85 rewritten, 25 added, 261 removed, 383 unchanged
*In addition to the other information set forth in this [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] Annual Report, any of the factors described below could materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and liquidity, which could cause the trading price of our securities to decline.*
*In particular, forward-looking statements include statements relating to [removed: the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and any recovery therefrom on] our [removed: business, our 2022 financial guidance,] future actions, business plans or prospects, prospective products, product approvals or products under development, product [added: and] supply [added: chain] disruptions, [added: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and any recovery therefrom on our business,] R&D costs, timing and likelihood of success, future operating or financial performance, future results of current and anticipated products and services, strategies, sales efforts, expenses, production efficiencies, production margins, anticipated timing of generic market entries, integration of acquired businesses, interest rates, tax [removed: rates and] [added: rates, changes in] tax regimes and [removed: any changes thereto,] [added: laws,] foreign exchange rates, growth in emerging markets, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, plans related to share repurchases and dividends,* *government regulation and financial results.
Risks related to our business and [added: the animal health] industry
Risks related to [added: our] research and development
Risks related to [removed: manufacturing][added: manufacturing and supply]
[removed: - We] [added: We] rely on third parties to provide us with [added: products,] materials and services, and are subject to increased labor and material costs and potential disruptions in [removed: supply.][added: supply.]
[removed: - Pfizer's rights as licensor under] [added: Under] the [removed: patent] [added: Patent] and [removed: know-how license could limit our ability] [added: Know-How License Agreement (Pfizer as licensor) Pfizer licenses] to [removed: develop and commercialize] [added: us] certain [removed: products.][added: of its intellectual property.]
Our global operations expose us to risks associated with public health crises, including epidemics and pandemics such as [removed: the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).][added: COVID-19.]
There is no certainty that measures taken by governmental [removed: authorities] [added: authorities, including those taken in China,] will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and our ability to continue to perform critical functions could be harmed.
The COVID-19 pandemic has and may continue to impact our [added: global] supply chain as we experience disruptions or delays in shipments of certain materials or components of our products.
Additionally, many of our workforce continue to work [removed: remotely as a result of the pandemic.][added: remotely.]
Remote working arrangements could result in additional complexity or inefficiency or increase operational risks, including, but not limited to, risks associated with [added: cybersecurity,] information technology and systems which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Weak global economic conditions also may [removed: exacerbate] [added: amplify] the ongoing impact of the pandemic.
This situation continues to change rapidly, especially as new variants of the virus are [removed: identified] [added: identified, surges occur] and [added: government mitigation plans are implemented and] additional impacts may arise that we are not aware of currently.
If any of our top-selling products [added: and product lines] experience issues, such as loss of patent protection, material product liability litigation, new or unexpected side effects, manufacturing [added: or supply chain] disruptions, regulatory proceedings, labeling changes, negative publicity, changes to veterinarian or customer preferences, and/or disruptive innovations or the introduction of [added: competing and/or] more effective products, our revenues could be negatively impacted, perhaps significantly.
[removed: Our] [added: For example, our] five top-selling [removed: products, Apoquel,] [added: products and product lines,] Simparica/Simparica Trio, [added: Apoquel, Cytopoint,] Revolution/Revolution [removed: Plus/Stronghold, Cytopoint] [added: Plus/Stronghold] and [removed: the] ceftiofur [removed: product] line, contributed approximately [removed: 33%] [added: 37%] of our revenue in [removed: 2021.][added: 2022, and any issues with these top-selling products and product lines would have a more significant impact to our results of operations.]
For example, several companies have launched generic versions of our Rimadyl chewable [removed: product.][added: and Draxxin products.]
In the years since the start of generic and other competition, sales of our Rimadyl chewable [removed: product] [added: and Draxxin products] have declined [removed: by approximately 19%] in the U.S., [removed: its] [added: the] largest [removed: market.][added: market for these products, by 23% and 45%, respectively, and additional declines are expected in subsequent years.]
[removed: In addition, we] [added: We] may [removed: be subject] [added: not complete these transactions in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, or at all, due] to regulatory constraints or limitations or other unforeseen factors that prevent us from realizing the expected benefits.
