Biocon Biologics Transaction

On November 29, 2022, Viatris completed a transaction to contribute its biosimilars portfolio to Biocon Biologics. Under the terms of the Biocon Agreement, Viatris received $3 billion in consideration in the form of a $2 billion cash payment, adjusted as set forth in the Biocon Agreement, and approximately $1 billion of CCPS representing a stake of approximately 12.9% (on a fully diluted basis) in Biocon Biologics. Viatris also is entitled to $335 million of additional cash payments in 2024. In addition, Viatris and Biocon Biologics have agreed to a closing working capital target of $250 million. An amount of cash equal to all or a portion of the closing working capital target may become payable to Biocon Biologics in connection with certain events in the future, depending on the valuations attributable to such events. Refer to Note 8 Balance Sheet Components for additional information on assets and liabilities related to Biocon Biologics. The Company’s CCPS in Biocon Biologics are classified as equity securities, refer to Note 11 Financial Instruments and Risk Management for further discussion.

Viatris and Biocon Biologics also entered an agreement pursuant to which Viatris is providing commercialization and certain other transition services on behalf of Biocon Biologics, including billings, collections, and the remittance of rebates, to ensure business continuity for patients, customers and colleagues. The term of the transition services agreement is generally up to two years. Under the transition services agreement, Viatris is entitled to be reimbursed for its costs (subject to certain caps) plus a markup. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized TSA income of approximately $45.7 million as a component of Other (Income) Expense, net.

Other Potential Divestitures
In November 2022, the Company provided an update on the strategic priorities announced in February 2022, including identifying the following businesses no longer considered core to its future strategy that the Company intends to divest:
OTC;
API (while retaining some selective development API capabilities);
Women’s health care, primarily related to our oral and injectable contraceptives. This does not include all of our women’s health care related products; as an example, our Xulane® product in the U.S. is excluded; and
Upjohn Distributor Markets.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, we determined that our Upjohn Distributor Markets should be classified as held for sale. Upon classification as held for sale, we recognized a total charge of $374.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2022. This was comprised of a goodwill impairment charge of $117.0 million, other charges, principally inventory write-offs, of $84.3 million and a charge of approximately $172.9 million to write down the disposal group to fair value, less cost to sell. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded additional inventory reserves of $9.2 million and an intangible asset charge of $32.0 million to write down the disposal group to fair value, less cost to sell. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, assets held for sale associated with the Upjohn Distributor Markets consisted of intangible assets of $198.3 million and $230.3 million, respectively. If these transactions are not completed, the distribution arrangements will expire in accordance with our agreement with Pfizer and the Company will wind down operations in these markets, which may result in additional asset write-offs and other costs being incurred. These additional charges could be in excess of $250 million.
