Baxter International Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Baxter International Inc. and its subsidiaries (we or our) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (2019 Annual Report).
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. All such adjustments, unless otherwise noted herein, are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period condensed consolidated statements to the current period presentation.
Risks and Uncertainties Related to COVID-19
Our global operations expose us to risks associated with public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, such as the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). COVID-19 has had, and we expect will continue to have, an adverse impact on our operations, supply chains and distribution systems and increase our expenses, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that we, other businesses and governments are taking. These measures have led to unprecedented restrictions on, disruptions in, and other related impacts on businesses and personal activities. In addition to travel restrictions put in place in early 2020, governments have closed borders, imposed prolonged quarantines and may continue those measures or implement other restrictions and requirements in light of the continuing spread of the pandemic and concern of a “second wave” of outbreaks. We expect that these evolving restrictions and requirements, as well as the corresponding need to adapt to new methods of conducting business remotely, will continue to have an adverse effect on our business.
New Accounting Standards
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
As of January 1, 2020, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, which requires the measurement of expected lifetime credit losses, rather than incurred losses, for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable forecasts. The main objective of this ASU is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. We adopted this ASU using the modified retrospective approach. The impact of the adoption of this ASU was an increase to our allowance for doubtful accounts and a decrease to retained earnings of $4 million.
8

The following table is a summary of the changes in our allowance for doubtful accounts for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020:

(in millions) | Three months ended June 30, 2020 | Six months ended June 30, 2020
Balance at beginning of period | $ | 114 |  | $ | 112 |
Adoption of new accounting standard | — |  | 4 |
Charged to costs and expenses | 5 |  | 12 |
Write-offs | (1) |  | (1) |
Currency translation adjustments | 2 |  | (7) |

ASU 2016-13 also requires disclosure by vintage year of origination for net investment in leases. Our net investment in sales-type leases was $130 million as of June 30, 2020, of which $16 million originated in 2016 and prior, $16 million in 2017, $46 million in 2018, $36 million in 2019 and $16 million in 2020.
As of January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. Our policies for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement were not impacted by this ASU. However, we have historically classified those capitalized costs within property, plant and equipment, net on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and as capital expenditures on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. Under the new ASU, those capitalized costs are presented as other non-current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets and within operating cash flows on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. We adopted this ASU on a prospective basis and capitalized $12 million and $20 million, respectively, of implementation costs related to hosting arrangements that are service contracts during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.
2. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
We have restated herein our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. We have also restated impacted amounts within the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements, as applicable. The restatement of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was previously reported in our 2019 Annual Report.
Restatement Background
On October 24, 2019, we reported that we had commenced an internal investigation into certain intra-company transactions that impacted our previously reported non-operating foreign exchange gains and losses. Our internal investigation, as it pertains to the evaluation of related financial statement impacts, is complete.
We previously had applied a longstanding convention for the initial measurement of foreign currency transactions and the subsequent remeasurement of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities (collectively, our historical exchange rate convention) that was not consistent with U.S. GAAP. U.S. GAAP requires that foreign currency transactions be initially measured and recorded in an entity’s functional currency using the exchange rate on the date of the transaction and it requires that foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities be remeasured at the end of each reporting period using the exchange rate at that date. Under our historical exchange rate convention, all foreign currency transactions in a given month were initially measured using exchange rates from a specified date near the middle of the previous month. Additionally, all foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities were subsequently remeasured at the end of each month using exchange rates from a specified date near the middle of the current month. Beginning years after the adoption of our historical exchange rate convention, certain intra-company transactions were undertaken, after the related exchange rates were already known, solely for the purpose of generating non-operating foreign exchange gains or avoiding foreign exchange losses.
We identified misstatements relating to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and foreign currency derivative contracts that caused our Other income (expense), net and Income before income taxes to be overstated by $32 million and $36 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Our quantification of those misstatements to our previously reported foreign exchange gains and losses was not limited to intra-company transactions undertaken for the purpose of generating foreign exchange gains or avoiding foreign
9

exchange losses after the related exchange rates were already known. Rather, we identified every legal entity within our consolidated group that had foreign exchange gains or losses above an immaterial threshold and, for those entities, we remeasured all foreign exchange gains and losses from foreign currency denominated cash balances and intra-company loan receivables and payables using the exchange rates required by U.S. GAAP. For those entities, we also quantified misstatements to our previously reported gains and losses on foreign currency derivative contracts, which had used foreign exchange rates determined under our historical exchange rate convention as inputs to the fair value measurements of those contracts. Our quantification of misstatements to the condensed consolidated financial statements did not include foreign currency gains or losses from short-term third-party and intra-company trade receivables and trade payables denominated in foreign currencies. We determined that any potential misstatements relating to such balances that arise in the ordinary course of business and are ultimately settled for cash within a short period of time, generally thirty to sixty days, would not be material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In order to correct our previously issued financial statements, we have restated herein our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. In addition to the misstatements described above relating to foreign exchange gains and losses, we corrected additional misstatements that were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements. Those other immaterial misstatements relate to equipment leased to customers under operating leases, classification of foreign currency gains and losses on cash balances and intra-company loan receivables and payables in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, translation of the financial position and results of operations of our foreign operations into U.S. dollars, other miscellaneous adjustments, and the income tax effects of those items.
We believe that the use of our historical exchange rate convention to generate non-operating foreign exchange gains and avoid losses had occurred for at least ten years. The cumulative impact of misstatements related to non-operating foreign exchange gains and losses that we corrected for periods earlier than 2019, as well as the cumulative impact of correcting other immaterial misstatements relating to those earlier periods, have been recorded as a reduction to our opening retained earnings as of January 1, 2019.
The categories of misstatements and their impact on our previously issued condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are described in more detail below.
Description of Misstatements
Misstatements of Foreign Exchange Gains and Losses
(a) Foreign Currency Denominated Monetary Assets and Liabilities
As discussed above, we recorded adjustments to correct foreign exchange gains and losses on monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency to reflect the gains and losses resulting from application of the exchange rates required by U.S. GAAP. The impacts of the foreign currency gain or loss misstatements are discussed in restatement reference (a) throughout this note.
(b) Foreign Currency Derivative Contracts
As discussed above, we recorded adjustments to correct gains and losses on foreign currency derivative contracts by using current exchange rates at the applicable measurement dates as inputs to the related fair value measurements. The impacts of the foreign currency derivative contract gain or loss misstatements are discussed in restatement reference (b) throughout this note.
Additional Misstatements
(c) Equipment Leased to Customers under Operating Leases
Our manufacturing subsidiaries often sell products to commercial subsidiaries within our consolidated group which then sell or lease those products to third-party customers. Under U.S. GAAP, intra-company sales, intra-company cost of sales, and any step-ups in the carrying amount of inventory from intra-company transactions are eliminated in consolidation. If we subsequently sell the products to a third-party customer, the related intra-company profit previously eliminated in consolidation is recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income. For transactions in which we lease, rather than sell, our products to customers under operating lease arrangements, no
10

profit or loss should be recognized at inception of the arrangement and any intra-company profit previously eliminated in consolidation should be recognized as a reduction to the carrying amount of the related leased assets. Prior to the third quarter of 2019, our international operations incorrectly recognized intra-company profit previously eliminated in consolidation as a reduction of cost of sales, rather than as a reduction of leased assets, at inception of operating lease arrangements. Accordingly, we have recorded adjustments to increase cost of sales and decrease property, plant, and equipment, net in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Those adjustments include corrections of depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation resulting from the decreases to the carrying amounts of the related leased equipment. The impacts of the operating lease misstatements are discussed in restatement reference (c) throughout this note.
(d) Classification of Foreign Currency Gains and Losses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
We previously included foreign exchange gains and losses related to intra-company receivables and payables and cash balances within our cash flows from operations. In the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, foreign exchange gains and losses, as restated, related to intra-company receivables and payables and cash balances are presented as reconciling items between income from continuing operations and cash flows from operations. The impacts of those misclassifications on our operating cash flows are discussed in restatement reference (d) throughout this note.
(e) Translation of the Financial Position and Results of Operations of our Foreign Operations into U.S. Dollars
U.S. GAAP specifies that the income statement of a foreign operation should be translated into the reporting currency using the exchange rates on the dates the income or expense was recognized and indicates that the use of weighted-average exchange rates during the period is generally appropriate. Similar to our convention for the initial measurement of foreign currency transactions, we historically translated the results of operations of our foreign operations for a given month into U.S. dollars using exchange rates from a specified date near the middle of the previous month. Accordingly, we have recorded adjustments to translate the income statements of our foreign operations into U.S. dollars using the applicable average foreign exchange rates for each month.
U.S. GAAP specifies that the assets and liabilities of foreign operations be translated into the reporting currency at the end of each reporting period using the exchange rate at that date. Similar to our convention for the subsequent remeasurement of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, our financial reporting systems were previously configured to translate assets and liabilities at the end of each month using exchange rates from a specified date near the middle of the current month. In recent years, we separately computed the impact of translating assets and liabilities at period-end exchange rates and adjusted our condensed consolidated balance sheets to reflect that difference. However, due to an incorrect input in those manual calculations as of December 31, 2018, the currency translation adjustments component of our other comprehensive income (loss) was misstated in our condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
The impacts of misstatements related to the translation of the financial position and results of operations of our foreign operations are discussed in restatement reference (e) throughout this note.
(f) Other Miscellaneous Adjustments
We recorded adjustments to correct other out-of-period items and previously uncorrected misstatements that were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our condensed consolidated financial statements. The impacts of the other miscellaneous adjustments are discussed in restatement reference (f) throughout this note.
Description of Restatement Tables
The following tables were previously presented in our 2019 Annual Report. See Note 19, Quarterly Financial Data (unaudited), to the consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Annual Report. Below, we have presented reconciliations from our prior periods as previously reported to the restated amounts for each of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The amounts as previously reported were derived from our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 filed on July 30, 2019.

