NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for the presentation of interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all the normal recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019. These unaudited financial statements should be read in combination with the other Notes in this section; “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appearing in Item 2; and the Consolidated Financial Statements, including the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2018 was derived from audited financial statements.

Note 2. The Business and Nature of Operations

Lannett Company, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “Lannett”) primarily develop, manufacture, package, market and distribute solid oral and extended release (tablets and capsules), topical, nasal and oral solution finished dosage forms of drugs that address a wide range of therapeutic areas. Certain of these products are manufactured by others and distributed by the Company. The Company also manufactures active pharmaceutical ingredients through its Cody Laboratories, Inc. (“Cody Labs”) subsidiary primarily for use in its finished dosage forms. In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company approved a plan to sell the Cody API business. See Note 22 “Assets Held for Sale” for more information.

On November 25, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“KUPI”), the former U.S. specialty generic pharmaceuticals subsidiary of global biopharmaceuticals company UCB S.A. (“UCB”). KUPI is a specialty pharmaceuticals manufacturer focused on the development of products that are difficult to formulate or utilize specialized delivery technologies.

The Company operates pharmaceutical manufacturing plants in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Cody, Wyoming; Carmel, New York and Seymour, Indiana. The Company’s customers include generic pharmaceutical distributors, drug wholesalers, chain drug stores, private label distributors, mail-order pharmacies, other pharmaceutical manufacturers, managed care organizations, hospital buying groups, governmental entities and health maintenance organizations. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company ceased manufacturing functions at its State Road facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Company discontinued distribution from its Townsend Road facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as of January 31, 2019. The Company intends to sell its Townsend Road facility by the end of Fiscal 2019.

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”).

Principles of consolidation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Lannett Company, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Business Combinations

Acquired businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective estimated fair values. The fair values and useful lives assigned to each class of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on, among other factors, the expected future period of benefit of the asset, the various characteristics of the asset and projected future cash flows. Significant judgment is employed in

Table of Contents

determining the assumptions utilized as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent measurement period. Accordingly, changes in assumptions described above could have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions are required in the determination of revenue recognition and sales deductions for estimated chargebacks, rebates, returns and other adjustments including a provision for the Company’s liability under the Medicare Part D program. Additionally, significant estimates and assumptions are required when determining the fair value of long-lived assets, including goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes, contingencies and share-based compensation.

Because of the inherent subjectivity and complexity involved in these estimates and assumptions, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign currency translation

The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, the reporting currency of the Company. The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiary are maintained in local currency and translated into U.S. dollars at the end of each reporting period. Assets and liabilities are translated at period-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The adjustments resulting from the use of differing exchange rates are recorded as part of stockholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under Other income (loss). Amounts recorded due to foreign currency fluctuations are immaterial to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities less than or equal to three months at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist of bank deposits and certificates of deposit that are readily convertible into cash. The Company maintains its cash deposits and cash equivalents at well-known, stable financial institutions. Such amounts frequently exceed insured limits.

Investment securities

The Company’s investment securities consisted of publicly-traded equity securities which were classified as trading investments. Investment securities were recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices from broker or dealer quotations or transparent pricing sources at each reporting date. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under Other income (loss). In May 2018, the Company liquidated the remainder of the investment securities portfolio. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company does not own investment securities.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company continuously monitors collections and payments from its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time balances are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligations to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they are determined to be uncollectible.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are regularly reviewed and write-downs for excess and obsolete inventory are recorded based primarily on current inventory levels, expiration date and estimated sales forecasts.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful lives. Repairs and maintenance costs that do not extend the useful life of the asset are expensed as incurred.

Table of Contents

Intangible Assets

Definite-lived intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization of definite-lived intangible assets is computed on a straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful lives, generally for periods ranging from 10 to 15 years. The Company continually evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but instead are tested at least annually for impairment. Costs to renew or extend the term of a recognized intangible asset are expensed as incurred.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets, including Intangible Assets other than Goodwill

The Company’s long-lived assets primarily consist of property, plant and equipment and definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets. Property, plant and equipment and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (“triggering events”) indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If a triggering event is determined to have occurred, the asset’s carrying value is compared to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows of the asset, then impairment exists. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if events or triggering events indicate that the asset might be impaired.

An impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value, which in most cases is calculated using a discounted cash flow model. Discounted cash flow models are highly reliant on various assumptions which are considered Level 3 inputs, including estimates of future cash flows (including long-term growth rates), discount rates and the probability of achieving the estimated cash flows.

Amounts allocated to in-process research and development in connection with a business combination are recorded at fair value and are considered indefinite-lived intangible assets subject to impairment testing in accordance with the Company’s impairment testing policy for indefinite-lived intangible assets. As products in development are approved for sale, amounts will be allocated to product rights and will be amortized over their estimated useful lives. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over the expected lives of the related assets. The judgments made in determining the estimated fair value of in-process research and development, as well as asset lives, can materially impact our results of operations. The Company’s fair value assessments are highly reliant on various assumptions which are considered Level 3 inputs, including estimates of future cash flows (including long-term growth rates), discount rates and the probability of achieving the estimated cash flows.

Goodwill

Goodwill, which represented the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, was carried at cost. Goodwill was tested for impairment on an annual basis on the first day of the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if events or triggering events indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company utilized a quantitative assessment to determine the fair value of our reporting unit (generic pharmaceuticals) based on market data as well as projected cash flows. If the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeded its fair value, the difference would be recorded as a goodwill impairment, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The Company’s fair value assessments are highly reliant on various assumptions which are considered Level 3 inputs, including estimates of future cash flows (including long-term growth rates), discount rates and the probability of achieving the estimated cash flows. The judgments made in determining the estimated fair value of goodwill can materially impact our results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which superseded ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when (or as) we satisfy our performance obligations by transferring a promised good or service to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration the Company is expected to be entitled. Our revenue consists almost entirely of sales of our pharmaceutical products to customers, whereby we ship product to a customer pursuant to a purchase order. Revenue contracts such as these do not generally give rise to contract assets or contract liabilities because: (i) the underlying contracts generally have only a single performance obligation and (ii) we do not generally receive consideration until the performance obligation is fully satisfied. The new revenue standard impacts the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition by requiring recognition of certain contract manufacturing arrangements to change from “upon shipment or delivery” to “over time”. However, the recognition of these arrangements over time does not currently have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method. Refer to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” section of this footnote for further discussion of the impact of the adoption.

When revenue is recognized, a simultaneous adjustment to gross sales is made for estimated chargebacks, rebates, returns, promotional adjustments and other potential adjustments. These provisions are primarily estimated based on historical experience, future expectations, contractual arrangements with wholesalers and indirect customers and other factors known to management at the time of accrual. Accruals for provisions are presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements as a reduction to gross sales with the corresponding reserve presented as a reduction of accounts receivable or included as rebates payable, depending on the nature of the reserve.

Provisions for chargebacks, rebates, returns and other adjustments require varying degrees of subjectivity. While rebates generally are based on contractual terms and require minimal estimation, chargebacks and returns require management to make more subjective assumptions. Each major category is discussed in detail below:

Chargebacks

The provision for chargebacks is the most significant and complex estimate used in the recognition of revenue. The Company sells its products directly to wholesale distributors, generic distributors, retail pharmacy chains and mail-order pharmacies. The Company also sells its products indirectly to independent pharmacies, managed care organizations, hospitals, nursing homes and group purchasing organizations, collectively referred to as “indirect customers.” The Company enters into agreements with its indirect customers to establish pricing for certain products. The indirect customers then independently select a wholesaler from which to purchase the products. If the price paid by the indirect customers is lower than the price paid by the wholesaler, the Company will provide a credit, called a chargeback, to the wholesaler for the difference between the contractual price with the indirect customers and the wholesaler purchase price. The provision for chargebacks is based on expected sell-through levels by the Company’s wholesale customers to the indirect customers and estimated wholesaler inventory levels. As sales to the large wholesale customers, such as Cardinal Health, AmerisourceBergen and McKesson increase (decrease), the reserve for chargebacks will also generally increase (decrease). However, the size of the increase (decrease) depends on product mix and the amount of sales made to indirect customers with which the Company has specific chargeback agreements. The Company continually monitors the reserve for chargebacks and makes adjustments when management believes that expected chargebacks may differ from the actual chargeback reserve.

Rebates

Rebates are offered to the Company’s key chain drug store, distributor and wholesaler customers to promote customer loyalty and increase product sales. These rebate programs provide customers with credits upon attainment of pre-established volumes or attainment of net sales milestones for a specified period. Other promotional programs are incentive programs offered to the customers. Additionally, as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) enacted in the U.S. in March 2010, the Company participates in a new cost-sharing program for certain Medicare Part D beneficiaries designed primarily for the sale of brand drugs and certain generic drugs if their Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval was granted under a New Drug Application (“NDA”) or 505(b) NDA versus an Abbreviated New Drug application (“ANDA’). Because our drugs used for the treatment of thyroid deficiency and our Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution product were both approved by the FDA as 505(b)(2) NDAs, they are considered “brand” drugs for purposes of the PPACA. Drugs purchased within the Medicare Part D coverage gap (commonly referred to as the “donut hole”) result in additional rebates. The Company estimates the reserve for rebates and other promotional credit programs based on the specific terms in each agreement when revenue is recognized. The reserve for rebates increases (decreases) as sales to certain wholesale and retail customers increase (decrease). However, since these rebate programs are not identical for all customers, the size of the reserve will depend on the mix of sales to customers that are eligible to receive rebates.

Returns

Consistent with industry practice, the Company has a product returns policy that allows customers to return product within a specified time period prior to and subsequent to the product’s expiration date in exchange for a credit to be applied to future purchases. The Company’s policy requires that the customer obtain pre-approval from the Company for any qualifying return. The Company estimates its provision for returns based on historical experience, changes to business practices, credit terms and any extenuating circumstances known to management. While historical experience has allowed for reasonable estimations in the past, future returns may or may not follow historical trends. The Company continually monitors the reserve for returns and makes adjustments when management believes that actual product returns may differ from the established reserve. Generally, the reserve for returns increases as net sales increase.

Other Adjustments

Other adjustments consist primarily of “price adjustments, also known as “shelf-stock adjustments” and “price protections,” which are both credits issued to reflect increases or decreases in the invoice or contract prices of the Company’s products. In the case of a price decrease, a credit is given for product remaining in customer’s inventories at the time of the price reduction. Contractual price protection results in a similar credit when the invoice or contract prices of the Company’s products increase, effectively allowing customers to purchase products at previous prices for a specified period of time. Amounts recorded for estimated shelf-stock adjustments and price protections are based upon specified terms with direct customers, estimated changes in market prices and estimates of inventory held by customers. The Company regularly monitors these and other factors and evaluates the reserve as additional information becomes available. Other adjustments also include prompt payment discounts and “failure-to-supply” adjustments. If the Company is unable to fulfill certain customer orders, the customer can purchase products from our competitors at their prices and charge the Company for any difference in our contractually agreed upon prices.

Cost of Sales, including Amortization of Intangibles

Cost of sales includes all costs related to bringing products to their final selling destination, which includes direct and indirect costs, such as direct material, labor and overhead expenses. Additionally, cost of sales includes product royalties, depreciation, amortization and costs to renew or extend recognized intangible assets, freight charges and other shipping and handling expenses.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred, including all production costs until a drug candidate is approved by the FDA. Research and development expenses include costs associated with internal projects as well as costs associated with third-party research and development contracts.

Contingencies

Loss contingencies, including litigation-related contingencies, are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations when the Company concludes that a loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Legal fees for litigation-related matters are expensed as incurred and included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under the Selling, general and administrative expenses line item.

Restructuring Costs

The Company records charges associated with approved restructuring plans to remove duplicative headcount and infrastructure associated with business acquisitions or to simplify business processes. Restructuring charges can include severance costs to eliminate a specified number of employees, infrastructure charges to vacate facilities and consolidate operations and contract cancellation costs. The Company records restructuring charges based on estimated employee terminations, site closure and consolidation plans. The Company accrues severance and other employee separation costs under these actions when it is probable that a liability exists and the amount is reasonably estimable.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based compensation costs are recognized over the vesting period, using a straight-line method, based on the fair value of the instrument on the date of grant less an estimate for expected forfeitures. The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of stock options, the stock price on the grant date to value restricted stock and the Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value of performance-based shares. The Black-Scholes valuation and Monte-Carlo simulation models include various assumptions, including the expected volatility, the expected life of the award, dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate as well as performance assumptions of peer companies. These assumptions involve inherent uncertainties based on market

Table of Contents

conditions which are generally outside the Company’s control. Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on share-based compensation costs recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Self-Insurance

Effective January 1, 2017, the Company self-insures for certain employee medical and prescription benefits. The Company also maintains stop loss coverage with third party insurers to limit its total liability exposure. The liability for self-insured risks is primarily calculated using independent third-party actuarial valuations which take into account actual claims, claims growth and claims incurred but not yet reported. Actual experience, including claim frequency and severity as well as health-care inflation, could result in different liabilities than the amounts currently recorded. The liability for self-insured risks under this plan as of December 31, 2018 totaled $2.9 million and was not material to the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2018.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes as prescribed by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense (benefit) is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are adjusted to recognize the effects of changes in tax laws or enacted tax rates in the period during which they are signed into law. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization are the Company’s forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, a valuation allowance is required when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized through generating sufficient future taxable income. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income in applicable tax jurisdictions could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets and could result in an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate on future earnings.

The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position claimed on a tax return only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The authoritative accounting standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.

On December 22, 2017, President Trump signed the Tax Cut and Jobs Act legislation (“2017 Tax Reform”) into law, which included a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including corporate tax rates, business deductions and international tax provisions. Many of these provisions significantly differ from the then-current U.S. tax law, resulting in pervasive financial reporting implications. As a result of the new law, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to address the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of 2017 Tax Reform. SAB 118 requires registrants to report the tax effects of 2017 Tax Reform, inclusive of provisional amounts for which the accounting is incomplete but a reasonable estimate can be determined. SAB 118 also allows for a measurement period of up to one year in cases where a registrant reports a provisional amount or is unable to reasonably estimate the impact of 2017 Tax Reform. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company finalized the provisional amounts without any further adjustments, in accordance with the expiration of the SAB 118 measurement period.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period including additional shares that would have been outstanding related to potentially dilutive securities. These potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options, unvested restricted stock and performance-based shares. Anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation. Dilutive shares are also excluded in the calculation in periods of net loss because the effect of including such securities would be anti-dilutive.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) includes all changes in equity during a period except those that resulted from investments by or distributions to the Company’s stockholders. Other comprehensive income (loss) refers to gains and losses that are included in comprehensive income (loss), but excluded from income (loss) as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, which created ASC Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The authoritative guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Based on a review of the contracts representing a substantial portion of our revenues, which is primarily generated from product sales, the Company determined that the updated guidance does not have a material impact on our disclosures or the timing and recognition of our revenues. Under the new standard, the Company estimates certain amounts as variable consideration, specifically any “failure-to-supply” adjustments at the point of product sale in future periods.

The new revenue standard also impacts the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition by requiring recognition of certain contract manufacturing arrangements to change from “upon shipment or delivery” to “over time”. However, the recognition of these arrangements over time does not currently have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

The cumulative impact of the adoption of ASC 606 resulted in a $2.3 million adjustment, net of tax, to opening retained earnings on July 1, 2018.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and liabilities on its balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period and requires a modified retrospective application, with early adoption permitted. In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, Leases — Narrow Scope Improvements for lessors, which allows entities to choose an additional transition method of adoption, under which an entity initially applies the new standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earinings in the period of adoption. The Company is currently in the process of assessing the impact this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows — Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The standard was adopted on July 1, 2018 and did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Restructuring Charges

Cody Restructuring Program

On June 29, 2018, the Company announced a restructuring plan with respect to Cody Labs (the “Cody Restructuring Plan”). The plan focuses on a more select set of opportunities which will result in streamlined operations, improved efficiencies and a reduced cost structure. The Company currently estimates that it will incur approximately $4.5 million of total costs to implement the Cody Restructuring Plan, comprised primarily of approximately $3.0 million of severance and employee-related costs.

The expenses associated with the Cody Restructuring Plan included in restructuring expenses (credits) during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended

2016 Restructuring Program

On February 1, 2016, in connection with the acquisition of KUPI, the Company announced a plan related to the future integration of KUPI and the Company’s operations (the “2016 Restructuring Program”). The plan focuses on the closure of KUPI’s corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, research and development and distribution functions. The Company estimates that it will incur an aggregate of up to approximately $20.0 million in restructuring charges for actions that have been announced or communicated since the 2016 Restructuring Program began. Of this amount, approximately $11.0 million relates to employee separation costs, approximately $1.0 million relates to contract termination costs and approximately $8.0 million relates to facility closure costs and other actions. The 2016 Restructuring Program is expected to be completed by the end of Fiscal 2019.

The expenses associated with the restructuring program included in restructuring expenses during the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were as follows:

For the six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a provision for chargebacks, rebates (including rebates presented as rebates payable), returns, and other deductions of $612.6 million, $143.6 million, $18.7 million, and $34.6 million, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a provision for chargebacks, rebates (including rebates presented as rebates payable), returns, and other deductions of $474.9 million, $156.1 million, $14.5 million, and $28.6 million, respectively.

The following table identifies the activity and ending balances of each major category of revenue-related reserve for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

Reserve Category (In thousands)	Chargebacks			Rebates			Returns			Other			Total
Balance at June 30, 2017	$	79,537		$	87,616		$	42,135		$	11,096		$	220,384
Current period provision	474,882			156,073			14,541			28,623			674,119
Credits issued during the period	(499,959		)	(157,071		)	(11,881		)	(21,713		)	(690,624		)
Balance at December 31, 2017	$	54,460		$	86,618		$	44,795		$	18,006		$	203,879

For the three months ending December 31, 2018 and 2017, as a percentage of gross sales the provision for chargebacks was 53.0% and 44.4%, the provision for rebates was 12.5% and 15.7%, the provision for returns was 1.8% and 0.8% and the provision for other adjustments was 3.3% and 3.3%, respectively.

For the six months ending December 31, 2018 and 2017, as a percentage of gross sales the provision for chargebacks was 53.5% and 47.3%, the provision for rebates was 12.5% and 15.6%, the provision for returns was 1.6% and 1.4%, and the provision for other adjustments was 3.0% and 2.9%, respectively.

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 which resulted in a $3.2 million pre-tax adjustment to opening retained earnings and accounts receivable, of which $3.5 million related to “failure-to-supply” reserves offset by $0.3 million related to the timing of recognition of certain contract manufacturing arrangements.

The decrease in the chargebacks reserve from June 30, 2018 to December 31, 2018 was primarily the result of increased customer orders in June 2018 in advance of a mid-week holiday as well as a related maintenance shutdown of the Company’s Seymour, Indiana manufacturing facility in the first week of July 2018. The Amneal Distribution and Transition Support Agreement (the “Amneal Agreement”), which shifted the Company’s sales of Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets directly to Amneal, also contributed to the decrease in the chargebacks reserve. The activity in the “Other” category for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 includes, shelf-stock, shipping and other sales adjustments including prompt payment discounts and “failure-to-supply” adjustments. Historically, we have not recorded any material amounts in the current period related to reversals or additions of prior period reserves. If the Company were to record a material reversal or addition of any prior period reserve amount, it would be separately disclosed.

In addition, as part of the held for sale classification, the Company is required to record the assets of the Cody API business at fair value less costs to sell. The Company performed a fair value analysis which resulted in a $29.9 million impairment of the Cody API property, plant and equipment assets. See Note 22 “Assets Held for Sale” for more information. During the three months ended December 31, 2018, the Company had no impairment charges related to property, plant and equipment.

Property, plant and equipment, net included amounts held in foreign countries in the amount of $1.7 million and $1.1 million at December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

The Company’s financial instruments recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt obligations. Included in cash and cash equivalents are certificates of deposit with maturities less than or equal to three months at the date of purchase and money market funds. The carrying value of certain financial instruments, primarily cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their estimated fair values based upon the short-term nature of their maturity dates.

The Company follows the authoritative guidance of ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” Fair value is defined 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 on the measurement date. The authoritative guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are entirely within Level 1 of the hierarchy as defined below:

Level 1 — Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity can access at the measurement date.

Table of Contents

Level 2 — Directly or indirectly observable inputs, other than quoted prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; or model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are material to the fair value of the asset or liability. Financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation are examples of Level 3 assets and liabilities.

If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Reported, at Fair Value

The fair value of our long-term debt was approximately $727 million and $893 million as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively. We estimate the fair value of our debt utilizing market quotations for debt that have quoted prices in active markets. Since our debt does not trade on a daily basis in an active market, the fair value estimates are based on market observable inputs based on borrowing rates currently available for debt with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2).

Note 9. Investment Securities

The Company uses the specific identification method to determine the cost of securities sold, which consisted entirely of equity securities classified as trading.

In May 2018, the Company liquidated the remainder of the investment securities portfolio. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company does not own investment securities.

The Company had a net gain on investment securities of $2.0 million during the three months ended December 31, 2017, which included an unrealized gain related to securities still held at December 31, 2017 of $1.2 million.

The Company had a net gain on investment securities of $2.8 million during the six months ended December 31, 2017, which included an unrealized gain related to securities still held at December 31, 2017 of $1.1 million.

Note 10. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

On August 17, 2018, JSP notified the Company that it will not extend or renew the JSP Distribution Agreement when the current term expires on March 23, 2019. The Company determined that JSP’s decision represented a triggering event under U.S. GAAP to perform an analysis to determine the potential for impairment of goodwill. On October 4, 2018, the Company completed the analysis based on market data and concluded a full impairment of goodwill was required.

Note 12. Legal, Regulatory Matters and Contingencies

Connecticut Attorney General Inquiry

In July 2014, the Company received interrogatories and subpoena from the State of Connecticut Office of the Attorney General concerning its investigation into the pricing of digoxin. According to the subpoena, the Connecticut Attorney General is investigating whether anyone engaged in any activities that resulted in (a) fixing, maintaining or controlling prices of digoxin or (b) allocating and dividing customers or territories relating to the sale of digoxin in violation of Connecticut antitrust law. In June 2016, the Connecticut Attorney General issued interrogatories and a subpoena to an employee of the Company in order to gain access to documents and responses previously supplied to the Department of Justice. In December 2016, the Connecticut Attorney General, joined by numerous other State Attorneys General, filed a civil complaint alleging that six pharmaceutical companies engaged in anti-competitive behavior related to doxycycline hyclate and gliburide. The Company was not named in the action and does not compete on the products that formed the basis of the complaint. The complaint was later transferred for pretrial purposes to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania as part of a multidistrict litigation captioned In re: Generic Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation. On October 31, 2017, the state Attorneys General filed a motion in the District Court for leave to amend their complaint to add numerous additional defendants, including the Company, and claims relating to 13 additional drugs. The claim relating to Lannett involves alleged price-fixing for one drug, doxycycline monohydrate, but does not involve the pricing for digoxin. The state Attorneys General also allege that all defendants were part of an overarching, industry-wide conspiracy to allocate markets and fix prices generally. The Court granted that motion on June 5, 2018. The state Attorneys General filed their amended complaint on June 15, 2018. None of the defendants, including the Company, has responded yet to the amended complaint.

The Company maintains that it acted in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and continues to cooperate with the Connecticut Attorney General investigation.

Federal Investigation into the Generic Pharmaceutical Industry

The Company and certain affiliated individuals and customers have been served with grand jury subpoenas relating to a federal investigation of the generic pharmaceutical industry into possible violations of the Sherman Act. The subpoenas request corporate documents of the Company relating to corporate, financial and employee information, communications or correspondence with competitors regarding the sale of generic prescription medications and the marketing, sale, or pricing of certain products, generally for the period of 2005 through the dates of the subpoenas.

The Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the Department of Justice on May 14, 2018. The CID requests information regarding allegations that the generic pharmaceutical industry engaged in market allocation, price fixing, payment of illegal remuneration and submission of false claims. The CID requests information from 2009-present. The Company is in the process of responding to the CID.

Based on reviews performed to date by outside counsel, the Company currently believes that it has acted in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and continues to cooperate with the federal investigation.

Texas Medicaid Investigation

In August 2015, KUPI received a letter from the Texas Office of the Attorney General alleging that it had inaccurately reported certain price information in violation of the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act. UCB, KUPI’s previous parent company is handling the defense and is evaluating the allegations and cooperating with the Texas Attorney General’s Office. Per the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and UCB (“Stock Purchase Agreement”) dated September 2, 2015, the Company is fully

Table of Contents

indemnified for any pre-acquisition amounts. In December 2018, KUPI and the State of Texas settled the allegations for the sum of $8.0 million, which is fully indemnified by UCB. UCB forwarded the $8.0 million to KUPI in December 2018 and, following its receipt of the fully executed settlement agreement, KUPI forwarded the settlement funds to the State of Texas in January 2019.

Government Pricing

During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, the Company completed a contract compliance review, for the period January 1, 2012 through June 30, 2016, for one of KUPI’s government-entity customers. As a result of the review, the Company identified certain commercial customer prices and other terms that were not properly disclosed to the government-entity resulting in potential overcharges. As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company’s best estimate of the liability for potential overcharges was approximately $9.3 million. For the period January 1, 2012 through November 24, 2015 (“the pre-acquisition period”), the Company is fully indemnified per the Stock Purchase Agreement. Accordingly, the Company has recorded an indemnification asset and related liability of $8.3 million related to the pre-acquisition period. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of this matter will have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

EPA Violation Notice

On July 13, 2017, the United States Department of Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) sent a Finding of Violation to KUPI alleging several violations of national emissions standards for hazardous air pollutants at KUPI’s Seymour, Indiana facility. The EPA and KUPI have entered into an agreed Administrative Consent Order and Consent Assessment and Final Order to resolve the alleged violations, whereby KUPI made a payment of $60,000 to the EPA and escrowed the sum of $225,000 to be used to fund an environmental project. The Orders were fully executed on December 31, 2018.

Private Antitrust and Consumer Protection Litigation

The Company and certain competitors have been named as defendants in a number of lawsuits filed in 2016 and 2017 alleging that the Company and certain generic pharmaceutical manufacturers have conspired to fix prices of generic digoxin, levothyroxine, ursodiol and baclofen. These cases are part of a larger group of more than 100 lawsuits generally alleging that over 30 generic pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors conspired to fix prices for at least 18 different generic drugs in violation of the federal Sherman Act, various state antitrust laws, and various state consumer protection statutes. The United States also has been granted leave to intervene in the cases. On April 6, 2017, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (the “JPML”) ordered that all of the cases alleging price-fixing for generic drugs be consolidated for pretrial proceedings in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania under the caption In re: Generic Pharmaceuticals Pricing Antitrust Litigation. The various plaintiffs are grouped into three categories — Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs, End Payer Plaintiffs, and Indirect Reseller Purchasers — and filed Consolidated Amended Complaints (“CACs”) against the Company and the other defendants on August 15, 2017.

The CACs naming the Company as a defendant involve generic digoxin, levothyroxine, ursodiol and baclofen. Pursuant to a court-ordered schedule grouping the 18 different drug cases into three separate tranches, the Company and other generic pharmaceutical manufacturer defendants on October 6, 2017 filed joint and individual motions to dismiss the CACs involving the six drugs in the first tranche, including digoxin. On October 16, 2018, the Court (with one exception) denied defendants’ motions to dismiss plaintiffs’ Sherman Act claims with respect to the drugs in the first tranche. Defendants’ motions to dismiss plaintiffs’ state law claims with respect to those drugs remain pending.

On January 22, 2018, three opt-out direct purchasers filed a complaint alleging an overarching conspiracy and individual conspiracies on behalf of the Company and numerous other defendants to fix the prices of and allocate markets for at least 30 different drugs, including digoxin, doxycycline, levothyroxine, ursodiol and baclofen. On August 3, 2018, another opt-out direct purchaser filed a complaint alleging an overarching conspiracy and individual conspiracies on behalf of the Company and numerous other defendants to fix the prices of and allocate markets for 16 different drugs, including digoxin, doxycycline, levothyroxine, ursodiol and baclofen. On January 16, 2019, another opt-out direct purchaser filed a complaint alleging an overarching conspiracy and individual conspiracies on behalf of the Company and numerous other defendants to fix the prices of and allocate markets for the 30 different drugs, including digoxin, doxycycline, levothyroxine, ursodiol, baclofen and acetazolamide. None of the defendants, including the Company, has responded yet to the opt-out complaints.

In addition to the lawsuits brought by private plaintiffs, the Attorneys General of 48 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico have filed parens patriae lawsuits alleging price-fixing conspiracies by various generic pharmaceutical manufacturers. The JPML has consolidated the suits by the state Attorneys General in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania as part of the multidistrict litigation. The original lawsuits did not name the Company, but the state Attorneys General filed an amended complaint on June 5, 2018 to add numerous additional defendants, including the Company, and claims relating to 13 additional drugs. The claim relating to Lannett involves alleged price-fixing for one drug, doxycycline monohydrate, although the state Attorneys General allege that all defendants

Table of Contents

were part of an overarching, industry-wide conspiracy to allocate markets and fix prices generally. None of the defendants, including the Company, has responded yet to the amended complaint.

Following the lead of the state Attorneys General, the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs, End Payer Plaintiffs and Indirect Reseller Plaintiffs have filed their own complaints also alleging an overarching conspiracy, making similar allegations to those contained in the state Attorneys General complaint, relating to 14 generic drugs in the End Payer complaint and 15 generic drugs in the Indirect Reseller complaint. The End Payer Plaintiffs filed their complaint on June 7, 2018, the Indirect Reseller Plaintiffs filed their complaint on June 18, 2018, and the Direct Purchaser Plaintiffs filed their complaint on June 22, 2018. Although the complaints allege an overarching conspiracy with respect to all of the drugs identified, the specific allegations related to drugs Lannett makes involve acetazolamide and doxycycline monohydrate. None of the defendants, including the Company, has responded yet to these complaints.

On September 25, 2018, two other alleged direct purchasers filed a purported class action complaint alleging an overreaching, industry-wide horizontal and vertical conspiracy involving the company, other generic pharmaceutical manufacturers, and various pharmaceutical distributors to allocate markets and fix prices generally for a variety of generic drugs. The case has been added to the multidistrict litigation. On December 21, 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. None of the defendants, including the Company, has responded yet to the amended complaint.

The Company believes that it acted in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Accordingly, the Company disputes the allegations set forth in these class actions.

Shareholder Litigation

In November 2016, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and two of its officers claiming that the Company damaged the purported class by including in its securities filings false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s drug pricing methodologies and internal controls. An amended complaint was filed in May 2017, and the Company filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint in September 2017. In December 2017, counsel for the putative class filed a second amended complaint, and the Court denied as moot the Company’s motion to dismiss the first amended complaint. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint in February 2018. In July 2018, the court granted the Company’s motion to dismiss the second amended complaint. In September 2018, counsel for the putative class filed a third amended complaint. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the third amended complaint in November 2018. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the suit at this time.

In July 2018, a shareholder derivative complaint was filed against the Company and certain of its current and former directors and executives in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The derivative complaint alleges that the Company engaged in an illegal conspiracy to fix generic drug prices and that the Company’s directors and executives violated their fiduciary duties by allowing the Company to violate the applicable laws and regulations and failing to take any action to curtail management’s deliberate price-fixing scheme. The derivative complaint includes causes of action for violation of Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, violation of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, violation of Section 29(a) of the Exchange Act, and for breach of fiduciary duty. In October 2018, the Court issued an order stating the derivative suit for all purposes for a period of 180 days or until the Court issues an order on the motion to dismiss the third amended complaint filed in the matter of Utesch v. Lannett Co., Inc., et al., No. 2:16cv-05932, whichever is later. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the suit at this time.

In October 2018, a putative class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and two of its officers in the federal court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, alleging that the Company, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer damaged the purported class by making false and misleading statements in connection with the possible renewal of the JSP Distribution Agreement. The Company and the corporate executives named in the complaint deny that they made any false or misleading statements. In December 2018, counsel for the putative class filed an amended complaint. The Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint in January 2019. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this suit at this time.

In December 2018, the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors received a letter sent on behalf of two purported shareholders demanding that the Company’s Board of Directors investigate and commence legal proceedings against certain former and/or current directors, officers, and agents of the Company relating to alleged breaches of fiduciary duties, corporate waste, and unjust enrichment. The Company and the Company’s Board of Directors responded to the demand letter by requesting that the purported shareholders provide proof of their status and shareholders of the Company. The Company and the Company’s Board of Directors recently received a reply to the letter sent in response to the demand letter and are reviewing the information provided. At this time the Company cannot reasonably predict what outcome, if any, will follow from the Company and the Company’s Board of Director’s receipt of the demand letter.

Genus Life Sciences

In December 2018, Genus Lifesciences, Inc. (“Genus”) sued the Company, Cody Labs, and others in California federal court, alleging violations of the Lanham Act, Sherman Act, and California false advertising law. Genus received FDA approval for a cocaine hydrochloride product in December 2018, and its claims are premised in part on allegations that the Company falsely advertises its unapproved cocaine hydrochloride product, C-Topical. The Company denies that it is falsely advertising its C-Topical product and continues to market its unapproved product relying on the Guidance for FDA Staff and Industry, Marketed Unapproved Drugs — Compliance Policy Guide, pending approval of its 505(b)(2) application. The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of this suit at this time.

Patent Infringement (Paragraph IV Certification)

There is substantial litigation in the pharmaceutical industry with respect to the manufacture, use and sale of new products which are the subject of conflicting patent and intellectual property claims. Certain of these claims relate to paragraph IV certifications, which allege that an innovator patent is invalid or would not be infringed upon by the manufacture, use, or sale of the new drug.

Zomig®

The Company filed with the FDA an ANDA No. 206350, along with a paragraph IV certification, alleging that the two patents associated with the Zomig® nasal spray product (U.S. Patent No. 6,750,237 and U.S. Patent No. 67,220,767) are invalid.

In July 2014, AstraZeneca AB, AstraZeneca UK Limited and Impax Laboratories, Inc. filed two patent infringement lawsuits in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that the Company’s filing of ANDA No. 206350 constitutes an act of patent infringement and seeking a declaration that the two patents at issue are valid and infringed.

In September 2014, the Company filed a motion to dismiss one patent infringement lawsuit for lack of standing and responded to the second lawsuit by denying that any valid patent claim would be infringed. In the second lawsuit, the Company also counterclaimed for a declaratory judgment that the patent claims are invalid and not infringed. The Court has consolidated the two actions and denied the motion to dismiss the first action without prejudice.

In July 2015, the Company filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) a Petition for Inter Partes Review of each of the patents in suit seeking to reject as invalid all claims of the patents in suit. The USPTO has issued a decision denying initiation of the Inter Partes Review.

A trial was conducted in September 2016. The Court issued its decision on March 29, 2017, finding that Lannett did not prove that the patents at issue are invalid. The Company has appealed the decision. All briefing to the appellate court has been submitted, and oral argument before the appellate court was conducted on April 5, 2018. The appellate court issued an opinion on June 28, 2018, upholding the decision of the District Court. The Company requested a rehearing by the appellate court on August 13, 2018. The appellate court denied the request on September 14, 2018, and issued its mandate terminating the appeal on September 21, 2018.

Other Litigation Matters

The Company is also subject to various legal proceedings arising out of the normal course of its business including, but not limited to, product liability, intellectual property, patent infringement claims and antitrust matters. It is not possible to predict the outcome of these various proceedings. An adverse determination in any of these proceedings in the future could have a significant impact on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company.

Other Commitment

During the third quarter of Fiscal 2017, the Company signed an agreement with a company operating in the pharmaceutical business, under which the Company agreed to provide up to $15.0 million in revolving loans, which expires in seven years and bears interest at 2.0%, for the purpose of expansion and other business needs. The decision to provide any portion of the revolving loan is at the Company’s sole discretion. Prior to the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company had the option to convert the first $7.5 million into a 50% ownership interest in the entity. The board of the entity is comprised of five members, one of which is an employee of the Company.

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company sold 50% of the outstanding loan to a third party for $5.6 million and, in addition to assigning 50% of all right, title and interest in the loan and loan documents, the Company relinquished its right to convert a portion of the outstanding loan balance to an equity interest in the entity. As of December 31, 2018, $5.8 million was outstanding under the revolving loan and is included in other assets. In addition to the loan repayment, the agreement was amended to eliminate the Company’s ability to convert the outstanding loan balance into an ownership interest. Based on the guidance set forth in ASC 810-10 Consolidation, the Company has concluded that it has a variable interest in the entity. However, the Company is not the primary beneficiary to the entity and as such, is not required to consolidate the entity’s results of operations.

Note 14. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

The Company’s Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss was comprised of the following components as of December 31, 2018 and 2017:

Note 15. Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

A dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share is required on the face of the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations as well as a reconciliation of the computation of basic earnings per common share to diluted earnings per common share. Basic earnings (loss) per common share excludes the dilutive impact of potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed using the treasury stock method and includes the effect of potential dilution from the exercise of outstanding stock options and treats unvested restricted stock and performance-based shares as if they were vested. Potentially dilutive securities have been excluded in the weighted average number of common shares used for the calculation of earnings per share in periods of net loss because the effect of including such securities would be anti-dilutive. A reconciliation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share was as follows:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands, except share and per share data)	2018		2017

Net income	$	12,362	$	14,022

Basic weighted average common shares outstanding	37,761,176		37,066,902
Effect of potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards	1,351,371		1,223,456
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	39,112,547		38,290,358

Earnings per common share:
Basic	$	0.33	$	0.38
Diluted	$	0.32	$	0.37

	Six Months Ended December 31,
(In thousands, except share and per share data)	2018			2017

Net income (loss)	$	(275,166	)	$	27,279

Basic weighted average common shares outstanding	37,674,200			37,029,483
Effect of potentially dilutive stock options and restricted stock awards	—			1,058,343
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	37,674,200			38,087,826

Earnings (loss) per common share:
Basic	$	(7.30	)	$	0.74
Diluted	$	(7.30	)	$	0.72

The number of anti-dilutive shares that have been excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were 540 thousand and 3.0 million, respectively. The number of anti-dilutive shares that have been excluded in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were 2.2 million and 3.0 million, respectively.

Note 16. Warrant

In connection with the KUPI acquisition on November 25, 2015, Lannett issued to UCB Manufacturing a warrant to purchase up to a total of 2.5 million shares of Lannett’s common stock (the “Warrant”).

The Warrant had a term of three years (expiring November 25, 2018) and an exercise price of $48.90 per share, subject to customary adjustments, including for stock splits, dividends and combinations. The Warrant also contained a “weighted average” anti-dilution adjustment provision. The fair value included as part of the total consideration transferred to UCB at the acquisition date was $29.9 million. The fair value assigned to the Warrant was determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company concluded that the warrant was indexed to its own stock and therefore the Warrant was classified as an equity instrument. On November 25, 2018, the Warrant expired and was not exercised.

Note 17. Share-Based Compensation

At December 31, 2018, the Company had two share-based employee compensation plans (the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan “LTIP” and the 2014 “LTIP”). Together these plans authorized an aggregate total of 4.5 million shares to be issued. The plans have a total of 615 thousand shares available for future issuances. On January 23, 2019, the shareholders of the Company approved an Amendment to and Restatement of the 2014 LTIP to increase the amount of shares authorized to be issued by 2.0 million shares.

The Company issues share-based compensation awards with a vesting period ranging up to 3 years and a maximum contractual term of 10 years. The Company issues new shares of stock when stock options are exercised. As of December 31, 2018, there was $14.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation awards. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

Stock Options

The Company measures share-based compensation cost for options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table presents the weighted average assumptions used to estimate fair values of the stock options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

	Six Months Ended
	December 31, 2018			December 31, 2017
Risk-free interest rate	2.9		%	1.9		%
Expected volatility	58.4		%	57.4		%
Expected dividend yield	—		%	—		%
Forfeiture rate	6.5		%	6.5		%
Expected term (in years)	5.3 years			5.4 years
Weighted average fair value	$	6.52		$	9.06

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of our common shares during the historical period equal to the expected term of the option. The Company uses historical information to estimate the expected term, which represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for the period equal to the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The forfeiture rate assumption is the estimated annual rate at which unvested awards are expected to be forfeited during the vesting period. This assumption is based on our actual forfeiture rate on historical awards. Periodically, management will assess whether it is necessary to adjust the estimated rate to reflect changes in actual forfeitures or changes in expectations. Additionally, the expected dividend yield is equal to zero, as the Company has not historically issued and has no immediate plans to issue, a dividend.

A stock option roll-forward as of December 31, 2018 and changes during the six months then ended, is presented below:

(In thousands, except for weighted average price and life data)	Awards		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (yrs.)

Vested and expected to vest at December 31, 2018	752		$	16.74	$	170	5.1
Exercisable at December 31, 2018	648		$	16.84	$	170	4.4

Restricted Stock

The Company measures restricted stock compensation costs based on the stock price at the grant date less an estimate for expected forfeitures. The annual forfeiture rate used to calculate compensation expense was 6.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

A summary of restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2018 and changes during the six months then ended, is presented below:

(In thousands, except for weighted average price and life data)	Awards		Weighted Average Grant - date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Non-vested at June 30, 2018	704		$	20.06

Forfeited	(94	)	$	14.33
Non-vested at December 31, 2018	1,397		$	11.93

Performance-Based Shares

On September 22, 2017 and July 30, 2018, the Company approved and granted performance-based awards to certain key executives. The stock-settled awards will vest based on relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) over a three-year period. The Company measures share-based compensation cost for TSR awards using a Monte-Carlo simulation model.

A summary of performance-based share awards as of December 31, 2018 and changes during the current fiscal year, is presented below:

(In thousands, except for weighted average price and life data)	Awards	Weighted Average Grant - date Fair Value		Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Non-vested at December 31, 2018	72	$	19.92

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In February 2003, the Company’s stockholders approved an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”). Employees eligible to participate in the ESPP may purchase shares of the Company’s stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the calendar quarter or the last day of the calendar quarter. Under the ESPP, employees can authorize the Company to withhold up to 10% of their compensation during any quarterly offering period, subject to certain limitations. The ESPP was implemented on April 1, 2003 and is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Board of Directors authorized an aggregate total of 1.1 million shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the ESPP. During the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, 95 thousand shares and 28 thousand shares were issued under the ESPP, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, 702 thousand total cumulative shares have been issued under the ESPP.

The following table presents the allocation of share-based compensation costs recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations by financial statement line item:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	December 31,				December 31,
(In thousands)	2018		2017		2018		2017
Selling, general and administrative expenses	$	1,095	$	1,926	$	3,309	$	3,713

Note 18. Employee Benefit Plan

The Company has a 401k defined contribution plan (the “Plan”) covering substantially all employees. Pursuant to the Plan provisions, the Company is required to make matching contributions equal to 50% of each employee’s contribution, not to exceed 4% of the employee’s compensation for the Plan year. Contributions to the Plan during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $445 thousand and $458 thousand, respectively. Contributions to the Plan during the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

Note 19. Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense (benefit) is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

The federal, state and local income tax expense for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $2.6 million compared to $18.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were 17.6% and 56.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was lower compared to the three months ended December 31, 2017 primarily due to the application of 2017 Tax Reform in the prior-year period, which resulted in a revaluation of the Company’s net long term deferred tax assets. In addition, the federal statutory tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was 21% compared to a blended federal statutory tax rate of 28% in the prior-year period.

The federal, state and local income tax benefit for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was $73.0 million compared to income tax expense of $25.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017. The effective tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were 21.0% and 48.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was lower compared to the six months ended December 31, 2017 primarily due to the application of 2017 Tax Reform in the prior-year period, which resulted in a revaluation of the Company’s net long term deferred tax assets. In addition, the federal statutory tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was 21% compared to a blended federal statutory tax rate of 28% in the prior-year period.

As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company has total unrecognized tax benefits of $2.2 million and 2.5 million, respectively, which would impact the Company’s effective tax rate if recognized. As a result of the positions taken during the period, the Company has not recorded any interest and penalties for the period ended December 31, 2018 in the statement of operations and no cumulative interest and penalties have been recorded either in the Company’s statement of financial position as of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018. The Company will recognize interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and any related penalties in operating expenses.

As of December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the Company had net long term deferred tax assets of $100.0 million and $22.1 million, respectively. The significant increase was primarily a result of the goodwill impairment charge recorded in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, which negatively impacted book income, but is excluded from the calculation of taxable income.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and various states. The Company’s tax returns for Fiscal Year 2014 and prior generally are no longer subject to review as such years generally are closed. The Company’s Fiscal Year 2016 federal return is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). The Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of the examination at this time. In July 2018, the Company was notified that the IRS will also expand their examination to include the Company’s Fiscal 2015 and Fiscal 2017 federal returns. In October 2018, the Company was notified that the State of Pennsylvania will conduct a routine field audit of the Company’s Fiscal 2016 and Fiscal 2017 corporate tax returns.

Note 20. Related Party Transactions

The Company had sales of $1.0 million and $1.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to a generic distributor, Auburn Pharmaceutical Company (“Auburn”), which is a member of the Premier Buying Group. Sales to Auburn for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $1.5 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Jeffrey Farber, a current board member, is the owner of Auburn. Accounts receivable includes amounts due from Auburn of $849 thousand and $585 thousand at December 31, 2018 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

See Note 13 “Commitments” for more information. Accounts payable includes amounts due to the variable interest entity of $58 thousand as of June 30, 2018. There were no amounts due to the variable interest entity as of December 31, 2018.

Note 21. Material Contracts with Suppliers

Jerome Stevens Pharmaceuticals Distribution Agreement:

The Company’s primary finished goods inventory supplier is JSP, in Bohemia, New York. Purchases of finished goods inventory from JSP accounted for approximately 34% and 39% of the Company’s inventory purchases in the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Purchases of finished goods inventory from JSP accounted for approximately 33% and 36% of the Company’s inventory purchases in the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

On August 19, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with JSP to extend its initial contract to continue as the exclusive distributor in the United States of three JSP products: Butalbital, Aspirin, Caffeine with Codeine Phosphate Capsules USP; Digoxin Tablets USP; and Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets USP. The amendment to the original agreement extends the initial contract, which was due to expire on March 22, 2014, for five years through March 2019. In connection with the amendment, the Company issued a total of 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock to JSP and JSP’s designees. In accordance with its policy related to renewal and extension costs for recognized intangible assets, the Company recorded a $20.1 million expense in cost of sales, which represents the fair value of the shares on August 19, 2013. On August 20, 2018, the Company announced that the JSP Distribution Agreement, which expires on March 23, 2019, will not be renewed or extended.

Note 22. Assets Held for Sale

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company approved a plan to sell the Cody API business, which includes the manufacturing and distribution of active pharmaceutical ingredients for use in finished goods production. As such, all assets and liabilities associated with the Cody API business are recorded in the assets and liabilities held for sale captions in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018. As part of the held for sale classification, the Company recorded the assets of the Cody API business at fair value less costs to sell. The Company performed a fair value analysis which resulted in a $29.9 million impairment of the Cody long-lived assets.

The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the Cody API business as of December 31, 2018:

Company Overview

Lannett Company, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, “Lannett”, “we” or “us”) primarily develop, manufacture, package, market and distribute solid oral and extended release (tablets and capsules), topical, liquids, nasal and oral solution finished dosage forms of drugs, generic forms of both small molecule and biologic medications, that address a wide range of therapeutic areas. Certain of these products are manufactured by others and distributed by the Company. Additionally, the Company is pursuing partnerships, research contracts and internal expansion for the development and production of other dosage forms including: ophthalmic, nasal, patch, foam, buccal, sublingual, suspensions, soft gel, injectable and oral dosages.

On November 25, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Kremers Urban Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“KUPI”), the former subsidiary of global biopharmaceuticals company UCB S.A. KUPI is a specialty pharmaceuticals manufacturer focused on the development of products that are difficult to formulate or utilize specialized delivery technologies. Strategic benefits of the acquisition include expanded manufacturing capacity, a diversified product portfolio and pipeline and complementary research and development expertise.

JSP Distribution Agreement

On March 23, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with JSP (the “JSP Distribution Agreement”) for the exclusive distribution rights in the United States to four different JSP products, in exchange for 4.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock. On August 19, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with JSP to extend the JSP Distribution Agreement to continue as the exclusive distributor in the United States of three JSP products: Butalbital, Aspirin, Caffeine with Codeine Phosphate Capsules USP; Digoxin Tablets USP; and Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets USP. The amendment to the JSP Distribution Agreement extended the term of the initial contract, which was due to expire on March 22, 2014, for five years through March 23, 2019. In connection with the amendment, the Company issued a total of 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock to JSP and JSP’s designees.

Net sales of JSP products totaled $253.1 million and $144.9 million in Fiscal Year 2018 and the first six months of Fiscal Year 2019, respectively. Of that amount, Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets USP net sales totaled $245.9 million and $142.4 million in Fiscal Year 2018 and the first six months of Fiscal Year 2019, respectively. Gross margins were approximately 60% in both periods.

Table of Contents

After the close of business on August 17, 2018, JSP notified the Company that it will not extend or renew the JSP Distribution Agreement when the current term expires on March 23, 2019.

Because products covered by the JSP Distribution Agreement generate a significant portion of our revenues and gross profits, JSP’s decision not to renew or extend its distribution agreement with us will materially adversely affect our future operating results and cash flows beginning in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019. When announced on August 20, 2018, this resulted in a significant decline in the Company’s market capitalization.

As noted above, JSP’s decision not to renew or extend its distribution agreement with us will materially adversely affect our future operating results, liquidity and cash flows, which could impact our ability to comply with the financial and other covenants in our Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenants. As of December 31, 2018, cash and cash equivalents totaled $163.8 million in addition to availability under our undrawn Revolver totaling $125.0 million.

Based on its projections over the next twelve months, the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity and cashflows to meet its operating and debt service requirements for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of the December 31, 2018 consolidated financial statements. The Company also expects to be in compliance with its financial covenants during the same period.

Although management cannot predict with certainty the precise impact its plans will have on offsetting the loss of the JSP Distribution Agreement, management is continuing to finalize plans to offset the impact of the loss on a short- and long-term basis. These plans currently include, among other things, an emphasis on reducing cost of sales, research and development (“R&D”) and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses; continuing to accelerate new product launches; increasing the level of strategic partnerships; and reducing capital expenditures. To that end, the Company has already launched more than 15 new products since January 2018, which are expected to generate annualized net sales of over $80 million, and expects to maintain this pace with approximately 10 additional launches in the first half of calendar year 2019, two of which have already launched in January 2019. The Company has also signed several distribution and in-licensing agreements during this fiscal year that will provide immediate contribution margins in the near future. Additionally, the Company continues to supplement existing in-process cost reduction plans with additional cost savings initiatives, which is expected to generate annualized cost savings of approximately $66.0 million by the end of Fiscal 2020 when compared to the Fiscal 2018 expenses, of which approximately half will be reinvested into other business growth opportunities. Management will also continue its emphasis on accelerating ANDA filings, as evidenced by the five ANDAs filed with the FDA in the first half of Fiscal 2019. Management also plans to attempt, at the appropriate time, to refinance a significant portion of its outstanding long-term debt to reduce principal repayment requirements and eliminate existing financial covenants, which we expect will increase related interest expense, but will positively impact short-term cash flows.

Amneal Distribution and Transition Support Agreement

On November 9, 2018, the Company entered into a Distribution and Transition Support Agreement (the “Amneal Agreement”) with Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Amneal”) and JSP, pursuant to which Amneal will be the Company’s sole customer for Levothyroxine Sodium Tablets USP (the “Product”) from December 1, 2018 through March 23, 2019 and Amneal will re-sell the Product to its customers. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company will receive an upfront payment of $50 million, which will guarantee the Company at least $50 million of gross profit on approximately $80 million of net sales of the Product during the term of the Agreement, subject to certain adjustments. The Company will continue to distribute Butalbital, Aspirin, Caffeine with Codeine Phosphate Capsules USP and Digoxin Tablets USP pursuant to its distribution agreement with JSP through March 23, 2019.

Sale of Cody API Business

The Company is analyzing and exploring various financing and operational courses to improve the Company’s base business, including a focus on nearer term opportunities and an overall strategic shift toward the Company’s core competencies and optimization of its cost structure. In connection therewith, the Company approved a plan in September 2018 to sell the active pharmaceutical ingredient manufacturing and distribution business of its Cody Laboratories subsidiary (the “Cody API business”). As part of its decision, the Company considered (i) the Cody API business’s timeline to profitability, (ii) continuing investment needed to be competitive and (iii) the reduction to the Company’s operating expenses, estimated to be approximately $18 million on an annualized basis, that would result from a sale of the Cody API business. Excluded from the sale will be the manufacturing of the finished dosage form of the Company’s Cocaine Hydrochloride product line.

Table of Contents

As a result of the decision to sell the Cody API business, all of the assets, excluding the Cocaine Hydrochloride product line mentioned above, and all of the liabilities associated with the Cody API business, are classified as assets and liabilities held for sale on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, with such assets and liabilities recorded at fair value less costs to sell. As a result of a fair value analysis of the Cody API business, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $29.9 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2019.

Cody Restructuring Plan

On June 29, 2018, the Company announced a restructuring plan related to the future of Cody Laboratories, Inc. and the Company’s operations (the “Cody Restructuring Plan”). The plan focuses on a more select set of opportunities which will result in streamlined operations, improved efficiencies and a reduced cost structure. The Company currently estimates that it will incur approximately $4.5 million of total costs to implement the Cody Restructuring Plan, comprised primarily of approximately $3.0 million of severance and employee-related costs. These amounts are preliminary estimates based on the information currently available to management. It is possible that additional charges and future cash payments could occur in relation to the restructuring actions.

2016 Restructuring Plan

On February 1, 2016, in connection with the acquisition of KUPI, the Company announced a plan related to the future integration of KUPI and the Company’s operations (the “2016 Restructuring Program”). The plan focuses on the closure of KUPI’s corporate functions and the consolidation of manufacturing, sales, research and development and distribution functions. The Company estimates that it will incur an aggregate of up to approximately $20.0 million in restructuring charges for actions that have been announced or communicated since the 2016 Restructuring Program began. Of this amount, approximately $11.0 million relates to employee separation costs, approximately $1.0 million relates to contract termination costs and approximately $8.0 million relates to facility closures costs and other actions. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company ceased manufacturing functions at its State Road facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Company discontinued distribution from its Townsend Road facility in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as of January 31, 2019. The Company intends to sell its Townsend Road facility by the end of Fiscal 2019.

Results of Operations - Three months ended December 31, 2018 compared with the three months ended December 31, 2017

Net sales increased 5% to $193.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018. The following table identifies the Company’s net product sales by medical indication for the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017:

(In thousands)	Three Months Ended December 31,
Medical Indication	2018		2017
Antibiotic	$	4,187	$	3,552
Anti-Psychosis	14,036		22,799
Cardiovascular	25,680		10,135
Central Nervous System	6,187		6,925
Gallstone	2,489		5,282
Gastrointestinal	10,009		15,055
Glaucoma	512		2,164
Migraine	12,551		15,484
Muscle Relaxant	3,121		3,219
Pain Management	8,968		6,128
Respiratory	1,163		2,230
Thyroid Deficiency	88,477		68,794
Urinary	1,606		2,840
Other	6,827		13,105
Contract manufacturing revenue	7,905		6,593
Net sales	$	193,718	$	184,305

The increase in net sales was driven by increased volumes of $39.8 million, partially offset by decreased average selling price of products of $30.4 million. Volumes were favorably impacted due to increased sales of Levothyroxine as customer demand increased in anticipation of the transition of the Product. Additional sales in the Cardiovascular medical indication related to a distribution agreement entered into with Aralez in November 2017 also contributed to increased volumes. On August 10, 2018, Aralez filed a Chapter 11 petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and continues to operate its business in the normal course. The Company does not believe this will materially affect our distribution agreement with Aralez. Average selling prices were negatively impacted by price protection and stock-shelf adjustments in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 as a result of anticipated price increases and decreases, respectively, on certain products. Average selling prices were also impacted by product mix, changes within distribution channels and, to a lesser extent, competitive pricing pressures. Although the Company has benefited in the past from favorable pricing trends, these trends have reversed.

In January 2017, a provision in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 required drug manufacturers to pay additional rebates to state Medicaid programs if the prices of their generic drugs rise at a rate faster than inflation. The provision negatively impacted the Company’s net sales by $7.1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Central Nervous System. Methylphenidate Hydrochloride Extended Release Tablets (“Methylphenidate ER”)

Per a teleconference in November 2014, the FDA informed KUPI that it was changing the therapeutic equivalence rating of its Methylphenidate ER product from “AB” (therapeutically equivalent) to “BX.” A BX-rated drug is a product for which data is insufficient to determine therapeutic equivalence; it is still approved and can be prescribed, but the FDA does not recommend it as automatically substitutable for the brand-name drug at the pharmacy.

During the November 2014 teleconference, the FDA also asked KUPI to either voluntarily withdraw its product or to conduct new bioequivalence (“BE”) testing in accordance with the recommendations for demonstrating bioequivalence to Concerta proposed in a new draft BE guidance that the FDA issued earlier that November. The Company agreed to conduct new BE studies per the new draft BE guidance. KUPI submitted the data from those studies to the FDA in June 2015 and met with the FDA to discuss the results in July 2015.

On October 18, 2016, the Company received notice from the FDA that it will seek to withdraw approval of the Company’s ANDA for Methylphenidate ER. The FDA’s notice includes an opportunity for the Company to request a hearing on this matter. Following the Company’s request under the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) for documents to support its request for a hearing, the FDA granted an extension to submit all data, information and analyses upon which the request for a hearing relies. The FDA has not yet made a decision as to whether to grant a hearing to the Company.

The Company intends to continue working with the FDA to regain the “AB” rating, and in the meantime, maintain the drug on the U.S. market with a BX rating. However, there can be no assurance as to when or if the Company will regain the “AB” rating or be permitted to remain on the market. If the Company was to receive the “AB” rating, net sales of the product could increase subject to market factors existing at that time. The Company also agreed to potential acquisition-related contingent payments to UCB related to Methylphenidate ER if the FDA reinstates the AB-rating and certain sales thresholds are met. Such potential contingent payments are set to expire after December 31, 2020.

In August 2018, the Company entered into an exclusive perpetual licensing agreement with Andor Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“Andor”) for Methylphenidate ER tablets USP (CII) in 18 mg, 27 mg, 36 mg and 54 mg strengths. Andor’s pending ANDA of Methylphenidate included all bioequivalence metrics recommended by the FDA and is expected to be approved as an AB-rated generic equivalent to the brand Concerta®.

Under the licensing agreement with Andor, Lannett will primarily provide sales, marketing and distribution support of Andor’s Methylphenidate ER product, for which it will receive a percentage of the net profits.

Pain Management. Cocaine Topical Solution (“C-Topical”)

In December 2017, a competitor received approval from the FDA to market and sell a Cocaine Hydrochloride topical product. This approval affects the Company’s right to market and sell its unapproved C-Topical product. According to FDA guidance, the FDA typically allows the marketing of unapproved products for up to one year following the approval of an NDA for the product. Subsequently, the Company would not be permitted to market and sell its unapproved C-Topical product. During the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s net sales of C-Topical were $7.0 million and $9.7 million, respectively.

The competitor’s Cocaine Hydrochloride topical product first appeared in FDA’s Orange Book in January 2018, and the Orange Book listing was updated in February 2018 to include New Chemical Entity (“NCE”) exclusivity. Under the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act, the grant of NCE exclusivity provides that additional applications for approval of the same product under Section 505(b)(2) may not be submitted to the FDA for approval before the expiration of five years from the date of the approval of the first application. Because the Company submitted its application for approval prior to the date of approval of the competitor’s Cocaine Hydrochloride topical application, the Company does not believe the NCE exclusivity will apply to the Company’s application. The FDA continues to review the Company’s application, and in July 2018 issued a Complete Response Letter which required an additional study and other information. The Company is in the process of addressing the Complete Response Letter and cannot say for certain when or if the application will be approved.

The competitor filed a citizen petition with the FDA in February 2019, claiming that the grant of the NCE exclusivity blocks the approval of the Company’s application for five years and requesting that the FDA refuse to accept any further submissions in furtherance of the Company’s Section 505(b)(2) application, treat as withdrawn any submissions made by the Company after December 2017 and withdraw the Company’s Section 505(b)(2) application. The Company intends to file an opposition to the citizen petition.

At this time, the Company cannot predict the ultimate impact that these developments will have on its business and financial performance, including but not limited to any possible price reductions based on the competitor product, for how long the Company will continue to be permitted to market and sell C-Topical, or the possible effect on the Company’s pending NDA application.

Gastrointestinal. Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)3350 (“Glycolax”)

On April 2, 2018, the FDA issued a Federal Register notice (Docket No. FDA-2008-N-0549) indicating that it was affirming a preliminary summary judgment decision that the FDA issued in 2014, denying a hearing, and withdrawing all ANDAs for prescription PEG 3350 products, including the Company’s Glycolax product. The FDA’s decision is based on the FDA finding that there are no meaningful differences between Rx PEG 3350 products and OTC PEG 3350 products and, therefore, that the Rx products are misbranded. The FDA ordered the Company’s ANDA withdrawn effective May 2, 2018, after which the Company would no longer be permitted to market or sell its Glycolax product. The Company disputes the FDA’s finding that there are no meaningful differences and disputes that summary judgment was appropriate in light of the factual issues raised by the ANDA holders. On April 9, 2018, the Company, along with three other PEG 3350 ANDA holders, filed a request for a stay of the FDA order pending appeal of the decision to the District of Columbia Circuit Court of Appeals. On April 16, 2018, the FDA granted a stay of its order withdrawing the Company’s ANDA through November 2, 2018, after which the Company will no longer be permitted to market or sell its Glycolax product. The Company filed an appeal of the FDA withdrawal order to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. In July 2018, the Company filed a brief in support of the appeal. All briefing was completed by September 15, 2018 and an argument hearing was held on October 12, 2018. The Company is unable to say whether the Court will decide the appeal prior to the November 2, 2018 withdrawal date. During the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s net sales of Glycolax were $6.0 million and $8.3 million, respectively, although gross profit percentages for this product were in the single-digits in each of these periods. At this time, the Court has not yet issued a ruling and the Company is unable to determine the outcome of this matter nor can it predict when or if the Company’s product will be removed from the market.

Thalomid®

The Company filed with the FDA an ANDA No. 206601, along with a paragraph IV certification, alleging that the fifteen patents associated with the Thalomid drug product are invalid, unenforceable and/or not infringed. On January 30, 2015, Celgene Corporation and Children’s Medical Center Corporation filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, alleging that the Company’s filing of ANDA No. 206601 constitutes an act of patent infringement and seeking a declaration that the patents at issue are valid and infringed. A settlement agreement was reached and the Court dismissed the lawsuit in October 2017. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company entered into a license agreement that permits Lannett to manufacture and market in the U.S. its generic thalidomide product as of August 1, 2019 or earlier under certain circumstances. In the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company received a major complete response letter that may delay the Company’s ability to market this product.

The Company sells its products to customers in various distribution channels. The table below presents the Company’s net sales to each distribution channel for the three months ended December 31:

(In thousands) Customer Distribution Channel	December 31, 2018		December 31, 2017
Wholesaler/Distributor	$	153,641	$	126,765
Retail Chain	24,627		40,233
Mail-Order Pharmacy	7,545		10,714
Contract manufacturing revenue	7,905		6,593
Net sales	$	193,718	$	184,305

Cost of Sales, including amortization of intangibles. Cost of sales, including amortization of intangibles, for the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 increased 28% to $123.9 million from $96.9 million in the same prior-year period. The increase was primarily attributable to increased volumes of products sold, and to a lesser extent, increased product royalties. Product royalties expense included in cost of sales totaled $10.8 million for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2019 and $7.2 million for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2018. Amortization expense included in cost of sales totaled $8.2 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 compared to $7.9 million for the second quarter of Fiscal 2018.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 decreased 20% to $69.8 million or 36% of net sales. In comparison, gross profit for the second quarter of Fiscal 2018 was $87.5 million or 47% of net sales. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to price protection and stock-shelf adjustments in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 as well as lower average

selling price of certain key products and increased product royalties related to a distribution agreement entered into with Aralez in November 2017.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the second quarter decreased 9% to $9.7 million in Fiscal 2019 from $10.7 million in Fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower incentive compensation-related expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 19% to $23.2 million in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 compared with $28.5 million in Fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower incentive-based compensation and a reduction of selling and marketing expenses related to product salesforce, partially offset by depreciation related to software integration costs.

The Company is focused on controlling operating expenses and has implemented its 2016 Restructuring Plan and Cody Restructuring Plan as noted above, however increases in personnel and other costs to facilitate enhancements in the Company’s infrastructure and expansion may continue to impact operating expenses in future periods.

Restructuring Expenses. Restructuring expenses decreased $822 thousand to $213 thousand for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2019 compared to the prior-year period primarily due to a reversal of employee separation costs related to the Cody Restructuring Program. See Note 4 “Restructuring Charges” for more information.

Other Income (Loss). Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2018 totaled $21.5 million compared to $20.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The weighted average interest rate for the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 and 2018 was 9.6% and 8.3%, respectively. Investment income totaled $556 thousand in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 compared with $2.3 million in the second quarter of Fiscal 2018.

Income Tax. The Company recorded income tax expense in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 of $2.6 million compared to $18.1 million in the second quarter of Fiscal 2018. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was 17.6%, compared to 56.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was lower compared to the three months ended December 31, 2017 primarily due to the application of 2017 Tax Reform in the prior-year period, which resulted in a revaluation of the Company’s net long term deferred tax assets. In addition, the federal statutory tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was 21% compared to a blended federal statutory tax rate of 28% in the prior-year period.

Net Income. For the three months ended December 31, 2018, the Company reported net income of $12.4 million, or $0.32 per diluted share. Comparatively, net income in the corresponding prior-year period was $14.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share.

The increase in net sales was driven by increased volumes of $52.3 million, partially offset by decreased average selling price of products of $42.8 million. Volumes were favorably impacted due to increased sales of Levothyroxine as customer demand increased in anticipation of the transition of the Product. Additional sales in the Cardiovascular medical indication related to a distribution agreement entered into with Aralez in November 2017 also contributed to increased volumes. On August 10, 2018, Aralez filed a Chapter 11 petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and continues to operate its business in the normal course.

In January 2017, a provision in the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 required drug manufacturers to pay additional rebates to state Medicaid programs if the prices of their generic drugs rise at a rate faster than inflation. The provision negatively impacted the Company’s net sales by $15.0 million and $12.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which contributed to the overall decreased average selling price.

Contract manufacturing revenue	12,566		10,185
Net sales	$	348,772	$	339,266

Net sales to wholesalers/distributors increased significantly primarily due to additional sales of Levothyroxine related to the Amneal Agreement. Net sales to retail chains decreased significantly as a result of additional sales in the six months ended December 31, 2017 to a customer that was unable to obtain supply from a competitor due to a temporary disruption in the competitor’s supply chain. The decrease in sales to retail chains was partially offset by additional sales of a product in the Cardiovascular medical indication related to a distribution agreement entered into with Aralez in November 2017.

Cost of Sales, including amortization of intangibles. Cost of sales, including amortization of intangibles for the first six months of Fiscal 2019 increased 19% to $219.8 million from $184.1 million in the same prior-year period. The increase was primarily attributable to increased volumes of products sold, and to a lesser extent, increased product royalties. Product royalties expense included in cost of sales totaled $16.8 million for the first six months of Fiscal Year 2019 and $13.9 million for the first six months of Fiscal Year 2018. Amortization expense included in cost of sales totaled $16.4 million for the first six months of Fiscal Year 2019 and $15.7 million for the first six months of Fiscal Year 2018.

Table of Contents

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the first six months of Fiscal 2019 decreased 17% to $129.0 million or 37% of net sales. In comparison, gross profit for the first six months of Fiscal 2018 was $155.1 million or 46% of net sales. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to price protection and stock-shelf adjustments in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019 as well as lower average selling price of certain key products and increased product royalties related to a distribution agreement entered into with Aralez in November 2017.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses for the first six months increased 8% to $19.5 million in Fiscal 2019 from $18.1 million in Fiscal 2018. The increase was primarily due to higher product development expenses related to various pipeline projects, partially offset by lower incentive compensation-related expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 8% to $43.8 million in the first six months of Fiscal 2019 compared with $47.5 million in Fiscal 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower incentive compensation-related expenses and a reduction of selling and marketing expenses related to product salesforce, partially offset by additional regulatory and quality control costs as well as depreciation related to software integration costs.

Restructuring Expenses. Restructuring expenses decreased 21% to $1.2 million compared to the prior-year period primarily due to a reversal of employee separation costs related to the Cody Restructuring Program in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019. See Note 4 “Restructuring Charges” for more information.

Asset Impairment Charges. In the first quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company approved a plan to sell the Cody API business. As such, all assets and liabilities associated with the Cody API business are recorded in the assets and liabilities held for sale captions in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018. As part of the held for sale classification, the Company recorded the assets of the Cody API business at fair value less costs to sell. The Company performed a fair value analysis which resulted in a $29.9 million impairment of the Cody long-lived assets. See Note 22 “Assets Held for Sale” for more information.

Other Income (Loss). Interest expense in the first six months of Fiscal 2019 totaled $42.9 million compared to $41.6 million in Fiscal 2018. The weighted average interest rate for the first six months of Fiscal 2019 and 2018 was 9.5% and 8.3%, respectively. Investment income in the first six months of Fiscal 2019 totaled $935 thousand compared with investment income of $3.5 million in Fiscal 2018.

Income Tax. The Company recorded an income tax benefit in the first six months of Fiscal 2019 of $73.0 million compared to income tax expense of $25.6 million in the first six months of Fiscal 2018. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was 21.0% compared to 48.4% for the six months ended December 31, 2017. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was lower compared to the same prior-year period primarily due to the application of 2017 Tax Reform in the prior-year period, which resulted in a revaluation of the Company’s net long term deferred tax assets. In addition, the federal statutory tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was 21% compared to a blended federal statutory tax rate of 28% in the prior-year period.

Net Income (Loss). For the six months ended December 31, 2018, the Company reported net loss of $275.2 million, or $7.30 per diluted share. Comparatively, net income in the corresponding prior-year period was $27.3 million, or $0.72 per diluted share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow

Until November 25, 2015, the date of the KUPI acquisition, the Company had historically financed its operations with cash flow generated from operations supplemented with borrowings from various government agencies and financial institutions. At December 31, 2018, working capital was $350.6 million as compared to $326.0 million at June 30, 2018, an increase of $24.6 million. Current product portfolio sales as well as sales related to future product approvals are anticipated to continue to generate positive cash flow from operations.

Net cash provided by operating activities of $94.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018 reflected net loss of $275.2 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $334.3 million, as well as cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $34.9 million. In comparison, net cash provided by operating activities of $76.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017 reflected net income of $27.3 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $61.7 million, as well as cash used by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $12.9 million.

Significant changes in operating assets and liabilities from June 30, 2018 to December 31, 2018 were comprised of:

· An increase in accounts receivable of $25.9 million primarily as a result of the timing of receipts as well as increased sales of Levothyroxine as customer demand increased in anticipation of the transition of the Product. The Company’s days sales outstanding (“DSO”) at December 31, 2018, based on gross sales for the six months ended December 31, 2018 and gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2018 was 81 days. The level of DSO at December 31, 2018 was comparable to the Company’s expectations that DSO will be in the 70 to 85 day range based on customer payment terms.

· An increase in deferred revenues totaling $24.0 million due to upfront payment received as part of the Amneal Agreement, partially offset by product sold under the agreement in the second quarter of Fiscal 2019.

· A decrease in prepaid income taxes totaling $17.5 million primarily due to receipt of approximately $15.2 million in tax refunds from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”).

· An increase in accrued payroll and payroll-related costs of $8.5 million primarily due to higher accrued incentive “compensation-related costs” and, to a lesser extent, the “timing of payroll payments”

· An increase in settlement liability totaling $8.0 million due to the settlement of the Texas Medicaid Investigation. See Note 12 “Legal, Regulatory Matters and Contingencies” for more information.

Significant changes in operating assets and liabilities from June 30, 2017 to December 31, 2017 were comprised of:

· An increase in accounts receivable of $52.7 million mainly due to increased sales as well as the timing of collections during the quarter ended December 31, 2017 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The Company’s days sales outstanding (“DSO”) at December 31, 2017, based on gross sales for the six months ended December 31, 2017 and gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2017 was 75 days. The level of DSO at December 31, 2017 was comparable to the Company’s expectations that DSO will be in the 70 to 80 day range based on customer payment terms.

· An increase in accounts payable totaling $28.9 million primarily due to the timing of payments to a few major suppliers.

· An increase in inventories totaling $13.0 million primarily due to the timing of customer order fulfillment.

· An increase in accrued payroll and payroll-related costs of $11.2 million primarily due to higher incentive compensation-related costs as well as approximately $2.6 million related to severance benefits for the former chief executive officer.

· A decrease in prepaid income taxes totaling $15.0 million primarily due to income tax refunds received from the IRS.

Net cash provided by investing activities of $5.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018 is mainly the result of proceeds from the sale of property, plant and equipment of $14.1 million and proceeds from the sale of an outstanding VIE loan to a third party of $5.6 million, partially offset by purchases of property, plant and equipment of $12.0 million and purchases of an intangible asset of $2.0 million. Net cash used in investing activities of $26.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017 is mainly the result of purchases of investment securities of $42.8 million and purchases of property, plant and equipment of $26.4 million and the purchase of an intangible asset of $2.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of investment securities of $44.9 million.

Net cash used in financing activities of $34.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2018 was primarily due to debt repayments of $33.4 million, payments of debt issuance costs totaling $1.1 million and purchases of treasury stock totaling $475 thousand, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of stock pursuant to stock compensation plans of $521 thousand. Net cash used in financing activities of $27.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to debt repayments of $27.3

million, purchases of treasury stock totaling $1.0 million, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of stock pursuant to stock compensation plans of $806 thousand.

Credit Facility and Other Indebtedness

The Company has previously entered into and may enter into future agreements with various government agencies and financial institutions to provide additional cash to help finance the Company’s various capital investments and potential strategic opportunities. These borrowing arrangements as of December 31, 2018 are as follows:

Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility

On November 25, 2015, in connection with its acquisition of KUPI, Lannett entered into a credit and guaranty agreement (the “Credit and Guaranty Agreement”) among certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent and other lenders providing for a senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The Senior Secured Credit Facility consisted of Term Loan A in an aggregate principal amount of $275.0 million, Term Loan B in an aggregate principal amount of $635.0 million and a revolving credit facility providing for revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $125.0 million.

On June 17, 2016, Lannett amended the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the Credit and Guaranty Agreement to raise an incremental term loan in the principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Incremental Term Loan”) and amended certain sections of the agreement (the “Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The terms of this Incremental Term Loan are substantially the same as those applicable to the Term Loan B. The Company used the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan and cash on hand to repurchase the outstanding $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of Lannett’s 12.0% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Senior Notes”) issued in connection with the KUPI acquisition.

Refer to the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 for further details on the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility.

Other Liquidity Matters

Refer to the “JSP Distribution Agreement” section above for the impact of the nonrenewal of the JSP agreement on our future liquidity.

Future Acquisitions

We are continuously evaluating the potential for product and company acquisitions as a part of our future growth strategy. In conjunction with a potential acquisition, the Company may utilize current resources or seek additional sources of capital to finance any such acquisition, which could have an impact on future liquidity.

We may also from time to time depending on market conditions and prices, contractual restrictions, our financial liquidity and other factors, seek to prepay outstanding debt or repurchase our outstanding debt through open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases, or otherwise. The amounts involved in any such transactions, individually or in the aggregate, may be material and may be funded from available cash or from additional borrowings.

Research and Development Arrangements

In the normal course of business, the Company has entered into certain research and development and other arrangements. As part of these arrangements, the Company has agreed to certain contingent payments which generally become due and payable only upon the achievement of certain developmental, regulatory, commercial and/or other milestones. In addition, under certain arrangements, we may be required to make royalty payments based on a percentage of future sales, or other metric, for products currently in development in the event that the Company begins to market and sell the product. Due to the inherent uncertainty related to these developmental, regulatory, commercial and/or other milestones, it is unclear if the Company will ever be required to make such payments.

Table of Contents

In the second quarter of Fiscal 2019, the Company entered into an agreement in principle with North South Brother Pharmacy Investment Co., Ltd. and HEC Group PTY, Ltd. (collectively, “HEC”) to develop an insulin glargine product that would be biosimilar to Lantus Solostar pursuant to a License and Collaboration Agreement to be executed by the parties. This agreement modifies and supersedes a May 3, 2016 Collaboration and Supply Agreement with HEC. Under the terms of the deal, among other things, the Company shall fund up to $32 million of the development costs and split 50/50 any development costs in excess thereof. Lannett shall receive an exclusive license to distribute and market the product in the United States upon FDA approval under the 50/50 profit split for the first ten years following commercialization, followed by a 60/40 split in favor of HEC for the following five years.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission requires the use of estimates and assumptions. A listing of the Company’s significant accounting policies is detailed in Note 3 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” A subsection of these accounting policies have been identified by management as “Critical Accounting Policies.” Critical accounting policies are those which require management to make estimates using assumptions that were uncertain at the time the estimates were made and for which the use of different assumptions, which reasonably could have been used, could have a material impact on the financial condition or results of operations.

Management has identified the following as “Critical Accounting Policies”: Revenue Recognition, Inventories, Income Taxes, Valuation of Long-Lived Assets, including Goodwill and Intangible Assets, In-Process Research and Development and Share-based Compensation.

Revenue Recognition

On July 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which superseded ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when title and risk of loss of promised goods or services have transferred to the customer at an amount that reflects the consideration the Company is expected to be entitled. Our revenue consists almost entirely of sales of our pharmaceutical products to customers, whereby we ship product to a customer pursuant to a purchase order. Revenue contracts such as these do not generally give rise to contract assets or contract liabilities because: (i) the underlying contracts generally have only a single performance obligation and (ii) we do not generally receive consideration until the performance obligation is fully satisfied. The new revenue standard also impacts the timing of the Company’s revenue recognition by requiring recognition of certain contract manufacturing arrangements to change from “upon shipment or delivery” to “over time”. However, the recognition of these arrangements over time does not currently have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position. The Company adopted ASC 606 using the modified retrospective method. Refer to the “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” section of this footnote for further discussion of the impact of the adoption.

Chargebacks

Table of Contents

AmerisourceBergen and McKesson increase (decrease), the reserve for chargebacks will also generally increase (decrease). However, the size of the increase (decrease) depends on product mix and the amount of sales made to indirect customers with which the Company has specific chargeback agreements. The Company continually monitors the reserve for chargebacks and makes adjustments when management believes that expected chargebacks may differ from the actual chargeback reserve.

Rebates

Rebates are offered to the Company’s key chain drug store, distributor and wholesaler customers to promote customer loyalty and increase product sales. These rebate programs provide customers with credits upon attainment of pre-established volumes or attainment of net sales milestones for a specified period. Other promotional programs are incentive programs offered to the customers. Additionally, as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”) enacted in the U.S. in March 2010, the Company participates in a new cost-sharing program for certain Medicare Part D beneficiaries designed primarily for the sale of brand drugs and certain generic drugs if their FDA approval was granted under a NDA or 505(b) NDA versus an ANDA. Because our drugs used for the treatment of thyroid deficiency and our Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution product were both approved by the FDA as 505(b)(2) NDAs, they are considered “brand” drugs for purposes of the PPACA. Drugs purchased within the Medicare Part D coverage gap (commonly referred to as the “donut hole”) result in additional rebates. The Company estimates the reserve for rebates and other promotional credit programs based on the specific terms in each agreement when revenue is recognized. The reserve for rebates increases (decreases) as sales to certain wholesale and retail customers increase (decrease). However, since these rebate programs are not identical for all customers, the size of the reserve will depend on the mix of sales to customers that are eligible to receive rebates.

Returns

Other Adjustments

Refer to the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 for a description of our remaining Critical Accounting Policies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

On November 25, 2015, in connection with the acquisition of KUPI, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Credit Facility, which was subsequently amended in June 2016 and December 2018. Based on the variable-rate debt outstanding at December 31, 2018, each 1/8% increase in interest rates would yield $1.1 million of incremental annual interest expense.

The Company has historically invested in equity securities, U.S. government agency securities and corporate bonds, which are exposed to market and interest rate fluctuations. The market value, interest and dividends earned on these investments may vary based on fluctuations in interest rate and market conditions.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our 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”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based upon the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Lannett’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Change in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in Lannett’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
