Merger Agreement with AbbVie Inc.
OnJune 25, 2019 , the Company announced that it entered into a transaction agreement (the "AbbVie Agreement") under which AbbVie Inc. ("AbbVie"), a global, research-driven biopharmaceutical company, would acquireAllergan plc in a stock and cash transaction (the "AbbVie Transaction"), valued at$188.24 per Allergan share, or approximately$63.0 billion , based on AbbVie's then-current stock price at the time the AbbVie Transaction was announced. At the closing of the proposed AbbVie Transaction, Company shareholders will receive 0.8660 shares of AbbVie common stock and$120.30 in cash for each of their existing shares. OnOctober 14, 2019 , the Company's shareholders voted to approve the AbbVie Transaction. The AbbVie Transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. OnMay 5, 2020 theU.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") accepted a proposed consent order in connection with the AbbVie Transaction. Under the terms of the consent order, the companies have agreed to divest brazikumab, an investigational IL-23 inhibitor in development for autoimmune diseases, to AstraZeneca and Zenpep, a treatment for exocrine pancreatic insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis and other conditions, toNestle Health Science . Nestle also will be acquiring Viokace, another pancreatic enzyme preparation, as part of the same transaction. OnMay 6, 2020 , theIrish High Court (the "Court") approved the AbbVie Transaction at a sanction hearing in relation to the scheme of arrangement (the "Scheme") (and to confirm the associated capital reduction) under the AbbVie Transaction. Completion of the AbbVie Transaction remains subject to the delivery to, and registration by, the Registrar of Companies inIreland of copies of (i) the order of the Court sanctioning the Scheme and confirming the associated reduction of capital; and (ii) the minute required by Section 86 of the Act in respect of the reduction of capital, each of which is expected to occur onMay 8, 2020 . Additionally, onOctober 25, 2019 , in connection with the AbbVie Transaction, AbbVie commenced offers to exchange all Allergan Senior Notes issued by Allergan and maturing fromSeptember 15, 2020 throughMarch 15, 2045 for up to approximately$19.6 billion aggregate principal amount of new notes to be issued by AbbVie and cash. In conjunction with the exchange offer, AbbVie solicited and obtained consents from eligible holders of the Allergan Senior Notes to amend each of the indentures governing the Allergan Senior Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants in such indentures and eliminate any guarantees of the related Allergan Senior Notes. Consummation of the exchange offer is conditioned upon, among other things, the closing of the AbbVie Transaction. The exchange offers are expected to close, and such amendments are expected to become operative, on or about the closing date of the AbbVie Transaction. 54
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Impact of COVID-19
In the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 , the Company's net sales were negatively impacted by an estimated 3% compared to the prior year period resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company's medical aesthetic portfolio of products has been most significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic as these products are typically administered as elective procedures. These elective procedures have been negatively affected by local and national government restrictions, such as "social distancing, "shelter in place" orders and business closures, that were put in place in the last few weeks of the first quarter inthe United States and throughout the first quarter in many international markets as well as by economic conditions. As a consequence, consumer demand has significantly declined and the ability of practitioners to administer these procedures has been restricted. While the Company anticipates the COVID-19 pandemic will have a continued negative effect on the revenues of these products in the near-term, it is difficult to determine the full extent and duration of the impact on the future operating results of the business. For example, the Company has recently observed, particularly in certainAsia Pacific international markets, early signs of some recovery of the global medical aesthetic business and anticipates that the recovery with continue to occur during the second half of 2020. The Company anticipates that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's therapeutic products will be less significant compared to the Company's medical aesthetic products. The Company's therapeutic business may, however, be impacted by changes in commercial and government rebate channels as a result of economic conditions, including increases in unemployment rates. The Company and our third-party contract manufacturing partners continue to operate our manufacturing facilities at or near normal levels. While we currently do not anticipate any interruptions in our manufacturing process, it is possible that the COVID-19 pandemic may have an impact in the future on our and/or our third-party suppliers' and contract manufacturing partners' ability to manufacture our products or to have our products reach all markets. The Company continues to operate clinical trials globally. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, certain clinical sites have temporarily suspended enrolling new patients. The Company is taking measures to mitigate any potential delays in clinical trials, but it is possible that the timing of these trials and anticipated launch dates of the related projects may be impacted. The Company has suspended face to face sales meetings and the Company's sales teams have been working remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company's sales teams continue to work with customers to provide sufficient levels of support and detailing. While the global medical aesthetics business has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and the demand for aesthetic products has declined, the Company's sales teams continues to work with customers to determine customer demand levels and to support these levels when consumer recovery occurs. Additionally, the Company will continue to assess variable sales and marketing expenses, such as direct to consumer advertising, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to monitor the collectability of receivables as a result of our customers' financial circumstances. The Company's global medical aesthetics business sells to practitioners who service consumers on a local, regional or national level. As the COVID-19 pandemic impacts their businesses, it may also impact their ability to pay their outstanding invoices. This would have a negative impact on the Company's account receivable balance, bad debt expenses recognized in general and administrative expenses, and liquidity. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 , the Company recorded incremental provisions for bad debts of approximately$30.0 million as we have assessed the impact on the COVID-19 pandemic on our US and international customer bases. The Company will continue to monitor the impact the pandemic has on the Company's ability to collect customer receivables. 55

