Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
In accordance with the “Safe Harbor” provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we
provide the following cautionary remarks regarding important factors
that, among others, could cause future results
to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, expectations and assumptions
expressed or implied
herein.
All forward-looking statements made by us are subject to
risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of
future performance.
These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other
factors that may cause our actual results, performance and achievements
or industry results to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking
statements.
These statements are generally identified by the use of such
terms as “may,” “could,” “expect,”
“intend,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “anticipate,”
“to be,” “to make” or other comparable
terms.
Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited
to, those discussed in
the documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC), including our Annual Report on Form
10-K. Forward looking statements include the overall impact of the Novel
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)
on the Company, its results of operations, liquidity and financial condition (including any estimates of the impact
on these items), the rate and consistency with which dental and other practices
resume or maintain normal
operations in the United States and internationally, expectations regarding personal protective equipment (“PPE”)
and COVID-19 related product sales and inventory levels, whether additional
resurgences or variants of the virus
will adversely impact the resumption of normal operations, whether vaccine
mandates will adversely impact the
Company (by disrupting our workforce and/or business), whether supply chain
disruptions will adversely impact
our business, the impact of restructuring programs as well as of any
future acquisitions, and more generally current
expectations regarding performance in current and future periods.
Forward looking statements also include the (i)
ability of the Company to have continued access to a variety of COVID-19
test types, expectations regarding
COVID-19 test sales, demand and inventory levels, as well
as the efficacy or relative efficacy of the test results
given that the test efficacy has not been, or will not have been, independently
verified under normal FDA
procedures and (ii) potential for the Company to distribute the COVID-19
vaccines and ancillary supplies.
Risk factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current
and historical results
include, but are not limited to: risks associated with COVID-19
and any variants thereof, as well as other disease
outbreaks, epidemics, pandemics, or similar wide-spread public health concerns
and other natural disasters; our
dependence on third parties for the manufacture and supply of our products;
our ability to develop or acquire and
maintain and protect new products (particularly technology products) and
technologies that achieve market
acceptance with acceptable margins; transitional challenges associated with acquisitions,
dispositions and joint
ventures, including the failure to achieve anticipated synergies/benefits; financial
and tax risks associated with
acquisitions, dispositions and joint ventures; certain provisions in our governing
documents that may discourage
third-party acquisitions of us; effects of a highly competitive (including, without
limitation, competition from third-
party online commerce sites) and consolidating market; the repeal or
judicial prohibition on implementation of the
Affordable Care Act; changes in the health care industry; risks from expansion of
customer purchasing power and
multi-tiered costing structures; increases in shipping costs for our products
or other service issues with our third-
party shippers; general global macro-economic and political conditions,
including international trade agreements,
potential trade barriers and terrorism; failure to comply with existing and
future regulatory requirements; risks
associated with the EU Medical Device Regulation; failure to comply with
laws and regulations relating to health
care fraud or other laws and regulations; failure to comply with laws
and regulations relating to the collection,
storage and processing of sensitive personal information or standards in electronic
health records or transmissions;
changes in tax legislation; risks related to product liability, intellectual property and other claims; litigation
risks; new or unanticipated litigation developments and the status of
litigation matters; risks associated with
customs policies or legislative import restrictions; cyberattacks or other
privacy or data security breaches; risks
associated with our global operations; our dependence on our senior management,
employee hiring and retention,
and our relationships with customers, suppliers and manufacturers;
and disruptions in financial markets.
The order
in which these factors appear should not be construed to indicate their
relative importance or priority.
We caution that these factors may not be exhaustive and that many of these factors are beyond our ability to control
or predict.
Accordingly, any forward-looking statements contained herein should not be relied upon as a prediction
of actual results.
We undertake no duty and have no obligation to update forward-looking statements.

and the social media channels identified on the Newsroom page of our website.
Recent Developments
COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created
significant volatility and disruption of global financial markets in
2020 and 2021.
The impact of COVID-19 had a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows in the
second quarter of 2020.
In the
latter half of the second quarter of 2020, dental and medical practices began
to re-open worldwide, and continued to
do so during the second half of 2020.
