NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(1.) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Integer Holdings Corporation (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “Integer” or the “Company”) is a publicly traded corporation listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “ITGR.” Integer is one of the largest medical device outsource manufacturers in the world serving the cardiac, neuromodulation, vascular and portable medical markets. The Company provides innovative, high-quality medical technologies that enhance the lives of patients worldwide. In addition, it develops batteries for high-end niche applications in the energy, military, and environmental markets. The Company’s reportable segments are: (1) Medical and (2) Non-Medical. The Company’s customers include large multi-national original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and their affiliated subsidiaries.
On May 3, 2018, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Advanced Surgical and Orthopedic product lines (the “AS&O Product Line”) within its Medical segment to Viant (formerly MedPlast, LLC), and on July 2, 2018, completed the sale for $600 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. As a result, the Company classified the results of operations of the AS&O Product Line as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented and classified the related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations as held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows includes cash flows related to the discontinued operations due to Integer’s (parent) centralized treasury and cash management processes, and accordingly cash flow amounts for discontinued operations are disclosed in Note 2 “Discontinued Operations.” The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 29, 2017 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements and has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect discontinued operations. All results and information in the condensed consolidated financial statements is presented as continuing operations and exclude the AS&O Product Line unless otherwise noted specifically as discontinued operations. Refer to Note 2 “Discontinued Operations” and Note 17 “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information (Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, Interim Reporting) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information necessary for a full presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the Company for the periods presented. Intercompany transactions and balances have been fully eliminated in consolidation.
Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, certain components of equity, sales, expenses, and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2017.
The Company utilizes a fifty-two, fifty-three week fiscal year ending on the Friday nearest December 31. The second quarter of 2018 and 2017 each contained 13 weeks and ended on June 29, and June 30, respectively. The Company’s 2018 and 2017 fiscal years will end or ended on December 28, 2018 and December 29, 2017, respectively.

(2.) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On May 3, 2018, the Company announced that it entered into a definitive agreement to sell its AS&O Product Line to Viant, and on July 2, 2018, completed the sale for $600 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Refer to Note 17 “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
For disposal transactions, a component of an entity that is anticipated to be sold in the future is reported in discontinued operations after it meets the criteria for held-for-sale classification, and if the disposition represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results. The Company evaluated the quantitative and qualitative factors related to the expected sale of the AS&O Product Line and concluded that it met the held-for-sale criteria and that all other conditions for discontinued operations presentation were met as of May 3, 2018. Property, plant and equipment are not depreciated, and intangibles assets are not amortized once classified as held-for-sale.
As a result, the operating results of the AS&O Product Line have been classified as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and for all periods presented and the assets and liabilities of the AS&O Product Line have been classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 29, 2018 and December 29, 2017. The discontinued operations of the AS&O Product Line are reported in the Medical segment.
The assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation held for sale, other than goodwill, are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The assets of the AS&O Product Line, other than goodwill based on relative fair value, are measured at carrying amount. The fair value of the AS&O Product Line assets was based primarily on the purchase price of $600 million. In accordance with the guidance set forth in ASC 350, the Company calculated the portion of goodwill included in the AS&O Product Line and, using a relative fair value approach, allocated goodwill to discontinued operations from the Medical segment.
As of June 29 2018, all assets and liabilities of the AS&O Product Line are presented as current in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as management believes the sale transaction is deemed probable and proceeds will be collected within one year. The carrying amounts of the AS&O Product Line assets and liabilities that were classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations held for sale were as follows (in thousands):

Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 1,204 |  |  | $ | 6,755 |

Senior Secured Credit Facilities
The Company has senior secured credit facilities (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) consisting of (i) a $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a $375 million term loan A facility (the “TLA Facility”), and (iii) a $1,025 million term loan B facility (the “TLB Facility”). The TLA Facility and TLB Facility are collectively referred to as the “Term Loan Facilities.” The TLB facility was issued at a 1% discount.
On June 8, 2018, the Company amended the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to permit the sale of the AS&O Product Line, provided that the net cash proceeds from the sale be applied first, to redeem all of the Company’s outstanding 9.125% Senior Notes due 2023, second to repay the outstanding balance of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility, and third, to the extent of any remaining net cash proceeds, to prepay outstanding loans under the TLB Facility. The amendment also amends the definition of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) to permit adjustments consisting of certain non-recurring actual expenses incurred in connection with the sale of the AS&O Product Line.
The Company completed the sale of the AS&O Product Line on July 2, 2018 and subsequently utilized the net cash proceeds to repay the debt in accordance with the amended terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities. Refer to Note 17 “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
Revolving Credit Facility
The Revolving Credit Facility matures on October 27, 2020. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a $15 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $25 million sublimit for standby letters of credit. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, which will range between 0.175% and 0.25%, depending on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement). Interest rates on the Revolving Credit Facility, as well as the TLA Facility, are at the Company’s option, either at: (i) the prime rate plus the applicable margin, which will range between 0.75% and 2.25%, based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio, or (ii) the applicable LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin, which will range between 1.75% and 3.25%, based on the Company’s Total Net Leverage Ratio.
As of June 29, 2018, the Company had $74 million million of outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Facility and an available borrowing capacity of $116.8 million after giving effect to $9.2 million of outstanding standby letters of credit. As of June 29, 2018, the weighted average interest rate on all outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility was 5.34%.
Subject to certain conditions, commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility may be increased through an incremental revolving facility so long as, on a pro forma basis, the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25:1.00. The outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Facility approximated its fair value as of June 29, 2018 based upon the debt being variable rate and short-term in nature.

Term Loan Facilities
The TLA Facility and TLB Facility mature on October 27, 2021 and October 27, 2022, respectively. Interest rates on the TLB Facility are, at the Company’s option, either at: (i) the prime rate plus 2.25% or (ii) the applicable LIBOR rate plus 3.25%, with LIBOR subject to a 1.00% floor. As of June 29, 2018, the interest rates on the TLA Facility and TLB Facility were 5.36% and 5.30%, respectively. Additionally, if the Company receives both (a) a public corporate family credit rating from Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. of “B2” (stable outlook) or higher and (b) a public corporate credit rating from Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC of “B” (stable outlook) or higher, the interest rate margins for the TLB Facility will step down by an additional 25 basis points. Refer to Note 17 “Subsequent Events” for additional information.
Subject to certain conditions, one or more incremental term loan facilities may be added to the Term Loan Facilities so long as, on a pro forma basis, the Company’s first lien net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25:1.00.
As of June 29, 2018, the estimated fair value of the TLB Facility was approximately $815 million, based on quoted market prices for the debt, recent sales prices for the debt and consideration of comparable debt instruments with similar interest rates and trading frequency, among other factors, and is classified as Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy. The par amount of the TLA Facility approximated its fair value as of June 29, 2018 based upon the debt being variable rate in nature.
Covenants
The Revolving Credit Facility and TLA Facility contain covenants requiring (A) a maximum Total Net Leverage Ratio of 6.0:1.00, subject to periodic step downs beginning in the third quarter of 2018 and (B) a minimum interest coverage ratio of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) to interest expense of not less than 2.75:1.00 subject to a step up beginning in the first quarter of 2019.

