Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S.

federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks.

Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the Audit Committee and that:

(1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements;

and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments.

The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Revenue growth rates utilized in the determination of the fair values of acquired customer relationships for certain acquisitions

As described in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired several companies in the current year.

As a result of the acquisitions, management was required to determine estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including certain identifiable intangible assets.

In some instances, management utilized third-party valuation specialists to assist in the preparation of the valuation of certain identifiable intangible assets.

Management exercised significant judgment to develop and select revenue growth rates in the measurement of the fair value of the customer relationships.

We identified the revenue growth rates utilized in the determination of the fair values of acquired customer relationships for certain acquisitions, as a critical audit matter.

The principal considerations for our determination included the following:

(i) management utilizes significant unobservable inputs and assumptions in determining the projected revenue growth rates and (ii) changes in the revenue growth rates could have a significant impact on the fair value of acquired customer relationships for certain acquisitions.

Auditing these elements involved especially subjective auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit effort required to address these matters.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

Assessing the design and implementation of controls over the development of projected revenue growth rates used to determine the fair values of certain customer relationships.

Assessing the reasonableness of the projected revenue growth rates through:

(i) evaluating historical performance, (ii) comparing historical revenue growth rates to audited financial statements, and (iii) assessing financial projections against industry metrics and peer-group companies.

Nature of Operations

We distribute health care products and services primarily to office-based dental and medical practitioners, across dental practices, laboratories, physician practices, and ambulatory surgery centers, as well as government, institutional health care clinics and alternate care clinics.

We also provide software, technology and other value-added services to health care practitioners.

Our dental businesses serve office-based dental practitioners, dental laboratories, schools, government and other institutions.

Our medical businesses serve physician offices, urgent care centers, ambulatory care sites, emergency medical technicians, dialysis centers, home health, federal and state governments and large enterprises, such as group practices and integrated delivery networks, among other providers across a wide range of specialties.

We have operations or affiliates in the United States, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hong Kong SAR, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.

Principles of Consolidation

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Henry Schein, Inc.

and all of our controlled subsidiaries.

All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Investments in unconsolidated affiliates in which we have the ability to influence the operating or financial decisions, are accounted for under the equity method.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

We consolidate the results of operations and financial position of a trade accounts receivable securitization which we consider a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) because we are the primary beneficiary, and we have the power to direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance and have the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses or benefits.

For this VIE, the trade accounts receivable transferred to the VIE are pledged as collateral to the related debt.

collateral to the related debt.

The creditors have recourse to us for losses on these trade accounts receivable.

At December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, certain trade accounts receivable that can only be used to settle obligations of this VIE were $ 138.0 million and $ 0.0 million, respectively and the liabilities of this VIE where the creditors have recourse to us were $ 105.0 million and $ 0.0 million, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared Novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) a pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of global financial markets.

In response, many countries implemented business closures and restrictions, stay-at-home and social distancing ordinances and similar measures to combat the pandemic, which significantly impacted global business and dramatically reduced demand for dental products and certain medical products in the second quarter of 2020.

Demand increased in the second half of 2020 and continued throughout 2021 resulting in growth over the prior year.

recognize revenue when, or as, the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

We generate revenue from the sale of dental and medical consumable products, equipment (Health care distribution revenues), software products and services and other sources (Technology and value-added services revenues).

Provisions for discounts, rebates to customers, customer returns and other contra revenue adjustments are included in the transaction price at contract inception by estimating the most likely amount based upon historical data and estimates and are provided for in the period in which the related sales are recognized.

Revenue derived from the sale of consumable products is recognized at a point in time when control transfers to the customer.

Such sales typically entail high-volume, low-dollar orders shipped using third-party common carriers.

We believe that the shipment date is the most appropriate point in time indicating control has transferred to the customer because we have no post-shipment obligations and this is when legal title and risks and rewards of ownership transfer to the customer and the point at which we have an enforceable right to payment.

Revenue derived from the sale of equipment is recognized when control transfers to the customer.

