EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Perrigo is a leading pure-play self-care company with more than a century of providing high-quality health and wellness solutions to meet the evolving needs of consumers. As one of the originators of the over-the-counter ("OTC") self-care market, Perrigo is led by its vision "To Provide The Best Self-Care For Everyone" and its purpose to "Make Lives Better Through Trusted Health and Wellness Solutions, Accessible To All".

Perrigo provides access to trusted self-care solutions that can be used without the need to visit a health practitioner for a prescription. Guided by our vision and purpose, our strategic goal is to create sustainable and value accretive growth by 1) delivering consumer preferred brands and innovation, 2) driving category growth with our customers, 3) powering our business with our world-class, quality assured supply chain, including a focus on sustainability with meaningful goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, water, and waste, in addition to increasing the recyclability of our packaging, and 4) evolving our global organization to one cohesive operating model. Our unique competency is to deliver health and wellness solutions across multiple price and value tiers that improve access and choice for consumers.

Perrigo's broad offerings are well diversified across several major product categories as well as across geographies, primarily in North America and Europe, with no one product representing more than 5% of total revenue. In North America, Perrigo is the leading store brand private label provider of self-care products in many categories, including upper respiratory, nutrition and women's health, along with brands including Opill® and Mederma®. In Europe, our portfolio consists primarily of brands, including Compeed®, EllaOne®, Solpadeine®, and ACO®.

Two key initiatives are fundamental to advancing our self-care strategy — our Supply Chain Reinvention Program, a global supply chain efficiency program, and Project Energize, a global investment and efficiency program. In addition, we continue to invest in other initiatives, including innovation, information systems and tools, and our people to drive consistent and sustainable results.

Perrigo’s unique complementary businesses enables each individually to play a specific reinforcing role, where 1) store brands and infant formula generate cash for investments into the Company’s key higher margin, higher growth or ‘High-Grow’ brands, 2) branding and innovation capabilities that deliver brand and store brand demand generation leading to stronger customer partnerships, 3) consumer-led innovation that is scaled across brands, store brands and geographies, and 4) the Company’s global supply chain scale and reach with 100-plus molecules, at 100% consumer price point coverage, serves the most consumers.

The Company’s plan to drive cash flow and total shareholder return is anchored behind its ‘Three-S’ plan – ‘Stabilizing’ Consumer Self-Care Americas store brand and infant formula businesses; ‘Streamlining’ the global portfolio, enterprise operating model and Consumer Self-Care International business; and ‘Strengthening’ what is working by prioritizing and increasing investments behind key ‘High-Grow’ brands.

Our fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. We end our quarterly accounting periods on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the fourth quarter ending on December 31 of each year.

Our Segments

Perrigo Company plc - Item 7

Executive Overview

Our reporting and operating segments reflect the way our chief operating decision maker, who is our CEO, makes operating decisions, allocates resources and manages the growth and profitability of the Company. Our reporting and operating segments are:

•Consumer Self-Care Americas ("CSCA") comprises our consumer self-care business in the U.S. and Canada.

•Consumer Self-Care International ("CSCI") comprises our consumer self-care business outside of the U.S. and Canada, primarily in Europe and Australia.

For information on each segment, our business environment, and competitive landscape, refer to Item 1. Business. For results by segment and geographic locations see below Segment Results and Item 8. Note 2 and Note 20.

Recent Developments

Market Factors and Trends

Economic Uncertainty

Current macroeconomic conditions remain very dynamic, including impacts from inflation and interest rates, volatile changes in foreign currency exchange rates, political unrest and uncertainty and legislative and regulatory changes. Any causes of market size contraction could reduce our sales or erode our operating margin and consequently reduce our net earnings and cash flows.

Our interest expense is impacted by the overall global economic and interest rate environment. We manage interest rate risk through our capital structure and the use of interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate on greater than 90% of our outstanding debt.

Inflationary Costs and Supply Chain

Supply chain disruptions continue in specific categories such as agricultural commodities due to climate impacts, and with supply shortages due to the Middle East conflict. While reducing in impact, inflationary pressures are still a factor on cost in major economies globally across food, energy and labor. We continue to experience employment vacancies and attrition in the labor market which negatively impacts productivity and has driven the need for wage rate increases and other retention benefits. We implemented a series of actions to substantially mitigate these and other inflationary cost pressures, such as strategic pricing and our Supply Chain Reinvention Program. Benefits from our actions have substantially offset the impacts of inflation to date. However, future supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures from the continuation of the conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and any escalating conflicts in the Middle East and neighboring regions are uncertain.

War in Ukraine

The invasion of Ukraine by Russia and resulting economic and political sanctions imposed by the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and other countries on Russia, Belarus, and occupied regions in Ukraine have negatively impacted our results from operations in the region. Future impacts are difficult to predict due to the high level of uncertainty related to the war’s duration, evolution and resolution. If the conflict spreads or materially escalates, or economic conditions deteriorate, the impact on our business and results of operations could be material.

Middle East Conflicts

We continue to closely monitor the ongoing conflict and the social, political and economic environment in Israel and in the surrounding region to evaluate the impacts on our operations and supply chain. Israel is a global technology research and development center that plays a critical role to the global Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients ("API") market, as a number of key suppliers are located within Israel. The Company sources some raw materials and finished goods from suppliers in Israel for certain self-care products, including Omeprazole. To date, Perrigo has confirmed that our suppliers in the region have active operations and continue to manufacture materials for us, and we have not received any reports of restrictions on imports or exports in Israel. However, there is potential for some disruption as it relates to in-country logistics, including freight. As a precaution, Perrigo has engaged alternate suppliers to help minimize a potential supply disruption. If the conflict spreads or materially escalates, or if the conflict leads to further volatility and uncertainty in financial markets or economic conditions, the impact on our business and results of operations could be material. This includes the related events developing in the Red Sea and their potential to disrupt supply chains and lead to further inflationary pressures which we are also continuing to monitor closely.

Executive Overview

Foreign Exchange

We have both translation and transaction exposure to the fluctuation of exchange rates. Translation exposures relate to exchange rate impacts of measuring income statements of foreign subsidiaries that do not use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Transaction exposures relate to 1) the impact from input costs that are denominated in a currency other than the local reporting currency and 2) the revaluation of transaction-related working capital balances denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. Significant exchange rate fluctuations, especially in the Euro or the British Pound Sterling, have had, and could continue to have, a significant impact on our net sales, net earnings and cash flows.

Infant Formula

As part of its efforts to prevent supply interruptions and risk of Cronobacter spp. illnesses associated with powdered infant formula, in March 2023, the FDA released an “Immediate National Strategy to Increase the Resiliency of the U.S. Infant Formula Market” and issued a letter to the powdered infant formula industry to share information to assist the industry in improving the microbiologic safety of powdered infant formula. In response to those changes, we made considerable investments in all our infant formula manufacturing sites. These investments included, among other things, enhancing our cleaning and sanitation protocols, our environmental monitoring programs, and quality oversight, as well as increasing the number of quality and operations personnel at the sites. These changes resulted in higher costs, lower manufacturing output, and lower production yields across our infant formula network.

As previously disclosed, the Company received a warning letter from the FDA on August 30, 2023 relating to the Perrigo Wisconsin infant formula facility, which was acquired from a third party in November 2022. While the Company was working to resolve the issues raised in the August 30 letter, on November 29, 2023, the Company received notice from the FDA of additional inspection observations relating to Perrigo Wisconsin. Consistent with the Company’s commitment to quality, the Company temporarily paused all production at that facility to address the FDA's observations. As part of this effort, the Company conducted an extended site-wide assessment and cleaning.