The $35 million decrease to net income was driven by the items described above in the condensed consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2019 section.
(a) Foreign Currency Denominated Monetary Assets and Liabilities—The correction of these misstatements resulted in an increase to the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents of $33 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(b) Foreign Currency Derivative Contracts—The correction of these misstatements resulted in an increase to changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(c) Equipment Leased to Customers under Operating Leases—The correction of these misstatements resulted in decreases to depreciation and amortization of $7 million, deferred income taxes of $2 million and capital expenditures of $14 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(d) Classification of Foreign Currency Gains and Losses in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows—The corrections of these misstatements resulted in a decrease to the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents and an increase to other adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash from operating activities of $10 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(e) Translation of the Financial Position and Results of Operations of our Foreign Operations into U.S. Dollars—The corrections of these misstatements resulted in an increase in cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of the period of $6 million, at the end of the period of $9 million and the effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents of $3 million and a decrease to other changes in balance sheet items of $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
(f) Other miscellaneous adjustments—The correction of these misstatements resulted in decreases to depreciation and amortization of $1 million and deferred income taxes of $6 million and an increase to other changes in balance sheet items of $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER ARRANGEMENTS
Seprafilm Adhesion Barrier
In February 2020, we acquired the product rights to Seprafilm Adhesion Barrier (Seprafilm) from Sanofi. The transaction closed in February 2020 and we paid approximately $342 million in cash for the acquired assets. Seprafilm is indicated for use in patients undergoing abdominal or pelvic laparotomy as an adjunct intended to reduce the incidence, extent and severity of postoperative adhesions between the abdominal wall and the underlying viscera such as omentum, small bowel, bladder, and stomach, and between the uterus and surrounding structures such as tubes and ovaries, large bowel, and bladder. We concluded that the acquired assets met the definition of a business and accounted for the transaction as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting.
The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired as of the acquisition date:

(in millions) |
Assets acquired |
Inventories | $ | 18 |
Goodwill | 28 |
Other intangible assets | 296 |
Total assets acquired | $ | 342 |

In the three months ended June 30, 2020, we made immaterial measurement period adjustments to the acquired assets that had an insignificant impact on our results of operations. The valuation of the assets acquired are preliminary and measurement period adjustments may be recorded in the future as we finalize our fair value estimates. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the results of operations of the acquired business have been included in our condensed consolidated statement of income since the date the business was acquired. The acquisition contributed $23 million and $36 million, respectively, of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Net earnings from the acquisition were not significant during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and included acquisition and integration costs, primarily incremental cost of sales relating to inventory fair value step-ups, of $6 million and $15 million, respectively.
19

We allocated $286 million and $10 million of the total consideration to the Seprafilm developed product rights and customer relationships with useful lives of 10 and 7 years, respectively. The fair values of the intangible assets were determined using the income approach. The discount rates used to measure the developed product rights and customer relationship intangible assets were 14.8% and 11.0%, respectively. We consider the fair value of the intangible assets to be Level 3 measurements due to the significant estimates and assumptions we used in establishing the estimated fair values.
The goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes, includes the value of the overall strategic benefits provided to our product portfolio of hemostats and sealants and is included in the Americas and APAC segments.
Other Business Combinations
We completed other individually immaterial acquisitions in the six months ended June 30, 2020 for total consideration of $13 million in cash at closing plus aggregate future potential contingent consideration of up to $12 million with an acquisition date fair value of $4 million. The acquisitions primarily resulted in the recognition of goodwill and other intangible assets.
We have not presented pro forma financial information for any of our acquisitions because their results are not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Other Business Development Activities
In January 2020, we acquired the U.S. rights to an additional product for $60 million. The purchase price was capitalized as a developed-technology intangible asset in the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 11 years.
In the six months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into distribution license arrangements for multiple products that have not yet obtained regulatory approval for upfront cash payments of $22 million. The cash paid was treated as research and development (R&D) expenses on our condensed consolidated statement of income. We could make additional payments of up to $44 million upon the achievement of certain development, regulatory or commercial milestones.

Right-of-use finance lease assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were $7 million. As of June 30, 2020, we have entered into lease agreements with aggregate future lease payments of approximately $45 million for facilities that have not yet commenced.
Purchases of property, plant and equipment included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $42 million and $49 million, respectively.

Intangible asset amortization expense was $56 million and $45 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $108 million and $88 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
In the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, we recognized impairment charges of $17 million and $31 million, respectively, related to developed-technology intangible assets due to a decline in market expectations for the related products. The fair value of the intangible assets was measured using a discounted cash flow approach and the charges are classified within cost of sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. We consider the fair value of the assets to be a Level 3 measurements due to the significant estimates and assumptions we used in establishing the estimated fair values.
6. FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Debt Issuance
In March 2020, we issued $750 million of 3.75% senior notes due in October 2025 and $500 million of 3.95% senior notes due in April 2030 (collectively, the senior notes). Pursuant to a registration rights agreement (the Registration Rights Agreement) with the initial purchasers of the senior notes, we agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement with respect to a registered offer to exchange the senior notes for new notes with terms substantially identical in all material respects to the senior notes and to have such registration statement declared effective under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. If we fail to have such registration statement declared effective by September 17, 2021 (a registration default), the annual interest rate on the senior notes would increase by 0.25% for the 90-day period immediately following such registration default and by an additional 0.25% thereafter. The maximum additional interest rate is 0.50% per annum and if a registration default is corrected, the senior notes would revert to the original interest rates. The payment of additional interest is the sole remedy for the holders of the senior notes in the event of a registration default.
Credit Facilities
As of June 30, 2020, there were no borrowings outstanding under our U.S. dollar or Euro-denominated credit facilities. As of December 31, 2019, we had €200 million ($224 million) outstanding under our Euro-denominated credit facility at a 0.91% interest rate and no borrowings outstanding under our U.S. dollar-denominated credit facility.
7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are involved in product liability, patent, commercial, and other legal matters that arise in the normal course of our business. We record a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a probable loss is a range, and no amount within the range is a better estimate, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. If a loss is not probable or a probable loss cannot be reasonably estimated, no liability is recorded. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our total recorded reserves with respect to legal and environmental matters were $45 million and $56 million, respectively, and there were no related receivables.
We have established reserves for certain of the matters discussed below. We are not able to estimate the amount or range of any loss for certain contingencies for which there is no reserve or additional loss for matters already reserved. While our liability in connection with these claims cannot be estimated and the resolution thereof in any reporting period could have a significant impact on our results of operations and cash flows for that period, the outcome of these legal proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. While we believe that we have valid defenses in the matters set forth below, litigation is inherently uncertain, excessive verdicts do occur, and we may incur material judgments or enter into material settlements of claims.
In addition to the matters described below, we remain subject to the risk of future administrative and legal actions. With respect to governmental and regulatory matters, these actions may lead to product recalls, injunctions, and other restrictions on our operations and monetary sanctions, including significant civil or criminal penalties. With respect to intellectual property, we may be exposed to significant litigation concerning the scope of our and others’ rights. Such litigation could result in a loss of patent protection or the ability to market products, which could lead to a significant loss of sales, or otherwise materially affect future results of operations.
Environmental
We are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) for environmental clean-up costs at six Superfund sites. Under the U.S. Superfund statute and many state laws, generators of hazardous waste sent to a disposal or recycling
22

site are liable for site cleanup if contaminants from that property later leak into the environment. The laws generally provide that a PRP may be held jointly and severally liable for the costs of investigating and remediating the site. Separate from the Superfund cases noted above, we are involved in an ongoing voluntary environmental remediation associated with historic operations at our Irvine, California, United States facility. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our environmental reserves, which are measured on an undiscounted basis, were $18 million. After considering these reserves, the outcome of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
General Litigation
In November 2016, a putative antitrust class action complaint seeking monetary and injunctive relief was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The complaint alleges a conspiracy among manufacturers of IV solutions to restrict output and affect pricing in connection with a shortage of such solutions. Similar parallel actions subsequently were filed. In January 2017, a single consolidated complaint covering these matters was filed in the Northern District of Illinois. We filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint in February 2017. The court granted our motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint without prejudice in July 2018. The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, which we moved to dismiss on November 9, 2018. The court granted our motion to dismiss the amended complaint with prejudice on April 3, 2020. The plaintiffs did not file an appeal.
In April 2017, we became aware of a criminal investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Antitrust Division and a federal grand jury in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. We and an employee received subpoenas seeking production of documents and testimony regarding the manufacturing, selling, pricing and shortages of IV solutions and containers (including saline solutions and certain other injectable medicines sold by us) and communications with competitors regarding the same. On November 30, 2018, the DOJ notified us that it had closed the investigation. The New York Attorney General has also requested that we provide information regarding business practices in the IV saline industry. We have cooperated with the New York Attorney General.
In August 2019, we were named in an amended complaint filed by Fayette County, Georgia in the MDL In re: National Prescription Opiate Litigation pending in the U.S. District Court, Northern District of Ohio. The complaint alleges that multiple manufacturers and distributors of opiate products improperly marketed and diverted these products, which caused harm to Fayette County. The complaint is limited in its allegations as to Baxter and does not distinguish between injectable opiate products and orally administered opiates. We manufactured generic injectable opiate products in our facility in Cherry Hill, NJ, which we divested in 2011.
In November 2019, we and certain of our officers were named in a class action complaint captioned Ethan E. Silverman et al. v. Baxter International Inc. et al. that was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. The plaintiff, who allegedly purchased shares of our common stock during the specified class period, filed this putative class action on behalf of himself and shareholders who acquired Baxter common stock between February 21, 2019 and October 23, 2019. The plaintiff alleges that we and certain officers violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by making allegedly false and misleading statements and failing to disclose material facts relating to certain intra-company transactions undertaken for the purpose of generating foreign exchange gains or avoiding foreign exchange losses, as well as our internal controls over financial reporting. On January 29, 2020, the Court appointed Varma Mutual Pension Insurance Company and Louisiana Municipal Police Employees Retirement System as lead plaintiffs in the case. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on June 25, 2020 containing substantially the same allegations. In addition, we have received a stockholder request for inspection of our books and records in connection with the announcement made in our Form 8-K on October 24, 2019 that we had commenced an internal investigation into certain intra-company transactions that impacted our previously reported non-operating foreign exchange gains and losses. As initially disclosed on October 24, 2019, we also voluntarily advised the staff of the SEC of our internal investigation and we are continuing to cooperate with the staff of the SEC.
In March 2020, two lawsuits were filed against us in the Northern District of Illinois by plaintiffs alleging injuries as a result of exposure to ethylene oxide used in our manufacturing facility in Mountain Home, Arkansas to sterilize certain of our products. The plaintiffs seek damages, including compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount, and unspecified injunctive and declaratory relief.
23