Interest Rate Swap
During 2016, the Company entered into a three-year $200 million interest rate swap to hedge against potential changes in cash flows on the outstanding variable rate debt, which is indexed to the one-month LIBOR rate. The variable rate received on the interest rate swap and the variable rate paid on the outstanding debt will have the same rate of interest, excluding the credit spread, and will reset and pay interest on the same date. The swap is being accounted for as a cash flow hedge.
Information regarding the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge as of June 29, 2018 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Notional Amount |  | Start Date |  | End Date |  | Pay Fixed Rate |  | Receive Current Floating Rate |  | Fair Value |  | Balance Sheet Location

The estimated fair value of the interest rate swap agreement represents the amount the Company would receive (pay) to terminate the contract. No portion of the change in fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap during the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 was considered ineffective. The amounts recorded to Interest Expense during the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 related to the Company’s interest rate swap were reductions of $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The estimated Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to the Company’s interest rate swaps that is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months is a $2.5 million gain.

During the six months ended June 29, 2018, the Company awarded grants of 0.3 million RSUs to certain members of management, of which 0.2 million are PSUs and the remainder are time-based RSUs that vest over three years. Of the PSUs, 0.1 million of the shares subject to each grant will be earned based upon achievement of specific Company performance metrics over a three-year performance period ending January 1, 2021, and 0.1 million of the shares subject to each grant will be earned based on the Company’s achievement of a relative total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance requirement, on a percentile basis, compared to a defined group of peer companies over a three-year performance period ending January 1, 2021. The number of PSUs earned based on the achievement of the Company performance metrics and TSR performance requirements, if any, will vest based on the recipient’s continuous service to the Company over a period of generally one to three years from the grant date. The time-based RSUs generally vest ratably over a three-year period.
The grant-date fair value of the TSR portion of the PSUs granted during the six months ended June 29, 2018 was determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model on the date of grant, assuming the following (i) expected term of 2.92 years, (ii) risk free interest rate of 2.28%, (iii) expected dividend yield of 0.0% and (iv) expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the TSR award of 40%. The grant-date fair value of all other restricted stock awards is equal to the closing market price of Integer common stock on the date of grant.

Strategic Reorganization and Alignment
During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company began to take steps to better align its resources in order to enhance the profitability of its portfolio of products. This includes improving its business processes and redirecting investments away from projects where the market does not justify the investment, as well as aligning resources with market conditions and the Company’s future strategic direction. The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax charges in connection with the strategic reorganization and alignment plan, including projects currently classified as discontinued operations, of between approximately $28 million to $30 million, of which an estimated $16 million to $20 million are expected to result in cash outlays. During the six months ended June 29, 2018, the Company incurred charges relating to this initiative which primarily included severance and personnel related costs for terminated employees and fees for professional services. These expenses were primarily recorded within the Medical segment. As of June 29, 2018, total expense incurred for this initiative since inception, including amounts reported in discontinued operations, was $15.5 million. These actions are expected to be substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2018.

(8.) OTHER OPERATING EXPENSES (Continued)
Manufacturing Alignment to Support Growth
In 2017, the Company initiated several initiatives designed to reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies and increase manufacturing capacity to accommodate growth. The plan involves the relocation of certain manufacturing operations and expansion of certain of the Company's facilities. The Company estimates that it will incur aggregate pre-tax restructuring related charges in connection with the realignment plan of between approximately $9 million to $11 million, the majority of which are expected to be cash expenditures, and capital expenditures of between approximately $4 million to $6 million. Costs related to the Company’s manufacturing alignment to support growth initiative were primarily recorded within the Medical segment. As of June 29, 2018, total expense incurred for this initiative since inception, including amounts reported in discontinued operations, was $2.0 million. These actions are expected to be substantially completed by the end of 2019.
Consolidation and Optimization Initiatives
In 2014, the Company initiated plans to transfer certain manufacturing functions performed at its facility in Beaverton, OR to a new facility in Tijuana, Mexico. Additionally, during 2016, the Company announced it would be closing its facility in Clarence, NY after transferring the machined component product lines manufactured in that facility to other Integer locations in the U.S. Costs related to the Company’s consolidation and optimization initiatives were primarily recorded within the Medical segment. The Company does not expect to incur any material additional costs associated with these activities are substantially complete.
The following table summarizes the change in accrued liabilities related to the initiatives described above (in thousands):

| Severance and Retention |  | Other |  | Total

Acquisition and Integration Expenses
The Company did not incur any additional costs associated with these activities during the six months ended June 29, 2018. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred $3.0 million and $7.8 million in acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of Lake Region Medical, consisting primarily of integration costs. Integration costs primarily include professional, consulting, severance, retention, relocation, and travel costs. The $0.4 million of acquisition and integration costs accrued as of December 29, 2017 were paid during the first quarter of 2018. These projects were completed as of December 29, 2017.
Asset Dispositions, Severance and Other
During the first six months of 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded losses in connection with various asset disposals and/or write-downs. The 2017 amount also includes approximately $5.3 million in expense related to the Company’s leadership transitions, which were recorded within the corporate unallocated segment.

(9.) INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to several factors, including discrete items, changes in the mix and amount of pre-tax income and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws and foreign tax holidays, business reorganizations, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Reform Act”) was signed into law making significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Changes include, but are not limited to, a corporate tax rate decrease from 35% to 21% effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the transition of U.S international taxation from a worldwide tax system to a territorial system, and a one-time transition tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of cumulative foreign earnings as of December 31, 2017.
Under GAAP, the effect of a change in tax laws or rates to be recognized in income from continuing operations for the period that includes the enactment date. As such, the Company recognized an estimate of the impact of the Tax Reform Act in the year ended December 29, 2017. The Company had an estimated $147.5 million of undistributed foreign earnings and profit subject to the deemed mandatory repatriation as of December 29, 2017 and recognized a provisional $14.7 million in 2017 for the one-time transition tax. The Company has sufficient U.S. net operating losses to offset cash tax liabilities associated with the repatriation tax. In addition, as a result of the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% under the Tax Reform Act, the Company revalued its ending net deferred tax liabilities at December 29, 2017 and recognized a $56.5 million tax benefit in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the year ended December 29, 2017. For further discussion of the impact of the Tax Reform Act for the year ended December 29, 2017, reference is made to Note 12 of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 29, 2017 included in the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2017.
On December 22, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 118 to address the application of GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed (including computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act. The Company recognized the tax impact of the revaluation of deferred tax assets and liabilities and the provisional tax impact related to deemed repatriated earnings and included these amounts in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 29, 2017. The ultimate impact may differ from the provisional amount, possibly materially, due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may take as a result of the Tax Reform Act. This accounting is expected to be complete by the date that the Company’s 2017 U.S. corporate income tax return is filed in 2018. During the six month period ended June 29, 2018, there were no changes made to the provisional amount recorded in 2017.
In addition to the reduction of the U.S. federal corporate tax rate and the one-time transition tax discussed above, the Tax Reform Act also established new tax laws that affect 2018, including, but not limited to: (i) a general elimination of U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; (ii) a new U.S. Income inclusion on certain earnings of foreign subsidiaries (Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”)); (iii) the repeal of the domestic production activity deductions; (iv) limitations on the deductibility of certain executive compensation; (v) an elimination of the deduction for certain deemed “base erosion payments” made to foreign affiliates (Base Erosion and Anti-Abuse Tax (“BEAT”)); and (vi) a new provision that allows a domestic corporation an immediate deduction for a portion of its foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”).

