NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company”) are prepared on the same basis as its annual consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and with Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from the Company's audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, the Company's quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

Note 2 — New accounting standards

In May 2014, the FASB, in a joint effort with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued new accounting guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue. The new guidance is designed to enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets, and will affect any entity that enters into contracts with customers or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets, unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. The new guidance establishes principles for reporting information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity's contracts with customers. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those years. Although the Company's evaluation of this guidance is ongoing, the Company's preliminary assessment indicates that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that will change the requirements for accounting for leases. Under the new guidance, lessees (including lessees under both leases classified as finance leases, which are to be classified based on criteria similar to that applicable to capital leases under current guidance, and leases classified as operating leases) will recognize a right-to-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet, initially measured as the present value of lease payments under the lease. Under current guidance, operating leases are not recognized on the balance sheet. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition approach for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements; the guidance provides certain practical expedients. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance designed to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including, among other things, guidance related to accounting for income taxes, modification of the criteria for classification of awards as either equity awards or liability awards where an employer withholds shares from an employee's share-based award for tax withholding purposes, and classification on the statement of cash flows of cash payments to a tax authority by an employer that withholds shares from an employee's

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued)

(Unaudited)

award for tax withholding purposes. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2017. The Company has applied the new guidance requiring recognition of excess tax deficiencies and tax benefits in the income statement, rather than in additional paid-in-capital, as previously required. The adoption of the new standard increased net income and cash flows from operating activities by $3.4 million ( $0.07 diluted earnings per share) for the three months ended April 2, 2017. The Company will continue to estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the time of grant, rather than recognize actual forfeitures as they occur, as permitted under the new guidance.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance with regard to eight specific issues pertaining to the classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments within the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The new guidance should generally be adopted using a retrospective transition method for each period presented. Although the Company's evaluation of this guidance is ongoing, the Company's preliminary assessment indicates that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company's cash flows.

In October 2016, the FASB issued new guidance requiring companies to recognize the income tax effects of intra-entity sales and transfers of assets, other than inventory, in the income statement as income tax expense (or benefit) in the period in which the transfer occurs. Previously, recognition was prohibited until the assets were sold to an outside party or otherwise utilized. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the annual period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify the definition of a “business,” with the objective of assisting entities in evaluating whether a transaction should be accounted for as an acquisition (or disposal) of assets or as an acquisition of a business. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting, including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill and consolidation. The guidance generally defines a business as an integrated set of activities and assets (collectively referred to as a “set”) that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return to investors or other owners, members, or participants. The guidance further provides that, to be considered a business, a set must meet specified requirements. However, the guidance also states that, if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired (subject to specified exceptions) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not considered a business and no further analysis is required. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted under specified circumstances.

In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the quantitative test for goodwill impairment. Under current guidance, if a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, the entity must determine the implied value of goodwill. This determination is made by deducting the fair value of a reporting unit’s identifiable assets and liabilities from the fair value of the reporting unit as a whole as if the reporting unit had just been acquired. Under the new guidance, a determination of the implied value of goodwill will no longer be required; a goodwill impairment will be equal to the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and any interim goodwill impairment tests within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for any impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued new guidance for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans. The new guidance requires that these employers disaggregate specified components of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost (collectively, "net benefit cost"). Specifically, the guidance generally requires employers to present in the income statement the service cost component of net benefit cost in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017 and generally is required to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating

(Unaudited)

the impact of the adoption of this guidance, but currently does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations.

From time to time, new accounting guidance is issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that is adopted by the Company as of the effective date or, in some cases where early adoption is permitted, in advance of the effective date. The Company has assessed the recently issued guidance that is not yet effective and, unless otherwise indicated above, believes the new guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Note 3 — Acquisitions

On February 17, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Vascular Solutions, Inc. (“Vascular Solutions”) pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 1, 2016 (the "Merger Agreement"). Vascular Solutions is a medical device company that develops and markets products for use in minimally invasive coronary and peripheral vascular procedures. At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock of Vascular Solutions (the “Shares”), other than Shares held by Vascular Solutions, Teleflex, or their respective subsidiaries, and Shares then held by a holder who has properly asserted dissenters’ rights under applicable law, was converted into the right to receive $56.00 per Share in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding tax (the “Merger Consideration”). In addition, each outstanding option or similar right to purchase Shares (other than pursuant to the employee stock purchase program of Vascular Solutions) issued under the Vascular Solutions’ Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the "Company Options") was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the exercise price of such Company Option, subject to applicable withholding tax. The aggregate consideration transferred was approximately $975.5 million , net of cash acquired.

Transaction expenses associated with the Vascular Solutions acquisition, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of income were $8.9 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 . For the period from February 18, 2017 through April 2, 2017 , the Company recorded post acquisition revenue and operating loss of $21.6 million and $14.8 million , respectively, related to Vascular Solutions. Financial information of Vascular Solutions is presented within the "All Other" category in the Company's presentation of segment information.