Other
As previously disclosed, in 2008 we recalled our heparin sodium injection products in the United States. Following the recall, more than 1,000 lawsuits alleging that plaintiffs suffered various reactions to a heparin contaminant, in some cases resulting in fatalities, were filed. In January 2019, the last of these cases was settled. In the first half of 2019, following the resolution of an insurance dispute, we received cash proceeds of $35 million for our allocation of the insurance proceeds under a settlement and cost-sharing agreement related to the defense of the heparin product liability cases. We recognized a $33 million gain in connection with the resolution of the dispute with the insurer that is classified within other operating income, net on the condensed consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
8. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock Options Award Modification
In the first quarter of 2020, we modified the terms of stock option awards granted to 123 employees. Specifically, we extended the term for certain stock options that were scheduled to expire in the first quarter of 2020 as applicable employees were not permitted to exercise these awards due to our announcement in February 2020 that our previously issued financial statements should no longer be relied upon. The stock options were extended in order to allow impacted employees to exercise their stock option awards for a brief period once we became current with our SEC reporting obligations, which occurred in March 2020. As a result of the modifications, we recognized an additional $8 million of stock compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Cash Dividends
Cash dividends declared per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $0.245 and $0.465, respectively. Cash dividends declared per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were $0.22 and $0.41, respectively.
Stock Repurchase Programs
In July 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock. The Board of Directors increased this authority by an additional $1.5 billion in each of November 2016 and February 2018 and by an additional $2.0 billion in November 2018. During the first half of 2020, we did not repurchase any shares under this authority. During the first half of 2019, we repurchased 9.5 million shares pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans and otherwise. We had $897 million remaining available under the authorization as of June 30, 2020.
9. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income includes all changes in stockholders’ equity that do not arise from transactions with stockholders, and consists of net income, currency translation adjustments (CTA), certain gains and losses from pension and other postretirement employee benefit (OPEB) plans and gains and losses on cash flow hedges.

10. REVENUES
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in the contract. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Some of our contracts have multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation using our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. Our global payment terms are typically between 30-90 days.
The majority of our performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time. This includes sales of our broad portfolio of essential healthcare products across our geographic segments including acute and chronic dialysis therapies; sterile IV solutions; infusion systems and devices; parenteral nutrition therapies; inhaled anesthetics; generic injectable pharmaceuticals; and surgical hemostat and sealant products. For a majority of these sales, our performance obligation is satisfied upon delivery to the customer. Shipping and handling activities are considered to be fulfillment activities and are not considered to be a separate performance obligation.
To a lesser extent, in all of our segments, we enter into other types of contracts including contract manufacturing arrangements, equipment leases, and certain subscription software and licensing arrangements. We recognize revenue for these arrangements over time or at a point in time depending on our evaluation of when the customer obtains control of the promised goods or services. Revenue is recognized over time when we are creating or enhancing an asset that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced or our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed.
On June 30, 2020, we had $8.0 billion of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations related to executed contracts with an original duration of one year or more, which are primarily included in the Americas segment. Some contracts in the United States included in this amount contain index-dependent price increases, which are not known at this time. We expect to recognize approximately 15% of this amount as revenue over the remainder of 2020, 25% in each of 2021 and 2022, 15% in 2023 and 10% in each of 2024 and 2025.
Significant Judgments
Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price (transaction price), which includes estimates of variable consideration related to rebates, product returns, sales discounts and wholesaler chargebacks. These reserves are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales and are included in accounts receivable, net and accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Management's estimates take into consideration historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the contract using the expected value method. The amount of variable consideration included in the net sales price is limited to the amount for which it is probable that a significant reversal in revenue will not occur when the related uncertainty is resolved. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material.
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in the recognition of trade accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, contract assets and customer advances and deposits (contract liabilities) on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Net trade accounts receivable was $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
For contract manufacturing arrangements, revenue is primarily recognized throughout the production cycle, which typically lasts up to 90 days, resulting in the recognition of contract assets until the related services are completed and the customers are billed. Additionally, for arrangements containing a performance obligation to deliver software that can be used with medical devices, we recognize revenue upon delivery of the software, which results in the recognition of contract assets when customers are billed over time, generally over one to five years. For bundled contracts involving equipment delivered up-front and consumable medical products to be delivered over time, total contract revenue is allocated between the equipment and consumable medical products. In certain of those arrangements, a contract asset is created for the difference between the amount of equipment revenue recognized upon delivery and the amount of consideration initially receivable from the customer. In those arrangements, the
26

contract asset becomes a trade account receivable as consumable medical products are provided and billed, generally over one to seven years. Our contract asset balances totaled $138 million as of June 30, 2020, of which $30 million related to contract manufacturing services, $59 million related to software sales and $49 million related to bundled equipment and consumable medical products contracts. Our contract asset balances totaled $131 million as of December 31, 2019, of which $36 million related to contract manufacturing services, $43 million related to software sales and $52 million related to bundled equipment and consumable medical products contracts. Contract assets are presented within accounts receivable, net ($74 million and $63 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively) and other non-current assets ($64 million and $68 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Contract liabilities as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $58 million and $12 million, respectively, and were included in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities ($31 million as of June 30, 2020) and other non-current liabilities ($27 million and $12 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively) in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Lease Revenue
We lease medical equipment, such as renal dialysis equipment and infusion pumps, to customers, primarily in conjunction with arrangements to provide consumable medical products such as dialysis therapies, IV fluids and inhaled anesthetics. Certain of our equipment leases are classified as sales-type leases and the remainder are operating leases. The terms of the related contracts, including the proportion of fixed versus variable payments and any options to shorten or extend the lease term, vary by customer. We allocate revenue between equipment leases and medical products based on their standalone selling prices.
The components of lease revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were:

(in millions) | Three months ended June 30, 2020 | Six months ended June 30, 2020
Sales-type lease revenue | $ | 10 |  | $ | 16 |

11. BUSINESS OPTIMIZATION CHARGES
In recent years, we have undertaken actions to transform our cost structure and enhance operational efficiency. These efforts include restructuring the organization, optimizing the manufacturing footprint, R&D operations and supply chain network, employing disciplined cost management, and centralizing and streamlining certain support functions. From the commencement of our business optimization activities in the second half of 2015 through June 30, 2020, we have incurred cumulative pre-tax costs of $1.0 billion related to these actions. The costs consisted primarily of employee termination costs, implementation costs, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation. We currently expect to incur additional pre-tax costs of approximately $15 million through the completion of the initiatives that are currently underway. These costs will primarily include employee termination costs, implementation costs, and accelerated depreciation. We continue to pursue cost savings initiatives and, to the extent further cost savings opportunities are identified, we may incur additional restructuring charges and costs to implement business optimization programs in future periods.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded the following charges related to business optimization programs.

| Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
(in millions) | 2020 | 2019 |  | 2020 | 2019

For segment reporting purposes, business optimization charges are unallocated expenses.
28

Costs to implement business optimization programs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, consisted primarily of external consulting and transition costs, including employee compensation and related costs. The costs were generally included within cost of sales, SG&A expense and R&D expense.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, we recognized accelerated depreciation, primarily associated with facilities to be closed. The costs were recorded within cost of sales and SG&A expense.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we recorded the following restructuring charges.

13. INCOME TAXES
Our effective income tax rate was 14.5% and 4.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 13.0% and 8.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our effective income tax rate can differ from the 21% U.S. federal statutory rate due to a number of factors, including foreign rate differences, tax incentives, increases or decreases in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to favorable geographic earnings mix and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to the recognition of tax benefits associated with a favorable tax ruling and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
14. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The numerator for both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) is net income attributable to Baxter stockholders. The denominator for basic EPS is the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance share units (PSUs) is reflected in the denominator for diluted EPS using the treasury stock method.
The following table is a reconciliation of basic shares to diluted shares.

| Three months ended June 30, |  |  | Six months ended June 30, |
(in millions) | 2020 | 2019 |  | 2020 | 2019
Basic shares | 509 |  | 510 |  |  | 508 |  | 511 |
Effect of dilutive securities | 8 |  | 9 |  |  | 9 |  | 9 |
Diluted shares | 517 |  | 519 |  |  | 517 |  | 520 |

The effect of dilutive securities included unexercised stock options, unvested RSUs and contingently issuable shares related to granted PSUs. The computation of diluted EPS excluded 4 million and 3 million equity awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and 4 million equity awards each for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, because their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect on diluted EPS.

15. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
We operate on a global basis and are exposed to the risk that our earnings, cash flows and equity could be adversely impacted by fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates. Our hedging policy attempts to manage these risks to an acceptable level based on our judgment of the appropriate trade-off between risk, opportunity and costs.
We are primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to recognized assets and liabilities, forecasted transactions and net assets denominated in the Euro, British Pound, Chinese Yuan, Korean Won, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Japanese Yen, Colombian Peso, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso and Swedish Krona. We manage our foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows us to net exposures and take advantage of any natural offsets. In addition, we use derivative and nonderivative instruments to further reduce the net exposure to foreign exchange risk. Gains and losses on the hedging instruments offset losses and gains on the hedged transactions and reduce the earnings and equity volatility resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates. Financial market and currency volatility may limit our ability to cost-effectively hedge these exposures.
We are also exposed to the risk that our earnings and cash flows could be adversely impacted by fluctuations in interest rates. Our policy is to manage interest costs using a mix of fixed- and floating-rate debt that we believe is appropriate. To manage this mix in a cost-efficient manner, we periodically enter into interest rate swaps in which we agree to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon notional amount.
We do not hold any instruments for trading purposes and none of our outstanding derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features.
All derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and are classified as short-term or long-term based on the scheduled maturity of the instrument. We designate certain of our derivatives and foreign-currency denominated debt as hedging instruments in cash flow, fair value, or net investment hedges.
Cash Flow Hed g es
We may use options, including collars and purchased options, forwards and cross-currency swaps to hedge the foreign exchange risk to earnings relating to forecasted transactions and recognized assets and liabilities. We periodically use treasury rate locks to hedge the risk to earnings associated with movements in interest rates relating to anticipated issuances of debt.
For each derivative instrument that is designated and effective as a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCI and then recognized in earnings consistent with the underlying hedged item. Option premiums or net premiums paid are initially recorded as assets and reclassified to other comprehensive income (OCI) over the life of the option, and then recognized in earnings consistent with the underlying hedged item. Cash flow hedges are classified in cost of sales and interest expense, net, and are primarily related to forecasted third-party sales denominated in foreign currencies, forecasted intra-company sales denominated in foreign currencies, and anticipated issuances of debt, respectively.
The notional amounts of foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $618 million and $617 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The maximum term over which we have cash flow hedge contracts in place related to forecasted transactions at June 30, 2020 is 12 months for foreign exchange contracts. The total notional amounts of interest rate contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $550 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The interest rate contracts have maturity dates in 2022 and hedge the variability in future benchmark interest payments attributable to changes in interest rates on the forecasted issuance of fixed-rate debt.
Fair Value Hed g es
We periodically use interest rate swaps to convert a portion of our fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt. These instruments hedge our earnings from changes in the fair value of debt due to fluctuations in the designated benchmark interest rate. For each derivative instrument that is designated and effective as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is recognized immediately to earnings, and offsets changes in fair value attributable to a particular risk, such as changes in interest rates, of the hedged item, which are also recognized in earnings. Fair value
31

hedges are classified in interest expense, net, as they hedge the interest rate risk associated with certain of our fixed-rate debt.
There were no outstanding interest rate swap contracts designated as fair value hedges as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Net Investment Hed g es
In May 2017, we issued €600 million of senior notes due May 2025. In May 2019, we issued €750 million of senior notes due May 2024 and €750 million of senior notes due May 2029. We have designated these debt obligations as hedges of our net investment in our European operations and, as a result, mark to spot rate adjustments on the outstanding debt balances are recorded as a component of AOCI. As of June 30, 2020, we had an accumulated pre-tax unrealized translation loss in AOCI of $22 million related to the Euro-denominated senior notes.
In May 2019, we entered into forward contracts designated as net investment hedges to reduce exposure to changes in currency rates on €1.2 billion of our net investment in our European operations. Those hedges were entered into in advance of the issuance of our senior notes mentioned above, were settled in the second quarter of 2019 and resulted in an insignificant loss.
Dedesignations
If it is determined that a derivative or nonderivative hedging instrument is no longer highly effective as a hedge, we discontinue hedge accounting prospectively. Gains or losses relating to terminations of effective cash flow hedges generally continue to be deferred and are recognized consistent with the loss or income recognition of the underlying hedged items. However, if it is probable that the hedged forecasted transactions will not occur, any gains or losses would be immediately reclassified from AOCI to earnings.
There were no hedge dedesignations in the first six months of 2020 or 2019 resulting from changes in our assessment of the probability that the hedged forecasted transactions would occur.
If we terminate a fair value hedge, an amount equal to the cumulative fair value adjustment to the hedged item at the date of termination is amortized to earnings over the remaining term of the hedged item. There were no fair value hedges terminated during the first six months of 2020 or 2019.
If we remove a net investment hedge designation, any gains or losses recognized in AOCI are not reclassified to earnings until we sell, liquidate, or deconsolidate the foreign investments that were being hedged. In the second quarter of 2019, we dedesignated €1.2 billion of forward contracts designated as a net investment hedge of our European operations. There were no net investment hedges terminated during the first six months of 2020.
Undesignated Derivative Instruments
We use forward contracts to hedge earnings from the effects of foreign exchange relating to certain of our intra-company and third-party receivables and payables denominated in a foreign currency. These derivative instruments are generally not formally designated as hedges and the terms of these instruments generally do not exceed one month.
The total notional amount of undesignated derivative instruments was $822 million as of June 30, 2020 and $619 million as of December 31, 2019.

16. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following tables summarize our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

|  | Basis of fair value measurement |  |
(in millions) | Balance as of June 30, 2020 | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) | Significant other observable inputs (Level 2) | Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)

Contingent payments related to acquisitions | 39 |  | — |  | — |  | 39 |
Total | $ | 93 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 54 |  | $ | 39 |

As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, cash and cash equivalents of $4.1 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively, included money market and other short-term funds of approximately $2.6 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, which are considered Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
For assets that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held, without consideration of transaction costs. The majority of the derivatives entered into by us are valued using internal valuation techniques as no quoted market prices exist for such instruments. The principal techniques used to value these instruments are discounted cash flow and Black-Scholes
35

models. The key inputs, which are considered observable and vary depending on the type of derivative, include contractual terms, interest rate yield curves, foreign exchange rates and volatility.
Contingent payments related to acquisitions accounted for as business combinations, which consist of milestone payments and sales-based payments, are valued using discounted cash flow techniques. The fair value of milestone payments reflects management’s expectations of probability of payment, and increases as the probability of payment increases or the expected timing of payments is accelerated. The fair value of sales-based payments is based upon probability-weighted future revenue estimates, and increases as revenue estimates increase, probability weighting of higher revenue scenarios increases or the expected timing of payment is accelerated. The following table is a reconciliation of recurring fair value measurements that use significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), which consist of contingent payments related to acquisitions.

Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
In addition to the financial instruments that we are required to recognize at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, we have certain financial instruments that are recognized at amortized cost or some basis other than fair value. For these financial instruments, the following table provides the values recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the estimated fair values as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

| Book values |  |  | Fair values(a) |
(in millions) | 2020 | 2019 |  | 2020 | 2019
Liabilities |  |  |  |  |
Short-term debt | $ | 1 |  | $ | 226 |  |  | $ | 1 |  | $ | 226 |
Current maturities of long-term debt and finance lease obligations | 318 |  | 315 |  |  | 318 |  | 315 |
Long-term debt and finance lease obligations | 6,055 |  | 4,809 |  |  | 6,743 |  | 5,156 |

(a) These fair value amounts are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as they are estimated based on observable inputs.
The carrying value of short-term debt approximates its fair value due to the short-term maturities of the obligations. The estimated fair values of current and long-term debt were computed by multiplying price by the notional amount of the respective debt instruments. Price is calculated using the stated terms of the respective debt instrument and yield curves commensurate with our credit risk. The carrying values of other financial instruments, such as accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturities of most of those assets and liabilities.
Equity investments not measured at fair value are comprised of other equity investments without readily determinable fair values and were $81 million at June 30, 2020 and $73 million at December 31, 2019. Those investments are included in Other non-current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
17. SEGMENT INFORMATION
We manage our business based on three geographical segments: Americas (North and South America), EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and APAC (Asia Pacific). Our segments provide a broad portfolio of essential healthcare products, including acute and chronic dialysis therapies; sterile IV solutions; infusion systems and devices; parenteral nutrition therapies; inhaled anesthetics; generic injectable pharmaceuticals; and surgical hemostat and sealant products.
We use operating income on a segment basis to make resource allocation decisions and assess the ongoing performance of our business segments. Intersegment sales are eliminated in consolidation.
36

Certain items are maintained at Corporate and are not allocated to a segment. They primarily include the majority of foreign currency hedging activities, corporate headquarters costs, certain R&D costs, certain GBU support costs, stock compensation expense, certain employee benefit plan costs, and certain gains, losses, and other charges (such as business optimization, acquisition and integration costs, intangible asset amortization and asset impairments). Our chief operating decision maker does not receive any asset information by operating segment and, accordingly, we do not report asset information by operating segment.
Financial information for our segments is as follows.

Intangible asset amortization expense is identified as a special item to facilitate an evaluation of current and past operating performance and is consistent with how management and our Board of Directors assess performance. Additional special items are identified above because they are highly variable, difficult to predict and of a size that may substantially impact our reported results of operations for the period. Management believes that providing the separate impact of those items may provide a more complete understanding and facilitate a fuller analysis of our results of operations, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another.
1 In 2020 and 2019, our results included charges of $17 million and $31 million for asset impairments related to developed-technology intangible assets. Refer to Note 5 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding these asset impairments.
2 In 2020 and 2019, our results were impacted by costs associated with our execution of programs to optimize our organization and cost structure on a global basis. These actions included streamlining our international
39

operations, rationalizing our manufacturing facilities, reducing our general and administrative infrastructure, re-aligning certain R&D activities and cancelling certain R&D programs. Our results in 2020 included business optimization charges of $13 million in the second quarter and $45 million in the first half. Our results in 2019 included business optimization charges of $65 million in the second quarter and $103 million in the first half. Additionally, we recognized a gain of $17 million in the first half of 2020 for property we sold in conjunction with our business optimization initiatives. Refer to Note 11 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding these charges and related liabilities.
3 Our results in 2020 included $9 million in the second quarter and $37 million in the first half of acquisition and integration expenses. This included acquisition and integration expenses related to our acquisitions of Cheetah Medical Inc. (Cheetah) and Seprafilm of $8 million in the second quarter and $18 million in the first half and the purchase of in-process R&D assets of $1 million in the second quarter and $22 million in the first half, partially offset by the change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities of $3 million in the first half. Our results in 2019 included $10 million in the second quarter and $24 million in the first half of acquisition and integration expenses. This included acquisition and integration expenses related to our acquisitions of Claris and the RECOTHROM and PREVELEAK products in prior periods of $12 million in the second quarter and $22 million in the first half and the purchase of in-process R&D assets of $2 million in the second quarter and $6 million in the first half, partially offset by the change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities of $4 million in the second quarter and first half. Refer to Note 3 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding business development activities.
4 Our results in 2020 included $8 million in the second quarter and $14 million in the first half of costs related to updating our quality systems and product labeling to comply with the new medical device reporting regulation and other requirements of the European Union’s regulations for medical devices that are scheduled to become effective in 2021. Our results in 2019 included $6 million in the second quarter and $10 million in the first half of costs related to these requirements.
5 Our results in 2020 included costs of $2 million in the second quarter and $20 million in the first half for investigation and related costs. This included $2 million in the second quarter and $12 million in the first half of costs related to our investigation of foreign exchange gains and losses associated with certain intra-company transactions and related legal matters. Additionally, we recorded incremental stock compensation expense of $8 million in the first half as we extended the term of certain stock options that were scheduled to expire in the first quarter of 2020. Refer to Notes 7 and 8 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding the investigation and stock compensation expense.
6 Our results in 2019 included a benefit of $33 million in the first half for our allocation of insurance proceeds received pursuant to a settlement and cost-sharing arrangement for a legacy product-related matter. Refer to Note 7 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.
7 Reflected in this item is the income tax impact of the special items identified in this table. The tax effect of each adjustment is based on the jurisdiction in which the adjustment is incurred and the tax laws in effect for each such jurisdiction.

Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net sales by 3 percentage points during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the prior-year period principally due to the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Brazilian Real, Euro, Mexican Peso, Australian Dollar and Colombian Peso. Foreign currency unfavorably impacted net sales by 2 percentage points during the first half of 2020 compared to the prior-year period principally due to the strengthening of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro, Australian Dollar, Brazilian Real, Chinese Renminbi and Colombian Peso.
The comparisons presented at constant currency rates reflect local currency sales at the prior period’s foreign exchange rates. This measure provides information on the change in net sales assuming that foreign currency exchange rates had not changed between the prior and the current period. We believe that the non-GAAP measure of change in net sales at constant currency rates, when used in conjunction with the U.S. GAAP measure of change in net sales at actual currency rates, may provide a more complete understanding and facilitate a fuller analysis of our results of operations, particularly in evaluating performance from one period to another.
Our global operations expose us to risks associated with public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, such as the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). COVID-19 has had, and we expect will continue to have, an adverse impact on our operations, supply chains and distribution systems and increase our expenses, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that we, other businesses and governments are taking. These measures have led to unprecedented restrictions on, disruptions in, and other related impacts on businesses and personal activities. In addition to travel restrictions put in place in early 2020, governments have closed borders, imposed prolonged quarantines and may continue those measures or implement other restrictions and requirements in light of the continuing spread of the pandemic and concern of a “second wave” of outbreaks. We expect that these evolving restrictions and requirements, as well as the corresponding need to adapt to new methods of conducting business remotely, will continue to have an adverse effect on our business. For further discussion, refer to the Global Business Unit Net Sales Reporting section below, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Renal Care net sales increased 1% in the second quarter and 2% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The increase in the second quarter and first half was driven by global patient growth in PD, partially offset by a 4% and 3%, respectively, adverse impact from foreign exchange rate changes, as compared to the prior-year periods. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the increase in demand for PD products in the current periods.
Medication Delivery net sales decreased 11% in the second quarter and 2% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The decrease in the second quarter and first half was primarily driven by lower demand in the second quarter for our infusion systems and related IV administration sets and solutions due to lower hospital admission rates and a reduction in elective surgeries due to the COVID-19 global pandemic, including the impact from shelter in place initiatives as well as patient safety concerns related to potential COVID-19 infection risk. Foreign exchange rate changes negatively impacted sales by 2%, as compared to the prior-year periods. Demand in the second quarter was also adversely affected by increased customer purchases of our IV administration sets and solutions late in the first quarter, as hospitals prepared for an expected inflow of COVID-19 patients.
Pharmaceuticals net sales decreased 10% in the second quarter and 3% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The decrease in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was driven by lower demand for inhaled anesthesia products as a result of lower hospital admission rates and reduced elective surgeries in the second quarter resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic. Sales in the second quarter and first half of 2020 were also negatively impacted by new competitive entrants for TransDerm Scop. Foreign exchange rate changes adversely impacted sales by 3% and 2%, respectively, as compared to the prior-year periods. Those impacts were partially offset by increased demand for our international pharmacy compounding services along with certain generic injectables.
Clinical Nutrition net sales increased 2% in the second quarter and 5% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The increase in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was driven by increased demand for our PN therapies and related products, partially offset by a 3% and 2%, respectively, adverse impact from foreign exchange rate changes, as compared to the prior-year periods. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the increases in demand for those therapies and related products in the second quarter and first half of 2020.
Advanced Surgery net sales decreased 27% the second quarter and 9% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The decrease in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as many elective surgeries were postponed and a 0% and 1% adverse impact from foreign exchange rate changes, as compared to the prior-year periods. Partially offsetting the decreases was the acquisition of Seprafilm, which contributed $23 million and $36 million in net sales during the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. Also offsetting the decrease in the first half of 2020 was a benefit from increased demand for our hemostats and sealants early in the year due, in part, to competitive supply disruptions.
Acute Therapies net sales increased 41% in the second quarter and 31% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The increase in the second quarter and first half was driven by increased global demand for our CRRT systems to treat acute kidney injuries, partially offset by a 4% and 3%, respectively, adverse impact from foreign exchange rate changes, as compared to the prior-year periods. The COVID-19 pandemic drove the increases in demand for those products in the second quarter and first half of 2020.
Other net sales increased 6% in the second quarter and 7% in the first half of 2020, as compared to the prior-year periods. The increase in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was driven by increased demand for our contract

Gross Margin
The gross margin ratio was 38.2% and 39.9% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 3.4 and 3.1 percentage points on the gross margin ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The gross margin ratio was 40.7% and 40.8% in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 3.7 and 3.2 percentage points on the gross margin ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. Refer to the Special Items caption above for additional detail.
Excluding the impact of the special items, the gross margin ratio decreased in the second quarter and first half of 2020 compared to the prior year due to an unfavorable product mix, additional compensation costs, primarily for our manufacturing employees, and incremental logistics costs, all in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
We expect the gross margin ratio for full year 2020 to be negatively impacted by those same factors.
SG&A
The SG&A expenses ratio was 21.7% and 22.1% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 0.5 and 1.0 percentage points on the SG&A expenses ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The SG&A expenses ratio was 22.6% and 22.7% in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 1.1 and 0.8 percentage points on the SG&A expenses ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. Refer to the Special Items caption above for additional detail.
Excluding the impact of the special items, the SG&A expenses ratio decreased in the second quarter and first half of 2020 primarily due to lower bonus accruals under our annual employee incentive compensation plans, actions we took to restructure our cost position and focus on expense management and reduced travel and related expenses due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
R&D
The R&D expenses ratio was 4.3% and 4.8% in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 0.0 and 0.4 percentage points on the R&D expenses ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively. The R&D expenses ratio was 5.9% and 5.4% in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The special items identified above had an unfavorable impact of approximately 0.9 and 0.7 percentage points on the R&D expenses ratio in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. Refer to the Special Items caption above for additional detail.
43

Excluding the impact of the special items, the R&D expenses ratio decreased in the second quarter and first half of 2020 as a result of the timing of project-related expenditures compared to the prior year and actions we took to restructure our cost position and focus on expense management.
Business Optimization Items
Beginning in the second half of 2015, we have undertaken actions to transform our cost structure and enhance operational efficiency. These efforts include restructuring the organization, optimizing our manufacturing footprint, R&D operations and supply chain network, employing disciplined cost management, and centralizing and streamlining certain support functions. Through June 30, 2020, we have incurred cumulative pre-tax costs of $1.0 billion related to these actions. The costs consisted primarily of employee termination costs, implementation costs, asset impairments, and accelerated depreciation. We currently expect to incur additional pre-tax costs of approximately $15 million through the completion of the initiatives that are currently underway, primarily related to employee termination costs and implementation costs. We continue to pursue cost savings initiatives and, to the extent further cost savings opportunities are identified, we may incur additional restructuring charges and costs to implement business optimization programs in future periods. The reductions in our cost base from these actions in the aggregate are expected to provide cumulative annual pre-tax savings of approximately $1.2 billion once the remaining actions are complete. The savings from these actions will impact cost of sales, SG&A expenses, and R&D expenses. Approximately 95 percent of the expected annual pre-tax savings are expected to be realized by the end of 2020, with the remainder by the end of 2023.
Other Operating Income, Net
Other operating income, net was $20 million in the first half of 2020 as we recognized a $17 million gain on the sale of property in conjunction with our business optimization initiatives and a $3 million gain as a result of a change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities. Other operating income, net was $4 million and $37 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. In the second quarter and first half of 2019, we recognized a benefit of $4 million related to the change in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration liabilities. In the first half of 2019, we recognized a $33 million gain when our share of the proceeds under a cost-sharing agreement became realizable following the resolution of a dispute with an insurer related to a legacy product-related matter.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net was $36 million and $57 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and $20 million and $38 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The increase in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was primarily driven by higher average debt outstanding as a result of the March 2020 issuance of $750 million of 3.75% senior notes due October 2025 and $500 million of 3.95% senior notes due April 2030 and the May 2019 issuance of €750 million of 0.40% senior notes due May 2024 and €750 million of 1.3% senior notes due May 2029.
We expect that interest expense, net will increase by more than $60 million in 2020 compared to 2019 primarily due to reduced interest income as a result of lower interest rates on cash balances and higher interest expense as a result of the $1.25 billion of senior notes issued in March 2020.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
Other (income) expense, net was an expense of $6 million and $16 million in the second quarter and first half of 2020, respectively, and an expense of $4 million and income of $17 million in the second quarter and first half of 2019, respectively. The increase in expense in the second quarter and first half of 2020 compared to the prior year was primarily due to lower pension benefits as a result of the annuitization of our U.S. pension plans in the fourth quarter of 2019.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was 14.5% and 4.0% in the second quarter and 13.0% and 8.0% in the first half of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our effective income tax rate can differ from the 21% U.S. federal statutory rate due to a number of factors, including foreign rate differences, tax incentives, increases or decreases in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
44

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to favorable geographic earnings mix and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the difference between our effective income tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily attributable to the recognition of tax benefits associated with a favorable tax ruling and excess tax benefits on stock compensation awards.
Segment Results
We use operating income on a segment basis to make resource allocation decisions and assess the ongoing performance of our segments. The following is a summary of financial information for our reportable segments:

| Net sales |  |  |  |  |  | Operating income (loss) |  |  |  |

Americas
Segment net sales and operating income were $1.4 billion and $489 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $2.9 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively, in the first half of 2020. Segment net sales and operating income were $1.5 billion and $582 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $2.9 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, in the first half of 2019. The decreases in the second quarter and first half of 2020 were primarily driven by decreased sales and gross margin in multiple GBUs, particularly Medication Delivery, Pharmaceuticals and Advanced Surgery, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease was partially offset by favorable performance in Acute Therapies and Clinical Nutrition as well as the acquisition of Seprafilm.
EMEA
Segment net sales and operating income were $731 million and $159 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $1.5 billion and $320 million, respectively, in the first half of 2020. Segment net sales and operating income were $742 million and $159 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $1.4 billion and $303 million, respectively, in the first half of 2019. The change in foreign exchange rates had an adverse impact on results in 2020 as compared to 2019. On a constant currency basis, net sales increased in both the second quarter and first half of 2020 as favorable performance in Acute Therapies, Clinical Nutrition and Renal Care was partially offset by unfavorable performance in Advanced Surgery and Medication Delivery.
APAC
Segment net sales and operating income were $580 million and $143 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $1.1 billion and $271 million, respectively, in the first half of 2020. Segment net sales and operating income were $573 million and $136 million, respectively, in the second quarter and $1.1 billion and $256 million, respectively, in the first half of 2019. The increases in the second quarter and first half of 2020 were primarily driven by increased sales and gross margin in multiple GBUs, particularly Renal Care, Acute Therapies and Pharmaceuticals. The acquisition of Seprafilm also positively contributed to results in 2020. The change in foreign exchange rates had an adverse impact on results in 2020 as compared to 2019.
Corporate and Other
Certain items are maintained at Corporate and are not allocated to a segment. They primarily include certain foreign currency hedging activities, corporate headquarters costs, certain R&D costs, certain GBU support costs, stock
45

compensation expense, certain employee benefit plan costs, and certain gains, losses, and other charges (such as business optimization, acquisition and integration costs, intangible asset amortization and asset impairments). The operating loss in the second quarter and first half of 2020 was lower than the prior-year period due to lower expenses and the gain recognized in the current year related to the sale of property in connection with our business optimization initiatives and a lower intangible asset impairment in the current year compared to the prior year, partially offset by the prior-year gain recognized when our share of the proceeds under a cost-sharing agreement became realizable following the resolution of a dispute with an insurer related to a legacy product-related matter and higher investigation and related costs, acquisition and integration costs and intangible asset amortization in the current year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The following table is a summary of the statement of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

| Six months ended June 30, |  |
|  |  | As Restated
(in millions) | 2020 |  | 2019
Cash flows from operations - continuing operations | $ | 648 |  |  | $ | 580 |
Cash flows from investing activities | (758) |  |  | (448) |
Cash flows from financing activities | 909 |  |  | 968 |

Cash Flows from Operations — Continuing Operations
In the first half of 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $648 million, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $580 million in the first half of 2019, an increase of $68 million. The increase was primarily due to the timing of vendor payments, lower restructuring payments and lower employee incentive compensation payments in the current year, partially offset by a more significant increase in inventory levels in the current year and insurance recoveries received in 2019 from a legacy product-related matter and Hurricane Maria.
While we did not experience significant collection issues related to our receivables during the first half of 2020, the timing of collection of our receivables may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic during the remainder of 2020.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
In the first half of 2020, cash used for investing activities included payments for acquisitions of $453 million, primarily related to Seprafilm and rights to multiple products we acquired, and capital expenditures of $316 million. In the first half of 2019, cash used for investing activities included capital expenditures of $338 million and payments for acquisitions of $111 million, primarily related to the U.S. rights to multiple products we acquired.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
In the first six months of 2020, cash generated from financing activities included $1.2 billion of net proceeds from the issuance of $750 million of senior notes due in 2025 and $500 million of senior notes due in 2030. We will use the net proceeds from the senior notes issuances for general corporate purposes, including to strengthen our balance sheet as a precautionary measure in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Cash generated from financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2020 also included stock issued under employee benefit plans of $151 million and was partially offset by the repayment of borrowings under our Euro-denominated credit facility of €200 million ($225 million) and dividend payments of $223 million. In the first six months of 2019, cash generated from financing activities included $1.7 billion of net proceeds from the issuance of €750 million of senior notes due in 2024 and €750 million of senior notes due in 2029 along with stock issued under employee benefit plans of $262 million, partially offset by payments for stock repurchases of $720 million and dividend payments of $198 million.
As authorized by the Board of Directors, we repurchase our stock depending upon our cash flows, net debt levels and market conditions. In July 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of our common stock. The Board of Directors increased this authority by an additional $1.5 billion in each of November 2016 and February 2018 and by an additional $2.0 billion in November 2018. We did not repurchase any shares under this authority in the first half of 2020 and had $897 million remaining available under this authorization as of June 30, 2020.

Credit Facilities and Access to Capital and Credit Ratings
Credit Facilities
As of June 30, 2020, our U.S. dollar-denominated revolving credit facility and Euro-denominated senior revolving credit facility had a maximum capacity of $2.0 billion and €200 million, respectively. There was no amount outstanding under our U.S. dollar-denominated and Euro-denominated credit facilities as of June 30, 2020. There was €200 million ($224 million) outstanding at a 0.9% interest rate under our Euro-denominated credit facility and no amount outstanding under our U.S. dollar-denominated credit facility as of December 31, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, we were in compliance with the financial covenants in these agreements. The non-performance of any financial institution supporting either of the credit facilities would reduce the maximum capacity of these facilities by each institution’s respective commitment.
Access to Capital and Credit Ratings
We intend to fund short-term and long-term obligations as they mature through cash on hand, future cash flows from operations or by issuing additional debt. We had $4.1 billion of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2020, with adequate cash available to meet operating requirements in each jurisdiction in which we operate. We invest our excess cash in money market and other funds and diversify the concentration of cash among different financial institutions.
Our ability to generate cash flows from operations, issue debt or enter into other financing arrangements on acceptable terms could be adversely affected if there is a material decline in the demand for our products or in the solvency of our customers or suppliers, deterioration in our key financial ratios or credit ratings or other significantly unfavorable changes in conditions. However, we believe we have sufficient financial flexibility to issue debt, enter into other financing arrangements and attract long-term capital on acceptable terms to support our growth objectives. Between March and July 2020, Standard & Poor’s, Fitch, and Moody’s reaffirmed our investment grade credit ratings that we disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report.
LIBOR Reform
In 2017, the United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority announced that after 2021 it would no longer compel banks to submit the rates required to calculate the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates, which have been widely used as reference rates for various securities and financial contracts, including loans, debt and derivatives. This announcement indicates that the continuation of LIBOR on the current basis is not guaranteed after 2021. Regulators in the U.S. and other jurisdictions have been working to replace these rates with alternative reference interest rates that are supported by transactions in liquid and observable markets, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). Currently, our credit facilities and certain of our derivative instruments reference LIBOR-based rates. The discontinuation of LIBOR will require these arrangements to be modified in order to replace LIBOR with an alternative reference interest rate, which could impact our cost of funds. Our credit facilities include a provision for the determination of a successor LIBOR rate.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our 2019 Annual Report. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical, as these policies are the most important to the depiction of our financial statements and require significant, difficult or complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Such policies are summarized in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section in our 2019 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes in the application of our critical accounting policies during the first half of 2020.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Refer to Note 1 in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for information regarding recently adopted accounting pronouncements. There are no accounting standards issued but not yet effective that we believe will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
47

