CHURCH & DWIGHT CO., INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(In millions, except per share data)
1. |
Basis of Presentation |
The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 and condensed consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018 have been prepared by Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2019 and results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the period ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Certain prior period amounts previously included in Deferred and Other Long-term Liabilities have been reclassified to Business Acquisition Liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet to conform to the presentation for the current period.
The Company incurred research and development expenses in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018 of $

New Accounting Pronouncements |
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2017 and October 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance, which is intended to improve the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements. These amendments also make targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting. The guidance was effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The standard’s adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2016 and July 2018, the FASB issued new lease accounting guidance, requiring lessees to recognize right-of-use lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases previously classified as operating leases, with a term greater than a year. The new guidance also expands the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. The guidance was effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and allowed companies to apply the requirements retrospectively, either to all prior periods presented or through a cumulative adjustment in the year of adoption. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis and elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which eliminates the reassessment of past leases, classification, and initial direct costs. The Company has implemented the appropriate internal controls and tools to monitor and record historical and future lease arrangements and required disclosures.
For all existing operating leases as of December 31, 2018, the Company recorded Right of Use Assets of approximately $
8
In addition, based on the transition guidance surrounding failed sale-and-leaseback transactions, the Company re-evaluated the lease for its corporate headquarters in Ewing, New Jersey. This lease was previously considered a failed sale-and-leaseback transaction under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840 because of continuing involvement. The re-evaluation resulted in a change in classification from a finance transaction to an operating lease. The corporate headquarters building, which had a net book value of approximately $
In total, at the adoption of the new accounting guidance there were Right of Use Assets of approximately $
The effects of the recently adopted lease accounting standard to the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 is as follows:

Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) |
Basic EPS is calculated based on income available to holders of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reported period. Diluted EPS includes additional dilution from potential Common Stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding to the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a diluted basis:

The Company recognizes transfers between input levels as of the actual date of the event. There were no transfers between input levels during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Refer to Note 2 in the Form 10-K for a description of the methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The business acquisition liabilities represent the estimated fair value of additional future earn-outs payable for acquisitions of businesses that included earn-out clauses. The valuation of the contingent consideration will be evaluated on an ongoing basis and is based on management estimates and entity-specific assumptions which are considered Level 3 inputs. A portion of the business acquisition liabilities are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximated estimated fair values as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Derivative Instruments and Risk Management |
Changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the price of the Common Stock and commodity prices expose the Company to market risk. The Company manages these risks by the use of derivative instruments, such as cash flow and fair value hedges, diesel and commodity hedge contracts, equity derivatives and foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Refer to Note 3 in the Form 10-K for a discussion of each of the Company’s derivative instruments in effect as of December 31, 2018.
The notional amount of a derivative instrument is the nominal or face amount used to calculate payments made on that instrument. Notional amounts are presented in the following table:

Intangible amortization expense was $
The Company determined that the carrying value of its trade names as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, was recoverable based upon the forecasted cash flows and profitability of the brands. In 2017 there was a personal care trade name that, based on performance, had experienced sales and profit declines that had eroded a significant portion of the excess between fair and carrying value, which could potentially result in an impairment of the asset. In 2017, this excess had been reduced due in large part to an increased competitive market environment therefore resulting in reduced cash flow projections. The performance of the tradename improved since 2017, thereby increasing the excess between fair value and carrying value. The Company continues to monitor performance and should there be any significant change in forecasted assumptions or estimates, including sales, profitability and discount rate, the Company may be required to recognize an impairment charge.
The carrying amount of goodwill is as follows:

Leases |
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses, office space, railcars and equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All recorded leases are classified as operating leases and lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases beginning in 2019, lease components (base rental costs) are accounted for separately from the nonlease components (e.g., common-area maintenance costs). For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its estimated secured incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
A summary of the Company’s lease information is as follows:

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees |
Commitments
a. The Company has a partnership with a supplier of raw materials that mines and processes sodium-based mineral deposits. The Company purchases the majority of its sodium-based raw material requirements from the partnership. The partnership agreement terminates upon two years’ written notice by either partner. Under the partnership agreement, the Company has an annual commitment to purchase

In connection with the Flawless Acquisition, the Company is obligated to pay an additional amount of up to $
Legal proceedings
e. The Company has been named as a defendant in a breach of contract action filed by Scantibodies Laboratory, Inc. (the “Plaintiff”) on April 1, 2014, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company (i) breached two agreements for the manufacture and supply of pregnancy and ovulation test kits by switching suppliers, (ii) failed to give Plaintiff the proper notice, (iii) failed to reimburse Plaintiff for costs and expenses under the agreements and (iv) misrepresented its future requirements. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an amount in excess of $
The Company is vigorously defending itself in this matter. On September 19, 2018, the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, dismissing all claims brought by the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff has filed an appeal.
In connection with this matter, the Company has reserved an amount that is immaterial. However, it is reasonably possible that the Company may ultimately be required to pay all or substantially all of the damages and other amounts sought by Plaintiff in the event the summary judgment entered in favor of the Company is reversed.
f. In addition, in conjunction with the Company’s acquisition and divestiture activities, the Company entered into select guarantees and indemnifications of performance with respect to the fulfillment of the Company’s commitments under applicable purchase and sale agreements. The arrangements generally indemnify the buyer or seller for damages associated with breach of contract, inaccuracies in representations and warranties surviving the closing date and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments retained under the applicable contract. Representations and warranties that survive the closing date generally survive for periods up to five years or the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations. Potential losses under the indemnifications are generally limited to a portion of the original transaction price, or to other lesser specific dollar amounts for select provisions. With respect to sale transactions, the Company also routinely enters into non-competition agreements for varying periods of time. Guarantees and indemnifications with respect to acquisition and divestiture activities, if triggered, could have a materially adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
g. In addition to the matters described above, from time to time in the ordinary course of its business the Company is the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal, regulatory or governmental actions or other proceedings, including, without limitation, those relating to, intellectual property, commercial transactions, product liability, purported consumer class actions, employment matters, antitrust, environmental, health, safety and other compliance related matters. Such proceedings are generally subject to considerable uncertainty and their outcomes, and any related damages, may not be reasonably predictable or estimable.
18
While any such proceedings could result in an adverse outcome for the Company, any such adverse outcome is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Recent Developments
Flawless Acquisition
On May 1, 2019, we closed on our previously announced acquisition of the FLAWLESS™ and FINISHING TOUCH™ hair removal business (“Flawless” and the acquisition, the “Flawless Acquisition”) from Ideavillage Products Corporation (“Ideavillage”). We paid $475.0 at closing and will make an additional earn-out payment up to a maximum of $425.0 in cash, based on a trailing twelve-month net sales target ending no later than December 31, 2021. The transaction was funded with a three-year term loan and commercial paper borrowings. We anticipate there will be a five-month integration transition period in which the net cash received from Ideavillage will be accounted for as other revenue as a component of net sales. We will purchase the inventory following the transition period. FLAWLESS is managed in the Consumer Domestic and Consumer International segments and represents an addition to our specialty haircare portfolio which includes BATISTE dry shampoo, VIVISCAL hair thinning supplements, and TOPPIK hair fibers. Ideavillage will help support the business through a separate long-term transition services agreement.
Amended Credit Agreement
On May 1, 2019, we amended our $1,000.0 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) to extend the term of the Credit Agreement from March 29, 2023 to March 29, 2024. Under the Credit Agreement, we continue to have the ability to increase our borrowing up to an additional $600.0, subject to lender commitments and certain conditions as described in the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for general corporate purposes and are used to support our $1,000.0 commercial paper program.
Term Loan
On May 1, 2019, we entered into a $300.0 unsecured term loan credit facility with various banks, the proceeds of which were used to partially fund the Flawless Acquisition. Unless prepaid, the loan is due on May 1, 2022. The interest rate is LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on our credit rating, which can range from 60 basis points (“bps”) to 113 bps.
Brazil’s Consumer Business
During the second quarter of 2019, we decided to sell and subsequently sold our Brazilian consumer business, resulting in a $7.6 ($0.03 diluted per share) charge recorded in SG&A expense for severance, asset write-offs, and other charges. Net sales for the Brazilian consumer business in 2018 were approximately $15.0 in the Consumer International segment.

Diluted Net Income per share was $0.55 in the second quarter of 2019 as compared to $0.49 in the second quarter of 2018. Diluted Net Income per share was $1.25 in the first six months of 2019 as compared to $1.12 in the same period in 2018. During the second quarter of 2019, we decided to sell and subsequently sold our consumer business in Brazil, and recorded a pre- and post- tax charge of $7.6 ($0.03 diluted per share) in selling and general administrative expenses. During the second quarter of 2019, we increased the estimate of the contingent liability by $5.0 ($3.7 after tax or $0.01 diluted per share) associated with the Flawless Acquisition and reversed the full contingent liability of $7.3 ($5.5 after tax or $0.02 diluted per share) associated with the acquisition of Passport Food and Safety Solutions, Inc. (“Passport,” and the acquisition, the “Passport Acquisition”), based on updated sales forecasts. Both contingent liability adjustments were recorded in SG&A expense.
Net Sales
Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 were $1,079.4, an increase of $51.5 or 5.0% as compared to the same period in 2018. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $2,124.1, an increase of $90.2 or 4.4% over the comparable six month period of 2018. The components of the net sales increase are as follows:

For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the volume change primarily reflects increased product sales in the Consumer International segment, with volume declines in Specialty Products (“SPD”) and Consumer Domestic segments. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, the volume change primarily reflects increased product sales in the Consumer International segment, with volume declines in SPD, while Consumer Domestic volumes remained unchanged. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, price/mix was favorable in all three segments. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, favorable price/mix in the Consumer Domestic and SPD segments was partially offset by unfavorable price/mix in the Consumer International segment.
Gross Profit / Gross Margin
Our gross profit was $481.5 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, a $26.6 increase as compared to the same period in 2018. Gross margin increased 30 basis points (“bps”) in the second quarter of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to favorable price/volume mix of 230 bps, productivity programs of 130 bps, the impact of higher margins on acquired businesses of 40 bps, partially offset by manufacturing cost increases of 290 bps (including tariffs) and higher commodity and transportation costs of 80 bps. Gross profit was $952.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a $45.9 increase compared to the same period of 2018. Gross margin increased 20 bps in the first six months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018, primarily due to favorable price/volume mix of 150 bps, productivity programs of 130 bps, the impact of higher margins on acquired businesses of 20 bps, partially offset by manufacturing cost increases of 190 bps (including tariffs) and higher commodity and transportation costs of 90 bps.
Operating Expenses
Marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 were $129.1, a decrease of $7.3 or 5.4% as compared to the same period in 2018. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2019 decreased by 130 bps to 12.0% as compared to 13.3% in the same period in 2018 due to 70 bps on lower expenses and 60 bps of leverage on higher net sales. Marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 were $227.2, a decrease of $9.1 or 3.9% as compared to the same period in 2018. Marketing expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first six months of 2019 decreased by 90 bps to 10.7% as compared to 11.6% in the same period in 2018 due to 50 bps of leverage on higher net sales and 40 bps on lower expenses.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $165.0 in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $20.3 or 14.0% as compared to the same period in 2018. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 120 bps to 15.3% in the second quarter of 2019 as compared to 14.1% in the same period in 2018. The increase is due to 190 bps on higher expenses, partially offset by 70 bps of leverage associated with higher sales. SG&A for the first six months of 2019 was $296.9, an increase of $20.9 or 7.6% as compared to the same period in 2018. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased 40 bps to 14.0% in the first six months of 2019 compared to 13.6% in 2018 due to 100 bps on higher expenses, partially offset by 60 bps of leverage associated with higher sales. The increase for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 is primarily due to transition and ongoing acquisition-related costs (including the $5.0 Flawless earnout adjustment) and the charge associated with selling our consumer business in Brazil of $7.6, partially offset by the reversal of a $7.3 contingent consideration liability associated with the Passport Acquisition.
Other Income and Expenses
Other expense, net for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased $0.6 and $2.6 respectively, compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates.
Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 decreased $1.3 and $3.6 respectively, as compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to the repayment of the $300.0 Floating Rate Senior Notes that matured on January 25, 2019 and lower commercial paper borrowings in 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. This was partially offset by interest on the $300.0 unsecured term loan credit facility entered into on May 1, 2019.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 was 18.7% and 20.5% respectively, compared to 21.7% and 21.5% in the same periods in 2018. The decrease in the tax rate for both periods is primarily due to a higher tax benefit on a higher amount of stock option exercises.

Includes the Flawless Acquisition since the date of acquisition. |
The increase in net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2019, reflects higher sales of ARM & HAMMER liquid detergent, ARM & HAMMER clumping cat litter, WATERPIK oral care products, OXICLEAN stain fighters, VITAFUSION gummy vitamins, XTRA liquid laundry detergent, ARM & HAMMER scent booster, and BATISTE dry shampoo. The increase in net sales for the six month period ending June 30, 2019, reflects higher sales of ARM & HAMMER liquid detergent, ARM & HAMMER clumping cat litter, WATERPIK oral care products, OXICLEAN stain fighters, XTRA liquid laundry detergent, ARM & HAMMER scent booster, and BATISTE dry shampoo.
There continues to be significant product competition in the gummy vitamin category. The category has grown from eight competitors to 30 in the last five years. We continue to evaluate and vigorously combat these pressures through, among other things, new product introductions and increased marketing and trade spending. However, there is no assurance this category will not decline in the future and that we will be able to offset any such decline.
Consumer Domestic income before income taxes for the second quarter of 2019 was $136.2, a $16.8 increase as compared to the second quarter of 2018. The increase is due primarily to favorable price/mix of $44.9 and lower marketing expenses of $7.0, partially offset by higher SG&A costs of $17.4, unfavorable manufacturing and distribution costs of $14.2 and lower volumes of $4.2. For the six month period ended June 30, 2019, income before income taxes was $318.9, a $40.2 increase as compared to the first six months of 2018. The increase is due primarily to favorable price/mix of $63.9, lower marketing expenses of $11.3 and lower interest and other expenses of $3.7, partially offset by unfavorable manufacturing and distribution costs of $19.6, higher SG&A costs of $16.4 and lower volumes of $2.8.
Consumer International
Consumer International net sales were $186.6 in the second quarter of 2019, an increase of $10.5 or 6.0% as compared to the same period in 2018. Consumer International net sales in the first six months of 2019 were $373.3, an increase of $16.5 or approximately 4.6% as compared to the same period in 2018.

Excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates and the Flawless Acquisition, higher sales in the second quarter ended June 30, 2019 were driven primarily by VITAFUSION and L’IL CRITTERS gummy vitamins, STERIMAR, and ARM & HAMMER baking soda in the Global Markets Group business, BATISTE in the U.K., ARM & HAMMER liquid laundry detergent, STERIMAR, and ARM & HAMMER toothpaste in Mexico. WATERPIK sales grew across the Global Markets Group, Canada, U.K., Australia, and

France. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 higher sales were driven primarily by VITAFUSION & L’IL CRITTERS gummy vitamins, FEMFRESH, STERIMAR, and BATISTE in the Global Markets Group business, ARM & HAMMER cat litter and liquid laundry detergent, TROJAN and VITAFUSION & L’IL CRITTERS gummy vitamins in Canada, ANUSOL and BATISTE in the U.K., and ARM & HAMMER liquid laundry detergent and STERIMAR in Mexico. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, WATERPIK sales grew across the Global Markets Group business, U.K., Canada, Australia, and France.
Consumer International income before income taxes was $16.9 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $1.1 compared to the same period in 2018 due primarily to higher SG&A costs of $11.6, unfavorable manufacturing costs of $3.2, higher marketing expenses of $1.0, and unfavorable foreign exchange rates of $0.9, partially offset by higher sales volumes of $7.7 and favorable price/mix of $6.8. For the first six months of 2019, income before income taxes was $45.3, a $0.4 decrease as compared to the same period in 2018, due primarily to higher SG&A costs of $12.7, unfavorable manufacturing costs of $5.7, higher marketing expenses of $4.8, and unfavorable foreign exchange rates of $2.4, partially offset by higher sales volumes of $18.1 and favorable price/mix of $5.2. The higher SG&A costs for both the three and six months include the $7.6 charge associated with the sale of the Consumer business in Brazil.
Specialty Products (“SPD”)
SPD net sales were $73.5 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $4.2 or 5.4% as compared to the same period in 2018.

Excluding the impact of the acquisition, the net sales decrease in the second quarter and six month period of 2019 was driven by lower volumes in the animal and food production business, partially offset by higher broad-based pricing. Demand in the dairy industry is significantly reduced due to low dairy farm profitability.
SPD income before income taxes was $15.5 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of $0.1 as compared to the same period in 2018 due to unfavorable manufacturing costs of $4.6, higher other SG&A costs of $2.3, and lower sales volumes of $2.0, partially offset by the reversal of a $7.3 contingent consideration liability associated with the Passport acquisition, favorable price/product mix of $1.0, and lower marketing costs of $0.3. SPD income before income taxes was $27.8 in the first six months of 2019, an increase of $0.6 as compared to the same period in 2018 due primarily to the reversal of a $7.3 contingent consideration liability associated with the Passport acquisition, favorable price/product mix of $1.2, and lower marketing costs of $0.4, partially offset by higher other SG&A costs of $3.3, unfavorable manufacturing costs of $3.0 and lower sales volumes of $2.5.
Corporate
The Corporate segment includes equity in earnings of affiliates from Armand and ArmaKleen in the second quarter of 2019 and 2018. The Corporate segment income before income taxes was $1.7 in the second quarter of 2019, as compared to $2.4 in the same period in 2018. The Corporate segment income before income taxes was $3.4 for the first six months of 2019, as compared to $4.5 in the same period in 2018.

On May 1, 2019, we amended our $1,000.0 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”) to extend the term of the Credit Agreement from March 29, 2023 to March 29, 2024. Under the Credit Agreement, we continue to have the ability to increase our borrowing up to an additional $600.0, subject to lender commitments and certain conditions as described in the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are available for general corporate purposes and are used to support our $1,000.0 commercial paper program.
26
On May 1, 2019, we entered into a $300.0 unsecured term loan credit facility with various banks, the proceeds of which were used to partially fund the Flawless Acquisition. Unless prepaid, the loan is due on May 1, 2022. The interest rate is LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on our credit rating, which can range from 60 bps to 113 bps.
As of June 30, 2019, we had $97.9 in cash and cash equivalents, and approximately $886.9 available through the revolving facility under our Credit Agreement and our commercial paper program. To preserve our liquidity, we invest cash primarily in government money market funds, prime money market funds, short-term commercial paper and short-term bank deposits.
We repatriate excess cash held at our foreign subsidiaries. We repatriated approximately $13.0 during the second quarter of 2019 and $28.0 during the first six months of 2019. As of June 30, 2019, there is $47.0 of cash and cash equivalents held at foreign subsidiaries.
The current economic environment presents risks that could have adverse consequences for our liquidity. See “Unfavorable economic conditions could adversely affect demand for our products” under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 (the “Form 10-K”). We do not anticipate that current economic conditions will adversely affect our ability to comply with the financial covenant in the Credit Agreement because we currently are, and anticipate that we will continue to be, in compliance with the maximum leverage ratio requirement under the Credit Agreement.
On February 5, 2019, the Board declared a 5% increase in the regular quarterly dividend from $0.2175 to $0.2275 per share, equivalent to an annual dividend of $0.91 per share. The increase raises the annual dividend payout from $213.3 to approximately $225.0.
In connection with the evergreen repurchase program, in January 2019, we executed open market purchases of $100.0 of our Common Stock.
We anticipate that our cash from operations, together with our current borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to meet our capital expenditure program costs, which are expected to be approximately $85.0 in 2019, fund our share repurchase programs to the extent implemented by management, pay the upcoming maturing notes and pay dividends at the latest approved rate. Cash, together with our current borrowing capacity, may be used for acquisitions that would complement our existing product lines or geographic markets. We did not have any mandatory fixed rate debt principal payments in 2018. We paid the $300.0 Floating Rate Senior Notes that matured on January 25, 2019 with cash on hand and commercial paper. The $300.0 Senior Notes (2.45%) will mature on December 15, 2019 and we currently intend to repay these notes with cash on hand and commercial paper borrowing if necessary.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities – Our primary source of liquidity is the cash flow provided by operating activities, which is dependent on net income and changes in working capital. Our net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 increased by $28.5 to $351.2 as compared to $322.7 in the same period in 2018 due to higher cash earnings (net income plus non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization, and non-cash compensation) partially offset by an increase in working capital. The change in working capital is primarily due to a larger increase in accounts receivable due to the timing of sales and a smaller increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses due to higher incentive compensation and profit sharing payments partially offset by our continued program to extend payment terms with our suppliers. However, we measure working capital effectiveness based on our cash conversion cycle. The following table presents our cash conversion cycle information for the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

Our cash conversion cycle (defined as the sum of DSO and DIO less DPO) which is calculated using a two period average method, remained consistent compared to the same period in 2018. DIO increased three days from 57 to 60 days, DPO increased three days from 65 to 68 days and DSO remained consistent compared to the same period in 2018. We continue to focus on reducing our working capital requirements.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2019 was $502.4, primarily reflecting $475.0 for the Flawless acquisition, and $23.6 for property, plant and equipment additions. Net cash used in investing activities during the first six months of 2018 was $71.2, primarily reflecting $49.8 for the Passport Acquisition, and $19.6 for property, plant and equipment additions.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities – Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2019 was $67.7, reflecting $100.0 of repurchases of our common stock (“Common Stock”), $112.0 of cash dividend payments, partially offset by $109.8 of net debt borrowings and $37.0 of proceeds from stock option exercises. Net cash used in financing activities during the first six months of 2018 was $439.5, reflecting $200.0 of repurchases of our common stock (“Common Stock”), $106.2 of cash dividend payments, $159.8 of debt payments, partially offset by $28.9 of proceeds from stock option exercises.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) at the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report, are effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the disclosure.
b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurring during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
General
The Company, in the ordinary course of its business, is subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal actions, government investigations and proceedings from time to time, including, without limitation, those relating to commercial transactions, product liability, purported consumer class actions, employment matters, antitrust, environmental, health, safety and other compliance related matters. Such proceedings are subject to many uncertainties and the outcome of certain pending or threatened legal actions may not be reasonably predictable and any related damages may not be estimable. Certain legal actions, including the one described below, could result in an adverse outcome for us, and any such adverse outcome could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Scantibodies Laboratory, Inc.
The Company has been named as a defendant in a breach of contract action filed by Scantibodies Laboratory, Inc. (the “Plaintiff”) on April 1, 2014, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.
The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company (i) breached two agreements for the manufacture and supply of pregnancy and ovulation test kits by switching suppliers, (ii) failed to give Plaintiff the proper notice, (iii) failed to reimburse Plaintiff for costs and expenses under the agreements and (iv) misrepresented its future requirements. The complaint seeks compensatory and punitive damages in an amount in excess of $20.0 million, as well as declaratory relief, statutory prejudgment interest and attorneys’ fees and costs.
The Company is vigorously defending itself in this matter. On September 19, 2018, the court granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment, dismissing all claims brought by the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff has filed an appeal.
In connection with this matter, the Company has reserved an amount that is immaterial. However, it is reasonably possible that the Company may ultimately be required to pay all or substantially all of the damages and other amounts sought by Plaintiff in the event the summary judgment entered in favor of the Company is reversed.
ITEM 1A. |
RISK FACTORS |
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K, which could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition or future results.