The transaction was financed utilizing borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated January 20, 2017 (the "Credit Agreement"), which is described in Note 7.

The following table presents the preliminary fair value determination of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of February 17, 2017 with respect to the Vascular Solutions acquisition, which was accounted for as a business combination:

The Company is continuing to evaluate the initial purchase price allocation, and further adjustments may be necessary as a result of the Company's assessment of additional information related to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, primarily deferred tax liabilities, certain intangible assets and goodwill. The goodwill resulting from the acquisition primarily reflects synergies currently expected to be realized from the integration of the acquired business.

The following table sets forth the components of identifiable intangible assets acquired and the ranges of the useful lives as of the date of acquisition:



	Fair value	Useful life range

Amended and restated senior credit facility

On January 20, 2017, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides for a five year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $750.0 million . The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) by substantially all of the material domestic subsidiaries of the Company and are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets owned by the Company and each guarantor. The maturity date of the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement is January 20, 2022 and the term loan facility will mature on February 17, 2022.

At the Company’s option, loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% or at an alternate base rate, which is defined as the highest of (i) the publicly announced prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement, (ii) 0.5% above the federal funds rate and (iii) 1% above adjusted LIBOR for a one month interest period on such day, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.50% , in each case subject to adjustment based on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination). Overdue loans will bear interest at the rate otherwise applicable to such loans plus 2.00% .

The Company is required to maintain a maximum total consolidated leverage ratio of 4.50 to to 1.00 and a maximum consolidated senior secured leverage ratio (generally, Consolidated Senior Secured Funded Indebtedness, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the date of determination to Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination) of 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters ending on or preceding the date of determination to Consolidated Interest Expense, as defined in the Credit Agreement, paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

The Company capitalized $12.0 million related to transaction fees, including underwriters’ discounts and commissions, incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement. In addition, because the Company's entry into the Credit Agreement was considered a partial extinguishment of the indebtedness under its previously outstanding credit agreement, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.4 million for three months ended April 2, 2017 .

3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Note s - Exchange Transactions

On January 5, 2017, pursuant to separate, privately negotiated agreements between the Company and certain holders (the "Holders") of its 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes"), the Company paid cash and common stock (the "Exchange Consideration") to the Holders in exchange for $91.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes (the "Exchange Transactions"). The Exchange Consideration paid to each of the Holders per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes was equal to: (i) $1,000 in cash, (ii) a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to the amount of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes in excess of the $1,000 principal amount (the "Conversion Shares"), calculated on the basis of the average daily volume weighted average price per share of Company common stock over a specified period (the "Average Daily VWAP"), (iii) an inducement payment in additional shares of common stock (the "Inducement Shares") calculated based on the Average Daily VWAP; and (iv) cash in an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the closing date. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company paid the Holders aggregate cash consideration of approximately $93.2 million (which includes approximately $1.5 million in accrued but previously unpaid interest) and issued and delivered to the Holders approximately 0.93 million shares of Company common stock (including both Conversion Shares and Inducement Shares). The Company funded the $93.2 million cash payment constituting part of the Exchange Consideration through borrowings under its revolving credit facility. As a result of the Exchange Transactions, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.2 million .

In connection with its entry into the Exchange Transactions, the Company also entered into bond hedge unwind agreements (the "Hedge Unwind Agreements") and warrant unwind agreements (the "Warrant Unwind Agreements") with the dealer counterparties to the convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions that were effected at the time of the initial issuance of the Convertible Notes. Under the Hedge Unwind Agreements, the number of then-outstanding call options issued to the Company under the Convertible Note hedge transactions was reduced to reflect proportionately the reduction in the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes following the Exchange Transactions. Under the Warrant Unwind Agreements, the number of warrants then held by the dealer counterparties also was reduced. On a net basis, after giving effect to the Hedge Unwind Agreements and Warrant Unwind Agreements, the Company received 0.12 million shares of Company common stock from the dealer counterparties.

Fair Value of Long-Term Borrowings

To determine the fair value of the debt categorized as Level 2 in the table below, the Company uses a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve. The following table provides the fair value of the Company’s debt as of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , categorized by the level of inputs within the fair value hierarchy used to measure fair value (see Note 10, “Fair value measurement,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 for further information regarding the fair value hierarchy):

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. A portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the United States, however, include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the creditworthiness of those countries and the financial stability of their economies. Certain of the Company’s customers, particularly in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, have extended or delayed payments for products and services already provided, raising collectability concerns regarding the Company’s accounts receivable from these customers. As a result, the Company continues to closely monitor the allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to these customers. The following table shows the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts, the aggregate net current and long-term trade accounts receivable related to customers in Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and the percentage of the Company’s total net

Valuation Techniques

The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trust, which are available to satisfy benefit obligations under Company benefit plans and other arrangements. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices.