We may be unable to integrate acquisitions successfully into our existing business, and we may be unable to achieve expected [added: sales,] gross margin improvements or efficiencies.
[removed: Acquiring or implementing] [added: Implementing] new business lines or offering new products and services may subject us to additional risks.
From time to time, we may [removed: acquire or] implement new business lines or offer new products and services within existing lines of business.
[added: Failure to successfully manage these risks in the implementation or] acquisition of new lines of business or the offering of new products or services could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations, and financial condition.
Our total revenue attributable to antibacterials for livestock was approximately [removed: $1.1] [added: $1.0] billion for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2021.][added: 2022.]
In addition, certain jurisdictions like Italy have implemented the use of electronic prescriptions, which has caused more disciplined use of antibiotics and decreased the demand for our [added: antibacterial] products.
[removed: In] [added: Also, in] certain markets, there has been an increase in consumer preference towards proteins produced without the use of antibiotics.
Adverse consumer views related to the use of one or more of our products in livestock also may result in a decrease in the use of such products and could [removed: have a material adverse effect on] [added: materially adversely affect] our operating results and financial condition.
Our business is subject to risk based on global economic [added: and political] conditions.
Macroeconomic, [removed: business] [added: business, political] and financial [removed: disruptions, including inflation,] [added: disruptions] could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.
Certain of our customers and suppliers [removed: could] [added: may] be affected directly by [removed: an] [added: the current] economic downturn and could face credit issues or cash flow problems that could give rise to payment delays, increased credit risk, bankruptcies and other financial hardships that could decrease the demand for our products or hinder our ability to collect amounts due from [removed: customers.][added: customers or goods from our suppliers.]
If one or more of our large customers, including distributors, discontinue their relationship with us as a result of economic [removed: conditions] [added: conditions, sanctions] or otherwise, our operating results and financial condition may be materially adversely affected.
In addition, economic concerns [added: and geopolitical instability] may cause some pet owners to forgo or defer visits to veterinary practices or could reduce their willingness to treat pet health conditions or even to continue to own a pet.
Moreover, customers may seek lower price alternatives to our products if they are negatively impacted by [added: the current] poor economic conditions.
Infectious disease outbreaks, [removed: pandemics] [added: pandemics, sanctions, geopolitical instability] and widespread fear of spreading disease through human contact can cause disruptions to or negatively impact [removed: our,] our customers’ and our distributors’ business operations, which could materially adversely affect our operating results.
Furthermore, our exposure to credit and collectability risk [added: and cybersecurity risk] is higher in certain international markets and [added: as a result of the crisis resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,] our ability to mitigate such risks may be limited.
While we have procedures to monitor and limit exposure to credit and collectability [removed: risk,] [added: risk and have defensive measures in place to prevent and mitigate cyberattacks,] there can be no assurances that such procedures [added: and measures] will effectively limit such [removed: risk] [added: risks] and avoid losses.
In recent years, outbreaks of various diseases, including African Swine Fever, avian influenza, foot-and-mouth disease, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (otherwise known as BSE or mad cow disease) and porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (otherwise [added: known as PEDv), have impacted the animal health business.]
Weather conditions, including excessive cold or heat, natural [removed: disasters] [added: disasters, floods, droughts] and other events, could negatively impact our livestock customers by impairing the health or growth of their animals or the production or availability of feed.
If such events affect our customers’ businesses, they may purchase [removed: fewer Zoetis products, and our revenues may be negatively impacted.]
[removed: Moreover, there] [added: There] has been a broad range of proposed and promulgated state, national and international regulation aimed at reducing the effects of climate change.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the imposition of sanctions and business disruptions and the measures taken in China to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as inflation, are examples of recent global economic conditions that could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and liquidity.
In addition, we cannot predict the impact or affect on our business of any future pandemics or disease outbreaks that may occur.
We may be subject to litigation or government investigations in connection with, or as a result of, acquisitions, dispositions, licenses or other alliances.
fewer Zoetis products, and our revenues may be negatively impacted.
success when introduced into new markets.
