain local partners to help share such commercialization costs;
The costs of investing in our facilities, equipment and technology infrastructure;
The costs and timing of establishing manufacturing and supply arrangements for commercial supplies of our products;
The extent to which we acquire or invest in (i) new products, businesses and technologies, or (ii) the further clinical development or commercialization of existing development candidates or products;
The extent to which we choose to establish collaboration, co-promotion, distribution or other similar arrangements for our marketed products;
The legal costs relating to maintaining, expanding and enforcing our intellectual property portfolio, pursuing insurance or other claims and defending against product liability, regulatory compliance or other claims; and
The cost of interest on any additional borrowings which we may incur under our financing arrangements.
Until we successfullysuccessfully become dual sourced for our principal products, we are vulnerable to future supply shortages. Disruption in the financialour financial performance could also occur if we experience significant adverse changes in product or customer mix, broad economic downturns, adverse industry or company conditions or catastrophic external events, including pandemics such as COVID-19, natural disasters and political or military conflict. If we experience one or more of these events in the future, we may be required to implement additionalfurther expense reductions, such as a delay or elimination of discretionary spending in all functional areas, as well as scaling back select operating and strategic initiatives.
If our capital resources become insufficient to meet our future capital requirements, we would need to finance our cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, assets securitizations, debt financings, sale-leasebacks or other financing or strategic alternatives, to the extent such transactions are permissible under the covenants of the agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities.Credit Agreement. Additional equity or debt financing, or other transactions, may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If any of these transactions require an amendment or waiver under the covenants in the agreements governing our senior secured credit facilities,Credit Agreement, which could result in additional expenses associated with obtaining the amendment or waiver, we will seek to obtain such a waiver to remain in compliance with those covenants. However, we cannot be assured that such an amendment or waiver would be granted, or that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

At September 30, 2017,March 31, 2020, our only current committed external source of funds is our borrowing availability under our 20172019 Revolving Facility. We had $68.1$95.7 million of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. Our 20172019 Facility contains a number of affirmative, negative, reporting and financial covenants, in each case subject to certain exceptions and materiality thresholds. Incremental borrowings under the 20172019 Revolving Facility may affect our ability to comply with the covenants in the 20172019 Facility, including the financial covenantcovenants restricting totalconsolidated net leverage.leverage and interest coverage. Accordingly, we may be limited in utilizing the full amount of our 20172019 Revolving Facility as a source of liquidity.
On April 1, 2020, we drew down $100 million under our 2019 Revolving Facility, the proceeds of which we have currently invested in short-term, interest bearing instruments.
In addition, in connection with the Progenics Transaction, which we now expect to close in June 2020, although the merger is structured as a stock-for-stock exchange, we will incur legal, accounting, financial advisory, consulting and printing fees, and transition, integration and other costs which we intend to fund from our available cash and the available cash of Progenics. The CVRs we will issue in the Progenics Transaction will entitle holders thereof to future cash payments of 40% of PyL net sales over $100 million in 2022 and $150 million in 2023, which, if payable, we currently intend to fund from our then-available cash. In no event will our aggregate payments under the CVRs, together with any other non-stock consideration treated as paid in connection with the Progenics Transaction, exceed 19.9% of the total consideration we pay in the Progenics Transaction.
Based on our current operating plans, including our prudent expense management in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, results of operations and availability under our 20172019 Revolving Facility will be sufficient to continue to fund our liquidity requirements for the foreseeable future.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce the variability in cash flows associated with a portion of the Company’s forecasted interest payments on its variable rate debt. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has entered into interest rate swap contracts to fix the LIBOR rate on a notional amount of $100.0 million through May 31, 2024. The average fixed LIBOR rate on the interest rate swaps as of March 31, 2020 was approximately 0.82%. This agreement involves the receipt of floating rate amounts in exchange for fixed rate interest payments over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the underlying principal amount. Please refer to Note 10, “Derivative Instruments”, for further details on the interest rate swaps.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016,2019, except as set forth below. Forbelow:
The COVID-19 pandemic could have a material impact on our business, results of operation and financial condition, operating results, cash flows and prospects.
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan China. Less than four months later, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. While the outbreak initially was largely concentrated in China and caused significant disruptions in its economy, the virus has now spread to many other countries and regions, and every state within the United States, including Massachusetts, where our primary offices and manufacturing facility are located.
Towards the end of the first quarter of 2020 we began to experience, and through the date of this filing we are continuing to experience, impacts to our business and operations related to the COVID-19 pandemic, including the impact of stay-at-home mandates and related safety measures such as the delay of elective medical procedures, resulting in a decline in the volume of procedures using our products. In response to the pandemic, healthcare providers have, and may need to further, information, referreallocate resources, such as physicians, staff and facilities, as they prioritize limited resources and personnel capacity to Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors”focus on the treatment of patients with COVID-19 and implement limitations on access to hospitals and other medical institutions due to concerns about the potential spread of COVID-19 in such settings. These actions have significantly delayed the provision of other medical care including elective and diagnostic procedures involving our products, having an adverse effect on our revenue. These measures and challenges may continue for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, and such duration is uncertain, and may significantly reduce our revenue and cash flows while the pandemic continues and thereafter until we and our customers are able to resume normal business operations. We anticipate that in the second quarter of 2020, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will be more significant than we experienced in the first quarter as pandemic precautions continue to limit demand for our products. We cannot predict the magnitude or duration of the pandemic’s impact on our business.
In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the following risks could have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects:
The delay or cancellation by hospitals and clinics of the elective procedures in which our products are used as a result of their COVID-19 response efforts and the duration of such effects, thereby reducing sales of our products for an unknown period of time;
The inability or unwillingness of some patients to visit hospitals or clinics in order to undergo elective procedures in which our products are used, thereby reducing sales of our products for an unknown period of time;
The inability of some patients to pay for elective procedures and/or the co-pay associated with those procedures in which our products are used due to job loss or lack of insurance, thereby reducing sales of our products for an unknown period of time;
The inability of our distributors, radiopharmacy customers, hospitals, clinics and other customers to conduct their normal operations, including supplying or conducting procedures in which our products are used, because of their COVID-19 response efforts, or the reduced capacity or productivity of their employees and contractors as a result of possible illness, quarantine or other inability to work, thereby reducing sales of our products for an unknown period of time;

The reduction in pulmonary ventilation studies in which our Xenon-133 gas is used because of institutional concerns about a hospital’s ability to adequately decontaminate equipment used to administer those studies during the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby reducing Xenon-133 sales for an unknown period of time;
The inability of global suppliers of raw materials or components used in the manufacture of our products, or contract manufacturers of our products, to supply and/or transport those raw materials, components and products to us in a timely and cost effective manner due to shutdowns, interruptions or delays, limiting and precluding the production of our finished products, impacting our ability to supply customers, reducing our sales, increasing our costs of goods sold, and reducing our absorption of overhead;
The partial or complete delay or cancellation of international or domestic flights by our airfreight carriers, resulting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.inability to receive raw materials, components and products from our global suppliers or to ship and deliver our finished products to our domestic and international customers in a timely or cost effective manner, thereby potentially increasing our freight costs as we seek alternate, potentially more expensive, methods to ship raw materials, components or products, and negatively impacting our sales;
The growthreduced capacity or productivity of our business is substantially dependent on increased market penetration forcomplex, on-campus operations as a result of possible illness, quarantine or other inability of our employees and contractors to work, despite all of the appropriate usepreventative measures we continue to undertake to protect the health and safety of DEFINITY in suboptimal echocardiograms.our workforce;
The growthilliquidity or insolvency of our suppliers, contract manufacturers and freight carriers whose business is substantially dependent on increased market penetrationactivities could be shut down, interrupted or delayed;
The illiquidity or insolvency of our distributors and customers, or their inability to pay our invoices in full or in a timely manner, due to the reduction in their revenues caused by the cancellation or delay of procedures and other factors, which could potentially reduce our cash flow, reduce our liquidity and increase our bad debt reserves;
A portion of our raw materials or finished product inventory may expire due to reduced demand for our drugs;
Delays in our ability, and the appropriate useability of DEFINITY in suboptimal echocardiograms. Ofour development partners to conduct, enroll and complete clinical development programs such as the total numberflurpiridaz F 18 Phase 3 clinical development program currently being conducted by GE Healthcare;

We estimate that DEFINITY had an approximately 80% share of the U.S. market for contrast agents in echocardiography procedures as of December 2016. We launched DEFINITY in 2001, and in the U.S., its composition of matter patent will expire in 2019, its manufacturing patent will expire in 2021, and a new method of use patent will expire in 2037. In numerous foreign jurisdictions, patent protectionother health or regulatory exclusivity will currently expireauthorities;