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to manage foreign currency transaction exposure as well as exposure to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The Company measures the fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts by calculating the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities, based on quoted market prices, and taking into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties.

The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 3 inputs are comprised of contingent consideration arrangements pertaining to the Company’s acquisitions. The Company determines the fair value of the liabilities for contingent consideration based on discounted cash flow analysis. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs unobservable in the market, primarily estimated sales royalties and the discount rate and, therefore, constitutes a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Note 10 — Shareholders’ equity

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner except that the weighted average number of shares is increased to include dilutive securities. The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding:



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017	March 27, 2016
	(Shares in thousands)
Basic	44,893	41,647
Dilutive effect of share-based awards	821	519
Dilutive effect of 3.875% Convertible Notes and warrants ⁽¹⁾	901	6,616
Diluted	46,615	48,782


(1)	The reduction in the dilutive effect of the Convertible Notes and warrants at April 2, 2017 as compared to March 27, 2016 is due to the Company’s repurchase of Convertible Notes and conversions by holders of the Convertible Notes subsequent to March 27, 2016.

Weighted average shares that were antidilutive and therefore excluded from the calculation of earnings per share were 0.5 million and 5.2 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , respectively.

In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, the Company entered into convertible note hedge and warrant agreements. The convertible note hedge, consisting of call options held by the Company, economically reduces the dilutive impact of the Convertible Notes. However, applicable accounting guidance requires the Company to separately address the dilutive impact of the warrants issued under the warrant agreements in computing diluted

weighted average shares outstanding, without giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options. The reduction in the number of diluted shares that would result from giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the call options would have been 0.5 million and 3.6 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , respectively. The treasury stock method is applied to the warrants because the average market price of the Company's common stock during the reporting periods presented exceeds the warrant exercise price of $74.65 per share, and assumes the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants are used by the Company to repurchase shares based on such average market price. Shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants that were included in the total diluted shares outstanding were 0.4 million and 3.0 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , respectively.

Mezzanine Equity

As of December 31, 2016, the Company reclassified $1.8 million from additional paid-in capital to convertible notes in the mezzanine equity section of the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The reclassified amount represents the aggregate difference between the principal amount and the carrying value of the Convertible Notes purchased by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Transactions (see "3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes - Exchange Transactions" within Note 7) under agreements that were entered into prior to December 31,2016, but not consummated until January 5, 2017 . No reclassification was required as of April 2, 2017 .

Note 11 — Taxes on income from continuing operations

Effective income tax rate	(7.1)%	4.9%

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 was (7.1)% and 4.9% , respectively. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended April 2, 2017 , as compared to the first quarter 2016, reflects an excess tax benefit associated with share based payments, recognized under the new FASB guidance adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2017. In addition, the Company recognized discrete tax benefits associated the acquisition of Vascular Solutions. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 27, 2016 reflects a tax benefit on the settlement of a foreign tax audit.

Note 12 — Pension and other postretirement benefits

The Company has a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. As of April 2, 2017 , no further benefits are being accrued under the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans and the Company’s other postretirement benefit plans, other than certain postretirement benefit plans covering employees subject to a collective bargaining agreement.

Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities

Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.

Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, the regulatory agencies involved and their enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At April 2, 2017 , the Company has recorded $1.1 million and $5.6 million in accrued liabilities and other liabilities, respectively, relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these liabilities and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, the potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of April 2, 2017 . The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15 - 20 years.

Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment, environmental and other matters. As of April 2, 2017 , the Company has recorded accrued liabilities of $2.4 million in connection with such contingencies, representing its best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible losses that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the amount accrued as of April 2, 2017 , $1.7 million pertains to discontinued operations.

During the first quarter 2017, Teleflex Medical Trading (Shanghai) Company, Ltd. (“Teleflex Shanghai”), one of the Company’s subsidiaries, eliminated a key distributor within its sales channel in China and undertook a distributor to direct sales conversion within that channel. On March 24, 2017, the distributor submitted an application for arbitration alleging, among other things, that Teleflex Shanghai wrongfully terminated its relationship with the distributor. The distributor is seeking $10.1 million (RMB 69.3 million ) in damages for alleged costs of transportation and dismissal of personnel, as well as lost estimated profits. In addition, the distributor is seeking to compel Teleflex Shanghai to repurchase, for $9.1 million (RMB 63.0 million ), Teleflex products that the distributor alleges are currently held in its inventory. Teleflex Shanghai intends to vigorously contest the distributor’s arbitration claim, and has filed a counterclaim seeking payment from the distributor of $8.9 million (RMB 61.2 million ) in respect of outstanding trade receivables owed by the distributor to Teleflex Shanghai. At this time, the Company is unable to make an estimate of the amount of loss, if any, or range of possible loss that the Company could incur as a result of this matter.