The Company also bolstered its internal resources and brought in additional outside expertise to help revise, enhance and strengthen comprehensive standards and processes across our infant formula network, including in some instances, pausing production for comprehensive cleaning and infrastructure improvements. All planned large-scale manufacturing plant improvements were completed in 2024, but the Company continues to implement the next phase of our quality enhancements, including further protocol, process and procedural improvements at the site level, and make additional investments to upgrade infrastructure. We do not expect these continuing improvements to result in extended shutdowns beyond those required for typical planned maintenance activities.

In October and November 2024, the FDA conducted its first inspection of the Perrigo Wisconsin infant formula facility since the November 2023 inspection.Following this 2024 inspection, the FDA did not issue written observations via a Form FDA 483.

Currently, all our infant formula manufacturing sites are up and running and have returned to reliable, quality-assured production with recent output across our infant formula network near historical levels. Our focus now lies in continuing to rebuild customer service levels and getting these critical products back on the shelves for consumers who need high-quality, affordable infant formula. With production now stabilized, we're driving strategic investments to strengthen the infant formula operations network to ensure the long-term sustainability of a key component of our CSCA business.

We have incurred certain extraordinary non-recurring costs associated with the remediation and enhancement actions described above and the evolving U.S. infant formula regulatory landscape, including consulting and legal fees relating to the Company’s responses to the FDA and the development and implementation of new protocols across our infant formula manufacturing sites, as well as other costs relating to the extended cleaning and sanitization and the pausing and restarting of production. Cash costs in 2024 to achieve the remediation and enhancement actions described above totaling $21.7 million were incurred. We also expect higher ongoing operating costs at our infant formula manufacturing sites moving forward as we continue to implement our enhanced program with additional internal capabilities. Due to these costs and the unabsorbed overhead and depressed sales volumes resulting from these actions, infant formula results in 2024 were below 2023 levels.

U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division Investigation

On July 29, 2024, the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice advised us that it no longer considers Perrigo a subject or target of the division’s grand jury investigation of antitrust violations in the generic drug industry. That investigation had stemmed from the Company’s Rx Pharmaceuticals business, which was divested in 2021.

Executive Overview

Restructuring

Supply Chain Reinvention Program

In 2022, we initiated a Supply Chain Reinvention Program to reduce structural costs, improve profitability and our service levels to our retail partners, and strengthen our resiliency by streamlining and simplifying our global supply chain. Through this initiative, we are reducing portfolio complexity, investing in advanced planning capabilities, diversifying sourcing, and optimizing our manufacturing assets and distribution models. We estimate a total annual run-rate potential savings opportunity by the end of fiscal year 2028 of between $200 million to $300 million (not including related depreciation expense on capital investments). To obtain these potential benefits, we anticipate incurring costs between $300 million to $350 million by the end of fiscal year 2028 to complete the program implementation, with the substantial portion of the costs incurred by the end of 2025, including capital investments, restructuring expenses and implementation costs. A significant portion of the annual run-rate potential savings of the Program, between $150 million to $200 million (not including related depreciation expense on capital investments), are anticipated by the end of fiscal year 2025.Refer to Item 8. Note 17 for further details on restructuring charges.

Project Energize

Perrigo has successfully transformed into a pure-play consumer self-care company and is now embarking on the next stage of its self-care journey - evolving to One Perrigo. This evolution will create sustainable, value accretive growth through a business model that better positions the Company to win in self-care.

As part of the Company's sustainable, value accretive growth strategy, the Company launched Project Energize - a global investment and efficiency program to drive the next evolution of capabilities and organizational agility. This three-year program is expected to produce significant benefits in the Company’s long-term business performance by enabling our One Perrigo growth strategy, increasing organizational agility and mitigating impacts from stabilizing and strengthening the infant formula business.

Project Energize was initiated in the first quarter of 2024, subject to local law and consultation requirements, and is expected to deliver annualized pre-tax savings in the range of $140 million to $170 million by the end of 2026. The Company expects an annual reinvestment of approximately $40 million to $60 million of these savings to drive its business model. Restructuring and related charges associated with these actions are estimated to be in the range of $140 million to $160 million, including $20 million to $40 million in investments to enhance capabilities, and are expected to be substantially incurred by the end of 2026. Restructuring activities as part of Project Energize are expected to result in the net reduction of approximately 6% of total Perrigo roles. Refer to Item 8. Note 17 for further details on restructuring charges.

Indebtedness and Capital

On September 17, 2024, Perrigo Finance Unlimited Company ("Perrigo Finance"), a public unlimited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland and an indirect wholly-owned finance subsidiary of Perrigo whose primary purpose is to finance the business and operations of Perrigo and its affiliates, issued $715 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Notes due 2032 (the "USD Notes due 2032") and €350 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2032 (the "Euro Notes due 2032" and together with the USD Notes due 2032, the "2032 Notes"). Net proceeds from the 2032 Notes were used to prepay a portion of the Term Loan B Facility (as defined below) on September 19, 2024 and the remaining proceeds were used to fund the redemption of $700.0 million of the 4.375% Notes due 2026 on October 2, 2024.

In December 2024, we and the Borrower entered into Amendment No. 2, an Incremental Assumption Agreement to our Term Loan and Revolving Credit Agreement that provides for the refinancing of the Term B Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $984.7 million. Refer to Item 8. Note 12.

Executive Overview

Divestitures

On July 10, 2024, we completed the sale of our HRA Pharma Rare Diseases Business (the "Rare Diseases Business") to Esteve Healthcare S.L. ("ESTEVE") for total consideration of $244.5 million, inclusive of net cash received, an estimated working capital adjustment, and contingent consideration with a fair value of $34.5 million as of December 31, 2024.

Operating income % 2.6 % 3.3 %

Net sales decreased $282.2 million, or 6.1%, primarily due to:

•$206.1 million decrease, or 4.5%, due primarily to $179.2 million of lower net sales volumes, previously disclosed lost distribution of lower margin products, and a later start to the cough and cold season, primarily impacting the Pain & Sleep Aids, Upper Respiratory Digestive Health, and Oral Care categories compared to the prior year and $108.4 million of lower net sales in U.S. Nutrition category driven by actions to augment and strengthen infant formula network. These factors were partially offset by growth in Women's Health and Skin Care; and

•$50.6 million decrease from the divestitures of the Rare Diseases Business, Hospital and Specialty Business and the sale of branded products; and

•$15.1 million decrease from exited product lines; and

•$10.4 million decrease from unfavorable foreign currency translation.

Operating income decreased $39.0 million, or 25.7%, due to:

•$137.7 million decrease in gross profit driven by the impact of lower global OTC net sales volumes resulting from a focus on production of higher margin products, including positive impacts from $57.1 million of new products, and lower infant formula volumes within U.S. Nutrition driven by actions to augment and strengthen the infant formula network. These lower sales volumes led to lower manufacturing productivity of

$131.1 million which was partially offset by benefits from strategic pricing actions and savings achieved through Supply Chain Reinvention and Project Energize of $56.6 million. Additionally, exited products and divested businesses negatively impacted gross profit by $35.8 million and $17.5 million negative impact from infant formula remediation. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 80 basis points compared to the prior year due to the same factors that impacted gross profit; and

•$98.7 million decrease in operating expenses due primarily to lower selling and administrative costs of $149.4 million due primarily to Project Energize and lower variable employee costs. These decreases were partially offset by increased restructuring expense of approximately $68 million and higher advertising and promotion costs compared to the prior year.

