On May 2, 2018, announced the execution of a support agreement with debtholders holding in aggregate more than 72 per cent of its affected secured debt and more than 64 per cent of its affected unsecured debt in connection with a proposed recapitalization transaction that would raise $586.5 million, and reduce the Company’s outstanding debt by approximately $2.4 billion and reduce its annual interest costs by approximately $172 million
OAKVILLE, ON – May 15, 2018 – Concordia International Corp. (“Concordia” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CXRX) (TSX: CXR), an international specialty pharmaceutical company focused on becoming a leader in European specialty, off-patent medicines, today announced its financial and operational results for the first quarter of 2018. All financial references are in U.S. dollars (USD) unless otherwise noted.
“Concordia’s first quarter results were consistent with management’s expectations,” said Graeme Duncan, interim Chief Executive Officer of Concordia. “The Company has also recently made significant progress

1




towards the realignment of its capital structure. Looking forward, we are optimistic Concordia can complete its proposed recapitalization transaction by July 31, 2018 and emerge as a stronger business.”
Consolidated First Quarter 2018 Financial and Operational Results
Reported first quarter revenue of $152.3 million, compared to $160.6 million for the first quarter of 2017, and $150.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2017.
GAAP net loss for the first quarter of $55.7 million.
Reported first quarter adjusted EBITDA1 of $72.0 million, compared to $84.2 million for the first quarter of 2017, and $70.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2017.
On a constant currency basis, first quarter 2018 revenue and adjusted EBITDA were 2.2% and 2.0% lower than their respective amounts in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Generated cash flows from operating activities of $50.6 million in the first quarter of 2018, compared to $86.2 million in the first quarter of 2017.
As of March 31, 2018, the Company’s liquidity consisted of $343.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.
On May 2, 2018, Concordia announced the execution of a support agreement with debtholders holding in aggregate more than 72 per cent of its affected secured debt and more than 64 per cent of its affected unsecured debt in connection with a proposed recapitalization transaction that would raise $586.5 million and reduce the Company’s outstanding debt by approximately $2.4 billion and reduce its annual interest costs by approximately $172 million.
In connection with the proposed recapitalization transaction, on May 2, 2018, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (“the Court”) issued an interim order authorizing the holding of meetings of affected debtholders and shareholders to vote on Concordia’s CBCA plan of arrangement pursuant to which the proposed recapitalization transaction is to be implemented.

2




Completion of the proposed recapitalization transaction will be subject to, among other things, approval of the CBCA plan of arrangement by the requisite majorities of the secured debtholders and the unsecured debtholders at the meetings to be held on June 19, 2018, such other approvals as may be required by the Court or the TSX, other applicable regulatory approvals, approval of the CBCA plan of arrangement by the Court and the satisfaction or waiver of applicable conditions precedent.

First Quarter 2018 Segment Results
Concordia International segment’s revenue for the first quarter of 2018 was $113.0 million compared to $113.7 million in the fourth quarter of the 2017.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $5.8 million or 5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017.
This decrease is attributable to volume and price declines on key products, including Liothyronine Sodium, Trazodone, and Prednisolone. These revenue decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenue from Nitrofurantoin. The sterling strengthening against the U.S. dollar resulted in $14.7 million of additional translated revenue in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017.
Concordia North America segment’s first quarter 2018 revenue of $39.3 million was moderately higher than fourth quarter 2017 revenue of $36.5 million.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $2.5 million or 6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease was primarily attributable to competitive pressures on products, including Donnatal® and Kapvay®. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenue from Plaquenil® authorized generic.

Pipeline Update
In the first quarter of 2018, Concordia launched one new product into markets that have a current IMS estimated market value in excess of $20 million.

Concordia also has 28 products that have already been approved or are awaiting approval by the regulators. These products, if launched, are expected to compete in markets that have a current IMS estimated market value in excess of $250 million.

In addition, the Company currently has 17 products under development that are anticipated to launch in the next three to five years. These products, if launched, are expected to compete in markets that have a current IMS estimated market value in excess of $1.4 billion.

The Company believes that these products include several first-to-market or early-to-market opportunities for difficult-to-make products.

Additionally, Concordia has 14 products identified for potential development that if launched, are expected to compete in markets that have a current IMS estimated market value in excess of $350 million.

Therefore, in total, Concordia’s current pipeline is now comprised of approximately 60 products that could compete in markets that have a current IMS estimated market value in excess of $2 billion.

With its recently announced leadership transition, the Company will continue to evaluate the composition of its pipeline of medicines.

Leadership Transition
Concordia announced on May 2, 2018, that Graeme Duncan has been appointed interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Duncan succeeded Concordia’s previous CEO, Allan Oberman, who left the Company to pursue other opportunities.

The Company also announced on May 2, 2018, that its Chief Corporate Development Officer, Sarwar Islam, left the Company to pursue other opportunities. Guy Clark, previously Chief Strategy Officer at AMCo Pharmaceuticals from 2013 to 2015, joined Concordia, effective May 3, 2018, as the Company’s Chief Corporate Development Officer.

Consolidated Results of Operations
Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $8.3 million, or 5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease was due to lower sales from both segments, partially offset by higher foreign exchange

5




rates impacting translated revenues from the Concordia International segment for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Revenues were lower primarily due to lower volumes resulting from competition on a number of the Company's products in both segments.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $14.3 million or 12%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017 primarily due to the revenue decreases described above. The decrease in gross profit percentage of 6% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017, is primarily due to a change in the mix of product sales within both segments.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $15.3 million, or 16%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Operating expenses were higher for the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to $10.3 million higher restructuring costs arising from the Company's initiative to realign its capital structure and $8.9 million higher amortization charges on intangible assets, partially offset by $1.7 million lower share-based compensation expense and $1.6 million lower general and administrative costs.

General and administrative expenses reflect costs related to salaries and benefits, professional and consulting fees, public company costs, travel, facility leases and other administrative expenditures. General and administrative expenses of $12.2 million for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease is a result of the Company's objective to reduce operating costs across the business.
Selling and marketing expenses reflect costs incurred by the Company for the marketing, promotion and sale of the Company’s broad portfolio of products across the Company's segments. Selling and marketing costs of $9.8 million for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $0.05 million compared to the corresponding period in 2017 primarily as a result of unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements impacting translation.

6




Research and development expenses reflect costs for clinical trial activities, product development, professional and consulting fees and services associated with the activities of the medical, clinical and scientific affairs, quality assurance costs, regulatory compliance and drug safety costs (pharmacovigilance) of the Company. Research and development costs for the first quarter of 2018 of $7.1 million decreased by $0.9 million, or 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease is primarily due to a refund for regulatory fees.
The current income tax expense recorded for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $1.3 million compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Income taxes were lower primarily due to lower taxable income compared to the corresponding period in 2017, partially offset by the impact of foreign exchange translation of the income tax expense from the Concordia International segment.
The net loss for the first quarter of 2018 was $55.7 million. Significant components comprising the net loss for the first quarter of 2018 are interest and accretion expenses of $80.1 million and amortization of intangible assets of $65.6 million offset by gross profit of $101.1 million.
Adjusted EBITDA of $72.0 million for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $12.2 million, or 15%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decline is primarily due to lower sales and gross margins from both segments, partially offset by higher foreign exchange rates impacting translated results during the first quarter of 2018.
As of March 31, 2018, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $344 million and 51,283,574 common shares issued and outstanding.

Non-IFRS Measures
This press release makes reference to certain measures that are not recognized measures under International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. When used, these measures are defined in such terms as to allow the reconciliation to the closest IFRS measure. These measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute to the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. Management uses non-IFRS measures such as

8




EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted gross profit to provide investors with supplemental information of the Company’s operating performance and thus highlight trends in the Company’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Management believes that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets, to assess its ability to meet future debt service requirements, in making capital expenditures, and to consider the business’s working capital requirements. Readers are cautioned that the non-IFRS measures contained herein may not be appropriate for any other purpose.
Adjusted Gross Profit
As used herein, adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit adjusted for non-cash fair value increases to the cost of acquired inventory from a business combination. Under IFRS, acquired inventory is required to be written-up to fair value at the date of acquisition. As this inventory is sold the fair value adjustment represents a non-cash cost of sale amount that has been excluded in adjusted gross profit in order to normalize gross profit for this non-cash component.

EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net loss from continuing operations adjusted for net interest and accretion expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. Management uses EBITDA to assess the Company’s operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA

9




Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain charges including costs associated with acquisitions, restructuring initiatives, and other costs (which includes onerous contract costs and direct costs associated with contractual terminations), management retention costs, non-operating gains / losses, integration costs, legal settlements (net of insurance recoveries) and related legal costs, non-cash items such as unrealized gains / losses on derivative instruments, share based compensation, fair value changes including purchase consideration and derivative financial instruments, asset impairments, fair value increases to inventory arising from purchased inventory from a business combination, gains / losses from the sale of assets and unrealized gains / losses related to foreign exchange. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other non-IFRS financial measures, as the key metric in assessing business performance when comparing actual results to budgets and forecasts. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance and cash flow, and provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in the underlying business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures.

Notice regarding future-oriented financial information:

To the extent any forward-looking statements or forward-looking information in this press release or in statements made during the earnings conference call constitute future-oriented financial information or financial outlooks within the meaning of applicable securities laws, such information is being provided to demonstrate the potential financial performance of the Company and readers are cautioned that this information may not be appropriate for any other purpose and that they should not place undue reliance on such future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks.

Future-oriented financial information and financial outlooks (collectively, “FOFI”), as with forward-looking statements and forward-looking information generally, are, without limitation, based on the assumptions and subject to the risks set out below under “Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”, a number of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, the following is summary of the significant assumptions underlying the FOFI contained in the Company’s earnings disclosure:

•    prescription trends;
•    pricing for the Company’s products;
•    future market demand trends;

11




•    mix of sales to government and non-government customers;
•    gross profits for each product;
•    foreign currency rates, including translation between the U.S. dollar and the pound sterling;
•    inventory levels;
•    operating cost estimates;
•    ability to develop and market future product launches;
•    anticipated timing of future product launches;
•    cost to develop future products;
•    anticipated timing to exit markets;
•    operating cost synergies realized; and
•    annual cost of current tax by jurisdiction

The FOFI do not purport to present the Company’s financial condition in accordance with IFRS, and there can be no assurance that the assumptions made in preparing the FOFI will prove accurate. It is expected that there will be differences between actual and forecasted results, and the differences may be material, including due to the occurrence of unforeseen events occurring subsequent to the preparation of the FOFI. The inclusion of the FOFI in the earnings disclosure should not be regarded as an indication that Concordia considers the FOFI to be a reliable prediction of future events, and the FOFI should not be relied upon as such.

Risks and other factors related to FOFI include those risks and other factors referenced in this press release as well as in Concordia’s filings with the Canadian Securities Administrators and the Securities and Exchange Commission, including (a) the factors described under the heading “Forward-looking Statements” in Concordia’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis dated May 15, 2018 for the period ended March 31, 2018 and (b) the factors described under the heading “Risk Factors” in Concordia’s

3    Recent Events

Canada Business Corporations Act (the "CBCA") Proceedings
On October 20, 2017, the Company announced that it and one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries commenced a court proceeding under the CBCA.
On May 2, 2018, the Company announced a proposed transaction to realign its capital structure (the “Recapitalization Transaction”).
The proposed Recapitalization Transaction would raise new equity capital of $586.5 million, and to reduce the Company’s total outstanding debt by approximately $2.4 billion.
In connection with the proposed Recapitalization Transaction, the Company entered into a support agreement (the “Support Agreement”) with certain holders of the Company’s existing secured debt (the “Secured Debt”) and certain holders of the Company’s existing unsecured debt (the “Unsecured Debt”) that are subject to confidentiality agreements with Concordia and which hold in the aggregate approximately $1.6 billion in principal amount, or approximately 72%, of the Company’s Secured Debt and approximately $1.0 billion in principal amount, or approximately 64% of the Company’s Unsecured Debt (the “Initial Consenting Debtholders”). The Initial Consenting Debtholders are comprised of an ad hoc committee of holders of Secured Debt and an ad hoc committee of holders of Unsecured Debt. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Initial Consenting Debtholders have, among other things, agreed to support the Recapitalization Transaction and vote in favour of the plan of arrangement (the “CBCA Plan”) in Concordia’s previously announced proceedings (the "CBCA Proceedings") under the CBCA pursuant to which the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be implemented.
In addition, on May 2, 2018 Concordia obtained an interim order (the “Interim Order”) issued by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the "Court") in the CBCA Proceedings authorizing, among other things, the holding of the following meetings (the “Meetings”) scheduled for June 19, 2018: (i) a meeting of holders of the Secured Debt (the “Secured Debtholders”); (ii) a meeting of holders of the Unsecured Debt (the “Unsecured Debtholders”); and (iii) a meeting (the "Shareholders' Meeting") of holders of the Company’s common shares (the “Shareholders”), in each case to consider and vote upon, among other things, the CBCA Plan to implement the Recapitalization Transaction.
Certain Key Recapitalization Transaction Terms
The Recapitalization Transaction contemplates the following key terms and conditions:
Secured Debt
The Company’s Secured Debt in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $2.2 billion, plus accrued and unpaid interest, will be exchanged for (i) cash in an amount equal to any outstanding accrued and unpaid interest (at contractual non-default rates) in respect of the Secured Debt, (ii) cash in the amount of $500 million (the “Secured Creditor Cash Pool”), (iii) any Additional Cash Amount (as defined below) and (iv) new secured debt (the “New Secured Debt”) comprised of new senior secured term loans (“New Senior Secured Term Loans”) and new senior secured notes (“New Senior Secured Notes”). The Company expects the aggregate principal amount of the New Secured Debt to be issued to Secured Debtholders pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction to be approximately $1.4 billion;
Each Secured Debtholder will receive its pro rata share of the New Secured Debt, in the form of either New Senior Secured Term Loans or New Senior Secured Notes depending on the type of Secured Debt held by such Secured Debtholder, subject to (i) holders of the Company’s existing secured term loans as of the record date of May 9, 2018 (the “Record Date”) having the right to elect to receive their New Secured Debt in the form of New Senior Secured Notes, provided that any such elections may be subject to certain re-allocations pursuant to the terms of the Recapitalization Transaction, and (ii) Secured Debtholders receiving New Senior Secured Term Loans having the right to elect to receive their New Senior Secured Term Loans denominated in USD or Euros, provided that any such elections may be subject to certain re-allocations pursuant to the terms of the Recapitalization Transaction;
Secured Debtholders as of the Record Date who vote in favour of the CBCA Plan on or prior to the early consent date of June 6, 2018 (the “Early Consent Date”), as it may be extended by Concordia (the “Early Consenting Secured Debtholders”) will be entitled to receive on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan early consent consideration in the form of cash equal to 5% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Early Consenting Secured Debtholder as of the Record Date and voted in favour of the CBCA Plan (the “Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration”) as additional consideration in exchange for their Secured Debt;
If the aggregate amount of Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration that becomes payable pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction is less than $100 million, then an amount equal to the difference between $100 million and the amount of Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration that becomes payable (the “Additional Cash Amount”) will be paid on a pro rata basis to each Secured Debtholder as additional consideration in exchange for their Secured Debt; and
The final principal amount of New Secured Debt to be issued pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction shall be in such amount that results in the aggregate consideration payable to Secured Debtholders pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction by way of the Secured Creditor Cash Pool, the New Secured Debt and the Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration (but not including the payment of accrued and unpaid interest or the Additional Cash Amount) being equal to 93.3835% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Secured Debtholders if such Secured Debtholders are Early Consenting Secured Debtholders,

Concordia Management's Discussion and Analysis
Page 4



and approximately 88.3835% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Secured Debtholders if such Secured Debtholders are not Early Consenting Secured Debtholders.