In 2006, the Company was named as a defendant in a wrongful death product liability lawsuit filed in the Louisiana State District Court for the Parish of Calcasieu, involving a product manufactured by the Company’s former marine business. In September 2014, the case was tried before a jury, which returned a verdict in favor of the Company. The plaintiff subsequently filed a motion for a new trial, which was granted, and the case was re-tried before a jury in December 2014. On December 5, 2014, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff, awarding $0.1 million in

(Unaudited)

compensatory damages and $23.0 million in punitive damages, plus pre- and post-judgment interest on the compensatory damages and post-judgment interest on the punitive damages. The Company filed an appeal with the Louisiana Court of Appeal, and the plaintiff filed a cross-appeal, seeking to overturn the trial court’s denial of pre-judgment interest on the punitive damages award. On June 29, 2016, the Louisiana Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court verdict in all respects. The Company and the plaintiff filed applications for a writ of certiorari (a request for review) to the Louisiana Supreme Court. On January 13, 2017, the Louisiana Supreme Court granted the Company's writ application. Oral arguments were held on May 1, 2017 and the parties currently are awaiting the court’s decision. As of April 2, 2017 , the Company has accrued a liability representing its best estimate of probable loss associated with this matter, which is included in the Company’s accrued liabilities for litigation matters relating to discontinued operations discussed in the preceding paragraph. The Company believes that any liability arising from this matter that is not covered by the Company's product liability insurance will not exceed $10.0 million .

Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that the outcome of any outstanding litigation and claims is likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to selling, general and administrative expenses in the period incurred.

Tax audits and examinations: The Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to tax examinations by various tax authorities. As of April 2, 2017 , the most significant tax examinations in process are in Canada and Germany. The Company may establish reserves with respect to its uncertain tax positions, after which it adjusts its reserves to address developments with respect to these uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, developments in tax audits and examinations, including resolution of uncertain tax positions, could result in increases or decreases to the Company’s recorded tax liabilities, which could impact the Company’s financial results.

Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and other items occurring in the ordinary conduct of its business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market prices.

Note 15 — Condensed consolidating guarantor financial information

Teleflex Incorporated (the "Parent Company") is the issuer of its 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes") and 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"). Payment of the Parent Company's obligations under the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes is guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Parent Company’s subsidiaries (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% owned by the Parent Company. The Company’s condensed consolidating statements of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , condensed consolidating balance sheets as of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , provide consolidated information for:



a.	Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;



b.	Guarantor Subsidiaries, on a combined basis;



c.	Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (i.e., those subsidiaries of the Parent Company that have not guaranteed payment of the 2024 Notes and 2026 Notes), on a combined basis; and



d.	Parent Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.

The same accounting policies as described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 are used by the Parent Company and each of its subsidiaries in connection with the condensed consolidating financial information, except for the use of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries, which are eliminated upon consolidation.

Consolidating entries and eliminations in the following condensed consolidated financial statements represent adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (b) eliminate the investments in subsidiaries and (c) record consolidating entries.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers; delays or cancellations in shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; our ability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with expectations; our ability to effectively execute our restructuring programs; our inability to realize anticipated savings from restructuring plans and programs; the impact of healthcare reform legislation and proposals to amend the legislation; changes in Medicare, Medicaid and third party coverage and reimbursements; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; global economic factors, including currency exchange rates, interest rates, sovereign debt issues and the impact of the United Kingdom’s vote to leave the European Union; difficulties entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise specifically stated by us or as required by law or regulation.

Overview

Teleflex is a global provider of medical technology products that enhance clinical benefits, improve patient and provider safety and reduce total procedural costs. We primarily design, develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We market and sell our products worldwide through a combination of our direct sales force and distributors. Because our products are used in numerous markets and for a variety of procedures, we are not dependent upon any one end-market or procedure. We are focused on achieving consistent, sustainable and profitable growth by increasing our market share and improving our operating efficiencies.

We evaluate our portfolio of products and businesses on an ongoing basis to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. Based on our evaluation, we may identify opportunities to divest businesses and product lines that do not meet our objectives. In addition, we seek to optimize utilization of our facilities through restructuring initiatives designed to further improve our cost structure and enhance our competitive position. We also may continue to explore opportunities to expand the size of our business and improve operating margins through a combination of acquisitions and distributor to direct sales conversions, which generally involve eliminating a distributor from the sales channel either by acquiring the distributor or terminating the distributor relationship (in some instances, the conversions involve our acquisition or termination of a master distributor and the continued sale of our products through sub-distributors or through new distributors). Distributor to direct conversions enable us to obtain improved product pricing and more direct access to the end users of our products within the sales channel.

On February 17, 2017, the Company acquired Vascular Solutions, Inc. (“Vascular Solutions”) for $975.5 million net of cash acquired. Vascular Solutions is a medical device company that develops and markets clinical products for use in minimally invasive coronary and peripheral vascular procedures. The acquisition is expected to meaningfully accelerate the growth of our vascular and interventional access product portfolios by facilitating our entry into the coronary and peripheral vascular market, and by generating increased cross-portfolio selling opportunities to both our and Vascular Solutions' customer bases. We financed the acquisition through a combination of borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which was increased in anticipation of the acquisition, and a new senior secured term loan facility, both of which were provided under our amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which is described in more detail below under " Borrowings " within "Liquidity and Capital Resources".