During the year ended December 25, 2021, patient traffic levels returned to
levels approaching pre-pandemic levels.
Demand for dental products and certain medical products throughout 2021
was driven by sales of PPE, COVID-19 test kits and other COVID-19
related products.
During the three months
ended March 26, 2022, with the exception of COVID-19 test kits, we experienced
a decrease in the sales volume of
PPE and COVID-19 related products.
During the three months ended March 26, 2022,
as a result of an increase in COVID-19 variants, primarily in
Europe and to a lesser extent in North America, we experienced lower dental
patient traffic, which began to
increase as the quarter progressed.
Although some COVID-19 restrictions are still in place in parts of Europe,
we
expect these markets to recover but at a slower pace.
In contrast to our dental business, during the three months
ended March 26, 2022, our medical business benefited from an increase
in sales volume of COVID-19 test kits and
point-of-care diagnostics.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions
made by us that affect, among
other things, our goodwill, long-lived asset and definite-lived intangible
asset valuation; inventory valuation; equity
investment valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of
deferred income taxes and income
tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; hedging activity;
supplier rebates; measurement of
compensation cost for certain share-based performance awards and cash bonus
plans; and pension plan
assumptions.
Due to the significant uncertainty surrounding the future impact of
COVID-19, our judgments
regarding estimates and impairments could change in the future.
There is an ongoing risk that the COVID-19
pandemic may again have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations
and cash flows and may
result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition and liquidity.
However, the extent of the potential
impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Executive-Level Overview
Henry Schein, Inc. is a solutions company for health care professionals powered
by a network of people and
technology.
We believe we are the world’s largest
provider of health care products and services primarily to
office-
based dental and medical practitioners, as well as alternate sites of care.
We serve more than one million customers
worldwide including dental practitioners, laboratories, physician practices,
and ambulatory surgery centers, as well
as government, institutional health care clinics and other alternate care clinics.
We believe that we have a strong
brand identity due to our more than 89 years of experience distributing health
care products.
We are headquartered in Melville, New York,
employ nearly 22,000 people (of which approximately 10,600
are
based outside of the United States) and have operations or affiliates in 32 countries
and territories.
Our broad
global footprint has evolved over time through our organic success as well as
through contribution from strategic
acquisitions.
We have established strategically located distribution centers around the world to enable us to better serve our
customers and increase our operating efficiency.
This infrastructure, together with broad product and service
offerings at competitive prices, and a strong commitment to customer service,
enables us to be a single source of
supply for our customers’ needs.
While our primary go-to-market strategy is in our capacity as a distributor, we also manufacture certain
dental
specialty products and solutions in the areas of implants, orthodontics
and endodontics.
We have achieved scale in
these global businesses primarily through acquisitions as manufacturers
of these products typically do not utilize a
distribution channel to serve customers.
We conduct our business through two reportable segments: (i) health care distribution and (ii) technology and
value-added services.
These segments offer different products and services to the same customer base.
Our global
dental businesses serve office-based dental practitioners, dental laboratories, schools
and other institutions.
Our
global medical businesses serve office-based medical practitioners, ambulatory
surgery centers, other alternate-care
settings and other institutions.
The health care distribution reportable segment aggregates our global
dental and medical operating segments.
This
segment distributes consumable products, small equipment, laboratory
products, large equipment, equipment repair
services, branded and generic pharmaceuticals, vaccines, surgical products, dental
specialty products (including
implant, orthodontic and endodontic products), diagnostic tests, infection-control
products, PPE and vitamins.
Our global technology and value-added services business provides software,
technology and other value-added
services to health care practitioners.
Our technology business offerings include practice management software
systems for dental and medical practitioners.
Our value-added practice solutions include practice consultancy,
education, revenue cycle management and financial services on a non-recourse
basis, e-services, practice
technology, network and hardware services, as well as consulting, and continuing education services for
practitioners.
A key element to grow closer to our customers is our One Schein initiative, which
is a unified go-to-market
approach that enables practitioners to work synergistically with our supply chain,
equipment sales and service and
other value-added services, allowing our customers to leverage
the combined value that we offer through a single
program.
