Impact of COVID-19 and the General Economic Environment
The unprecedented nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on the global economy began to significantly disrupt our business in fiscal year 2020 by initially reducing demand for our products followed by strong recovery in demand but increasing variability in supply of raw materials and manufacturing productivity. During fiscal year 2021, demand for many of our products recovered to pre-pandemic levels and business has continued to grow during fiscal year 2022. We believe that demand for our products has increased due to increased investments in healthcare and diagnostics coupled with end-users (such as hospitals) making capital purchases that were previously deferred due to the uncertainty surrounding COVID-19. While we are encouraged by the recovery, we remain cautious as many factors remain unpredictable. We continue to experience logistics, supply chain, and manufacturing challenges that we expect will continue throughout calendar year 2022. The supply chain challenges related to certain components have become more pronounced, and shortages in raw materials have become more widespread, since the beginning of this calendar year. We continue to experience shortages of certain materials and have used more of our inventory on hand of those materials than we have used historically. In addition, we are purchasing more materials that are critical to our processes, often at higher costs. Shortages of materials, particularly micro-controller chips and associated electronic components, have caused and may continue to cause, delays in manufacturing products for our customers. In some cases, raw material shortages and delivery delays from our suppliers are communicated to us with very little advanced warning, which has caused operational and customer order fulfillment challenges. During fiscal year 2021, inventory levels declined and in fiscal year 2022 it has continued to be difficult to replenish certain components of that inventory. While we are dedicating significant resources to manage, mitigate, and resolve these issues, we currently expect supply chain challenges to continue to impact our ability to deliver products to our customers over the next several quarters. In connection with these supply chain disruptions, we have experienced inflationary increases of certain raw materials, as well as increases in logistics, transportation and labor costs. Increased freight charges and shipping delays became more common during the pandemic and subsequent periods, and are expected to continue into the foreseeable future. Due to the rising cost environment, in addition to ongoing expense management, we have raised prices on certain products. While we expect to make pricing adjustments throughout fiscal year 2022, our margins could be impacted by rising costs. During the three months endedJuly 1, 2022 , our manufacturing facilities continued to operate without significant disruption due to employee absences. While we have from time to time taken significant precautions to maintain employee safety, such as implementing mask requirements, encouraging vaccination, and periodically asking non-production related employees to work from home when possible, we have experienced and may in the future experience, COVID-19 related employee absences that make it more difficult to manufacture our products. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and ensuing supply chain challenges have and will directly or indirectly impact us, including our business, financial condition, and results of operations, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, and stockholders. For additional information on risks related to the pandemic and other supply chain risks that could impact our results, see Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors.
Operating Segments and Products
We have two reportable operating segments: Medical and Industrial. The segments align our products and service offerings with customer use in medical and industrial markets.
Medical
In our Medical segment, we design, manufacture, sell and service X-ray imaging
components, including X-ray tubes, digital detectors, high voltage connectors,
image-processing software and workstations, 3D reconstruction software,
computer-aided diagnostic software, collimators, automatic exposure control
devices, generators, heat exchangers, ionization chambers and buckys. These
components are used in a range of medical imaging applications including CT,
mammography, oncology, cardiac, surgery, dental, and other diagnostic
radiography uses.
Our X-ray imaging components are primarily sold to OEM customers. These OEM
customers then design-in our products into their X-ray imaging systems for a
variety of medical modalities. A substantial majority of medical X-ray imaging
OEMs globally are our customers, and many of these have been our customers for
over 25 years. We believe one of the reasons for customer loyalty is that our
hardware and software products are tightly integrated with our customers'
systems. We work very closely with our customers to create custom built
components for their systems based on technology platforms that we have
developed. Because our products are often customized for our customers' specific
equipment, it can be costly and complex for our customers to switch to another
provider.
29--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Table of Contents
Once our components are designed into our customers' equipment, our customers will typically continue to buy from us for any replacement components and for service and support for that equipment. Some of our products are also included in product registrations for our customers' equipment that require regulatory approval to change. In addition to sales to OEM customers, we sell our products to independent service companies and distributors as well as directly to end-users for replacement purposes. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant effect on hospitals, clinics and outpatient imaging centers as they encountered declines in elective procedures volume. As a result, they reduced the capital purchases of imaging equipment from OEMs, which led to lower demand for X-ray imaging components for us. Additionally, equipment installations were delayed, due to reduced access to healthcare institutions. Partially offsetting this was an increased demand for imaging equipment used to diagnose respiratory diseases, such as radiographic X-ray imaging systems and CT imaging systems. The Company has experienced growth in demand for its products as health systems globally have continued to address healthcare services gaps. However, the Company has not been able to convert all the demand into sales due to on-going supply chain related interruptions and uncertainties, particularly with the availability of micro-controller chips and other electronic components. As a result, uncertainty in overall sales volume is expected to continue at least for the remainder of calendar year 2022. InChina , the government is broadening the availability of healthcare services. As a result, the number of diagnostic X-ray imaging systems, including CT, has grown significantly. We are developingCT X -ray tubes and related subsystems for Chinese OEMs as they introduce new systems inChina . Over the long-term, our objective is to become the partner of choice both for OEMs and in the replacement market as CT systems become more widely adopted throughout the Chinese market. In recent years our business inChina has been impacted by the trade war withthe United States in three principal ways: (1) importing raw materials fromChina tothe United States has become more expensive, (2) importing raw materials and sub-assemblies fromthe United States toChina has become more expensive, and (3) importing finishedU.S. manufactured products intoChina has become more difficult and expensive. Recently the governments of boththe United States andChina have granted tariff exclusions which temporarily eliminate the additional duties payable for specific commodities, providing partial relief. However,U.S. exclusions possess a calendar year-end expiration and Chinese exclusions must be solicited and approved on a shipment-by-shipment basis. There is no guarantee that such exclusions will be granted or extended by either government. In order to mitigate the impact of tariffs on materials imported fromChina , we have implemented changes to secure more non-China sources of materials used to manufacture our X-ray imaging products. To help mitigate the impact of tariffs, and to be closer to our global customer base, we continue to expand manufacturing capabilities at our facilities inChina ,Germany andthe Philippines . We have also implemented local sourcing strategies to offer local content. This local-for-local strategy has been well received by both our local customers as well as global OEMs, and acts as a natural hedge against trade wars and other potential supply chain disruptions.
Industrial
In our Industrial segment, we design, develop, manufacture, sell and service X-ray imaging products for use in a number of markets, including security applications for cargo screening at ports and borders and baggage screening at airports, and nondestructive testing and inspection applications used in a number of other vertical markets. Our industrial products include Linatron® X-ray linear accelerators, X-ray tubes, digital detectors and high voltage connectors. In addition, we license proprietary image-processing and detection software designed to work with other Varex products to provide packaged sub-assembly solutions to our industrial customers. Our Industrial business benefits from the research and development investment and manufacturing economies of scale on the Medical side of our business, as we continue to find new applications for our technology. Along with more favorable pricing dynamics, this allows us to generally achieve higher gross profit for industrial products relative to our Medical business. In addition, our Industrial business benefits from our long-term service agreements for our Linatron® products. The security market primarily consists of cargo security for the screening of trucks, trains, and cargo containers at ports and borders as well as airport security for carry-on baggage, checked baggage and palletized cargo. The end customers for border protection systems are typically government agencies, many of which are in oil-based economies and war zones where there can be significant variation in buying patterns. Non-destructive testing and inspection verticals utilize X-ray imaging to scan items for inspection of manufacturing defects and product integrity in a wide range of industries including the aerospace, automotive, electronics, oil and gas, food packaging, metal castings and 3D printing industries. In addition, new applications for X-ray sources are being developed, such as sterilization of food and its packaging. We provide X-ray sources, digital detectors, high voltage connectors and image processing software to OEM customers, system integrators and manufacturers in a variety of these verticals. We believe that the non-destructive testing market represents a significant growth opportunity for our business, and we are actively pursuing new potential applications for our products. The economic downturn triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic reduced the demand for X-ray imaging equipment utilized in the non-destructive testing market as manufacturers focused on cash preservation and reduced spending for capital equipment. However, we have seen improved conditions in this market, which continued during the three months endedJuly 1, 2022 . 30