During 2016, we completed acquisitions of businesses that complement our OEM and Asia reportable operating segments. In addition, during 2016, we acquired the remaining 26% ownership interest in an Indian affiliate from the noncontrolling shareholders. The total fair value of the consideration for these transactions was $22.8 million.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 , we provided disclosure regarding our critical accounting estimates, which are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.

Results of Operations

As used in this discussion, "new products" are products that we have sold for 36 months or less, and “existing products” are products that we have sold for more than 36 months. Discussion of results of operations items that reference the effect of one or more acquired businesses (except as noted below with respect to acquired distributors) generally reflects the impact of the acquisitions within the first 12 months following the date of the acquisition. In addition to increases and decreases in the per unit selling prices of our products to our customers, our discussion of the impact of product price increases and decreases also reflects, for the first 12 months following the acquisition or termination of a distributor, the impact on the pricing of our products resulting from the elimination of the distributor from the sales channel. To the extent an acquired distributor had pre-acquisition sales of products other than ours, the impact of the post-acquisition sales of those products on our results of operations is included within our discussion of the impact of acquired businesses.

Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.

Net Revenues



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017		March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Net Revenues	$	487.9	$	424.9

Net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $63.0 million , or 14.8% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to net revenues of $24.2 million generated by the acquired businesses, mainly Vascular Solutions, and a $32.8 million increase in sales volume, primarily resulting from an increase in the number of shipping days during the 2017 period.

Gross profit



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017			March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Gross profit	$	255.6		$	225.1
Percentage of sales	52.4		%	53.0		%

Gross margin for the three months ended April 2, 2017 declined 60 basis points, or 1.1% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The decrease in gross margin primarily reflects the impact of the step-up in carrying value of inventory, recognized in connection with the Vascular Solutions' acquisition, that was sold during the first quarter 2017 partially offset by an increase in gross margin on the business excluding Vascular Solutions, which reflects the impact of higher sales volumes.

Selling, general and administrative



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017			March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Selling, general and administrative	$	164.0		$	136.3
Percentage of sales	33.6		%	32.1		%

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $27.7 million compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to a $17.6 million increase in costs associated with acquired businesses, including transaction fees and other related nonrecurring expenses resulting from the Vascular Solutions acquisition of $8.9 million, as well as an increase in selling and marketing expenses.

Research and development



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017			March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Research and development	$	17.8		$	12.4
Percentage of sales	3.6		%	2.9		%

The increase in research and development expense for the three months ended April 2, 2017 compared to the first quarter 2016 is primarily attributable to increased spending on new product development with respect to several of our segments and $2.5 million in expenses within our Vascular Solutions operating segment.

Restructuring charges



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017		March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring charges	$	12.9	$	10.0

For the three months ended April 2, 2017 , we recorded $12.9 million in restructuring charges. The charges primarily related to termination benefits associated with the 2017 EMEA restructuring program and the 2017 Vascular Solutions integration program, both of which are described below, of $7.1 million and $4.5 million , respectively.

For the three months ended March 27, 2016 , we recorded $10.0 million in restructuring charges, which primarily related to termination benefits associated with the 2016 footprint realignment plan.

In addition to the restructuring programs initiated during the first quarter 2017, we have other ongoing restructuring programs related to the consolidation of our manufacturing operations (referred to as our 2016 and 2014 footprint realignment plans) as well as restructuring programs designed to improve operating efficiencies and reduce costs. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report. With respect to our restructuring plans and programs, the following table summarizes (1) the estimated total cost and estimated annual pre-tax savings once the programs are completed; (2) the costs incurred and estimated pre-tax savings realized through December 31, 2016; and (3) the costs expected to be incurred and estimated incremental pre-tax savings estimated to be realized for these programs from January 1, 2017 through the anticipated completion dates:



	Ongoing Restructuring Plans and Programs
	Estimated Total	Through December 31, 2016	Estimated Remaining from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2021 ₍₂₎
	(Dollars in millions)
Restructuring charges	$51 - $60	$33	$18 - $27
Restructuring related charges ₍₁₎	53 - 65	30	23 - 35
Total charges	$104 - $125	63	$41 - $62

Pre-tax savings ₍₃₎	$60 - $71	31	$29 - $40
Vascular Solutions integration program - synergies	$20 - $25	—	$20 - $25


(1)	Restructuring related charges principally constitute accelerated depreciation and other costs primarily related to the transfer of manufacturing operations to new locations and are expected to be recognized primarily in cost of goods sold.