Our licenses or permits for animal testing could be revoked or put on hold due to animal welfare events that may occur.
- the failure to accurately forecast demand for our products;
For example, we sell limited humanitarian animal health products, including medicines, diagnostics and vaccines, to Russia and Iran, in compliance with economic sanctions affecting these countries.
In addition, our internal control policies and procedures may not protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees and agents.
The legal environment surrounding data privacy is demanding with the frequent imposition of new and changing regulatory requirements.
Our aspirations, goals and disclosures related to environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters expose us to numerous risks, including risks to our reputation.
Our Driven to Care sustainability program includes various ESG aspirations and goals.
These goal statements reflect our current plans and aspirations and are not guarantees that we will be able to achieve them.
Our efforts to accomplish and accurately report on these goals and objectives present numerous operational, reputational, financial, legal and other risks, any of which could have a material negative impact, including on our reputation.
Our ability to achieve any goal or objective, including with respect to environmental and diversity initiatives, is subject to numerous risks, many of which are outside of our control.
Examples of such risks include: (1) the availability and cost of low- or non-carbon-based energy sources and technologies, (2) evolving regulatory requirements affecting ESG standards or disclosures, (3) our ability to recruit, develop and retain diverse talent in our labor markets, and (4) the impact of our organic growth and acquisitions or dispositions of businesses or operations.
The standards for tracking and reporting on ESG matters are relatively new, have not been harmonized and continue to evolve.
Our processes and controls may not always align with evolving standards for identifying, measuring and reporting ESG metrics, our interpretation of reporting standards that may be required by the SEC, European and other regulators may differ from those of others and such standards may change over time, any of which could result in significant revisions to our goals or reported progress in achieving such goals.
If our ESG practices do not meet evolving investor or other stakeholder expectations and standards, then our reputation, our ability to attract or retain employees and our attractiveness as an investment, business partner or acquirer could be negatively impacted.
Similarly, our failure or perceived failure to pursue or fulfill our goals, targets and objectives or to satisfy various reporting standards within the timelines we announce, or at all, could also have similar negative impacts and expose us to government enforcement actions and private litigation.
- compliance with a wide variety of potentially changing and conflicting laws and regulations, such as the FCPA, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 and similar anti-bribery and corruption-related laws globally, including labor laws, tax laws, tariffs and those relating to environmental, health and safety requirements;
restrictions on banking and commercial activities in those countries.
On December 15, 2022, the EU Council confirmed its adoption of the Pillar Two 15% global minimum tax.
Under the directive, EU members have until December 31, 2023 to implement the minimum tax into their domestic law.
In addition, global minimum tax legislation has been proposed and/or enacted in various other jurisdictions.

A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] compared to fiscal [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] is presented below.
A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] compared to fiscal [removed: 2019] [added: 2020] can be found under Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] filed with the SEC on February [removed: 16, 2021] [added: 15, 2022] (our [removed: “2020] [added: “2021] Annual Report”), which is available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
For [added: over] 70 years, we have been innovating ways to predict, prevent, detect, and treat animal illness, and continue to stand by those raising and caring for animals worldwide - from [removed: livestock farmers to] veterinarians and pet [removed: owners.][added: owners to livestock farmers and ranchers.]
Our research and development (R&D) efforts enable us to deliver innovative products to address unmet needs and evolve our product lines so [added: that] they remain relevant for our customers.
For instance, in livestock, impacts on our revenue that may result from disease outbreaks or weather conditions in a particular market or region are often offset by increased sales in other regions from exports and other species as consumers shift to other [added: animal] proteins.
A summary of our [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] performance compared with the comparable [removed: 2020] [added: 2021] and [removed: 2019] [added: 2020] periods follows:

[removed: Livestock health] and production are essential to meeting the growing demand for animal protein of a global population.
Our total revenue attributable to antibacterials for livestock was approximately [removed: $1.1] [added: $1] billion for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2021.][added: 2022.]
In addition to industry-specific factors, we, like other businesses, face challenges related to global economic [removed: conditions.][added: conditions, the current economic downturn and high inflation.]
In the past, certain of our customers and suppliers have been affected directly by economic [removed: downturns,] [added: downturns or inflation,] which decreased the demand for our products and, in some cases, hindered our ability to collect amounts due from customers.
[added: While these factors have mitigated the impact of prior downturns in the global economy, economic] challenges, including [added: the current economic downturn and] inflation, could increase cost sensitivity among our customers, which may result in reduced demand for our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
For more information regarding the generic competition we [removed: currently have and] expect to encounter as patents on certain of our key products expire, see *Item 1.
Their animals’ health and their ability to operate could be adversely affected if they experience a shortage of fresh water due to human [removed: population growth, climate change or floods, droughts or other weather conditions.]
We continue to closely monitor the impact of the [removed: coronavirus (COVID-19)] [added: COVID-19] pandemic and the resulting global [removed: recession] [added: economic downturn] on all aspects of our business across geographies, including how it has and may continue to impact our customers, workforce, suppliers and vendors.
In addition, a number of factors could cause production interruptions that could result in launch delays, inventory shortages, recalls, unanticipated costs or issues with our [removed: agreements under which we] supply [added: agreements with] third parties.
In [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] we experienced [removed: isolated] supply [added: chain] challenges for [removed: Librela, Solensia] [added: certain products including Simparica Trio,] and [added: the component parts of certain products including Librela and Solensia, and] some of our other products, resulting from strong demand as well as competition for manufacturing inputs with human health vaccine development during the pandemic.
[removed: Some of these challenges are expected to continue in 2022, but are being managed by our] [added: Our] global manufacturing network [removed: through certain] [added: team remains committed to addressing specific issues with ongoing] supply chain optimizations, controlled launches for new products in additional markets and customer coordination.
For the year ended December 31, [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] approximately [removed: 44%] [added: 42%] of our revenue was denominated in foreign currencies.

Our year-over-year total revenue growth was [removed: favorably] [added: unfavorably] impacted by [removed: 1%] [added: 4%] from changes in foreign currency values relative to the U.S. dollar.
In [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] our two top-selling [removed: products, Apoquel] [added: products] and [added: product lines,] Simparica/Simparica [removed: Trio,] [added: Trio and Apoquel,] each contributed approximately [added: 12% and] 10% of our revenue, [added: respectively,] and combined with our next three top-selling [removed: products,] [added: products and product lines, Cytopoint,] Revolution/Revolution [removed: Plus/Stronghold, Cytopoint] [added: Plus/Stronghold] and [removed: the] ceftiofur line, these five [added: products and product lines] contributed approximately [removed: 33%] [added: 37%] of our revenue.
Our ten top-selling [added: products and] product lines contributed [removed: 47%] [added: 49%] of our revenue.

While all identifiable intangible assets can be impacted by events and thus lead to impairment, in general, identifiable intangible assets that are at the highest risk of impairment include IPR&D assets [removed: (approximately $88] [added: ($77] million as of December 31, [removed: 2021).][added: 2022).]
In [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] and [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] we performed a periodic quantitative impairment assessment as of September 30, [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] and [removed: 2020,] [added: 2021,] respectively, which did not result in the impairment of goodwill associated with any of our reporting units.

Since 2021, the first year of generic competition, sales of Draxxin declined by 45% in the U.S., its largest market, and additional declines are expected in subsequent years.
Russia’s Invasion of Ukraine
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the global response, including sanctions imposed by the United States and other countries, have increased global economic and political uncertainty.
As we announced on March 16, 2022, our first concern remains the safety of our colleagues and their families in Ukraine.
Our operations in Russia are focused on maintaining a supply of medicines and vaccines in compliance with any sanctions that are put in place.
We do not directly source input materials or components from Russia and do not have any manufacturing plants in Russia or Ukraine.
This crisis did not have a material adverse effect on our results or financial condition during 2022 and we do not expect it to have a material adverse effect on our results or financial condition going forward.

Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased from 31% to 30% in 2021 compared with 2020, primarily as a result of:
- price increases,
| % of revenue | | | | | | 26 | | % | | | | 26 | | % | | | | 26 | | % | | | | | | | | | | | | |
- an increase in investments to support revenue growth;
- higher charitable contributions; and
- the reduced impact of purchase accounting adjustments and certain significant items.
