AMERISOURCEBERGEN CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements present the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of AmerisourceBergen Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of the dates and for the periods indicated.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals, except as otherwise disclosed herein) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2012 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 have been included.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but which are not required for interim reporting purposes, have been omitted.  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual amounts could differ from these estimated amounts.

 

The Company has three operating segments, which include the operations of AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (“ABDC”), AmerisourceBergen Specialty Group (“ABSG”), and AmerisourceBergen Consulting Services (“ABCS”).  The Company has aggregated the operating results of all of its operating segments into one reportable segment, Pharmaceutical Distribution, which represents the consolidated operating results of the Company.  The businesses of the Pharmaceutical Distribution operating segments are similar in that they service both healthcare providers and pharmaceutical manufacturers in the pharmaceutical supply channel.

 

Note 2.  Acquisitions

 

On November 1, 2011, the Company acquired TheraCom, LLC (“TheraCom”), a subsidiary of CVS Caremark Corporation, for a purchase price of $257.2 million, net of a working capital adjustment.  TheraCom is a leading provider of commercialization support services to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, specifically providing reimbursement and patient support services.  TheraCom’s capabilities complement those of the Lash Group and significantly increase the size and scope of consulting services provided by the Company’s ABCS operating segment.  The purchase price was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their fair values at the date of the acquisition.  The purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired by $179.8 million, which was allocated to goodwill.  The fair values of significant tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were as follows:  accounts receivable of $119.6 million, merchandise inventories of $41.7 million and accounts payable of $153.2 million.  The fair value of intangible assets acquired of $68.8 million consists of customer relationships of $57.1 million, software technology of $7.9 million, and trade names of $3.8 million.  The Company is amortizing the fair values of the acquired customer relationships over their remaining useful lives of 15 years, and amortizing the fair values of software technology and trade names over their remaining useful lives of 5 years.  Goodwill resulting from the acquisition is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

 

TheraCom’s annualized revenues are approximately $700 million, the majority of which are provided by the specialized distribution component of the integrated reimbursement support services for certain unique prescription products.  Approximately $60

million of these revenues are from sales to ABDC.  During the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, TheraCom sales to ABDC were $19.0 million and $29.6 million, respectively, which were eliminated from the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Pro forma results of operations for the aforementioned acquisition have not been presented because the effects of revenue and earnings were not material to the consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3.  Income Taxes

 

The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal and state jurisdictions as well as various foreign jurisdictions.  As of March 31, 2012, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits, defined as the aggregate tax effect of differences between tax return positions and the benefits recognized in the Company’s financial statements, of $45.4 million ($30.7 million, net of federal benefit).  If recognized, these tax benefits would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate.  Included in this amount is $10.3 million of interest and penalties, which the Company records in income tax expense.  During the six months ended March 31, 2012, unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $0.3 million.  During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that audit resolutions and the expiration of statutes of limitations could result in a reduction of unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $2.2 million.

In February 2012, the Company repaid the borrowings under the Blanco Credit Facility, which was terminated.

 

The Company has a multi-currency senior unsecured revolving credit facility for $700 million, which was scheduled to expire in March 2015 (the “Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility”), with a syndicate of lenders.  In October 2011, the Company entered into an amendment with the syndicate of lenders to extend the maturity date of the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility to October 2016.  The amendment also reduced the Company’s borrowing rates and facility fees.  Interest on borrowings under the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility accrues at specified rates based on the Company’s debt rating and ranges from 68 basis points to 155 basis points over LIBOR/EURIBOR/Bankers Acceptance Stamping Fee, as applicable (90 basis points over LIBOR/EURIBOR/Bankers Acceptance Stamping Fee at March 31, 2012).  Additionally, interest on borrowings denominated in Canadian dollars may accrue at the greater of the Canadian prime rate or the CDOR rate.  The Company pays facility fees to maintain the availability under the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility at specified rates based on its debt rating, ranging from 7 basis points to 20 basis points, annually, of the total commitment (10 basis points at March 31, 2012).  The Company may choose to repay or reduce its commitments under the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility at any time.  The Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility contains covenants, including compliance with a financial leverage ratio test, as well as others that impose limitations on, among other things, indebtedness of excluded subsidiaries and asset sales.