Unsecured Debt
The Company’s Unsecured Debt in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.6 billion, plus accrued and unpaid interest, will be exchanged for (i) new common shares of Concordia representing approximately 8% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following the implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction (the “Unsecured Debt Exchange Shares”) and (ii) any Reallocated Unsecured Shares (as defined below);
Unsecured Debtholders as of the Record Date who vote in favour of the CBCA Plan on or prior to the Early Consent Date, as it may be extended by Concordia (the “Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholders”) will be entitled to receive on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan early consent consideration in the form of new common shares of Concordia equal to their pro rata share (calculated based on the principal amount of Unsecured Debt held by such Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholders as at the Record Date and voted in favour of the CBCA Plan, divided by the aggregate principal amount of Unsecured Debt outstanding as at the Record Date) of a pool of common shares (the “Unsecured Early Consent Share Pool”) representing approximately 4% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan (the “Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares”) as additional consideration in exchange for their Unsecured Debt; and
If less than 100% of Unsecured Debt is voted in favour of the CBCA Plan by Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholders, any shares remaining in the Unsecured Early Consent Share Pool not issued as Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares (the “Reallocated Unsecured Shares”) will be issued to all holders of Unsecured Debt on a pro rata basis as additional consideration for their Unsecured Debt.

Private Placement
Approximately $586.5 million (the “Total Offering Size”) in cash will be invested to acquire new common shares of Concordia representing in the aggregate approximately 88% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following the implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction (the “Private Placement Shares”) by certain parties who executed a subscription agreement with the Company (the “Subscription Agreement”) concurrently with the execution of the Support Agreement (the “Private Placement Parties”) pursuant to a private placement (the “Private Placement”);
The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used towards paying the Secured Creditor Cash Pool and the Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration to be paid as part of the consideration for the exchange of the Secured Debt;
Each of the Private Placement Parties will be entitled to receive its pro rata share (based on its subscription commitment) of cash consideration in the aggregate amount of $44 million (subject to any corresponding adjustments to the extent the Total Offering Size is reduced pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement) (the “Private Placement Consideration”), which is payable on the terms set out in the Subscription Agreement, including on completion of the Recapitalization Transaction and certain earlier events; and
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Private Placement Parties and the Company expect to agree on certain governance terms and registration rights.  The governance terms will be described in more detail in the Company’s management information circular to be mailed to Secured Debtholders, Unsecured Debtholders and Shareholders in connection with the various Meetings to be held to approve the CBCA Plan.

Existing Shares and Equity Claims
Upon completion of the Recapitalization Transaction, existing Shareholders will retain their existing common shares of Concordia, subject to a share consolidation of one common share in exchange for 300 existing common shares to be implemented as part of the Recapitalization Transaction and the dilution resulting from the issuance of common shares pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction, such that the existing Shareholders will own approximately 0.35% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction; and
All other equity interests in Concordia, including all options, warrants, rights or similar instruments, will be cancelled on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan, and all equity claims, other than existing equity class action claims against Concordia (the “Existing Equity Class Action Claims”), will be released pursuant to the CBCA Plan, provided that any recovery in respect of any Existing Equity Class Action Claims will be limited to recovery as against any applicable insurance policies maintained by the Company.

Share Dilution
The existing common shares retained by the Shareholders upon implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction and the common shares to be issued under the CBCA Plan, including the Unsecured Debt Exchange Shares, the Reallocated Unsecured Shares, the Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares and the Private Placement Shares, shall be subject to dilution following the completion of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the issuance of any new common shares under the management equity incentive plan to be adopted pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction.


Concordia Management's Discussion and Analysis
Page 5



Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of applicable conditions, the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be completed by July 31, 2018.
In connection with the Recapitalization Transaction, it is anticipated that Concordia will continue from the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) to the CBCA.
Alternative Implementation Process
The Recapitalization Transaction is being implemented pursuant to the CBCA Plan. The Company is also soliciting votes to advance the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to insolvency proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (a “Chapter 11 Process”), contemporaneously with soliciting votes in respect of the CBCA Plan. Concordia currently intends to complete and implement the CBCA Plan pursuant to the CBCA Proceedings. Contemporaneous solicitation of votes in respect of a Chapter 11 Process ensures that the Company has the future ability to also complete the Recapitalization Transaction under such an alternative implementation process if the Company elects to do so in the future, subject to certain conditions and consent requirements as provided for in the Support Agreement. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Interim Order, a vote cast in favour of the CBCA Plan at the Meetings may also be counted in favour of implementing a plan of arrangement on substantially similar terms in any insolvency proceedings under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) that may be commenced by the Company, to the extent such proceedings are consented to by the majority private placement parties and the majority initial consenting debtholders.
Management and Board of Director Changes
On May 2, 2018, the Company announced that it appointed Graeme Duncan as its interim Chief Executive Officer, and also announced the departure of Allan Oberman, the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and Board Member. The Company paid approximately $7.7 million in severance to the former Chief Executive Officer.
On May 2, 2018, the Company also announced that it appointed Guy Clark as the Company's Chief Corporate Development Officer, and also announced the departure of Sarwar Islam, the Company's former Chief Corporate Development Officer.
Relocation of Corporate Head Office
During the second quarter of 2018, the Company's corporate head office is expected to be relocated to 5770 Hurontario Street, Suite 310, Mississauga, Ontario, L5R 3G5. At the Shareholders' Meeting, Shareholders will be asked to approve a resolution to move the corporate head office to Mississauga, Ontario.
Notification of the termination of the Currency Swaps and termination of Revolving Commitments
On October 20, 2017, the counterparty to the Company's August 17, 2016 cross currency swap agreement ("August Swap Agreement") and November 3, 2016 cross currency swap agreement ("November Swap Agreement", and together with the August Swap Agreement, the "Currency Swaps") notified the Company that it would be terminating the Currency Swaps effective October 23, 2017 due to commencement of the CBCA Proceedings. As part of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company has agreed to the amount of the Currency Swaps liability ($114,431), which amount will be addressed in the same manner as the Secured Debt under the Recapitalization Transaction. In addition, on October 27, 2017, the Company terminated the revolving commitments under the Company's credit agreement dated October 21, 2015, as amended ("Credit Agreement"). No amounts had been drawn or were outstanding in respect of the revolving commitments at such time.
Rating Agency Changes
On May 7, 2018, Standard & Poors Global Ratings ("S&P") lowered its issue-level ratings on Concordia’s Secured Debt to "CC" from "CCC-". S&P noted that its “SD” corporate credit rating and "D" rating on Concordia’s Unsecured Debt remained unchanged. In addition, on May 8, 2018, Moody’s Investors Service ("Moody’s") placed the Company’s “Ca” Corporate Family Rating and Ca-PD/LD Probability of Default Rating under review for upgrade. Moody’s also affirmed its "Caa2" senior secured ratings and "C" senior unsecured ratings. The SGL-4 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating was also affirmed. To the extent that the Company intends to complete any future transactions following the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company’s ability to complete any such transactions may be effected by credit rating agency decisions.
Business Impact in Relation to Brexit
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom held a referendum and voted to withdraw from the European Union ("Brexit"). On March 29, 2017, the United Kingdom delivered notice to the European Council in accordance with Article 50 of the Treaty on European Union of the United Kingdom’s intention to withdraw from the European Union. The Company understands that the timeframe for the negotiated withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union is approximately two (2) years from the date of the withdrawal notification. However, as no member state has formally withdrawn from the European Union in the past, there is no precedent for the operation of Article 50 and, as a result, the timing and outcome of Brexit continues to be uncertain at this time. The Concordia International segment has significant operations within the United Kingdom and other parts of the European Union, and therefore continues to monitor developments related to Brexit, including the impact resulting from currency market movements.

Business Impact in Relation to the UK Health Service Medical Supplies (Costs) Act 2017 (the "Act")
The Act received Royal Assent on April 27, 2017.  The Act introduces provisions in connection with controlling the cost of health service medicines and other medical supplies.  The Act also introduces provisions in connection with the provision of pricing and other information by manufacturers, distributors and suppliers of those medicines and medical supplies. The Company continues to monitor the implementation of the Act and its impact on its business. Refer to the "Risk Factors" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F dated March 8, 2018.

Represents a non-IFRS measure. For the relevant definitions and reconciliation to reported results, see "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section of this MD&A. Management believes non-IFRS measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, provide supplementary information to IFRS measures used in assessing the performance of the business.
Revenue
Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $8,293, or 5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease was due to lower sales from both segments, partially offset by higher foreign exchange rates impacting translated revenues from the Concordia International segment for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Revenues were lower primarily due to lower volumes resulting from competition on a number of the Company's products in both segments. The Concordia International segment revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $5,779, or 5%, due to $20,463 lower revenue primarily as a result of volume and price declines on key products, including Liothyronine Sodium, Trazodone and Predisolone, partially offset by $14,684 higher revenue as a result of favourable foreign exchange rates positively impacting translated results. The Concordia North America segment revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by 6% when compared to the corresponding period in 2017, mainly as a result of lower volumes on key products, including Donnatal® and Kapvay®. Refer to the "Segment Performance" section of this MD&A for a further discussion on segmental and product specific performance.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit %
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $14,309, or 12%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017 primarily due to the revenue decreases described above. The decrease in gross profit percentage of 6% for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017, is primarily due to a change in the mix of product sales within both segments. Refer to the "Segment Performance" section of this MD&A for a further discussion on segmental and product specific performance.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $15,296, or 16%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Operating expenses were higher during the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to $10,278 higher restructuring costs arising from the Company's initiative to realign its capital structure and $8,890 higher amortization charges on intangible assets, partially offset by $1,685 lower share based compensation expense and $1,570 lower general and administrative costs. For a further detailed description of operating expenses, refer to the "Corporate and Other Costs" section of this MD&A. For a further detailed description of certain segment operating expenses, refer to "Segment Performance" section of this MD&A.
Operating income (loss) for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $29,605 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 due to the decrease in gross profit and higher operating expenses as described above.

The current income tax expense recorded for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $1,296 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. Income taxes were lower primarily due to lower taxable income compared to the corresponding period in 2017, partially offset by the impact of foreign exchange translation of the income tax expense from the Concordia International segment. The deferred income tax expense recorded for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $1,511 and is mainly the result of movements in the foreign exchange rates, partially offset by the reversal of certain temporary differences.

