COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Previous regulatory suspension of a manufacturing facility
The Company continues to resolve claims stemming from a prior, temporary, regulatory suspension of one of our manufacturing facilities. To date, more than 30 customers of the facility have presented claims against the Company for alleged losses, including lost profits and other types of indirect or consequential damages that they have allegedly suffered due to the temporary suspension, or have reserved their right to do so subsequently. The Company is unable to estimate at this time either the total value of claims asserted, or that are reasonably possible to be asserted, with respect to this matter or the likely cost to resolve them, although (a) through June 30, 2018, the Company settled 22 customer claims and (b) certain remaining customers have presented the Company with support for other claims having an aggregate claim value of approximately $1 million. To date, none of the asserted claims takes into account limitations of liability in the contracts governing these claims or any other defense that the Company may assert. In addition, the Company may have insurance for additional costs it may incur as a result of such claims, subject to various deductibles and other limitations, but there can be no assurance as to the aggregate amount or timing of insurance recoveries against any such costs.
SEC inquiry into Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
On August 14, 2018, Operating Company acquired Juniper Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Juniper”), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) between Operating Company and Juniper. On November 14, 2016, Juniper filed with the SEC restated audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2015, including the unaudited consolidated financial information for each quarterly period within the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015, and restated unaudited consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016 and the related quarters in 2015, in order to correct certain timing errors regarding how it recognized revenue from a supply contract with an affiliate of Merck KGaA. On January 24, 2017, Juniper received a subpoena from the SEC requesting information concerning these restatements and related issues. Juniper responded to the subpoena and is cooperating with the SEC’s inquiry, including the taking of testimony from former Juniper employees and others. The Company understands that the inquiry is ongoing but does not believe the outcome of the investigation will be material to it; nonetheless, the Company cannot can provide any assurance regarding that outcome.
Other
From time to time, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, inquiries and claims concerning environmental contamination as well as litigation and allegations in connection with acquisitions, product liability, manufacturing or packaging defects, and claims for reimbursement for the cost of lost or damaged active pharmaceutical ingredients, the cost of any of which could be significant. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against any such litigation and does not currently believe that the outcome of any such litigation will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements. In addition, the healthcare industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to scrutinize certain practices affecting government programs and otherwise.
From time to time, the Company receives subpoenas or requests for information relating to the business practices and activities of customers or suppliers from various governmental agencies or private parties, including from state attorneys general, the U.S. Department of Justice, and private parties engaged in patent infringement, antitrust, tort, and other litigation. The Company generally responds to such subpoenas and requests in a timely and thorough manner, which responses sometimes require considerable time and effort and can result in considerable costs being incurred. The Company expects to incur costs in future periods in connection with future requests.
