15 1) During the second quarter of 2016, the Company recorded net restructuring and special items of $6.6 million. The charges included $4.5 million in severance and other personnel costs along with $4.6 million in facility-related costs associated with facility closures and general integration initiatives. The Company reversed previously established reserves of $2.2 million in unused facility-related costs and $0.3 million in unused personnel costs. The Company incurred additional legal and other costs of $1.1 million relating to the wind-down of its minimum volume contract operations. The Company also recorded $4.0 million in consulting expenses relating to fees incurred as part of its Covance integration costs and compensation analysis, along with $0.5 million in short-term equity retention arrangements relating to the acquisition of Covance and $0.4 million of accelerated equity compensation relating to the retirement of a Company executive and incurred $1.9 million of non-capitalized costs associated with the implementation of a major system as part of its LaunchPad business process improvement initiative (all recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses). In conjunction with certain international legal entity tax structuring, the Company recorded a one-time tax liability of $1.1 million. The after tax impact of these charges decreased net earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, by $10.6 million and diluted earnings per share by $0.10 ($10.6 million divided by 103.9 million shares). During the first quarter of 2016, the Company recorded net restructuring and other special charges of $19.2 million. The charges included $4.5 million in severance and other personnel costs along with $17.0 million in costs associated with facility closures and general integration initiatives. A substantial portion of these costs relate to the planned closure of duplicative data center operations. The Company reversed previously established reserves of $2.3 million in unused severance reserves primarily as the result of selling one of its minimum volume contract facilities to a third party. The Company incurred additional legal and other costs of $1.6 million relating to the wind-down of its minimum volume contract operations. The Company also recorded $1.7 million in consulting expenses relating to fees incurred as part of its Covance integration costs and compensation analysis, along with $1.2 million in short-term equity retention arrangements relating to the acquisition of Covance and $4.1 million of accelerated equity compensation relating to the announced retirement of a Company executive (all recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses). In addition, the Company incurred $1.5 million of non-capitalized costs associated with the implementation of a major system as part of its LaunchPad business process improvement initiative. The after tax impact of these charges decreased net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2016, by $29.6 million and diluted earnings per share by $0.28 ($29.6 million divided by 103.7 million shares). 2) During the second quarter of 2015, the Company recorded net restructuring and special items of $14.3 million. The charges included $6.3 million in severance and other personnel costs along with $8.6 million in facility-related costs associated with facility closures and general integration initiatives. The Company reversed previously established reserves of $0.6 million in unused facility-related costs. The Company also recorded $5.9 million in consulting expenses (recorded in selling, general and administrative) relating to fees incurred as part of its LaunchPad business process improvement initiative as well as Covance integration costs. In addition, the Company recorded $2.9 million in short-term equity retention arrangements relating to the acquisition of Covance. The after tax impact of these charges decreased net earnings for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, by $14.1 million and diluted earnings per share by $0.14 ($14.1 million divided by 102.5 million shares). RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES - FOOTNOTES


 
16 During the first quarter of 2015, the Company recorded net restructuring and other special charges of $19.3 million. The charges included $3.2 million in severance and other personnel costs along with $1.3 million in costs associated with facility closures and general integration initiatives. In addition, the Company recorded asset impairments of $14.8 million relating to lab and customer service applications that will no longer be used. The Company also recorded $6.0 million of consulting expenses relating to fees incurred as part of its LaunchPad business process improvement initiative. The Company recorded $166.0 million of one-time costs associated with its acquisition of Covance. The costs included $79.5 million of Covance employee equity awards, change in control payments and short-term retention arrangements that were accelerated or triggered by the acquisition transaction (all in SG&A in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations). The acquisition costs also included advisor and legal fees of $33.9 million (recorded in SG&A in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations), $15.2 million of deferred financing fees associated with the Company’s bridge loan facility as well as a make-whole payment of $37.4 million paid to call Covance’s private placement debt outstanding at the purchase date (both amounts recorded in interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations). The after tax impact of these charges decreased net earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2015, by $154.8 million and diluted earnings per share by $1.58 ($154.8 million divided by 98.1 million shares). 3) The Company continues to grow the business through acquisitions and uses Adjusted EPS Excluding Amortization as a measure of operational performance, growth and shareholder returns. The Company believes adjusting EPS for amortization provides investors with better insight into the operating performance of the business. For the quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, intangible amortization was $45.3 million and $44.6 million, respectively ($30.9 million and $30.1 million net of tax, respectively) and decreased EPS by $0.30 ($30.9 million divided by 103.9 million shares) and $0.29 ($30.1 million divided by 102.5 million shares), respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, intangible amortization was $89.6 million and $75.7 million, respectively ($61.0 million and $50.4 million net of tax, respectively) and decreased EPS by $0.59 ($61.0 million divided by 103.7 million shares) and $0.51 ($50.4 million divided by 98.1 million shares), respectively. 4) During the first quarter of 2015, the Company's operating cash flows were reduced due to payment of $153.5 million in acquisition-related charges. These payments were comprised of $75.5 million in legal and advisor fees, $40.6 million in accelerated Covance employee equity awards, and $37.4 million in make-whole payments triggered by calling Covance private placement notes outstanding at the time of the transaction.
