NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Basis of presentation
We prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleflex Incorporated on the same basis as our annual consolidated financial statements, with the exception of changes resulting from the adoption of new accounting guidance during the first six months of 2010 as described in Note 2 below. Captions for certain financial statement line items have changed to correspond with the XBRL taxonomy; however, composition of these line items has not changed.
In the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of financial statements for interim periods in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, which sets forth the instructions for financial statements included in Form 10-Q. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures that are required to be included in our annual consolidated financial statements. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but, as permitted by Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X, does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Accordingly, our quarterly condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Teleflex” and the “Company” mean Teleflex Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The results of operations for the periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full year.
Note 2 — New accounting standards
The Company adopted the following amendments to accounting standards as of January 1, 2010, the first day of its 2010 fiscal year:
Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets — an amendment to Transfers and Servicing: In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance to improve the information that is reported in financial statements about the transfer of financial assets and the effects of transfers of financial assets on financial position, financial performance and cash flows and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, with transferred financial assets. In addition, the guidance limits the circumstances in which a financial asset or a portion of a financial asset should be derecognized in the financial statements of the transferor when the transferor has not transferred the entire original financial asset. Upon the adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010, the trade receivables under the Company’s accounts receivable securitization program (the “Securitization Program”) that were previously treated as sold and removed from the balance sheet are now included in accounts receivable, net, and the amounts outstanding under the Securitization Program are accounted for as a secured borrowing and reflected as short-term debt on the Company’s balance sheet. As of June 27, 2010 the trade receivables and secured borrowing is $39.7 million. In addition, while there has been no change in the arrangement under the Securitization Program, the adoption of this amendment impacts the cash flow statement as a reduction in cash flow from operations by approximately $39.7 million with a corresponding increase in cash flow from financing activities.
Amendment to Consolidation: In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance that requires an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (which would result in the enterprise being deemed the primary beneficiary of that entity and, therefore, obligated to consolidate the variable interest entity in its financial statements); to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to revise guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement with a variable interest entity. As a result of the adoption of this guidance, the Company deconsolidated a variable interest entity, which had revenue of approximately $10 million during 2009, because the Company did not have a controlling financial interest. Refer to the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of changes in equity for the impact of the deconsolidation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Amendment to Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures: In January 2010, the FASB issued an update that amends disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements. The amendment requires new disclosures about transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 and to provide a reconciliation of the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements presenting purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis. In addition the amendment clarifies existing disclosures with respect to the level of disaggregation that an entity should provide for fair value measurement and it clarifies the disclosures surrounding the valuation techniques and the inputs used to measure fair value. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurement activity which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The amendment did not have an impact on our current disclosures of fair value. We will provide the additional disclosures related to Level 3 pension plan assets, if any, upon the effective date for Level 3.
The Company will adopt the following new accounting standards as of January 1, 2011, the first day of its 2011 fiscal year:
Amendment to Software: In October 2009, the FASB changed the accounting model for revenue arrangements for certain tangible products containing software components and nonsoftware components. The guidance provides direction on how to determine which software, if any, relating to the tangible product is excluded from the scope of the software revenue guidance. The amendment will be effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.
Amendment to Revenue Recognition: In October 2009, the FASB revised the criteria for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements by establishing new guidance on how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. Additionally, the guidance requires vendors to expand their disclosures regarding multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements and will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.
Note 3 — Integration
Integration of Arrow
In connection with the acquisition of Arrow International, Inc. (“Arrow”) in October 2007, the Company formulated a plan related to the integration of Arrow and the Company’s Medical businesses. The integration plan focuses on the closure of Arrow corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution functions in North America, Europe and Asia. The Company finalized its estimate of the costs to implement the plan in the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company has accrued estimates for certain costs, related primarily to personnel reductions and facility closures and the termination of certain distribution agreements, at the date of acquisition.
The following table provides information relating to changes in the accrued liability associated with the Arrow integration plan during the six months ended June 27, 2010:
                                 
    Balance at                     Balance at

  $ 3.6     $ (0.1 )   $ (0.4 )   $ 3.1  
 
                       
Contract termination costs represent the termination of a European distributor agreement that is currently in litigation but is expected to be paid in 2011.
In conjunction with the plan for the integration of Arrow and the Company’s Medical businesses, the Company has taken actions that affect employees and facilities of Teleflex. This aspect of the integration plan is explained in Note 4, “Restructuring and other impairment charges.” Costs that affect employees and facilities of Teleflex are charged to earnings and included in restructuring and other impairment charges within the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the periods in which the costs are incurred.

2008 Commercial Segment Restructuring Program
In December 2008, the Company began certain restructuring initiatives with respect to the Company’s Commercial Segment. The initiatives involved the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at certain of the Company’s facilities in North America and Europe. The Company determined to undertake these initiatives as a means to improve operating performance and to better leverage its resources due to weakness in the marine and industrial markets.
By December 31, 2009, the Company had completed the 2008 Commercial Segment restructuring program, and all costs associated with the program were fully paid during 2009. No charges have been recorded under this program in 2010.
The charges associated with the 2008 Commercial Segment restructuring program that were included in restructuring and other impairment charges in the condensed consolidated statements of income during the three and six months ended June 28, 2009 were as follows:

  $ 3,195     $ 996     $ (2,511 )   $ (14 )   $ 1,666  
 
                             
Termination benefits are comprised of severance-related payments for all employees terminated in connection with the 2007 Arrow integration program. Facility closure costs relate primarily to costs to prepare a facility for closure. Contract termination costs relate primarily to the termination of a European distributor agreement and leases in conjunction with the consolidation of facilities. The gain on sale of assets included in restructuring and other impairment charges reflects the sale of one of the properties with a zero net book value associated with the 2007 Arrow integration program in its Medical Segment.
As of June 27, 2010, the Company expects to incur the following restructuring expenses associated with the 2007 Arrow integration program in its Medical Segment for the last six months of 2010:
         
    (Dollars in millions)  
Termination benefits
  $ 0.5 – 1.0  
Facility closure costs
    0.3 – 0.5  
Contract termination costs
    0.1 – 0.2  
 
     
 
  $ 0.9 – 1.7  
 
     
Impairment Charges
During the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a $2.3 million impairment charge with respect to an intangible asset in the Marine reporting unit. See Note 5, “Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.”
Note 5 Impairment of goodwill and intangible assets
The Company performed an interim review of goodwill and intangible assets in the Marine and Cargo Container reporting units during the second quarter of 2009 and determined that $6.7 million of goodwill in the Cargo Container operations and $2.3 million of indefinite lived tradenames in the Marine reporting unit were impaired. The Company performed this interim review as a result of the difficult market conditions in which these reporting units were operating and the significant deterioration in the operating performance of these reporting units, which accelerated in the second quarter of 2009.
In performing the goodwill impairment test, the Company estimated the fair values of these two reporting units by a combination of (i) estimation of the discounted cash flows of each of the reporting units based on projected earnings in the future (the income approach) and (ii) analysis of sales of similar assets in actual transactions (the market approach). Using this methodology, the Company determined that the entire $6.7 million of goodwill in the Cargo Container reporting unit was impaired, but that goodwill in the Marine reporting unit was not impaired. In performing the impairment test for the indefinite lived intangibles, the Company estimated the direct cash flows associated with the applicable intangible assets using a “relief from royalty” methodology associated with revenues projected to be generated from these intangibles. Under this methodology, the owner of an intangible asset must determine the arms length royalty that likely would have been charged if the owner had to license that asset from a third party. This analysis indicated that certain tradenames in the Marine reporting unit were impaired by $2.3 million.

Note 8 — Financial instruments
The Company uses derivative instruments for risk management purposes. Forward rate contracts are used to manage foreign currency transaction exposure and interest rate swaps are used to reduce exposure to interest rate changes. These derivative instruments are designated as cash flow hedges and are recorded on the balance sheet at fair market value. The effective portion of the gains or losses on derivatives are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. See Note 9, “Fair value measurement” for additional information.
The location and fair values of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

The carrying amount reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 27, 2010 for long-term debt is $1,128.2 million. Using a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality, and risk profile, the Company has determined the fair value of its debt to be $1,131.2 million at June 27, 2010. The Company’s implied credit rating is a factor in determining the market interest yield curve.

Valuation Techniques
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of overnight investments in money market funds. The funds invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, bonds and notes. The funds seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share.
The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 1 inputs are comprised of investments in marketable securities held in trusts which are used to pay benefits under certain deferred compensation plan benefits. Under these deferred compensation plans, participants designate investment options to serve as the basis for measurement of the notional value of their accounts. The investment assets of the trust are valued using quoted market prices multiplied by the number of shares held in the trust.
The Company’s financial assets valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company’s financial liabilities valued based upon Level 2 inputs are comprised of an interest rate swap contract and foreign currency forward contracts. The Company has taken into account the creditworthiness of the counterparties in measuring fair value. The Company uses forward rate contracts to manage currency transaction exposure and interest rate swaps to manage exposure to interest rate changes. The fair value of the interest rate swap contract is developed from market-based inputs under the income approach using cash flows discounted at relevant market interest rates. The fair value of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts represents the amount required to enter into offsetting contracts with similar remaining maturities based on quoted market prices. See Note 8, “Financial instruments” for additional information.
Note 10 —Changes in shareholders’ equity
In 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of outstanding Company common stock. Repurchases of Company stock under the Board authorization may be made from time to time in the open market and may include privately-negotiated transactions as market conditions warrant and subject to regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and the Company’s ability to execute on the program will depend on, among other factors, cash requirements for acquisitions, cash generation from operations, debt repayment obligations, market conditions and regulatory requirements. In addition, the Company’s senior loan agreements limit the aggregate amount of share repurchases and other restricted payments the Company may make to $75 million per year in the event the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio exceeds 3.5 to 1. Accordingly, these provisions may limit the Company’s ability to repurchase shares under this Board authorization. Through June 27, 2010, no shares have been purchased under this Board authorization.
The following table provides a reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding:
                                 
    Three Months Ended     Six Months Ended  
    June 27,     June 28,     June 27,     June 28,

Diluted
    40,356       39,921       40,277       39,899  
 
                       
Weighted average stock options that were anti-dilutive and therefore not included in the calculation of earnings per share were approximately 1,004 thousand and 871 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 27, 2010 and approximately 2,015 thousand and 1,749 thousand for the three and six month periods ended June 28, 2009, respectively.
Note 11 — Stock compensation plans
The Company has two stock-based compensation plans under which equity-based awards may be made. The Company’s 2000 Stock Compensation Plan (the “2000 plan”) provides for the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards to directors, officers and key employees. Under the 2000 plan, the Company is authorized to issue up to 4 million shares of common stock, but no more than 800,000 of those shares may be issued as restricted stock. Options granted under the 2000 plan have an exercise price equal to the average of the high and low sales prices of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant, rounded to the nearest $0.25. Generally, options granted under the 2000 plan are exercisable three to five years after the date of the grant and expire no more than ten years after the grant date. Restricted stock awards generally vest in one to three years. During the first six months of 2010, the Company granted restricted stock awards representing 161,301 shares of common stock under the 2000 plan. The unrecognized compensation expense for these awards as of the grant date was $9.2 million, which will be recognized over the vesting period of the awards.

The Company’s 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2008 plan”) provides for the granting of various types of equity-based awards to directors, officers and key employees. These awards include incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards and other stock-based awards. Under the 2008 plan, the Company is authorized to issue up to 2.5 million shares of common stock, but grants of awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights may not exceed 875,000 shares. Options granted under the 2008 plan have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Generally, options granted under the 2008 plan are exercisable three years after the date of the grant and expire no more than ten years after the grant date. During the first six months of 2010, the Company granted incentive and non-qualified options to purchase 590,042 shares of common stock under the 2008 plan. The unrecognized compensation expense for these awards as of the grant date was $7.3 million, which will be recognized over the vesting period of the awards.
Note 12 — Pension and other postretirement benefits
The Company has a number of defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering eligible U.S. and non-U.S. employees. The defined benefit pension plans are noncontributory. The benefits under these plans are based primarily on years of service and employees’ pay near retirement. The Company’s funding policy for U.S. plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws and regulations. Obligations under non-U.S. plans are systematically provided for by depositing funds with trustees or by book reserves.
In 2009, a number of qualifying individuals accepted the Company’s offer of an early retirement program. As a result, the Company recognized special termination benefits of $402 thousand in pension expense and $395 thousand in postretirement expense in the second quarter of 2009.
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries provide medical, dental and life insurance benefits to pensioners and survivors. The associated plans are unfunded and approved claims are paid from Company funds.
Net benefit cost of pension and postretirement benefit plans consisted of the following:

Note 13 — Commitments and contingent liabilities
Product warranty liability: The Company warrants to the original purchasers of certain of its products that it will, at its option, repair or replace such products, without charge, if they fail due to a manufacturing defect. Warranty periods vary by product. The Company has recourse provisions for certain products that would enable recovery from third parties for amounts paid under the warranty. The Company accrues for product warranties when, based on available information, it is probable that customers will make claims under warranties relating to products that have been sold, and a reasonable estimate of the costs (based on historical claims experience relative to sales) can be made. The following table provides information regarding changes in the Company’s product warranty liability accruals for the six months ended June 27, 2010 (dollars in thousands):

