Basis of Presentation	Jun. 29, 2014
Basis of Presentation	'
	Note 1 — Basis of presentation
	We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements.
	In the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in our annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, our quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
	Effective January 1, 2014, the Company realigned its operating segments to reflect changes in the Company’s internal financial reporting structure. See Note 14 for additional information on the Company’s changed reporting structure.
	The Company’s share based compensation plan permits employees to elect to have shares withheld by the Company to satisfy their minimum statutory tax withholding obligations arising from the exercise or vesting of share based awards. The Company then remits, in cash, the withholding taxes to the appropriate tax authorities on behalf of the employee. For the six months ended June 29, 2014, the Company has classified such payments as a cash outflow from financing activities under the caption “Proceeds from share based compensation plans and the related tax impacts” within the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company views the activity as, in effect, a repurchase of the employee’s shares. The Company’s payments were previously reported as a cash outflow from operating activities; therefore, the Company reclassified the cash outflow for the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $2.3 million to conform to the presentation for the six months ended June 29, 2014 within the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as well as the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows included in Note 15. The Company’s future filings incorporating financial periods prior to 2014 will also reflect this reclassification.
	Additionally, the Company made certain revisions to the prior year condensed consolidating statements of cash flows included in the condensed consolidated guarantor financial information included in Note 15 to correct errors identified in the fourth quarter 2013.
	As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company” mean Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.

New Accounting Standards	Jun. 29, 2014
New Accounting Standards	'
	Note 2 — New accounting standards

	In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance for the reporting of discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results will be reported as discontinued operations in an entity's financial statements. In addition, the new guidance requires additional disclosures for discontinued operations designed to provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of discontinued operations. The new guidance also requires disclosures regarding disposals of a significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting.This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

	In May 2014, the FASB, in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board, issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. The new guidance is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict 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 and services. The new guidance is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.
	From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the specified effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued standards that are not yet effective and, unless otherwise discussed, believes these standards will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Acquisitions	'
	Note 3 — Acquisitions
	On February 3, 2014, the Company acquired Mayo Healthcare Pty Limited, (“Mayo Healthcare”), a distributor of medical devices and supplies primarily in the Australian market. The total fair value of consideration for the Mayo Healthcare acquisition was $28.5 million, which included an initial payment of $29.0 million in cash, partially offset by a $0.5 million favorable working capital adjustment. Transaction expenses associated with the acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income were $0.3 million for the six months ended June 29, 2014. The results of operations of the Mayo Healthcare business are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income from the acquisition date. For the three months ended June 29, 2014, the Company recorded revenue and income from continuing operations before taxes related to the Mayo Healthcare business of $9.4 million and $3.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 29, 2014, the Company recorded revenue and income from continuing operations before taxes related to the Mayo Healthcare business of $13.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively. Pro forma information is not presented as the Mayo Healthcare operations are not significant to the overall operations of the Company.
	The following table presents the preliminary fair value determination of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Mayo Healthcare acquisition.

		(Dollars in thousands)
	Assets
	Current assets	$	10,393
	Property, plant and equipment		306
	Customer lists intangible asset		9,335
	Goodwill		15,986
	Total assets acquired		36,020
	Liabilities
	Current liabilities		4,685
	Deferred tax liabilities		2,800
	Liabilities assumed		7,485
	Net assets acquired	$	28,535

	The Company is continuing to evaluate the Mayo Healthcare acquisition. Further adjustments to the fair value determination may be necessary as a result of the Company’s assessment of additional information related to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily with respect to deferred tax assets and liabilities and goodwill.
	Among the acquired assets, customer lists have a useful life of 10 years. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition primarily reflects the synergies expected to be realized from integration of the acquired business. Goodwill and the step-up in basis of the intangible assets in connection with stock acquisitions such as the Mayo Healthcare acquisition are not deductible for tax purposes.
	The Company made the following acquisitions during 2013, all of which were accounted for as business combinations:
	·	On December 2, 2013, the Company acquired Vidacare Corporation, (“Vidacare”), a provider of intraosseous, or inside the bone, access devices. This acquisition complements the Company’s vascular access and specialty product portfolios.
	·	On June 11, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of Ultimate Medical Pty. Ltd. and its affiliates (“Ultimate”), a supplier of airway management devices and related products. This acquisition complements the Company’s anesthesia product portfolio.
	·	On June 6, 2013, the Company acquired Eon Surgical, Ltd. (“Eon”), a developer of a minimally invasive microlaparoscopy surgical platform technology designed to enhance a surgeon’s ability to perform scarless surgery while producing better patient outcomes. This technology complements the Company’s surgical product portfolio.
	The total fair value of consideration for the 2013 acquisitions is estimated at $307.0 million. The results of operations of the acquired businesses and assets are included in the consolidated statements of income from their respective acquisition dates. Pro forma information is not presented as the operations of the acquired businesses are not significant to the overall operations of the Company.

