NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited, dollars in millions, except per share data and where indicated)
|
| |
1. | Background and Basis of Presentation |
Background
Mallinckrodt plc, and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Mallinckrodt" or "the Company"), is a global specialty biopharmaceutical and medical imaging business that develops, manufactures, markets and distributes specialty pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products and medical imaging agents. Therapeutic areas of focus include autoimmune and rare disease specialty areas (including neurology, rheumatology, nephrology and pulmonology), along with pain and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder for prescription by physicians based in offices, hospitals and ambulatory care centers. The Company also supports the diagnosis of disease with nuclear medicine and contrast imaging agents. Its products are found in almost every hospital, standalone diagnostic imaging center or pharmacy in the United States ("U.S.") and the Company has a commercial presence in approximately 65 countries. The Company believes its experience in the acquisition and management of highly regulated raw materials; deep regulatory expertise; and specialized chemistry, formulation and manufacturing capabilities have created compelling competitive advantages that it anticipates will sustain future revenue growth.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, the integration of Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Questcor") was substantially completed. With this, and given the increased significance of the Specialty Brands business to the Company's results and the expected long-term growth of this business as compared to the Specialty Generics business, the Company has changed its reportable segments. The Company now presents the Specialty Brands and Specialty Generics businesses as reportable segments, along with the continued presentation of Global Medical Imaging as a reportable segment. The Company historically presented the Specialty Brands and Specialty Generics businesses within the Specialty Pharmaceuticals segment. Prior year amounts have been recast to conform to current presentation. The three reportable segments are further described below:
| |
• | Specialty Brands produces and markets branded pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals; |
| |
• | Specialty Generics produces specialty generic pharmaceuticals and active pharmaceutical ingredients ("API") consisting of biologics, medicinal opioids, synthetic controlled substances, acetaminophen and other active ingredients; and |
| |
• | Global Medical Imaging manufactures and markets contrast media and delivery systems ("CMDS") and radiopharmaceuticals (nuclear medicine). |
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. Dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and entities in which they own or control more than fifty percent of the voting shares, or have the ability to control through similar rights. The results of entities disposed of are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements up to the date of disposal and, where appropriate, these operations have been reflected as discontinued operations. Divestitures of product lines not representing businesses have been reflected in operating income. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation and, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the interim results reported. The fiscal year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all of the annual disclosures required by GAAP; accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual consolidated and combined financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("the SEC") on November 24, 2014.
Fiscal Year
The Company reports its results based on a "52-53 week" year ending on the last Friday of September. The first fiscal quarters of 2015 and 2014 ended on December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, respectively. Unless otherwise indicated, the three months ended December 26, 2014 refers to the thirteen week period ended December 26, 2014 and the three months ended December 27, 2013 refers to the thirteen week period ended December 27, 2013. Fiscal 2014 consisted of 52 weeks and ended on September 26, 2014.

2. | Recently Issued Accounting Standards |
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-04, "Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date," in February 2013. This update provides guidance for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance. An entity is required to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the entity has agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors, and any additional amounts it expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The guidance also requires the entity to disclose the nature and amount of those obligations. The guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
FASB issued ASU 2013-11, "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists," in July 2013. This update provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward exists, to eliminate diversity in practice in the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits in those instances. Except in certain circumstances, an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward. This guidance was effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
FASB issued ASU 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity," in April 2014. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in a company's operations and financial results should be reported as discontinued operations, with expanded disclosures. In addition, disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify as a discontinued operation is required. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company has not had any recent significant disposals. The Company will assess the impact of the pronouncement to prospective disposals, if applicable, for potential disclosures in future filings and may consider early adoption of the guidance.
FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," in May 2014. The issuance of ASU 2014-09 and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," completes the joint effort by FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and IFRS. Under the new guidance, an entity should recognize 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 or services, applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Early adoption is not permitted for public companies. The Company continues to assess the potential impact of the guidance.

3. | License of Intellectual Property |
The Company was involved in patent disputes with a counterparty relating to certain intellectual property relevant to extended-release oxymorphone. In December 2013, the counterparty agreed to pay the Company an upfront cash payment of $4.0 million and contractually obligated future payments of $8.0 million through July 2018, in exchange for the withdrawal of all claims associated with the intellectual property and a license to utilize the Company's intellectual property. The Company completed the earnings process associated with the agreement and recorded an $11.7 million gain, included within gains on divestiture and license, during the three months ended December 27, 2013.

4. | Acquisitions and License Agreements |
Business Acquisitions
Questcor Pharmaceuticals
On August 14, 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Questcor, a biopharmaceutical company, for total consideration of approximately $5.9 billion, comprised of cash consideration of $30.00 per share, 0.897 ordinary shares of the Company for each share of Questcor common stock owned and the portion of outstanding equity awards deemed to have been earned as of August 14, 2014 ("the Questcor Acquisition"). The acquisition was funded through an issuance of approximately 57 million ordinary shares, proceeds from the issuance of $900.0 million aggregate principle of senior unsecured notes, proceeds from the issuance of $700.0 million senior secured term loan facility, $150.0 million of cash from a receivable securitization program, as further discussed in Note 11, and cash on hand. H.P. Acthar® Gel (repository corticotropin injection) ("Acthar"), Questcor's primary product, is focused on the treatment of patients with serious, difficult-to-treat autoimmune and rare diseases. Acthar is an injectable drug that is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for use in 19 indications, including the currently marketed areas of neurology, rheumatology, nephrology and pulmonology. As part of the acquisition, the Company also acquired BioVectra, Inc. ("BioVectra"), a specialty contract manufacturer that provides services to the global pharmaceuticals and biotechnology industry.
Cadence Pharmaceuticals
On March 19, 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock of Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Cadence"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on commercializing products principally for use in the hospital setting, for total consideration of $14.00 per share in cash, or approximately $1.3 billion ("the Cadence Acquisition"). The acquisition was primarily funded through a $1.3 billion senior secured term loan credit facility, as further discussed in Note 11. Cadence's sole product, OFIRMEV® (acetaminophen) injection ("Ofirmev"), is a proprietary intravenous formulation of acetaminophen for the management of mild to moderate pain, the management of moderate to severe pain with adjunctive opioid analgesics and the reduction of fever. The Cadence Acquisition added a growth product to the Specialty Brands segment and provides the Company an opportunity to expand its reach into the adjacent hospital market, in which Cadence had established a presence.
Fair Value Allocation
The following amounts represent the preliminary allocation of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Questcor Acquisition, including preliminary goodwill and intangible assets, and the related deferred tax balances. The Company expects to complete its valuation analysis and finalize deferred tax balances as of the acquisition date no later than twelve months from the date of the Questcor Acquisition. The changes in the purchase price allocation and preliminary goodwill based on the final valuation may include, but are not limited to, the impact of state tax rates in determining the deferred tax balances. During the three months ended December 26, 2014, there were adjustments to the purchase price allocation primarily related to the ongoing evaluation of U.S. state tax balances. The following also presents the final allocation of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the Cadence Acquisition. There were no measurement period adjustments recognized during the three months ended December 26, 2014 that would amend the previously disclosed preliminary purchase price allocation for the Cadence Acquisition.

