Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

Omnicare, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Omnicare” or the “Company”) have prepared the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the accounting policies described in its consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2014 Annual Report”), and the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2014 Annual Report, together with any related updates included in the Company’s subsequent periodic Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

On May 20, 2015, the Company,  CVS Pharmacy, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation and subsidiary of CVS Health Corporation (“CVS Health” and, such subsidiary, “CVS Pharmacy”), and Tree Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of CVS Pharmacy (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of CVS Pharmacy. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive $98.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. The completion of the Merger is subject to adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company's stockholders and certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The completion of the Merger is expected prior to the end of 2015.


Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Data
The interim financial data is unaudited; however, in the opinion of Omnicare management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the Omnicare consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been made. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Sourcing Agreement
Effective January 1, 2015, the Company entered into a pharmaceutical sourcing agreement with McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”).  The agreement has an initial term ending December 31, 2017 with two successive automatic one-year renewal terms unless either party provides notice of non-renewal.  Under the agreement, with limited exceptions, the Company will purchase its branded and generic pharmaceutical products from McKesson.

Notes Receivable
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, gross notes receivable were approximately $68 million and $81 million, respectively, of which approximately $45 million and $52 million, respectively, were included in “Other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the allowance for credit losses on the notes receivable was approximately $14 million and $13 million, respectively, which was included in “Other current assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Interest income on the notes receivable is recognized on an accrual basis when earned. Interest income was $1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, and $1 million and $2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.
Fair Value
Embedded in certain series of the Company’s convertible debt securities are derivative instruments - contingent interest provisions, interest reset provisions and contingent conversion parity provisions. The embedded derivatives are valued quarterly using Level 3 inputs, and at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the values of the derivatives embedded in the convertible debt securities were not material. See “Note 5 - Debt”.

Stock-based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units and stock awards totaled approximately $7 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and $5 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Separation and Other Costs
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company incurred separation-related costs and accelerated stock based compensation expense for certain employees of approximately $2.6 million and $3.2 million, respectively. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded separation related costs for certain employees of approximately $3 million and $13 million, respectively. These charges are reflected in “Other charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Acquisition and Other Costs
The Company completed three acquisitions, which were not significant to the operations of the Company, in the six months ended June 30, 2015. The Company incurred professional fees and acquisition related costs, which are included in “Other charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Additionally, the Company incurred professional fees and other costs related to outsourcing activities which are included in “Other charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Merger Related Costs
As previously disclosed, on May 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement with CVS Pharmacy and Merger Sub. In connection with the Merger Agreement and the proposed Merger, the Company incurred professional fees and other related costs in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 of approximately $5 million, which are included in “Other charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.


7



Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 differed from the expected federal statutory rate primarily due to transaction costs incurred in connection with the proposed Merger, and the impact of the non-deductible portion of accrued amounts related to the possible settlement of certain litigation.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was favorably impacted by the resolution of the Internal Revenue Service examination of the Company’s tax returns for the 2011 and 2012 tax years.  The remainder of the differences from the expected federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are a result of state and local income taxes.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) consists of the following (in thousands):
 
 
June 30,
2015
 
December 31, 2014
Unrealized loss on fair value of investments
 
$

(2,525

(1,633

$
(2,825
)

The amounts are net of applicable tax benefits, which were not material at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The reclassifications out of AOCI did not materially affect any individual line item on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Common Stock Repurchase Program
In the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of its common stock for $125 million, and approximately 2.7 million shares of its common stock for $160 million, respectively. Through June 30, 2015, the Company has repurchased approximately 29.3 million shares under its share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost of approximately $1 billion and had authority to repurchase approximately $140 million of additional shares of common stock.

As part of its share repurchase programs, in December 2014, the Company entered into two accelerated share repurchase agreements (“ASRs”) with third-party financial institutions. Under the first ASR, the Company paid $75 million and received approximately 0.8 million shares of its common stock valued at $60 million in December 2014. The $15 million balance was recorded as an equity forward contract, included in paid-in capital at December 31, 2014, and settled in January 2015 with approximately 0.2 million additional shares of common stock. Under the second ASR, the Company paid $100 million and received approximately 1.1 million shares valued at $80 million in January 2015. The $20 million equity forward contract settled in February 2015 with approximately 0.2 million additional shares of common stock.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03 “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”. The update requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of being presented as an asset. Debt disclosures will include the face amount of the debt liability and the effective interest rate. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02 “Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”The amendments in this update change the analysis that a reporting entity must conduct to determine whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities should be consolidated. The guidance responds to public concerns that current accounting for certain legal entities might require a reporting entity to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights, or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. The update is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which provides guidance for revenue recognition. The standard’s core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods

or services. This ASU also requires additional disclosures. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year delay in the effective date of ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, although early adoption would be permitted for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 3 - Discontinued Operations

In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company’s end-of-life hospice pharmacy business (“Hospice”) as well as certain retail operations (“Retail”) qualified for discontinued operations treatment. In the second quarter of 2014, the Company finalized the sale of Retail for net proceeds of approximately $6 million. In July 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of the Hospice business, and recorded an impairment loss of $40 million to reduce the carrying value of Hospice to fair value. In the third quarter of 2014, the Company finalized the sale of Hospice for net proceeds of approximately $65 million.

3.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2025
As of June 30, 2015, approximately $80 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) remained outstanding. Holders may convert their 2025 Notes, prior to December 15, 2023, on any date during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the last trading day of the previous quarter, or at any time on or after December 15, 2023 or under certain other specified circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash and shares of its common stock, if any, on a net share settlement basis, based on a daily conversion value calculated on a proportionate basis for each day of the applicable 25 trading-day cash settlement averaging period. As of June 30, 2015, the adjusted conversion rate is approximately 37.64 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2025 Notes (equivalent to an adjusted conversion price of approximately $26.56 per share), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the 2025 Notes were convertible based on the price of the Company’s common stock over the applicable measuring period and, accordingly, the 2025 Notes have been classified as current debt, net of unamortized discount, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because the terms of the 2025 Notes require the principal to be settled in cash, the Company reclassified from equity the portion of the 2025 Notes attributable to the conversion feature that had not yet been accreted to its face value.

Through July 23, 2015, holders of the 2025 Notes have presented for conversion approximately $64 million principal amount of
2025 Notes that are expected to settle in August 2015.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, through privately negotiated transactions, Omnicare repurchased approximately $52 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 2025 Notes for approximately $134 million in cash. The Company recognized an aggregate loss on the repurchases of approximately $8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, which is reflected in "Other charges" on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

4.00% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures, due 2033
As of June 30, 2015, approximately $305 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.00% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures, due 2033 (the “2033 Debentures”) was outstanding. The 2033 Debentures underlie the 4.00% Trust Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities (“Trust PIERS”) of Omnicare Capital Trust I and Omnicare Capital Trust II (the “Series A Trust PIERS” and “Series B Trust PIERS”, respectively). Each Trust PIERS represents an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the applicable trust, which assets consist solely of a corresponding amount of 2033 Debentures. The Series A Trust PIERS and the Series B Trust PIERS have substantially similar terms, except that the Series B Trust PIERS have a net share settlement feature. Holders may convert their Trust PIERS on any date during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the last trading day of the previous quarter or during the five business day period following any ten trading day period in which the average closing sale price for the applicable series of Trust PIERS was less than 105% (prior to June 15, 2028) of the average of the conversion values for such series of Trust PIERS (or less than 98% on or after June 15, 2028), or under certain other specified circumstances. As of June 30, 2015, the conversion rate is approximately 1.22 shares of common stock per $50 stated liquidation amount of Trust PIERS (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $40.82 per share), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Trust PIERS (and the underlying 2033 Debentures) were convertible based on the price of the Company’s common stock over the applicable measuring period and, accordingly, the underlying 2033 Debentures have been classified as current debt, net of unamortized discount, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Because the terms of the majority of the 2033 Debentures require the principal to be settled in cash, the Company reclassified from equity the portion attributable to the conversion feature that had not yet been accreted to its face value.

The Trust PIERS (and underlying 2033 Debentures) have attained the threshold requiring payment of contingent interest in addition to regular cash interest. The Trust PIERS have accrued and paid contingent interest (ranging from $0.07 to $0.15 per $50 stated liquidation amount of Trust PIERS) for each quarterly interest period since June 2013. 

3.25% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2035
As of June 30, 2015, approximately $186 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.25% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2035 (the “Initial 2035 Debentures”) remained outstanding. Holders of the Initial 2035 Debentures have the right, on December 15, 2015 (the “Put Date”), to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Initial 2035 Debentures at a cash repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent interest, if any). Because the Put Date occurs in 2015, the Initial 2035 Debentures have been classified as current debt, net of unamortized discount, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The approximately $241 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Company’s 3.25% Convertible Senior Exchange Debentures due 2035 (the “Exchange 2035 Debentures”) has not been classified as current debt because the put date for this series is January 15, 2021.

3.50% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2044
Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company’s 3.50% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, due 2044 (the “2044 Notes”) became convertible based on the price of the Company’s common stock over the applicable measuring period. The Company expects to classify the 2044 Notes as current debt on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015. Holders may convert their 2044 Notes prior to February 15, 2042, on any date during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the period of the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the previous quarter, or at any time on or after February 15, 2042 or under certain other specified circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay cash and shares of Omnicare common stock, if any, on a net share settlement basis, based on a daily conversion value calculated on a proportionate basis for each day of the applicable 25 trading-day cash settlement averaging period. As of June 30, 2015, the adjusted conversion rate is approximately 14.29 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2044 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $70 per share).
 
As outlined above and in the 2014 Annual Report, several series of the Company’s outstanding notes and debentures (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) are convertible into cash and/or shares of Omnicare common stock under specified circumstances, including if the closing price of the Company’s common stock is more than 130% of the conversion price for such Convertible Notes during the applicable measurement period. In general, upon conversion, the Company will pay cash for the principal amount

11



of the Convertible Notes and shares of common stock for the remainder, if any, based on a daily conversion value during the applicable cash settlement averaging period; provided that the Company will pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares. Payment occurs at the end of the applicable settlement period, which is generally 30 business days after the Company receives a holder’s notice of conversion. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $385 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes were convertible, including the 2025 Notes and the 2033 Debentures. This amount includes approximately $64 million principal amount of 2025 Notes presented for conversion through July 23, 2015 that are expected to settle in August 2015. Additionally, holders of approximately $186 million aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2035 Debentures have the right to require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures on December 15, 2015.

The aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes convertible at any given time is subject to change depending on factors such as the trading price of the Company’s common stock during the applicable measurement period. The Company cannot predict the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes that will be convertible at any given time or how many, if any, holders of such Convertible Notes will present their Convertible Notes for conversion or how many, if any, holders of the Initial 2035 Debentures will require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures or the impact of any such conversions or repurchases on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan
As of June 30, 2015, there was $385 million outstanding under the Company’s term loan. The interest rate on the term loan was 1.69% at June 30, 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility, except for approximately $13 million of standby letters of credit, substantially all of which are subject to automatic annual renewals.

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs
The Company amortized to expense approximately $1 million of deferred debt issuance costs during the three month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1 million and $2 million during the six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 includes the write-off of approximately $1 million in deferred debt issuance costs related to the Company’s repurchase of a portion of the outstanding 2025 Notes during the second quarter of 2014.

Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies

Omnicare evaluates contingencies on an ongoing basis in light of the best available information. The Company believes that it has recorded liabilities to the extent necessary if a material loss is considered probable and reasonably estimable. To the extent that the resolution of contingencies results in actual losses that differ from the Company’s recorded liabilities, future earnings will be charged or credited accordingly.

Following announcement of the Merger, two putative class action complaints styled Elow v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., Civil Action No. 11093-VCG (the “Elow Action”) and Electrical Workers Pension Trust Fund of IBEW Local Union No. 58 v. CVS Health Corp., et al., Civil Action No. 11131-VCG (the “IBEW Action”) were filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware on behalf of purported stockholders of Omnicare. The complaints name as defendants various combinations of Omnicare, the members of the Omnicare Board of Directors, CVS Health, CVS Pharmacy and Merger Sub. The complaints generally allege that the members of the Omnicare Board of Directors breached their fiduciary duties to Omnicare’s stockholders during Merger negotiations by entering into the Merger Agreement and approving the Merger, and that CVS Health, CVS Pharmacy and Merger Sub aided and abetted such breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaints further allege that, among other things, (i) the Merger consideration undervalues Omnicare, (ii) the sales process leading up to the Merger was flawed due to the conflicts of interest of members of the Omnicare Board of Directors, members of Omnicare management, and Omnicare’s financial advisors, (iii) certain provisions of the Merger Agreement inappropriately favor CVS Pharmacy and inhibit competing bids and (iv) Omnicare’s preliminary proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 26, 2015 omitted material facts, including material information regarding the process leading up to the Merger, the financial analyses of Omnicare’s financial advisors and certain prospective financial information described in the proxy statement. The complaints seek, among other things, (i) a declaration that the Merger was entered into in breach of the defendants’ fiduciary duties and is therefore unenforceable, (ii) injunctive relief enjoining the Merger unless and until Omnicare implements a process that will yield a Merger Agreement providing fair terms to Omnicare’s stockholders, (iii) rescission of the Merger Agreement to the extent already implemented and granting rescissory damages, (iv) an accounting of all damages suffered as a result of the alleged wrongdoing and (v) reimbursement of costs. On July 20, 2015, the Elow Action and the IBEW Action were consolidated for all purposes under the caption In re Omnicare, Inc. Shareholder Litigation, Consolidated Civil Action No. 11093-VCG. The defendants believe that the claims asserted against them in the complaints are without merit and intend to defend the litigation vigorously.

On November 26, 2013, a complaint entitled United States, et al., ex rel. Frank Kurnik v. Amgen, Inc., Omnicare, Inc., PharMerica Corp., and Kindred Healthcare, Inc., No. 3:11-cv-01464-JFA, was unsealed by the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. The U.S. Department of Justice notified the court that it intervened against Omnicare for the purposes of settlement. The complaint alleged violations of the False Claims Act stemming from activities in connection with agreements it had with the manufacturer of the pharmaceutical Aranesp that allegedly violated the Anti-Kickback Statute. On February 27, 2014, the Company agreed to a settlement of this matter in exchange for a payment of $4.2 million, which was accrued as of December 31, 2013 and paid in the first half of 2014. On February 28, 2014, the Court dismissed this case with prejudice.

On March 22, 2013, a qui tam complaint entitled United States et al. ex rel. Susan Ruscher v. Omnicare, Inc. et al., Civil No. 08-cv-3396, which had been filed under seal in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, was unsealed by the court. The complaint was brought by Susan Ruscher as a private party qui tam relator on behalf of the federal government and several state governments. The action alleges civil violations of the federal False Claims Act and analogous state laws based upon allegations that the Company’s practices relating to customer collections violated the Anti-Kickback Statute. The U.S. Department of Justice

15



has notified the court that it declined to intervene in this action at this time. On June 12, 2014, the court granted in part and denied in part the Company’s motion to dismiss. On April 1, 2015, the Company moved to disqualify and dismiss the case with prejudice as to the relator. On June 12, 2015, the Company and relator filed motions for summary judgment. On July 15, 2015, the court denied the motion to disqualify the relator.The trial is scheduled for October 2015. The Company believes that the allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this action.

On March 11, 2013, a qui tam complaint entitled United States et al. ex rel. Marc Silver v. Omnicare, Inc. et al. Civil No. 1:11-cv-01326, which had been filed under seal in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, was unsealed by the court. The complaint was brought by Marc Silver as a private party qui tam relator on behalf of the federal government and several state governments. The action alleged civil violations of the federal False Claims Act and analogous state laws based upon allegations that the Company provided certain customer facilities with discounts and other forms of remuneration in return for referrals of business in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute. The U.S. Department of Justice notified the court that it declined to intervene in this action. On January 24, 2014, as part of a revised agreement in principle to settle the claims alleged in the Gale complaint (as described below), the Company agreed to pay $8.24 million and no attorneys’ fees to settle all state claims in the Silver complaint and the U.S. Department of Justice agreed to have all federal claims in the Silver complaint dismissed with prejudice. The agreement in principle relating to the claims in the Gale complaint and the federal claims in the Silver complaint was executed by the federal government, the Company, relators and relators’ counsel on June 24, 2014. The agreements in principle relating to the state claims were executed by each state named in the Silver complaint except for the State of Hawaii. On September 16, 2014, the court entered an order dismissing the Company from the case with prejudice.

On October 5, 2011, a qui tam complaint, entitled United States ex rel. Donald Gale v. Omnicare, Inc., No. 1:10-cv-0127, was served on the Company. The case had been filed on January 19, 2010 under seal with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division. The complaint was unsealed by the court on June 9, 2011 after the U.S. Department of Justice notified the court that it declined to intervene in this action. The complaint was brought by Donald Gale as a private party qui tam relator on behalf of the federal government. The action alleged civil violations of the False Claims Act based on allegations that the Company provided certain customer facilities with discounts and other forms of remuneration in return for referrals of business in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute, and offered pricing terms in violation of the “most favored customer” pricing laws of various state Medicaid plans. On January 24, 2014, the Company reached an agreement in principle, without admitting liability, with the U.S. Department of Justice (which was granted leave to intervene on February 20, 2014), in which the Company agreed to pay $116 million and no attorneys’ fees to settle the claims alleged in the Gale complaint and to pay $8.24 million and no attorneys’ fees to settle all federal and state claims alleged in the Silver complaint. In addition, the Company and the relator reached an agreement in principle pursuant to which the relator paid the Company $4.24 million to settle the Company’s motion for sanctions. These agreements in principle relating to the claims in the Gale complaint and the federal claims in the Silver complaint were executed by the federal government, the Company, the relators and relators’ counsel on June 24, 2014. The agreements in principle relating to the state claims in Silver were executed by each state named in the Silver complaint except for the State of Hawaii. The Company recorded a provision equal to the net settlement amount and an estimate of legal fees in its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2013. During the third quarter of 2014, settlement payments of $116 million and $8.24 million were made related to the Gale and Silver complaints, respectively, and $4.24 million was received related to the motion for sanctions filed by the Company against relator Gale and his attorneys. On August 11, 2014, the court entered an order dismissing with prejudice all claims against the Company.

On October 29, 2010, a qui tam complaint entitled United States et al., ex rel. Banigan and Templin v. Organon USA, Inc., Omnicare, Inc. and PharMerica Corporation, Civil No. 07-12153-RWZ, that had been filed under seal with the U.S. District Court in Boston, Massachusetts, was ordered unsealed by the court. The complaint was brought by James Banigan and Richard Templin, former employees of Organon, as private party qui tam relators on behalf of the federal government and several state and local governments. The action alleges civil violations of the False Claims Act based on allegations that Organon USA, Inc. and its affiliates paid the Company and several other long-term care pharmacies rebates, post-purchase discounts and other forms of remuneration in return for purchasing pharmaceuticals from Organon and taking steps to increase the purchase of Organon’s drugs in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute. The U.S. Department of Justice declined to intervene in this action. The court denied the Company’s motion to dismiss on June 1, 2012. Discovery is ongoing in this matter. The Company believes that the allegations are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this action.

The U.S. Department of Justice, through the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Virginia, investigated whether the Company’s activities in connection with the agreements it had with the manufacturer of the pharmaceutical Depakote violated the False Claims Act or the Anti-Kickback Statute. The Company cooperated with this investigation and believes that it has complied with applicable laws and regulations with respect to this matter. In connection with this matter, on December 22, 2014, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a civil complaint-in-intervention in two qui tam complaints, entitled United States, et al., ex rel. Spetter

16



v. Abbott Laboratories, Inc., Omnicare, Inc., and PharMerica Corp., No. 1:07-cv-00006 and United States, et al., ex rel. McCoyd v. Abbott Laboratories, Omnicare, Inc., PharMerica Corp., and Miles White, No. 1:07-cv-00081, alleging civil violations of the False Claims Act in connection with the manufacturer agreements described above. On July 7, 2015, the parties filed a Joint Motion to Stay the Litigation stating that the parties have reached a proposed resolution of the monetary terms of a potential settlement agreement. Resolution of the matter is subject to various contingencies, including approval by authorized officials at the Department of Justice, negotiation of the terms of a settlement agreement, approval and releases from the National Association of Medicaid Fraud Control Units, and coordination with discussions with the United States regarding other ongoing matters. The Company has recorded a provision equal to the proposed settlement amount. While the Company believes that a final settlement will be reached, there can be no assurance that any final settlement agreement will be reached or as to the final terms of such settlement.

As part of the previously disclosed civil settlement agreement entered into by the Company with the U.S. Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts in November 2009, the Company also entered into an amended and restated corporate integrity agreement (“CIA”) with the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) with a term of five years from November 2, 2009 with certain provisions continuing for a period after the term. Pursuant to the CIA, the Company was required, among other things, to (i) create procedures designed to ensure that each existing, new or renewed arrangement with any actual or potential source of health care business or referrals to Omnicare or any actual or potential recipient of health care business or referrals from Omnicare does not violate the Anti-Kickback Statute, 42 U.S.C. (§) 1320a-7b(b) or related regulations, directives and guidance, including creating and maintaining a database of such arrangements; (ii) retain an independent review organization to review the Company’s compliance with the terms of the CIA and report to OIG regarding that compliance; and (iii) provide training for certain Company employees as to the Company’s requirements under the CIA. The requirements of the Company’s prior corporate integrity agreement obligating the Company to create and maintain procedures designed to ensure that all therapeutic interchange programs are developed and implemented by Omnicare consistent with the CIA and federal and state laws for obtaining prior authorization from the prescriber before making a therapeutic interchange of a drug and to maintain procedures for the accurate preparation and submission of claims for federal health care program beneficiaries in hospice programs, were incorporated into the amended and restated CIA without modification. The requirements of the CIA have resulted in increased costs to maintain the Company’s compliance program and greater scrutiny by federal regulatory authorities. Violations of the CIA could subject the Company to significant monetary penalties. The OIG is currently seeking information concerning the Company’s compliance programs and policies and its arrangements. The Company continues to review its contracts to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. As a result of this review, pricing under certain of its consultant pharmacist services contracts has increased and may continue to increase.

In February 2006, two substantially similar putative class action lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, and were consolidated and entitled Indiana State Dist. Council of Laborers & HOD Carriers Pension & Welfare Fund v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., No. 2:06cv26. The amended consolidated complaint was filed against Omnicare, three of its officers and two of its directors and purported to be brought on behalf of all open-market purchasers of Omnicare common stock from August 3, 2005 through July 27, 2006, as well as all purchasers who bought shares of Omnicare common stock in the Company’s public offering in December 2005. The complaint contained claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and Rule 10b-5 thereunder) and Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 and sought, among other things, compensatory damages and injunctive relief. Plaintiffs alleged that Omnicare (i) artificially inflated its earnings (and failed to file GAAP-compliant financial statements) by engaging in improper generic drug substitution, improper revenue recognition and overvaluation of receivables and inventories; (ii) failed to timely disclose its contractual dispute with UnitedHealth Group Inc.; (iii) failed to timely record certain special litigation reserves; and (iv) made other allegedly false and misleading statements about the Company’s business, prospects and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint on March 12, 2007, and on October 12, 2007, the district court dismissed the case. On November 9, 2007, plaintiffs appealed the dismissal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. On October 21, 2009, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals generally affirmed the district court’s dismissal, dismissing plaintiff’s claims for violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. However, the appellate court reversed the dismissal for the claim brought for violation of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and returned the case to the district court for further proceedings. On July 14, 2011, the district court granted plaintiffs’ motion to file a third amended complaint. This complaint asserts a claim under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 on behalf of all purchasers of Omnicare common stock in the December 2005 public offering. The new complaint alleges that the 2005 registration statement contained false and misleading statements regarding Omnicare’s policy of compliance with all applicable laws and regulations with particular emphasis on allegations of violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with three of Omnicare’s acquisitions, Omnicare’s contracts with two of its suppliers and its provision of pharmacist consultant services. On August 19, 2011, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ most recent complaint and on February 13, 2012 the district court dismissed the case and struck the case from the docket. On March 12, 2012, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. On May 23, 2013, the U.S. Court of Appeals affirmed in part and reversed and remanded in part the dismissal of the plaintiffs’ complaint. On

17



October 4, 2013, the Company filed a petition for writ of certiorari in the United States Supreme Court. On March 3, 2014, the United States Supreme Court granted the Company’s petition for writ of certiorari. Oral argument at the United States Supreme Court was held on November 3, 2014. On March 24, 2015, the United States Supreme Court vacated the decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit and remanded the case to the District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky. On May 29, 2015, the plaintiffs filed a motion to amend the third amended complaint.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, charges of approximately $58 million and $68 million, respectively, and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, charges of approximately $8 million and $15 million, respectively, were included in “Settlement, litigation and other related charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, primarily for estimated litigation and other related settlements and associated professional expenses for resolution of certain large customer disputes, certain regulatory matters with and subpoenas issued by the federal government and various states, qui tam lawsuits (including the Depakote matter discussed above and other pending qui tam matters), and costs associated with the purported class and derivative actions against the Company. In connection with Omnicare’s participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other healthcare programs, the Company is subject to various inspections, audits, inquiries and investigations by governmental/regulatory authorities responsible for enforcing the laws and regulations to which the Company is subject. Further, the Company maintains a compliance program that establishes certain routine periodic monitoring of the accuracy of the Company’s billing systems and other regulatory compliance matters and encourages the reporting of errors and inaccuracies. In connection with its compliance program, Omnicare has made, and will continue to make, disclosures to the applicable governmental agencies of amounts, if any, determined to represent overpayments from the respective programs and, where applicable, those amounts, as well as any amounts relating to certain inspections, audits, inquiries and investigations activity are included in “Settlement, litigation and other related charges” on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

The Company cannot know the ultimate outcome of the pending matters described in the preceding paragraphs, and there can be no assurance that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows or, in the case of other billing matters, that these matters will be resolved in an amount that will not exceed the amount of the pretax charges previously recorded by the Company.

As part of its ongoing operations, the Company is subject to various inspections, audits, inquiries, investigations and similar actions by third parties, as well as by governmental/regulatory authorities responsible for enforcing the laws and regulations to which the Company is subject. Further, under the federal False Claims Act, private parties have the right to bring qui tam, or “whistleblower,” suits against companies that submit false claims for payments to, or improperly retain overpayments from, the government. Some states have adopted similar state whistleblower and false claims provisions. In addition to the inquiries discussed above, the Company from time to time receives inquiries from federal and state agencies regarding compliance with various healthcare laws. The Company is also involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. At any point in time, the Company is in varying stages of discussions on these matters. The Company evaluates these matters on an ongoing basis and records accruals for such contingencies if the Company concludes that it is probable that a material loss will be incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In many situations, these matters are being contested by the Company, the outcome is not predictable and any potential loss is not estimable.

The inherently unpredictable nature of legal proceedings may be exacerbated by various factors from time to time, including: (i) the damages sought in the proceedings are unsubstantiated or indeterminate; (ii) discovery is not complete; (iii) the proceeding is in its early stages; (iv) the matters present legal uncertainties; (v) significant facts are in dispute; (vi) a large number of parties are participating in the proceedings (including where it is uncertain how liability, if any, will be shared among multiple defendants); or (vii) the proceedings present a wide range of potential outcomes. With respect to violations of the False Claims Act, treble damages and/or additional penalties per claim may apply. Consequently, unless otherwise stated, no estimate of the possible loss or range of loss in excess of the amounts accrued, if any, can be made at this time regarding the pending matters described above. Further, there can be no assurance that the ultimate resolution of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company indemnifies its directors and officers for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their responsibilities for the Company.  Additionally, in the normal course of its business, the Company enters into contracts pursuant to which the Company may make a variety of representations and warranties and indemnify the counterparty for certain losses.  The Company’s possible exposure under these arrangements cannot be reasonably estimated, as this involves the resolution of claims made, or future claims that may be made, against the Company or its directors or officers, the outcomes of which are unknown and not currently predictable.  Accordingly, the Company has not recorded any accrual related to its indemnification obligations.

Note 9 - Guarantor Subsidiaries

The Company’s 4.75% Senior Notes due 2022, 5.00% Senior Notes due 2024, 2025 Notes and 2044 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, subject to certain customary release provisions, on an unsecured, joint and several basis by substantially all of the Company’s 100% owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”).

2014 for the statements of comprehensive income (loss) and the statements of cash flows. Separate complete financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented as management believes they would not provide information that is necessary for evaluating the sufficiency of the Guarantor Subsidiaries. No consolidating/eliminating adjustments column is presented for the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows since there were no significant consolidating/eliminating adjustment amounts during the periods presented.

Note 9 - Guarantor Subsidiaries (Continued)

The Company’s Initial 2035 Debentures and Exchange 2035 Debentures are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, subject to certain customary release provisions, on an unsecured basis by Omnicare Purchasing Company, LP, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Guarantor Subsidiary”). The following condensed consolidating unaudited financial data illustrates the composition of Omnicare, Inc. (“Parent”), the Guarantor Subsidiary and the non-guarantor subsidiaries as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 for the balance sheets, as well as the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 for the statements of comprehensive income (loss) and the statements of cash flows. Separate complete financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiary are not presented as management believes they would not provide information that is necessary for evaluating the sufficiency of the Guarantor Subsidiary. The Guarantor Subsidiary does not have any material net cash flows in the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows. No consolidating/eliminating adjustments column is presented for the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows since there were no significant consolidating/eliminating adjustment amounts during the periods presented.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Omnicare, Inc. Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”). In addition, see “Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 Regarding Forward-Looking Information.” You should also refer to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto and the related MD&A, including critical accounting policies, for the year ended December 31, 2014, which appear in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K (“2014 Annual Report”).

As used in this Quarterly Report, unless otherwise specified or the context otherwise requires, the terms “Omnicare,” “Company,” “its,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Omnicare, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Executive Overview

Omnicare is a leading healthcare services company that specializes in the management of complex pharmaceutical care. We operate two primary businesses through two operating segments, Long-Term Care Group (“LTC”) and Specialty Care Group (“SCG”), each serving different customer populations but sharing a common objective: advancing health outcomes at the lowest possible cost. Through LTC, we are the nation’s largest provider of pharmaceuticals and related pharmacy and ancillary services to long-term care facilities as well as chronic care facilities and other settings. Through SCG, we provide specialty pharmacy and commercialization services for the biopharmaceutical industry. We leverage our specialized clinical capabilities and innovative technology solutions across both primary businesses as key components of the value management believes we provide to our customers across the United States.

Through LTC, we operate the largest institutional pharmacy business in the United States, based on both revenues and the number of customers served. Due to the size and scope of LTC, we believe we have unique cost advantages, especially pertaining to the sourcing of pharmaceuticals. The scale of our operations has also provided us the opportunity to make investments in proprietary automation technology to reduce our dispensing costs while improving the accuracy and consistency of our service delivery. LTC’s customers consist of skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities, independent living communities, hospitals, correctional facilities, and other healthcare service providers. In light of a customer mix that is heavily concentrated in the senior citizen market, we have a high level of insight into geriatric pharmaceutical care. As of June 30, 2015, LTC provided pharmacy services in the U.S. in 47 states and the District of Columbia. LTC dispensed approximately 26 million prescriptions in the second quarter of 2015.

SCG operates across a broad spectrum of the healthcare continuum, serving the needs of biopharmaceutical manufacturers, physicians, nurses, caregivers and patients. SCG’s services are primarily focused on the specialty pharmaceutical market and incorporate four platforms: brand support services, supply chain solutions, patient support services and specialty pharmacy. By integrating these services across SCG’s platforms, we are able to provide our manufacturer clients a customized end-to-end solution for all of their needs. Our brand support services, supply chain solutions and patient support services platforms are integrated fee-for-service platforms that focus on helping drug manufacturers market, distribute and obtain reimbursement for their products. Through our specialty pharmacy platform, we dispense specialized pharmaceuticals that are high cost, have complex reimbursement and supply chain challenges, have limited patient populations and are not available through normal retail channels. These specialized drugs deal primarily with specific categories of drugs and disease states, such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, oncology and growth hormones.
 
We believe that we have an attractive business model, with a leading position in the long-term care market, and our position in the growing specialty care market supported by strong cash flows. Moreover, we believe that our business model is appropriately aligned with the interests of our customers, payors and patients as many of the factors that benefit Omnicare, such as new low-cost generic introductions and more accurate and efficient automation technologies, also have a favorable effect on our key constituencies. As such, we believe we can play a role in lowering the country’s healthcare costs while striving for positive patient outcomes.

In the first six months of 2015, SCG continued its strong financial performance primarily as a result of strong organic growth and drug price inflation within our specialty pharmacy platform. The LTC business experienced increased financial performance year-over-year due to increased drug price inflation and the impact of our Pharmaceutical Prime Vendor Agreement with McKesson Corporation (“McKesson”), which was effective January 1, 2015. The agreement has an initial term ending December 31, 2017

28



with two successive automatic one-year renewal terms unless either party provides notice of non-renewal. Under the agreement, with limited exceptions, we will purchase our branded and generic pharmaceutical products from McKesson.

On May 20, 2015, Omnicare,  CVS Pharmacy, Inc., a Rhode Island corporation and subsidiary of CVS Health Corporation (such subsidiary, “CVS Pharmacy”), and Tree Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of CVS Pharmacy (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Omnicare (the “Merger”), with Omnicare surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of CVS Pharmacy. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of our common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be automatically canceled and converted into the right to receive $98.00 in cash, without interest and less any applicable withholding taxes. The completion of the Merger is subject to adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders and certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The completion of the Merger is expected prior to the end of 2015.

For a further description of our business activities, see “Business” in Part I, Item 1 of our 2014 Annual Report.

Regulatory Matters Update

As part of ongoing operations, Omnicare and our customers are subject to legislative and regulatory changes impacting operations and the level of reimbursement received from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. For a description of regulatory matters impacting our business, see “Business-Government Regulation” in Part I, Item 1 of our 2014 Annual Report, as well as the recent updates described below.

On April 15, 2015, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) released its proposed Medicare skilled nursing facility payment update for fiscal year 2016. CMS estimates that aggregate payments to skilled nursing facilities would increase by $500 million, or 1.4%, compared to fiscal year 2015 amounts, under the terms of the proposed rule. The fiscal year 2016 rates have not yet been finalized. On April 16, 2015, President Obama signed into law the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015, which sets the annual skilled nursing facility prospective payment system update for fiscal year 2018 at 1%. There can be no assurance that future regulations or legislation will not reduce Medicare skilled nursing facility reimbursement rates.

Additionally, on July 15, 2015, CMS published a proposed rule that would make significant revisions to the requirements that skilled nursing facilities must meet to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs, including requirements related to certain of the pharmacy services provided by Omnicare. We are reviewing the proposed rule and expect to submit comments to CMS. There can be no assurance that any changes to these rules when finalized by CMS will not adversely affect our business or the businesses of our facility customers.

Adjusted operating income and Adjusted income from continuing operations exclude certain items not considered part of our core operating results and certain non-cash charges. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures enhances investors’ understanding of how management assesses the performance of our businesses. We use non-GAAP measures for budgeting purposes, measuring actual results, allocating resources and in determining employee incentive compensation. Our method of calculating non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. See “Special Items” below for a description of the excluded items and a reconciliation of Adjusted operating income and Adjusted income from continuing operations to the most comparable GAAP financial measures.

Net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were favorably impacted by the positive impact of drug price inflation in both segments as well as strong growth in SCG. Partially offsetting these factors were reductions in reimbursement coupled with volume declines in LTC. See the discussion of sales and operating income results in more detail under “Long-Term Care Group Segment” and “Specialty Care Group Segment” below.

Our gross margin rate was 20.4% and 20.7% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to 22.0% and 22.4% in the comparable prior year periods. Gross profit was unfavorably affected by certain of the aforementioned items that, individually, served to reduce net sales, primarily the reductions in reimbursement and volume declines. Additionally, gross margin continued to be unfavorably impacted by the sales mix related to our growing specialty pharmacy business. Favorably impacting gross profit was the effect of drug price inflation, the impact of our new sourcing agreement, cost reductions and productivity improvement initiatives, as well as lower payroll and employee benefit costs.

Our consolidated selling, general and administrative (“operating”) expenses as a percentage of net sales were 9.7% and 9.9% in the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to 11.4% and 11.7% in the comparable prior year periods. Operating expenses were favorably impacted by the continued progress in lowering operating expenses through our non-drug purchasing program, lower professional fees, and lower payroll and employee benefit costs. Partially offsetting these factors was increased depreciation expense for assets related to our initiatives to improve our infrastructure and customer service.

Interest expense, net of investment income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, was lower than in the prior-year period primarily due to the refinancing activities completed in 2014.

Our effective tax rates for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 differed from the expected federal statutory rate primarily due to transaction costs incurred in connection with the proposed Merger, and the impact of the non-deductible portion of accrued amounts related to the possible settlement of certain litigation.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was favorably impacted by the resolution of the Internal Revenue Service examination of our tax returns for the 2011 and 2012 tax years.  The remainder of the differences from the expected federal statutory rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are a result of state and local income taxes.

LTC net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were unfavorably affected by reductions in reimbursement coupled with competitive pricing issues related to our facilities contracts as well as lower script volumes. These decreases were offset by increased drug price inflation. The volume decline was driven by non-service related losses as well as a shift toward more rapidly growing settings such as assisted living, which generally processes fewer scripts on a per-bed basis. While we are focused on reducing our costs to mitigate the impact of drug pricing and reimbursement issues, we cannot assure you that such issues or other pricing and reimbursement pressures will not adversely impact LTC’s net sales.

Operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was unfavorably affected by certain of the aforementioned items that, individually, served to reduce net sales, primarily the reductions in reimbursement and pricing as well as the year-over-year impact of certain other “special items” described under “Special Items” below. Operating income was favorably impacted by drug price inflation, lower drug costs due to our new sourcing agreement, cost reduction and productivity improvement initiatives, as well as lower payroll and employee benefit costs.

SCG net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 were positively impacted primarily by organic growth and drug price inflation in our specialty pharmacy business. Favorable drug utilization was driven primarily by growth in our multiple sclerosis and oncology therapies. We also saw year-over-year growth in our fee-for-service platforms.

SCG operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was favorably affected primarily by the same factors that impacted net sales. Partially offsetting these positive factors was the unfavorable impact of sales mix within the SCG segment toward business with lower margins, reimbursement pressures, and investments in facilities and personnel in order to position the segment for future growth.


Special Items

We believe that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures, which exclude items not considered part of our core operating results and certain non-cash charges (“Special Items”), enhances investors’ understanding of how we assess the performance of our businesses. We use non-GAAP measures for budgeting purposes, measuring actual operating results, allocating resources and in determining employee incentive compensation. Our method of calculating non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. Financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 include the Special Items presented in the table below, which also contains a reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (in thousands).

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

31




Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2015 were $315 million compared with $154 million at December 31, 2014.

We generated net cash flows from operating activities from continuing operations of $430 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared with $390 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Compared to the same prior year period, operating cash flow was favorably impacted by approximately 7% growth in net sales. Additionally, operating cash flow was favorably impacted by the receipt of our remaining outstanding deposit with our drug wholesaler of approximately $72 million and the year-over-year change in timing of accounts payable payments driven by changes in payment terms related to our new sourcing agreement. Further favorably impacting operating cash flow was the excess of tax deductible interest expense over book interest expense related to certain of our convertible debentures and notes, which resulted in a net increase of $16 million in our deferred tax liabilities during each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 ($215 million cumulative as of June 30, 2015). The recorded deferred tax liability could, under certain circumstances, be realized in the future upon conversion or redemption of the debt, which would reduce operating cash flow.
 
Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was $82 million and $41 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 included outlays of $55 million for amounts payable relating to acquisitions. We made no acquisitions in the six months ended June 30, 2014. The 2015 acquisition-related payments were funded primarily by operating cash flows. Additionally, our capital expenditures were $28 million for the first six months of 2015 compared to $48 million in the same prior year period.  The decrease in capital expenditures in 2015 relates primarily to reduced spending related to our information technology systems. The 2014 period also includes approximately $7 million that we received for the divestiture of certain assets.

Net cash used in financing activities was $187 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to $391 million for the prior year period. In the fourth quarter of 2013, holders presented for conversion approximately $37 million of the Series B PIERS and approximately $1 million of the Series A PIERS (and the underlying 4.00% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures due 2033 (the “2033 Debentures”)). The conversions settled in the first quarter of 2014, which increased our payments on long-term borrowings and obligations for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2014, through privately negotiated transactions, we repurchased approximately $52 million in aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 3.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes") for approximately $134 million in cash. We recognized an aggregate loss on the repurchases of approximately $8 million, including a reduction of debt issuance costs of approximately $1 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, which were reflected in "Other charges" and "Interest Expense" on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income, respectively.

In the six months ended June 30, 2015, we repurchased approximately 1.8 million shares of our common stock for $125 million. In the six months ended June 30, 2014, we repurchased approximately 2.7 million shares of our common stock for $160 million. Through June 30, 2015, we have repurchased approximately 29 million shares under our share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost of approximately $1 billion and had authority to repurchase approximately $140 million of additional shares of common stock. See “Common Stock Repurchase Program” in “Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

On May 21, 2015, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.22 per share, or $0.88 per share on an annualized basis for 2015, which is 7.3% higher than the $0.82 per share of dividends paid during 2014. Aggregate dividends of $42 million paid during the six months ended June 30, 2015 were greater than those paid in the comparable prior year period by approximately $3 million.

At June 30, 2015, we had $385 million of borrowings outstanding on our term loan and no outstanding balance under our revolving credit facility except for approximately $13 million of standby letters of credit, substantially all of which are subject to automatic renewal. As a result, we had approximately $287 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility as a source of liquidity.

Several series of our outstanding notes and debentures (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) are convertible into cash and/or shares of our common stock under specified circumstances, including if the closing price of our common stock is more than 130% of the conversion price for such Convertible Notes during the applicable measurement period. In general, upon conversion, we will pay cash for the principal amount of the Convertible Notes and shares of common stock for the remainder, if any, based on a daily conversion value during the applicable cash settlement averaging period; provided that we will pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares. Payment occurs at the end of the applicable settlement period, which is generally 30 business days after we

32



receive a holder’s notice of conversion. For additional details on the conversion features of the Convertible Notes, see “Note 11- Debt” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2014 Annual Report.

The aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes convertible at any given time is subject to change depending on factors such as the price of our common stock during the applicable measurement period. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $385 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes, including our 3.75% Convertible Subordinated Notes, due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”) and our 2033 Debentures, was convertible. Additionally, holders of approximately $186 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2035 (the “Initial 2035 Debentures”) have the right to require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures on December 15, 2015 and, therefore, the Initial 2035 Debentures are classified as current debt as of June 30, 2015. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company’s 3.50% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2044 (the “2044 Notes”) became convertible based on the price of the Company’s common stock over the applicable measuring period. We expect to classify the 2044 Notes as current debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015. We cannot predict the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes that will be convertible at any given time or how many, if any, holders of such Convertible Notes will present their Convertible Notes for conversion or how many, if any, holders of the Initial 2035 Debentures will require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures or the impact of any such conversions or repurchases on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

We may, from time to time, refinance our outstanding debt securities, including the Convertible Notes, and may fund such a refinancing with cash on hand, borrowings under our revolving credit facility or the issuance of new senior or subordinated debt securities. Any such refinancing is subject to prevailing market conditions and there can be no assurance as to whether or on what terms any such refinancing will occur.
At June 30, 2015, we were not aware of any material commitments and contingencies other than the contractual obligations summarized below under “Disclosures About Aggregate Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements,” certain acquisition-related payments (including deferred payments and indemnification) potentially due in the future, separation payments, and the matters discussed in “Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We believe that net cash flows from operating activities, existing cash balances, availability under our revolving credit facility and external sources of financing that we believe are available, will be sufficient to satisfy our future working capital needs, debt servicing, conversions of the Convertible Notes, repurchases of the Initial 2035 Debentures, capital expenditures and other financing requirements for at least the next year, although no such assurances can be given in that regard. We may be unable to refinance maturing debt on terms that are as favorable as those from which we previously benefited or on terms that are acceptable to us. In addition, no assurances can be given regarding our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

(a)
As of June 30, 2015, approximately $385 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes was convertible, including the 2025 Notes and the 2033 Debentures. Additionally, holders of approximately $186 million aggregate principal amount of the Initial 2035 Debentures have the right to require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures on December 15, 2015. As a result, the 2025 Notes, 2033 Debentures, and the Initial 2035 Debentures are classified as current debt as of June 30, 2015. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the 2044 Notes became convertible based on the price of our common stock over

33



the applicable measuring period. We expect to classify the 2044 Notes as current debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015. The 2044 Notes are included in the “More than 5 Years” column in the table above. See “Note 5 - Debt” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
(b)
Represents estimated future interest costs based on the stated fixed interest rate of the debt, or the variable interest rate in effect at period end for variable interest rate debt. To the extent that any debt is repaid or refinanced prior to the stated maturity date, the estimated future interest costs would change accordingly. The estimated future interest costs presented in this table do not include any amounts potentially payable associated with the contingent interest and interest reset provisions of our Convertible Notes, as applicable, or the impact of potential changes in our credit rating, changes in variable interest rates, or any tax effects associated with our interest costs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

A description of our Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, for which there were no significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2015, is presented under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” in Part II, Item 7 of our 2014 Annual Report.

Critical Accounting Policies
Refer to “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7 of our 2014 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2015 was $222 million, compared with $202 million at December 31, 2014. The allowance for doubtful accounts represented 26.4% and 25.9% of gross accounts receivable (net of contractual allowance adjustments) as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Unforeseen future developments could lead to changes in our provision for doubtful accounts levels and future allowance for doubtful accounts percentages, which could materially impact our overall financial results, financial position or cash flows. For example, a one percentage point increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross accounts receivable as of June 30, 2015 would result in an increase to the provision for doubtful accounts and related allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $8 million.

See “Accounts Receivable” under “Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as otherwise required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.


ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our primary market risk exposure relates to variable interest rate risk through our variable interest rate debt instruments. Accordingly, we define market risk loss as the potential loss in our earnings due to higher interest rates for certain debt. The modeling technique we use to evaluate interest rate risk exposure involves performing a sensitivity analysis on our variable rate debt, assuming a change in interest rates of 100 basis points. Among our debt obligations is $385 million outstanding under our variable rate senior term loan, due 2019, at an interest rate of 1.69% at June 30, 2015 (a 100 basis point change in the interest rate would increase or decrease interest expense by approximately $4 million per year).

For information regarding the fair value of our fixed rate debt facilities, see “Note 5 - Debt” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

See further discussion of our debt in “Note 11 - Debt” and “Note 8 - Fair Value” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 included in our 2014 Annual Report.

We do not have any financial instruments held for trading purposes.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


35



We evaluated, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2015. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2015 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Exchange Act rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION:

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information relating to certain legal proceedings in which Omnicare is involved is included in “Note 7 - Commitments and Contingencies” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference. Except as set forth therein, there have been no new material legal proceedings and no material developments in the legal proceedings previously reported in our 2014 Annual Report.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risk factors below, the other information in this Quarterly Report and the risk factors discussed in “Part I, Item 1A: Risk Factors” of, and the other risks discussed in, our 2014 Annual Report. These risks, as well as risks of which we are not currently aware or that we currently consider to be immaterial, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows.

We have substantial outstanding debt, including convertible debt, and could incur additional debt in the future. Any failure to meet our debt obligations, including settlement of conversions of our convertible debt securities, would adversely affect our business and financial condition.

At June 30, 2015, our total consolidated long-term debt plus the portion of current debt representing notes and convertible debentures accounted for approximately 43.4% of our total capitalization. Although certain of the instruments governing our current indebtedness contain restrictions on our incurrence of additional debt, these restrictions are subject to qualifications and exceptions and, under certain circumstances, we could incur substantial additional indebtedness, including in connection with potential acquisitions. Additionally, these restrictions do not prevent us from incurring obligations that do not constitute debt under the governing documents.

The degree to which we are leveraged could have adverse consequences, including:

a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations will be required to service interest and principal payments on our debt and may not be available for operations, working capital, capital expenditures, expansion, acquisitions, dividends or general corporate or other purposes;
our ability to obtain additional financing in the future may be impaired;
we may be more highly leveraged than our competitors, which may place us at a competitive disadvantage;
our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and industry may be limited; and
we may be more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business, our industry or the economy in general.

Several series of our outstanding notes and debentures (collectively, the “Convertible Notes”) are convertible into cash and/or shares of our common stock under specified circumstances, including if the closing price of our common stock is more than 130% of the conversion price for such series of Convertible Notes during the applicable measurement period. In general, upon conversion, we will pay cash for the principal amount of the Convertible Notes and shares of common stock for the remainder, if any, based on a daily conversion value during the applicable cash settlement averaging period, provided that we will pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares. Payment occurs at the end of the applicable settlement period, which is generally 30 business days after we receive a holder’s notice of conversion. For additional details on the conversion features of the Convertible Notes, see “Note 11 - Debt” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2014 Annual Report.

36




The aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes convertible at any given time is subject to change depending on factors such as the price of our common stock during the applicable measurement period. As of June 30, 2015, approximately $385 million in aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes was convertible, including our 3.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2025 and our 4.00% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures due 2033. Additionally, holders of approximately $186 million aggregate principal amount of our 3.25% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2035 (the “Initial 2035 Debentures”) have the right to require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures on December 15, 2015 and, therefore, the Initial 2035 Debentures are classified as current debt as of June 30, 2015. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company’s 3.50% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due 2044 (the “2044 Notes”) became convertible based on the price of the Company’s common stock over the applicable measuring period. We expect to classify the 2044 Notes as current debt on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2015. We cannot predict the aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes that will be convertible at any given time or how many, if any, holders of such Convertible Notes will present their Convertible Notes for conversion or how many, if any, holders of the Initial 2035 Debentures will require us to repurchase their Initial 2035 Debentures or the impact of any such conversions or repurchases on our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity or cash flows.

Our ability to make payments on, repurchase or refinance our debt and to satisfy conversions of our Convertible Notes will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, business, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other factors that are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available under our credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our debt, satisfy conversions of our Convertible Notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our debt on or before maturity. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance any of our debt, including our credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

The proposed Merger may not be completed within the expected timeframe, or at all, and the failure to complete the proposed Merger could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial position and the trading price of our common stock.
As described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, on May 20, 2015, the Company, CVS Pharmacy and Merger Sub entered into the Merger Agreement providing for the Merger, with the Company to survive the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of CVS Pharmacy. Completion of the Merger is subject to adoption of the Merger Agreement by our stockholders and certain regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, the satisfaction of which are subject to risks and uncertainties. Failure to complete the Merger could adversely affect our business, results of operations and the market price of our common stock, including through the following:
if the Merger is not completed, and no other parties are willing and able to acquire the Company at a price of $98.00 per share or higher on terms acceptable to us, the trading price of our common stock will likely decline as our common stock has recently traded at prices based on the proposed Merger consideration of $98.00 per share;
we have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs, expenses and fees for professional services and other transaction costs in connection with the proposed Merger, for which we will receive little or no benefit if the Merger is not completed;
the failure to complete the Merger may result in negative publicity and a negative impression of the Company in the investment community; and
upon termination of the Merger Agreement by the Company or CVS Pharmacy under specified circumstances, we would be required to pay a termination fee of $350 million, for which we may have insufficient liquidity and may be unable to finance on acceptable terms, if at all.

The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and the trading price of our common stock.

The announcement and pendency of the proposed Merger could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The announcement and pendency of the proposed Merger could cause disruptions in and create uncertainty regarding our business, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. These risks, which could be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Merger, include the following:
the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business concerns and difficulty building and maintaining existing or new relationships with customers, suppliers, vendors, licensors, licensees and other business partners;

37



employee uncertainty about post-Merger roles with CVS Pharmacy and the difficulty of integration, which may adversely affect our ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel;
our inability to pursue alternative business opportunities, including strategic acquisitions, or make appropriate changes to our business because of certain covenants restricting our business in the Merger Agreement; and
the costs and potential adverse outcomes of litigation relating to the Merger.
