Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. General

The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements of the Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the requirements of Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01 for financial statements required to be filed as a part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Unless the context requires otherwise, terms "the Company", "we", "us", and "our" are used to refer collectively to the Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and related notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Cooper Companies, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) and related notes as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) and accruals necessary in the judgment of management for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Readers should not assume that the results reported here either indicate or guarantee future performance.

Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2021.

Estimates

The World Health Organization categorized the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a severe global health crisis, along with economic and societal disruptions and uncertainties, which have negatively impacted business and healthcare activity globally. As a result of healthcare systems responding to the demands of managing the pandemic, governments around the world imposing measures designed to reduce the transmission of the COVID-19 virus, and individuals responding to the concerns of contracting the COVID-19 virus, many optical practitioners & retailers, hospitals, medical offices and fertility clinics closed their facilities, restricted access, or delayed or canceled patient visits, exams and elective medical procedures, and many customers that have reopened are experiencing reduced patient visits. These factors have had, and in the future may continue to have, an adverse effect on our sales, operating results and cash flows.

The preparation of Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates particularly as it relates to estimates reliant on forecasts and other assumptions reasonably available to the Company and the uncertain future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions impact our business and financial results will depend on future developments including, but not limited to, the continued spread, duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic; the occurrence, spread, duration and severity of any subsequent wave or waves of outbreaks, including the emergence and spread of variants of the COVID-19 virus; the actions taken by the U.S. and foreign governments to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, address its impact or respond to the reduction in global and local economic activity; the occurrence, duration and severity of a global, regional or national recession, depression or other sustained adverse market event; the impact of the developments described above on our customers and suppliers; and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to:

allowance for doubtful accounts and credit losses
the carrying value of inventory
the carrying value of goodwill and other long-lived assets

There was not a material impact to the above estimates in the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for the three months ended January 31, 2022. The Company continually monitors and evaluates the estimates used as additional information becomes available. Adjustments will be made to these provisions periodically to reflect new facts and circumstances that may indicate that historical experience may not be indicative of current and/or future results. The Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in material

changes to the estimates and material impacts to the Company’s Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in future reporting periods.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on November 1, 2021, and it did not have an impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). This update amends the guidance on convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity and improves and amends the related EPS guidance for both Subtopics. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted this guidance on November 1, 2021, and it did not have an impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This update requires that an acquirer recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the standard. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company early adopted this guidance on November 1, 2021 and has applied the guidance to the business combinations entered into during fiscal 2022. Refer to Note 2. Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale for further information.

Accounting Pronouncements Issued Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and subsequent amendment to the initial guidance: ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope (collectively, “Topic 848”). Topic 848 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance generally can be applied from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing the impacts of the practical expedients provided in Topic 848 and which, if any, the Company will adopt.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. This update requires annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for by applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2021-10 on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale

The following is a summary of the allocation of the total purchase consideration for business and asset acquisitions that the Company completed during the three months ended January 31, 2022 and fiscal 2021:


(In millions)	January 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
Technology	$	1.8	$	178.6
In-Process Research & Development (IPR&D)	—		20.0
Customer relationships	472.0		7.5
Trademarks	142.0		1.3
Other	—		0.6
Total identifiable intangible assets	$	615.8	$	208.0
Goodwill	1,288.2		91.6
Net tangible liabilities	(238.3)		(10.8)
Fair value of contingent consideration	—		(39.1)
Total closing purchase price	$	1,665.7	$	249.7

All acquisitions were funded by cash generated from operations or facility borrowings.

For business acquisitions, the Company recorded tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the applicable date of acquisition. For asset acquisitions, the Company recorded tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated and relative fair values as of the applicable date of acquisition.

The Company believes these acquisitions strengthen CooperSurgical's and CooperVision's businesses through the addition of new distributors or complementary products and services.

