Related Party Transactions [Abstract] |
RELATED PARTIES | RELATED PARTIES Prior to May 10, 2022, Bausch + Lomb had been managed and operated in the ordinary course of business with other affiliates of BHC. Accordingly, certain corporate and shared costs prior to May 10, 2022 were allocated to Bausch + Lomb and reflected as expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. On May 10, 2022, Bausch + Lomb became an independent publicly traded company. However, as of July 28, 2023, BHC directly or indirectly held 310,449,643 common shares of Bausch + Lomb, which represented approximately 88.5% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Bausch + Lomb. Additionally, there have been no sales made to related parties for all periods presented. Allocated Centralized Costs Prior to May 10, 2022 Prior to May 10, 2022, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a standalone basis and were derived from the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accounting records of BHC. BHC incurred significant corporate costs for services it provided to Bausch + Lomb, as well as to other BHC businesses. The allocated corporate and shared costs to Bausch + Lomb for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $0 and $76 million, respectively. The allocated corporate and shared costs to Bausch + Lomb are included in Cost of goods sold (excluding amortization and impairments of intangible assets), Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") and Research and development in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. All such amounts have been deemed to have been incurred and settled by Bausch + Lomb in the period in which the costs were recorded and are included in Additional paid-in capital during the six months ended June 30, 2022. In the opinion of management of BHC and Bausch + Lomb, the expense and cost allocations have been determined on a basis considered to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided or the benefit received by Bausch + Lomb during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The amounts that would have been, or will be, incurred on a standalone basis could differ from the amounts allocated due to economies of scale, difference in management judgment, a requirement for more or fewer employees or other factors. In addition, the future results of operations, financial position and cash flows could differ materially from the historical results presented herein. Accounts Receivable and Payable Certain related party transactions between Bausch + Lomb and BHC have been included in Additional paid-in capital during the six months ended June 30, 2022 when the related party transactions were not settled in cash. Certain transactions between Bausch + Lomb and BHC and affiliate businesses are cash-settled on a current basis and, therefore, are reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts payable to BHC and its affiliates related to related party transactions were $39 million and $53 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and are included within Accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts due from BHC and its affiliates related to related party transactions were $91 million and $102 million as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which $79 million and $90 million are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets and $12 million and $12 million are included within Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These amounts are inclusive of the receivables and payables associated with the separation agreements entered into in connection with the B+L IPO, as discussed below. BHC Pooled Financing Arrangements Prior to the B+L IPO, certain legal entities comprising Bausch + Lomb participated in BHC pooled financing arrangements, which allowed for individual legal entities participating in the arrangements to borrow from the sponsoring bank. Total borrowings by the BHC pool participants were limited to the aggregate cash maintained in accounts held by the sponsoring bank. Net borrowings under BHC pooled financing arrangements from legal entities comprising Bausch + Lomb were $0 as of December 31, 2022. BHC held a net positive cash balance in this pool, as these borrowings were more than offset by cash held by other BHC owned legal entities, including legal entities which have commingled Bausch + Lomb and non-Bausch + Lomb activities. Cash from these commingled legal entities has generally not been included in Bausch + Lomb’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as such cash is not specifically identifiable to Bausch + Lomb. These borrowings are presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within Accrued and other current liabilities and in the Cash Flows From Financing Activities section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as Net borrowings under BHC pooled financing arrangements. Interest incurred on such borrowings were not material for any period presented. Net Transfers to BHC The total effect of the settlement of related party transactions is reflected as a financing activity in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The components of the Net transfers to BHC for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

Repayment of BHC Purchase Debt and Return of Capital On January 1, 2022, in anticipation of the B+L IPO, Bausch + Lomb issued a $2,200 million promissory note to BHC (the “BHC Purchase Debt”) in conjunction with a legal reorganization. The BHC Purchase Debt had an original maturity of two years and; interest at the rate of 3.625% per annum. On May 1, 2022, the Company entered into an addendum to amend the interest rate of the BHC Purchase Debt to a rate of 6.000% per annum. The cumulative catch-up for this amendment to the interest rate was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as part of Interest expense, during the three months ended June 30, 2022. On May 10, 2022, Bausch + Lomb made payments to BHC of: (i) $2,200 million in full satisfaction of the BHC Purchase Debt and (ii) $229 million in return of capital using the proceeds from the Term Facility (as defined in Note 10, “CREDIT FACILITIES”) and cash on hand. Included in Interest expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $47 million of interest attributed to the BHC Purchase Debt. Separation Agreement with BHC In connection with the completion of the B+L IPO, the Company entered into the MSA, that, together with the other agreements summarized herein, govern the relationship between BHC and the Company following the completion of the B+L IPO. Other agreements that the Company entered into with BHC that govern aspects of Bausch + Lomb’s relationship with BHC following the B+L IPO include: •Transition Services Agreement - In connection with the completion of the B+L IPO, Bausch + Lomb has entered into the TSA with BHC to provide each other, on a transitional basis, certain administrative, human resources, treasury and support services and other assistance, for a limited time to help ensure an orderly transition following the B+L IPO. The TSA specifies the calculation of Bausch + Lomb costs and receipts for these services. Under the TSA, Bausch + Lomb has received certain services from BHC, including information technology services, technical and engineering support, application support for operations, legal, payroll, finance, tax and accounting, general administrative services and other support services, and has also provided certain similar services to BHC. Individual services provided under the TSA have been scheduled for a specific period, generally ranging from six to twelve months, depending on the nature of the services. As of the date of this filing, a number of these transitional services have either expired or been terminated; however, certain transitional services are still being provided by the parties. •Tax Matters Agreement - In connection with the completion of the B+L IPO, Bausch + Lomb has entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with BHC that governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings and other matters regarding taxes following the B+L IPO. •Employee Matters Agreement - In connection with the completion of the B+L IPO, Bausch + Lomb has entered into an Employee Matters Agreement with BHC that governs, among other things, the allocation of employee-related liabilities, the mechanics for the transfer of Bausch + Lomb employees, the treatment of outstanding equity awards and the treatment of Bausch + Lomb employees’ participation in BHC’s retirement and health and welfare plans. In addition to the previously discussed agreements, Bausch + Lomb has entered into certain other agreements with BHC including, but not limited to, the Intellectual Property Matters Agreement and the Real Estate Matters Agreement that provide a framework for the ongoing relationship with BHC. Charges incurred related to the above agreements were $1 million and $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and are primarily reflected within SG&A in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
