Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As previously disclosed, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc., a British Columbia corporation (the “Company” or “Valeant”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 20, 2015 (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), with Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Valeant (“VPI”), Sun Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of VPI (“Purchaser”) and Salix Pharmaceuticals, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (“Salix”). In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) for all of Salix’s outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), at a purchase price of $173.00 per Share, net to the holder in cash (the “Offer Price”), without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes and subject to reduction in the event the conditions to the Offer were not satisfied by 12:00 midnight, Eastern time, April 8, 2015.

The Offer expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern time, on April 1, 2015 (one minute after 11:59 p.m., Eastern time on March 31, 2015) as scheduled and was not extended. According to Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the depositary for the Offer, 48,385,169 Shares were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, which represented approximately 75.25% of the outstanding Shares and a sufficient number of Shares such that the minimum tender condition to the Offer was satisfied. In addition, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery were delivered with respect to 8,087,609 additional Shares, representing approximately 12.58% of the outstanding Shares. As a result, Purchaser accepted for payment all Shares that were validly tendered and not withdrawn.

Also, on April 1, 2015, Purchaser merged with and into Salix, with Salix surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). The Merger was governed by Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with no stockholder vote required to consummate the Merger. At the effective time of the Merger, each Share then outstanding was converted into the right to receive $173.00 in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, except for Shares then owned by Valeant, VPI or Purchaser or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries and Shares held in treasury of Salix or by any of its wholly owned subsidiaries, which Shares were cancelled and retired and ceased to exist, and no consideration will be delivered in exchange therefor.

Each unexpired and unexercised option to purchase Shares (the “Salix Options”), whether or not then exercisable or vested, was cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of any such cancelled Salix Option is entitled to receive, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes required by applicable law to be withheld) of an amount equal to the product of (i) the total number of Shares previously subject to such Salix Option and (ii) the excess, if any, of $173.00 over the exercise price per Share previously subject to such Salix Option. Each unvested Share subject to forfeiture restrictions, repurchase rights or other restrictions (the “Salix Restricted Stock”) automatically became fully vested and was cancelled and, in exchange therefor, each former holder of such cancelled Salix Restricted Stock is entitled to receive, a payment in cash (subject to any applicable withholding or other taxes required by applicable law to be withheld) equal to $173.00 per share of Salix Restricted Stock.

The aggregate consideration paid by Purchaser in the Offer and Merger was approximately $11.3 billion, without giving effect to related transaction fees and expenses. The Company provided Purchaser with the necessary funds to fund the Offer and the Merger through a combination of: (i) the proceeds of a registered offering of Valeant’s common shares in the United States that closed on March 27, 2015; (ii) the proceeds from an issuance of senior unsecured notes by a subsidiary of Valeant pursuant to a Rule 144A (without registration rights) that closed on March 27, 2015; and (iii) the $2,350,000,000 in proceeds from certain incremental term loan borrowings under a new series tranche B term loan (the “Closing Date Term Loans” and, together with an additional $1,800,000,000 of incremental term loan commitments under a new series tranche B term loan and $1,000,000,000 of incremental term loans commitments under a new series tranche A term loan, collectively, the “Incremental Term Loans”) under Valeant’s existing credit agreement, dated as of February 13, 2012 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Valeant, certain subsidiaries of Valeant, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto from time to time, Barclays Bank PLC (as successor to Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC), as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and the other agents party thereto, each on the terms previously disclosed in the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by the Company and Purchaser with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 4, 2015, as amended.

The foregoing summary of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 23, 2015 as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on March 16, 2015, both of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

Assumption of Obligations under Notes Indenture

As previously disclosed, on March 27, 2015, Valeant announced that VRX Escrow Corp., a newly formed wholly owned Canadian subsidiary of Valeant (the “Escrow Issuer”), completed its previously announced offering of $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.375% senior unsecured notes due 2020 (the “2020 notes”), $3.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2023 (the “2023 notes”), €1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior unsecured notes due 2023 (the “Euro notes”) and $3.25 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (together with the 2020 notes, the 2023 notes and the Euro notes, the “notes”). The gross proceeds of the issuance of the notes were placed into escrow pending consummation of the Offer and the Merger. In connection with the consummation of the Offer and the Merger, the gross proceeds of the issuance of the notes were released from escrow and the obligations of the Escrow Issuer under the indenture governing the notes were assumed by Valeant.

Incremental Term Loans

Part of the Offer and Merger consideration, the satisfaction and discharge of Salix’s 6.00% Senior Notes due 2021 and the repayment of Salix’s Credit Agreement, dated as of January 2, 2014, among Salix, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, was funded by a portion of the Incremental Term Loans under the Credit Agreement. The remaining undrawn portion of the Incremental Term Loans will be borrowed on a delayed draw basis and will be used to finance amounts due in respect of Salix’s 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015 and 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019.

VALEANT PHARMACEUTICALS INTERNATIONAL, INC. COMPLETES

Laval, Quebec — April 1, 2015 — Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (NYSE: VRX and TSX: VRX) (“Valeant”) today announced the expiration of the tender offer (the “Offer”) by a subsidiary of Valeant Pharmaceuticals International (“VPI”) to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Salix Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. (NASDAQ: SLXP) (“Salix”) for a price of $173.00 per share in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes. The Offer expired at midnight, Eastern time, on April 1, 2015. Valeant expects to complete today the acquisition of Salix through a merger without a vote of the Salix stockholders pursuant to Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the depositary for the tender offer, has advised that, as of the expiration of the Offer, a total of 48,385,169 shares had been tendered into and not validly withdrawn from the Offer, representing approximately 75.25% of Salix’s outstanding shares and a sufficient number of shares such that the minimum tender condition to the Offer was satisfied. Additionally, the depositary has advised that an additional 8,087,609 shares had been tendered by notice of guaranteed delivery, representing approximately 12.58% of Salix’s outstanding shares. Accordingly, all shares that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn were accepted for payment and Valeant will promptly pay for all such tendered shares in accordance with the terms of the Offer.

As a result of the merger, Salix will become a wholly owned subsidiary of VPI. In the merger, each share of Salix (other than those shares held by Valeant or Salix or any of their respective subsidiaries) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive the same $173.00 per share in cash, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes, that was paid in the Offer. Following completion of the merger, the common stock of Salix will no longer be listed for trading on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, which is expected to take effect later today.

Exhibit 99.4

VALEANT PHARMACEUTICALS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SALIX PHARMACEUTICALS, LTD

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 has been prepared by Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (“Valeant”) and gives effect to the acquisition of Salix Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. (“Salix”) by Valeant, including the related debt and equity issued by Valeant to finance the acquisition, as if such transactions had occurred on January 1, 2014.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 combines the historical consolidated balance sheets of Valeant and Salix, giving effect to the acquisition of Salix, including the debt and equity issued by Valeant to finance the acquisition, as if such transactions had occurred on December 31, 2014.

The historical consolidated financial information has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma events that are (1) directly attributable to the aforementioned transactions, (2) factually supportable, and (3) with respect to the statement of loss, expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were based on and should be read in conjunction with the:

 

    separate audited consolidated financial statements of Valeant as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the related notes, included in Valeant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014; and

 

    separate audited consolidated financial statements of Salix as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the related notes, incorporated herein by reference to Valeant’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on March 16, 2015.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been presented for informational purposes only. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of what the combined company’s financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition of Salix or the related financing transactions been completed as of the dates indicated. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company. There were no material transactions between Valeant and Salix during the period presented in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements that would need to be eliminated.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The accounting for the acquisition of Salix is dependent upon certain valuations that are provisional and are subject to change. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may occur and these differences could be material. The differences, if any, could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and Valeant’s future results of operations and financial position.

In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition of Salix, the costs to integrate the operations of Valeant and Salix or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.

Subsequent to December 31, 2014, Valeant has completed the following transactions:

 

    the redemption of the remaining $499.6 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% senior notes due 2018;

 

    the issuance of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.50% senior unsecured notes due 2023;

 

    the execution of joinder agreements to allow for an increase in commitment under the revolving credit facility to $1.5 billion and the issuance of $250.0 million in incremental term loans under the Series A-3 Tranche A Term Loan Facility under Valeant’s Third Amended and Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”);

 

    the acquisition of a portfolio of hospital products from Marathon Pharmaceuticals, LLC; and

 

    the acquisition of the assets of Dendreon Corporation, including the worldwide rights to the Provenge ® product.

These transactions are not directly attributable to the acquisition of Salix by Valeant and, as such, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not give effect to these transactions.

Furthermore, Valeant’s historical consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2014 included (1) a net gain of $323.9 million within other income resulting from the divestiture of its facial aesthetic fillers and toxins product rights and (2) a net gain of $286.7 million within gain on investments, net from the sale by PS Fund 1, LLC of shares of Allergan Inc. (“Allergan”) common stock allocable to Valeant, and the termination of its agreement with Pershing Square Capital Management L.P. as a result of Valeant’s withdrawal of the exchange offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Allergan. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have not been adjusted to exclude the effect of these transactions.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED

COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Description of Transaction

On April 1, 2015, Valeant completed the acquisition of Salix, pursuant to the agreement and plan of merger dated February 20, 2015 (as amended on March 16, 2015, the “Merger Agreement”), among Valeant, Valeant Pharmaceutical International, Sun Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Valeant (“Merger Sub”), and Salix (the “Salix Acquisition”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Salix became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Valeant.

On the date of the Salix Acquisition, each share of Salix common stock, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was converted into the right to receive $173.00 in cash (the “Per Share Merger Consideration”), without interest.

Each Salix stock option, unexpired and unexercised, that was outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the exercise price of such stock option, as applicable. Each share of Salix restricted stock, whether vested or unvested, that was outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration.

The Salix Acquisition was financed with debt and equity issuances, which are further discussed in Note 6. The net proceeds from the debt and equity issuances were utilized to fund (i) the Salix Acquisition, (ii) the repayment, termination and discharge of Salix’s outstanding indebtedness, and (iii) the related transaction costs and expenses.

 

2. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements were prepared using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations, with Valeant being the legal and accounting acquirer, and uses the fair value concepts defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, and was based on the historical financial statements of Valeant and Salix.

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded as of the completion of the Salix Acquisition, primarily at their respective fair values and added to those of Valeant. Financial statements and reported results of operations of Valeant issued after completion of the Salix Acquisition will reflect these values, but will not be retroactively restated to reflect the historical financial position or results of operations of Salix.

Under ASC 805, acquisition-related transaction costs (i.e., advisory, legal, valuation, other professional fees) and certain acquisition-related restructuring charges are not included as a component of consideration transferred but are accounted for as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred. Total acquisition-related transaction costs incurred by Valeant in connection with the Salix Acquisition totaled to approximately $80 million (including the commitment fee incurred by Valeant relating to the bridge loan facility obtained in connection with the Salix Acquisition). The estimated transaction costs are reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 as a reduction to cash and cash equivalents and an increase to accumulated deficit.

In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition of Salix, the costs to integrate the operations of Valeant and Salix or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.

 

3. Accounting Policies

Valeant is in the process of performing a detailed review of Salix’s accounting policies and to date, no material difference has been identified other than those described in Note 6(a) and 6(b). Valeant will complete this review in the post-combination period and as a result of the review, Valeant may identify additional differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that, when conformed, could have a material impact on the combined financial statements.

(a) Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the date of the Salix Acquisition, each share of Salix common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration, without interest.
(b) Each Salix stock option, unexpired and unexercised, that was outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Per Share Merger Consideration over the exercise price of such stock option, as applicable. Each share of Salix restricted stock, whether vested or unvested, that was outstanding immediately prior to the date of the Salix Acquisition was cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration.

 

   In accordance with ASC 805, the purchase consideration paid to holders of Salix stock options and restricted stock attributable to pre-combination services has been included as a component of purchase price.

 

   Cash consideration paid for outstanding restricted stock that was accelerated, by Valeant, in connection with the Salix Acquisition is accounted for as post-combination expense and, consequently, has been excluded from estimated purchase price. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, cash consideration paid for outstanding restricted stock, attributable to post-combination service, has been recorded as a reduction to cash and cash equivalents and an increase to accumulated deficit.

 

   In addition, the cash consideration paid for outstanding Salix stock options and restricted stock approximated the fair value of those options and restricted stock. Accordingly, no portion of the cash consideration paid for stock options and restricted stock attributable to pre-combination services has been reflected as compensation expense for purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

 

(c) The repayment of Salix’s Term Loan B Credit Facility has been reflected as part of the purchase consideration as the debt was repaid concurrently with the consummation of the Salix Acquisition and was not assumed by Valeant as part of the acquisition. Similarly, the redemption of Salix’s 6.00% Senior Notes due 2021 has been reflected as part of the purchase consideration as the indenture governing the 6.00% Senior Notes due 2021 was satisfied and discharged concurrently with the consummation of the Salix Acquisition and was not assumed by Valeant as part of the acquisition.

5. Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in Connection with the Salix Acquisition

Assuming an acquisition date of December 31, 2014, the following is a preliminary estimate of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed by Valeant in connection with the Salix Acquisition, reconciled to the estimated purchase price:

 

(In millions)

(a) Cash has been reduced by $100.5 million for payments made by Salix, subsequent to December 31, 2014 and prior to the consummation of the Salix Acquisition, for transaction fees incurred by Salix in connection with the sale of the company.
(b) A preliminary fair value estimate of $277.8 million has been assigned to inventories acquired. The pro forma fair value adjustment to inventories acquired is based on Salix’s inventories as of December 31, 2014, adjusted as follows based on Valeant management’s estimates using the following methods:

 

  i. Finished goods at estimated selling prices less the sum of costs of disposal and a reasonable profit allowance for the selling effort of a market participant;

 

  ii. Work in process at estimated selling prices of finished goods less the sum of costs to complete, costs of disposal, and a reasonable profit allowance for the completing and selling effort of a market participant based on profit for similar finished goods; and

 

  iii. Raw materials at current replacement costs.

 

(c) Includes an estimated fair value of $1,266.9 million to record the capped call transactions and convertible bond hedge transactions that were entered into by Salix in connection with its 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019 and 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015.
(d) A preliminary fair value estimate of $34.9 million has been assigned to property and equipment acquired. Valeant has assumed Salix’s historical net book value approximates fair value for these assets for purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements. The fair value of property and equipment was estimated based on a review of the assets’ remaining useful lives, current replacement costs, and disposal costs. The assumptions used to determine the fair value of Salix’s property and equipment may change as Valeant conducts, with the assistance of a third party appraiser, a valuation of Salix’s property and equipment following the completion of the acquisition.
(e) A preliminary fair value estimate of $12,990.5 million has been assigned to intangible assets acquired, primarily consisting of product rights (inclusive of trademarks and technology/patents), corporate brand, and in-process research and development (“IPR&D”). Amortization related to the fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets has been reflected as a pro forma adjustment to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of loss.

The fair value of the identifiable intangible assets and their weighted-average useful lives are as follows:

$ 12,990.5   
  

 

 

    

 

  (i) Acquired IPR&D assets are initially recognized at fair value and are classified as indefinite-lived assets until the successful completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. Accordingly, during the development period after the date of the Salix Acquisition, these assets will not be amortized into earnings; instead these assets will be subject to periodic impairment testing. Upon successful completion of the development process for an acquired IPR&D project, a determination as to the useful life of the asset will be made; at that point in time, the asset would then be considered a finite-lived intangible asset and amortization of the asset into earnings would commence, and the impact on earnings can be significant. If an IPR&D project were not successfully developed, an impairment charge may result, and such charge could be material.

 

   A key variable in determining the fair value of IPR&D includes the application of probability factors related to the likelihood of success of the respective products reaching each remaining stage of clinical and regulatory development, including market commercialization. The fair value of IPR&D is supported by industry and academic research papers that calculate probabilities of success by phase of development and by Valeant’s management view on regulatory risks for its IPR&D. Changes in these probability factors may have a significant impact on the asset values.

 

   IPR&D related to the Salix Acquisition is primarily comprised of product candidates in the approval stage, Phase 3 and Phase 2 of clinical trials. The most significant IPR&D project relates to a rifaximin compound for use for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (“IBS-D”). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has accepted the supplemental New Drug Application for rifaximin IBS-D and a PDUFA action date of May 27, 2015 has been set. In addition to the IBS-D indication, the rifaximin compound is also under development to treat Crohn’s disease and to prevent complications in early chronic decompensated liver disease. A further compound, methylnaltrexone bromide, is in Phase 3 clinical trials and will be used as an oral treatment for opioid-induced constipation in patients with chronic non-cancer pain.

 

   An upward or downward adjustment of 10% of the preliminary probability of FDA approval of each of the IPR&D assets will result in a fair value increase or decrease of the total IPR&D assets of approximately $1.1 billion. Such change would increase or decrease the deferred tax liability by approximately $0.4 billion and decrease or increase goodwill by approximately $0.7 billion. Valeant believes that an upward or downward adjustment of as much as approximately 20% of the preliminary fair value estimate of the total intangible assets, or approximately $2.6 billion, is reasonably possible. A fair value increase or decrease of this magnitude would increase or decrease the deferred tax liability by approximately $0.9 billion and decrease or increase goodwill by approximately $1.7 billion. Such change would result in an increase or decrease of approximately $87.0 million in annual amortization expense.

 

(f) Includes an estimated fair value of $1,082.2 million to record the warrant transactions that were entered into by Salix in connection with its 1.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019.
(g) Reflects the fair value of Salix’s debt as of the acquisition date as follows:

   $ (4,105.0 )
  

 

 

 

 

   For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, no adjustment has been made to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits, which is based on Valeant’s preliminary assessment and is subject to change. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different than the statutory tax rates used for the purposes of preparing these pro forma condensed combined financial statements for a variety of factors, including post-acquisition activities.

 

(i) Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred and the values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is not amortized and is not deductible for tax purposes.

 

6. Pro Forma Adjustments in Connection with the Salix Acquisition

This note should be read in conjunction with Note 1. Description of Transaction; Note 2. Basis of Presentation; Note 4. Fair Value of Consideration Transferred in Connection with the Salix Acquisition; and Note 5. Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in Connection with the Salix Acquisition. The following summarizes the pro forma adjustments in connection with the Salix Acquisition to give effect to the acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2014 for purposes of the pro forma condensed combined statement of loss and on December 31, 2014 for purposes of the pro forma condensed combined balance sheet:

 

  (a) Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of Salix to conform to the financial statement presentation adopted by Valeant, which include the following:

Adjustments made to Salix’s historical consolidated statement of loss for the year ended December 31, 2014:

 

  1) Reclassification of transaction costs of $150.4 million from selling, general and administrative expense to acquisition-related costs;

 

  2) Reclassification of milestone payments of $64.5 million related to Salix’s IPR&D intangible assets from research and development to in-process research and development impairments and other charges and reclassification of a termination payment of $5.0 million from research and development to restructuring, integration and other costs;

 

  3) Reclassification of intangible impairment charges of $162.3 million to amortization and impairments of finite-lived intangible assets; and


NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED

  4) Reclassification of interest income of $1.0 million from interest and other expense to interest income and reclassification of other expense of $3.7 million from interest and other expense to foreign exchange and other.

Adjustments made to Salix’s historical consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014:

 

  1) Reclassification of reserve for product returns, rebates and patient-focused promotional programs of $206.4 million to accrued and other current liabilities and reclassification of reserve for chargebacks of $63.0 million to trade receivables, net, which resulted in a further reclassification of Salix’s trade receivables, net to accrued and other current liabilities;

 

  2) Reclassification of the current portion of the Term Loan B credit facility and convertible senior notes of $981.1 million, in aggregate, to current portion of long-term debt;

 

  3) Reclassification of the Term Loan B credit facility and 2021 senior notes of $1,830.0 million, in aggregate, to long-term debt;

 

  4) Reclassification of other long-term liabilities of $15.9 million to liabilities for uncertain tax positions; and

 

  5) Reclassification of lease incentive obligation of $9.1 million to other long-term liabilities.

 

(b) To reduce cost of goods sold by $22.5 million for milestone payments relating to approved products that were incurred by Salix for the year ended December 31, 2014. Salix’s accounting policy is to recognize such milestone payment immediately in the statement of loss in the period when it is incurred whereas Valeant’s policy is to recognize such payment as part of the carrying value of the related finite-lived intangible asset and recognize amortization expense over the useful life of the intangible asset. For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the corresponding adjustments to intangible assets and amortization expense have been omitted as any such conforming adjustments to be made to Salix’s historical intangible assets and amortization expense would have been eliminated by the application of acquisition accounting (Note 6(c) and (i)).

 

(c) To adjust amortization of intangible assets as follows:

(a) To eliminate Salix’s historical interest expense as the associated debt would be repaid in connection with the Salix Acquisition.
(b) In connection with the Salix Acquisition, Valeant obtained $16.7 billion in financing through (i) a syndication of the incremental term loan facilities of approximately $5.15 billion under Valeant’s existing senior credit facilities (the “Incremental Term Loan Facility”), (ii) the issuance of senior unsecured notes with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $10.1 billion, and (iii) the issuance of new equity of approximately $1.45 billion prior to the closing of the Salix Acquisition. Details pertaining to the Incremental Term Loan Facility and the senior unsecured notes are as follows:

 

  (i) The Incremental Term Loan Facility

Concurrent with the closing of the Salix Acquisition, Valeant incurred incremental term loan facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $5,150.0 million under its existing senior credit facilities. The Incremental Term Loan Facility consists of (1) a term loan A facility of $1,000.0 million (“Term Loan A Facility”) and (2) a term loan B facility of $4,150.0 million (“Term Loan B Facility”)), and bears interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the election of Valeant, (a) with respect to the Term Loan A Facility, (i) base rate plus a range between 0.75% and 1.25% or (ii) LIBO rate plus a range between 1.75% and 2.25%, in each case, depending on Valeant’s leverage ratio and (b) with respect to the Term Loan B Facility, (i) the base rate plus a range between 2.00% and 2.25% or (ii) LIBO rate plus a range between 3.00% and 3.25%, depending on Valeant’s leverage ratio and subject to a 1.75% base rate floor and 0.75% LIBO rate floor, and having terms that are consistent with the Valeant’s current term loan facility.

The Term Loan A Facility has a maturity of 5 years and will be payable in equal quarterly amounts of (i) 5% per annum in the first year following the closing date, (ii) 10% per annum in the second year following the closing date and (iii) 20% per annum in each of the third, fourth and fifth years following the closing date, with the remaining balance due at the maturity. The Term Loan B Facility has a maturity of 7 years and will be payable in equal quarterly amounts of 1% per annum with the remaining balance due upon maturity. Valeant incurred approximately $5.3 million of deferred financing costs and approximately $79.3 million of debt issue discount, primarily consisting of original issue discount and financing fees paid to the lenders, in connection with the Incremental Term Loan Facility, which will be amortized over the term of the loans. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, an interest rate of 2.41% and 4.00% has been assumed for the Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, respectively, and the effective interest rate for the Incremental Term Loan is estimated to be 2.67% and 4.25% for the Term Loan A Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, respectively.

For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, a 0.125 percent change in the margin of the Incremental Term Loan Facility assumed above could result in an increase or decrease in interest expense of $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014.

  (ii) The senior unsecured notes

On March 27, 2015, Valeant completed its notes offering of the U.S. dollar equivalent of approximately $10.1 billion aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes in the following four series denominated in U.S. dollars and euro:

5.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (“2020 Notes”)

The 2020 Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of $2,000.0 million, accrue interest at the rate of 5.375% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. The 2020 Notes have a maturity of 5 years. Approximately $22.5 million of financing fees, payable to lenders, were incurred by Valeant in connection with the 2020 Notes and are recognized as debt issue discount, which will be amortized over the term of the notes. The effective rate of interest for the 2020 Notes is estimated to be 5.66%.

5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (“2023 Notes”)

The 2023 Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of $3,250.0 million, accrue interest at the rate of 5.875% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. The 2023 Notes have a maturity of 8 years. Approximately $36.6 million of financing fees, payable to lenders, were incurred by Valeant in connection with the 2023 Notes and were recognized as debt issue discount, which will be amortized over the term of the notes. The effective rate of interest for the 2023 Notes is estimated to be 6.07%.

4.50% Senior Notes due 2023 (“Euro Notes”)

The Euro Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of €1,500.0 million, accrue interest at the rate of 4.50% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. The Euro Notes have a maturity of 8 years. Approximately €16.9 million of financing fees, payable to lenders, were incurred by Valeant in connection with the Euro Notes and were recognized as debt issue discount, which will be amortized over the term of the notes. The effective rate of interest for the Euro Notes is estimated to be 4.69%. For purposes of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the Euro Notes and the related debt issue discount have been translated at a rate of USD 1.0731 to EUR 1.00, which is the foreign exchange rate as of March 31, 2015.

A one percent change in Euro against U.S. dollar would increase or decrease the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Euro Notes by $16.1 million.

6.125% Senior Notes due 2025 (“2025 Notes”)

The 2025 Notes, in the aggregate principal amount of $3,250.0 million, accrue interest at the rate of 6.125% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. The 2025 Notes have a maturity of 10 years. Approximately $36.5 million of financing fees, payable to lenders, were incurred by Valeant in connection with the 2025 Notes and were recognized as debt issue discount, which will be amortized over the term of the notes. The effective rate of interest for the 2025 Notes is estimated to be 6.29%.

Valeant incurred approximately $11.0 million of deferred financing costs in connection with the issuance of the senior unsecured notes, which was recognized as other assets and will be amortized over the term of the respective notes.

As the senior unsecured notes bear interest at a fixed rate, a 0.125 percent change in interest rate would not have an impact on the interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014.

 

(c) To record amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount incurred by Valeant in connection with the issuance of approximately $15.3 billion debt financing for the Salix Acquisition.
(d) To record amortization of additional debt discount and deferred financing fees of $51.3 million incurred by Valeant as a result of the amendment to its existing Credit Agreement in connection with the Salix Acquisition. The amendment is accounted for as modification in accordance with ASC 470-20, Modifications and Extinguishments, and the fee incurred by Valeant is treated as additional debt discount for the borrowings issued and deferred financing fees for the revolving credit facility under its existing Credit Agreement and would be amortized over the remaining term of those borrowings. Of the $51.3 million incurred by Valeant, $9.4 million is attributable to the revolving credit facility.

 

(e) To record an estimate of the deferred income tax impacts of the Salix Acquisition on the balance sheet and statements of loss, primarily related to the additional interest expense on incremental debt to finance the Salix Acquisition and estimated fair value adjustments for identifiable intangible assets, and inventory (see Notes 6(b), (c), (d) and (f)). The tax effect related to additional interest expense on incremental debt to be incurred by Valeant and amortization of intangible assets has been determined based on Valeant’s statutory tax rate of 26.5%. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different than the statutory tax rates assumed for purposes of preparing these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for a variety of factors, including post-acquisition activities.
(f) To adjust acquired inventory to an estimate of fair value. The combined company’s cost of goods sold will reflect the increased valuation of Salix’s inventory as the acquired inventory is sold, which is expected to occur within the first year post-acquisition. There is no continuing impact of the acquired inventory adjustment on the combined operating results, and as such, it is not included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of loss.
(g) To reclass acquisition-related costs to conform to the financial statement presentation adopted by Valeant (see Note 6(a)) and to eliminate transaction costs of $1.9 million incurred by Salix in connection with the Salix Acquisition.