(2)	We expect to incur substantially all of the costs prior to the end of 2018, and to have realized substantially all of the estimated annual pre-tax savings and synergies by the year ended December 31, 2019.

(3)

Approximately 65% of the savings is expected to result in reductions to cost of goods sold. During 2016, in connection with our execution of the 2014 footprint realignment plan, we implemented changes to medication delivery devices included in certain of our kits, which are expected to result in increased product costs (and therefore reduce the annual savings that were estimated at the inception of the program). However, we also expect to achieve improved pricing on these kits to offset the cost, which is expected to result in estimated annual increased revenues of $5 million to $6 million. We expect to begin realizing the benefits of this incremental pricing in 2017. Savings generated from restructuring programs are difficult to estimate, given the nature and timing of the restructuring activities and the possibility that unanticipated expenditures may be required as the program progresses. Moreover, predictions of revenues related to increased pricing are particularly uncertain and can be affected by a number of factors, including customer resistance to price increases and competition.

The following provides additional details with respect to our programs initiated in 2017:

2017 Vascular Solutions Integration Program

During the first quarter 2017, we committed to a restructuring program related to the integration of Vascular Solutions' operations with our operations. We initiated the program in the first quarter 2017 and expect the program to be substantially completed by the end of the second quarter 2018. We estimate that we will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $6.0 million to $7.5 million related to this program, of which $4.5 million to $5.3 million will constitute termination benefits, and $1.5 million to $2.2 million will relate to other exit costs, including employee relocation and outplacement costs. Additionally, we expect to incur $2.5 million to $3.0 million of restructuring related charges consisting primarily of retention bonuses offered to certain employees expected to remain with the Company after completion of the program. All of these charges will result in future cash outlays. We began realizing program-related synergies in the first quarter 2017 and expect to achieve annualized pre-tax synergies of $20 million to $25 million once the program is fully implemented.

2017 EMEA Restructuring Program

During the first quarter 2017, we committed to a restructuring program to centralize certain administrative functions in Europe. The program will commence in the second quarter 2017 and is expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2018. We estimate that we will record aggregate pre-tax restructuring charges of $7.1 million to $8.5 million related to this program, almost all of which constitute termination benefits, and all of which will result in future cash outlays. We expect to achieve annualized pre-tax savings of $2.7 million to $3.3 million once the program is fully implemented and expect to begin realizing plan related savings in the first quarter 2018.

Interest expense



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017			March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Interest expense	$	17.7		$	13.8
Average interest rate on debt	3.5		%	3.5		%

The increase in interest expense for the three months ended April 2, 2017 compared to the first quarter 2016 was primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding, mainly borrowings under the Credit Agreement that were utilized to fund the Vascular Solutions acquisition, in addition to interest expense of $2.1 million incurred in connection with a bridge facility (the "Bridge Facility") and backstop commitment (the "Backstop Commitment") related to our entry into the agreement and plan of merger under which we ultimately acquired Vascular Solutions. The Bridge Facility and Backstop Commitment were put in place on December 1, 2016 to, among other things, enable us to finance the acquisition of Vascular Solutions. The Bridge Facility and Backstop Commitment were not utilized, as the required financing was provided under the Credit Agreement, which amended and restated the agreement relating to our then-existing credit facility.

Loss on extinguishment of debt



	Three Months Ended
	April 2, 2017		March 27, 2016
	(Dollars in millions)
Loss on extinguishment of debt	$	5.6	$	—

For the three months ended April 2, 2017 , we recognized a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $5.6 million, of which $5.2 million related to our repurchase of Convertible Notes through exchange transactions we entered into with certain holders of the Convertible Notes and $0.4 million related to the amendment and restatement of our previous credit agreement, which was considered a partial extinguishment of debt.

Comparison of the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016

Vascular North America

Vascular North America net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $ 12.3 million , or 15.0% compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to a $9.0 million increase in sales volume, including the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days in the first quarter 2017.

Vascular North America operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $ 5.1 million , or 26.3% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit resulting from an increase in sales volume, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

Anesthesia North America

Anesthesia North America net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $ 2.2 million , or 4.9% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to a $4.0 million increase in sales volumes resulting from the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days in the first quarter 2017 as well as new product sales and price increases. The increase in net revenues was partially offset by a $3.3 million decrease in sales volumes of existing products excluding the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days in the first quarter 2017.

Anesthesia North America operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $ 1.3 million , or 11.1% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit, reflecting lower manufacturing costs and the impact of favorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates partially offset by a decrease in sales of higher margin products, and an increase in research and development expenses.

Surgical North America

Surgical North America net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $ 7.1 million , or 18.0% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to a $3.9 million increase in sales volume, including the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days in the first quarter 2017, and an increase in new product sales of $2.4 million.

Surgical North America operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $3.1 million , or 23.6% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit due to an increase in sales volume and new product sales, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

EMEA

EMEA net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $8.6 million , or 7.1% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an $11.2 million increase in sales volume, including the impact of an increase in the number of shipping days in the first quarter 2017, partially offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates of $4.2 million.