Specifically, One Schein provides customers with streamlined access to our comprehensive offering of
national brand products, our private label products and proprietary specialty
products and solutions (including
implant, orthodontic and endodontic products).
In addition, customers have access to a wide range of services,
including software and other value-added services.
Industry Overview
In recent years, the health care industry has increasingly focused on cost containment.
This trend has benefited
distributors capable of providing a broad array of products and services at
low prices.
It also has accelerated the
growth of HMOs, group practices, other managed care accounts and collective
buying groups, which, in addition to
their emphasis on obtaining products at competitive prices, tend to
favor distributors capable of providing
specialized management information support.
We believe that the trend towards cost containment has the potential
to favorably affect demand for technology solutions, including software, which can
enhance the efficiency and
facilitation of practice management.
Our operating results in recent years have been significantly affected by strategies
and transactions that we
undertook to expand our business, domestically and internationally, in part to address significant changes
in the
health care industry, including consolidation of health care distribution companies, health care reform, trends
toward managed care, cuts in Medicare and collective purchasing arrangements.
Our current and future results have been and could be impacted by
the COVID-19 pandemic, the current economic
environment and continued economic and public health uncertainty.
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in
early 2020, we have been carefully monitoring its impact on our global
operations and have taken appropriate steps
to minimize the risk to our employees.
We have seen and expect to continue to see changes in demand trends for
some of our products and services, supply chain challenges and labor
challenges, as rates of infection fluctuate, new
strains or variants of COVID-19 emerge and spread, vaccine uptake and mandates
increase and change,
governments adapt their approaches to combatting the virus (including
without limitation, vaccine mandates), and
local conditions change across geographies.
For example, vaccine mandates affecting our workforce, whether
imposed through government regulations or contracts with governmental authorities
or other customers, could
potentially cause staffing shortages if employees choose not to comply as well as
other consequences to our
business or operations, managing and tracking vaccination status and ongoing
testing for exempt employees could
potentially increase our costs, as could addressing inconsistent COVID-19
vaccination mandates.
As a result, we
expect to see continued volatility through at least the duration of the pandemic.
Industry Consolidation
The health care products distribution industry, as it relates to office-based health care practitioners, is fragmented
and diverse.
The industry ranges from sole practitioners working out
of relatively small offices to group practices
or service organizations ranging in size from a few practitioners to a large number of practitioners who have
combined or otherwise associated their practices.
Due in part to the inability of office-based health care practitioners to store and manage
large quantities of supplies
in their offices, the distribution of health care supplies and small equipment to office-based health
care practitioners
has been characterized by frequent, small quantity orders, and a need for
rapid, reliable and substantially complete
order fulfillment.
The purchasing decisions within an office-based health care practice are typically
made by the
practitioner or an administrative assistant.
Supplies and small equipment are generally purchased from more
than
one distributor, with one generally serving as the primary supplier.
The trend of consolidation extends to our customer base.
Health care practitioners are increasingly seeking to
partner, affiliate or combine with larger entities such as hospitals, health systems, group practices or physician
hospital organizations.
In many cases, purchasing decisions for consolidated groups
are made at a centralized or
professional staff level; however, orders are delivered to the practitioners’ offices.
We believe that consolidation within the industry will continue to result in a number of distributors, particularly
those with limited financial, operating and marketing resources, seeking
to combine with larger companies that can
provide growth opportunities.
This consolidation also may continue to result in distributors seeking
to acquire
companies that can enhance their current product and service offerings or provide
opportunities to serve a broader
customer base.
Our trend with regard to acquisitions and joint ventures has been to expand
our role as a provider of products and
services to the health care industry.
This trend has resulted in our expansion into service areas that complement
our
existing operations and provide opportunities for us to develop synergies with, and
thus strengthen, the acquired
businesses.
As industry consolidation continues, we believe that we are positioned
to capitalize on this trend, as we believe we
have the ability to support increased sales through our existing infrastructure,
although there can be no assurances
that we will be able to successfully accomplish this.