Fiscal Year 2022

Generate Life Sciences®

On December 17, 2021, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests in Generate Life Sciences (Generate), a privately held leading provider of donor egg and sperm for fertility treatments, fertility cryopreservation services and newborn stem cell storage (cord blood & cord tissue), and paid an aggregate consideration of approximately $1.666 billion in cash, reflecting working capital and other adjustments. The cash consideration was funded through a combination of $1.5 billion in proceeds from the issuance of a senior unsecured term loan and available cash on hand.

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Company has accounted for the acquisition of Generate as a business combination, in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The following table summarizes the provisional fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date:


(In millions)
Current assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	58.6
Trade accounts receivable, net	23.3
Inventories	4.0
Prepaid expense and other current assets	29.9
Total current assets	115.8
Property, plant and equipment	25.1
Operating lease right-of-use assets	21.4
Goodwill	1,292.6
Customer relationships	472.0
Trademarks	142.0
Deferred tax assets	15.8
Other assets	0.8
Total assets acquired	$	2,085.5

Current liabilities:
Accounts payable	$	12.6
Employee compensation and benefits	12.3
Operating lease liabilities	2.5
Deferred revenue	68.4
Other current liabilities	8.8
Total current liabilities	104.6
Deferred tax liabilities	134.4
Operating lease liabilities	18.8
Deferred revenue	160.9
Other liabilities	1.1
Total liabilities assumed	$	419.8

Total purchase price	$	1,665.7

To develop the provisional fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company utilized currently available information and fair value allocation benchmarks from similar completed transactions. Deferred revenue was recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as a result of the adoption of ASU 2021-08. See Note 1. General for additional information. The initial purchase accounting is incomplete and subject to change during the measurement period, which may result in material changes to the purchase price allocation. The Company is in the process of finalizing information primarily related to the valuation of intangible assets, the measurement of deferred revenue, the associated deferred tax adjustments and the corresponding impact on goodwill.

The Company currently estimates that customer relationships will be amortized over 13 years and trademarks will be amortized over 14 years. Goodwill is primarily attributable to assembled workforce and expected synergies to be achieved. The goodwill recognized is not deductible for tax purposes.

The transaction costs associated with the acquisition consisted primarily of legal, regulatory and financial advisory fees, which were expensed as incurred as selling, general and administrative expense.

Generate's revenue and net income for the period from the acquisition date to January 31, 2022 were $33.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively. The following unaudited pro forma information summarizes the combined results of operations of the Company and Generate as if the acquisition had been completed at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2021:


Three Months Ended January 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Revenue	$	823.4	$	744.8
Net income	$	79.9	$	2,111.5

The unaudited pro forma information for the first three months of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was calculated after applying the Company's accounting policies and the impact of acquisition date fair value adjustments. The adjustments primarily include increased amortization for the fair value of acquired intangible assets, increased revenue as a result of the ASU 2021-08 deferred revenue adjustments, decreased interest expense as a result of the reversal of Generate's historical interest expense partially offset by additional interest expense on the debt obtained to finance the transaction.

The pro forma information does not reflect the effect of costs or synergies that would have been expected to result from the integration of the acquisition. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of fiscal 2021, or of future results of the consolidated entities.

Subsequent Events

On February 7, 2022, subsequent to the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2022, CooperSurgical entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire Cook Medical's Reproductive Health business, a manufacturer of minimally invasive medical devices focused on the fertility, obstetrics and gynecology markets. The aggregate consideration is $875.0 million in cash, with $675.0 million payable at the closing and the remaining $200.0 million payable in $50.0 million installments following each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the closing. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including entry into a definitive acquisition agreement and regulatory approvals, and compliance with certain local employee consultation requirements. See Note 15. Subsequent Events for additional information.

Fiscal Year 2021

On May 3, 2021, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of a privately-held medical device company that develops single-use illuminating medical devices. The purchase price allocation is preliminary, and the Company is in the process of finalizing information primarily related to the valuation of intangible assets and inventory, the associated deferred tax adjustments and the corresponding impact on goodwill.

On April 26, 2021, CooperVision completed the acquisition of a privately-held UK contact lens manufacturer focusing on specialty contact lenses. This acquisition expands CooperVision's specialty eye care portfolio and accelerates its development of myopia management solutions in the UK.

