customers are included in total net sales and the associated expense is a component of cost of sales. Certain products are also sold through indirect distribution channels whereby the distributor assumes any further obligations to the end customer. Revenue is recognized on these distributor arrangements upon transfer of control to the distributor. Contracts do not contain variable pricing arrangements that are retrospective, except for rebate programs. Rebates are estimated based on expected sales volumes and offset against revenue at the time such revenue is recognized. The Company generally maintains the right to accept or reject a product return in its terms and conditions and also maintains appropriate accruals for outstanding credits. The related provisions for estimated returns and rebates are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.
Certain of the Company’s product arrangements include separate performance obligations, primarily related to installation. Such performance obligations are accounted for separately when the deliverables have stand-alone value and the satisfaction of the undelivered performance obligations is probable and within the Company's control. The allocation of revenue between the performance obligations is based on the observable stand-alone selling prices at the time of the sale in accordance with a number of factors including service technician billing rates, time to install, and geographic location.
Software is generally not considered a distinct performance obligation with the exception of a limited number offew small software applications. The Company primarily sellsgenerally does not sell software products withwithout the related hardware instrument as the software is embedded in the product. The Company’s products typically require no significant production, modification, or customization of the hardware or software that is essential to the functionality of the products.
Service revenue not under contract is recognized upon the completion of the service performed. Revenue from spare parts sold on a stand-alone basis is recognized when control is transferred to the customer, which is generally at the time of shipment or delivery. Revenue from service contracts is recognized ratably over the contract period using a time-based method. These contracts represent an obligation to perform repair and other services including regulatory compliance qualification, calibration, certification, and preventative maintenance on a customer’s pre-defined equipment over the contract period.

respectively. The Company has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and therefore does not need to present all the required disclosures in tabular format. The fair values of the interest ratecross-currency swap agreements the cross currency swap agreements, and the foreign currency forward contracts that economically hedge short-term intercompany balances are estimated based upon inputs from current valuation information obtained from dealer quotes and priced with observable market assumptions and appropriate valuation adjustments for credit risk. The Company has evaluated the valuation methodologies used to develop the fair values by dealers in order to determine whether such valuations are representative of an exit price in the Company’s principal market. In addition, the Company uses an internally developed model to perform testing on the valuations received from brokers. The Company has also considered both its own credit risk and counterparty credit risk in determining fair value and determined these adjustments were insignificant at March 31,June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Under U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement consists of observable and unobservable inputs that reflect the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability.

A fair value hierarchy has been established that categorizes these inputs into three levels:
Level 1:    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2:    Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 3:    Unobservable inputs

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.
General
Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Operating results for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2023.
Changes in local currenciescurrency exclude the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations. Local currency amounts are determined by translating current and previous year consolidated financial information at an index utilizing historical currency exchange rates. We believe local currency information provides a helpful assessment of business performance and a useful measure of results between periods. We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We present non-GAAP financial measures in reporting our financial results to provide investors with an additional analytical tool to evaluate our operating results.
We also include in the discussion below disclosures of immaterial qualitative factors that are not quantified. Although the impact of such factors is not considered material, we believe these disclosures can be useful in evaluating our operating results.
Results of Operations – Consolidated
The following tables set forth certain items from our interim consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three and six month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022 (amounts in thousands).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities to meet our obligations and commitments. In addition, liquidity includes available borrowings under our Credit Agreement, the ability to obtain appropriate financing and our cash and cash equivalent balances. Currently, our liquidity needs are primarily driven by working capital requirements, capital expenditures, share repurchases and acquisitions. Global market conditions can be uncertain, and our ability to generate cash flowsflow could be reduced by a deterioration in global markets.
We currently believe that cash flows from operating activities, together with liquidity available under our Credit Agreement, local working capital facilities, and cash balances, will be sufficient to fund currently anticipated working capital needs and spending requirements for at least the foreseeable future.

Cash provided by operating activities totaled $153.3$420.1 million during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023, compared to $90.8$310.0 million in the corresponding period in 2022. The increase for the threesix months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior yearJune 30, 2023 is primarily related to working capital especially inventory, and lower cash incentive payments of $20 million.
Capital expenditures are made primarily for investments in information systems andsystems and technology, machinery, equipment and the purchase and expansion of facilities. Our capital expenditures totaled $23.2$51.9 million for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 compared to $19.2$62.4 million in the corresponding period in 2022.
In September 2021, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of Defense to increase domestic production capacity of pipette tips and enhance manufacturing automation and logistics. As of March 31,June 30, 2023, we have obtained $29.7$30.9 million of the $35.8 million of total funding to be received through the remainder of 2023, which will offset futureassociated capital expenditures.

During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, we incurred approximately $3.3$7.1 million and $1.7$24.9 million respectively, of capital expenditures relating to this funding agreement.agreement, respectively.
We continue to explore potential acquisitions. In connection with any acquisition, we may incur additional indebtedness. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, $10.0 million of contingent consideration was paid relating to the PendoTECH acquisition of which $5.6 million is included in financing activities for the amount accrued at the acquisition date and $4.4 million is included in operating activities for the amount not accrued at the acquisition date on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Cash flows used in financing activities are primarily comprised of share repurchases. In accordance with our share repurchase program, we spent $250.0$500.0 million and $275.0$550.0 million on the repurchase of 166,628344,382 shares and 190,593408,901 shares, during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) was enacted on August 16, 2022. The IRA includes provisions imposing a 1% excise tax on net share repurchases that occur after December 31, 2022 with payments expected to commence in 2024, and introduces a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax (CAMT) on adjusted financial statement income. We expect the financial impact of the IRA to be immaterial to our financial statements.

In May 2023 we amended our Credit Agreement to replace all references of LIBOR to SOFR and other non-U.S. dollar references as the interest rate benchmark.
Changes in exchange rates between the currencies in which we generate cash flows and the currencies in which our borrowings are denominated affect our liquidity. In addition, because we borrow in a variety of currencies, our debt balances fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates. Further, we do not have any downgrade triggers relating to ratings from rating agencies that would accelerate the maturity dates of our debt. We were in compliance with our debt covenants as of March 31,June 30, 2023.
In December 2022, we entered into an agreement to issue and sell $150 million 10-year Senior Notes in a private placement. We issued $150 million with a fixed interest rate of 5.45% (5.45% Senior Notes) in March 2023. The 5.45% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 5.45% Senior Notes mature on March 1, 2033. The terms of the 5.45% Senior Notes are consistent with the previous Senior Notes as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. We used the proceeds from the sale of the 5.45% Senior Notes to refinance existing indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes.
In December 2021, we entered into an agreement to issue and sell $300 million 15-year Senior Notes in a private placement. We issued $150 million with a fixed interest rate of 2.81% (2.81% Senior Notes) in March 2022, which will mature in March 2037, and an additional $150 million with a fixed interest rate of 2.91% (2.91% Senior Notes) in September 2022, which will mature in September 2037. We usedwill use the proceeds from the sale of the notes to refinance existing indebtedness and for other general corporate purposes.

terms and conditions which include an interest rate of SARON plus 87.5 basis points. The loans were renewed for one year in April 2023.
Share Repurchase Program
We have $3.2$3.0 billion of remaining availability for our share repurchase program as of March 31,June 30, 2023. The share repurchases are expected to be funded from cash generated from operating activities, borrowings, and cash balances. Repurchases will be made through open market transactions, and the amount and timing of purchases will depend on business and market conditions, the stock price, trading restrictions, the level of acquisition activity, and other factors.
We have purchased 31.231.4 million common shares since the inception of the program in 2004 through March 31,June 30, 2023. During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, we spent $250.0$500.0 million and $275.0$550.0 million on the repurchase of 166,628 shares344,382 and 190,593408,901 shares at an average price per share of $1,511.78$1,464.00 and $1,442.84,$1,345.05, respectively. We also reissued 47,84970,191 shares and 27,79572,408 shares held in treasury forupon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units during the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. In addition, we incurred $1.9 million of excise tax during the three months ended March 31, 2023 related to the Inflation Reduction Act which is reflected as a reduction in shareholders' equity in our consolidated financial statements.
Effect of Currency on Results of Operations
Our earnings are affected by changingchanges in exchange rates. We are most sensitive to changes in the exchange rates betweenbetween the Swiss franc, euro, Chinese renminbi, and U.S. dollar. We have more Swiss franc expenses than we do Swiss franc sales because we develop and manufacture products in Switzerland that we sell globally, and have a number of corporate functions located in Switzerland. When the Swiss franc strengthens against our other trading currencies, particularly the U.S. dollar and euro, our earnings decrease. We also have significantly more sales in the euro than we do expenses. When the euro weakens against the U.S. dollar and Swiss franc, our earnings also decrease. We estimate a 1% strengthening of the Swiss franc against the euro would reduce our earnings before tax by approximately $1.9 million to $2.1 million annually.

We also conduct businessbusiness in many geographies throughout the world, including Asia Pacific, the United Kingdom, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Canada. Fluctuations in these currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar can also affect our operating results. The most significant of these currency exposures is the Chinese renminbi. The impact on our earnings before tax of the Chinese renminbi weakening 1% against the U.S. dollar is a reduction of approximately $3.8 million to $4.3 million annually.
In addition to the effects of exchange rate movements on operating profits, our debt levels can fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates, particularly between the U.S. dollar, the Swiss franc and the euro. Based on our outstanding debt at March 31,June 30, 2023, we estimate that a 5% weakening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in which our debt is denominated would result in an increase of approximately $35.2$35.5 million in the reported U.S. dollar value of our debt.