(9.) INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The GILTI provisions require the Company to include foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of a deemed return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets in its U.S. income tax return. The Company expects that it will be subject to incremental U.S. tax on GILTI income beginning in 2018. Because of the complexity of the new GILTI tax rules and the ongoing regulatory interpretation of the GILTI provisions, the Company is continuing its evaluation of this provision of the Tax Reform Act and the application of ASC 740, Income Taxes. Under GAAP, the Company is allowed to make an accounting policy choice of either (1) treating taxes due on future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI as a current period expense when incurred (the “period cost method”) or (2) factoring such amounts into the Company's measurement of its deferred taxes (the “deferred method”). The Company's selection of an accounting policy with respect to the new GILTI tax rules will depend, in part, on analyzing its global income to determine whether it expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI and, if so, what the impact is expected to be. Whether the Company expects to have future U.S. inclusions in taxable income related to GILTI depends on not only the Company's current structure and estimated future results of global operations, but also its intent and ability to modify its structure. While the Company has included an estimate of GILTI in its estimated effective tax rate for 2018, it has not finalized its analysis and is not yet able to determine which method to elect. Adjustments related to the amount of GILTI Tax recorded in its condensed consolidated financial statements may be required based on the outcome of this election.
The BEAT provisions in the Tax Reform Act eliminate the deduction of certain base-erosion payments made to related foreign corporations, and impose a minimum tax if greater than regular tax.
The Company does not expect to be materially impacted by the BEAT or FDII provisions and has not included any impact of the provisions in its estimated effective tax rate for 2018, however, it is still in the process of analyzing the effect of these provisions of the Tax Reform Act.
The Company’s worldwide effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2018 was 27.5% on $31.8 million of income from continuing operations before taxes compared to 2.6% on $9.8 million of income from continuing operations before taxes for the same period in 2017. The Company recognized a tax provision of $14.1 million on income from continuing operations before taxes of $50.3 million for the first six months of 2018 compared to $1.0 million on $13.6 million of income from continuing operations before taxes for the same period of 2017. The 2018 estimated annual effective tax rate includes the estimated impact of all Tax Reform Act provisions.
The Company’s effective tax rate for 2018 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due principally to the estimated impact of the GILTI tax. The Company’s earnings outside the United States are generally taxed at blended rates that are marginally lower than the U.S. federal rate. The GILTI provisions require the Company to include foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of a deemed return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets in its U.S. income tax return. There is a statutory deduction of 50% of the GILTI inclusion, however the deduction is subject to limitations based on U.S. taxable income. The Company currently has net operating losses to offset forecasted U.S. taxable income and as such, is temporarily subject to the deduction limitation which correspondingly imposes an incremental impact on U.S. income tax. The foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates and where its foreign earnings are primarily derived, include Switzerland, Mexico, Germany, Uruguay, Malaysia and Ireland.
The Company’s effective tax rate for 2017 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 35% due principally to the Company’s earnings outside the U.S. which are generally taxed at rates lower than the U.S. federal rate. In addition, the Company had positive income before taxes in its foreign jurisdictions but losses before taxes in U.S. jurisdictions.
As of June 29, 2018, the balance of unrecognized tax benefits from continuing operations is approximately $6.5 million. It is reasonably possible that a reduction of up to $1.1 million of the balance of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next twelve months as a result of potential audit settlements. Approximately $6.2 million of the balance of unrecognized tax benefits would favorably impact the effective tax rate, net of federal benefit on state issues, if recognized.
(10.) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
The Company is subject to litigation arising from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. The Company does not expect that the ultimate resolution of any pending legal actions will have a material effect on its consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. As such, there can be no assurance that any pending legal action, which the Company currently believes to be immaterial, will not become material in the future.

(10.) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)
In April 2013, the Company commenced an action against AVX Corporation and AVX Filters Corporation (collectively “AVX”) alleging that AVX had infringed on the Company’s patents by manufacturing and selling filtered feedthrough assemblies used in implantable pacemakers and cardioverter defibrillators that incorporate the Company’s patented technology. On January 26, 2016, a jury in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware returned a verdict finding that AVX infringed two Integer patents and awarded Integer $37.5 million in damages. Following a second trial in August 2017, a jury found that AVX infringed an additional Integer patent. On March 30, 2018, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware vacated the original damage award and ordered a retrial on damages, which is scheduled for January 2019. The Company has recorded no gains in connection with this litigation as no cash has been received.
Product Warranties
The Company generally warrants that its products will meet customer specifications and will be free from defects in materials and workmanship. The Company does not expect future product warranty claims will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance that any future customer complaints or negative regulatory actions regarding the Company’s products, which the Company currently believes to be immaterial, does not become material in the future. The change in product warranty liability was comprised of the following (in thousands):

December 29, 2017 | $ | 2,820 |
Additions to warranty reserve | 555 |
Warranty claims settled | (78 | )
June 29, 2018 | $ | 3,297 |

Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company periodically enters into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in its international operations. The Company has designated these foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portions of the unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are reported in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are reclassified to earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. The estimated Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income related to the Company’s foreign currency contracts that is expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months is a $0.7 million gain.
The impact to the Company’s results of operations from its forward contract hedges is as follows (in thousands):

Fair value measurement standards apply to certain financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (each reporting period). For the Company, these financial assets and liabilities include its derivative instruments. The Company does not have any nonfinancial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company also holds cost method and equity method investments which are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.
Foreign Currency Contracts
The fair value of foreign currency contracts were determined through the use of cash flow models that utilize observable market data inputs to estimate fair value. These observable market data inputs included foreign exchange rate and credit spread curves. In addition, the Company received fair value estimates from the foreign currency contract counterparties to verify the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates. The Company’s foreign currency contracts are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Refer to Note 10 “Commitments and Contingencies” for further discussion regarding the fair value of the Company’s foreign currency contracts.
Interest Rate Swaps
The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap contracts outstanding were determined through the use of a cash flow model that utilizes observable market data inputs. These observable market data inputs include LIBOR, swap rates, and credit spread curves. In addition, the Company received a fair value estimate from the interest rate swap counterparty to verify the reasonableness of the Company’s estimate. Refer to Note 5 “Debt” for further discussion regarding the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap.
The following table provides information regarding assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

|  | Fair Value |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
June 29, 2018 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Assets: Interest rate swap (Note 5) |  | $ | 5,756 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 5,756 |  |  | $ | — |
Liabilities: Foreign currency contracts (Note 10) |  | 662 |  |  | — |  |  | 662 |  |  | — |
December 29, 2017 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Assets: Interest rate swaps |  | $ | 4,279 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 4,279 |  |  | $ | — |
Liabilities: Foreign currency contracts |  | 861 |  |  | — |  |  | 861 |  |  | — |

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Fair value standards also apply to certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. Refer to Note 5 “Debt” for further discussion regarding the fair value of the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Senior Notes. A summary of the valuation methodologies for assets and liabilities measured on a nonrecurring basis is as follows:
Cost and Equity Method Investments
The Company holds investments in equity and other securities that are accounted for as either cost method or equity method investments, which are classified as Other Assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The total carrying value of these investments is reviewed quarterly for changes in circumstance or the occurrence of events that suggest the Company’s investment may not be recoverable. The fair value of cost method investments are not adjusted if there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a material effect on the fair value of the investments. The aggregate recorded amount of cost and equity method investments at June 29, 2018 and December 29, 2017 was $22.4 million and $20.8 million, respectively.

(13.) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)
As of June 29, 2018 and December 29, 2017, the recorded amount of the Company’s equity method investment was $14.7 million and $13.8 million, respectively. The Company’s equity method investment is in a Chinese venture capital fund focused on investing in life sciences companies. This fund accounts for its investments at fair value with the unrealized change in fair value of these investments recorded as income or loss to the fund in the period of change. As of June 29, 2018, the Company owned 6.6% of this fund. During the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company recognized net gains of $5.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively, on its equity method investment.
The Company’s recorded amount of cost method investments was $7.7 million at June 29, 2018 and December 29, 2017.
The Company did not recognize any impairment charges related to cost method investments during the six months ended June 29, 2018. The Company recognized impairment charges of $5.0 million related to its cost method investments during the six months June 30, 2017. The fair value of these investments is primarily determined by reference to recent sales data of similar shares to independent parties in an inactive market and categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
(14.) SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company organizes its business into two reportable segments: (1) Medical and (2) Non-Medical. This segment structure reflects the financial information and reports used by the Company’s management, specifically its Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), to make decisions regarding the Company’s business, including resource allocations and performance assessments. This segment structure reflects the Company’s current operating focus in compliance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. There were no sales between segments during the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017.

