THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1.    Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. (the company or Thermo Fisher) enables customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer by helping them accelerate life sciences research, solve complex analytical challenges, improve patient diagnostics and therapies, and increase laboratory productivity. Markets served include pharmaceutical and biotech, academic and government, industrial and applied, as well as healthcare and diagnostics.
Interim Financial Statements
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the company, are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the financial position at July 3, 2021, the results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020, and the cash flows for the six-month periods ended July 3, 2021 and June 27, 2020. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet presented as of December 31, 2020, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain all information that is included in the annual financial statements and notes thereto of the company. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included in this report should be read in conjunction with the 2020 financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for 2020 describes the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements. There have been no material changes in the company’s significant accounting policies during the six months ended July 3, 2021.
Inventories
The components of inventories are as follows:
July 3, December 31,
(In millions) 2021 2020
Raw Materials $ 1,622 $ 1,305
Work in Process 652 540
Finished Goods 2,351 2,184
Inventories $ 4,625 $ 4,029
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.
The company’s estimates include, among others, asset reserve requirements as well as the amounts of future cash flows associated with certain assets and businesses that are used in assessing the risk of impairment. Risks and uncertainties associated with the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic materially adversely affected certain of the company’s businesses in 2020, particularly in the Analytical Instruments segment and, to a lesser extent, some businesses within the other three segments. The negative impacts have significantly lessened so far in 2021. The extent and duration of negative impacts in the future are uncertain and may require changes to estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2021, the FASB amended guidance to require lessors to classify leases as operating leases if they have certain variable lease payment structures and would have selling losses if they were classified as sales-type or direct financing leases. The company expects to adopt the guidance in the third quarter of 2021 using a prospective method. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.
8


THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. Among other things, the new guidance requires the effects of enacted changes in tax laws or rates to be reflected in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The company adopted this guidance in 2021 using a prospective method. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements; however, the impact in future periods will be dependent on the extent of future events or conditions that would be affected such as enacted changes in tax laws or rates.

Note 2.    Acquisitions
The company’s acquisitions have historically been made at prices above the determined fair value of the acquired identifiable net assets, resulting in goodwill, primarily due to expectations of the synergies that will be realized by combining the businesses. These synergies include the elimination of redundant facilities, functions and staffing; use of the company’s existing commercial infrastructure to expand sales of the acquired businesses’ products; and use of the commercial infrastructure of the acquired businesses to cost-effectively expand sales of company products.
Acquisitions have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, and the acquired companies’ results have been included in the accompanying financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.
Pending Acquisition
On April 15, 2021, the company entered into a definitive agreement under which it will acquire PPD, Inc. for $ 47.50 per share for a total cash purchase price of $ 17.4 billion plus the assumption of approximately $ 3.5 billion of net debt. PPD provides a broad range of clinical research and specialized laboratory services to enable customers to accelerate innovation and increase drug development productivity. Upon close of the transaction, PPD will become part of the Laboratory Products and Services Segment. Shareholders holding in aggregate approximately 60 % of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of PPD on April 15, 2021, have approved the transaction by written consent. No further action by other PPD shareholders is required to approve the transaction. The transaction is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals. On July 16, 2021, the company and PPD each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (collectively, the “Second Request”) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), in connection with the FTC’s review of the proposed merger. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), until the 30th day after substantial compliance by the company and PPD with the Second Request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Subject to the satisfaction of the required closing conditions, we continue to expect the merger to be completed by the end of 2021.
2021
On January 15, 2021, the company acquired, within the Laboratory Products and Services segment, the Belgium-based European viral vector manufacturing business of Groupe Novasep SAS for approximately $ 834 million in net cash consideration. The European viral vector manufacturing business provides manufacturing services for vaccines and therapies to biotechnology companies and large biopharma customers. The acquisition expands the segment’s capabilities for cell and gene vaccines and therapies. The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is not tax deductible.
On February 25, 2021, the company acquired, within the Life Sciences Solutions segment, Mesa Biotech, Inc., a U.S.-based molecular diagnostic company, for approximately $ 406 million in net cash consideration and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $ 65 million due upon the completion of certain milestones. Mesa Biotech has developed and commercialized a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based rapid point-of-care testing platform available for detecting infectious diseases including COVID-19. The acquisition enables the company to accelerate the availability of reliable and accurate advanced molecular diagnostics at the point of care. The goodwill recorded as a result of the acquisition is not tax deductible.
In addition, in the first six months of 2021 the company acquired, within the Life Sciences Solutions segment, cell sorting technology assets, an Ireland-based life sciences distributor and a developer of a digital PCR platform.