These product categories have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the changes and have no impact on historical financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Sales in each category were driven primarily by:

•Upper Respiratory: Net sales of $500.3 million decreased 10.9% due primarily to 7.3 percentage points reduction from portfolio optimization actions and net lost distribution of lower margin products, in addition to lower consumer demand for cough cold and allergy products. These impacts more than offset strong growth of Nasonex® and Triamcinolone Acetonide in the category;

CSCA

•Digestive Health: Net sales of $497.4 million decreased 2.0% as higher volumes of antacid and laxative products, including Polyethylene Glycol, were more than offset by 3.4 percentage points reduction from exited product lines and portfolio optimization actions, lost distribution of lower margin products in U.S. Store Brand and lower volume of proton pump inhibitors, including Omeprazole, Esomeprazole and Lansoprazole, despite Perrigo share gains;

•Nutrition: Net sales of $449.5 million decreased 20.2% as increases in net sales of infant formula products as the Company continues to refill store brand and contract customer inventories and regain market share was more than offset by lower shipments to customers in the first half of the year as the Company worked through its infant formula plant remediation plans and a 0.8 percentage points decline from exited product lines in the category;

•Pain and Sleep-Aids: Net sales of $345.5 million decreased 13.0% due primarily to net lost distribution of lower margin products, purposeful SKU prioritization actions and exited product lines, which had an aggregate negative impact of 10.3 percentage points. In addition, inventory reductions by U.S. retail customers resulted in lower net sales of pain and sleep-aid products;

•Healthy Lifestyle: Net sales of $306.8 million decreased 1.5% due primarily to lower category consumption compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher net sales of nicotine lozenges, including the new product launch of the Nicotine Ice Mint Lozenge, higher net sales of nicotine gums and market share gains;

•Oral Care: Net sales of $275.4 million decreased 11.3% due primarily to lower distribution at specific retail customers and lower net sales of store brand whitening, partially offset by higher net sales of Reach® travel kits;

•Skin Care: Net sales of $220.1 million decreased 8.5% due primarily to net lost distribution of lower margin products, portfolio optimization actions and exited product lines, which had an aggregate negative impact of 8.4 percentage points. These impacts more than offset strong growth of Mederma® and growth within the Minoxidil franchise;

•Women's Health: Net sales of $81.1 million increased 67.0% due primarily to the new product launch of Opill® and higher net sales of feminine hygiene products, partially offset by 3.9 percentage point reduction from exited product lines;

•VMS and Other: Net sales of $17.6 million decreased 20.4% due primarily to volume decline in Other and purposeful SKU prioritization actions.

Operating income decreased $119.7 million, or 30.7%, due primarily to:

These lower sales volumes led to lower manufacturing productivity of $111.4 million which was partially offset by the savings from strategic pricing benefits and savings achieved through Supply Chain Reinvention and Project Energize of $55.8 million. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 180 basis points compared to the prior year due to the same factors that impacted gross profit, partially offset by favorable product mix, including higher margin new products and lost distribution of lower margin products.

•$9.6 million decrease in operating expenses due primarily to lower administrative and selling costs of $57.4 million due primarily to Project Energize and lower variable employee costs. These decreases were partially offset by impairment charges of $38.6 million, higher restructuring costs and higher advertising and promotion compared to the prior year, primarily for Opill®.

Sales in each category were driven primarily by:

•Skin Care: Net sales of $410.0 million increased 10.1%, inclusive of a 2.7% unfavorable effect of currency translation, driven primarily by strong growth in Compeed® driven by the new product launch of Compeed Spots, and strong sales within the Sebamed and ACO brand lines. The category also benefited from the absence of prior year distribution transitions;

•Upper Respiratory: Net sales of $282.1 million decreased 5.7%, inclusive of a 1.1% favorable effect of currency translation, due primarily to lower net sales of cough cold products stemming from lower incidence of cough cold throughout the E.U. compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher net sales of Bronchenolo®, Bronchostop® and Coldrex® which benefited from category growth and market share gains;

•Healthy Lifestyle: Net sales of $225.8 million remained flat, inclusive of a 3.4% unfavorable effect of currency translation, due primarily to higher net sales of anti-parasite offerings, including Paranix and Jungle Formula, were offset by lower category consumption in weight loss, impacting XLS Medical®;

•Digestive Health and Other: Net sales of $133.8 million decreased 19.6%, inclusive of a 0.4% favorable effect of currency translation, due primarily to the divestiture of the Rare Diseases Business, partially offset by higher net sales of store brand digestive health products.

Operating income increased $140.2 million, or 398.3%, due to:

•$8.5 million decrease in gross profit due primarily to the impact of lower net sales volumes of $85.5 million, divested businesses and exited product lines of approximately $34 million, and negative impacts from cost of goods sold inflation. The impact of lower net sales volumes was partially offset by higher gross profit flow through from strategic pricing actions and new products of $141.5 million. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales remained flat compared to the prior year due to the same factors that impacted gross profit; and

•$148.7 million decrease in operating expenses due primarily to lower selling and administrative costs of $110.8 million due primarily to Project Energize and lower variable employee costs, $39.6 million decrease in impairment charges compared to the prior year, and approximately $28 million of income recognized as a gain on the sale of branded products during the current year. These decreases were partially offset by increased restructuring expense of approximately $32 million.

Unallocated Expenses

Unallocated expenses are comprised of certain corporate services not allocated to our reporting segments and are recorded in Operating income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Unallocated expenses were as follows (in millions):

Unallocated, Interest, Other, and Taxes

Interest Expense, net

The $14.0 million increase during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year was due primarily to the de-designation of interest rate swap agreements. There were several derivative and debt transactions entered into over the course of the year to manage interest expense, refer to Item 8. Note 11 and Note 12 for details.

Other (Income) Expense, net

The $9.5 million decrease in income during the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the prior year was due primarily to higher prior year milestone income related to legacy royalty rights.

(Gain) loss on extinguishment of debt

The $6.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt during the year ended December 31, 2024 is primarily related to the unamortized fees associated with the partial payment on the Term Loan B Facility (refer to Item 8.

Income Taxes (Consolidated)

The effective tax rates were as follows:

Year Ended

The effective tax rate on the pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, increased when compared to the effective tax rate on the pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to the net impact of an intercompany intellectual property sale, and the establishment of a partial valuation allowance in the United States, offset by the impact of audit settlements in the prior year.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

We finance our operations with internally generated funds, supplemented by credit arrangements with third parties and capital market financing. We routinely monitor current and expected operational requirements and financial market conditions to evaluate other available financing sources including term and revolving bank credit and securities offerings. In determining our future capital requirements, we regularly consider, among other factors, known trends and uncertainties, such as the war in Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, inflation and interest rates, the status of material contingent liabilities, recent financial market volatility and other uncertainties. Additionally, we have considered investments in capital expenditures related to the progression of infant formula plant investments, our Supply Chain Reinvention Program, and Project Energize. Subject to relevant restrictions under our debt agreements, our cash requirements for other purposes and other factors management deems relevant, we may from time to time use available funds to redeem, repurchase or refinance our debt in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at prices and on terms we deem appropriate (which may be below par).

Based on the foregoing, management believes that our operations and borrowing resources are sufficient to provide for our short-term and long-term capital requirements, as described below. However, an adverse result with respect to our appeal of any material outstanding tax assessments or litigation, including securities or drug pricing matters and product liability cases, damages resulting from third-party claims, and related interest and/or penalties, could ultimately require the use of corporate assets to pay such assessments, and any such use of corporate assets would limit the assets available for other corporate purposes. As such, we continue to evaluate the impact of the above factors on liquidity and may determine that modifications to our capital structure are appropriate if market conditions deteriorate, favorable capital market opportunities become available, or any change in conditions relating to the war in Ukraine and conflicts in the Middle East, inflation and interest rates, the status of material contingent liabilities, financial market volatility or other uncertainties have a material impact on our capital requirements.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Year Ended

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash(1) $ 558.8 $ 751.3

(1)We had $7.0 million of restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023. We had no restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024.