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net Revenues
Three Months Ended
The decrease in net revenues in the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 was primarily driven by declines in sales of the Company's Medical Aesthetic products due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by increased sales of certainEye Care products. The declines in the Facial Aesthetic portfolio, Breast Implants, and Coolsculpting Consumables resulted from a reduction in elective procedures in the US during the latter part of the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 as a result of local government restrictions, including social distancing, "shelter in place orders" and business closures. Rapaflo® revenues declined primarily due to a loss of exclusivity. The increase inEye Care was driven by Restasis® and demand growth in Eye Drops during the quarter. The increase in Coolsculpting Systems was driven by the CoolTone launch. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company anticipates a significant decline in the Medical Aesthetics net revenues in the second quarter of 2020. The overall full year reduction in these revenues will be determined by the duration of government restrictions, future economic conditions, and any potential future changes in consumer behavior related to medical aesthetics products, all of which are largely uncertain at this time.

Net Revenues
Three Months Ended
The increase in net revenues in the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 was primarily due to growth in CNS offset, in part, by a decline inGI and Women's Health revenues. CNS revenues increased primarily due to strong demand growth for Vraylar® and Viibryd® and the launch of Ubrelvy® during the first quarter of 2020.Women's Health revenues decreased primarily due to a decrease in the average net selling price for Lo Loestrin® and the impact of products losing exclusivity.

Net Revenues
Three Months Ended
The decrease in net revenues in the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 was primarily driven by lower sales of the Company's Medical Aesthetic products due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic particularly in theAsia Pacific region where the impact occurred earlier in the quarter than other regions The declines in the Facial Aesthetic portfolio were due to decreased demand as a result of national and local government requirements around social distancing, "shelter in place" orders and business closures. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company anticipates a significant decline in the Medical Aesthetics net revenues to continue in the second quarter of 2020. The overall full year reduction in revenues will be determined by the duration of government restrictions, future economic conditions, and any potential future changes in consumer behavior related to medical aesthetics products, all of which are largely uncertain at this time.

Three Months Ended
The Company's effective tax rate for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 was a benefit of 125.5%, compared to a benefit of 2.8% for the three months endedMarch 31, 2019 . The effective tax rate for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 was favorably impacted by a tax benefit of$1.9 billion related to the decrease of certain deferred tax liabilities. The decrease resulted from the intra-entity transfer of intellectual property between entities under common control. As a result of this transfer, a deferred tax asset of$1.2 billion was recognized for the difference between the tax basis in the buyer's jurisdiction and the net book value of the intellectual property as reported in the consolidated financial statements. However, based on the Company's evaluation of the realizability of this deferred tax asset, the Company determined that it is not more-likely-than-not that the$1.2 billion deferred tax asset will be realizable as ofMarch 31, 2020 and therefore this amount was offset by a full valuation allowance. The effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by the goodwill impairment charge of$913.0 million , for which no tax benefit was recorded. The effective tax rate for the three months endedMarch 31, 2019 was favorably impacted by a tax benefit of$91.5 million related to excess tax over book basis in aU.S. subsidiary that will reverse in the foreseeable future. The effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by a goodwill impairment charge of$2,467.0 million , for which no tax benefit was recorded. 66 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effective tax rate for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 as compared to the three months endedMarch 31, 2019 was primarily impacted by a tax benefit recorded in the first quarter of 2020 for the decrease of certain deferred tax liabilities.

The current balance of cash and marketable securities on hand as ofMarch 31, 2020 was$2,618.3 million . While the ultimate duration and recovery period of the COVID-19 pandemic presents inherent challenges to predict with certainty the overall impact on the Company's liquidity needs, management expects that available cash balances and the remaining 2020 cash flows from operating activities will provide sufficient resources to fund our operating liquidity needs and expected capital expenditure funding requirements for at least the next twelve months. The Company also has the ability to borrow under its existing$1.5 billion revolving credit facility, which should provide sufficient additional resources to meet any further current liquidity needs. As ofMarch 31, 2020 , the Company does not anticipate utilizing the facility to fund liquidity needs. 67 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investing cash flows for the three months endedMarch 31, 2020 reflect the net cash from investments of$1,800.0 million .