(15.) | REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS

The majority of the Company’s revenues consist of sales of various medical devices and products to large, multinational OEMs and their affiliated subsidiaries. The Company considers the customer’s purchase order, which in some cases is governed by a long-term agreement, and the Company’s corresponding sales order acknowledgment as the contract with the customer. The Company has elected to adopt the practical expedient provided in ASC 340-40-25-4 and recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract, which are primarily sales commissions, as expense when incurred because the amortization period is less than one year.
Performance Obligations
The Company considers each shipment of an individual product included on a purchase order to be a separate performance obligation, as each shipment is separately identifiable and the customer can benefit from each individual product separately from the other products included on the purchase order. Accordingly, a contract can have one or more performance obligations to manufacture products. Standard payment terms range from 30 to 90 days and can include a discount for early payment.
The Company does not offer its customers a right of return. Rather, the Company warrants that each unit received by the customer will meet the agreed upon technical and quality specifications and requirements. Only when the delivered units do not meet these requirements can the customer return the non-compliant units as a corrective action under the warranty. The remedy offered to the customer is repair of the returned units or replacement if repair is not viable. Accordingly, the Company records a warranty reserve and any warranty activities are not considered to be a separate performance obligation. Historically, warranty reserves have not been material.
Transaction Price
Generally, the transaction price of the Company’s contracts consists of a unit price for each individual product included in the contract, which can be fixed or variable based on the number of units ordered. In some instances, the transaction price also includes a rebate for meeting certain volume-based targets over a specified period of time. The transaction price of a contract is determined based on the unit price and the number of units ordered, reduced by the rebate expected to be earned on those units. Rebates are estimated based on the expected achievement of the volume-based target using the most likely amount method and updated quarterly. Any adjustments to these estimates are recognized under the cumulative catch-up method, such that impact of the adjustment is recognized in the period in which it is identified.
The transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price basis. As the majority of products sold to customers are manufactured to meet the specific requirements and technical specifications of that customer, the products are considered unique to that customer and the unit price stated in the contract is considered the standalone selling price.
The Company has elected to adopt the practical expedient provided in ASC 606-10-50-14 and not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations and an expectation of when those amounts are expected to be recognized as revenue because the majority of contracts have an original expected duration of one year or less.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the point in time when a performance obligation is satisfied and the customer has obtained control of the products. Control is defined as the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the product. The customer obtains control of the products when title and risk of ownership transfers to them, which is primarily based upon shipping terms. Accordingly, the majority of the Company’s revenues are recognized at the point of shipment. In instances where title and risk of ownership do not transfer to the customer until the products have reached the customer’s location, revenue is recognized at that point in time. Revenue is recognized net of sales tax, value-added taxes and other taxes.
Contract Modifications
Contract modifications, which can include a change in either or both scope and price, most often occur related to contracts that are governed by a long-term arrangement. Contract modifications typically relate to the same products already governed by the long-term arrangement, and therefore, are accounted for as part of the existing contract. If a contract modification is for additional products, it is accounted for as a separate contract.

Disaggregated Revenue
In general, the Company's business segmentation is aligned according to the nature and economic characteristics of its products and customer relationships and provides meaningful disaggregation of each business segment's results of operations. For a summary by disaggregated product line sales for each segment, refer to Note 14, “Segment Information.” Additionally, the tables below disaggregate the Company’s revenues based upon significant customers, which are defined as any customer who individually represents 10% or more of a segment’s total revenues, and ship to country, which is defined as any country where 10% or more of a segment’s total revenues are shipped to. The Company believes that these categories best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
The following table presents revenues by customer.

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended
|  | June 29, 2018 |  | June 29, 2018
Customer |  | Medical |  | Non-Medical |  | Medical |  | Non-Medical

The following table presents revenues by ship to country.

|  | Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended
|  | June 29, 2018 |  | June 29, 2018

Canada |  | —% |  | —% |  | —% |  | 10%
All other Countries |  | 32% |  | 31% |  | 31% |  | 21%

Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable and less frequently, unearned revenue. Accounts receivable are recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Unearned revenue is recorded when customers pay or are billed in advance of the Company’s satisfaction of performance obligations. Contract liabilities were $3.2 million and $2.2 million as of June 29, 2018 and December 29, 2017, respectively, and are classified as Accrued Expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, the Company recognized $0.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of revenue that was included in the contract liability balance as of December 29, 2017. The Company does no t have any contract assets.

(16.) | IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The following table provides a brief description of recent Accounting Standard Updates ("ASU") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"):

Standard |  | Description |  | Effective Date |  | Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. |  | The new guidance allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and will improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. |  | December 29, 2018 (beginning of 2019 fiscal year). Early adoption is permitted. |  | The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. |  | The new guidance improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. |  | December 29, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. |  | The Company does not believe the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. |  | The new guidance clarifies the presentation and classification of the components of net periodic benefit costs in the consolidated statement of operations. |  | December 30, 2017. |  | The Company adopted the new guidance effective December 30, 2017, the beginning of its 2018 fiscal year, using the retrospective transition method, as part of the FASB's simplification initiative. See Adoption of ASU 2017-07 section below for additional information.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. |  | The new guidance requires the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of assets other than inventory to be recognized when the transfer occurs rather than deferring until an outside sale has occurred. |  | December 30, 2017. |  | The Company adopted the new guidance effective December 30, 2017. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact to the Company.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. |  | The new guidance clarifies the presentation and classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. |  | December 30, 2017. |  | The Company adopted the new guidance effective December 30, 2017. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact to the Company.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. |  | The new guidance supersedes the lease guidance under ASC Topic 840, Leases, resulting in the creation of FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases. The guidance requires a lessee to recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term for both finance and operating leases. |  | December 29, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. |  | The Company is currently evaluating its population of leases, and is continuing to assess all potential impacts of the standard, but currently believes the most significant impact relates to its accounting for real estate operating leases. The Company anticipates recognition of additional assets and corresponding liabilities related to leases upon adoption, but has not yet quantified these at this time. The Company plans to adopt the standard effective December 29, 2018.

(16.) IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (Continued)

Standard |  | Description |  | Effective Date |  | Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. |  | The new guidance updates certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial instruments. |  | December 30, 2017. |  | The Company adopted the new guidance effective December 30, 2017. The adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact to the Company.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Since that date, the FASB has issued additional ASUs clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2014-09. |  | The new guidance requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance provides alternative methods of adoption. Subsequent guidance issued after May 2014 did not change the core principle of ASU 2014-09. |  | December 30, 2017. |  | The Company adopted the new guidance effective December 30, 2017, using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of December 30, 2017. Prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reflected in accordance with the Company’s historical accounting. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and therefore no cumulative adjustment was recorded to equity. The Company has updated its internal controls for changes and expanded disclosures have been made in the Notes to the Financial Statements as a result of adopting the standard. (See Note 15, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”).