The weighted-average amortization periods for definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2021 are 14 years for customer relationships, 7 years for product technology and 3 years for tradenames. The weighted average amortization period for all definite-lived intangible assets acquired in 2021 is 9 years.
The preliminary allocation of the purchase price for the acquisition of the European viral vectors business was based on estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired and is subject to adjustment upon finalization, largely with respect to acquired intangible assets and the related deferred taxes. Measurements of these items inherently require significant estimates and assumptions.

The company has operations and a taxable presence in approximately 50 countries outside the U.S. The company's effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate each year due to certain operations that are subject to tax incentives, state and local taxes, and foreign taxes that are different than the U.S. federal statutory rate.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
As of July 3, 2021, the company had $ 1.13 billion of unrecognized tax benefits substantially all of which, if recognized, would reduce the effective tax rate.

In connection with the agreement to acquire PPD (Note 2), the company has available, but does not currently expect to utilize, up to $ 6.5 billion of committed bridge financing. The company intends to finance the purchase price with cash on hand and the net proceeds from issuance of debt. The company is currently evaluating future debt financings and the timing of such transactions is subject to market and other conditions. The company had a cash outlay of $ 29 million in 2021 associated with obtaining the bridge commitment included in other financing activities, net, in the accompanying statement of cash flows.

Credit Facilities
The company has a revolving credit facility (the Facility) with a bank group that provides for up to $ 3.00 billion of unsecured multi-currency revolving credit. The Facility expires on December 4, 2025. The revolving credit agreement calls for interest at either a LIBOR-based rate (or LIBOR successor rate), a EURIBOR-based rate (for funds drawn in euro) or a rate based on the prime lending rate of the agent bank, at the company’s option. The agreement contains affirmative, negative and financial covenants, and events of default customary for facilities of this type. The covenants in the Facility include a Consolidated Net Interest Coverage Ratio (Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Net Interest Expense), as such terms are defined in the Facility. Specifically, the company has agreed that, so long as any lender has any commitment under the Facility, any letter of credit is outstanding under the Facility, or any loan or other obligation is outstanding under the Facility, it will maintain a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of 3.5 :1.0 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. As of July 3, 2021, no borrowings were outstanding under the Facility, although available capacity was reduced by approximately $ 4 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit.
Commercial Paper Programs
The company has commercial paper programs pursuant to which it may issue and sell unsecured, short-term promissory notes (CP Notes). Under the U.S. program, a) maturities may not exceed 397 days from the date of issue and b) the CP Notes are issued on a private placement basis under customary terms in the commercial paper market and are not redeemable prior to maturity nor subject to voluntary prepayment. Under the euro program, maturities may not exceed 183 days and may be denominated in euro, U.S. dollars, Japanese yen, British pounds sterling, Swiss franc, Canadian dollars or other currencies. Under both programs, the CP Notes are issued at a discount from par (or premium to par, in the case of negative interest rates), or, alternatively, are sold at par and bear varying interest rates on a fixed or floating basis. As of July 3, 2021, there were no outstanding borrowings under these programs.
Senior Notes
Interest is payable annually on the euro-denominated senior notes and semi-annually on all other senior notes. Each of the notes may be redeemed at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount plus a specified make-whole premium and accrued interest. The company is subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants under the indentures governing the senior notes, the most restrictive of which limits the ability of the company to pledge principal properties as security under borrowing arrangements. The company was in compliance with all covenants at July 3, 2021.
In the first quarter of 2021, the company redeemed some of its existing senior notes. In connection with these redemptions, the company incurred $ 197 million of losses on the early extinguishment of debt included in Other (Expense) Income on the accompanying statement of income. Upon redemption of the senior notes, the company terminated the related fixed to floating rate interest rate swap arrangements and received $ 22 million, included in other financing activities, net, in the accompanying statement of cash flows.

Note 8.    Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental Matters
The company is currently involved in various stages of investigation and remediation related to environmental matters. The company cannot predict all potential costs related to environmental remediation matters and the possible impact on future operations given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the complexity and interpretation of applicable laws and regulations, the varying costs of alternative cleanup methods and the extent of the company’s responsibility. Expenses for environmental remediation matters related to the costs of installing, operating and maintaining groundwater-treatment systems and other remedial activities related to historical environmental contamination at the company’s domestic and international facilities were not material in any period presented. At July 3, 2021, there have been no material changes to the accruals for pending environmental-related matters disclosed in the company’s 2020 financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. While management believes the accruals for environmental remediation are adequate based on current estimates of remediation costs, the company may be subject to additional remedial or compliance costs due to future events such as changes in existing laws and regulations, changes in agency direction or enforcement policies, developments in remediation technologies or changes in the conduct of the company’s operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Litigation and Related Contingencies
The company is involved in various disputes, governmental and/or regulatory inspections, inquiries, investigations and proceedings, and litigation matters that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The disputes and litigation matters include product liability, intellectual property, employment and commercial issues. Due to the inherent uncertainties associated with pending litigation or claims, the company cannot predict the outcome, nor, with respect to certain pending litigation or claims where no liability has been accrued, make a meaningful estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome. The company has no material accruals for pending litigation or claims for which accrual amounts are not disclosed in the company's 2020 financial statements and notes included in the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, nor are material losses deemed probable for such matters. It is reasonably possible, however, that an unfavorable outcome that exceeds the company’s current accrual estimate, if any, for one or more of the matters described below could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
Product Liability, Workers Compensation and Other Personal Injury Matters
The company is involved in various proceedings and litigation that arise from time to time in connection with product liability, workers compensation and other personal injury matters. At July 3, 2021, there have been no material changes to the accruals for pending product liability, workers compensation, and other personal injury matters disclosed in the company’s 2020 financial statements and notes included in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although the company believes that the amounts accrued and estimated insurance recoveries are probable and appropriate based on available information, including actuarial studies of loss estimates, the process of estimating losses and insurance recoveries involves a considerable degree of judgment by management and the ultimate amounts could vary, which could have a material adverse effect on the company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows. Insurance contracts do not relieve the company of its primary obligation with respect to any losses incurred. The collectability of amounts due from its insurers is subject to the solvency and willingness of the insurer to pay, as well as the legal sufficiency of the insurance claims. Management monitors the payment history as well as the financial condition and ratings of its insurers on an ongoing basis.
Strategic Partnership and Long-term Lease
In May 2020, the company entered a strategic partnership with CSL Limited (CSL). Through a long-term lease agreement with CSL, the company will operate a new state-of-the-art biologics manufacturing facility in Lengnau, Switzerland, when construction is completed in the second half of 2021, to perform pharma services for CSL with capacity to serve other customers as well. The company made an initial lease payment of $ 50 million in the second quarter of 2020 (included within other assets in the accompanying balance sheet) and expects to make additional fixed lease payments aggregating to $ 555 million (excluding renewals) from 2021 to 2041, with additional amounts dependent on the extent of revenues from customers of the facility other than CSL.

The company uses the Black-Scholes model to value its warrants. The company determines the fair value of its insurance contracts by obtaining the cash surrender value of the contracts from the issuer. The fair value of derivative contracts is the estimated amount that the company would receive/pay upon liquidation of the contracts, taking into account the change in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The company initially measures the fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration based on amounts expected to be transferred (probability-weighted) discounted to present value. Changes to the fair value of contingent consideration are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense. The following table provides a rollforward of the fair value, as determined by level 3 inputs (such as likelihood of achieving production or revenue

Gains and losses recognized on currency exchange contracts and the interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges are included in the accompanying statement of income together with the corresponding, offsetting losses and gains on the underlying hedged transactions.
The company uses foreign currency-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate swaps to partially hedge its net investments in foreign operations against adverse movements in exchange rates. The majority of the company’s euro-denominated senior notes and its cross-currency interest rate swaps have been designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of part of the net investment in a foreign operation. Accordingly, foreign currency transaction gains or losses due to spot rate fluctuations on the euro-denominated debt instruments and contract fair value changes on the cross-currency interest rate swaps, excluding interest accruals, are included in currency translation adjustment within other comprehensive items and shareholders’ equity.

Note 12.    Restructuring and Other Costs
In the first six months of 2021 the company recorded restructuring and other costs primarily associated with charges for impairment of acquired technology and third-party transaction/integration costs related to recent acquisitions, partially offset by credits for changes in estimates of contingent acquisition consideration. In the first six months of 2021, severance actions associated with facility consolidations and cost reduction measures affected less than 0.5 % of the company’s workforce.
As of August 6, 2021, the company has identified restructuring actions that will result in additional charges of approximately $ 45 million, primarily in 2021, and expects to identify additional actions during 2021 which will be recorded when specified criteria are met, such as communication of benefit arrangements or when the costs have been incurred.

The segment recorded $ 47 million of credits to selling, general, and administrative expense, principally credits for changes in estimates of contingent acquisition consideration, partially offset by third-party transaction costs related to recent acquisitions.

Overview
The company develops, manufactures and sells a broad range of products that are sold worldwide. The company expands the product lines and services it offers by developing and commercializing its own technologies and by making strategic acquisitions of complementary businesses. The company’s operations fall into four segments (Note 4): Life Sciences Solutions, Analytical Instruments, Specialty Diagnostics and Laboratory Products and Services.
The company mobilized in early 2020 to support the COVID-19 pandemic response with products and services that help analyze, diagnose and protect from the virus. However, the company saw a significant reduction in customer activity in several businesses by late March 2020 that materially adversely affected primarily the 2020 results of the Analytical Instruments segment and, to a lesser extent, some businesses within the company’s other three segments. The negative impact has significantly lessened so far in 2021, but could worsen later in the year dependent on the success of global efforts to control the pandemic and economic activity ramping up. The company believes the impacted businesses’ long-term prospects remain excellent given the company’s attractive markets served, its industry-leading position and proven growth strategy. Several of the company’s businesses have had a significant increase in revenues due to sales of products and services addressing diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19, including test kits and, to a lesser extent, products and services for therapy and vaccine development and manufacturing. While these positive impacts are expected to continue through 2021, the duration and extent of future revenues from such sales are uncertain and dependent primarily on customer testing as well as therapy and vaccine demand.
Sales in the second quarter of 2021 were $9.27 billion, an increase of $2.36 billion from the second quarter of 2020. Excluding the effects of currency translation and acquisitions, revenues increased $1.92 billion (28%).
In the second quarter of 2021, total company operating income and operating income margin were $2.16 billion and 23.3%, respectively, compared with $1.39 billion and 20.1%, respectively, in 2020.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview (continued)
Net income increased to $1.83 billion in the second quarter of 2021 from $1.16 billion in the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to an increase in operating income, offset in part by an increase in the income tax provision.
During the first six months of 2021, the company’s cash flow from operations totaled $4.21 billion compared with $2.24 billion for 2020.
On January 15, 2021, the company acquired, within the Laboratory Products and Services segment, the Belgium-based European viral vector manufacturing business of Groupe Novasep SAS for approximately $834 million in net cash consideration. The European viral vector manufacturing business provides manufacturing services for vaccines and therapies to biotechnology companies and large biopharma customers. The acquisition expands the segment’s capabilities for cell and gene vaccines and therapies.
On February 25, 2021, the company acquired, within the Life Sciences Solutions segment, Mesa Biotech, Inc., a U.S.-based molecular diagnostic company, for approximately $406 million in net cash consideration and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $65 million due upon the completion of certain milestones. Mesa Biotech has developed and commercialized a PCR based rapid point-of-care testing platform available for detecting infectious diseases including COVID-19. The acquisition enables the company to accelerate the availability of reliable and accurate advanced molecular diagnostics at the point of care.
On April 15, 2021, the company entered into a definitive agreement under which it will acquire PPD, Inc. for $47.50 per share for a total cash purchase price of $17.4 billion plus the assumption of approximately $3.5 billion of net debt. PPD provides a broad range of clinical research and specialized laboratory services to enable customers to accelerate innovation and increase drug development productivity. In 2020, PPD generated revenue of $4.7 billion. Upon close of the transaction, PPD will become part of the Laboratory Products and Services Segment. Shareholders holding in aggregate approximately 60% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of PPD on April 15, 2021, have approved the transaction by written consent. No further action by other PPD shareholders is required to approve the transaction. The transaction is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals. On July 16, 2021, the company and PPD each received a request for additional information and documentary materials from the FTC, in connection with the FTC’s review of the proposed merger. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed under the HSR Act until the 30th day after substantial compliance by the company and PPD with the Second Request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Subject to the satisfaction of the required closing conditions, we continue to expect the merger to be completed by the end of 2021. The company intends to finance the purchase price with cash on hand and the net proceeds from issuance of debt. The company is currently evaluating future debt financings and the timing of such transactions is subject to market and other conditions. The company also has available, but it does not currently expect to utilize, up to $6.5 billion of committed bridge financing.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2020, describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements. There have been no significant changes in the company's critical accounting policies during the first six months of 2021.

Sales in the second quarter of 2021 increased $2.36 billion from the second quarter of 2020. Aside from the effects of currency translation and acquisitions, revenues increased $1.92 billion (28%) primarily due to increased demand. Sales of products that address COVID-19 testing and treatment increased $0.58 billion to $1.87 billion in the second quarter of 2021. Conditions were very robust in each of the company’s end markets during the second quarter of 2021 driven by three factors: strong fundamentals in the life sciences, strong economic activity globally and the role the industry is playing in the pandemic response. Sales were particularly strong to academic and government, as well as industrial and applied customers, which were most affected in the second quarter of 2020 due to business disruptions related to the pandemic. Sales to customers in pharma and biotech markets were very strong driven by underlying market dynamics and the company’s role in supporting customers across a wide range of therapeutic areas. Sales to customers in diagnostics and healthcare markets were strong as customer demand for non-COVID-19 response products and services was approaching pre-pandemic levels. Sales growth was strong in each of the company’s primary geographic areas during the second quarter of 2021.
In the second quarter of 2021, total company operating income and operating income margin were $2.16 billion and 23.3%, respectively, compared with $1.39 billion and 20.1%, respectively, in 2020. The increase in operating income was primarily due to profit on higher sales and, to a lesser extent, favorable foreign currency exchange and sales mix, offset in part by strategic growth investments in 2021 to support the company’s near and long-term growth. The company’s references to strategic growth investments generally refer to targeted spending for enhancing commercial capabilities, including expansion of geographic sales reach and e-commerce platforms, marketing initiatives, expanded service and operational infrastructure, research and development projects and other expenditures to enhance the customer experience, as well as incentive compensation and recognition for employees. The company’s references throughout this discussion to productivity improvements generally refer to improved cost efficiencies from its Practical Process Improvement (PPI) business system including reduced costs resulting from implementing continuous improvement methodologies, global sourcing initiatives, a lower cost structure following restructuring actions, including headcount reductions and consolidation of facilities, and low cost region manufacturing. Productivity improvements are calculated net of inflationary cost increases.
In the second quarter of 2021, the company recorded restructuring and other costs of $77 million. In the second quarter of 2020, the company recorded restructuring and other costs of $56 million. See Note 12 for restructuring charges expected in future periods.
Segment Results
Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2020, describes the company’s measurement of segment income. There have been no significant changes in measurement methods used to determine segment income.

Provision for Income Taxes
The company's effective tax rate was 10.7% for the second quarter of 2021. During the quarter, the company recorded a $162 million income tax benefit on an intra-entity transfer of assets. The company expects its effective tax rate for all of 2021 will be between 11% and 13% based on currently forecasted rates of profitability in the countries in which the company conducts business and expected generation of foreign tax credits. Due primarily to the non-deductibility of intangible asset amortization for tax purposes, the company’s cash payments for income taxes are higher than its income tax expense for financial reporting purposes and are expected to total approximately $1.7 billion in 2021. In the second quarter of 2020, the company’s effective tax rate was 7.8%. In 2020, the company implemented foreign tax credit planning in Sweden which resulted in $96 million of foreign tax credits, with no related incremental U.S. income tax expense.
The company has operations and a taxable presence in approximately 50 countries outside the U.S. Some of these countries have lower tax rates than the U.S. The company’s ability to obtain a benefit from lower tax rates outside the U.S. is dependent on its relative levels of income in countries outside the U.S. and on the statutory tax rates in those countries. Based on the dispersion of the company’s non-U.S. income tax provision among many countries, the company believes that a change in the statutory tax rate in any individual country is not likely to materially affect the company’s income tax provision or net income, aside from any resulting one-time adjustment to the company’s deferred tax balances to reflect a new rate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
A description of recently issued accounting standards is included under the heading “ Recent Accounting Pronouncements ” in Note 1.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Consolidated working capital (current assets less current liabilities) was $12.34 billion at July 3, 2021, compared with $11.65 billion at December 31, 2020. Included in working capital were cash and cash equivalents of $7.02 billion at July 3, 2021 and $10.33 billion at December 31, 2020.
First Six Months of 2021
Cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of 2021 was $4.21 billion. Cash provided by income was offset in part by investments in working capital. A decrease in accounts receivable provided $249 million of cash. An increase in inventories used cash of $621 million, primarily to support growth in sales. Changes in other assets and other liabilities used cash of $1.06 billion primarily due to the timing of payments for compensation and income taxes. Cash payments for income taxes increased to $1.27 billion during the first six months of 2021, compared with $320 million in the first six months of 2020.
During the first six months of 2021, the company’s investing activities used $2.62 billion of cash. Acquisitions used cash of $1.43 billion. The company's investing activities also included the purchase of $1.17 billion of property, plant and equipment for capacity and capability investments.
The company’s financing activities used $4.93 billion of cash during the first six months of 2021. Repayment of senior notes used cash of $2.81 billion. The company’s financing activities also included the repurchase of $2.00 billion of the company's common stock and the payment of $190 million in cash dividends. On November 5, 2020, the Board of Directors replaced the existing authorization to repurchase the company’s common stock with a new authorization to repurchase up to $2.50 billion of the company’s common stock. At August 6, 2021, authorization remained for $500 million of future repurchases of the company’s common stock.
The company's commitments for purchases of property, plant and equipment, contractual obligations and other commercial commitments did not change materially between December 31, 2020 and July 3, 2021 except for the agreement to acquire PPD, discussed in Note 2. The company expects that for all of 2021, expenditures for property, plant and equipment, net of disposals, will be between $2.5 and $2.7 billion.
As of July 3, 2021, the company’s short-term debt totaled $4 million. The company has a revolving credit facility with a bank group that provides up to $3.00 billion of unsecured multi-currency revolving credit (Note 7). If the company borrows under this facility, it intends to leave undrawn an amount equivalent to outstanding commercial paper to provide a source of funds in the event that commercial paper markets are not available. As of July 3, 2021, no borrowings were outstanding under the company’s revolving credit facility, although available capacity was reduced by approximately $4 million as a result of outstanding letters of credit.
Approximately half of the company’s cash balances and cash flows from operations are from outside the U.S. The company uses its non-U.S. cash for needs outside of the U.S. including acquisitions and repayment of acquisition-related intercompany debt to the U.S. In addition, the company also transfers cash to the U.S. using non-taxable returns of capital as well as dividends where the related U.S. dividend received deduction or foreign tax credit equals any tax cost arising from the dividends. As a result of using such means of transferring cash to the U.S., the company does not expect any material adverse liquidity effects from its significant non-U.S. cash balances for the foreseeable future.

THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources (continued)
The company believes that its existing cash and cash equivalents and its future cash flow from operations together with available borrowing capacity under its revolving credit agreement and bridge loan agreement will be sufficient to meet the cash requirements of its existing businesses for the foreseeable future, including at least the next 24 months and to fund the pending PPD acquisition.
First Six Months of 2020
Cash provided by operating activities was $2.24 billion during the first six months of 2020. Cash provided by income was offset in part by investments in working capital. Increases in accounts receivable and inventories used cash of $195 million and $309 million, respectively, primarily to support growth in sales. Changes in other assets and other liabilities provided cash of $303 million primarily due to the timing of payments for compensation and income taxes. Cash payments for income taxes totaled $320 million.
During the first six months of 2020, the company’s investing activities used $519 million of cash, principally for the purchase of property, plant and equipment.
The company’s financing activities provided $1.80 billion of cash during the first six months of 2020. Issuance of senior notes provided cash of $3.46 billion. The company’s financing activities also included the repurchase of $1.50 billion of the company’s common stock and the payment of $163 million in cash dividends.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The company's exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates has not changed materially from its exposure discussed in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The company’s management, with the participation of the company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, the company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the fiscal quarter ended July 3, 2021, 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
There are various lawsuits and claims against the company involving product liability, intellectual property, employment and commercial issues. See “Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements – Commitments and Contingencies .”

Item 1A.    Risk Factors
The risks that we believe are material to our investors are discussed in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 under the caption “Risk Factors,” which is on file with the SEC. Except as set forth herein, there have been no material changes during the six months ended July 3, 2021 to our previously reported Risk Factors.
Risks Relating to Our Proposed Acquisition of PPD
Regulatory approvals necessary for our acquisition of PPD may not be received, may take longer than expected or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the PPD acquisition. Before the PPD acquisition may be completed, we must obtain certain required regulatory approvals, waivers or consents. These regulators may impose conditions on the completion of the transaction. Such conditions could have the effect of delaying or preventing completion of the transaction, causing us to incur additional costs or limiting the revenues of the combined company following the transaction, any of which might have an adverse effect on the combined company following the transaction. Additionally, any delay in closing may adversely affect the business of PPD and therefore the combined company following the transaction, including an adverse effect on PPD’s ability to retain employees during the pendency of the transaction or on PPD’s relationships with its vendors, customers and other parties if such vendors, customers or other parties attempt to negotiate changes in existing business relationships, consider entering into business relationships with parties other than PPD or delay or defer decisions concerning their business with PPD during the pendency of the transaction. On July 16, 2021, we and PPD each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (collectively, the “Second Request”) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), in connection with the FTC’s review of the proposed merger. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), until the 30th day after substantial compliance by the us and PPD with the Second Request, unless the waiting period is terminated earlier by the FTC. Subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the required regulatory approvals, waivers or consents, we continue to expect the merger to be completed by the end of 2021.
Combining PPD with us may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the transaction may not be fully realized . The success of the PPD acquisition, including the realization of anticipated benefits and cost savings, will depend, in part, on our ability to successfully combine our and PPD’s businesses. The integration may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees or the disruption of each company’s ongoing businesses or that the alignment of standards, controls, procedures and policies may adversely affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, suppliers and employees or to fully achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the transaction. The loss of key employees could adversely affect our ability to successfully conduct our business in the markets in which PPD now operates, which could have an adverse effect on our financial results. Other potential difficulties of combining our and PPD’s businesses include unanticipated issues in integrating logistics, information communications and other systems.
If we experience difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the PPD acquisition may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. Integration efforts between the two companies may also divert management attention and resources. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on each of us and PPD during this transition period and for an undetermined period after completion of the PPD acquisition on the combined company.
Risks Relating to Financial Profile
We have outstanding debt, and our debt will increase as a result of additional debt we expect to incur to finance the PPD acquisition. Our existing and future indebtedness may restrict our investment opportunities or limit our activities and negatively impact our credit ratings. As of July 3, 2021, we had approximately $18.78 billion in outstanding indebtedness. In addition, we have availability to borrow under a revolving credit facility that provides for up to $3.00 billion of unsecured multi-currency revolving credit. We expect to incur additional indebtedness to fund a portion of the purchase price of the PPD acquisition. We may also obtain additional long-term debt and lines of credit to meet future financing needs, which would have the effect of increasing our total leverage.

THERMO FISHER SCIENTIFIC INC.
Risk Factors (continued)

Our leverage could have negative consequences, including increasing our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, limiting our ability to obtain additional financing and limiting our ability to acquire new products and technologies through strategic acquisitions.
Our ability to make scheduled payments, refinance our obligations or obtain additional financing will depend on our future operating performance and on economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Our business may not generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations. If we are unable to service our debt, refinance our existing debt or obtain additional financing, we may be forced to delay strategic acquisitions, capital expenditures or research and development expenditures.
Additionally, the agreements governing our debt require that we maintain certain financial ratios, and contain affirmative and negative covenants that restrict our activities by, among other limitations, limiting our ability to incur additional indebtedness, merge or consolidate with other entities, make investments, create liens, sell assets and enter into transactions with affiliates. The covenants in the Facility include a Consolidated Net Interest Coverage Ratio (Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Net Interest Expense), as such terms are defined in the Facility. Specifically, the company has agreed that, so long as any lender has any commitment under the Facility, any letter of credit is outstanding under the Facility, or any loan or other obligation is outstanding under the Facility, it will maintain a minimum Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio of 3.5:1.0 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter.
Our ability to comply with these financial restrictions and covenants is dependent on our future performance, which is subject to prevailing economic conditions and other factors, including factors that are beyond our control such as the impact of public health epidemics/pandemics like COVID-19, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Our failure to comply with any of these restrictions or covenants may result in an event of default under the applicable debt instrument, which could permit acceleration of the debt under that instrument and require us to prepay that debt before its scheduled due date. Also, an acceleration of the debt under certain of our debt instruments would trigger an event of default under other of our debt instruments.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
There was no share repurchase activity for the company's second quarter of 2021. On November 5, 2020, the Board of Directors replaced the existing authorization to repurchase the company’s common stock with a new authorization to repurchase up to $2.50 billion of the company’s common stock. At July 3, 2021, $500 million was available for future repurchases of the company’s common stock under this authorization.