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our critical accounting policies that are affected by accounting estimates require us to use judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates and assumptions regarding matters that are inherently uncertain, and actual results could differ materially from these estimates. We periodically review our accounting policies, estimates and assumptions and make adjustments when facts and circumstances dictate. Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedOctober 1, 2021 filed with theSEC onNovember 19, 2021 and Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements of this report for further details. Our critical accounting policies that are affected by accounting estimates include valuation of inventories, assessment of recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, and income taxes. Such accounting policies require us to use judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates and assumptions regarding matters that are inherently uncertain, and actual results could differ materially from these estimates. There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies, estimates and assumptions or the judgments affecting the application of those estimates and assumptions since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year endedOctober 1, 2021 . Fiscal Year The fiscal years of the Company as reported are the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Friday nearestSeptember 30 . Fiscal year 2022 is the 52-week period endingSeptember 30, 2022 . Fiscal year 2021 was the 52-week period that ended onOctober 1, 2021 . The fiscal quarters endedJuly 1, 2022 andJuly 2, 2021 were both 13-week periods. The three fiscal quarters endedJuly 1, 2022 andJuly 2, 2021 were both 39-week periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operations, including working capital and investing activities. We believe that our operating cash flow, cash on our balance sheet and availability under our ABL Facility are sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs for at least the next 12 months and will be sufficient to allow us to continue to invest in our existing businesses, consummate strategic acquisitions and manage our capital structure on a short and long-term basis. We are currently not aware of any trends or demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way that will impact our capital needs during or beyond the next 12 months. The maximum availability under our ABL Facility is$100.0 million ; however, the borrowing base under the ABL Facility fluctuates from month-to-month depending on the amount of eligible accounts receivable, inventory, and real estate. As ofJuly 1, 2022 the amount available under our ABL Facility was$97 million , and the ABL Facility remains undrawn. See Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for a further discussion. AtJuly 1, 2022 we had total debt of$412.6 million net of discounts and deferred issuance costs of$38.0 million . 34

Contractual Obligations
InOctober 2013 , we entered into an amended agreement with dpiX and other parties that, among other things, provides us with the right to 50% of dpiX's total manufacturing capacity produced afterJanuary 1, 2014 . The amended agreement requires us to pay for 50% of the fixed costs (as defined in the amended agreement), as determined at the beginning of each calendar year. As ofJuly 1, 2022 , we estimate that we have fixed cost commitments of$6.6 million related to this amended agreement through the remainder of calendar year 2022. The amended agreement will continue unless the ownership structure of dpiX changes (as defined in the amended agreement). InOctober 2015 , pursuant to a Domination and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement (the "MeVis Agreement"), we committed to pay the noncontrolling shareholders of MeVis an annual recurring net compensation of €0.95 per MeVis share. The annual net payment will continue for the life of the MeVis Agreement, which we anticipate will continue for as long as we remain as the controlling shareholder of MeVis. As ofJuly 1, 2022 , noncontrolling shareholders together held approximately 0.5 million shares of MeVis, representing 26.3% of the outstanding shares. During the third quarter of fiscal year 2020, we entered into a purchase agreement with a supplier to acquire certain equipment and intellectual property from the supplier that is utilized to manufacture X-ray cables utilized in our products. As ofJuly 1, 2022 , there has been no transfer of control of the underlying equipment. This acquisition is expected to be completed during the 2022 fiscal year and the total consideration to be paid by us for the acquired assets is expected to be ¥1,084.7 million or approximately$8.0 million , subject to potential decreases for costs incurred by the Company. OnApril 14, 2022 , we entered into a foreign currency hedge related to this Japanese Yen payment, which is expected to fix the purchase price of these assets at approximately$7.9 million . Contingencies From time to time, the we are a party to or otherwise involved in legal proceedings, government inspections, investigations, customs and duty audits, and other claims and contingency matters, both inside and outsidethe United States , arising in the ordinary course of its business or otherwise. We accrue amounts for probable losses, to the extent they can be reasonably estimated, that we believe are adequate to address any liabilities related to legal proceedings and other loss contingencies that we believe will result in a probable loss (including, among other things, probable settlement value). A loss or a range of loss is disclosed when it is reasonably possible that a material loss will be incurred and can be estimated or when it is reasonably possible that the amount of a loss, when material, will exceed the recorded provision. We did not have any material contingent liabilities as ofJuly 1, 2022 andOctober 1, 2021 . Legal expenses are expensed as incurred.

Backlog is the accumulation of all orders for which revenues have not been recognized and are still considered valid. Backlog also includes a small portion of billed service contracts that are included in deferred revenue. Our estimated total backlog atJuly 1, 2022 was approximately$456 million . Orders may be revised or canceled, either according to their terms or as customers' needs change. In addition, our ability to convert backlog into revenue may be impacted by on-going supply chain related interruptions and uncertainties. Consequently, it is difficult to predict with certainty the amount of backlog that will result in revenues. We perform a quarterly review to verify that outstanding orders in the backlog remain valid. Aged orders that are not expected to be converted to revenues are deemed dormant and are reflected as a reduction in the backlog amounts in the period identified. In addition to orders for which revenues have not been recognized and are still considered valid, we have pricing agreements with many of our established customers that span multi-year periods. These pricing agreements include volume ranges under which orders are placed. 36