(2)Working capital represents current assets less current liabilities, excluding cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and excluding current indebtedness.

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, cash flows from operations, and borrowings available under our credit facilities are expected to be sufficient to finance our liquidity and capital expenditures in both the short and long term. Although our lenders have made commitments to make funds available to us in a timely fashion under our revolving credit agreements and overdraft facilities, if economic conditions worsen or new information becomes publicly available impacting the institutions’ credit rating or capital ratios, these lenders may be unable or unwilling to lend money pursuant to our existing credit facilities. Should our outlook on liquidity requirements change substantially from current projections, we may seek additional sources of liquidity in the future.

Cash Flows

The following table includes summarized cash flow activities:

Year Ended

Net cash from operating activities $ 362.9 $ 405.5 $ (42.6)

Net cash from (for) investing activities 78.8 (77.5) 156.3

Net cash from (for) financing activities (611.0) (187.2) (423.8)

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents (23.2) 9.8 (33.0)

Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents $ (192.5) $ 150.6 $ (343.1)

Net cash from Operating Activities

The $42.6 million decrease in operating cash inflow was primarily driven by a decrease in cash flow from the change in net earnings after adjustments including deferred income taxes, restructuring charges, settlement of interest rate derivatives, the gain on sale of branded products in addition to higher working capital, primarily related to restructuring costs.

Net cash (for) from Investing Activities

The $156.3 million increase in cash from investing cash flow was due primarily to the proceeds from the sale of the Rare Diseases and Hospital & Specialty Businesses, proceeds from the sale of branded products in the current year, partially offset by the settlement of foreign currency derivatives and purchase of an intangible asset in the current year.

Capital expenditures totaled $118.3 million in 2024. We anticipate 2025 capital expenditures to be between $120 million and $160 million, depending on the progression of infant formula plant investments, our Supply Chain Reinvention Program, Project Energize, and project timelines related to manufacturing productivity and efficiency upgrades, software and technology initiatives, and general plant maintenance. We expect to fund these estimated capital expenditures with funds from operating cash flows.

Net cash (for) from Financing Activities

The $423.8 million decrease in financing cash flow was due to the pay down of the 2024 Notes utilizing cash on hand and proceeds from the sale of the Rare Diseases Business. Additionally, we redeemed in full $700 million in aggregate principal amount of the 4.375% senior notes due 2026 and made a principal prepayment of $391.0 million on the Term Loan B facility during the current year utilizing proceeds from debt issuances of approximately $1.1 billion from the 2032 Notes, as defined in Item 8. Note 12. Additionally, we increased our dividend payment by $2.8 million compared to the prior year.

Share Repurchases

In October 2018, our Board of Directors authorized up to $1.0 billion of share repurchases with no expiration date, subject to the Board of Directors’ approval of the pricing parameters and amount that may be repurchased under each specific share repurchase program. We did not repurchase any shares during the year ended December 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. The future repurchase of shares, if any, is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Dividends

In January 2003, the Board of Directors adopted a policy of paying quarterly dividends. We paid dividends as follows:

Dividends paid (in millions) $ 152.5 $ 149.7

Dividends paid per share $ 1.10 $ 1.09

The declaration and payment of dividends, if any, is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, availability of distributable reserves, capital and surplus requirements, and other factors our Board of Directors may consider relevant.

Borrowings and Capital Resources

Note Issuances

On September 17, 2024, Perrigo Finance issued the 2032 Notes as defined in Item 8. Note 12. The 2032 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Perrigo and its subsidiaries that provide guarantees under Perrigo's Senior Secured Credit Facilities (as defined below). Net proceeds from the 2032 Notes were used to prepay a portion of the Term Loan B Facility (as defined below) on September 19, 2024 and the remaining proceeds were used to fund the redemption of $700 million of the 4.375% Notes due 2026 on October 2, 2024. As a result of the redemption, we recognized an extinguishment loss of $6.7 million during the year.

Credit Agreements

On April 20, 2022, we and our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Perrigo Investments, LLC (the "Borrower") entered into the senior secured credit facilities, which consisted of (i) a $1.0 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "Revolver"), (ii) a $500.0 million five-year Term Loan A facility (the "Term Loan A Facility" and the Term A Loans thereunder, the "Term A Loans"), and (iii) a $1.1 billion seven-year Term Loan B Facility (the "Term Loan B Facility" and the Term B Loans thereunder borrowed on April 20, 2022, the "2022 Term B Loans" and, together with the Revolver and Term Loan A Facility, the "Senior Secured Credit Facilities"), pursuant to a Term Loan and Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement").

On December 15, 2023, we and the Borrower entered into Amendment No. 1, an Incremental Assumption Agreement (the "Amendment") to the Credit Agreement. The Amendment provides for a fungible add on to the 2022 Term B Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million (the "Incremental Term B Loans" and together with the 2022 Term B Loans, the “Term B Loans”). The terms of the Incremental Term B Loans, including pricing and maturity, are identical to the 2022 Term B Loans. The Term B Loans will mature on April 20, 2029. The net proceeds from the Incremental Term B Loans were used to settle the cash tender offer by Perrigo Finance for $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.900% Senior Notes due 2024 ("2024 Notes"). The tender offer was settled on

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

December 15, 2023, and Perrigo Finance accepted for purchase $300.0 million of the 2024 Notes and paid approximately $295.1 million in aggregate cash consideration (excluding accrued interest).

In December 2024, we and the Borrower entered into Amendment No. 2, an Incremental Assumption Agreement to our Term Loan and Revolving Credit Agreement that provides for the refinancing of the Term B Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $984.7 million. Refer to Item 8. Note 12.

Our short term debt as of December 31, 2024 of $36.4 million is comprised of (i) amortization payments for the Term A Loans and the Term B Loans and (ii) lease payments.

Term Loans and Notes

As of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $1,429.1 million and $1,858.1 million, respectively, outstanding under our Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility.

The interest rate net of derivatives results in a fixed rate on a substantial portion of our long-term debt, the earliest of which matures in April 2027.

We are in compliance with all the covenants under our debt agreements as of December 31, 2024.

Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Borrower’s option and depending on the currency borrowed, either the adjusted Term SOFR Rate, EURIBOR Rate, the prime lending rate or the daily simple RFR rate (each as defined in the Credit Agreement), in each case, plus an applicable margin. Applicable margins and fees are outlined below:

Applicable Margins

(1) Applicable margins are dependent upon our total net leverage ratio

(2) Payable on the undrawn amount

The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by us and certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in the U.S., Ireland, Belgium, England and Wales (subject to certain exceptions) (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries” and together with the Company, the “Guarantors” and together with the Borrower, the "Loan Parties"). The Loan Parties’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured, subject to customary permitted liens and other exceptions, by a security interest in all tangible and intangible assets of the Loan Parties, except for certain excluded assets. We may make voluntary prepayments at any time without payment of a premium or penalty, subject to certain exceptions, and are required to make certain mandatory prepayments of outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement in certain circumstances. Principal repayments of the Term Loan B Facility, which are due quarterly, are equal to 1.0% per annum (adjusted, in the case of incremental loans, to enable fungibility), with any remaining balance payable on the maturity date. Principal repayments of the Term Loan A Facility, which are due quarterly, began in September 2022 and are equal to (i) for the first year anniversary of the Closing Date (as defined in the Credit Agreement), 2.5% per annum of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A Facility incurred and (ii) after the first year anniversary of the Closing Date, 5.0% per annum of the original principal amount of the Term Loan A Facility incurred, with any remaining balance payable on the maturity date. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, prepayment of junior indebtedness and dividends and other distributions. The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries to (a) not exceed a maximum first lien secured net leverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter and (b) not fall below a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter, provided that such covenants apply only to the Revolver and the Term Loan A Facility. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, failure to make payments, breach of covenants and breach of representations. If we consummate certain qualifying acquisitions during the term of the loan, the maximum first lien secured net leverage ratio covenant would increase to 3.25 to 1.00 for such quarter and the three following fiscal quarters thereafter.

