Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] |
Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives | Restructuring Charges and Other Costs Associated with Acquisitions and Cost-Reduction/Productivity Initiatives We incur significant costs in connection with acquiring, integrating and restructuring businesses and in connection with our global cost-reduction/productivity initiatives. For example:
• | In connection with acquisition activity, we typically incur costs associated with executing the transactions, integrating the acquired operations (which may include expenditures for consulting and the integration of systems and processes), and restructuring the combined company (which may include charges related to employees, assets and activities that will not continue in the combined company); and
• | In connection with our cost-reduction/productivity initiatives, we typically incur costs and charges associated with site closings and other facility rationalization actions, workforce reductions and the expansion of shared services, including the development of global systems.
All of our businesses and functions may be impacted by these actions, including sales and marketing, manufacturing and R&D, as well as groups such as information technology, shared services and corporate operations. Transforming to a More Focused Company Program With the formation of the GSK Consumer Healthcare joint venture and the anticipated combination of Upjohn, our global, primarily off-patent branded and generics business, with Mylan, Pfizer is transforming itself into a more focused, global leader in science-based innovative medicines. As a result, we began in the fourth quarter of 2019, to identify and undertake efforts to ensure our cost base aligns appropriately with our Biopharmaceutical revenue base as a result of both the completed GSK Consumer Healthcare and expected Upjohn transactions. While certain direct costs have transferred or will transfer to the GSK Consumer Healthcare joint venture and to the Upjohn entities, there are indirect costs which are not expected to transfer. In addition, we are taking steps to restructure our organizations to appropriately support and drive the purpose of the three core functions of our focused innovative medicines business: R&D, Manufacturing and Commercial. We expect the costs associated with this multi-year program to be incurred from 2020 through 2022 and to total approximately $1.2 billion on a pre-tax basis, with substantially all of the costs to be cash expenditures. Actions may include, among others, changes in location of certain activities, expanded use and co-location of centers of excellence and shared services, and increased use of digital technologies. The associated actions and the specific costs will primarily include severance and benefit plan impacts, exit costs as well as associated implementation costs. Also as part of this program, in connection with the legacy cost reduction initiatives, primarily related to manufacturing activities, we expect to incur costs of approximately $400 million, with approximately 20% of the costs to be non-cash. The costs associated with this effort are expected to be incurred from 2020 through 2022, and will primarily include implementation costs, product transfer costs, exit costs, as well as accelerated depreciation. From the start of this program in the fourth quarter of 2019 through June 28, 2020, we incurred approximately $549 million associated with this program. Current-Period Key Activities For the first six months of 2020, we incurred costs of $566 million composed primarily of the Transforming to a More Focused Company program. For the first six months of 2019, we incurred costs of $32 million composed of $180 million associated with the 2017-2019 and Organizing for Growth initiatives, $51 million associated with the integration of Hospira, and income of $199 million primarily due to the reversal of certain accruals upon the effective favorable settlement of an IRS audit for multiple tax years and other acquisition-related initiatives.
The following table provides the components of costs associated with acquisitions and cost-reduction/productivity initiatives:
