Commitments and Contingencies	21. Commitments and Contingencies Employee Retirement Savings Plan The Company sponsors a qualified defined contribution plan or 401(k) plan, the Masimo Retirement Savings Plan (MRSP), covering the Company’s full-time U.S. employees who meet certain eligibility requirements. In general, the Company matches an employee’s contribution up to 3% of the employee’s compensation, subject to a maximum amount. The Company may also contribute to the MRSP on a discretionary basis. The Company contributed $3.4 million, $3.2 million and $2.5 million to the MSRP for the years ended January 1, 2022, January 2, 2021 and December 28, 2019, respectively, all in the form of matching contributions. In addition, the Company sponsors various defined contribution plans in certain locations outside of the United States, the contributions to which were not material for any period. Employment and Severance Agreements In July 2017, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the certain Amended and Restated Employment Agreement entered into between the Company and Mr. Kiani on November 4, 2015 (as amended, the Amended Employment Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Employment Agreement, upon a “Qualifying Termination” (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement), Mr. Kiani will be entitled to receive a cash severance benefit equal to two times the sum of his then-current base salary and the average annual bonus paid to Mr. Kiani during the immediately preceding three years, the full amount of the “Award Shares” (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement) and the full amount of the “Cash Payment” (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement). In addition, in the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement) prior to a Qualifying Termination, on each of the first and second anniversaries of the Change in Control, 50% of the Cash Payment and 50% of the Award Shares will vest, subject in each case to Mr. Kiani’s continuous employment through each such anniversary date; however, in the event of a Qualifying Termination or a termination of Mr. Kiani’s employment due to death or disability prior to either of such anniversaries, any unvested amount of the Cash Payment and all of the unvested Award Shares shall vest and be paid in full. Additionally, in the event of a Change in Control prior to a Qualifying Termination, Mr. Kiani’s stock options and any other equity awards will vest in accordance with their terms, but in no event later than in two equal installments on each of the one year and two year anniversaries of the Change in Control, subject in each case to Mr. Kiani’s continuous employment through each such anniversary date. As of January 1, 2022, the expense related to the Award Shares and Cash Payment that would be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination under the Restated Employment Agreement was approximately $292.9 million. On January 14, 2022, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Amended Employment Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with Mr. Kiani. The Second Amendment provides that the RSUs granted to Mr. Kiani pursuant to the Amended Employment Agreement will vest in full upon the termination of Mr. Kiani’s employment with the Company pursuant to Mr. Kiani’s death or disability. As of January 14, 2022, the expense related to the Award Shares and Cash Payment that would be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon the occurrence of a Qualifying Termination under the Restated Employment Agreement was approximately $664.3 million. As of January 1, 2022, the Company had severance plan participation agreements with five executive officers. The participation agreements (the Agreements) are governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2007 Severance Protection Plan, which became effective on July 19, 2007 and which was amended effective December 31, 2008. Under each of the Agreements, the applicable executive officer may be entitled to receive certain salary, equity, medical and life insurance benefits if he is terminated by the Company without cause or if he terminates his employment for good reason under certain circumstances. Each executive officer is also required to give the Company six months advance notice of his resignation under certain circumstances. Cercacor Cross-Licensing Agreement Provisions The Company’s Cross-Licensing Agreement with Cercacor contains annual minimum aggregate royalty obligations for use of the rainbow® licensed technology. The current annual minimum royalty obligation is $5.0 million. Upon a change in control (as defined in the Cross-Licensing Agreement) of the Company or Cercacor: (i) all rights to the “Masimo” trademark will be assigned to Cercacor if the surviving or acquiring entity ceases to use “Masimo” as a company name and trademark; (ii) the option to license technology developed by Cercacor for use in blood glucose monitoring will be deemed automatically exercised and a $2.5 million license fee for this technology will become immediately payable to Cercacor; and (iii) the minimum aggregate annual royalties payable to Cercacor for carbon monoxide, methemoglobin, fractional arterial oxygen saturation, hemoglobin and/or glucose measurements will increase to $15.0 million per year until the exclusivity period of the agreement ends, plus up to $2.0 million for each additional vital sign measurement with no maximum ceiling for non-vital sign measurements. Purchase Commitments Pursuant to contractual obligations with vendors, the Company had $170.2 million of purchase commitments as of January 1, 2022, that are expected to be purchased within one year. These purchase commitments have been made for certain inventory items in order to secure sufficient levels of those items, other critical inventory and manufacturing supplies and to achieve better pricing. Other Contractual Commitments In the normal course of business, the Company may provide bank guarantees to support government hospital tenders in certain foreign jurisdictions. As of January 1, 2022, the Company had approximately $3.5 million in outstanding unsecured bank guarantees. In certain circumstances, the Company also provides limited indemnification within its various customer contracts whereby the Company indemnifies the parties to whom it sells its products with respect to potential infringement of intellectual property, and against bodily injury caused by a defective Company product. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these or similar agreements, due to the conditional nature of the Company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved. As of January 1, 2022, the Company had not incurred any significant costs related to contractual indemnification of its customers. On February 15, 2022, we announced our entry into a definitive merger agreement to acquire Viper Holdings Corporation, which owns Sound United (“Sound United”), a consumer technology company that owns a portfolio of premium brands, including Bowers & Wilkins, Denon, Polk Audio and Marantz. Pursuant to the merger agreement, the Company will pay approximately $1.025 billion, subject to adjustments. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and is anticipated to close in the middle of 2022. The Company expects to finance the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and new credit facility. The Company received a debt commitment letter for a credit facility in the amount of $800 million and expects to secure this financing in the event the pending acquisition closes.Concentrations of Risk The Company is exposed to credit loss for the amount of its cash deposits with financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Company invests a portion of its excess cash in time deposits with major financial institutions. As of January 1, 2022, the Company had $745.3 million of bank balances of which $5.1 million was covered by either the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit or foreign countries’ deposit insurance organizations. The Company’s ability to sell its products to U.S. hospitals depends in part on its relationships with GPOs. Many existing and potential customers for the Company’s products become members of GPOs. GPOs negotiate pricing arrangements and contracts, sometimes exclusively, with medical supply manufacturers and distributors, and these negotiated prices are made available to a GPO’s affiliated hospitals and other members. During the years ended January 1, 2022, January 2, 2021 and December 28, 2019, revenue from the sale of the Company’s products to customers that are members of GPOs approximated 51.9%, 49.3% and 55.3% of total product revenue, respectively. For the years ended January 1, 2022, January 2, 2021 and December 28, 2019, the Company had sales through two just-in-time distributors that represented 14.6% and 9.6%, 11.5% and 10.1%, and 11.1% and 13.0% of total product revenue, respectively. As of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, one just-in-time distributor represented 7.4% and 6.7% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, one customer represented 15.7% and 9.1%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable balance. The receivable balance related to such customer is fully secured by letters of credit. The majority of the Company’s historical royalty revenue arose from one agreement with Medtronic plc (Medtronic). For the years ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, the Company recognized no royalty revenue pursuant to this agreement. For the year ended December 28, 2019, the Company recognized royalty revenue pursuant to this agreement of $0.7 million. Pursuant to the agreement, Medtronic is not obligated to pay royalties to the Company for its sales occurring after October 6, 2018.
Legal Matters and Contingencies	Litigation During the third quarter of fiscal year 2017, the Company became aware that certain amounts had been paid by a foreign government customer to the Company’s former appointed foreign agent in connection with a foreign government tender, but had not been remitted by such agent to the Company in accordance with the agency agreement. On December 28, 2017, the Company initiated arbitration proceedings against this foreign agent after unsuccessful attempts to recover such remittances. As a result, the Company recorded a net charge of approximately $10.5 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2017 in connection with this dispute, of which $2.0 million was recovered during the year ended December 28, 2019. An arbitration hearing was held on February 11, 2019. On July 8, 2019, the arbitrator awarded the Company $10.5 million in damages, fees and costs. On January 12, 2020, the Company received notice that bankruptcy restructuring proceedings had been initiated for the foreign agent. The Company filed its claim with the bankruptcy trustee on January 16, 2020. In July 2020, the Company was notified that a bankruptcy reorganization proposal had been submitted for voting by creditors in August 2020. The reorganization proposal was rejected by a vote of the creditors on August 26, 2020. On October 22, 2020, the Company filed a petition seeking to enforce the arbitration award. Although the Company intends to vigorously pursue the collection of the arbitration award, there is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in these efforts. On January 2, 2014, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California (District Court) by Physicians Healthsource, Inc. The complaint alleges that the Company sent unsolicited facsimile advertisements in violation of the Junk Fax Protection Act of 2005 and related regulations. The complaint seeks $500 for each alleged violation, treble damages if the District Court finds the alleged violations to be knowing, plus interest, costs and injunctive relief. On March 26, 2019, an amended complaint was filed adding Radha Geismann, M.D. PC as an additional named plaintiff. On June 17, 2019, the plaintiffs filed their motion for class certification. On September 10, 2019, the parties filed motions for summary judgment. On September 30, 2019, the Company filed its opposition to the motion for class certification, and the plaintiffs filed their reply on October 7, 2019. On November 21, 2019, the District Court issued an order denying the plaintiffs’ motion for class certification and granting in part and denying in part the Company’s motion for summary judgment, and deferring ruling on the plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment. On December 5, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a petition for permission to appeal the order denying class certification, which was denied on January 24, 2020. Trial of the individual plaintiffs’ claims was scheduled for June 2, 2020, but on April 1, 2020, the District Court vacated the trial date and directed the parties to conduct an in-person mediation. The mediation has not occurred and no new trial date has been set. On July 13, 2020, the District Court issued an order granting in part and denying in part the plaintiffs’ motion for summary judgment. The Company believes it has good and substantial defenses to the claims, but there is no guarantee that the Company will prevail. The Company is unable to determine whether any loss will ultimately occur or to estimate the range of such loss; therefore, no amount of loss has been accrued by the Company in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