Leases

We had $195.1 million and $202.2 million of lease liabilities and $186.9 million and $197.3 million of lease assets as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. For information on our operating and finance lease obligations and the amount and timing of future payments refer to Item 8. Note 8.

Available Resources

We have overdraft facilities available that we use to support our cash management operations. We report any balances outstanding in "Other Financing" in Item 8. Note 12. There were no borrowings outstanding under the overdraft facilities as of December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

There were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver as ofDecember 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023. We are subject to certain financial covenants in the Revolver and Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all such covenants under our debt agreements.

Credit Ratings

Our credit ratings on December 31, 2024 were Ba2 (negative), BB- (stable), and BB (negative), by Moody's Investor Services, S&P Global Ratings ("S&P"), and Fitch Ratings Inc. ("Fitch"), respectively. On March 25, 2024, S&P downgraded our issuer credit rating to BB- from BB, senior secured notes ratings to BB from BB+ and senior unsecured notes ratings to B+ from BB- and the rating outlooks remained stable. On April 16, 2024, Fitch downgraded our issuer credit rating to BB from BB+ and the rating outlooks remained negative.

Due to the downgrade by S&P, the interest of the 3.150% Senior Notes due 2030 stepped up from 4.650% to 4.900% on payments made after June 15, 2024. There was no impact to our interest rates as a result of the Fitch downgrade. Future interest rate adjustments of the 3.150% Senior Notes due 2030 are subject to a 2.0% total cap above the original 3.150% interest rate which would result in an interest rate not to exceed 5.150% based on certain rating events as specified in the Note’s Supplemental Indenture No. 3, dated as of June 19, 2020, among Perrigo Finance Unlimited Company, Perrigo Company plc and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee.

Guarantor Financial Information

As detailed in Item 8. Note 12, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Borrower provide full and unconditional guarantees, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, of the 5.300% Notes due 2043 issued by the Company, and the Loan Parties provide full and unconditional guarantees, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, of the 4.900% Notes due 2030, the 5.375% Euro Notes due 2032, the 6.125% USD Notes due 2032, and the 4.900% Notes due 2044 issued by Perrigo Finance.

The guarantees of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Company and the Borrower are subject to release in limited circumstances only upon the occurrence of certain customary conditions. The guarantees of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Company and the Borrower rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated indebtedness of the Company, equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior indebtedness and effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness.

Contractual Obligations

Our enforceable and legally binding obligations as of December 31, 2024 are set forth in the following table. Some of the amounts included in this table are based on management’s estimates and assumptions about these obligations, including the duration, the possibility of renewal, anticipated actions by third parties and other factors. Because these estimates and assumptions are necessarily subjective, the enforceable and legally binding obligations actually paid in future periods may vary from the amounts reflected in the table (in millions):

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

(4)Includes amounts associated with non-qualified plans related to deferred compensation, executive retention and post-employment benefits. Of this amount, we have funded $36.7 million, which is recorded in Other non-current assets on the balance sheet. These amounts are assumed payable after five years, although certain circumstances, such as termination, would require earlier payment.

(5)Primarily includes consulting fees, legal settlements, restructuring accruals, insurance obligations, and electrical and gas purchase contracts, which were accrued in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities at December 31, 2024 for all years.

We fund our U.S. qualified profit-sharing and investment plan in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 regulations for the minimum annual required contribution and Internal Revenue Service regulations for the maximum annual allowable tax deduction. We are committed to making the required minimum contributions, which we expect to be approximately $39.1 million over the next 12 months. Future contributions are dependent upon various factors, including employees’ eligible compensation, plan participation and changes, if any, to current funding requirements. Therefore, no amounts were included in the Contractual Obligations table above. We generally expect to fund all future contributions with cash flows from operating activities.

As of December 31, 2024, we had approximately $309.8 million of liabilities for uncertain tax positions, including interest and penalties. These liabilities have been excluded from the Contractual Obligations table above, and the related tax benefits have not been recognized, due to uncertainty as to the amounts and timing of settlement with taxing authorities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported earnings, financial position and various disclosures. Critical accounting estimates involve a significant level of uncertainty and could have a material impact on results. These estimates are based on judgment and available information. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.

Income Taxes

We earn income in numerous countries and this income is subject to the laws of taxing jurisdictions within those countries. Significant judgement is required in determining our worldwide effective tax rate, provision for income taxes and recording the related deferred tax assets and liabilities. Our annual effective tax rate is determined based on our income, statutory tax rates and the tax impacts of items treated differently for tax purposes than for financial reporting purposes. Also inherent in determining our annual effective tax rate are judgements and assumptions related to, among other things, the recoverability of certain deferred tax balances, primarily net operating loss and other carryforwards; our ability to uphold certain tax positions; adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns; changes in available tax credits, grants and other incentives; changes in stock-based compensation expense; changes in U.S. GAAP; expiration of or the inability to renew tax rulings or tax holiday incentives; and the repatriation of earnings with respect to which we have not previously provided taxes. There are inherent uncertainties related to the interpretations of tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate and our interpretation of transfer pricing standards. These judgments and estimates made at a point in time may change based on the outcome of tax audits and changes to, or further interpretations of, regulations. If such changes take place, there is a risk that our tax rate may increase or decrease in any period, which would impact our earnings. Future business results may affect deferred tax liabilities or the valuation of deferred tax assets over time. For the year ended December 31, 2024, we recorded a net increase in valuation allowances of $47.7 million comprised primarily of additional valuation allowance on certain non-deductible interest carryforward assets, which are no longer realizable.

Additionally, the final determination with respect to any tax audit, and any related litigation, could be materially different from our estimates or from our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Future period earnings may also be adversely impacted by litigation costs, settlements, penalties, and/or interest assessments. Refer to Item 8. Note 18 for additional details on the Company's income taxes.

Legal Contingencies

We are involved in product liability, patent, commercial, regulatory and other legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. Other than loss contingencies that are assumed in business combinations for which we can reliably estimate the fair value, we record a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a probable loss is a range and no amount within that range is a better estimate, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. If a loss is not probable or a probable loss cannot be

52

Perrigo Company plc - Item 7

Critical Accounting Estimates

reasonably estimated, no liability is recorded. We evaluate our exposure to loss based on the progress of each contingency, experience in similar contingencies and consultation with our legal counsel and have established reserves for certain of our legal matters. We re-evaluate all contingencies as additional information becomes available and adjustments are made to ensure estimates reflect an accurate liability until the contingency in question is ultimately settled. We do not incorporate insurance recoveries into our reserves for legal contingencies. We separately record receivables for amounts due under insurance policies when we consider the realization of recoveries for claims to be probable, which may be different than the timing in which we establish the loss reserves. Given the uncertainties inherent in complex litigation and other contingencies, these evaluations can involve significant judgement about future events. The ultimate outcome of any litigation or other contingency may be material to our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. At December 31, 2024 and 2023, the loss accrual for litigation contingencies reflected on the balance sheet in Other accrued liabilities was $76.8 million and $66.9 million, respectively. Refer to Item 8. Note 19 for additional details on the Company's contingencies.