Amortization of intangible assets increased $1 million, or 1%, in 2021 compared with 2020, primarily as a result of certain intangible assets acquired during 2021 and 2020.
The higher effective tax rate in 2021 compared with 2020 is primarily due to the following components:
- changes in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, which includes the impact of the location of earnings from operations and repatriation costs.
In addition, 2021 includes a tax benefit related to foreign-derived intangible income;
- a $6 million and $19 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to changes in various other tax items;
- a $1 million discrete tax expense and a $4 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in statutory tax rates; and
- a $24 million and $29 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments,
- a $5 million discrete tax expense recorded in 2020 related to changes in valuation allowances; and
- an $8 million and $4 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the effective settlement of certain issues with tax authorities.
These changes did not impact the determination of our operating segments, however they resulted in the reallocation of certain costs between segments.
In 2020, the company realigned certain management responsibilities.
These changes primarily include the following: (i) R&D costs related to our aquaculture business, which were previously reported in our international commercial segment, are now reported in Other business activities; (ii) certain other miscellaneous costs, which were previously reported in international commercial segment results, are now reported in Corporate; and (iii) certain diagnostics and other miscellaneous costs, which were previously reported in our U.S. results, are now reported in Corporate.
Certain reclassifications of prior year information have been made to conform to the current year's presentation.

Cattle product sales declined as a result of increased generic competition and challenges in the beef and dairy end-markets due to rising input costs.
The poultry portfolio declined as a result of the expanded use of lower cost alternatives and smaller flock sizes reducing disease pressure, as well as generic competition.
The decline in swine product sales was primarily due to pricing pressures on our anti-infective and vaccine portfolio and a non-recurring government purchase in the prior year.
Also contributing to growth were our key dermatology portfolio, vaccine products, the recent launches of our mAb therapies, Librela and Solensia, and diagnostics products.
Growth in cattle product sales was mainly due to the effect of marketing campaigns, key account penetration and favorable export market conditions in Brazil and favorable conditions in other emerging markets.
Sales of swine products grew as a result of expanding pork production in the wake of African Swine Fever in China in the first half of the year.
Fish growth was due to an increase in sales of the Alpha Flux sea lice treatment product, an increase in vaccine sales in key salmon markets and the 2020 acquisition of Fish Vet Group.
Lower interest income was offset by lower interest expense.
In addition, 2021 includes a tax benefit related to foreign-derived intangible income, (ii) a $7 million and $20 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to changes in other tax items, (iii) a $24 million and $29 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments, and (iv) a $1 million discrete tax expense and a $3 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in statutory tax rates, partially offset by an $8 million and $4 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the effective settlement of certain issues with tax authorities.
The higher effective tax rate for 2020, compared with 2019, was primarily attributable to (i) changes in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, which includes the impact of the location of earnings, repatriation costs, operating fluctuations in the normal course of business and the impact of non-deductible and non-taxable items, (ii) an $18 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2019 related to changes in valuation allowances, and (iii) a $4 million and $10 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the effective settlement of certain issues with tax authorities, partially offset by (i) a $20 million and $4 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to changes in other tax items, and (ii) a $29 million and $20 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 and 2019, respectively, related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments.

We use [removed: cross-currency swap contracts] [added: foreign exchange derivative instruments] designated as net investment hedges to hedge the foreign currency risks related to our investment in foreign subsidiaries.
These [removed: cross-currency swap contracts] [added: foreign exchange derivative instruments] serve to offset the foreign currency translation risk from certain of our foreign operations.
Our [removed: cross-currency swap] [added: foreign currency forward-exchange] contracts at December 31, [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] were analyzed to determine their sensitivity to foreign exchange rate changes.
If the U.S. dollar were to strengthen or weaken against all other currencies by 10%, the amount recorded in cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) within *Accumulated other comprehensive loss* related to our net investment hedge would increase or decrease by approximately [removed: $86] [added: $79] million.