On March 1, 2021, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of a privately-held medical device company that designed and developed an innovative obstetric product for use in urgent obstetrics to reduce risks associated with childbirth.

On February 1, 2021, CooperSurgical acquired all of the remaining equity interests of a privately-held medical device company that developed the Mara® Water Vapor Ablation System, which is used for endometrial ablation. The Company accounted for this acquisition as an asset acquisition, whereby the Company allocated the total cost of the acquisition to the net assets acquired on the basis of their estimated relative fair values on the acquisition date with no goodwill recognized. The primary asset acquired in this asset acquisition is Technology.

On January 19, 2021, CooperVision acquired all of the remaining equity interests of a privately-held medical device company that develops spectacle lenses for myopia management. The fair value remeasurement of our previous equity investment immediately before the acquisition resulted in a gain of $11.5 million, which was recorded in other income. The terms of the acquisition include upfront cash consideration paid at closing of approximately $40.9 million attributable to the equity interests not held by the Company on the closing date. The transaction also includes potential payments of future consideration that are contingent upon the achievement of the regulatory approval milestone (the regulatory approval payment) and the acquired business reaching certain revenue thresholds over a specified period (the revenue payments). The

undiscounted range of the contingent consideration is zero to $139.1 million payable to the other former equity interest owners.

The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date was approximately $37.9 million, and, accordingly, the Company recorded a liability of approximately $30.2 million, which represents the fair value of the contingent consideration payable to the other former equity interest owners. The fair value of the regulatory approval payment was determined using an option pricing framework based on the expected payment under the contractual terms and the estimates of the probability of achieving the regulatory approval. The fair value of the revenue payments was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation based on the revenue projections and the expected payment for each simulation.

In fiscal 2021, a $56.8 million expense was recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, resulting from the increase in fair value of the contingent consideration. This was primarily driven by increases in revenue projections, which increased the estimated fair value of the revenue payments.

During the three months ended January 31, 2022, a $3.5 million expense was recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, resulting from the increase in fair value of the regulatory approval payment. As of January 31, 2022, no contingent consideration has been paid.

On December 31, 2020, CooperSurgical completed the acquisition of a privately-held in vitro fertilization (IVF) cryo-storage software solutions company.

The pro forma results of operations of these acquisitions have not been presented because the effect of the business combinations described above was not material to the consolidated results of operations.

Contingent Consideration

Certain of the Company’s business combinations involve potential payments of future consideration that are contingent upon the achievement of regulatory milestones and/or the acquired business reaching certain revenue thresholds. A liability is recorded for the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date. The fair value of the contingent consideration is remeasured at each reporting period, and the change in fair value is recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of contingent consideration:


Three Months Ended January 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021

Assets Held for Sale

Note 6. Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rates for the three months ended January 31, 2022 and January 31, 2021 were 21.8% and (1,406.3)%, respectively. The increase was primarily due to an intra-group transfer of intellectual property during the three months ended January 31, 2021, as discussed below.

In November 2020, the Company completed an intra-group transfer of certain intellectual property and related assets of CooperVision to a UK subsidiary as part of a group restructuring to establish headquarters operations in the UK. Determining fair value involved significant judgment related to future revenue growth, operating margins and discount rates. The transfer resulted in a step-up of the UK tax-deductible basis in the intellectual property and goodwill, creating a temporary difference between the book basis and the tax basis of these assets. As a result, the Company recognized a deferred tax asset of $1,987.9 million, with a corresponding income tax benefit, during the three months ended January 31, 2021.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. An asset’s or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value are valued and disclosed in one of the following three levels of the valuation hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

At January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expense and other current assets, lines of credit, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of such instruments and the ability to obtain financing on similar terms.

The carrying value of the Company's revolving credit facility and term loans approximates fair value based on current market rates (Level 2). On April 6, 2020 the Company entered into six interest rate swap contracts which are used to hedge its exposure to changes in cash flows associated with its variable rate debt and are designated as derivatives in a cash flow hedge. The payment streams are based on a total notional amount of $1.5 billion at the inception of the contracts. The interest rate swap contracts had maturities of seven years or less. As of January 31, 2022, three of the six interest rate swap contracts have matured, and the outstanding contracts have a total notional amount of $1.0 billion.