Adoption of ASU 2017-07
On December 30, 2017, the Company retrospectively adopted the new accounting guidance on presentation of net periodic pension costs (ASU 2017-07). That guidance requires that the service cost component of net benefit costs be disaggregated and reported in the same line item or items in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other non-service components of net benefit costs are required to be presented separately from the service cost component.
Following the adoption of this guidance, the Company continues to record the service cost component of net benefit costs in Cost of Sales and Selling, General and Administrative expenses. The interest cost component of net benefit costs is now recorded in Interest Expense and the remaining components of net benefit costs, amortization of net losses and expected return on plan assets, are now recorded in Other (Income) Loss, Net.

(17.) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 2, 2018, the Company completed the sale of the AS&O Product Line to Viant, for cash consideration of $600 million, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. In connection with the sale, the parties executed a transition services agreement whereby the Company will provide certain corporate services (including accounting, payroll, and information technology services) to Viant for a period of up to one year from the date of the closing to facilitate an orderly transfer of business operations. Viant will pay Integer for these services, which payments will vary in amount and length of time as specified in the transition services agreement. In addition, the parties executed long-term supply agreements under which the Company and Viant have agreed to supply the other with certain products at prices specified in the agreements for a term of three years.
As required by the Company’s Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the Company paid down indebtedness as a result of the disposition of the AS&O Product Line. On July 10, 2018, the Company completed the redemption in full of the Senior Notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes plus the applicable “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date. A “make-whole” premium of $31.3 million was paid as a result of redeeming the Senior Notes. Upon completion of the redemption of the Senior Notes, the indenture governing the Senior Notes was satisfied and discharged. The Company utilized the remaining net proceeds to pay down an additional $188 million in debt outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, consisting of $114 million on our TLB facility and $74 million on our Revolving Credit Facility.
On July 11, 2018, Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. upgraded the Company’s corporate family credit rating to B2 from B3. As a result, and in accordance with the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the interest rate margins for the TLB Facility will step down by 25 basis points.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Our Business
Integer Holdings Corporation is one of the largest medical device outsource (“MDO”) manufacturers in the world serving the cardiac, neuromodulation, vascular and portable medical markets. We also develop batteries for high-end niche applications in the non-medical energy, military, and environmental markets. Our vision is to enhance the lives of patients worldwide by being our customers’ partner of choice for innovative technologies and services.
We organize our business into two reportable segments, Medical and Non-Medical, and derive our revenues from four principle product lines. The Medical segment includes the Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics & Portable Medical, Cardio & Vascular and Cardiac & Neuromodulation product lines and the Non-Medical segment is comprised of the Electrochem product line.
Discontinued Operations
We have been exploring strategic alternatives related to our Advanced Surgical and Orthopedic product lines (the “AS&O Product Line”), including the potential sale of that product line. On May 3, 2018, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the AS&O Product Line within our Medical segment to Viant (formerly MedPlast, LLC), and on July 2, 2018, completed the sale for $600 million in cash, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. As a result, we classified the results of operations of the AS&O Product Line as discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented and classified the related assets and liabilities associated with the discontinued operations as held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. All results and information presented exclude the AS&O Product Line unless otherwise noted. Refer to Note 2 “Discontinued Operations” and Note 17 “Subsequent Events” of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information about the divestiture.
Strategic Overview
During 2017, we undertook a thorough strategic review of our customers, competitors and markets. As a result of this review, during the fourth quarter of 2017, we began to take steps to better align our resources in order to invest to grow, protect, preserve and to enhance the profitability of our portfolio of products. These steps include focusing our investment in research and development and manufacturing, improving our business processes and redirecting investments away from projects where the market does not justify the investment. The execution of this strategy will be our primary focus going forward.
We believe Integer is well-positioned within the medical technology and MDO manufacturing market and that there is a robust pipeline of opportunities to pursue. We have expanded our medical device capabilities and are excited about opportunities to partner with customers to drive innovation. We believe we have the scale and global presence, supported by world-class manufacturing and quality capabilities, to capture these opportunities. We are confident in our abilities as one of the largest MDO manufacturers, with a long history of successfully integrating companies, driving down costs and growing revenues over the long-term. Ultimately, our strategic vision is to drive shareholder value by enhancing the lives of patients worldwide by being our customers’ partner of choice for innovative technologies and services.

Net Income |  | $30 to $40 |  | (66)% to (54)% |  | $110 to $120 |  | 11% to 21%
EBITDA |  | N/A |  | N/A |  | $255 to $265 |  | 9% to 13%
Earnings per Diluted Share |  | $0.95 to $1.25 |  | (65)% to (54)% |  | $3.35 to $3.65 |  | 8% to 18%

(a) | Our 2018 Outlook has been revised to exclude the divested AS&O Product Line from the current and prior year. GAAP net income and earnings per diluted share as presented above excludes discontinued operations and the associated income tax impact from discontinued operations. Non-GAAP adjusted net income as presented above consists of income from continuing operations as adjusted to exclude the items described in footnote (c) below and to reflect the net impact of the long-term supply agreements (“LSAs”) entered into between the Company and Viant as of the closing of the divestiture of the AS&O Product Line. These LSAs govern the sale of products supplied by Viant to the Company for further resale to customers and by the Company to Viant for further resale to customers. Non-GAAP Adjusted Sales as presented above consists of sales from continuing operations adjusted to include the net impact of the LSAs. Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per diluted share as presented above consists of adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

(b) | Except as described below, further reconciliations by line item to the closest corresponding GAAP financial measure for Adjusted Sales, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share and Adjusted EBITDA, included in our “Revised 2018 Outlook” above, are not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to the high variability, complexity and visibility of the charges excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures.

(c) | Adjusted net income and EPS for 2018 is expected to consist of GAAP net income and EPS, excluding items such as intangible amortization, IP-related litigation costs, consolidation and realignment costs, asset disposition and write-down charges, and loss on extinguishment of debt totaling approximately $95 million. The after-tax impact of these items is estimated to be approximately $75 million, or approximately $2.29 per diluted share. Additionally, adjusted net income and EPS is expected to exclude the estimated impact relating to our disallowed deduction of the GILTI tax, as mandated by the Tax Reform Act. This disallowed deduction of the GILTI tax (approximately 50% of the total GILTI tax) is due to making use of our U.S. net operating losses (“NOLs”), and will be eliminated once our U.S. NOLs are fully utilized, which is expected to be in 2019. This adjustment makes our adjusted diluted EPS more comparable with other global companies that are not subject to this disallowed GILTI tax deduction and more comparable to our results following the full utilization of the U.S. NOLs.

Adjusted EBITDA is expected to consist of adjusted net income, excluding items such as depreciation, interest, stock-based compensation and taxes totaling approximately $145 million.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Financial Overview of Continuing Operations
Income from continuing operations for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 was $23.1 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, and $36.1 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, respectively, compared to income from continuing operations of $9.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, and $12.5 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively. These year over year variances are primarily the result of the following:

• | Sales from continuing operations for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 increased 12% and 11%, respectively. In comparison to the prior year periods, foreign currency exchange rates increased sales from continuing operations by approximately $0.9 million and $2.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively. Excluding these amounts, organic sales from continuing operations for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 increased 12% and 10%, respectively, primarily driven by market growth and new business wins.

• | Gross profit from continuing operations for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 increased $9.6 million and $11.1 million, respectively, primarily due to the increase in sales from continuing operations discussed above, partially offset by higher incentive compensation based upon current year-to-date results.

• | Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2018 were higher compared to the second quarter of 2017 primarily due to higher incentive compensation. Operating expenses for the first six months of 2018 were lower by $3.3 million, due to a decrease in other operating expenses attributable to the completion of spending on integration activities and various efficiencies and synergies gained as a result of our integration and consolidation initiatives partially offset by higher incentive compensation.

