Malware Incident and Subsequent Events
On June 27, 2017, Nuance was a victim of the global NotPetya malware incident (the “Malware Incident”). The NotPetya malware affected certain Nuance systems, including systems used by our healthcare customers primarily for transcription services as well as systems used by our imaging division to receive and process orders.
We have evaluated subsequent events from June 30, 2017 through the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements and have determined that other than the effects of the Malware Incident, no material subsequent events have occurred that would affect the information presented in these consolidated financial statements.