The gain or loss on the derivatives is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts is measured on a recurring basis by netting the discounted future fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The interest rate swap contracts were categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the inputs to the derivative pricing model are generally observable and do not contain a high level of subjectivity. Refer to Note 14. Financial Derivatives and Hedging for further information.

The Company did not have any cross currency swaps or foreign currency forward contracts as of January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021.

The fair value of the Company's contingent consideration for which a liability is recorded is measured on a recurring basis as a Level 3 measurement, and the change in fair value is recognized in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Refer to Note 2. Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale for further information.

Nonrecurring fair value measurements

The Company uses fair value measures when determining assets and liabilities acquired in an acquisition as described in Note 2. Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale which are considered a Level 3 measurement.

Note 11. Employee Benefits

The Company's Retirement Income Plan (the Plan), a defined benefit plan, covers substantially all full-time United States employees. The Company's contributions are designed to fund normal cost on a current basis and to fund the estimated prior service cost of benefit improvements. The unit credit actuarial cost method is used to determine the annual cost. The Company pays the entire cost of the Plan and funds such costs as they accrue. Virtually all of the assets of the Plan are comprised of equities and participation in equity and fixed income funds.

The Company did not contribute to the Plan during the first three months of fiscal 2022, and the Company is uncertain of the amount it will contribute during the remainder of the year. The Company did not contribute to the Plan in the first three months of fiscal 2021. The expected rate of return on Plan assets for determining net periodic benefit plan cost is 8%.

Note 12. Contingencies

The Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims and other legal matters from time to time that arise in the ordinary course of conducting business, including matters involving our products, intellectual property, supplier relationships, distributors, competitor relationships, employees and other matters. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings or claims pending against it could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. At each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

Note 13. Business Segment Information

The Company discloses information about its operating segments, which were established based on the way that management organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. The Company's two operating segments are described below.

*•*CooperVision. Competes in the worldwide contact lens market by developing, manufacturing and marketing a broad range of products for contact lens wearers, featuring advanced materials and optics. CooperVision designs its products to solve vision challenges such as astigmatism, presbyopia, myopia, ocular dryness and eye fatigues, with a broad collection of spherical, toric and multifocal contact lenses.

*•*CooperSurgical. Competes in the general health care market with a focus on advancing the health of women, babies and families through a diversified portfolio of products and services focusing on women's health and fertility.

The Company uses operating income, as presented in our financial reports, as the primary measure of segment profitability. The Company does not allocate costs from corporate functions to segment operating income. Items below operating income are not considered when measuring the profitability of a segment. The Company uses the same accounting policies to generate segment results as the Company does for consolidated results.

Total identifiable assets are those used in continuing operations except cash and cash equivalents, which the Company includes as corporate assets.

As part of the Company’s overall risk management practices the Company enters into financial derivatives, interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges, to hedge the Company's exposure to changes in cash flows associated with its variable rate debt.

The Company records all derivatives on its Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. All of the Company's derivatives have satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting.

The gain or loss on derivative instruments designated and qualifying for cash flow hedge accounting is deferred in other comprehensive income. The changes in fair value for all trades that are not designated for hedge accounting are recognized in current period earnings. Deferred gains or losses from designated cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged interest expense affects earnings. The effectiveness of cash flow hedges is assessed at inception and quarterly thereafter. The Company does not offset fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments in its Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets for presentation purposes.

Credit risk related to derivative transactions reflects the risk that a party to the transaction could fail to meet its obligation under the derivative contracts. Therefore, the Company’s exposure to the counterparty’s credit risk is generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparty’s obligations to the Company exceed the Company’s obligations to the counterparty. The Company’s policy is to enter into contracts only with financial institutions which meet certain minimum credit ratings to help mitigate counterparty credit risk.

