*Russia Ukraine Conflict*

New in FY2022

In February 2022, Russian forces invaded Ukraine (“Russia Ukraine Conflict”) resulting in broad economic sanctions being imposed on Russia.

New in FY2022

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company exited business operations in Russia, other than for ASP’s sterilization products, which are exempt from international sanctions as humanitarian products.

New in FY2022

Our business in Russia and Ukraine accounted for less than 1.0% of total revenue and less than 0.2% of total assets for the year ended December 31, 2021.

New in FY2022

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded pre-tax charges of $17.9 million, primarily relating to the write-off of net assets, the write-off of the cumulative translation adjustment in earnings for legal entities deemed substantially liquidated, and to record provisions for employee severance and legal contingencies.

New in FY2022

These costs are identified as the “Russia exit and wind down costs” in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

adjustments, less the amount of sales attributable to certain divested businesses or product lines not considered discontinued operations prior to the first anniversary of the divestiture.

New in FY2022

We experienced robust demand for our products and service during 2022 and despite challenging macroeconomic conditions and global supply chain constraints, aggregate year-over-year sales increased 10.9%, with contributions from both existing and newly acquired businesses, all partially offset by unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates.

New in FY2022

Year-over-year sales from existing businesses increased 10.1%, reflecting strong end-market demand for our offerings as well as focused execution on product and service delivery, and favorable pricing.

New in FY2022

Geographically, year-over-year sales from existing businesses in developed markets increased low double-digits, with low double-digit growth in both North America and Western Europe, respectively.

New in FY2022

Year-over-year sales from existing businesses in high growth markets increased low double-digits driven by low twenties growth in Latin America and low double-digit growth in China.

New in FY2022

During 2022, price increases exceeded inflationary increases that we experienced on purchased materials.

New in FY2022

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies reduced our sales by 3.1% during 2022, as compared to 2021 and may continue to impact our results in future periods.

New in FY2022

Widespread supply chain challenges and inflationary pressures persisted throughout the year resulting in higher costs in each of our three segments.

New in FY2022

We continue to apply FBS to help mitigate the impact of these challenges and to serve our customers.

New in FY2022

The COVID-19 pandemic, including the mitigation efforts and the accelerated spread of the virus in China, continues to adversely impact our results and creates operating challenges with logistics, material availability and absenteeism.

New in FY2022

We anticipate that the disruptions caused by the pandemic will continue to impact future periods.

New in FY2022

*2023 Outlook*

New in FY2022

Despite an evolving macro environment and continued geopolitical conflict, we anticipate increasing demand for our offerings will continue and are projecting full year sales to grow on a year-over-year basis by approximately 2.0%-4.5% with year-over-year growth from existing businesses of approximately 3.0%-5.5%.

New in FY2022

We expect that foreign exchange rates will remain volatile in 2023 and could create unfavorable results relative to foreign exchange rates in 2022.

New in FY2022

Additionally, this outlook is subject to various assumptions and risks, including but not limited to the resilience and durability of the economies of the United States and other critical regions, ongoing challenges with global logistics and supply chains including the availability of electronic components, inflationary pressures, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the impact of the Russia Ukraine Conflict, market conditions in key end product segments, elective surgery rates, and the impact of energy disruption in Europe.

New in FY2022

In addition, we expect to execute discrete restructuring plans as well as our general, cost-saving measures to prepare for, and respond to, any material adverse global economic trends that may develop.

New in FY2022

New in FY2022

We continue to monitor the macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions which may impact our business, including spread of the COVID-19 virus, continued geopolitical conflict, global inflation, potential adverse global economic trends and sentiments, monetary and fiscal policies, international trade and relations between the U.S., China and other nations, and investment and taxation policy initiatives being considered in the United States and by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”).

*Therapy Physics Divestiture*

New in FY2022

On September 30, 2022, we completed the sale of our Therapy Physics product line, which was reported in our Advanced Healthcare Solutions segment, to an unrelated third party for cash consideration of $9.6 million.

New in FY2022

As a result of the sale, during the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a net realized pre-tax gain totaling $0.5 million, net of transaction costs, which is recorded as “Other non-operating expense, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

New in FY2022

The divested business accounted for less than 1.0% of total revenue and less than 0.3% of total assets for the year ended December 31, 2021.

New in FY2022

The divestiture of this product line did not represent a strategic shift with a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and therefore the divested product line is not reported as a discontinued operation.

Dropped from FY2021

Overall demand for our products and services accelerated during 2021, with aggregate year-over-year sales increasing by 13.4%.

Dropped from FY2021

The increase was largely driven by demand from our existing businesses, which increased by 9.5% on broad-based momentum and focused execution across our portfolio, most notably within our short-cycle industrial and software as a service (“SaaS”) businesses.

Dropped from FY2021

During 2021, widespread supply chain challenges emerged due to labor, raw material, and component shortages, as well as logistics issues, across multiple industries, resulting in increased material and shipping costs.

Dropped from FY2021

We worked to mitigate the impact of the supply chain challenges by implementing solutions to support near-term operations, executing on countermeasures for material shortages, and managing production, all of which contributed to year-over-year revenue growth and margin expansion in 2021.

Dropped from FY2021

However, due to the magnitude of the supply chain and logistics issues impacting the economy broadly and those related to electronic components in particular, demand for our products outpaced our ability to supply, and our backlog grew in the second half of 2021.

Dropped from FY2021

COVID-19 continues to have an impact on our business and results.

Dropped from FY2021

In 2020, we experienced significant declines in demand as a result of broad disruption in the global economy.

Dropped from FY2021

In 2021, we experienced a rebound of demand but also encountered operating challenges related to logistics, material availability and higher levels of absenteeism.