Acquisition Accounting

We account for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at fair value, with limited exceptions. Any excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the specifically identified assets is recorded as goodwill. If the acquired net assets do not constitute a business, or substantially all of the fair value is in a single asset or group of similar assets, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition and no goodwill is recognized. In an asset acquisition, acquired IPR&D with no alternative future use is charged to expense at the acquisition date.

Significant judgment is required in estimating the fair value of intangible assets and in assigning their respective useful lives. The acquired intangible assets can include customer relationships, trademarks, trade names, brands, developed product technology and IPR&D assets. For acquisitions accounted for as business combinations, IPR&D is considered to be an indefinite-lived intangible asset until the research is completed, at which point it then becomes a definite-lived intangible asset, or is determined to have no future use and is then impaired and charged to expense. There are several methods that can be used to determine the fair value of our intangible assets. We typically use an income approach to value the specifically identifiable intangible assets which is based on forecasts of the expected future cash flows. We have historically used a relief from royalty or multi-period excess earnings methodology. The fair value estimates are based on available historical information and on future expectations and assumptions deemed reasonable by management. We typically consult with an independent advisor to assist in the valuation of these intangible assets. Significant estimates and assumptions inherent in the valuations include discount rates, revenue growth assumptions and expected profit margins. We consider marketplace participant assumptions in determining the amount and timing of future cash flows along with the length of our customer relationships, attrition, product or technology life cycles, barriers to entry and the risk associated with the cash flows in concluding upon our discount rate. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, we may record adjustments to the purchase accounting. In addition, unanticipated market or macroeconomic events and circumstances may occur that could affect the accuracy or validity of the estimates and assumptions used at the time of the acquisition.

Our assessment as to the useful lives of intangible assets is based on a number of factors including competitive environment, market share, trademark, brand history, underlying product life cycles, operating plans and the macroeconomic environment of the countries in which the trademarked or branded products are sold. Determining the useful life of an intangible asset requires judgement, as different assets will have different useful lives or may even have an indefinite life. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized to expense over their estimated useful life.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents amounts paid for an acquisition of a business in excess of the fair value of net assets received. We perform annual goodwill impairment testing on the first day of the fourth quarter. As of December 31, 2024, we have two reporting units. Our CSCA operating segment is equivalent to our CSCA reporting unit, and following our divestiture of the Rare Diseases reporting unit on July 10, 2024, our CSCI operating segment is now equivalent to our CSCI reporting unit.

The test for impairment requires us to make several significant assumptions that impact our estimate of the fair value of a reporting unit, including the perpetual growth rate and discount rate. These assumptions are considered critical due to the sensitivity of changes in these assumptions to the related estimate of fair value. The discount

53

Perrigo Company plc - Item 7

Critical Accounting Estimates

rates used in testing each of our reporting units’ goodwill for impairment during our testing were based on the weighted average cost of capital determined for each of our reporting units. In our annual impairment test as of September 29, 2024, discount rates ranged from 10.00% to 11.25%, and perpetual growth rates were 2.50%. In our annual impairment test as of October 1, 2023, discount rates ranged from 10.75% to 12.00%, and perpetual growth rates were 2.50%.

The cash flow forecasts used for our reporting units include assumptions about future activity levels in the near term and longer-term. If growth in our reporting units is lower than expected, we may experience deterioration in our cash flow forecasts that may indicate goodwill in one or more reporting units is impaired in future impairment tests. An increase in the discount rate could negatively impact the estimated fair value of the reporting units and lead to future impairment. Furthermore, our estimates of fair value give consideration to the level of implied control premium, which is the amount a buyer is willing to pay over the current market price of a company (i.e. market capitalization) to acquire a controlling interest. We may experience a sustained decrease in our market capitalization which could imply an impairment of one or more of our reporting units.

We performed sensitivity analyses on the discounted cash flow valuations that were prepared to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. Discount rates and perpetual revenue growth rates were increased and decreased by increments of 25 or 50 basis points. For the CSCI reporting unit, the fair value exceeded our carrying amount by less than 10% as of the annual testing date. Therefore, a 75 basis point increase in the discount rate, or a 50 basis point increase in the discount rate combined with a 25 basis point decrease in the perpetual growth rate, would indicate potential impairment for this reporting unit. For the CSCA reporting unit, the fair value exceeded our carrying amount by less than 20% as of the annual testing date. A 125 basis point increase in the discount rate, or a 100 basis point increase in the discount rate combined with a 125 basis point decrease in the perpetual growth rate, would indicate potential impairment for this reporting unit. Both the CSCI and CSCA reporting unit's fair value includes material benefits from our Corporate led initiatives, the Supply Chain Reinvention program, and Project Energize, and, as a result, the reporting unit is sensitive to changes in estimates related to the Supply Chain Reinvention Program and Project Energize. Reductions in the net projected benefits could represent a potential indicator of impairment requiring further impairment analysis.

Based on the sensitivity of the discount rate assumptions on these analyses, an increase in the discount rate over the next twelve months could negatively impact the estimated fair value of the reporting units and lead to a future impairment. Certain macroeconomic factors which are not controlled by the reporting units, such as rising inflation or interest rates, could cause an increase in the discount rate to occur. Deterioration in performance of our reporting units over the next twelve months, such as lower than expected revenue or profitability that has a sustained impact on future periods, could also represent potential indicators of impairment requiring further impairment analysis. We have experienced significant decreases in our market capitalization. Given the sensitivity of assumptions on control premium, further decreases in our market capitalization in the next twelve months, could represent a potential impairment indicator requiring further impairment analysis.

During the three months ending June 29, 2024, we recorded goodwill impairment charge of $22.1 million related to our now divested Rare Disease reporting unit. During the three months ended September 28, 2024, we recorded impairment charge of $5.4 million for our CSCI reporting unit related to the now divested Hospital & Specialty disposal group. During 2023, we recorded goodwill impairment charges of $90.0 million. We continue to monitor the progress of our reporting units and assess them for potential impairment should impairment indicators arise, as applicable, and at least annually during our fourth quarter impairment testing.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Exchange Risk

We are a global company with operations primarily throughout North America, Europe, China, and Australia. We transact business in each location's local currency and in foreign currencies, thereby creating exposures to changes in exchange rates. Our largest exposure is the movement of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro.

54

Perrigo Company plc - Item 7A

Due to different sales and cost structures, certain segments experience a negative impact and certain segments a positive impact as a result of changes in exchange rates. We estimate the translation effect of a ten percent devaluation of the U.S. dollar relative to the other foreign currencies in which we transact business would not materially affect operating income of our non U.S. operating units for the year ended December 31, 2024. This sensitivity analysis has inherent limitations. The analysis disregards the possibility that rates of multiple foreign currencies will not always move in the same direction relative to the value of the U.S. dollar over time and does not account for foreign exchange derivatives that we utilize to mitigate fluctuations in exchange rates.

In addition, we enter into certain purchase commitments for materials that, although denominated in U.S. dollars, are linked to foreign currency valuations. These commitments generally contain a range for which the price of materials may fluctuate over time given the value of a foreign currency.

The translation of the assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. dollar denominated operations is made using local currency exchange rates as of the end of the year. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are disclosed in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") within shareholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets until a sale or substantially complete liquidation of the net investment in the subsidiary takes place. In certain markets, we could recognize a significant gain or loss related to unrealized cumulative translation adjustments if we were to exit the market and liquidate our net investment. As of December 31, 2024, cumulative net currency translation adjustments decreased shareholders’ equity by $196.0 million.

