NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. The terms “AptarGroup”, “Aptar”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our” as used herein refer to AptarGroup, Inc. and our subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. ~~Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.~~

In the opinion of management, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (the “Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements”) include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Also, certain financial position data included herein was derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.

~~There are many uncertainties regarding~~The extent to which the ~~current~~ COVID-19 pandemic impacts our financial results and operations for all 3 of our business segments will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the emergence of new variants, the availability, adoption and ~~effectiveness~~efficacy of ~~a vaccine,~~vaccines and boosters, the length of time it takes for normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or ~~extensions~~extended in response to any further resurgence of ~~time for restrictions that have been imposed to date,~~the virus and numerous other uncertainties. ~~The pandemic has impacted certain markets within our business, our operations and our financial results during the three months ended March 31, 2021. NaN~~No impairments were recorded as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. ~~While~~However, due to the ~~disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. Due to significant~~general uncertainty surrounding the situation, ~~future results could change~~including areas such as cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and ~~therefore our~~labor shortages, future results could be materially impacted.

The war in Ukraine and the recent COVID-19 outbreak in China have not as of March 31, 2022 had a significant direct impact on our business in these regions, though the near-term visibility for both of these situations is expected to remain fluid and uncertain for the next several quarters. However, we have started to experience some indirect impacts on our business, including higher energy costs and certain supply chain interruptions.

ADOPTION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification.

~~Effective January 1,~~In November 2021, ~~we adopted ASU 2020-10, Codification Improvements, which updates various codification topics by clarifying or improving disclosure requirements to align with the SEC's regulations,~~ ~~and no material impacts were noted.~~

Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, issued by the FASB in June 2016, as well as the clarifying amendments subsequently issued. We applied the guidance using a modified retrospective approach and accordingly recognized an amount of $1.4 million as the cumulative adjustment to opening retained earnings in the first quarter of 2020. This is based on management's best estimates of specific losses on individual exposures particularly on current trade receivables, as well as the time value of money and reasonable and supportable information that is available at the reporting date about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions. On an ongoing basis, we will contemplate forward-looking economic conditions in recording lifetime expected credit losses for our financial assets measured at cost, such as our trade receivables and certain other assets.

~~In January 2017,~~ the FASB issued ASU ~~2017-04, which provides guidance to simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill~~2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832): Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. This update requires annual disclosures about transactions with a government that are accounted for ~~impairment~~ by ~~eliminating Step 2 from~~applying a grant or contribution accounting model by analogy including the ~~goodwill impairment test. As a result, impairment charges are required for~~nature of the ~~amount~~transaction, the financial statement line items affected by ~~which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value up to~~ the ~~amount of its allocated goodwill.~~transaction and any significant terms and conditions associated with the transactions. We adopted this guidance in the ~~standard on January 1, 2020 and did not record any impairment charges.~~fourth quarter of 2021 using the prospective approach.

In ~~August 2018,~~March 2020, the FASB issued ASU ~~2018-13,~~2020-04, which ~~amends disclosure requirements~~provides optional expedients and exceptions for ~~fair value measurements.~~applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The ~~new standard modifies disclosure requirements including removing requirements~~amendments to ~~disclose~~this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 was further amended in January 2021 by ASU 2021-01 which clarified the ~~valuation process for Level 3 measurements~~applicability of certain provisions. Both standards are effective upon issuance and ~~adding requirements~~can be adopted any time prior to ~~disclose~~December 31, 2022. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During 2021, we amended the ~~changes in unrealized gains and losses for~~revolving credit facility to provide mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR (in the ~~period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements~~case of USD) and the ~~range~~designated benchmark rates for other available currencies and ~~weighted average~~the replacement of ~~significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 measurements. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 and no material impacts were noted.~~

~~Table of Contents~~

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, which amends disclosure requirements~~any such applicable benchmark by a replacement alternative benchmark rate or mechanism for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. The amendments in this update remove disclosures that are no longer considered cost beneficial, clarify the specific requirements of disclosures, and add disclosure requirements identified as relevant. We adopted the standard during the fourth quarter of 2020 and appropriate disclosures are includedloans made in the ~~notes to the financial statements to the extent applicable. The provisions of the new~~applicable currency. We are evaluating any further impact this standard ~~do not~~may have ~~any effect~~ on our ~~financial statements.~~

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 to help entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (hosting arrangement) by providing guidance for determining when the arrangement includes a software license. The amendments in this update align 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 (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). Accordingly, the amendments require an entity (customer) in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contractCondensed Consolidated Financial Statements and which costs to expense. The amendments also require the entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement, which includes reasonably certain renewals. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2020 andanticipate no ~~material impacts were noted.~~further significant impacts.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

INCOME TAXES

We compute taxes on income in accordance with the tax rules and regulations of the many taxing authorities where ~~the~~ income is earned. The income tax rates imposed by these taxing authorities may vary substantially. Taxable income may differ from pre-tax income for financial accounting purposes. To the extent that these differences create timing differences between the tax basis of an asset or liability and our reported amount in the financial statements, an appropriate provision for deferred income taxes is made.

We maintain our assertion that the cash and distributable reserves at our non-U.S. affiliates are indefinitely reinvested. AtAs of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, under currently enacted laws, we do not have a balance of foreign earnings that will be subject to U.S. ~~taxation.~~taxation upon repatriation. We will provide for the necessary withholding and local income taxes when management decides that an affiliate should make a distribution. These decisions are made taking into consideration the financial requirements of the non-U.S. affiliates and ~~the~~our global cash management ~~goals of the Company.~~goals.

We provide a liability for the amount of unrecognized tax benefits from uncertain tax positions. This liability is provided whenever we determine that a tax benefit will not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold for recognition.