Our [removed: forward-exchange contracts] [added: foreign exchange derivative instruments] at December 31, [removed: 2021] [added: 2022] were analyzed to determine their sensitivity to foreign exchange rate changes.
If the U.S. dollar were to strengthen or weaken against all other currencies by 10%, the fair value of these contracts would [removed: decrease or] increase [added: or decrease] by [removed: $2] [added: $5] million.
The foreign currency gains and losses on the assets and liabilities are recorded in *Other [removed: income (deductions)-net*.][added: (income)/deductions-net*.]
Additionally, as of December 31, [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] because we held certain interest rate swap agreements that have the economic effect of modifying the fixed-interest obligations associated with our 3.900% Senior Notes due 2028 and our 2.00% Senior Notes due 2030, a portion of the fixed-rate interest payable on these senior notes effectively became variable based on LIBOR or SOFR.
At December 31, [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] there were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding and no outstanding principal balance under our revolving credit facility.
As of December 31, [removed: 2021,] [added: 2022,] if LIBOR or SOFR-based interest rates would have been higher by 100 basis points, the change would have increased our interest expense annually by approximately $3 million, as it relates to our fixed to floating interest rate swap agreements.
A 100-basis point [removed: change] [added: increase or (decrease)] in LIBOR or SOFR-based interest rates would have resulted in [removed: an] [added: a $3 million] increase or (decrease) in the fair value of our forward-starting interest rate swaps [removed: by $47 million and $(53) million, respectively] at December 31, [removed: 2021.][added: 2022.]

In certain markets, we also sell certain companion animal products through retail and e-commerce outlets.
During 2022, we completed the acquisition of Basepaws, a privately held petcare genetics company based in the U.S., which provides pet owners with genetic tests, analytics and early health risk assessments that can help manage the health, wellness and quality of care for their pets.
We also completed the acquisition of NewMetrica, a privately held company based in Scotland, that provides scientifically-developed instruments to measure quality of life in companion animals.
On September 30, 2022, after satisfying all customary closing conditions, including clearance from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, we completed the acquisition of Jurox.
We acquired 100% of the outstanding shares for an aggregate cash purchase price of $226 million, which was adjusted to $240 million for cash and working capital and other adjustments as of the closing date.
Net cash consideration transferred to the seller was $215 million.
As of the balance sheet date, the remaining purchase consideration of $5 million was outstanding and recorded in *Other current liabilities*.
The transaction was accounted for as a business combination, with the assets acquired and liabilities assumed measured at their respective acquisition date fair values.
The table below presents the preliminary fair values allocated to the assets and liabilities of Jurox as of the acquisition date:

During 2019, we completed the acquisitions of Platinum Performance, a nutrition-focused animal health business for companion animals, and Phoenix Lab and ZNLabs, both full service veterinary reference laboratory companies with networks of labs across the U.S. These transactions did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The restructuring charges for the year ended December 31, 2019 are primarily related to the acquisition of Abaxis and CEO transition-related costs.
(a) In 2021, the *Provision for taxes on income* reflects the following:
- the change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, which includes the impact of the location of earnings from operations and repatriation costs.
- tax expense related to changes in uncertain tax positions (see *D.
Tax Contingencies*);
- a $24 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments;
- an $8 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 related to the effective settlement of certain issues with tax authorities;
- a $6 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2021 related to changes in various other tax items; and
- a $1 million discrete tax expense recorded in 2021 related to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in statutory tax rates.
(b) In 2020, the *Provision for taxes on income* reflects the following:
- a $29 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments;
- a $19 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 related to changes in various other tax items;
- a $7 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from the integration of acquired businesses;
- a $5 million discrete tax expense related to the changes in valuation allowances;
- a $4 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 related to a remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of changes in statutory tax rates; and
- a $4 million net discrete tax benefit recorded in 2020 related to the effective settlement of certain issues with tax authorities.
(c) In 2019, the *Provision for taxes on income* reflects the following:
- the impact of the Global Intangible Low-Tax Income tax, a new provision of the Tax Act, which became effective for the company in the first quarter of 2019;
- a $20 million discrete tax benefit recorded in 2019 related to the excess tax benefits for share-based payments;