The net loss for the first quarter of 2018 was $55,694 and EPS loss was $1.09 per share. Significant components comprising the net loss for the first quarter of 2018 are interest and accretion expenses of $80,122 and amortization of intangible assets of $65,607 offset by gross profit of $101,106. Refer to the "Corporate and Other Costs" section of this MD&A for further information related to expenses impacting net loss.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is higher than the net loss as it excludes: interest and accretion expense; interest income; income taxes; depreciation; and amortization of intangible assets. Refer to the "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for a full reconciliation. EBITDA for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $37,571 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The increase in EBITDA was primarily due to $27,314 lower fair value loss on derivative financial instruments and $31,341 higher unrealized foreign exchange gain, partially offset by $14,309 lower gross profit and $10,278 higher acquisition related, restructuring and other costs.
Adjusted EBITDA also includes adjustments for: impairments; fair value adjustments to acquired inventory; acquisition related, restructuring and other costs; share-based compensation; fair value (gain) loss including purchase consideration and derivative financial instruments; foreign exchange (gain) loss; unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss; and legal settlements and related legal costs (refer to the "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for a full reconciliation and description of these expenses). Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $12,218, or 15%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decline is primarily due to lower sales and gross margins from both segments, partially offset by higher foreign exchange rates impacting translated results during the first quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA by segment for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $51,748 from Concordia International and $24,273 from Concordia North America. Refer to the "Segment Performance" section of this MD&A for a further discussion on segment performance. In addition, during the first quarter of 2018 the Company incurred $3,997 of Corporate costs related to the Corporate Head Office. Corporate expenses decreased by $1,641 compared to the corresponding period in 2017, primarily due to lower general and administrative expenses, including professional fees incurred during the first quarter of 2018.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $5,779 or 5%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. A $20,463 decrease in revenue was partially offset by a $14,684 increase in revenue as a result of the Great British Pound ("GBP") strengthening against the USD, given a significant portion of the segment revenues are earned in GBP. Declines to revenue attributable to key products during the quarter, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, were: (i) a $9,488 decrease from Liothyronine Sodium; (ii) a $2,384 decrease from Trazodone; (iii) a $2,064 decrease from Prednisolone; (vi) a $1,643 decrease from Biperiden Hydrochloride; and (v) a $1,244 decrease from Prochlorperazine. These lower product volumes and revenues are primarily due to ongoing competitive market pressures resulting in market share erosion. These revenue decreases were partially offset by $2,751 increased revenue from Nitrofurantoin. The remaining decrease was primarily due to general competitive market pressures across the segment's product portfolio.
Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $4,172 or 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The increase in cost of sales during the first quarter of 2018 is primarily due to the impact of foreign exchange, partially offset by volume declines from products described above.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $9,951 primarily due to the factors described above.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by 5% compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a shift in product mix, with certain higher margin products experiencing additional market competition, when compared to the first quarter of 2017.
General and administrative, selling and marketing and research and development costs increased by $1,231 primarily due to the impact of foreign exchange. Excluding the $2,249 unfavorable impact of foreign exchange, these costs decreased by $1,018 as a result of lower general and administrative expenses.

Revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $2,514 or 6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease was primarily due to: (i) a $3,533 decrease from Donnatal®, as a result of additional competitive pressures that have resulted in a loss of market share; and (ii) a $2,456 decrease from Kapvay®. In the first quarter of 2018, Donnatal® continued to face pressure from a non-FDA approved product being distributed by a competitor and an additional competitive product launched in the second quarter of 2017. These decreases were partially offset by a $1,516 increase in revenue from Plaquenil® authorized generic. The remaining decrease was primarily due to general competitive market pressures across the segment's product portfolio.
Cost of sales for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $1,844, or 24%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The increase in cost of sales when compared with the decrease in revenue is due to a shift in product mix to lower margin products.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $4,358, or 13%, primarily due to lower revenue as described above.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by 6%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease was primarily due to a shift in product mix.
General and administrative, selling and marketing and research and development costs decreased by $1,992 primarily due to lower bad debt expenses and a refund of regulatory fees, partially offset by higher selling and marketing costs associated with the co-promotion agreement for sales of Donnatal®.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses reflect costs related to salaries and benefits, professional and consulting fees, public company costs, travel, facility leases and other administrative expenditures. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease is a result of the Company's objective to reduce operating costs across the business.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses reflect costs incurred by the Company for the marketing, promotion and sale of the Company’s broad portfolio of products across the Company's segments. Selling and marketing costs for the first quarter of 2018 increased by $46 compared to the corresponding period in 2017 primarily as a result of unfavorable foreign exchange rate movements impacting translation.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses reflect costs for clinical trial activities, product development, professional and consulting fees and services associated with the activities of the medical, clinical and scientific affairs, quality assurance costs, regulatory compliance and drug safety costs (Pharmacovigilence) of the Company. Research and development costs for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $878, or 11%, compared to the corresponding period in 2017. This decrease is primarily due to a refund of regulatory fees.
Acquisition Related, Restructuring and Other Costs
Acquisition related, restructuring and other costs during the first quarter of 2018 were $15,494. Acquisition related, restructuring and other costs for the first quarter of 2018 increased by 197% primarily due to costs associated with consultants involved in the Company's capital realignment initiative.
Significant costs incurred during the first quarter of 2018 include $8,261 of costs associated with the Company's realignment of its capital structure which include costs of the Company's advisors and advisors of the lending syndicate, $2,326 of management retention costs, $1,931 of costs related to severance, and $2,487 related to ongoing regulatory matters relating to the UK Competition and Markets Authority ("CMA") investigations (refer to the "Litigation and Arbitration" section of this MD&A for further details). The remaining costs relate primarily to costs associated with the ongoing class action lawsuits involving the Company (refer to the "Litigation and Arbitration" section of this MD&A for further details).

Concordia Management's Discussion and Analysis
Page 12



Share-Based Compensation
The share based compensation expense relates to the fair value of share-based option, restricted share unit ("RSU") and deferred share unit ("DSU") awards to employees, management and directors of the Company. Share based compensation during the first quarter of 2018 was $1,267. The decrease in the expense of $1,685 for the period is primarily due to no RSUs or DSUs being issued since the second quarter of 2017, and the impact of the staged vesting of the outstanding share-based options and RSUs.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
Amortization of intangible assets was $8,890 higher for the first quarter of 2018 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The higher expense is due to the Company's change in accounting estimate with respect to amortizing intangible assets in both segments. The expense for the first quarter of 2018 of $65,607 is comprised of the following amounts:
Amortization related to acquired product rights and manufacturing processes for the first quarter of 2018 was $57,255;
Amortization related to distribution and supplier contracts for the first quarter of 2018 was $7,751. Distribution and supplier contracts are amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years; and
Amortization related to other intangibles for the first quarter of 2018 was $601.
Interest and Accretion
Interest and accretion expenses for the first quarter of 2018 were $80,122 representing a decrease of $12,419 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease is primarily due to:
The termination of the Currency Swaps during the fourth quarter of 2017 which resulted in $18,303 lower interest expense during the first quarter of 2018 (as well as lower interest income as described below); and
The acceleration of all deferred financing fees during the fourth quarter of 2017 which resulted in $7,461 lower costs compared to the corresponding period in 2017.
Offset primarily by:
A $12,230 higher interest expense on the Company's debt agreements as a result of: (i) events of default on certain of the Company's debt agreements; (ii) higher LIBOR rates; and (iii) a change in foreign exchange rates resulting in higher interest expense on the Company's GBP denominated term loan.
Interest Income
Interest income for the first quarter of 2018 was $706, representing a decrease of $17,773 due to the termination of the Currency Swaps during the fourth quarter of 2017 as a result of the CBCA Proceedings.
Fair value loss on Derivative Contracts
The fair value loss on derivative contracts was $nil for the first quarter of 2018 compared with $27,314 in the corresponding period in 2017 as a result of the termination of the Currency Swaps. On October 20, 2017, the Company was notified by the counterparty to the Currency Swaps that one or more events of default had occurred under the Currency Swaps as a result of the Company obtaining a preliminary interim order from the Court pursuant to the arrangement provisions of the CBCA. As a result of the foregoing, the counterparty designated October 23, 2017 as the early termination date with respect to all transactions under the Currency Swaps. As part of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company has agreed to the amount of the Currency Swaps liability ($114,431), which amount will be addressed in the same manner as the Secured Debt under the Recapitalization Transaction.
Foreign Exchange (Gain) Loss and Unrealized Foreign Exchange (Gain) Loss
Foreign exchange (gain) loss for the first quarter of 2018 was a loss of $1,341.
Unrealized foreign exchange gain for the first quarter of 2018 was $41,006.  The primary component of the unrealized foreign exchange gain is a result of IFRS requiring that inter-company trading balances denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of an entity being retranslated with the exchange differences flowing through the consolidated statement of loss with the off-set within other comprehensive income (loss).
The foreign exchange translation impact of the Concordia International segment is recorded within other comprehensive loss. During the first quarter of 2018, there was a total of $10,569 foreign exchange gains, net of tax, associated with the translation of entities with a different functional currency, primarily within the Concordia International segment, offset by $22,690 of foreign exchange losses associated with the translation of the Company's GBP denominated term loan.

(1) Represents a non-IFRS measure. For the relevant definitions see the "
Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section of this MD&A. For the relevant reconciliation to reported results, see the "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section of this MD&A for the first quarter of 2018 and corresponding period in 2017, and for other periods presented, refer to previous publicly filed MD&As.
During the quarterly periods presented above, the Company has experienced a declining trend in operating results. Subsequent to the second quarter of 2016, the business experienced greater than expected market competition on certain products and industry specific environmental changes, which together have resulted in the Company recording a significant amount of impairment charges with respect to acquired intangible assets from its acquisitions, including intellectual property rights and goodwill. Management has focused the discussion and analysis below on comparing to the most recent quarters presented above in order to describe the most current business trends that have occurred in the first quarter of 2018.

Revenues in the first quarter of 2018 were $152,264 which consisted of $112,950 from the Concordia International segment, and $39,314 from the Concordia North America segment. Revenues during the fourth quarter of 2017 were $150,205 which consisted of $113,663 from the Concordia International segment, and $36,542 from the Concordia North America segment. Revenue from the Concordia International segment decreased by $713, or 1%, primarily due to the impact of: (i) $1,992 lower revenue from Fusidic Acid; (ii) $1,355 lower revenue from Carbimazole; and (iii) $1,188 lower revenue from Hydralazine Hcl, partially offset by: (i) a $5,492 increase in revenue as a result of the GBP strengthening against the USD; (ii) $1,505 higher revenue from Nitrofurantoin; and (iii) $1,442 higher revenue from Agripressin. The remaining decrease was primarily due to general competitive market pressures across the Concordia International segment's product portfolio. The Concordia North America segment revenue increase of $2,772 is primarily due to $3,737 higher revenue from the Plaquenil® authorized generic product. Donnatal® continues to experience competitive pressure from a non-FDA approved product being distributed by a third party and most recently the launch of an additional competitive product in the second quarter of 2017. Refer to the "Litigation and Arbitration" section of this MD&A.
Gross profit and adjusted gross profit in the first quarter of 2018 increased by $906 compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue in the first quarter of 2018 was 66% compared with the fourth quarter of 2017 of 67%. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to the shift in product mix within the Concordia North America segment as gross profit as a percentage of revenue within the Concordia International segment was flat.
Net loss from continuing operations during the first quarter of 2018 compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, decreased by $376,079. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the fourth quarter of 2017 including impairment charges totaling $207,662, and $143,969 higher accretion expenses as a result of accelerating the accretion of deferred financing costs.

Concordia Management's Discussion and Analysis
Page 14



Adjusted EBITDA in the first quarter of 2018 of $72,024 consisted of $51,748 related to Concordia International, $24,273 related to Concordia North America, offset by $3,997 related to Corporate expenses. This is compared with fourth quarter 2017 Adjusted EBITDA of $70,778, which consisted of $56,116 related to Concordia International, $19,880 related to North America, offset by $5,218 related to Corporate expenses. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2018 was $1,246 higher than the fourth quarter of 2017. The net increase of total adjusted EBITDA of $1,246 is primarily due to favourable foreign exchange rate movements of $2,680 and $1,221 lower Corporate expenses, partially offset by net product declines as described above.

Working capital
Concordia defines working capital as total current assets less accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income taxes payable and provisions. The $38,011 decrease in working capital from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018 is primarily due to the following factors:
Inventory decreased by $6,236 primarily due to $2,390 and $3,846 lower inventory on hand within the Concordia International and Concordia North America segments, respectively. These decreases are primarily due to product sales during the first quarter of 2018;
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $53,993. The increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities is primarily due to an increase in interest payable on the Company's debt of $52,563. Interest payments on Unsecured Debt have not been paid as a result of the CBCA Proceedings resulting in a stay of interest and principal payments on these facilities; and
Provisions decreased by $1,875. The decrease is primarily due to lower expected returns within the Concordia North America segment.

Offset primarily by:
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $16,804 primarily due to cash from operating activities of $50,558, primarily offset by debt amortization and interest payments of $38,859, as further discussed in the "Liquidity and Capital Realignment" section of this MD&A; and
Accounts receivable increased by $2,054. Concordia International segment accounts receivable increased by $3,173 primarily as a result of foreign exchange rate movements. Concordia North America accounts receivable decreased by $1,119 primarily due to the timing of receipts from customers.
Long-lived assets
Long-lived assets consist of fixed assets, intangible assets and goodwill. The $12,198 decrease in long-lived assets from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018 is primarily due to intangible asset amortization recorded during the first quarter of 2018 of $65,607, partially offset by a $52,015 increase due to foreign exchange translation. This increase from foreign exchange translation is a result of the movement in the GBP/USD period end exchange rates from 1.3494 as at December 31, 2017 to 1.4037 as at March 31, 2018.
Other current liabilities
Other current liabilities consist of the current portion of long-term debt, purchase consideration payable and cross currency swap liability. The $20,090 increase from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018 is primarily due to the increase in the current portion of long-term debt of $14,939 as a result of $26,221 foreign exchange rate movement from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, partially offset by $11,282 of principal repayments.
Long term liabilities
Long-term obligations consist of purchase consideration payable, other liabilities and deferred income tax liabilities. The $3,247 decrease in long term liabilities from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018 is primarily due to the decrease in deferred tax liabilities of $1,491 due to the reversal of certain deferred tax liabilities in respect of assets recorded as a result of purchase price accounting and changes to the carrying value of certain assets due to their impairment and/or changes in the applicable foreign exchange rate.

Shareholders’ deficit
Shareholders’ deficit increased by $66,543 from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018. The increase is primarily related to:
A net loss for the first quarter of 2018 of $55,694; and
A net foreign exchange impact of $12,121 from the translation of the Concordia International segment, the Currency Swaps and the GBP denominated term loan.

Offset primarily by:
A $1,272 net change in equity for share based compensation expense, issuance of options, vesting of RSUs and related reversal of deferred income tax assets.

9    Liquidity and Capital Realignment
Realignment of Capital Structure and Going Concern
During the 2017 fiscal year, the Company announced as part of its long-term strategy an objective to realign its capital structure, which includes an intention to significantly reduce the Company’s existing secured and unsecured debt obligations. On October 20, 2017, as part of the Company’s efforts to realign its capital structure, the Company and one of its wholly-owned direct subsidiaries commenced a court proceeding under the CBCA. The CBCA is a Canadian corporate statute that includes provisions that allow Canadian corporations to restructure certain debt obligations, and is not a bankruptcy or insolvency statute. The preliminary interim order issued by the Court provides a stay of proceedings, which continues to be effective, against any third party that is party to, or a beneficiary of, any loan, note, commitment, contract or other agreement with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including the Company's debtholders, from exercising any rights or remedy or any proceeding, including, without limitation, terminating, demanding, accelerating, setting-off, amending, declaring in default or taking any other action under or in connection with any loan, note, commitment, contract, or other agreement of the Company and its subsidiaries on the terms set out in the Court order.
In connection with the Company's efforts to realign its capital structure and as contemplated by the CBCA Proceedings, the Company has elected to not make scheduled payments on the following debt obligations: payments under its 7% unsecured senior notes; payments under its 9.5% unsecured senior notes; and payments under its unsecured extended equity bridge facility. During the CBCA Proceedings, the Company has been, and intends to, continue to make scheduled ordinary course interest and principal payments under its secured debt facilities, as applicable. The commencement of the CBCA Proceedings and non-payment of the scheduled payments noted above resulted in events of default under the Company's credit facilities and the Company's Currency Swaps, and therefore the outstanding debt and cross currency swap liabilities have been presented as current liabilities. Refer to the "Lending Arrangements and Debt" section of this MD&A for additional details associated with events of default applicable under certain of the Company's credit facilities and Currency Swaps.
Proposed Recapitalization Transaction
On May 2, 2018, the Company announced a proposed Recapitalization Transaction to realign its capital structure. The details of the Recapitalization Transaction are described within the "Recent Events" section of this MD&A, and in the Company's term sheet dated as of May 1, 2018, the support agreement between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company and certain holders of the Company’s secured debt and unsecured debt dated as of May 1, 2018, and the subscription agreement between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, and certain holders of the Company’s secured debt and unsecured debt dated as of May 1, 2018. A management information circular outlining all key terms of the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be mailed to relevant stakeholders prior to the scheduled June 19, 2018 Meetings where secured and unsecured debtholders and shareholders will vote on the approval of, among other things, the Company's CBCA Plan. The Company believes the Recapitalization Transaction, once completed, will realign the Company's capital structure, and significantly reduce the Company's outstanding debt.
Upon completion of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company expects to have New Secured Debt of approximately $1.4 billion and cash on hand in excess of $200 million, after payment of related advisor fees and recapitalization transaction costs.
Going Concern
Future liquidity and operations of the Company are dependent on the ability of the Company to restructure its debt obligations and to generate sufficient operating cash flows to fund its on-going operations. If the Company does not complete the realignment of its capital structure through the CBCA Plan described in the "Recent Events" section of this MD&A, it will be necessary to pursue other restructuring strategies, which may include, among other alternatives, proceedings under the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act and / or a filing under the United States Bankruptcy Code. The Company may not be able to restructure and reduce its debt obligations and this results in a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company had approximately $344 million of cash on hand as of March 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $327 million) and believes it has sufficient liquidity in the near term to operate its business and meet its ordinary course financial commitments while it works toward implementing the Recapitalization Transaction.

(65,628
)
The Company's business continues to generate cash flow from operating activities. Cash flows from operations represent net income adjusted for changes in working capital, non-cash items and excludes interest paid as this is recorded within cash used in financing activities.
Cash flow from operating activities for the first quarter of 2018 decreased by $35,646 compared to the corresponding period in 2017. The decrease is primarily due to $14,309 lower gross profit from both segments, $10,278 higher acquisition related, restructuring and other costs primarily as a result of the Company's capital realignment initiative and $13,546 lower favourable working capital movements.
Cash flow used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2018 is comprised of: $27,577 of contractual interest payments; and $11,282 of scheduled long-term debt principal repayments.
Cash and Capital Management
The purpose of cash and capital management is to ensure that there is sufficient cash to meet all the financial commitments and obligations of the Company as they come due. Since inception, the Company has financed its cash requirements primarily through the issuances of securities, short-term borrowings, long-term debt as well as cash flows generated from operations.
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company may encounter difficulty meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk through the management of its capital structure.
As described above and in the "Recent Events" section of this MD&A, the Company's capital management plan was to enter into the CBCA Proceedings to realign its capital structure. During this period, the Company has been, and intends to, continue to make scheduled ordinary course interest and principal payments under its Secured Debt facilities, as applicable. The Company has not made scheduled payments under its Unsecured Debt facilities As a result of certain events associated with the CBCA Proceedings, the Company may not have the ability to transfer certain funds, which could have an impact on the Company's liquidity.
In managing the Company’s capital, Management estimates future cash requirements by preparing annual financial forecasts for review and approval by the Board. The financial forecasts are reviewed and updated periodically and establish approved activities for the year and estimates the costs associated with those activities. Forecast to actual variances are prepared and reviewed by Management and are presented regularly to the Board.

Long-Term Debt


As at March 31, 2018, approximately 82% of total long term debt was denominated in USD (December 31, 2017 - 82%) and 18% denominated in GBP (December 31, 2017 - 18%).
The commencement of the CBCA Proceedings on October 20, 2017 resulted in an event of default under the Credit Agreement, indentures governing the Company's 9% senior secured notes and 9.5% unsecured notes and the Currency Swaps, which defaults are subject to the stay of proceedings granted by the Court. As a result of the foregoing events of default, a cross default was triggered under the indenture governing the 7% unsecured senior notes and the unsecured extended equity bridge facility, however any demand for payment of this debt has been stayed by the preliminary interim order granted by the Court in the CBCA Proceedings. As a result of these events all debt arrangements are presented as current liabilities. On October 20, 2017, the Company was notified by the counterparty to the Currency Swaps that one or more events of default occurred under the swap agreements as a result of the Company obtaining a preliminary interim order from the Court pursuant to the arrangement provisions of the CBCA. As a result of the foregoing, the counterparty to the Currency Swaps designated October 23, 2017 as the early termination date with respect to all transactions under the Currency Swaps. As part of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company has agreed to the amount of the Currency Swaps liability ($114,431), which amount will be addressed in the same manner as the Secured Debt under the Recapitalization Transaction.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made $11,282 of principal repayments and paid $27,577 of cash interest expense on its secured debt facilities, including the Currency Swaps, as applicable.
Details of the Company's lending arrangements are further disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the first quarter of 2018.

13    Non-IFRS Financial Measures
This MD&A makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures. These non-IFRS measures are not recognized measures under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. When used, these measures are defined in such terms as to allow the reconciliation to the closest IFRS measure. These measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of the Company’s results of operations from Management’s perspective. Accordingly, they should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute to the Company’s financial information reported under IFRS. Management uses non-IFRS measures such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS to provide investors with supplemental information of the Company’s operating performance and thus highlight trends in the Company’s core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS financial measures. Securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures in the evaluation of issuers. Management also uses non-IFRS measures in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, prepare annual operating budgets, and to assess its ability to meet future debt service requirements, in making capital expenditures, and to consider the business's working capital requirements.
The definition and reconciliation of Adjusted Gross Profit, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS used and presented by the Company to the most directly comparable IFRS measures follows below.
Adjusted Gross Profit
Adjusted Gross Profit is defined as gross profit adjusted for non-cash fair value increases to the cost of acquired inventory from a business combination. Under IFRS, acquired inventory is required to be written-up to fair value at the date of acquisition. As this inventory is sold the fair value adjustment represents a non-cash cost of sale amount that has been excluded in adjusted gross profit in order to normalize gross profit for this non-cash component.

EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as net income / loss adjusted for interest and accretion expense, interest income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Management uses EBITDA to assess the Company’s operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain charges including costs associated with acquisitions, restructuring initiatives, and other costs (which includes onerous contract costs and direct costs associated with contractual terminations), management retention costs, non-operating gains / losses, integration costs, legal settlements (net of insurance recoveries) and related legal costs, non-cash items such as unrealized gains / losses on derivative instruments, share based compensation, fair value changes including purchase consideration and derivative financial instruments, asset impairments, fair value increases to inventory arising from purchased inventory from a business combination, gains / losses from the sale of assets and unrealized gains / losses related to foreign exchange. Management uses Adjusted EBITDA, among other Non-IFRS financial measures, as the key metric in assessing business performance when comparing actual results to budgets and forecasts. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance and cash flow, and provides useful information to investors because it highlights trends in the underlying business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS
Adjusted EPS is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of fully diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted net income is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for certain charges including costs associated with acquisitions, restructuring initiatives, and other costs (which includes onerous contract costs and direct costs associated with contractual terminations), management retention costs, non-operating gains / losses, integration costs, legal settlements (net of insurance recoveries) and related legal costs, non-cash items such as unrealized gains / losses on derivative instruments, share based compensation, fair value changes including purchase consideration and derivative financial instruments, asset impairments, fair value increases to inventory arising from purchased inventory from a business combination, gains / losses from the sale of assets and unrealized gains / losses related to foreign exchange, non-cash accretion expense and the tax impact of the above items. Management believes Adjusted EPS is an important measure of operating performance and cash flow, and provides useful information to investors.

Notes:
(1)
The Company has included in tax adjustments the current and deferred income taxes presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss) to the extent that these relate to adjustments made to net income (loss) from continuing operations. The income taxes presented in the consolidated statements of income (loss), after including the tax adjustments, represents the Company’s estimate of the income taxes in respect of adjusted net income ("Tax on Adjusted Net Income").  Tax on Adjusted Net Income does not represent the Company’s expectation of its current cash income tax obligations as such obligations are further impacted by: (i) the tax impact of certain adjustments made to net income (loss) from continuing operations but which do impact current cash income tax obligations, e.g., the tax impact of adjustments for stock based compensation, depreciation and amortization; and (ii) when such income tax obligations are required to be paid, which is a function of the laws applicable in the jurisdiction to which the payment is due.

14    Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, gains and losses, and disclosures of contingencies. These estimates and assumptions are subject to change based on experience and new information. Critical accounting estimates are those that require management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Critical accounting estimates are also those estimates which, where a different estimate could have been used or where changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material impact on the company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition or financial performance. Critical accounting estimates and judgments are reviewed annually by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
A detailed description of the Company’s critical accounting estimates is provided in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and in the "Critical Accounting Estimates" section of the Company's MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2017, dated March 8, 2018 (the "2017 Annual MD&A").
Change in estimate
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company assessed the use of the straight line amortization method for certain intangible assets in both reportable segments and determined that, based on recent developments and historical patterns of commercial benefit, certain assets should be amortized based on a declining balance model to align with corresponding expected future cash flows.  Specifically, the Company determined that this method of amortization better reflects the pattern in which acquired product rights and manufacturing processes future economic benefits are expected to be realized by the Company.
This change in estimate resulted in an increase in amortization expense of approximately $18 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2018. The impact for the remainder of the year is estimated to be approximately $55 million.
Current and Future Accounting Pronouncements
Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements as at and for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 describes information relating to current and future significant accounting policies applicable to the Company. The Company adopted IFRS 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" and IFRS 9, “Financial Instruments” on January 1, 2018.

15    Contingencies
Royalties
The Company has a commitment to pay royalties on certain products acquired from Shionogi Inc. in May 2013 and certain products acquired from Covis Pharma S.à R.L. on April 21, 2015, at certain prescribed rates. These royalties are payable on a quarterly basis. During the three month period ended March 31, 2018 the royalty expense was $101 (2017 - $408).
Litigation and Arbitration
From time to time, the Company becomes involved in various legal and administrative proceedings, which include product liability, intellectual property, commercial, antitrust, government and regulatory investigations, related private litigation and ordinary course employment-related issues. From time to time, the Company also initiates actions or files counterclaims. The Company could be subject to counterclaims or other suits in response to actions it may initiate. The Company believes that the prosecution of these actions and counterclaims is important to preserve and protect the Company, its reputation and its assets. Certain of these proceedings and actions are described below.
Unless otherwise indicated the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these legal proceedings, nor can it currently estimate the amount of loss, or range of loss, if any, that may result from these proceedings. An adverse outcome in certain of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations, and could cause the market value of its common shares and/or debt securities to decline.
The Company and certain of its former executive officers are the subject of various class action complaints relating to the Company’s August 12, 2016 press release, whereby the Company revised its 2016 guidance.  The complaints allege that the Company issued false and misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that: the Company was experiencing a substantial increase in market competition against its drug Donnatal®, and other products; as a result, Concordia’s financial results would suffer, and Concordia would be forced to suspend its dividend; and as a result Concordia’s statements about its business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. The class action lawsuits have been consolidated into a single case and a motion to dismiss this action was filed by the Company on February 20, 2017. On March 21, 2017, the plaintiffs in this action filed a response to the motion to dismiss, and on April 5, 2017 the Company filed a reply to plaintiffs' response. On July 28, 2017, the United States District Court, Southern District of New York denied the motion to dismiss in part and granted it in part. On February 7, 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification. The Company filed an opposition to the plaintiffs' motion for class certification on March 12, 2018, and the plaintiffs filed a reply in support of class certification on March 28, 2018.
The Company and certain of its former executive officers were also subject to a class action complaint alleging that the Company made false and/or misleading statements, as well as, failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business operations and prospects, in the Company's Registration Statement, Prospectus and Supplemental Prospectus issued in connection with the Company's secondary offering completed on September 30, 2015. Specifically, the claim alleged that the statements were false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company was experiencing a substantial increase in market competition against Donnatal®, and other products; (ii) consequently the Company's financial results would suffer and the Company would be forced to suspend its dividends; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, the defendant's statements about the Company's business operations and prospects were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. On June 27, 2017, the plaintiff in this action voluntarily dismissed the complaint on a without prejudice basis.
The Company and certain of its former executive officers and a former director are subject to a securities class action filed in Quebec, Canada. The amended statement of claim alleges that the Company failed to disclose adverse material facts relating to, and misrepresented, among other things, the Company's business model, growth platforms, proforma revenues and dividend payments in certain disclosures from March 23, 2016 to August 11, 2016. This class action has not yet been certified nor has leave to bring a statutory claim under securities legislation yet been granted. On June 15, 2017, the plaintiff in the action discontinued their claim against the Company's Board of Directors (other than the one former director) and certain of its former executive officers.
On October 19, 2017, a statement of claim was filed in Ontario, Canada against the Company and certain of its former executive officers on behalf of all persons and entities, other than persons resident in Quebec, Canada, which alleges substantially the same claims as the Quebec action described above. This class action has not yet been certified nor has leave to bring a statutory claim under securities legislation yet been granted.
On October 25, 2016, the Company announced that the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) commenced an investigation into various issues in relation to the UK pharmaceutical sector, and that the Concordia International segment was part of the inquiry. The CMA’s investigation includes matters that pre-date Concordia’s ownership of the Concordia International segment and relates to the Company’s pricing of three products. On May 31, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA notified the Company that it was continuing its investigation after an initial stop/go decision. On November 21, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA issued a statement of objections to the Company, and the former owners of the Concordia International segment, Hg Capital and Cinven, in relation to the pricing of one of the three

products, liothyronine, in the United Kingdom between November 2007 and at least July 2017. A statement of objections is a formal statement by the CMA that it considers that a competition infringement may have occurred. On February 15, 2018, the Company announced that the CMA notified the Company that it was closing its investigation related to Fusidic Acid, also one of the three products under investigation. On April 20, 2018, the Company responded in detail to the statement of objections.
On March 3, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA issued a statement of objections to a third party and the Company in relation to the supply of 10mg hydrocortisone tablets in the UK between 2013 and 2016. On May 26, 2017, the Company responded in detail to the statement of objections and on July 20, 2017 the Company attended an oral hearing to present the key points of its response to the CMA decision panel. This investigation includes matters that pre-date the Company’s ownership of the Concordia International segment.
On October 11, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA commenced additional investigations in relation to the UK pharmaceutical sector, and that the Concordia International segment and certain of its products are part of the inquiry. These investigations are at an early information gathering stage and the CMA has confirmed that, at this time, it has not reached a conclusion on whether competition law has been infringed. These investigations include matters that predate the Company's ownership of the Concordia International segment, and involve the following products: Carbimazole, Nitrofurantoin, Prochlorperazine, Dicycloverine, Trazodone and Nefopam.
The Company was subject to a class action proceeding in relation to one of its third party distributors purportedly faxing unsolicited advertisements to market Ulesfia® in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. On April 9, 2017, the court in this action dismissed the Company's motion to dismiss and on June 8, 2017 the court denied the Company's motion for reconsideration. On November 6, 2017, the court issued an order re-evaluating its previous finding of personal jurisdiction, which order required the plaintiffs in this action to make a new submission rebutting the evidence submitted by defendants showing that there is no personal jurisdiction. On December 1, 2017, the court dismissed this claim against the Company for lack of personal jurisdiction.
During the first quarter of 2016, the Company became aware that a third party had notified wholesalers, through listing services, of its intent to distribute and sell in certain US regions a non-FDA approved copy of Donnatal®. On January 6, 2016, the Company commenced a lawsuit against the third party and its principal owner claiming damages from such conduct, and on April 29, 2016 and May 3, 2016 commenced proceedings against two listing services for the continued listing of the products in their database. In May 2016, the Company became aware that this non-FDA approved product was introduced into certain US regions. On October 4, 2016 and November 16, 2016, the Company dismissed its claims against the listing services on a without prejudice basis, respectively. On March 15, 2017, the court ruled on the third party's motion to dismiss the Company's claim, denying such motion in part and granting it in part. On March 29, 2017, the third party filed its answer and counter claim in response to the Company's claim. On August 16, 2017, this third party filed a motion to amend its counterclaim to add factual allegations detailing the scope of the Company's campaign to disparage its products and interfere with its contractual and business relationships. On November 8, 2017, the court granted the Company's motion for leave to file its second amended complaint, permitting the Company to include its direct false advertising claim. The Company continues to pursue this lawsuit vigorously. In a similar lawsuit commenced against Method Pharmaceuticals, LLC ("Method") and its principal owner, the Company received a favorable jury verdict on April 21, 2016 and was awarded damages in the amount of approximately $733. On March 2, 2017, the United States District Court - Western District of Virginia, Charlottesville Division, granted the Company's motion for enhanced damages in part, to amend the judgment against Method and its principal owner to reflect an award of damages in the total amount of approximately $2.2 million. On March 30, 2017, Method filed a motion to reconsider the order on enhanced damages. On April 13, 2017, the Company filed an opposition to Method's motion to reconsider. On July 19, 2017, the court denied Method's motion to reconsider and further awarded the Company an additional $15 in costs. On August 30, 2017, Method filed a notice of appearance with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit to appeal the enhanced damages award. On February 1, 2018, Method and its principal owner and the Company settled the enhanced damages award.
During the second quarter of 2017, the Company became aware that an additional third party had launched a competitor product to Donnatal®. The Company continues to assess its legal rights against such third party.
On September 16, 2016, the Company announced the introduction of a bill into the U.K. House of Commons to amend and extend existing provisions of the National Health Service Act 2006 to enable the Secretary of State to help manage the cost of health service medicines. On April 27 2017, the U.K. government accorded Royal Assent to the Act. The Act introduces provisions in connection with controlling the cost of health service medicines and other medical supplies. The Act also introduces provisions in connection with the provision of pricing and other information by manufacturers, distributors and suppliers of those medicines and medical supplies. The Company continues to monitor the implementation of the Act. While the effects of the Act are unknown at this time, the Act could impose certain risks and uncertainties on the Company's operations and cash flows.

17    Control Environment
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate Internal Control over Financial Reporting and disclosure controls and procedures as defined in the 2017 Annual MD&A.
Based on their evaluation as at March 31, 2018, Management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that are filed or submitted to Canadian and U.S. securities authorities is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Canadian and U.S. securities laws. In addition, as at March 31, 2018, there were no changes in the internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As a result, Management's conclusion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and its disclosure controls and procedures that were operating effectively as at December 31, 2017 has not changed.

Management will continue to periodically evaluate the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, and will make any modifications from time to time as deemed necessary. Based on their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and even those controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

the ability of the Company to stabilize its business;
the ability of the Company to implement and successfully achieve its business priorities in order to stabilize the Company's business and financial condition;
the impact of the downgrade of the Company's corporate and debt ratings;
the ability of the Company to execute its long-term growth strategy and/or not being delayed in executing such strategy;

the ability of the Company to maintain and enforce the protection afforded by any patents or other intellectual property rights;
the ability of the Company to conduct operations in a safe, efficient and effective manner;
the results of continuing and future safety and efficacy studies by industry and government agencies related to the Company’s products;
the ability of the Company to retain members of the senior management team, including but not limited to, the officers of the Company;
the ability of the Company to successfully market its products and services;
clinical commissioning groups and/or other healthcare groups in the markets in which the Company sells its products, including the United Kingdom and United States, not making adverse prescribing recommendations against the Company's products;
the impact of the United Kingdom's referendum through which voters supported a withdrawal from the European Union. A significant portion of the Company’s business is in the United Kingdom pharmaceutical industry and a significant portion of the Company's contract manufacturers are in mainland Europe.  The United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union could result in a number of developments, including, without limitation, regulatory changes in the pharmaceutical industry, cross-border tariff and cost structure changes or loss of access to European Union global trade markets.  Therefore, the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union may result in a period of uncertainty while the terms of such exit are being negotiated;
a significant number of the Company’s products are vulnerable to price competition driven by pharmaceutical parallel trade ("PPT"). PPT refers to pharmaceutical products that are put on the market in one country by the owner of the intellectual property rights to such products, or with the consent of the owner, that are subsequently imported into another country by a third party for secondary sale without the consent or authorization of the intellectual property right owner. Many of the Company’s products are distributed in the European Union, where PPT is common and, as a result, some of the Company’s products may be subject to price competition caused by PPT, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, PPT may restrict the Company’s ability to ensure that patients receive products designed for their local preferences and needs and possibly to the satisfaction of applicable governmental regulations in the jurisdiction of import. Moreover, as a result of PPT, packaging, manuals and instructions may be provided in a foreign language and may lack domestic telephone numbers and other important contact information for patient support, which may result in a diminished experience for the patient and diminished product reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations;
the impact of the recently enacted UK Health Service Medical Supplies (Costs) Act on the Company's business, including, without limitation, on the pricing of the Company's products in the United Kingdom; and
the Company’s operating results, financial condition and financial forecasts may fluctuate from period to period for a number of reasons, including as a result of events or occurrences disclosed in the Company’s public filings (including, without limitation, under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F dated March 8, 2018).  As a result, the Company believes that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results from operations or financial forecasts, or any other similar period-to-period comparisons, should not be construed as reliable indicators of the Company’s future performance. The events or occurrences described in the Company’s public filings, including, without limitation, under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 20-F dated March 8, 2018, may cause the Company’s operating results and/or financial forecasts to fluctuate and such events or occurrences could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. In any period, the Company’s results may be below the expectations of market analysts and investors, which could cause the trading price of the Company’s securities to decline.

2. Realignment of Capital Structure and Going Concern

In 2017, the Company announced as part of its long-term strategy an objective to realign its capital structure, which includes an intention to significantly reduce the Company’s existing secured and unsecured debt obligations. On October 20, 2017, as part of the Company’s efforts to realign its capital structure, the Company and one of its wholly-owned direct subsidiaries commenced a court proceeding (the “CBCA Proceedings”) under the Canada Business Corporation Act ("CBCA"). The CBCA is a Canadian corporate statute that includes provisions that allow Canadian corporations to restructure certain debt obligations, and is not a bankruptcy or insolvency statute. The preliminary interim order issued by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (the "Court") provides a stay of proceedings, which continues to be effective, against any third party that is party to, or a beneficiary of, any loan, note, commitment, contract or other agreement with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, including the Company's debtholders, from exercising any rights or remedy or any proceeding, including, without limitation, terminating, demanding, accelerating, setting-off, amending, declaring in default or taking any other action under or in connection with any loan, note, commitment, contract, or other agreement of the Company and its subsidiaries on the terms set out in the Court order.
In connection with the Company's efforts to realign its capital structure and as contemplated by the CBCA Proceedings, the Company has elected to not make scheduled payments on the following debt obligations: payments under its 7% unsecured senior notes (Note 13 (d)); payments under its 9.5% unsecured senior notes (Note 13 (c)); and payments under its unsecured extended equity bridge facility (Note 13 (b)). During the CBCA Proceedings, the Company has been, and intends to, continue to make scheduled ordinary course interest and principal payments under its secured debt facilities (Note 13 (a) and (e)), as applicable. The commencement of the CBCA Proceedings and non-payment of the scheduled payments noted above resulted in events of default under the Company's credit facilities and the Company's cross currency swap agreements ("Currency Swaps"), and therefore the outstanding debt and Cross Currency Swap Liability (as defined below) have been presented as current liabilities. Refer to Notes 13 and 12 for additional details associated with events of default applicable under certain of the Company's credit facilities and Currency Swaps, respectively.
Proposed Recapitalization Transaction

On May 2, 2018, the Company announced a proposed transaction to realign its capital structure (the “Recapitalization Transaction”). The details of the Recapitalization Transaction are further described in the subsequent events note (refer to Note 24), and in the Company's term sheet dated as of May 1, 2018, the support agreement between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, and certain holders of the Company’s secured debt and unsecured debt dated as of May 1, 2018 (the "Support Agreement") and the subscription agreement between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company, and certain holders of the Company’s secured debt and unsecured debt dated as of May 1, 2018 (the "Subscription Agreement").
A management information circular outlining all the key terms of the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be mailed to relevant stakeholders prior to the scheduled June 19, 2018 meeting date where secured and unsecured debtholders and shareholders will vote on the approval of, among other things, the Company's CBCA Plan (as defined in Note 24). The Company believes the Recapitalization Transaction, once completed, will realign the Company's capital structure, and significantly reduce the Company's outstanding debt.
Upon completion of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company expects to have New Secured Debt (as defined in Note 24) of approximately $1.4 billion and cash on hand in excess of $200 million, after payment of related advisor fees and recapitalization transaction costs.
Going Concern
Future liquidity and operations of the Company are dependent on the ability of the Company to restructure its debt obligations and to generate sufficient operating cash flows to fund its on-going operations. If the Company does not complete the realignment of its capital structure through the CBCA Plan described above and in Note 24, it will be necessary to pursue other restructuring strategies, which may include, among other alternatives, proceedings under the Companies Creditors Arrangement Act and / or a filing under the United States Bankruptcy

Code. The Company may not be able to restructure and reduce its debt obligations and this results in a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which asserts the Company has the ability in the near term to continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in a planned manner giving consideration to the above and expected possible outcomes. Conversely, if the going concern assumption is not appropriate, adjustments to the carrying amounts of the Company's assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and balance sheet classifications may be necessary, and these adjustments could be material.
The Company had approximately $344 million of cash on hand as of March 31, 2018 (December 31, 2017 - $327 million) and believes it has sufficient liquidity in the near term to operate its business and meet its ordinary course financial commitments while it works toward implementing the Recapitalization Transaction.
3. Significant Accounting Policies

(a)
Basis of Presentation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements including IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair values. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with Concordia's annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting policies as set out in the Company's annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2017, prepared in accordance with IFRS, except for the adoption of new and amended accounting standards as set out below in (d). The presentation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements is consistent with the presentation of the annual consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 4 for a discussion of the change in estimate relating to the amortization of certain intangible assets.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis and have been presented in U.S. dollars, which is also the Company’s functional currency.

(b)
Comparative Financial Information

Certain prior period balances have been re-classified to conform with the current period financial statement presentation.

(c)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") has not issued any significant new accounting standards that impact the Company that are not already described in the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.

(i)
Recent accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

The following pronouncements that may be significant to the Company were issued by the IASB or the IFRS Interpretations Committee. Those pronouncements that are not applicable or do not have a significant impact to the Company have been excluded from the summary below.


[10]

Concordia International Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



The following pronouncements have not yet been adopted by the Company and are being evaluated to determine the resultant impact, as summarized below:

Leases

IFRS 16, "Leases" ("IFRS 16"), sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement and disclosure of leases. IFRS 16 provides revised guidance on identifying a lease and for separating lease and non-lease components of a contract. IFRS 16 introduces a single accounting model for all lessees and requires a lessee to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases with terms of more than 12-months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. Under IFRS 16, lessor accounting for operating and finance leases will remain substantially unchanged. IFRS 16 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted for entities that apply IFRS 15. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements, however it does not expect the standard to have a significant impact due to the limited volume and magnitude of leases entered into by the Company.

Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments

On June 7, 2017, the IASB issued IFRIC 23, Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments ("IFRIC 23"). IFRIC 23 clarifies the application of recognition and measurement requirements in IAS 12, Income Taxes, when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The IFRIC 23 interpretation specifically addresses whether an entity considers uncertain tax treatments separately; the assumptions an entity makes about the examination of tax treatments by taxation authorities; how an entity determines taxable profit (tax loss), tax bases, unused tax losses, unused tax credits and tax rates; and how an entity considers changes in facts and circumstances. IFRIC 23 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019, with earlier application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

(ii)
Recent accounting pronouncements adopted

Revenue Recognition

IFRS 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("IFRS 15"), provides a comprehensive five-step revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers. IFRS 15 replaced IAS 18, "Revenue" ("IAS 18") which covered contracts for goods and services and IAS 11 which covered construction contracts. The IFRS 15 revenue recognition model requires management to exercise significant judgment and make estimates that affect revenue recognition. The new standard is based on the principle that revenue is recognized when control of a good or service transfers to a customer. The standard was effective January 1, 2018 and has been adopted by the Company using the modified retrospective approach.


[11]

Concordia International Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



Management has assessed the effects of applying the new standard on the Company's financial statements and has identified the following areas that were affected:

Accounting for variable consideration - IFRS 15 requires that the Company recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied to the extent there will not be a significant reversal in the future when the uncertainty surrounding any components of variable consideration is subsequently resolved. This had the potential to impact revenue recognition associated with the chargebacks, returns, rebates, prompt pay and other price adjustments components of contracts with the Company's customers. The Company recognizes variable consideration at the inception of the revenue recognition process, which is consistent with the Company's accounting policy under IAS 18, and therefore no impact was noted.
Accounting for sales to distributors - IFRS 15 requires that the Company recognize revenue upon the transfer of control to the customer, which requires the Company to apply judgment based on the indicators provided in the standard, that had the potential to impact the timing of revenue recognition. Under certain of the Company's arrangements associated with sales to distributors, revenue is not recognized until the product is sold to the end customer, either because inventory is on consignment at the distributor, or because the final selling price is not determinable until the product is sold to the end customer. The Company has determined that the timing of revenue recognition for sales to distributors is not impacted on adoption of IFRS 15.

Financial Instruments

The final version of IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments" ("IFRS 9"), was issued by the IASB in July 2014 and replaced IAS 39, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". IFRS 9 introduces a model for classification and measurement, a single, forward-looking “expected loss” impairment model and a substantially reformed approach to hedge accounting. The new single, principle-based approach for determining the classification of financial assets is driven by cash flow characteristics and the business model in which an asset is held. The new model also results in a single impairment model being applied to all financial instruments, which will require more timely recognition of expected credit losses. It also includes changes in respect of own credit risk in measuring liabilities elected to be measured at fair value, so that gains caused by the deterioration of an entity’s own credit risk on such liabilities are no longer recognized in profit or loss. IFRS 9 was effective as at January 1, 2018.

The Company has reviewed its financial assets and financial liabilities with respect to new guidance under IFRS 9. Accordingly, the Company has determined the new guidance does not affect the classification and measurement of its financial assets. Additionally, the Company has determined that there is no impact on the accounting for its financial liabilities, as the new requirements only affect the accounting for financial liabilities that are designated at fair value through profit or loss and which are subject to fair value changes as a result of the entity's own credit risk.

The new impairment model for financial assets requires the recognition of impairment provisions based on expected credit losses rather than only incurred credit losses as is the case under IAS 39. It applies to financial assets classified at amortised cost, debt instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, contract assets under IFRS 15, lease receivables, loan commitments and certain financial guarantee contracts. The Company has determined that there is not a significant increase in the loss allowance for accounts receivable as a result of adopting IFRS 9.

The Company has adopted the standard on the effective date of January 1, 2018. The standard has been implemented following the specific transitional requirements listed in the standard related to classification and measurement, impairments and hedge accounting. This results in prospective application.

Financial Instruments Disclosures

IFRS 7, "Financial Instruments: Disclosures" ("IFRS 7"), has been amended by the IASB to require additional disclosures on transition from IAS 39 to IFRS 9. The amendment to IFRS 7 is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The Company has reflected the additional disclosures in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2018.

(d)
Changes in Accounting Policies

A number of new or amended accounting standards became applicable for the current reporting period and the Company had to change its accounting policies as a result of adopting the following standards:

IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments"
IFRS 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"

The new accounting policies as a result of adoption of IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 are described below. The new accounting policies have been applied from January 1, 2018, where they are different to those applied in prior periods. IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 were adopted without restating comparative information.

(i)
Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recorded as net revenue and is recognized in the consolidated statement of loss when a contractual promise to a customer (performance obligation) has been fulfilled by transferring control over the promised goods to the customer, generally at the point in time of shipment to or receipt of the products by the customer. The amount of revenue to be recognized is based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for its goods. If a contract contains more than one performance obligation, the consideration is allocated based on the standalone selling price of each performance obligation.

The consideration the Company receives in exchange for its goods may be fixed or variable. Variable consideration is only recognized to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal will not occur when the uncertainty surrounding any components of variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The most common and significant elements of variable consideration include chargebacks, returns, rebates, prompt pay and other price adjustments. Refer to Note 4 for further details relating to these elements of variable consideration.

Revenue represents the amounts receivable after providing for the elements of variable consideration, including the deduction of discounts, allowances given, provisions for chargebacks, other price adjustments and accruals for estimated future rebates and returns. Provisions for revenue deductions are adjusted to actual amount as discounts, allowances, chargebacks, price adjustments, rebates and returns are processed. The provision represents estimates of the related obligations, requiring the use of judgment when estimating the effect of these sales deductions.

The Company operates in a number of different geographical segments, with different markets. Further detail by segment related to revenue recognition is described below:

Concordia North America segment

Revenue within the Concordia North America segment is primarily derived from two customer groups, those being wholesalers and Authorized Generic Partners (“AG Partners”). Revenue is recognized at the time of sale to the wholesaler and AG Partners as this is the point of transferring control over the promised goods to the customer, based on the following; 1) the wholesalers and AG Partners are responsible for setting their sales price to the final customer and collecting on their receivables; 2) the

[13]

Concordia International Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



Company can reliably measure the amount of revenue to be recognized (this includes the impact of gross to net adjustments, including expected returns, wholesaler and retail inventory levels, prescription data, current market trends, competitor activity and historical experience); 3) the wholesalers and AG Partners are responsible for managing their customers; and 4) costs associated with the sale have been incurred at the time the product is sold to the wholesaler and the AG Partner. Revenue related to Photofrin® is concentrated primarily within the United States and operates through distributors. The point of revenue recognition is at the time the distributors receive the product. Revenue is recognized at this time as the distributor has obtained control over the promised goods since they have no right of return, except for expired product (at which point they are entitled only to a replacement product), and full risk of ownership of the product has been transferred.

The Company also earns revenue from licensing and profit-sharing arrangements. Under these arrangements revenue is recognized as earned in accordance with the substance of the relevant agreement. Arrangements determined on a time basis are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period of the agreement. Arrangements that are based on production, sales and other measures are recognized at a point in time once the performance obligations are satisfied by reference to the underlying arrangement.

Royalty income is recognized over a period of time as the performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with royalty agreements.

Concordia International segment

The Concordia International segment is similar to the Concordia North America segment, as revenue is recognized at the time of sale to the wholesalers, hospitals and pharmacies, as this is the point of transferring control over the promised goods to the customer. The Concordia International segment is not subject to significant levels of gross to net adjustments. Revenue is recognized on either shipment or receipt by the customer depending on the contractual terms of the sales agreement.

(ii)
Trade Receivables

Trade receivables are initially recognized at their invoiced amounts. Provisions for doubtful trade receivables, recorded as allowance for doubtful accounts, are established using an expected credit loss model. The Company applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables. These provisions represent the difference between the trade receivables' carrying amount in the consolidated balance sheet and the estimated net collectible amount. Charges for doubtful trade receivables are recorded as bad debt expense within selling and marketing expenses in the consolidated statement of loss.
4. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the group policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Change in estimate
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company assessed the use of the straight line amortization method for certain intangible assets within the Concordia International and Concordia North America segments and determined

[14]

Concordia International Corp.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



that, based on recent developments and historical patterns of commercial benefit, certain assets should be amortized based on a declining balance model to align with corresponding expected future cash flows.  Specifically, the Company determined that this method of amortization better reflects the pattern in which acquired product rights and manufacturing processes future economic benefits are expected to be realized by the Company. Products rights and manufacturing process assets are now predominantly amortized using the declining balance model.
This change in estimate resulted in an increase in amortization expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 of approximately $18 million. The impact for the remainder of the year is estimated to be approximately $55 million.

The Company applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables.

from the balance sheet date. Invoices received for such charges and estimates are shown in the accounts payable when received. The provision is for the uninvoiced portion of the charges and estimates.
11. Income Taxes

There have been no material changes to tax matters in connection with reporting periods subsequent to the filing of the Company's consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. Refer to Note 12 in the Company’s consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 for a full description of the Company’s tax matters.

The Company is subject to income tax in numerous jurisdictions with varying tax rates. During the current period ended there was no material change to the statutory tax rates in the taxing jurisdictions where the majority of the Company’s income for tax purposes was earned or where its temporary differences or losses are expected to be realized or settled.

Although tax rates may not have changed materially, the impact of commercial decisions and market forces result in changes to the distribution of income for tax purposes amongst taxing jurisdictions that may result in a change of the tax rate applicable to such item of income or temporary difference.

The Company continues to believe the amount of unrealized tax benefits appropriately reflects the uncertainty of items that are or may in the future be under discussion, audit, dispute or appeal with a tax authority or which otherwise result in uncertainty in the determination of income for tax purposes. If appropriate, an unrealized tax benefit will be realized in the reporting period in which the Company determines that realization is not in doubt. Where the final determined outcome is different from the Company’s estimate, such difference will impact the Company’s income taxes in the reporting period during which such determination is made.
12. Cross Currency Swap Liability

The Company entered into the Currency Swaps as economic hedges of certain cash flows from its Concordia International segment denominated in Great British Pounds ("GBP") and long-term debt repayments denominated mainly in United States Dollars ("USD"). The Company determines for each derivative contract entered into whether hedge accounting will be applied at inception, which is based on the facts and circumstances of each contract.
Payments and contractual obligations under the Currency Swaps were with the same counterparty, however are settled on a gross basis. Therefore, the fair value of the pay and receive portions along with interest payable and receivable have been presented on a gross basis within the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss and balance sheet.
On October 20, 2017, the Company was notified by the counterparty to the Currency Swaps that one or more events of default occurred under the Currency Swaps as a result of the Company obtaining a preliminary interim order from the Court pursuant to the arrangement provisions of the CBCA. As a result of the foregoing, the counterparty to the Currency Swaps designated October 23, 2017 as the early termination date with respect to all transactions under the Currency Swaps. The amount due on the date of termination on the Currency Swaps as asserted by the counterparty was $114,431 (the "Cross Currency Swap Liability"). Any demand for payment has been stayed by the preliminary interim order granted by the Court in the CBCA Proceedings. On May 2, 2018, in connection with the announcement of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company agreed to the amount of the Cross Currency Swap Liability. The Cross Currency Swap Liability bears interest at a rate equal to the rate of interest due on the USD Term Loan (as defined below) and is payable with the same frequency and on the same date as such payments are made on the USD Term Loan, pursuant to the Concordia International Credit Agreement, subject to the terms of the termination agreement between the Company and the counterparty to the Currency Swaps. The Company has and continues to pay the foregoing interest associated with the Cross Currency Swap Liability pursuant to such termination agreement. The counterparty to the Cross Currency Swap Liability has entered into the Support Agreement with the Company in connection with the Recapitalization

(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



Transaction, and pursuant to the Support Agreement will be entitled to the same treatment as the Company's Secured Debt as noted in Note 24.
During the three month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company incurred and recorded interest expense of $1,672 (2017 - $nil) related to the outstanding Cross Currency Swap Liability.

Unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss

Unrealized foreign exchange gain for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $41,006 (2017 - $9,665). The primary component of the unrealized foreign exchange (gain) loss is the recognition of accumulated unrealized foreign exchange gains on certain inter-company loans associated with the Company's investment in the Concordia International segment. Prior to entering into the Currency Swaps, foreign exchange translation gains and losses on these inter-company loans were not included in the statement of loss given the loans formed part of the permanent investment in those subsidiaries. In entering into the Currency Swaps, certain inter-company loans became designated as hedged items, and subject to on-going repayment. Accordingly, the inter-company loans were no longer considered to be permanent investments in the related subsidiaries and changes in foreign exchange result in unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statement of loss. All such loans are eliminated on consolidation.

The commencement of the CBCA Proceedings during the fourth quarter of 2017 resulted in an event of default under the Concordia International Credit Agreement which includes the Term Loan (as defined below) facilities, the indentures governing the Company's 9% senior secured notes and 9.5% unsecured senior notes and the Currency Swaps. As a result of the foregoing events of default, a cross default was triggered under the indenture governing the 7% unsecured senior notes and the unsecured extended equity bridge facility, however any demand for payment of this debt has been stayed by the preliminary interim order granted by the Court in the CBCA Proceedings. The Company accelerated the accretion of the deferred financing fees associated with all of the Company's lending arrangements during the fourth quarter of 2017 and therefore there is no accretion expense related to deferred financing fees recorded during the first quarter of 2018.

During the CBCA Proceedings the Company has been and intends to continue to make scheduled, ordinary course interest and principal payments under its secured debt facilities, described in (a) and (e) below, and the Currency Swaps, as applicable. Conversely, during the CBCA Proceedings, the Company has not made scheduled payments on its unsecured debt facilities, described in (b), (c) and (d) below. Refer to Note 2 for a discussion on the stay of proceedings applicable to the Company's debt agreements.

(a)
On October 21, 2015 (the "Closing Date") the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding shares of Amdipharm Mercury Limited (the "Concordia International Acquisition") from Cinven, a European private equity firm, and certain other sellers. To

[18]

Concordia International Corp.

(Stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, except per share amounts and where otherwise stated)



finance the Concordia International Acquisition, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Concordia International Credit Agreement") on October 21, 2015 pursuant to which a syndicate of lenders made available secured term loans in the aggregate amounts of $1.1 billion in one tranche (the "USD Term Loan") and £500 million in a separate tranche (the "GBP Term Loan", and together with the USD Term Loan, the "Term Loans"). All obligations of the Company under the Term Loans are guaranteed by all current and future material subsidiaries of the Company and include security of first priority interests in the assets of the Company and its material subsidiaries. The Term Loans contain a maturity date of October 21, 2021, have variable interest rates and require quarterly principal repayments. During the three month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company made principal payments of $6,875 and £3,125 on the USD Term Loan and GBP Term Loan, respectively. The Term Loans may require certain principal repayments calculated by reference to the Company’s excess cash flow as defined in the Concordia International Credit Agreement, calculated annually in respect of the prior year. No payments calculated by reference to the Company's excess cash flow were required to be made in 2018 with respect to 2017. In addition, any payments that would be due as a result of the excess cash flow calculation would be stayed by the CBCA preliminary interim order. Interest rates on the Term Loans are calculated based on LIBOR plus applicable margins, with a LIBOR floor of 1%. Interest expense on the Term Loans for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $34,273 (2017 - $23,489). Commencing in 2017 the quarterly principal repayments on the Term Loans increased from a rate of 0.25% to 0.625%, and in 2019 increase to 1.25%.

(b)
On the Closing Date a syndicate of lenders also provided the Company with a senior unsecured equity bridge term loan facility of $135 million (the "Extended Bridge Loan") and a senior unsecured equity bridge term loan facility of $45 million, the latter of which was settled during the fourth quarter of 2017. All obligations of the Company under the Extended Bridge Loan, subject to certain customary exceptions, are guaranteed by all material subsidiaries of the Company. The Extended Bridge Loan has a seven year term to maturity and an interest rate of 9.5% for two years. As the Extended Bridge Loan was not repaid on October 21, 2017, the interest rate increased to 11.5%. Through to October 21, 2018, lenders holding the Extended Bridge Loan may make a proposal for an offering of new securities which may carry a weighted average effective yield that is up to 150 basis points greater than 11.5%. On or after October 21, 2018 the lenders holding the Extended Bridge Loan may request the exchange of the Extended Bridge Loan into bonds with a maturity date of October 21, 2022 and bearing interest of 11.5%. Interest expense that was accrued on the Extended Bridge Loan for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $3,552 (2017 - $3,193).

(c)
On the Closing Date, the Company issued at par $790 million 9.5% senior unsecured notes due October 21, 2022 (the "October 2015 Notes"). The October 2015 Notes require no payment of principal throughout their term. Interest on the October 2015 Notes is payable semi-annually on June 15th and December 15th of each year. Interest expense that was accrued on the October 2015 Notes for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $19,387 (2017 - $18,505).

(d)
In connection with the acquisition of a portfolio of products from Covis Pharma S.à R.L. and Covis Injectables S.à R.L. on April 21, 2015 (the "Covis Acquisition") the Company issued at par $735 million 7.00% senior unsecured notes due April 21, 2023 (the "Covis Notes"). The Covis Notes require no payment of principal throughout their term. Interest on the Covis Notes is payable semi-annually on April 15th and October 15th of each year. Interest expense that was accrued on the Covis Notes for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $12,792 (2017 - $12,792).

(e)
On October 13, 2016, the Company issued at par $350 million 9.00% senior secured first lien notes due April 1, 2022 (the "Secured Notes"). The Secured Notes require no payment of principal throughout their term. Interest on the Secured Notes is payable semi-annually on April 1st and October 1st of each year. Interest expense on the Secured Notes for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $7,972 (2017 - $7,767).

The fair value of long-term debt as at March 31, 2018 was $2.0 billion (December 31, 2017 - $1.9 billion).

Guarantees
All directors and officers of the Company are indemnified by the Company for various items including, but not limited to, all costs to defend lawsuits or actions due to their association with the Company, subject to certain restrictions. The Company holds directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to mitigate the cost of any potential future lawsuits or actions.
In the normal course of business, the Company has entered into agreements that include indemnities in favour of third parties, such as purchase and sale agreements, confidentiality agreements, engagement letters with advisors and consultants, leasing contracts, license agreements, supply agreements, distribution agreements, information technology agreements and various product, service, data hosting and network access agreements. These indemnification arrangements may require the applicable Company entity to compensate counterparties for losses incurred by the counterparties as a result of breaches in representations, covenants and warranties provided by the particular Company entity or as a result of litigation or other third party claims or statutory sanctions that may be suffered by the counterparties as a consequence of the relevant transaction.
In connection with the acquisition of Zonegran®, the Company guaranteed the payment, performance and discharge of the purchaser's payment and indemnification obligations under the asset purchase agreement and each ancillary agreement entered into by the purchaser in connection therewith that contained payment or indemnification obligations. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement entered into in connection with the Covis Acquisition (the "Covis Purchase Agreement") the Company guaranteed the purchaser's obligations under the Covis Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the share purchase agreement entered into by the Company in connection with the Concordia International Acquisition, the Company guaranteed the obligations of the purchaser under the share purchase agreement and related transaction documents.

Litigation and Arbitration
From time to time, the Company becomes involved in various legal and administrative proceedings, which include product liability, intellectual property, commercial, antitrust, government and regulatory investigations, related private litigation and ordinary course employment-related issues. From time to time, the Company also initiates actions or files counterclaims. The Company could be subject to counterclaims or other suits in response to actions it may initiate. The Company believes that the prosecution of these actions and counterclaims is important to preserve and protect the Company, its reputation and its assets. Certain of these proceedings and actions are described below.

Unless otherwise indicated the Company cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these legal proceedings, nor can it currently estimate the amount of loss, or range of loss, if any, that may result from these proceedings. An adverse outcome in certain of these proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations, and could cause the market value of its common shares and/or debt securities to decline.

The Company and certain of its former executive officers are the subject of various class action complaints relating to the Company’s August 12, 2016 press release, whereby the Company revised its 2016 guidance.  The complaints allege that the Company issued false and misleading statements to investors and/or failed to disclose that: the Company was experiencing a substantial increase in market competition against its drug Donnatal®, and other products; as a result, Concordia’s financial results would suffer, and Concordia would be forced to suspend its dividend; and as a result Concordia’s statements about its business, operations and prospects were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. The class action lawsuits have been consolidated into a single case and a motion to dismiss this action was filed by the Company on February 20, 2017. On March 21, 2017, the plaintiffs in this action filed a response to the motion to dismiss, and on April 5, 2017 the Company filed a reply to plaintiffs' response. On July 28, 2017, the United States District Court, Southern District of New York denied the motion to dismiss in part and granted it in part. On February 7, 2018, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification. The Company filed an opposition to the plaintiffs' motion for class certification on March 12, 2018, and the plaintiffs filed a reply in support of class certification on March 28, 2018.

The Company and certain of its former executive officers were also subject to a class action complaint alleging that the Company made false and/or misleading statements, as well as, failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company's business operations and prospects, in the Company's Registration Statement, Prospectus and Supplemental Prospectus issued in connection with the Company's secondary offering completed on September 30, 2015. Specifically, the claim alleged that the statements were false and/or misleading and/or failed to disclose that: (i) the Company was experiencing a substantial increase in market competition against Donnatal®, and other products; (ii) consequently the Company's financial results would suffer and the Company would be forced to suspend its dividends; and (iii) as a result of the foregoing, the defendant's statements about the Company's business operations and prospects were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. On June 27, 2017, the plaintiff in this action voluntarily dismissed the complaint on a without prejudice basis.

The Company and certain of its former executive officers and a former director are subject to a securities class action filed in Quebec, Canada. The amended statement of claim alleges that the Company failed to disclose adverse material facts relating to, and misrepresented, among other things, the Company's business model, growth platforms, proforma revenues and dividend payments in certain disclosures from March 23, 2016 to August 11, 2016. This class action has not yet been certified nor has leave to bring a statutory claim under securities legislation yet been granted. On June 15, 2017, the plaintiff in the action discontinued their claim against the Company's Board of Directors (other than the one former director) and certain of its former executive officers.

On October 19, 2017, a statement of claim was filed in Ontario, Canada against the Company and certain of its former executive officers on behalf of all persons and entities, other than persons resident in Quebec, Canada, which alleges substantially the same claims as the Quebec action described above. This class action has not yet been certified nor has leave to bring a statutory claim under securities legislation yet been granted.

On October 25, 2016, the Company announced that the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) commenced an investigation into various issues in relation to the UK pharmaceutical sector, and that the Concordia International segment was part of the inquiry. The CMA’s investigation includes matters that pre-date Concordia’s ownership of the Concordia International segment and relates to the Company’s pricing of three products. On May 31, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA notified the Company that it was continuing its investigation after an initial stop/go decision. On November 21, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA issued a statement of objections to the Company, and the former owners of the Concordia International segment, Hg Capital and Cinven, in relation to the pricing of one of the three products, liothyronine, in the United Kingdom between November 2007 and at least July 2017. A statement of objections is a formal statement by the CMA that it considers that a competition infringement may have occurred. On February 15, 2018, the Company announced that the CMA notified the Company that it was closing its investigation related to Fusidic Acid, also one of the three products under investigation. On April 20, 2018, the Company responded in detail to the statement of objections.

On March 3, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA issued a statement of objections to a third party and the Company in relation to the supply of 10mg hydrocortisone tablets in the UK between 2013 and 2016. On May 26, 2017, the Company responded in detail to the statement of objections and on July 20, 2017 the Company attended an oral hearing to present the key points of its response to the CMA decision panel. This investigation includes matters that pre-date the Company’s ownership of the Concordia International segment.

On October 11, 2017, the Company announced that the CMA commenced additional investigations in relation to the UK pharmaceutical sector, and that the Concordia International segment and certain of its products are part of the inquiry. These investigations are at an early information gathering stage and the CMA has confirmed that, at this time, it has not reached a conclusion on whether competition law has been infringed. These investigations include matters that predate the Company's ownership of the Concordia International segment, and involve the following products: Carbimazole, Nitrofurantoin, Prochlorperazine, Dicycloverine, Trazodone and Nefopam.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company became aware that a third party had notified wholesalers, through listing services, of its intent to distribute and sell in certain US regions a non-FDA approved copy of

Donnatal®. On January 6, 2016, the Company commenced a lawsuit against the third party and its principal owner claiming damages from such conduct, and on April 29, 2016 and May 3, 2016 commenced proceedings against two listing services for the continued listing of the products in their database. In May 2016, the Company became aware that this non-FDA approved product was introduced into certain US regions. On October 4, 2016 and November 16, 2016, the Company dismissed its claims against the listing services on a without prejudice basis, respectively. On March 15, 2017, the court ruled on the third party's motion to dismiss the Company's claim, denying such motion in part and granting it in part. On March 29, 2017, the third party filed its answer and counter claim in response to the Company's claim. On August 16, 2017, this third party filed a motion to amend its counterclaim to add factual allegations detailing the scope of the Company's campaign to disparage its products and interfere with its contractual and business relationships. On November 8, 2017, the court granted the Company's motion for leave to file its second amended complaint, permitting the Company to include its direct false advertising claim. The Company continues to pursue this lawsuit vigorously. In a similar lawsuit commenced against Method Pharmaceuticals, LLC ("Method") and its principal owner, the Company received a favorable jury verdict on April 21, 2016 and was awarded damages in the amount of approximately $733. On March 2, 2017, the United States District Court - Western District of Virginia, Charlottesville Division, granted the Company's motion for enhanced damages in part, to amend the judgment against Method and its principal owner to reflect an award of damages in the total amount of approximately $2.2 million. On March 30, 2017, Method filed a motion to reconsider the order on enhanced damages. On April 13, 2017, the Company filed an opposition to Method's motion to reconsider. On July 19, 2017, the court denied Method's motion to reconsider and further awarded the Company an additional $15 in costs. On August 30, 2017, Method filed a notice of appearance with the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit to appeal the enhanced damages award. On February 1, 2018, Method and its principal owner and the Company settled the enhanced damages award.

During the second quarter of 2017, the Company became aware that an additional third party had launched a competitor product to Donnatal®. The Company continues to assess its legal rights against such third party.

The Company was subject to a class action proceeding in relation to one of its third party distributors purportedly faxing unsolicited advertisements to market Ulesfia® in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act. On April 9, 2017, the court in this action dismissed the Company's motion to dismiss and on June 8, 2017 the court denied the Company's motion for reconsideration. On November 6, 2017, the court issued an order re-evaluating its previous finding of personal jurisdiction, which order required the plaintiffs in this action to make a new submission rebutting the evidence submitted by defendants showing that there is no personal jurisdiction. On December 1, 2017, the court dismissed this claim against the Company for lack of personal jurisdiction.

On September 16, 2016, the Company announced the introduction of a bill into the U.K. House of Commons to amend and extend existing provisions of the National Health Service Act 2006 to enable the Secretary of State to help manage the cost of health service medicines. On April 27 2017, the U.K. government accorded Royal Assent to the Act. The Act introduces provisions in connection with controlling the cost of health service medicines and other medical supplies. The Act also introduces provisions in connection with the provision of pricing and other information by manufacturers, distributors and suppliers of those medicines and medical supplies. The Company continues to monitor the implementation of the Act. While the effects of the Act are unknown at this time, the Act could impose certain risks and uncertainties on the Company's operations and cash flows.
17. Financial Risk Management
The Company’s activities expose it to certain financial risks, including currency risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk.
The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements, and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Currency Risk
The Company operates primarily in USD, GBP and European Euro ("EUR"). Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognized assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.
The table below shows the extent to which the Company has net monetary assets (liabilities) in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company.

Interest Rate Risk
The long-term debt which bears interest at floating rates is subject to interest rate cash flow risk resulting from market fluctuations in interest rates. Contingent consideration payable and certain long-term debt bear interest at a fixed rate of interest, and as such are subject to interest rate price risk resulting from changes in fair value from market fluctuations in interest rates. A 1% appreciation (depreciation) in the interest rate would result in the following:

Credit Risk
The Company’s investment policies are designed to mitigate the possibility of deterioration of principal, enhance the Company’s ability to meet its liquidity needs and provide high returns within those parameters. Management monitors the collectability of accounts receivable and estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts. As at March 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2,411 (December 31, 2017 – $2,777).

Concentrations of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of accounts receivable.
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its accounts receivable on an on-going basis. As of March 31, 2018 the Company’s three largest U.S. wholesale customers account for approximately 26% or $39 million of net

trade receivables and 18% or $27 million of total revenue. The Company does not consider there to be additional concentration risk within the Concordia International segment.
Liquidity Risk
The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to determine funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. Since inception, the Company has financed its cash requirements primarily through issuances of securities, short-term borrowings and issuances of long-term debt. The Company controls liquidity risk through management of working capital, cash flows and the availability and sourcing of financing.

Refer to Note 2 for a further discussion on the Company's realignment of its capital structure and related liquidity considerations.

The following tables summarize the Company’s significant contractual undiscounted cash flows as at March 31, 2018:

(a) Long-term debt cash flows include an estimate of the minimum required annual excess cash flow sweep (refer to Note 13 (a)). No payments of excess cash flow are expected to be made in 2018. In addition, any payments that would be due as a result of the excess cash flow calculation would be stayed by the CBCA preliminary interim order. Refer to Notes 2 and 13 for details on long-term debt classification as at March 31, 2018 and the CBCA Proceedings.
(b) The contractual interest amount as at March 31, 2018 reflects the accrued interest payable on long-term debt.
18. Financial Instruments – Fair Value Estimation
Accounting classifications and fair values
The fair value of a financial asset or liability is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. For the financial assets and liabilities of the Company, the fair values have been estimated as described below:
Cash and cash equivalents
- approximates to the carrying amount;
Long-term debt
- based on quoted price, or by reference to observable quoted prices for similar long-term debt;
Receivables and payables
- approximates to the carrying amount

The following table presents the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities, including their levels in the fair value hierarchy:

On May 2, 2018, the Company also announced that it appointed Guy Clark as the Company's Chief Corporate Development Officer, and also announced the departure of Sarwar Islam, the Company's former Chief Corporate Development Officer.
Capital realignment
On May 2, 2018, the Company announced a proposed Recapitalization Transaction, as described in Note 2, that includes a plan to raise new equity capital of $586.5 million, and to reduce the Company’s total outstanding debt by approximately $2.4 billion. Additionally, as part of the Recapitalization Transaction, the Company confirmed the termination amount of the Currency Swaps of $114,431.
In connection with the proposed Recapitalization Transaction, the Company entered into a Support Agreement with certain holders of the Company’s existing secured debt (the "Secured Debt") and certain holders of the Company’s existing unsecured debt (the "Unsecured Debt") that are subject to confidentiality agreements with Concordia and which hold in the aggregate approximately $1.6 billion in principal amount, or approximately 72%, of the Company’s Secured Debt and approximately $1.0 billion in principal amount, or approximately 64% of the Company’s Unsecured Debt (the “Initial Consenting Debtholders”). The Initial Consenting Debtholders are comprised of an ad hoc committee of holders of Secured Debt and an ad hoc committee of holders of Unsecured Debt. Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Initial Consenting Debtholders have, among other things, agreed to support the Recapitalization Transaction and vote in favour of the plan of arrangement (the "CBCA Plan") in Concordia’s CBCA Proceedings under which the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be implemented.
In addition, on May 2, 2018 Concordia obtained an interim order (the "Interim Order") issued by the Court in the CBCA Proceedings authorizing, among other things, the holding of the following meetings (the "Meetings") scheduled for June 19, 2018: (i) a meeting of holders of the Secured Debt (the “Secured Debtholders”); (ii) a meeting of holders of the Unsecured Debt (the “Unsecured Debtholders”); and (iii) a meeting of holders of the Company’s common shares (the “Shareholders”), in each case to consider and vote upon, among other things, the CBCA Plan to implement the Recapitalization Transaction.
The Recapitalization Transaction contemplates the following key terms and conditions:
Secured Debt
The Company’s Secured Debt in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $2.2 billion, plus accrued and unpaid interest, will be exchanged for (i) cash in an amount equal to any outstanding accrued and unpaid interest (at contractual non-default rates) in respect of the Secured Debt, (ii) cash in the amount of $500 million (the “Secured Creditor Cash Pool”), (iii) any Additional Cash Amount (as defined below) and (iv) new secured debt ("New Secured Debt") comprised of new senior secured term loans (“New Senior Secured Term Loans”) and new senior secured notes (“New Senior Secured Notes”). The Company expects the aggregate principal amount of the New Secured Debt to be issued to Secured Debtholders pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction to be approximately $1.4 billion;
Each Secured Debtholder will receive its pro rata share of the New Secured Debt, in the form of either New Senior Secured Term Loans or New Senior Secured Notes depending on the type of Secured Debt held by such Secured Debtholder, subject to (i) holders of the Company’s existing secured term loans as of the record date of May 9, 2018 (the “Record Date”) having the right to elect to receive their New Secured Debt in the form of New Senior Secured Notes, provided that any such elections may be subject to certain re-allocations pursuant to the terms of the Recapitalization Transaction, and (ii) Secured

Debtholders receiving New Senior Secured Term Loans having the right to elect to receive their New Senior Secured Term Loans denominated in U.S. dollars or Euros, provided that any such elections may be subject to certain re-allocations pursuant to the terms of the Recapitalization Transaction;
Secured Debtholders as of the Record Date who vote in favour of the CBCA Plan on or prior to the early consent date of June 6, 2018 (the “Early Consent Date”), as it may be extended by Concordia (the “Early Consenting Secured Debtholders”) will be entitled to receive on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan early consent consideration in the form of cash equal to 5% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Early Consenting Secured Debtholder as of the Record Date and voted in favour of the CBCA Plan (the “Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration”) as additional consideration in exchange for their Secured Debt;
If the aggregate amount of Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration that becomes payable pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction is less than $100 million, then an amount equal to the difference between $100 million and the amount of Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration that becomes payable (the “Additional Cash Amount”) will be paid on a pro rata basis to each Secured Debtholder as additional consideration in exchange for their Secured Debt; and
The final principal amount of New Secured Debt to be issued pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction shall be in such amount that results in the aggregate consideration payable to Secured Debtholders pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction by way of the Secured Creditor Cash Pool, the New Secured Debt and the Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration (but not including the payment of accrued and unpaid interest or the Additional Cash Amount) being equal to 93.3835% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Secured Debtholders if such Secured Debtholders are Early Consenting Secured Debtholders, and approximately 88.3835% of the principal amount of Secured Debt owing to such Secured Debtholders if such Secured Debtholders are not Early Consenting Secured Debtholders.

Unsecured Debt
The Company’s Unsecured Debt in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.6 billion, plus accrued and unpaid interest, will be exchanged for (i) new common shares of Concordia representing approximately 8% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following the implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction (the “Unsecured Debt Exchange Shares”) and (ii) any Reallocated Unsecured Shares (as defined below);
Unsecured Debtholders as of the Record Date who vote in favour of the CBCA Plan on or prior to the Early Consent Date, as it may be extended by Concordia (the “Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholders”) will be entitled to receive on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan early consent consideration in the form of new common shares of Concordia equal to their pro rata share (calculated based on the principal amount of Unsecured Debt held by such Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholder as at the Record Date and voted in favour of the CBCA Plan, divided by the aggregate principal amount of Unsecured Debt outstanding as at the Record Date) of a pool of common shares (the “Unsecured Early Consent Share Pool”) representing approximately 4% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan (the “Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares”) as additional consideration in exchange for their Unsecured Debt; and
If less than 100% of Unsecured Debt is voted in favour of the CBCA Plan by Early Consenting Unsecured Debtholders, any shares remaining in the Unsecured Early Consent Share Pool not issued as Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares (the “Reallocated Unsecured Shares”) will be issued to all holders of Unsecured Debt on a pro rata basis as additional consideration for their Unsecured Debt.

Private Placement
Approximately $586.5 million (the “Total Offering Size”) in cash will be invested to acquire new common shares of Concordia representing in the aggregate approximately 88% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following the implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction (the “Private Placement Shares”) by certain parties who executed the Subscription Agreement with the Company

concurrently with the execution of the Support Agreement (the “Private Placement Parties”) pursuant to a private placement (the “Private Placement”);
The proceeds of the Private Placement will be used towards paying the Secured Creditor Cash Pool and the Secured Debtholder Early Consent Cash Consideration to be paid as part of the consideration for the exchange of the Secured Debt;
Each of the Private Placement Parties will be entitled to receive its pro rata share (based on its subscription commitment) of cash consideration in the aggregate amount of $44 million (subject to any corresponding adjustments to the extent the Total Offering Size is reduced pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreement) (the “Private Placement Consideration”), which is payable on the terms set out in the Subscription Agreement, including on completion of the Recapitalization Transaction and certain earlier events; and
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Private Placement Parties and the Company expect to agree on certain governance terms and registration rights.  The governance terms will be described in more detail in the Company’s management information circular to be mailed to Secured Debtholders, Unsecured Debtholders and Shareholders in connection with the various Meetings to be held to approve the CBCA Plan.

Existing Shares and Equity Claims
Upon completion of the Recapitalization Transaction, existing Shareholders will retain their existing common shares of Concordia, subject to a share consolidation of one common share in exchange for 300 existing common shares to be implemented as part of the Recapitalization Transaction (the “Share Consolidation”) and the dilution resulting from the issuance of common shares pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction, such that the existing Shareholders will own approximately 0.35% of the outstanding common shares of Concordia immediately following implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction; and
All other equity interests in Concordia, including all options, warrants, rights or similar instruments, will be cancelled on implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the CBCA Plan, and all equity claims, other than existing equity class action claims against Concordia ("Existing Equity Class Action Claims"), will be released pursuant to the CBCA Plan, provided that any recovery in respect of any Existing Equity Class Action Claims will be limited to recovery as against any applicable insurance policies maintained by the Company.

Share Dilution
The existing common shares retained by the Shareholders upon implementation of the Recapitalization Transaction and the common shares to be issued under the CBCA Plan, including the Unsecured Debt Exchange Shares, the Reallocated Unsecured Shares, the Unsecured Debtholder Early Consent Shares and the Private Placement Shares, shall be subject to dilution following the completion of the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to the issuance of any new common shares under the management equity incentive plan to be adopted pursuant to the Recapitalization Transaction.

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of applicable conditions, the Recapitalization Transaction is expected to be completed by July 31, 2018.
In connection with the Recapitalization Transaction, it is anticipated that Concordia will continue from the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) to the CBCA.


Alternative Implementation Process
The Recapitalization Transaction is being implemented pursuant to the CBCA Plan. The Company is also soliciting votes to advance the Recapitalization Transaction pursuant to insolvency proceedings under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (a “Chapter 11 Process”), contemporaneously with soliciting votes in respect of the CBCA Plan. Concordia currently intends to complete and implement the CBCA Plan pursuant to the CBCA

Proceedings. Contemporaneous solicitation of votes in respect of a Chapter 11 Process ensures that the Company has the future ability to also complete the Recapitalization Transaction under such an alternative implementation process if the Company elects to do so in the future, subject to certain conditions and consent requirements as provided for in the Support Agreement. In addition, in accordance with the terms of the Interim Order, a vote cast in favour of the CBCA Plan at the Meetings may also be counted in favour of implementing a plan of arrangement on substantially similar terms in any insolvency proceedings under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (Canada) that may be commenced by the Company, to the extent such proceedings are consented to by the majority Private Placement Parties and the majority initial consenting debtholders.