| | |
The completed technology intangible asset relates to Acthar. The trademark and customer relationship intangible assets relate to BioVectra. The in-process research and development ("IPR&D") relates to the development of Synacthen®, a synthetic pharmaceutical product. The fair values of the intangible assets were determined using the income approach, which is a valuation technique that provides an estimate of the fair value of the asset based on market participant expectations of the cash flows an asset would generate. The cash flows were discounted at various discount rates commensurate with the level of risk associated with each asset or their projected cash flows. Completed technology, customer relationships, trademark and IPR&D intangibles utilized discount rates of 14.5%, 10.0%, 10.0% and 16.0%, respectively. The IPR&D discount rate was developed after assigning a probability of success to achieving the projected cash flows based on the current stage of development, inherent uncertainty in the FDA approval process and risks associated with commercialization of a new product. Based on the Company's preliminary estimate, the excess of purchase price over net tangible and intangible assets acquired resulted in goodwill, which represents the assembled workforce, anticipated synergies and the tax status of the transaction. The goodwill is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. The majority of the assets acquired are included within the Company's Specialty Brands segment.
|
| | | | | |
Cadence | Amount | | Amortization Period |
Completed technology | $ | 1,300.0 |

The completed technology intangible asset relates to Ofirmev, the rights to which have been in-licensed from Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS"). The fair value of the intangible asset was determined using the income approach and the cash flows were discounted at a 13.0% rate. For more information on the BMS license agreement, refer to "License Agreement" below. The excess of purchase price over net tangible and intangible assets acquired resulted in goodwill, which represents the assembled workforce, anticipated synergies and the tax status of the transaction. The goodwill is not deductible for U.S. income tax purposes. All assets acquired are included within the Company's Specialty Brands segment.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents a summary of the combined results of operations for the periods indicated as if the Questcor Acquisition and the Cadence Acquisition had been completed as of September 29, 2012. The pro forma financial information is based on the historical financial information for the Company, Questcor and Cadence, along with certain pro forma adjustments. These pro forma adjustments consist primarily of:
| |
• | increased amortization expense related to the intangible assets acquired in the acquisitions; |
| |
• | increased interest expense to reflect the fixed-rate senior unsecured notes and variable-rate term loan entered into in connection with the Questcor Acquisition (utilizing the interest rate in effect at the acquisition date of 3.50%) and the variable-rate term loan and revolving credit facility entered into in connection with the Cadence Acquisition (utilizing the interest rate in effect at the acquisition date of 3.50%), including interest and amortization of deferred financing costs and original issue discount; and |
| |
• | the related income tax effects. |
The following unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations as they would have been had the acquisitions occurred on the assumed date, nor is it necessarily an indication of future operating results.

5. | Restructuring and Related Charges |
During fiscal 2013, the Company launched a restructuring program designed to improve its cost structure ("the 2013 Mallinckrodt Program"). The 2013 Mallinckrodt Program includes actions across all segments, as well as within corporate functions. The Company expects to incur charges of $100.0 million to $125.0 million under this program as the specific actions required to execute on these initiatives are identified and approved, most of which are expected to be incurred by the end of fiscal 2016. In addition to the 2013 Mallinckrodt Program, the Company has taken restructuring actions to generate synergies from its fiscal 2014 acquisitions.

The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $9.3 million on income from continuing operations before income taxes of $82.8 million for the three months ended December 26, 2014 and income tax expense of $16.6 million on income from continuing operations before income taxes of $63.0 million for the three months ended December 27, 2013. This resulted in effective tax rates of negative 11.2% and 26.3% for the three months ended December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, respectively.
The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three months ended December 26, 2014, as compared with the three months ended December 27, 2013, is predominately attributable to the deferred tax benefit of the amortization of acquired intangible assets and an increase to the rate difference between non-U.S. and U.S. tax jurisdictions following recent acquisitions, which includes the tax impacts of acquisition financing and the integration of the acquired intangible property into the Company's legal entity structure. As a part of the Cadence integration, the Company entered into an internal installment sale transaction during the year ended September 26, 2014. As a part of the Questcor integration, the Company entered into an internal installment sale transaction during the three months ended December 26, 2014. The Questcor internal installment sale transaction resulted in a decrease of $1,488.7 million to the deferred tax liability associated with the Acthar intangible asset, a $1,515.9 million increase to the deferred tax liability associated with an installment sale note receivable, a $25.3 million increase to deferred tax charge and a $1.9 million increase to prepaid taxes.
The Company has refined its acquisition accounting estimate associated with the measurement of its acquired Questcor net deferred tax liabilities, resulting in an increase to the acquired net deferred tax liabilities from $1,900.7 million to $1,914.5 million. The adjustment predominately relates to the ongoing evaluation of the U.S. state taxation of the acquired business.
Income taxes included within prepaid expenses and other current assets have decreased by $54.3 million, predominately due to a reduction to the $60.0 million fiscal year 2014 tax receivable associated with the Questcor Acquisition having been realized through a cash tax refund of $20.0 million, and the remainder having been realized to satisfy operational income tax obligations attributable to the three months ended December 26, 2014. Similarly, current deferred tax assets have decreased by $18.8 million, predominately attributable to the utilization of U.S. net operating losses from the fiscal year ended September 26, 2014.
The Company's unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest, totaled $83.9 million at December 26, 2014 and $82.0 million at September 26, 2014. The net increase of $1.9 million primarily resulted from increases to prior period tax positions of $0.3 million and current year activity of $3.3 million, partially offset by reductions to unrecognized tax benefits as a result of settlements of $0.9 million and the lapse of the applicable statutes of limitation of $0.8 million. If favorably settled, the $83.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits at December 26, 2014 would benefit the effective tax rate. The total amount of accrued interest related to these obligations was $44.3 million at December 26, 2014 and $45.1 million at September 26, 2014.
It is reasonably possible that within the next twelve months, as a result of the resolution of various federal, state and foreign examinations and appeals and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, the unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to $29.1 million and the amount of interest and penalties will decrease by up to $17.0 million.

7. | Earnings (Loss) per Share |
Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company's restricted stock awards, issued in conjunction with the Questcor Acquisition in August 2014, are considered participating securities as holders are entitled to receive non-forfeitable dividends during the vesting term. Diluted earnings per share includes securities that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share during a reporting period, for which the Company includes all share-based compensation awards other than participating securities. Dilutive securities, including participating securities, are not included in the computation of loss per share when the Company reports a net loss from continuing operations as the impact would be anti-dilutive.
Prior to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, basic earnings (loss) per share was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted-average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share was computed using the weighted-average shares outstanding and, if dilutive, potential ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Potential ordinary shares represented the incremental ordinary shares issuable for restricted share units and share option exercises. The Company calculated the dilutive effect of outstanding restricted share units and share options on earnings (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method.