This occurs when the equipment is delivered.

Such sales typically entail scheduled deliveries of large equipment primarily by equipment service technicians.

Most equipment requires minimal installation, which is typically completed at the time of delivery.

Our product generally carries standard warranty terms provided by the manufacturer, however, in instances where we provide warranty labor services, the warranty costs are accrued in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 460 “Guarantees”.

At December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, we had accrued approximately $ 8.1 million and $ 6.9 million, respectively, for warranty costs.

Revenue derived from the sale of software products is recognized when

products are delivered to customers or

made available electronically.

Such software is generally installed by customers and does not

require extensive

training due to the nature of its design.

Revenue derived from post-contract customer support for software, including annual support and/or training, is generally recognized over time using time elapsed as the input method that best depicts the transfer of control to the customer.

Revenue derived from software sold on Software-as-a -Service basis is recognized ratably over the subscription period as control is transferred to the customer.

Revenue derived from other sources, including freight charges, equipment repairs and financial services, is recognized when the related product revenue is recognized or when the services are provided.

We apply the practical expedient to treat shipping and handling activities performed after the customer obtains control as fulfillment activities, rather than a separate performance obligation in the contract.

Sales, value-add and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

Certain of our revenue is derived from bundled arrangements that include multiple distinct performance obligations, which are accounted for separately.

When we sell software products together with related services (i.e., training and technical support), we allocate revenue to software using the residual method, using an estimate of the standalone selling price to estimate the fair value of the undelivered elements.

Bundled arrangements that include elements that are not considered software consist primarily of equipment and the related installation service.

We allocate revenue for such arrangements based on the relative selling prices of the goods or services.

If an observable selling price is not available (i.e., we do not sell the goods or services separately), we use one of the following techniques to estimate the standalone selling price:

We estimate the amount of revenue expected to be reversed to calculate the sales return liability based on historical data for specific products, adjusted as necessary for new products.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair

value of the net assets acquired,

including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets.

Goodwill is subject to impairment analysis annually

or more frequently if needed.

Such impairment analyses for goodwill requires a comparison of the

fair value to the

carrying value of reporting units.

We regard our reporting units to be our operating segments:

global dental;

global medical;

and technology and value-added services.

Goodwill was allocated to such reporting units, for the purposes of preparing our impairment analyses, based on a specific identification basis.

For the years ended December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020 we tested goodwill for impairment, on the first day of the fourth quarter, using a quantitative analysis comparing the carrying value of our reporting units, including goodwill, to the estimated fair value of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow methodology.

If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired.

Conversely, impairment loss would be equivalent to the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying value over its fair value limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities that are considered shared services to the reporting units, and ultimately the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.

The fair value of each reporting unit is calculated by applying the discounted cash flow methodology and confirming with a market approach.

There are inherent uncertainties, however, related to fair value models, the inputs and our judgments in applying them to this analysis.

Intangible assets, other than goodwill, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to be derived from such assets.

Definite-lived intangible assets primarily consist of non-compete agreements, trademarks, trade names, customer lists, customer relationships and product development.

For long-lived assets used in operations, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows.

Our derivative instruments primarily include foreign currency forward agreements related to certain intercompany loans, certain forecasted inventory purchase commitments with foreign suppliers and foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a portion of our euro-denominated foreign operations which are designated as net investment hedges.

Foreign currency forward agreements related to forecasted inventory purchase commitments with foreign suppliers and foreign currency swaps related to foreign currency denominated debt are designated as cash flow hedges.

For derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

We classify the cash flows related to our hedging activities in the same category on our consolidated statements of cash flows as the cash flows related to the hedged item.

Foreign currency forward contracts related to our euro-denominated foreign operations are designated as net investment hedges.

For derivatives that are designated and qualify as net investment hedges, the changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in the foreign currency translation gain (loss) component of Accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity until the net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

Our foreign currency forward agreements related to foreign currency balance sheet exposure provide economic hedges but are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

For agreements not designated as hedges, changes in the value of the derivative, along with the transaction gain or loss on the hedged item, are recorded in earnings .

Total return swaps are entered into for the purpose of economically hedging our unfunded non-qualified supplemental retirement plan (“SERP”) and our d eferred compensation plan (“DCP”) .

This swap will offset changes in our SERP and DCP liabilities.

This swap is expected to be renewed on an annual basis.

At the acquisition

date, an acquirer should account for the related revenue contracts in accordance

with Topic 606 as if it had

originated the contracts.

To achieve this, an acquirer may assess how the acquiree applied Topic 606 to determine

what to record for the acquired revenue contracts.

Generally, this should result in an acquirer recognizing and

measuring the acquired contract assets and contract liabilities consistent with how

they were recognized and

measured in the acquiree’s financial statements.

Note 4 – Business Acquisitions and Divestitures

We account for business acquisitions and combinations under the acquisition method of accounting, where the net assets of acquired businesses are recorded at their fair value at the acquisition date and our consolidated financial statements include their results of operations from that date.

Any excess of acquisition consideration over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

Goodwill is an asset presenting the future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and separately recognized, such as future customers and technology, as well as the assembled workforce.

Excluding goodwill, the major classes of assets and liabilities to which we generally allocate acquisition consideration include identifiable intangible assets (i.e., customer relationships and lists, trademarks and trade names, product development, and non-compete agreements), inventory and accounts receivable.

The estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based on critical judgments and assumptions derived from analysis of market conditions, including discount rates, projected revenue growth rates (which are based on historical trends and assessment of financial projections), estimated customer attrition and projected cash flows.

These assumptions are forward-looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions.

If certain financial targets are met after the date of acquisition, certain prior owners of acquired subsidiaries are eligible to receive additional purchase price cash consideration, or we may be entitled to recoup a portion of purchase price cash consideration if certain financial targets are met.

We accrue the estimated fair value of such contingent consideration at the time of the acquisition, using the income approach, including a probability-weighted discounted cash flow method or an option pricing method, where applicable.

While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement.

As a result, within 12 months following the date of acquisition, or the measurement period, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill within our consolidated balance sheets.

At the end of the measurement period or final determination of the values of such assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations.

We completed acquisitions during the year ended December 25, 2021, which were immaterial to our financial statements individually, and in which our ownership interests ranged from approximately 51 % to 100 %.

Acquisitions within our health care distribution segment included companies that specialize in the distribution and manufacturing of dental and medical products, a provider of home medical supplies, and a provider of product kitting and sterile packaging.

Note 9 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs).

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

Derivative contracts

Derivative contracts are valued using quoted market prices and significant other observable inputs.

We use derivative instruments to minimize our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.

Our derivative instruments primarily include foreign currency forward agreements related to certain intercompany loans, certain forecasted inventory purchase commitments with foreign suppliers, foreign currency forward contracts to hedge a portion of our euro-denominated foreign operations which are designated as net investment hedges and a total return swap for the purpose of economically hedging our unfunded non-qualified SERP and our DCP.

The fair values for the majority of our foreign currency derivative contracts are obtained by comparing our contract rate to a published forward price of the underlying market rates, which is based on market rates for comparable transactions and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Revolving Credit Agreement

On August 20, 2021 , we entered into a new $ 1 billion revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”).

This facility, which matures on August 20, 2026 , replaced our $ 750 million revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to mature in April 2022.

The interest rate is based on the USD LIBOR plus a spread based on our leverage ratio at the end of each financial reporting quarter.

We expect most LIBOR rates to be discontinued immediately after December 31, 2021, while the remaining LIBOR rates will be discontinued immediately after June 30, 2023.

We do not expect the discontinuation of LIBOR as a reference rate in our debt agreements to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or to materially affect our interest expense.

The Credit Agreement also requires, among other things, that we maintain certain maximum leverage ratios.

Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and affirmative covenants as well as customary negative covenants, subject to negotiated exceptions, on liens, indebtedness, significant corporate changes (including mergers), dispositions and certain restrictive agreements.

As of December 25, 2021, and December 26, 2020, we had no borrowings under this revolving credit facility.

As of December 25, 2021, and December 26, 2020, there were $ 9.1 million and $ 9.5 million of letters of credit, respectively, provided to third parties under the credit facility.

On March 4, 2021, we repaid the outstanding obligations and terminated the lender commitments under our $ 700 million 364-day credit agreement, which was entered into on April 17, 2020 .

This facility was originally scheduled to mature on April 16, 2021 .

As of December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, we had various other short-term bank credit lines available, of which $ 50.5 million and $ 73.4 million, respectively, were outstanding.

At December 25, 2021 and December 26, 2020, borrowings under all of these credit lines had a weighted average interest rate of 10.44 % and 4.14 %, respectively.

Any future reductions of such valuation allowances will be reflected as a reduction of income tax expense.

The assessment of the amount of value assigned to our deferred tax assets under the applicable accounting rules is judgmental.

We are required to consider all available positive and negative evidence in evaluating the likelihood that we will be able to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets in the future.

Realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income in future periods.

We believe that it is more likely than not that future taxable income will be sufficient to allow us to recover substantially all of the value assigned to our deferred tax assets.

However, if future events cause us to conclude that it is not more likely than not that we will be able to recover all of the value assigned to our deferred tax assets, we will be required to adjust our valuation allowance accordingly.

The modifications to Section 163(j) increase the allowable business interest deduction from 30 % of adjusted taxable income to 50 % of adjusted taxable income for years beginning in 2019 and 2020.

The CARES Act eliminated the NOL income limitation for years beginning before 2021 and it extended the carryback period to five years for losses incurred in 2018, 2019 and 2020.

We are currently unable in good faith to make a determination of an estimate of the amount or range of

amounts expected to be incurred in connection with these activities, both with

respect to each major type of cost

associated therewith and with respect to the total cost, or an estimate of the

amount or range of amounts that will

result in future cash expenditures.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded restructuring charges of $

million primarily related to

severance and employee-related costs, accelerated amortization of right-of-use

lease assets, impairment of other

long-lived assets and lease exit costs.

During the three months ended December 31, 2022, in connection with our

restructuring plan, we vacated

The disposal is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023.

On August 26, 2022, we acquired Midway Dental Supply.

In connection with this acquisition, during the year

Henry Schein has been named as a defendant in multiple lawsuits (currently less than one-hundred and seventy-five (175);

in less than half of those cases one or more of Schein’s affiliated companies is also named as a defendant), which allege that manufacturers of prescription opioid drugs engaged in a false advertising campaign to expand the market for such drugs and their own market share and that the entities in the supply chain (including Henry Schein, Inc.) reaped financial rewards by refusing or otherwise failing to monitor appropriately and restrict the improper distribution of those drugs.

These actions consist of some that have been consolidated within the MultiDistrict Litigation (“MDL”) proceeding In Re National Prescription Opiate Litigation (MDL No.

Note 16 – Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based awards are provided to certain employees and non-employee directors under the terms of our 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and our 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan (together, the “Plans”).

The Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”).

Historically, equity-based awards have been granted solely in the form of time-based and performance-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”).

However, beginning in 2021, our equity-based awards have been granted in the form of time-based RSUs and non-qualified stock options.

As of December 25, 2021, there were 70,943 shares authorized and 9,368 shares available to be granted under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and 1,893 shares authorized and 229 shares available to be granted under the 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan.

Grants of RSUs are stock-based awards granted to recipients with specified vesting provisions.

In the case of RSUs, common stock is generally delivered on or following satisfaction of vesting conditions.

We issue RSUs that vest solely based on the recipient’s continued service over time (primarily four -year cliff vesting, except for grants made under the 2015 Non-Employee Director Stock Incentive Plan, which are primarily 12 -month cliff vesting), and RSUs that vest based on our achieving specified performance measurements and the recipient’s continued service over time (primarily three -year cliff vesting).

For these RSUs, we recognize the cost as compensation expense on a straight-line basis.

With respect to time-based RSUs, we estimate the fair value on the date of grant based on our closing stock price at time of grant.

With respect to performance-based RSUs, the number of shares that ultimately vest and are received by the recipient is based upon our performance as measured against specified targets over a specified period, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

Although there is no guarantee that performance targets will be achieved, we estimate the fair value of performance-based RSUs based on our closing stock price at time of grant.

The Plans provide for adjustments to the performance-based RSU targets for significant events, including, without limitation, acquisitions, divestitures, new business ventures, certain capital transactions (including share repurchases), restructuring costs, if any, certain litigation settlements or payments, if any, changes in accounting principles or in applicable laws or regulations, changes in income tax rates in certain markets and foreign exchange fluctuations.

Over the performance period, the number of shares of common stock that will ultimately vest and be issued and the related compensation expense is adjusted upward or downward based upon our estimation of achieving such performance targets.

The ultimate number of shares delivered to recipients and the related compensation cost recognized as an expense will be based on our actual performance metrics as defined under the Plans.

During the three months ended March 27, 2021, as a result of the continuing economic risk and uncertainty resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the Compensation Committee decided to adjust the form of awards granted under our 2021 long-term incentive program for our 2021 fiscal year in a manner that focuses on our long-term value by granting non-qualified stock options and time-based RSUs rather than performance-based RSUs.

Stock options are awards that allow the recipient to purchase shares of our common stock at a fixed price following vesting of the stock options.

Stock options are granted at an exercise price equal to our closing stock price on the date of grant.

Stock options issued during 2021 vest one-third per year based on the recipient’s continued service, subject to the terms and conditions of the Plans, are fully vested three years from the grant date and have a contractual term of ten years from the grant date, subject to earlier termination of the term upon certain events.

Compensation expense for these stock options is recognized using a graded vesting method.

(in thousands, except per share data)

The following table presents the estimated pension benefit payments that are payable to the plan’s participants as of December 25, 2021:

We offer qualified 401(k) plans to substantially all our domestic full-time employees.

As determined by our Board of Directors, matching contributions to these plans generally do not exceed 100 % of the participants’ contributions up to 7 % of their base compensation, subject to applicable legal limits.

Matching contributions consist of cash and were allocated entirely to the participants’ investment elections on file, subject to a 20 % allocation limit to the Henry Schein Stock Fund.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, as part of our initiative to generate cash savings, we suspended the matching contribution for the second half of 2020.

The matching contribution has been reinstated for 2021.

Forfeitures attributable to participants whose employment terminates prior to becoming fully vested are used to reduce our matching contributions and offset administrative expenses of the 401(k) plans.

Assets of the 401(k) and other defined contribution plans are held in self-directed accounts enabling participants to choose from various investment fund options.

Matching contributions related to these plans charged to operations during the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 amounted to $ 37.5 million, $ 20.5 million and $ 35.4 million, respectively.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

We offer an unfunded, non-qualified SERP to eligible employees.

This plan generally covers officers and certain highly compensated employees after they have reached the maximum IRS allowed pre-tax 401(k) contribution limit.

Our contributions to this plan are equal to the 401(k) employee-elected contribution percentage applied to base compensation for the portion of the year in which such employees are not eligible to make pre-tax contributions to the 401(k) plan.

Due to the impact of COVID-19, as part of our initiative to generate cash savings, we suspended contributions under the SERP for the second half of 2020.

Contributions to the SERP were restored in 2021.

The amounts charged to operations during the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 amounted to $ 2.4 million, $ 2.8 million and $ 4.0 million, respectively.

Please see Note 11 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities for additional information.

Deferred Compensation Plan

During 2011, we began to offer DCP to a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company and certain subsidiaries.

This plan allows for the elective deferral of base salary, bonus and/or commission compensation by eligible employees.

The amounts charged to operations during the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020 and December 28, 2019 were approximately $ 8.4 million, $ 7.8 million and $ 8.3 million, respectively.

Animal Health Spin-off

On February 7, 2019 (the “Distribution Date”), we completed the separation (the “Separation”) and subsequent merger (“Merger”) of our animal health business (the “Henry Schein Animal Health Business”) with Direct Vet Marketing, Inc.

(d/b/a Vets First Choice, “Vets First Choice”).

This was accomplished by a series of transactions among us, Vets First Choice, Covetrus, Inc.

On February 7, 2019 (the “Distribution Date”), we completed the separation

(the “Separation”) and subsequent

merger (“Merger”) of our animal health business (the “Henry Schein Animal Health Business”) with Direct

Marketing, Inc.

(d/b/a Vets First Choice, “Vets

First Choice”).

This was accomplished by a series of transactions

among us, Vets

First Choice, Covetrus, Inc.

(f/k/a HS Spinco, Inc.

“Covetrus”), a wholly owned subsidiary of ours prior to the Distribution Date, and HS Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Covetrus (“Merger Sub”).

In connection with the Separation, we contributed, assigned and transferred to Covetrus certain applicable assets, liabilities and capital stock or other ownership interests relating to the Henry Schein Animal Health Business.

On the Distribution Date, we received a tax-free distribution of $ 1,120 million from Covetrus pursuant to certain debt financing incurred by Covetrus.

On the Distribution Date and prior to the Animal Health Spin-off, Covetrus issued shares of Covetrus common stock to certain institutional accredited investors (the “Share Sale Investors”) for $ 361.1 million (the “Share Sale”).

The proceeds of the Share Sale were paid to Covetrus and distributed to us.

Subsequent to the Share Sale, we distributed, on a pro rata basis, all of the shares of the common stock of Covetrus held by us to our stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 17, 2019 (the “Animal Health Spin-off”).

After the Share Sale and Animal Health Spin-off, Merger Sub consummated the Merger whereby it merged with and into Vets First Choice, with Vets First Choice surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Covetrus.

Immediately following the consummation of the Merger, on a fully diluted basis, (i) approximately 63 % of the shares of Covetrus common stock were (a) owned by our stockholders and the Share Sale Investors, and (b) held by certain employees of the Henry Schein Animal Health Business (in the form of certain equity awards), and (ii) approximately 37 % of the shares of Covetrus common stock were (a) owned by stockholders of Vets First Choice immediately prior to the Merger, and (b) held by certain employees of Vets First Choice (in the form of certain equity awards).

After the Separation and the Merger, we no longer beneficially owned any shares of Covetrus common stock and, following the Distribution Date, will not consolidate the financial results of Covetrus for the purpose of our financial reporting.

Following the Separation and the Merger, Covetrus was an independent, publicly traded company on the Nasdaq Global Select Market.

In connection with the completion of the Animal Health Spin-off, we entered into a transition services agreement, which ended in December 2020, with Covetrus under which we agreed to provide certain transition services for up to twenty-four months in areas such as information technology, finance and accounting, human resources, supply chain, and real estate and facility services.

As a result of the Separation, the financial position and results of operations of the Henry Schein Animal Health Business are presented as discontinued operations and have been excluded from continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented.

Note 20 – Plans of Restructuring

On November 20, 2019, we committed to a contemplated restructuring initiative intended to mitigate stranded costs associated with the Animal Health Spin-off and to rationalize operations and to provide expense efficiencies.

These activities were originally expected to be completed by the end of 2020.

In light of the changes to the business environment brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, we extended such activities to the end of 2021.

During the years ended December 25, 2021, December 26, 2020, and December 28, 2019 we recorded restructuring charges of $ 7.9 million, $ 32.1 million and $ 14.7 million, respectively.

The restructuring costs for these periods included costs for severance benefits and facility exit costs.

The costs associated with these restructurings are included in a separate line item, “Restructuring costs” within our consolidated statements of income.

Our restructuring activities under this initiative are now complete and we do not expect to report any restructuring costs separately in 2022.
