NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(all tabular amounts in millions, except number of shares, which are reflected in thousands, and per share data)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Hologic, Inc. (“Hologic” or the “Company”) presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended September 26, 2015 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2015. In the opinion of management, the financial statements and notes contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate. Operating results for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year ending September 24, 2016.
Subsequent Events Consideration
The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but prior to the issuance of the financial statements to provide additional evidence for certain estimates or to identify matters that may require additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated as required. There was one unrecognized subsequent event related to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016 related to the Company's execution of a $200.0 million accounts receivable securitization program with several of its wholly owned subsidiaries and certain financial institutions on April 25, 2016 (see Note 4). There were no material recognized subsequent events recorded in the unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016.

(2) Fair Value Measurements
Assets/Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company has investments in publicly-traded companies, which are valued using quoted market prices, representing Level 1 assets, and investments in derivative instruments comprised of interest rate caps and forward foreign currency contracts, which are valued using analyses obtained from independent third party valuation specialists based on market observable inputs, representing Level 2 assets. The fair values of the Company's interest rate caps and forward foreign currency contracts represent the estimated amounts the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts. Refer to Note 5 for further discussion and information on the interest rate caps and forward foreign currency contracts.
The Company has a payment obligation to the participants under its Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan (“DCP”). This liability is recorded at fair value based on the underlying value of certain hypothetical investments under the DCP as designated by each participant for their benefit. Since the value of the DCP obligation is based on market prices, the liability is classified within Level 1.
Assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following at March 26, 2016:

Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company remeasures the fair value of certain assets and liabilities upon the occurrence of certain events. Such assets are comprised of cost-method equity investments and long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill.
The Company holds certain cost-method equity investments in non-publicly traded securities aggregating $3.5 million and $4.2 million at March 26, 2016 and September 26, 2015, respectively, which are included in other long-term assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. These investments are generally carried at cost, less any write-downs for other-than-temporary impairment charges. To determine the fair value of these investments, the Company uses all available financial information related to the entities, including information based on recent or pending third-party equity investments in these entities. In certain instances, a cost method investment’s fair value is not estimated as there are no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment and to make such an estimate would be impractical.
Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments mainly consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, cost-method equity investments, interest rate caps, forward foreign currency contracts, insurance contracts, DCP liability, accounts payable and debt obligations. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company’s marketable securities, interest rate caps, and forward foreign currency contracts are recorded at fair value. The carrying amount of the insurance contracts are recorded at the cash surrender value, as required by U.S. GAAP, which approximates fair value, and the related DCP liability is recorded at fair value. The Company believes the carrying amounts of its cost-method equity investments approximate fair value.

Table of Contents

Amounts outstanding under the Company’s Credit Agreement of $1.62 billion aggregate principal as of March 26, 2016 are subject to variable rates of interest based on current market rates, and as such, the Company believes the carrying amount of these obligations approximates fair value. The Company’s 2022 Senior Notes had a fair value of approximately $1.04 billion as of March 26, 2016 based on their trading price, representing a Level 1 measurement. The fair value of the Company’s Convertible Notes is based on the trading prices of the respective notes and represents a Level 1 measurement. Refer to Note 4 for the carrying amounts of the various components of the Company’s debt.
The estimated fair values of the Company’s Convertible Notes at March 26, 2016 were as follows:

(3) Restructuring and Divestiture Charges

Fiscal 2016 Actions

During the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company decided to close its Bedford, Massachusetts facility where it manufactures its Skeletal Health products and provides certain support manufacturing services for its Breast Health segment. The manufacturing of the Skeletal Health products will be outsourced to a third-party, and the Breast Health manufacturing services will be moved to the Company's Danbury, Connecticut and Marlborough, Massachusetts facilities. In addition, research and development, sales and services support and administrative functions will be moved to both Marlborough and Danbury. The transition is expected to be completed by the end of calendar 2016. In connection with this plan, certain employees, primarily in manufacturing, will be terminated. The employees were notified of termination and related benefits in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, and the Company is recording these charges pursuant to ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations (ASC 420). Employees are required to remain employed during this transition period and charges are being recorded ratably over the required service period. The Company recorded $0.5 million and $0.9 million in severance and benefits charges in the three and six months ended March 26, 2016, respectively, related to this plan. The Company estimates the total severance and benefits charges will be approximately $1.7 million.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company began implementing a second plan to consolidate and improve operational efficiency of its international sales and marketing and field services operations and certain support functions. As a result, the Company identified and terminated certain employees in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2016. Severance and benefits under this action were recorded pursuant to ASC 712, Compensation-Nonretirement Postemployment Benefits (ASC 712), and ASC 420 depending on the circumstances. The Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $3.3 million and $5.1 million in the three and six months ended March 26, 2016, respectively, related to this plan. The Company is continuing to assess its organizational structure and finalize its plans and additional severance charges are expected in fiscal 2016.
Fiscal 2015 Actions
During each quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company continued to make executive management changes resulting in the termination of certain executives and employees on a worldwide basis. In addition, the Company continued to consolidate and close certain international offices to improve operational efficiency and reduce costs. Severance and benefit charges under these actions were recorded pursuant to ASC 420 and ASC 712 depending on the circumstances, and the Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $10.0 million in fiscal 2015, including $4.1 million of stock-based compensation. During the three and six months ended March 28, 2015, the Company recorded $0.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively, for severance and benefits charges. No additional charges are expected under these actions.
In connection with its review of operations, the Company decided to shut-down its manufacturing operation in China, which manufactured mammography systems for the Chinese market. As a result, the Company terminated manufacturing and research and development personnel located in China, and the severance charge was insignificant.
Fiscal 2014 Actions
In each quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company made executive management changes, including appointing Stephen P. MacMillan as President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, and implemented a number of cost reduction initiatives resulting in the termination of certain executives and employees on a worldwide basis. In addition, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company decided to consolidate and close certain international offices. Severance and benefit charges under these actions were recorded pursuant to ASC 420 and ASC 712 depending on the circumstances. For those employees who continued to be employed beyond the minimum retention period, charges were recorded ratably over the estimated period of the affected employees.
During fiscal 2015, in connection with these actions, the Company recorded $6.0 million for severance and benefits costs and $2.0 million for facility closure costs related to this action. The facility closure costs primarily related to lease obligation charges for three office locations where the Company had met the cease-use date criteria. During the three and six months ended March 28, 2015, the Company recorded severance and benefit charges of $1.4 million and $5.9 million, respectively. This action was completed in fiscal 2015.

Divestitures
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company completed the sale of its MRI breast coils product line and recorded a loss on disposal of $5.3 million. The Company also provided certain transition services through April 2015, including the manufacturing and sale of inventory to the buyer. Since all operations had ceased during the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company concluded that this subsidiary had been substantially liquidated and recorded a $9.6 million charge in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 to write off the cumulative translation adjustment related to the subsidiary.

Credit Agreement
Borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016 had weighted-average interest rates of 2.18% and 2.06%, respectively. The interest rate on the outstanding Term Loan borrowing at March 26, 2016 was 2.18%. Borrowings outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement for the three and six months ended March 28, 2015 had weighted-average interest rates of 2.62% and 2.70%, respectively. Interest expense under the Credit Agreement aggregated $10.8 million and $20.7 million for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016, respectively, which includes non-cash interest expense of $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, related to the amortization of the deferred issuance costs and accretion of the debt discount. Interest expense under the Prior Credit Agreement aggregated $14.4 million and $31.9 million for the three and six months ended March 28, 2015, respectively, which included $2.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively, of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the deferred issuance costs and accretion of the debt discount.  
The Credit Agreement contains two financial covenants, a total net leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio, both of which are measured as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. These terms, and the calculation thereof, are defined in further detail in the Credit Agreement. As of March 26, 2016, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
On December 24, 2014, the Company voluntarily pre-paid $300.0 million of its Term Loan B facility under its Prior Credit Agreement. Pursuant to ASC 470, Debt (ASC 470), the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss of $6.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 to write-off the pro-rata amount of unamortized debt discount and deferred issuance costs related to this voluntary prepayment.
2022 Senior Notes
The Company's 5.250% Senior Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Senior Notes”) mature on July 15, 2022 and bear interest at the rate of 5.250% per year, payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2016. The Company recorded interest expense of $13.9 million and $27.9 million in the three and six month periods ended March 26, 2016, respectively, which includes non-cash interest expense of $1.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to the amortization of the deferred issuance costs and accretion of the debt discount. The Company used the net proceeds from the 2022 Senior Notes, plus available cash to discharge and redeem all of its outstanding 6.25% Senior Notes due 2020 ("Senior Notes"). The Company recorded interest expense related to its Senior Notes of $16.0 million and $32.0 million in the three and

11
Table of Contents

six month periods ended March 28, 2015, respectively, which included non-cash interest expense of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, related to the amortization of deferred issuance costs.
Convertible Notes
During the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the closing price of the Company's common stock exceeded 130% of the applicable conversion price of its 2010 Notes on at least 20 of the last 30 consecutive trading days of the quarter. As a result, holders of 2010 Notes are able to convert their notes during the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Therefore, the Company classified the $58.0 million carrying value of its 2010 Notes (which have a principal value of $59.9 million) as a current debt obligation. In the event the closing price conditions are met in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 or a future fiscal quarter, the 2010 Notes will be convertible at a holder's option during the immediately following fiscal quarter. As of March 26, 2016, the if-converted value of the 2010 Notes exceeded the aggregate principal amount by approximately $30.1 million. It is the Company's current intent and policy to settle any conversion of the Convertible Notes as if the Company had elected to make either a net share settlement or all cash election, such that upon conversion, the Company intends to pay the holders in cash for the principal amount of the 2010 Notes and, if applicable, shares of its common stock or cash to satisfy the premium based on a calculated daily conversion value.
On various dates during the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company entered into privately negotiated repurchase transactions and extinguished $90.0 million and $136.6 million principal amount of the 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes, respectively, for total payments of $140.1 million and $171.3 million, respectively. These amounts include the conversion premium resulting from the Company's stock price on the date of the transactions being in excess of the conversion price of $23.03 and $31.175 for the 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes, respectively.
The Company accounted for the 2010 Notes and 2012 Notes extinguishment under the derecognition provisions of subtopic ASC 470-20-40, which requires the allocation of the fair value of the consideration transferred and transaction costs incurred to the extinguishment of the liability component and the reacquisition of the equity component. In connection with these transactions, the Company recorded a debt extinguishment loss on the 2010 Notes of $3.8 million and a debt extinguishment loss on the 2012 Notes of $0.7 million, for a total debt extinguishment loss of $4.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The 2010 Notes debt extinguishment loss was comprised of the loss on the debt itself of $3.3 million, the write-off of the pro-rata amount of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million allocated to the notes retired, and allocated third party costs of $0.2 million. The 2012 Notes debt extinguishment loss was comprised of the write-off of the pro-rata amount of debt issuance costs of $0.5 million allocated to the notes retired, and allocated third party costs of $0.2 million. The loss on the debt itself was calculated as the difference between the fair value of the liability component of the 2010 Notes amount retired immediately before the respective exchanges and its related carrying value immediately before the repurchases. The fair value of the liability component was calculated using a discounted cash flow technique, and the Company used effective interest rates of 2.71% for the 2010 Notes and 3.87% and 3.41% for the 2012 Notes, which had two valuation dates, representing the estimated rate for non-convertible debt (with similar features as the 2010 and 2012 Notes excluding the conversion feature) issued by a company with a credit rating similar to the Company. In addition, under this accounting standard, a portion of the fair value of the consideration transferred is allocated to the reacquisition of the equity component, which is the difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the liability component immediately before the extinguishment. As a result, on a gross basis, $49.9 million related to the 2010 Notes and $38.9 million related to the 2012 Notes were allocated to the reacquisition of the equity component of the original instrument, which was recorded net of deferred taxes of $10.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively, within additional paid-in-capital.
Interest expense under the Convertible Notes was as follows:

Accounts Receivable Securitization Program
On April 25, 2016, the Company entered into a $200.0 million accounts receivable securitization program (the "Securitization Program") with several of its wholly owned subsidiaries and certain financial institutions. Under the terms of the Securitization Program, the Company and certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries will sell their respective customer receivables to a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity, which is wholly-owned by the Company. The Company will also contribute a portion of its customer receivables to the special purpose entity. The Company retains servicing responsibility. The special purpose entity, as borrower, and the Company, as servicer, have entered into a Credit and Security Agreement with several lenders pursuant to which the special purpose entity may borrow up to $200.0 million from the lenders, with the loans secured by the receivables. In addition, the Company may request from the lenders an increase in the borrowing limit of up to $50.0 million during the term of the agreement, although such additional borrowing limit is uncommitted. Borrowings outstanding under the Securitization Program will bear interest at LIBOR plus the applicable margin of 0.7% and will be included as a component of current liabilities in the Company's consolidated balance sheet, while the accounts receivable securing these obligations will be included as a component of net receivables in the Company's consolidated balance sheet. The Company and the special purpose entity have been formed and are operated and maintained as separate legal entities. The assets and liabilities of the special purpose entity, which are separate from those of the Company, are not available to pay the debts of the Company and do not constitute obligations of the Company.

(5) Derivatives
Interest Rate Cap - Cash Flow Hedge
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages its exposure to some of its interest rate risk by the use of interest rate caps, which are derivative financial instruments. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes. For a derivative that is designated as a cash flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") to the extent the derivative is effective at offsetting the changes in the cash flows being hedged until the hedged item affects earnings. To the extent there is any hedge ineffectiveness, changes in fair value relating to the ineffective portion are immediately recognized in earnings in Other income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
During fiscal 2015, the Company entered into separate interest rate cap agreements with multiple counter-parties to help mitigate the interest rate volatility associated with the variable rate interest on its credit facilities under the Prior Credit Agreement, which was replaced by the new Credit Agreement. Interest rate cap agreements provide the right to receive cash if the reference interest rate rises above a contractual rate. The aggregate premium paid by the Company for the interest rate cap agreements was $13.2 million, which was the initial fair value of the instruments recorded in the Company's financial statements.
The critical terms of the interest rate caps were designed to mirror the terms of the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings under the Prior Credit Agreement. The terms in the new Credit Agreement are consistent with the Prior Credit Agreement, and therefore the interest rate caps continue to be highly effective at offsetting the cash flows being hedged. The Company designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges of the variability of the LIBOR-based interest payments on $1.0 billion of principal for a three-year period, which ends on December 29, 2017.
As of March 26, 2016, the Company determined that the existence of hedge ineffectiveness, if any, was immaterial and all changes in the fair value of the interest rate caps were recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of AOCI.
During the three and six months ended March 26, 2016, $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, was reclassified from AOCI to the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income related to the interest rate cap agreements. The Company expects to similarly reclassify approximately $6.1 million from AOCI to the Consolidated Statements of Income in the next twelve months.
The aggregate fair value of these interest rate caps was $3.7 million and $6.9 million at March 26, 2016 and September 26, 2015, respectively and is included in both Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Refer to Note 2 “Fair Value Measurements” above for related fair value disclosures.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
The Company enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate certain operational exposures from the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such exposures result from the portion of the Company's operations that are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Euro, the UK Pound, and the Australian dollar. These foreign currency exchange contracts are entered into to support transactions made in the ordinary course of business and are not speculative in nature. The contracts are for periods of one year or less. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the

13
Table of Contents

Company began to execute forward foreign currency contracts in order to mitigate its exposure to fluctuations in various currencies against its reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. The Company did not elect hedge accounting for these forward foreign currency contracts; however, the Company may seek to apply hedge accounting in future scenarios. The change in the fair value of these contracts is recognized directly in earnings as a component of other income (expense), net. During the three and six months ended March 26, 2016, the Company recorded a net unrealized loss of $0.7 million and an unrealized gain of $0.3 million, respectively, on the mark-to-market for its outstanding forward foreign currency contracts within other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income and a realized gain of $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively from settling forward foreign currency contracts.
As of March 26, 2016, the Company had outstanding forward foreign currency contracts that were not designated for hedge accounting and were used to hedge fluctuations in the U.S. dollar of forecasted transactions denominated in the Euro, UK Pound and the Australian dollar with a notional amount of $65.5 million.

Litigation and Related Matters

On June 9, 2010, Smith & Nephew, Inc. ("Smith & Nephew") filed suit against Interlace Medical, Inc. ("Interlace"), which the Company acquired on January 6, 2011, in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The complaint alleged that the Interlace MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal device infringed U.S. patent 7,226,459. On November 22, 2011, Smith & Nephew filed suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The complaint alleged that use of the MyoSure hysteroscopic tissue removal system infringed U.S. patent 8,061,359. Both complaints sought permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. On September 4, 2012, following a two week trial, the jury returned a verdict of infringement of both the ‘459 and ‘359 patents and assessed damages of $4.0 million. A bench trial regarding the Company’s assertion of inequitable conduct on the part of Smith & Nephew with regard to the ‘359 patent was held on December 9, 2012 and oral arguments on the issue of inequitable conduct were presented on February 27, 2013. On June 27, 2013, the Court denied the Company’s motions related to inequitable conduct and allowed Smith & Nephew’s request for injunction, but ordered that enforcement of the injunction be stayed until final resolution, including appeal, of the current re-examinations of both patents at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). The Court also rejected the jury’s damage award and ordered the parties to identify a mechanism for resolving the damages issue. The Company intends to file post-trial motions seeking to reverse the jury’s verdict. The USPTO has issued final decisions that the claims of the ‘459 and the '359 patents asserted as part of the litigation are not patentable. Smith & Nephew has appealed these decisions to the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board. On January 20, 2016 the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board affirmed the USPTO decision holding the claims at issue in the ‘459 patent as invalid. At this time, based on available information regarding this litigation, the Company is unable to reasonably assess the ultimate outcome of this case or determine an estimate, or a range of estimates, of potential losses.
In January 2012, Enzo Life Sciences, Inc. ("Enzo") filed suit against the Company's subsidiary, Gen-Probe Incorporated ("Gen-Probe"), in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The Gen-Probe complaint alleged that certain of Gen-Probe’s diagnostics products, including products that incorporate Gen-Probe’s patented hybridization protection assay technology, such as the Aptima Combo 2 and Aptima HPV assays, infringe Enzo’s U.S. patent 6,992,180. On March 6, 2012, Enzo filed suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint alleged that certain of the Company’s molecular diagnostics products, including without limitation products based on its proprietary Invader chemistry, such as Cervista HPV HR and Cervista HPV 16/18, infringe Enzo’s U.S. patent 6,992,180. The complaint seeks permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. On September 30, 2013, Enzo amended its list of accused products to include Prodesse, MilliPROBE, PACE and Procleix assays. The complaint seeks permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. Enzo has asserted the ‘180 patent claims against six other companies. The court issued a Markman order on July 7, 2015 construing the claims, and it is expected that summary judgment motions will be heard in the fall of 2016. At this time, based on available information regarding this litigation, the Company is unable to reasonably assess the ultimate outcome of this case or determine an estimate, or a range of estimates, of potential losses.
On March 27, 2015, Enzo filed an additional suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint alleged that certain additional Company molecular diagnostic products, including, inter alia, the Procleix Parvo/HAV assays and coagulation products, including the Invader Factor II test and the Invader Factor V test, also infringe U.S. Patent 6,992,180. The complaint further alleged that certain of the Company’s molecular diagnostic products, including the Company’s Progensa PCA3 products, all Aptima products and all Procleix products infringe Enzo’s U. S. Patent 7,064,197. On June 11, 2015, this matter was stayed pending the resolution of summary judgment motions in the 2012 case referenced above. On March 30, 2016 Hologic filed a request for inter-parties review of the ‘179 patent at the USPTO. At this time, based on available information regarding this litigation, the Company is unable to reasonably assess the ultimate outcome of this case or determine an estimate, or a range of estimates, of potential losses.
The Company is a party to various other legal proceedings and claims arising out of the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that except for those matters described above there are no other proceedings or claims pending against it the ultimate resolution of which would have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. In all cases, at each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether or not a potential loss amount or a potential range of loss is probable and reasonably estimable under ASC 450, Contingencies. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company has outstanding Convertible Notes, and the principal balance and any conversion premium may be satisfied, at the Company’s option, by issuing shares of common stock, cash or a combination of shares and cash. The Company's current policy is that it will settle the principal balance of the Convertible Notes in cash. As such, the Company applies the treasury stock method to these securities and the dilution related to the conversion premium of the 2010, 2012 and 2013 Notes is included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding to the extent each issuance is dilutive based on the average stock price during each reporting period being greater than the conversion price of the respective Notes.

The Company granted 1.0 million and 1.4 million restricted stock units (RSUs) during the six months ended March 26, 2016 and March 28, 2015, respectively, with weighted-average grant date fair values of $39.63 and $26.35 per unit, respectively. As of March 26, 2016, there were 3.3 million unvested RSUs outstanding with a weighted-average grant date fair value of $29.58 per unit. In addition, the Company granted 0.2 million and 0.3 million performance stock units (PSUs) during the six months ended March 26, 2016 and March 28, 2015, respectively, to members of its senior management team, which have a weighted-average grant date fair value of $39.72 and $26.58 per unit, respectively. Each recipient of PSUs is eligible to receive between zero and 200% of the target number of shares of the Company’s common stock at the end of three years provided the Company’s defined Return on Invested Capital metrics are achieved. The Company is recognizing compensation expense ratably over the required service period based on its estimate of the number of shares that will vest. If there is a change in the estimate of the number of shares that are probable of vesting, the Company will cumulatively adjust compensation expense in the period that the change in estimate is made.
At March 26, 2016, there was $27.3 million and $97.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options and stock units (comprised of RSUs and PSUs), respectively, to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.3 years and 2.4 years, respectively.

(10) Share Repurchase
On November 11, 2013, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250.0 million of its outstanding common stock over the next three years. During the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased 4.3 million shares of its common stock for total consideration of $148.8 million with a weighted average per share price of $34.36. Total cash paid for these transactions during the second quarter aggregated $135.9 million with $12.9 million remaining unpaid as of March 26, 2016.

(12) Business Segments and Geographic Information
The Company has four reportable segments: Diagnostics, Breast Health, GYN Surgical and Skeletal Health. Certain reportable segments represent an aggregation of operating units within each segment. The Company measures and evaluates its reportable segments based on segment revenues and operating income adjusted to exclude the effect of non-cash charges, such as intangible asset amortization expense, intangible asset and goodwill impairment charges, acquisition related fair value adjustments and integration expenses, restructuring, divestiture and facility consolidation charges and other one-time or unusual items.
Identifiable assets for the four principal operating segments consist of inventories, intangible assets, goodwill, and property, plant and equipment. The Company fully allocates depreciation expense to its four reportable segments. The Company has presented all other identifiable assets as corporate assets. There were no intersegment revenues during the three and six months ended March 26, 2016 and March 28, 2015. Segment information is as follows:

(13) Income Taxes
In accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740), each interim period is considered integral to the annual period, and tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate. An entity is required to record income tax expense each quarter based on its annual effective tax rate estimated for the full fiscal year and use that rate to provide for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis, adjusted for discrete taxable events that occur during the interim period.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended March 26, 2016 was 25.0% and 25.5%, respectively, compared to 21.4% and 26.6%, respectively, for the corresponding periods in the prior year. For the current three and six month periods, the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to increased foreign profits at lower tax rates, the domestic production activities deduction benefit, and a change in the valuation allowance related to the sale of a marketable security that had a gain for book purposes. For the three and six months ended March 28, 2015, the effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate primarily due to the domestic production activities deduction benefit and reserve reversals attributable to a favorable income tax audit settlement.
In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. ASU 2015-17 simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the requirement for entities to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the balance sheet. Rather, it requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as noncurrent in the balance sheet. The Company adopted this standard prospectively in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, and prior periods were not retrospectively adjusted.

(17) New Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718). The guidance changes how companies account for certain aspects of share-based payments to employees. Entities will be required to recognize income tax effects of awards in the income statement when the awards vest or are settled. The guidance also allows an employer to repurchase more of an employee's shares than it can today for tax withholding purposes by providing for withholding at the employee's maximum rate as opposed to the minimum rate without triggering liability accounting and by allowing an entity-wide policy election to account for forfeitures as they occur. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The guidance requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of its leases with terms of more than 12 months. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses will depend on classification as a finance or operating lease. The amendments also require certain quantitative and qualitative disclosures about leasing arrangements. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The updated guidance requires a modified retrospective adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This guidance changes how entities measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method. Entities will be required to measure these investments at fair value at the end of each reporting period and recognize changes in fair value in net income. A practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values, however; the exception requires the Company to consider relevant transactions that can be reasonably known to identify any observable price changes that would impact the fair value. This guidance also changes certain disclosure requirements and other aspects of

current US GAAP. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-01 on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance under ASC 330, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. The new guidance requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This new guidance is effective for the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The guidance must be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this requirement on its consolidated financial statements but does not anticipate that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This guidance intends to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs and more closely align the presentation of debt issuance costs under U.S. GAAP to IFRS standards. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not anticipate that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
    
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This guidance focuses on a reporting company’s consolidation evaluation to determine whether certain legal entities should be consolidated. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not anticipate that adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 requires management to evaluate, at each annual or interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that exist that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued and provide related disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and is applicable to the Company in fiscal 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 660), which provides guidance for revenue recognition. This ASU is applicable to any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2014-09 will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In doing so, companies will need to use more judgment and make more estimates than under current U.S. GAAP. These judgments may include identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted in favor of delaying the effective date of the new standard by one year, with early adoption permitted as of the original effective date. ASU 2014-09 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, which is fiscal 2019 for the Company. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

OVERVIEW
We are a developer, manufacturer and supplier of premium diagnostics products, medical imaging systems and surgical products with an emphasis on women's health. The Company operates in four segments: Diagnostics, Breast Health, GYN Surgical and Skeletal Health. We sell and service our products through a combination of direct sales and service personnel and a network of independent distributors and sales representatives.

We offer a wide range of diagnostic products which are used primarily to aid in the diagnosis of human diseases and screen donated human blood and plasma. Our primary diagnostics products include our Aptima family of assays, which run on our advanced instrumentation systems (Panther and Tigris), our ThinPrep system, the Rapid Fetal Fibronectin Test and our Procleix blood screening assays. The Aptima family of assays is used to detect the infectious microorganisms that cause the common sexually transmitted diseases, or STDs, chlamydia and gonorrhea, certain high-risk strains of human papillomavirus, or HPV, and Trichomonas vaginalis, the parasite that causes trichomoniasis. The ThinPrep System is primarily used in cytology applications, such as cervical cancer screening, and the Rapid Fetal Fibronectin Test assists physicians in assessing the risk of pre-term birth. In blood screening, we develop and manufacture the Procleix family of assays, which are used to detect various infectious diseases. These blood screening products are marketed worldwide by our blood screening collaborator, Grifols S.A., or Grifols, under Grifols' trademarks.
Our Breast Health products include a broad portfolio of breast imaging and related products and accessories, including digital mammography systems, computer-aided detection, or CAD, for mammography and minimally invasive breast biopsy devices, breast biopsy site markers, and breast biopsy guidance systems. Our most advanced breast imaging platform, Dimensions, utilizes a technology called tomosynthesis to produce 3D images that show multiple contiguous slice images of the breast, which we refer to as the Genius 3D Mammography exam, as well as conventional 2D full field digital mammography images. Our clinical results for FDA approval demonstrated that conventional 2D digital mammography with the addition of 3D tomosynthesis is superior to 2D digital mammography alone for both screening and diagnostics.
Our GYN Surgical products include our NovaSure Endometrial Ablation System or NovaSure, and our MyoSure Hysteroscopic Tissue Removal System or MyoSure. The NovaSure system involves a trans-cervical procedure for the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding. The MyoSure system is a tissue removal device that is designed to provide incision-less removal of fibroids, polyps, and other pathology within the uterus.
Our Skeletal Health segment offers Discovery and Horizon X-ray bone densitometers that assess the bone density of fracture sites; and mini C-arm imaging systems that assist in performing minimally invasive surgical procedures on a patient's extremities, such as the hand, wrist, knee, foot, and ankle.

We generated an increase in product revenues in both the three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year across each of our business segments, with the exception of Skeletal Health. Product revenues increased 6.7% and 7.1%, respectively, in the current year periods, as reported growth was partially offset by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar against a number of currencies, most notably the Euro, Australian dollar and UK Pound.
Diagnostics product revenues increased 2.7% and 2.6% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year due to increases in Molecular Diagnostics of $5.6 million and $15.7 million, respectively, and Cytology & PeriNatal of $2.9 million and $3.5 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in Blood Screening of $0.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively.
Molecular Diagnostics product revenue, and in particular revenue related to our Aptima family of assays, increased in the current three and six month periods primarily due to our increased installed base of Panther instruments, which is driving higher volumes of assay testing. These increases were partially offset by a slight decline in average selling prices, a reduction in Cervista HPV revenues as our larger customers transition to our Panther system and the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar on our sales denominated in foreign currencies, which had more of an impact on the six month results than the current three month results. The increase in our Cytology & PeriNatal products in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year was primarily related to the increased sales of our ThinPrep Pap Test in the U.S. while international sales volumes were relatively flat. The international revenues in this business line were also impacted by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar on our sales denominated in foreign currencies, which had more of an impact on the six month results than the current three month results. Blood screening revenues decreased in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to a reduction in volumes related to the agreement between Grifols and the Japanese Red Cross. This revenue decrease was partially offset by fluctuations in Grifols' domestic inventory levels, including increased fulfillment of the West Nile Virus assay.
Breast Health product revenues increased 11.9% and 11.8% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to an increase in our digital mammography systems and related components revenue of $22.9 million and $40.8 million, respectively. This increase is primarily due to higher sales volume of our 3D Dimensions systems on a worldwide basis, principally driven by domestic sales, which represent a higher percentage of total 3D system sales and have higher average selling prices. In addition, we also had higher software sales primarily driven by our C-View product. These increases were partially offset by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar on our sales denominated in foreign currencies, which had more of an impact on the six month results than the current three month results, and decreases in the sales volume of our 2D Selenia product. In addition, the Company had no sales from its MRI coils business in fiscal 2016, which was fully disposed of during fiscal 2015 and contributed $5.1 million and $5.3 million for the three and six month periods ended March 28, 2015, respectively.

GYN Surgical product revenues increased 15.0% and 16.1% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to an increase in MyoSure system sales of $7.9 million and $19.2 million, respectively. NovaSure revenues increased by $3.6 million and $6.8 million, respectively, in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year as volumes increased domestically, which we believe is partially attributable to a recent competitive withdrawal from the market, and to a lesser extent internationally. These increases were partially offset by the negative foreign currency exchange impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar on our sales denominated in foreign currencies, which had more of an impact on the six month results than the current three month results.
Skeletal Health product revenues decreased 12.2% and 2.1% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to lower sales volumes of our older Discovery products, which were partially offset by increases in our Horizon osteoporosis assessment product sales volume. These decreases were driven by lower sales volumes internationally, which were partially offset by increased sales volumes domestically in both of the current three and six month periods. In addition, mini C-arm sales were lower in both of the current three and six month periods.
Product revenues by geography as a percentage of total product revenues were as follows:

The increase in product revenues in the United States as a percentage of consolidated product revenues in the current three and six month periods compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year was primarily the result of higher total product revenue in the U.S. in our Breast Health and Molecular Diagnostic product lines. The impact of the U.S. increases, lower overall international revenues, and the negative impact of the strengthening U.S. dollar, primarily against the Euro and UK Pound, resulted in a reduction in European and Asia-Pacific revenues as a percentage of consolidated revenues in both the current year periods.

Service and other revenues are primarily comprised of revenue generated from our field service organization to provide ongoing service, installation and repair of our products. The majority of these revenues are generated within our Breast Health segment. Service and other revenues increased 1.1% and 1.4% in the current three and six month periods, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year primarily due to slightly higher service contract renewal rates and higher installation and training revenues related to our increased sales of 3D Dimensions systems, and an increase in spare parts sales.