As of January 31, 2022 and October 31, 2021, the Company had the following outstanding derivatives designated as hedging instruments:


(In millions, except for number of instruments)			Number of Instruments						Notional Value
Interest Rate Swap Contracts			3						$	1,000

These contracts have remaining maturities of six years or less.

The pre-tax impact of gain on derivatives designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) was $34.8 million ($26.4 million, net of tax) as of January 31, 2022. The pre-tax impact of loss on derivatives designated for hedge accounting recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) was $11.2 million ($8.5 million, net of tax) as of January 31, 2021.

The following table summarizes the fair values of derivative instruments as of the periods indicated and the line items in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets where the instruments are recorded:


	Derivative Assets
(In millions)			January 31, 2022		October 31, 2021
Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges		Balance sheet location
Interest rate swap contracts		Other non-current assets	$	34.8	$	17.2

The following table summarizes the amounts recognized with respect to our derivative instruments within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income:


Three Months Ended January 31,
(In millions)		2022		2021
Derivatives designated as cash flow hedges	Location of Loss Recognized on Derivatives

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

In this section, we discuss the results of our operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 ended January 31, 2022 and compare them with the same period of fiscal 2021. We discuss our cash flows and current financial condition under “Capital Resources and Liquidity.” Within the tables presented, percentages are calculated based on the underlying whole-dollar amounts and, therefore, may not recalculate exactly from the rounded numbers used for disclosure purposes.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The succeeding sections of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) may include certain financial measures that are not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). These measures, which are referred to as non-GAAP measures, are listed below:

Free Cash Flow - Free cash flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
Constant currency - Constant currency is defined as excluding the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.

For a discussion of these measures and the reasons management believes they are useful to investors, refer to “Summary of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below. To the extent applicable, this MD&A includes reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies, and therefore, may not be comparable among companies.

COVID-19 Considerations

The World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a severe global health crisis, along with economic and societal disruptions and uncertainties, which have negatively impacted business and healthcare activity globally. As a result of healthcare systems responding to the demands of managing the pandemic, governments around the world imposing measures designed to reduce the transmission of the COVID-19 virus, and individuals responding to the concerns of contracting the COVID-19 virus, many optical practitioners and retailers, hospitals, medical offices and fertility clinics closed their facilities, restricted access, or delayed or canceled patient visits, exams and elective medical procedures, and many customers that have reopened are experiencing reduced patient visits. These factors have had, and in the future may continue to have, an adverse effect on our sales, operating results and cash flows.

We have taken an active role in addressing the ongoing pandemic’s impact on our employees, suppliers, distribution channels, operations and customers, including taking precautionary measures, such as implementing contingency plans, and making operational adjustments as necessary. We have taken measures to help ensure the safety of our personnel in all our facilities, and we have endeavored and continue to follow recommended actions of government and health authorities to protect our employees worldwide.

As of the date of this filing, we have not experienced any significant disruption at our manufacturing facilities. We have had no significant disruption in our access to necessary raw materials and other supplies or with our distribution network; however, we have experienced higher unabsorbed fixed overhead costs, labor inefficiencies, higher cost of production and higher freight charges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our manufacturing and distribution operations have responded to the impacts related to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have been able to continue to supply our products around the world without interruption. In the future, we may decide or need to implement additional precautionary measures or operational adjustments as we deem prudent to meet consumer demand or to help further ensure employee safety. We believe that the actions we are taking have enabled us to keep our employees safe and our supply chain intact and will help us emerge from this global pandemic operationally sound and well positioned for long-term growth.

The extent to which the global COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions impact our business, results of operations, cash flow and financial condition will depend on future developments. At this time, future developments are highly uncertain, difficult to predict and largely outside of our control. These include, but are not limited to, the spread, duration and severity of the pandemic outbreak and any subsequent waves of additional outbreaks, including the emergence

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

and spread of variants of the COVID-19 virus, actions taken by governments to contain the pandemic, address its impact or respond to the reduction in global and local economic activity, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. We will continue to closely monitor the developments relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses from governments and private sector participants and their respective impact on our Company and on our customers, suppliers, vendors and business partners.

For more information on the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, refer to Part II, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" herein.