 

On October 31, 2011, the Company established a commercial paper program whereby it may from time to time issue short-term promissory notes in an aggregate amount of up to $700 million at any one time.  Amounts available under the program may be borrowed, repaid, and re-borrowed from time to time.  The maturities on the notes will vary, but may not exceed 365 days from the date of issuance.  The notes will bear interest rates, if interest bearing, or will be sold at a discount from their face amounts.  The commercial paper program does not increase the Company’s borrowing capacity as it is fully backed by the Company’s Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility.  There were no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program at March 31, 2012.

 

The Company has a $700 million receivables securitization facility (“Receivables Securitization Facility”), which was scheduled to expire in April 2014.  In October 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to the Receivables Securitization

(UNAUDITED)

 

Facility to extend the maturity date to October 2014.  The amendment also reduced the Company’s borrowing rates.  The Company has available to it an accordion feature whereby the commitment on the Receivables Securitization Facility may be increased by up to $250 million, subject to lender approval, for seasonal needs during the December and March quarters.  Interest rates are based on prevailing market rates for short-term commercial paper or LIBOR plus a program fee of 75 basis points.  The Company pays an unused fee of 37.5 basis points, annually, to maintain the availability under the Receivables Securitization Facility.  At March 31, 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Receivables Securitization Facility.  The Receivables Securitization Facility contains similar covenants to the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility.

 

In November 2011, the Company issued $500 million of 3½% senior notes due November 15, 2021 (the “2021 Notes”).  The 2021 Notes were sold at 99.858% of the principal amount and have an effective yield of 3.52%.  The interest on the 2021 Notes is payable semiannually, in arrears, commencing May 15, 2012.  The 2021 Notes rank pari passu to the Multi-Currency Revolving Credit Facility, the 5 5/8% senior notes due 2012, the 5 7/8% senior notes due 2015, and the 4 7/8% senior notes due 2019.  The Company used the net proceeds of the 2021 Notes for general corporate purposes.  Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the 2021 Notes were deferred and are being amortized over the 10 year term of the notes.

Note 7. Legal Matters and Contingencies

 

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company becomes involved in lawsuits, administrative proceedings, government subpoenas, and government investigations, including antitrust, commercial, environmental, product liability, intellectual property, regulatory, employment discrimination, and other matters.  Significant damages or penalties may be sought from the Company in some matters, and some matters may require years for the Company to resolve.  The Company establishes reserves based on its periodic assessment of estimates of probable losses.  There can be no assurance that an adverse resolution of one or more matters during any subsequent reporting period will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations for that period or on the Company’s financial condition.

 

Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care Civil Rebate Payment Order and Civil Complaint

 

On April 27, 2009, the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (“OMH”) notified the Company’s Canadian subsidiary, AmerisourceBergen Canada Corporation (“ABCC”), that it had entered a Rebate Payment Order requiring ABCC to pay C$5.8 million to the Ontario Ministry of Finance. OMH maintains that it has reasonable grounds to believe that ABCC accepted rebates, directly or indirectly, in violation of the Ontario Drug Interchangeability and Dispensing Fee Act. OMH at the same time announced similar rebate payment orders against other wholesalers, generic manufacturers, pharmacies, and individuals. ABCC was cooperating fully with OMH prior to the entry of the Order by responding fully to requests for information and/or documents and will continue to cooperate. ABCC filed an appeal of the Order pursuant to OMH procedures in May 2009. In addition, on the same day that the Order was issued, OMH notified ABCC that it had filed a civil complaint with Health Canada (department of the Canadian government responsible for national public health) against ABCC for potential violations of the Canadian Food and Drug Act. Health Canada subsequently conducted an audit of ABCC, and ABCC has cooperated fully with Health Canada in the conduct of the audit. The Company has met several times, including most recently in April 2011, with representatives of OMH to present its position on the Rebate Payment Order. Although the Company believes that ABCC has not violated the relevant statutes and regulations and has conducted its business consistent with widespread industry practices, the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters.

 

Qui Tam Matter

 

On October 24, 2011, the Company announced that it had reached a preliminary agreement for a civil settlement (the “Preliminary Settlement”) with the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, the plaintiff states and the relator (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) of claims against two of the Company’s business units, ASD Specialty Healthcare, Inc. (“ASD”)

(UNAUDITED)

 

and International Nephrology Network (“INN”), who were named, along with Amgen Inc., in a civil case filed under the qui tam provisions of the federal and various state civil False Claims Acts. The civil case was administratively closed after the Preliminary Settlement was reached. The Preliminary Settlement is subject to completion and approval of an executed written settlement agreement with the Plaintiffs, which the Company expects to finalize in its fiscal year ending September 30, 2012. The Company does not expect INN or ASD to admit any liability in connection with the settlement. The Company recorded a $16 million charge in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 in connection with the Preliminary Settlement.

 

The qui tam provisions of False Claims Acts permit a private person, known as a relator, to file civil actions under these statutes on behalf of the federal and state governments. The qui tam complaint against Amgen, ASD and INN was initially filed under seal by a former Amgen employee in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts (the “ District of Massachusetts case”). The Company first learned of the matter on January 21, 2009 when it received notice that the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York was investigating allegations in the sealed civil complaint. On October 30, 2009, 14 states filed a complaint to intervene in the case. However, following the resolution of a number of motions, including a motion to dismiss, filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts and appeals filed in the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit in connection with the matter, only six states (California, Illinois, Indiana, Massachusetts, New Mexico and New York) and the relator were permitted to proceed with their complaints until the case was administratively closed in connection with the Preliminary Settlement. The allegations in the closed case related to the distribution and sale of Amgen’s anemia drug, Aranesp. ASD is a distributor of pharmaceuticals to physician practices and INN is a group purchasing organization for nephrologists and nephrology practices. The plaintiff states and/or the relator alleged that from 2002 through 2009 Amgen, ASD and INN offered remuneration to medical providers in violation of federal and state health laws to increase purchases and prescriptions of Aranesp and that these violations caused medical providers to submit false certifications and false claims for payment in violation of the federal and state civil False Claims Acts. Amgen, ASD and INN were also alleged to have caused healthcare providers to bill federal and state healthcare programs for Aranesp that was either not administered or administered, but medically unnecessary.

 

The Company has learned that there are prior and subsequent filings in one or more federal district courts, including a complaint filed by one of its former employees, that are under seal and involve allegations against the Company (and/or subsidiaries or businesses of the Company, including its group purchasing organization for oncologists and its oncology distribution business) similar to those raised in the District of Massachusetts case. The Preliminary Settlement encompasses resolution of one of these other filings. The Company cannot predict the outcome of any other pending action in which any AmerisourceBergen entity is or may become a defendant.

 

Note 8.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The recorded amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable at March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011 approximate fair value based upon the relatively short-term nature of these financial instruments.  Within cash and cash equivalents, the Company had $1,438.1 million and $491.1 million of investments in money market accounts as of March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively.  The fair values of the money market accounts were determined based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, otherwise known as Level 1 investments.  The recorded amount of debt (see Note 5) and the corresponding fair value, which is estimated based on quoted market prices, as of March 31, 2012 were $1,882.1 million and $2,032.9 million, respectively.  The recorded amount of debt and the corresponding fair value, which is estimated based on quoted market prices, as of September 30, 2011 were $1,365.0 million and $1,507.0 million, respectively.

 

Note 9.  Subsequent Event

 

On April 30, 2012, the Company acquired World Courier Group, Inc. (“World Courier”) for a purchase price of $520 million, subject to a working capital adjustment.  World Courier is a leading global specialty transportation and logistics provider for the biopharmaceutical industry.  World Courier further strengthens the Company’s service offerings to global pharmaceutical manufacturers and provides an established platform for the introduction of our specialty services outside North America.  It operates in over 50 countries and has approximately 2,500 employees.  World Courier’s revenues are estimated to be approximately $500 million in calendar 2012.

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

 

Overview

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto contained herein and in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.

 

We are a pharmaceutical services company providing drug distribution and related healthcare services and solutions to our pharmacy, physician, and manufacturer customers, which are based primarily in the United States and Canada.  We are organized based upon the products and services that we provide to our customers.  Substantially all of our operations are located in the United States and Canada.  We also have a pharmaceutical packaging operation in the United Kingdom.

