Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Unaudited

Note 1—Business and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Description of Business

On March 2, 2020, Cott Corporation completed the acquisition of Primo Water Corporation (“Legacy Primo” and such transaction, the “Legacy Primo Acquisition”). In connection with the closing of the Legacy Primo Acquisition, Cott Corporation changed its corporate name to Primo Water Corporation and its ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange and Toronto Stock Exchange to “PRMW”. The Legacy Primo Acquisition is consistent with our strategy of transitioning to a pure-play water solutions provider.

As used herein, “Primo,” “the Company,” “our Company,” “Primo Water Corporation,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refers to Primo Water Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries. Primo is a leading pure-play water solutions provider in North America, Europe and Israel. Primo operates largely under a recurring razor/razorblade revenue model. The razor in Primo’s revenue model is its industry leading line-up of sleek and innovative water dispensers, which are sold through ~~major~~ retailers and online at various price ~~points or leased to customers.~~points. The dispensers help increase household penetration, which drives recurring purchases of Primo’s razorblade offering. Primo’s razorblade offering is comprised of Water Direct, Water Exchange, and Water Refill. Through its Water Direct business, Primo delivers sustainable hydration solutions across its 21-country footprint direct to the customer’s door, whether at home or to commercial businesses. Through its Water Exchange and Water Refill businesses, Primo offers pre-filled and reusable containers at over 13,000 locations and water refill units at approximately 22,000 locations, respectively. Primo also offers water filtration units across its 21-country footprint representing a top five position.

Primo’s water solutions expand consumer access to purified, spring and mineral water to promote a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle while simultaneously reducing plastic waste and pollution. Primo is committed to its water stewardship standards and is proud to partner with the International Bottled Water Association in North America as well as with ~~Water coolers~~Watercoolers Europe, which ensure strict adherence to safety, quality, sanitation and regulatory standards for the benefit of consumer protection. During 2020, our U.S. operations achieved a carbon neutral certification under the CarbonNeutral Protocol, an international standard administered by Natural Capital Partners. This certification is in addition to the certifications in our European operations where we have maintained carbon neutrality for the past nine consecutive years in many of our markets.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations for the interim periods reported and of our financial condition as of the date of the interim balance sheet have been included. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 (our ~~“2019~~“2020 Annual Report”). This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the annual audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes in our ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report. The accounting policies used in these interim Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those used in the annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

The presentation of these interim Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes.

~~Changes in Presentation~~

On February 28, 2020, we completed the sale of our coffee, tea and extract solutions business, S. & D. Coffee, Inc. (“S&D”) for consideration of $405.0 million paid at closing in cash, with customary post-closing working capital adjustments, which were resolved in June 2020 by payment of $1.5 million from the Company to the purchasers of S&D. As a result of this transaction representing a strategic shift in our operations, the Company has reclassified the financial results of our discontinued operations to net (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019. The assets and liabilities associated with S&D have been reflected as current and long-term assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 28, 2019. Cash flows from our discontinued operations are presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements are presented on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise noted. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on discontinued operations.

~~On March 2, 2020, we completed the Legacy Primo Acquisition. This business was added to our North America reporting segment (described below).~~

During the second quarter of 2020, we implemented a restructuring program intended to optimize synergies from the Company’s transition to a pure-play water company following the Legacy Primo Acquisition and, as a result, reorganized into 2 reporting segments: North America (which includes our DS Services of America, Inc. (“DSS”), Aquaterra Corporation (“Aquaterra”), Mountain Valley Spring Company (“Mountain Valley”) and Legacy Primo businesses) and Rest of World (which includes our Eden Springs Nederland B.V. (“Eden”), Aimia Foods Limited (“Aimia”), Decantae Mineral Water Limited (“Decantae”) and John Farrer & Company Limited (“Farrers”) businesses). Our corporate oversight function and other miscellaneous expenses are aggregated and included in the All Other category. Segment reporting results have been recast to reflect these changes for all periods presented.

~~Impact of the~~ COVID-19 Pandemic

~~The outbreak of~~In response to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) had a significant impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020. In response to COVID-19, authorities in many of the markets in which we operate have implemented numerous measures to stall the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, curfews, shelter in place orders, and business shutdowns. These measures have impacted and will further impact us, our customers, employees, distributors, suppliers and other third parties with whom we do business. There is considerable uncertainty regarding how these measures and future measures in response to the pandemic, will impact our business in the future, including whether they will result in further changes in demand for our services and products, further increases in operating costs (whether as a result of changes to our supply chain or increases in employee costs or otherwise), and how they will further impact our supply chain, each or all of which can impact our ability to make, manufacture, distribute and sell our products. In addition, measures that impact our ability to access our offices, plants, warehouses, distribution centers or other facilities, or that impact the ability of our customers, employees, distributors, suppliers and other third parties to do the same, may impact the availability of our and their employees, many of whom are not able to perform their job functions remotely.

~~In response to COVID-19,~~ certain government authorities have enacted programs which provide various economic stimulus measures, including several tax provisions. Among the business tax provisions is the deferral of certain payroll and other tax remittances to future years and wage subsidies as reimbursement for a portion of certain furloughed employees’ salaries. During the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, we received wage subsidies under these programs totaling ~~$3.4~~$1.4 million. We review our eligibility for these programs for each qualifying period and account for such wage subsidies on an accrual basis when the conditions for eligibility are met. ~~The Company has~~We have adopted an accounting policy to present wage subsidies as a reduction of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. In addition, deferred payroll and other taxes totaling ~~$6.3~~$8.6 million and $9.0 million were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and ~~$2.9~~$7.5 million ~~were~~was included in other long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets as of ~~June 27, 2020.~~

~~During the three months ended June 27, 2020, we recorded a total of $115.2 million of non-cash impairment charges related to goodwill~~April 3, 2021 and intangible assets. See goodwill and intangible asset impairment information below. The impairment charges were primarily driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and revised projections of future operating results.

In addition, on June 11, 2020, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a plan intended to optimize synergies from the Company’s transition to a pure-play water company following the Legacy Primo Acquisition and to mitigate the negative financial and operational impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including implementing headcount reductions and furloughs in our North America and Rest of World reporting segments (“2020 Restructuring Plan”). When we implement these programs, we incur various charges, including severance, asset impairments, and other employment related costs. In connection with the 2020 Restructuring Plan, we expect to incur approximately $19.0 million in severance costs, all of which are expected to result in cash expenditures and are expected to be fully paid by the end of 2020. All costs incurred by the 2020 Restructuring Plan are included in SG&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

~~The following table summarizes restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020:~~

For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended
(in millions of U.S. dollars) June 27, 2020 June 27, 2020
North America $ 2.3 $ 2.3
Rest of World 6.6 6.6
Total $ 8.9 $ 8.9

~~The following table summarizes our restructuring liability as of June 27, 2020, along with charges to costs and expenses and cash payments:~~

Restructuring Liability
(in millions of U.S. dollars) Balance at December 28, 2019 Charges to Costs and Expenses Cash Payments Balance at June 27, 2020
North America $ — $ 2.3 $ (2.3) $ —
Rest of World — 6.6 (0.8) 5.8
Total $ — $ 8.9 $ (3.1) $ 5.8

During the three and six months ended June 27, 2020 we also incurred $6.6 million and $7.9 million, respectively, in other COVID-19 related costs. Other COVID-19 related costs primarily include front-line incentives paid and costs incurred for supplies.January 2, 2021, respectively.