We monitor and strive to manage risk related to foreign currency exchange rates. Exposures that cannot be naturally offset within a local entity to an immaterial amount are often hedged with foreign exchange derivatives or netted with offsetting exposures at other entities. We cannot predict future changes in foreign currency movements and fluctuations that could materially impact earnings.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of interest income earned on our investment of cash on hand and interest expense on borrowings. We have in the past, and may in the future, enter into certain derivative financial instruments related to the management of interest rate risk, when available on a cost-effective basis. These instruments are managed on a consolidated basis to efficiently net exposures and thus take advantage of any natural offsets. Gains and losses on hedging transactions are offset by gains and losses on the underlying exposures being hedged. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. A 1% increase in interest rates would result in approximately $2.3 million of additional annual interest expense in 2025.

Inflation Risk

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our products and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. A high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling and administration expenses if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs. We manage the impact of inflation through pricing and supply chain cost reduction and optimization initiatives. Refer to Item 8. Note 1 and Note 11 for further information regarding our derivative instruments and hedging activities.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Perrigo Company plc

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Perrigo Company plc (the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 28, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The management of Perrigo Company plc is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

•Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

•Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

•Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All systems of internal control, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems deemed to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. The framework used in carrying out our evaluation was the 2013 Internal Control - Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations ("COSO") of the Treadway Commission. In evaluating our information technology controls, we also used components of the framework contained in the Control Objectives for Information and Related Technology, which was developed by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association’s IT Governance Institute, as a complement to the COSO internal control framework. Management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2024. The results of management’s assessment have been reviewed with our Audit Committee.

Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited our financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, also audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as stated in their report that is included herein.

Perrigo Company plc - Item 8

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Perrigo Company plc

Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited Perrigo Company plc’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Perrigo Company plc (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes and our report dated February 28, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Note 1

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General Information

Perrigo Company plc was incorporated under the laws of Ireland on June 28, 2013 and became the successor registrant of Perrigo Company, a Michigan corporation, on December 18, 2013 in connection with the acquisition of Elan Corporation, plc ("Elan"). Unless the context requires otherwise, the terms "Perrigo," the "Company," "we," "our," "us," and similar pronouns used herein refer to Perrigo Company plc, its subsidiaries, and all predecessors of Perrigo Company plc and its subsidiaries.

Perrigo is a leading pure-play self-care company with more than a century of providing high-quality health and wellness solutions to meet the evolving needs of consumers. As one of the originators of the over-the-counter ("OTC") self-care market, Perrigo is led by its vision "To Provide The Best Self-Care For Everyone" and its purpose to "Make Lives Better Through Trusted Health and Wellness Solutions, Accessible To All".

Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include our accounts and accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Our fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. We end our quarterly accounting periods on the Saturday closest to the end of the calendar quarter, with the fourth quarter ending on December 31 of each year.

We have arrangements with certain companies that we determined to be variable interest entities ("VIEs"). We did not consolidate the VIEs in our financial statements as we lack the power to direct activities that most significantly impact their economic performance and thus are not considered the primary beneficiaries of these entities.

Segment Reporting

Our reporting and operating segments are as follows:

•Consumer Self-Care Americas ("CSCA") comprises our consumer self-care business in the U.S. and Canada.

•Consumer Self-Care International ("CSCI") comprises our consumer self-care business outside of the U.S. and Canada, primarily in Europe and Australia.

We previously had an Rx segment which was comprised of our generic prescription pharmaceuticals business in the U.S., and other pharmaceuticals and diagnostic business in Israel, which have been divested. Following the divestiture, there were no substantial assets or operations left in this segment. The Rx segment was reported as Discontinued Operations in 2021, and is presented as such for all periods in this report (refer to Note 4).

Our segments reflect the way in which our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is our CEO, makes operating decisions, allocates resources and manages the growth and profitability of the Company, and are each led by an Executive Vice President. Financial information related to our business segments and geographic locations can be found in Note 2 and Note 20.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which affect the reported earnings, financial position and various disclosures. These estimates are based on judgment and available information. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

We translate our non-U.S. dollar-denominated operations’ assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars at current rates of exchange as of the balance sheet date and income and expense items at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. Translation adjustments resulting from exchange rate fluctuations are recorded in the cumulative translation account, a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI"). Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are included in Other (income) expense, net.

67

Perrigo Company plc - Item 8

Note 1

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of demand deposits and other short-term investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase.

We had $7.0 million of restricted cash as of December 31, 2023 in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We entered into an agreement to extend a credit line to an existing customer in exchange for a cash security deposit. The agreement requires the cash to be held in a separate account and to be returned to the customer at the expiration of the agreement provided all credits have been paid as agreed. We had no restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2024 as the funds were returned to the customer during the fourth quarter.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Expected credit losses on trade receivables and contract assets are measured collectively by geographic location. Historical credit loss experience provides the primary basis for estimation of expected credit losses and is adjusted for current conditions and for reasonable and supportable forecasts. Receivables that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis and are not included in the collective evaluation.The following table presents the allowance for credit losses activity (in millions):

Year Ended

Balance at beginning of period $ 7.8 $ 6.8 $ 7.2

Provision for credit losses, net 1.2 1.1 3.2

Receivables written-off (1.2) (0.6) (4.0)

Recoveries collected — 0.3 —

Currency translation adjustment (0.4) 0.2 0.4

Balance at end of period $ 7.4 $ 7.8 $ 6.8

Trade receivables and contract assets are charged off against the allowance when the balance is no longer deemed collectible.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in first-out method. Inventory related to research and development ("R&D") is expensed when it is determined the materials have no alternative future use. We maintain reserves for estimated obsolete or unmarketable inventory based on the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value. Factors utilized in the determination of net realizable value include excess or slow-moving inventories, product expiration dating, products on quality hold, customer demand and market conditions.

Investments

Equity Method Investments

The equity method of accounting is used for unconsolidated entities over which we have significant influence; generally, this represents ownership interests of at least 20% and not more than 50%. Under the equity method of accounting, we record the investments at carrying value and adjust for a proportionate share of the profits and losses of these entities each period. We evaluate our equity method investments for recoverability. If we determine that a loss in the value of an investment is other than temporary, the investment is written down to its estimated fair value. Evaluations of recoverability are based primarily on projected cash flows.

Fair Value Method Investments

Equity investments in which we own less than a 20% interest and cannot exert significant influence are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in net income. For equity investments without readily determinable fair values, we may use the Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share as a practical expedient to measure the fair value, if eligible. If the NAV practical expedient cannot be applied, we may elect to use a measurement alternative until the investment’s fair value becomes readily determinable. Under the alternative method, the equity investments are accounted for at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in an orderly transaction for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer.

68

Perrigo Company plc - Item 8

Note 1

Derivative Instruments

We recognize the entire change in the fair value of the derivatives designated as:

•Cash flow hedges in Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI"). The amounts recorded in OCI are reclassified to earnings in the same line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as impacted by the hedged item when the hedged item affects earnings;

•Fair value hedges in the same line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations that is used to present the earnings effect of the hedged item; and

•Net investment hedges in OCI classified as a currency translation adjustment. The amounts recorded in OCI are reclassified to earnings when the net investment in foreign operations is sold or substantially liquidated.

We exclude option premiums, forward points, and cross-currency basis spread from our assessment of hedge effectiveness, as allowable excluded components from certain of our cash flow and net investment hedges. We have elected to recognize the initial value of the excluded component on a straight-line basis over the life of the derivative instrument, within the same line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations that is used to present the earnings effect of the hedged item.

We record derivative instruments on the balance sheet on a gross basis as either an asset or liability measured at fair value (refer to Note 10). Changes in a derivative's fair value are measured at the end of each period and are recognized in earnings unless a derivative can be designated in a qualifying hedging relationship. All realized and unrealized gains and losses are included within operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Designated derivatives meet hedge accounting criteria, which means the fair value of the hedge is recorded in shareholders’ equity as a component of OCI, net of tax. The deferred gains and losses are recognized in income in the period in which the hedged item affects earnings. All of our designated derivatives are assessed for hedge effectiveness quarterly.