First Quarter Highlights

Gross profit of $518.4 million, up 15% from $450.7 million in the prior year period
Operating income of $130.8 million, down 2% from $133.4 million in the prior year period
Diluted earnings per share of $1.91, down 95% from $42.31 per share in the prior year period, primarily due to the income tax benefit related to an intra-group transfer of intellectual property in the prior year period. Refer to Note 6. Income Taxes for further information.
Cash provided by operations of $166.0 million, compared to $147.7 million in the prior year period

Outlook

Overall, we remain optimistic about the long-term prospects for the worldwide contact lens and general health care markets. However, the impact, risks and uncertainty relating to the global COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions, as further described in the “COVID-19 Considerations” section above and in the “Risk Factors” section in Part II, Item 1A of this filing, have adversely affected our sales, cash flow and current performance and are likely to further adversely affect our future sales, cash flow and performance. Additionally, other events affecting the economy as a whole, including but not limited to the uncertainty and instability of global markets driven by foreign currency volatility, inflation, changes in tax laws, debt concerns, the uncertainty following the UK's withdrawal from the EU, changes to existing and new regulations, global trade barriers including additional tariffs and the trend of consolidations within the health care industry could impact our current performance and continue to represent a risk to our future performance.

CooperVision - We compete in the worldwide contact lens market with our spherical, toric, multifocal, toric multifocal and myopia management contact lenses offered in a variety of materials including using silicone hydrogel Aquaform® technology, PC Technology™ and ActivControl® technology. We believe that there will be lower contact lens wearer dropout rates as technology improves and enhances the wearing experience through a combination of improved designs and materials and the growth of preferred modalities such as single-use and monthly wearing options. CooperVision also competes in the myopia management and specialty eye care markets with products such as orthokeratology (ortho-k) and scleral lenses. In November 2019, CooperVision received United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval for

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

and Results of Operations

its MiSight® 1 day lens, which is the first and only FDA-approved product indicated to slow the progression of myopia in children with treatment initiated between the ages of 8-12 and became available in the United States during fiscal 2020. In August 2021, CooperVision received Chinese National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) approval for its MiSight 1 day lens for use in China. CooperVision is focused on greater worldwide market penetration using recently introduced products, and we continue to expand our presence in existing and emerging markets, including through acquisitions.

CooperVision acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2021:

A privately-held medical device company on January 19, 2021

Our ability to compete successfully with a full range of silicone hydrogel products is an important factor to achieving our desired future levels of sales growth and profitability. CooperVision manufactures and markets a wide variety of silicone hydrogel contact lenses. Our single-use silicone hydrogel product franchises, clariti® and MyDay®, remain a focus as we expect increasing demand for these products as well as future single-use products as the global contact lens market continues to shift to this modality. Outside of single-use, the Biofinity® and Avaira Vitality® product families comprise our focus in the FRP, or frequent replacement product, market which encompasses the 2-week and monthly modalities. Included in this segment are unique products such as Biofinity Energys®, which helps individuals with digital eye fatigue.

CooperSurgical - Our CooperSurgical business competes in the general health care market with a commitment to advancing the health of women, babies and families through its diversified portfolio of products and services focusing on women's health and fertility. CooperSurgical has established its market presence and distribution system by developing products and acquiring companies, products and services that complement its business model.

CooperSurgical acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2022:

Generate Life Sciences (Generate), a privately held leading provider of donor egg and sperm for fertility treatments, fertility cryopreservation services and newborn stem cell storage (cord blood & cord tissue), on December 17, 2021

CooperSurgical acquired the following entity during the three months ended January 31, 2021:

A privately-held in vitro fertilization (IVF) cryo-storage software solutions company on December 31, 2020

On February 7, 2022, subsequent to the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2022, CooperSurgical entered into a binding letter of intent to acquire the Reproductive Health business of Cook Medical, a manufacturer of minimally invasive medical devices focused on the fertility, obstetrics and gynecology markets. The aggregate consideration is $875.0 million in cash, with $675.0 million payable at the closing and the remaining $200.0 million payable in $50.0 million installments following each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the closing. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including entry into a definitive acquisition agreement and regulatory approvals, and compliance with certain local employee consultation requirements. See Note 15. Subsequent Events of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.

Capital Resources - At January 31, 2022, we had $280.7 million in unrestricted cash, primarily held in the United States, and $1,288.6 million available under our 2020 Revolving Credit Facility. The $1.5 billion term loan entered into on December 17, 2021, the $840.0 million term loan entered into on November 2, 2021, and the $850.0 million term loan entered into on April 1, 2020 remain outstanding as of January 31, 2022.

See Note 5. Debt of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.

Assets Held for Sale

On February 2, 2021, CooperVision entered into a stock purchase agreement to sell 50% of the equity interest in a wholly-owned subsidiary that was acquired by CooperVision on January 19, 2021. The closing of this transaction is subject to certain closing conditions including required regulatory approvals. We intend to operate the previously wholly-owned subsidiary as a joint venture with the purchaser of the 50% interest once the transaction is closed. We concluded the substantive terms of the joint venture during the third quarter of fiscal 2021, and as of July 31, 2021, the assets and liabilities of this disposal group were reclassified as held for sale. On August 1, 2021, CooperVision entered into a stockholders agreement, which outlines the terms regarding the operation and management of the joint venture. As of January 31, 2022,

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

we were in the process of finalizing the joint venture related ancillary agreements, and the disposal group continues to be classified as held for sale. We did not record any impairment during the three months ended January 31, 2022 and fiscal 2021, and this disposal did not qualify as a discontinued operation.

See Note 2. Acquisitions and Assets Held for Sale of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional information.

Transition from LIBOR

The UK’s Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), announced in July 2017 that it will no longer persuade or require banks to submit rates for LIBOR after 2021. In March 2021, the FCA confirmed its intention to stop requiring banks to submit rates required to calculate LIBOR after 2021. However, for U.S. dollar-denominated (USD) LIBOR, only one-week and two-month USD LIBOR will cease to be published after 2021, and all remaining USD LIBOR tenors will continue being published until June 2023. Further, in March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. We have material contracts that are indexed to LIBOR and are continuing to monitor this activity and evaluate the related risk. We are continuing to evaluate the scope of impacted contracts and the potential impact. We are also monitoring the developments regarding alternative rates and may amend certain contracts to accommodate those rates if the contract does not already specify a replacement rate. While the notional value of agreements potentially indexed to LIBOR is material, we do not expect a material impact on our financial statements related to this transition.

THE COOPER COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

and Results of Operations

Sales growth was primarily driven by an increase in the volume of lenses sold across our core portfolio due to a recovery in demand from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Average realized prices by product did not materially influence sales growth.
We expect to continue seeing downward pressure and volatility in certain markets related to net sales if the COVID-19 pandemic continues, as optical retailers and healthcare centers continue to restrict access, and social distancing measures continue.

CooperVision Net Sales by Geography

CooperVision competes in the worldwide soft contact lens market and services in three primary regions: the Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and Asia Pacific.

	$	225.7	$	173.5	30	%

In the three months ended January 31, 2022:

Office and surgical products increased compared to the prior year period mainly due to sales from the recently acquired stem cell services of Generate and sales from the acquired products, Illuminate and Fetal Pillow®. Further, there was an increase from other office and surgical products such as closure and neonatal products.
Fertility net sales increased compared to the prior year period mainly due to an increase in revenue from fertility consumables, equipment sales and preimplantation genetic testing and sales from the recently acquired fertility services of Generate.
Foreign exchange rates negatively impacted sales by approximately $4.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, compared to a positive impact of $1.0 million in the prior year period. In the first quarter of fiscal 2022, net sales increased by 33% in constant currency over the prior year period.
Sales growth was primarily driven by stronger demand for our products and services as a result of our customers continuing to reopen their health care facilities and medical offices.
We expect to continue seeing downward pressure and volatility in certain markets related to net sales if the COVID-19 pandemic continues, as hospitals and healthcare centers continue to restrict access, and social distancing measures continue.