EMEA operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $1.3 million , or 5.7% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit, largely resulting from the increase in sales volume partially offset by the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The increase in operating profit was partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.

Asia

Asia net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 decreased $0.2 million , or 0.4% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.6 million decrease in sales volumes including the impact of a distributor to direct sales conversion in China, partially offset by an increase in new product sales and price increases. As previously disclosed, we expect to continue to experience a decline in sales and operating profit in our Asia segment during 2017 as our former distributor liquidates its inventory of our products and we implement our new structure to support these sales. However, the distributor recently commenced an arbitration proceeding against us, seeking, among other things, to compel our repurchase of Teleflex products that the distributor alleges are currently held in its inventory. See Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Asia operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 decreased $ 2.2 million or 17.0% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The decrease is primarily attributable to an increase in selling expenses, as well as a decrease in gross profit resulting from the impact of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, lower sales volumes and a decrease in sales of higher margin products.

OEM

OEM net revenues for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $9.3 million , or 27.6% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to a $7.3 million increase in sales volume of existing products and net revenues generated by acquired businesses of $2.6 million.

OEM operating profit for the three months ended April 2, 2017 increased $3.9 million , or 75.8% , compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in gross profit due to the increase in sales volume, which also had a favorable impact on manufacturing costs, and profit generated by the acquired businesses. The increases in operating profit were partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses as well as research and development expenses.

All Other

Net revenues for our other operating segments increased $23.7 million , or 44.5% , for the three months ended April 2, 2017 compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase is primarily attributable to net revenues of $21.6 million generated by sales of Vascular Solutions' products.

Operating profit for our other operating segments decreased $12.0 million or 209.7% for the three months ended April 2, 2017 , compared to the first quarter 2016. The decrease is primarily attributable to higher operating expenses resulting from the Vascular Solutions acquisition, including transaction fees and related expenses, which were partially offset by an increase in gross profit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our cash flow from operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and borrowings under our revolving credit facility and our accounts receivable securitization facilities will enable us to fund our operating requirements, capital expenditures and debt obligations for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We have net cash provided by United States based operating activities as well as non-United States sources of cash available to help fund our debt service requirements in the United States. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by monitoring the funds available among our subsidiaries and determining the extent to which we can access those funds on a cost effective basis. We are not aware of any restrictions on repatriation of these funds and, subject to cash payment of additional United States income taxes or foreign withholding taxes, these funds could be repatriated, if necessary. Any resulting additional taxes could be offset, at least in part, by foreign tax credits. The amount of any taxes required to be paid, which could be significant, and the application of tax credits would be determined based on income tax laws in effect at the time of such repatriation. We do not expect any such repatriation to result in additional tax expense because taxes have been provided for on unremitted foreign earnings that we do not consider permanently reinvested.

To date, we have not experienced significant payment defaults by our customers, and we have sufficient lending commitments in place to enable us to fund our anticipated additional operating needs. However, although there have been recent improvements in certain countries, global financial markets remain volatile and the global credit markets are constrained, which creates a risk that our customers and suppliers may be unable to access liquidity. Consequently, we continue to monitor our credit risk, particularly with respect to customers in Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain, and consider other mitigation strategies. As of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net trade accounts receivable from publicly funded hospitals in Italy, Spain, Portugal and Greece were $22.9 million and $29.2 million, respectively. As of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016, our net trade accounts receivable from customers in these countries were approximately 16.4% and 19.3%, respectively of our consolidated net trade accounts receivable. For the three months ended April 2, 2017 and March 27, 2016 , net revenues from customers in these countries were 6.5% and 7.3% of total net revenues, respectively, and average days that current and long-term trade accounts receivables were outstanding were 155 days and 215 days, respectively. If economic conditions in these countries deteriorate, we may experience significant credit losses related to the public hospital systems in these countries. Moreover, if global economic conditions generally deteriorate, we may experience further delays in customer payments, reductions in our customers’ purchases and higher credit losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flows in 2017 and future years. In January 2017, we sold $16.1 million of receivables payable from publicly funded hospitals in Italy for $16.0 million.

Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations provided net cash of approximately $90.9 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 as compared to $66.8 million for the three months ended March 27, 2016 . The $24.1 million increase is attributable to a net favorable impact from changes in working capital and favorable operating results despite transaction costs and related expenses incurred in connection with the Vascular Solutions acquisition of $8.9 million, partially offset by an increase in the cash outflow for income taxes receivable payable, net resulting from fewer refunds in the first quarter 2017 as compared to the first quarter 2016. The increase in net cash inflow from working capital is primarily the result of an increase in cash inflows for accounts receivable. The cash inflow for accounts receivable was $18.7 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 as compared to an outflow of $10.6 million for the three months ended March 27, 2016 . The increase is attributable to improved collections as well as the sale of receivables outstanding with publicly funded hospitals in Italy for $16.0 million.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $982.1 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 , primarily resulting from the payment for the Vascular Solutions acquisition of $975.5 million , capital expenditures of $12.9 million , which were partially offset by proceeds of $6.3 million from the sale of two properties, one of which had been classified as a held for sale building asset.