We are subject to the examination of our returns and other tax matters by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities and governmental bodies. We believe that ~~an adequate provision~~we have adequately provided a tax reserve for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations ~~exists.~~or uncertain tax positions. However, the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in our tax audits are resolved in a manner inconsistent with our expectations, we could be required to adjust ~~its~~our provision for income taxes in the period such resolution occurs. The resolution of each of these audits is not expected to be material to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

We perform our obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring goods and/or services in exchange for consideration from the customer. The timing of performance will sometimes differ from the timing of the receipt of the associated consideration from the customer, thus resulting in the recognition of a contract asset or a contract liability. We recognize a contract asset when we transfer control of goods or services to a customer prior to invoicing for the related performance obligation. The contract asset is transferred to accounts receivable when the product is shipped and invoiced to the customer. We recognize a contract liability if the customer's payment of consideration precedes the entity's performance.

The opening and closing balances of our contract asset and contract liabilities are as follows:


		Balance as of December 31, 2020		Balance as of March 31, 2021		Increase/ (Decrease)			Balance as of December 31, 2021		Balance as of March 31, 2022		Increase/ (Decrease)

Table of Contents

The differences in the opening and closing balances of our contract asset and contract liabilities are primarily the result of timing differences between our performance and the customer’s payment. The total amount of revenue recognized during the current year against contract liabilities is ~~$18.7~~$25.4 million, including ~~$13.0~~$21.4 million relating to contract liabilities at the beginning of the year. Current contract assets and long-term contract assets are included within the Prepaid and Other and Miscellaneous assets, respectively, while current contract liabilities and long-term contract liabilities are included within Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities and Deferred and Other Non-current Liabilities, respectively, within our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Determining the Transaction Price

In most cases, the transaction price for each performance obligation is stated in the contract. In determining the variable amounts of consideration within the transaction price (such as volume-based customer rebates), we include an estimate of the expected amount of consideration as revenue. We apply the expected value method based on all of the information (historical, current, and forecast) that is reasonably available and identify reasonable estimates based on this information. We apply the method consistently throughout the contract when estimating the effect of an uncertainty on the amount of variable consideration to which we will be entitled.

Product Sales

We primarily manufacture and sell drug delivery, consumer product dispensing ~~sealing~~ and active material science solutions. The amount of consideration is typically fixed for ~~such~~ customers. At the time of delivery, the customer is invoiced at the agreed-upon price. Revenue from product sales is typically recognized upon manufacture or shipment, when control of the goods transfers to the customer.

To determine when the control transfers, we typically assess, among other things, the shipping terms of the contract, shipping being one of the indicators of transfer of control. AFor a majority of product sales, ~~are sold FOB shipping point. For FOB shipping point shipments,~~ control of the goods transfers to the customer at the time of shipment of the goods. Once the goods are shipped, we are precluded from redirecting the shipment to another customer. Therefore, our performance obligation is satisfied at the time of shipment. ~~With respect to FOB destination~~For sales in which control transfers upon delivery, shipping and/or handling costs that occur before the customer obtains control of the goods are deemed to be fulfillment activities and are accounted for as fulfillment costs and revenue is recorded upon final delivery to the customer location. We have elected to account for shipping and handling costs that occur after the customer has obtained control of a good as fulfillment costs rather than as a promised service. We do not have any material significant payment terms as payment is typically received shortly after the point of sale.

~~Table of Contents~~

There also exist instances where we manufacture highly customized products that have no alternative use to us and for which we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. For these products, we transfer control and recognize revenue over time by measuring progress towards completion using the Output Method based on the number of products produced. As we normally make our products to a customer’s order, the time between production and shipment of our products is typically within a few weeks. We believe this measurement provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods as the costs incurred reflect the value of the products produced.

As a part of our customary business practice, we offer a standard warranty that the products will materially comply with the technical specifications and will be free from material defects. Because such warranties are not sold separately, do not provide for any service beyond a guarantee of a product’s initial specifications, and are not required by law, there is no revenue deferral for these types of warranties.

Tooling Sales

We also build or contract for molds and other tools (collectively defined as “tooling”) necessary to produce our products. As with product sales, we recognize revenue when control of the tool transfers to the customer. If the tooling is highly customized with no alternative use to us and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, we transfer control and recognize revenue over time by measuring progress towards completion using the Input Method based on costs incurred relative to total estimated costs to completion. Otherwise, revenue for the tooling is recognized at the point in time when the customer approves the tool. We do not have any material significant payment terms as payment is typically either received during the mold-build process or shortly after completion.

In certain instances, we offer extended warranties on our tools above and beyond the normal standard warranties. We normally receive payment at the inception of the contract and recognize revenue over the term of the contract. AtWe do not have any material extended warranties as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2020, $536 thousand of unearned revenue associated with outstanding contracts was reported in Accounts Payable, Accrued and Other Liabilities. At March 31, 2021, the unearned amount was $523 thousand. We expect to recognize approximately $98 thousand of the unearned amount during the remainder of 2021, $142 thousand in 2022, and $283 thousand thereafter.2021.

Service Sales

We also provide services to our pharmaceutical customers. As with product sales, we recognize revenue based on completion of each performance obligation of the service contract.

Table of Contents

Contract Costs

We do not incur significant costs to obtain or fulfill revenue contracts.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit losses primarily through our product sales, tooling sales and services to our customers. We assess each customer’s ability to pay for the products we sell by conducting a credit review. The credit review considers our expected billing exposure and timing for payment and the customer’s established credit rating or our assessment of the customer’s creditworthiness based on our analysis of their financial statements when a credit rating is not available. We also consider contract terms and conditions, country and political risks, and business strategy in our evaluation. A credit limit is established for each customer based on the outcome of this review.

We monitor our ongoing credit exposure through active review of customer balances against contract terms and due dates. Our activities include timely account reconciliation, dispute resolution and payment confirmation. We may employ collection agencies and legal counsel to pursue recovery of defaulted receivables.

Current uncertainty in credit and market conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine may slow our collection efforts if customers experience significant difficulty accessing credit and paying their obligations or due to imposed sanctions delaying payment which may lead to higher than normal accounts receivable and increased CECL charges.

On June 30, 2021, we entered into an amended and restated multi-currency revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility") with ~~2 tranches that~~a syndicate of banks to replace the existing facility (the "prior credit facility") maturing July 2022 and to amend and restate the unsecured term loan facility extended to our wholly-owned UK subsidiary under the prior credit facility (as amended, the "amended term facility"). The revolving credit facility matures in ~~July 2022 which~~June 2026, subject to a maximum of 2 one-year extensions in certain circumstances, and provides for unsecured financing of up to ~~$300~~$600 million ~~that is~~ available in the U.S. and ~~up to €150 million that is available~~ to our wholly-owned UK subsidiary. ~~NaN~~The amended term facility matures in July 2022. The revolving credit facility can be drawn in various currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, and CHF to the equivalent of $600 million, which may be increased by up to $300 million subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. As of March 31, 2022, no balance was utilized under ~~our U.S. facility or our euro-based~~the revolving credit facility asin the U.S. or by our wholly-owned UK subsidiary and $56 million remained outstanding under the amended term facility. As of ~~March~~December 31, ~~2021. We utilized $52.0~~2021, $133 million ~~under our U.S. facility and 0 balance~~ was utilized ~~on our euro-based~~under the revolving credit facility ~~as of December 31, 2020.~~in the U.S., €10 million (approximately $11.4 million) was utilized by our wholly-owned UK subsidiary and $56 million remained outstanding under the amended term facility.

There are 0no compensating balance requirements associated with our revolving credit facility. Each borrowing under the revolving credit facility will bear interest at rates based on LIBOR (in the case of USD), EURIBOR (in the case of EUR), SONIA (in the case of GBP), SARON (in the case of CHF), prime rates or other similar rates, in each case plus an applicable margin. The revolving credit facility provides mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR (in the case of USD) and the designated benchmark rates for other available currencies and the replacement of any such applicable benchmark by a replacement alternative benchmark rate or mechanism for loans made in the applicable currency. A facility fee on the total amount of the revolving credit facility is also payable quarterly, regardless of usage. The applicable margins for borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the facility fee percentage may change from time to time depending on changes in our consolidated leverage ratio.

In October 2020, we entered into an unsecured money market borrowing arrangement to provide short term financing of up to $30 million that is available in the U.S. No borrowing on this facility is permitted over a quarter end date. As such, 0no balance was utilized under this arrangement as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 or December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

NOTE 10 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

We maintain a foreign exchange risk management policy designed to establish a framework to protect the value of our non-functional currency denominated transactions from adverse changes in exchange rates. Sales of our products can be denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs to produce the product are denominated. Changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales or intercompany loans can impact our results of operations. Our policy is not to engage in speculative foreign currency hedging activities, but to minimize our net foreign currency transaction exposure, defined as firm commitments and transactions recorded and denominated in currencies other than the functional currency. We may use foreign currency forward exchange contracts, options and cross currency swaps to economically hedge these risks.

For derivative instruments designated as hedges, we formally document the nature and relationships between the hedging instruments and the hedged items, as well as the risk management objectives, strategies for undertaking the various hedge transactions, and the method of assessing hedge effectiveness at inception. Quarterly thereafter, we formally assess whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item. Additionally, in order to designate any derivative instrument as a hedge of an anticipated transaction, the significant characteristics and expected terms of any anticipated transaction must be specifically identified, and it must be probable that the anticipated transaction will occur. All derivative financial instruments used as hedges are recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (See Note 11 - Fair Value).

Cash Flow Hedge

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the changes in fair values are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and included in changes in derivative gain/loss. The changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to net income when the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. Cash flows from the settlement of derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges offset cash flows from the underlying hedged items and are included in operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Table of Contents

In 2017 our wholly-owned UK subsidiary borrowed $280 million in term loan borrowings under ~~a new~~our prior credit facility. In order to mitigate the currency risk of U.S. dollar debt on a euro functional currency entity and to mitigate the risk of variability in interest rates, we entered into a EUR/USD floating-to-fixed cross currency swap on July 20, 2017 in the notional amount of $280 million to effectively hedge the foreign exchange and interest rate exposure on the $280 million term loan. This EUR/USD swap agreement fixed our U.S. dollar floating-rate debt to 1.36% euro fixed-rate debt. Related to this hedge, approximately ~~$0.8~~$0.5 million of loss is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The amount expected to be recognized into earnings during the next 124 months related to the interest component of our cross currency swap based on prevailing foreign exchange and interest rates at March 31, ~~2021~~2022 is a ~~loss~~gain of ~~$0.5 million.~~$131 thousand. The amount expected to be recognized into earnings during the next 124 months related to the foreign exchange component of our cross currency swap is dependent on fluctuations in currency exchange rates. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the fair ~~values~~value of the cross currency swap ~~were~~was a ~~$3.0~~$1.7 million ~~liability.~~asset. The swap contract expires on July 20, 2022.

Hedge of Net Investments in Foreign Operations

A significant number of our operations are located outside of the United States. Because of this, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial condition and results of operations of our foreign subsidiaries. A ~~weakening~~strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has ~~an additive~~a dilutive translation effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, a ~~strengthening~~weakening U.S. dollar has ~~a dilutive~~an additive effect. In some cases, we maintain debt in these subsidiaries to offset the net asset exposure. We do not otherwise actively manage this risk using derivative financial instruments. In the event we plan on a full or partial liquidation of any of our foreign subsidiaries where our net investment is likely to be monetized, we will consider hedging the currency exposure associated with such a transaction.

Other

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we have recorded the fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts of ~~$0.2~~$0.4 million in prepaid and other and ~~$0.5~~$2.3 million in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities on the balance sheet. All forward exchange contracts outstanding as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 had an aggregate notional contract amount of ~~$52.0~~$58.9 million.

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE

Authoritative guidelines require the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

•Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

•Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

~~Table~~As of ~~Contents~~March 31, 2022, the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities were categorized as follows:

(2)Market approach valuation technique based on observable market transactions of spot and forward rates.

The carrying amounts of our other current financial instruments such as cash and equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, notes payable and current maturities of long-term obligations approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. We consider our long-term obligations a Level 2 liability and utilize the market approach valuation technique based on interest rates that are currently available to us for issuance of debt with similar terms and maturities. The estimated fair value of our long-term obligations was ~~$1.1~~$1.2 billion as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~$1.1~~$0.9 billion as of December 31, ~~2020.~~2021.

During the first quarter of 2022, we invested $5.0 million in a convertible note in Enable Injections, Inc. This investment is recorded at fair value and is a Level 3 fair value measurement.

As discussed in Note ~~19 - Acquisitions~~12- Fair Value of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, we have a contingent consideration obligation to the selling equity holders of:

–Fusion Packaging, Inc. ("Fusion") in connection with the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests of Fusion (the "Fusion Acquisition") based on 2022 cumulative performance targets, and

–Noble International Holdings, Inc., Genia Medical, Inc. and JBCB Holdings, LLC (collectively referred to as "Noble") in connection with the acquisition of 100% of the equity interests of Noble (the "Noble Acquisition") based on 2024 cumulative performance targets.

We consider these obligations Level 3 liabilities and have estimated the aggregate fair value for these contingent consideration arrangements as follows:

March 31, 2021 December 31, 2020
Fusion Acquisition $ 27,460 $ 26,910

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the normal course of business, we are subject to a number of lawsuits and claims both actual and potential in nature. While management believes the resolution of these claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, our results of operations or cash flows, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable outcomes could occur and could include amounts in excess of any accruals which management has established. Were such unfavorable final outcomes to occur, it is possible that they could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Under our Certificate of Incorporation, we have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have a directors and officers liability insurance policy that covers a portion of our exposure. As a result of our insurance policy coverage, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. We have 0no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020.~~

In March 2017, the Supreme Court of Brazil issued a decision that a certain state value added tax should not be included in the calculation of federal gross receipts taxes. The decision reduces our gross receipts tax in Brazil prospectively and, potentially, retrospectively. If the Supreme Court of Brazil grants full retrospective recovery, we estimate remaining potential recoveries of approximately $1.0 million to $6.8 million, including interest. Due to uncertainties around our remaining court recovery claims, we have not recorded any further amounts relating to the retrospective nature of this matter.2021.

In December 2019, tax authorities in Brazil notified us of a tax assessment of approximately $6.1 million, including interest and penalties of $2.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, relating to differences in tax classification codes used for import duties for the period from January 2015 to August 2018. We are vigorously contesting the assessment, including interest and penalties, and have filed an administrative defense appeal in December 2019. In June 2020, an unfavorable decision was issued on the first administrative defense appeal. We filed a second administrative defense appeal in August 2020. We still believe we have a strong defense. Due to uncertainty in the amount of assessment and the timing of our appeal, 0no liability is recorded as of March 31, ~~2021.~~2022.

NOTE 13 – STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On April 18, 2019, we announced a share repurchase authorization of up to $350 million of common stock. This authorization replaces previous authorizations and has no expiration date. We may repurchase shares through the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other programs, subject to market conditions.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased approximately 140 thousand shares for approximately $16.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ we did not repurchase any shares. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there was ~~$278.5~~$184.4 million of authorized share repurchases ~~available to us.~~remaining under the existing authorization.

NOTE 14 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We issue restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which consist of time-based and performance-based awards, to employees under stock awards plans approved by stockholders. In addition, RSUs are issued to non-employee directors under a Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement for Directors pursuant to the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan. RSUs granted to employees vest according to a specified performance period and/or vesting period. Time-based RSUs generally vest over three years. Performance-based RSUs vest at the end of the specified performance period, generally three years, assuming required performance or market vesting conditions are met. Performance-based RSUs have one of two vesting conditions: (1) based on our internal financial performance metrics and (2) based on our total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to total shareholder returns of an industrial peer group. At the time of vesting, the vested shares of common stock are issued in the employee’s name. In addition, RSU awards are generally net settled (shares are withheld to cover the employee tax obligation). RSUs granted to directors are only time-based and generally vest over one year.

~~Table of Contents~~

The fair value of both time-based RSUs and performance-based RSUs pertaining to internal performance metrics is determined using the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. The fair value of performance-based RSUs pertaining to TSR is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. Inputs and assumptions used to calculate the fair value are shown in the table below. The fair value of these RSUs is expensed over the vesting period using the straight-line method or using the graded vesting method when an employee becomes eligible to retain the award at retirement.

As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there was ~~$69.9~~$71.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost relating to RSU awards which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of ~~1.9~~2.3 years.

Historically we issued stock options to our employees and non-employee directors. Beginning in 2019, we no longer issue stock options. Stock options were awarded with the exercise price equal to the market price on the date of grant and generally vest over three years and expire 10 years after grant. For stock option grants, we used historical data to estimate expected life and volatility.

The reduction in stock option expense is due to our move to RSUs as discussed above. Cash received from option exercises was approximately ~~$31.9 million.~~$3.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The actual tax benefit realized for the tax deduction from option exercises was approximately ~~$9.1~~$0.3 million and ~~$4.8~~$9.1 million in the three months ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~March 31, 2020,~~2021, respectively. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there is no remaining valuation of stock option awards to be expensed in future periods.

NOTE 15 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to Aptar by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to Aptar by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the applicable period. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share is attributable to stock-based compensation awards. Stock-based compensation awards for which total employee proceeds exceed the average market price over the applicable period would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share, and accordingly, are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020~~2021 is as follows:

During ~~the fourth quarter of~~2021 and 2020, we recognized an other than temporary impairment of $0.4 million ($0.3 million after-tax) and $3.0 million ($2.3 million after-tax), respectively, on our underlying assets in this investment as a result of a reassessment of the future value of the business and continued reduction in operating cash flows. In addition to our investment, we also hold a note receivable from Kali Care for $1.5 million which is included in accounts and notes receivable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. During March 2022, we recorded an expected credit loss reserve against the outstanding note receivable from Kali Care for $1.5 million as a result of a proposed sale of the business.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS

During the first quarter of 2021, financial results and operations continued to be adversely impacted by the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic. The significance of the impacts to our segments are discussed herein. While we have certain applications that have benefited from the pandemic such as injectables and personal care, these benefits are more than offset by the adverse impact on sales of our beauty products sold via duty free travel and retail stores and a reduction of our products used for bottled water and on-the-go beverage applications.

As each of our segments produce dispensing systems that have been determined to be essential products by various government agencies around the world, our facilities have remained operational during the ~~quarter.~~COVID-19 pandemic. We have taken a variety of measures to ensure the availability and functioning of our critical infrastructure, to promote the safety and security of our employees and to support the communities in which we operate. We ~~are following~~continue to follow public and private sector policies and initiatives to reduce the transmission of COVID-19, such as the imposition of travel restrictions, the promotion of social distancing and the adoption of work-from-home arrangements, and all of these policies and initiatives have impacted our operations. ~~Due~~

The extent to which the ~~dynamic nature of the situation, we are not able at this time to estimate the impact of~~ COVID-19 onpandemic impacts our ~~future~~ financial results and operations ~~but~~for fiscal year 2022 and beyond for all three of our business segments will depend on future developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the ~~impact~~emergence of new variants, the availability, adoption and efficacy of vaccines and boosters, the length of time it takes for normal economic and operating conditions to resume, additional governmental actions that may be taken and/or extended in response to any further resurgence of the virus and numerous other uncertainties. No impairments were recorded as of March 31, 2022 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, due to the general uncertainty surrounding the situation, including areas such as cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages, future results could be ~~material~~materially impacted.

The war in Ukraine and the recent COVID-19 outbreak in China have not as of March 31, 2022 had a significant direct impact on our business in these regions though the near-term visibility for both of these situations is expected to remain fluid and uncertain for the ~~remainder of fiscal year 2021~~next several quarters. However, we have started to experience some indirect impacts on our business, including higher energy costs and ~~could be material during any future periods affected either directly or indirectly by this pandemic.~~certain supply chain interruptions.

NET SALES

Reported net sales for the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 increased 8%9% to ~~$776.8~~$844.9 million compared to ~~$721.6~~$776.8 million for the first three months of ~~2020.~~2021.

Price increases to our customers due to ~~the~~rising inflationary costs had a positive impact on our core sales during the first quarter of 2022.

RESTRUCTURING INITIATIVES

In late 2017, we began a business transformation plan to drive profitable sales growth, increase operational excellence, enhance our approach to innovation and improve organizational effectiveness. The primary focus of the plan iswas the Beauty + Home segment; however, certain global general and administrative functions ~~are~~were also ~~being~~ addressed. ~~Restructuring costs related to this plan for~~As of the ~~three months ended March 31,~~end of 2021, ~~and 2020 are as follows:~~

Wewe have successfully ~~implemented~~completed the vast majority of our planned initiatives related to our transformation plan, including ~~successfully~~ implementing new commercial strategies, reducing costs and adding capabilities in Asia and in fast growing application fields that we believe will position the segment for future growth and profitability. However, the COVID-19 global pandemic ~~has caused several initiatives that were expected to be completed in 2020 to be delayed, including the planned closure of two facilities in the U.S., and~~ resulted in a significant decline in our beauty business. While our Beauty + Home segment continues to be profitable, the disruption caused by the pandemic, including higher operating costs, have more than offset any expected growth in earnings from our transformation. ~~Though~~Although we believe the beauty market remains a long-term attractive growth market and we remain committed to completing our ~~remaining~~ transformation initiatives, we expect the return to growth to be gradual and non-linear as this market is highly correlated to the return to post-pandemic normal consumer behavior, including travel, which has proven to be sporadic and uncertain. ~~We estimate total implementation costs of approximately$125 million for these initiatives.~~ The cumulative expense incurred ~~to date is $116.7~~for this transformation plan as of March 31, 2022 was $136.5 million. ~~We have also made capital investments of approximately $50 million~~

Restructuring costs related to ~~this~~the above plan ~~with no further significant capital investments expected.~~for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:

Operating income as a percentage of net sales decreased to ~~11.9%~~11.6% in the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~12.3%~~11.9% for the same period in the prior year.

NET OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Net other income (expense) ~~improved $18.7~~decreased $19.4 million to ~~$8.3~~$11.1 million of ~~income~~expense for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 from ~~$10.4~~$8.3 million of ~~expense~~income in the same period of the prior year. ~~$16.8~~$18.1 million of this ~~improvement~~reduction is ~~a gain on~~the change in fair value of our investment in PureCycle Technologies ~~(“PureCycle”~~("PCT" or "PureCycle").

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The tax provision for interim periods is determined using the estimated annual effective consolidated tax rate, based on the current estimate of full-year earnings and related estimated full year-taxes, adjusted for the impact of discrete quarterly items. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020,~~2021, respectively, was ~~16.8%~~28.0% and ~~29.2%~~16.8%. The ~~reported~~lower effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 reflects ~~additional~~incremental tax benefits from employee stock-based compensation of ~~$5.1~~$8.0 million and a $2.9 million benefit from changes in U.S. state tax laws ~~during~~for the ~~quarter.

CORPORATE & OTHER

In addition to our three reporting segments, we assign certain costs to “Corporate & Other,” which is presented separately in Note 16 – Segment Information of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. For Corporate & Other, Adjusted EBITDA (which excludes net interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, restructuring initiatives, acquisition-related costs, net unrealized investment gains and losses related to observable market price changes on equity securities and other special items) primarily includes certain professional fees, compensation and information system costs which are not allocated directly to our reporting segments.

We also ~~benefited from a net favorable impact on our hedging activities during the first quarter of~~reported higher professional fees and travel costs compared to 2021.

NON-U.S. GAAP MEASURES

In addition to the information presented herein that conforms to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. ~~GAAP,~~GAAP"), we also present financial information that does not conform to U.S. GAAP, which are referred to as non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. Management may assess our financial results both on a U.S. GAAP basis and on a non-U.S. GAAP basis. We believe it is useful to present these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures because they allow for a better period over period comparison of operating results by removing the impact of items that, in management’s view, do not reflect our core operating performance. These non-U.S. GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for U.S. GAAP financial results, but should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and other information presented herein. Investors are cautioned against placing undue reliance on these non-U.S. GAAP measures. Further, investors are urged to review and consider carefully the adjustments made by management to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure to arrive at these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures.

In our Management’s Discussion and Analysis, we exclude the impact of foreign currency translation when presenting net sales and other information, which we define as “constant currency.” Changes in net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. As a worldwide business, it is important that we take into account the effects of foreign currency translation when we view our results and plan our strategies. Consequently, when our management looks at our financial results to measure the core performance of our business, we may exclude the impact of foreign currency translation by translating our prior period results at current period foreign currency exchange rates. As a result, our management believes that these presentations are useful internally and may be useful to investors. We also exclude the impact of material acquisitions when comparing results to prior periods. Changes in operating results excluding the impact of acquisitions are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. We believe it is important to exclude the impact of acquisitions on period over period results in order to evaluate performance on a more comparable basis.

We present earnings before net interest and taxes (“EBIT”) and earnings before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). We also present our adjusted earnings before net interest and taxes (“Adjusted EBIT”) and adjusted earnings before net interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”), both of which exclude the business transformation charges (restructuring initiatives), acquisition-related costs, purchase accounting adjustments related to acquisitions and investments and net unrealized investment gains and losses related to observable market price changes on equity securities. Our Outlook is also provided on a non-U.S. GAAP basis because certain reconciling items are dependent on future events that either cannot be controlled, such as ~~tax~~exchange rates and ~~exchange rates,~~changes in the fair value of equity investments, or reliably predicted because they are not part of our routine activities, such as restructuring ~~initiatives~~ and ~~acquisition-related~~acquisition costs.

We provide a reconciliation of Net Debt to Net Capital as a non-U.S. GAAP measure. “Net Debt” is calculated as interest bearing debt less cash and equivalents and short-term investments while “Net Capital” is calculated as stockholders’ equity plus Net Debt. Net Debt to Net Capital measures a company’s financial leverage, which gives users an idea of a company's financial structure, or how it is financing its operations, along with insight into its financial strength. We believe that it is meaningful to take into consideration the balance of our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments when evaluating our leverage. If needed, such assets could be used to reduce our gross debt position.

~~Table of Contents~~

Finally, we provide a reconciliation of free cash flow as a non-U.S. GAAP measure. Free cash flow is calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures plus proceeds from government grants related to capital expenditures. We use free cash flow to measure cash flow generated by operations that is available for dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment. We believe that it is meaningful to investors in evaluating our financial performance and measuring our ability to generate cash internally to fund our initiatives.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

Because of our international presence, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries. Our primary foreign exchange exposure is to the euro, but we also have foreign exchange exposure to the Chinese yuan, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Swiss franc and other Asian, European and South American currencies. A ~~weakening~~strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has ~~an additive~~a dilutive translation effect on our financial statements. Conversely, a ~~strengthening~~weakening U.S. dollar has ~~a dilutive~~an additive effect. In some cases, we sell products denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs are incurred. Any changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales could materially impact our results of operations. During the first quarter of ~~2021,~~2022, the U.S. dollar ~~weakened~~strengthened compared to the major European currencies and ~~the Chinese yuan, while it appreciated against most~~ Latin America currencies. This resulted in ~~an additive~~a dilutive impact on our translated results during the first quarter of ~~2021~~2022 when compared to the first quarter of ~~2020.~~2021.

QUARTERLY TRENDS

Our results of operations in the last quarter of the year typically are negatively impacted by customer plant shutdowns in December. Several of the markets we serve are impacted by the seasonality of underlying consumer products. This, in turn, may have an impact on our net sales and results of operations for those markets. ~~However, we~~We believe the diversification of our product portfolio minimizes fluctuations in our overall quarterly financial statements and results in an immaterial seasonality impact on our Condensed Consolidated ~~Financials~~Financial Statements when viewed quarter over quarter.

~~Table of Contents~~

However, uncertainties related to the economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic may impact noted historical trends.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Given ~~the diversification of~~ our ~~segments, the~~current low level of leverage relative to others in our industry and our ability to generate strong levels of cash flow from operations, we believe we are in a strong financial position and have the financial resources to meet our business requirements in the foreseeable future. We have historically used cash flow from operations, our revolving credit facilities, proceeds from stock options and debt, as needed, as our primary sources of liquidity. Our primary uses of liquidity are to invest in equipment and facilities that are necessary to support our growth, pay quarterly dividends to stockholders, repurchase shares of our common stock and to make acquisitions that will contribute to the achievement of our strategic objectives. ~~Amid~~Due to uncertainty amid the war in Ukraine, the recent COVID-19 ~~pandemic, we have been focused on preserving our liquidity; however, we intend to continue to pay quarterly dividends to our stockholders, invest~~outbreak in ~~our business~~China and ~~make acquisitions as we consider necessary to achieve our strategic objectives. In~~the inflationary environment, in the event that customer demand decreases significantly for a prolonged period of time ~~due to the COVID-19 pandemic~~ and adversely impacts our cash flows from operations, we would have the ability to restrict and significantly reduce capital expenditure levels as well as evaluate our acquisition strategy. A prolonged and significant reduction in capital expenditure levels could increase future repairs and maintenance costs as well as have a negative impact on operating margins if we were unable to invest in new innovative products.

Cash and equivalents and restricted cash ~~decreased~~increased to ~~$259.7~~$355.6 million at March 31, ~~2021~~2022 from ~~$305.0~~$122.9 million at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021 primarily due to proceeds from our $400 million inaugural public bond offering, as described below. Total short and long-term interest bearing debt of ~~$1.1~~$1.4 billion at March 31, ~~2021~~2022 was slightly ~~lower~~higher than the $1.2 billion at December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. The ratio of our Net Debt (interest bearing debt less cash and equivalents) to Net Capital (stockholders’ equity plus Net Debt) ~~decreased to 30.9%~~remained consistent at 35.1% at March 31, ~~2021 compared to 32.0% at~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020.~~2021. See the reconciliation under "Non-U.S. GAAP Measures".

In the first three months of ~~2021,~~2022, our operations provided approximately ~~$72.2~~$92.1 million in net cash flow compared to ~~$85.0~~$72.2 million for the same period a year ago. In both periods, cash flow from operations was primarily derived from earnings before depreciation and amortization. The ~~decrease~~increase in cash provided by operations during the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 is primarily attributable to anbetter working capital management and lower restructuring costs. Partially offsetting the increase in ~~working capital requirements which offset higher net income.~~cash provided by operations was a $15.2 million contribution to our domestic benefit plans during the first quarter of 2022.

We used ~~$63.9~~$68.4 million in cash for investing activities during the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~$88.1~~$63.9 million during the same period a year ago. Our investment in capital projects increased ~~$2.3~~$9.2 million during the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to the first three months of ~~2020.~~2021 which is primarily related to additional investments in capacity for our injectables and active material science solutions divisions, partially offset by $8.0 million received by government grant proceeds. Our ~~2021~~2022 estimated cash outlays for capital expenditures net of government grant proceeds are expected to be in the range of approximately $300 to $330 million but could vary due to changes in exchange rates as well as the timing of capital projects. ~~Our decline in cash utilization is a result~~

Financing activities ~~used $45.0~~provided $211.9 million in cash during the first three months of ~~2021~~2022 compared to ~~$174.3~~$45.0 million in cash ~~provided~~used by financing activities during the same period a year ago. During the first three months of ~~2021,~~2022, we ~~used cash on hand to repay net short term revolving debt of $52.0 million and paid $23.4 million of dividends. We~~ received proceeds from ~~stock option exercises~~long-term obligations of ~~$31.9 million.~~$402.2 million primarily from the issuance of $400 million of our 3.600% Senior Notes due March 2032 during the first quarter of 2022. As part of our bond offering we paid $3.8 million in debt issuance costs. Additionally, we repaid $144.3 million related to our revolving credit facility, paid $24.9 million of dividends and purchased $16.0 million of treasury stock. We anticipate redeeming all $75.0 million of our 3.25% private placement notes due in September 2022 during the second quarter of 2022 at a price equal to the principal amount plus a make-whole premium.

~~We hold U.S. dollar~~On June 30, 2021, we entered into an amended and ~~euro-denominated debt to align our capital structure with our earnings base. We also maintain a~~restated multi-currency revolving credit facility ~~with~~(the "revolving credit facility") to replace the existing facility (the "prior credit facility") maturing July 2022 and to amend and restate the unsecured term loan facility extended to our wholly-owned UK subsidiary under the prior credit facility (as amended, the "amended term facility"). The revolving credit facility matures in June 2026, subject to a maximum of two ~~tranches, providing~~one-year extensions in certain circumstances, and provides for unsecured financing of up to ~~$300~~$600 million ~~that is~~ available in the U.S. and ~~up to €150 million that is available~~ to our wholly-owned UK subsidiary. The amended term facility matures in July 2022. The revolving credit facility can be drawn in various currencies including USD, EUR, GBP and CHF to the equivalent of $600 million, which may be increased by up to $300 million subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Each borrowing under the revolving credit facility will bear interest at rates based on LIBOR (in the case of USD), EURIBOR (in the case of EUR), SONIA (in the case of GBP), SARON (in the case of CHF), prime rates or other similar rates, in each case plus an applicable margin. The revolving credit facility provides mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR (in the case of USD) and the designated benchmark rates for other available currencies and the replacement of any such applicable benchmark by a replacement alternative benchmark rate or mechanism for loans made in the applicable currency. A facility fee on the total amount of the revolving credit facility is also payable quarterly, regardless of usage. The applicable margins for borrowings under the revolving credit facility and the facility fee percentage may change from time to time depending on changes in our consolidated leverage ratio. NoAs of March 31, 2022, no balance was utilized under ~~our U.S. facility or our euro-based~~the revolving credit facility asin the U.S. or by our wholly-owned UK subsidiary and $56 million remained outstanding under the amended term facility which matures in July 2022.

Credit facility balances are included in notes payable, ~~including~~ revolving credit ~~facilities~~facility and overdrafts on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Our revolving credit facility and corporate long-term obligations require us to satisfy certain financial and other covenants including:


	Requirement	Level at March 31, ~~2021~~2022
Consolidated Leverage Ratio (1)	Maximum of 3.50 to 1.00	~~1.55~~1.83 to 1.00

(1)Definitions of ratios are included as part of the revolving credit facility ~~agreement and the private placement agreements.~~agreement.

Based upon the above consolidated leverage ratio covenant, we have the ability to borrow approximately an additional ~~$1.1~~$1.0 billion before the 3.50 to 1.00 maximum ratio requirement is exceeded.

In ~~addition, in~~ October 2020, we entered into an unsecured money market borrowing arrangement to provide short term financing of up to $30 million that is available in the U.S. No borrowing on this facility is permitted over a quarter end date. As such, no balance was utilized under this arrangement as of March 31, ~~2021.~~

2022.

Our foreign operations have historically met cash requirements with the use of internally generated cash or uncommitted short-term borrowings. We also have committed financing arrangements in both the U.S. and the UK as detailed above. We manage our global cash requirements considering (i) available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business, (ii) the geographic location of our liquidity needs, and (iii) the cost to access international cash balances.

We facilitate a supply chain finance program ("SCF") across Europe and the U.S. that is administered by a third-party platform. Eligible suppliers can elect to receive early payment of invoices, less an interest deduction, and negotiate their receivable sales arrangements through the third-party platform on behalf of the respective SCF bank. We are not a party to those agreements, and the terms of our payment obligations are not impacted by a supplier's participation in the SCF. Accordingly, we have concluded that this program continues to be a trade payable program and is not indicative of a borrowing arrangement.

All outstanding amounts related to suppliers participating in the SCF are recorded within Accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and associated payments are included in operating activities within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. As of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, the amounts due to suppliers participating in the SCF ~~and included in Accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities~~ were approximately ~~$26 million and $23 million, respectively.~~$30 million.

Table of Contents

Collection and payment periods tend to be longer for our operations located outside the United States due to local business practices. We have also seen an increasing trend in pressure from certain customers to lengthen their payment terms. As the majority of our products are made to order, we have not needed to keep significant amounts of finished goods inventory to meet customer requirements. However, some of our contracts specify an amount of finished goods safety stock we are required to maintain.

To the extent our financial position allows and there is a clear financial benefit, we from time-to-time benefit from early payment discounts with some suppliers. We are also lengthening the payment terms with our suppliers to be in line with customer trends. While we have offered third party alternatives for our suppliers to receive payments sooner, we generally do not utilize these offerings from our customers as the economic conditions currently are not beneficial for us.

On April ~~15, 2021,~~14, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.38 per share payable on May ~~19, 2021~~18, 2022 to stockholders of record as of April ~~28, 2021.~~27, 2022.

CONTINGENCIES

The Company, in the normal course of business, is subject to a number of lawsuits and claims both actual and potential in nature. Please refer to Note 12 - Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of contingencies affecting our business.

~~OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS~~

~~We do not have significant off-balance sheet arrangements.~~

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

We have reviewed the recently issued accounting standards updates to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification that have future effective dates. Standards that have been adopted during ~~2021~~2022 are discussed in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The amendments to this update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 was further amended in January 2021 by ASU 2021-01 which clarified the applicability of certain provisions. Both standards are effective upon issuance and can be adopted any time prior to December 31, 2022. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. As of ~~March~~December 31, 2021, we have ~~not yet modified~~amended the revolving credit facility to provide mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR (in the case of USD) and the designated benchmark rates for other available currencies and the replacement of any ~~contracts as~~such applicable benchmark by a ~~result of reference~~replacement alternative benchmark rate ~~reform and~~or mechanism for loans made in the applicable currency. We are evaluating ~~the~~any further impact this standard may have on our Condensed Consolidated Financial ~~Statements.~~Statements and anticipate no further significant impacts.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

OUTLOOK

~~Current underlying demand conditions in our markets are not expected to change dramatically~~We expect the broad based momentum from ~~what we experienced in~~ the first ~~quarter. We anticipate that demand for~~quarter to continue with growth in each segment, including strong growth of our prescription drug device business which will help to compensate for lower demand for at-home COVID-19 tests. The war in Ukraine and ~~consumer health care devices~~the COVID-19 outbreak in China are expected to have some impact on our business in the respective regions though visibility remains highly uncertain. We will ~~remain under pressure compared to the prior year as customers~~ continue to ~~reduce existing inventories. In certain other markets,~~manage our operations efficiently while we expect to have easier comparisons to the prior year second quarter which was the period most severely impacted by pandemic lockdowns. We also expect our results to be negatively impacted by timing of passingmitigate rising costs through ~~higher resin~~pricing initiatives and ~~other raw material costs.~~cost containment.

We expect earnings per share for the second quarter of ~~2021,~~2022, excluding any restructuring expenses, acquisition-related costs and changes in the fair value of equity investments, to be in the range of ~~$0.91~~$0.92 to ~~$0.99~~$1.02 and this guidance is based on an effective tax rate range of ~~26%~~27% to ~~28%~~29%.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

A significant number of our operations are located outside of the United States. Because of this, movements in exchange rates may have a significant impact on the translation of the financial condition and results of operations of our subsidiaries. Our primary foreign exchange exposure is to the euro, but we also have foreign exchange exposure to the Chinese yuan, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Swiss franc and other Asian, European and South American currencies. A ~~weakening~~strengthening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has ~~an additive~~a dilutive translation effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, a ~~strengthening~~weakening U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies has ~~a dilutive~~an additive translation effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, in some cases, we sell products denominated in a currency different from the currency in which the related costs are incurred. Any changes in exchange rates on such inter-country sales may impact our results of operations.

The table below provides information as of March 31, ~~2021~~2022 about our forward currency exchange contracts. The majority of the contracts expire before the end of the second quarter of ~~2021.~~2022.

The fair value of this cash flow hedge is ~~$3.0~~$1.7 million reported in ~~accounts payable, accrued~~prepaid and other ~~liabilities~~assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management has evaluated, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of March 31, ~~2021.~~2022. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, ~~2021~~2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, we have implemented remote work arrangements and restricted non-essential business travel. These arrangements have not materially affected our ability to maintain our business operations, including the operation of financial reporting systems, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

Certain French employees are eligible to participate in the FCP Aptar Savings Plan (the “Plan”). An independent agent purchases shares of common stock available under the Plan for cash on the open market and we do not issue shares. We do not receive any proceeds from the purchase of common stock under the Plan. The agent under the Plan is ~~Banque Nationale de Paris~~BNP Paribas Fund Services. No underwriters are used under the Plan. All shares are sold in reliance upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 provided by Regulation S promulgated under that Act. During the quarter ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Plan purchased ~~15,003~~2,247 shares of our common stock on behalf of the participants at an average price of ~~$134.57,~~$117.50, for an aggregate amount of ~~$2.0 million. The Plan~~$264 thousand, and sold ~~4,378~~1,123 shares of our common stock on behalf of the participants at an average price of ~~$141.47,~~$115.95, for an aggregate amount of ~~$619 thousand during the same period.~~$130 thousand. At March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, the Plan owned ~~95,752~~110,008 shares of our common stock.

ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

On April 18, 2019, we announced a share purchase authorization of up to $350 million of common stock. This authorization ~~replaces~~replaced previous authorizations and has no expiration date. We may repurchase shares through the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other programs, subject to market conditions.

During the three months ended March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, we ~~did not repurchase any shares.~~repurchased approximately 140 thousand shares for approximately $16.0 million. As of March 31, ~~2021,~~2022, there was ~~$278.5~~$184.4 million of authorized share repurchases ~~available to us. Amid~~remaining under the ~~COVID-19 pandemic, we have been focused on preserving~~existing authorization.

The following table summarizes our ~~liquidity and therefore temporarily suspended~~purchases of our ~~share repurchase plan in 2020. While we continue to assess~~securities for the ~~impact the pandemic is having on our business throughout 2021, we removed the aforementioned suspension during the first~~ quarter ~~of 2021 in order to preserve our flexibility to make repurchases from time to time depending on market conditions.~~ended March 31, 2022:
