ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Company Overview

Haemonetics is a global healthcare company dedicated to providing a suite of innovative medical technology solutions that improve the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of care. We challenge ourselves to think big and make new possibilities a reality, so that our customers can make it matter for patients, every single day. Our technology addresses important medical markets: blood and plasma component collection, the surgical suite and hospital transfusion services. When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Haemonetics” and the “Company” mean Haemonetics Corporation.

We view our operations and manage our business in three principal reporting segments: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. For that purpose, “Plasma” includes plasma collection devices and disposables, donor management software and supporting software solutions sold to plasma customers. “Blood Center” includes blood collection and processing devices and disposables for red cells, platelets and whole blood. “Hospital” is comprised of Interventional Technologies, which includes vascular closure devices and sensor-guided technologies, and Blood Management Technologies, which includes devices and methodologies for measuring coagulation characteristics of blood, specialized blood cell processing systems and disposables, surgical blood salvage systems and blood transfusion management software. Financial information concerning these segments is provided in Note 18, Segment and Enterprise-Wide Information, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We believe that Plasma and Hospital have growth potential, while Blood Center competes in challenging markets that require us to manage the business differently, including reducing costs, shrinking the scope of the current product line, and evaluating opportunities to exit unfavorable customer contracts.

Market and Products

Product Lines

The following describes our principal products in each of our segments. Availability of products may vary from one country or region to another as a result of specific local regulatory approval or clearance requirements. Applicable laws may restrict the sale, distribution or use of these products to, by, or on the order of a licensed healthcare practitioner.

•Plasma

Our Plasma business offers automated plasma collection systems, donor management software and supporting software solutions that improve the yield, efficiency, quality, safety and overall donor experience at plasma collection centers. We continue to invest in technology that lowers the overall cost to collect plasma while maintaining high standards of quality and safety.

Plasma Collection Market for Fractionation — Human plasma is collected for two purposes. First, it is used for transfusions in patients, such as trauma victims who need to compensate for extreme blood loss. Second, it is processed into pharmaceuticals that aid in the treatment of a broad range of immune system diseases and blood-related disorders.

Plasma for transfusion is almost exclusively collected by blood centers as part of their broader mission to supply blood components. Plasma that is fractionated and manufactured into pharmaceuticals - frequently referred to as “source plasma” - is mainly collected by vertically integrated biopharmaceutical companies that operate their own collection centers and recruit donors specifically for source plasma donation. The markets for transfusion plasma and source plasma have different participants, product requirements and growth profiles. We serve the market for plasma that is processed into pharmaceuticals through our Plasma business, and we serve the market for transfusion plasma through our Blood Center business.

One of the distinguishing features of the source plasma market is the method of collection. There are three primary ways to collect plasma. The first is to collect it from whole blood donations. When whole blood is processed, plasma can be separated at the same time as red cells and platelets and stored for future use. The second is as part of an apheresis procedure that also collects another blood component. These two methods are mainly used by blood centers to collect plasma for transfusions. The third method is a dedicated apheresis procedure that only collects plasma and

1

returns the other blood components to the donor. This third method is almost exclusively used for source plasma collection.

Our Plasma business unit focuses on the collection of source plasma for pharmaceutical manufacturers using apheresis devices that only collect plasma and software solutions that support the efficient operation of dedicated source plasma collection centers. Our Blood Center business supports the collection of plasma for blood collectors, such as the American Red Cross, using both whole blood collections sets and multi-component apheresis collection devices.

Over the last 20 years, the collection of source plasma has increasingly been performed by vertically integrated biopharmaceutical companies such as CSL Limited (together with its affiliates, “CSL”), Grifols S.A., Octapharma AG and Takeda’s BioLife Plasma subsidiary. With their global operations and management expertise, these companies are focused on efficient plasma supply chain management and leveraging information technology to manage operations from the point of plasma donation through fractionation to the production of the final pharmaceutical product.

Demand for source plasma has continued to grow because of an expanding end user market for plasma-derived biopharmaceuticals. In particular, therapies that require a significant quantity of plasma to create have fueled an increase in the number of donations and dedicated source plasma collection centers. A significant portion of this collection growth has occurred in the United States with U.S. produced plasma now meeting an increasing percentage of plasma volume demand worldwide. U.S. regulations are more favorable relative to other markets for plasma collectors. The frequency an individual may donate, the volume of plasma that may be donated each time and the ability to remunerate donors are all more favorable to efficient operations and output, leading to approximately two-thirds of worldwide source plasma collections occurring in the U.S. Plasma collectors have long sought revisions to plasma collection regulations outside of the U.S. to allow for greater frequency, volume per donation, and remuneration, but updates have been limited and no significant short-term changes are foreseen in the prevalence of U.S. collections.

Plasma Products — Our automated plasma collection devices, related disposables, software and services are designed to support multiple facets of plasma collector operations. We have a long-standing commitment to understanding our customers’ collection and manufacturing processes. As a result, we aim to design equipment that is durable, dependable, and easy to use and to provide comprehensive training and support to help our customers optimize their plasma collections.

Today, nearly all source plasma collections worldwide are performed using automated collection technology at dedicated facilities. We offer multiple products to support these dedicated source plasma operations, including our NexSys PCS® and PCS2® plasmapheresis equipment, related disposables and solutions. We also offer a portfolio of integrated information technology platforms for plasma customers to manage their donors, operations and supply chain. Our software products, including our latest NexLynk DMS® donor management system and Donor360® app, automate the donor interview and qualification process, streamline the workflow process in the plasma center, provide the controls necessary to evaluate donor suitability, determine the ability to release units collected and manage unit distribution. With our software solutions, plasma collectors can manage processes across the plasma supply chain, ensure high quality and compliance process support, react quickly to business changes and implement opportunities to reduce costs.

With our PCS brand, we have provided an automated platform dedicated to the collection of plasma for over 30 years. In fiscal 2018, we began transitioning customers from our PCS2 equipment to NexSys PCS. NexSys PCS is designed to enable higher plasma yield collections, improve productivity in our customers’ centers, enhance the overall donor experience and provide safe and reliable collections that will become life-changing medicines for patients. NexSys PCS includes bi-directional connectivity to the NexLynk DMS donor management system to improve operational efficiency within plasma centers, through automated programming of donation procedures and automated data capture of procedure data.

Our NexSys PCS with YES® Technology is a yield-enhancing solution that enables increases in plasma yield per collection by an additional 18-26 mL per donation, on average. In fiscal 2021, we received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) 510(k) clearance for our NexSys PCS with proprietary Persona® Technology. NexSys PCS with Persona Technology uses a percent plasma nomogram that customizes plasma collection based on an individual donor’s body composition, and enables a 9% to 12% average increase in plasma volume per donation, based on our PCS2 baseline device, software configuration and donor population. The new, proprietary Persona Technology strengthens the NexSys PCS value proposition and reinforces our commitment to supporting our Plasma customers. In addition, during fiscal 2024, we received FDA clearance for advancements to NexSys PCS including a new plasma

2

collection bowl and new Express Plus® technology engineered to reduce procedure time. We expect to pursue further regulatory clearances for additional enhancements to the overall product offering.

We have entered into agreements with all U.S. customers to adopt NexSys PCS somewhere in their global collection network and we provide ongoing support of NexSys PCS devices and NexLynk DMS donor management software for these Plasma customers.

Our Plasma business unit represented 43.2%, 42.5% and 35.4% of our total revenue in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

•Blood Center

Our Blood Center business offers a range of solutions that improve donor collection centers’ ability to collect and separate blood components for transfusions. We continue to look for solutions to help our customers improve donor safety, enhance yields and control costs through the existing product portfolio. Our products and technologies help donor collection centers optimize blood collection capabilities and donor processing management.

Blood Center Market — There are over 100 million blood donations around the world each year that produce blood products for transfusion to surgical, trauma or chronically ill patients. Patients typically receive only the blood components necessary to treat a particular clinical condition. Platelet therapy is frequently used to alleviate the effects of chemotherapy and to help patients with bleeding disorders. Red cells are often transfused to patients to replace blood lost during surgery and transfused to patients with blood disorders, such as sickle cell anemia or aplastic anemia. Plasma, in addition to its role in creating life-saving pharmaceuticals, is frequently transfused to replace blood volume in trauma victims and surgical patients.

When collecting blood components there are two primary collection methods, manual whole blood donations and automated component blood collections. While most donations are manual whole blood, the benefit of automated component blood collections is the ability to collect more than one unit of the targeted blood component. Manual whole blood donations are collected from the donor and then transported to a laboratory where the blood is separated into its components. Automated component blood collections separate the blood component real-time while a person is donating. In this method, only the specific target blood component is collected and the remaining components are returned to the blood donor.

While overall we expect total demand for blood to remain stable to slightly declining, demand in individual markets and for individual components can vary greatly. The development in mature markets of more minimally invasive procedures with lower associated blood loss, as well as hospitals’ improved blood management techniques and protocols have more than offset the increasing demand for blood from aging populations. Emerging markets are seeing demand growth with expanded healthcare coverage and greater access to more advanced medical treatments.

Blood Center Products — We offer automated blood component and manual whole blood collection systems to blood collection centers to collect blood products efficiently and cost effectively.

•We market the MCS® brand apheresis equipment which is designed to collect specific blood components from the donor. Utilizing the MCS automated platelet collection protocols, blood centers collect one or more therapeutic “doses” of platelets during a single donation.

•Our portfolio of disposable whole blood collection and component storage sets offer flexibility in collecting a unit of whole blood and the subsequent production and storage of blood components, including options for in-line or dockable filters for leukoreduction.

Our Blood Center business unit represented 21.1%, 24.0% and 30.1% of our total revenue in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

•Hospital

Hospitals are called upon to provide the highest standard of patient care while at the same time reduce operating costs. Haemonetics’ Hospital business has two distinct franchises, Interventional Technologies, which includes Vascular Closure and Sensor Guided Technologies, and Blood Management Technologies, which includes Hemostasis Management, Cell Salvage and Transfusion Management. The Sensor-Guided Technologies product line was acquired as part of the OpSens Inc. transaction in December 2023. Both franchises have a leading market position and a mission of helping hospitals and clinicians provide the highest standard of patient care while at the same time reducing operating and procedural costs and helping decision makers in hospitals optimize blood acquisition, storage and usage in critical settings.

Interventional Technologies:

Vascular Closure

Vascular Closure Market — Catheter-based, minimally invasive alternatives to open surgery have transformed cardiovascular medicine. The majority of these procedures gain access to the vascular system through the femoral artery or vein. These access sites in the vessel require closure post procedure. Even with the major advances in technology over the last 40 years, the most common complications in coronary and peripheral procedures are still related to the access site. Manual compression, the traditional standard of care, involves the application of pressure in order to facilitate the formation of a blood clot at the access site. Vascular closure devices improve upon manual compression by rapidly closing the access site and facilitating more efficient workflow for both the coronary and peripheral markets but also the rapidly growing structural heart and electrophysiology markets.

Vascular Closure Products — The VASCADE® technology platform was developed to address the limitations of manual compression and existing vascular closure devices. Our VASCADE family of products consists of two devices, VASCADE and VASCADE MVP®, which share a common, innovative technology that features a simple, catheter-based delivery system and leverages the natural clot-inducing properties of collagen. This novel design significantly reduces access site complications, increases patient satisfaction and improves hospital workflow metrics that, in turn, drive economic benefits and cost savings. Our Vascular Closure devices address the growing number of catheter-based coronary, structural heart, peripheral and electrophysiology procedures that require vascular access site closure each year.

Designed around an easy to use, catheter-based delivery system and the natural clot-inducing properties of collagen, our VASCADE product is the only marketed vascular closure device clinically proven to both increase workflow efficiency and reduce access site complications relative to manual compression for coronary and peripheral procedures. Similarly, our VASCADE MVP device is the first marketed vascular closure device clinically proven in a prospective, multi-center, randomized clinical trial, to improve workflow relative to manual compression for electrophysiology procedures. Importantly, these improvements drive meaningful cost savings for hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers and other treatment facilities. VASCADE MVP is the first vascular closure device to receive a FDA indication for same-day discharge following atrial fibrillation ablation.

Sensor Guided Technologies Market — Coronary guidewires facilitate the delivery and positioning of interventional devices through the catheters. These guidewires are thin and flexible, allowing surgeons to navigate coronary arteries and can also assist in the diagnosis of certain heart conditions.

Sensor Guided Technologies Products — The OptoWire® is a pressure guidewire that aims to improve clinical outcomes by accurately and consistently measuring Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) to aid clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with coronary artery disease. The OptoWire utilizes Fidela™, a patented 2nd generation fiber optic sensor, which is designed to provide the lowest drift in the industry with consistent and repeatable measurements.

The SavvyWire®, which was recently introduced to the medical device market in 2022, is a sensor-guided 3-in-1 guidewire for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures, advancing the workflow of the procedure and enabling potentially shorter hospital stays for patients. Prior to the SavvyWire, innovations in TAVR were generally centered on valves and deliver systems, whereas the SavvyWire is a wire-based solution that serves as a guide-wire, delivers accurate hemodynamic measurement and display, and is designed for efficient left ventricular (LV) pacing without the need for adjunct devices or venous access.

Blood Management Technologies:

Hemostasis Management

Hemostasis Management Market — Hemostasis refers to a patient’s ability to form and maintain blood clots. The clinical management of hemostasis requires that physicians have the most complete information to make decisions on how to best maintain a patient’s coagulation equilibrium between hemorrhage (bleeding) and thrombosis (clotting). Hemostasis is a critical challenge in various medical procedures, including cardiovascular surgery, organ transplantation, trauma, post-partum hemorrhage and percutaneous coronary intervention. By understanding a patient’s hemostasis status, clinicians can better plan for the patient’s care pathway. For example, they may decide whether to start or discontinue the use of certain drugs or determine the need for a transfusion and which specific blood components would be most effective in minimizing blood loss and reducing clotting risk. Such planning supports better care, which can lead to lower hospital costs through a reduction in unnecessary blood product transfusions, reduced adverse transfusion reactions and shorter intensive care unit and hospital stays.

Hemostasis Management Products — Our portfolio of hemostasis diagnostic systems enables clinicians to assess holistically the coagulation status of a patient at the point-of-care or laboratory setting. We have four viscoelastic testing systems that we market to hospitals and laboratories as an alternative to routine blood tests: the TEG® 5000 hemostasis analyzer system, the TEG 6s hemostasis analyzer system, the HAS-100 hemostasis analyzer system and the HAS-300 hemostasis analyzer system. The TEG and HAS platforms utilize thromboelastography, providing a method of testing the efficiency of blood coagulation using whole blood samples.

Each hemostasis diagnostic system consists of an analyzer that is used with single-use reagents and disposables. In addition, TEG Manager® software connects multiple TEG 5000 and TEG 6S analyzers throughout the hospital, providing clinicians with remote access to both active and historical test results that inform treatment decisions.

The TEG 5000 system is approved for a broad set of indications in all of our markets. The TEG 6s system is approved for the same set of indications as the TEG 5000 in Europe, Australia and Japan. We continue to pursue a broader set of indications for TEG 6s in the U.S. In fiscal 2024, we received FDA clearance for a new TEG 6s Global Hemostasis-HN assay cartridge. This new cartridge extends Haemonetics' TEG 6s viscoelastic testing capabilities to serve fully heparinized patients in adult cardiovascular surgeries/procedures and liver transplantation in both laboratory and point-of-care settings. The HAS-100 and HAS-300 devices are currently commercialized in China.

Cell Salvage

Cell Salvage Market — The Cell Salvage market is mainly comprised of devices designed to collect, wash and prepare a patient’s own blood for reinfusion during or after surgery. Loss of blood is common in many surgical procedures, including open heart, trauma, transplant, vascular and orthopedic procedures, and the need for transfusion of oxygen-carrying red cells to make up for lost blood volume is routine. Patients commonly receive donor (or allogeneic) blood which carries various risks for transfusion reactions including chills, fevers or other side effects that can prolong a patient’s recovery.

An alternative to allogeneic blood is surgical cell salvage, also known as autotransfusion, which reduces or eliminates a patient’s need for blood donated from others and ensures that the patient receives the freshest and safest blood possible - his or her own. Surgical cell salvage involves the collection of a patient’s own blood during or after surgery with the intent of reinfusion of red cells to that patient. Blood is suctioned from the surgical site or collected from a wound or chest drain, processed and washed through a centrifuge-based system that yields concentrated red cells, available in a reinfusion bag, for transfusion back to the patient at the physician’s discretion. This process occurs in a sterile, closed-circuit, single-use consumable set that is fitted into an electromechanical device. We market our surgical blood salvage products to surgical specialists, primarily cardiovascular, orthopedic and trauma surgeons, OB-GYN and to anesthesiologists and surgical suite service providers.

Cell Salvage Products — Our Cell Saver® Elite®+ autologous blood recovery system is a surgical blood salvage system targeted to medium to high blood loss procedures, such as cardiovascular, orthopedic, trauma, transplant, vascular, obstetrical and gynecological surgeries. The Cell Saver Elite + is designed to minimize allogeneic blood use and reliably recover and prepare a patient’s own high-quality blood for reinfusion.

Transfusion Management

Transfusion Management Market — Hospital transfusion services professionals and clinicians are facing cost restraints in addition to the pressure to enhance patient safety, compliance and operational efficiency. Managing the safety and traceability of the blood supply chain and comprehensive management of patients, orders, specimens, blood products, derivatives and accessories across the hospital network is challenging. In addition, providing clinicians with the vital access to blood when needed most while maintaining traceability is a key priority. Frequently when blood products leave the blood bank, the transfusion management staff loses control and visibility of the blood components. They often do not know if the blood was handled, stored or transfused properly, which may lead to negative effects on patient safety, product quality, inventory availability and staff efficiency as well as increased waste.

Transfusion Management Products — Our Transfusion Management solutions are designed to help provide safety, traceability and compliance from the hospital blood bank to the patient bedside and enable consistent care across the hospital network. Our SafeTrace Tx® transfusion management software is considered the system of record for all hospital blood bank and transfusion service information. BloodTrack® blood management software is a modular suite of blood management and bedside transfusion solutions that combines software with hardware components and acts as an extension of the hospital’s blood bank information system. The software is designed to work with blood storage devices, including the BloodTrack HaemoBank®.

Our Hospital business unit represented 34.0%, 31.8% and 32.5% of our total revenue in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The Company also has revenue associated with certain services, maintenance and parts, representing approximately 1.7%, 1.7% and 2.0% of our total revenue in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Marketing/Sales/Distribution

We market and sell our products in approximately 90 countries through our own direct sales force (including full-time sales representatives and clinical specialists) as well as independent distributors. Our customers include biopharmaceutical companies, blood collection groups and independent blood centers, hospitals and hospital service providers, group purchasing organizations and national health organizations. Sales representatives target the primary decision-makers within each of those organizations.

Research and Development

Our research and development centers in North America ensure that protocol variations are incorporated to closely match local customer requirements. In addition, Haemonetics maintains software development operations in Canada. Customer collaborations are also an important part of our technical strength and competitive advantage. These collaborations with customers and transfusion experts provide us with ideas for new products and applications, enhanced protocols and potential test sites as well as objective evaluations and expert opinions regarding technical and performance issues.

The development of blood component separation products, hemostasis analyzers and software has required us to maintain technical expertise in various engineering disciplines, including mechanical, electrical, software, biomedical engineering and chemistry. Innovations resulting from these various engineering efforts enable us to develop systems that are faster, smaller and more user-friendly, or that incorporate additional features important to our customer base.

In fiscal 2024, research and development resources were allocated to support innovation across our product portfolio. During fiscal 2024, we received FDA clearance for advancements to NexSys PCS including a new plasma collection bowl and new Express Plus® technology engineered to reduce procedure time. We also received FDA clearance for a new TEG 6s Global Hemostasis-HN assay cartridge in fiscal 2024, which extends the system’s viscoelastic testing capabilities to serve fully heparinized patients in adult cardiovascular surgeries/procedures and liver transplantation in both laboratory and point-of-care settings. Additionally, we have continued to make investments related to our next generation plasma collection and software systems, the European Medical Device Regulation and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation and our Hemostasis Management product line.

Manufacturing

We endeavor to supply products that are both high quality and cost competitive for our customers by leveraging continuous improvement methodologies, focusing on our core competencies and partnering with strategic suppliers that complement our capabilities. In general, we design our equipment and consumables and use contract manufacturers to build the devices, while the majority of consumables are manufactured by us.

Our production activities occur in controlled settings or “clean room” environments and have built-in quality checks throughout the manufacturing processes. Our manufacturing teams are focused on continuously improving our productivity, product cost and product quality through change control procedures, validations and strong supplier management programs. We regularly review our logistics capabilities, inventory and safety stock levels and maintain business continuity plans to address supply disruptions that may occur.

Our primary consumable manufacturing operations are located in North America and Malaysia. Contract manufacturers also supply component sets and liquid solutions according to our specifications, with component sets manufactured in Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines and liquid solutions manufactured in Europe. Our capital equipment is principally manufactured in Malaysia, Australia and the U.S.

We have experienced increased levels of unpredictability in the supply of certain raw materials and components used in the manufacturing of our products. While we continue to believe we will have access to the raw materials and components that we need, these supply chain dynamics could result in increased costs to us or an inability to fully meet customer demand for certain of our products.

Intellectual Property

We consider our intellectual property rights to be important to our business. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, as well as provisions in our agreements with third parties, to protect our intellectual property rights.

We hold numerous patents in North America and have applied for numerous additional U.S. patents relating to our products and related technologies. We also own or have applied for corresponding patents in selected foreign countries. These patents cover certain elements of our products and processes, including protocols employed in our equipment and aspects of certain of our disposables. Our patents may cover current products, products in markets we plan to enter, or products in markets we plan to license to others. Certain patents may also be defensive in that they are directed to technologies not currently embodied in our current products. We also may license patent rights from third parties that cover technologies that we use or plan to use in our business.

We own various trademarks that have been registered in the United States and certain other countries.

Our policy is to obtain patent and trademark rights in the U.S. and foreign countries where such rights are available and we believe it is commercially advantageous to do so. However, the standards for international protection of intellectual property vary widely. We cannot assure that pending patent and trademark applications will result in issued patents and registered trademarks, that patents issued to or licensed by us will not be challenged or circumvented by competitors, or that our patents will not be determined invalid.

To maintain our competitive position, we also rely on the technical expertise and know-how of our personnel. We believe that unpatented know-how and trade secrets relied upon in connection with our business and products are generally as important as patent protection in establishing and maintaining a competitive advantage.

We are engaged in intellectual property litigation as described in Note 15, Commitments & Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and we may be notified in the future of claims that we may be infringing, misappropriating or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of third parties. In connection with any such claims, we may seek to enter into settlement and/or licensing arrangements. There is a risk in these situations that no license will be available or that a license will not be available on reasonable terms. Alternatively, we may decide or be required to litigate such claims. A successful claims against us may require us to remove the alleged infringing product from the market or to design around the third party’s patent, potentially resulting in less market demand for the product.

7

Competition

To remain competitive, we must continue to develop and acquire new cost-effective products, information technology platforms and business services. We believe that our ability to maintain a competitive advantage will continue to depend on a combination of factors. Some factors are largely within our control such as: (i) maintenance of a positive reputation among our customers, (ii) development of new products that meet our customer’s needs, (iii) obtaining regulatory approvals for our products in key markets, (iv) obtaining patents that protect our innovations, (v) development and protection of proprietary know-how in important technological areas, (vi) product quality, safety and cost effectiveness and (vii) continual and rigorous documentation of clinical performance. Other factors are outside of our control. We could see changes in regulatory standards or clinical practice that favor a competitor’s technology or reduce revenues in key areas of our business.

Our technical staff is highly skilled, but certain competitors have substantially greater financial resources and larger technical staff at their disposal. There can be no assurance that competitors will not direct substantial efforts and resources toward the development and marketing of products competitive with those of Haemonetics.

In addition, we face competition from several large, global companies with product offerings similar to ours. Terumo Blood and Cell Technologies (“Terumo BCT”) and Fresenius SE & Co. KGaA, in particular, have significant financial and other resources and are strong competitors in a number of our businesses. The following provides an overview of the key competitors in each of our three global product enterprises.

In the automated plasma collection market, we principally compete with Fresenius’ Fenwal Aurora and Aurora Xi device product lines and Terumo BCT’s Rika device on the basis of procedure and enabled door-to-door time duration, plasma yield per donation, product quality and reliability, ease of use, services and technical features of the collection systems, supply chain reliability and on the long-term cost-effectiveness of equipment and disposables. In China, the market is populated by local producers, including Nigale and Haier Medical, which offer plasmapheresis device products that are intended to be similar to ours. In recent years, Nigale has expanded to markets beyond China, competing in European and South American countries. Scinomed competes in select European countries as well. In the field of plasma related software, we principally compete with applications developed internally by certain of our customers.

•Blood Center

Most donations worldwide are traditional manual whole blood collections and approximately 25% of the Blood Center portfolio competes in this space. We face intense competition in our whole blood business on the basis of quality and price. Our main competitors are Fresenius, MacoPharma and Terumo BCT.

Our MCS automated component blood collections, which represents approximately 60% of the Blood Center portfolio, not only compete against the traditional manual whole blood collection market (particularly in red cells) but also compete with products from Terumo BCT and Fresenius. Technology is the key differentiator in automated component blood collections, with speed, as measured by the time to collect more than one unit of a specific targeted blood component, quality, reliability, ease of use, service and other technical features being key factors. In markets with a significant number of people eligible to donate more than one unit in a single donation, the processing speed can be a significant competitive differentiator. This is particularly relevant in platelet donations and can drive market share shifts in certain markets.

•Hospital

Interventional Technologies:

Vascular Closure

The vascular closure industry is highly competitive and has been evolving rapidly with the introduction of new products, technologies, regulations and activities of industry participants. Our VASCADE family of products serves as an alternative to existing methods of femoral vascular access site closure in interventional procedures, including manual compression and other femoral access closure devices. Our main competitors in femoral access closure for coronary and peripheral procedures include Terumo BCT, Abbott Laboratories and Cardinal Health.

We compete primarily on the basis that our products are optimized for the requirements of coronary, structural heart, peripheral and electrophysiology procedures, including procedures that require multiple access sites. In addition, our

8

value proposition is supported by robust clinical trial evidence and study data, which demonstrate reduced access site complication rates as well as workflow improvements compared to manual compression that lead to cost savings.

Sensor Guided Technologies

The landscape of sensor-guided technologies is competitive, especially within the mature coronary physiology market. Our OptoWire and SavvyWire products stand out as leading offerings in their respective segments, providing real-time feedback and precise guidance during coronary physiology and structural heart procedures. Competitors such as Abbott Laboratories, Boston Scientific, and Philips pose challenges and opportunities in the coronary physiology segment, each offering their own technologies and solutions. There are not currently competing, commercially available TAVR guidewires that deliver hemodynamic measurement and on-label LV pacing for TAVR procedures.

We differentiate by continually investing in research and development to enhance the features and performance of our products. Furthermore, our commitment to clinical validation, supported by evidence, reinforces the performance and clinical benefits of our sensor-guided technology portfolio. Through these efforts, we aim to bolster our position as a leader in sensor-guided technologies, delivering exceptional value to healthcare providers and patients alike.

Blood Management Technologies:

Hemostasis Management

Our hemostasis analyzer systems are used primarily in surgical applications. Competition includes routine coagulation tests, such as prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time and platelet count marketed by various manufacturers, such as Werfen, Diagnostica Stago SAS and Sysmex. The TEG® analyzer competes with these routine laboratory tests based on its ability to provide a more complete picture of a patient’s hemostasis at a single point in time and to measure the clinically relevant platelet function for an individual patient.

In addition, TEG competes more directly with other viscoelastic testing systems, including ROTEM® analyzers, the VerifyNow™ System and HemoSonics Quantra®. ROTEM and VerifyNow instruments are marketed by Werfen. HemoSonics is owned and offered by Diagnostica Stago. There are also additional technologies being explored to assess viscoelasticity and other characteristics that can provide insights into the coagulation status of a patient. In the advanced viscoelastic testing segment, Haemonetics is the global market leader.

Cell Salvage

In the intraoperative autotransfusion market, competition is based on reliability, ease of use, service, support and price. For high-volume platforms, each manufacturer's technology is similar and our Cell Saver® technology competes principally with products offered by LivaNova PLC, Medtronic and Fresenius.

Transfusion Management

SafeTrace Tx® and BloodTrack® compete in the transfusion management software market within the broader category of hospital information systems. SafeTrace Tx is an FDA regulated blood bank information system (“BBIS”) that integrates and communicates with other healthcare information systems such as the electronic health record and laboratory information system within the hospital. The BloodTrack software, also FDA regulated, is an extension of the BBIS and provides secure, traceable blood units at the point-of-care, including trauma, surgery, outpatient and critical care settings. Growth drivers for these markets include patient safety, operational efficiencies and compliance.

SafeTrace Tx competition primarily consists of stand-alone BBIS including WellSky and some electronic health record software that includes a built-in transfusion management solution including Cerner. Global competition for BloodTrack varies by country including MSoft in Europe and established blood practices in the U.S. such as using standard refrigerators and manual movement of blood products. BloodTrack integrates with the hospital’s existing lab or blood bank system allowing for greater market acceptance.

9

Significant Customers

In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 48%, 48% and 45% of our net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2024, one Plasma customer, CSL, was greater than 10% of total net revenues and accounted for approximately 13% of net revenues. In addition to CSL, two customers also accounted for greater than 10% of the Plasma segment’s net revenues and two customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Blood Center segment's net revenues, but did not exceed 10% of total net revenues, in fiscal 2024.

Government Regulation

Due to the variety of products that we manufacture, we and our products are subject to a wide range of regulations from numerous government agencies, including the FDA, and similar agencies outside the U.S. To varying degrees, each of these agencies requires us to comply with laws and regulations governing the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, marketing and distribution of our products.

In the United States, medical devices, drugs and biological products are subject to extensive regulation by FDA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, and other federal and state statutes and regulations. The failure to comply with applicable U.S. requirements may subject a company to a variety of administrative or judicial sanctions, such as FDA refusal to clear or approve applications, warning or untitled letters, product recalls, product seizures, total or partial suspension of production or distribution, injunctions, fines, civil penalties and criminal prosecution.

Medical Device Regulation

Premarket Requirements - U.S.

Unless an exemption applies, all medical devices introduced to the U.S. market are required by the FDA, as a condition of marketing, to secure clearance of a 510(k) premarket notification, grant of a request for de novo classification, or approval of a premarket approval application, or PMA. The FDA classifies medical devices into one of three classes based on risk. Devices deemed to pose a low or moderate risk are placed in Class I or II. Manufacturers of most Class II devices, and a few Class I devices, must submit to the FDA a 510(k) premarket notification requesting clearance for commercial distribution. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk or devices deemed not substantially equivalent to a previously cleared 510(k) device are placed in Class III, requiring submission and approval of a PMA or risk-based classification through the de novo process.

To obtain 510(k) clearance, we must submit a premarket notification demonstrating that the proposed device is “substantially equivalent” to a previously 510(k)-cleared device or a device that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976 for which the FDA has not yet called for the submission of PMAs, or a device that has been the subject of a de novo classification. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance pathway usually takes from three to 12 months from the date the notification is submitted, but it can take longer, depending on the extent of the FDA’s requests for additional information and the amount of time a sponsor takes to fulfill them. We may need to first obtain an investigational device exemption (for significant risk devices), known as an IDE, in order to conduct extensive clinical testing of the device to obtain the necessary clinical data for submission to the FDA. After a device receives 510(k) clearance, any modification that could significantly affect its safety or effectiveness, or that would constitute a major change in its intended use, will require a new 510(k) clearance or could require premarket approval.

A device that cannot demonstrate substantial equivalence to a previously marketed predicate is automatically deemed Class III. The de novo process provides a pathway to classify novel medical devices for which general controls alone, or general and special controls, provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness for the intended use, but for which there is no legally marketed predicate device. Once a request for de novo classification is granted by the FDA, the newly classified device may be used as a predicate by the applicant or a competitor in a future 510(k) notification submission, if the FDA determines that new devices of the same type require 510(k) clearance.

Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risk are placed in Class III. A PMA is required for most Class III devices. The PMA process is more detailed, lengthier and more expensive than the 510(k) and de novo processes. Our VASCADE and VASCADE MVP products are Class III products for which PMAs were previously obtained. The 510(k) clearance, de novo classification, and PMA processes can be resource intensive, expensive, lengthy and require payment of significant user fees.

Postmarket Requirements - U.S.

After the FDA permits a device to enter commercial distribution, numerous regulatory requirements continue to apply. Generally, establishments that design and/or manufacture devices are required to register with the FDA. They also must provide the FDA with a list of the devices that they design and/or manufacture at their facilities. Other postmarket requirements include compliance with:

•The Quality System Regulation, or QSR, which sets forth current good manufacturing practice, or cGMP, requirements for medical devices. The QSR applies to manufacturers, including contract manufacturers, of finished medical devices, and governs methods, facilities, and controls used in designing, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, storing, installing and servicing such devices. Manufacturers of medical devices must establish a quality system appropriate for the devices they manufacture. For example, devices containing certain types of software must implement comprehensive cybersecurity risk management programs and documentation consistent with the QSR;

•Labeling regulations, including unique device identification;

•Medical device reporting, or MDR, regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA if their device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur; and

•Medical device correction and removal (recall) regulations with their associated reporting obligations.

Additionally, we and the manufacturing facilities of some of our suppliers are subject to unannounced inspections by the FDA to determine our compliance with the QSR and other applicable regulations described above. If a company fails to comply with regulatory requirements, the FDA can issue Form 483 Notices of Observation, warning letters or untitled letters, recommend or require product recalls, issue safety communications, seek a court order detaining or seizing certain devices, seek an injunction, suspend or withdraw regulatory clearance or approvals, ban certain medical devices, order repair, replacement or refund of medical devices or require notification of health professionals and others with regard to medical devices that present risks of substantial harm to the public health. The FDA may also initiate action for criminal prosecution of violations.

The FDA also may require post market testing, surveillance, or other measures to monitor the effects of an approved or cleared product. The FDA may place conditions on a PMA-approved device that could restrict the distribution or use of the product. In addition, manufacturers are subject to periodic inspections by the FDA. Accordingly, manufacturers must continue to expend time, money, and effort in the areas of production and quality control to maintain compliance with QSRs.

Advertising, marketing and promotional activities for devices are also subject to FDA oversight. The failure to comply with the requirements applicable to these activities can result in FDA enforcement action.

Manufacturers of medical devices are permitted to promote products solely for the uses and indications set forth in the approved or cleared product labeling. Promotion of products for uses not described in the approved or cleared labeling (“off-label” uses) has resulted in enforcement actions against manufacturers, including actions alleging violation of the Federal False Claims Act, federal and state healthcare fraud and abuse laws, and state consumer protection laws. The failure to comply with prohibitions on “off-label” promotion can result in significant monetary penalties, suspension of sales of certain products, product recalls, civil or criminal sanctions, exclusion from participating in federal healthcare programs, or other administrative and enforcement actions. In the United States, allegations of such wrongful conduct could also result in a corporate integrity agreement with the U.S. government that imposes significant administrative obligations and costs.

Requirements Outside the U.S.

The regulatory review process varies from country to country and may in some cases require the submission of clinical data. Our international sales are subject to regulatory requirements in the countries in which our products are sold. For example, the EU has adopted the EU Medical Device Regulation (the “EU MDR”) and the EU In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (the “EU IVDR”), each of which impose stricter requirements for the marketing and sale of medical devices, including in the area of clinical evaluation requirements, quality systems and postmarket surveillance, than the medical device directives they replace. The EU MDR became fully applicable as of May 26, 2021 and the EU IVDR became fully applicable as of May 26, 2022.

11

There is a conditional transition period after the date of full application, the duration of which is dependent on the classification of the device. A new EU certificate under the applicable regulations must be obtained prior to the end of the transition period if there is to be no interruption in manufacturing and supply of devices to the market. There are nevertheless a number of provisions that need to be complied with from the date of application, including updating the postmarket surveillance process, appointing an importer for the EU, appointing a person responsible for regulatory compliance, and updating economic operator agreements. Complying with the requirements of these regulations has and will continue to require us to incur significant expenditures. Failure to meet these requirements could adversely impact our business in the EU and other regions that tie their product registrations to the EU requirements. Similarly, the separation of states from participation in the EU, such as through the cessation of the UK’s membership in the EU (commonly known as “Brexit”) and the separation of the Swiss and EU medical product markets with the adoption of the EU MDR (commonly referred to as “Swexit”), may result in further regulatory risk and complexity as the former EU member or participant state establishes separate laws and regulations governing medical products. Regulatory requirements in other jurisdictions also continue to become more stringent, increasing regulatory requirements to register and maintain products in these markets.

Drug Regulation

Development and Approval

Under the FDCA, FDA approval of a new drug application, or NDA, is generally required before any new drug can be marketed in the U.S. NDAs require extensive studies and submission of a large amount of data by the applicant.

A generic version of an approved drug is approved by means of an abbreviated new drug application, or ANDA, by which the sponsor demonstrates that the proposed product is the same as the approved, brand-name drug, which is referred to as the “reference listed drug,” or RLD. Generally, an ANDA must contain data and information showing that the proposed generic product and RLD have the same active ingredient, in the same strength and dosage form, to be delivered via the same route of administration, are intended for the same uses and are bioequivalent. This more limited data set is in lieu of independently demonstrating the proposed product’s safety and effectiveness, which are inferred from the fact that the product is the same as the RLD, which the FDA previously found to be safe and effective.

We currently hold NDAs and ANDAs for liquid solutions (including anticoagulants, intravenous saline and a red blood cell storage solution), which we sell with our blood component and whole blood collection systems.

Post-Approval Regulations

After the FDA permits a drug to enter commercial distribution, numerous regulatory requirements continue to apply. These include the FDA's current cGMPs, which include a series of requirements relating to organization and training of personnel, buildings and facilities, equipment, control of components and drug product containers and closures, production and process controls, quality control and quality assurance, packaging and labeling controls, holding and distribution, and laboratory controls and records and reports. The FDA has also established labeling regulations, advertising and promotion requirements and restrictions, regulations regarding conducting recalls of product and requirements relating to the reporting of adverse events.

Failure to comply with applicable FDA requirements and restrictions in this area may subject a company to adverse publicity, such as warning letters, and enforcement action by the FDA, the Department of Justice, or the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services, as well as state authorities. This could subject a company to a range of penalties that could have a significant commercial impact, including civil and criminal fines and entering into agreements with the government that materially restrict the manner in which a company promotes or distributes drug or biological products.

Requirements Outside the U.S.

We must obtain the requisite marketing authorizations from regulatory authorities in foreign countries prior to marketing of a product in those countries. The requirements and process governing product licensing vary from country to country. If we fail to comply with applicable foreign regulatory requirements, we may be subject to, among other things, warning letters or untitled letters, injunctions, civil, administrative, or criminal penalties, monetary fines or imprisonment, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals, suspension of ongoing clinical studies, refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to applications filed by us, suspension or the imposition of restrictions on operations, product recalls, the refusal to permit the import or export of our products or the seizure or detention of products.

12

Conflict Minerals

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act imposes disclosure requirements regarding the use of “Conflict Minerals” mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries in products, whether or not these products are manufactured by third parties. The conflict minerals include tin, tantalum, tungsten and gold and their derivatives. These requirements could affect the pricing, sourcing and availability of minerals used in the manufacture of our products. There may be material additional costs associated with complying with the disclosure requirements, such as costs related to determining the source of any conflict minerals used in our products. Our supply chain is complex and we may be unable to verify the origins for all metals used in our products as well as costs of possible changes to products processes, or sources of supply as a consequence of such verification activities.

Fraud and Abuse Laws

We are subject to fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations that constrain the business or financial arrangements and relationships through which we market, sell and distribute our products. In addition, we are subject to transparency laws and patient privacy regulation by U.S. federal and state governments and by governments in foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct our business. We have described below some of the key federal, state and foreign healthcare laws and regulations that apply to our business.

The federal healthcare program Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or receiving remuneration, directly or indirectly, in cash or in kind, to induce or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for or recommending the purchase, lease or order of any healthcare item or service reimbursable, in whole or in part, under Medicare, Medicaid or other federally financed healthcare programs. This statute has been interpreted to apply to arrangements between manufacturers of federally reimbursed products on one hand and prescribers, purchasers and others in a position to recommend, refer, or order federally reimbursed products on the other. Although there are a number of statutory exemptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting certain common activities from prosecution, the exemptions and safe harbors are drawn narrowly and practices that involve remuneration to those who prescribe, purchase, or recommend medical devices or pharmaceutical and biological products, including certain discounts, or engaging consultants as speakers or consultants, may be subject to scrutiny if they do not fit squarely within the exemption or safe harbor. Our practices may not in all cases meet all of the criteria for safe harbor protection from anti-kickback liability. Moreover, there are no safe harbors for many common practices, such as educational and research grants. Liability may be established without a person or entity having actual knowledge of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or specific intent to violate it. In addition, the government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the civil False Claims Act.

The federal civil False Claims Act prohibits, among other things, any person from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a false, fraudulent or materially incomplete claim for payment of government funds, or knowingly making, using, or causing to be made or used, a false record or statement material to an obligation to pay money to the government or knowingly concealing or knowingly and improperly avoiding, decreasing, or concealing an obligation to pay money to the federal government. In recent years, companies in the healthcare industry have faced enforcement actions under the federal False Claims Act for, among other things, allegedly providing free product to customers with the expectation that the customers would bill federal programs for the product or causing false claims to be submitted because of the company’s marketing the product for unapproved and thus non-reimbursable, uses. False Claims Act liability is potentially significant in the healthcare industry because the statute provides for treble damages and mandatory penalties of tens of thousands of dollars per false claim or statement. Healthcare companies also are subject to other federal false claims laws, including, among others, federal criminal healthcare fraud and false statement statutes that extend to non-government health benefit programs.

The federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, or HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, among other things, imposes criminal and civil liability for knowingly and willfully executing a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private third party payers and knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services.

In addition, the Physician Payment Sunshine Act, implemented as the Open Payments program, requires manufacturers of certain products reimbursed by Medicare, Medicaid, or the Children’s Health Insurance Program to track and report information to the federal government on certain payments or transfers of value that they make to physicians (defined to include doctors, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and chiropractors), physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, certified registered nurse anesthetists, anesthesiologist assistants, certified nurse midwives and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership

13

and investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members. Manufacturers are also required to collect information regarding payments and other transfers of value to physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, anesthesiologist assistants, certified registered nurse anesthetists and certified nurse-midwives for reporting. The reported data is made available in searchable form on a public website on an annual basis. Failure to submit required information may result in civil monetary penalties.

Many states have adopted analogous laws and regulations, including state anti-kickback and false claims laws, which may apply to items or services reimbursed under Medicaid and other state programs or, in several states, regardless of the payer. Several states have enacted legislation requiring pharmaceutical and medical device companies to, among other things, establish marketing compliance programs; file periodic reports with the state, including reports on gifts and payments to individual health care providers; make periodic public disclosures on sales, marketing, pricing, clinical trials and other activities; and/or register their sales representatives. Some states prohibit specified sales and marketing practices, including the provision of gifts, meals, or other items to certain health care providers and/or offering co-pay support to patients for certain prescription drugs.

Other countries, including a number of EU Member States, have laws of similar application.

Environmental Matters

Failure to comply with international, federal and local environmental protection laws or regulations could have an adverse impact on our business or could require material capital expenditures. We continue to monitor changes in U.S. and international environmental regulations and emerging industry expectations that may present a significant risk to the business, including laws or regulations relating to the manufacture or sale of products using plastics and evolving customer expectations with respect to environmental stewardship.

Human Capital

We are committed to building a collaborative, performance-driven culture that attracts and retains top talent. As of March 30, 2024, we employed the full-time equivalent of 3,657 persons. Approximately 82% of our employees are located in North America and the remaining 18% are located across 19 other countries.

In our industry, there is substantial competition for key personnel in the regions in which we operate. Recruiting, developing, engaging and retaining talented employees is critical to both our strategy and our ability to compete effectively in the markets we serve. Our human capital strategy focuses on a complementary set of initiatives designed to support our corporate strategy and secure top talent, including the following:

•We dedicate meaningful time and resources to employee development, training and succession planning. Pursuant to our Principles of Corporate Governance, our Board of Directors plans for succession to the position of Chief Executive Officer as well as other senior leadership positions and reviews potential successors to these roles at least annually. We maintain a robust performance management review process for our permanent employees below the senior leadership level to help develop talent and ensure alignment of performance goals at every level of the organization throughout the fiscal year. Additionally, we offer a variety of programs and resources designed to facilitate our employees’ career development, training and networking, including:

◦Individual development planning by employees, in consultation with their managers, to help define individual development goals and facilitate manager coaching and feedback;

◦Manager development sessions focused on developing core leadership competencies, including performance management training, coaching and feedback and building trust;

◦Continuous improvement training for employees, including through our internal learning management platform, to promote individual development, strengthen our culture and drive compliance and quality across our organization;

◦Tuition reimbursement programs that provide eligible U.S. and Canadian employees with the opportunity to be reimbursed (up to a set dollar limit) for tuition and certain other expenses associated with degree programs, certifications and continuing education courses that relate to their work at the Company; and

◦Regular recognition of employees across the organization who personify our core values.

•We engage regularly with our employees. Our senior leadership team participates in scheduled meetings with our employees throughout the fiscal year – including quarterly Town Halls with our global workforce – to reiterate strategic priorities, provide business updates, recognize employee contributions and answer employee questions. We

14

also regularly solicit perspectives from our workforce through surveys and other communications channels. At least 90% of global employees participated in our annual engagement surveys conducted between fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2023. Feedback from these surveys was shared across the organization and informed both Company-sponsored initiatives and shared action plans between managers and direct reports. Beginning in fiscal 2024, we updated our strategic listening approach by transitioning to a biennial annual engagement survey and introducing short pulse surveys throughout the year that allow us to receive more real-time employee feedback and take prompt action as needed to enhance our talent attraction and retention capabilities.

•We seek to foster a diverse workforce and an inclusive culture. We recognize that the diversity of our teams and their ideas helps build our collaborative, performance-driven culture, and we are committed to providing an inclusive environment where every individual has the opportunity to thrive. Accordingly, we focus attention and purposeful investments on developing our diversity, equity and inclusion programs and practices and take steps to ensure consistent and fair pay practices. We also require that employees complete annual training on our Code of Conduct (which includes specific modules on how to promote an inclusive culture and help identify and prevent unlawful discrimination) as well as standalone anti-harassment and anti-discrimination training. Additionally, we maintain company-sponsored Colleague Resource Groups designed to provide a forum for employees with shared affinities to connect, advance business priorities and drive talent strategies with an inclusive focus.

•We offer market-competitive compensation opportunities and benefits that are designed to attract, retain and motivate exceptional employees and drive both individual and company performance. In addition to base salary, most of our employees have variable components to their compensation that are tied to achievement of corporate and individual performance goals, the fluctuations of our stock price, or a combination of both. We also offer a comprehensive package of global benefits to support the health and well-being of our employees and their families and continually introduce new and enhanced benefit offerings to meet the evolving needs of our workforce and to remain competitive in local markets, including a hybrid work offering for our corporate offices in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions.

•We maintain policies and practices to promote employee health and safety. As a Company, we are committed to making our workplaces safe and secure. This includes eliminating unsafe work practices and workplace injuries and illnesses and promoting the health, safety and well-being of all employees, contractors and visitors. Important objectives in achieving our vision include creating a positive safety culture, maintaining an effective safety management system and reducing risk in the workplace. Among other things, we utilize a third-party enterprise compliance and risk management solution at all of our locations to track incidents. We also require tailored health and safety compliance training for all site employees as well as annual training for all employees on our Code of Conduct, which includes a specific module on health and safety.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

Certain statements that we make from time to time, including statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and incorporated by reference into this report, constitute “forward looking-statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and reflect management’s assumptions, views, plans, objectives and projections about the future. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “predicts,” “foresees,” “potential” and other words of similar meaning in conjunction with, among other things: discussions of future operations; expected operating results and financial performance; the Company’s strategy for growth; product development, commercialization and anticipated performance and benefits; regulatory approvals; impacts of acquisitions or dispositions; and market position and expenditures.

Because forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding future events, they are subject to uncertainties, risks and changes that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Investors should realize that if underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, or known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, the Company’s actual results and financial condition could vary materially from expectations and projections expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements. Investors are therefore cautioned not to rely on these forward-looking statements.

The following are some important factors that could cause our actual results to differ from our expectations in any forward-looking statements. For further discussion of these and other factors, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in this report.

•Our ability to achieve our long-term strategic and financial-improvement goals;

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the exhibits hereto, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating our business. Our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. This section contains forward-looking statements. Please refer to the cautionary statements made under the heading “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information” at the end of Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more information on the qualifications and limitations on forward-looking statements.

Risks Related to our Business and Industry

If our business strategy does not yield the expected results or we fail to implement the necessary changes to our operations, we could see material adverse effects on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We view our operations and manage our business in three principal reporting segments: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. We believe that Plasma and Hospital have growth potential, while Blood Center competes in challenging markets that require us to manage the business differently, including reducing costs, shrinking the scope of the current product line and evaluating opportunities to exit unfavorable customer contracts. If we have not correctly identified the product categories with greatest growth potential, we will not allocate our resources appropriately which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Material reductions in purchasing from or loss of a significant customer could adversely affect our business.

In fiscal 2024, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 48% of our net revenues. As previously disclosed, our largest Plasma customer, CSL, informed us in April 2021 of its intent not to renew its supply agreement for the use of PCS2 plasma collection system devices and the purchase of disposable plasmapheresis kits in the U.S. following the expiration of the then current term of its contract, which was subsequently extended on a non-exclusive basis through December 2025. Any non-renewal, termination, material reduction in purchasing or material reduction in per unit pricing by any of our largest customers for any reason, including material decreases in demand for plasma or development of alternative processes, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results or operations.

We face intense competition, and if we are unable to successfully expand our product lines through internal research and new product development or keep pace with rapid technological changes in the healthcare industry, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

A significant element of our strategy is to increase revenue growth by focusing on innovation and new product development. The medical device markets in which we participate, however, are highly competitive. We encounter significant competition across our product lines and in each market in which our products are sold from various medical device companies, some of whom have greater financial and marketing resources than we do. In addition, the medical device markets in which we participate and healthcare industry generally are characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change.

New product development requires significant investment in research and development, clinical trials and regulatory approvals. The results of our product development efforts may be affected by a number of factors, including our ability to anticipate customer needs, innovate and develop new products and technologies, effectively use artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning capabilities, successfully complete clinical trials, obtain regulatory approvals in the United States and abroad, manufacture products in a cost-effective manner, obtain appropriate intellectual property protection for our products, and gain and maintain market acceptance of our products. In addition, patents attained by others could preclude or delay our commercialization of a product. There can be no assurance that any products now in development or that we may seek to develop in the future will achieve technological feasibility, obtain regulatory approval or gain market acceptance. If we fail to develop new products or enhance existing products, or if competitive technologies or therapeutic alternatives to plasma-derived pharmaceuticals in development, such as FcRn-targeted therapies, emerge and gain market acceptance, such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, a delay in the timing of the launch of next-generation products and the overall performance of, and continued customer confidence in, those products may result in declines in our market share and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

18

Defects or quality issues associated with our products could adversely affect the results of operations.

Quality is extremely important to us and our customers due to the serious and costly consequences of product failure. Manufacturing or design defects, component failures, unapproved or improper use of our products, or inadequate disclosure of risks or other information relating to the use of our products can lead to injury or other serious adverse events. These events could lead to recalls or safety alerts relating to our products (either voluntary or as required by the FDA or similar governmental authorities in other countries), and could result, in certain cases, in the removal of a product from the market. A recall could result in significant costs and lost sales and customers, enforcement actions and/or investigations by state and federal governments or other enforcement bodies, as well as negative publicity and damage to our reputation that could reduce future demand for our products. Personal injuries relating to the use of our products can also result in significant product liability claims being brought against us. In some circumstances, such adverse events could also cause delays in regulatory approval of new products or the imposition of post-market approval requirements.

We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems and subject to privacy and security laws and a cyber-attack or other breach of these systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We increasingly rely on information technology systems, including cloud-based computing, to process, transmit and store electronic information for our day-to-day operations and for our customers, including sensitive personal information and proprietary or confidential information. Additionally, certain of our products collect data regarding patients and donors and connect to our systems for maintenance and other purposes or are actively managed by Haemonetics on behalf of specific customers. Similar to other large multi-national companies, the size and complexity of our information technology systems makes them vulnerable to a cyber-attack, malicious intrusion, breakdown, destruction, loss of data privacy, or other significant disruption. We also outsource certain elements of our information technology systems to third parties that, as a result of this outsourcing, could have access to certain confidential information and whose systems may also be vulnerable to these types of attacks or disruptions. While we conduct security risk assessments prior to engaging third party suppliers and other vendors and business partners to validate that they maintain appropriate safeguards to protect our and their information systems in connection with the services they provide, it is possible that they suffer a cyber-attack that impacts us. Security threats, including cyber and other attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated, frequent, and adaptive and, like other large multi-national companies, we have experienced cyber incidents in the past and may experience them in the future. Accordingly, our information systems require an ongoing commitment of significant resources to maintain, protect and enhance existing systems and develop new systems to keep pace with continuing changes in information processing technology, evolving systems and regulatory standards, the increasing need to protect patient and customer information and changing customer patterns. Based on the information available as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are not aware of any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operation or financial condition. While we have invested and continue to invest in the protection of personal information and proprietary or confidential information, there can be no assurance that our efforts will prevent cyber-attacks, intrusions, breakdowns or other incidents or ensure compliance with all applicable securities and privacy laws, regulations, standard standards. In addition, third parties may attempt to hack into our products to obtain data relating to patients with our products or our proprietary information. Emerging technologies such as generative AI may be used by malicious actors to create more targeted phishing narratives or otherwise strengthen social engineering capabilities, which may increase our threat landscape. Any failure by us or third parties we work with to maintain or protect our respective information technology systems and data integrity, including from cyber-attacks, intrusions or other breaches, could result in the unauthorized access to patient data and personally identifiable information, theft of intellectual property or other misappropriation of assets, or otherwise compromise our confidential or proprietary information and disrupt our operations. Any of these events, in turn, may cause us to lose existing customers, have difficulty preventing, detecting and controlling fraud, have disputes with customers, physicians and other healthcare professionals, be subject to legal claims and liability, have regulatory sanctions or penalties imposed, have increases in operating expenses, incur expenses or lose revenues as a result of a data privacy breach or theft of intellectual property, or suffer other adverse consequences, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Additionally, the legal and regulatory environment surrounding information security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the imposition of new and changing requirements across businesses, including rules requiring timely public disclosure of cybersecurity incidents. We are required to comply with increasingly complex and changing legal and regulatory requirements that govern the collection, use, storage, security, transfer, disclosure and other processing of personal data in the United States and in other countries, including, but not limited to, HIPAA, HITECH, the California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA, the California Privacy Rights Act, and the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR. The GDPR imposes stringent EU data protection requirements and provides for significant penalties for noncompliance. HIPAA also imposes stringent data

19

privacy and security requirements and the regulatory authority has imposed significant fines and penalties on organizations found to be out of compliance. CCPA provides consumers with a private right of action against companies who have a security breach due to lack of appropriate security measures, and several other U.S. states have introduced or proposed similar privacy laws which may apply to us directly or indirectly through our customers, manufacturers, suppliers or other third-party partners. In addition, new information security and privacy laws have also come into effect in China and other countries where we conduct business. We or our third-party providers and business partners may also be subjected to audits or investigations by one or more domestic or foreign government agencies relating to compliance with information security and privacy laws and regulations, and noncompliance with the laws and regulations could results in material fines or litigation.

If our business development activities are unsuccessful, we may not realize the intended benefits.

We have sought and in the future may seek to supplement our organic growth through strategic acquisitions, investments and alliances, including our recent acquisitions of OpSens Inc. and Attune Medical. We have also sought and in the future may seek to divest certain assets deemed non-core to our long-term strategic objectives. Such transactions are inherently risky and require significant effort and management attention. The success of any acquisition, investment or alliance, or of any divestiture, may be affected by a number of factors, including our ability to properly assess and value the potential business opportunity or to successfully integrate any business we may acquire into our existing business.

Promising partnerships and acquisitions may also not be completed for reasons such as competition among prospective partners or buyers, the inability to reach satisfactory terms, the need for regulatory approvals or the existence of economic conditions affecting our access to capital for acquisitions and other capital investments. If we are successful in completing partnerships and acquisitions, we may be required to expend significant funds, incur additional debt or other obligations, or issue additional securities, which may negatively affect our operating results and financial condition. If we spend significant funds or incur additional debt or obligations, our ability to obtain financing for working capital or other purposes could be adversely affected, and we may be more vulnerable to economic downturns and competitive pressures. In connection with our recent acquisitions of OpSens Inc. and Attune Medical, we incurred approximately $230.0 million in debt under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility that, after giving effect to our entry into a second amended and restated credit agreement in April 2024, reduces the available borrowing amount under our senior unsecured revolving credit facility to $520.0 million and must be repaid by April 2029.

If our business development activities are unsuccessful, we may not realize the intended benefits of such activities, including that acquisition and integration costs may be greater than expected or the possibility that expected return on investment synergies and accretion, or on new growth opportunities funded in whole or part by divestitures, will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected timeframe.

We outsource certain aspects of our business to a single third-party vendor that subjects us to risks, including disruptions in business and increased costs.

Currently, we rely on a single vendor to support several of our business processes, including customer service and support and elements of enterprise technology, procurement, accounting and human resources. We make diligent efforts to ensure that the provider of these outsourced services is observing proper internal control practices. However, there are no guarantees that failures will not occur. Accordingly, we are subject to the risks associated with the vendor’s ability to successfully provide the necessary services to meet our needs.

If our vendor is unable to adequately protect our data or information is lost, if our ability to deliver our services is interrupted (including as a result of significant outbreaks of disease, natural disasters, extreme weather and other conditions caused by or related to climate change, strikes, terrorism attacks, cyber incidents or other adverse events in the countries in which the vendor operates), if our vendor's fees are higher than expected, if our vendor makes mistakes in the execution of operations support, or if the vendor terminates our relationship, then our business and operating results may be negatively affected.

A significant portion of our revenue derives from the sale of blood collection supplies. Declines in the number of blood collection procedures have adversely impacted our business and future declines may have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The demand for whole blood disposable products in the U.S. continues to decrease due to sustained declines in transfusion rates caused by hospitals’ improved blood management techniques and protocols. In response to this trend, U.S. blood center collection groups are primarily focused on obtaining the lowest average selling prices for their whole blood collection products. We expect to see continued declines in transfusion rates and the market to remain price-focused and highly competitive for the

20

foreseeable future. Continued declines in this market could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and results of operations.

Consolidation of healthcare providers and blood collectors, healthcare cost containment pressures, government payment and delivery system reforms and changes in private payer policies could decrease demand for our products, the prices which customers are willing to pay for those products and/or the number of procedures performed using our devices, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Political, economic and policy influences are causing the healthcare and blood collection industries to make substantial structural and financial changes that affect our results of operations. Government and private sector initiatives limiting the growth of healthcare costs are causing structural reforms in healthcare delivery, including the reduction in blood use and reduced payments for care. These trends have placed greater pricing pressure on suppliers and, in some cases, decreased average selling prices and increased the number of sole source relationships. This pressure impacts our Hospital and Blood Center businesses. Our vascular closure devices, for example, are often perceived as physician preference devices with a relatively higher price point compared to certain vascular closure alternatives such as sutures or manual compression, and purchases are commonly made by a hospital only after approval by its value analysis committee. If a hospital value analysis committee does not approve or revokes prior approval for any of the reasons set forth above, the demand for our vascular closure devices may decrease and we could experience an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additionally, while Hospital capital purchase patterns have increased from initially depressed levels during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is difficult to predict the long-term impact of the pandemic on hospital spending patterns.

The influence of integrated delivery networks, group purchasing organizations and large single accounts has the potential to put price pressure on our Hospital business. It also puts price pressure on our U.S. Blood Center customers who are also facing reduced demand for red cells. Our Blood Center customers have responded to this pressure by creating their own group purchasing organizations and resorting to single source tenders to create incentives for suppliers, including us, to significantly reduce prices.

We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies, government contracting requirements and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide healthcare industry, resulting in further business consolidations and alliances among our customers and competitors. This may exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products and adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations.

An interruption in our ability to manufacture our products, obtain key components or raw materials, or the failure of a sole source supplier or sterilization service provider may adversely affect our business.

We have a complex global supply chain that involves integrating key suppliers and our manufacturing capacity into a global movement of components and finished goods.

We manufacture certain key disposables and devices at single locations with limited alternate facilities. If natural disasters, extreme weather and other conditions caused by or related to climate change, strikes, terrorism attacks or other adverse events occur that result in the closure of or damage to one or more of these facilities, we may be unable to supply the relevant products at previous levels or at all for some period. Additionally, for reasons of quality assurance or cost effectiveness, we purchase certain finished goods, components and raw materials from sole suppliers who have their own complex supply chains. We have experienced increased levels of unpredictability in the supply of certain raw materials and components, including semiconductor chips, used in the manufacturing of our products. While we continue to believe we will have access to the raw materials and components that we need, any disruption to one or more of our suppliers’ production or delivery of sufficient volumes of raw materials and components conforming to our specifications could disrupt or delay our ability to deliver finished products to our customers. For example, we purchase components in Asia for use in manufacturing in the U.S. and Mexico. We source all of our apheresis equipment from Asia and regularly ship finished goods from the U.S. and Mexico to the rest of the world.

Many of our products also require sterilization prior to sale or distribution and we utilize a mix of internal resources and contract sterilizers to perform this service. To the extent we or our contract sterilizers are unable to sterilize our products, whether due to capacity, availability of materials for sterilization, regulatory or other constraints, including federal and state regulations on the use of ethylene oxide, we may be unable to transition to alternative internal or external resources or methods in a timely or cost effective manner, or at all, which could have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition.

21

In addition, we manufacture our vascular closure devices under a shelter plan service agreement with Offshore International Incorporated (d/b/a Tetakawi) pursuant to which we lease our manufacturing facility in Guaymas, Mexico. Tetakawi is responsible for a number of ongoing services related to the facility, including provision of external security and maintenance, manufacturing personnel related human resource matters, recruiting support, government compliance, workforce transportation and cross-border shipping of raw components. We are reliant on Tetakawi to provide these services and any disruption in these services or our failure to maintain our contractual relationship with Tetakawi could significantly harm our ability to manufacture our vascular closure devices and maintain sufficient quality standards, which would negatively impact our business and results of operations.

Due to the high standards and stringent requirements of the FDA and other similar non-U.S. regulatory agencies applicable to manufacturing our products, such as the FDA’s QSR and cGMP regulations, we also may not be able to quickly establish additional or replacement sources for certain raw materials, components or finished goods. A reduction or interruption in manufacturing, or an inability to secure alternative sources of raw materials, components or finished goods on commercially reasonable terms or in a timely manner, could compromise our ability to manufacture our products on a timely and cost-competitive basis, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in the cost, composition or availability of the plastics and resins we purchase, or of other raw materials and components used in our products, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face risks related to the price, composition and availability of plastic raw materials used in our disposable products, which represent a substantial portion of our revenues. Material or sustained increases in the price of petroleum or petroleum derivatives could have an adverse impact on the costs to procure plastic raw materials. Additionally, our results of operations could be negatively impacted by volatility in the cost or availability of these and other raw materials and components used in our products that, in turn, increase the costs of producing and distributing our products. In recent years, we have experienced inflationary pressures that have significantly increased the cost of raw materials, transportation, construction, services and energy necessary for the production and distribution of our products. Continued uncertainty around inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and macroeconomic conditions have increased the risk of creating new, or exacerbating existing, economic challenges we face. While we have implemented cost containment measures, selective price increases and taken other actions to offset these inflationary pressures in our global supply chain, we may not be able to completely offset all the increases in our operational costs. Additionally, climate change (including laws or regulations passed in response thereto) could increase our supply costs, including energy and transportation/freight-related expenses, or reduce the availability of raw materials.

The composition of the plastic we purchase is also important. Due to regulatory changes and evolving customer expectations, we may be required to remove materials such as phthalates or PFAS from our devices, find alternative materials which then need to be validated or obtain regulatory approvals from the regulatory authorities for a number of products.

While we have not experienced significant shortages in the past, any interruption in the supply for certain plastics could have a material impact on our business by limiting our ability to manufacture and sell the products that represent a significant portion of our revenues. These outcomes may in turn result in customers transitioning to available competitive products, loss of market share, negative publicity, reputational damage, loss of customer confidence or other negative consequences (including a decline in stock price).

We may not realize the benefits we expect from our Operational Excellence Program.

In July 2019, our Board of Directors approved the Operational Excellence Program, also referred to in this report as the 2020 Program, and delegated authority to management to determine the detail of the initiatives that will comprise the program. While cost savings from the 2020 Program to date have been consistent with our expectations, it is possible that events and circumstances, such as rising interest rates, macroeconomic uncertainty and the related impacts on us, our customers and suppliers could result in our not realizing all of the anticipated benefits or our not realizing the anticipated benefits on our expected timetable. Additionally, any material reduction in purchases by significant customers and any actions we take in response to such anticipated reduction could result in a decrease in benefits we realize under the 2020 Program. Our inability to realize all of the anticipated benefits from the 2020 Program could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

22

Risks Related to Government Regulation

As a medical device and drug manufacturer, we operate in a highly regulated industry, and non-compliance with applicable laws or regulations could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

The manufacture, distribution and marketing of our products are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other state and non-U.S. regulatory bodies. Our operations are also subject to review and monitoring by the FDA and other regulatory authorities. Government regulation of medical devices is meant to assure their safety and effectiveness, and includes regulation of, among other things, the product’s development, testing, premarket clearance, de novo classification or approval, manufacture, marketing, labeling, post-market surveillance, reporting, and imports and exports. Before a new medical device, or a new use of an existing product can be marketed in the United States, it must first receive either premarket clearance under Section 510(k) of the U.S. Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FDCA, a grant of a request for de novo classification or a Premarket Approval, or PMA, from the FDA, unless an exemption applies. Similarly, before a new drug can be marketed in the U.S., it must first receive approval of a new drug application or abbreviated new drug application under the FDCA. The process of obtaining regulatory authorization to market a medical device or a drug can be costly and time-consuming, and we may not be able to obtain these authorizations on a timely basis, if at all.

Many of our currently commercialized products have received 510(k) clearance. In the future, the FDA may determine that our products will require more costly, lengthy and uncertain de novo classification or PMA processes. Modifications to Class III devices, like our vascular closure products, may require additional clinical studies or supplemental PMA submissions. If the FDA requires us to go through a lengthier, more rigorous process for future products or modifications to existing products, our product introductions or modifications could be delayed or canceled, which could adversely affect our revenue. In particular, the FDA has recently placed increased scrutiny on cybersecurity for medical devices, which may necessitate additional time and cost for product development, submission and approval, de novo classification or clearance. In addition, even if we do obtain clearance, de novo classification or approval, the FDA may not authorize these products for the indications that we requested. Any delay in, or failure to receive or maintain, clearances, de novo classifications or approvals for our products under development could prevent us from generating revenue from these products.

Failure to substantially comply with applicable regulations could subject our products to recall or seizure of our products by government authorities, or an order to suspend manufacturing and distribution activities. If our products were determined to have design or manufacturing flaws, this could also result in their recall or seizure. Either of these situations could also result in administrative actions like untitled or warning letters or in the imposition of fines and other penalties or sanctions.

Our products are also subject to approval and regulation by foreign regulatory and safety agencies. For example, the EU has adopted the EU Medical Device Regulation, or EU MDR, and the EU In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation, or EU IVDR, each of which impose stricter requirements for the marketing and sale of medical devices beyond those of the current medical device directives they replace, including in the area of clinical evaluation requirements, quality systems and post-market surveillance. Complying with the requirements of these regulations may require us to incur significant expenditures and we may experience delays that negatively impact the ability to sell our full suite of products in certain jurisdictions. Similarly, the separation of states from participation in the EU, such as through the cessation of the UK’s membership in the EU (commonly known as “Brexit”) and the separation of the Swiss and EU medical product markets with the adoption of the EU MDR (commonly referred to as “Swexit”), may result in further regulatory risk and complexity as the former EU member or participant state establishes separate laws and regulations governing medical products. More stringent regulations have also been introduced in many countries outside of Europe that previously did not have medical device regulations, had minimal regulations or relied on reciprocal recognition of approval in other markets. Failure to meet these requirements could adversely impact our business in the EU and other applicable regions.

If we or our suppliers fail to comply with laws and regulations governing the manufacture and production of our products, our products could be subject to restrictions or withdrawal from the market.

Any product for which we obtain clearance, de novo classification or approval, and the manufacturing processes, reporting requirements, post-approval clinical data and promotional activities for such product, will be subject to continued regulatory review and oversight, and our facilities will be subject to periodic inspection (both routine and unannounced) by the FDA and other domestic and foreign regulatory bodies. In particular, we and our third-party suppliers must comply with the FDA’s QSR or cGMP requirements (depending on the products at issue), which address, among other things, the methods of documentation of the design, testing, production, control, quality assurance, labeling, packaging, sterilization, storage and shipping of our products.

23

Any future failure by us or one of our suppliers to comply with applicable statutes and regulations administered by the FDA or other regulatory authority could result in administrative actions, field actions, or civil or criminal enforcement actions.

Furthermore, our key component suppliers may not currently be or may not continue to be in compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements, which could result in our failure to produce our products on a timely basis and in the required quantities, if at all. Any sanctions by the FDA or other regulatory authority could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are also subject to environmental laws, which are becoming more stringent throughout the world. For example, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulates the use of ethylene oxide for sterilization of medical devices, and is increasingly focused on reducing emissions from the ethylene oxide sterilization process, which could increase our costs of operations and necessitate changes to our manufacturing plants and processes. Other environmental laws may have similar consequences to us or our suppliers, or result in liability to us. Additionally, increased environmental regulation, including the enactment of laws and regulations to address climate change, may increase our compliance costs or restrict certain aspects of our activities.

As a medical device and drug manufacturer, we are subject to safety reporting requirements.

Under the FDA’s medical device reporting regulations, medical device manufacturers are required to report to the FDA information of which they become aware that a device has or may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or malfunctioned in a way that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction of the device or one of our similar devices were to recur. In addition, drug manufacturers are required to report adverse drug experiences associated with the use of a drug and submit field alert reports for instances of contamination, change or deterioration of the distributed product or failure to meet specifications. Similar reporting requirements exist in some of the other jurisdictions in which we operate. Failure to report these events to the FDA or other applicable regulatory authorities within the required timeframes, or at all, could lead to enforcement actions, fines and criminal sanctions against us.

Our relationships with customers and third-party payers are subject to applicable anti-kickback, fraud and abuse, transparency and other healthcare laws and regulations, which could expose us to criminal sanctions, civil penalties, exclusion, contractual damages, reputational harm and diminished profits and future earnings.

We are subject to fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations that constrain the business or financial arrangements and relationships through which we market, sell and distribute our products. In addition, we are subject to transparency laws and patient privacy regulation by U.S. federal and state governments and by governments in foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct our business.

The shifting commercial compliance environment and the need to build and maintain robust and expandable systems to comply with different compliance or reporting requirements in multiple jurisdictions increase the possibility that a healthcare or pharmaceutical company may fail to comply fully with one or more of these requirements. Efforts to ensure that our business arrangements with third parties will comply with applicable healthcare laws and regulations may involve substantial costs. It is possible that governmental authorities will conclude that our business practices do not comply with applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations or guidance, or anti-bribery laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, or equivalent laws in other jurisdictions. If our operations are found to be in violation of any of these laws or any other governmental regulations that may apply to us, we may be subject to significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, exclusion from government funded healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and the curtailment or restructuring of our operations. If any of the physicians or other providers or entities with whom we expect to do business are found not to be in compliance with applicable laws, they may be subject to criminal, civil or administrative sanctions, including exclusions from government funded healthcare programs. Even if we are not determined to have violated these laws, government investigations into these issues typically require the expenditure of significant resources and generate negative publicity, which could harm our financial condition and divert resources and the attention of our management from operating our business.

Changes in tax laws or exposure to additional income tax liabilities could have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations and/or liquidity.

We are subject to income taxes, non-income based taxes and tax audits in the U.S. and various foreign jurisdictions. Tax authorities may disagree with certain positions we have taken and assess additional taxes. We regularly assess the likely outcomes of these audits in order to determine the appropriateness of our tax provision and have established contingency reserves for material, known tax exposures. However, the calculation of such tax exposures involves the application of complex

24

tax laws and regulations in many jurisdictions, as well as interpretations as to the legality under various rules in certain jurisdictions. Therefore, there can be no assurance that we will accurately predict the outcomes of these disputes or other tax audits or that issues raised by tax authorities will be resolved at a financial cost that does not exceed our related reserves and the actual outcomes of these disputes and other tax audits could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.

The tax regimes we are subject to or operate under are unsettled and may be subject to significant change. Changes in applicable tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation and application, including the possibility of retroactive effect, could affect our income tax expense and profitability, as they did in fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2018 upon passage of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and in 2020 with the passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. Certain provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act passed in 2022, including a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax, as well as the similar 15% global minimum tax under the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules, may impact our income tax expense, profitability, and capital allocation decisions. The Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules will be effective for fiscal 2025. We are still evaluating the impact of Pillar Two on the effective tax rate.

As we expand the scale of our international business activities, any changes in the U.S. or foreign taxation of such activities may increase our worldwide effective tax rate and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Such changes may also apply retroactively to our historical operations and result in taxes greater than the amounts estimated and recorded in our financial statements.

Risks Related to our Financial Obligations and Indebtedness

We have a significant amount of debt that may decrease our business flexibility, access to capital, and/or increase our borrowing costs, and we may still incur additional debt in the future, which may adversely affect our operations and financial results.

In April 2024, subsequent to the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the existing senior unsecured term loan and senior unsecured revolving credit facility and extend their maturity date through April 2029. The second amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $250.0 million senior unsecured term loan and a $750.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2024 Revised Credit Facilities”). As of April 30, 2024, in addition to our $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of indebtedness under our convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”), the Company had $250.0 million of debt outstanding under the senior unsecured term loan and $230.0 million outstanding under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

Our 2024 Revised Credit Facilities contain financial covenants that require us to maintain specified financial ratios that may limit our ability to borrow additional funds and that require us to make interest and principal payments. As of April 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the covenants pursuant to our 2024 Revised Credit Facilities, and we currently forecast that we will be in compliance with these covenants through the period ending March 29, 2025.

The conditional conversion feature of the 2026 Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

Under certain circumstances, the noteholders may convert their 2026 Notes at their option prior to the scheduled maturities. If one or more noteholders elect to convert their 2026 Notes, we would be required to settle a portion or all of our conversion obligation through the payment of cash, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, holders of our 2026 Notes will have the right to require us to repurchase their 2026 Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture, dated as of March 5, 2021, between U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and us (the “Indenture”)), at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, to but not including, the fundamental change repurchase date. We may not have enough available cash or be able to obtain financing at the time we are required to repurchase the 2026 Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. In addition, applicable law, regulatory authorities and the agreements governing our other indebtedness may restrict our ability to repurchase the 2026 Notes or pay the cash amounts due upon conversion. Our failure to repurchase the 2026 Notes or to pay the cash amounts due upon conversion when required will constitute a default under the Indenture. A default under the Indenture or the fundamental change itself could also lead to a default under agreements governing our other indebtedness, including our 2024 Revised Credit Facilities, which may result in that other indebtedness becoming immediately payable in full. We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy all amounts due under the other indebtedness and the Notes.

25

Even if holders do not elect to convert their 2026 Notes, we could be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify all or a portion of the outstanding principal of the 2026 Notes as a current rather than long-term liability, which would result in a material reduction of our net working capital.

The Capped Call Transactions may affect the value of the 2026 Notes and our common stock.

In connection with the 2026 Notes issuance, we entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions (the “Option Counterparties”). The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Notes and/or offset any potential cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap.

From time to time, the Option Counterparties and/or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivatives with respect to our common stock and/or purchasing or selling our common stock or other securities of ours in secondary market transactions prior to the maturity of the 2026 Notes. This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of our common stock or the 2026 Notes.

We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Capped Call Transactions.

The Option Counterparties are financial institutions, and we are subject to the risk that one or more of the Option Counterparties may default or otherwise fail to perform, or may exercise certain rights to terminate, their obligations under the Capped Call Transactions. Our exposure to the credit risk of the option counterparties is not secured by any collateral. Past global economic conditions have from time to time resulted in the actual or perceived failure or financial difficulties of many financial institutions. If an Option Counterparty becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at the time under such transactions with such Option Counterparty. Our exposure depends on many factors, but our exposure will generally increase if the market price or the volatility of our common stock increases. In addition, upon default by an Option Counterparty, we may suffer more dilution than we currently anticipate with respect to our common stock. We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of the Option Counterparties.

In addition, the Capped Call Transactions are complex, and they may not operate as planned. For example, the terms of the Capped Call Transactions may be subject to adjustment, modification or, in some cases, renegotiation if certain corporate or other transactions occur. Accordingly, these transactions may not operate as we intend if we are required to adjust their terms as a result of transactions in the future or upon unanticipated developments that may adversely affect the functioning of the Capped Call Transactions.

Provisions in the Indenture could delay or prevent an otherwise beneficial takeover of us.

Certain provisions in the 2026 Notes and the Indenture could make a third party attempt to acquire us more difficult or expensive. For example, if a takeover constitutes a fundamental change, then noteholders will have the right to require us to repurchase their 2026 Notes for cash. In addition, if a takeover constitutes a make-whole fundamental change, then we may be required to temporarily increase the conversion rate. In either case, and in other cases, our obligations under the 2026 Notes and the Indenture could increase the cost of acquiring us or otherwise discourage a third party from acquiring us or removing incumbent management, including in a transaction that noteholders or holders of our common stock may view as favorable.

Conversion of the 2026 Notes may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders.

The conversion of some or all of the Notes will dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders to the extent we deliver shares of our common stock upon conversion of any of the 2026 Notes. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect our common stock’s prevailing market prices. In addition, the existence of the 2026 Notes may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the 2026 Notes could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the 2026 Notes into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

Risks Related to Operating Internationally

As a substantial amount of our revenue comes from outside the U.S., we are subject to geopolitical events, economic volatility, violations of anti-corruption laws, export and import restrictions and tariffs, decisions by local regulatory authorities and the laws and medical practices in foreign jurisdictions.

We do business in over 90 countries and have distributors in approximately 80 of these countries. This exposes us to currency fluctuation, geopolitical risk, economic volatility, anti-corruption laws, export and import restrictions, local regulatory authorities and the laws and medical practices in foreign jurisdictions.

U.S. legislation aimed at boosting competitiveness of U.S. businesses may have unintended effects on our business. Tariffs and other protectionist measures directed at China and other markets, as well as prolonged uncertainty regarding such measures as administrations change, may have adverse effects on our ability to source, manufacture and distribute products, or receive payments, in a timely and cost effective manner, thereby adversely affecting our business. In addition to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, discussed below, our business in markets outside the United States is subject to changing political, social and geopolitical conditions, such as tensions between China and Taiwan and the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, including any political instability resulting from war, terrorism, insurrections and civil unrest, and changing economic conditions in these markets, such as inflation, deflation, interest rate volatility and credit availability. Additionally, a number of factors, including U.S. relations with the governments of the foreign countries in which we operate, changes to international trade agreements and treaties, changes in tax laws and regulations, economic sanctions (including those imposed by the U.S. and other governments against Russia), export controls, restrictions on the ability to transfer capital across borders, tariffs and other increases in trade protectionism and barriers to market participation, or the weakening or loss of certain intellectual property protection rights in some countries, may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Many of these risks are rapidly evolving and subject to an accelerating pace of change. We are continuing to monitor the situation in Ukraine and globally as well as assess its potential impact on our business. Although our business in Russia accounted for only about 1% of fiscal 2024 net revenues, a significant escalation or further expansion of the conflict’s current scope or related disruptions to the global markets could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our international operations are governed by the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, and other similar anti-corruption laws in other countries. Generally, these laws prohibit companies and their business partners or other intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign governments and government officials in order to obtain or retain business. Global enforcement of such anti-corruption laws has increased in recent years, including aggressive investigations and enforcement proceedings. While we have an active compliance program and various other safeguards to discourage impermissible practices, we have distributors in approximately 80 countries, several of which are considered high risk for corruption. As a result, our global operations carry some risk of unauthorized impermissible activity on the part of one of our distributors, employees, agents or consultants. Any alleged or actual violation could subject us to government scrutiny, severe criminal or civil fines, or sanctions on our ability to export product outside the U.S., which could adversely affect our reputation and financial condition.

Export of U.S. technology or goods manufactured in the U.S. to some jurisdictions requires special U.S. export authorization or local market controls that may be influenced by factors, including political dynamics, outside our control.

Finally, any other significant changes in the competitive, legal, regulatory, reimbursement or economic environments of the jurisdictions in which we conduct our international business could have a material impact on our business.

We sell our products in certain emerging economies which exposes us to less mature regulatory systems, more volatile markets for our products and greater credit risks. A loss of funding for our products or changes to the regulatory regime could lead to lost revenue or account receivables.

There are risks with doing business in emerging economies, such as Brazil, Russia, India and China. These economies tend to have less mature product regulatory systems and more volatile financial markets. In addition, the government controlled healthcare system’s ability to invest in our products and systems may abruptly shift due to changing government priorities, geopolitical events or funding capacity. Our ability to sell products in these economies is dependent upon, among other factors, our ability to hire qualified employees or agents to represent our products locally and our ability to obtain and maintain the necessary regulatory approvals in a less mature regulatory environment. If we are unable to retain qualified representatives or maintain the necessary regulatory approvals, we will not be able to continue to sell products in these markets. We are also exposed to a higher degree of financial risk if we extend credit to customers in these economies.

27

In many of the international markets in which we do business, including certain parts of Europe, South America, the Middle East and Asia, our employees, agents or distributors offer to sell our products in response to public tenders issued by various governmental agencies.

There is additional risk in selling our products through agents or distributors, particularly in public tenders. If they misrepresent our products, do not provide appropriate service and delivery, or commit a violation of local or U.S. law, our reputation could be harmed and we could be subject to fines, sanctions or both.

We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, which could adversely affect our cash flows and results of operations. 

International revenues and expenses account for a substantial portion of our operations. In fiscal 2024, our international revenues accounted for 25.9% of our total revenues. The exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates takes different forms. Reported revenues, as well as manufacturing and operational costs denominated in foreign currencies by our international businesses, fluctuate due to exchange rate movement when translated into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our profitability in U.S. dollars of products and services sold by us into international markets, where payment for our products and services and related manufacturing and operational costs is made in local currencies.

Our effective tax rate may fluctuate and we may incur obligations in tax jurisdictions in excess of amounts that have been accrued.

We are subject to taxation in numerous countries, states and other jurisdictions. In preparing our financial statements, we record the amount of tax payable in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. Our future effective tax rate, however, may be lower or higher than prior years due to numerous factors, including a change in our geographic earnings mix, changes in the measurement of our deferred taxes and recently enacted and future tax law changes in jurisdictions in which we operate. We are also subject to tax audits in various jurisdictions and tax authorities may disagree with certain positions we have taken and assess additional taxes. Any of these factors could cause us to experience an effective tax rate significantly different from previous periods or our current expectations, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Litigation

There is a risk that our intellectual property may be subject to misappropriation in some countries.

Certain countries, particularly China and Russia, do not enforce compliance with laws that protect intellectual property rights with the same degree of vigor as is available under the U.S. and European systems of justice. In order to aggressively protect our intellectual property throughout the world, we have a program of patent disclosures and filings in markets where we conduct significant business. While we believe this program is reasonable and adequate, the risk of loss is inherent in litigation as different legal systems offer different levels of protection to intellectual property and it is still possible that even patented technologies may not be protected absolutely from infringement.

Pending and future intellectual property litigation could be costly and disruptive to us.

We operate in an industry that is susceptible to significant intellectual property litigation. This type of litigation is expensive, complex and lengthy and its outcome is difficult to predict. Patent litigation may result in adverse outcomes and could significantly divert the attention of our technical and management personnel. As described in Note 15, Commitments & Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are currently party to intellectual property litigation.

Our products may be determined to infringe another party’s patent, which could lead to financial losses or adversely affect our ability to market our products.

There is a risk that one or more of our products may be determined to infringe a patent held by another party. If this were to occur, we may be subject to an injunction or to payment of royalties, or both, which may adversely affect our ability to market the affected product or otherwise have an adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, competitors may patent technological advances that may give them a competitive advantage or create barriers to entry.

28

In order to guard against the risk of infringement of intellectual property rights held by third parties we conduct freedom to operate studies through qualified counsel on all newly developed or acquired technologies. While we believe this practice is reasonable and adequate, there is risk that third party patents or trademarks were not identified in such studies or that litigation outcomes regarding infringement or validity may be contrary to our understanding of the facts or the established law.

We operate in an industry susceptible to significant product liability claims. Pending and future product liability claims and other litigation may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations or liquidity, and they also have the potential to damage our reputation, impair our ability to market our products and impact our ability to maintain applicable insurance coverage on reasonable terms or at all.

Our products are relied upon by medical personnel in connection with the treatment of patients and the collection of blood or blood components from donors. In the event that patients or donors sustain injury or death in connection with their condition or treatment, we, along with others, may be sued and whether or not we are ultimately determined to be liable, we may incur significant legal expenses. These claims may be brought by individuals seeking relief on their own behalf or purporting to represent a class. In addition, we may be subject to claims against us even if the apparent injury is due to the actions of others or the pre-existing health of the patient. For example, we rely on physicians and healthcare providers to properly and correctly use our products on patients. If these physicians or healthcare providers are not properly trained, are negligent in using our products or use our products “off-label,” the capabilities of our products may be diminished or the patient may suffer critical injury. We cannot prevent a physician from using our products for off-label applications. In addition, we cannot guarantee that physicians are trained by us or their peers prior to utilizing our products. Complications resulting from the use of our products off-label or use by physicians who have not been trained appropriately, or at all, may expose us to product liability claims and harm our reputation. Any such complications or adverse safety outcomes following use of VASCADE or VASCADE MVP may result in higher payments to our customers under a Performance Guarantee program applicable to those products, which would harm our business and results of operations. In addition, product liability claims may be asserted against us in the future based on events we are not aware of at the present time.

If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against pending or future product liability claims and other litigation (including class actions and stockholder derivative actions), we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit or halt commercialization of our products. Even successful defenses require significant financial and management resources. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, such litigation could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity and further could damage our reputation and, therefore, impair our ability to market our products and make applicable insurance coverage more costly or difficult to obtain. While we believe that our current product liability insurance coverage is sufficient, there is no assurance that such coverage will be adequate to cover incurred liabilities or that we will be able to obtain acceptable product and professional liability coverage in the future. Additionally, we do not maintain third-party insurance coverage for all categories of potential liability, which increases our exposure to unanticipated claims and adverse decisions and these losses could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

General Risk Factors

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain key personnel needed to successfully operate the business and to plan for future executive transitions.

Our ability to compete effectively depends on our ability to attract and retain key employees, including people in senior management, sales, marketing and R&D positions, and to facilitate seamless leadership transitions for key positions. Our ability to recruit and retain key talent will depend on a number of factors, including hiring practices of our competitors, compensation and benefits, work location, work environment, hybrid work environment policies and industry economic conditions. If we fail to attract and retain key personnel in senior management and other positions, or if our succession planning efforts are not effective, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our share price has been volatile and may fluctuate, and accordingly, the value of an investment in our common stock may also fluctuate.

Stock markets in general and our common stock in particular have experienced significant price and trading volume volatility over recent years. The market price and trading volume of our common stock may continue to be subject to significant fluctuations due to factors described under this Item 1A. Risk Factors, as well as economic and geopolitical conditions in general and to variability in the prevailing sentiment regarding our operations or business prospects, as well as, among other

29

things, changing investment priorities of our shareholders. Because the market price of our common stock fluctuates significantly, shareholders may not be able sell their shares at attractive prices.

Share repurchase programs, including under our existing share repurchase authorization, could affect the price of our common stock and increase volatility and may be suspended or terminated at any time, which may result in a decrease in the trading price of our common stock.

In August 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors had approved a new three-year share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of outstanding shares of our common stock through August 2025. Under the share repurchase program, we are authorized to repurchase, from time to time, outstanding shares of common stock in accordance with applicable laws both on the open market, including under trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and in privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased is determined by us and depends on a number of factors, including market conditions, applicable legal requirements and compliance with the terms of loan covenants. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and we have no obligation to repurchase any amount of our common stock under the programs. Repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase program could affect our stock price and increase its volatility. The existence of a share repurchase program could also cause our stock price to be higher than it would be in the absence of such a program and could potentially reduce the market liquidity for our common stock. There can be no assurance that any share repurchases will enhance shareholder value because the market price of our common stock may decline below the levels at which we repurchased our common stock. Although our share repurchase program is intended to enhance long-term shareholder value, short-term stock price fluctuations could reduce the program’s effectiveness. Refer to Note 7, Earnings per Share, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

Our business could be negatively impacted by corporate responsibility matters.

There has been increased focus from certain regulatory bodies, investors, customers, employees and other stakeholders concerning corporate responsibility matters, including topics identified under the framework of Environmental, Social and Governance, or ESG. Customer preferences or requirements may be influenced by company progress across various ESG topics related to, among other things, human capital and environmental impact matters. From time to time, we may announce certain initiatives, including goals, regarding corporate responsibility focus areas for our company. We may not achieve, or may be perceived as not achieving, against such initiatives, including as a result of changes in our business. The standards by which corporate responsibility efforts and related matters are measured are developing and evolving. For example, organizations that provide information to investors on corporate governance and related matters have developed ratings processes for evaluating companies on their respective approaches to corporate responsibility matters, which are increasingly being employed by investors, lenders, and customers to inform their investment, financing or purchasing decisions. Any failure, or perceived failure, to achieve against our corporate responsibility initiatives or to establish goals that align with stakeholder expectations could result in declines in our market share and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including as a result of reputational harm, an inability to attract customers, and an inability to attract and retain top talent.

Climate change, or legal, regulatory or market measures to address climate change, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The long-term effects of climate change are difficult to predict and may be widespread. Extreme weather or other conditions could adversely impact our operations and supply chain, including the variability and cost of raw materials and components required for the operation of our business. In addition, access to and pricing of certain natural resources, such as water, could impact our manufacturing operations. There has been increased focus by federal, international, state and local regulatory and legislative bodies to combat and/or limit the effects of climate change. If legislation or regulations are enacted in jurisdictions in which we do business that are more stringent than our current obligations, we and companies in our supply chain may experience increased compliance burdens and costs to meet these obligations, which could cause disruption in the sourcing, manufacturing and distribution of our products and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additionally, the impacts of climate change may further include customer preferences and requirements. Failure to meet these preferences or requirements could potentially result in loss of market shares.

30

Actual or threatened public health crises could harm our business.

Global pandemics or other public health crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, could adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations, and those of our customers and suppliers, and any such future pandemics or public health crises could include disruptions in global economic activity, global supply chains and labor markets, operational challenges such as site shutdowns, workplace disruptions or limited provider capacity to perform procedures using our products, volatile financial market dynamics and significant volatility in price and availability of goods and services.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

We assess, identify and manage risks from cybersecurity threats through our global cybersecurity program. The program is managed by a full-time Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”) whose organization manages our cybersecurity strategy, architecture, policies, standards and processes for the security of Haemonetics’ enterprise network and information assets. The CISO reports to our Chief Information Officer (“CIO”) and is supported by a dedicated security operations team. Our current CISO has over 20 years of information technology experience, including positions of increasing responsibility with respect to security architecture, software engineering, security operations and incident response.

The CISO’s organization monitors, manages and works to identify and assess, cybersecurity risks through various technologies, resources, processes and policies that are regularly updated to align with the changing threat landscape, our evolving business needs as well as global regulatory requirements. Our global cybersecurity program is aligned to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework and is certified to the ISO 27001 global standard on Information Security Management. Our cybersecurity program is closely integrated with our QMS under the ISO 13485 standard. Our program utilizes layered defenses to help protect against cybersecurity threats and to work to secure our assets, reduce detection time and improve recoverability. Among other things, this includes ongoing systems monitoring with support from a managed detection and response service provider and other third-party vendors to augment our monitoring and response capabilities, as well as a standardized incident response program with incident response team members participating in regularly scheduled management reviews and tabletop exercises. Our CISO and CIO conduct regular cross-functional management reviews of our programs, including with members of senior leadership. All employees and those contractors of the Company with access to our information systems receive annual cybersecurity awareness training, and we have integrated cybersecurity and data protection topics into our Code of Conduct. All critical information systems have a written business continuity plan that is exercised at least annually. The entire program is audited annually by both internal and third-party auditors.

Cybersecurity is also included in our product development life cycle and part of our vendor and business partner evaluation process. Our product development approach considers cybersecurity best practices and builds security controls into our product design. Haemonetics is a member of MedISAO, an industry organization dedicated to improving the security of medical devices, where security issues can be reported securely. We monitor our products for vulnerabilities and follow bulletins, patches and alerts posted to our download center or communicated directly to customers. Additionally, we conduct security risk assessments prior to engaging third party suppliers and other vendors and business partners to validate that they maintain appropriate safeguards to protect our and their information systems in connection with services they provide. This risk assessment is heightened with respect to vendors or business partners that have access to personal information that we collect, maintain or use.

We evaluate cybersecurity risk as part of our broader enterprise risk framework. Our Board oversees Haemonetics’ enterprise-wide approach to risk management while our management team is responsible for managing risk on a day-to-day basis and for bringing to the Board’s attention material risks facing the Company, including with respect to cybersecurity threats. The Board focuses on the quality and scope of the Company’s risk management strategies and considers the most significant areas of risk inherent in the Company’s business strategies and operations as well as the steps that management is taking to mitigate those risks. We conduct an annual enterprise risk assessment – including consideration of cybersecurity risks – that is reviewed with the Board and Audit Committee and informs strategic priorities throughout the Company. Additionally, certain Board committees consider discrete categories of cybersecurity risk relating to their respective areas of responsibility. Our CISO reports at least annually on Haemonetics’ threat landscape and security programs to our Governance and Compliance Committee, which oversees Haemonetics’ compliance programs and policies regarding data privacy and cybersecurity risks associated with our information technology systems. Management also reports on these programs to the Audit Committee as

31

needed and periodically reviews with our Technology Committee certain aspects of new and existing products as they relate to quality, safety and cybersecurity.

Based on the information available as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are not aware of any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. Despite our security measures, however, there can be no assurance that we, or the third parties with which we interact, will not experience a cybersecurity incident in the future that may materially affect us. For additional information, see Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a discussion of cybersecurity-related risks.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

As of March 30, 2024, our global headquarters are located in Boston, Massachusetts and our principal manufacturing centers are located in Pennsylvania and California within the U.S., as well as internationally in Mexico, Malaysia and Canada.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our Business

Haemonetics is a global healthcare company dedicated to providing a suite of innovative medical technology solutions that improve the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of care. We challenge ourselves to think big and make new possibilities a reality, so that our customers can make it matter for patients, every single day. Our technology addresses important medical markets: blood and plasma component collection, the surgical suite and hospital transfusion services.

We view our operations and manage our business in three principal reporting segments: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. For that purpose, “Plasma” includes plasma collection devices and disposables, donor management software and supporting software solutions sold to plasma customers. “Blood Center” includes blood collection and processing devices and disposables for red cells, platelets and whole blood. “Hospital” is comprised of Interventional Technologies, which includes Vascular Closure and Sensor Guided Technologies products, and Blood Management Technologies, which includes Hemostasis Management, Cell Salvage and Transfusion Management products.

We believe that Plasma and Hospital have growth potential, while Blood Center competes in challenging markets that require us to manage the business differently, including reducing costs, shrinking the scope of the current product line, and evaluating opportunities to exit unfavorable customer contracts.

Recent Developments

Acquisitions

Attune Medical

On March 5, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Advanced Cooling Therapy, Inc., d/b/a Attune Medical (“Attune Medical”), the manufacturer of the ensoETM® proactive esophageal cooling device, based in Chicago, Illinois. The acquisition closed on April 1, 2024, subsequent to our fiscal year end. The Company acquired Attune Medical for total upfront consideration of $160.0 million. The agreement also provides for additional contingent consideration based on sales growth over the next three years and the achievement of certain other milestones. The Company financed the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The addition of Attune Medical expands the Hospital business unit’s presence in electrophysiology and complements its Vascular Closure product line.

OpSens Inc.

On October 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Arrangement Agreement with OpSens Inc. (“OpSens”), a medical device cardiology-focused company delivering solutions based on its proprietary optical technology, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of OpSens. On December 12, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of OpSens for total consideration of approximately $254.5 million, or $243.9 million, net of cash acquired. The Company financed the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

OpSens offers commercially and clinically validated optical technology for use primarily in interventional cardiology. OpSens’ core products include the SavvyWire®, a sensor-guided 3-in-1 guidewire for TAVR procedures, advancing the workflow of the procedure and enabling potentially shorter hospital stays for patients; and the OptoWire®, a pressure guidewire that aims to improve clinical outcomes by accurately and consistently measuring Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) to aid clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with coronary artery disease. OpSens also manufactures a range of fiber optic sensor solutions used in medical devices and other critical industrial applications. The addition of OpSens expands the Hospital business unit portfolio in the interventional cardiology market and is included in the Hospital reportable segment.

Portfolio Rationalization Initiatives

In November 2023, the Company announced its plans to end of life the ClotPro analyzer system within the Hospital business unit and certain products within the Blood Center business unit, primarily in Whole Blood, including the associated

33

manufacturing operations and closure of certain other facilities. The Company incurred charges of $13.9 million in fiscal 2024 related to these initiatives.

Market Trends

Plasma Market

There are two key aspects to the market for our plasma products - the growth in demand for plasma-derived biopharmaceuticals and the limited number of significant biopharmaceutical companies in this market.

Changes in demand for plasma-derived biopharmaceuticals, particularly immunoglobulin, are the key driver of plasma collection volumes in the biopharmaceutical market. Various factors related to the supply of plasma and the production of plasma-derived biopharmaceuticals also affect collection volume, including the following:

•Biopharmaceutical companies are seeking more yield from each plasma collection to meet growing demand for biopharmaceuticals without requiring an equivalent increase in plasma donations.

•Newly approved indications for auto-immune diseases treated with plasma-derived therapies, the growing understanding and diagnosis of these diseases, longer lifespans and a growing aging patient population increase the demand for plasma.

•Geographical expansion of biopharmaceuticals also increases demand for plasma.

Despite the overall growth in the market, the number of biopharmaceutical companies that collect and fractionate source plasma is low and industry consolidation is ongoing. Significant barriers to entry exist for new entrants due to high capital outlay requirements for fractionation, long regulatory pathways to the licensing of collection centers and fractionation facilities and approval of plasma-derived biopharmaceuticals. As a result, there are relatively few customers for our Plasma products, especially in the U.S. where approximately two-thirds of the world’s source plasma is collected and only a few customers provide the majority of our Plasma revenue. However, certain jurisdictions such as Egypt and the United Kingdom have begun to collect or are considering collection of plasma for fractionation for their local needs, which could expand the Plasma market.

Blood Center Market

In the Blood Center market, we sell automated blood component and manual whole blood collection systems. While we sell products around the world, a significant portion of our sales are to a limited number of customers due to relatively limited number of blood collectors.

Within the Blood Center market, we have seen three trends that have negatively impacted growth of the overall marketplace despite the overall increase in aging populations. Overall, we expect a flat to low single-digit decline in this business.

•Declining transfusion rates in mature markets due to the development of more minimally invasive procedures with lower associated blood loss, as well as better blood management.

•Competition in multi-unit collection technology for automated blood component collection systems has intensified and has negatively impacted our sales in markets where these collections are prevalent.

▪Industry consolidation through group purchasing organizations has intensified pricing competition particularly in the manual whole blood collection systems.

Hospital Markets

Interventional Technologies:

Vascular Closure Market - The target markets for our Vascular Closure products used in coronary, structural heart, peripheral and electrophysiology procedures, are highly concentrated in the U.S. The mature market of coronary and peripheral procedures consists of interventions to diagnose and treat vascular diseases. Our products also address many of the vascular closure needs for the structural heart (contralateral access sites) and electrophysiology procedures. Our Vascular Closure market continues to grow with the VASCADE MVP launch in Japan in September 2023. In addition, our VASCADE and VASCADE MVP

34

vascular closure systems received CE mark clearance in fiscal 2023, providing a pathway for country-specific introduction of these products in the EU.

Sensor Guided Technologies Market - The market for sensor-guided technologies reflects varying dynamics across different interventional cardiology procedures. In the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) market, characterized by high growth, the demand for innovative solutions like SavvyWire is driven by an aging population and increasing prevalence of aortic valve diseases globally. Conversely, in the more mature percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) market, the steady demand for sensor-guided technologies such as OptoWire remains driven by persistent prevalence of coronary artery disease, emphasizing the need for advanced diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Our strategic investment in sensor-guided technologies positions us to capitalize on these trends, leveraging innovation to address evolving needs in both high-growth and mature markets while expanding our global market presence through initiatives like obtaining CE mark clearance for our vascular closure systems.

Blood Management Technologies:

Hemostasis Management Market - The use of routine coagulation testing is well established throughout the world in various medical procedures, including cardiovascular surgery, organ transplantation, trauma, post-partum hemorrhage and percutaneous coronary intervention. While standard tests like prothrombin time, partial thromboplastin time and platelet count have limited ability to reveal a patient’s risk for bleeding, they do not provide information on the patient’s risk for thrombosis. In addition, these routine tests do not provide specific data about clot quality or stability. As a result of these limitations, clinicians are increasingly utilizing advanced hemostasis testing to provide more information about a patient’s hemostasis status, resulting in improved clinical decision-making. In addition, advanced hemostasis testing supports hospital efforts to reduce the risks, complications and costs associated with unnecessary blood component transfusions.

Haemonetics’ TEG and HAS hemostasis analyzer systems are advanced diagnostic tools that provide a comprehensive assessment of a patient’s overall hemostasis. This information enables clinicians to decide the most appropriate clinical treatment for the patient to minimize blood loss and reduce clotting risk. For example, TEG analyzers have been used to support clinical decision making in open cardiovascular surgery and organ transplantation, becoming the standard of care in liver transplants. In more recent years, interest has grown into the utilization of TEG in trauma and other procedures in which the risk of hemorrhage and thrombosis are high.

Geographically, TEG systems have achieved the highest market penetration in North America, Europe and China. However, there are considerable growth opportunities in these as well as other markets, as TEG systems become more established as the standard of care around the world. The HAS-100 and HAS-300 are currently commercialized in China.

Cell Salvage Market - In recent years, more efficient blood use and less invasive surgeries have reduced demand for autotransfusion in these procedures and contributed to intense competition in mature markets, while increased access to healthcare in emerging economies has provided new markets and sources of growth. Orthopedic procedures have seen similar changes with improved blood management practices, including the use of tranexamic acid to treat and prevent postoperative bleeding, significantly reducing the number of transfusions and autotransfusion. Geographically, the Cell Saver has achieved the highest market penetration in North America, Europe and Japan. We believe there are growth opportunities in Asia Pacific as the use of autotransfusion is becoming accepted as a standard of care.

Transfusion Management Market - Revenues from BloodTrack have increased in the U.S. and Europe in recent years as hospitals seek means to improve efficiencies and meet compliance guidelines for tracking and dispositioning blood components to patients. SafeTrace Tx’s leading market share in the U.S. remains steady and in fiscal 2021 launched in the United Kingdom. We continue to explore opportunities to expand the portfolio internationally.

Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. Fiscal years 2024 and 2023 included 52 weeks with each quarter having 13 weeks.

Net revenues for fiscal 2024 increased 12.0% compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effects of foreign exchange, net revenues increased 12.7% compared with fiscal 2023. Revenue increases in our Plasma and Hospital businesses, primarily related to volume and price, drove the overall increase in revenue during the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024.

Operating income increased 5.7% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023, primarily due to increased revenues in Plasma and Hospital and savings from the Operational Excellence Program (“2020 Program”), partially offset by spend on portfolio rationalization initiatives, continuous growth investments, digital transformation costs incurred as part of the upgrade of our enterprise resource planning system and transaction and integration costs related to the acquisition of OpSens.

Management’s Use of Non-GAAP Measures

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to financial measures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), to monitor the financial performance of the business, make informed business decisions, establish budgets and forecast future results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not a substitute for, our reported financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Constant currency growth, a non-GAAP financial measure, measures the change in revenue between the current and prior year periods using a constant currency conversion rate. We have provided this non-GAAP financial measure because we believe it provides meaningful information regarding our results on a consistent and comparable basis for the periods presented.

International Operations and the Impact of Foreign Exchange

Our principal operations are in the United States, Europe, Japan and other parts of Asia. Our products are marketed in approximately 90 countries around the world through a combination of our direct sales force and independent distributors and agents.

The percentage of revenue generated in our principal operating regions is summarized below:

	Fiscal Year
	2024		2023
United States	74.1	%	72.1	%
Japan	4.5	%	5.2	%
Europe	12.2	%	13.4	%
Rest of Asia	8.2	%	8.9	%
Other	1.0	%	0.4	%
Total	100.0	%	100.0	%

International sales are generally conducted in local currencies, primarily Japanese Yen, Euro and Chinese Yuan. Our results of operations are impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates, particularly in the value of the Yen and Euro, relative to the U.S. Dollar. We have placed foreign currency hedges on certain foreign currencies to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations.

Please see the section entitled “Foreign Exchange” in this discussion for a more complete explanation of how foreign currency affects our business and our strategy for managing this exposure.

Plasma

Plasma revenue increased 13.9% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effect of foreign exchange, Plasma revenue increased 13.8% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. This revenue increase was primarily driven by volume and price.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, we amended our supply agreement with CSL, which CSL had previously notified us of its intent not to renew and was initially set to expire in June 2022, to allow CSL to continue to use our PCS2 plasma collection system devices and purchase disposable plasmapheresis kits on a non-exclusive basis through December 2023. During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, we further amended our supply agreement with CSL to extend the term through December 2025. CSL has a minimum purchase commitment under the non-exclusive supply agreement of approximately $85 million in fiscal 2025.

Blood Center

Blood Center revenue decreased 1.4% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effect of foreign exchange, Blood Center revenue increased 1.0% during fiscal 2024. The decrease in Blood Center’s reported revenue was primarily driven by declines in whole blood disposables and the impact of foreign exchange, partially offset by an increase in apheresis disposables.

Hospital

Hospital revenue increased 19.8% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effect of foreign exchange, Hospital revenue increased 20.3% during fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to Vascular Closure revenue and Hemostasis Management disposables revenue, as well as increases in Transfusion Management revenue.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased 8.6% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effects of foreign exchange, research and development expenses increased 8.1% during fiscal 2024. The increase in fiscal 2024 was primarily due to increased investments into product innovation as well as increased costs associated with the acquisition of OpSens.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 14.6% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effects of foreign exchange, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 14.5% during fiscal 2024. The increase in fiscal 2024 was primarily driven by spend on portfolio rationalization initiatives, continuous growth investments, digital transformation costs incurred as part of the upgrade of our enterprise resource planning system and transaction and integration costs related to the acquisition of OpSens, partially offset by operating leverage.

Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets

We recognized amortization expense related to our acquired intangible assets of $32.0 million and $32.6 million during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. The decrease in fiscal 2024 is primarily the result of intangible assets that became fully amortized during fiscal 2023, partially offset by amortization of intangibles acquired as part of the OpSens acquisition during fiscal 2024.

Gains on Divestiture and sale of assets

We recognized gains on divestiture and sale of assets of $2.0 million and $0.4 million during fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023, respectively. During fiscal 2024, we recognized a gain on the sale of certain licenses and during fiscal 2023, we recognized a gain for contingent consideration earned on the sale of U.S. blood donor management software.

Impairment of Intangible Assets

We recognized a $10.4 million impairment of intangible assets in fiscal 2024 related to the enicor GmbH acquisition completed in fiscal 2021 within our Hospital business unit.

Interest and Other Expense, Net

Interest and other expenses decreased 11.0% during fiscal 2024 as compared with fiscal 2023. Without the effects of foreign exchange, interest and other expenses decreased 10.1% during fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by increased

39

interest income on investments due to higher interest rates, lower interest paid on interest rate swaps due to market and rate volatility, partially offset by higher interest incurred on our credit facility.

Income Taxes

	Fiscal Year
	2024		2023		% Increase/(Decrease)
Reported income tax rate	22.6	%	18.4	%	4.2	%

Reported Tax Rate

We conduct business globally and report our results of operations in a number of foreign jurisdictions in addition to the U.S. Our reported tax rate is impacted by the jurisdictional mix of earnings in any given period as the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate have tax rates that differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate.

We have assessed, on a jurisdictional basis, the available means of recovering deferred tax assets, including the ability to carry-back net operating losses, the existence of reversing temporary differences, the availability of tax planning strategies and available sources of future taxable income. As of March 30, 2024, we maintain a valuation allowance against certain U.S. state and foreign tax credit carryforwards that are not more-likely-than-not realizable as well as a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets of certain foreign subsidiaries.

For the year ended March 30, 2024, we recorded income tax expense of $34.3 million on our worldwide pre-tax income of $151.9 million, resulting in a reported tax rate of 22.6%. Our effective tax rate for the year ended March 30, 2024 is higher than our effective tax rate of 18.4% for fiscal 2023, primarily due to the release of valuation allowance related to U.S. state deferred tax assets in fiscal 2023 that did not recur in fiscal 2024, partially offset by a tax benefit recorded in fiscal 2024 related to the impact of foreign tax law changes, an increase in stock compensation tax benefit and an unfavorable impact of the jurisdictional mix of earnings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table contains certain key performance indicators we believe depict our liquidity and cash flow position:

(Dollars in thousands)	March 30, 2024		April 1, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents	$	178,800	$	284,466
Working capital	$	468,520	$	517,906
Current ratio	2.6		3.1
Net debt position(1)	$	(628,993)	$	(481,420)
Days sales outstanding (DSO)	54		53
Inventory turnover	1.7		1.8
(1)Net debt position is the sum of cash and cash equivalents less total debt.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, internally generated cash flow from operations and our senior unsecured revolving credit facility. We believe these sources are sufficient to fund our cash requirements over at least the next twelve months and to meet our known long-term cash requirements, including our convertible senior notes due March 1, 2026. Our expected cash outlays relate primarily to acquisitions, investments, capital expenditures, including enhancements to our North American manufacturing facilities, share repurchases, portfolio rationalization initiatives and cash principal and interest payments under our revised credit agreements.

The Company has $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due in 2026, or the 2026 Notes. The 2026 Notes are governed by the terms of the Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The total net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and debt issuance costs, were approximately $486.7 million. The 2026 Notes will mature on March 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased. The 2026 Notes have an effective interest rate of 0.5% as of March 30, 2024.

40

As of March 30, 2024, we had $178.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, the majority of which is held in the U.S. or in countries from which it can be repatriated to the U.S. On July 26, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance our prior credit agreement entered into on June 15, 2018, which consisted of a $350.0 million term loan and a $350.0 million revolving credit facility (together, as amended from time to time, the “2018 Credit Facilities”), and extend the maturity date through June 2025. The amended and restated credit agreement includes a $280.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which have been used to retire the balance of the term loan under the 2018 Credit Facilities, and a $420.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2022 Revised Credit Facilities”). Loans under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. Under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain certain leverage and interest coverage ratios specified in the amended and restated credit agreement as well as other customary non-financial affirmative and negative covenants.

As of March 30, 2024, $262.5 million was outstanding under the term loan with an effective interest rate of 6.9% and $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility with an effective interest rate of 6.8%. We also had $18.7 million of uncommitted operating lines of credit to fund our global operations under which there were no outstanding borrowings as of March 30, 2024. Additionally, the Company was in compliance with the leverage and interest coverage ratios specified in the credit agreement as well as all other bank covenants as of March 30, 2024.

In April 2024, subsequent to the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through April 2029. The second amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $250.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which, along with $12.5 million of cash on hand, have been used to retire the balance of the term loan under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, and a $750.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2024 Revised Credit Facilities”), which constitutes a $330.0 million increase from the revolving credit facility under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities. Loans under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities will initially bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0.0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. The 2024 Revised Credit Facilities mature on April 30, 2029. The principal amount of the term loan under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities amortizes quarterly through the maturity date at a rate of 2.5% for the first three years following the closing date, 5.0% for the fourth year following the closing date and 7.5% for the fifth year following the closing date, with the unpaid balance due at maturity. As of April 30, 2024, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility was $230.0 million, which increased from the end of fiscal 2024, primarily due to borrowings associated with the acquisition of Attune Medical on April 1, 2024.

The Company has scheduled principal payments, adjusted for the impact of the debt refinancing in April 2024, of $17.3 million required during fiscal 2025.

During fiscal 2022, our Board of Directors approved a revised Operational Excellence Program. We estimate that we will incur aggregate charges between $85 million and $95 million in connection with the Operational Excellence Program. These charges, the majority of which will result in cash outlays, including severance and other employee costs, will be incurred as the specific actions required to execute these initiatives are identified and approved and are expected to be substantially completed by the end of fiscal 2025. During the fiscal years ended March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company incurred $9.8 million and $11.5 million, respectively, of restructuring and restructuring related costs under this program.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $181.8 million during fiscal 2024, a decrease of $91.3 million as compared with fiscal 2023. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of replenishment of NexSys PCS devices during fiscal 2024.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $322.4 million during fiscal 2024, an increase of $178.6 million as compared with fiscal 2023. The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of the acquisition of OpSens in fiscal 2024, partially offset by lower capital expenditures driven by NexSys PCS device placements that occurred during fiscal 2023 and decreased cash outflows for other investments compared to fiscal 2023.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $38.2 million during fiscal 2024, an increase of $138.5 million as compared with fiscal 2023, primarily due to the borrowings under the revolving credit facility in fiscal 2024 in connection with the OpSens acquisition as well as cash outflows in fiscal 2023 for share repurchases and higher contingent consideration payments.

Contractual Obligations

A summary of our contractual and commercial commitments as of March 30, 2024, which includes the impact of the April 2024 refinancing of the term loan under our 2024 Revised Credit Facilities, is as follows:

(1) Interest payments reflect the contractual interest payments on outstanding debt related to the term loan under our 2024 Revised Credit Facilities and exclude the impact of interest rate swap agreements. Interest payments are projected using interest rates in effect as of April 30, 2024, the date the term loan was refinanced. Certain of these projected interest payments may differ in the future based on changes in market interest rates.
(2) Includes amounts we are committed to spend on purchase orders entered in the normal course of business for capital equipment as well as commitments with contractors for the manufacture of certain disposable products and equipment. The majority of our operating expense spending does not require any advance commitment.

The above table does not reflect our long-term liabilities associated with unrecognized tax benefits of $2.9 million recorded in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. We cannot reasonably make a reliable estimate of the period in which we expect to settle these long-term liabilities due to factors outside of our control, such as tax examinations.

Subsequent to our fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Attune Medical that includes additional contingent consideration we may be required to pay in the future based on sales growth over the next three years and the achievement of certain other milestones.

Concentration of Credit Risk

While approximately 48% of our revenue during fiscal 2024 was generated by our ten largest customers, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are generally limited due to our large number of customers and their diversity across many geographic areas. Certain markets and industries, however, can expose us to concentrations of credit risk. For example, in the Plasma business unit, sales are concentrated with several large customers. As a result, accounts receivable extended to any one of these biopharmaceutical customers can be significant at any point in time. In addition, a portion of our trade accounts receivable outside the U.S. include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays and local economic conditions. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries’ national economies.

We have not incurred significant losses on trade accounts or other receivables. We continually evaluate all receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement practices. If the financial condition of customers or the countries’ healthcare systems deteriorate such that their ability to make payments is uncertain, allowances may be required in future periods.

Legal Proceedings

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, we record a liability in our consolidated financial statements for legal matters when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount may be reasonably estimated. Actual settlements may be different than estimated and could have a material impact on our consolidated earnings, financial position and/or cash flows. For a discussion of our material legal proceedings refer to Note 15, Commitments & Contingencies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Inflation

We continue to monitor inflationary pressures generally and raw materials indices that may affect our procurement and production costs. Increases in the price of petroleum derivatives could result in corresponding increases in our costs to procure plastic raw materials. Historically, we have been able to limit the impact of the effects of inflation by improving our manufacturing and purchasing efficiencies, by increasing employee productivity and by adjusting the selling prices of products, but we may not be able to fully mitigate these increases in our operational costs in the future.

Foreign Exchange

During fiscal 2024, 25.9% of our sales were generated outside the U.S., generally in foreign currencies, yet our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar. We also incur certain manufacturing, marketing and selling costs in international markets in local currency. Our primary foreign currency exposures relate to sales denominated in Japanese Yen, Euro and Chinese Yuan. We also have foreign currency exposure related to manufacturing and other operational costs denominated in Swiss Francs, Canadian Dollars, Mexican Pesos and Malaysian Ringgit. The Yen, Euro and Yuan sales exposure is partially mitigated by costs and expenses for foreign operations and sourcing products denominated in foreign currencies.

Since our foreign currency denominated Yen, Euro and Yuan sales exceed the foreign currency denominated costs, whenever the U.S. Dollar strengthens relative to the Yen, Euro or Yuan, there is an adverse effect on our results of operations and, conversely, whenever the U.S. Dollar weakens relative to the Yen, Euro or Yuan, there is a positive effect on our results of operations. For Swiss Francs, Canadian Dollars, Mexican Pesos and Malaysian Ringgit, our primary cash flows relate to product costs or costs and expenses of local operations. Whenever the U.S. Dollar strengthens relative to these foreign currencies, there is a positive effect on our results of operations. Conversely, whenever the U.S. Dollar weakens relative to these currencies, there is an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We have a program in place that is designed to mitigate our exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. That program includes the use of derivative financial instruments to minimize, for a period of time, the unforeseen impact on our financial results from changes in foreign exchange rates. We utilize forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the anticipated cash flows from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, primarily Japanese Yen and Euro, and to a lesser extent Swiss

43

Franc and Mexican Peso. This does not eliminate the volatility of foreign exchange rates, but because we generally enter into forward contracts one year out, rates are fixed for a one-year period, thereby facilitating financial planning and resource allocation. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The final impact of currency fluctuations on the results of operations is dependent on the local currency amounts hedged and the actual local currency results.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. While all of these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and/or estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. We consider an estimate to be a “critical accounting estimate” when (i) the nature of the estimate is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and (ii) the impact of the estimate on financial condition or operating performance is material. The accounting policies and estimates identified as critical are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price, which includes estimates of variable consideration related to rebates, product returns and volume discounts. These reserves, which are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales, are recorded as a reduction of revenue and a current liability. Our estimates take into consideration historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect our best estimates of the amount of consideration to which we are entitled based on the terms of the contract. The amount of variable consideration included in the net sales price is limited to the amount that is probable not to result in a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized in a future period. Revenue recognized in the current period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material. If we are unable to estimate the expected rebates reasonably, we record a liability for the maximum potential rebate or discount that could be earned. In circumstances where we provide upfront rebate payments to customers, we capitalize the rebate payments and amortize the resulting asset as a reduction of revenue using a systematic method over the life of the contract. Refer to Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4, Revenue, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Although we use consistent methodologies in developing the assumptions and estimates underlying the fair value calculations used in our impairment tests, these estimates are uncertain by nature and can vary from actual results. The use of alternative valuation assumptions, including estimated revenue projections, growth rates, cash flows and discount rates could result in different fair value estimates.

Future events that could have a negative impact on the levels of excess fair value over carrying value of our reporting units include, but are not limited to, the following:

•Decreases in estimated market sizes or market growth rates due to greater-than-expected declines in procedural volumes, pricing pressures, product actions and/or competitive technology developments,

•Declines in our market share and penetration assumptions due to increased competition, an inability to develop or launch new and next-generation products and technology features in line with our commercialization strategies and market and/or regulatory conditions that may cause significant launch delays or product recalls,

•Decreases in our forecasted profitability due to an inability to implement successfully and achieve timely and sustainable cost improvement measures consistent with our expectations,

44

•Changes in our reporting units or in the structure of our business as a result of future reorganizations, acquisitions or divestitures of assets or businesses and

•Increases in our market-participant risk-adjusted weighted average cost of capital and increases in our market-participant tax rate and/or changes in tax laws or macroeconomic conditions.

Negative changes in one or more of these factors, among others, could result in future impairment charges.

We review intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain conditions arise to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, or that a change in the remaining useful life is required. Conditions indicating that an impairment exists include but are not limited to a change in the competitive landscape, internal decisions to pursue new or different technology strategies, a loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the marketplace including prices paid for our products or the size of the market for our products. Refer Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 10, Goodwill & Intangible Assets, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

Inventory Provisions

We base our provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory primarily on our estimates of forecasted net sales. A significant change in the timing or level of demand for our products as compared with forecasted amounts may result in recording additional provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory in the future. Additionally, uncertain timing of next-generation product approvals, variability in product launch strategies, product recalls and variation in product utilization all affect our estimates related to excess, expired and obsolete inventory.

Income Taxes

The income tax provision is calculated for all jurisdictions in which we operate. The income tax provision process involves calculating current taxes due and assessing temporary differences arising from items that are taxable or deductible in different periods for tax and accounting purposes and are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for realizability and a valuation allowance is maintained for the portion of our deferred tax assets that are not more-likely-than-not realizable. All available evidence, both positive and negative, has been considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed against the deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 6, Income Taxes, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information and discussion of our income tax provision and balances.

We file income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which we operate. We record a liability for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. Our financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of such positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. We record a liability for the portion of unrecognized tax benefits claimed that we have determined are not more-likely-than-not realizable. These tax reserves have been established based on management’s assessment as to the potential exposure attributable to our uncertain tax positions as well as interest and penalties attributable to these uncertain tax positions. All tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments are made as events occur that result in changes in judgment.

Contingencies

We may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, patent infringement, product liability and environmental matters. Accruals recorded for various contingencies including legal proceedings, employee related litigation, self-insurance and other claims are based on judgment, the probability of losses and, where applicable, the consideration of opinions of internal and/or external legal counsel and actuarially determined estimates. When a loss is probable and a range of loss is established but a best estimate cannot be made, we record the minimum loss contingency amount. These estimates are often initially developed substantially earlier than the ultimate loss is known and the estimates are reevaluated each accounting period, as additional information is available. When we are initially unable to develop a best estimate of loss, we record the minimum amount of loss, which could be zero. As information becomes known, an additional loss provision is recorded when either a best estimate can be made or the minimum loss amount is increased. When events result in an expectation of a more favorable outcome than previously expected, our best estimate is changed to a lower amount. With respect to the specific legal proceedings and claims described below, unless otherwise noted, the amount or range of possible losses is not reasonably estimable. There can be no assurance that the settlement, resolution, or other outcome of one or more matters, including the matters set forth below, during any subsequent reporting period will not

45

have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for that period or on the Company’s financial condition.

Business Combinations

We record tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations under the purchase method of accounting. Amounts paid for each acquisition are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the dates of acquisition. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on detailed valuations that use information and assumptions including forecasted cash flows, revenues attributable to existing technology and discount rates. When estimating the significant assumptions to be used in the valuation we included a consideration of current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business and other relevant factors. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. We allocate any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed to goodwill.

Contingent consideration is recorded at fair value as measured on the date of acquisition using an appropriate valuation model, such as the Monte Carlo simulation model. The value recorded is based on estimates of future financial projections under various potential scenarios, in which the model runs many simulations based on comparable companies’ growth rates and their implied volatility. Our estimates of forecasted revenues in the earn out period include a consideration of current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business and other relevant factors. These cash flow projections are discounted with a risk adjusted rate. Each quarter until such contingent amounts are earned, the fair value of the liability is remeasured at each reporting period and adjusted as a component of operating expenses based on changes to the underlying assumptions. The estimates used to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration liability are subject to significant judgment and given the inherent uncertainties in making these estimates, actual results are likely to differ from the amounts originally recorded and could be materially different.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposures relative to market risk are due to foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

See the section above entitled Foreign Exchange for a discussion of how foreign currency affects our business. It is our policy to minimize, for a period of time, the unforeseen impact on our financial results of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by using derivative financial instruments known as forward contracts to hedge anticipated cash flows from forecasted foreign currency denominated sales and costs. We do not use the financial instruments for speculative or trading activities.

We estimate the change in the fair value of all forward contracts assuming both a 10% strengthening and weakening of the U.S. Dollar relative to all other major currencies. As of March 30, 2024, in the event of a 10% strengthening of the U.S. Dollar, the change in fair value of all forward contracts would result in a $4.4 million increase in the fair value of the forward contracts, whereas a 10% weakening of the U.S. Dollar would result in a $5.4 million decrease in the fair value of the forward contracts.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to changes in interest rates is associated with borrowings under our credit facilities, all of which is variable rate debt. Total outstanding debt under our senior unsecured term loan as of March 30, 2024 was $262.5 million with an effective interest rate of 6.9% based on prevailing Term SOFR rates. An increase of 100 basis points in Term SOFR rates would result in additional annual interest expense of $0.5 million. In addition, as of March 30, 2024, there was $50.0 million outstanding on our senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an effective interest rate of 6.8%, also based on prevailing Term SOFR rates. As of March 30, 2024, the notional amount on our two active interest rate swap agreements to effectively convert borrowings under our 2022 Revised Credit Facilities from a variable rate to a fixed rate were $211.4 million. These interest rate swaps are intended to mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and qualify for hedge accounting treatment as cash flow hedges.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Haemonetics Corporation

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Haemonetics Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 30, 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 March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 30, 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 March 30, 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 May 20, 2024 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 Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter 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 matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

	Business combination
Description of the Matter	As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, during fiscal year 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of OpSens Inc. for a purchase price of $254.5 million. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. The financial statement accounts primarily affected by this transaction were intangible assets and goodwill. Auditing the Company’s accounting for the business combination was complex due to the significant estimation required by management to determine the fair value of certain identified intangible assets, which totaled $172 million and principally consisted of developed technology. The significant estimation was primarily due to the judgmental nature of the inputs to the valuation model used to measure the fair value of the developed technology intangible asset, as well as the sensitivity of the respective fair value to the underlying significant assumptions. The Company used the income approach to measure the fair value of the intangible asset. The significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the intangible asset included discount rates and certain assumptions that form the basis of the forecasted results, specifically certain revenue growth rates and EBITDA margin. When estimating the significant assumptions to be used in the valuation the Company considered current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business, and other relevant factors. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit	We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of the controls over the Company’s accounting for the business combination. We tested controls over the valuation of intangible assets, including the valuation models and underlying assumptions used to develop such estimates. To test the fair value of the acquired intangible assets, our audit procedures included, among others, evaluating the significant assumptions used, and the testing of the completeness and accuracy of underlying data. We tested the valuation models used to value the acquired intangible assets. Our testing procedures over the significant assumptions included, among others, comparing them to current industry, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business and to other relevant factors. We also performed sensitivity analyses of the significant assumptions to evaluate the change in the fair value resulting from changes in the assumptions. In addition, we involved valuation professionals to assist in our evaluation of the methodology, computations, and certain significant assumptions used by the Company within the valuation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Haemonetics is a global healthcare company dedicated to providing a suite of innovative medical technology solutions that improve the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of care. We challenge ourselves to think big and make new possibilities a reality, so that our customers can make it matter for patients, every single day. Our technology addresses important medical markets: blood and plasma component collection, the surgical suite and hospital transfusion services. When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Haemonetics” and the “Company” mean Haemonetics Corporation.

Haemonetics manages its business in three principal reporting segments: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. For that purpose, “Plasma” includes plasma collection devices and disposables, donor management software and supporting software solutions sold to plasma customers. “Blood Center” includes blood collection and processing devices and disposables for red cells, platelets and whole blood. “Hospital” is comprised of Interventional Technologies, which includes vascular closure devices and sensor-guided technologies, and Blood Management Technologies, which includes devices and methodologies for measuring coagulation characteristics of blood, specialized blood cell processing systems and disposables, surgical blood salvage systems and blood transfusion management software.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements present separately the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All amounts presented, except per share amounts, are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. There were no material recognized or unrecognized subsequent events except as described in Note 3, Acquisitions, Divestitures and Strategic Investments, Note 9, Property, Plant & Equipment and Note 12, Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fiscal Year

Haemonetics’ fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. Fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 include 52 weeks with each quarter having 13 weeks.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts including those of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, we assess our strategic investments to determine whether they meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and if so, whether the Company has controlling financial interest. Controlling financial interest occurs if the Company has both the power to direct activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company’s strategic investments did not meet the controlling financial interest criteria, as such no VIEs were consolidated during fiscal 2024, 2023 or 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from the amounts derived from its estimates and assumptions. The Company considers estimates to be critical if they are required to make assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time of estimation or if materially different estimates could have been made or it is reasonably likely that the accounting estimate will change from period to period. The

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

following are areas considered to be critical and require management’s judgment: revenue recognition, inventory provisions, intangible asset and goodwill valuation, legal and other judgmental accruals and income taxes.

Contingencies

The Company may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, patent infringement, product liability and environmental matters. Accruals recorded for various contingencies including legal proceedings, employee related litigation, self-insurance and other claims are based on judgment, the probability of losses and, where applicable, the consideration of opinions of internal and/or external legal counsel and actuarially determined estimates. When a loss is probable and a range of loss is established but a best estimate cannot be made, the Company records the minimum loss contingency amount, which could be zero. These estimates are often initially developed substantially earlier than the ultimate loss is known and the estimates are reevaluated each accounting period, as additional information is available. As information becomes known, an additional loss provision is recorded when either a best estimate can be made or the minimum loss amount is increased. When events result in an expectation of a more favorable outcome than previously expected, the best estimate is changed to a lower amount.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue recognition policy is to recognize revenues from product sales, software and services in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2014-19, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of the Company’s goods or services. The Company considers revenue to be earned when all of the following criteria are met: it has a contract with a customer that creates enforceable rights and obligations; promised products or services are identified; the transaction price, or the consideration the Company expects to receive for transferring goods or providing services, is determinable and it has transferred control of the promised items to the customer. A promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer is identified as a performance obligation. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Some of the Company’s contracts have multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the estimated standalone selling prices of the good or service in the contract. For goods or services for which observable standalone selling prices are not available, the Company uses an expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

Product Revenues

The majority of the Company’s performance obligations related to product sales are satisfied at a point in time. Product revenue consists of the sale of its disposable products and the related equipment. The Company’s performance obligation related to product sales is satisfied upon shipment or delivery to the customer based on the specified terms set forth in the customer contract. Shipping and handling activities performed after a customer obtains control of the good are treated as fulfillment activities and are not considered to be a separate performance obligation. Revenue is recognized over time for maintenance plans provided to customers that provide services beyond the Company’s standard warranty period. Payment terms between customers related to product sales vary by the type of customer, country of sale, and the products or services offered and could result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

For product sales to distributors, the Company recognizes revenue for both equipment and disposables upon shipment to distributors, which is when its performance obligations are complete. The Company's standard contracts with its distributors state that title to the equipment passes to the distributors at point of shipment to a distributor’s location. The distributors are responsible for shipment to the end customer along with any installation, training and acceptance of the equipment by the end customer. Payments from distributors are not contingent upon resale of the product.

The Company also places equipment at customer sites. While the Company retains ownership of this equipment, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time provided they meet certain agreed to conditions. The Company recovers the cost of providing the equipment from the sale of its disposables.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Software and Other Revenues

To a lesser extent, the Company enters into other types of contracts including certain software licensing arrangements to provide software solutions to support its plasma, blood collection and hospital customers. A portion of its software sales are perpetual licenses typically accompanied by significant implementation services related to software customization as well as other professional and technical services. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of perpetual licenses and related customization services over time (the Company is creating or enhancing an asset that the customer controls) using an input method which requires it to make estimates of the extent of progress toward completion of the contract. When the Company provides other services, including in some instances hosting, technical support and maintenance, it recognizes these fees and charges over time (the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits), as performance obligations for these services are satisfied during the contract period. Certain of the Company’s software licensing arrangements are term-based licenses that include a per-collection or a usage-based fee related to the use of the license and the related technical support and hosting services. For these usage-based arrangements, the Company applies the revenue recognition exception resulting in revenue recognition occurring upon the later of actual usage or satisfaction of the related performance obligations. The payment terms for software licensing arrangements vary by customer pursuant to the terms set forth in the customer contract and result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Significant Judgments

Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price, which includes estimates of variable consideration related to rebates, product returns and volume discounts. These reserves, which are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales, are recorded as a reduction of revenue and a current liability. The Company’s estimates take into consideration historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the contract. The amount of variable consideration included in the net sales price is limited to the amount that is probable not to result in a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized in a future period. Revenue recognized in the current period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material. If the Company is unable to estimate the expected rebates reasonably, it records a liability for the maximum potential rebate or discount that could be earned. In circumstances where the Company provides upfront rebate payments to customers, it capitalizes the rebate payments and amortizes the resulting asset as a reduction of revenue using a systematic method over the life of the contract.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and contract assets, as well as customer advances, customer deposits and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference in timing between billing and revenue recognition primarily occurs in software licensing arrangements, resulting in contract assets and contract liabilities.

Practical Expedients

The Company elected not to disclose the value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. When applicable, the Company has also elected to use the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it is expected, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange at year-end while sales and expenses are translated at an average rate in effect during the year. The net effect of these translation adjustments is shown in the accompanying financial statements as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, including those resulting from intercompany transactions, are charged directly to earnings and included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income. The impact of foreign exchange on long-term intercompany loans, for which repayment has not been scheduled or planned, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet.

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include various instruments such as money market funds, U.S. government obligations and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less at date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair market value. As of March 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of investments in United States Government Agency and institutional money market funds.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company establishes a specific allowance for customers when it is probable that they will not be able to meet their financial obligations. Customer accounts are reviewed individually on a regular basis and reserves are established as deemed appropriate. The Company also maintains a general reserve using a percentage that is established based upon the age of its receivables and its collection history. The Company establishes allowances for balances not yet due and past due accounts based on past experience.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include the cost of material, labor and manufacturing overhead. Cost is determined with the first-in, first-out method. The Company has based its provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory primarily on its estimates of forecasted net sales. Significant changes in the timing or level of demand for the Company’s products result in recording additional provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory. Additionally, uncertain timing of next-generation product approvals, variability in product launch strategies, non-cancelable purchase commitments, product recalls and variation in product utilization all affect the Company’s estimates related to excess, expired and obsolete inventory.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization by charges to operations using the straight-line method in amounts estimated to recover the cost of the building and improvements, equipment and furniture and fixtures over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Classification	Estimated Useful Lives
Building	30-40 Years
Building improvements	5-20 Years
Plant equipment and machinery	3-15 Years
Office equipment and information technology	3-10 Years
Haemonetics equipment	3-7 Years

The Company evaluates the depreciation periods of property, plant and equipment to determine whether events or circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. All property, plant and equipment are also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

The Company’s installed base of devices includes devices owned by the Company and devices sold to the customer. The asset on its balance sheet classified as Haemonetics equipment consists of medical devices installed at customer sites but owned by Haemonetics. Generally, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time as long as they meet the conditions the Company has established, which among other things, generally include one or more of the following:

•Purchase and consumption of a certain level of disposable products

•Payment of monthly rental fees

•An asset utilization performance metric, such as performing a minimum level of procedures per month per device

Consistent with the impairment tests noted below for other intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company reviews Haemonetics equipment and the related useful lives of such equipment at least once a year, or more frequently if certain conditions arise, to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. To conduct these reviews, the Company estimates the future amount and timing of demand for disposables used

57

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

with these devices, from which it generates revenues. The Company also considers product life cycle in its evaluation of useful life and recoverability. Changes in expected demand can result in additional depreciation expense, which is classified as cost of goods sold. Any significant unanticipated changes in demand could impact the value of the Company’s devices and its reported operating results.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their useful lives or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed to operations as incurred. When the repair or maintenance costs significantly extend the life of the asset, these costs may be capitalized. When equipment and improvements are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is included in the consolidated statements of income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is instead reviewed for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for each of its reporting units.

A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company determines its reporting units by first identifying its operating segments and then by assessing whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company aggregates components within an operating segment that have similar economic characteristics. The Company’s reportable segments and reporting units are as follows: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. When the Company completes business combinations, the Company assigns goodwill to the reporting units that it expects to benefit from the respective business combination at the time of acquisition.

Under ASC Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment entities perform their goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount by either performing a qualitative or quantitative assessment. The Company may elect to perform only a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test when certain qualitative criteria are met that indicate that it is more likely than not the fair values of each reporting unit exceed their carrying values.

If the Company elects to perform a quantitative test, it determines carrying values of each reporting unit by allocating assets and liabilities, including corporate assets, which relate to a reporting unit’s operations and would be considered in determining its fair value, to the individual reporting units. The Company allocates assets and liabilities not directly related to a specific reporting unit, but from which the reporting unit benefits, based primarily on the respective revenue contribution of each reporting unit.

In addition, when performing a quantitative test, the Company uses the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value of each of its reporting units in preparing its goodwill impairment assessments. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting these after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The Company selected this method as being the most meaningful in preparing its goodwill assessments because the use of the income approach typically generates a more precise measurement of fair value than the market approach. In applying the income approach to its accounting for goodwill, the Company makes assumptions about the amount and timing of future expected cash flows, terminal value growth rates and appropriate discount rates. The amount and timing of future cash flows within the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis is based on its most recent operational budgets, long range strategic plans and other estimates. The terminal value growth rate is used to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the last projected period in the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis and reflects the Company’s best estimates for stable, perpetual growth of its reporting units. The Company uses estimates of market-participant risk adjusted weighted average cost of capital as a basis for determining the discount rates to apply to its reporting units’ future expected cash flows. The Company corroborates the valuations that arose from the discounted cash flow approach by performing both a market multiple valuation and by reconciling the aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its market capitalization at the time of the test. An impairment charge, if any, would then be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

58

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test whereas in fiscal 2023 and 2022, the Company performed quantitative assessments. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the results of the goodwill impairment test performed indicated that the estimated fair value of all of its reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values and there were no reporting units at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

The Company reviews intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment indicators at least annually or more frequently if certain conditions arise to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, or that a change in the remaining useful life is required. Conditions indicating that an impairment exists include, but are not limited to, a change in the competitive landscape, internal decisions to pursue new or different technology strategies, a loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the marketplace including prices paid for its products or the size of the market for its products.

When an impairment indicator exists, the Company tests the intangible asset for recoverability. For purposes of the recoverability test, the Company groups its amortizable intangible assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows if the intangible asset does not generate cash flows independent of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of the intangible asset (asset group) exceeds the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the intangible asset (asset group), the Company will write the carrying value down to the fair value in the period identified.

The Company generally calculates the fair value of its intangible assets as the present value of estimated future cash flows it expects to generate from the asset using a risk-adjusted discount rate. In determining its estimated future cash flows associated with its intangible assets, the Company uses estimates and assumptions about future revenue contributions, cost structures and remaining useful lives of the asset (asset group).

If the Company determines the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life should be reduced based on its expected use of the asset, the remaining carrying amount of the asset is amortized prospectively over the revised estimated useful life.

The Company has in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) intangible assets with indefinite lives. IPR&D assets are not amortized. The Company reviews these assets for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for its IPR&D assets. The Company makes assumptions about future cash flows, terminal value growth, costs for completion and appropriate discount rates. The Company elected qualitative assessments in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, which all indicated that the estimated fair value of the in-process research and development intangible asset exceeded its carrying value and it was not at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed

ASC Topic 985-20, Software - Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed, specifies that costs incurred internally in researching and developing a computer software product should be charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs should be capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers, at which point capitalized costs are amortized over their estimated useful life of 5 to 10 years. Technological feasibility is established when it has a detailed design of the software and when research and development activities on the underlying device, if applicable, are completed. The Company capitalizes costs associated with both software that it sells as a separate product and software that is embedded in a device.

The Company reviews the net realizable value of capitalized assets periodically to assess the recoverability of amounts capitalized. There were no impairment charges recorded during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022. In the future, the net realizable value may be adversely affected by the loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the market place, which could result in an impairment being recorded.

Other Long-Term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities represent items that are not payable or expected to settle within the next twelve months.

Research and Development Expenses

All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Advertising Costs

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income. Advertising expenses were $7.1 million, $7.2 million and $4.4 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income Taxes

The income tax provision is calculated for all jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The income tax provision process involves calculating current taxes due and assessing temporary differences arising from items that are taxable or deductible in different periods for tax and accounting purposes and are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for realizability and a valuation allowance is maintained for the portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets that are not more-likely-than-not realizable. All available evidence, both positive and negative, has been considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed against the deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 6, Income Taxes, for further information and discussion of the Company’s income tax provision and balances.

The Company files income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The Company’s financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of such positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Company records a liability for the portion of unrecognized tax benefits claimed that it has determined are not more-likely-than-not realizable. These tax reserves have been established based on management’s assessment as to the potential exposure attributable to the Company’s uncertain tax positions as well as interest and penalties attributable to these uncertain tax positions. All tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments are made as events occur that result in changes in judgment.

The Company evaluates at the end of each reporting period whether some or all of the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are permanently reinvested. The Company recognizes deferred income tax liabilities to the extent that management asserts that undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are not permanently reinvested or will not be permanently reinvested in the future. The Company’s position is based upon several factors including management’s evaluation of the Haemonetics and its subsidiaries’ financial requirements, the short-term and long-term operational and fiscal objectives of the Company and the tax consequences associated with the repatriation of earnings.

Convertible Senior Notes

Effective April 4, 2021, the Company accounted for convertible senior notes as a single liability measured at its amortized cost. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements below. At issuance, the carrying amount is calculated as the proceeds, net of initial debt issuance costs. The difference between the principal amount and carrying value is amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible senior notes using the effective interest rate method.

A detailed analysis of the terms of the convertible senior notes transactions is required to determine existence of any derivatives that may require separate mark-to-market accounting under applicable accounting guidance.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 815, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for the change in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. In addition, ASC 815 provides that, for derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in the fair value are either (a) offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or (b) recognized in equity until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge changes in fair value or cash flows. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculation purposes.

When the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings, the gains or losses on the forward foreign exchange rate contracts designated as hedges are recorded in net revenues, cost of goods sold, operating expenses and other expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of income, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transactions. The cash flows related to the gains and losses are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows as part of cash flows from operating activities. For those derivative instruments that are not designated as part of a hedging relationship the Company records the gains or losses in earnings currently. These gains and losses are intended to offset the gains and losses recorded on net monetary assets or liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies. The Company recorded foreign currency losses of $4.0 million, $1.0 million and $1.5 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses whether the cash flow hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flow of the hedged item. The Company manages the credit risk of its counterparties by dealing only with institutions that it considers financially sound and considers the risk of non-performance to be remote. Additionally, the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to changes in variable interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage and reduce the risk inherent in interest rate fluctuations.

The Company’s derivative instruments do not subject its earnings or cash flows to material risk, as gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset losses and gains on the item being hedged. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and it does not have any non-derivative instruments that are designated as hedging instruments pursuant to ASC 815.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company expenses the fair value of share-based awards granted to employees, board members and others, net of estimated forfeitures. To calculate the grant-date fair value of its stock options the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and for performance share units it uses Monte Carlo simulation models.

Costs Associated with Exit Activities

The Company records employee termination costs in accordance with ASC Topic 712, Compensation - Nonretirement and Postemployment Benefits, if it pays the benefits as part of an on-going benefit arrangement, which includes benefits provided as part of its established severance policies or that it provides in accordance with international statutory requirements. The Company accrues employee termination costs associated with an on-going benefit arrangement if the obligation is attributable to prior services rendered, the rights to the benefits have vested, the payment is probable and the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company accounts for employee termination benefits that represent a one-time benefit in accordance with ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. It records such costs into expense over the employee’s future service period, if any.

Other costs associated with exit activities may include contract termination costs, including costs related to leased facilities to be abandoned or subleased, consultant fees and impairments of long-lived assets. The costs are expensed in accordance with ASC Topic 420 and ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment and are included in costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Additionally, costs directly related to the Company’s active restructuring initiatives, including program management costs, accelerated depreciation and costs to transfer product lines among facilities are included within costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Refer to Note 5, Restructuring, for further information and discussion of its restructuring plans.

Valuation of Acquisitions

The Company allocates the amounts it pays for each acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition, including acquired identifiable intangible assets. The Company bases the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets on detailed valuations that use significant assumptions including forecasted cash flows, revenues attributable to existing technology and discount rates. When estimating the significant assumptions to be used in the valuation, the Company includes a consideration of current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business, and other relevant factors. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The Company allocates any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired to goodwill.

Strategic Investments

The Company holds strategic investments, including preferred stock and a special share, in privately held entities. The special share allows the Company to acquire the related entity in accordance with an agreement between the parties. As these equity instruments do not have readily determinable fair values, they have been measured using the measurement alternative, at cost less impairment. The carrying amount for these instruments would be subsequently adjusted for observable price changes, or prices in orderly transactions for an identical investment or similar investment of the same issuer. In addition, these investments are periodically evaluated for impairment. The investments are classified as other long-term assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Company did not record any adjustments to the carrying value of strategic investments in fiscal 2024 or 2023.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and accounts receivable. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s ten largest customers accounted for approximately 48%, 48% and 45% of net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2024, one Plasma customer, CSL Limited (together with its affiliates, “CSL”), was greater than 10% of total net revenues and accounted for approximately 13% of net revenues. In addition to CSL, two customers also accounted for greater than 10% of the Plasma segment’s net revenues and two customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Blood Center segment’s net revenues, but did not exceed 10% of total net revenues, in fiscal 2024.

Certain markets and industries can expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For example, in the Plasma business unit, sales are concentrated with several large customers. As a result, accounts receivable extended to any one of these biopharmaceutical customers can be significant at any point in time. Also, a portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the U.S. include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries’ national economies. The Company has not incurred significant losses on government receivables. The Company continually evaluates all government receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement

practices. If the financial condition of customers or the countries’ healthcare systems deteriorate such that their ability to make payments is uncertain, allowances may be required in future periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Implemented

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2019-12 — Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new guidance improves consistent application of and simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principals in Topic 740. The Company adopted ASC Update No. 2019-12 effective April 4, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASC ASU Update No. 2020-06 Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments simplify the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASC Update No. 2020-06 effective April 4, 2021 using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a decrease of $61.2 million to additional paid-in capital, a decrease to non-current deferred tax liabilities of $20.0 million, and an increase of $80.3 million to non-current convertible notes, net, on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, retained earnings was adjusted to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods related to the debt discount and the convertible notes no longer have a debt discount that will be amortized, net of taxes. The impact to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2021 is an increase of $1.0 million.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2021-05 — Leases (Topic 842). The new guidance requires a lessor to classify a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease at lease commencement if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria of ASC 842 and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The Company prospectively adopted ASC Update No. 2021-05 effective in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Standards to be Implemented

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The new guidance requires public entities to provide expanded disclosures over significant segment expenses and additional disclosures related to the chief operating decision maker. ASC Update No. 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its interim and annual report disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASC Update No. 2023-09 requires public entities to provide detailed income tax disclosures, including rate reconciliations and disaggregated income tax payment information, on an annual basis. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. ASC Update No. 2023-09 is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2026 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company is currently evaluating the impact to its annual report disclosures.

3. ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND STRATEGIC INVESTMENTS

Acquisitions

Attune Medical

On March 5, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Advanced Cooling Therapy, Inc., d/b/a Attune Medical (“Attune Medical”), the manufacturer of the ensoETM® proactive esophageal cooling device, based in Chicago, Illinois. The acquisition closed on April 1, 2024, subsequent to our fiscal year end. The Company acquired Attune Medical for total upfront consideration of $160.0 million. The agreement also provides for additional contingent consideration based on sales growth over the next three years and the achievement of certain other milestones. The Company financed the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The addition of Attune Medical expands the Hospital business unit’s presence in electrophysiology and complements its Vascular Closure product line.

OpSens Inc.

On October 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Arrangement Agreement with OpSens Inc. (“OpSens”), a medical device cardiology-focused company delivering solutions based on its proprietary optical technology, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of OpSens. On December 12, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of OpSens for total consideration of approximately $254.5 million, or $243.9 million, net of cash acquired. The Company financed the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and borrowings under its senior unsecured revolving credit facility.

OpSens offers commercially and clinically validated optical technology for use primarily in interventional cardiology. OpSens’ core products include the SavvyWire®, a sensor-guided 3-in-1 guidewire for TAVR procedures, advancing the workflow of the procedure and enabling potentially shorter hospital stays for patients; and the OptoWire®, a pressure guidewire that aims to improve clinical outcomes by accurately and consistently measuring Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR) and diastolic pressure ratio (dPR) to aid clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with coronary artery disease. OpSens also manufactures a range of fiber optic sensor solutions used in medical devices and other critical industrial applications. The addition of OpSens expands the Hospital business unit portfolio in the interventional cardiology market and is included in the Hospital reportable segment.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company accounted for the acquisition as a business combination, and in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (Topic 805), recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been recognized based on management’s estimates and assumptions using the information regarding facts and circumstances that existed at the closing date. The assessment of fair value is preliminary and is based on information that was available at the time the consolidated financial statements were prepared. Measurement period adjustments will be recorded in the period in which they are determined, as if they had been completed at the acquisition date. The finalization of the Company’s purchase accounting assessment could result in changes in the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which could be material. The final determination of the fair value of certain assets and liabilities will be completed within the measurement period as required by Topic 805. As of March 30, 2024, the deferred tax liability assumed remains preliminary, pending certain tax filings and analyses.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

The purchase price of $243.9 million, net of $10.6 million of cash acquired consists of the amounts presented below, which represent the preliminary determination of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

(In thousands)	December 12, 2023
Accounts receivable	$	5,960
Inventories	12,075
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	2,062
Property, plant and equipment	3,028
Intangible assets	172,000
Goodwill	99,362
Other long-term assets	4,705
Total assets acquired	$	299,192
Accounts payable	3,251
Accrued payroll and related costs	1,723
Other liabilities	9,746
Deferred tax liability	34,767
Other long-term liabilities	5,853
Total liabilities assumed	$	55,340
Net assets acquired	$	243,852

The Company determined the identifiable intangible assets were developed technology, customer contracts and related relationships and trade names. The fair values of intangible assets were based on valuation techniques with estimates and assumptions developed by the Company. Developed technology and customer contracts and related relationships were valued using the excess earnings method. Trademarks were valued using the relief from royalty method. The cash flows used in the valuation of the intangible assets were based on estimates used to price the transaction. In developing the discount rates applied to the cash flow projections, the discount rates were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the transaction model and the weighted average cost of capital and then adjusted to reflect the relative risk of the asset.

The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. As a result of the acquisition of OpSens, the Company recognized goodwill of $99.4 million based on expected synergies from integration into our Hospital business. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes and relates entirely to the Hospital reportable segment.

Intangible assets acquired consist of the following:

(In thousands)	Amount		Weighted-Average Amortization Period	Risk-Adjusted Discount Rates used in Purchase Price Allocation
Developed technology	$	114,900	15 years	20.5	%
Customer contracts and related relationships	52,300		15 years	18.9	%
Trade names	4,800		15 years	20.5	%
Total	$	172,000

The Company recorded a net long-term deferred tax liability of $34.8 million primarily related to definite-lived intangible assets which cannot be deducted for tax purposes, partially offset by deferred tax assets primarily related to tax attribute carryforwards including net operating losses acquired.

Acquisition-Related Costs

The Company incurred $6.6 million of acquisition-related costs for fiscal 2024 in connection with the OpSens acquisition. These costs related to legal and other professional fees, which were recognized in selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the results of OpSens from the date the acquisition was completed. Pro forma financial information has not been presented as the acquisition is not material to the Company’s overall financial results.

Sale of Assets

U.S. Blood Donor Management Software

In fiscal 2021, the Company sold certain U.S. blood donor management software solution assets within its Blood Center business unit to the GPI Group (“GPI”). As part of the sale agreement, the Company was entitled to additional consideration contingent on the achievement of commercial milestones over the twelve month period immediately following the closing of the transaction. In fiscal years 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized gains of $0.4 million and $9.6 million, respectively, for contingent consideration earned.

Strategic Investments

As part of the Company’s business development activities, it holds strategic investments in certain entities. During fiscal years 2024 and 2023, the Company made investments in Vivasure Medical LTD (“Vivasure”), totaling €5.0 million and €30.0 million, respectively. The investments include both preferred stock and a special share that allows the Company to acquire Vivasure in accordance with an agreement between the parties. In addition, the Company has made other certain strategic investments totaling $7.6 million during fiscal 2024. The Company’s strategic investments are classified as other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheets and the Company did not record any adjustments to the carrying value of our strategic investments in fiscal 2024 or fiscal 2023.

4. REVENUE

As of March 30, 2024, the Company had $26.8 million of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations related to executed contracts with an original duration of one year or more. The Company expects to recognize approximately 79% of this amount as revenue within the next twelve months and the remaining balance thereafter.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and contract assets, as well as customer advances, customer deposits and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference in timing between billing and revenue recognition primarily occurs in software licensing arrangements, resulting in contract assets and contract liabilities.

As of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company had contract liabilities of $31.2 million and $30.2 million, respectively. During fiscal 2024, we recognized $27.9 million of revenue that was included in the above April 1, 2023 contract liability balance. Contract liabilities are classified as other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company’s contract assets were immaterial.

5. RESTRUCTURING

On an ongoing basis, the Company reviews the global economy, the healthcare industry, and the markets in which it competes to identify opportunities for efficiencies, enhance commercial capabilities, align its resources and offer its customers better solutions. In order to realize these opportunities, the Company undertakes restructuring-type activities to transform its business.

Operational Excellence Program

In July 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Operational Excellence Program (the “2020 Program”) and delegated authority to the Company’s management to determine the detail of the initiatives that will comprise the program. During fiscal 2022, the Company revised the program to improve product and service quality, reduce cost principally in its manufacturing and supply chain operations and ensure sustainability while helping to offset impacts from a previously announced customer loss, rising inflationary pressures and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company expects to incur aggregate charges between $85 million and $95 million by the end of fiscal 2025 under the program. The majority of charges will result in cash outlays, including severance and other employee costs, and will be incurred as the specific actions required to execute these initiatives are identified and approved. During fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $9.8 million, $11.5 million and $28.7 million of restructuring and restructuring related costs under this program, respectively. Total cumulative charges under this program are $77.0 million as of March 30, 2024.

Portfolio Rationalization Initiatives

In November 2023, the Company announced its plans to end of life the ClotPro analyzer system within the Hospital business unit and certain products within the Blood Center business unit, primarily in Whole Blood, including the associated manufacturing operations and closure of certain other facilities.

The following table summarizes the activity for restructuring reserves related to portfolio rationalization initiatives, the 2020 Program and prior programs for the fiscal years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, substantially all of which relates to employee severance and other employee costs:

As of March 30, 2024, the Company had a restructuring liability of $11.8 million, all of which is payable within the next twelve months.

In addition to the restructuring expenses included in the table above, the Company also incurred costs of $9.5 million, $10.9 million and $24.6 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively, that do not constitute restructuring costs under ASC 420, Exit and Disposal Cost Obligations, and which the Company instead refers to as restructuring related costs. These costs consist primarily of expenditures directly related to the restructuring actions.

The Company conducts business globally and reports its results of operations in a number of foreign jurisdictions in addition to the United States. The Company’s reported tax rate is impacted by the jurisdictional mix of earnings in any given period as the foreign jurisdictions in which it operates have tax rates that differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate.

The Company’s subsidiary in Malaysia has been granted a full income tax exemption to manufacture whole blood and apheresis devices that could be in effect for up to ten years, provided certain conditions are satisfied. The income tax exemption was in effect beginning June 1, 2016.

Total deferred tax liabilities	(149,931)		(112,477)
Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(54,905)	$	(30,954)

The increase in the worldwide net deferred tax liability is primarily due to the acquisition of intangibles with book basis in excess of tax basis during fiscal 2024, partially offset by research expenditures capitalized for tax purposes.

The valuation allowance increase of $1.4 million during fiscal 2024 is primarily due to acquired foreign deferred tax assets for which the valuation allowance was recorded in acquisition accounting and changes in the valuation allowance in certain foreign jurisdictions based on current year operating results. The Company has assessed, on a jurisdictional basis, the available means of recovering deferred tax assets, including the ability to carry-back net operating losses, the existence of reversing temporary differences, the availability of tax planning strategies and available sources of future taxable income. It has also considered the ability to implement certain strategies that would, if necessary, be implemented to accelerate taxable income and use expiring deferred tax assets. The Company has concluded future taxable income can be considered a source of income to realize a benefit for deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions. The Company believes it is able to support the deferred tax assets recognized as of the end of the year based on all of the available evidence. The worldwide net deferred tax liability as of March 30, 2024 includes deferred tax liabilities related to amortizable tax basis in goodwill and other indefinite lived assets, which can only be used as a source of income to benefit other indefinite lived deferred tax assets.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company maintains a valuation allowance against certain U.S. federal tax credit carryforwards and U.S. state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that are not more-likely-than-not realizable as well as a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets of certain foreign subsidiaries.

In connection with the March 2021 acquisition of Cardiva Medical, Inc., the Company acquired federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $150.9 million and $93.3 million, respectively. The Company also acquired federal and state tax research credit carryforwards of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may become subject to an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant shareholders over a three-year period in excess of 50 percent as defined under Section 382 and 383 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, respectively, as well as similar state provisions. The amount of the annual limitation is determined based on the value of the Company immediately prior to the ownership change. The Company conducted a Section 382 study covering the period of inception (July 2002) through March 1, 2021. The study concluded that ownership changes occurred during that

period which limit the amount of the Company’s net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards that can be utilized before expiring. The remaining carryforwards disclosed in the deferred tax table above represent the amount of attributes that can be utilized based on the results of the study. The Company does not believe it has had an ownership change from March 2, 2021 through March 30, 2024 that would result in a limitation. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company has U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of $28.2 million of which $8.2 million will begin to expire in fiscal 2025 and $20.0 million can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has U.S. state net operating losses of $56.3 million of which $51.0 million will expire at various times between fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2040 and $5.3 million can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has federal and state tax credits of $0.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively, which will begin to expire in fiscal 2029 and fiscal 2028, respectively.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company has Canadian federal and provincial net operating loss carryforwards of $19.6 million and $21.2 million, respectively, which will expire from fiscal 2036 through fiscal 2044. The Company has other foreign net operating losses of approximately $4.0 million that are available to reduce future income which can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has foreign research tax credits of $3.5 million which will begin to expire in fiscal 2027.

As of March 30, 2024, substantially all of the unremitted earnings of the Company have been taxed in the U.S. The Company has not provided U.S. deferred income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries of approximately $96.3 million as such amounts are considered to be indefinitely reinvested in the business. The accumulated earnings in the foreign subsidiaries are primarily utilized to fund working capital requirements as its subsidiaries continue to expand their operations and to fund future foreign acquisitions. The Company does not believe it is practicable to estimate the amount of income taxes payable on the earnings that are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, however a significant portion of the unremitted earnings could be remitted without a future tax cost.

The income tax provision differs from the tax provision computed at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate due to the following:

(In thousands)	2024				2023				2022
Tax at federal statutory rate	$	31,892	21.0	%	$	29,695	21.0	%	$	13,362	21.0	%

Income tax provision	$	34,307	22.6	%	$	26,002	18.4	%	$	20,254	31.8	%

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $34.3 million, representing an effective tax rate of 22.6%. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%, primarily due to state taxes, non-deductible executive compensation and disallowed stock compensation expense, partially offset by jurisdictional mix of earnings, impact of foreign tax law changes and research credits generated.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

Unrecognized tax benefits represent uncertain tax positions for which reserves have been established. As of March 30, 2024, the Company had $3.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.1 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. As of April 1, 2023, the Company had $3.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.2 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. As of April 2, 2022, the Company had $3.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.1 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized.

The following table summarizes the activity related to its gross unrecognized tax benefits for the fiscal years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022:

(In thousands)	March 30, 2024		April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Beginning Balance	$	3,941	$	3,939	$	6,107
Additions for tax positions of current year	234		292		219
Reductions of tax positions	(198)		(290)		(808)
Settlements of tax positions	—		—		(1,579)
Expiration of statute of limitations	(234)		—		—
Ending Balance	$	3,743	$	3,941	$	3,939

As of March 30, 2024, the Company anticipates that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions could change by up to $2.5 million in the next twelve months, as a result of closure of various statutes of limitations.

The Company’s historical practice has been and continues to be to recognize interest and penalties related to federal, state and foreign income tax matters in income tax expense. Approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million of gross interest and penalties were accrued at March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively, and are not included in the amounts above. Additionally, $0.1 million of accrued interest and penalties was included in income tax provision for each of the years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, files federal, state and foreign income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, it is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income tax examinations for years before fiscal 2021 and foreign income tax examinations for years before fiscal 2019. To the extent that the Company has tax attribute carry-forwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service, state, or foreign tax authorities to the extent utilized in a future period.

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the Company’s weighted-average outstanding common shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using its weighted-average outstanding common shares including the dilutive effect of stock awards as determined under the treasury stock method and the convertible senior notes as determined under the net share settlement method. From the time of the issuance of the convertible senior notes, the average market price of the Company’s common shares has been less than the initial conversion price, and consequently no shares have been included in diluted earnings per share for the conversion value of the convertible senior notes. For fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, weighted average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, excludes the impact of 0.6 million, 0.6 million and 0.9 million anti-dilutive shares, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

In August 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a three-year share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of Haemonetics common stock, based on market conditions, through August 2025. Under the share repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, outstanding shares of common stock in accordance with applicable laws on the open market, including under trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, applicable legal requirements and compliance with the terms of loan covenants. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time, and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the program.

In fiscal 2023, the Company completed a $75.0 million repurchase of its common stock pursuant to an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) entered into with Citibank N.A. in August 2022. The total number of shares repurchased under the ASR was 1.0 million at an average price per share upon final settlement of $75.20.

As of March 30, 2024, the total remaining authorization for repurchases of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program was $225.0 million.

Amortization expense on intangible assets for the next five years is estimated to be as follows:

(In thousands)
Fiscal 2025	$	44,016
Fiscal 2026	$	37,407
Fiscal 2027	$	35,228
Fiscal 2028	$	33,456

For costs incurred related to the development of software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed, the Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 985-20, Software - Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed, which specifies that costs incurred internally in researching and developing a computer software product should be charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs should be capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. The costs capitalized for each project are included in intangible assets in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company capitalized $6.6 million and $3.8 million in software development costs for ongoing initiatives during fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively. At March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company had a total of $89.4 million and $82.8 million of software costs capitalized, of which $4.6 million and $3.8 million are related to in process software development initiatives, respectively, and the remaining balance represents in-service assets that are being amortized over their useful lives. Amortization expense for capitalized software was $8.6 million, $8.5 million and $8.4 million for fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

11. LEASES

Lessee Activity

The Company has operating leases for office space, land, warehouse and manufacturing space, R&D laboratories, vehicles and certain equipment. Finance leases are not significant. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are generally not recorded on the balance sheet and expense for these leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company accounts for the lease components and the non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to approximately 30 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years and some include options to terminate early. These options have been included in the determination of the lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company does not have any leases that include residual value guarantees.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present at the inception of an arrangement. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As such, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received.

Lessor Activity

Assets on the Company’s balance sheet classified as Haemonetics equipment primarily consists of medical devices installed at customer sites but owned by Haemonetics. These devices are leased to customers under contractual arrangements that typically include an operating or sales-type lease as well as the purchase and consumption of a certain level of disposable products. Sales-type leases are not significant. Contract terms vary by customer and may include options to terminate the contract or options to extend the contract. Where devices are provided under operating lease arrangements, a substantial majority of the entire lease revenue is variable and subject to subsequent non-lease component (disposable products) sales. The allocation of revenue between the lease and non-lease components is based on stand-alone selling prices. Operating lease revenue represents approximately 3 percent of the Company’s total net sales.

Convertible Senior Notes

The Company has $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The 2026 Notes are governed by the terms of the Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The total net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and debt issuance costs, were approximately $486.7 million. The 2026 Notes will mature on March 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.

Holders may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 1, 2025 only under the following circumstances:

•During any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) beginning after June 30, 2021, if, the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price on each applicable trading day for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;

•During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day;

•The Company issues to common stockholders any rights, options, or warrants, entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 days, to purchase shares of common stock at a price per share less than the average closing sale price of 10 consecutive trading days, or the Company’s election to make a distribution to common stockholders exceeding 10% of the previous day’s closing sale price;

•Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes; or

•Prior to the related redemption date if the Company calls the 2026 Notes for redemption.

On or after September 1, 2025, until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2026 Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. The conversion rate for the 2026 Notes is 5.7033 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $175.34 per share of the Company’s common stock), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at the Company’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted. If a make-whole adjustment event, as described in the Indenture, occurs and a holder elects to convert its 2026 Notes in connection with such make-whole adjustment event, such holder may be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate as described in the Indenture.

During fiscal 2024, the conditions allowing holders of the 2026 Notes to convert have not been met. The 2026 Notes were therefore not convertible as of March 30, 2024 and were classified as long-term debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The 2026 Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 5, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the redemption date. Upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes involving the Company, holders of the 2026 Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their 2026 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus

accrued and unpaid interest.

On April 4, 2021, the Company adopted ASC Update No. 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a decrease of $61.2 million to additional paid-in capital, a decrease to non-current deferred tax liabilities of $20.0 million, and an increase of $80.3 million to non-current convertible notes, net, on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, retained earnings was adjusted to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods related to the debt discount and the convertible notes no longer have a debt discount that will be amortized, net of taxes. The impact to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2021 is an increase of $1.0 million.

As of March 30, 2024, the $500.0 million principal balance was netted down by the $5.2 million of remaining debt issuance costs, resulting in a net convertible note payable of $494.8 million. Interest expense related to the 2026 Notes was $2.7 million for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, which is entirely attributable to the amortization of the debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs are amortized at an effective interest rate of 0.5%.

Capped Calls

In connection with the issuance of the 2026 Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with certain counterparties (“Capped Calls”). The Capped Calls each have an initial strike price of approximately $175.34 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2026 Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $250.48 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls are expected to partially offset the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Notes, with such offset subject to a cap based on the cap price. The Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 2.85 million shares of the Company’s common stock. For accounting purposes, the Capped Calls are separate transactions, and not part of the 2026 Notes. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Capped Calls are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.

Credit Facilities

On June 15, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement with certain lenders that provided for a $350.0 million term loan and a $350.0 million revolving credit facility (together with the term loan, as amended from time to time, the “2018 Credit Facilities”) that were each scheduled to mature on June 15, 2023.

On July 26, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the 2018 Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through June 2025. The amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $280.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which have been used to settle the balance of the term loan under the 2018 Credit Facilities, and a $420.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2022 Revised Credit Facilities”). Loans under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. Under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain certain leverage and interest coverage ratios specified in the amended and restated credit agreement as well as other customary non-financial affirmative and negative covenants.

The Company applied modification accounting for the credit facility refinancing. For the term loan under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, for fiscal 2023, the Company recognized interest expense of $0.5 million for third party fees incurred and capitalized $0.2 million of lender fees related to the term loan. For fiscal 2023, the Company capitalized $1.1 million of lender

fees and third-party costs incurred in the refinancing related to the revolving credit facility under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities.

At March 30, 2024, $262.5 million was outstanding under the term loan with an effective interest rate of 6.9% and $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility with an effective interest rate of 6.8%. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility during fiscal 2024 were to fund the OpSens acquisition. The Company also had $18.7 million of uncommitted operating lines of credit to fund its global operations under which there were no outstanding borrowings as of March 30, 2024.

Under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not to exceed 3.5:1.0 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio not to be less than 4.0:1.0 during periods when the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities are outstanding.

In addition, the Company is required to satisfy these covenants, on a pro forma basis, in connection with any new borrowings (including any letter of credit issuances) on the revolving credit facility as of the time of such borrowings. The Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio is calculated as the consolidated EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense while the Consolidated Net Leverage ratio is calculated as consolidated total debt minus liquidity, divided by consolidated EBITDA. Consolidated EBITDA includes EBITDA adjusted by non-recurring and unusual transactions specifically as defined in the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities.

The 2022 Revised Credit Facilities also contain usual and customary non-financial affirmative and negative covenants that include certain restrictions with respect to subsequent indebtedness, liens, loans and investments (including acquisitions), financial reporting obligations, mergers, consolidations, dispositions, dissolutions or liquidation, asset sales, affiliate transactions, change of its business, capital expenditures, share repurchase and other restricted payments. These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the credit agreement.

Any failure to comply with the financial and operating covenants of the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities would prevent the Company from being able to borrow additional funds and would constitute a default, which could result in, among other things, the amounts outstanding including all accrued interest and unpaid fees, becoming immediately due and payable. In addition, the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities include customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary cure periods. As of March 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants.

In April 2024, subsequent to the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through April 2029. The second amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $250.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which, along with $12.5 million of cash on hand, have been used to retire the balance of the term loan under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, and a $750.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2024 Revised Credit Facilities”), which constitutes a $330.0 million increase from the revolving credit facility under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities. Loans under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities will initially bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0.0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.0% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. The 2024 Revised Credit Facilities mature on April 30, 2029. The principal amount of the term loan under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities amortizes quarterly through the maturity date at a rate of 2.5% for the first three years following the closing date, 5.0% for the fourth year following the closing date and 7.5% for the fifth year following the closing date, with the unpaid balance due at maturity. As of April 30, 2024, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility was $230.0 million, which increased from the end of fiscal 2024, primarily due to borrowings associated with the acquisition of Attune Medical on April 1, 2024.

Under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not to exceed 4.0:1.0 or, on up to two occasions during the term of the facility, 4.5:1.0 for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended immediately following acquisitions meeting certain criteria specified in the agreement.

Commitment Fee

Pursuant to the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to pay, on the last day of each calendar quarter, a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The commitment fee is subject to a pricing grid based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The commitment fee ranges from 0.125% to 0.250%. The current commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility is 0.175%.

The commitment fees noted above did not change pursuant to the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities.

Debt Issuance Costs and Interest

Expenses associated with the issuance of the term loan were capitalized and are amortized to interest expense over the life of the senior unsecured term loan using the effective interest method. As of March 30, 2024, the $262.5 million term loan balance was netted down by the $0.5 million of remaining debt discount, resulting in a net note payable of $262.0 million.

Interest expense was $19.5 million, $13.0 million and $5.8 million for fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accrued interest associated with the outstanding debt is included as a component of other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of both March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company had an insignificant amount of accrued interest associated with the outstanding debt.

The future aggregate amount of debt maturities, adjusted for the impact of the Company’s debt refinancing in April 2024 as discussed above, are as follows:

Fiscal year (In thousands)
2025	$	17,341
2026	$	507,924
2027	$	6,325
2028	$	12,575
2029	$	18,825
Thereafter	$	430,519

13. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company manufactures, markets and sells its products globally. For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, 25.9% of the Company’s sales were generated outside the U.S. in local currencies. The Company also incurs certain manufacturing, marketing and selling costs in international markets in local currency.

Accordingly, earnings and cash flows are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar, the Company’s reporting currency. The Company has a program in place that is designed to mitigate the exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. That program includes the use of derivative financial instruments to minimize, for a period of time, the impact on its financial results from changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the anticipated cash flows from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, primarily Japanese Yen and Euro, and to a lesser extent Swiss Franc and Mexican Peso. This does not eliminate the impact of the volatility of foreign exchange rates. However, because the Company generally enters into forward contracts one year out, rates are fixed for a one-year period, thereby facilitating financial planning and resource allocation.

Designated Foreign Currency Hedge Contracts

All of the Company’s designated foreign currency hedge contracts as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023 were cash flow hedges under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The Company records the effective portion of any change in the fair value of designated foreign currency hedge contracts in other comprehensive income until the related third-party transaction occurs. Once the related third-party transaction occurs, the Company reclassifies the effective portion of any related gain or loss on the designated foreign currency hedge contracts to earnings. In the event the hedged forecasted transaction does not occur, or it becomes probable that it will not occur, the Company will reclassify the amount of any gain or loss on the related cash flow hedge to earnings at that time. The Company had designated foreign currency hedge contracts outstanding in the contract amount of $74.0 million as of March 30, 2024 and $51.8 million as of April 1, 2023. At March 30, 2024, a gain of $2.8 million, net of tax, will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months. All currency cash flow hedges outstanding as of March 30, 2024 mature within twelve months.

Non-Designated Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company manages its exposure to changes in foreign currency on a consolidated basis to take advantage of offsetting transactions and balances. It uses foreign currency forward contracts as a part of its strategy to manage exposure related to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. These foreign currency forward contracts are entered into for periods consistent with currency transaction exposures, generally one month. They are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges under ASC 815. These forward contracts are marked-to-market with changes in fair value recorded to earnings. The Company had non-designated foreign currency hedge contracts under ASC 815 outstanding in the contract amount of $39.9 million as of March 30, 2024 and $44.7 million as of April 1, 2023.

Interest Rate Swaps

Part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to changes in variable interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage and reduce the risk inherent in interest rate fluctuations.

On June 15, 2018, the Company entered into the 2018 Credit Facilities which provided for a $350.0 million term loan and a $350.0 million revolving credit facility. In August 2018, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements to pay an average fixed rate of 2.80% plus the applicable rate on a total notional value of $241.9 million of debt, or 70% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan. As a result of the Company’s refinancing of the 2018 Credit Facilities in July 2022, as discussed below, the 2018 interest rate swaps were amended in September 2022 to align with the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate rather than LIBOR (the “Amended Swaps”). In order to avoid dedesignation, the Company elected certain practical expedients under ASC 848. As a result, the Company’s earnings and cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk from changes to SOFR. The Amended Swaps matured on June 15, 2023.

On July 26, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement to refinance the 2018 Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through June 2025. The 2022 Revised Credit Facilities include a $280.0 million senior unsecured term loan and a $420.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. Loans under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to the 1-month USD Term SOFR plus 0.10% and an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio. In September 2022, the Company entered into four additional interest rate swaps, which when combined with the Amended Swaps, resulted in an average blended fixed interest rate of 3.57% plus the applicable rate on 70% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan until mid-June 2023 and 4.12% plus the applicable rate thereafter on 80% of the notional value until the maturity date in June 2025. The Company has concluded that the two remaining interest rate swaps entered into during September 2022, which cover 80% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan through maturity in June 2025, are effective and qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

The Company held the following interest rate swaps as of March 30, 2024:

Hedged Item	Original Notional Amount		Notional Amount as of March 30, 2024		Designation Date	Effective Date	Termination Date	Fixed Interest Rate	Estimated Fair Value Assets (Liabilities)
(In thousands)

1-month USD Term SOFR	109,900		105,000		9/23/2022	6/15/2023	6/15/2025	4.15%	835
Total	$	219,800	$	211,400					$	1,735

For fiscal 2024, the Company recorded a gain of $2.2 million, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss to recognize the effective portion of the fair value of the swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges.

Trade Receivables

In the ordinary course of business, the Company grants trade credit to its customers on normal credit terms. In an effort to reduce its credit risk, the Company (i) establishes credit limits for all customers, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of customers’ receivables and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses is maintained for trade accounts receivable based on the expected collectability, the historical collection experience, the length of time an account is outstanding, the financial position of the customer and information provided by credit rating services. The Company has not experienced significant customer payment defaults, or identified other significant collectability concerns.

The following is a roll forward of the allowance for credit losses:

	Twelve Months Ended
(In thousands)	March 30, 2024		April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Beginning balance	$	4,932	$	2,475	$	2,226

Write-offs	(77)		(166)		(110)
Ending balance	$	5,695	$	4,932	$	2,475

Other Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes the following three-level hierarchy used for measuring fair value:

•Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are other observable inputs, including quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities and market-corroborated inputs.

•Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs based on management’s best estimate of inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date, including assumptions about risk.

The Company’s money market funds carried at fair value are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

The following table presents the effect of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges and those not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 in its consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024.

Derivative Instruments	Amount of Gain Recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss		Amount of Gain (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into Earnings		Location in Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income	Amount of Gain Excluded from Effectiveness Testing		Location in Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income
(In thousands)
Designated foreign currency hedge contracts, net of tax	$	2,764	$	3,502	Net revenues, COGS and SG&A	$	1,973	Interest and other expense, net
Non-designated foreign currency hedge contracts	—		—			$	1,510	Interest and other expense, net
Designated interest rate swaps, net of tax	$	2,148	$	(5)	Interest and other expense, net

The Company did not have fair value hedges or net investment hedges outstanding as of March 30, 2024 or April 1, 2023. As of March 30, 2024, no material deferred taxes were recognized for designated foreign currency hedges.

ASC 815 requires all derivative instruments to be recognized at their fair values as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using the framework prescribed by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, by considering the estimated amount it would receive or pay to sell or transfer these instruments at the reporting date and by taking into account current interest rates, currency exchange rates, current interest rate curves, interest rate volatilities, the creditworthiness of the counterparty for assets, and its creditworthiness for liabilities. In certain instances, the Company may utilize financial models to measure fair value. Generally, the Company uses inputs that include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; other observable inputs for the asset or liability; and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. As of March 30, 2024, the Company has classified its derivative assets and liabilities within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 815, as discussed below, because these observable inputs are available for substantially the full term of its derivative instruments.

The following tables present the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments as they appear in its consolidated balance sheets as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023:

Foreign currency hedge contracts - The fair value of foreign currency hedge contracts was measured using significant other observable inputs and valued by reference to over-the-counter quoted market prices for similar instruments. The Company does not believe that the fair value of these derivative instruments differs significantly from the amount that could be realized upon settlement or maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a significant effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Interest rate swaps - The fair values of interest rate swaps are measured using the present value of expected future cash flows using market-based observable inputs, including credit risk and interest rate yield curves. The Company does not believe that the fair values of these derivative instruments differ significantly from the amounts that could be realized upon settlement or maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a significant effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Contingent consideration - The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is based on significant unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions, and is measured based on the probability-weighted present value of the payments expected to be made. Accordingly, the fair value of contingent consideration has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The fair value of the 2026 Notes as of March 30, 2024 was $460.1 million, which was determined by using the market price on the last trading day of the reporting period and is considered as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The senior unsecured term loan (which is carried at amortized cost), accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value.

14. RETIREMENT PLANS

Defined Contribution Plans

The Company has a Savings Plus Plan (the “401k Plan”) that allows its U.S. employees to accumulate savings on a pre-tax basis. In addition, matching contributions are made to the 401k Plan based upon pre-established rates. The Company’s matching contributions amounted to approximately $8.1 million, $6.9 million and $6.3 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Upon the Company’s Board of Directors’ approval, additional discretionary contributions can also be made. No discretionary contributions were made for the 401k Plan in fiscal 2024, 2023, or 2022.

Some of the Company’s subsidiaries also have defined contribution plans, to which both the employee and the employer make contributions. The employer contributions to these plans totaled $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Defined Benefit Plans

ASC Topic 715, Compensation — Retirement Benefits, requires an employer to: (a) recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan’s over-funded status or a liability for a plan’s under-funded status; (b) measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit post retirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Accordingly, the Company is required to report changes in its funded status in comprehensive loss on its consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Benefits under these plans are generally based on either career average or final average salaries and creditable years of service as defined in the plans. The annual cost for these plans is determined using the projected unit credit actuarial cost method that includes actuarial assumptions and estimates that are subject to change.

Some of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all full time employees at those subsidiaries. Net periodic benefit costs for the plans in the aggregate include the following components:

One of the benefit plans is funded by benefit payments made by the Company through the purchase of reinsurance contracts that do not qualify as plan assets under ASC Topic 715. Accordingly, that plan has no assets included in the information presented above. The total asset value associated with the reinsurance contracts was $7.0 million and $7.1 million at March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively. The total liability for this plan, which is included in the table above, was $7.8 million and $7.5 million as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively.

The accumulated benefit obligation for all plans was $30.1 million and $25.2 million for fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were no plans where the plan assets were greater than the accumulated benefit obligation as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023.

The Company expects to amortize $0.2 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net periodic benefit cost during fiscal 2025.

The weighted average rates used to determine the net periodic benefit costs and projected benefit obligations were as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Discount rate	2.05	%	2.43	%	1.38	%
Rate of increased salary levels	1.86	%	1.94	%	1.81	%
Expected long-term rate of return on assets	0.94	%	0.87	%	0.69	%

Assumptions for expected long-term rate of return on plan assets are based upon actual historical returns, future expectations of returns for each asset class and the effect of periodic target asset allocation rebalancing. The results are adjusted for the payment of reasonable expenses of the plan from plan assets.

The Company has no other material obligation for post-retirement or post-employment benefits.

The Company’s investment policy for pension plans is to balance risk and return through a diversified portfolio to reduce interest rate and market risk. Maturities are managed so that sufficient liquidity exists to meet immediate and future benefit payment requirements.

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides guidance for reporting and measuring the plan assets of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan at fair value as of March 30, 2024. Using the same three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as described in Note 13, Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements, all of the assets of the Company’s plan are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because the plan assets are primarily insurance contracts.

Expected benefit payments for both plans are estimated using the same assumptions used in determining the Company’s benefit obligation at March 30, 2024. Benefit payments will depend on future employment and compensation levels, average years employed and average life spans, among other factors, and changes in any of these factors could significantly affect these estimated future benefit payments. Estimated future benefit payments are as follows:

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that, except for those matters described below, there are no other proceedings or claims pending against it the ultimate resolution of which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. At each reporting period, management evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies, for all matters. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts. The subpoena requested certain documents regarding the Company’s apheresis and autotransfusion devices and disposables, including documents relating to product complaints and adverse event reporting, regulatory clearances and product design changes, among other matters. The Company has fully cooperated with this inquiry. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) filed a motion on behalf of the United States and 31 states reflecting their decision to not intervene in the underlying qui tam action captioned United States ex rel. Berthelot et al. v. Haemonetics Corp., 1:20-cv-11062-ADB, pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, indicating that the DOJ had completed its investigative activity based on then available information. The qui tam case was unsealed by order dated August 18, 2022. On January 12, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with the individual plaintiffs in the qui tam case that provides for settlement of certain unrelated employment matters and releases those individuals’ claims. During fiscal 2024, the Company recorded an additional loss contingency related to this matter, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. On January 16, 2024, the relators in the qui tam case filed a stipulation of dismissal of their claims against the Company. The court dismissed the qui tam claims with prejudice as to the relators and without prejudice as to the government.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois by Mary Crumpton, on behalf of herself and similarly situated individuals. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District Illinois. See Mary Crumpton v. Haemonetics Corporation, Case No. 1:21-cv-1402. In her complaint, the plaintiff asserts that between June 2017 and August 2018 she donated plasma at a center operated by one of the Company’s customers, that the center required her to scan her fingerprint on a finger scanner that stored her fingerprint to identify her prior to plasma donation, and that the Company’s eQue donor management software sent her biometric information to a Company-owned server to be collected and stored in a manner that violated her rights under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”). The plaintiff seeks statutory damages, attorneys’ fees and injunctive and equitable relief. In March 2021, the Company moved to dismiss the complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction and concurrently filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim and a motion to stay. In March 2022, the court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction but did not address the merits of the Company’s other positions. In March 2023, the Company filed a second motion to dismiss the complaint, which is pending before the court. During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding providing terms that would resolve the litigation and recorded an additional loss contingency related to this matter. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the parties requested preliminary court approval of a final settlement agreement, which was granted in February 2024, and the Company recorded an immaterial additional loss contingency related to settlement administration, resulting in an accrual of $8.7 million within Other current liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets. In March 2024, notice of the settlement was mailed to class members and the parties are now awaiting the complete administration of the settlement through the third-party administrator.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by Knoninklijke Philips N.V. and IP2IPO Innovations, Ltd. (together, the “Plaintiffs”) against OpSens, OpSens Medical, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OpSens, and Haemonetics (1:24-cv-00206-CFC). The complaint alleges, inter alia, that OpSens’ interventional cardiology systems, including its OptoWire and OptoMonitor technology, infringe a single patent held by the

Plaintiffs and seeks both injunctive relief and damages. The Company believes it has valid and meritorious defenses to the complaint and plans to vigorously defend against the complaint if and when served.

Product Recall

In August 2023, the Company issued a voluntary recall of certain products within the Whole Blood portion of our Blood Center business unit sold to customers in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. As of March 30, 2024, the Company has recorded cumulative charges of $6.8 million related to inventory, returns and customer claims associated with this recall. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this recall and may record additional incremental charges in future periods.

16. CAPITAL STOCK

Stock Plans

The Haemonetics Corporation 2019 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2019 Equity Plan”) was approved and became effective on July 25, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). The 2019 Equity Plan permits the award of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (including performance-based restricted stock units) and other awards to the Company’s key employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries. The 2019 Equity Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”), which consists of four independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and is the successor to the Haemonetics Corporation 2005 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the “2005 Equity Plan”). Upon the Effective Date, no further awards were granted under the 2005 Equity Plan; however, each outstanding award under the 2005 Equity Plan will remain outstanding under that plan and continue to be governed under its terms and any applicable award agreement.

The 2019 Equity Plan initially had a share reserve of 2,700,000 new shares of common stock, plus the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2005 Plan that remained available for grant under the 2005 Plan as of July 25, 2019, an aggregate of 5,759,433 shares as of the Effective Date.

On August 4, 2023, the 2019 Equity Plan was amended and restated to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan by 2,966,231 additional shares, from 1,975,970 shares to 4,942,201 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment as provided by the terms of the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated.

Under the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated, any shares that are subject to the award of stock options or SARs will be counted against the authorized share reserve as one share for every one share issued and any shares that are subject to awards other than stock options, SARs or cash awards will be counted against the authorized share reserve as 2.76 shares for every one share granted. Shares of common stock subject to outstanding grants under the 2005 Equity Plan as of the Effective Date that terminate, expire, or are otherwise canceled without having been exercised will be added to the share reserve at the applicable 2019 Equity Plan ratios. The total shares available for future grant under the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated and giving effect to the applicable adjustment provisions, were 5,340,447 as of March 30, 2024.

Share-Based Compensation

Compensation cost related to share-based transactions is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on fair value. The total amount of share-based compensation expense, which is recorded on a straight line basis, is as follows:

(In thousands)	2024	2023	2022
Selling, general and administrative expenses	$23,662	$21,903	$20,694

Stock Options

Options are granted to purchase common stock at prices as determined by the Committee, but in no event shall such exercise price be less than the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the grant. Options generally vest in equal installments over a four year period for employees and one year from grant for non-employee directors. Options expire not more than 7 years from the date of the grant. The grant-date fair value of options, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience.

A summary of stock option activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Options Outstanding	Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Life (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000’s)
Outstanding at April 1, 2023	1,150,194	$	64.21	3.55	$	27,481
Granted	179,696	89.09
Exercised	(234,913)	32.65
Forfeited/Canceled	(27,973)	83.46
Outstanding at March 30, 2024	1,067,004	$	74.86	3.68	$	16,820
Exercisable at March 30, 2024	561,037	$	77.88	2.36	$	8,555
Vested or expected to vest at March 30, 2024	983,780	$	74.98	3.59	$	15,663

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $12.4 million, $1.9 million and $1.7 million during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

As of March 30, 2024, there was $10.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

The fair value was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the closing stock price at the grant date and the weighted average assumptions specific to the underlying options. Expected volatility assumptions are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the expected term of the option. The risk-free interest rate was selected based upon yields of U.S. Treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option being valued. The expected life of the option was estimated with reference to historical exercise patterns, the contractual term of the option and the vesting period.

The assumptions utilized for option grants during the periods presented are as follows:

	2024			2023			2022
Volatility	45.3		%	45.0		%	41.9		%
Expected life (years)	5.1			5.0			4.9
Risk-free interest rate	3.5		%	2.9		%	0.8		%
Dividend yield	0.0		%	0.0		%	0.0		%
Grant-date fair value per Option	$	39.46		$	24.86		$	20.97

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) generally vest in equal installments over a three or four year period for employees and one year from grant for non-employee directors. The grant-date fair value of RSUs, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair market value of RSUs is determined based on the market value of the Company’s shares on the date of grant.

A summary of RSU activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at April 1, 2023	381,308	$	63.94
Granted	141,031	89.21
Vested	(166,193)	67.14
Forfeited	(18,138)	71.45
Unvested at March 30, 2024	338,008	$	72.52

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of RSUs granted and total fair value of RSUs vested are as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Grant-date fair value per RSU	$	89.21	$	59.36	$	56.96
Fair value of RSUs vested	$	67.14	$	70.24	$	79.60

As of March 30, 2024, there was $15.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

Performance Share Units

The grant date fair value of Performance Share Units (“PSUs”), adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight line basis from the grant date through the end of the performance period. The value of these PSUs is generally based on relative total shareholder return which equals total shareholder return for the Company as compared with total shareholder return of the PSU comparison group, measured over a three year performance period. The PSUs comparison group consists of the Standard and Poor's (“S&P”) MidCap 400 Index. Depending on the Company’s relative performance during the performance period, a recipient of the award is entitled to receive a number of ordinary shares equal to a percentage, ranging from 0% to 200%, of the award granted. If the Company’s total shareholder return for the performance period is negative, then any share payout will be capped at 100% of the target award, regardless of the Company’s performance relative to the its comparison group. As a result, the Company may issue up to 739,600 shares related to outstanding performance-based awards.

A summary of PSU activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at April 1, 2023	323,987	$	87.35
Granted(1)	54,558	128.83
Forfeited	(8,745)	88.20
Unvested at March 30, 2024	369,800	$	94.26
(1) Includes the adjustment of 59,091 shares for awards granted in fiscal 2021, based on actual relative total shareholder return of 0%

The Company uses the Monte Carlo model to estimate the probability of satisfying the performance criteria and the resulting fair value of PSU awards with market conditions. The assumptions used in the Monte Carlo model for PSUs granted during each fiscal year were as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Expected stock price volatility	48.20	%	52.22	%	49.23	%
Peer group stock price volatility	40.29	%	47.43	%	45.75	%
Correlation of returns	59.93	%	65.45	%	65.06	%

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of PSUs granted is as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Grant-date fair value per PSU	$	128.83	$	84.96	$	72.52

As of March 30, 2024, there was $18.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested performance share units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) under which a maximum of 3,200,000 shares (subject to adjustment for stock splits and similar changes) of common stock may be purchased by eligible employees. Substantially all of its full-time employees are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan.

The Purchase Plan provides for two “purchase periods” within each of its fiscal years, the first commencing on November 1 of each year and continuing through April 30 of the next calendar year, and the second commencing on May 1 of each year and continuing through October 31 of such year. Shares are purchased through an accumulation of payroll deductions (of not less than 2% or more than 15% of compensation, as defined) for the number of whole shares determined by dividing the balance in the employee’s account on the last day of the purchase period by the purchase price per share for the stock determined under the Purchase Plan. The purchase price for shares is the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the common stock at the beginning of the purchase period, or 85% of such value at the end of the purchase period.

The fair values of shares purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan are estimated using the Black-Scholes single option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	2024		2023		2022
Volatility	28.6	%	44.9	%	55.6	%
Expected life (months)	6		6		6
Risk-free interest rate	5.4	%	2.9	%	0.1	%
Dividend Yield	0.0	%	0.0	%	0.0	%

The weighted average grant date fair value of the six-month option inherent in the Purchase Plan was approximately $20.27, $18.10 and $20.77 during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

18. SEGMENT AND ENTERPRISE-WIDE INFORMATION

The Company determines its reportable segments by first identifying its operating segments, and then by assessing whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company’s reporting structure aligns with its operating structure of three global business units and the information that is regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

The Company’s reportable and operating segments are as follows:

•Plasma

•Blood Center

•Hospital

Management measures and evaluates the operating segments based on operating income. Management excludes certain corporate expenses from segment operating income. In addition, certain amounts that management considers to be non-recurring or non-operational are excluded from segment operating income because management evaluates the operating results of the segments excluding such items. These items include integration and transaction costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs, restructuring related costs, digital transformation costs related to the upgrade of our enterprise resource planning system, impairments and write downs, accelerated device depreciation and related costs, costs related to compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”) and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (“IVDR”), unusual or infrequent and material litigation-related charges and gains and losses on dispositions and sale of assets. Although these amounts are excluded from segment operating income, as applicable, they are included in the reconciliations that follow. Management measures and evaluates the Company’s net revenues and operating income using internally derived standard currency exchange rates that remain constant from year to year; therefore, segment information is presented on this basis.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) regarding the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of that date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Reports on Internal Control

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published 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 become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of March 30, 2024. In making this assessment, the management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 framework). Based on our assessment, the Company’s management believes that its internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of March 30, 2024.

The Acquisition of OpSens Inc.

On December 12, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of OpSens. In accordance with the SEC Staff’s interpretative guidance for newly acquired businesses, we are permitted to omit an assessment of an acquired business’s internal control over financial reporting from our assessment of internal control for up to one year from the acquisition date. OpSens represented approximately 1% of both the Company’s total net revenues in fiscal 2024 and total assets as of March 30, 2024. As such, we have excluded OpSens from our annual assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of March 30, 2024.

Ernst & Young, LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This report, in which they expressed an unqualified opinion, is included below.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, we implemented the first phase of a new global enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, which will continue to be implemented in phases through fiscal 2025. The ERP will replace existing financial systems we have historically relied on. As each phase of the implementation occurs, we will reassess our processes and procedures, which may result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Haemonetics Corporation

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited Haemonetics Corporation and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of March 30, 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, Haemonetics Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 30, 2024, based on the COSO criteria.

As indicated in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls of OpSens Inc., which is included in the 2024 consolidated financial statements of the Company and constituted approximately 1% of total assets as of March 30, 2024 and 1% of net revenues for the year then ended. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of the Company also did not include an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of OpSens Inc.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the 2024 consolidated financial statements of the Company and our report dated May 20, 2024 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.

EX-19.1

Exhibit 19.1

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION

SECURITIES TRADING POLICY

1.Purpose

This Securities Trading Policy (this “Policy”) sets forth the guidelines of Haemonetics Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Haemonetics”) regarding compliance with U.S. and foreign securities laws and regulations relating to trading in Haemonetics and third-party securities. The purpose of this Policy is to promote compliance with these securities laws and regulations and to provide Covered Persons (as defined below) with procedures and guidance to prevent even unintentional violations.

As used in this Policy, the term “Haemonetics securities” means (i) Haemonetics common stock, options to purchase Haemonetics common stock, or any other type of securities that Haemonetics may issue, including (but not limited to) preferred stock, convertible debentures and warrants, and (ii) derivative securities that are not issued by Haemonetics, such as exchange-traded put or call options or swaps, in each case relating to Haemonetics securities.

2.Applicability

This Policy applies to all Haemonetics employees (regardless of role or title), members of its Board of Directors, contract workers, consultants and temporary staff worldwide (collectively, “Covered Persons”). This policy applies to all Covered Persons even if the activities prohibited in this Policy are not illegal in the country where any particular person is located.

Covered Persons are responsible for ensuring that their family members who reside with a Covered Person (including spouses, children, children away at college and parents) and anyone living in a Covered Person’s household also comply with this Policy, and each reference in this Policy to a “Covered Person” (including any additional restrictions applicable under Section 4 based on a Covered Person’s designation as an “insider”) should be interpreted to include such persons.

3.Statement of Principles and Policies

(a)Non-Disclosure of Material Nonpublic Information. Covered Persons may not disclose material nonpublic information to anyone, except persons within Haemonetics or third party agents of Haemonetics (such as our independent auditor or outside legal counsel) whose positions require them to know it, until such information has been publicly released by Haemonetics. Please refer to Section 6 below for guidance and illustrative examples of what may constitute “material nonpublic information.”

(b)Prohibition Against Insider Trading. U.S. securities laws impose important trading restrictions on Covered Persons who learn of material nonpublic information regarding Haemonetics or a company with which it does business - including its customers and suppliers – in the course of a Covered Person’s employment or association with Haemonetics. The principal restriction is that Covered Persons may not buy or sell Haemonetics securities or such third-party’s securities while in possession of material nonpublic information or “tip” others about such information. This conduct is referred to as “insider trading” and can carry both criminal and civil penalties. Accordingly, Covered Persons are subject to the following restrictions:

(i)Prohibited Transactions in Haemonetics Securities.No Covered Person may trade, including by placing a purchase or sell order, or recommend that another person trade, in Haemonetics securities when he or she has knowledge of material nonpublic information concerning Haemonetics.

(ii)Prohibited Trading in Other Securities. No Covered Person may trade, including by placing purchase or sell orders, or recommend that another person trade, in the securities of another company if the person learns of material nonpublic information about the other company in the course of his or her employment with Haemonetics.

(iii)“Tipping” Information to Others. Covered Persons may not communicate, or “tip,” material nonpublic information to any third party (a “tippee”) – whether a family member or otherwise – for the improper purpose of exploiting that information for personal gain. In such circumstances, tippees inherit a Covered Person’s duties and both the tippee who trades on material nonpublic information illegally tipped to them and the Covered Person who tipped such information may be held liable for insider trading violations. Covered Persons may be liable for any unauthorized communication of material nonpublic information to a tippee even if the Covered Person does not receive any pecuniary gain from the tip (a mere gift of such information can be sufficient to support liability for both a tipper and tippee). Additionally, tippees will be held liable for trades by other persons to whom they tip such material nonpublic information. In other words, a tippee’s liability for insider trading is no different from that of a Covered Person. Tippees can obtain material nonpublic information by receiving explicit tips from others or from unintentional disclosure through, among other things, conversations at social, business or other gatherings.

(c)Prohibition on Speculation and Hedging. Investing in Haemonetics securities provides an opportunity to share in Haemonetics’ long-term growth. In contrast, short-term speculation based on fluctuations in the market for Haemonetics securities may create the potential for conflict between a Covered Person’s personal gain and the long-term interests of Haemonetics and its shareholders. Accordingly, this Policy prohibits Covered Persons from directly or indirectly participating in the following trading activities with respect to Haemonetics securities that by their nature are aggressive or speculative or may give rise to an appearance of impropriety:

•Same-day or short-term trading (i.e., “day trading”);

•Selling stock that the Covered Person does not own or a sale that is completed by delivery of borrowed stock (i.e., a “short sale”);

•Entering into any derivative security transactions (including purchasing, selling or writing put or call options, forward contracts, “equity” or “performance” swap or any similar agreements denominated in Haemonetics securities) or similar transactions.

In addition, from time to time, Haemonetics may determine that other types of transactions by Covered Persons in Haemonetics securities shall be prohibited or shall be permitted only with the prior written consent of Haemonetics’ Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel.

(d)Prohibition on Pledging. Securities held in a margin account as collateral for a margin loan may be sold by the broker without the customer’s consent if the customer fails to meet a margin call. Similarly, securities pledged (or hypothecated) as collateral for a loan may be sold in foreclosure if the borrower defaults on a loan. Because a margin sale or foreclosure sale may occur at a time when a Covered Person is aware of material nonpublic information or otherwise not permitted to trade in Haemonetics securities, Covered Persons

2

are prohibited from holding Haemonetics securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging Haemonetics securities in any way including as collateral for a loan.

4.Trading Windows and Blackout Periods

In addition to the other requirements of this Policy, Haemonetics officers, members of its Board of Directors and certain other Covered Persons designated by the General Counsel from time to time (together, “insiders”) are subject to the following additional trading restrictions based on (i) their responsibility for or authority over business decisions and/or (ii) their routine exposure to financial or other information that would likely be considered material before it is publicly released:

(a)Quarterly Blackout Periods. Trading in Haemonetics securities by insiders is generally prohibited beginning two weeks prior to the end of a fiscal quarter and ending at the close of market on the second full trading day after Haemonetics’ earnings for that quarter are publicly released. During these quarterly no-trading (i.e., “blackout”) periods, insiders generally possess or are presumed to possess material nonpublic information about Haemonetics’ financial results. Quarterly blackout periods may be adjusted by the Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel and may be started early or extended without prior notice.

(b)Special Blackout Periods. From time to time, Haemonetics’ Chief Financial Officer or General Counsel may institute other specific blackout periods with respect to Haemonetics securities as warranted by business developments. In such instances, Haemonetics will notify applicable Covered Persons in writing that they are subject to such blackout period and such persons will be prohibited from trading in Haemonetics securities until they receive notice that the special blackout period has been lifted. Affected persons must not discuss the existence of the special blackout period with any Haemonetics employee or other person (other than the General Counsel to the extent necessary for the resolution of any question or issues).

(c)Pre-Clearance Procedures. Haemonetics imposes mandatory trading pre-clearance procedures outside of blackout periods (i.e., an “open trading window”) for all officers, members of its Board of Directors and other insiders. Each director, officer and other insider must receive pre-clearance from the General Counsel, or his or her designee, prior to purchasing or selling Haemonetics securities during an open trading window (including upon the exercise of options). Such pre-clearance is valid for up to three trading days but terminates immediately upon the earlier of notification from the General Counsel, the start of a blackout period or the insider’s acquisition of material nonpublic information. Additionally, no limit order for any insider may extend beyond the pre-clearance period. Please note that open trading windows and pre-clearance grants are not “safe harbors” that ensure compliance with securities laws. Insiders remain responsible for their trades and should use good judgment.

(d)Brokerage Account Transfers. Haemonetics officers, members of its Board of Directors and other insiders are prohibited from placing Haemonetics securities in brokerage accounts outside of Fidelity Investments (“Fidelity”) without the prior written consent of the General Counsel. All Haemonetics securities transferred pursuant to the foregoing sentence remain subject to the requirements of this Policy and any additional requirements the General Counsel determines appropriate.

(e)Termination of Relationship with Haemonetics. Covered Persons subject to a quarterly or special blackout period at the time that their employment with Haemonetics or service on its Board of Directors terminates will remain subject to the requirements of such then-existing blackout period until it is lifted, at which time the Covered Person will no longer be subject to this Section 4.

The General Counsel maintains one or more lists of insiders and persons subject to special blackout periods. Haemonetics will ensure that each such person is made aware that he or she is on such list(s) or will be made aware that he or she has been added to such list(s) promptly after the related determination has been made.

5.Certain Exceptions to Trading Prohibitions

(a)    Permitted Transactions. This Policy generally does not apply to the following transactions in Haemonetics securities:

•A Covered Person’s exercise of Haemonetics stock options by paying the full exercise price in cash, provided that no shares of common stock received upon such exercise may be sold except in compliance with Sections 3 and 4, whether to fund the exercise, pay taxes or otherwise;

•Automatic “sell to cover” transactions conducted by Fidelity and mandated by Haemonetics’ election under one or more of its equity incentive compensation plans to require the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of a Covered Person’s restricted stock units (whether performance or time-based) to be funded by such sell to cover transactions;

•A Covered Person’s ongoing investments under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan pursuant to existing investment elections; or

•Buying or selling investments in publicly traded mutual funds.

(b)    Rule 10b5-1 Plans. The trading blackout and trade pre-clearance requirements under Section 4 of this Policy do not apply to purchases or sales of Haemonetics securities made pursuant to a previously established and approved “Rule 10b5-1 plan.” Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") provides Covered Persons with an affirmative defense from insider trading liability to the extent a plan meets certain conditions specified in Rule 10b5-1. Any Covered Person who wishes to enter into a Rule 10b5-1 plan must contact the General Counsel for pre-clearance. To be pre-cleared by the General Counsel, a Rule 10b5-1 plan must comply with both the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 and the following guidelines:

•The plan can only be established or amended at a time when the Covered Person does not possess material nonpublic information about Haemonetics;

•The plan cannot be established or amended during a trading blackout period;

•The Rule 10b5-1 plan must include a “cooling off period” between establishment or modification and a transaction under that plan. For Covered Persons that are directors or officers within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, the “cooling off period” is the later of (a) 90 days following establishment or modification of the Rule 10b5-1 plan and (b) two business days following disclosure in the Form 10-K or Form 10-Q filed by Haemonetics disclosing the Haemonetics financial results for the period in which the plan was established or modified, in all cases subject to maximum “cooling off period” of 120 days. For other Covered Persons, the “cooling off period” is 30 days following establishment or modification of the Rule 10b5-1 plan. Consistent with guidance from the SEC, for this limited purpose it will not be considered a modification of a Rule 10b5-1 plan if the modification does not change the sales or purchase prices or price ranges, the amount of securities to be sold or purchased, or the timing of transactions under a Rule 10b5-1 plan;

4

•Other than in limited circumstances as approved by the General Counsel, Covered Persons may not at any one time have more than one Rule 10b5-1 plan that cover all or a portion of the same time period. For clarity, this policy does not limit the ability of a Covered Person who adopts a Rule 10b5-1 plan from engaging in the permitted transactions specified in Section 5(a) above;

•Covered Persons may not adopt more than one Rule 10b5-1 plan in any consecutive 12 month period that is a single-trade plan or is designed to effect the purchase and sale as a single transaction and which has the practical effect of requiring such a result;

•The Rule 10b5-1 plan must comply with any additional guidelines established by the General Counsel from time to time, which will be made available upon request; and

•The Rule 10b5-1 plan cannot be established, terminated or amended without the prior written approval of the General Counsel, or his or her designee.

Please note that the pre-clearance of a Rule 10b5-1 plan by the General Counsel in no way guarantees compliance with Rule 10b5-1 or reduces or eliminates a Covered Person’s obligations to comply with the U.S. securities laws, including the reporting and short-swing trading provisions under Section 16 of the Exchange Act. If any questions arise, Covered Persons should consult with their own counsel when implementing a Rule 10b5-1 plan.

6.Guidance on Understanding Material Nonpublic Information

What Information is Material?

“Material information” generally means information – whether positive or negative – that if disclosed could reasonably be expected to have an effect on the price of a company’s securities or that is likely to be considered important by a reasonable investor in determining whether to buy, sell or hold such securities. However, there is no precise definition and, as such, Covered Persons should take a broad and cautious view when evaluating whether a particular piece of information is “material.”

Information related to the following may be considered “material information” in certain circumstances:

•Changes in senior executive management;

•Unpublished financial or operational results or projections, including earnings information and changes to previously announced earnings guidance;

•Pending or proposed mergers, acquisitions, dispositions or other transactions;

•Significant product-related events, including major clinical trial results, FDA approvals, launches and recalls;

•Significant new contracts or changes in existing contractual relationships, including the
gain or loss of a significant customer or supplier;

•Pending or threatened government investigations or significant litigation (including disputes with customers, suppliers or contractors), or the resolution of such matters; and

•Significant cybersecurity incidents; and

5

•Other information that could result in substantial market share and/or revenue gains or losses.

The above list is illustrative only; other types of information may be considered “material” depending on the circumstances. The materiality of any particular information is circumstantial and subject to reassessment on a regular basis. If a Covered Person is unsure whether certain nonpublic information is material, they should presume that it is material and consult with the General Counsel before disclosing such information or trading in the securities of a company to which such information relates.

When is Information Nonpublic?

Information is “nonpublic” if it is not available to the general public. In order for information to be considered public, it must have been disclosed in Haemonetics’ public filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or widely disseminated in a manner making it generally available to investors, such as by a press release. In addition, even after a public announcement, a reasonable period of time must elapse in order for the market to react to the information. The circulation of rumors, even if accurate, does not constitute information that is adequately available to the general public.

7.Consequences of Violations

The purchase or sale of securities while aware of material nonpublic information, or the disclosure of material nonpublic information to others who then trade in Haemonetics securities, is prohibited by U.S. securities laws. Insider trading violations are pursued vigorously by the SEC, federal and state enforcement authorities. Punishment for insider trading violations is severe and could include significant fines and imprisonment. While the regulatory authorities concentrate their efforts on the individuals who trade, or who tip inside information to others who trade, U.S. securities laws also impose potential liability on companies and other “controlling persons” if they fail to take reasonable steps to prevent insider trading by company personnel. In addition, an individual’s failure to comply with this Policy may subject the individual to Haemonetics-imposed sanctions, including dismissal for cause, whether or not the employee’s failure to comply results in a violation of law.

8.Questions

Because the securities laws are comprehensive, far-reaching and constantly evolving, this Policy does not attempt to deal with all of the considerations which may be applicable to securities transactions. Please contact Haemonetics’ General Counsel for additional guidance if you have questions about this Policy or its application to a proposed transaction.

This Policy is the Securities Trading Policy referenced in the Haemonetics Code of Conduct and supersedes any previous policy of Haemonetics concerning insider trading. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Policy and any other materials previously distributed by Haemonetics, this Policy shall govern.

EX-97.1

Exhibit 97.1

HAEMONETICS CORPORATION

COMPENSATION RECOVERY POLICY

Haemonetics Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”), has adopted a Compensation Recovery Policy (this “Policy”) as described below.

1.    Overview

The Policy sets forth the circumstances and procedures under which the Company shall recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation from Covered Persons (as defined below) in accordance with rules issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the New York Stock Exchange. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given in Section 3 below.

2.    Compensation Recovery Requirement

In the event the Company is required to prepare a Financial Restatement, the Company shall recover reasonably promptly all Erroneously Awarded Compensation with respect to such Financial Restatement.

3.    Definitions

a.“Applicable Recovery Period” means the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the Restatement Date for a Financial Restatement. In addition, in the event the Company has changed its fiscal year: (i) any transition period of less than nine months occurring within or immediately following such three completed fiscal years shall also be part of such Applicable Recovery Period and (ii) any transition period of nine to 12 months will be deemed to be a completed fiscal year.

b.“Applicable Rules” means any rules or regulations adopted by the Exchange pursuant to Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act and any applicable rules or regulations adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 10D of the Exchange Act.

c.“Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company.

d.“Committee” means the Compensation Committee of the Board or, in the absence of such committee, a majority of independent directors serving on the Board.

e.“Covered Person” means any Executive Officer. A person’s status as a Covered Person with respect to Erroneously Awarded Compensation shall be determined as of the time of receipt of such Erroneously Awarded Compensation regardless of the person’s current role or status with the Company (e.g., if a person began service as an Executive Officer after the beginning of an Applicable Recovery Period, that person would not be considered a Covered Person with respect to Erroneously Awarded Compensation received before the person began service as an Executive Officer, but would be considered a Covered Person with respect to Erroneously Awarded Compensation received after the person began service as an Executive Officer where such person served as an Executive Officer at any time during the performance period for such Erroneously Awarded Compensation).

f."Effective Date” means October 2, 2023.

g.“Erroneously Awarded Compensation” means the amount of any Incentive-Based Compensation received by a Covered Person on or after the Effective Date and during the Applicable Recovery Period that exceeds the amount that otherwise would have been received by the Covered Person had

such compensation been determined based on the restated amounts in a Financial Restatement, computed without regard to any taxes paid. Calculation of Erroneously Awarded Compensation with respect to Incentive-Based Compensation based on stock price or total shareholder return, where the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation is not subject to mathematical recalculation directly from the information in a Financial Restatement, shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the Financial Restatement on the stock price or total shareholder return upon which the Incentive-Based Compensation was received, and the Company shall maintain documentation of the determination of such reasonable estimate and provide such documentation to the Exchange in accordance with the Applicable Rules. Incentive-Based Compensation is deemed received, earned, or vested when the Financial Reporting Measure is attained, not when the actual payment, grant, or vesting occurs.

h.“Exchange” means the New York Stock Exchange.

i.An “Executive Officer” means any person who served the Company in any of the following roles at any time during the performance period applicable to Incentive-Based Compensation such person received during service in such role: the president, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer (or if there is no such accounting officer the controller), any vice president in charge of a principal business unit, division, or function (such as sales, administration, or finance), any other officer who performs a policy making function, or any other person who performs similar policy making functions for the Company. Executive officers of parents or subsidiaries of the Company may be deemed executive officers of the Company if they perform such policy making functions for the Company.

j.“Financial Reporting Measures” mean measures that are determined and presented in accordance with the accounting principles used in preparing the Company’s financial statements, any measures that are derived wholly or in part from such measures (including, for example, a non-GAAP financial measure), and stock price and total shareholder return.

k.“Incentive-Based Compensation” means any compensation provided, directly or indirectly, by the Company or any of its subsidiaries that is granted, earned, or vested based, in whole or in part, upon the attainment of a Financial Reporting Measure.

l.A “Financial Restatement” means a restatement of previously issued financial statements of the Company due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required restatement to correct an error in previously-issued financial statements that is material to the previously-issued financial statements or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period.

m.“Received” means, with respect to any Incentive-Based Compensation, actual or deemed receipt, and Incentive-Based Compensation shall be deemed received in the Company’s fiscal period during which the Financial Reporting Measure specified in the Incentive-Based Compensation award is attained, even if payment or grant of the Incentive-Based Compensation occurs after the end of that period.

n.“Restatement Date” means, with respect to a Financial Restatement, the earlier to occur of: (i) the date the Board or the Audit Committee of the Board concludes, or reasonably should have concluded, that the Company is required to prepare the Financial Restatement or (ii) the date a court, regulator or other legally authorized body directs the Company to prepare the Financial Restatement.

2

4.    Exception to Compensation Recovery Requirement

The Company may elect not to recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation pursuant to this Policy if the Committee determines that recovery would be impracticable, and one or more of the following conditions, together with any further requirements set forth in the Applicable Rules, are met: (i) the direct expense paid to a third party, including outside legal counsel, to assist in enforcing this Policy would exceed the amount to be recovered, and the Company has made a reasonable attempt to recover such Erroneously Awarded Compensation; or (ii) recovery would likely cause an otherwise tax-qualified retirement plan to fail to be so qualified under applicable regulations.

5.    Tax Considerations

To the extent that, pursuant to this Policy, the Company is entitled to recover any Erroneously Awarded Compensation that is received by a Covered Person, the gross amount received (i.e., the amount the Covered Person received, or was entitled to receive, before any deductions for tax withholding or other payments) shall be returned by the Covered Person.

6.    Method of Compensation Recovery

The Committee shall determine, in its sole discretion, the method for recovering Erroneously Awarded Compensation hereunder, which may include, without limitation, any one or more of the following:

a.requiring reimbursement of cash Incentive-Based Compensation previously paid;

b.seeking recovery of any gain realized on the vesting, exercise, settlement, sale, transfer or other disposition of any equity-based awards;

c.cancelling or rescinding some or all outstanding vested or unvested equity-based awards;

d.adjusting or withholding from unpaid compensation or other set-off;

e.cancelling or offsetting against planned future grants of equity-based awards; and/or

f.any other method permitted by applicable law or contract.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Covered Person will be deemed to have satisfied such person’s obligation to return Erroneously Awarded Compensation to the Company if such Erroneously Awarded Compensation is returned in the exact same form in which it was received; provided that equity withheld to satisfy tax obligations will be deemed to have been received in cash in an amount equal to the tax withholding payment made. In addition, to the extent the Covered Person has already reimbursed the Company for any Erroneously Awarded Compensation received under any duplicative recovery obligations established by the Company or applicable law, it shall be appropriate for any such reimbursed amount to be credited to the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation that is subject to recovery under this Policy.

7.    Policy Interpretation

This Policy shall be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with the Applicable Rules and any other applicable law, and shall not limit any other compensation recovery or recoupment policy maintained by the Company and that is in effect as of the Effective Date or that may be established thereafter, including, but not limited to, the Company’s Clawback Policy as set forth in the Principles of Corporate Governance, or other policy in effect from time to time, and any successor policy, whether approved before or after the Effective Date. The Committee shall take into consideration any applicable interpretations and guidance of the SEC in interpreting this Policy, including, for example, in determining whether a financial restatement qualifies as a Financial Restatement hereunder. To the extent the Applicable Rules require recovery of Incentive-Based Compensation in additional circumstances besides

3

those specified above, nothing in this Policy shall be deemed to limit or restrict the right or obligation of the Company to recover Incentive-Based Compensation to the fullest extent required by the Applicable Rules.

8.    Policy Administration

This Policy shall be administered by the Committee. The Committee shall have such powers and authorities related to the administration of this Policy as are consistent with the governing documents of the Company and applicable law. The Committee shall have full power and authority to take, or direct the taking of, all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under this Policy and shall have full power and authority to take, or direct the taking of, all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of this Policy that the Committee deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of this Policy. The interpretation and construction by the Committee of any provision of this Policy and all determinations made by the Committee under this policy shall be final, binding and conclusive.

9.    Compensation Recovery Repayments not Subject to Indemnification

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any agreement with, or the organizational documents of, the Company or any of its subsidiaries, Covered Persons are not entitled to indemnification for Erroneously Awarded Compensation or for any claim or losses arising out of or in any way related to Erroneously Awarded Compensation recovered under this Policy. To the extent any such agreement or organizational document purports to provide otherwise, the Covered Person hereby irrevocably agrees to forego such indemnification.

10.    Acknowledgement

Each Executive Officer shall sign and return to the Company the Acknowledgement Form attached hereto as Exhibit A, pursuant to which such Executive Officer agrees to be bound by, and to comply with, the terms and conditions of this Policy. For the avoidance of doubt, each Executive Officer will be fully bound by, and must comply with, the Policy, whether or not such Executive Officer has executed and returned such acknowledgement form to the Company.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Haemonetics is a global healthcare company dedicated to providing a suite of innovative medical technology solutions that improve the quality, effectiveness and efficiency of care. We challenge ourselves to think big and make new possibilities a reality, so that our customers can make it matter for patients, every single day. Our technology addresses important medical markets: blood and plasma component collection, the surgical suite and hospital transfusion services. When used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Haemonetics” and the “Company” mean Haemonetics Corporation.

Haemonetics manages its business in three principal reporting segments: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. For that purpose, “Plasma” includes plasma collection devices and disposables, donor management software and supporting software solutions sold to plasma customers. “Blood Center” includes blood collection and processing devices and disposables for red cells, platelets and whole blood. “Hospital” is comprised of Interventional Technologies, which includes vascular closure devices and sensor-guided technologies, and Blood Management Technologies, which includes devices and methodologies for measuring coagulation characteristics of blood, specialized blood cell processing systems and disposables, surgical blood salvage systems and blood transfusion management software.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements present separately the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). All amounts presented, except per share amounts, are stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. There were no material recognized or unrecognized subsequent events except as described in Note 3, Acquisitions, Divestitures and Strategic Investments, Note 9, Property, Plant & Equipment and Note 12, Notes Payable and Long-Term Debt.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

12 Months Ended

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Fiscal Year

Haemonetics’ fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. Fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 include 52 weeks with each quarter having 13 weeks.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts including those of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, we assess our strategic investments to determine whether they meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and if so, whether the Company has controlling financial interest. Controlling financial interest occurs if the Company has both the power to direct activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company’s strategic investments did not meet the controlling financial interest criteria, as such no VIEs were consolidated during fiscal 2024, 2023 or 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from the amounts derived from its estimates and assumptions. The Company considers estimates to be critical if they are required to make assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time of estimation or if materially different estimates could have been made or it is reasonably likely that the accounting estimate will change from period to period. The

following are areas considered to be critical and require management’s judgment: revenue recognition, inventory provisions, intangible asset and goodwill valuation, legal and other judgmental accruals and income taxes.

Contingencies

The Company may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, patent infringement, product liability and environmental matters. Accruals recorded for various contingencies including legal proceedings, employee related litigation, self-insurance and other claims are based on judgment, the probability of losses and, where applicable, the consideration of opinions of internal and/or external legal counsel and actuarially determined estimates. When a loss is probable and a range of loss is established but a best estimate cannot be made, the Company records the minimum loss contingency amount, which could be zero. These estimates are often initially developed substantially earlier than the ultimate loss is known and the estimates are reevaluated each accounting period, as additional information is available. As information becomes known, an additional loss provision is recorded when either a best estimate can be made or the minimum loss amount is increased. When events result in an expectation of a more favorable outcome than previously expected, the best estimate is changed to a lower amount.

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue recognition policy is to recognize revenues from product sales, software and services in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2014-19, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of the Company’s goods or services. The Company considers revenue to be earned when all of the following criteria are met: it has a contract with a customer that creates enforceable rights and obligations; promised products or services are identified; the transaction price, or the consideration the Company expects to receive for transferring goods or providing services, is determinable and it has transferred control of the promised items to the customer. A promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer is identified as a performance obligation. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Some of the Company’s contracts have multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the estimated standalone selling prices of the good or service in the contract. For goods or services for which observable standalone selling prices are not available, the Company uses an expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

Product Revenues

The majority of the Company’s performance obligations related to product sales are satisfied at a point in time. Product revenue consists of the sale of its disposable products and the related equipment. The Company’s performance obligation related to product sales is satisfied upon shipment or delivery to the customer based on the specified terms set forth in the customer contract. Shipping and handling activities performed after a customer obtains control of the good are treated as fulfillment activities and are not considered to be a separate performance obligation. Revenue is recognized over time for maintenance plans provided to customers that provide services beyond the Company’s standard warranty period. Payment terms between customers related to product sales vary by the type of customer, country of sale, and the products or services offered and could result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

For product sales to distributors, the Company recognizes revenue for both equipment and disposables upon shipment to distributors, which is when its performance obligations are complete. The Company's standard contracts with its distributors state that title to the equipment passes to the distributors at point of shipment to a distributor’s location. The distributors are responsible for shipment to the end customer along with any installation, training and acceptance of the equipment by the end customer. Payments from distributors are not contingent upon resale of the product.

The Company also places equipment at customer sites. While the Company retains ownership of this equipment, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time provided they meet certain agreed to conditions. The Company recovers the cost of providing the equipment from the sale of its disposables.

Software and Other Revenues

To a lesser extent, the Company enters into other types of contracts including certain software licensing arrangements to provide software solutions to support its plasma, blood collection and hospital customers. A portion of its software sales are perpetual licenses typically accompanied by significant implementation services related to software customization as well as other professional and technical services. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of perpetual licenses and related customization services over time (the Company is creating or enhancing an asset that the customer controls) using an input method which requires it to make estimates of the extent of progress toward completion of the contract. When the Company provides other services, including in some instances hosting, technical support and maintenance, it recognizes these fees and charges over time (the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits), as performance obligations for these services are satisfied during the contract period. Certain of the Company’s software licensing arrangements are term-based licenses that include a per-collection or a usage-based fee related to the use of the license and the related technical support and hosting services. For these usage-based arrangements, the Company applies the revenue recognition exception resulting in revenue recognition occurring upon the later of actual usage or satisfaction of the related performance obligations. The payment terms for software licensing arrangements vary by customer pursuant to the terms set forth in the customer contract and result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Significant Judgments

Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price, which includes estimates of variable consideration related to rebates, product returns and volume discounts. These reserves, which are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales, are recorded as a reduction of revenue and a current liability. The Company’s estimates take into consideration historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the contract. The amount of variable consideration included in the net sales price is limited to the amount that is probable not to result in a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized in a future period. Revenue recognized in the current period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material. If the Company is unable to estimate the expected rebates reasonably, it records a liability for the maximum potential rebate or discount that could be earned. In circumstances where the Company provides upfront rebate payments to customers, it capitalizes the rebate payments and amortizes the resulting asset as a reduction of revenue using a systematic method over the life of the contract.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and contract assets, as well as customer advances, customer deposits and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference in timing between billing and revenue recognition primarily occurs in software licensing arrangements, resulting in contract assets and contract liabilities.

Practical Expedients

The Company elected not to disclose the value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. When applicable, the Company has also elected to use the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it is expected, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange at year-end while sales and expenses are translated at an average rate in effect during the year. The net effect of these translation adjustments is shown in the accompanying financial statements as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, including those resulting from intercompany transactions, are charged directly to earnings and included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income. The impact of foreign exchange on long-term intercompany loans, for which repayment has not been scheduled or planned, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include various instruments such as money market funds, U.S. government obligations and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less at date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair market value. As of March 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of investments in United States Government Agency and institutional money market funds.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company establishes a specific allowance for customers when it is probable that they will not be able to meet their financial obligations. Customer accounts are reviewed individually on a regular basis and reserves are established as deemed appropriate. The Company also maintains a general reserve using a percentage that is established based upon the age of its receivables and its collection history. The Company establishes allowances for balances not yet due and past due accounts based on past experience.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include the cost of material, labor and manufacturing overhead. Cost is determined with the first-in, first-out method. The Company has based its provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory primarily on its estimates of forecasted net sales. Significant changes in the timing or level of demand for the Company’s products result in recording additional provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory. Additionally, uncertain timing of next-generation product approvals, variability in product launch strategies, non-cancelable purchase commitments, product recalls and variation in product utilization all affect the Company’s estimates related to excess, expired and obsolete inventory.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization by charges to operations using the straight-line method in amounts estimated to recover the cost of the building and improvements, equipment and furniture and fixtures over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Classification	Estimated Useful Lives
Building	30-40 Years
Building improvements	5-20 Years
Plant equipment and machinery	3-15 Years
Office equipment and information technology	3-10 Years
Haemonetics equipment	3-7 Years

The Company evaluates the depreciation periods of property, plant and equipment to determine whether events or circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. All property, plant and equipment are also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

The Company’s installed base of devices includes devices owned by the Company and devices sold to the customer. The asset on its balance sheet classified as Haemonetics equipment consists of medical devices installed at customer sites but owned by Haemonetics. Generally, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time as long as they meet the conditions the Company has established, which among other things, generally include one or more of the following:

•Purchase and consumption of a certain level of disposable products

•Payment of monthly rental fees

•An asset utilization performance metric, such as performing a minimum level of procedures per month per device

Consistent with the impairment tests noted below for other intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company reviews Haemonetics equipment and the related useful lives of such equipment at least once a year, or more frequently if certain conditions arise, to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. To conduct these reviews, the Company estimates the future amount and timing of demand for disposables used

with these devices, from which it generates revenues. The Company also considers product life cycle in its evaluation of useful life and recoverability. Changes in expected demand can result in additional depreciation expense, which is classified as cost of goods sold. Any significant unanticipated changes in demand could impact the value of the Company’s devices and its reported operating results.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their useful lives or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed to operations as incurred. When the repair or maintenance costs significantly extend the life of the asset, these costs may be capitalized. When equipment and improvements are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is included in the consolidated statements of income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is instead reviewed for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for each of its reporting units.

A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company determines its reporting units by first identifying its operating segments and then by assessing whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company aggregates components within an operating segment that have similar economic characteristics. The Company’s reportable segments and reporting units are as follows: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. When the Company completes business combinations, the Company assigns goodwill to the reporting units that it expects to benefit from the respective business combination at the time of acquisition.

Under ASC Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment entities perform their goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount by either performing a qualitative or quantitative assessment. The Company may elect to perform only a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test when certain qualitative criteria are met that indicate that it is more likely than not the fair values of each reporting unit exceed their carrying values.

If the Company elects to perform a quantitative test, it determines carrying values of each reporting unit by allocating assets and liabilities, including corporate assets, which relate to a reporting unit’s operations and would be considered in determining its fair value, to the individual reporting units. The Company allocates assets and liabilities not directly related to a specific reporting unit, but from which the reporting unit benefits, based primarily on the respective revenue contribution of each reporting unit.

In addition, when performing a quantitative test, the Company uses the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value of each of its reporting units in preparing its goodwill impairment assessments. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting these after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The Company selected this method as being the most meaningful in preparing its goodwill assessments because the use of the income approach typically generates a more precise measurement of fair value than the market approach. In applying the income approach to its accounting for goodwill, the Company makes assumptions about the amount and timing of future expected cash flows, terminal value growth rates and appropriate discount rates. The amount and timing of future cash flows within the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis is based on its most recent operational budgets, long range strategic plans and other estimates. The terminal value growth rate is used to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the last projected period in the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis and reflects the Company’s best estimates for stable, perpetual growth of its reporting units. The Company uses estimates of market-participant risk adjusted weighted average cost of capital as a basis for determining the discount rates to apply to its reporting units’ future expected cash flows. The Company corroborates the valuations that arose from the discounted cash flow approach by performing both a market multiple valuation and by reconciling the aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its market capitalization at the time of the test. An impairment charge, if any, would then be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test whereas in fiscal 2023 and 2022, the Company performed quantitative assessments. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the results of the goodwill impairment test performed indicated that the estimated fair value of all of its reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values and there were no reporting units at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

The Company reviews intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment indicators at least annually or more frequently if certain conditions arise to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, or that a change in the remaining useful life is required. Conditions indicating that an impairment exists include, but are not limited to, a change in the competitive landscape, internal decisions to pursue new or different technology strategies, a loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the marketplace including prices paid for its products or the size of the market for its products.

When an impairment indicator exists, the Company tests the intangible asset for recoverability. For purposes of the recoverability test, the Company groups its amortizable intangible assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows if the intangible asset does not generate cash flows independent of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of the intangible asset (asset group) exceeds the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the intangible asset (asset group), the Company will write the carrying value down to the fair value in the period identified.

The Company generally calculates the fair value of its intangible assets as the present value of estimated future cash flows it expects to generate from the asset using a risk-adjusted discount rate. In determining its estimated future cash flows associated with its intangible assets, the Company uses estimates and assumptions about future revenue contributions, cost structures and remaining useful lives of the asset (asset group).

If the Company determines the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life should be reduced based on its expected use of the asset, the remaining carrying amount of the asset is amortized prospectively over the revised estimated useful life.

The Company has in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) intangible assets with indefinite lives. IPR&D assets are not amortized. The Company reviews these assets for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for its IPR&D assets. The Company makes assumptions about future cash flows, terminal value growth, costs for completion and appropriate discount rates. The Company elected qualitative assessments in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, which all indicated that the estimated fair value of the in-process research and development intangible asset exceeded its carrying value and it was not at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed

ASC Topic 985-20, Software - Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed, specifies that costs incurred internally in researching and developing a computer software product should be charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs should be capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers, at which point capitalized costs are amortized over their estimated useful life of 5 to 10 years. Technological feasibility is established when it has a detailed design of the software and when research and development activities on the underlying device, if applicable, are completed. The Company capitalizes costs associated with both software that it sells as a separate product and software that is embedded in a device.

The Company reviews the net realizable value of capitalized assets periodically to assess the recoverability of amounts capitalized. There were no impairment charges recorded during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022. In the future, the net realizable value may be adversely affected by the loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the market place, which could result in an impairment being recorded.

Other Current Liabilities

Other current liabilities represent items payable or expected to settle within the next twelve months. The items included in the fiscal year end balances were:

(In thousands)	March 30, 2024		April 1, 2023
Contract liabilities	31,242		30,209
All other	104,846		81,419
Total	$	136,088	$	111,628

Other Long-Term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities represent items that are not payable or expected to settle within the next twelve months.

Research and Development Expenses

All research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Advertising Costs

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income. Advertising expenses were $7.1 million, $7.2 million and $4.4 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income Taxes

The income tax provision is calculated for all jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The income tax provision process involves calculating current taxes due and assessing temporary differences arising from items that are taxable or deductible in different periods for tax and accounting purposes and are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for realizability and a valuation allowance is maintained for the portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets that are not more-likely-than-not realizable. All available evidence, both positive and negative, has been considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed against the deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 6, Income Taxes, for further information and discussion of the Company’s income tax provision and balances.

The Company files income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The Company’s financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of such positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Company records a liability for the portion of unrecognized tax benefits claimed that it has determined are not more-likely-than-not realizable. These tax reserves have been established based on management’s assessment as to the potential exposure attributable to the Company’s uncertain tax positions as well as interest and penalties attributable to these uncertain tax positions. All tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments are made as events occur that result in changes in judgment.

The Company evaluates at the end of each reporting period whether some or all of the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are permanently reinvested. The Company recognizes deferred income tax liabilities to the extent that management asserts that undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are not permanently reinvested or will not be permanently reinvested in the future. The Company’s position is based upon several factors including management’s evaluation of the Haemonetics and its subsidiaries’ financial requirements, the short-term and long-term operational and fiscal objectives of the Company and the tax consequences associated with the repatriation of earnings.

Convertible Senior Notes

Effective April 4, 2021, the Company accounted for convertible senior notes as a single liability measured at its amortized cost. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements below. At issuance, the carrying amount is calculated as the proceeds, net of initial debt issuance costs. The difference between the principal amount and carrying value is amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible senior notes using the effective interest rate method.

A detailed analysis of the terms of the convertible senior notes transactions is required to determine existence of any derivatives that may require separate mark-to-market accounting under applicable accounting guidance.

Derivative Instruments

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 815, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for the change in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. In addition, ASC 815 provides that, for derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in the fair value are either (a) offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or (b) recognized in equity until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge changes in fair value or cash flows. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculation purposes.

When the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings, the gains or losses on the forward foreign exchange rate contracts designated as hedges are recorded in net revenues, cost of goods sold, operating expenses and other expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of income, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transactions. The cash flows related to the gains and losses are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows as part of cash flows from operating activities. For those derivative instruments that are not designated as part of a hedging relationship the Company records the gains or losses in earnings currently. These gains and losses are intended to offset the gains and losses recorded on net monetary assets or liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies. The Company recorded foreign currency losses of $4.0 million, $1.0 million and $1.5 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses whether the cash flow hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flow of the hedged item. The Company manages the credit risk of its counterparties by dealing only with institutions that it considers financially sound and considers the risk of non-performance to be remote. Additionally, the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to changes in variable interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage and reduce the risk inherent in interest rate fluctuations.

The Company’s derivative instruments do not subject its earnings or cash flows to material risk, as gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset losses and gains on the item being hedged. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and it does not have any non-derivative instruments that are designated as hedging instruments pursuant to ASC 815.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company expenses the fair value of share-based awards granted to employees, board members and others, net of estimated forfeitures. To calculate the grant-date fair value of its stock options the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and for performance share units it uses Monte Carlo simulation models.

Costs Associated with Exit Activities

The Company records employee termination costs in accordance with ASC Topic 712, Compensation - Nonretirement and Postemployment Benefits, if it pays the benefits as part of an on-going benefit arrangement, which includes benefits provided as part of its established severance policies or that it provides in accordance with international statutory requirements. The Company accrues employee termination costs associated with an on-going benefit arrangement if the obligation is attributable to prior services rendered, the rights to the benefits have vested, the payment is probable and the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company accounts for employee termination benefits that represent a one-time benefit in accordance with ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. It records such costs into expense over the employee’s future service period, if any.

Other costs associated with exit activities may include contract termination costs, including costs related to leased facilities to be abandoned or subleased, consultant fees and impairments of long-lived assets. The costs are expensed in accordance with ASC Topic 420 and ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment and are included in costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Additionally, costs directly related to the Company’s active restructuring initiatives, including program management costs, accelerated depreciation and costs to transfer product lines among facilities are included within costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Refer to Note 5, Restructuring, for further information and discussion of its restructuring plans.

Valuation of Acquisitions

The Company allocates the amounts it pays for each acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition, including acquired identifiable intangible assets. The Company bases the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets on detailed valuations that use significant assumptions including forecasted cash flows, revenues attributable to existing technology and discount rates. When estimating the significant assumptions to be used in the valuation, the Company includes a consideration of current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business, and other relevant factors. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The Company allocates any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired to goodwill.

Strategic Investments

The Company holds strategic investments, including preferred stock and a special share, in privately held entities. The special share allows the Company to acquire the related entity in accordance with an agreement between the parties. As these equity instruments do not have readily determinable fair values, they have been measured using the measurement alternative, at cost less impairment. The carrying amount for these instruments would be subsequently adjusted for observable price changes, or prices in orderly transactions for an identical investment or similar investment of the same issuer. In addition, these investments are periodically evaluated for impairment. The investments are classified as other long-term assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Company did not record any adjustments to the carrying value of strategic investments in fiscal 2024 or 2023.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and accounts receivable. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s ten largest customers accounted for approximately 48%, 48% and 45% of net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2024, one Plasma customer, CSL Limited (together with its affiliates, “CSL”), was greater than 10% of total net revenues and accounted for approximately 13% of net revenues. In addition to CSL, two customers also accounted for greater than 10% of the Plasma segment’s net revenues and two customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Blood Center segment’s net revenues, but did not exceed 10% of total net revenues, in fiscal 2024.

Certain markets and industries can expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For example, in the Plasma business unit, sales are concentrated with several large customers. As a result, accounts receivable extended to any one of these biopharmaceutical customers can be significant at any point in time. Also, a portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the U.S. include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries’ national economies. The Company has not incurred significant losses on government receivables. The Company continually evaluates all government receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement

practices. If the financial condition of customers or the countries’ healthcare systems deteriorate such that their ability to make payments is uncertain, allowances may be required in future periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Implemented

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2019-12 — Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new guidance improves consistent application of and simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principals in Topic 740. The Company adopted ASC Update No. 2019-12 effective April 4, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASC ASU Update No. 2020-06 Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments simplify the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASC Update No. 2020-06 effective April 4, 2021 using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a decrease of $61.2 million to additional paid-in capital, a decrease to non-current deferred tax liabilities of $20.0 million, and an increase of $80.3 million to non-current convertible notes, net, on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, retained earnings was adjusted to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods related to the debt discount and the convertible notes no longer have a debt discount that will be amortized, net of taxes. The impact to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2021 is an increase of $1.0 million.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2021-05 — Leases (Topic 842). The new guidance requires a lessor to classify a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease at lease commencement if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria of ASC 842 and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The Company prospectively adopted ASC Update No. 2021-05 effective in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Standards to be Implemented

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The new guidance requires public entities to provide expanded disclosures over significant segment expenses and additional disclosures related to the chief operating decision maker. ASC Update No. 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its interim and annual report disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASC Update No. 2023-09 requires public entities to provide detailed income tax disclosures, including rate reconciliations and disaggregated income tax payment information, on an annual basis. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. ASC Update No. 2023-09 is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2026 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company is currently evaluating the impact to its annual report disclosures.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

REVENUE

REVENUE

As of March 30, 2024, the Company had $26.8 million of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations related to executed contracts with an original duration of one year or more. The Company expects to recognize approximately 79% of this amount as revenue within the next twelve months and the remaining balance thereafter.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and contract assets, as well as customer advances, customer deposits and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference in timing between billing and revenue recognition primarily occurs in software licensing arrangements, resulting in contract assets and contract liabilities.

As of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company had contract liabilities of $31.2 million and $30.2 million, respectively. During fiscal 2024, we recognized $27.9 million of revenue that was included in the above April 1, 2023 contract liability balance. Contract liabilities are classified as other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company’s contract assets were immaterial.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

RESTRUCTURING

RESTRUCTURING

On an ongoing basis, the Company reviews the global economy, the healthcare industry, and the markets in which it competes to identify opportunities for efficiencies, enhance commercial capabilities, align its resources and offer its customers better solutions. In order to realize these opportunities, the Company undertakes restructuring-type activities to transform its business.

Operational Excellence Program

In July 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Operational Excellence Program (the “2020 Program”) and delegated authority to the Company’s management to determine the detail of the initiatives that will comprise the program. During fiscal 2022, the Company revised the program to improve product and service quality, reduce cost principally in its manufacturing and supply chain operations and ensure sustainability while helping to offset impacts from a previously announced customer loss, rising inflationary pressures and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company expects to incur aggregate charges between $85 million and $95 million by the end of fiscal 2025 under the program. The majority of charges will result in cash outlays, including severance and other employee costs, and will be incurred as the specific actions required to execute these initiatives are identified and approved. During fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred $9.8 million, $11.5 million and $28.7 million of restructuring and restructuring related costs under this program, respectively. Total cumulative charges under this program are $77.0 million as of March 30, 2024.

Portfolio Rationalization Initiatives

In November 2023, the Company announced its plans to end of life the ClotPro analyzer system within the Hospital business unit and certain products within the Blood Center business unit, primarily in Whole Blood, including the associated manufacturing operations and closure of certain other facilities.

The following table summarizes the activity for restructuring reserves related to portfolio rationalization initiatives, the 2020 Program and prior programs for the fiscal years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, substantially all of which relates to employee severance and other employee costs:

The Company’s reported tax rate is impacted by the jurisdictional mix of earnings in any given period as the foreign jurisdictions in which it operates have tax rates that differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate.

The Company’s subsidiary in Malaysia has been granted a full income tax exemption to manufacture whole blood and apheresis devices that could be in effect for up to ten years, provided certain conditions are satisfied. The income tax exemption was in effect beginning June 1, 2016.

Tax effected, significant temporary differences comprising the net deferred tax liability are as follows:

Net deferred tax liabilities	$	(54,905)	$	(30,954)

The increase in the worldwide net deferred tax liability is primarily due to the acquisition of intangibles with book basis in excess of tax basis during fiscal 2024, partially offset by research expenditures capitalized for tax purposes.

The valuation allowance increase of $1.4 million during fiscal 2024 is primarily due to acquired foreign deferred tax assets for which the valuation allowance was recorded in acquisition accounting and changes in the valuation allowance in certain foreign jurisdictions based on current year operating results. The Company has assessed, on a jurisdictional basis, the available means of recovering deferred tax assets, including the ability to carry-back net operating losses, the existence of reversing temporary differences, the availability of tax planning strategies and available sources of future taxable income. It has also considered the ability to implement certain strategies that would, if necessary, be implemented to accelerate taxable income and use expiring deferred tax assets. The Company has concluded future taxable income can be considered a source of income to realize a benefit for deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions. The Company believes it is able to support the deferred tax assets recognized as of the end of the year based on all of the available evidence. The worldwide net deferred tax liability as of March 30, 2024 includes deferred tax liabilities related to amortizable tax basis in goodwill and other indefinite lived assets, which can only be used as a source of income to benefit other indefinite lived deferred tax assets.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company maintains a valuation allowance against certain U.S. federal tax credit carryforwards and U.S. state net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards that are not more-likely-than-not realizable as well as a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets of certain foreign subsidiaries.

In connection with the March 2021 acquisition of Cardiva Medical, Inc., the Company acquired federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of $150.9 million and $93.3 million, respectively. The Company also acquired federal and state tax research credit carryforwards of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may become subject to an annual limitation in the event of certain cumulative changes in the ownership interest of significant shareholders over a three-year period in excess of 50 percent as defined under Section 382 and 383 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, respectively, as well as similar state provisions. The amount of the annual limitation is determined based on the value of the Company immediately prior to the ownership change. The Company conducted a Section 382 study covering the period of inception (July 2002) through March 1, 2021. The study concluded that ownership changes occurred during that

period which limit the amount of the Company’s net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards that can be utilized before expiring. The remaining carryforwards disclosed in the deferred tax table above represent the amount of attributes that can be utilized based on the results of the study. The Company does not believe it has had an ownership change from March 2, 2021 through March 30, 2024 that would result in a limitation. Subsequent ownership changes may further affect the limitation in future years.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company has U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of $28.2 million of which $8.2 million will begin to expire in fiscal 2025 and $20.0 million can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has U.S. state net operating losses of $56.3 million of which $51.0 million will expire at various times between fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2040 and $5.3 million can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has federal and state tax credits of $0.6 million and $5.5 million, respectively, which will begin to expire in fiscal 2029 and fiscal 2028, respectively.

As of March 30, 2024, the Company has Canadian federal and provincial net operating loss carryforwards of $19.6 million and $21.2 million, respectively, which will expire from fiscal 2036 through fiscal 2044. The Company has other foreign net operating losses of approximately $4.0 million that are available to reduce future income which can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has foreign research tax credits of $3.5 million which will begin to expire in fiscal 2027.

As of March 30, 2024, substantially all of the unremitted earnings of the Company have been taxed in the U.S. The Company has not provided U.S. deferred income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries of approximately $96.3 million as such amounts are considered to be indefinitely reinvested in the business. The accumulated earnings in the foreign subsidiaries are primarily utilized to fund working capital requirements as its subsidiaries continue to expand their operations and to fund future foreign acquisitions. The Company does not believe it is practicable to estimate the amount of income taxes payable on the earnings that are indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, however a significant portion of the unremitted earnings could be remitted without a future tax cost.

The income tax provision differs from the tax provision computed at the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate due to the following:

(In thousands)	2024				2023				2022
Tax at federal statutory rate	$	31,892	21.0	%	$	29,695	21.0	%	$	13,362	21.0	%

Income tax provision	$	34,307	22.6	%	$	26,002	18.4	%	$	20,254	31.8	%

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $34.3 million, representing an effective tax rate of 22.6%. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%, primarily due to state taxes, non-deductible executive compensation and disallowed stock compensation expense, partially offset by jurisdictional mix of earnings, impact of foreign tax law changes and research credits generated.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

Unrecognized tax benefits represent uncertain tax positions for which reserves have been established. As of March 30, 2024, the Company had $3.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.1 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. As of April 1, 2023, the Company had $3.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.2 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. As of April 2, 2022, the Company had $3.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $3.1 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized.

The following table summarizes the activity related to its gross unrecognized tax benefits for the fiscal years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022:

(In thousands)	March 30, 2024		April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Beginning Balance	$	3,941	$	3,939	$	6,107
Additions for tax positions of current year	234		292		219
Reductions of tax positions	(198)		(290)		(808)
Settlements of tax positions	—		—		(1,579)
Expiration of statute of limitations	(234)		—		—
Ending Balance	$	3,743	$	3,941	$	3,939

As of March 30, 2024, the Company anticipates that the liability for unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions could change by up to $2.5 million in the next twelve months, as a result of closure of various statutes of limitations.

The Company’s historical practice has been and continues to be to recognize interest and penalties related to federal, state and foreign income tax matters in income tax expense. Approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million of gross interest and penalties were accrued at March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively, and are not included in the amounts above. Additionally, $0.1 million of accrued interest and penalties was included in income tax provision for each of the years ended March 30, 2024, April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022.

The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, files federal, state and foreign income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, it is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income tax examinations for years before fiscal 2021 and foreign income tax examinations for years before fiscal 2019. To the extent that the Company has tax attribute carry-forwards, the tax years in which the attribute was generated may still be adjusted upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service, state, or foreign tax authorities to the extent utilized in a future period.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations.

(In thousands, except per share amounts)	2024		2023		2022
Basic EPS
Net income	$	117,558	$	115,401	$	43,375
Weighted average shares	50,706		50,783		51,047
Basic income per share	$	2.32	$	2.27	$	0.85
Diluted EPS
Net income	$	117,558	$	115,401	$	43,375
Basic weighted average shares	50,706		50,783		51,047

Diluted weighted average shares	51,397		51,420		51,353
Diluted income per share	$	2.29	$	2.24	$	0.84

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the Company’s weighted-average outstanding common shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using its weighted-average outstanding common shares including the dilutive effect of stock awards as determined under the treasury stock method and the convertible senior notes as determined under the net share settlement method. From the time of the issuance of the convertible senior notes, the average market price of the Company’s common shares has been less than the initial conversion price, and consequently no shares have been included in diluted earnings per share for the conversion value of the convertible senior notes. For fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, weighted average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, excludes the impact of 0.6 million, 0.6 million and 0.9 million anti-dilutive shares, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

In August 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a three-year share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of Haemonetics common stock, based on market conditions, through August 2025. Under the share repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase, from time to time, outstanding shares of common stock in accordance with applicable laws on the open market, including under trading plans established pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, number and value of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company at its discretion and will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, applicable legal requirements and compliance with the terms of loan covenants. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time, and the Company has no obligation to repurchase any amount of its common stock under the program.

In fiscal 2023, the Company completed a $75.0 million repurchase of its common stock pursuant to an accelerated share repurchase agreement (“ASR”) entered into with Citibank N.A. in August 2022. The total number of shares repurchased under the ASR was 1.0 million at an average price per share upon final settlement of $75.20.

As of March 30, 2024, the total remaining authorization for repurchases of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program was $225.0 million.

LEASES

Lessee Activity

The Company has operating leases for office space, land, warehouse and manufacturing space, R&D laboratories, vehicles and certain equipment. Finance leases are not significant. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are generally not recorded on the balance sheet and expense for these leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company accounts for the lease components and the non-lease components as a single lease component. The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to approximately 30 years, some of which may include options to extend the leases for up to 10 years and some include options to terminate early. These options have been included in the determination of the lease liability when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. The Company does not have any leases that include residual value guarantees.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or contains a lease based on the unique facts and circumstances present at the inception of an arrangement. Operating lease liabilities and their corresponding right-of-use assets are recorded based on the present value of lease payments over the expected lease term. The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As such, the Company utilizes the appropriate incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Certain adjustments to the right-of-use asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received.

Lessor Activity

Assets on the Company’s balance sheet classified as Haemonetics equipment primarily consists of medical devices installed at customer sites but owned by Haemonetics. These devices are leased to customers under contractual arrangements that typically include an operating or sales-type lease as well as the purchase and consumption of a certain level of disposable products. Sales-type leases are not significant. Contract terms vary by customer and may include options to terminate the contract or options to extend the contract. Where devices are provided under operating lease arrangements, a substantial majority of the entire lease revenue is variable and subject to subsequent non-lease component (disposable products) sales. The allocation of revenue between the lease and non-lease components is based on stand-alone selling prices. Operating lease revenue represents approximately 3 percent of the Company’s total net sales.

Convertible Senior Notes

The Company has $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0% convertible senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The 2026 Notes are governed by the terms of the Indenture between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The total net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and debt issuance costs, were approximately $486.7 million. The 2026 Notes will mature on March 1, 2026, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.

Holders may convert their notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding September 1, 2025 only under the following circumstances:

•During any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) beginning after June 30, 2021, if, the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price on each applicable trading day for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) in the period of the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter;

•During the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period in which, for each day of that period, the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 2026 Notes for such trading day was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such trading day;

•The Company issues to common stockholders any rights, options, or warrants, entitling them, for a period of not more than 60 days, to purchase shares of common stock at a price per share less than the average closing sale price of 10 consecutive trading days, or the Company’s election to make a distribution to common stockholders exceeding 10% of the previous day’s closing sale price;

•Upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, as set forth in the indenture governing the 2026 Notes; or

•Prior to the related redemption date if the Company calls the 2026 Notes for redemption.

On or after September 1, 2025, until the close of business on the scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2026 Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. The conversion rate for the 2026 Notes is 5.7033 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which is equal to an initial conversion price of approximately $175.34 per share of the Company’s common stock), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Indenture. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be converted and pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at the Company’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of the Company’s conversion obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being converted. If a make-whole adjustment event, as described in the Indenture, occurs and a holder elects to convert its 2026 Notes in connection with such make-whole adjustment event, such holder may be entitled to an increase in the conversion rate as described in the Indenture.

During fiscal 2024, the conditions allowing holders of the 2026 Notes to convert have not been met. The 2026 Notes were therefore not convertible as of March 30, 2024 and were classified as long-term debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The 2026 Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 5, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive), including the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption, during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately before the date the Company sends the related redemption notice at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the redemption date. Upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes involving the Company, holders of the 2026 Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their 2026 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be repurchased, plus

accrued and unpaid interest.

On April 4, 2021, the Company adopted ASC Update No. 2020-06 using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a decrease of $61.2 million to additional paid-in capital, a decrease to non-current deferred tax liabilities of $20.0 million, and an increase of $80.3 million to non-current convertible notes, net, on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, retained earnings was adjusted to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods related to the debt discount and the convertible notes no longer have a debt discount that will be amortized, net of taxes. The impact to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2021 is an increase of $1.0 million.

As of March 30, 2024, the $500.0 million principal balance was netted down by the $5.2 million of remaining debt issuance costs, resulting in a net convertible note payable of $494.8 million. Interest expense related to the 2026 Notes was $2.7 million for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, which is entirely attributable to the amortization of the debt issuance costs. The debt issuance costs are amortized at an effective interest rate of 0.5%.

Capped Calls

In connection with the issuance of the 2026 Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions with certain counterparties (“Capped Calls”). The Capped Calls each have an initial strike price of approximately $175.34 per share, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to the initial conversion price of the 2026 Notes. The Capped Calls have initial cap prices of $250.48 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Capped Calls are expected to partially offset the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Notes, with such offset subject to a cap based on the cap price. The Capped Calls cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, approximately 2.85 million shares of the Company’s common stock. For accounting purposes, the Capped Calls are separate transactions, and not part of the 2026 Notes. As these transactions meet certain accounting criteria, the Capped Calls are recorded in stockholders’ equity and are not accounted for as derivatives.

Credit Facilities

On June 15, 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement with certain lenders that provided for a $350.0 million term loan and a $350.0 million revolving credit facility (together with the term loan, as amended from time to time, the “2018 Credit Facilities”) that were each scheduled to mature on June 15, 2023.

On July 26, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the 2018 Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through June 2025. The amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $280.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which have been used to settle the balance of the term loan under the 2018 Credit Facilities, and a $420.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2022 Revised Credit Facilities”). Loans under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. Under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain certain leverage and interest coverage ratios specified in the amended and restated credit agreement as well as other customary non-financial affirmative and negative covenants.

The Company applied modification accounting for the credit facility refinancing. For the term loan under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, for fiscal 2023, the Company recognized interest expense of $0.5 million for third party fees incurred and capitalized $0.2 million of lender fees related to the term loan. For fiscal 2023, the Company capitalized $1.1 million of lender

fees and third-party costs incurred in the refinancing related to the revolving credit facility under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities.

At March 30, 2024, $262.5 million was outstanding under the term loan with an effective interest rate of 6.9% and $50.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility with an effective interest rate of 6.8%. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility during fiscal 2024 were to fund the OpSens acquisition. The Company also had $18.7 million of uncommitted operating lines of credit to fund its global operations under which there were no outstanding borrowings as of March 30, 2024.

Under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not to exceed 3.5:1.0 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio not to be less than 4.0:1.0 during periods when the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities are outstanding.

In addition, the Company is required to satisfy these covenants, on a pro forma basis, in connection with any new borrowings (including any letter of credit issuances) on the revolving credit facility as of the time of such borrowings. The Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio is calculated as the consolidated EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense while the Consolidated Net Leverage ratio is calculated as consolidated total debt minus liquidity, divided by consolidated EBITDA. Consolidated EBITDA includes EBITDA adjusted by non-recurring and unusual transactions specifically as defined in the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities.

The 2022 Revised Credit Facilities also contain usual and customary non-financial affirmative and negative covenants that include certain restrictions with respect to subsequent indebtedness, liens, loans and investments (including acquisitions), financial reporting obligations, mergers, consolidations, dispositions, dissolutions or liquidation, asset sales, affiliate transactions, change of its business, capital expenditures, share repurchase and other restricted payments. These covenants are subject to exceptions and qualifications set forth in the credit agreement.

Any failure to comply with the financial and operating covenants of the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities would prevent the Company from being able to borrow additional funds and would constitute a default, which could result in, among other things, the amounts outstanding including all accrued interest and unpaid fees, becoming immediately due and payable. In addition, the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities include customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary cure periods. As of March 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with the covenants.

In April 2024, subsequent to the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, the Company entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with certain lenders to refinance the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through April 2029. The second amended and restated credit agreement provides for a $250.0 million senior unsecured term loan, the proceeds of which, along with $12.5 million of cash on hand, have been used to retire the balance of the term loan under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, and a $750.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (together, the “2024 Revised Credit Facilities”), which constitutes a $330.0 million increase from the revolving credit facility under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities. Loans under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities will initially bear interest at an annual rate equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement), which is subject to a floor of 0.0%, plus an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio (as specified in the second amended and restated credit agreement) at the applicable measurement date. Adjusted Term SOFR Rate loans are also subject to a credit spread adjustment of 0.0% per annum. The revolving credit facility carries an unused fee that ranges from 0.125% to 0.250% annually based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio at the applicable measurement date. The 2024 Revised Credit Facilities mature on April 30, 2029. The principal amount of the term loan under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities amortizes quarterly through the maturity date at a rate of 2.5% for the first three years following the closing date, 5.0% for the fourth year following the closing date and 7.5% for the fifth year following the closing date, with the unpaid balance due at maturity. As of April 30, 2024, the outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility was $230.0 million, which increased from the end of fiscal 2024, primarily due to borrowings associated with the acquisition of Attune Medical on April 1, 2024.

Under the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio not to exceed 4.0:1.0 or, on up to two occasions during the term of the facility, 4.5:1.0 for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended immediately following acquisitions meeting certain criteria specified in the agreement.

Commitment Fee

Pursuant to the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities, the Company is required to pay, on the last day of each calendar quarter, a commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The commitment fee is subject to a pricing grid based on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. The commitment fee ranges from 0.125% to 0.250%. The current commitment fee on the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facility is 0.175%.

The commitment fees noted above did not change pursuant to the 2024 Revised Credit Facilities.

Debt Issuance Costs and Interest

Expenses associated with the issuance of the term loan were capitalized and are amortized to interest expense over the life of the senior unsecured term loan using the effective interest method. As of March 30, 2024, the $262.5 million term loan balance was netted down by the $0.5 million of remaining debt discount, resulting in a net note payable of $262.0 million.

Interest expense was $19.5 million, $13.0 million and $5.8 million for fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accrued interest associated with the outstanding debt is included as a component of other current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of both March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, the Company had an insignificant amount of accrued interest associated with the outstanding debt.

The future aggregate amount of debt maturities, adjusted for the impact of the Company’s debt refinancing in April 2024 as discussed above, are as follows:

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company manufactures, markets and sells its products globally. For the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, 25.9% of the Company’s sales were generated outside the U.S. in local currencies. The Company also incurs certain manufacturing, marketing and selling costs in international markets in local currency.

Accordingly, earnings and cash flows are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. Dollar, the Company’s reporting currency. The Company has a program in place that is designed to mitigate the exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. That program includes the use of derivative financial instruments to minimize, for a period of time, the impact on its financial results from changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the anticipated cash flows from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, primarily Japanese Yen and Euro, and to a lesser extent Swiss Franc and Mexican Peso. This does not eliminate the impact of the volatility of foreign exchange rates. However, because the Company generally enters into forward contracts one year out, rates are fixed for a one-year period, thereby facilitating financial planning and resource allocation.

Designated Foreign Currency Hedge Contracts

All of the Company’s designated foreign currency hedge contracts as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023 were cash flow hedges under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The Company records the effective portion of any change in the fair value of designated foreign currency hedge contracts in other comprehensive income until the related third-party transaction occurs. Once the related third-party transaction occurs, the Company reclassifies the effective portion of any related gain or loss on the designated foreign currency hedge contracts to earnings. In the event the hedged forecasted transaction does not occur, or it becomes probable that it will not occur, the Company will reclassify the amount of any gain or loss on the related cash flow hedge to earnings at that time. The Company had designated foreign currency hedge contracts outstanding in the contract amount of $74.0 million as of March 30, 2024 and $51.8 million as of April 1, 2023. At March 30, 2024, a gain of $2.8 million, net of tax, will be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months. All currency cash flow hedges outstanding as of March 30, 2024 mature within twelve months.

Non-Designated Foreign Currency Contracts

The Company manages its exposure to changes in foreign currency on a consolidated basis to take advantage of offsetting transactions and balances. It uses foreign currency forward contracts as a part of its strategy to manage exposure related to foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. These foreign currency forward contracts are entered into for periods consistent with currency transaction exposures, generally one month. They are not designated as cash flow or fair value hedges under ASC 815. These forward contracts are marked-to-market with changes in fair value recorded to earnings. The Company had non-designated foreign currency hedge contracts under ASC 815 outstanding in the contract amount of $39.9 million as of March 30, 2024 and $44.7 million as of April 1, 2023.

Interest Rate Swaps

Part of the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to changes in variable interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage and reduce the risk inherent in interest rate fluctuations.

On June 15, 2018, the Company entered into the 2018 Credit Facilities which provided for a $350.0 million term loan and a $350.0 million revolving credit facility. In August 2018, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements to pay an average fixed rate of 2.80% plus the applicable rate on a total notional value of $241.9 million of debt, or 70% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan. As a result of the Company’s refinancing of the 2018 Credit Facilities in July 2022, as discussed below, the 2018 interest rate swaps were amended in September 2022 to align with the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) rate rather than LIBOR (the “Amended Swaps”). In order to avoid dedesignation, the Company elected certain practical expedients under ASC 848. As a result, the Company’s earnings and cash flows are exposed to interest rate risk from changes to SOFR. The Amended Swaps matured on June 15, 2023.

On July 26, 2022, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement to refinance the 2018 Credit Facilities and extend their maturity date through June 2025. The 2022 Revised Credit Facilities include a $280.0 million senior unsecured term loan and a $420.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility. Loans under the 2022 Revised Credit Facilities bear interest at an annual rate equal to the 1-month USD Term SOFR plus 0.10% and an applicable rate ranging from 1.125% to 1.750% based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio. In September 2022, the Company entered into four additional interest rate swaps, which when combined with the Amended Swaps, resulted in an average blended fixed interest rate of 3.57% plus the applicable rate on 70% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan until mid-June 2023 and 4.12% plus the applicable rate thereafter on 80% of the notional value until the maturity date in June 2025. The Company has concluded that the two remaining interest rate swaps entered into during September 2022, which cover 80% of the notional value of the unsecured term loan through maturity in June 2025, are effective and qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

The Company held the following interest rate swaps as of March 30, 2024:

Hedged Item	Original Notional Amount		Notional Amount as of March 30, 2024		Designation Date	Effective Date	Termination Date	Fixed Interest Rate	Estimated Fair Value Assets (Liabilities)
(In thousands)
1-month USD Term SOFR	109,900		106,400		9/23/2022	6/15/2023	6/15/2025	4.08%	900
1-month USD Term SOFR	109,900		105,000		9/23/2022	6/15/2023	6/15/2025	4.15%	835
Total	$	219,800	$	211,400					$	1,735

For fiscal 2024, the Company recorded a gain of $2.2 million, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss to recognize the effective portion of the fair value of the swaps that qualify as cash flow hedges.

Trade Receivables

In the ordinary course of business, the Company grants trade credit to its customers on normal credit terms. In an effort to reduce its credit risk, the Company (i) establishes credit limits for all customers, (ii) performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition, (iii) monitors the payment history and aging of customers’ receivables and (iv) monitors open orders against an individual customer’s outstanding receivable balance.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses is maintained for trade accounts receivable based on the expected collectability, the historical collection experience, the length of time an account is outstanding, the financial position of the customer and information provided by credit rating services. The Company has not experienced significant customer payment defaults, or identified other significant collectability concerns.

The following is a roll forward of the allowance for credit losses:

Other Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exit price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance establishes the following three-level hierarchy used for measuring fair value:

•Level 1 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are other observable inputs, including quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities and market-corroborated inputs.

•Level 3 — Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs based on management’s best estimate of inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date, including assumptions about risk.

The Company’s money market funds carried at fair value are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices.

Fair Value of Derivative Instruments

The following table presents the effect of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges and those not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 in its consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024.

Derivative Instruments	Amount of Gain Recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss		Amount of Gain (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into Earnings		Location in Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income	Amount of Gain Excluded from Effectiveness Testing		Location in Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income
(In thousands)

Non-designated foreign currency hedge contracts	—		—			$	1,510	Interest and other expense, net
Designated interest rate swaps, net of tax	$	2,148	$	(5)	Interest and other expense, net

The Company did not have fair value hedges or net investment hedges outstanding as of March 30, 2024 or April 1, 2023. As of March 30, 2024, no material deferred taxes were recognized for designated foreign currency hedges.

ASC 815 requires all derivative instruments to be recognized at their fair values as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative instruments using the framework prescribed by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, by considering the estimated amount it would receive or pay to sell or transfer these instruments at the reporting date and by taking into account current interest rates, currency exchange rates, current interest rate curves, interest rate volatilities, the creditworthiness of the counterparty for assets, and its creditworthiness for liabilities. In certain instances, the Company may utilize financial models to measure fair value. Generally, the Company uses inputs that include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; other observable inputs for the asset or liability; and inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data by correlation or other means. As of March 30, 2024, the Company has classified its derivative assets and liabilities within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy prescribed by ASC 815, as discussed below, because these observable inputs are available for substantially the full term of its derivative instruments.

The following tables present the fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments as they appear in its consolidated balance sheets as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023:

Foreign currency hedge contracts - The fair value of foreign currency hedge contracts was measured using significant other observable inputs and valued by reference to over-the-counter quoted market prices for similar instruments. The Company does not believe that the fair value of these derivative instruments differs significantly from the amount that could be realized upon settlement or maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a significant effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Interest rate swaps - The fair values of interest rate swaps are measured using the present value of expected future cash flows using market-based observable inputs, including credit risk and interest rate yield curves. The Company does not believe that the fair values of these derivative instruments differ significantly from the amounts that could be realized upon settlement or maturity, or that the changes in fair value will have a significant effect on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Contingent consideration - The fair value of contingent consideration liabilities is based on significant unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions, and is measured based on the probability-weighted present value of the payments expected to be made. Accordingly, the fair value of contingent consideration has been classified as level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The fair value of the 2026 Notes as of March 30, 2024 was $460.1 million, which was determined by using the market price on the last trading day of the reporting period and is considered as level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The senior unsecured term loan (which is carried at amortized cost), accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value.

Defined Contribution Plans

The Company has a Savings Plus Plan (the “401k Plan”) that allows its U.S. employees to accumulate savings on a pre-tax basis. In addition, matching contributions are made to the 401k Plan based upon pre-established rates. The Company’s matching contributions amounted to approximately $8.1 million, $6.9 million and $6.3 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Upon the Company’s Board of Directors’ approval, additional discretionary contributions can also be made. No discretionary contributions were made for the 401k Plan in fiscal 2024, 2023, or 2022.

Some of the Company’s subsidiaries also have defined contribution plans, to which both the employee and the employer make contributions. The employer contributions to these plans totaled $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Defined Benefit Plans

ASC Topic 715, Compensation — Retirement Benefits, requires an employer to: (a) recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan’s over-funded status or a liability for a plan’s under-funded status; (b) measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit post retirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Accordingly, the Company is required to report changes in its funded status in comprehensive loss on its consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity and consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Benefits under these plans are generally based on either career average or final average salaries and creditable years of service as defined in the plans. The annual cost for these plans is determined using the projected unit credit actuarial cost method that includes actuarial assumptions and estimates that are subject to change.

Some of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all full time employees at those subsidiaries. Net periodic benefit costs for the plans in the aggregate include the following components:

(In thousands)	2024		2023		2022
Service cost	$	1,316	$	1,453	$	1,714

One of the benefit plans is funded by benefit payments made by the Company through the purchase of reinsurance contracts that do not qualify as plan assets under ASC Topic 715. Accordingly, that plan has no assets included in the information presented above. The total asset value associated with the reinsurance contracts was $7.0 million and $7.1 million at March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively. The total liability for this plan, which is included in the table above, was $7.8 million and $7.5 million as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023, respectively.

The accumulated benefit obligation for all plans was $30.1 million and $25.2 million for fiscal 2024 and 2023, respectively. There were no plans where the plan assets were greater than the accumulated benefit obligation as of March 30, 2024 and April 1, 2023.

The components of the change recorded in the Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss related to its defined benefit plans, net of tax, are as follows (in thousands):

Balance as of April 3, 2021	$	(560)
Actuarial gain	2,532
Prior service cost	$	(194)
Plan settlements	(159)
Balance as of April 2, 2022	$	1,619
Actuarial gain	2,695
Prior service cost	46
Plan settlements	(285)
Balance as of April 1, 2023	$	4,075
Actuarial loss	(2,157)
Prior service credit	(170)
Balance as of March 30, 2024	$	1,748

The Company expects to amortize $0.2 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net periodic benefit cost during fiscal 2025.

The weighted average rates used to determine the net periodic benefit costs and projected benefit obligations were as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Discount rate	2.05	%	2.43	%	1.38	%
Rate of increased salary levels	1.86	%	1.94	%	1.81	%
Expected long-term rate of return on assets	0.94	%	0.87	%	0.69	%

Assumptions for expected long-term rate of return on plan assets are based upon actual historical returns, future expectations of returns for each asset class and the effect of periodic target asset allocation rebalancing. The results are adjusted for the payment of reasonable expenses of the plan from plan assets.

The Company has no other material obligation for post-retirement or post-employment benefits.

The Company’s investment policy for pension plans is to balance risk and return through a diversified portfolio to reduce interest rate and market risk. Maturities are managed so that sufficient liquidity exists to meet immediate and future benefit payment requirements.

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides guidance for reporting and measuring the plan assets of the Company’s defined benefit pension plan at fair value as of March 30, 2024. Using the same three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements as described in Note 13, Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements, all of the assets of the Company’s plan are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because the plan assets are primarily insurance contracts.

Expected benefit payments for both plans are estimated using the same assumptions used in determining the Company’s benefit obligation at March 30, 2024. Benefit payments will depend on future employment and compensation levels, average years employed and average life spans, among other factors, and changes in any of these factors could significantly affect these estimated future benefit payments. Estimated future benefit payments are as follows:

(In thousands)
Fiscal 2025	$	1,598
Fiscal 2026	$	1,551
Fiscal 2027	$	1,537
Fiscal 2028	$	1,841
Fiscal 2029	$	2,431
Fiscal 2030-2034	$	12,355

The Company’s contributions for fiscal 2025 are expected to be consistent with the current year.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that, except for those matters described below, there are no other proceedings or claims pending against it the ultimate resolution of which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. At each reporting period, management evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies, for all matters. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company received a subpoena from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts. The subpoena requested certain documents regarding the Company’s apheresis and autotransfusion devices and disposables, including documents relating to product complaints and adverse event reporting, regulatory clearances and product design changes, among other matters. The Company has fully cooperated with this inquiry. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) filed a motion on behalf of the United States and 31 states reflecting their decision to not intervene in the underlying qui tam action captioned United States ex rel. Berthelot et al. v. Haemonetics Corp., 1:20-cv-11062-ADB, pending in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, indicating that the DOJ had completed its investigative activity based on then available information. The qui tam case was unsealed by order dated August 18, 2022. On January 12, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with the individual plaintiffs in the qui tam case that provides for settlement of certain unrelated employment matters and releases those individuals’ claims. During fiscal 2024, the Company recorded an additional loss contingency related to this matter, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. On January 16, 2024, the relators in the qui tam case filed a stipulation of dismissal of their claims against the Company. The court dismissed the qui tam claims with prejudice as to the relators and without prejudice as to the government.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois by Mary Crumpton, on behalf of herself and similarly situated individuals. The Company removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District Illinois. See Mary Crumpton v. Haemonetics Corporation, Case No. 1:21-cv-1402. In her complaint, the plaintiff asserts that between June 2017 and August 2018 she donated plasma at a center operated by one of the Company’s customers, that the center required her to scan her fingerprint on a finger scanner that stored her fingerprint to identify her prior to plasma donation, and that the Company’s eQue donor management software sent her biometric information to a Company-owned server to be collected and stored in a manner that violated her rights under the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (“BIPA”). The plaintiff seeks statutory damages, attorneys’ fees and injunctive and equitable relief. In March 2021, the Company moved to dismiss the complaint for lack of personal jurisdiction and concurrently filed a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim and a motion to stay. In March 2022, the court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction but did not address the merits of the Company’s other positions. In March 2023, the Company filed a second motion to dismiss the complaint, which is pending before the court. During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding providing terms that would resolve the litigation and recorded an additional loss contingency related to this matter. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the parties requested preliminary court approval of a final settlement agreement, which was granted in February 2024, and the Company recorded an immaterial additional loss contingency related to settlement administration, resulting in an accrual of $8.7 million within Other current liabilities in its consolidated balance sheets. In March 2024, notice of the settlement was mailed to class members and the parties are now awaiting the complete administration of the settlement through the third-party administrator.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, a complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware by Knoninklijke Philips N.V. and IP2IPO Innovations, Ltd. (together, the “Plaintiffs”) against OpSens, OpSens Medical, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of OpSens, and Haemonetics (1:24-cv-00206-CFC). The complaint alleges, inter alia, that OpSens’ interventional cardiology systems, including its OptoWire and OptoMonitor technology, infringe a single patent held by the

Plaintiffs and seeks both injunctive relief and damages. The Company believes it has valid and meritorious defenses to the complaint and plans to vigorously defend against the complaint if and when served.

Product Recall

In August 2023, the Company issued a voluntary recall of certain products within the Whole Blood portion of our Blood Center business unit sold to customers in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. As of March 30, 2024, the Company has recorded cumulative charges of $6.8 million related to inventory, returns and customer claims associated with this recall. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this recall and may record additional incremental charges in future periods.

Stock Plans

The Haemonetics Corporation 2019 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2019 Equity Plan”) was approved and became effective on July 25, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). The 2019 Equity Plan permits the award of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (including performance-based restricted stock units) and other awards to the Company’s key employees, non-employee directors and certain consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries. The 2019 Equity Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Committee”), which consists of four independent members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and is the successor to the Haemonetics Corporation 2005 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended (the “2005 Equity Plan”). Upon the Effective Date, no further awards were granted under the 2005 Equity Plan; however, each outstanding award under the 2005 Equity Plan will remain outstanding under that plan and continue to be governed under its terms and any applicable award agreement.

The 2019 Equity Plan initially had a share reserve of 2,700,000 new shares of common stock, plus the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2005 Plan that remained available for grant under the 2005 Plan as of July 25, 2019, an aggregate of 5,759,433 shares as of the Effective Date.

On August 4, 2023, the 2019 Equity Plan was amended and restated to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan by 2,966,231 additional shares, from 1,975,970 shares to 4,942,201 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment as provided by the terms of the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated.

Under the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated, any shares that are subject to the award of stock options or SARs will be counted against the authorized share reserve as one share for every one share issued and any shares that are subject to awards other than stock options, SARs or cash awards will be counted against the authorized share reserve as 2.76 shares for every one share granted. Shares of common stock subject to outstanding grants under the 2005 Equity Plan as of the Effective Date that terminate, expire, or are otherwise canceled without having been exercised will be added to the share reserve at the applicable 2019 Equity Plan ratios. The total shares available for future grant under the 2019 Equity Plan, as amended and restated and giving effect to the applicable adjustment provisions, were 5,340,447 as of March 30, 2024.

Share-Based Compensation

Compensation cost related to share-based transactions is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on fair value. The total amount of share-based compensation expense, which is recorded on a straight line basis, is as follows:

(In thousands)	2024	2023	2022
Selling, general and administrative expenses	$23,662	$21,903	$20,694
Research and development	3,106	2,364	2,537
Cost of goods sold	1,564	1,316	1,128
	$28,332	$25,583	$24,359

Stock Options

Options are granted to purchase common stock at prices as determined by the Committee, but in no event shall such exercise price be less than the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the grant. Options generally vest in equal installments over a four year period for employees and one year from grant for non-employee directors. Options expire not more than 7 years from the date of the grant. The grant-date fair value of options, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience.

A summary of stock option activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Options Outstanding	Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Life (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value ($000’s)
Outstanding at April 1, 2023	1,150,194	$	64.21	3.55	$	27,481
Granted	179,696	89.09
Exercised	(234,913)	32.65
Forfeited/Canceled	(27,973)	83.46
Outstanding at March 30, 2024	1,067,004	$	74.86	3.68	$	16,820
Exercisable at March 30, 2024	561,037	$	77.88	2.36	$	8,555
Vested or expected to vest at March 30, 2024	983,780	$	74.98	3.59	$	15,663

The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $12.4 million, $1.9 million and $1.7 million during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

As of March 30, 2024, there was $10.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years.

The fair value was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on the closing stock price at the grant date and the weighted average assumptions specific to the underlying options. Expected volatility assumptions are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the expected term of the option. The risk-free interest rate was selected based upon yields of U.S. Treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option being valued. The expected life of the option was estimated with reference to historical exercise patterns, the contractual term of the option and the vesting period.

The assumptions utilized for option grants during the periods presented are as follows:

	2024			2023			2022
Volatility	45.3		%	45.0		%	41.9		%
Expected life (years)	5.1			5.0			4.9
Risk-free interest rate	3.5		%	2.9		%	0.8		%
Dividend yield	0.0		%	0.0		%	0.0		%
Grant-date fair value per Option	$	39.46		$	24.86		$	20.97

Restricted Stock Units

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) generally vest in equal installments over a three or four year period for employees and one year from grant for non-employee directors. The grant-date fair value of RSUs, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. The fair market value of RSUs is determined based on the market value of the Company’s shares on the date of grant.

A summary of RSU activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at April 1, 2023	381,308	$	63.94
Granted	141,031	89.21
Vested	(166,193)	67.14
Forfeited	(18,138)	71.45
Unvested at March 30, 2024	338,008	$	72.52

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of RSUs granted and total fair value of RSUs vested are as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Grant-date fair value per RSU	$	89.21	$	59.36	$	56.96
Fair value of RSUs vested	$	67.14	$	70.24	$	79.60

As of March 30, 2024, there was $15.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted stock units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

Performance Share Units

The grant date fair value of Performance Share Units (“PSUs”), adjusted for estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense on a straight line basis from the grant date through the end of the performance period. The value of these PSUs is generally based on relative total shareholder return which equals total shareholder return for the Company as compared with total shareholder return of the PSU comparison group, measured over a three year performance period. The PSUs comparison group consists of the Standard and Poor's (“S&P”) MidCap 400 Index. Depending on the Company’s relative performance during the performance period, a recipient of the award is entitled to receive a number of ordinary shares equal to a percentage, ranging from 0% to 200%, of the award granted. If the Company’s total shareholder return for the performance period is negative, then any share payout will be capped at 100% of the target award, regardless of the Company’s performance relative to the its comparison group. As a result, the Company may issue up to 739,600 shares related to outstanding performance-based awards.

A summary of PSU activity for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024 is as follows:

	Shares	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested at April 1, 2023	323,987	$	87.35
Granted(1)	54,558	128.83
Forfeited	(8,745)	88.20
Unvested at March 30, 2024	369,800	$	94.26
(1) Includes the adjustment of 59,091 shares for awards granted in fiscal 2021, based on actual relative total shareholder return of 0%

The Company uses the Monte Carlo model to estimate the probability of satisfying the performance criteria and the resulting fair value of PSU awards with market conditions. The assumptions used in the Monte Carlo model for PSUs granted during each fiscal year were as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Expected stock price volatility	48.20	%	52.22	%	49.23	%
Peer group stock price volatility	40.29	%	47.43	%	45.75	%
Correlation of returns	59.93	%	65.45	%	65.06	%

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of PSUs granted is as follows:

	2024		2023		2022
Grant-date fair value per PSU	$	128.83	$	84.96	$	72.52

As of March 30, 2024, there was $18.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested performance share units. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) under which a maximum of 3,200,000 shares (subject to adjustment for stock splits and similar changes) of common stock may be purchased by eligible employees. Substantially all of its full-time employees are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan.

The Purchase Plan provides for two “purchase periods” within each of its fiscal years, the first commencing on November 1 of each year and continuing through April 30 of the next calendar year, and the second commencing on May 1 of each year and continuing through October 31 of such year. Shares are purchased through an accumulation of payroll deductions (of not less than 2% or more than 15% of compensation, as defined) for the number of whole shares determined by dividing the balance in the employee’s account on the last day of the purchase period by the purchase price per share for the stock determined under the Purchase Plan. The purchase price for shares is the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the common stock at the beginning of the purchase period, or 85% of such value at the end of the purchase period.

The fair values of shares purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan are estimated using the Black-Scholes single option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	2024		2023		2022
Volatility	28.6	%	44.9	%	55.6	%
Expected life (months)	6		6		6
Risk-free interest rate	5.4	%	2.9	%	0.1	%
Dividend Yield	0.0	%	0.0	%	0.0	%

The weighted average grant date fair value of the six-month option inherent in the Purchase Plan was approximately $20.27, $18.10 and $20.77 during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT AND ENTERPRISE-WIDE INFORMATION

SEGMENT AND ENTERPRISE-WIDE INFORMATION

The Company determines its reportable segments by first identifying its operating segments, and then by assessing whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company’s reporting structure aligns with its operating structure of three global business units and the information that is regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker.

The Company’s reportable and operating segments are as follows:

•Plasma

•Blood Center

•Hospital

Management measures and evaluates the operating segments based on operating income. Management excludes certain corporate expenses from segment operating income. In addition, certain amounts that management considers to be non-recurring or non-operational are excluded from segment operating income because management evaluates the operating results of the segments excluding such items. These items include integration and transaction costs, amortization of acquired intangible assets, restructuring costs, restructuring related costs, digital transformation costs related to the upgrade of our enterprise resource planning system, impairments and write downs, accelerated device depreciation and related costs, costs related to compliance with the European Union Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”) and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (“IVDR”), unusual or infrequent and material litigation-related charges and gains and losses on dispositions and sale of assets. Although these amounts are excluded from segment operating income, as applicable, they are included in the reconciliations that follow. Management measures and evaluates the Company’s net revenues and operating income using internally derived standard currency exchange rates that remain constant from year to year; therefore, segment information is presented on this basis.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Mar. 30, 2024

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]

Fiscal Year

Fiscal Year

Haemonetics’ fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. Fiscal years 2024, 2023 and 2022 include 52 weeks with each quarter having 13 weeks.

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts including those of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, we assess our strategic investments to determine whether they meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and if so, whether the Company has controlling financial interest. Controlling financial interest occurs if the Company has both the power to direct activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and an obligation to absorb losses of or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company’s strategic investments did not meet the controlling financial interest criteria, as such no VIEs were consolidated during fiscal 2024, 2023 or 2022.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from the amounts derived from its estimates and assumptions. The Company considers estimates to be critical if they are required to make assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time of estimation or if materially different estimates could have been made or it is reasonably likely that the accounting estimate will change from period to period. The

following are areas considered to be critical and require management’s judgment: revenue recognition, inventory provisions, intangible asset and goodwill valuation, legal and other judgmental accruals and income taxes.

Contingencies

Contingencies

The Company may become involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, including, without limitation, patent infringement, product liability and environmental matters. Accruals recorded for various contingencies including legal proceedings, employee related litigation, self-insurance and other claims are based on judgment, the probability of losses and, where applicable, the consideration of opinions of internal and/or external legal counsel and actuarially determined estimates. When a loss is probable and a range of loss is established but a best estimate cannot be made, the Company records the minimum loss contingency amount, which could be zero. These estimates are often initially developed substantially earlier than the ultimate loss is known and the estimates are reevaluated each accounting period, as additional information is available. As information becomes known, an additional loss provision is recorded when either a best estimate can be made or the minimum loss amount is increased. When events result in an expectation of a more favorable outcome than previously expected, the best estimate is changed to a lower amount.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

The Company's revenue recognition policy is to recognize revenues from product sales, software and services in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2014-19, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied; this occurs with the transfer of control of the Company’s goods or services. The Company considers revenue to be earned when all of the following criteria are met: it has a contract with a customer that creates enforceable rights and obligations; promised products or services are identified; the transaction price, or the consideration the Company expects to receive for transferring goods or providing services, is determinable and it has transferred control of the promised items to the customer. A promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer is identified as a performance obligation. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. Some of the Company’s contracts have multiple performance obligations. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the contract’s transaction price to each performance obligation based on the estimated standalone selling prices of the good or service in the contract. For goods or services for which observable standalone selling prices are not available, the Company uses an expected cost plus a margin approach to estimate the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

Product Revenues

The majority of the Company’s performance obligations related to product sales are satisfied at a point in time. Product revenue consists of the sale of its disposable products and the related equipment. The Company’s performance obligation related to product sales is satisfied upon shipment or delivery to the customer based on the specified terms set forth in the customer contract. Shipping and handling activities performed after a customer obtains control of the good are treated as fulfillment activities and are not considered to be a separate performance obligation. Revenue is recognized over time for maintenance plans provided to customers that provide services beyond the Company’s standard warranty period. Payment terms between customers related to product sales vary by the type of customer, country of sale, and the products or services offered and could result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

For product sales to distributors, the Company recognizes revenue for both equipment and disposables upon shipment to distributors, which is when its performance obligations are complete. The Company's standard contracts with its distributors state that title to the equipment passes to the distributors at point of shipment to a distributor’s location. The distributors are responsible for shipment to the end customer along with any installation, training and acceptance of the equipment by the end customer. Payments from distributors are not contingent upon resale of the product.

The Company also places equipment at customer sites. While the Company retains ownership of this equipment, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time provided they meet certain agreed to conditions. The Company recovers the cost of providing the equipment from the sale of its disposables.

Software and Other Revenues

To a lesser extent, the Company enters into other types of contracts including certain software licensing arrangements to provide software solutions to support its plasma, blood collection and hospital customers. A portion of its software sales are perpetual licenses typically accompanied by significant implementation services related to software customization as well as other professional and technical services. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of perpetual licenses and related customization services over time (the Company is creating or enhancing an asset that the customer controls) using an input method which requires it to make estimates of the extent of progress toward completion of the contract. When the Company provides other services, including in some instances hosting, technical support and maintenance, it recognizes these fees and charges over time (the customer simultaneously receives and consumes benefits), as performance obligations for these services are satisfied during the contract period. Certain of the Company’s software licensing arrangements are term-based licenses that include a per-collection or a usage-based fee related to the use of the license and the related technical support and hosting services. For these usage-based arrangements, the Company applies the revenue recognition exception resulting in revenue recognition occurring upon the later of actual usage or satisfaction of the related performance obligations. The payment terms for software licensing arrangements vary by customer pursuant to the terms set forth in the customer contract and result in an unbilled receivable or deferred revenue balance depending on whether the performance obligation has been satisfied (or partially satisfied).

Significant Judgments

Revenues from product sales are recorded at the net sales price, which includes estimates of variable consideration related to rebates, product returns and volume discounts. These reserves, which are based on estimates of the amounts earned or to be claimed on the related sales, are recorded as a reduction of revenue and a current liability. The Company’s estimates take into consideration historical experience, current contractual and statutory requirements, specific known market events and trends, industry data, and forecasted customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the contract. The amount of variable consideration included in the net sales price is limited to the amount that is probable not to result in a significant reversal in the amount of the cumulative revenue recognized in a future period. Revenue recognized in the current period related to performance obligations satisfied in prior periods was not material. If the Company is unable to estimate the expected rebates reasonably, it records a liability for the maximum potential rebate or discount that could be earned. In circumstances where the Company provides upfront rebate payments to customers, it capitalizes the rebate payments and amortizes the resulting asset as a reduction of revenue using a systematic method over the life of the contract.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and contract assets, as well as customer advances, customer deposits and deferred revenue (contract liabilities) on the consolidated balance sheets. The difference in timing between billing and revenue recognition primarily occurs in software licensing arrangements, resulting in contract assets and contract liabilities.

Practical Expedients

The Company elected not to disclose the value of transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less. When applicable, the Company has also elected to use the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it is expected, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service, will be one year or less.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

Translation of Foreign Currencies

All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange at year-end while sales and expenses are translated at an average rate in effect during the year. The net effect of these translation adjustments is shown in the accompanying financial statements as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, including those resulting from intercompany transactions, are charged directly to earnings and included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of income. The impact of foreign exchange on long-term intercompany loans, for which repayment has not been scheduled or planned, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the consolidated balance sheet.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include various instruments such as money market funds, U.S. government obligations and commercial paper with maturities of three months or less at date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair market value. As of March 30, 2024, cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of investments in United States Government Agency and institutional money market funds.

Allowance for Credit Losses

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company establishes a specific allowance for customers when it is probable that they will not be able to meet their financial obligations. Customer accounts are reviewed individually on a regular basis and reserves are established as deemed appropriate. The Company also maintains a general reserve using a percentage that is established based upon the age of its receivables and its collection history. The Company establishes allowances for balances not yet due and past due accounts based on past experience.

Inventories

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value and include the cost of material, labor and manufacturing overhead. Cost is determined with the first-in, first-out method. The Company has based its provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory primarily on its estimates of forecasted net sales. Significant changes in the timing or level of demand for the Company’s products result in recording additional provisions for excess, expired and obsolete inventory. Additionally, uncertain timing of next-generation product approvals, variability in product launch strategies, non-cancelable purchase commitments, product recalls and variation in product utilization all affect the Company’s estimates related to excess, expired and obsolete inventory.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at historical cost. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization by charges to operations using the straight-line method in amounts estimated to recover the cost of the building and improvements, equipment and furniture and fixtures over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Asset Classification	Estimated Useful Lives
Building	30-40 Years
Building improvements	5-20 Years
Plant equipment and machinery	3-15 Years
Office equipment and information technology	3-10 Years
Haemonetics equipment	3-7 Years

The Company evaluates the depreciation periods of property, plant and equipment to determine whether events or circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. All property, plant and equipment are also tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

The Company’s installed base of devices includes devices owned by the Company and devices sold to the customer. The asset on its balance sheet classified as Haemonetics equipment consists of medical devices installed at customer sites but owned by Haemonetics. Generally, the customer has the right to use it for a period of time as long as they meet the conditions the Company has established, which among other things, generally include one or more of the following:

•Purchase and consumption of a certain level of disposable products

•Payment of monthly rental fees

•An asset utilization performance metric, such as performing a minimum level of procedures per month per device

Consistent with the impairment tests noted below for other intangible assets subject to amortization, the Company reviews Haemonetics equipment and the related useful lives of such equipment at least once a year, or more frequently if certain conditions arise, to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate the carrying value of these assets may not be recoverable. To conduct these reviews, the Company estimates the future amount and timing of demand for disposables used

with these devices, from which it generates revenues. The Company also considers product life cycle in its evaluation of useful life and recoverability. Changes in expected demand can result in additional depreciation expense, which is classified as cost of goods sold. Any significant unanticipated changes in demand could impact the value of the Company’s devices and its reported operating results.

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of their useful lives or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed to operations as incurred. When the repair or maintenance costs significantly extend the life of the asset, these costs may be capitalized. When equipment and improvements are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, is included in the consolidated statements of income.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is instead reviewed for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for each of its reporting units.

A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. The Company determines its reporting units by first identifying its operating segments and then by assessing whether any components of these segments constitute a business for which discrete financial information is available and where segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. The Company aggregates components within an operating segment that have similar economic characteristics. The Company’s reportable segments and reporting units are as follows: Plasma, Blood Center and Hospital. When the Company completes business combinations, the Company assigns goodwill to the reporting units that it expects to benefit from the respective business combination at the time of acquisition.

Under ASC Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment entities perform their goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount by either performing a qualitative or quantitative assessment. The Company may elect to perform only a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test when certain qualitative criteria are met that indicate that it is more likely than not the fair values of each reporting unit exceed their carrying values.

If the Company elects to perform a quantitative test, it determines carrying values of each reporting unit by allocating assets and liabilities, including corporate assets, which relate to a reporting unit’s operations and would be considered in determining its fair value, to the individual reporting units. The Company allocates assets and liabilities not directly related to a specific reporting unit, but from which the reporting unit benefits, based primarily on the respective revenue contribution of each reporting unit.

In addition, when performing a quantitative test, the Company uses the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value of each of its reporting units in preparing its goodwill impairment assessments. This approach calculates fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to a reporting unit and then discounting these after-tax cash flows to a present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. The Company selected this method as being the most meaningful in preparing its goodwill assessments because the use of the income approach typically generates a more precise measurement of fair value than the market approach. In applying the income approach to its accounting for goodwill, the Company makes assumptions about the amount and timing of future expected cash flows, terminal value growth rates and appropriate discount rates. The amount and timing of future cash flows within the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis is based on its most recent operational budgets, long range strategic plans and other estimates. The terminal value growth rate is used to calculate the value of cash flows beyond the last projected period in the Company’s discounted cash flow analysis and reflects the Company’s best estimates for stable, perpetual growth of its reporting units. The Company uses estimates of market-participant risk adjusted weighted average cost of capital as a basis for determining the discount rates to apply to its reporting units’ future expected cash flows. The Company corroborates the valuations that arose from the discounted cash flow approach by performing both a market multiple valuation and by reconciling the aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its market capitalization at the time of the test. An impairment charge, if any, would then be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company elected to perform a qualitative assessment for its annual impairment test whereas in fiscal 2023 and 2022, the Company performed quantitative assessments. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the results of the goodwill impairment test performed indicated that the estimated fair value of all of its reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values and there were no reporting units at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

The Company reviews intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment indicators at least annually or more frequently if certain conditions arise to determine if any adverse conditions exist that would indicate that the carrying value of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable, or that a change in the remaining useful life is required. Conditions indicating that an impairment exists include, but are not limited to, a change in the competitive landscape, internal decisions to pursue new or different technology strategies, a loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the marketplace including prices paid for its products or the size of the market for its products.

When an impairment indicator exists, the Company tests the intangible asset for recoverability. For purposes of the recoverability test, the Company groups its amortizable intangible assets with other assets and liabilities at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows if the intangible asset does not generate cash flows independent of other assets and liabilities. If the carrying value of the intangible asset (asset group) exceeds the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the intangible asset (asset group), the Company will write the carrying value down to the fair value in the period identified.

The Company generally calculates the fair value of its intangible assets as the present value of estimated future cash flows it expects to generate from the asset using a risk-adjusted discount rate. In determining its estimated future cash flows associated with its intangible assets, the Company uses estimates and assumptions about future revenue contributions, cost structures and remaining useful lives of the asset (asset group).

If the Company determines the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life should be reduced based on its expected use of the asset, the remaining carrying amount of the asset is amortized prospectively over the revised estimated useful life.

The Company has in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) intangible assets with indefinite lives. IPR&D assets are not amortized. The Company reviews these assets for impairment at least annually, or on an interim basis between annual tests when events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test on the first day of the fiscal fourth quarter for its IPR&D assets. The Company makes assumptions about future cash flows, terminal value growth, costs for completion and appropriate discount rates. The Company elected qualitative assessments in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, which all indicated that the estimated fair value of the in-process research and development intangible asset exceeded its carrying value and it was not at risk of impairment as of the annual test dates.

Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed

Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed

ASC Topic 985-20, Software - Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased or Marketed, specifies that costs incurred internally in researching and developing a computer software product should be charged to expense until technological feasibility has been established for the product. Once technological feasibility is established, all software costs should be capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers, at which point capitalized costs are amortized over their estimated useful life of 5 to 10 years. Technological feasibility is established when it has a detailed design of the software and when research and development activities on the underlying device, if applicable, are completed. The Company capitalizes costs associated with both software that it sells as a separate product and software that is embedded in a device.

The Company reviews the net realizable value of capitalized assets periodically to assess the recoverability of amounts capitalized. There were no impairment charges recorded during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022. In the future, the net realizable value may be adversely affected by the loss of a significant customer or a significant change in the market place, which could result in an impairment being recorded.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The income tax provision is calculated for all jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The income tax provision process involves calculating current taxes due and assessing temporary differences arising from items that are taxable or deductible in different periods for tax and accounting purposes and are recorded as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for realizability and a valuation allowance is maintained for the portion of the Company’s deferred tax assets that are not more-likely-than-not realizable. All available evidence, both positive and negative, has been considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a valuation allowance is needed against the deferred tax assets. Refer to Note 6, Income Taxes, for further information and discussion of the Company’s income tax provision and balances.

The Company files income tax returns in all jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. The Company’s financial statements reflect expected future tax consequences of such positions presuming the taxing authorities’ full knowledge of the position and all relevant facts. The Company records a liability for the portion of unrecognized tax benefits claimed that it has determined are not more-likely-than-not realizable. These tax reserves have been established based on management’s assessment as to the potential exposure attributable to the Company’s uncertain tax positions as well as interest and penalties attributable to these uncertain tax positions. All tax reserves are analyzed quarterly and adjustments are made as events occur that result in changes in judgment.

The Company evaluates at the end of each reporting period whether some or all of the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are permanently reinvested. The Company recognizes deferred income tax liabilities to the extent that management asserts that undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries are not permanently reinvested or will not be permanently reinvested in the future. The Company’s position is based upon several factors including management’s evaluation of the Haemonetics and its subsidiaries’ financial requirements, the short-term and long-term operational and fiscal objectives of the Company and the tax consequences associated with the repatriation of earnings.

Debt, Policy

Convertible Senior Notes

Effective April 4, 2021, the Company accounted for convertible senior notes as a single liability measured at its amortized cost. See Recent Accounting Pronouncements below. At issuance, the carrying amount is calculated as the proceeds, net of initial debt issuance costs. The difference between the principal amount and carrying value is amortized to interest expense over the term of the convertible senior notes using the effective interest rate method.

A detailed analysis of the terms of the convertible senior notes transactions is required to determine existence of any derivatives that may require separate mark-to-market accounting under applicable accounting guidance.

The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). In accordance with ASC 815, the Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for the change in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. In addition, ASC 815 provides that, for derivative instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, changes in the fair value are either (a) offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or (b) recognized in equity until the hedged item is recognized in earnings, depending on whether the derivative is being used to hedge changes in fair value or cash flows. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculation purposes.

When the underlying hedged transaction affects earnings, the gains or losses on the forward foreign exchange rate contracts designated as hedges are recorded in net revenues, cost of goods sold, operating expenses and other expense, net in the Company’s consolidated statements of income, depending on the nature of the underlying hedged transactions. The cash flows related to the gains and losses are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows as part of cash flows from operating activities. For those derivative instruments that are not designated as part of a hedging relationship the Company records the gains or losses in earnings currently. These gains and losses are intended to offset the gains and losses recorded on net monetary assets or liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies. The Company recorded foreign currency losses of $4.0 million, $1.0 million and $1.5 million in fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses whether the cash flow hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flow of the hedged item. The Company manages the credit risk of its counterparties by dealing only with institutions that it considers financially sound and considers the risk of non-performance to be remote. Additionally, the Company’s interest rate risk management strategy includes the use of interest rate swaps to mitigate its exposure to changes in variable interest rates. The Company’s objective in using interest rate swaps is to add stability to interest expense and to manage and reduce the risk inherent in interest rate fluctuations.

The Company’s derivative instruments do not subject its earnings or cash flows to material risk, as gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset losses and gains on the item being hedged. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and it does not have any non-derivative instruments that are designated as hedging instruments pursuant to ASC 815.

Share-Based Compensation

Share-Based Compensation

The Company expenses the fair value of share-based awards granted to employees, board members and others, net of estimated forfeitures. To calculate the grant-date fair value of its stock options the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and for performance share units it uses Monte Carlo simulation models.

Costs Associated with Exit Activities

Costs Associated with Exit Activities

The Company records employee termination costs in accordance with ASC Topic 712, Compensation - Nonretirement and Postemployment Benefits, if it pays the benefits as part of an on-going benefit arrangement, which includes benefits provided as part of its established severance policies or that it provides in accordance with international statutory requirements. The Company accrues employee termination costs associated with an on-going benefit arrangement if the obligation is attributable to prior services rendered, the rights to the benefits have vested, the payment is probable and the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company accounts for employee termination benefits that represent a one-time benefit in accordance with ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations. It records such costs into expense over the employee’s future service period, if any.

Other costs associated with exit activities may include contract termination costs, including costs related to leased facilities to be abandoned or subleased, consultant fees and impairments of long-lived assets. The costs are expensed in accordance with ASC Topic 420 and ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment and are included in costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Additionally, costs directly related to the Company’s active restructuring initiatives, including program management costs, accelerated depreciation and costs to transfer product lines among facilities are included within costs of goods sold and selling, general and administrative costs in its consolidated statement of income. Refer to Note 5, Restructuring, for further information and discussion of its restructuring plans.

Valuation of Acquisitions

Valuation of Acquisitions

The Company allocates the amounts it pays for each acquisition to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition, including acquired identifiable intangible assets. The Company bases the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets on detailed valuations that use significant assumptions including forecasted cash flows, revenues attributable to existing technology and discount rates. When estimating the significant assumptions to be used in the valuation, the Company includes a consideration of current industry information, market and economic trends, historical results of the acquired business, and other relevant factors. These significant assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The Company allocates any excess purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired to goodwill.

Strategic Investments

Strategic Investments

The Company holds strategic investments, including preferred stock and a special share, in privately held entities. The special share allows the Company to acquire the related entity in accordance with an agreement between the parties. As these equity instruments do not have readily determinable fair values, they have been measured using the measurement alternative, at cost less impairment. The carrying amount for these instruments would be subsequently adjusted for observable price changes, or prices in orderly transactions for an identical investment or similar investment of the same issuer. In addition, these investments are periodically evaluated for impairment. The investments are classified as other long-term assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the Company did not record any adjustments to the carrying value of strategic investments in fiscal 2024 or 2023.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and accounts receivable. In fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, the Company’s ten largest customers accounted for approximately 48%, 48% and 45% of net revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2024, one Plasma customer, CSL Limited (together with its affiliates, “CSL”), was greater than 10% of total net revenues and accounted for approximately 13% of net revenues. In addition to CSL, two customers also accounted for greater than 10% of the Plasma segment’s net revenues and two customers accounted for greater than 10% of the Blood Center segment’s net revenues, but did not exceed 10% of total net revenues, in fiscal 2024.

Certain markets and industries can expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk. For example, in the Plasma business unit, sales are concentrated with several large customers. As a result, accounts receivable extended to any one of these biopharmaceutical customers can be significant at any point in time. Also, a portion of the Company’s trade accounts receivable outside the U.S. include sales to government-owned or supported healthcare systems in several countries, which are subject to payment delays. Payment is dependent upon the financial stability and creditworthiness of those countries’ national economies. The Company has not incurred significant losses on government receivables. The Company continually evaluates all government receivables for potential collection risks associated with the availability of government funding and reimbursement

practices. If the financial condition of customers or the countries’ healthcare systems deteriorate such that their ability to make payments is uncertain, allowances may be required in future periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Standards Implemented

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2019-12 — Income Taxes (Topic 740). The new guidance improves consistent application of and simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principals in Topic 740. The Company adopted ASC Update No. 2019-12 effective April 4, 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASC ASU Update No. 2020-06 Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The amendments simplify the complexity associated with applying U.S. GAAP for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early adopted ASC Update No. 2020-06 effective April 4, 2021 using the modified retrospective method, which resulted in a decrease of $61.2 million to additional paid-in capital, a decrease to non-current deferred tax liabilities of $20.0 million, and an increase of $80.3 million to non-current convertible notes, net, on the consolidated balance sheets. Additionally, retained earnings was adjusted to remove amortization expense recognized in prior periods related to the debt discount and the convertible notes no longer have a debt discount that will be amortized, net of taxes. The impact to retained earnings on the consolidated balance sheets as of April 4, 2021 is an increase of $1.0 million.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2021-05 — Leases (Topic 842). The new guidance requires a lessor to classify a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease at lease commencement if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria of ASC 842 and the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The Company prospectively adopted ASC Update No. 2021-05 effective in the second quarter of fiscal year 2022. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Standards to be Implemented

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Update No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). The new guidance requires public entities to provide expanded disclosures over significant segment expenses and additional disclosures related to the chief operating decision maker. ASC Update No. 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its interim and annual report disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASC Update No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASC Update No. 2023-09 requires public entities to provide detailed income tax disclosures, including rate reconciliations and disaggregated income tax payment information, on an annual basis. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. ASC Update No. 2023-09 is applicable to Haemonetics beginning with the fiscal 2026 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Company is currently evaluating the impact to its annual report disclosures.