In April 2013, Mallinckrodt International Finance S.A. ("MIFSA"), a subsidiary of the Company, issued and sold in a private placement $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% senior unsecured notes due April 2018 and $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due April 2023 (collectively, "the Notes"). The Notes are subject to an indenture which contains customary affirmative and negative covenants. Mallinckrodt plc has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Notes on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis. MIFSA pays interest on the Notes semiannually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.
In March 2014, in connection with the Cadence Acquisition, MIFSA and Mallinckrodt CB LLC ("MCB"), each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into senior secured credit facilities consisting of a $1.3 billion term loan facility due 2021 ("the Term Loan") and a $250.0 million revolving credit facility due 2019 ("the Revolver") (collectively, "the Facilities"). The Facilities are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Mallinckrodt plc, certain of its direct or indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries and each of its direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries that owns directly or indirectly any such wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary (collectively, "the Guarantors"). The Facilities contain customary affirmative and negative covenants and are secured by a security interest in certain assets of MIFSA, MCB and the Guarantors. The Facilities bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company's total net leverage ratio, and the Term Loan is subject to a minimum LIBOR level of 0.75%. Interest payment dates are variable based on the LIBOR rate utilized, but the Company generally expects interest to be payable every 90 days. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan payable on the last day of each calendar quarter, which commenced June 30, 2014, with the remaining balance payable on the due date, March 19, 2021. The Company incurred an original issue discount of 0.25%, or $3.3 million, associated with the Term Loan, of which $2.9 million remained as of December 26, 2014. The Revolver contains a $150.0 million letter of credit provision, of which none had been issued as of December 26, 2014. The fee applied to outstanding letters of credit is based on the interest rate applied to borrowings. As of December 26, 2014, the applicable interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Revolver would have been approximately 3.00%; however, there were no outstanding borrowings. As of December 26, 2014, the applicable interest rate for the Term Loan was 3.25% and outstanding borrowings totaled approximately $1.3 billion.
In July 2014, Mallinckrodt Securitization S.À.R.L. ("Mallinckrodt Securitization"), a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of the Company, entered into a $160.0 million accounts receivable securitization facility that matures in July 2017 ("the Receivable Securitization"). Mallinckrodt Securitization may, from time to time, obtain up to $160.0 million in third-party borrowings secured by certain receivables, which may be increased to $300.0 million upon approval of the third-party lenders, subject to certain conditions. The Receivable Securitization agreements contain customary representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. Loans under the Receivable Securitization bear interest (including facility fees) at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus a margin of 0.80%, and are repaid as the secured receivables are collected. As of December 26, 2014, the applicable interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Receivable Securitization was 0.96% and outstanding borrowings totaled $150.0 million.
In August 2014, MIFSA and MCB issued $900.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes due August 1, 2022 ("the 2022 Notes"). The 2022 Notes are guaranteed on an unsecured basis by certain of MIFSA's subsidiaries and are subject to an indenture that contains certain customary covenants and events of default. The indenture also allows for early redemption under certain circumstances. MIFSA will pay interest on the 2022 Notes semiannually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, which commenced on February 1, 2015.
In August 2014, MIFSA and MCB entered into a $700.0 million senior secured term loan facility ("the New Term Loan"). The New Term Loan is an incremental tranche under the credit agreement governing the Facilities entered into in March 2014, and has substantially similar terms to the Term Loan (other than pricing), including the determination of interest rates and quarterly principal amortization payments equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the New Term Loan. The quarterly principal payments commenced on December 31, 2014, with the remaining balance payable on the due date of March 19, 2021. Mallinckrodt plc and its subsidiaries (other than MIFSA, MCB and the subsidiaries of MIFSA that guarantee the Facilities) will not guarantee the New Term Loan, and the New Term Loan will not be secured by the assets of such entities. The New Term Loan bears interest under substantially similar terms of the Term Loan, including the use of LIBOR rates with a minimum floor, except that the margin applied to LIBOR is not dependent upon the Company's total net leverage ratio. At December 26, 2014, the applicable interest rate for the New Term Loan was 3.50% and outstanding borrowings totaled $700.0 million.
As of December 26, 2014, the Company was, and expects to remain, in compliance with the provisions and covenants associated with its debt agreements.

14. | Transactions with Former Parent Company |
On June 28, 2013, the Pharmaceuticals business of Covidien plc ("Covidien") was transferred to Mallinckrodt plc, thereby completing its legal separation from Covidien ("the Separation"). Prior to the completion of the Separation on June 28, 2013, the Company was part of Covidien and, as such, transactions between Covidien and the Company were considered related party transactions. The continuing relationship between Covidien and the Company is primarily governed through agreements entered into as part of the Separation, including a separation and distribution agreement, a tax matters agreement and a transition services agreement. These agreements were filed with the SEC as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1 and 10.3, respectively, to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 1, 2013. For further discussion on these agreements and other historical related party transactions, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 13, 2013.
Sales and Purchases
During the three months ended December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, the Company sold inventory to Covidien in the amount of $9.2 million and $12.1 million, respectively, which is included in net sales in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company also purchases inventories from Covidien. The Company recognized cost of sales from these inventory purchases of $4.5 million and $10.0 million during the three months ended December 26, 2014 and December 27, 2013, respectively.
Balance Sheet Impacts
Subsequent to the Separation, the Company and Covidien maintain an ongoing relationship in which each party may provide services to the other party, including the distribution of goods. As a result of these relationships, the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014 included $17.5 million and $82.2 million, respectively, of amounts due to the Company from Covidien, within prepaid expenses and other current assets, and $20.0 million and $84.5 million, respectively, of amounts the Company owes Covidien, included within accrued and other liabilities.
Transition Services Agreement
The Company and Covidien entered into a transition services agreement in connection with the Separation pursuant to which the Company and Covidien provided each other, on an interim and transitional basis, various services including, but not limited to, treasury administration, information technology services, non-exclusive distribution and importation services for the Company's products in certain countries outside the U.S., regulatory, general and administrative services and other support services. The agreed-upon charges for such services were generally intended to allow the servicing party to recover all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, and included a predetermined profit margin. The Company terminated the transition services agreement during the three months ended December 26, 2014.
In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company has historically provided representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks and liabilities, including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities related to periods prior to disposition. The Company assesses the probability of potential liabilities related to such representations, warranties and indemnities and adjusts potential liabilities as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. The Company believes, given the information currently available, that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In connection with the sale of the Specialty Chemicals business (formerly known as Mallinckrodt Baker) in fiscal 2010, the Company agreed to indemnify the purchaser with respect to various matters, including certain environmental, health, safety, tax and other matters. The indemnification obligations relating to certain environmental, health and safety matters have a term of 17 years from the sale, while some of the other indemnification obligations have an indefinite term. The amount of the liability relating to all of these indemnification obligations included in other liabilities on the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014 was $15.7 million and $16.6 million, respectively, of which $12.9 million and $13.9 million, respectively, related to environmental, health and safety matters. The value of the environmental, health and safety indemnity was measured based on the probability-weighted present value of the costs expected to be incurred to address environmental, health and safety claims made under the indemnity. The aggregate fair value of these indemnification obligations did not differ significantly from their aggregate carrying value at December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014. As of December 26, 2014, the maximum future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification obligations was $71.0 million. The Company was required to pay $30.0 million into an escrow account as collateral to the purchaser, of which $19.0 million and $19.4 million remained in other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014, respectively.
The Company has recorded liabilities for known indemnification obligations included as part of environmental liabilities, which are discussed in Note 16. In addition, the Company is liable for product performance; however, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company is required to provide the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission financial assurance demonstrating its ability to fund the decommissioning of its Maryland Heights, Missouri radiopharmaceuticals production facility upon closure, though the Company does not intend to close this facility. The Company has provided this financial assurance in the form of a $57.2 million surety bond.
In addition, as of December 26, 2014, the Company had a $21.1 million letter of credit to guarantee decommissioning costs associated with its Saint Louis, Missouri plant, though it does not intend to close this facility. As of December 26, 2014, the Company had various other letters of credit and guarantee and surety bonds totaling $33.2 million.
In addition, the separation and distribution agreement entered into with Covidien at the Separation provides for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility of the obligations and liabilities of the Company's business with the Company and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of Covidien's remaining business with Covidien, among other indemnities.

16. | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, product liability matters, environmental matters, employment disputes, contractual disputes and other commercial disputes, including those described below. The Company believes that these legal proceedings and claims likely will be resolved over an extended period of time. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters, the Company believes, unless indicated below, given the information currently available, that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Governmental Proceedings
On November 30, 2011 and October 22, 2012, the Company received subpoenas from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration requesting production of documents relating to its suspicious order monitoring program.
On September 24, 2012, Questcor received a subpoena from the United States Attorney's Office ("the USAO") for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania for information relating to its promotional practices. Questcor has also been informed by the USAO for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania that the USAO for the Southern District of New York and the SEC are also participating in the investigation to review Questcor's promotional practices and related matters.
On June 11, 2014, Questcor received a subpoena and Civil Investigative Demand ("CID") from the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") seeking documentary materials and information regarding the FTC's investigation into whether Questcor's acquisition of certain rights to develop, market, manufacture, distribute, sell and commercialize Synacthen Depot® from Novartis AG and Novartis Pharma AG (collectively, "Novartis") violates antitrust laws.
In late November 2014, the Company received a CID from the Civil Medicaid Fraud Division of the Texas Attorney General's Office. According to the CID, the Attorney General's office is investigating the possibility of false reporting of information by the Company regarding the prices of certain of its drugs used by Texas Medicaid to establish reimbursement rates for pharmacies that dispensed the Company's drugs to Texas Medicaid recipients.
The Company is in the process of responding to each of the subpoenas and CIDs and intends to cooperate fully in each investigation.
Mallinckrodt Inc. v. U.S. Food and Drug Administration and United States of America. The Company filed a Complaint for Declaratory and Injunctive Relief in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland Greenbelt Division against the FDA and the United States of America on November 17, 2014 for judicial review of what the Company believes is the FDA's inappropriate and unlawful reclassification of the Company's Methylphenidate HCl Extended-Release tablets USP (CII) ("Methylphenidate ER") in the Orange Book: Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence ("Orange Book") on November 13, 2014. In its complaint, the Company has asked the court to: issue an injunction to (a) set aside the FDA's reclassification of the Company's Methylphenidate ER products from freely substitutable at the pharmacy level (class AB) to presumed to be therapeutically inequivalent (class BX) in the Orange Book and (b) prohibit the FDA from reclassifying the Company's Methylphenidate ER products in the future without following applicable legal requirements; and issue a declaratory judgment that the FDA's action reclassifying the Company's Methylphenidate ER products in the Orange Book is unlawful. The Company concurrently filed a motion with the same court requesting an expedited hearing to issue a temporary restraining order ("TRO") directing the FDA to reinstate the Orange Book AB rating for the Company's Methylphenidate ER products on a temporary basis. At a hearing held on November 25, 2014, the court denied the Company's motion for a TRO. On December 23, 2014, the FDA filed a motion to dismiss the Compliant with the district court. The Company filed its opposition to the motion to dismiss on January 9, 2015, and concurrently filed a motion for summary judgment.
Patent/Antitrust Litigation
Tyco Healthcare Group LP, et al. v. Mutual Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. In March 2007, the Company filed a patent infringement suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey against Mutual Pharmaceutical Co., Inc., et al. (collectively, "Mutual") after Mutual submitted an Abbreviated New Drug Application ("ANDA") to the FDA seeking to sell a generic version of the Company's 7.5mg RESTORIL™ sleep aid product. Mutual also filed antitrust and unfair competition counterclaims. The patents at issue have since expired or been found invalid. On January 18, 2013, the trial court issued an opinion and order granting the Company's motion for summary judgment regarding Mutual's antitrust and unfair competition counterclaims. On May 1, 2013, Mutual appealed this decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and on August 6, 2014, the Federal Circuit issued a split decision, affirming the trial court in part and remanding to the trial court certain counterclaims for further proceedings. In December 2014, the Company filed a motion for summary judgment with the U.S. District Court regarding the remanded issues.
'222 and '218 Patent Litigation: Exela Pharma Sciences, LLC. In August 2011, Cadence, a subsidiary of the Company, and Pharmatop, the owner of the two U.S. patents licensed exclusively by Cadence, filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Exela Pharma Sciences, LLC, Exela PharmaSci, Inc. and Exela Holdings, Inc. (collectively, "Exela"), alleging that Exela infringed U.S. Patent Nos. 6,028,222 ("the '222 patent") and 6,992,218 ("the '218 patent") by submitting an ANDA to the FDA seeking to sell a generic version of Ofirmev. The filing of the lawsuit triggered a stay of FDA approval of the Exela ANDA until the earlier of the expiration of a 30-month period, the expiration of the '222 and '218 patents, the entry of a settlement order or consent decree stating that the '222 and '218 patents are invalid or not infringed, a decision in the case concerning infringement or validity that is favorable to Exela, or such shorter or longer period as the court may order. After a bench trial, the court ruled in favor of Cadence in November 2013 and found that Exela's ANDA infringed the '222 and '218 patents. On December 20, 2013, Excela appealed the decision and oral arguments in the appeal occurred on November 7, 2014. It is not possible at this time to predict the outcome of this appeal.
'222 and '218 Patent Litigation: InnoPharma Licensing LLC and InnoPharma, Inc. In September 2014, Cadence and Mallinckrodt IP, subsidiaries of the Company, filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against InnoPharma Licensing LLC and InnoPharma, Inc. (collectively "InnoPharma") following receipt of an August 2014 notice from InnoPharma concerning its submission of a New Drug Application ("NDA"), containing a Paragraph IV patent certification with the FDA for a competing version of Ofirmev.
'222 and '218 Patent Litigation: Agila Specialties Private Limited, Inc. and Agila Specialties Inc. (a Mylan Inc. Company), (collectively "Agila"). In December 2014, Cadence and Mallinckrodt IP, subsidiaries of the Company, filed suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Agila following receipt of a November 2014 notice from Agila concerning its submission of a NDA containing a Paragraph IV patent certification with the FDA for a competing version of Ofirmev.
The Company intends to vigorously enforce its intellectual property rights relating to Ofirmev to prevent the marketing of infringing generic or competing products prior to the expiration of the Cadence patents. An adverse outcome in either the Exela or InnoPharma or Agila matters ultimately could result in the launch of one or more generic versions of Ofirmev before the expiration of the last of the listed patents on June 6, 2021 (or December 6, 2021 if pediatric exclusivity is granted), which could adversely affect the Company's ability to successfully maximize the value of Ofirmev and have an adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
'222 and '218 Patents: Ex Parte Reexamination. In September 2012, Exela filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") a Request for Ex Parte Reexamination of the '222 patent and the USPTO granted that request. The reexamination process requires the USPTO to consider the scope and validity of the patent based on substantial new questions of patentability raised by a third-party or the USPTO. Cadence and Pharmatop have filed, with the USPTO, a patent owner's statement commenting on the reexamination request, and thereafter the parties have made various submissions. In July 2014, a Second Final Office Action was issued by the USPTO in which certain claims were indicated to be allowable and certain claims were rejected. A subsequent amendment was filed in September 2014, but the USPTO did not enter that amendment. In October 2014, Cadence and Pharmatop filed a notice of appeal and an appeal brief is to be filed.
In addition, in January 2014, an unidentified third-party filed, with the USPTO, a Request for Ex Parte Reexamination of the '218 patent. The reexamination request was granted on March 14, 2014. In July 2014, the USPTO issued a Non-Final Office Action in the '218 reexamination in which it rejected certain claims. In September 2014, Cadence and Pharmatop filed an Amendment and Response to the Office Action.
All of the claims of the '222 and '218 patents remain valid and in force during the reexamination proceedings. Because the Company and Pharmatop believe that the scope and validity of the patent claims in these patents are appropriate and that the USPTO's prior issuances of the patents were correct, the Company, in conjunction with Pharmatop, will vigorously defend these patents. It is not possible at this time to determine with certainty whether the Company will ultimately succeed in maintaining the scope and validity of the claims of these patents during reexamination. If any of the patent claims in these patents ultimately are narrowed during prosecution before the USPTO, the extent of the patent coverage afforded to Ofirmev could be impaired, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
'218 Patent Litigation: Exela Pharma Sciences, LLC. In April 2012, Exela filed suit against David J. Kappos and the USPTO in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia for declaratory judgment seeking a reversal of the USPTO's decision not to act on a petition by Exela to vacate the USPTO's April 2003 order reviving the international application for the '218 patent. The lawsuit followed the USPTO's rejection of Exela's petition to the USPTO filed in November 2011, which sought to vacate the April 2003 order. The USPTO determined that Exela lacked standing to seek such relief. Exela also seeks declaratory judgment that the USPTO's rules and regulations that allow for revival of abandoned, international patent applications under the "unintentional" standard are invalid, and seeks similar relief in connection with one or more counterclaims it has filed in the Delaware litigation. Cadence intervened in this lawsuit and in December 2012, the district court dismissed the case with prejudice as barred by the applicable statute of limitations. In February 2013, Exela appealed the dismissal to the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, oral argument was held in February 2014 and a final decision has not been issued.
'222 and '218 Patent Litigation Settlements. Four other similar cases involving generic and/or competing versions of Ofirmev have previously settled. In each settlement, the defendant was granted the non-exclusive right to market a generic intravenous acetaminophen product in the U.S. under its respective ANDA after December 6, 2020, or earlier under certain circumstances. In connection with those settlements, one settling party was granted the exclusive right of first refusal to negotiate an agreement with Cadence to market an authorized generic of Ofirmev in the U.S. in the event that Cadence elects to launch an authorized generic version of the product. If that settling party elects not to exercise its right of first refusal, Cadence has agreed to grant a similar right of first refusal to another settling party. As part of another settlement, Cadence entered into a supply agreement under which an affiliate of one of the settling parties will develop, manufacture and supply commercial quantities of Ofirmev to the Company if certain regulatory approvals are obtained.
Commercial and Securities Litigation
Retrophin Litigation. In January 2014, Retrophin, Inc. filed a lawsuit against Questcor in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, alleging a variety of federal and state antitrust violations based on Questcor's acquisition from Novartis of certain rights to develop, market, manufacture, distribute, sell and commercialize Synacthen. Discovery has commenced, and the court set July 10, 2015 as the deadline for filing dispositive motions. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the outcome of this investigation, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that its ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Glenridge Litigation. In June 2011, Glenridge Pharmaceuticals, LLC ("Glenridge"), filed a lawsuit against Questcor in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County, alleging that Questcor had underpaid royalties to Glenridge under a royalty agreement related to net sales of Acthar. In August 2012, Questcor filed a separate lawsuit against the three principals of Glenridge, as well as Glenridge, challenging the enforceability of the royalty agreement. In August 2013, the lawsuits were consolidated into one case in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County. On October 29, 2014, the parties entered into a binding term sheet settling the lawsuit. Under the terms of the settlement, the royalty rate payable by Questcor was reduced, royalties were capped instead of being payable for so long as Acthar was sold and Questcor agreed to pay Glenridge a reduced amount in satisfaction of royalties Questcor had withheld in the course of the lawsuit.
Putative Class Action Securities Litigation. On September 26, 2012, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against Questcor and certain of its officers and directors in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, captioned John K. Norton v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, et al., No. SACvl2-1623 DMG (FMOx). The complaint purports to be brought on behalf of shareholders who purchased Questcor common stock between April 26, 2011 and September 21, 2012. The complaint generally alleges that Questcor and certain of its officers and directors engaged in various acts to artificially inflate the price of Questcor stock and enable insiders to profit through stock sales. The complaint asserts that Questcor and certain of its officers and directors violated sections l0(b) and/or 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("the Exchange Act"), by making allegedly false and/or misleading statements concerning the clinical evidence to support the use of Acthar for indications other than infantile spasms, the promotion of the sale and use of Acthar in the treatment of multiple sclerosis and nephrotic syndrome, reimbursement for Acthar from third-party insurers, and Questcor's outlook and potential market growth for Acthar. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount and equitable relief against the defendants. This lawsuit has been consolidated with four subsequently-filed actions asserting similar claims under the caption: In re Questcor Securities Litigation, No. CV 12-01623 DMG (FMOx). On October 1, 2013, the District Court granted in part and denied in part Questcor's motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On October 29, 2013, Questcor filed an answer to the consolidated amended complaint. Discovery is currently ongoing. The court set a jury trial for December 1, 2015.
Federal Shareholder Derivative Litigation. On October 4, 2012, another alleged shareholder filed a derivative lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California captioned Gerald Easton v. Don M. Bailey, et al., No. SACV12-01716 DOC (JPRx). The suit asserts claims substantially identical to those asserted in the do Valle derivative action described below against the same defendants. This lawsuit has been consolidated with five subsequently-filed actions asserting similar claims under the caption: In re Questcor Shareholder Derivative Litigation, CV 12- 01716 DMG (FMOx). Following the resolution of the motion to dismiss in the consolidated putative securities class action, the court issued an order staying the federal derivative action until the earlier of: (a) 60 days after the resolution of any motion for summary judgment filed in the putative class action lawsuit, (b) 60 days after the deadline to file a motion for summary judgment in the putative class action lawsuit, if none is filed, or (c) the execution of any settlement agreement (including any partial settlement agreement) to resolve the putative class action lawsuit.
State Shareholder Derivative Litigation. On October 2, 2012, an alleged shareholder filed a derivative lawsuit purportedly on behalf of Questcor against certain of its officers and directors in the Superior Court of the State of California, Orange County, captioned Monika do Valle v. Virgil D. Thompson, et al., No. 30-2012-00602258-CU-SL-CXC. The complaint asserted claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, mismanagement and waste of corporate assets arising from substantially similar allegations as those contained in the putative securities class action described above, as well as from allegations relating to sales of Questcor common stock by the defendants and repurchases of Questcor common stock. The complaint sought an unspecified sum of damages and equitable relief. On October 24, 2012, another alleged shareholder filed a derivative lawsuit purportedly on behalf of Questcor
against certain of its officers and directors in the Superior Court of the State of California, Orange County, captioned Jones v. Bailey, et al., Case No. 30-2012-00608001-CU-MC-CXC. The suit asserted claims substantially identical to those asserted in the do Valle derivative action. On February 19, 2013, the court issued an order staying the state derivative actions until the putative federal securities class action and federal derivative actions are resolved. On May 17, 2014, the court granted plaintiffs' request for dismissal without prejudice of the Jones action. On November 18, 2014, the do Valle matter was voluntarily dismissed.
Put Options Securities Action. In March 2013, individual traders of put options filed a securities complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California captioned David Taban, et al. v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., No. SACV13-0425. The complaint generally asserts claims against Questcor and certain of its officers and directors for violations of the Exchange Act and for state law fraud and fraudulent concealment based on allegations similar to those asserted in the putative securities class action described above. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages of an unspecified amount. Following the resolution of the motion to dismiss in the consolidated putative securities class action, the court issued an order staying this action until the earlier of: (a) 60 days after the resolution of any motion for summary judgment filed in the putative class action lawsuit, (b) 60 days after the deadline to file a motion for summary judgment in the putative class action lawsuit, if none is filed, or (c) the execution of any settlement agreement (including any partial settlement agreement) to resolve the putative class action lawsuit. The case remains stayed.
Pricing Litigation
State of Utah v. Apotex Corp., et al. The Company, along with numerous other pharmaceuticals companies, is a defendant in this matter which was filed May 8, 2008, and is pending in the Third Judicial Circuit of Salt Lake County, Utah. The State of Utah alleges, generally, that the defendants reported false pricing information in connection with certain drugs that are reimbursable under Utah Medicaid, resulting in overpayment by Utah Medicaid for those drugs, and is seeking monetary damages and attorneys' fees. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to these claims and is vigorously defending against them. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the outcome of the case, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Environmental Remediation and Litigation Proceedings
The Company is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at a number of sites, including those described below. The ultimate cost of site cleanup and timing of future cash outlays is difficult to predict, given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the interpretation of applicable laws and regulations and alternative cleanup methods. The Company concluded that, as of December 26, 2014, it was probable that it would incur remedial costs in the range of $46.5 million to $108.8 million. The Company also concluded that, as of December 26, 2014, the best estimate within this range was $70.0 million, of which $8.0 million was included in accrued and other current liabilities and the remainder was included in environmental liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 26, 2014.
Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge Superfund Site, near Marion, Illinois. The Company is a successor in interest to International Minerals and Chemicals Corporation ("IMC"). Between 1967 and 1982, IMC leased portions of the Additional and Uncharacterized Sites ("AUS") Operable Unit at the Crab Orchard Superfund Site ("the Site") from the government and manufactured various explosives for use in mining and other operations. In March 2002, the Department of Justice, the U.S. Department of the Interior and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") (together, "the Government Agencies") issued a special notice letter to General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems, Inc. ("General Dynamics"), one of the other potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") at the Site, to compel General Dynamics to perform the remedial investigation and feasibility study ("RI/FS") for the AUS Operable Unit. General Dynamics negotiated an Administrative Order on Consent ("AOC") with the Government Agencies to conduct an extensive RI/FS at the Site under the direction of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. General Dynamics asserted in August 2004 that the Company is jointly and severally liable, along with approximately eight other lessees and operators at the AUS Operable Unit, for alleged contamination of soils and groundwater resulting from historic operations, and has threatened to file a contribution claim against the Company and other parties for recovery of its costs incurred in connection with the RI/FS activities being conducted at the AUS Operable Unit. The Company and other PRPs who received demand letters from General Dynamics have explored settlement alternatives, but have not reached settlement to date. The Company and other PRPs are awaiting completion of the RI/FS by General Dynamics before the initiation of formal PRP negotiations to address resolution of these alleged claims. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of this case, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the final resolution of all known claims, after taking into account amounts already accrued, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Mallinckrodt Veterinary, Inc., Millsboro, Delaware. The Company previously operated a plant in Millsboro, Delaware ("the Millsboro Site") that manufactured various animal healthcare products. In 2005, the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control found trichloroethylene ("TCE") in the Millsboro public water supply at levels that exceeded the federal drinking water standards. Further investigation to identify the TCE plume in the ground water indicated that the plume has extended to property owned by a third-party near the Millsboro Site. The Company, and another former owner, assumed responsibility for the Millsboro Site cleanup under the Alternative Superfund Program administered by the EPA. The Company and another PRP have entered into two AOCs with the EPA to perform investigations to abate, mitigate or eliminate the release or threat of release of hazardous substances at the Millsboro Site and to conduct an Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis to characterize the nature and extent of the contamination. The Company, along with the other party, continues to conduct the studies and prepare remediation plans in accordance with the AOCs. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of this matter, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of all known claims, after taking into account amounts already accrued, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Coldwater Creek, Saint Louis County, Missouri. The Company is named as a defendant in numerous tort complaints filed between February 2012 and October 2014 with numerous plaintiffs pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. These cases allege personal injury for alleged exposure to radiological substances present in Coldwater Creek in Missouri. Plaintiffs allegedly lived in various locations in Saint Louis County, Missouri near Coldwater Creek. Radiological residues which may have been present in the creek have been remediated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to these complaints and is vigorously defending against them. The Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses for the following reasons: (i) the proceedings are in early stages; (ii) the Company has not received and reviewed complete information regarding the plaintiffs and their medical conditions; and (iii) there are significant factual issues to be resolved. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these cases, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of all known claims will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Lower Passaic River, New Jersey. The Company and approximately 60 other companies comprise the Lower Passaic Cooperating Parties Group ("the CPG") and are parties to a May 2007 AOC with the EPA to perform a RI/FS of the 17-mile stretch known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area ("the River"). The Company's potential liability stems from former operations at Lodi and Belleville, New Jersey. In June 2007, the EPA issued a draft Focused Feasibility Study ("FFS") that considered interim remedial options for the lower 8-miles of the river, in addition to a "no action" option. As an interim step related to the 2007 AOC, the CPG voluntarily entered into an AOC on June 18, 2012 with the EPA for remediation actions focused solely at mile 10.9 of the River. The Company's estimated costs related to the RI/FS and focused remediation at mile 10.9, based on interim allocations, are immaterial and have been accrued.
On April 11, 2014, the EPA issued its revised FFS, with remedial alternatives to address cleanup of the lower 8-mile stretch of the River, which also included a "no action" option. The EPA estimates the cost for the alternatives range from $365.0 million to $3.2 billion. The EPA's preferred approach would involve bank-to-bank dredging of the lower 8-mile stretch of the River and installing an engineered cap at a discounted, estimated cost of $1.7 billion. Based on the issuance of the EPA's revised FFS, the Company recorded a $23.1 million accrual in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 representing the Company's estimate of its allocable share of the joint and several remediation liability resulting from this matter. Despite the issuance of the revised FFS, there are many uncertainties associated with the final agreed upon remediation and the Company's allocable share of the remediation. Given those uncertainties, the amounts accrued may not be indicative of the amounts for which the Company is ultimately responsible and will be refined as events in the remediation process occur.
Products Liability Litigation
Beginning with lawsuits brought in July 1976, the Company is also named as a defendant in personal injury lawsuits based on alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials. A majority of the cases involve product liability claims based principally on allegations of past distribution of products containing asbestos. A limited number of the cases allege premises liability based on claims that individuals were exposed to asbestos while on the Company's property. Each case typically names dozens of corporate defendants in addition to the Company. The complaints generally seek monetary damages for personal injury or bodily injury resulting from alleged exposure to products containing asbestos. The Company's involvement in asbestos cases has been limited because it did not mine or produce asbestos. Furthermore, in the Company's experience, a large percentage of these claims have never been substantiated and have been dismissed by the courts. The Company has not suffered an adverse verdict in a trial court proceeding related to asbestos claims and intends to continue to defend these lawsuits. When appropriate, the Company settles claims; however, amounts paid to settle and defend all asbestos claims have been immaterial. As of December 26, 2014, there were approximately 12,000 asbestos-related cases pending against the Company.
The Company estimates pending asbestos claims and claims that were incurred but not reported and related insurance recoveries, which are recorded on a gross basis in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company's estimate of its liability for pending and future claims is based on claims experience over the past five years and covers claims either currently filed or expected to be filed over the next seven years. The Company believes that it has adequate amounts recorded related to these matters. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these asbestos-related proceedings, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that the ultimate resolution of all known and anticipated future claims, after taking into account amounts already accrued, along with recoveries from insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company has recorded asset retirement obligations for the estimated future costs primarily associated with legal obligations to decommission facilities within the Global Medical Imaging segment, including the facilities located in Petten, the Netherlands and Maryland Heights, Missouri. Substantially all of these obligations are included in other liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following table provides a summary of the changes in the Company's asset retirement obligations:
|
| | | |
Balance at September 26, 2014 | $ | 40.8 |
|
Accretion expense | 0.5 |
|
Currency translation | (1.3 | ) |
Balance at December 26, 2014 | $ | 40.0 |
|
The Company believes, given the information currently available, that any potential payment of such estimated amounts will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Industrial Revenue Bonds
The Company exchanged title to $27.4 million of its plant assets in return for an equal amount of Industrial Revenue Bonds ("IRB") issued by Saint Louis County. The Company also simultaneously leased such assets back from Saint Louis County under a capital lease expiring December 2025, the terms of which provide it with the right of offset against the IRBs. The lease also provides an option for the Company to repurchase the assets at the end of the lease for nominal consideration. These transactions collectively result in a ten-year property tax abatement from the date the property is placed in service. Due to the right of offset, the capital lease obligation and IRB asset are recorded net in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects that the right of offset will be applied to payments required under these arrangements.
Interest Bearing Deferred Tax Obligation
As part of the integration of Questcor, the Company entered into an internal installment sale transaction related to certain Acthar intangible assets during the three months ended December 26, 2014. The installment sale transaction resulted in a taxable gain. In accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 453 the gain is considered taxable in the period in which installment payments are received. As of December 26, 2014, the Company had an aggregate $1,551.0 million of interest bearing U.S. deferred tax liabilities associated with outstanding installment notes. The U.S. Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") charges interest based on the deferred tax liability outstanding as of the end of a company's fiscal year, regardless of amounts outstanding during the fiscal year. During the three months ended December 26, 2014 the Company accrued Section 453 interest of $2.8 million, which is included within interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
Tax Matters
The income tax returns of the Company and its subsidiaries are periodically examined by various tax authorities. The resolution of these matters is subject to the conditions set forth in the tax matters agreement entered into between the Company and Covidien ("the Tax Matters Agreement"). Covidien has the right to administer, control and settle all U.S. income tax audits for periods prior to the Separation. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of these matters, the Company believes, given the information currently available, that established liabilities are reasonable and that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
With respect to certain tax returns filed by predecessor affiliates of the Company and Covidien, the IRS has concluded its field examination for the years 1997 through 2007. The Company considers such uncertain tax positions associated with these years as having been effectively settled. All but one of the matters associated with these audits have been resolved. The unresolved proposed adjustment asserts that substantially all of the predecessor affiliates' intercompany debt originating during the years 1997 through 2000 should not be treated as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and has disallowed interest deductions related to the intercompany debt and certain tax attribute adjustments recognized on the U.S. income tax returns. This matter is subject to the Company's $200.0 million liability limitation for periods prior to September 29, 2012, as prescribed in the Tax Matters Agreement. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcome of this matter, the Company believes, given the information available to it today, that it will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Prior to the Separation, the Company provided and accrued for an indemnification, to the purchaser of a certain legal entity, to indemnify them for tax obligations should the tax basis of certain assets not be recognized. As of December 26, 2014, the Company had accrued $22.5 million associated with this indemnification. The Company believes that, under the terms of the agreement between the parties, this indemnification obligation may expire shortly. Should this occur, the Company will eliminate the liability and recognize a benefit within the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income.
Acquisition-Related Litigation
Several purported class action lawsuits have been filed in February 2014 and March 2014 by purported holders of Cadence common stock in connection with the Cadence Acquisition, including in the Delaware Court of Chancery (consolidated under the caption In re Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Stockholders Litigation), and in California State Court, San Diego County (Denny v. Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Militello v. Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., and Schuon v. Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al.). The actions bring claims against, and generally allege that, the board of directors of Cadence breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Cadence Acquisition by, among other things, failing to maximize shareholder value, and the Delaware and Schuon actions further allege that Cadence omitted to disclose allegedly material information in its Schedule 14D-9. The lawsuits also allege, among other things, that the Company aided and abetted the purported breaches of fiduciary duty. The lawsuits seek various forms of relief, including but not limited to, rescission of the transaction, damages and attorneys' fees and costs. On March 7, 2014, following expedited discovery, the parties in the consolidated Delaware action entered into a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU"), which sets forth the parties' agreement in principle for a settlement of those actions. The settlement contemplated by the MOU will include, among other things, a release of all claims relating to the Cadence Acquisition as set forth in the MOU. The settlement is subject to a number of conditions, including, among other things, final court approval following notice to the class. There have been no substantive proceedings in any of the California actions. On July 29, 2014, the Militello case was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice. On September 8, 2014, the Denny case was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice. While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcomes of these matters, the Company believes, given the information available to it today, that they will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Since the announcement of the merger with Questcor on April 7, 2014, several putative class actions have been filed by purported holders of Questcor common stock in connection with the Questcor Acquisition (Hansen v. Thompson, et al., Heng v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Buck v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Ellerbeck v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Yokem v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Richter v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Tramantano v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Crippen v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., Patel v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al., and Postow v. Questcor Pharmaceuticals, Inc., et al.). The actions were consolidated on June 3, 2014. The consolidated complaint names as defendants, and generally alleges that, the directors of Questcor breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the acquisition by, among other things, agreeing to sell Questcor for inadequate consideration and pursuant to an inadequate process. The consolidated complaint also alleges that the Questcor directors breached their fiduciary duties by failing to disclose purportedly material information to shareholders in connection with the merger. The consolidated complaint also alleges, among other things, that the Company aided and abetted the purported breaches of fiduciary duty. The lawsuits seek various forms of relief, including but not limited to, rescission of the transaction, damages and attorneys' fees and costs.
On July 29, 2014, the defendants reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiffs in the consolidated actions, and that agreement is reflected in a MOU. In connection with the settlement contemplated by the MOU, Questcor agreed to make certain additional disclosures related to the proposed transaction with the Company, which are contained in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 30, 2014. Additionally, as part of the settlement and pursuant to the MOU, the Company agreed to forbear from exercising certain rights under the merger agreement with Questcor, as follows: the four business day period referenced in Section 5.3(e) of the merger agreement with Questcor was reduced to three business days. The MOU contemplated that the parties will enter into a stipulation of settlement.
The stipulation of settlement will be subject to customary conditions, including court approval. In the event that the parties enter into a stipulation of settlement, a hearing will be scheduled at which the California Superior Court will consider the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the settlement. If the settlement is finally approved by the court, it will resolve and release all claims in all actions that were or could have been brought challenging any aspect of the transaction, the merger agreement with Questcor and any disclosures made in connection therewith, including the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Questcor Acquisition, pursuant to terms that will be disclosed to shareholders prior to final approval of the settlement. In addition, in connection with the settlement, the parties contemplate that they shall negotiate in good faith regarding the amount of attorney's fees and expense that shall be paid to plaintiffs' counsel in connection with the actions. There can be no assurance that the parties will ultimately enter into a stipulation of settlement or that the California Superior Court will approve the settlement even if the parties were to enter into such stipulation. In such event, the proposed settlement as contemplated by the MOU may be terminated.
While it is not possible at this time to determine with certainty the ultimate outcomes of these matters, the Company believes, given the information available to it today, that they will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Other Matters
The Company is a defendant in a number of other pending legal proceedings relating to present and former operations, acquisitions and dispositions. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

17. | Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements |
Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs used in measuring fair value. The levels within the hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1— observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2— significant other observable inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3— significant unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions.
The following tables provide a summary of the significant assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis at the end of each period:

Debt and equity securities held in rabbi trusts. Debt securities held in the rabbi trusts primarily consist of U.S. government and agency securities and corporate bonds. When quoted prices are available in an active market, the investments are classified as level 1. When quoted market prices for a security are not available in an active market, they are classified as level 2. Equity securities held in the rabbi trusts primarily consist of U.S. common stocks, which are valued using quoted market prices reported on nationally recognized securities exchanges.
Foreign exchange forward and option contracts. Foreign currency option and forward contracts are used to economically manage the foreign exchange exposures of operations outside the U.S. Quoted prices are available in an active market; as such, these derivatives are classified as level 1.
Deferred compensation liabilities. The Company maintains a non-qualified deferred compensation plan in the U.S., which permits eligible employees of the Company to defer a portion of their compensation. A recordkeeping account is set up for each participant and the participant chooses from a variety of funds for the deemed investment of their accounts. The recordkeeping accounts generally correspond to the funds offered in the Company's U.S. tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan and the account balance fluctuates with the investment returns on those funds.
Goodwill. The Company performs an annual goodwill impairment assessment using an income approach based on the present value of future cash flows.
Contingent consideration and acquired contingent liabilities. In October 2012, the Company recorded contingent consideration of $6.9 million upon the acquisition of CNS Therapeutics. This contingent consideration, which could potentially total a maximum of $9.0 million, is primarily based on whether the FDA approves another concentration of GABLOFEN® (baclofen injection) on or before December 31, 2016. The fair value of the contingent payments was measured based on the probability-weighted present value of the consideration expected to be transferred using a discount rate of 1.0%. At December 26, 2014, the fair value of this contingent consideration was $7.1 million.
In August 2014, the Company recorded acquired contingent liabilities of $195.4 million from the Questcor Acquisition. The contingent liabilities relate to Questcor's contingent obligations associated with their acquisition of an exclusive, perpetual and irrevocable license to develop, market, manufacture, distribute, sell and commercialize Synacthen and Synacthen Depot from Novartis and their acquisition of BioVectra. The fair value of these contingent consideration obligations at December 26, 2014 was $195.8 million.
Under the terms of the license agreement with Novartis, the Company is obligated to make a $25.0 million payment in each of fiscal 2015 and 2016, make annual payments of $25.0 million subsequent to fiscal 2016 until such time that the Company obtains FDA approval of Synacthen and makes an additional $25.0 million payment. If FDA approval is obtained, the Company will pay an annual royalty to Novartis based on a percentage of new sales of the products in the U.S. market. As of December 26, 2014, the total remaining payments under the license agreement shall not exceed $215.0 million. The terms of the license agreement do allow the Company to terminate the license agreement at its discretion following the fiscal 2018 payment or upon the occurrence of certain events following the fiscal 2016 payment. The Company measured the fair value of the contingent payments based on a probability-weighted present value of the consideration expected to be transferred using a discount rate of 4.7%. Under the terms of the license agreement, the Company was required to maintain deposits equal to the fiscal 2015 and 2016 annual $25.0 million payments, which are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Based on the terms of the acquisition agreement with the former shareholders of BioVectra, the Company may be obligated to pay, as of December 26, 2014, additional cash consideration of $45.0 million CAD based on BioVectra's financial results from January 2013 through a portion of fiscal 2016. The Company measured the fair value of the contingent payments based on a probability-weighted present value of the consideration expected to be transferred using a discount rate of 1.3%.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the majority of other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term nature. The Company classifies cash on hand and deposits in banks, including commercial paper, money market accounts and other investments it may hold from time to time, with an original maturity to the Company of three months or less, as cash and cash equivalents (level 1). The fair value of restricted cash is equivalent to its carrying value of $69.4 million and $69.8 million as of December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014, respectively (level 1), which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company's life insurance contracts are carried at cash surrender value, which is based on the present value of future cash flows under the terms of the contracts (level 3). Significant assumptions used in determining the cash surrender value include the amount and timing of future cash flows, interest rates and mortality charges. The fair value of these contracts approximates the carrying value of $68.7 million and $69.0 million at December 26, 2014 and September 26, 2014, respectively. These contracts are included in other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The carrying value of the Company's Receivable Securitization approximates fair value due to its short term nature. The carrying values of the 2.85% and 4.00% term loans approximate the fair values of these instruments, as calculated using the discounted exit price for each instrument, and are therefore classified as level 3. Since the quoted market prices for the Company's Term Loan, New Term Loan and 8.00% and 9.50% debentures are not available in an active market, they are classified as level 2 for purposes of developing an estimate of fair value. The Company's 3.50%, 4.75% and 5.75% notes are classified as level 1, as quoted prices are available in an active market for these notes. The following table presents the carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company's long-term debt, excluding capital leases, as of the end of each period:

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of accounts receivable. The Company does not typically require collateral from customers. A portion of the Company's accounts receivable outside the U.S. includes 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' national economies.
The following table shows net sales attributable to distributors that accounted for 10% or more of the Company's total net sales:

Molybdenum-99 ("Mo-99") is a key raw material in the Company's Ultra-Technekow™ DTE technetium generators that are sold by its Global Medical Imaging segment. There are only eight suppliers of this raw material worldwide. The Company has agreements to obtain Mo-99 from three nuclear research reactors and relies predominantly upon two of these reactors for its Mo-99 supply. Accordingly, a disruption in the commercial supply or a significant increase in the cost of this material from these sources could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, the integration of Questcor was substantially completed. With this, and given the increased significance of the Specialty Brands business to the Company's results and the expected long-term growth of this business as compared to the Specialty Generics business, the Company has changed its reportable segments. The Company now presents the Specialty Brands and Specialty Generics businesses as reportable segments, along with the continued presentation of Global Medical Imaging as a reportable segment. The Company historically presented the Specialty Brands and Specialty Generics businesses within the Specialty Pharmaceuticals segment. Prior year amounts have been recast to conform to current presentation. The three reportable segments are further described below:
| |
• | Specialty Brands produces and markets branded pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals; |
| |
• | Specialty Generics produces specialty generic pharmaceuticals and API consisting of biologics, medicinal opioids, synthetic controlled substances, acetaminophen and other active ingredients; and |
| |
• | Global Medical Imaging manufactures and markets CMDS and radiopharmaceuticals (nuclear medicine). |