Significant Accounting Policies

Included in Note 1 of our ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report is a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies. Provided below is a summary of additional accounting policies that are significant to the financial results of the Company.

Cost of sales

We record costs associated with the manufacturing of our products in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs incurred to store, prepare and move products between production facilities or from production facilities to branch locations or storage facilities are recorded in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs incurred to deliver products from our North America and Rest of World reporting segment branch locations to the end-user consumer of those products are recorded in SG&A expenses. All other costs incurred in the shipment of products from our production facilities to customer locations are reflected in cost of sales. Shipping and handling costs included in SG&A expenses were ~~$99.8~~$110.1 million and ~~$219.8~~$120.0 million for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27,~~April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, ~~respectively, and $120.5 million and $235.5 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019,~~ respectively. Finished goods inventory costs include the cost of direct labor and materials and the applicable share of overhead expense chargeable to production.

~~Allowance for Credit Losses~~

We estimate an allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, adverse situations that may affect a customer's ability to pay, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts and current economic outlook. Customer demographics, such as large commercial customers as compared to small businesses or individual customers, and the customer’s geographic market are also considered when estimating credit losses. Historical loss experience was based on actual loss rates over a one year period. Additionally, we evaluate current conditions and review third-party economic forecasts on a quarterly basis to determine the impact on the allowance for credit losses. The assumptions used in determining an estimate of credit losses are inherently subjective and actual results may differ significantly from estimated reserves.

~~Goodwill~~

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair value of the net assets acquired. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on the first day of the fourth quarter, based on our reporting unit carrying values, calculated as total assets less non-interest bearing liabilities, as of the end of the third quarter, or more frequently if we determine a triggering event has occurred during the year. During the second quarter of 2020, given the general deterioration in economic and market conditions in which we operate arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, we identified a triggering event indicating possible impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, as further described below. We did not identify impairment of our property, plant and equipment, lease-related right-of-use assets, or long-lived assets.

The Company operates through 2 operating segments: North America and Rest of World. These 2 operating segments are also reportable segments. We evaluate goodwill for impairment on a reporting unit basis, which is an operating segment or a level below an operating segment, referred to as a component. A component of an operating segment is a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and management regularly reviews the operating results of that component. However, two or more components of an operating segment can be aggregated and deemed a single reporting unit if the components have similar economic characteristics. Our North America operating segment was determined to have 3 components: DSS, Mountain Valley, and Aquaterra. We have determined that DSS and Aquaterra have similar economic characteristics and have aggregated them as a single reporting unit for the purpose of testing goodwill for impairment (“DSSAqua”). Our Rest of World operating segment was determined to have 4 components: Eden, Aimia, Decantae, and Farrers, none of which have similar economic characteristics. We have thus determined our reporting units are DSSAqua, Mountain Valley, Eden, Aimia, Decantae, and Farrers.

Due to the triggering event identified above arising from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we first performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of these reporting units exceeded their respective carrying values. Based on this qualitative assessment, we determined that it was more likely than not that the fair value of our Eden, Aimia, Decantae, and Farrers reporting units did not exceed their respective carrying values. As a result, we performed an interim quantitative impairment test as of June 27, 2020 on these reporting units.

We determined the fair value of the reporting units being evaluated using a mix of the income approach (which is based on the discounted cash flows of the reporting unit) and the guideline public company approach. We weighted the income approach and the guideline public company approach at 50% each to determine the fair value of the reporting unit. We believe using a combination of these approaches provides a more accurate valuation because it incorporates the expected cash generation of the Company in addition to how a third-party market participant would value the reporting unit. As the business is assumed to continue in perpetuity, the discounted future cash flows includes a terminal value. Critical assumptions used in our valuation of the Eden reporting unit included the anticipated future cash flows, a weighted-average terminal growth rate of 1.5% and a discount rate of 9.5%. Critical assumptions used in our valuation of the Aimia, Decantae, and Farrers reporting units included a weighted-average terminal growth rate of 2.0% and a discount rate of 11.5%. The anticipated future cash flows assumption reflects projected revenue growth rates, operating profit margins and capital expenditures. The terminal growth rate assumption incorporated into the discounted cash flow calculation reflects our long-term view of the market and industry, projected changes in the sale of our products, pricing of such products and operating profit margins. The discount rate was determined using various factors and sensitive assumptions, including bond yields, size premiums and tax rates. This rate was based on the weighted average cost of capital a market participant would use if evaluating the reporting unit as an investment. These assumptions are considered significant unobservable inputs and represent our best estimate of assumptions that market participants would use to determine the fair value of the respective reporting units. The key inputs into the discounted cash flow analysis were consistent with market data, where available, indicating that the assumptions used were in a reasonable range of observable market data.

Based on the quantitative assessment including consideration of the sensitivity of the assumptions made and methods used to determine fair value, industry trends and other relevant factors, we noted that the estimated fair value of the Aimia reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 23.5%. Therefore, 0 goodwill impairment charge was recorded for the Aimia reporting unit. Based on the quantitative assessment including consideration of the sensitivity of the assumptions made and methods used to determine fair value, industry trends and other relevant factors, we determined that goodwill was impaired for the Eden, Decantae, and Farrers reporting units and recognized impairment charges of $103.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The impairment charges are included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

~~The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill on a reporting segment basis for the six months ended June 27, 2020, are as follows:~~

Reporting Segment

Accumulated impairment losses — (104.1) (104.1)

$ 967.0 $ 277.9 $ 1,244.9

~~Intangible Assets~~

Our intangible assets with indefinite lives relate to trademarks acquired in the acquisition of businesses, and there are no legal, regulatory, contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors that limit the useful life of these intangible assets. Our trademarks with indefinite lives are not amortized, but rather are tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if we determine a triggering event has occurred during the year.

As a result of the triggering event described above arising from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we also performed recoverability tests on our intangible assets, primarily trademarks, within each of our reporting segments as of June 27, 2020. We assessed qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances indicated that it was more likely than not that the fair value of our trademarks with indefinite lives were less than their respective carrying value. The qualitative factors we assessed included macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors that would have a negative effect on earnings and cash flows, overall financial performance compared with forecasted projections in prior periods, and other relevant events, the impact of which are all significant judgments and estimates. Based on this qualitative assessment, we determined that impairment was more likely than not with the trademarks with indefinite lives associated with our Eden and Aquaterra businesses. As a result, we performed an interim quantitative impairment test as of June 27, 2020 on these intangible assets.

To determine the fair value of the trademarks with indefinite lives associated with our Eden and Aquaterra businesses, we use a relief from royalty method of the income approach, which calculates a fair value royalty rate that is applied to revenue forecasts associated with those trademarks. The resulting cash flows are discounted using a rate to reflect the risk of achieving the projected royalty savings attributable to the trademarks. The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these trademarks are subjective and require significant management judgment, including estimated future revenues, the fair value royalty rate (which is estimated to be a reasonable market royalty charge that would be charged by a licensor of the trademarks) and the risk adjusted discount rate. Based on our impairment test, we determined the trademarks with indefinite lives associated with our Eden and Aquaterra businesses were impaired and recognized impairment charges of $9.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively. The impairment charges are included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

Recently adopted ~~accounting pronouncements~~

~~Update~~ ~~ASU 2016-13~~ – Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326), Update ASU 2019-05 – Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Targeted Transition Relief (Topic 326) and Update ASU 2019-11 – Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326)

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended its guidance to measure all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Entities will now use forward-looking information to better form their credit loss estimates. The amended guidance also requires enhanced disclosures to help financial statement users better understand significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality and underwriting standards of an entity’s portfolio. In May 2019, the FASB amended the original guidance by providing an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option for certain financial instruments previously measured at amortized cost basis. In November 2019, the FASB provided additional guidance around how to report expected recoveries. For public entities, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted.

Effective December 29, 2019, we adopted the guidance in this amendment using the modified retrospective transition method. The adoption of this new standard, with the impact being the increase in allowance for doubtful accounts related to our trade accounts receivable, resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment of $3.6 million recognized to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company will continue to actively monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on expected credit losses.

~~Update ASU 2018-13 – Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)~~

In August 2018, the FASB amended its guidance on disclosure requirements for fair value measurement. The update amends existing fair value measurement disclosure requirements by adding, changing, or removing certain disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The standard also allows for early adoption of any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of this update while delaying adoption of the additional disclosures until their effective date. We adopted the guidance in this amendment effective December 29, 2019 prospectively. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Update ASU 2018-15 – Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)~~

In August 2018, the FASB amended its guidance on a customer’s accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This update aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. This update also requires customers to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the guidance in this amendment effective December 29, 2019. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Update ASU 2019-04 – Codification Improvements to Topic 326—Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, Topic 815—Derivative and Hedging, and Topic 825—Financial Instruments~~

In April 2019, the FASB amended its guidance to clarify and provide narrow-scope amendments for these three recent standards related to financial instruments accounting. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted the guidance in this amendment effective December 29, 2019. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Update ASU 2019-12 – Income Taxes—Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)~~

In December 2019, the FASB amended its guidance to remove certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the guidance in this amendment effective December 29, 2019. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Update ASU 2020-03 – Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments~~

In March 2020, the FASB amended its guidance to clarify or improve the financial instrument topics in the existing guidance. These amendments make the guidance easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. Certain amendments in this update are effective upon issuance of this update. The remaining amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the guidance in this amendment effective December 29, 2019. Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Update ASU 2018-14 – Compensation—Retirement Benefits—Defined Benefit Plans—General (Subtopic 715-20)

In August 2018, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended its guidance on disclosure requirements for defined benefit plans. The update amends existing annual disclosure requirements applicable to all employers that sponsor defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans by adding, removing, and clarifying certain disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and are to be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. ~~We are currently assessing~~Adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact ~~of adoption of this standard~~ on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Update ASU 2020-04 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)

In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions to account for contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or any other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This guidance is effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions through ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021 but will continue to evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period as circumstances evolve.

Note 2—Discontinued Operations

OnIn February ~~28,~~ 2020, the Company completed the sale of our coffee, tea and extract solutions business, S. & D. Coffee, Inc. (“S&D&D”) to Westrock Coffee Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Westrock”), pursuant to which Westrock acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of S&D from the Company (“S&D Divestiture”). The consideration was $405.0 million paid at closing in cash, with customary post-closing working capital adjustments, which were resolved in June 2020 by payment of $1.5 million from the Company to Westrock.

The Company used the proceeds of the S&D Divestiture to finance a portion of the acquisition of Primo Water Corporation (“Legacy Primo” and such transaction, the “Legacy Primo ~~Acquisition.~~Acquisition”). See Note 54 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Legacy Primo Acquisition.

Note 4—3—Revenue

Our principal sources of revenue are from bottled water delivery direct to consumers primarily in North America and Europe and from providing multi-gallon purified bottled water, self-service refill drinking water and water dispensers through ~~major~~ retailers in North America. Revenue is recognized, net of sales returns, when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We measure revenue based on the consideration specified in the client arrangement, and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations in the client arrangement are satisfied. A performance obligation is a contractual promise to transfer a distinct service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Clients typically receive the benefit of our services as they are performed. Substantially all our ~~client~~customer contracts require that we be compensated for services performed to date. This may be upon shipment of goods or upon delivery to the customer, depending on contractual terms. Shipping and handling costs paid by the customer to us are included in revenue and costs incurred by us for shipping and handling activities that are performed after a customer obtains control of the product are accounted for as fulfillment costs. In addition, we exclude from net revenue and cost of sales taxes assessed by governmental authorities on revenue-producing transactions. Although we occasionally accept returns of products from our customers, historically returns have not been material.

Contract Estimates

The nature of certain of our contracts give rise to variable consideration including cash discounts, volume-based rebates, point of sale promotions, and other promotional discounts to certain customers. For all promotional programs and discounts, we estimate the rebate or discount that will be granted to the customer and record an accrual upon invoicing. These estimated rebates or discounts are included in the transaction price of our contracts with customers as a reduction to net revenues and are included as accrued sales incentives in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accrued sales incentives were ~~$6.1~~$10.6 million and ~~$7.0~~$9.9 million ~~at June 27, 2020~~on April 3, 2021 and ~~December 28, 2019,~~January 2, 2021, respectively.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts (i) with an original expected length of one year or less or (ii) for which we recognize revenue at the amount in which it has the right to invoice as the product is delivered.

Contract Balances

Contract liabilities relate primarily to advances received from our customers before revenue is recognized. These amounts are recorded as deferred revenue and are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The advances are expected to be earned as revenue within one year of receipt. Deferred revenues at ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 and ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 were ~~$20.3~~$14.2 million and ~~$23.6~~$11.7 million, respectively. The amount of revenue recognized in the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 that was included in the ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 deferred revenue balance was ~~$2.7 million and $13.8 million, respectively.~~$8.1 million.

Note 5—4—Acquisitions

Legacy Primo Acquisition

OnIn March 2, 2020, the Company completed the Legacy Primo Acquisition, adding North America’s leading single source provider of multi-gallon purified bottled water, self-service refill drinking water and water dispensers sold through major retailers to the Company’s catalog of ~~home~~residential and ~~office~~commercial bottled water delivery businesses in North America and Europe. Primo is a familiar name in sustainable water solutions that will help drive the visibility of our water businesses, moving us towards a pure-play water solutions company. The Legacy Primo Acquisition broadens our capabilities and our portfolio, creating new cross-selling opportunities and vertical integration across home and office delivery, retail, filtration, refill and exchange services. Integrating Legacy Primo with our DSS business will enable us to combine the expertise and innovation of these two growing companies with complementary business models. The integration gives us the ability to expand Legacy Primo’s products and services across our 21-country footprint.

The Legacy Primo Acquisition was structured as an exchange offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Legacy Primo for per-share consideration of (i) $14.00 in cash, (ii) 1.0229 ~~Cott Corporation~~ common shares plus cash in lieu of any fractional ~~Cott Corporation~~ common share, or (iii) $5.04 in cash and 0.6549 ~~Cott Corporation~~ common shares, at the election of Legacy Primo’s stockholders, subject to the proration procedures set forth in the merger agreement. Immediately following the consummation of the exchange offer, ~~Cott Corporation~~we indirectly acquired the remaining Legacy Primo shares through a merger between Legacy Primo and aone of our wholly-owned ~~subsidiary of Cott Corporation.~~

Measurement period adjustments recorded during the three months ended ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 include adjustments to property, plant & equipment and intangible assets based on results of the preliminary valuations, adjustments to operating and financing lease right-of-use assets and obligations based on a review of acquired leases, a deferred tax adjustment related to the ~~preliminary~~final valuation and an adjustment to accounts payable and accrued liabilities based on a ~~note receivable existing at~~review of the ~~acquisition date.~~respective fair value as of the date of the Legacy Primo Acquisition. The measurement period ~~adjustments~~adjustment did not have a material effect on our results of operations in prior periods.

The assets and liabilities acquired in the Legacy Primo Acquisition are recorded at their estimated fair values per preliminary valuations and management estimates and are subject to change when formal valuations and other studies are finalized. Estimated fair values for deferred tax balances are preliminary and are also subject to change based on the final valuation results. In addition, consideration for potential loss contingencies are still under review.

The amount of revenues and net income related to the Legacy Primo Acquisition included in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period from the Legacy Primo Acquisition date through June 27, 2020 were $116.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The Company incurred $2.9 million and $21.7 million of acquisition-related costs associated with the Legacy Primo Acquisition, which are included in acquisition and integration expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

~~Intangible Assets~~

In our determination of the fair value of intangible assets, we consider, among other factors, the best use of acquired assets, analysis of historical financial performance and estimates of future performance of the acquired business’ products. The estimated fair values of identified intangible assets are calculated considering both market participant expectations, using an income approach, as well as estimates and assumptions provided by Primo management and management of the acquired business. Assumptions include, but are not limited to, expected revenue growth, weighted-average terminal growth rates, risk adjusted discount rate and fair value royalty rate.

The estimated fair value of customer relationships represents future after-tax discounted cash flows that will be derived from sales to existing customers of the acquired business as of the date of acquisition.

The estimated fair value of trademarks and trade names represents the future projected cost savings associated with the premium and brand image obtained as a result of owning the trademark or trade name as opposed to obtaining the benefit of the trademark or trade name through a royalty or rental fee.

~~The following table sets forth the components of identified intangible assets associated with the Legacy Primo Acquisition and their estimated weighted average useful lives:~~


~~(in millions of U.S. dollars)~~	~~Estimated Fair Market Value~~		~~Estimated Useful Life~~
~~Customer relationships~~	$	~~236.3~~	~~26 years~~
~~Trade names~~	~~174.9~~		~~Indefinite~~
~~Software~~	~~1.5~~		~~3 years~~
~~Total~~	$	~~412.7~~

~~Goodwill~~

The principal factor that resulted in recognition of goodwill was the basis of the purchase price for the Legacy Primo Acquisition, in part, on cash flow projections assuming the reduction of administration costs and the integration of acquired customers and products into our operations, which is of greater value than on a standalone basis. The goodwill recognized as part of the Legacy Primo Acquisition was allocated to the North America reporting segment, a portion of which is expected to be tax deductible.

Note ~~6—Share-based Compensation~~

In the second quarter of 2020, we granted 118,059 common shares with an aggregate grant date fair value of approximately $1.3 million to the non-management members of our Board of Directors under the Amended and Restated Cott Corporation Equity Incentive Plan. The common shares were issued in consideration of the directors’ annual board retainer fee and are fully vested upon issuance.

In addition, in the second quarter of 2020, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “HRCC”) approved a bonus for a select group of associates that will be settled in fully vested common shares based on the closing share price on the date the achievement of the performance target described below is certified by the HRCC. The aggregate target payout of $2.4 million is based on (1) attainment of a specified percentage target under the Company's annual cash performance bonus plan for the DSS business, and (2) attainment of a specified annualized 2020 synergy target. This bonus is being accounted for as a liability-classified award with a performance condition. The final bonus payout will be based upon the performance percentage, which can range from 0% to 200% of the target payout. As of and for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020, the Company recorded $0.6 million of share-based compensation expense and a related accrued liability associated with these awards.

~~Note 7—~~5—Income Taxes

Income tax ~~benefit was $1.4 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $133.1 million for the three months ended June 27, 2020, as compared to income tax~~ expense ~~of $2.2 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of $4.9 million in the comparable prior year period. Income tax benefit~~ was $4.7 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of ~~$163.8~~$5.5 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, as compared to income tax ~~expense~~benefit of ~~$0.8~~$3.3 million on pre-tax loss from continuing operations of ~~$19.2~~$30.7 million in the comparable prior year period. The effective income tax rates for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 were ~~1.1% and 2.9%, respectively,~~(85.5)% compared to ~~44.9% and (4.2)%~~10.7% in the comparable prior year periods.

The effective tax ~~rates~~rate for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 varied from the effective tax ~~rates~~rate in the comparable prior year period due primarily to increased earnings in taxable jurisdictions.

The effective tax rate for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 29, 2019~~April 3, 2021 varied from the statutory tax rate due ~~primarily~~ to ~~impairment charges incurred~~losses in ~~the second quarter of 2020~~tax jurisdictions for which ~~minimal~~no tax benefit is ~~recognized.~~

~~The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted new Section 163(j) interest expense limitation rules on December 22, 2017. The rules were modified~~recognized due to existing valuation allowances, as well as income in ~~March 2020 by~~tax jurisdictions with tax rates lower than the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. On July 28, 2020, the U.S. Department of the Treasury released final regulations and new proposed regulations to provide interpretative guidance for the new Section 163(j) rules, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the final regulations in our 2021Canadian statutory tax year and do not currently plan to early adopt the proposed regulations. We are currently assessing the final and proposed regulations. However, we do not anticipate a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Common Shares~~

On December 11, 2019, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program for up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares over a 12-month period commencing on December 16, 2019 (the “Repurchase Plan”). We did 0t repurchase any outstanding common shares under the Repurchase Plan during the second quarter of 2020. For the six months ended June 27, 2020, we repurchased 2,316,835 common shares for $25.0 million through open market transactions under the Repurchase Plan. Shares purchased under the Repurchase Plan were subsequently canceled. There can be no assurance as to the precise number of shares, if any, that will be repurchased under the Repurchase Plan in the future, or the aggregate dollar amount of shares to be purchased in future periods. We may discontinue purchases at any time, subject to compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.

On March 2, 2020, the Company completed the Legacy Primo Acquisition, with 26,497,015 common shares issued at $14.25 per share to holders of Legacy Primo (see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements).

Net (Loss) Income per Common Share

Basic net (loss) income per common share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income ~~attributable to Primo Water Corporation~~ by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net (loss) income per common share is calculated by dividing net (loss) income ~~attributable to Primo Water Corporation~~ by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding adjusted to include the effect, if dilutive, of the exercise of in-the-money stock options, performance-based RSUs, and time-based RSUs during the periods presented. Set forth below is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator for the diluted net (loss) income per common share computations for the periods indicated:

Credit risk arises from the potential default of a customer in meeting its financial obligations to us. Concentrations of credit exposure may arise with a group of customers that have similar economic characteristics or that are located in the same geographic region. The ability of such customers to meet obligations would be similarly affected by changing economic, political or other conditions.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may affect the ability of such customers to meet obligations to us. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities in the markets in which we operate and other third parties in response to the pandemic.

~~Revolving Credit Facility and Liquidity~~

On March 6, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as parent borrower, Primo Water Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Cott Holdings Inc.) and Eden, each as subsidiary borrowers, certain other subsidiaries of the Company from time to time designated as subsidiary borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were used on the Closing Date to refinance in full and terminate our previously existing asset-based lending credit facility, governed by the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated January 30, 2019, by and among the Company, the other loan parties party thereto from time to time, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (as amended, the “ABL Credit Agreement”). Certain letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Credit Agreement were rolled over under the Revolving Credit Facility on the Closing Date. We incurred approximately $3.4 million of financing fees in connection with the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility was considered to be a modification of the ABL Credit Agreement under GAAP. These new financing fees along with $1.8 million of unamortized deferred costs of the ABL Credit Agreement are being amortized using the straight-line method over the duration of the Revolving Credit Facility.

As of June 27, 2020, the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were $206.0 million and were recorded in short-term borrowings on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Outstanding letters of credit totaled $44.7 million resulting in total utilization under the Revolving Credit Facility of $250.7 million. Accordingly, unused availability under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 27, 2020 amounted to $99.3 million.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either: (a) a euro currency rate as determined under the Credit Agreement, plus the applicable margin, or (b) a base rate equal to the highest of (i) Bank of America’s prime rate, (ii) 0.5% per annum above the federal funds rate, and (iii) the euro currency rate, as determined under the Credit Agreement, for a one month interest period, plus 1.0%, plus the applicable margin. Prior to delivery of financial statements and a compliance certificate for the full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, the applicable margin for euro currency rate loans will be 150 basis points and the applicable margin for base rate loans will be 50 basis points. Thereafter, the applicable margin for euro currency rate loans ranges from 137.5 to 200 basis points and the applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 37.5 to 100 basis points, in each case depending on our consolidated total leverage ratio. Unutilized commitments under the Credit Agreement are subject to a commitment fee ranging from 20 to 30 basis points per annum depending on our consolidated total leverage ratio, payable on a quarterly basis.

~~Affirmative Covenants and Ratios~~

The Credit Agreement has 2 financial covenants, a consolidated secured leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. The consolidated secured leverage ratio must not be more than 3.50 to 1.00, with an allowable temporary increase to 4.00 to 1.00 for the quarter in which the Company consummates a material acquisition with a price not less than $125.0 million, for three quarters. The interest coverage ratio must not be less than 3.00 to 1.00. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants as of June 27, 2020.

In addition, the Credit Agreement has certain non-financial covenants, such as covenants regarding indebtedness, investments, and asset dispositions. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of June 27, 2020.

Note ~~15—~~10—Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to various claims and legal proceedings with respect to matters such as governmental regulations and other actions arising out of the normal course of business. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

Also, the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection (the “Ministry”) has alleged that a non-profit recycling corporation, which collects and recycles bottles sold by manufacturers, including Eden, failed to meet recycling quotas in 2016, in violation of Israeli law. The law imposes liability directly on manufacturers, and the Ministry has asserted that the manufacturers involved with the corporation owe a fine. Eden received a notice from the Ministry on June 21, 2018. Eden has since undertaken an administrative appeal process and intends to proceed to litigation. Although we cannot predict the outcome of any potential proceedings at this stage, Eden may be subject to a fine in excess of $0.1 million. Management believes, however, that the resolution of this matter will not be material to our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

We had $~~44.7~~50.6 million in standby letters of credit outstanding as of ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 ($~~47.4~~50.6 million as of ~~December 28, 2019)~~January 2, 2021).

Guarantees

After the sale of our ~~legacy carbonated soft drink~~North America, United Kingdom and ~~juice~~Mexico business units (including the Canadian business) and our ~~RCI~~Royal Crown International finished goods export business in January 2018, we have continued to provide contractual payment guarantees to 32 third-party lessors of certain real property used in these businesses. The leases were conveyed to ~~Refresco~~the buyer as part of the sale, but our guarantee was not released by the landlord. The 32 lease agreements mature in 2027 ~~2028~~ and ~~2029.~~2028. The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments under the guarantee ofis approximately ~~$27.3~~$18.4 million as of ~~June 27, 2020 ($29.4 million—December 28, 2019)~~April 3, 2021, which was calculated based on the minimum lease payments of the leases over the remaining term of the agreements. The sale documents require ~~Refresco~~the buyer to pay all post-closing obligations under these conveyed leases, and to reimburse us if the landlord calls on a guarantee. ~~Refresco~~The buyer has also agreed to a covenant to negotiate with the landlords for a release of our guarantees. Discussions with the landlords are ongoing. We currently do not believe it is probable we would be required to perform under any of these guarantees or any of the underlying obligations.

Note ~~16—~~11—Fair Value Measurements

FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

•Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

•Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, short-term borrowings and long-term debt approximate their respective fair values, except as otherwise indicated. The carrying values and estimated fair values of our significant outstanding debt as of ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 and ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 were as follows:


		June 27, 2020						December 28, 2019							April 3, 2021				January 2, 2021

______________________

¹ The fair values were based on the trading levels and bid/offer prices observed by a market participant and are considered Level 2 financial instruments.

² Carrying value of our significant outstanding debt is net of unamortized debt issuance costs as of ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 and ~~December 28, 2019.~~January 2, 2021.

~~Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis~~

In addition to assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we are also required to measure certain items at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets can include goodwill, intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, lease-related right-of-use assets, and long-lived assets that have been reduced to fair value when they are held for sale. If certain triggering events occur, or if an annual impairment test is required, we would evaluate these non-financial assets for impairment. If an impairment were to occur, the asset would be recorded at the estimated fair value, using primarily unobservable Level 3 inputs.

During the second quarter of 2020, given the general deterioration in economic and market conditions in which we operate arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, we identified a triggering event indicating possible impairment of goodwill and intangible assets. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on goodwill and intangible asset impairment. We did not identify impairment of our property, plant and equipment, lease-related right-of-use assets, or long-lived assets.

Note ~~17—~~12—Subsequent Events

In July 2020, a settlement agreement was reached with Refresco, the buyer of both our legacy carbonated soft drink and juice business and our Cott Beverages LLC business. In exchange for a settlement of pending and future claims,On April 30, 2021, we issued $~~4.0~~750.0 million of 4.375% senior notes due April 30, 2029 (“2029 Notes”) to qualified purchasers in a private placement offering under Rule 144A under the ~~escrow funds~~Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. purchasers pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act and other applicable laws. The 2029 Notes were ~~released to Refresco.~~issued by our wholly-owned subsidiary Primo Water Holdings Inc. The ~~remaining~~2029 Notes are guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries that are currently obligors under the $~~8.4~~350.0 million ~~and~~senior secured revolving credit facility, the $~~0.5~~750.0 million of 5.500% senior notes due April 1, 2025 (“2025 Notes”) and the €450.0 million of 3.875% senior notes due October 31, 2028. The 2029 Notes will mature on April 30, 2029 and interest is payable semi-annually on April 30th and October 31st of each year commencing on October 31, 2021. The proceeds of the 2029 Notes, along with available cash on hand, were ~~released~~used to ~~us.~~redeem in full the 2025 Notes and pay related premiums, fees and expenses.

We incurred approximately $11.2 million of financing fees for the issuance of the 2029 Notes. The financing fees are being amortized using the effective interest method over an eight-year period, which represents the term to maturity of the 2029 Notes. The redemption of the 2025 Notes included $20.6 million in premium payments and accrued interest of $3.6 million.

On ~~August~~May 4, ~~2020,~~2021, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.06 per share on common shares, payable in cash on ~~September 2, 2020~~June 16, 2021 to ~~share owners~~shareowners of record at the close of business on ~~August 19, 2020.~~June 4, 2021.

On May 4, 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program for up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares over a 12-month period commencing on May 10, 2021.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to further the reader’s understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of our Company. It should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~December 28, 2019~~January 2, 2021 (our ~~“2019~~“2020 Annual Report”). These historical financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance. This discussion contains a number of forward-looking statements, all of which are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risks referred to under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in our ~~2019~~2020 Annual ~~Report and under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28, 2020.~~Report. As used herein, “Primo,” “the Company,” “Primo Water Corporation,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refers to Primo Water Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Overview

Primo is a leading pure-play water solutions provider in North America, Europe and Israel. Primo operates largely under a recurring razor/razorblade revenue model. The razor in Primo’s revenue model is its industry leading line-up of sleek and innovative water dispensers, which are sold through major retailers and online at various price points or leased to customers. The dispensers help increase household penetration, which drives recurring purchases of Primo’s razorblade offering. Primo’s razorblade offering is comprised of Water Direct, Water Exchange, and Water Refill. Through its Water Direct business, Primo delivers sustainable hydration solutions across its 21-country footprint direct to the customer’s door, whether at home or to commercial businesses. Through its Water Exchange and Water Refill businesses, Primo offers pre-filled and reusable containers at over 13,000 locations and water refill units at approximately 22,000 locations, respectively. Primo also offers water filtration units across its 21-country footprint representing a top five position.

The market in which we operate is subject to some seasonal variations. Our water delivery sales are generally higher during the warmer months. Our purchases of raw materials and related accounts payable fluctuate based upon the demand for our products. The seasonality of our sales volume causes our working capital needs to fluctuate throughout the year.

We conduct operations in countries involving transactions denominated in a variety of currencies. We are subject to currency exchange risks to the extent that our costs are denominated in currencies other than those in which we earn revenues. As our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies have had and will continue to have an impact on our results of operations.

During the second quarter of 2020, we implemented a restructuring program intended to optimize synergies from the Company’s transition to a pure-play water company following the Legacy Primo Acquisition (defined below) and, as a result, reorganized into two reporting segments: North America (which includes our DS Services of America, Inc. (“DSS”), Aquaterra Corporation (“Aquaterra”), Mountain Valley Spring Company (“Mountain Valley”) and Legacy Primo (defined below) businesses) and Rest of World (which includes our Eden Springs Nederland B.V. (“Eden”), Aimia Foods Limited (“Aimia”), Decantae Mineral Water Limited (“Decantae”) and John Farrer & Company Limited (“Farrers”) businesses). Our corporate oversight function and other miscellaneous expenses are aggregated and included in the All Other category. Segment reporting results have been recast to reflect these changes for all periods presented.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Our global operations expose us to risks associated with the ~~COVID-19~~coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, which has resulted in challenging operating environments. COVID-19 has spread across the globe to all of the countries in which we operate. Authorities in many of these markets have implemented numerous measures to stall the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, curfews, shelter in place orders, and business shutdowns. These measures have impacted and will ~~further~~continue to impact us, our customers, employees, distributors, suppliers and other third parties with whom we do business. There is considerable uncertainty regarding the extent and duration of any impact that these measures and future measures in response to the pandemic may have on our business, including whether they will result in further changes in demand for our services and products, further increases in operating costs (whether as a result of changes to our supply chain or increases in employee costs or otherwise), and how they will further impact our supply chain, each or all of which can impact our ability to make, manufacture, distribute and sell our products. In addition, measures that impact our ability to access our offices, plants, warehouses, distribution centers or other facilities, or that impact the ability of our customers, employees, distributors, suppliers and other third parties to do the same, may impact the availability of our and their employees, many of whom are not able to perform their job functions remotely.

We have implemented safety protocols, including implementing social distancing guidelines, staggering employee shifts, providing our associates with personal protective equipment, and continuing to allow members of our team to work from home where possible. We have been working and will continue to work closely with our business partners on contingency planning in an effort to maintain supply. To date, we have not experienced a material disruption to our operations or supply chain.

While we continue to develop and implement health and safety protocols, business continuity plans and crisis management protocols and have taken other operational actions in an effort to try to mitigate the negative impact of COVID-19 to our employees and our business, the extent of the impact of the pandemic on our business and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to accurately predict and that all will vary by market, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, global economic conditions during and after the pandemic, governmental actions that have been taken, or may be taken in the future, in response to the pandemic, successful distribution and efficacy of the COVID-19 vaccine and changes in customer behavior in response to the pandemic, some of which may be more than just temporary.

As we deliver bottled water to residential and business customers across a 21-country footprint and provide multi-gallon purified bottled water, self-service refill drinking water and water dispensers to customers through major retailers in North America, the profile of the services we provide and the products we sell, and the amount of revenue attributable to such services and products, varies by jurisdiction. Changes in demand as a result of COVID-19 will vary in scope and timing across these markets. For example, to date, we have seen an increase in volumes in our residential water direct business and a decrease in volumes in our commercial water direct business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Any continued economic uncertainty can adversely affect our customers’ financial condition, resulting in an inability to pay for our services or products, reduced or canceled orders of our services or products, or our business partners’ inability to supply us with the items necessary for us to make, manufacture, distribute or sell our products. Such adverse changes in our customers’ or business partners’ financial condition may also result in our recording impairment charges for our inability to recover or collect any accounts receivable. In addition, economic uncertainty associated with COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in volatility in the global capital and credit markets, which can impair our ability to access these markets on terms commercially acceptable to us, or at all.

In response to COVID-19, certain government authorities have enacted programs which provide various economic stimulus measures, including several tax provisions. Among the business tax provisions is the deferral of certain payroll and other tax remittances to future years and wage subsidies as reimbursement for a portion of certain furloughed employees’ salaries. During the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, we received wage subsidies under these programs totaling ~~$3.4~~$1.4 million. We review our eligibility for these programs for each qualifying period and account for such wage subsidies on an accrual basis when the conditions for eligibility are met. ~~The Company has~~We have adopted an accounting policy to present wage subsidies as a reduction of selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses. In addition, deferred payroll and other taxes totaling ~~$6.3~~$8.6 million and $9.0 million and were included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and ~~$2.9~~$7.5 million ~~were~~was included in other long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance ~~Sheet~~Sheets as of ~~June 27, 2020.~~

~~During the three~~April 3, 2021 and six months ended June 27, 2020, we recorded a total of $115.2 million of non-cash impairment charges related to goodwill and intangible assets. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on goodwill and intangible asset impairment. The impairment charges were primarily driven by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and revised projections of future operating results.

