`
`

`

`Fellow Shareholders,
`
`I continue to view Bausch Health as the turnaround opportunity
`of a lifetime. The Company made considerable progress in
`2018, and we are still gaining momentum, which we believe
`will carry over into 2019 and beyond.
`
`In the past two years, we'Ve completed a number of divestitures
`to streamline operations, continued to pay down debt, resolved
`numerous key legacy issues, launched new products and
`realigned into four reporting segments.
`
`We also changed our name to Bausch Health Companies Inc.,
`which is a logical step in our transformation. We consider
`Bausch Health to be a new company-one that develops,
`manufactures and markets a wide range of pharmaceutical,
`medical device and over-the-counter products, primarily in
`the therapeutic areas of eye health, gastroenterology and
`dermatology. The Bausch Health name not only reflects a
`long-standing dedication to innovation, but also evokes our
`mission of improving the lives of patients with our health
`care products.
`
`We see 2019 as a year of growth and a strategic pivot to
`offense-driven by several important new products, as well
`as debt paydown and bolt-on opportunities to enhance our
`core businesses. Looking back at 2018, there were several
`major factors that contributed to our transformation.
`
`Executing on our core businesses
`
`Our two largest reporting segments continued to drive our
`performance: Bausch + Lomb/International, which represented
`approximately 56% of the Company's total revenues in
`2018, and Salix, which represented approximately 21% of
`the Company's total revenues in 2018.
`
`Bausch + Lomb is a fully integrated eye care business, with
`extensive product portfolios in Vision Care, Surgical, Prescription
`Ophthalmology and Consumer Health Care. Bausch + Lomb
`maintains a large global footprint with a major presence in
`such rapidly growing emerging markets as China, Japan and
`India. In 2018, our U.S. contact lens business outpaced the
`industry, with greater than 13% market growth1. Additionally,
`PreserVision., and Ocuvite• combined are the No. 1 brands
`and No. 1 drivers of growth in the eye vitamin category.
`
`Growth within our Salix gastroenterology business comes
`primarily from several key brands. The past year saw
`impressive revenue growth for XIFAXAN" (22%), RELISTOR"
`(37%) and APRISO'" (13%). XIFAXAN., notably had a marked
`increase in new prescriptions written by primary care
`physicians as our 2017 investment into building a primary
`care sales team has continued to yield strong results.
`
`In March 2019, we acquired certain assets of Synergy
`Pharmaceuticals Inc., a biopharmaceutical company
`focused on gastrointestinal therapies. Synergy's flagship
`product, TRULANCE.,, is approved for adults with chronic
`
`idiopathic constipation and irritable bowel syndrome with
`constipation. The acquisition of the assets of Synergy will
`enhance our Salix business. We believe TRULANCE., is a natural
`complement to XIFAXAN'" and, with the scale and strength of
`our sales footprint in GI and primary care, our Salix team will
`be able to offer physicians and patients multiple treatment
`options that span the types of irritable bowel syndrome.
`
`The Ortho Dermatologies business continues to stabilize as
`we remain committed to investing in new dermatology solu(cid:173)
`tions, including a continued focus on psoriasis, an area with
`a great unmet need. Today in the United States, there are
`approximately 7.5 million patients suffering from psoriasis,
`with as many as 260,000 new cases diagnosed each year.
`
`We recently moved Solta Medical, our global aesthetics
`business, into our Ortho Dermatologies segment, a shift we
`believe will enable us to better serve both our physician
`customers and patients. During 2018, Solta delivered
`exceptional growth compared to 2017.
`
`Launching new products
`
`Innovation remains critical to our future, and we anticipate
`our R&D investment to grow by approximately 10% in 2019
`versus 2018. Our focus on innovation has yielded a wide
`range of significant launches:
`
`• LUMIFY™ is the only over-the-counter eye drop with low-dose
`brimonidine for the treatment of eye redness. Since its launch
`in May 2018, LUMIFY'" has become the number one product in
`the redness reliever category with an approximately 28%
`market share•
`• In late 2017, we launched VYZULTA•, the first and only FDA-approved
`nitric oxide-releasing agent to lower intraocular pressure in patients
`with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. VYZULTA• is now available
`to a majority of commercial and Part D coverage plans and was
`approved in Canada in January 2019.
`• In September 2018, Bausch + Lomb launched AQUALOX'" daily(cid:173)
`disposable silicone hydrogel (SiHy) contact lenses in Japan.
`• To enhance our Salix business, we have engaged in multiple
`strategic partnerships that we believe will help drive long-term
`growth, including LUCEMYRA'" (our co-promotion arrangement
`with US WorldMeds, LLC), the first and only non-opioid medication
`indicated for mitigation of opioid withdrawal symptoms; DOPTELET(cid:173)
`(our co-promotion arrangement with Dova Pharmaceuticals),
`the first FDA-approved drug for thrombocytopenia in chronic
`liver disease patients scheduled to undergo a procedure; and
`PLENVU" (our license arrangement with Norgine B.V.). a next(cid:173)
`generation bowel cleansing preparation for colonoscopies.
`• In early 2018, we expanded our launch of SILIQ'", the lowest priced
`injectable biologic on the market for moderate-to-severe psoriasis.
`• Ortho Dermatologies launched BRYHALI'" Lotion, a potent to
`super-potent corticosteroid for the topical treatment of plaque
`psoriasis, in November 2018.
`• Ortho Dermatologies also launched two acne treatments in
`2018: RETIN-A MICRO• (in a new strength) and ALTRENO™.