• | Interest expense for the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same quarter in 2017 increased by $0.2 million, primarily due to higher interest rates. For the first six months of 2018 interest expense declined $2.6 million, primarily attributable to lower outstanding debt balances due to the repayment of debt over the last year.

• | Net gains on cost and equity method investments, which are unpredictable in nature, increased income for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 by $0.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively, compared to net losses of $4.4 million and $4.8 million during the same periods in 2017.

• | Other (income) loss, net for the second quarter and first six months of 2018 was income of $2.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively, compared to net losses of $6.8 million and $8.2 million during the same periods in 2017, primarily due to the non-recurrence of a non-cash foreign currency charge in the prior year on inter-company loans.

• | Income tax provision increased primarily due to an increase in pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting from the factors discussed above and the estimated impact of the GILTI tax.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Additionally, we report and discuss in our earnings releases and investor presentations adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted EBITDA and organic sales growth rates, all from continuing operations. Adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted income and adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations consist of GAAP amounts adjusted for the following to the extent occurring during the period: (i) acquisition and integration related charges and expenses, (ii) amortization of intangible assets including inventory step-up amortization, (iii) facility consolidation, optimization, manufacturing transfer and system integration charges, (iv) asset write-down and disposition charges, (v) charges in connection with corporate realignments or a reduction in force, (vi) certain litigation expenses, charges and gains, (vii) unusual or infrequently occurring items, (viii) gain/loss on cost and equity method investments, (ix) extinguishment of debt charges, (x) the net impact of the LSAs between the Company and Viant, (xi) the income tax (benefit) related to these adjustments and (xii) certain tax items that are outside the normal provision for the period (not for adjusted pre-tax income). Adjusted earnings per diluted share are calculated by dividing adjusted income from continuing operations by diluted weighted average shares outstanding. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations consists of GAAP net income (loss) plus (i) the same adjustments as listed above except for items (xi) and (xii), (ii) GAAP stock-based compensation, interest expense, and depreciation and (iii) GAAP provision (benefit) for income taxes. To calculate organic sales growth rates, which exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as well as the impact of any acquisitions or divestitures of product lines on sales growth rates, we convert current period sales from local currency to U.S. dollars using the previous periods foreign currency exchange rates and exclude the amount of sales acquired/divested during the period from the current/previous period amounts, respectively. We believe that the presentation of adjusted income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and organic sales growth rates, all from continuing operations, provides important supplemental information to management and investors seeking to understand the financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

(a) | The difference between pre-tax and income (loss) amounts is the estimated tax impact related to the respective adjustment. Income (loss) amounts are computed using a 21% U.S. tax rate (35% U.S. tax rate for 2017 periods), and the statutory tax rates in Mexico, Germany, France, Netherlands, Uruguay, Ireland and Switzerland, as adjusted for the existence of NOLs. Amortization of intangibles and OOE expense have also been adjusted to reflect the estimated impact relating to our disallowed deduction of the GILTI tax, as described in footnote (i) below. Expenses that are not deductible for tax purposes (i.e. permanent tax differences) are added back at 100%.

(b) | In 2013, we filed suit against AVX Corporation alleging they were infringing our intellectual property. Given the complexity and significant costs incurred pursuing this litigation, we are excluding these litigation expenses from adjusted amounts. This matter proceeded to trial during the first quarter of 2016 and again in the third quarter of 2017 that resulted in a jury awarding damages in the amount of $37.5 million. In March 2018, the court vacated that damage award and ordered a new trial on damages, which is scheduled for January 2019. To date, no gains have been recognized in connection with this litigation.

(c) | As a result of the strategic review of our customers, competitors and markets we undertook during the fourth quarter of 2017, we began to take steps to better align our resources in order to invest to grow, protect, preserve and to enhance the profitability of our portfolio of products. This will include focusing our investment in RD&E and manufacturing, improving our business processes and redirecting investments away from projects where the market does not justify the investment. As a result, during 2018 we incurred charges related to this strategy, which primarily consisted of severance and fees for professional services.

(d) | In 2017, we initiated several initiatives designed to reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies and increase manufacturing capacity to accommodate growth. The plan involves the relocation of certain manufacturing operations and expansion of certain of our facilities.

(e) | During 2018 and 2017, we incurred costs primarily related to the closure of our Clarence, NY facility and the transfer of our Beaverton, OR portable medical and Plymouth, MN vascular manufacturing operations to Tijuana, Mexico.

(f) | Reflects acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of Lake Region Medical, which occurred in October 2015.

(g) | Amounts for 2017 primarily include expenses related to our CEO and CFO transitions.

(h) | Represents debt extinguishment charges in connection with pre-payments made on our Term B Loan Facility which are included in interest expense.

(i) | Reflects the net impact of the LSAs entered into as of the closing of the divestiture of the AS&O Product Line. These LSAs govern the sale of products supplied by Viant to the Company for further resale to customers and by the Company to Viant for further resale to customers.

(j) | Tax adjustments primarily includes the estimated impact relating to our disallowed deduction of the GILTI tax, as mandated by the Tax Reform Act. This disallowed deduction of the GILTI tax (approximately 50% of the total GILTI tax) is due to the Company making use of its U.S. NOLs, and will be eliminated once the Company’s U.S. NOLs are fully utilized, which is expected to be in 2019. This adjustment makes our Adjusted Diluted EPS more comparable with other global companies that are not subject to this disallowed GILTI tax deduction and more comparable to the Company’s results following the full utilization of its U.S. NOLs.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations, which excludes the impact of amortization of intangible assets, losses on extinguishment of debt and various other operating expenses, among others, was $1.06 and $1.69 per share for the second quarter and first six months of 2018, respectively, compared to $0.74 and $1.29 per share for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively. These results reflect the benefit of our increased sales and the completion of spending on integration activities, partially offset by higher incentive compensation. The year to date results also reflect the benefit of lower interest expense in 2018 compared to 2017.

Our CEO’s View
We delivered another strong quarter of sales growth and even stronger net income, which enabled continued debt reduction. Our second quarter results were consistent with the full year guidance. A $0.15 increase in our adjusted EPS guidance is a direct result of the AS&O Product Line divestiture as our full year interest expense savings exceeds the divested AS&O Product Line operating profit. Shortly after the second quarter ended, we completed the sale of the AS&O Product Line for $600 million in cash. The deal structure was extremely cash efficient as we realized approximately $580 million of cash after deal costs, which enabled the repayment of $548 million of debt. We are now a higher margin rate business with increased earnings, higher returns on invested capital, significantly less debt, lower leverage and similar cash flows. Looking forward, we have clear market leadership positions in our remaining products, with differentiated technology and increased financial flexibility to invest more aggressively to grow.
We remain focused on executing our portfolio strategy to win in the markets we serve and our operational strategy to achieve excellence in everything we do. We are now better positioned to deliver on our objectives of sales growth above the market, profit growth two times sales growth, and to earn a valuation premium.

Cost Savings and Consolidation Efforts
In 2018 and 2017, we recorded charges in Other Operating Expenses related to various cost savings and consolidation initiatives. These initiatives were undertaken to improve our operational efficiencies and profitability, the most significant of which are as follows (dollars in millions):

Initiative |  | Expected Expense |  | Expected Capital Expenditures |  | Expected Annual Cost Savings(a) |  | Expected Completion Date
Strategic reorganization and alignment |  | $28 - $30(b) |  | - |  | $8 - $12 |  | 2018
Manufacturing alignment to support growth |  | $9 - $11 |  | $4 - $6 |  | $2 - $3 |  | 2019
Consolidation and optimization expenses |  | $18 - $22(b) |  | $5 - $6 |  | $12 - $13 |  | 2018

(a) Represents the annual benefit to our operating income expected to be realized from these initiatives through cost savings and/or increased capacity. These benefits will be phased in over time as the various initiatives are completed, some of which are already included in our current period results.

(b) | Expected expense for these initiatives include amounts classified as discontinued operations.

We continually evaluate our operating structure in order to maximize efficiencies and drive margin expansion. Future charges are expected to be incurred as we seek to create an optimized manufacturing footprint, leveraging our increased scale and product capabilities while also supporting the needs of our customers. Our efforts will include:

• | potential manufacturing consolidations;

• | continuous improvement;

• | productivity initiatives;

• | direct material and indirect expense savings opportunities; and

• | the establishment of centers of excellence.

Product Line Sales of Continuing Operations Highlights
For the second quarter and first six months of 2018, Cardio & Vascular sales increased $18.0 million, or 14% and $31.4 million or 12%, respectively, versus the comparable 2017 periods. These increases were primarily driven by strong market growth in the electrophysiology, neurovascular & peripheral vascular markets. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increased Cardio & Vascular sales for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 by $0.9 million and $2.4 million, respectively, in comparison to the 2017 periods primarily due to U.S. dollar fluctuations relative to the Euro.
For the second quarter and first six months of 2018, Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales increased $9.8 million, or 9% and $14.9 million, or 7%, respectively, versus the comparable 2017 periods. The increase in Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales was driven by strong neuromodulation demand driven by growth in spinal cord stimulation and cochlear markets. Cardiac Rhythm Management sales increased from improved market penetration of leads and component products. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on Cardiac & Neuromodulation sales during the 2018 periods in comparison to the same periods of 2017.
For the second quarter and first six months of 2018, Advanced Surgical, Orthopedics & Portable Medical (AS&O) sales increased $6.5 million, or 23%, and $12.3 million, or 22%, respectively, versus the comparable 2017 periods. AS&O sales increased from strong growth in Portable Medical and the retained AS&O products. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on AS&O sales during the 2018 periods in comparison to the same periods of 2017.
For the second quarter and first six months of 2018, Non-Medical sales decreased $0.7 million, or 5%, and increased $0.6 million, or 2%, respectively, versus the comparable 2017 periods. The quarter over quarter decline was primarily due to timing associated with orders from a military customer. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations did not have a material impact on Non-Medical sales during the 2018 periods in comparison to the same periods of 2017.

Other Operating Expenses
Refer to “Cost Savings and Consolidation Efforts” section of this Item and Note 8 “Other Operating Expenses” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for further information related to these initiatives. Other Operating Expenses is comprised of the following (in thousands):

| Three Months Ended |  | Six Months Ended

Total other operating expenses | $ | 4,692 |  |  | $ | 6,727 |  |  | $ | 8,476 |  |  | $ | 18,421 |

(a) | As a result of the strategic review of our customers, competitors and markets we undertook during the fourth quarter of 2017, we began to take steps to better align our resources in order to invest to grow, protect, preserve and to enhance the profitability of our portfolio of products. This will include focusing our investment in RD&E and manufacturing, improving our business processes and redirecting investments away from projects where the market does not justify the investment. As a result, during the first six months of 2018, we incurred charges related to this strategy, which primarily included severance and fees for professional services.

(b) | In 2017, we initiated several initiatives designed to reduce costs, improve operating efficiencies and increase manufacturing capacity to accommodate growth. The plan involves the relocation of certain manufacturing operations and expansion of certain of our facilities.

(c) | During 2018 and 2017, we incurred costs primarily related to the closure of our Clarence, NY facility and the transfer of our Beaverton, OR portable medical and Plymouth, MN vascular manufacturing operations to Tijuana, Mexico.

(d) | Reflects acquisition and integration costs related to the acquisition of Lake Region Medical, which occurred in October 2015. This initiative was substantially complete as of December 29, 2017.

(e) | Amounts for 2017 primarily include expenses related to our CEO and CFO transitions.

We continually evaluate our operating structure in order to maximize efficiencies and drive margin expansion. For 2018, Other Operating Expenses is expected to be approximately $15 million to $20 million. Refer to the “Cost Savings and Consolidation Efforts” section of this Item for further details on these initiatives.
Interest Expense
Interest Expense for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was $15.2 million and $30.8 million, respectively, compared to $15.1 million and $33.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. The weighted average interest rates paid on outstanding borrowings for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was 5.13% and 4.95%, respectively, compared to 4.25% and 4.64%, for the comparable periods in 2017. The weighted average interest rates paid in the second quarter and first six months of 2018 reflect an increase in LIBOR during 2017 and 2018, partially offset by a cumulative 100 basis point reduction to the applicable interest rate margins of our Term Loan B facility, which resulted from amendments of our Senior Secured Credit Facilities in March 2017 and again in November 2017. Cash interest expense increased $0.8 million and decreased $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2017. Non-cash interest expense (i.e. deferred fee and discount amortization) decreased $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, respectively, when compared to the same period in 2017, primarily attributable to lower accelerated write-offs (losses from extinguishment of debt) of deferred fees and discounts due to prepayments of portions of our Term Loan B facility during the respective periods. We recognized losses from extinguishment of debt during the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 of $0.4 million and $1.5 million, respectively. We repaid $25.0 million of debt during the second quarter of 2018 and $75.1 million during the first half of 2018. See Note 5 “Debt” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information pertaining to our debt.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(Gain) Loss on Cost and Equity Method Investments, Net
The Company holds investments in equity and other securities that are accounted for as either cost method or equity method investments. During the three and six months ended June 29, 2018, we recognized net gains of $0.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively, compared to net losses of $4.4 million and $4.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 on our cost and equity method investments. The second quarter of 2017 included an impairment charge of $5.0 million recognized on one of our cost method investments. Our cost method investments are in start-up research and development companies whose fair value is highly subjective in nature and could be subject to significant fluctuations in the future that could result in material gains or losses. See Note 13 “Fair Value Measurements” of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for additional information pertaining to our cost and equity method investments.
Other (Income) Loss, Net
Other income for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was $2.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively, compared to other loss of $6.8 million and $8.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Other (Income) Loss, Net is primarily comprised of income (loss) from the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in foreign currencies.
The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in foreign currencies included in Other (Income) Loss, Net for the three and six months ended June 29, 2018 was income of $2.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, compared to a losses of $6.7 million and $8.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively.
The favorable amount in the second quarter of 2018 was primarily driven by the impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar relative to the Euro on our operations. The losses in 2017 were primarily driven by the impact of the weakening U.S. dollar relative to the Euro on our inter-company loans and were primarily non-cash in nature. We continually monitor our foreign currency exposures and seek to take steps to mitigate these risks. However, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could have a significant impact, positive or negative, on our financial results in the future.
Provision for Income Taxes
We recognized income tax expense of $8.7 million for the second quarter of 2018 on $31.8 million of pre-tax income from continuing operations compared to income tax expense of $0.3 million on $9.8 million of pre-tax income from continuing operations for the same period of 2017. The income tax expense for the first six months of 2018 was $14.1 million on income from continuing operations before taxes of $50.3 compared to $1.0 million on $13.6 million of income from continuing operations before taxes for the same period of 2017.
We expect continued volatility in our effective tax rate due to several factors including: changes in the mix of pre-tax income from continuing operations and the jurisdictions to which it relates, changes in tax laws and foreign tax holidays, business reorganizations, settlements with taxing authorities and foreign currency fluctuations. We continuously evaluate and currently have various tax planning initiatives in place that are aimed at reducing our effective tax rate over the long term.
Our worldwide effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 35% for 2018, excluding discrete items. Our effective tax rate for 2018 differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due principally to the estimated impact of the GILTI tax. Our earnings outside the U.S. are generally taxed at blended rates that are marginally lower than the U.S. federal rate. The GILTI provisions require us to include foreign subsidiary earnings in excess of a deemed return on the foreign subsidiary’s tangible assets in our U.S. income tax return. There is a statutory deduction of 50% of the GILTI inclusion, however the deduction is subject to limitations based on U.S. taxable income. We currently have NOLs to offset forecasted U.S. taxable income and as such, are temporarily subject to the deduction limitation, which correspondingly imposes an incremental impact on U.S. Income tax. The foreign jurisdictions in which we operate and where our foreign earnings are primarily derived, include Switzerland, Mexico, Germany, Uruguay, Malaysia and Ireland. While we are not currently aware of any material trends in these jurisdictions that are likely to impact our current or future tax expense, our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by earnings being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower effective tax rates and higher than anticipated in countries where we have higher effective tax rates, or by changes in tax laws or regulations. We regularly assess any significant exposure associated with increases in tax rates in international jurisdictions and adjustments are made as events occur that warrant adjustment to our tax provisions.
Our 2018 blended effective tax rate on foreign earnings is currently estimated to be approximately 15% for continuing operations. For the year, we expect to have positive income before taxes in our foreign jurisdictions but losses before taxes in U.S. jurisdictions due to our projected amounts of Interest Expense.

The amounts in the table above exclude assets and liabilities classified as discontinued operations held for sale. Cash and cash equivalents at June 29, 2018 decreased by $18.5 million from year-end as excess cash flow from continuing operations was used to pay down our debt. Working capital from continuing operations decreased by $3.3 million from December 29, 2017 due to the Company’s continuing efforts to reduce working capital in order to generate cash to pay down debt.
At June 29, 2018, $12 million of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries. We intend to limit our distributions from foreign subsidiaries to previously taxed income. If distributions are made utilizing current period earnings, we will record foreign withholding taxes in the period of the distribution.

The cash flow information presented includes cash flows related to the discontinued operations.
Operating Activities – During the six months ended June 29, 2018, we generated cash of $67.2 million from operations compared to $77.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to a $32.5 million decrease in cash flow provided by working capital partially offset by a $22.5 million increase in cash income (i.e. income from continuing operations plus adjustments to reconcile income (loss) from continuing operations to net cash provided by operating activities). The increase working capital during the period was primarily due to higher sales as well as the timing of inventory purchases and the payment of accounts payable.
Investing Activities – The $3.2 million decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to lower purchases of property, plant, and equipment. Our current expectation is that capital spending for 2018 will be in the range of $35 million to $40 million, of which approximately half is discretionary in nature. We anticipate that cash on hand, cash flows from operations and available borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund these capital expenditures. Property, plant, and equipment purchases related to our AS&O Product Line were approximately $15 million per year.
Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities for the first six months of 2018 was $74.5 million compared to $61.9 million in the comparable 2017 period. Financing activities during the first six months of 2018 included net payments of $75.1 million related to paying down our debt obligations compared to $68.8 million for the comparable 2017 period.
In connection with the completion of the sale of our AS&O Product Line we repaid, after the completion of the second quarter, $548 million of our debt, which included $360 million of our 9.125% Senior Notes, $114 million of our Term Loan B Facility and $74 million outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility.

INTEGER HOLDINGS CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Capital Structure – As of June 29, 2018, our capital structure consists of $1.5 billion of debt outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and Senior Notes and 32 million shares of common stock outstanding. After the completion of the sale of our AS&O Product Line and the corresponding repayment of indebtedness, our capital structure consists of $1.0 billion of debt outstanding under our Senior Secured Credit Facilities and 32 million shares of common stock outstanding. Additionally, after our repayment of indebtedness in connection with the completion of the sale of the AS&O Product Line, we have access to $193 million of borrowing capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility. This amount may vary from period to period based upon our debt and EBITDA levels, which impacts our covenant calculations. We are also authorized to issue up to 100 million shares of common stock and 100 million shares of preferred stock. After the completion of the sale of our AS&O Product Line and the corresponding repayment of indebtedness, our debt service obligations, comprised of principal and interest payments for the remainder of 2018, are estimated to be approximately $45 million.
Based on current expectations, we believe that our projected cash flows provided by operations, available cash and cash equivalents and potential borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility should be sufficient to meet our working capital and fixed capital requirements for the next twelve months. If our future financing needs increase, we may need to arrange additional debt or equity financing. Accordingly, we evaluate and consider from time to time various financing alternatives to supplement our financial resources and optimize our capital structure. We cannot be assured that, if needed, we will be able to enter into any such arrangements on acceptable terms or at all.
Credit Facilities - As of June 29, 2018, we had senior secured credit facilities (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) that consist of (i) a $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which had $74 million drawn as of June 29, 2018, (ii) a $321 million term loan A facility (the “TLA Facility”), and (iii) an $812 million term loan B facility (the “TLB Facility”). Additionally, as of June 29, 2018, we had $360 million aggregate principal amount of 9.125% senior notes due on November 1, 2023 (the “Senior Notes”) outstanding. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on October 27, 2020, the TLA Facility will mature on October 27, 2021 and the TLB Facility will mature on October 27, 2022.
The Revolving Credit Facility and TLA Facility contain financial covenants requiring (A) a maximum total net leverage ratio (as defined in the agreement governing the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) of 6.0:1.0, subject to periodic step downs beginning in the third fiscal quarter of 2018 and (B) a minimum interest coverage ratio of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facilities) to interest expense of 2.75:1.0 subject to a step up beginning in the first quarter of 2019. As of June 29, 2018, our total net leverage ratio, calculated in accordance with our Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement, was approximately 3.8 to 1.00 after taking into account the sale of our AS&O Product Line and the corresponding repayment of debt. For the twelve month period ended June 29, 2018, our ratio of adjusted EBITDA to interest expense, calculated in accordance with our Senior Secured Credit Facilities agreement, was approximately 5.1 to 1.0 after taking into account the sale of our AS&O Product Line and the corresponding repayment of debt.
Failure to comply with these financial covenants would result in an event of default as defined under the Revolving Credit Facility and TLA Facility unless waived by the lenders. An event of default may result in the acceleration of our indebtedness. As a result, management believes that compliance with these covenants is material to us. As of June 29, 2018, we were in full compliance with the financial covenants described above. However, a significant increase in the LIBOR interest rate and/or a decline in our operating performance, and in particular our sales and/or adjusted EBITDA, could result in our inability to meet these financial covenants and lead to an event of default if a waiver or amendment could not be obtained from our lenders.
The Revolving Credit Facility is supported by a consortium of thirteen lenders with no lender controlling more than 27% of the facility. As of June 29, 2018, the banks supporting the majority of the Revolving Credit Facility had an S&P credit rating of at least BBB+ or better, which is considered investment grade. The banks supporting the remaining Revolving Credit Facility are not currently being rated.
Upon completion of the redemption of the Senior Notes, the indenture governing the Senior Notes was satisfied and discharged. See Note 5 “Debt” and Note 17 “Subsequent Events”of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 of this report for a further information on the Company’s outstanding debt.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Our estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Making estimates, assumptions and judgments about future events is inherently unpredictable and is subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. Management believes the estimates, assumptions and judgments employed and resulting balances reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are reasonable; however, actual results could differ materially.
There have been no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to those disclosed in Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2017.