We also have invested in expanding our sales/marketing
infrastructure to include a focus on building relationships with decision
makers who do not reside in the office-
based practitioner setting.
As the health care industry continues to change, we continually evaluate possible
candidates for joint venture or
acquisition and intend to continue to seek opportunities to expand our
role as a provider of products and services to
the health care industry.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully pursue
any such
opportunity or consummate any such transaction, if pursued.
If additional transactions are entered into or
consummated, we would incur merger and/or acquisition-related costs, and
there can be no assurance that the
integration efforts associated with any such transaction would be successful.
In response to the COVID-19
pandemic, we had taken a range of actions to preserve cash, including
the temporary suspension of significant
acquisition activity.
During the second half of 2020, as global conditions improved, we resumed
our acquisition
strategy.
Aging Population and Other Market Influences
The health care products distribution industry continues to experience growth
due to the aging population,
increased health care awareness, the proliferation of medical technology
and testing, new pharmacology treatments,
and expanded third-party insurance coverage, partially offset by the effects of unemployment on insurance
coverage. In addition, the physician market continues to benefit from the shift
of procedures and diagnostic testing
from acute care settings to alternate-care sites, particularly physicians’
offices.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s International Database, in 2021 there were more than six and a half million
Americans aged 85 years or older, the segment of the population most in need of long-term care
and elder-care
services. By the year 2050, that number is projected to nearly triple to approximately
19 million. The population
aged 65 to 84 years is projected to increase by approximately 32% during
the same period.
As a result of these market dynamics, annual expenditures for health
care services continue to increase in the
United States.
We believe that demand for our products and services will grow while continuing to be impacted by
current and future operating, economic, and industry conditions. The Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services,
or CMS, published “National Health Expenditure Data” indicating
that total national health care spending reached
approximately $4.1 trillion in 2020, or 19.7% of the nation’s gross domestic product, the benchmark
measure for
annual production of goods and services in the United States.
Health care spending is projected to reach
approximately $6.2 trillion in 2028, approximately 19.7% of the
nation’s projected gross domestic product.
The
latest projections begin after the latest historical year 2018 and go through
- These projections do not take into
account the impacts of COVID-19 because of the timing of the report and
the highly uncertain nature of the
pandemic.
Government
Certain of our businesses involve the distribution, importation, exportation,
marketing and sale of, and third party
payment for, pharmaceuticals and medical devices, and in this regard, we are subject to extensive
local, state,
federal and foreign governmental laws and regulations, including
as applicable to our wholesale distribution of
pharmaceuticals and medical devices, and as part of our specialty home medical
supply business that distributes and
sells medical equipment and supplies directly to patients.
The federal government and state governments have also
increased enforcement activity in the health care sector, particularly in areas of fraud and abuse, anti-bribery
and
corruption, controlled substances handling, medical device regulations and
data privacy and security standards.
In addition, certain of our businesses must operate in compliance with
a variety of burdensome and complex billing
and record-keeping requirements in order to substantiate claims for payment under
federal, state and commercial
healthcare reimbursement programs.
One of these businesses was recently suspended by CMS from
receiving
payments from Medicare, although it is permitted to continue to perform
and bill for Medicare services.
The
amounts billed are being deposited in an escrow account pending resolution
of an audit.
The Company has not
recognized revenue for these services and has currently deferred slightly over $8
million in revenue (including $4
million deferred during the three months ended March 26, 2022 and slightly
over $4 million deferred during the
three months ended December 25, 2021).
Government and private insurance programs fund a large portion of the total cost of medical
care, and there have
been efforts to limit such private and government insurance programs, including efforts,
thus far unsuccessful, to
seek repeal of the entire United States Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,
as amended by the Health Care
and Education Reconciliation Act, each enacted in March 2010, (as amended,
the “ACA”).
In addition, activities to
control medical costs, including laws and regulations lowering reimbursement
rates for pharmaceuticals, medical
devices and/or medical treatments or services, are ongoing.
Many of these laws and regulations are subject to
change and their evolving implementation may impact our operations and
our financial performance.
Our businesses are generally subject to numerous laws and regulations that could
impact our financial performance,
and failure to comply with such laws or regulations could have a
material adverse effect on our business.
A more detailed discussion of governmental laws and regulations
is included in Management’s Discussion &
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,
contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 25, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 15, 2022.

Plans of Restructuring
On November 20, 2019, we committed to a contemplated restructuring
initiative intended to mitigate stranded costs
associated with the spin-off of our animal health business and to rationalize operations
and to provide expense
efficiencies.
These restructuring activities were completed in 2021.
During the three months ended March 27, 2021, we recorded restructuring
costs of $3 million.
As of March 26,
2022 and December 25, 2021, the remaining accrued balance for restructuring
costs was $3 million and $4 million,
respectively.

Consists of consumable products, small equipment, laboratory products, large equipment, equipment repair services, branded and
generic pharmaceuticals, vaccines, surgical products, dental specialty products (including implant, orthodontic and endodontic
products), diagnostic tests, infection-control products, PPE and vitamins.
(2)
Consists of practice management software and other value-added products, which are distributed primarily to health care providers,
practice consultancy, education, revenue cycle management and financial services on a non-recourse basis, e-services, continuing
education services for practitioners, consulting and other services.
The 8.7% increase in net sales includes an increase of 10.1% in local currency
sales (7.7% increase in internally
generated sales and 2.4% growth from acquisitions) partially offset by a decrease
of 1.4% related to foreign
currency exchange.
We estimate that sales of PPE and COVID-19 related products were approximately $487
million, an increase of 4.4% versus the prior year.
Excluding PPE and COVID-19 related products, the estimated
increase in internally generated local currency sales was 8.9%.
The 2.2% increase in dental net sales includes an increase of 4.4% in local
currency sales (3.5% increase in
internally generated sales and 0.9% growth from acquisitions) partially offset by a
decrease of 2.2% related to
foreign currency exchange.
The 4.4% increase in local currency sales was attributable to an increase in dental
consumable merchandise sales of 2.4% (1.3% increase in internally generated
sales and 1.1% growth from
acquisitions) and an increase in dental equipment and service
sales of 12.0% (11.9% increase in internally
generated sales and 0.1% growth from acquisitions).
Our sales growth in dental merchandise was lower than our
sales growth in dental equipment during the first half of the three months
ended March 26, 2022.
As a result of an
increase in COVID-19 variants, primarily in Europe and to a lesser extent
in North America, our dental
merchandise growth was impacted by lower patient traffic, which began to increase as the
quarter progressed.
Dental equipment sales increased in both our North American and international
markets, which is primarily
attributable to increased demand and strong order backlog.
We estimate that our dental business recorded sales of
approximately $143 million of PPE and COVID-19 related products, an estimated
decrease of 15.3% versus the
prior year.
Excluding PPE and COVID-19 related products, the estimated
increase in internally generated local
currency dental sales was 6.3%.
The 18.3% increase in medical net sales includes an increase of 18.5%
in local currency sales (14.7% increase in
internally generated sales and 3.8% growth from acquisitions), partially offset by
a decrease of 0.2% related to
foreign currency exchange.
We estimate that our medical business recorded sales of approximately $344 million of
PPE, COVID-19 test kits, point-of-care diagnostics and other COVID-19
related products for the three months
ended March 26, 2022, an estimated increase of 15.7%
compared to the prior year.
Excluding sales of PPE,
COVID-19 test kits, point-of-care diagnostics and other COVID-19
related products, the estimated increase in
internally generated local currency medical sales was 14.5%.
The 23.4% increase in technology and value-added services net sales includes
an increase of 24.1%
in local
currency sales (11.1% increase in internally generated sales and 13.0% growth from acquisitions)
partially offset by
a decrease of 0.7% related to foreign currency exchange.
During the quarter ended March 26, 2022, the trend for
transactional software sales improved compared to the prior year, as more patients visited dental practices
worldwide, generating demand for our sales cycle management solutions,
and also from cloud-based solutions that
drive practice efficiency and patient engagement.

As a result of different practices of categorizing costs associated with distribution networks
throughout our
industry, our gross margins may not necessarily be comparable to other distribution companies.
Additionally, we
realize substantially higher gross margin percentages in our technology and value-added services
segment than in
our health care distribution segment.
These higher gross margins result from being both the developer and seller of
software products and services, as well as certain financial services.
The software industry typically realizes higher
gross margins to recover investments in development.
Within our health care distribution segment, gross profit margins may vary from one period to the next.
Changes in
the mix of products sold as well as changes in our customer mix have been
the most significant drivers affecting
our gross profit margin.
For example, sales of our private label products achieve
gross profit margins that are
higher than average total gross profit margins of all products.
With respect to customer mix, sales to our large-
group customers are typically completed at lower gross margins due to the higher
volumes sold as opposed to the
gross margin on sales to office-based practitioners, who normally purchase lower volumes at
greater frequencies.
Health care distribution gross profit increased $68 million, or 8.6%, primarily
due to the increase in net sales
discussed above.
In addition, health care distribution gross profit margin benefitted from supplier rebates
during
the quarter due to increased purchase volumes.
The overall increase in our health care distribution gross profit
includes an increase of $37 million from internally generated sales, $19
million additional gross profit from
acquisitions, and a $12 million increase in the gross margin rates due to product mix and supplier
rebates.
Technology and value-added services gross profit increased $14 million, or 13.8%, due to a $10 million increase in
internally generated sales and $8 million additional gross profit from acquisitions,
partially offset by a decrease of
$4 million from gross margin rates due to product mix.
Technology and value-added services gross profit margin
decreased to 64.9% from 70.3% primarily due to lower gross margins of recently acquired
companies in the
business services sector.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (including restructuring costs
in the three months ended March 27,
- increased $68 million, or 10.2%.
The $54 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses within
our health care distribution segment
was attributable to an increase of $36 million of operating costs and an increase
of $21 million of additional costs
from acquired companies, partially offset by a decrease of $3 million in restructuring costs.
The $14 million
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses within our technology
and value-added services segment
was attributable to an increase of $7 million of operating costs and an
increase of $7 million of additional costs
from acquired companies.
As a component of total selling, general and administrative expenses,
selling expenses increased $57 million, or
14.8% to $443 million primarily due to an increase in payroll and payroll
related costs and travel and convention
expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, selling expenses increased to 13.9%
from 13.2%.
As a component of total selling, general and administrative expenses, general
and administrative expenses
increased $11 million, or 3.7% to $287 million primarily due to an increase in payroll and payroll related
costs and
travel and convention expenses.
As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased

Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 26, 2022 our effective tax rate was 24.0% compared
to 25.1% for the prior year
period.
The difference between our effective tax rates and the federal statutory tax rate for the three
months ended
March 26, 2022 primarily relates to state and foreign income taxes and
interest expense as well as share-based
compensation.
The difference between our effective tax rate and the federal statutory tax rate for the three months
ended March 27, 2021 was primarily due to state and foreign income
taxes and interest expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal capital requirements have included funding of acquisitions, purchases
of additional noncontrolling
interests, repayments of debt principal, the funding of working capital needs,
purchases of fixed assets and
repurchases of common stock (which had been temporarily suspended
in April 2020, but were resumed in early
March 2021).
Working capital requirements generally result from increased sales, special inventory forward buy-in
opportunities and payment terms for receivables and payables.
Historically, sales have tended to be stronger during
the second half of the year and special inventory forward buy-in opportunities
have been most prevalent just before
the end of the year, and have caused our working capital requirements to be higher from the end of the
third quarter
to the end of the first quarter of the following year.
We finance our business primarily through cash generated from our operations, revolving credit facilities and debt
placements.
Please see
for further information.
Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from
operations is dependent on the continued demand of our customers
for our products and services, and access to
products and services from our suppliers.
Our business requires a substantial investment in working capital, which
is susceptible to fluctuations during the
year as a result of inventory purchase patterns and seasonal demands.
Inventory purchase activity is a function of
sales activity, special inventory forward buy-in opportunities and our desired level of inventory.
We anticipate
future increases in our working capital requirements.
We finance our business to provide adequate funding for at least 12 months.
Funding requirements are based on
forecasted profitability and working capital needs, which, on occasion, may
change.
Consequently, we may change
our funding structure to reflect any new requirements.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, our ability to access private debt markets and public equity markets,
and our available funds under existing credit facilities provide us with
sufficient liquidity to meet our currently
foreseeable short-term and long-term capital needs.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $93 million for the
three months ended March 26, 2022, compared to
net cash provided by operating activities of $63 million for the comparable
prior year period.
The net change of
$30 million was primarily attributable to higher net income and decreased
working capital, specifically a decrease
in inventory
levels of PPE and COVID-19 related products, and reduced levels
of prepaid inventory and lower
outstanding vendor rebates.
These working capital decreases were partially offset by an increase in accounts
receivable balances resulting from increased sales.
Net cash used in investing activities was $27 million for the three
months ended March 26, 2022, compared to $223
million for the comparable prior year period.
The net change of $196 million was primarily attributable to
decreased payments for equity investments and business acquisitions.
Net cash used in financing activities was $62 million for the three
months ended March 26, 2022, compared to net
cash used in financing activities of $120 million for the comparable
prior year period.
The net change of $58
million was primarily due to decreased repurchases of common stock.

Our cash and cash equivalents consist of bank balances and investments
in money market funds representing
overnight investments with a high degree of liquidity.
Accounts receivable days sales outstanding and inventory turns
Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding from operations decreased
to 42 days as of March 26, 2022 from 43
days as of March 27, 2021.
During the three months ended March 26, 2022, we wrote off approximately $3 million
of fully reserved accounts receivable against our trade receivable reserve.
Our inventory turns from operations
decreased to 4.7 as of March 26, 2022 from 5.2 as of March 27, 2021.
Our working capital accounts may be
impacted by current and future economic conditions.
Leases
We have operating and finance leases for corporate offices, office space, distribution and other facilities, vehicles,
and certain equipment.
Our leases have remaining terms of less than one year to
approximately 19 years, some of
which may include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years.
As of March 26, 2022, our right-of-use assets
related to operating leases were $331 million and our current and non-current
operating lease liabilities were $76
million and $277 million, respectively.
Stock Repurchases
On March 8, 2021, we announced the reinstatement of our share repurchase
program.
From March 3, 2003 through March 26, 2022, we repurchased $4.0 billion,
or 81,068,993 shares, under our
common stock repurchase programs, with $200 million available as of March
26, 2022 for future common stock
share repurchases.
During the fiscal quarter ended March 26, 2022,
we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock because
we
had a 10b5-1 plan that did not result in any shares being repurchased during
the quarter.
We intend to put in place
an additional plan effective May 4, 2022.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including
our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report
as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Based
on this evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal
financial officer,
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March
26, 2022, to ensure that all
material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file
or submit under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to them as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure and
that all such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the
SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The combination of continued acquisition integrations and system
implementation undertaken during the quarter
and carried over from prior quarters when considered in the aggregate, represents
a material change in our internal
control over financial reporting.
During the three months ended March 26, 2022, post-acquisition integration
related activities continued for our
dental and medical businesses acquired during prior quarters.
These acquisitions, the majority of which utilize
separate information and financial accounting systems, have been
included in our consolidated financial statements
since their respective dates of acquisition.
In addition, during the quarter ended March 26, 2022, we completed the
systems implementation activities to
upgrade the warehouse management system for our Australian dental
business.
All continued acquisition integrations and systems implementation involve
necessary and appropriate change-
management controls that are considered in our quarterly assessment of
the design and operating effectiveness of
our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide
only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
that the objectives of the internal control system are met.
Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control
system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control
issues, if any, within a company
have been detected.

ITEM 2.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Purchases of equity securities by the issuer
Our share repurchase program announced on March 3, 2003
, originally allowed us to repurchase up to two million
shares pre-stock splits (eight million shares post-stock splits) of our common
stock, which represented
approximately 2.3% of the shares outstanding at the commencement of
the program.
Subsequent additional
increases totaling $4.1 billion, authorized by our Board of Directors,
to the repurchase program provide for a total
of $4.2 billion of shares of our common stock to be repurchased under this
program.
As of March 26, 2022, we had repurchased approximately $4.0 billion of
common stock (81,068,993 shares) under
these initiatives, with $200 million available for future common stock
share repurchases.
During the fiscal quarter ended March 26, 2022, we did not repurchase
any shares of our common stock because we
had a 10b5-1 plan that did not result in any shares being repurchased during
the quarter.
We intend to put in place
an additional plan effective May 4, 2022.
The maximum number of shares that could be purchased under this program
is determined at the end of each month
based on the closing price of our common stock at that time.
The maximum number of shares that could be
repurchased as of January 29, 2022, February 26, 2022, and March
26, 2022 were 2,642,010, 2,290,428 and
2,276,610, respectively.
Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION
OTHER INFORMATION
On May 2, 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
(the “Compensation Committee”)
approved the adoption of the Henry Schein, Inc. Executive Change in Control
Plan (the “CIC Plan”). The CIC Plan
contains the following material terms and conditions (terms capitalized but
not defined in the below description
have the definitions set forth in the CIC Plan):
Eligibility and Participation.
Members of our Executive Management Committee (“EMC”) and
other
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries who are specifically designated
by the “Administrator” are
eligible to participate in the CIC Plan, in each case,
subject to such person’s execution of a “Participation
Agreement” provided by the Company (in the form attached as Appendix
A to the CIC Plan), and provided
that such person is a member of a select group of management or highly
compensated employees.
Benefits Under the CIC Plan.
In the event that a participant in the Plan is terminated without “Cause”, or
resigns for “Good Reason”, in each case, during the period starting
90 days prior to a “Change in Control”
(or, if earlier, the date of the first public announcement of a pending “Change in Control”) and ending two
years following a Change in Control (such termination of employment,
a “Termination”), then subject to
execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, the participant will be
entitled to receive:
●
base salary through the Termination date;
●
a pro-rated annual bonus based on actual performance for the year
in which the Termination
occurs;
●
an amount equal to the product of (A) the sum of the participant’s base salary and target annual
bonus amount, multiplied by (B) the “Severance Multiple”;
●
immediate vesting of the participant’s outstanding stock options (to the maximum extent
permitted by the applicable stock option plan), restricted stock/units, deferred
stock awards and
non-qualified retirement benefits;
●
settlement of the participant’s deferred compensation arrangements in accordance with the
applicable plan or election form; and
●
COBRA continuation health coverage subsidized by the Company (with
the participant paying the
applicable active employee rate) for up to the applicable severance period
(not to exceed 18
months).
Under the Plan, the Compensation Committee has the sole discretion
to set and/or increase a participant’s
Severance Multiple under the Plan, but in no event to a value greater
than 3.0. The Compensation Committee has
set the Severance Multiple for each participant (other than a participant who
serves as our Chief Executive Officer)
who is an “executive officer” (as determined under Securities and Exchange Commission
rules) to 2.0, and has set
the Severance Multiple for all other participants to 1.0.
Restrictive Covenants.
The CIC Plan contains perpetual confidentiality and non-disparagement
provisions,
and prohibits solicitation of Company employees for 24 months following the
participant’s termination of
employment for any reason.
Amendment and Termination.
The CIC Plan cannot be terminated or amended in any way
that materially
and adversely affects the right of a participant without such participant’s consent. Additionally, the CIC
Plan cannot be amended or terminated in any way during the time period
starting 90 days prior to a Change
in Control (or the date the Company enters into a definitive agreement to
effect a Change in Control) and
ending on the later of (i) two years after a Change in Control or (ii) the date
that all payments and benefits
under the Plan have been paid.
The foregoing summary of the CIC Plan does not purport to be complete
and is subject to, and qualified in its
entirety by, the full text of the CIC Plan, which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 and incorporated herein by reference.