Dropped from FY2021

We expect that the pandemic and its impact on global commerce will remain uncertain and we will continue to deploy FBS to countermeasure the challenges we encounter.

Dropped from FY2021

We anticipate the strong demand for our products and services will continue into 2022 with year-over-year revenue expected to increase between 9.0% and 12.0% for the full year, including growth from existing businesses of between 5.5% and 8.5% on anticipated strong demand in key end markets and continued deployment of FBS to drive share gains and innovation.

Dropped from FY2021

This outlook is subject to various assumptions and risks, including but not limited to, the magnitude of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on macroeconomic conditions, continued strength of key end markets, elective surgery rates, the availability of electronic components, our ability to convert backlog, sustain our workforce levels and maintain manufacturing capacity.

Dropped from FY2021

We anticipate that supply chain and inflationary pressures will persist throughout 2022 and that although our backlog may decline compared to 2021, it may remain elevated compared to historical levels.

Dropped from FY2021

We are monitoring the risks of new COVID-19 variants which may be more contagious or severe, or less responsive to treatment and vaccines, and may impact the rate that virus control measures ease or become more restrictive, which could impact our future results.

Dropped from FY2021

We are monitoring matters of international trade, monetary and fiscal policies, relations between the U.S. and China, as well as evaluating the impacts of proposed legislation and various investment and taxation policy initiatives being debated in the United States and by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”).

Dropped from FY2021

Dropped from FY2021

All of the provisional goodwill associated with the Transaction is included in goodwill in our Advanced Healthcare Solutions segment at December 31, 2021, and the majority of the provisional goodwill is tax deductible.

Dropped from FY2021

In addition, the Company entered into a transition services agreement with Johnson & Johnson for certain administrative and operational services (“TSA”) with Principal Countries and distribution agreements in the Non-Principal Countries.

Dropped from FY2021

Under the distribution agreements, ASP sells finished goods to Ethicon at prices agreed by the parties.

Dropped from FY2021

ASP recognizes these sales as revenue when the conditions for revenue recognition are met.

Dropped from FY2021

Following the sale of finished goods by ASP, Ethicon obtains title of the finished goods, has full authority to sell and market the finished goods to end customers as it sees fit, and retains any revenue and profit from sale.

Dropped from FY2021

As of December 31, 2021, ASP had exited the TSAs and substantially all of the distribution agreements.

| *Description of the Matter* | | | Valuation of Goodwill The Company’s evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. To estimate the fair value, management uses a market approach based on multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). In certain circumstances, management computes the estimated fair value through a discounted cash flow analysis to validate the results of the market approach. The goodwill evaluation is performed on an annual basis, or more frequently if a triggering event is identified. As described in Note 7, the Company’s goodwill balance is [removed: $9.2] [added: $9.0] billion as of December 31, [removed: 2021.] [added: 2022.] Auditing the Company’s annual goodwill impairment assessment is complex and highly judgmental due to the significant estimation required in determining the fair value of the reporting units. In particular, the estimated fair value is sensitive to the significant assumptions related to the selection of market multiples and projected financial information. A high degree of audit judgment and an increased extent of effort including the need to involve our fair value specialists was required. | | |

| *Description of the Matter* | | | Valuation of acquired intangible assets As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed two acquisitions during 2021 for a total consideration of $2.6 billion. Auditing the accounting for the acquisitions was complex and highly judgmental due to the significant estimation required in determining the fair value of customer relationships, technology, database and trade names acquired (collectively, “intangible assets”), which totaled $792 million in aggregate. In particular, the estimated fair values were sensitive to significant assumptions such as the projected financial information, royalty rates and discount rates used in the valuation models, which are affected by expectations about future market and economic conditions. | | |

Dropped from FY2021

| *How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit* | | | We tested controls over the measurement of the acquired intangible assets, including management’s review of the significant assumptions mentioned above and the completeness and accuracy of the data used in the measurements. To test the estimated fair value of the intangible assets, we read the related purchase agreements, evaluated, among other things, whether (1) the valuation methodologies used were appropriate, (2) the significant assumptions, including discount rates, royalty rates, revenue growth rates, and projected free cash flow, used in valuing these intangibles were reasonable, and (3) the underlying data used by the Company in its analyses was appropriate. Specifically, when evaluating the assumptions related to the projected free cash flow, we compared the assumptions to the past performance of the acquired entities, the Company's history related to similar acquisitions, and the Company’s future plans for the acquired entities. We involved our fair value specialists to assist in our completion of our audit procedures. We also evaluated the Company’s disclosures included in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in relation to these matters. | | |

On the same day, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control issued General License No. 1B (the “OFAC General License”), which generally authorizes U.S. companies to engage in certain transactions and dealings with the FSB necessary and ordinarily incident to requesting or obtaining licenses, permits, certifications or notifications issued or registered by the FSB for the importation, distribution or use of information technology products in Russia.

New in FY2022

As a result, Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act now requires disclosure of dealings with FSB, even where the activities were conducted in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

New in FY2022

As permitted and authorized by the OFAC General License with respect to ASP's sterilization products that are exempt from international sanctions as humanitarian products, certain of the Company's subsidiaries for the ASP operations may file notifications with, or apply for import licenses and permits from, the FSB as required pursuant to Russian encryption product import controls for the purpose of enabling such subsidiaries or their channel partners to import and distribute ASP's sterilization products in the Russian Federation.

New in FY2022

There are no gross revenues or net profits directly associated with these activities with the FSB, and neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries distribute or sell products or provide services to the FSB.

Dropped from FY2021

Not applicable.