 

On November 1, 2011, we acquired TheraCom, LLC (“TheraCom”), a subsidiary of CVS Caremark Corporation, for a purchase price of $257.2 million, net of a working capital adjustment.  TheraCom is a leading provider of commercialization support services to the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry, specifically providing reimbursement and patient access support services.  TheraCom’s capabilities complement those of the Lash Group, a business unit within AmerisourceBergen Consulting Services, and will significantly increase the size and scope of its consulting services.  TheraCom’s annualized revenues are approximately $700 million, the majority of which are provided by the specialized distribution component of the integrated reimbursement support services for certain unique prescription products.  Approximately $60 million of these revenues are from sales to AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation.  During the quarter and six months ended March 31, 2012, TheraCom sales to AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation were $19.0 million and $29.6 million, respectively, which were eliminated from our consolidated financial statements.

 

On April 30, 2012, we acquired World Courier Group, Inc. (“World Courier”) for a purchase price of $520 million, subject to a working capital adjustment.  World Courier is a leading global specialty transportation and logistics provider for the biopharmaceutical industry.  World Courier further strengthens our service offerings to global pharmaceutical manufacturers and provides an established platform for the introduction of our specialty services outside North America.  It operates in over 50 countries and has approximately 2,500 employees.  World Courier’s revenues are estimated to be approximately $500 million in calendar 2012.

 

Pharmaceutical Distribution

 

Our operations are comprised of one reportable segment, Pharmaceutical Distribution.  The Pharmaceutical Distribution reportable segment represents the consolidated operating results of the Company and is comprised of three operating segments, which include the operations of AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation (“ABDC”), AmerisourceBergen Specialty Group (“ABSG”), and AmerisourceBergen Consulting Services (“ABCS”).  Servicing both healthcare providers and pharmaceutical manufacturers in the pharmaceutical supply channel, the Pharmaceutical Distribution segment’s operations provide drug distribution and related services designed to reduce healthcare costs and improve patient outcomes.

 

Prior to fiscal 2012, the operations of American Health Packaging, Anderson Packaging (“Anderson”) and Brecon Pharmaceuticals Limited (“Brecon”) were included within what was known as the AmerisourceBergen Packaging Group operating segment.  Beginning in fiscal 2012, to increase our operating efficiencies and to better align our operations, the operations of American Health Packaging were combined with the ABDC operating segment and the operations of Anderson and Brecon were combined with the ABCS operating segment.

 

ABDC distributes a comprehensive offering of brand-name pharmaceuticals (including specialty pharmaceutical products) and generic pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter healthcare products, home healthcare supplies and equipment, and related services to a wide variety of healthcare providers, including acute care hospitals and health systems, independent and chain retail pharmacies, mail order pharmacies, medical clinics, long-term care and other alternate site pharmacies, and other customers.  ABDC also provides pharmacy management, staffing and other consulting services; scalable automated pharmacy dispensing equipment; medication and supply dispensing cabinets; and supply management software to a variety of retail and institutional healthcare providers.  Additionally, American Health Packaging delivers packaging solutions to institutional and retail healthcare providers.

Table of Contents

 

ABSG, through a number of operating businesses, provides pharmaceutical distribution and other services primarily to physicians who specialize in a variety of disease states, especially oncology, and to other healthcare providers, including dialysis clinics.  ABSG also distributes plasma and other blood products, injectible pharmaceuticals and vaccines.  Additionally, ABSG provides third party logistics and outcomes research, and other services for biotechnology and other pharmaceutical manufacturers.

 

Our use of the terms “specialty” and “specialty pharmaceutical products” refers to drugs used to treat complex diseases, such as cancer, diabetes and multiple sclerosis.  Specialty pharmaceutical products are part of complex treatment regimens for serious conditions and diseases that generally require ongoing clinical monitoring.  We believe the terms “specialty” and “specialty pharmaceutical products” are used consistently by industry participants and our competitors.  However, we cannot be certain that other distributors of specialty products define these and other similar terms in exactly the same manner as we do.

 

ABCS, through a number of operating businesses, provides commercialization support services including reimbursement support programs, outcomes research, contract field staffing, patient assistance and copay assistance programs, adherence programs, risk mitigation services, and other market access programs to pharmaceutical and biotechnology manufacturers.  Additionally, Anderson and Brecon (based in the United Kingdom) are leading providers of contract packaging and also provide clinical trials services for pharmaceutical manufacturers.