Additionally, on June 11, 2020, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a plan intended to optimize synergies from the Company’s transition to a pure-play water company following the Legacy Primo Acquisition and to mitigate the negative financial and operational impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including implementing headcount reductions and furloughs in our North America and Rest of World reporting segments (“2020 Restructuring Plan”). When we implement these programs, we incur various charges, including severance, asset impairments, and other employment related costs. In connection with the 2020 Restructuring Plan, we expect to incur approximately $19.0 million in severance costs, all of which are expected to result in cash expenditures and are expected to be fully paid by the end of 2020. All costs incurred by the 2020 Restructuring Plan are included in SG&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on restructuring charges incurred during the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

January 2, 2021, respectively.

Divestiture, Acquisition and Financing Transactions

OnIn February ~~28,~~ 2020, we completed the sale of our coffee, tea and extract solutions business, S. & D. Coffee, Inc. (“S&D”), to Westrock Coffee Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Westrock”), pursuant to which Westrock acquired all of the issued and outstanding equity of S&D from the Company (“S&D Divestiture”). The consideration was $405.0 million paid at closing in cash, with customary post-closing working capital adjustments, which were resolved in June 2020 by payment of $1.5 million from ~~the Company~~us to Westrock. We used the proceeds of the transaction to finance a portion of the Legacy Primo ~~Acquisition.~~Acquisition (defined below).

As a result of the S&D Divestiture, the operating results associated with S&D have been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are those of our continuing operations unless otherwise indicated. For additional information regarding our discontinued operations, see Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

OnIn March 2, 2020, ~~pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into on January 13, 2020, Cott Corporation~~we completed the acquisition of Primo Water Corporation (“Legacy Primo” and such transaction, the “Legacy Primo Acquisition”). The aggregate consideration paid in the Legacy Primo Acquisition was approximately $798.2 million and includes $377.6 million of our common shares issued by us to holders of Legacy Primo common stock, $216.1 million paid in cash by us to holders of Legacy Primo common stock, $196.9 million of cash paid to retire outstanding indebtedness on behalf of Legacy Primo, $4.7 million to settle a pre-existing liability and $2.9 million in fair value of replacement common share options and restricted stock units for vested Legacy Primo awards. The Legacy Primo Acquisition is consistent with our strategy of transitioning to a pure-play water solutions provider.

In connection with the closing of the Legacy Primo Acquisition, ~~Cott Corporation~~we changed ~~its~~our corporate name to Primo Water Corporation and ~~its~~our ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange and Toronto Stock Exchange to “PRMW”.

OnIn March 6, 2020, ~~(the “Closing Date”),~~ we entered into a credit agreement among the Company, as parent borrower, Primo Water Holdings Inc. ~~(formerly known as Cott Holdings Inc.)~~ and Eden Springs Nederland B.V., each as subsidiary borrowers, certain other subsidiaries of the Company from time to time designated as subsidiary borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).

The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate committed amount of $350.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which may be increased by incremental credit extensions from time to time in the form of term loans or additional revolving credit commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility ~~will mature~~has a five ~~years from the Closing Date~~year maturity date and includes letter of credit and swing line loan sub facilities. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were used ~~on the Closing Date~~ to refinance in full and terminate our previously existing asset-based lending credit facility.

On April 30, 2021, we issued $750.0 million of 4.375% senior notes due April 30, 2029 (“2029 Notes”) to qualified purchasers in a private placement offering under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. purchasers pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act and other applicable laws. The 2029 Notes were issued by our wholly-owned subsidiary Primo Water Holdings Inc. The 2029 Notes are guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries that are currently obligors under the Revolving Credit Facility, the $750.0 million of 5.500% senior notes due April 1, 2025 (“2025 Notes”) and the €450.0 million of 3.875% senior notes due October 31, 2028. The 2029 Notes will mature on April 30, 2029 and interest is payable semi-annually on April 30th and October 31st of each year commencing on October 31, 2021. The proceeds of the 2029 Notes, along with available cash on hand, were used to redeem in full the 2025 Notes and pay related premiums, fees and expenses.

Forward-Looking Statements

In addition to historical information, this report, and any documents incorporated in this report by reference, may contain statements relating to future events and future results. These statements are “forward-looking” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities legislation and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, future expectations and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Primo Water Corporation to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements that relate to projections of sales, cash flows, capital expenditures or other financial items, statements regarding our intentions to pay regular quarterly dividends on our common shares, and discussions of estimated future revenue enhancements and cost savings.

We undertake no obligation to update any information contained in this report or to publicly release the results of any revisions to forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances of which we may become aware of after the date of this report. Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements, and all future written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing.

Non-GAAP Measures

In this report, we supplement our reporting of financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) by utilizing certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items to make period-over-period comparisons for our underlying operations before material changes. We exclude these items to better understand trends in the business. We exclude the impact of foreign exchange to separate the impact of currency exchange rate changes from our results of operations.

We also utilize earnings (loss) ~~earnings~~ before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), which is GAAP net income (loss) ~~income~~ from continuing operations before interest expense, net, expense (benefit) ~~expense~~ for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. We consider EBITDA to be an indicator of operating performance. We also use EBITDA, as do analysts, lenders, investors and others, because it excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries or among companies within the same industry. These differences can result in considerable variability in the relative costs of productive assets and the depreciation and amortization expense among companies. We also utilize adjusted EBITDA, which is EBITDA excluding acquisition and integration costs, share-based compensation costs, COVID-19 costs, ~~goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges,~~ foreign exchange and other (gains) losses, net, loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment, net, ~~(gain) loss on sale of business~~ and other adjustments, net, as the case may be (“Adjusted EBITDA”). We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of our operating performance.

Because we use these adjusted financial results in the management of our business and to understand underlying business performance, we believe this supplemental information is useful to investors for their independent evaluation and understanding of our business performance and the performance of our management. The non-GAAP financial measures described above are in addition to, and not meant to be considered superior to, or a substitute for, our financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the non-GAAP financial measures included in this report reflect our judgment of particular items, and may be different from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

1 We revised the allocation of information technology costs from the All Other category to our North America and Rest of World reporting segments to reflect how the Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker, measures the performance of our segments. As a result of the change, SG&A expenses for the prior period have been recast to increase SG&A expenses in our North America and Rest of World reporting segments by $0.6 million and $1.9 million, respectively, and decrease SG&A expenses in the All Other category by $2.5 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. Operating income (loss) for our North America and Rest of World reporting segments, as well as our All Other category, reflect the aforementioned adjustments for the three months ended March 28, 2020.

The remaining $8.4 million and $0.5 million were released to us.January 2, 2021.

The recent COVID-19 pandemic has ~~disrupted~~continued to disrupt our business. The extent and duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we are not able to accurately predict and that all will vary by market. These factors include the duration and scope of the pandemic, global economic conditions during and after the pandemic, governmental actions that have been taken, or may be taken in the future, in response to the pandemic, and changes in customer behavior in response to the pandemic, some of which may be more than just temporary. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken certain measures to preserve our liquidity. For example, on April 3, 2020, we borrowed $170.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary measure to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility considering current uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. In the second quarter of 2020, we repaid $100.0 million of the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.