LEGAL CONTINGENCIES
Refer to Note 7 within Item 1 for a discussion of our legal contingencies. Upon resolution of any of these uncertainties, we may incur charges in excess of presently established liabilities. While our liability in connection with certain claims cannot be estimated with any certainty, and although the resolution in any reporting period of one or more of these matters could have a significant impact on our results of operations and cash flows for that period, the outcome of these legal proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. While we believe that we have valid defenses in these matters, litigation is inherently uncertain, excessive verdicts do occur, and we may in the future incur material judgments or enter into material settlements of claims.
CERTAIN REGULATORY MATTERS
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) commenced an inspection of Claris’ facilities in Ahmedabad, India in July 2017, immediately prior to the closing of the Claris acquisition. FDA completed the inspection and subsequently issued a Warning Letter based on observations identified in the 2017 inspection (Claris Warning Letter).1
While FDA has not yet re-inspected the facilities, we are continuing to implement corrective and preventive actions to address FDA’s prior observations and other items identified in connection with integrating Claris into our quality systems.
While management cannot speculate on when the Claris Warning Letter will be lifted, management continues to pursue and implement other manufacturing locations, including contract manufacturing organizations, to support the production of new products for distribution in the U.S. in the meantime. As of December 31, 2019, we have secured alternative locations to produce a majority of the planned new products for distribution into the U.S.
On May 6, 2019, we received a Show Cause Notice under the Drugs & Cosmetics Act, 1940 and Rules thereunder (Show Cause Notice) from the Commissioner of the Food & Drugs Control Administration in the Gujarat State in Gandhinagar, India (Commissioner). The Show Cause Notice was issued regarding an April 9, 2019 inspection of our Claris facilities in Ahmedabad, India by the Commissioner. The Show Cause Notice contained a number of observations of alleged Good Manufacturing Practice related issues across a variety of areas, some of which overlap with the areas covered in the Claris Warning Letter. We responded to the Show Cause Notice and a follow up inspection occurred in July 2019. This matter resulted in a two-day suspension order for certain manufacturing operations, which occurred on March 19 and 20, 2020. This matter is now closed.
In June 2013, we received a Warning Letter from FDA regarding operations and processes at our North Cove, North Carolina and Jayuya, Puerto Rico facilities. We attended Regulatory Meetings with FDA regarding one or both of these facilities in October 2014, November 2015, July 2017, April 2018 and October 2018. The Warning Letter addresses observations related to Current Good Manufacturing Practice violations at the two facilities. The Warning Letter was closed out in September 2019.
As previously disclosed, in the fourth quarter of 2012, we received two investigative demands from the United States Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina for information regarding our quality and manufacturing practices and procedures at our North Cove facility. In January 2017, the parties resolved the matter by entering into a deferred prosecution agreement and a civil settlement whereby we agreed to pay approximately $18 million and implement certain enhanced compliance measures. In July 2019, the deferred prosecution agreement expired and, based on our fulfillment of the terms of the agreement, the court dismissed the criminal information previously filed in the case with prejudice.

and our R&D pipeline, strategic objectives, sales from new product offerings, credit exposure to foreign governments, potential developments with respect to credit ratings, investment of foreign earnings, estimates of liabilities including those related to uncertain tax positions, contingent payments, future pension plan contributions, costs, discount rates and rates of return, our exposure to financial market volatility and foreign currency and interest rate risks, potential tax liability associated with the separation of our biopharmaceuticals and medical products businesses, the impact of competition, future sales growth, business development activities (including the acquisitions of Cheetah and Seprafilm from Sanofi), business optimization initiatives, cost saving initiatives, future capital and R&D expenditures, future debt issuances, manufacturing expansion, the sufficiency of our facilities and financial flexibility, the adequacy of credit facilities, tax provisions and reserves, the effective tax rate and all other statements that do not relate to historical facts.
These forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, and expected future developments as well as other factors that we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. While these statements represent our judgment on what the future may hold, and we believe these judgments are reasonable, these statements are not guarantees of any events or financial results. Whether actual future results and developments will conform to expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the following factors, many of which are beyond our control:

| • | demand for and market acceptance risks for and competitive pressures related to new and existing products (including challenges with our ability to accurately predict these pressures and the resulting impact on customer inventory levels and the impact of reduced hospital admission rates and elective surgery volumes), and the impact of those products on quality and patient safety concerns;

| • | product development risks, including satisfactory clinical performance, the ability to manufacture at appropriate scale, and the general unpredictability associated with the product development cycle;

| • | our ability to finance and develop new products or enhancements on commercially acceptable terms or at all;

| • | our ability to identify business development and growth opportunities and to successfully execute on business development strategies;

| • | product quality or patient safety issues, leading to product recalls, withdrawals, launch delays, warning letters, import bans, sanctions, seizures, litigation, or declining sales;
| • | the impact of global economic conditions (including potential trade wars) and public health crises and epidemics, such as the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19), including any potential "second wave," on us and our customers and suppliers, including foreign governments in countries in which we operate;

| • | the continuity, availability and pricing of acceptable raw materials and component supply, and the related continuity of our manufacturing and distribution;

| • | inability to create additional production capacity in a timely manner or the occurrence of other manufacturing, sterilization or supply difficulties (including as a result of natural disaster, public health crises and epidemics/pandemics, regulatory actions or otherwise);

| • | breaches or failures of our information technology systems or products, including by cyber-attack, data leakage, unauthorized access or theft (as a result of increased remote working arrangements or otherwise);

49

| • | future actions of (or failures to act or delays in acting by) FDA, the European Medicines Agency or any other regulatory body or government authority (including the SEC, DOJ or the Attorney General of any State) that could delay, limit or suspend product development, manufacturing or sale or result in seizures, recalls, injunctions, monetary sanctions or criminal or civil liabilities, including the continued delay in lifting the warning letter at our Ahmedabad facility or proceedings related to the misstatements in previously reported non-operating income related to foreign exchange gains and losses;

| • | the impacts of the material weakness identified as a result of the internal investigation related to foreign exchange gains and losses and our remediation efforts, including the risk that we may experience additional material weaknesses;

| • | developments that would require the correction of additional misstatements in our previously issued financial statements;

| • | failures with respect to our quality, compliance or ethics programs;

| • | future actions of third parties, including third-party payers, the impact of healthcare reform and its implementation, suspension, repeal, replacement, amendment, modification and other similar actions undertaken by the United States or foreign governments, including with respect to pricing, reimbursement, taxation and rebate policies; legislation, regulation and other governmental pressures in the United States or globally, including the cost of compliance and potential penalties for purported noncompliance thereof, all of which may affect pricing, reimbursement, taxation and rebate policies of government agencies and private payers or other elements of our business, including new or amended laws, rules and regulations (such as the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation and proposed regulatory changes of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in kidney health policy and reimbursement, which may substantially change the U.S. end stage renal disease market and demand for our peritoneal dialysis products, necessitating significant multi-year capital expenditures, which are difficult to estimate in advance, for example);

| • | the outcome of pending or future litigation, including the opioid litigation and litigation related to the investigation of foreign exchange gains and losses;
| • | failure to achieve our long-term financial improvement goals;

| • | the impact of competitive products and pricing, including generic competition, drug reimportation and disruptive technologies;

| • | global regulatory, trade and tax policies;

| • | the ability to protect or enforce our owned or in-licensed patent or other proprietary rights (including trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and know-how) or patents of third parties preventing or restricting our manufacture, sale or use of affected products or technology;

| • | the impact of any goodwill or other intangible asset impairments on our operating results;

| • | any failure by Baxalta or Shire to satisfy its obligations under the separation agreements, including the tax matters agreement, or that certain letter agreement entered into with Shire and Baxalta;

| • | fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rates;

| • | any changes in law concerning the taxation of income (whether with respect to current or future tax reform), including income earned outside the United States and potential taxes associated with the Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax;

50

| • | actions by tax authorities in connection with ongoing tax audits;

| • | loss of key employees or inability to identify and recruit new employees;

| • | other factors identified elsewhere in this report and other filings with the SEC, including those factors described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, all of which are available on our website.

Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We do not undertake to update our forward-looking statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Currency Risk
We are primarily exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to revenues generated outside of the United States denominated in the Euro, British Pound, Chinese Yuan, Korean Won, Australian Dollar, Canadian Dollar, Japanese Yen, Colombian Peso, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso and Swedish Krona. We manage our foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows us to net exposures and take advantage of any natural offsets. In addition, we use derivative and nonderivative financial instruments to further reduce the net exposure to foreign exchange. Gains and losses on the hedging instruments offset losses and gains on the hedged transactions and reduce the earnings and stockholders’ equity volatility relating to foreign exchange. However, we don't hedge our entire foreign exchange exposure and are still subject to earnings and stockholders' equity volatility relating to foreign exchange risk. Financial market and currency volatility may limit our ability to cost-effectively hedge these exposures.
We use options and forwards to hedge the foreign exchange risk to earnings relating to forecasted transactions denominated in foreign currencies and recognized assets and liabilities. The maximum term over which we have cash flow hedge contracts in place related to foreign exchange risk on forecasted transactions as of June 30, 2020 is 12 months. We also enter into derivative instruments to hedge foreign exchange risk on certain intra-company and third-party receivables and payables and debt denominated in foreign currencies.
As part of our risk-management program, we perform sensitivity analyses to assess potential changes in the fair value of our foreign exchange instruments relating to hypothetical and reasonably possible near-term movements in foreign exchange rates.
A sensitivity analysis of changes in the fair value of foreign exchange option and forward contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2020, while not predictive in nature, indicated that if the U.S. Dollar uniformly weakened by 10% against all currencies, on a net-of-tax basis, the net asset balance of $15 million with respect to those contracts would increase by $7 million.
The sensitivity analysis model recalculates the fair value of the foreign exchange option and forward contracts outstanding as of June 30, 2020 by replacing the actual exchange rates as of June 30, 2020 with exchange rates that are 10% weaker compared to the actual exchange rates for each applicable currency. All other factors are held constant. These sensitivity analyses disregard the possibility that currency exchange rates can move in opposite directions and that gains from one currency may or may not be offset by losses from another currency. The analyses also disregard the offsetting change in value of the underlying hedged transactions and balances.
Our operations in Argentina are reported using highly inflationary accounting effective July 1, 2018. Changes in the value of the Argentine Peso applied to our peso-denominated net monetary asset positions are recorded in income at the time of the change. As of June 30, 2020, our net monetary assets denominated in Argentine Pesos are not significant.
Interest Rate and Other Risks
Refer to the caption “Interest Rate and Other Risks” in the “Financial Instrument Market Risk” section of the 2019 Annual Report. There were no significant changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of June 30, 2020.
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We did not maintain effective controls over the accounting for certain foreign exchange gains and losses. Specifically, we previously did not have controls in place to monitor and quantify the difference between the foreign exchange gains and losses that we reported and the foreign exchange gains and losses that we would have reported using exchange rates determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Additionally, our policies and controls related to approvals and monitoring of intra-company transactions were insufficient to prevent or detect intra-company transactions undertaken solely for the purpose of generating foreign exchange gains or avoiding losses under our historical exchange rate convention. This material weakness resulted in the restatement of our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018 and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 and each of the quarterly and year-to-date periods in the year ended December 31, 2018 and the first two quarters and related year-to-date interim period in the year ended December 31, 2019. Additionally, this material weakness could result in a misstatement of the aforementioned account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Remediation of the Material Weakness
Management has implemented changes to strengthen our internal controls over the accounting for foreign exchange gains and losses. These changes are intended to address the identified material weakness and enhance our overall control environment and include the ongoing activities described below.
•Exchange Rate Policy – We have discontinued the use of our historical exchange rate convention and are using the exchange rates determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP for purposes of measuring foreign currency transactions and remeasuring monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency.
•Automated Feed – We have implemented an automated feed that extracts foreign exchange rates on a daily basis from a recognized third-party exchange rate source.
•Daily Rate Comparison – We have implemented a daily rate comparison control that extracts foreign exchange rates from (a) a third-party exchange rate source, (b) our treasury application, and (c) our enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and compares those rates in order to identify any potential differences and provide assurance that the correct rates were captured and are being used in our financial systems.
•Intra-company Transaction Approvals – We have updated our policies to require additional approvals of intra-company transactions and implemented a requirement that such transactions be supported by a documented business purpose.
•Personnel - We have made personnel changes including hiring a new treasurer from outside Baxter with more than thirty years of treasury experience and responsibility, including at four publicly traded companies. We have also hired another experienced treasury professional in a newly created director role responsible for treasury governance and controls. Additionally, we have created a treasury controller role within our accounting function and are continuing to add resources as appropriate to improve our financial reporting controls related to treasury activities.
We have made significant progress to remediate the material weakness and have fully implemented the above remediation actions. However, while we believe that those actions will remediate the material weakness, we intend to
53

continue to monitor their operating effectiveness for a sufficient period of time prior to reaching a determination that the material weakness has been remediated.
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Chan g es in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
As previously disclosed, we are currently implementing an upgrade to our ERP software. In connection with the ERP upgrade, we are updating the processes that constitute our internal control over financial reporting, as necessary. This normal course of business ERP upgrade is being implemented to remain current with the latest release of the software.
As previously disclosed, since 2017, we have been implementing a long-term business transformation project within the finance, human resources, purchasing and information technology functions which will further centralize and standardize business processes and systems across the company. We are transitioning some processes to our shared services centers while others have been moved to outsourced providers. This multi-year initiative is being conducted in phases and includes modifications to the design and operation of controls over financial reporting.
As a result of COVID-19, our global accounting and financial reporting function has shifted to a primarily work from home environment and that change was rapid. While our internal controls over financial reporting were not specifically designed for our current work from home operating environment, we believe that those internal controls are continuing to function effectively, with the exception of the material weakness identified above, while primarily being performed remotely in the current environment.
Other than as described in the three preceding paragraphs and in the Remediation of Material Weakness section above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Review by Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
A review of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 has been performed by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. Its report on the interim condensed consolidated financial information follows. This report is not considered a report within the meaning of Sections 7 and 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 and, therefore, the independent accountants’ liability under Section 11 does not extend to it.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Baxter International Inc.
Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Baxter International Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2020, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and changes in equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, including the related notes, appearing under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (collectively referred to as the “interim financial statements”). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the interim financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated March 17, 2020, which included a paragraph regarding the correction of misstatements in the 2018 and 2017 financial statements and a paragraph describing a change in the manner of accounting for leases in 2019, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
Restatement of Previously Issued Interim Financial Statements
As discussed in Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019 to correct misstatements.
Basis for Review Results
These interim financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information in Part I, Item 1, Note 7 is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following risk factor should be read in conjunction with our risk factors discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in our 2019 Annual Report, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Except as set forth below, we are not aware of any material changes to the risk factors described in our 2019 Annual Report.
We are subject to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic and related impacts, which have had, and we expect will continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business. The nature and extent of future impacts are highly uncertain and unpredictable.
Our global operations expose us to risks associated with public health crises, including epidemics and pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has had, and we expect will continue to have, an adverse impact on our operations, supply chains and distribution systems and increase our expenses, including as a result of impacts associated with preventive and precautionary measures that we, other businesses and governments are taking. These measures have led to unprecedented restrictions on, disruptions in, and other related impacts on businesses and personal activities. In addition to travel restrictions put in place in early 2020, governments have closed borders, imposed prolonged quarantines and may continue those measures or implement other restrictions and requirements in light of the continuing spread of the pandemic and concern of a “second wave” of outbreaks. We expect that these evolving restrictions and requirements, as well as the corresponding need to adapt to new methods of conducting business remotely, will continue to have an adverse effect on our business. Risks associated with COVID-19 include, but are not limited to, the following:
•We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, significant and unpredictable reductions or increases in demand for certain of our products as healthcare customers re-prioritize the treatment of patients. Some of our products are particularly sensitive to reductions in elective medical procedures, and, as hospital systems prioritize treatment of COVID-19 patients and otherwise comply with government guidelines, many of those procedures have been suspended or postponed in our principal markets. In the second quarter of 2020, this resulted in significantly lower levels of general hospital admissions and elective surgery volumes in those markets, which negatively impacted the demand for certain of our products. It is not possible to predict the timing of a broad resumption of elective medical procedures. If patients and hospital systems continue to de-prioritize, delay or cancel these procedures, our business, financial condition and results of operations would continue to be negatively affected.
•A significant number of our suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and vendors have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, including by impacting the ability of their employees to get to their places of work and maintain the continuity of their on-site operations. These impacts could impair our ability to move our products through distribution channels to end customers, and any such delay or shortage in the supply of components or materials may result in our inability to satisfy consumer demand for our products in a timely manner or at all, which could harm our reputation, future sales and profitability.
•We could experience a loss of sales and profitability due to delayed payments, reduced demand or insolvency of healthcare professionals, hospitals and other customers, and suppliers and vendors facing liquidity or other financial issues. These liquidity or other financial issues could be exacerbated if prolonged high levels of unemployment or loss of insurance coverage impact patients’ ability to access treatments that use our products and services.
•COVID-19 could adversely impact our ability to retain key employees and the continued service and availability of skilled personnel necessary to run our operations, including members of our management, as well as the ability of our suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and vendors to retain their key employees. To the extent our management or other personnel are impacted in significant numbers by COVID-19 and are not available to perform their professional duties, we could experience delays in, or the suspension of, our manufacturing operations, research and development activities and other functions.
•We face increased operational challenges as we continue to take measures to support and protect employee health and safety, including through office closures and the implementation of work from home policies. For
57

example, remote working arrangements heighten our risks associated with information technology systems and networks, including cyber-attacks, computer viruses, malicious software, security breach, and telecommunication failures, both for systems and networks we control directly and for those that employees and third-party developers rely on to work remotely. Any failure to prevent or mitigate security breaches or cyber risks or detect, or respond adequately to, a security breach or cyber risk, or any other disruptions to our information technology systems and networks, can have adverse effects on our business and cause reputational and financial harm. We have, like other large multi-national companies, experienced cyber incidents in the past and may experience them in the future, which have exposed and may continue to expose vulnerabilities in our information technology systems. These risks are particularly heightened due to COVID-19 as cybercriminals attempt to profit from the disruptions caused by the uncertain environment.
•COVID-19 and related impacts have affected and may further affect the global economy and capital markets worldwide, which, among other consequences, may restrict our access to capital, increase financing costs, adversely affect our liquidity, the perceptions of our creditworthiness, and our ability to complete acquisitions, and increase volatility in foreign currency exchange rates.
While COVID-19 has had, and we expect it to continue to have, an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, it is uncertain how COVID-19 will affect our global operations generally if these impacts continue to persist or exacerbate over an extended period of time. Uncertainties include, but are not limited to:
•The severity and duration of the pandemic, including whether there is a “second wave” caused by additional periods of increases or spikes in the number of COVID-19 cases, future mutations or outbreaks of related strains of the virus in areas in which we operate;
•Evolving macroeconomic factors, including general economic uncertainty, unemployment rates, and recessionary pressures;
•The continued success of measures taken by governmental authorities worldwide to stabilize the markets and support economic growth, which is unknown and may not be sufficient to address future market dislocations or avert severe and prolonged reductions in economic activity;
•Unknown consequences on our business performance and initiatives stemming from the substantial investment of time and other resources to the pandemic response;
•The pace of recovery when the pandemic subsides; and
•The long-term impact of the pandemic on our business.
Any of the impacts discussed above could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. To the extent that COVID-19 continues to adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, it may also heighten other risks described in the “Risk Factors” section in our 2019 Annual Report.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In July 2012, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase up to $2.0 billion of our common stock on the open market or in private transactions. The Board of Directors increased this authority by an additional $1.5 billion in each of November 2016 and February 2018 and by an additional $2.0 billion in November 2018. During the first half of 2020, we did not repurchase any shares pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 plans. We had $897 million remaining under this program (as amended and after giving effect to stock repurchases) as of June 30, 2020. This program does not have an expiration date.