We have on-going development and technology transfer activities for a next generation DEFINITY product with SBL located in Songdo, South Korea, approximately 20 miles southwest of Seoul, but can give no assurances as to when those technology transfer activities will be completed and when we will begin to receive a supply of a next generation DEFINITY product from SBL. In addition, those activities could be adversely affected by on-going political and military tensions on the Korean peninsula.
If we are not able to continue to grow DEFINITY sales through increased market penetration, we will not be able to grow the revenue and cash flowintegration of the businesstwo companies, or leverage the substantial overheadsynergies, cost savings, innovation and other anticipated benefits of the balance of our business, which could have a negative effect on our prospects.
In the U.S., we are heavily dependent on a few large customers and group purchasing organization arrangementsacquisition due to generate a majority of our revenues for our nuclear medical imaging products and our other products. Outsideimpact of the U.S., we rely primarilyCOVID-19 pandemic on distributors to generate a substantial portion of our revenue.
In the U.S., we have historically relied on a limited number of radiopharmacy customers, primarily Cardinal, UPPI, GE Healthcare and Triad, to distribute our current largest volume nuclear imaging products and generate a majority of our revenues. Three customers accounted for approximately 30% of our revenues in the year ended December 31, 2016, with UPPI, Cardinal, and GE Healthcare accounting for approximately 11%, 10% and 9%, respectively. Among the existing radiopharmacies in the U.S., continued consolidations, divestitures and reorganizations may have a negative effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. We generally have distribution arrangements with our major radiopharmacy customers pursuant to multi-year contracts, each of which is subject to renewal. If these contracts are terminated prior to expiration of their term, or are not renewed, or are renewed on terms that are less favorable to us, then such an event could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.prospects of our Company and Progenics;
In Puerto Rico, we ownThe instability to worldwide economies, financial markets, social institutions, labor markets and operate one of two radiopharmacies on the island and sell our own products as well as products of third parties to end users. In September 2017, Hurricane Maria devastated the island, interrupting power and telecommunications services for most of the island and limiting ground and air transportation. The building that houses our radiopharmacy sustained

minimal external physical damagehealthcare systems as a result of the hurricane. From and after September 20, 2017, the number of diagnostic imaging procedures performed on the island has severely declined. While we currently believe that the number of diagnostic imaging procedures performed in Puerto Rico will slowly return to prior levels, we can give no assurances of that, and failure of our radiopharmacy to return to such prior levels could have a negative effect on the revenue and cash flow of our business.
For all of our medical imaging products, we continue to experience significant pricing pressures from our competitors, large customers and group purchasing organizations, and any significant, additional pricing pressures could lead to a reduction in revenueCOVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material adverse effect onresult in an economic downturn that could adversely impact our

business, results of operations and financial condition, as well as that of our suppliers, distributors, customers or other business partners, including Progenics; and cash flows.
OutsideA recurrence of the U.S., CanadaCOVID-19 pandemic after social distancing and Puerto Rico, weother similar measures have no sales force and, consequently, rely on third-party distributors, either on a country-by-country basis or on a multi-country, regional basis,been relaxed.
The extent to market, sell and distribute our products. This iswhich the case in both Canada and Australia, where we formerly owned or operated radiopharmacies and are now distributing products under the Isologic Agreement and the GMS Agreement, respectively. Distributors accounted for approximately 34%, 15% and 17% of International segment revenues for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. In certain circumstances, distributors may also sell competing products to our own or products for competing diagnostic modalities and may have incentives to shift sales towards those competing products. As a result, we cannot assure you that our international distributors will increase or maintain current levels of unit sales or that we will be able to increase or maintain our current unit pricing, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect onCOVID-19 pandemic impacts our business results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Our business is subject to international economic, political and other risks that could negatively affect our results of operations orand financial position.
Forcondition will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge in connection with the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015severity of the virus, the ability to treat and 2014, we derived approximately 15%, 20%ultimately prevent it, its potential recurrence, and 22% of our revenues from outside the fifty United States, respectively. Accordingly, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally, including:
Less stable political and economic environments and changes in a specific country’s or region’s political or economic conditions, including on-going political and military tensions on the Korean peninsula which could adversely affect our next generation DEFINITY program at SBL;
Entering into or renewing commercial agreements with international governments or provincial authorities or entities directly or indirectly controlled by such governments or authorities, such as our Chinese partner Double-Crane Pharmaceutical Company;
International customers which are agencies or institutions of foreign governments;
Local business practices whichactions that may be in conflict with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and U.K. Bribery Act;taken to contain its impact.
Currency fluctuations;
Potential negative consequences from changes in tax laws affecting our ability to repatriate profits;
Unfavorable labor regulations;
Greater difficulties in relying on non-U.S. courts to enforce either local or U.S. laws, particularly with respect to intellectual property;
Greater potential for intellectual property piracy;
Greater difficulties in managing and staffing non-U.S. operations;
The need to ensure compliance with the numerous in-country and international regulatory and legal requirements applicable to our business in each of these jurisdictions and to maintain an effective compliance program to ensure compliance with these requirements;
Changes in public attitudes about the perceived safety of nuclear facilities;
Changes in trade policies, regulatory requirements and other barriers;
Civil unrest or other catastrophic events, including Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico; and
Longer payment cycles of non-U.S. customers and difficulty collecting receivables in non-U.S. jurisdictions.
These factors are beyond our control. The realization of any of these or other risks associated with operating outside the fifty United States could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. As our international exposure increases and as we execute our strategy of international expansion, these risks may intensify.