We also have economic non-designated derivatives that we have not elected hedge accounting. These derivative instruments are adjusted to current market value at the end of each period through earnings. Gains or losses on these instruments are offset substantially by the remeasurement adjustment on the related hedged item.

We are exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties on derivative contracts. We manage our credit risk on these transactions by dealing only with financial institutions that have short-term credit ratings of at least A-2/P-2 and long-term credit ratings of at least A-/A3, and by distributing the contracts among several financial institutions to diversify credit concentration risk. Should a counterparty default, our maximum exposure to loss is the asset balance of the instrument. The maximum term of our forward currency exchange contracts is 60 months.

We enter into certain derivative financial instruments, when available on a cost-effective basis, to mitigate our risk associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates as follows:

Interest rate risk management - We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes through our cash investments and borrowings. We utilize a variety of strategies to manage the impact of changes in interest rates including using a mix of debt maturities along with both fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. In addition, we may enter into treasury-lock agreements and interest rate swap agreements on certain investing and borrowing transactions to manage our exposure to interest rate changes and our overall cost of borrowing.

Foreign currency exchange risk management - We conduct business in several major currencies other than the U.S. dollar and are subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. Our objective is to reduce cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes on a consolidated basis to allow management to focus its attention on business operations. Accordingly, we enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of existing foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments, anticipated foreign currency sales and expenses, and net investments in foreign operations.

All derivative instruments are managed on a consolidated basis to efficiently net exposures and thus, take advantage of any natural offsets. Gains and losses related to the derivative instruments are expected to be offset largely by gains and losses on the original underlying asset or liability. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

69

Perrigo Company plc - Item 8

Note 1

The impact of gains and losses on foreign exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments related to changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are generally offset by net foreign exchange gains and losses, which are also included on the Consolidated Statements of Operations in Other (income) expense, net for all periods presented. When we enter into foreign exchange contracts not designated as hedging instruments to mitigate the impact of exchange rate volatility in the translation of foreign earnings, gains and losses will generally be offset by fluctuations in the U.S. dollar-translated amounts of each Income Statement account in current and/or future periods.

For more information on our derivatives, refer to Note 11.

Property, Plant and Equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment, net is recorded at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method. We capitalize certain computer software and development costs, included in machinery and equipment, when incurred in connection with developing or obtaining computer software for internal use. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to earnings, while expenditures that increase asset lives are capitalized.

Leases

Lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. We evaluate arrangements at inception to determine if lease components are included. For new leases beginning January 1, 2019 or later, we have elected not to separate lease components from the non-lease components included in an arrangement when measuring the leased asset and leased liability for all asset classes.

Lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We recognize lease expense for leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We apply the portfolio approach to certain groups of computer equipment and vehicle leases when the term, classification, and asset type are identical. The discount rate selected is the incremental borrowing rate we would obtain for a secured financing of the lease asset over a similar term.

Many of our leases include one or more options to extend the lease term. Certain leases also include options to terminate early or purchase the leased property, all of which are executed at our sole discretion. Optional periods may be included in the lease term and measured as part of the lease asset and lease liability if we are reasonably certain to exercise our right to use the leased asset during the optional periods. We generally consider renewal options to be reasonably certain of execution and included in the lease term when significant leasehold improvements have been made by us to the leased assets. The depreciable lives of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Certain of our lease agreements include contingent rental payments based on per unit usage over contractual levels (e.g., miles driven or machine hours used) and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for market reviews or inflationary indexes. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. For more information on our leases, refer to Note 8.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents amounts paid for an acquisition in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but rather is tested for impairment annually on the first day of our fourth quarter, or more frequently if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest an impairment exists. The test for impairment requires us to make several estimates about fair value, most of which are based on projected future cash flows and market valuation multiples. The estimates associated with the goodwill impairment tests include projected discounted future cash flows. We have two reporting units that are evaluated for impairment as of December 31, 2024.

Intangible assets are typically valued initially using the relief from royalty method or the multi-period excess earnings method ("MPEEM"). We test indefinite-lived trademarks, trade names, and brands for impairment annually, or more frequently if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of events suggest impairment exists, by comparing the carrying value of the assets to their estimated fair values. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized on either a straight-line basis or proportionately to the benefits derived from those relationships or agreements. Useful lives vary by asset type and are determined based on the period over which the intangible asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to

our future cash flows. We also review all other long-lived assets that have finite lives and that are not held for sale for impairment when indicators of impairment are evident by comparing the carrying value of the assets to their estimated future undiscounted cash flows.

In-process research and development ("IPR&D") assets are recognized at fair value and are classified as indefinite-lived assets until the successful completion or abandonment of the associated R&D efforts. If the associated R&D is completed, the IPR&D asset becomes a definite-lived intangible asset and is amortized over the asset's assigned useful life. If it is abandoned, an impairment loss is recorded.

Goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible asset, and definite-lived intangible asset impairments are recorded in Impairment charges on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 9 for further information on our goodwill and intangible assets.

Defined Benefit Plans

We operate a number of defined benefit plans for employees globally. The liability recognized in the balance sheet is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The defined benefit obligation is calculated periodically by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The present value of the defined benefit obligation is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of either high quality corporate bonds or long term government bonds depending on the depth and liquidity of the high quality corporate bond market in the different geographies where we have pension liabilities. The bonds are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related pension liability. As a result, annual updates related to discount rate and the expected rate of return on plan assets are among the most important elements of expense and liability measurement. The expected return on plan assets is determined using the fair value of plan assets.

Actuarial gains and losses are recognized on the Consolidated Statements of Operations using the corridor method. Under the corridor method, to the extent that any cumulative unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss exceeds 10% of the greater of the present value of the defined benefit obligation and the fair value of the plan assets, that portion is recognized over the expected average remaining working lives of the plan participants. Otherwise, the net actuarial gain or loss is recorded in OCI. We recognize the funded status of benefit plans on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, we recognize the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net periodic pension cost of the period as a component of OCI (refer to Note 13).

Legal Contingencies

We are involved in product liability, patent, commercial, regulatory and other legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. We record a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If the reasonable estimate of a probable loss is a range and no amount within that range is a better estimate, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. If a loss is not probable or a probable loss cannot be reasonably estimated, no liability is recorded. We have established reserves for certain legal matters (refer to Note 19). We do not incorporate insurance recoveries into our reserves for legal contingencies. We separately record receivables for amounts due under insurance policies when we consider the realization of recoveries for claims to be probable, which may be different than the timing in which we establish the loss reserves.

Revenue

Product Revenue

Revenue is recognized when or as a customer obtains control of promised products. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for these products. We generally recognize product revenue for our contract performance obligations at a point in time, typically upon shipment or delivery of products to customers. For point in time customers for which control transfers on delivery to the customer due to free on board destination terms (“FOB”), an adjustment is recorded to defer revenue recognition over an estimate of days until control transfers at the point of delivery. Where we recognize revenue at a point in time, the transfer of title is the primary indicator that control has transferred. In other limited instances, primarily relating to those contracts that relate to contract manufacturing performed for our customers, control transfers as the product is manufactured. Control is deemed to transfer over time for these contracts as the product does not have an alternative use and we have a contractual right to payment for performance completed to date. Revenue for contract manufacturing contracts is recognized over the transfer period using an input method that measures progress towards completion of the performance obligation as costs are incurred.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 22 headings are on that chain and 17 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