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations was $1,021.3 million for the three months ended April 2, 2017 , primarily resulting from a net increase in borrowings of $1,056.2 million . There was an increase in borrowings under the Credit Agreement, which was utilized to finance the Vascular Solutions acquisition, partially offset by a reduction in borrowings under the Convertible Notes resulting from the Exchange Transactions. Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operation was also impacted by dividend payments of $15.3 million and debt issuance and amendment fees of $19.1 million , which included fees paid in connection with the signing of the Credit Agreement and a Bridge Facility and Backstop Commitment, which was also put in place to assist with the financing

of the Vascular Solutions acquisition, but never utilized as the required financing was provided under the Credit Agreement .

Borrowings

Our 3.875% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the "Convertible Notes") are convertible under certain circumstances, as described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Since the fourth quarter 2013, our closing stock price has exceeded the threshold for conversion. Moreover, commencing on May 1, 2017 and through July 28, 2017, the Convertible Notes are convertible regardless of the closing price of our stock. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes were classified as a current liability as of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . We have elected a net settlement method to satisfy our conversion obligations, under which we settle the principal amount of the Convertible Notes in cash and settle the excess of the conversion value of the Convertible Notes over the principal amount of the notes in shares; however, cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares. The Convertible Notes will mature in August 2017.

In January 2017, we acquired $91.7 million aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes in exchange for an aggregate of $93.2 million in cash (including approximately $1.5 million in accrued and previously unpaid interest) and approximately 0.93 million shares of our common stock (the “Exchange Transactions”). We funded the cash portion of the consideration paid through borrowings under our revolving credit facility. While we believe we have sufficient liquidity to repay the remaining 44.3 million outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes through a combination of our existing cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility, our use of these funds could adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity.

On January 20, 2017, we entered into the Credit Agreement, which provides for a five-year revolving credit facility of $1.0 billion and a term loan facility of $750.0 million. The availability of loans under our revolving credit facility is dependent upon our ability to maintain continued compliance with the financial and other covenants contained in the Credit Agreement. Moreover, additional borrowings would be prohibited if an event resulting in a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Credit Agreement) were to occur. Notwithstanding these restrictions, we believe our revolving credit facility provides us with significant flexibility to meet our foreseeable working capital needs.

The Credit Agreement and the indentures under which we issued our 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and 2026 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur additional debt or issue preferred stock or other disqualified stock; create liens; pay dividends, make investments or make other restricted payments; sell assets; merge, consolidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets; or enter into transactions with our affiliates. The Credit Agreement also requires us to maintain a consolidated total leverage ratio (generally, the ratio of Consolidated Total Funded Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 4.50 to 1.00 and a maximum senior secured leverage ratio (generally, consolidated senior secured funded indebtedness on the date of determination to adjusted consolidated EBITDA for the four most recent quarters preceding the date of determination) of 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is further required to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio (generally, consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the four most recent fiscal quarters preceding the date of determination to consolidated interest expense paid in cash for such period) of not less than 3.50 to 1.00.

As of April 2, 2017 , we were in compliance with these covenants. The obligations under the Credit Agreement, the 2024 Notes and the 2026 Notes are guaranteed (subject to certain exceptions) by substantially all of our material domestic subsidiaries, and the obligations under the Credit Agreement are (subject to certain exceptions and limitations) secured by a lien on substantially all of assets owned by us and each guarantor.

See Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information regarding the Exchange Transactions and the Credit Agreement.

New Accounting Standards

See Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for a discussion of recently issued accounting standards, including estimated effects, if any, on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Management’s assessment of disclosure controls and procedures excluded consideration of Vascular Solutions’ internal control over financial reporting. Vascular Solutions was acquired during the first quarter of 2017, and the exclusion is consistent with guidance provided by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from management’s report on internal control over financial reporting for up to one year from the date of acquisition, subject to specified conditions. Vascular Solutions’ total assets were approximately $1.2 billion as of April 2, 2017; its revenues during the three months ended April 2, 2017 were approximately $21.6 million.

(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As a result of our acquisition of Vascular Solutions, we are in the process of evaluating Vascular Solutions’ internal controls to determine the extent to which modifications to Vascular Solutions internal controls would be appropriate.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability and product warranty, intellectual property, contracts, employment and environmental matters. As of April 2, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we have accrued liabilities of approximately $2.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively, in connection with these matters, representing our best estimate of the cost within the range of estimated possible loss that will be incurred to resolve these matters. Of the $2.4 million accrued at April 2, 2017 , $1.7 million pertains to discontinued operations. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. See “Litigation” within Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for additional information.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended April 2, 2017 . See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .