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
Operating leases: The Company uses various leased facilities and equipment in its operations. The terms for these leased assets vary depending on the lease agreement. In connection with these operating leases, the Company had residual value guarantees in the amount of approximately $8.6 million at June 27, 2010. The Company’s future payments under the operating leases cannot exceed the minimum rent obligation plus the residual value guarantee amount. The residual value guarantee amounts are based upon the unamortized lease values of the assets under lease, and are payable by the Company if the Company declines to renew the leases or to exercise its purchase option with respect to the leased assets. At June 27, 2010, the Company had no liabilities recorded for these obligations. Any residual value guarantee amounts paid to the lessor may be recovered by the Company from the sale of the assets to a third party.
Environmental: The Company is subject to contingencies as a result of environmental laws and regulations that in the future may require the Company to take further action to correct the effects on the environment of prior disposal practices or releases of chemical or petroleum substances by the Company or other parties. Much of this liability results from the U.S. Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), often referred to as Superfund, the U.S. Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”) and similar state laws. These laws require the Company to undertake certain investigative and remedial activities at sites where the Company conducts or once conducted operations or at sites where Company-generated waste was disposed.
Remediation activities vary substantially in duration and cost from site to site. These activities, and their associated costs, depend on the mix of unique site characteristics, evolving remediation technologies, diverse regulatory agencies and enforcement policies, as well as the presence or absence of other potentially responsible parties. At June 27, 2010, the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet included an accrued liability of approximately $8.3 million relating to these matters. Considerable uncertainty exists with respect to these costs and, if adverse changes in circumstances occur, potential liability may exceed the amount accrued as of June 27, 2010. The time frame over which the accrued amounts may be paid out, based on past history, is estimated to be 15-20 years.
Regulatory matters: On October 11, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary, Arrow International, Inc. (“Arrow”), received a corporate warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The letter expressed concerns with Arrow’s quality systems, including complaint handling, corrective and preventive action, process and design validation, inspection and training procedures. It also advised that Arrow’s corporate-wide program to evaluate, correct and prevent quality system issues had been deficient.
The Company developed a comprehensive plan to correct these previously-identified regulatory issues and further improve overall quality systems and has substantially implemented the measures outlined in the plan. From the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2010, the FDA reinspected the Arrow facilities covered by the corporate warning letter and Arrow has responded to the observations issued by the FDA as a result of those inspections. In the third quarter of 2010, Arrow began submitting requests for certificates to foreign governments, or CFGs, to the FDA for review, and recently received approval on one of its requests. The Company believes that the FDA’s approval of the CFG is a clear indication that Arrow has substantially corrected the quality system issues identified in the corporate warning letter. The Company has now submitted all of its currently eligible CFG requests to the FDA for review and currently anticipates receiving the FDA’s approval with respect to most of these requests in the third quarter of 2010.
While the Company continues to believe it has substantially remediated the issues raised in the corporate warning letter through the corrective actions taken to date, the corporate warning letter remains in place pending final resolution of all outstanding issues, which the Company is actively working with the FDA to resolve. If the Company’s remedial actions are not satisfactory to the FDA, the Company may have to devote additional financial and human resources to its efforts, and the FDA may take further regulatory actions against the Company.
Litigation: The Company is a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment and environmental matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Legal costs such as outside counsel fees and expenses are charged to expense in the period incurred.

Tax audits and examinations: In an April 12, 2010 notice to our subsidiary Arrow International CR, the taxing authority in the Czech Republic has questioned the transfer pricing Arrow International CR utilized for certain products sold during 2006. The notice requests additional information and states that if the tax authority is not satisfied with our response, it intends to challenge certain tax incentives received by Arrow International CR for the 2001-2006 years in their entirety. We have consulted with external advisors and believe the transfer pricing policy of Arrow International CR met the essential requirements of the tax incentive program. If the taxing authority were to ultimately prevail in disallowing the entire tax incentive benefit, the cost, including penalties and interest, would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. The tax incentive program expired in 2006 in accordance with its intended term, therefore any loss of the tax incentives benefit would not have an impact on current or future operations.
In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are routinely subject to income tax examinations by various taxing authorities. As of June 27, 2010, the most significant tax examinations in process are in the United States, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy and France. The timing of completion and ultimate outcome of such examinations is uncertain. As a result of the uncertain outcome of these ongoing examinations, future examinations, or the expiration of statutes of limitation for certain jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken could materially change from those recorded as liabilities at June 27, 2010. Due to the potential for resolution of certain foreign and U.S. examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits may change within the next twelve months by a range of zero to $23 million.
Other: The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and items of permanent investment incident to the ordinary conduct of business. On average, such commitments are not at prices in excess of current market.

Forward-Looking Statements
All statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “guidance,” “potential,” “continue,” “project,” “forecast,” “confident,” “prospects,” and similar expressions typically are used to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the then-current expectations, beliefs, assumptions, estimates and forecasts about our business and the industry and markets in which we operate. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including our ability to resolve, to the satisfaction of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the issues identified in the corporate warning letter issued to Arrow International; changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers or suppliers, including delays or cancellations in shipments; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; our ability to integrate acquired businesses into our operations, realize planned synergies and operate such businesses profitably in accordance with expectations; our ability to effectively execute our restructuring programs; competitive market conditions and resulting effects on revenues and pricing; increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing; and global economic factors, including currency exchange rates and interest rates; difficulties entering new markets; and general economic conditions. For a further discussion of the risks relating to our business, see Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. We expressly disclaim any obligation to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise specifically stated by us or as required by law or regulation.
Overview
Teleflex is principally a global provider of medical technology products that enable healthcare providers to improve patient outcomes, reduce infections and enhance patient and provider safety. We primarily develop, manufacture and supply single-use medical devices used by hospitals and healthcare providers for common diagnostic and therapeutic procedures in critical care and surgical applications. We serve hospitals and healthcare providers in more than 140 countries.
We provide a broad-based platform of medical products, which we categorize into four groups: Critical Care, Surgical Care, Cardiac Care and OEM and Development Services. Critical Care, representing our largest product group, includes medical devices used in vascular access, anesthesia, urology and respiratory care applications; Surgical Care includes surgical instruments and devices; and Cardiac Care includes cardiac assist devices and equipment. We also design and manufacture instruments and devices for other medical device manufacturers.
In addition to our medical business, we also have businesses that serve niche segments of the aerospace and commercial markets with specialty engineered products. Our aerospace products include cargo-handling systems, containers, and pallets for commercial air cargo, and military aircraft actuators. Our commercial products include driver controls, engine assemblies and drive parts for the marine industry.
Over the past several years, we have engaged in an extensive acquisition and divestiture program to improve margins, reduce cyclicality and focus our resources on the development of our healthcare business. We have significantly changed the composition of our portfolio of businesses, expanding our presence in the medical device industry, while divesting many of our businesses serving the aerospace and commercial markets. The most significant of these transactions occurred in 2007 with our acquisition of Arrow International, a leading global supplier of catheter-based medical technology products used for vascular access and cardiac care, and the divestiture of our automotive and industrial businesses. Our acquisition of Arrow significantly expanded our single-use medical product offerings for critical care, enhanced our global footprint and added to our research and development capabilities.
We continually evaluate the composition of the portfolio of our products and businesses to ensure alignment with our overall objectives. We strive to maintain a portfolio of products and businesses that provide consistency of performance, improved profitability and sustainable growth.
On May 27, 2010, we entered into a definitive agreement to sell our rigging products and services business (“Heavy Lift”), a reporting unit within our Commercial Segment, to Houston Wire & Cable Company for $50 million. We completed the sale on June 25, 2010 and realized a gain of $17.1 million, net of tax, from the sale of the business.
On March 2, 2010, we completed the sale of our SSI Surgical Services Inc. business (“SSI”), a reporting unit within our Medical Segment, to a privately-owned multi-service line healthcare company for approximately $25 million. We realized a gain of $2.0 million, net of tax, on this transaction.

In December 2009, we completed the transfer of our ownership interest in the remaining ATI business (together with ATI Singapore, the “ATI businesses”) to GE for a nominal amount.
The Medical, Aerospace and Commercial segments comprised 80%, 9% and 11% of our revenues, respectively, for the six months ended June 27, 2010 and comprised 81%, 10% and 9% of our revenues, respectively, for the same period in 2009.
Health Care Reform
On March 23, 2010 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law. This legislation will have a significant impact on our business. For medical device companies such as Teleflex, the expansion of medical insurance coverage should lead to greater utilization of the products we manufacture, but this legislation also contains provisions designed to contain the cost of healthcare, which could negatively affect pricing of our products. In addition, commencing in 2013, the legislation imposes a 2.3% excise tax on sales of medical devices. As this new law is implemented over the next 2-3 years, we will be in a better position to ascertain its impact on our business. We currently estimate the impact of the medical device excise tax will be approximately $16 million annually, beginning in 2013. Also in the first quarter of 2010, we evaluated the change in the tax regulations related to the Medicare Part D subsidy as currently outlined in the new legislation and determined that it did not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Results of Operations
Discussion of growth from acquisitions reflects the impact of a purchased company for up to twelve months beyond the date of acquisition. Activity beyond the initial twelve months is considered core growth. Core growth excludes the impact of translating the results of international subsidiaries at different currency exchange rates from year to year and the comparable activity of divested companies within the most recent twelve-month period.
The following comparisons exclude the operations of Heavy Lift, SSI, Power Systems and the ATI businesses, which have been presented in our consolidated financial results as discontinued operations. See Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report for discussion of discontinued operations.

    (Dollars in millions)  
Net revenues
  $ 461.7     $ 439.2     $ 882.9     $ 854.3  
Net revenues for the second quarter of 2010 increased approximately 5% to $461.7 million from $439.2 million in the second quarter of 2009. Core revenues for the quarter increased 7%, offset by foreign currency translation which negatively impacted sales 1%. The deconsolidation of a variable interest entity in our Medical Segment in the first quarter of 2010 due to the adoption of new accounting guidance caused an additional 1% decline in revenue. Core revenues were higher in the Aerospace Segment (32%), due to improving conditions in commercial aviation markets, and in the Commercial Segment (25%), as recreational boating markets recover from the depressed levels of 2009. Core revenues in the Medical Segment were 2% higher than the second quarter of 2009 as the negative impact from a voluntary recall of a product in our critical care product group and lower sales of surgical products and orthopedic devices sold to medical original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, was offset by higher sales of other critical care products.
Net revenues for the first six months of 2010 increased approximately 3% to $882.9 million from $854.3 million in 2009. Revenues from core business increased 3%, foreign currency translation increased sales 1%, while the disposition of a product line in the Commercial Segment during the first quarter of 2009 and the deconsolidation of an entity in the Medical Segment in the first quarter of 2010 resulted in an aggregate 1% decline in revenues. Each of our three segments report higher core revenues: Medical (1%), Aerospace (4%) and Commercial (21%).

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues for the second quarter of 2010 decreased to 25.7% from 26.8% in 2009. The $1 million increase in costs was due to approximately $3 million of higher spending, principally related to Medical Segment sales and marketing activities, offset by a $2 million reduction caused by foreign currency exchange fluctuations.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues for the first six months of 2010 decreased to 26.5% from 27.2% for the same period in 2009. The net increase in these costs was principally related to $6 million in higher costs in the Medical Segment largely due to sales and marketing activities, partially offset by reductions in the Aerospace and Commercial segments and Corporate costs of approximately $5 million.

Interest expense decreased in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009 due to a reduction of approximately $126 million in average outstanding debt. For the first six months of 2010, average outstanding debt was approximately $215 million lower compared to the corresponding period of 2009.

We performed an interim review of goodwill for our Cargo Container reporting unit during the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the difficult market conditions confronting the Cargo Container reporting unit and the significant deterioration in its operating performance, which accelerated in the second quarter of 2009. Upon conclusion of this review, we determined that goodwill in the Cargo Container operations was impaired, and we recorded an impairment charge of $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2009.

In December 2008, we began certain restructuring initiatives that affected the Commercial Segment. These initiatives involved the consolidation of operations and a related reduction in workforce at three of our facilities in Europe and North America. We determined to undertake these initiatives to improve operating performance and to better leverage our existing resources in light of expected weakness in the marine and industrial markets. By December 31, 2009, we had completed the 2008 Commercial Segment restructuring program and all costs associated with the program were fully paid during 2009. Therefore, no charges were recorded under this program in 2010. We expect to realize annual pre-tax savings of between $3.5 — $4.5 million in 2010 as a result of actions taken in connection with this program.
In connection with the acquisition of Arrow in 2007, we formulated a plan related to the integration of Arrow and our other Medical businesses. The integration plan focused on the closure of Arrow corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, marketing and distribution functions in North America, Europe and Asia. Costs related to actions that affected employees and facilities of Arrow have been included in the allocation of the purchase price of Arrow. Costs related to actions that affected employees and facilities of Teleflex are charged to earnings and included in restructuring and impairment charges within the condensed consolidated statement of operations. These costs amounted to approximately $0.1 million and $0.5 million during the three and six months ended June 27, 2010, respectively. As of June 27, 2010, we estimate that, for the remainder of 2010, the aggregate of future restructuring and impairment charges that we will incur in connection with the Arrow integration plan are approximately $0.9 — $1.7 million. Of this amount, $0.5 — $1.0 million relates to employee termination costs, $0.3 — $0.5 million relates to facility closure costs and $0.1 — $0.2 million relates to contract termination costs associated with the termination of a European distributor agreement. We expect to have realized aggregate annual pre-tax savings of between $70 — $75 million after these integration and restructuring actions are complete.

The following is a discussion of our segment operating results.
Comparison of the three and six months ended June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009
Medical
Medical Segment net revenues in the second quarter of 2010 of $358.4 million were essentially unchanged, from the $358.3 million reported in the same period last year, as core growth of 2% was offset by the impact of currency movements (1%) and the impact of the deconsolidation of a variable interest entity due to the adoption of new accounting guidance in the first quarter of 2010 (1%). Core revenue increases in the North American, European and Asia/Latin American critical care product groups and OEM specialty sutures and other devices were offset by declines in OEM orthopedic instrumentation products and in North American surgical products.
Net revenues for the first six months of 2010 were $702.0 million, an increase of 1% compared to $693.1 million in net revenues for the same period of 2009. Core revenue increased 1% during the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009. The increase in core revenue was predominantly in the North American, European and Asia/Latin American critical care product groups and OEM specialty sutures and other devices, offset by declines in OEM orthopedic implant products and in North American surgical products.

“Other” in 2009 included the net revenues of a variable interest entity that was deconsolidated in the first quarter of 2010 as a result of the adoption of new accounting guidance. See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information on the new accounting guidance.
Medical Segment net revenues for the six months ended June 27, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively, by geographic location were as follows:
                 
    2010     2009  
North America
    52 %     53 %
Europe, Middle East and Africa
    36 %     36 %
Asia and Latin America
    12 %     11 %
Excluding the impact of the custom IV tubing product recall initiated during the first quarter of 2010, which caused a decline in vascular access sales, all of our critical care product categories (vascular, anesthesia, respiratory and urology) contributed growth in the second quarter of 2010 compared with the prior year quarter, led principally by higher sales of vascular and respiratory care products in North America and Asia/Latin America, anesthesia products in Asia/Latin America and urology products in North America and Europe.

Table of Contents

Surgical core revenue declined approximately 1% in the second quarter of 2010 and 3% for the first six months of 2010 compared with the same periods in 2009. The decline resulted from lower sales of general instrument and closure devices, mainly in North America, partially offset by higher ligation sales in Asia/Latin America.
Core revenue of cardiac care products during the second quarter of 2010 compare favorably to the same period of 2009 due to higher sales of intra aortic balloon pumps and related catheters in Asian markets.
Core revenue to OEMs increased 4% in the second quarter of 2010 and 3% for the first six months of 2010 compared with 2009. This increase is largely attributable to higher sales of specialty suture and catheter fabrication products, partially offset by lower sales of orthopedic implant products due to customer inventory rebalancing, a reduction in new product launches by OEM customers and overall weakness in the OEM orthopedic markets.
Operating profit in the Medical Segment decreased 6%, from $77.8 million in the second quarter of 2009 to $73.5 million during the second quarter of 2010. Operating profit during the second quarter of 2010 was favorably impacted by a weaker U.S. dollar, particularly against the Canadian dollar compared to the same period of a year ago and $1 million lower expenses related to the remediation of FDA regulatory issues, offset by approximately $8 million higher spending on sales, marketing, administrative and research and development activities.
Medical Segment operating profit decreased from $147.2 million during the first six months of 2009 to $147.0 million during the first six months of 2010. The positive impact on operating profit from a weaker U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar and approximately $3 million of lower manufacturing costs during the current period as a result of cost reduction initiatives, including restructuring and integration activities in connection with the Arrow acquisition and $3 million lower expenses related to the remediation of FDA regulatory issues, were more than offset by approximately $13 million higher spending on sales, marketing, administrative and research and development activities.
Aerospace
Aerospace Segment revenues increased 30% in the second quarter of 2010 to $48.0 million, from $37.0 million in the same period in 2009 and increased 5% for the first six months of 2010 to $84.9 million, from $80.7 million in the first six months of 2009. During the second quarter, core revenue increased 32% while currency movements decreased sales 2%. Higher sales of (i) wide-body cargo handling systems to aircraft manufacturers, (ii) cargo systems for aftermarket conversions, (iii) cargo system spare components and repairs, (iv) actuation products, and (v) cargo containers were somewhat offset by lower sales of narrow-body cargo handling systems as conditions in the commercial aviation sector begins to show signs of recovery. For the first six months of 2010, core revenue increased 4% and currency movements increased sales 1% compared to the same period of 2009. The core revenue growth is due principally to higher sales of wide-body cargo handling systems and actuation products, which were somewhat offset by lower sales of narrow-body cargo handling systems, cargo containers and cargo system spare components and repairs.
Segment operating profit increased 641% in the second quarter of 2010 to $7.5 million, compared to $1.0 million in the same period of 2009, and increased 129% for the first six months of 2010 to $9.3 million, compared to $4.1 million for the first six months of 2009. The increase in operating profit for the second quarter was primarily due to (i) higher volumes across nearly all product lines, (ii) a favorable mix of higher margin multi-deck wide-body cargo handling systems and cargo system spare components and repairs, and (iii) approximately $1.2 million of write-down of certain actuation products to net realizable value during the second quarter of 2009. The higher operating profit for the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009 is a result of essentially the same factors that impacted the second quarter when compared to the second quarter of 2009.
Commercial
Commercial Segment revenues increased approximately 26% in the second quarter of 2010 to $55.3 million, from $43.9 million in the same period last year. Core revenue growth of approximately 25% and currency movements of 1% accounted for the increase in sales. Sales of marine products to OEM manufacturers for the recreational boat market and spare parts in the marine aftermarket increased approximately 30% while sales of the modern burner unit to the U.S. Military were down approximately 5%. Higher sales of Marine products are indicative of improved conditions in that sector compared to the significantly depressed conditions that existed during the same period of a year ago.
Commercial Segment revenues increased approximately 19% in the first six months of 2010 to $96.0 million, from $80.5 million in the same period last year, 21% of which is due to an increase in core revenue, 1% due to currency movements, partially offset by the impact from the divestiture of a marine product line in the first quarter of 2009 (3%). Core revenue growth is primarily attributable to 25% higher sales of marine products to OEM manufacturers for the recreational boat market and spare parts in the marine aftermarket, partially offset by 3% lower sales of heaters and burner units.

Table of Contents

During the second quarter of 2010, operating profit in the Commercial Segment increased 128% to $7.5 million, compared to $3.3 million in the second quarter of 2009. The trend in operating income was primarily the result of $11.3 million in higher sales volumes, as well as lower raw material costs, lower factory costs and improved factory efficiencies of approximately $1.3 million.
For the first six months of 2010, Commercial Segment operating income increased 160% to $9.4 million, compared to $3.6 million for the same period last year. This increase principally was due to $15.5 million in higher sales volumes of marine products to OEM manufacturers for the recreational boat market and spare parts in the marine aftermarket, as well as lower raw material costs, lower factory costs and improved factory efficiencies of approximately $2.8 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating activities from continuing operations provided net cash of approximately $100.2 million during the first six months of 2010. Year over year cash flow from operating activities increased $127.9 million from the first six months of 2009. The increase is due to lower tax payments in 2010 primarily related to the absence of the $97 million tax payment in 2009 related to the sale of the ATI businesses, a tax refund of $59.5 million, lower interest payments as a result of lower average outstanding debt and lower payments for restructuring and integration programs. The increase was partly offset by a decrease of $39.7 million that resulted from the adoption of an amendment to Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC topic 860”) in the first quarter of 2010. Specifically, upon adoption of the amendment, the accounts receivable that we previously treated as sold and removed from the balance sheet under our securitization program are now required to be accounted for as secured borrowings and reflected as short-term debt on our balance sheet. The effect of the amendment is reflected in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows under financing activities in the increase (decrease) in notes payable and current borrowings and under operating activities in the accounts receivable use of cash.
Investing activities from continuing operations provided net cash of $59.3 million during the first six months of 2010, reflecting $24.7 million in proceeds from the sale of SSI and $50.0 million from the sale of Heavy Lift, partly offset by capital expenditures of $15.3 million.
Financing activities from continuing operations used net cash of $44.2 million during the first six months of 2010 due to the payments of $64.2 million of long-term borrowings and $27.1 million of dividends, partly offset by the $39.7 million effect of adopting the amendment to ASC topic 860. This amendment is reflected in the $39.7 million increase (decrease) in notes payable and current borrowings source of cash reflecting the securitization program as a secured borrowing.
In 2007, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $300 million of our outstanding common stock. Repurchases of our stock under the Board authorization may be made from time to time in the open market and may include privately-negotiated transactions as market conditions warrant and subject to regulatory considerations. The stock repurchase program has no expiration date and our ability to execute on the program will depend on, among other factors, cash requirements for acquisitions, cash generation from operations, debt repayment obligations, market conditions and regulatory requirements. In addition, our senior loan agreements limit the aggregate amount of share repurchases and other restricted payments we may make to $75 million per year in the event our consolidated leverage ratio exceeds 3.5 to 1. Accordingly, these provisions may limit our ability to repurchase shares under this Board authorization. Through June 27, 2010, no shares have been purchased under this Board authorization.

Our senior credit agreement and senior note agreements, which we refer to as the “senior loan agreements,” contain covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict our ability, and the ability of our subsidiaries, to incur debt, create liens, consolidate, merge or dispose of certain assets, make certain investments, engage in acquisitions, pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of capital stock and enter into swap agreements. These agreements also require us to maintain a Consolidated Leverage Ratio (generally, Consolidated Total Indebtedness to Consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the senior credit agreement) and a Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio (generally, Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Interest Expense, each as defined in the senior credit agreement) at specified levels as of the last day of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or nearest to the end of each calendar quarter, calculated pursuant to the definitions and methodology set forth in the senior credit agreement.
As of June 27, 2010, the aggregate amount of debt maturing for each year is as follows (dollars in millions):
         
2010
  $ 41.4  
2011
    145.0  
2012
    756.6  
2013
     
2014
    136.5  
2015 and thereafter
    90.1  
We believe that our cash flow from operations and our ability to access additional funds through credit facilities will enable us to fund our operating requirements and capital expenditures and meet debt obligations. As of June 27, 2010, we had no outstanding borrowings and approximately $5 million in outstanding standby letters of credit issued under our $400 million revolving credit facility. Depending on conditions in the capital markets and other factors, we will from time to time consider other financing transactions, the proceeds of which could be used to refinance current indebtedness or for other purposes.
Potential Tax Legislation
President Obama and the U.S. Treasury Department proposed, on May 5, 2009, changing certain tax rules for U.S. corporations doing business outside the United States. The proposed changes would limit the ability of U.S. corporations to deduct expenses attributable to foreign earnings, modify the foreign tax credit rules and further restrict the ability of U.S. corporations to transfer funds between foreign subsidiaries without triggering U.S. income tax. It is unclear whether these proposed tax reforms will be enacted or, if enacted, what the ultimate scope of the reforms will be. Depending on their content, such reforms, if enacted, could have an adverse effect on our future operating results.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no significant changes in market risk for the quarter ended June 27, 2010. See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On October 11, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary, Arrow International, Inc. (“Arrow”), received a corporate warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The letter expressed concerns with Arrow’s quality systems, including complaint handling, corrective and preventive action, process and design validation, inspection and training procedures. It also advised that Arrow’s corporate-wide program to evaluate, correct and prevent quality system issues had been deficient.
The Company developed a comprehensive plan to correct these previously-identified regulatory issues and further improve overall quality systems and has substantially implemented the measures outlined in the plan. From the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2010, the FDA reinspected the Arrow facilities covered by the corporate warning letter and Arrow has responded to the observations issued by the FDA as a result of those inspections. In the third quarter of 2010, Arrow began submitting requests for certificates to foreign governments, or CFGs, to the FDA for review, and recently received approval on one of its requests. The Company believes that the FDA’s approval of the CFG is a clear indication that Arrow has substantially corrected the quality system issues identified in the corporate warning letter. The Company has now submitted all of its currently eligible CFG requests to the FDA for review and currently anticipates receiving the FDA’s approval with respect to most of these requests in the third quarter of 2010.
While the Company continues to believe it has substantially remediated the issues raised in the corporate warning letter through the corrective actions taken to date, the corporate warning letter remains in place pending final resolution of all outstanding issues, which the Company is actively working with the FDA to resolve. If the Company’s remedial actions are not satisfactory to the FDA, the Company may have to devote additional financial and human resources to its efforts, and the FDA may take further regulatory actions against the Company.
In addition, we are a party to various lawsuits and claims arising in the normal course of business. These lawsuits and claims include actions involving product liability, intellectual property, employment and environmental matters. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no significant changes in risk factors for the quarter ended June 27, 2010. See the information set forth in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Not applicable.
