NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 . Accounting Policies

Background and Basis of Presentation

Halyard Health, Inc. is a global business which seeks to advance health and healthcare by preventing infection, eliminating pain and speeding recovery. Our products and solutions are designed to address some of today’s most important healthcare needs, namely, preventing infections and reducing the use of narcotics while helping patients move from surgery to recovery. We market and support the efficacy, safety and economic benefit of our products with a significant body of clinical evidence. We operate in two business segments: Surgical and Infection Prevention (“S&IP”) and Medical Devices.

References to “Halyard,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Halyard Health, Inc. References to “Kimberly-Clark” mean Kimberly-Clark Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries, other than Halyard, unless the context otherwise requires.

In November 2013, Kimberly-Clark announced its intention to evaluate a potential tax-free spin-off of its health care business (the “Spin-off”). Halyard Health, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in February 2014 for the purpose of holding the health care business following the separation. The Spin-off was completed on October 31, 2014 and Kimberly-Clark’s health care business became Halyard Health, Inc.

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 represent our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as an independent publicly-traded company. The condensed combined financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 represent the results of operations and cash flows of Kimberly-Clark’s health care business.

Interim Financial Statements

We prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments which are of a normal and recurring nature necessary to fairly state our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Certain prior period amounts have been conformed to current presentation.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, distributor rebate accruals, future cash flows associated with impairment testing for goodwill and long-lived assets, loss contingencies, and deferred tax assets and potential income tax assessments. Actual results could differ from these estimates, and the effect of the change could be material to our financial statements. Changes in these estimates are recorded when known.

As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we completed the required annual testing of goodwill for impairment for all reporting units using the beginning of the third quarter of 2014 as the measurement date and our analysis indicated that we had no impairment of goodwill. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , we determined that there were no conditions or changes that would indicate that our goodwill may be impaired.

New Accounting Standards

In April 2015 , the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement. This ASU provides guidance about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license and the appropriate accounting for such arrangements. Notably, the guidance in this ASU already exists in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 985-605, Software - Revenue Recognition, which is used by cloud service providers to determine whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. This ASU will become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 . Early adoption of this ASU is permitted. The application of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015 , the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This ASU addresses the different balance sheet presentation requirements for debt issuance costs, discounts and premiums under the FASB ASC Subtopic 835-30, Interest - Imputation of Interest . Currently, GAAP recognizes debt issuance costs as a deferred charge (i.e., an

Table of Contents

asset), which conflicts with FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements , which says that debt issuance costs are similar to debt discounts and reduce the proceeds of borrowing, thereby increasing the effective interest rate. Accordingly, ASU No. 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU will become effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 . Early adoption will be permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Application of this ASU will result in the reclassification of our debt issuance costs of approximately $9 million as of each quarter ended March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 from other assets to long-term debt.

In January 2015 , the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. ASU No. 2015-01 eliminates ASC Subtopic 225-20, Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items , which, until now, required that an entity separately classify, present, and disclose transactions and events that were determined to be both unusual and infrequent as extraordinary items. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 . A reporting entity may apply the amendments (i) prospectively or (ii) retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The application of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In August 2014 , the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties About an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, that will require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. In connection with each annual and interim period, management will assess if there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the issuance date. Substantial doubt exists if it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations within one year after the issuance date. The new standard defines substantial doubt and provides example indicators. Disclosures will be required if conditions give rise to substantial doubt. However, management will need to assess if its plans will alleviate substantial doubt to determine the specific disclosures. This ASU will become effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 . Earlier application is permitted. The application of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In May 2014 , the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. This ASU is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017 . Adoption prior to interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016 is not permitted. The guidance permits two implementation approaches, one requiring retrospective application of the new ASU with restatement of prior years and one requiring prospective application of the new ASU with disclosure of results under old standards. The effects of this ASU on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows are not yet known.

Note 2 . Spin-Off Transition Costs

Completion of the Sale of Disposable Glove Facility

In June 2014 , Kimberly-Clark initiated a plan to exit one of the disposable glove facilities in Thailand and outsource the related production to improve the competitive position of the S&IP business. In December 2014 , we entered into a definitive agreement to sell the disposable glove facility to a third party and received advance cash payments of $8 million before the end of 2014 , which were included in “Accrued Expenses” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 . The net book value of the disposable glove facility was $3 million and was classified as “Assets Held for Sale” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 . We received the remaining $8 million of the sale price when the sale closed in January 2015 . The sale resulted in a net gain of $12 million , which was recorded in “Other income, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated income statement for the six months ended June 30, 2015 . There were no remaining accrued expenses related to this plan as of June 30, 2015 . In the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , we recognized $49 million of costs related to this plan consisting of an asset impairment charge of $42 million and workforce reduction costs of $7 million .

Manufacturing Alignment, Marketing and Rebranding and Incremental Transition Services from Kimberly-Clark

As a result of the Spin-off, we are making changes to our plant and equipment, primarily in North America to align with our manufacturing requirements. These changes will include modifications to certain equipment and the movement of health care equipment from Kimberly-Clark locations to Halyard facilities.

We are undertaking efforts to ensure our customers’ transition from the Kimberly-Clark brand to our Halyard-branded products. We have entered into a royalty agreement under which we have access to use the Kimberly-Clark brand for up to 24 months as we manage the packaging changes with global regulatory bodies. Royalties are required to be paid for products sold bearing the Kimberly-Clark brand only. In addition to royalty expense, we expect to incur costs for packaging, marketing and regulatory approval in order to complete this transition.

Table of Contents

While building our own capabilities as a stand-alone company, we have entered into transition service agreements with Kimberly-Clark to provide temporary supporting services until we have the necessary resources and infrastructure in place.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 we have incurred $20 million and $30 million , respectively, for the above programs. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 we incurred $19 million and $26 million , respectively, for Spin-off related transaction costs.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) will mature on October 15, 2022 and interest will accrue at a rate of 6.25% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

Senior Secured Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility

The senior secured term loan is under a credit agreement that established credit facilities in an aggregate principal amount of $640 million , including a five -year senior secured revolving credit facility allowing borrowings of up to $250 million , with a letter of credit sub-facility in an amount of $75 million and a swingline sub-facility in an amount of $25 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), and a seven -year senior secured term loan of $390 million (the “Term Loan Facility” and together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”). The Term Loan Facility is secured by substantially all of our assets located in the United States and a certain percentage of our foreign subsidiaries’ capital stock.

On April 30, 2015 , we made a $50 million principal payment on our senior secured term loan without prepayment penalties pursuant to the terms of the governing loan agreement. We recognized a charge of $1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015 related to the write-off of related debt issuance costs and original issue discount. Following this principal payment, quarterly amortization payments are no longer required for the senior secured term loan, resulting in the balance of the loan to be classified as long-term debt.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest, at Halyard’s option, at either (i) a reserve-adjusted LIBOR rate, subject to a floor of 0.75% , plus 3.25% , or (ii) a base rate, subject to a floor of 0.75% , (calculated as the greatest of (1) the prime rate, (2) the U.S. federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% or (3) the one month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% ) plus 2.25% . The Term Loan Facility requires quarterly amortization payments equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the term loans outstanding on the closing date. As of June 30, 2015 , the interest rate in effect for the Term Loan Facility was 4.00% .

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest, at Halyard’s option, at either (i) a reserve-adjusted LIBOR rate, plus a margin initially equal to 2.25% and then, following Halyard’s delivery under the credit agreement of Halyard’s financial statements for Halyard’s fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2015 , ranging between 1.75% to 2.50% per annum, depending on Halyard’s consolidated total leverage ratio, or (ii) the base rate plus a margin initially equal to 1.25% and then, following Halyard’s delivery of those financial statements, ranging between 0.75% to 1.50% per annum, depending on Halyard’s consolidated total leverage ratio. The unused portion of Halyard’s Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to a commitment fee equal to (i) 0.25% per annum, when Halyard’s consolidated total leverage ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.00 and (ii) 0.40% per annum, otherwise. As of June 30, 2015 , we had no borrowings and letters of credit of $3 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, leaving $247 million available for borrowing.

Note 5 . Derivative Financial Instruments

The derivative liabilities for foreign exchange contracts as of each June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were $1 million and are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in accrued expenses. The derivative assets for foreign exchange contracts as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were not significant.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, gains or losses recognized to earnings were not significant in the three or six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . As of June 30, 2015 , the aggregate notional values of outstanding foreign exchange derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges were $40 million . Cash flow hedges resulted in no significant ineffectiveness in the three or six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , no gains or losses were reclassified into earnings as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges due to the original forecasted transaction no longer being probable of occurring. At June 30, 2015 , amounts to be reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income during the next twelve months are not expected to be significant. The maximum maturity of cash flow hedges in place at June 30, 2015 is June 2016 .

Gains or losses on undesignated foreign exchange hedging instruments are immediately recognized in other income and expense, net. These gains or losses have not been significant for the three or six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . The effect on earnings from the use of these non-designated derivatives is substantially neutralized by the transactional gains and losses recorded on the underlying assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 2015 , the notional amount of these undesignated derivative instruments was $89 million .

Note 6 . Fair Value Information

The following fair value information is based on a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The three levels in the hierarchy used to measure fair value are:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets accessible at the reporting date for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2—Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not considered active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3—Prices or valuations that require inputs that are significant to the valuation and are unobservable.

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , there were no transfers among Level 1, 2 or 3 fair value determinations.

The derivative liabilities for foreign exchange contracts were $1 million as of both June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in accrued expenses. These derivatives are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of derivatives used to manage foreign currency risk is based on published quotations of spot currency rates and forward points, which are converted into implied forward currency rates.

The following table includes the fair value of our cash, cash equivalents and financial instruments for which fair value disclosure is required (in millions):



		June 30, 2015				December 31, 2014
	Fair Value Hierarchy Level	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Assets
Cash and cash equivalents	1	$	114.3	$	114.3	$	149.0	$	149.0
Liabilities
Debt	2	585.8		603.6		636.2		644.0

Cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.

Equity Participation Plan and the Halyard Health, Inc. Outside Directors’ Compensation Plan (together, the “Plans”). Aggregate stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1 million and $2 million , which reflects expense allocated to us for awards granted under Kimberly-Clark’s equity incentive plans.

Stock Options

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was $3 million and $4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 . A summary of stock option activity under the Plans is presented below:

Prior Year Expense under Kimberly-Clark Equity Incentive Plans

Kimberly-Clark maintains several equity incentive plans in which our executives and employees participated prior to the Spin-off. All awards granted under Kimberly-Clark’s plans were based on common shares of Kimberly-Clark stock and, as such, were reflected in Kimberly-Clark’s consolidated statements of equity and not in our combined statement of invested equity. Prior to the Spin-off, Kimberly-Clark allocated stock-based compensation expense to Halyard for employees of Kimberly-Clark’s health care business that became Halyard employees upon the Spin-off. Stock-based compensation expense charged to us by Kimberly-Clark under their incentive plans was $1 million and $2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively.

Note 9 . Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to various legal proceedings, claims and governmental inspections, audits or investigations pertaining to issues such as contract disputes, product liability, tax matters, patents and trademarks, advertising, governmental regulations, employment and other matters, including the matters described below. Under the terms of the distribution agreement we entered into with Kimberly-Clark prior to the Spin-off, legal proceedings, claims and other liabilities that are primarily related to our business are our responsibility and we are obligated to indemnify and hold Kimberly-Clark harmless for such matters (“Indemnification Obligation”).

The only exception to the Indemnification Obligation relates to the pain pump litigation referenced in this paragraph. We are one of several manufacturers of continuous infusion medical devices, such as our ON-Q PAINBUSTER pain pumps, that are involved in several different pending or threatened litigation matters from multiple plaintiffs alleging that use of the continuous infusion device to deliver anesthetics directly into a synovial joint after surgery resulted in postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis, or a disintegration of the cartilage covering the bones in the joint (typically, in the shoulder). Plaintiffs generally seek monetary damages and attorneys’ fees. While Kimberly-Clark is retaining the liabilities related to these matters, the distribution agreement between us and Kimberly-Clark provides that we will indemnify Kimberly-Clark for any such claims or causes of actions arising after the Spin-off.

We have an Indemnification Obligation for, and have assumed the defense of, the matter styled Shahinian, et al. v. Kimberly-Clark Corporation, et al., No. 2:14-cv-08390-DMG-SH (C.D. Cal.), filed on October 29, 2014. In that case, the plaintiff brings a putative nationwide class action asserting claims for common law fraud (affirmative misrepresentation and fraudulent concealment), negligent misrepresentation, and violation of California’s Unfair Competition Law in connection with our marketing and sale of MicroCool surgical gowns. On February 6, 2015, we moved to dismiss the complaint on multiple grounds. On July 10, 2015, the Court issued an order on the motion to dismiss, dismissing the negligent misrepresentation claim but permitting the remaining claims to stand and proceed to discovery. At this stage of the proceedings, we are not able to estimate any range of potential loss. We intend to continue our vigorous defense of the matter.

In June 2015, we were served with a subpoena from the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of the Inspector General (“VA OIG”) seeking information related to the design, manufacture, testing, sale and promotion of MicroCool and other Company surgical gowns, and, in July, also became aware that the subpoena and an earlier VA OIG subpoena served on Kimberly-Clark requesting information about gown sales to the federal government are related to a United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) investigation. No claims have been asserted against Kimberly-Clark or the Company by the VA OIG or the DOJ at this time. If a claim is asserted against Kimberly-Clark relating to MicroCool gowns, we expect that such a claim would give rise to an Indemnification Obligation under the distribution agreement with Kimberly-Clark. The Company is cooperating with the VA OIG’s request and the DOJ investigation.

We operate in an industry characterized by extensive patent litigation and competitors may claim that our products infringe upon their intellectual property. Resolution of patent litigation or other intellectual property claims is typically time consuming and costly and can result in significant damage awards and injunctions that could prevent the manufacture and sale of the affected products or require us to make significant royalty payments in order to continue selling the affected products. At any

Table of Contents

given time we are involved as either a plaintiff or a defendant in a number of patent infringement actions, the outcomes of which may not be known for prolonged periods of time.

Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the ultimate disposition of these matters, to the extent not previously provided for, will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

We are subject to federal, state and local environmental protection laws and regulations with respect to our business operations and are operating in compliance with, or taking action aimed at ensuring compliance with, these laws and regulations. None of our compliance obligations with environmental protection laws and regulations, individually or in the aggregate, is expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 10 . Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the effect of all dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during each period, as determined using the treasury stock method. The contribution of Kimberly-Clark’s Health Care business to us was treated as a reorganization of entities under common control under Kimberly-Clark. Consequently, we are retrospectively reporting EPS for the prior year using the 46.5 million weighted average shares outstanding as of the Spin-off date for both basic and diluted EPS as no Halyard common stock or dilutive stock-based compensation awards were authorized or outstanding prior to the Spin-off.

The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 is set forth in the following table (in millions, except per share amounts):



	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

Note 12 . Related Party Transactions

In the prior year, we utilized manufacturing facilities and resources managed by affiliates of Kimberly-Clark to conduct our business. The expenses associated with these transactions, which primarily relate to production of semi-finished goods for our S&IP business, are included in cost of products sold in our combined income statement for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 . Following the Spin-off, Kimberly-Clark is not considered a related party.

In the prior year, our combined financial statements include certain expenses of Kimberly-Clark which were allocated to us for certain functions, including general expenses related to supply chain, finance, legal, information technology, human resources, compliance, shared services, insurance, employee benefits and incentives and stock-based compensation. These expenses were allocated to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the relative percentage of net sales or headcount. The total amount of these allocations from Kimberly-Clark was approximately as follows (in millions):



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2014		Six Months Ended June 30, 2014

Note 13 . Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information

In October 2014, Halyard Health, Inc. (referred to below as “Parent”) issued the Notes (described in Note 4 , “Long-Term Debt”). The Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally by each of our domestic subsidiaries that guarantees the Senior Credit Facilities (each, a “Guarantor Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions as defined in the Indenture dated October 17, 2014. Each Guarantor Subsidiary is directly or indirectly 100% -owned by Halyard Health, Inc. Each of the guarantees of the Notes is a general unsecured obligation of each Guarantor and ranks equally in right of payment with all existing and future indebtedness and all other obligations (except subordinated indebtedness) of each Guarantor.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to provide investors with an understanding of our recent performance, and should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in Item 1, “Financial Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This MD&A represents the global operations of Halyard and its subsidiaries as an independent publicly-traded company in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and as a combined reporting entity comprising the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Kimberly-Clark Corporation’s (“Kimberly-Clark”) Health Care business in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 . The results of operations of our business after our separation from Kimberly-Clark are significantly different than the results of operations of our business prior to the separation. This is due to, among other things, the impact of debt incurred, the impact of our operating as a separate, stand-alone public company and the impact of the various agreements between us and Kimberly-Clark.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated and combined financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 .

The following will be discussed and analyzed:


•	Overview of Business


•	Spin-off Transition Costs


•	Results of Operations and Related Information


•	Liquidity and Capital Resources


•	Legal Matters


•	New Accounting Standards

Overview of Business

Halyard is a global company which seeks to advance health and healthcare by preventing infection, eliminating pain and speeding recovery. Our products and solutions are designed to address some of today’s most important healthcare needs, namely, preventing infection and reducing the use of narcotics while helping patients move from surgery to recovery. We market and support the efficacy, safety and economic benefit of our products with a significant body of clinical evidence. We have two business segments: Surgical and Infection Prevention (“S&IP”) and Medical Devices.

Spin-off Transition Costs

We are undertaking efforts to ensure our customers transition from the Kimberly-Clark brand to our Halyard-branded products. We have entered into a royalty agreement under which we have access to use the Kimberly-Clark brand for up to 24 months as we manage the packaging changes with global regulatory bodies. Royalties are required to be paid for products sold bearing the Kimberly-Clark brand only. In addition to royalty expense, we expect to incur costs for packaging, marketing and regulatory approval in order to complete this transition.

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 we have incurred $20 million , ( $12 million , net of tax) and $30 million ( $19 million , net of tax), respectively, for the above programs.

Results of Operations and Related Information

This section presents a discussion and analysis of our net sales, operating profit and other information relevant to an understanding of our results of operations. This discussion and analysis compares the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 to the same period in 2014 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

In the prior year, Kimberly-Clark provided financing, cash management and other treasury services to us. In North America, our cash balances were swept daily by Kimberly-Clark and we received funding from Kimberly-Clark for most of our operating and investing cash needs. Cash transferred to and from Kimberly-Clark was recorded as intercompany receivables and payables. Upon our separation from Kimberly-Clark, we maintain our own cash management and financing functions for our operations. Following our separation from Kimberly-Clark, our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash provided by operating activities and amounts available under our revolving credit facility, as described below.

Operating Activities

Operating activities provided $56 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $84 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 , with the decrease primarily driven by changes in operating assets and liabilities, a non-cash gain from the sale of one of our exam glove manufacturing facilities and lower net income.

Investing Activities

Investing activities used $38 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to $28 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 . Capital expenditures were $45 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 and were primarily associated with our separation from Kimberly-Clark and modifying facilities necessary to operate as a stand-alone company. Capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2015 were partially offset by remaining proceeds from the sale of our exam glove manufacturing facility in Thailand of $8 million .

Financing Activities

Financing activities used $51 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 , which was a $1 million scheduled principal payment, a $50 million prepayment of principal on our senior secured term loan and $1 million to purchase treasury stock partially offset by $1 million of proceeds from stock option exercises. Financing activities used $51 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 , and was primarily net transfers to Kimberly-Clark.

As of June 30, 2015 , debt, including debt payable within one year, was $586 million and consisted of (i) $336 million , net of unamortized discount, on our Senior Secured Term Loan and $250 million of Senior Unsecured Notes.

Funds under the revolving credit facility are available for our working capital and other liquidity requirements. As of June 30, 2015 , we had no borrowings and letters of credit of $3 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility, leaving $247 million available for borrowing. See Note 4 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, “Long-Term Debt” for further details regarding our debt agreements.

On April 30, 2015 , we made a $50 million principal payment on our senior secured term loan without prepayment penalties pursuant to the terms of the governing loan agreement. We recognized a charge of $1 million in the second quarter of 2015 related to the write-off of related debt issuance costs and original issue discount. Following this principal payment, quarterly amortization payments are no longer required for the senior secured term loan, resulting in the balance of the loan to be classified as long-term debt.

We will incur significant interest expense and financial obligations related to our senior notes, secured term loan and revolving credit facility. We will continue to make capital expenditures to introduce new products, enhance the efficacy, reliability and safety of our existing products and to maximize cost savings.

We believe that our ability to generate cash from operations and our existing available credit facilities are adequate to fund our requirements for working capital, capital expenditures and other needs for the foreseeable future.

Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

With the participation of management, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) carried out an evaluation, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively as of June 30, 2015 .

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Historically, we have relied on Kimberly-Clark’s financial controls and resources to manage certain aspects of our business and report our results. As a result of the Spin-off, we are in the process of reviewing, revising and adopting policies, as needed, to meet all regulatory requirements applicable to us as an independent, publicly-traded company. While many of these changes in staffing, policies and systems were accomplished prior to June 30, 2015 , we continue to review and document our internal controls over financial reporting and may, from time to time, make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness. These efforts may lead to changes in our internal control over financial reporting.

Other than those noted above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during three and six months ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