`

`

`Additionally, Bausch + Lomb ULTRA"' Multifocal for Astigmatism
`contact lenses are expected to launch in mid-2019, along
`with an expansion of our Biotrue• ONEday daily disposable
`lens parameter offerings.
`
`We continue to be strategically focused on our pipeline by
`investing in innovation to bring new products to market,
`which in turn will enable us to continue to invest in our future.
`Some highlights include:
`
`• Loteprednol etabonate ophthalmic gel, 0.38% for ocular
`inflammation, approved by the FDA in late February 2019;
`• DU08Ril'"3, a topical lotion for the treatment of plaque psoriasis,
`for which we expect an FDA decision shortly.
`• Four late-stage dermatology candidates to treat acne and
`atopic dermatitis, including one we anticipate filing in 2019; and
`• Multiple clinical programs to expand the use of rifaximin to
`reach additional patient populations.
`Several products I've already mentioned also make up our
`Significant Seven, which are the key products we believe will
`collectively achieve more than $1 billion in annualized peak
`
`resolving litigation, disputes and investigations in some 68
`matters in 2018. Some key resolutions include the XIFAXAN"'
`intellectual property litigation, which we believe, preserves
`market exclusivity until 2028; the Securities and Exchange
`Commission's legacy investigation of Salix•, the Allergan
`securities litigation; and the outstanding arbitration with
`Alfasigma S.p.A., which has allowed us to continue our
`collaboration on new formulations for rifaximin.
`
`In 2018, we also established our Bausch Foundation, with the
`goal of improving the lives of patients by providing access to
`safe, effective medicines and financially supporting health care
`education and causes around the world. You will find additional
`information about the foundation elsewhere in this report.
`
`In closing, we anticipate further growth and improvements
`in operational efficiency, none of which would be possible
`without the contributions of our more than 21,000 talented
`and dedicated employees worldwide. We are proud that
`every day, more than 150 million people around the world
`use a Bausch Health product.
`
`Quality, innovation and new product launches remain critical to our
`future. Our investment in R&D reflects our commitment to drive
`growth through the internal development of new products.

`sales revenue by the end of 2022. The Significant Seven are
`AQUALOX'", BRYHALI'", DUOBRII'"3, LUMIFY'", RELISTOR"' (for
`opioid-induced constipation), SILIQ'" and VYZULTA". In 2019,
`revenue generated by the Significant Seven is expected to
`approximately double compared to 2018.
`
`Resolving legacy Issues and repaying our debt
`
`By the end of 2018, we reduced our debt by more than
`$7.6 billion since the first quarter of 2016. We executed on
`repaying more than $1 billion in debt with cash generated
`from operations in 2018. In addition to dramatically reduc(cid:173)
`ing the amount of our debt, we successfully extended our
`maturities, which have given us more flexibility to make
`strategic decisions, such as the capital investment in our
`Rochester, New York and Waterford, Ireland manufacturing
`sites to support the anticipated global demand for our
`SiHy daily contact lenses.
`
`Our legal team continues to make outstanding contribu(cid:173)

`While there is more work to do, we are now a very different
`company-a world-class organization well-positioned to
`return to growth.
`
`I'd like to commend all our employees, and our management
`team, who are making this transformation possible. Their
`hard work and commitment is essential to our success.
`
`I also want to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders,
`who believe in our Company, our strategy and our ability to
`execute. Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

`0 UR APPROACH TO
`CORPORATE SOCIAL
`RESPONSIBILITY
`
`As a global company dedicated to improving people's lives with our health care products, we take our commitment
`to corporate social responsibility (CSR) seriously. Every day-somewhere in the world-more than 150 million people
`use a Bausch Health product, while our 21,000 employees live and work in more than 100 countries around the world.
`This means Bausch Health has a big opportunity-and an even greater responsibility-to make a difference. We have
`framed our CSR work around five key commitment areas:
`
`Last year, Bausch Health published its inaugural Corporate Social Responsibility Report
`online at https://www.bauschhealth.com/Portals/25/PDF/BauschHealth-CSR-Report.pdf.
`It provides an introduction to our foundational work in each of these areas, featuring
`highlights of success stories from our operations around the globe. Beginning with the
`2019 CSR Report, we will be establishing and reporting consistently on key performance
`indicators within and across these areas.

`Caution regarding forward-looking information and statements and “Safe-Harbor” statements under the U.S. Private
`Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities laws:
`
`To the extent any statements made in this Form 10-K contain information that is not historical, these statements are
`forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of
`the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and may be forward-looking information within the meaning defined under
`applicable Canadian securities laws (collectively, “forward-looking statements”).
`
`These forward-looking statements relate to, among other things: our business strategy, business plans and prospects and
`forecasts and changes thereto; product pipeline, prospective products and product approvals, product development and
`future performance and results of current and anticipated products; anticipated revenues for our products, including the
`Significant Seven; anticipated growth in our Ortho Dermatologics business; expected R&D and marketing spend, including

`2019 and beyond; the Company’s plans for continued improvement in operational efficiency and the anticipated impact of
`such plans; our liquidity and our ability to satisfy our debt maturities as they become due; our ability to reduce debt levels;
`the impact of our distribution, fulfillment and other third-party arrangements; proposed pricing actions; exposure to foreign
`currency exchange rate changes and interest rate changes; the outcome of contingencies, such as litigation, subpoenas,
`investigations, reviews, audits and regulatory proceedings; the anticipated impact of the adoption of new accounting
`standards; general market conditions; our expectations regarding our financial performance, including revenues, expenses,
`gross margins and income taxes; our ability to meet the financial and other covenants contained in our Fourth Amended and
`Restated Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”), and indentures; and our impairment
`assessments, including the assumptions used therein and the results thereof.
`
`Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”,
`“intend”, “estimate”, “plan”, “continue”, “will”, “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “target”, “potential”,
`“opportunity”, “designed”, “create”, “predict”, “project”, “forecast”, “seek”, “ongoing” or “increase” and variations or
`other similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, intentions, projections or other
`characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements may
`not be appropriate for other purposes. Although we have previously indicated certain of these statements set out herein, all of
`the statements in this Form 10-K that contain forward-looking statements are qualified by these cautionary statements. These
`statements are based upon the current expectations and beliefs of management. Although we believe that the expectations
`reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements involve risks and uncertainties, and undue
`reliance should not be placed on such statements. Certain material factors or assumptions are applied in making such
`forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, factors and assumptions regarding the items previously outlined,
`those factors, risks and uncertainties outlined below and the assumption that none of these factors, risks and uncertainties
`will cause actual results or events to differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements. Actual
`results may differ materially from those expressed or implied in such statements. Important factors, risks and uncertainties
`that could cause actual results to differ materially from these expectations include, among other things, the following:
`
`•
`

`

`relating to, among other matters, our past distribution, marketing, pricing, disclosure and accounting practices

`investigations by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the
`Southern District of New York, the pending investigations by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the
`“SEC”) of the Company, the investigation order issued by the Company from the Autorité des marchés financiers

`class action litigations in the U.S. (including related opt-out actions) and Canada (including related opt-out

`that may be initiated or that may be asserted;
`
`potential additional litigation and regulatory investigations (and any costs, expenses, use of resources, diversion of
`management time and efforts, liability and damages that may result therefrom), negative publicity and reputational
`harm on our Company, products and business that may result from the past and ongoing public scrutiny of our past
`distribution, marketing, pricing, disclosure and accounting practices and from our former relationship with