We believe that our level of resources, which includes cash on hand, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and funds provided by our operations, will be adequate to meet our expenses, capital expenditures, and debt service obligations for the next twelve months. Our ability to generate cash to meet our current expenses and debt service obligations will depend on our future performance. If we do not have enough cash to pay our debt service obligations, or if the Revolving Credit Facility or our outstanding notes were to become currently due, either at maturity or as a result of a breach, we may be required to take actions such as amending our Credit Agreement or the indentures governing our outstanding notes, refinancing all or part of our existing debt, selling assets, incurring additional indebtedness or raising equity. If we need to seek additional financing, there is no assurance that this additional financing will be available on favorable terms or at all.

As of ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, our outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were ~~$206.0~~$104.8 million and outstanding letters of credit totaled ~~$44.7~~$50.6 million resulting in total utilization under the Revolving Credit Facility of ~~$250.7~~$155.4 million. Accordingly, unused availability under the Revolving Credit Facility as of ~~June 27, 2020~~April 3, 2021 amounted to ~~$99.3~~$194.6 million.

We earn a portion of our consolidated operating income in subsidiaries located outside of Canada. We have not provided for federal, state and foreign deferred income taxes on the undistributed earnings of our non-Canadian subsidiaries. We expect that these earnings will be permanently reinvested by such subsidiaries except in certain instances where repatriation attributable to current earnings results in minimal or no tax consequences.

We expect our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows and the issuance of debt to continue to be sufficient to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. In addition, we expect our existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flows outside of Canada to continue to be sufficient to fund the operating activities of our subsidiaries.

A future change to our assertion that foreign earnings will be permanently reinvested could result in additional income taxes and/or withholding taxes payable, where applicable. Therefore, a higher effective tax rate could occur during the period of repatriation.

We may, from time to time, depending on market conditions, including without limitation whether our outstanding notes are then trading at a discount to their face amount, repurchase our outstanding notes for cash and/or in exchange for our common shares, warrants, preferred shares, debt or other consideration, in each case in open market purchases and/or privately negotiated transactions. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. However, the covenants in our Revolving Credit Facility subject such purchases to certain limitations and conditions.

A dividend of $0.06 per common share was declared during ~~each~~the first quarter of ~~2020~~2021 for aggregate dividend payments of approximately ~~$19.5~~$9.8 million.

On May ~~5, 2020,~~4, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.06 per share on common shares, payable in cash on June ~~17, 2020~~16, 2021 to shareowners of record at the close of business on June ~~5, 2020. On August~~ 4, ~~2020, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.06 per share on common shares, payable in cash on September 2, 2020 to shareowners of record at the close of business on August 19, 2020.~~2021. We intend to pay a regular quarterly dividend on our common shares subject to, among other things, the best interests of our shareowners, our results of continuing operations, cash balances and future cash requirements, financial condition, statutory regulations and covenants set forth in the Revolving Credit Facility and indentures governing our outstanding notes, as well as other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant from time to time.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes. These estimates are based on historical experience, the advice of external experts or on other assumptions management believes to be reasonable. Where actual amounts differ from estimates, revisions are included in the results for the period in which actual amounts become known. Historically, differences between estimates and actual amounts have not had a significant impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements are discussed with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors as they are implemented and on an annual basis.

~~Except as provided below, we~~We have no material changes to our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates disclosure as filed in our ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

~~Impairment testing of goodwill~~

Goodwill represents the excess purchase price of acquired businesses over the fair value of the net assets acquired. We test goodwill for impairment at least annually on the first day of the fourth quarter, based on our reporting unit carrying values, calculated as total assets less non-interest bearing liabilities, as of the end of the third quarter, or more frequently if we determine a triggering event has occurred during the year. During the second quarter of 2020, given the general deterioration in economic and market conditions in which we operate arising from COVID-19 pandemic, we identified a triggering event indicating possible impairment of goodwill and intangible assets, as further described below. We did not identify impairment of our property, plant and equipment, lease-related right-of-use assets, or long-lived assets.

Based on the quantitative assessment including consideration of the sensitivity of the assumptions made and methods used to determine fair value, industry trends and other relevant factors, we noted that the estimated fair value of the Aimia reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 23.5%. Therefore, no goodwill impairment charge was recorded for the Aimia reporting unit. Based on the quantitative assessment including consideration of the sensitivity of the assumptions made and methods used to determine fair value, industry trends and other relevant factors, we determined that goodwill was impaired for the Eden, Decantae, and Farrers reporting units and recognized impairment charges of $103.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The impairment charges are included in goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 27, 2020.

Critical assumptions used in our valuation of the Eden reporting unit included the anticipated future cash flows, a weighted-average terminal growth rate of 1.5% and a discount rate of 9.5%. Critical assumptions used in our valuation of the Aimia, Decantae, and Farrers reporting units included a weighted-average terminal growth rate of 2.0% and a discount rate of 11.5%. The anticipated future cash flows assumption reflects projected revenue growth rates, operating profit margins and capital expenditures. The terminal growth rate assumption incorporated into the discounted cash flow calculation reflects our long-term view of the market and industry, projected changes in the sale of our products, pricing of such products and operating profit margins. The discount rate was determined using various factors and sensitive assumptions, including bond yields, size premiums and tax rates. This rate was based on the weighted average cost of capital a market participant would use if evaluating the reporting unit as an investment. These assumptions are considered significant unobservable inputs and represent our best estimate of assumptions that market participants would use to determine the fair value of the respective reporting units. The key inputs into the discounted cash flow analysis were consistent with market data, where available, indicating that the assumptions used were in a reasonable range of observable market data.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a significant portion of our employees are now working from home, ~~while also under shelter-in-place orders or other restrictions.~~as states and municipalities have imposed varying levels of restriction on normal in-person business operations. Established business continuity plans were activated in order to mitigate the impact to our control environment, operating procedures, data and internal controls. The design of our processes and controls allow for remote execution with accessibility to secure data.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of ~~June 27, 2020,~~April 3, 2021, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are functioning effectively to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In addition, our management carried out an evaluation, as required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of changes in our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

~~Item 5. Other Information~~

The following disclosure is intended to satisfy the requirements of Item 5.02(e) of Form 8-K (Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers):

On May 5, 2020, the Human Resources and Compensation Committee (the “HRCC”) of our Board of Directors awarded a bonus payable in common shares to Jay Wells, Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The award vests and is paid out depending on the achievement of specified performance targets in connection with the Legacy Primo Acquisition for the year ended January 2, 2021 (the “Primo Synergy Bonus”). The performance targets include (1) attainment of a specified percentage target under the Company’s annual cash performance bonus plan for the DS Services business, and (2) attainment of a specified annualized 2020 synergy target. The number of common shares awarded would be calculated based on the closing share price on the date the achievement of the performance target is certified by the HRCC. Because the amount of the bonus and the share price are not yet known, the number of shares that may be awarded to Mr. Wells cannot be determined. Mr. Wells’ eligibility to receive the Primo Synergy Bonus is conditioned on his continued employment through the payment date.