	2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment

	On April 28, 2014, the Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan”) involving the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain of the Company’s facilities, and will include the relocation of manufacturing operations from certain higher-cost locations to existing lower-cost locations. These actions commenced in the second quarter ended June 29, 2014 and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2017.

	The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax charges in connection with these restructuring activities of approximately $42 to $53 million, most of which are expected to be incurred prior to the end of 2016. In addition, the Company estimates that $32 million to $40 million of the aggregate pre-tax charges will result in future cash outlays, most of which are expected to be incurred prior to the end of 2016.

	The following table provides a summary of the Company’s current cost estimates by major type of cost associated with the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan:


		Total estimated amount expected to be incurred
	Type of cost	Total estimated amount expected to be incurred

	Termination benefits	$12 million to $15 million
	Facility closure and other exit costs(1)	$2 million to $5 million
	Accelerated depreciation charges	$10 million to $12 million
	Other (2)	$18 million to $21 million
		$42 million to $53 million

	-1	Includes costs to transfer product lines among facilities and outplacement and employee relocation costs.
	-2	Consists of other costs directly related to the Plan, including project management, legal and regulatory costs.

	The Company recorded expenses of $9.5 million for the three and six month ended June 29, 2014 related to the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan. Of this amount, $8.6 million related to termination benefits and was recorded as restructuring expense and $0.9 million related to accelerated depreciation and other costs and was recorded as cost of sales. As of June 29, 2014, the Company has a restructuring reserve of $8.6 million in connection with the 2014 Manufacturing Footprint Realignment Plan all of which relates to termination benefits.

	As the program progresses, management will reevaluate the estimated costs set forth above, and may revise its estimates and the accounting charges relating to these actions, as appropriate, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.

	2014 European Restructuring Plan
	On February 27, 2014, the Company committed to a restructuring plan (the “2014 European Restructuring Plan”), which impacts certain administrative functions in Europe and involves the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain of the Company’s European facilities.
	The Company estimates that it will record pre-tax charges of approximately $8 million to $9 million in connection with implementing the 2014 European Restructuring Plan. The Company anticipates that substantially all of these charges will involve employee termination benefits that will result in future cash outlays. For the three months ended June 29, 2014 the Company reversed $0.6 million of expense after determining certain termination benefit reserves would not be utilized. For the six months ended June 29, 2014, the Company incurred $8.1 million of charges primarily related to termination benefits. As of June 29, 2014, the Company had a reserve of $5.3 million in connection with this project. The Company expects to complete this program in 2014.

	2014 Restructuring Charges
	In June 2014, the Company initiated programs to consolidate locations in Australia and terminate certain European distributor agreements in an effort to reduce costs. As a result of these actions, the Company estimates that it will incur an aggregate of $2 million to $3 million in restructuring and other impairment charges over the term of these restructuring programs, of which $1.8 million was incurred through June 29, 2014. These programs include costs related to termination benefits, contract termination costs and other exit costs. As of June 29, 2014, the Company has a reserve of $0.4 million in connection with these programs. The Company expects to complete the programs in 2014.
	LMA Restructuring Program
	In connection with the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of LMA International N.V. (the “LMA business”) in 2012, the Company formulated a plan related to the integration of the LMA business and the Company’s other businesses. The integration plan focuses on the closure of the LMA business’ corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, marketing, and distribution functions in North America, Europe and Asia.
	A reconciliation of the changes in accrued liabilities associated with the LMA restructuring program from December 31, 2013 through June 29, 2014 is set forth in the following table:

		Termination Benefits				Facility Closure Costs				Contract Termination Costs				Other Exit Costs			Total
		(Dollars in thousands)
	Balance at December 31, 2013	$	552			$	427			$	3,686			$	16		$	4,681

	Foreign currency translation		—				2				(1	)			1			2
	Balance at June 29, 2014	$	29			$	-			$	384			$	17		$	430
	During the six months ended June 29, 2014, the Company reversed approximately $3.2 million in contract termination costs related to the settlement of a terminated distributor agreement.
	The Company does not expect to incur additional costs associated with this program. The Company expects to complete the program in 2015.
	2013 Restructuring Charges
	In 2013, the Company initiated programs to consolidate manufacturing facilities in North America and warehouse facilities in Europe and terminate certain European distributor agreements in an effort to reduce costs. As a result of these actions, the Company estimates that it will incur an aggregate of up to $11.0 million in restructuring and other impairment charges over the term of these restructuring programs, of which $10.8 million was incurred through June 29, 2014. These programs entail costs related to termination benefits, contract termination costs and charges related to post-closing obligations associated with its acquired businesses. As of June 29, 2014, the Company has a reserve of $1.6 million in connection with these programs. The Company expects to complete the programs in 2015.
	2012 Restructuring Charges
	In 2012, the Company identified opportunities to improve its supply chain strategy by consolidating its three North American warehouses into one centralized warehouse; and lower costs and improve operating efficiencies through the termination of certain distributor agreements in Europe, the closure of certain North American facilities and workforce reductions. Aside from nominal facility closure costs anticipated in 2014, the Company does not expect to incur additional costs associated with this program. As of June 29, 2014, the Company has a reserve of $0.6 million in connection with these projects. The Company expects to complete this program in 2015.
	Impairment Charges
	In the first quarter 2013, the Company recorded a $4.5 million in-process research and development (IPR&D) charge pertaining to a research and development project associated with the acquisition of the assets of Axiom Technology Partners LLP because technological feasibility had not yet been achieved and the Company determined that the subject technology had no future alternative use.
	There were no impairment charges recorded for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 or for the three months ended June 30, 2013.
	The restructuring and other impairment charges recognized for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013 consisted of the following:

	During the first quarter 2013, the Company recorded an IPR&D charge of $4.5 million. See Note 4 for additional information.
	In May 2012, the Company acquired Semprus BioSciences, a biomedical research and development company that developed a polymer surface treatment technology intended to reduce thrombus related complications. The Company experienced unexpected difficulties with respect to the development of the Semprus technology, which the Company is currently attempting to resolve through further research and testing. Failure to resolve these issues may result in a reduction of the expected future cash flows related to the Semprus technology and could result in the recognition of impairment charges with respect to the related assets, which could be material. As of June 29, 2014, the Company has recorded assets at risk of approximately $41.0 million related to this investment.

	Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $16.1 million and $12.1 million for the three months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and $32.1 million and $24.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

	5.25% Senior Notes

	On May 21, 2014, the Company issued $250.0 million of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The Company will pay interest on the 2024 Notes semi-annually on June 15 and December 15, commencing on December 15, 2014, at a rate of 5.25% per year. The 2024 Notes will mature on June 15, 2024, unless earlier redeemed or purchased by the Company at the holder’s option under specified circumstances following a Change of Control or Asset Sale (each as defined in the Indenture related to the 2024 Notes) or upon the Company’s election to exercise its optional redemption rights, as described below. The Company incurred transaction fees of approximately $4.7 million, including underwriters’ discounts and commissions in connection with the offering of the 2024 Notes, which were recorded as a deferred asset and are being amortized over the term of the 2024 Notes. The Company used $245.0 million of the proceeds to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

	The Company's obligations under the 2024 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that is a guarantor or other obligor under the Company’s revolving credit facility and by certain of the Company’s other wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.
	At any time on or after June 15, 2019, the Company may, on one or more occasions, redeem some or all of the 2024 Notes at a redemption price of 102.625% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes subject to redemption, declining, in annual increments of 0.875%, to 100% of the principal amount on June 15, 2022, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, at any time prior to June 15, 2019, the Company may, on one or more occasions, redeem some or all of the 2024 Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and any accrued and unpaid interest. The “make-whole” premium is the greater of (a) 1.0% of the principal amount of the 2024 Notes subject to redemption or (b) the excess, if any, over the principal amount of the 2024 Notes of the present value, on the redemption date of the sum of (i) the June 15, 2019 optional redemption price plus (ii) all required interest payments on the 2024 Notes through June 15, 2019 (other than accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date), calculated based on a specified Treasury rate, generally for the period most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to June 15, 2019, plus 50 basis points.

	In addition, at any time prior to June 15, 2017, the Company may, on one or more occasions, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes, using the proceeds of specified types of Company equity offerings and subject to specified conditions, at a redemption price equal to 105.25% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
	The 2024 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the Company’s ability, and the ability of its subsidiaries, to incur debt, create liens, consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets, make certain investments, engage in acquisitions, pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of capital stock and enter into swap agreements.

	Classification of 3.875% Convertible Notes as a Current Liability
	The Company’s 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Convertible Notes”) are convertible under certain circumstances, including in any fiscal quarter following an immediately preceding fiscal quarter in which the last reported sales price per share of our common stock for at least 20 days during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter exceeds 130% of the $61.32 per share conversion price of the Convertible Notes (approximately $79.72). Since the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company’s closing stock price has exceeded the 130% threshold described above and, accordingly, the Convertible Notes have been classified as a current liability as of June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The determination of whether or not the Convertible Notes are convertible under such circumstances is made each quarter until maturity or conversion. Consequently, the Convertible Notes may not be convertible in one or more future quarters if the common stock price-based contingent conversion threshold is not met in such quarters, in which case the Convertible Notes would again be classified as long-term debt unless another conversion event set forth in the Convertible Notes has occurred. The Company has elected a net settlement method to satisfy the conversion obligation, under which it may settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash and settle the excess of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes over the principal amount of the notes in shares; however, cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. While the Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to repay the principal amounts due through a combination of its existing cash on hand and borrowings under its credit facility, the Company’s use of these funds could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity. The classification of the Convertible Notes as a current liability had no impact on our financial covenants.

	Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

	The carrying amount of long-term debt reported in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2014 is $1,057.6 million. The Company uses quoted market prices to estimate the fair value of its publicly traded debt. To estimate the fair value of debt for which there are no quoted market prices, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve. The following table provides the fair value of the Company’s debt as of June 29, 2014, categorized by fair value hierarchy level (see Note 10, “Fair value measurement,” in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for further information):

Financial Instruments	'
	Note 8 — Financial instruments
	The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Forward exchange contracts are used to manage foreign currency transaction exposure. These derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and are recorded on the balance sheet at fair market value. The effective portion of the gains or losses on derivatives is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and thereafter is recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of income in the period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivatives representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of earnings in the period in which such gains and losses occur.
	The following table presents the location and fair values of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

	The total notional amount for all open foreign exchange contracts as of June 29, 2014 is approximately $42.6 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had no open forward rate exchange contracts.
	The following table provides information as to the gains and losses attributable to derivatives in cash flow hedging relationships that were reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013:

	See Note 10 for information on the location and amount of gains and losses attributable to derivatives that were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) to expense (income), net of tax.
	There was no ineffectiveness related to the Company’s derivatives used during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013.
	Based on exchange rates at June 29, 2014, approximately $0.1 million of unrealized gains, net of tax, within AOCI are expected to be reclassified from AOCI to the condensed consolidated statement of income during the remainder of 2014. However, the actual amount reclassified from AOCI could vary due to future changes in exchange rates.
	Concentration of Credit Risk
	Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. A portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the United States, however, include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries’ economies.
	In the ordinary course of business, the Company grants non-interest bearing trade credit to its customers on normal credit terms. In an effort to reduce its credit risk, the Company (i) establishes credit limits for all of its customer relationships, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of its customers’ receivables, and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance.
	An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for accounts receivable based on the Company’s historical collection experience and expected collectability of the accounts receivable, considering the period an account is outstanding, the financial position of the customer and information provided by credit rating services. The adequacy of this allowance is reviewed each reporting period and adjusted as necessary. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $10.2 million and $10.7 million at June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
	In light of the disruptions in global economic markets in recent years, the Company instituted enhanced measures, within countries where the Company has collectability concerns, to facilitate customer-by-customer risk assessment when estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts. Such measures include, among others, monthly credit control committee meetings, at which customer credit risks are identified after review of, among other things, accounts that exceed specified credit limits, payment delinquencies and other customer issues. In addition, for some of the Company’s non-government customers, the Company instituted measures designed to reduce its risk exposures, including issuing dunning letters, reducing credit limits, requiring that payments accompany orders and instituting legal action with respect to delinquent accounts. With respect to government customers, the Company evaluates receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement practices.
	Some of the Company’s customers, particularly in Europe, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided. Collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers, for the most part in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, resulted in an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts related to these countries. If the financial condition of these customers or the healthcare systems in these countries deteriorate such that the ability of an increasing number of customers to make payments is uncertain, additional allowances may be required in future periods. The aggregate net current and long-term accounts receivable for Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal as a percentage of the Company’s net current and long-term accounts receivable at June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are as follows:

		June 29,			December 31,

	For the six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, net revenues from customers in Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal were $79.6 million and $73.7 million, respectively.

	There were no transfers of financial assets or liabilities carried at fair value among Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 29, 2014.
	The following table provides information regarding changes in Level 3 financial liabilities related to contingent consideration in connection with various Company acquisitions during the six months ended June 29, 2014:

	Balance - December 31, 2013	$	20,313
	Revaluations		(6,617	)
	Balance - June 29, 2014	$	13,696

	For the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, the Company recorded net reductions to contingent consideration liabilities of $4.4 million and $6.7 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded reductions to contingent consideration liabilities of $6.6 million and $8.1 million, respectively. These reductions were the result of changes in probabilities associated with certain regulatory and sales milestones.
	Valuation Techniques
	The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to pay benefits under certain deferred compensation plans and other compensatory arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.
	The Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward exchange contracts. The Company uses forward rate exchange contracts to manage currency transaction exposure. The fair value of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts represents the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted market prices. The Company has taken into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties in measuring fair value.
	The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions. The Company accounts for contingent consideration in accordance with applicable accounting guidance related to business combinations. In connection with several of its acquisitions, the Company agreed to pay contingent consideration upon the achievement of specified objectives, including receipt of regulatory approvals, achievement of sales targets and, in some instances, the passage of time (collectively, “milestone payments”), and therefore recorded contingent consideration liabilities at the time of the acquisitions. The Company is required to reevaluate the fair value of contingent consideration each reporting period based on new developments and record changes in fair value until such consideration is satisfied through payment upon the achievement of the specified objectives or is no longer payable due to failure to achieve the specified objectives.
	It is estimated that milestone payments will occur in 2015 and may extend until 2018 or later. As of June 29, 2014, the range of undiscounted amounts the Company could be required to pay for contingent consideration arrangements is between zero and $56.5 million. The Company determines the fair value of the liabilities for the contingent consideration based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with future milestone payments is based on several factors including:
	—	estimated cash flows projected from the success of market launches;
	—	the estimated time and resources needed to complete the development of acquired technologies;
	—	the uncertainty of obtaining regulatory approvals within the required time periods; and
	—	the risk adjusted discount rate for fair value measurement.
	The following table provides information regarding the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of assets or liabilities categorized as Level 3 measurements as of June 29, 2014:

			Valuation Technique		Unobservable Input		Range (Weighted Average)
	Contingent consideration		Discounted cash flow		Discount rate		1.6%—10% (8.6%)
					Probability of payment		0%—100% (32.0%)
	As of June 29, 2014, of the $13.7 million of total recorded liabilities for contingent consideration, the Company has recorded approximately $3.0 million in Current portion of contingent consideration and the remaining $10.7 million in Other liabilities.

Changes in Shareholders' Equity	'
	Note 10 — Changes in shareholders’ equity
	In 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of outstanding Company common stock. Repurchases of Company stock under the Board authorization may be made from time to time in the open market and may include privately-negotiated transactions as market conditions warrant and subject to regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and the Company’s ability to execute on the program will depend on, among other factors, cash requirements for acquisitions, cash generated from operations, debt repayment obligations, market conditions and regulatory requirements. In addition, under the Company’s senior credit agreements, the Company is subject to certain restrictions relating to its ability to repurchase shares in the event the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the senior credit agreements) exceeds certain levels, which may limit the Company’s ability to repurchase shares under this Board authorization. Through June 29, 2014, no shares have been purchased under this Board authorization.
	The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding:

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended

	Diluted		46,392				43,429				46,071				43,238

	Weighted average shares that were antidilutive and therefore not included in the calculation of earnings per share were approximately 6.4 million and 6.5 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 respectively, and approximately 7.9 million for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
	The Convertible Notes are included in the diluted net income per share calculation only during periods in which the average market price of our common stock was above the applicable conversion price of the Convertible Notes, or $61.32 per share, and, therefore, the impact of conversion would not be anti-dilutive. In these periods, under the treasury stock method, we calculate the number of shares issuable under the terms of the Convertible Notes based on the average market price of the stock during the period, and include that number in the total diluted shares outstanding for the period.
	In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant agreements. The convertible note hedge economically reduces the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes. However, because applicable accounting guidance requires the Company to separately analyze the impact of the convertible note hedge agreements and the impact of the warrant agreements on diluted weighted average shares outstanding, the impact of the convertible note hedge agreements are excluded from the calculation of earnings per share because it would be anti-dilutive. The anti-dilutive shares associated with the convertible note hedges are 2.7 million and 2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively and 1.5 million and 1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The treasury stock method is applied when the warrants are in-the-money, assuming the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are used to repurchase shares based on the average stock price during the period. The strike price of the warrants is approximately $74.65 per share of common stock. Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were included in the total diluted shares outstanding were 1.9 million and 1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively and 0.4 million and 0.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively.
	For additional information regarding the convertible notes and convertible note hedge and warrant agreements see Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

	The Company has a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. The defined benefit pension plans are noncontributory. The benefits under these plans are based primarily on years of service and employees’ pay near retirement. The Company’s funding policy for U.S. plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws and regulations. Obligations under non-U.S. plans are systematically provided for by depositing funds with trustees or by book reserves. As of June 29, 2014, the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the Company’s other postretirement benefit plans, except certain postretirement benefit plans covering employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement, are frozen.
	The Company and certain of its subsidiaries provide medical, dental and life insurance benefits to pensioners and survivors. The associated plans are unfunded and approved claims are paid from Company funds.

Commitments and Contingent liabilities	Jun. 29, 2014
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities	'
	Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities
	Operating leases: The Company uses various leased facilities and equipment in its operations. The terms for these leased assets vary depending on the terms of the applicable lease agreement. At June 29, 2014, the Company had no residual value guarantee obligations related to its operating leases.
	As of June 29, 2014, the Company recorded $24.8 million in property, plant and equipment representing the estimated fair value of the Company’s percentage of the costs to construct a building under a build-to-suit lease. The build-to-suit lease was entered into in August 2013 and amended in March of 2014 and relates to a U.S. operating facility. Construction on the build-to-suit facility commenced in September 2013 and is expected to be completed in October 2014. The estimated fair value of the Company’s percentage of the construction costs to complete the build-to-suit lease is approximately $28.3 million. For accounting purposes, the Company is deemed the owner of the asset during the construction period and is required to record the estimated fair value of the Company’s percentage of the construction costs as construction in progress during the construction period and a related liability in the same amount. These amounts do not reflect the Company’s cash obligations, but represent the landlord’s costs to construct the Company’s portion of the building and tenant improvements. Based on current expectations, the Company believes that there are no continuing involvement requirements that would prohibit the Company from derecognizing the assets and related liabilities upon commencement of the respective lease terms.
	Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.
	Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has recorded $2.2 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in accrued liabilities and $5.4 million and $5.8 million, respectively, in other liabilities relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of June 29, 2014. The time frame, over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15-20 years.
	Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment and environmental matters. As of June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company has recorded reserves of approximately $5.0 million and $6.8 million, respectively, in connection with such contingencies, representing what it believes to be a better estimate of the cost than any other amount within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected future developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
	Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various taxing authorities. As of July 29, 2014, the most significant tax examinations in process are in Austria, Canada, the Czech Republic, Germany and the United States. In conjunction with these examinations and as a regular and routine practice, the Company may establish reserves or adjust existing reserves with respect to uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, developments occurring with respect to these examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.
	Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and items of permanent investment incident to the ordinary conduct of its business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market prices.

Business Segment Information	'
	Note 14 — Business segment information
	An operating segment is a component of the Company (a) that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, (b) whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance, and (c) for which discrete financial information is available. The Company does not evaluate its operating segments using discrete asset information.
	Effective January 1, 2014, the Company realigned its operating segments due to changes in the Company’s internal financial reporting structure. The Company’s North American Vascular, Anesthesia/Respiratory and Surgical businesses, which previously comprised much of the former Americas reportable segment, are now separate reportable segments. As a result, the Company now has six reportable segments: Vascular North America, Anesthesia/Respiratory North America, Surgical North America, EMEA, Asia and OEM. Certain operating segments are not material and are therefore included in the “All other” line item in tabular presentations of segment information. Additionally, the Company made changes to the allocation methodology of certain costs, including manufacturing variances and research and development costs, among the businesses to improve accountability, which resulted in changes to the previously reported segment profitability. All prior comparative periods have been restated to reflect these changes.
	The Company’s Vascular North America, Anesthesia/Respiratory North America, Surgical North America, EMEA and Asia reportable segments design, manufacture and distribute medical devices primarily used in critical care, surgical applications and cardiac care and generally serve two end markets: hospitals and healthcare providers, and home health. The products of these segments are most widely used in the acute care setting for a range of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures and in general and specialty surgical applications. The Company’s OEM segment designs, manufactures and supplies devices and instruments for other medical device manufacturers.

Condensed consolidated guarantor financial information	'
	Note 15 —Condensed consolidated guarantor financial information
	In June 2011, Teleflex Incorporated (referred to below as “Parent Company”) issued $250 million of 6.875% senior subordinated notes through a registered public offering. The notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 29, 2014 and June 30, 2013, provide consolidated information for:
	a.	Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;
	b.	Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;
	c.	Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis; and
	d.	Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
	The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidated financial information, except for the use by the Parent Company and Guarantor Subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.
	Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.
	The Company adjusted the 2013 condensed consolidating statement of cash flows included within the guarantor financial information to correctly present dividends received from subsidiaries as an operating activity. The corrections had no impact on the consolidated financial information, but only resulted in reclassifications among the parent, guarantor subsidiaries, non-guarantor subsidiaries and eliminations. The Company does not consider the errors to be material to the previously issued consolidated financial statements.
	The following table illustrates the increase/(decrease) to the previously reported amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2013:

New_Accounting_Standards_Polic

New Accounting Standards (Policies)	6 Months Ended
New Accounting Standards (Policies)	Jun. 29, 2014
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy	'
	In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance for the reporting of discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results will be reported as discontinued operations in an entity's financial statements. In addition, the new guidance requires additional disclosures for discontinued operations designed to provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of discontinued operations. The new guidance also requires disclosures regarding disposals of a significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting.This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

	In May 2014, the FASB, in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board, issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. The new guidance is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict 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 and services. The new guidance is effective prospectively for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.
	From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the specified effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued standards that are not yet effective and, unless otherwise discussed, believes these standards will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt	'
	The carrying amount of long-term debt reported in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 29, 2014 is $1,057.6 million. The Company uses quoted market prices to estimate the fair value of its publicly traded debt. To estimate the fair value of debt for which there are no quoted market prices, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve. The following table provides the fair value of the Company’s debt as of June 29, 2014, categorized by fair value hierarchy level (see Note 10, “Fair value measurement,” in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for further information):

Aggregate Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts	'
	Some of the Company’s customers, particularly in Europe, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided. Collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers, for the most part in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, resulted in an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts related to these countries. If the financial condition of these customers or the healthcare systems in these countries deteriorate such that the ability of an increasing number of customers to make payments is uncertain, additional allowances may be required in future periods. The aggregate net current and long-term accounts receivable for Spain, Italy, Greece and Portugal as a percentage of the Company’s net current and long-term accounts receivable at June 29, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are as follows:
