INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2015

Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations: Invacare Corporation is a leading manufacturer and distributor of medical equipment used in the home based upon the Company’s distribution channels, breadth of product line and net sales. The Company designs, manufactures and distributes an extensive line of health care products for the non-acute care environment, including the home health care, retail and extended care markets.

Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries and include all adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2015, the results of its operations and changes in its cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Certain foreign subsidiaries, represented by the European segment, are consolidated using a May 31 quarter end in order to meet filing deadlines. No material subsequent events have occurred related to the European segment, which would require disclosure or adjustment to the Company's financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates: The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08 changing the presentation of discontinued operations on the statements of income and other requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the new standard, a disposal of a component or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when the component meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or is disposed. The amendments in this update also require additional disclosures about discontinued operations and disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations. This standard must be prospectively applied to all reporting periods presented in financial reports issued after the effective date. Early adoption was permitted for disposals that were not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The new accounting guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. This standard can impact the presentation of the Company's financial statements but will not affect the calculation of net income, comprehensive income or earnings per share. The Company adopted ASU 2014-08 effective January 1, 2015 which impacted the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Balance Sheets and Statement of Cash Flows. Specifically, the disposal of the United States rentals businesses were not deemed to be a discontinued operation.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 requires a company to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. The guidance requires five steps to be applied: 1) identify the contract(s) with customers, 2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocated the transaction price to the performance obligation in the contract and 5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The guidance also requires both quantitative and qualitative disclosures, which are more comprehensive than existing revenue standards. The disclosures are intended to enable financial statement users to understand the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue and the related cash flow. An entity can apply the new revenue standard retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recognized at the date of initial application in retained earnings. The new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, due to an approved one-year deferral, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the Company's financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs to be presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, which is similar presentation of debt discounts or premiums. Debt issuance costs are currently reported on the balance sheet as assets and amortized as interest expense. ASU 2015-03 does not change the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs and requires retrospective application to all periods presented upon adoption. The new accounting guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-03 on the Company's financial statements.

Operations Held For Sale

On May 14, 2015, the Company's board of directors approved for the Company and Invacare Continuing Care, Inc., a Missouri Corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("ICC") to enter into an agreement to sell all the issued and outstanding membership interests of Dynamic Medical Systems, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and Invacare Outcomes Management, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, each a wholly-owned subsidiary of ICC (“collectively the Rental Subsidiaries”). The Company determined on that date that the "held for sale" criteria of ASC 360-10-45-9 were met and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the Rental Subsidiaries (long-lived asset disposal group) are shown at their carrying amounts which approximate their fair values. The Rentals Subsidiaries had been operated on a stand-alone basis and reported as part of the Institutional Products Group (IPG) segment of the Company.

On July 2, 2015, ICC completed the sale (the "Transaction") of all the issued and outstanding membership interests in the Rental Subsidiaries, pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, ICC and Joerns Healthcare Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The price paid to ICC for the Rental Subsidiaries was approximately $15,500,000 in cash, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments required by the Purchase Agreement. The Company estimates net proceeds from the Transaction are approximately $13,700,000, net of taxes and expenses. The Company expects to record a loss of approximately $46,000 pre-tax in the third quarter of 2015, which represents the excess of the book value of the assets and liabilities of the Rental Subsidiaries, as of the date of completion of the disposition, over the net sales price. The sale of the Rental Subsidiaries is not expected to be dilutive to the Company's results. The Company utilized the proceeds from the sale to reduce debt outstanding under its credit agreement. The Company determined that the sale of the Rental Subsidiaries did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASU 2014-08.

The assets and liabilities of the Rental Subsidiaries that were sold are shown as held for sale in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and are comprised of the following (in thousands):

Discontinued Operations

On August 29, 2014, the Company sold Altimate Medical, Inc. (Altimate), its manufacturer of stationary standing assistive devices for use in patient rehabilitation, to REP Acquisition Corporation for $23,000,000 in cash, which was subject to final post-closing adjustments. Altimate had been operated on a stand-alone basis and reported as part of the North America/HME segment of the Company. The Company recorded a gain of $17,069,000 pre-tax in the third quarter of 2014, which represented the excess of the net sales price over the book value of the assets and liabilities of Altimate. The sale of this business was dilutive to the Company's results. The Company utilized the proceeds from the sale to reduce debt outstanding under its revolving credit facility in the third quarter of 2014. The gain recorded by the Company reflects the Company's estimated final purchase adjustments.

The assets and liabilities of Altimate were the following as of the date of the sale, August 29, 2014, (in thousands):



	August 29, 2014
Trade receivables, net	$	2,019
Inventories, net	1,954
Other current assets	246
Property and Equipment, net	176
Other Intangibles	1,047
Assets sold	$	5,442

Accounts payable	$	425
Accrued expenses	316
Liabilities sold	$	741

The net sales and earnings before income taxes of the Altimate discontinued operations were $8,937,000 and $2,162,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Results for Altimate include an interest expense allocation from continuing operations to discontinued operations of $150,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as proceeds from the sale were required to be utilized to pay down debt. The interest allocation was based on the net proceeds assumed to pay down debt applying the Company's average interest rates for the periods presented. The Company recorded an incremental intra-period tax allocation expense to discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 representing the cumulative intra-period allocation expense to discontinued operations based on the Company's June 30, 2014 estimates of the projected domestic taxable loss related to continuing operations for 2014.

The Company recorded cumulative expenses related to the sale of discontinued operations, including Altimate, totaling $8,401,000, of which $8,006,000 have been paid as of June 30, 2015. The gain shown on the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was the result of an adjustment to the originally recorded estimated expenses related to discontinued operations.

The Company has classified Altimate as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.

Receivables

Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may become uncollectible in the future. Substantially all of the Company’s receivables are due from health care, medical equipment providers and long term care facilities located throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, China and Europe. A significant portion of products sold to providers, both foreign and domestic, are ultimately funded through government reimbursement programs such as Medicare and Medicaid in the U.S. As a consequence, changes in these programs can have an adverse impact on dealer liquidity and profitability. The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts ($11,349,000 at June 30, 2015 and $11,970,000 at December 31, 2014) is based primarily on management’s evaluation of the financial condition of specific customers. In addition, as a result of the financing arrangement with De Lage Landen, Inc. ("DLL"), a third party financing company which the Company has worked with since 2000, management monitors the collection status of these contracts in accordance with the Company’s limited recourse obligations and provides amounts necessary for estimated losses in the allowance for doubtful accounts and establishing reserves for specific customers as needed. The Company charges off uncollectible trade accounts receivable after such receivables are moved to collection status and legal remedies are exhausted. See Concentration of Credit Risk in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the financing arrangement. Long-term installment receivables are included in “Other Assets” on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company’s U.S. customers electing to finance their purchases can do so using DLL. In addition, the Company often provides financing directly for its Canadian customers for which DLL is not an option, as DLL typically provides financing to Canadian customers only on a limited basis. The installment receivables recorded on the books of the Company represent a single portfolio segment of finance receivables to the independent provider channel and long-term care customers. The portfolio segment is comprised of two classes of receivables distinguished by geography and credit quality. The U.S. installment receivables are the

FS-6

Table of Contents

INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2015

first class and represent installment receivables re-purchased from DLL because the customers were in default. Default with DLL is defined as a customer being delinquent by three payments. The Canadian installment receivables represent the second class of installment receivables which were originally financed by the Company because third party financing was not available to the HME providers. The Canadian installment receivables are typically financed for twelve months and historically have had a very low risk of default.

The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts and evaluation for impairment for both classes of installment receivables is based on the Company’s quarterly review of the financial condition of each individual customer with the allowance for doubtful accounts adjusted accordingly. Installments are individually and not collectively reviewed for impairment. The Company assesses the bad debt reserve levels based upon the status of the customer’s adherence to a contractually agreed-upon payment schedule and the Company’s ability to enforce judgments, liens, etc.

For purposes of granting or extending credit, the Company utilizes a scoring model to generate a composite score that considers each customer’s consumer credit score and/or D&B credit rating, payment history, security collateral and time in business. Additional analysis is performed for customers desiring credit greater than $250,000, which generally includes a detailed review of the customer’s financials as well as consideration of other factors such as exposure to changing reimbursement laws.

Interest income is recognized on installment receivables based on the terms of the installment agreements. Installment accounts are monitored and if a customer defaults on payments and is moved to collection, interest income is no longer recognized. Subsequent payments received once an account is put on non-accrual status are generally first applied to the principal balance and then to the interest. Accruing of interest on collection accounts would only be restarted if the account became current again. All installment accounts are accounted for using the same methodology regardless of the duration of the installment agreements. When an account is placed in collection status, the Company initiates a legal process for pursuing collection of outstanding amounts, the length of which typically approximates eighteen months. Any write-offs are made after the legal process has been completed. The Company has not made any changes to either its accounting policies or methodology to estimation allowances for doubtful accounts in the last twelve months.

Installment receivables consist of the following (in thousands):

During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company entered into a real estate sale leaseback transaction which resulted in Land, buildings and improvements being decreased by $15,843,000 for assets sold and increased by $32,339,000 as a result of recording capitalized lease assets. As of June 30, 2015, accumulated depreciation related to the capitalized leases totaled $269,000 as of June 30, 2015.

Goodwill

The goodwill decrease reflected on the balance sheet from December 31, 2014 to June 30, 2015 was due to foreign currency translation.

Intangibles

All of the Company’s intangible assets have been assigned definite lives and continue to be amortized over their useful lives, except for $25,613,000 related to trademarks, which have indefinite lives. The changes in intangible balances reflected on the balance sheet from December 31, 2014 to June 30, 2015 were the result of foreign currency translation and amortization.

The Company evaluates the carrying value of definite-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate possible impairment. Definite-lived assets are determined to be impaired if the future un-discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are less than the carrying value. Actual impairment amounts for definite-lived assets are then calculated using a discounted cash flow calculation. The Company reviews indefinite-lived assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate possible impairment. Any impairment amounts for indefinite-lived assets are calculated as the difference between the future discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset less than the carrying value for the asset. The Company's intangibles consist of the following (in thousands):



	June 30, 2015				December 31, 2014
	Historical Cost		Accumulated Amortization		Historical Cost		Accumulated Amortization

intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over remaining lives of 1 to 10 years with the majority of the intangibles being amortized over an average remaining life of approximately 5 years.

Current Liabilities

Accrued expenses consist of accruals for the following (in thousands):



	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014

Other items, principally trade accruals	13,546		9,911
	$	133,695	$	155,699

Accrued rebates relate to several volume incentive programs the Company offers its customers. The Company accounts for these rebates as a reduction of revenue when the products are sold in accordance with the guidance in ASC 605-50, Customer Payments and Incentives.

As a result of the retirement of certain executives of the Company during 2015, SERP and deferred compensation payments of $9,953,000 and $1,013,000, respectively, were made during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Furthermore, based on the retirement agreements for the same executives, the Company estimates SERP and deferred compensation payments of $11,173,000 and $2,512,000, respectively, will be made by the end of the third quarter of 2015.

Generally, the Company's products are covered by warranties against defects in material and workmanship for various periods depending on the product from the date of sales to the customer. Certain components carry a lifetime warranty. A provision for estimated warranty cost is recorded at the time of sale based upon actual experience. The Company continuously assesses the adequacy of its product warranty accrual and makes adjustments as needed. Historical analysis is primarily used to determine the Company's warranty reserves. Claims history is reviewed and provisions are adjusted as needed. However, the Company does consider other events, such as a product field action and recalls, which could warrant additional warranty reserve provision.

In 2014, the Company recorded additional warranty expense for product recalls which related to a stationary oxygen concentrator, a sieve bed component used within stationary oxygen concentrators and power wheelchair joysticks. These warranty reserves are subject to adjustment in future periods as new developments change the Company's estimate of the total cost of these matters. However, no additional warranty expense was recorded related to these three recalls for the six months ended June 2015.

On January 16, 2015, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which provides for an asset-based-lending senior secured revolving credit facility that matures in January 2018. The Credit Agreement was entered into by and among the Company, certain of the Company’s direct and indirect domestic and Canadian subsidiaries (together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), certain other of the Company’s direct and indirect domestic and Canadian subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), and PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., KeyBank National Association, and Citizens Bank, National Association (the “Lenders”). PNC is the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement (the “Administrative Agent”). The credit facility under its Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s domestic and Canadian assets, other than real estate.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants; however it does not contain financial covenants that would require the Company to not exceed a maximum leverage ratio or to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio similar to those under the Company’s prior credit agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides the Company and the other Borrowers with a credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000,000, subject to availability based on a borrowing base formula, under a senior secured revolving credit, letter of credit and swing line loan facility (the “Credit Facility”). Up to $25,000,000 of the Credit Facility will be available for issuance of letters of credit, which amount is subject to an initial $10,000,000 sublimit under the terms of the Credit Agreement. The aggregate principal amount of the Credit Facility may be increased by up to $25,000,000 to the extent requested by the Company and agreed to by any Lender or new financial institution approved by the Administrative Agent. The aggregate borrowing availability under the Credit Facility is determined based on a borrowing base formula set forth in the Credit Agreement and summarized below.

Under the Credit Agreement, the aggregate usage under the Credit Facility may not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (a) 85% of eligible U.S. accounts receivable plus (b) the lesser of (i) 70% of eligible U.S. inventory and eligible foreign in-transit inventory and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible domestic inventory and eligible foreign in-transit inventory (not to exceed $4,000,000), plus (c) the lesser of (i) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of domestic eligible machinery and equipment and (ii) $2,924,000 (subject to reduction as provided in the Credit Agreement), plus (d) 85% of eligible Canadian accounts receivable, plus (e) the lesser of (i) 70% of eligible Canadian inventory and (ii) 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible Canadian inventory, less (f) swing loans outstanding under the Credit Facility, less (g) letters of credit issued and undrawn under the Credit Facility, less (h) a $10,000,000 minimum availability reserve, less (i) other reserves required by the Administrative Agent, and in each case subject to the definitions and limitations in the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2015,

the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements. The Company had borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement of $46,929,000 as of June 30, 2015.

Interest will accrue on outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement at the LIBOR rate, plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 2.75%, or at the alternate base rate, plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75%, as selected by the Company. The margin that will apply for the first six months of the Credit Facility is 2.75% for LIBOR rate loans and 1.75% for alternate base rate (Prime) loans, and after the first six months will be adjusted quarterly based on utilization. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to commitment fees of 0.25% or 0.375% per year, depending on utilization. As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average floating interest rate on revolving credit borrowings was 4.15% compared to 2.25% as of December 31, 2014.

Exceptions to the operating covenants in the Credit Agreement provide the Company with flexibility to, among other things, enter into or undertake certain sale and leaseback transactions, dispositions of assets, additional credit facilities, sales of receivables, additional indebtedness and intercompany indebtedness, all subject to limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement also contains a covenant requiring the Company to maintain minimum availability under the Credit Facility of not less than (i) 11.25% of the maximum amount that may be drawn under the Credit Facility for five (5) consecutive business days, or (ii) $10,000,000 on any business day.

The Credit Agreement contains customary default provisions, with certain grace periods and exceptions, which provide that events of default that include, among other things, failure to pay amounts due, breach of covenants, representations or warranties, bankruptcy, the occurrence of a material adverse effect, exclusion from any medical reimbursement program, and an interruption of any material manufacturing facilities for more than 10 consecutive days.

The proceeds of the Credit Facility were used to repay and terminate the Company’s prior credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in October 2015.

The Credit Agreement was amended on April 22, 2015 to provide for certain technical amendments, including: (1) revising various provisions of the Credit Agreement to allow the Company to issue letters of credit denominated in foreign currencies other than those originally contemplated under the Credit Agreement; and (2) amending certain covenants in the Credit Agreement to permit the Company (i) to make a single acquisition of assets of a third-party for cash consideration not to exceed $500,000 on or before September 30, 2015 and (ii) to accept surrenders of Company shares by employees to facilitate the payment of tax withholding obligations in connection with employee equity compensation.

In connection with entering into the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred $1,391,000 in fees which were capitalized and are being amortized through January 2018. In addition, as a result of terminating the prior credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in October 2015, the Company wrote-off $668,000 in previously capitalized fees in the first quarter of 2015, which is reflected in the expense of the North America / HME segment. In comparison, the Company wrote-off $1,070,000 in fees previously capitalized in the first quarter of 2014 as a result of a reduction in the borrowing capacity under the Company's prior credit agreement.

On April 23, 2015, the Company sold and leased back, under four separate lease agreements, four properties located in Ohio and one property in Florida for net proceeds of $23,000,000, which were used to reduce debt under the Credit Facility. The total annual rent for the properties will be $2,275,000 for the first year, which can increase annually over the twenty year term of the leases based on the applicable geographical consumer price index (CPI). Each of the four lease agreements contains three 10-year renewals with the rent for each option term based on the then greater of the fair market rent for each property or the then current rate and increasing annually by the applicable CPI. Under the terms of the lease agreements, the Company is responsible for all taxes, insurance and utilities. The Company is permitted to sublet the properties; however, the properties are currently being utilized exclusively by the Company and there is no current subletting. The Company is required to adequately maintain each of the properties and any leasehold improvements will be amortized over the lesser of the lives of the improvements or the remaining lease lives.

In connection with the transaction, the requirements for sale lease-back accounting were met. Accordingly, the Company recorded the sale of the properties, removed the related property and equipment from the Company's balance sheet, recognized an initial deferred gain of $7,414,000 and an immediate loss of $257,000 related to one property and recorded new lease liabilities. Specifically, the Company recorded four capital leases totaling $32,339,000 and one operating lease related to leased land, which was not a material component of the transaction. The gains on the sales of the properties are required to be deferred and recognized

In 2007, the Company issued $135,000,000 principal amount of Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027, of which $$13,350,000 principal amount remains outstanding. The debentures are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the Company guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, pay interest at 4.125% per annum on each February 1 and August 1, and are convertible upon satisfaction of certain conditions into cash, common shares of the Company, or a combination of cash and common shares of the Company, subject to certain conditions. The debentures allow the Company to satisfy any such conversion using any combination of cash or stock, and at the Company’s discretion. In the event of such a conversion, the Company intends to satisfy the accreted value of the debentures using cash. Assuming adequate cash on hand at the time of conversion, the Company also intends to satisfy the conversion spread using cash, as opposed to stock.

Equity Compensation

On May 16, 2013, the shareholders of the Company approved the Invacare Corporation 2013 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2013 Plan”), which was adopted on March 27, 2013 by the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Board adopted the 2013 Plan to replace the Company's prior equity plan, the Invacare Corporation Amended and Restated 2003 Performance Plan (the “2003 Plan”), which expired on May 21, 2013. Due to its expiration, no new awards may be granted under the 2003 Plan; however, awards granted prior to its expiration will remain in effect under their original terms.

The 2013 Plan uses a fungible share-counting method, under which each common share underlying an award of stock options or stock appreciation rights (“SAR”) will count against the number of total shares available under the 2013 Plan as one share; and each common share underlying any award other than a stock option or a SAR will count against the number of total shares available under the 2013 Plan as two shares. Any common shares that are added back to the 2013 Plan as the result of the cancellation or forfeiture of an award granted under the 2013 Plan will be added back in the same manner such shares were originally counted against the total number of shares available under the 2013 Plan. Each common share that is added back to the 2013 Plan due to a cancellation or forfeiture of an award granted under the 2003 Plan will be added back as one common share.

The Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”), in its discretion, may grant an award under the 2013 Plan to any director or employee of the Company or an affiliate. The 2013 Plan initially allows the Compensation Committee to grant up to 4,460,337 common shares in connection with the following types of awards with respect to shares of the Company's common shares: incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, SARs, restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock and performance shares. The Compensation Committee also may grant performance units that are payable in cash. The Committee has the authority to determine which participants will receive awards, the amount of the awards and the other terms and conditions of the awards.

The 2013 Plan provides that shares granted come from the Company's authorized but unissued common shares or treasury shares. In addition, the Company's stock-based compensation plans allow employee participants to exchange shares for minimum withholding taxes, which results in the Company acquiring treasury shares.

The amounts of equity-based compensation expense recognized as part of selling, general and administrative expenses were as follows (in thousands):



	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
	2015		2014
Non-Qualified stock options	$	432	$	1,356
Restricted stock and restricted stock units	1,318		867
Performance shares and performance share units	157		247
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	1,907	$	2,470

As of June 30, 2015, unrecognized compensation expense related to equity-based compensation arrangements granted under the Company's 2013 Plan and previous plans, which is related to non-vested options and shares, was as follows (in thousands):



	June 30, 2015
Non-Qualified stock options	$	1,457
Restricted stock and restricted stock units	10,840
Performance shares and performance share units	1,753
Total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense	$	14,050

Total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for future changes in actual and estimated forfeitures and for updated vesting assumptions for the performance share awards (see "Performance Shares and Performance Share Units" below). No tax benefit for share-based compensation was realized for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 as a result of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. In accordance with ASC 718, any tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation expense recognized is classified as a component of financing cash flows.

Stock Options

Generally, non-qualified stock option awards typically have a term of ten years and are granted at the fair market value of the Company’s Common Shares on the date of grant. The Company expects the compensation expense to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2 years. The following table summarizes information about stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2015:



	June 30, 2015			Weighted Average Exercise Price
Options outstanding at January 1, 2015	3,600,132			$	22.74

Options exercisable at June 30, 2015	2,911,536
Shares available for grant at June 30, 2015*	2,646,216

________________________


*	Shares available for grant as of June 30, 2015 reduced by net restricted stock and restricted stock unit award and performance share and performance share unit award activity of 1,120,086 shares and 685,058 shares, respectively during the quarter.

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at June 30, 2015:



	Options Outstanding				Options Exercisable
Exercise Prices	Number Outstanding At 6/30/15	Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number Exercisable At 6/30/15	Weighted Average Exercise Price

When stock options have been awarded, they generally have been exercisable over a four-year vesting period whereby options vest in equal installments each year. Options granted with graded vesting are accounted for as single options. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected life. The assumed expected life is based on the Company's historical analysis of option history. The expected stock price volatility is also based on actual historical volatility, and expected dividend yield is based on historical dividends as the Company has no current intention of changing its dividend policy.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units

The following table summarizes information about restricted shares and restricted share units (for non-U.S. recipients):



	June 30, 2015		Weighted Average Fair Value
Stock / Units unvested at January 1, 2015	312,423		$	17.91
Granted	449,712		19.02
Vested	(18,700	)	14.53
Canceled	(62,981	)	17.65
Stock / Units unvested at June 30, 2015	680,454		$	18.77

The restricted stock awards generally vest ratably over the three years after the award date, except for those awards granted in 2014, which vest after a three-year period. Unearned restricted stock compensation, determined as the market value of the shares at the date of grant, is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Performance Shares and Performance Share Units

The following table summarizes information about performance shares and performance share units (for non-U.S. recipients):



	June 30, 2015		Weighted Average Fair Value
Shares / Units unvested at January 1, 2015	121,644		$	20.05
Granted	114,257		18.95
Vested	—		—
Canceled	(33,500	)	19.59
Shares / Units unvested at June 30, 2015	202,401		$	19.51

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, performance shares and performance share units (for non-U.S. recipients) were granted as performance awards with a 3 year performance period with payouts based on achievement of certain performance goals. The awards are classified as equity awards as they will be settled in common shares upon vesting. The number of shares earned will be determined at the end of the performance period based on achievement of performance criteria for January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017 established by the Compensation Committee at the time of grant. Recipients will be entitled to receive a number of common shares equal to the number of performance shares that vest based upon the levels of achievement which may range between 0% and 150% of the target number of shares with the target being 100% of the initial grant.

The fair value of the performance awards is based on the stock price on the date of grant discounted for the estimated value of dividends foregone as the awards are not eligible for dividends except to the extent vested. The Company assesses the probability that the performance targets will be met with expense recognized whenever it is probable that at least the minimum performance criteria will be achieved. Depending upon the Company's assessment of the probability of achievement of the goals, the Company may not recognize any expense associated with performance awards in a given period, may reverse prior expense recorded or record additional expense to make up for expense not recorded in a prior period. Performance award compensation expense is generally expected to be recognized over 3 years.

Charges Related to Restructuring Activities

The Company's restructuring charges recorded since 2011 were necessitated primarily by continued declines in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement by the U.S. government, as well as similar healthcare reimbursement pressures abroad, which negatively affect the Company's customers (e.g. home health care providers) and continued pricing pressures faced by the Company as a result of outsourcing by competitors to lower cost locations. In addition, restructuring decisions were also the result of reduced profitability in the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific segments. While the Company's restructuring efforts have been executed on a timely basis resulting in operating cost savings, the savings have been more than offset by continued margin decline, principally as a result of product mix, reduced volumes and regulatory and compliance costs related to quality system improvements which are unrelated to the restructuring actions. The Company expects any near-term cost savings from restructuring will be offset by other costs as a result of pressures on the business.

The Company's restructuring commenced in the second quarter of 2011 with the Company's decision to close the Hong, Denmark assembly facility as part of the Company's ongoing globalization initiative to reduce complexity in the Company's supply chain, which is intended to reduce expenses to help offset pricing pressures. In the third quarter of 2011, the Company continued to execute on the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility and initiated the closure of a smaller facility in the U.S. Charges for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 were primarily incurred at the Company's corporate headquarters for severance, with additional costs incurred as a result of the closure of the Hong, Denmark facility. The facility closures were completed in 2012 in addition to the elimination of various positions principally in the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific segments.

Charges for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $10,534,000 including charges for severance ($8,352,000), contract exit costs primarily related to the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility ($1,788,000) and inventory write-offs ($277,000) recorded in cost of products sold and other miscellaneous costs ($117,000). The majority of the 2011 North America/HME charges were incurred for severance, primarily at the corporate headquarters as the result of the elimination of various positions principally in sales and administration in Elyria, Ohio. These eliminations were permanent reductions in workforce that primarily resulted in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses. In Europe, the charges were the result of the closure of the Company's Hong, Denmark facility. The assembly activities were transferred to other Company facilities or outsourced to third parties. This closure enabled the Company to reduce fixed operating costs related to the facility and reduce headcount with the transfer of a portion of the production to other Company facilities. The 2011 charges have been fully paid/utilized and were funded with operating cash flows.

Charges for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $11,395,000 including charges for severance ($6,775,000), lease termination costs ($1,725,000), building and asset write-downs, primarily related to the closure of the Hong, Denmark assembly facility, and other miscellaneous charges in Europe and Asia/Pacific ($2,404,000) and inventory write-offs ($491,000) in Asia/Pacific recorded in cost of products sold. Severance charges were primarily incurred in the North America/HME segment ($4,242,000), Asia/Pacific segment ($1,681,000) and Europe segment ($817,000). In addition, a portion of the North America/HME segment severance was related to positions eliminated, principally in sales and marketing as well as manufacturing, at the Company's Taylor Street facility as a result of the FDA consent decree. The savings from these charges were reflected primarily in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses and manufacturing expenses for the Company. In Europe, positions were eliminated as a result of finalizing the exit from the manufacturing facility in Denmark and an elimination of a senior management position in Switzerland. In Asia/Pacific, at the end of October 2012, the Company's management approved a plan to restructure the Company's operations in this segment. In Australia, the Company consolidated offices / warehouses, decreased staffing and exited various activities while returning to a focus on distribution. At the Company's subsidiary, which produces microprocessor controllers, the Company decided to cease the contract manufacturing business for companies outside of the healthcare industry. Payments for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $9,381,000 and were funded with operating cash flows. The 2012 charges have been fully paid.

Charges for the year ended December 31, 2013 totaled $9,336,000 including charges for severance ($8,282,000), lease termination costs ($698,000) and other miscellaneous charges principally in North America/HME ($356,000). Severance charges were primarily incurred in the North America/HME segment ($5,405,000), Europe segment ($1,640,000) and Asia/Pacific segment ($970,000). The charges were incurred as a result of the elimination of various positions as part of the Company's globalization initiatives. North America/HME segment severance was principally related to positions eliminated due to lost sales volumes resulting from the impact of the FDA consent decree. The savings from these charges were reflected primarily in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses and manufacturing expenses for the Company. In Europe, severance was incurred for the elimination of certain sales and supply chain positions. In Asia/Pacific, severance was principally incurred at the Company's subsidiary, which produces microprocessor controllers, as a result of the Company's decision in 2012 to cease the contract manufacturing business for companies outside of the healthcare industry. The lease termination costs were principally related to Australia as a result of the restructuring announced in 2012. Payments for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $11,844,000 and were funded with operating cash flows and cash on hand. The 2013 charges have been fully paid.

Charges for the year ended December 31, 2014 totaled $11,112,000 including charges for severance ($9,841,000), other charges in IPG and Europe ($1,286,000) principally related to building write-downs, and lease termination cost reversals ($15,000). Severance charges were incurred in the North America/HME segment ($4,404,000), Other ($2,978,000), IPG segment ($1,163,000), Asia/Pacific segment ($769,000) and Europe segment ($527,000). The North America/HME segment severance was principally related to additional positions eliminated due to lost sales volumes resulting from the continued impact of the FDA consent decree. The Other severance related to the elimination of two senior corporate executive positions. IPG segment severance related principally to the closure of the London, Canada facility. Europe and Asia/Pacific severance related to the elimination of certain positions as a result of general restructuring efforts. The savings from these charges will be reflected primarily in reduced selling, general and administrative expenses and manufacturing expenses for the Company. Payments for the year ended December 31, 2014 were $11,131,000 and were funded with operating cash flows and cash on hand. The majority of the 2014 charges are expected to be paid within the next twelve months.

Restructuring charges continued in 2015 resulting in charges of $929,000 in the first six months of 2015 related principally to severance costs ($928,000) incurred primarily in the North America/HME segment ($690,000) and to a lesser extent the Europe segment ($160,000). Restructuring payments/utilization for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $2,465,000 and the cash payments were funded with the Company's credit facility. The majority of the outstanding restructuring charge accruals at June 30, 2015 are expected to be paid during the next twelve months.

There have been no material changes in accrued balances related to the charges, either as a result of revisions in the plans or changes in estimates. In addition, the savings anticipated as a result of the Company's restructuring plans have been or are expected to be achieved, primarily resulting in reduced salary and benefit costs principally impacting Selling, General and Administrative expenses, and to a lesser extent, Costs of Products Sold. However, in general, these savings have been more than offset by continued margin decline, principally as a result of customer and product mix, and higher regulatory and compliance costs related to quality system improvements as well as reduced net sales volumes. To date, the Company's liquidity has not been materially impacted.

Income Taxes

The Company had an effective tax rate of 26.6% and 36.4% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was higher than the beneficial U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to the negative impact of the Company not being able to record tax benefits related to the significant losses in countries which had tax valuation allowances. The rate benefited by taxes recognized outside the United States, excluding countries with tax valuation allowances, at an effective rate lower than the U.S. statutory rate.

The Company had an effective tax rate of 24.8% and 17.2% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was higher than the beneficial U.S. federal statutory rate, principally due to the negative impact of the Company not being able to record tax benefits related to the significant losses in countries which had tax valuation allowances.

At June 30, 2015, 1,018,678 and 1,674,049 shares associated with stock options were excluded from the average common shares assuming dilution for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive. At June 30, 2015, the majority of the anti-dilutive shares were granted at an exercise price of $41.87, which was higher than the average fair market value prices of $21.18 and $19.28 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. At June 30, 2014, 3,578,173 and 3,172,393 shares associated with stock options were excluded from the average common shares assuming dilution for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as they were anti-dilutive. At June 30, 2014, the majority of the anti-dilutive shares were granted at an exercise price of $41.87, which was higher than the average fair market value prices of $16.98 and $18.74 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively, there were no shares necessary to settle a conversion spread on the convertible notes to be included in the common shares assuming dilution as the average market price of the Company stock for these periods did not exceed the conversion price.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company manufactures and distributes durable medical equipment to the home health care, retail and extended care markets. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. The Company utilizes De Lage Landen, Inc. (“DLL”), a third party financing company, to provide the majority of future lease financing to the Company’s North America customers. The DLL agreement provides for direct leasing between DLL and the Invacare customer. The Company retains a recourse obligation of $6,081,000 at June 30, 2015 to DLL for events of default under the contracts, which total $39,683,000 at June 30, 2015. Guarantees, ASC 460, requires the Company to record a guarantee liability as it relates to the limited recourse obligation. The Company's recourse is re-evaluated by DLL biannually, considers activity between the biannual dates and excludes any receivables repurchased by the Company from DLL. The Company monitors the collections status of these contracts and has provided amounts for estimated losses in its allowances for doubtful accounts in accordance with Receivables, ASC 310-10-05-4. Credit losses are provided for in the financial statements.

Substantially all of the Company’s receivables are due from health care, medical equipment providers and long term care facilities located throughout the United States, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and Europe. A significant portion of products sold to dealers, both foreign and domestic, is ultimately funded through government reimbursement programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. The Company has also seen a significant shift in reimbursement to customers from managed care entities. As a consequence, changes in these programs can have an adverse impact on dealer liquidity and profitability. In addition, reimbursement guidelines in the home health care industry have a substantial impact on the nature and type of equipment an end user can obtain as well as the timing of reimbursement and, thus, affect the product mix, pricing and payment patterns of the Company’s customers.

Derivatives

ASC 815 requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments in the consolidated balance sheet as either assets or liabilities at fair value. The accounting for changes in fair value of a derivative is dependent upon whether or not the derivative has been designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment and the type of hedging relationship. For derivatives designated and qualifying as hedging instruments, the Company must designate the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy

The Company uses derivative instruments in an attempt to manage its exposure to transactional foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk. Foreign forward exchange contracts are used to manage the price risk associated with forecasted sales denominated in foreign currencies and the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of inventory over the next twelve months. Interest rate swaps are, at times, utilized to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s fixed and floating-rate borrowings.

INVACARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) - June 30, 2015

The Company recognizes its derivative instruments as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet measured at fair value. A majority of the Company’s derivative instruments are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the fair value of the hedged item, if any, is recognized in current earnings during the period of change.

During a portion of 2014, the Company was a party to interest rate swap agreements that qualified as cash flow hedges and effectively converted floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt, so the Company could avoid the risk of changes in market interest rates. The gains or losses on interest rate swaps are reflected in interest expense on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss).

To protect against increases/decreases in forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from inventory purchases/sales over the next year, the Company utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge portions of its forecasted purchases/sales denominated in foreign currencies. The gains and losses are included in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss). If it is later determined that a hedged forecasted transaction is unlikely to occur, any prospective gains or losses on the forward contracts would be recognized in earnings. The Company does not expect any material amount of hedge ineffectiveness related to forward contract cash flow hedges during the next twelve months.

The Company has historically not recognized any material amount of ineffectiveness related to forward contract cash flow hedges because the Company generally limits its hedges to between 50% and 90% of total forecasted transactions for a given entity’s exposure to currency rate changes and the transactions hedged are recurring in nature. Furthermore, the majority of the hedged transactions are related to intercompany sales and purchases for which settlement occurs on a specific day each month. Forward contracts with a total notional amount in USD of $31,404,000 and $62,637,000 matured for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $41,504,000 and $75,127,000 which matured for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively.

Derivatives Not Qualifying or Designated for Hedge Accounting Treatment

The Company also utilizes foreign currency forward contracts that are not designated as hedges in accordance with ASC 815. These contracts are entered into to eliminate the risk associated with the settlement of short-term intercompany trading receivables and payables between Invacare Corporation and its foreign subsidiaries. The currency forward contracts are entered into at the same time as the intercompany receivables or payables are created so that upon settlement, the gain/loss on the settlement is offset by the gain/loss on the foreign currency forward contract. No material net gain or loss was realized by the Company in 2015 or 2014 related to these contracts and the associated short-term intercompany trading receivables and payables.

Foreign currency forward exchange contracts not qualifying or designated for hedge accounting treatment entered into in 2015 and 2014, respectively, and outstanding were as follows (in thousands USD):

A gain of $1,476,000 and a loss of $59,000 was recognized in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to a gain of $201,000 and a loss of $144,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, on ineffective forward contracts and forward contracts not designated as hedging instruments that were entered into to offset gains/losses that were also recorded in SG&A expenses on intercompany trade receivables or payables. Any gains/losses on the non-designated hedging instruments were substantially offset by gains/losses also recorded in SG&A expenses on intercompany trade payables.

The Company has entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts and, at times, interest rate swap contracts (the “agreements”) with various bank counterparties, each of which are subject to provisions which are similar to a master netting agreement. The agreements provide for a net settlement payment in a single currency upon a default by the Company. Furthermore, the agreements provide the counterparty with a right of set off in the event of a default that would enable the counterparty to offset any net payment due by the counterparty to the Company under the applicable agreement by any amount due by the Company to the counterparty under any other agreement. For example, the terms of the agreement would permit a counterparty to a derivative contract that is also a lender under the Company's Credit Agreement to reduce any derivative settlement amounts owed to the Company under the derivative contract by any amounts owed to the counterparty by the Company under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the agreements contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a default by the Company under the agreement in the event of a default by the Company under another agreement with the same counterparty. The Company does not present any derivatives on a net basis in its financial statements and all derivative balances presented are subject to provisions that are similar to master netting agreements.

Fair Values

Pursuant to ASC 820, the inputs used to derive the fair value of assets and liabilities are analyzed and assigned a level I, II or III priority, with level I being the highest and level III being the lowest in the hierarchy. Level I inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level II inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets: quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. Level III inputs are based on valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable. The following table provides a summary of the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured on a recurring basis (in thousands):



				Basis for Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date
				Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets / (Liabilities)	Significant Other Observable Inputs			Significant Other Unobservable Inputs

Forward Contracts: The Company operates internationally and as a result is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Specifically, the exposure includes intercompany loans and third party sales or payments. In an attempt to reduce this exposure, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized and accounted for as hedging instruments. The forward contracts are used to hedge the following currencies: AUD, CAD, CHF, CNY, DKK, EUR, GBP, MXP, NOK, NZD, SEK and USD. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Fair values for the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts are based on quoted market prices for contracts with similar maturities.

The Company, in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments, used the following methods and assumptions:

Cash, cash equivalents: The carrying value reported in the balance sheet for cash, cash equivalents equals its fair value.

Other investments: The Company has made other investments in limited partnerships and non-marketable equity securities, which are accounted for using the cost method, adjusted for any estimated declines in value. These investments were acquired in private placements and there are no quoted market prices or stated rates of return. The Company does not have the ability to easily sell these investments.

Installment receivables: The carrying value reported in the balance sheet for installment receivables approximates its fair value. The interest rates associated with these receivables have not varied significantly since inception. Management believes that after consideration of the credit risk, the net book value of the installment receivables approximates market value.

Long-term debt: Fair value for the Company’s convertible debt is based on quoted market-based estimates as of the end of the period, while the revolving credit facility fair value is based upon an estimate of the market for similar borrowing arrangements. The fair values are deemed to be categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Forward contracts: Fair values for the Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts are based on quoted market prices for contracts with similar maturities.

Business Segments

The Company operates in four primary business segments: North America/Home Medical Equipment (North America/HME), Institutional Products Group (IPG), Europe and Asia/Pacific. The North America/HME segment sells each of three primary product lines, which includes: lifestyle, mobility and seating and respiratory therapy products. IPG sells or rents long-term care medical equipment, health care furnishings and accessory products. Europe and Asia/Pacific sell product lines similar to North America/HME and IPG.

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes for each reportable segment. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies for the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intersegment sales and transfers are based on the costs to manufacture plus a reasonable profit element. Therefore, intercompany profit or loss on intersegment sales and transfers is not considered in evaluating segment performance except for Asia/Pacific due to its significant intercompany sales volume relative to the segment.

Contingencies

General

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits, primarily product liability actions in which various plaintiffs seek damages for injuries allegedly caused by defective products. All of the product liability lawsuits that the Company faces in the United States have been referred to the Company's captive insurance company and/or excess insurance carriers while all non-U.S. lawsuits have been referred to the Company's commercial insurance carriers. All such lawsuits are generally contested vigorously. The coverage territory of the Company's insurance is worldwide with the exception of those countries with respect to which, at the time the product is sold for use or at the time a claim is made, the U.S. government has suspended or prohibited diplomatic or trade relations. The amount recorded for identified contingent liabilities is based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures.

As a medical device manufacturer, the Company is subject to extensive government regulation, including numerous laws directed at preventing fraud and abuse and laws regulating reimbursement under various government programs. The marketing, invoicing, documenting and other practices of health care suppliers and manufacturers are all subject to government scrutiny. Most of the Company's facilities are subject to inspection by the FDA or similar medical device regulatory agencies in other jurisdictions at any time. Violations of law or regulations can result in administrative, civil and criminal penalties and sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business.

On November 15, 2013, an amended complaint, in a lawsuit originally instituted on May 24, 2013, was filed against Invacare Corporation, Gerald B. Blouch and A. Malachi Mixon III in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, alleging that the defendants violated federal securities laws by failing to properly disclose the issues that the Company has faced with the FDA. The lawsuit seeks class certification and unspecified damages and attorneys' fees for purchasers of the Company's common shares between February 27, 2009 and December 7, 2011. After mediation, the parties entered into an agreement to settle the matter, which agreement was preliminarily approved by the court on July 23, 2015 and which remains subject to final court approval. The settlement amount is expected to be entirely paid by the Company’s insurance carriers.

On September 12, 2014, a second amended complaint, in a lawsuit originally instituted on August 26, 2013, was filed against Invacare Corporation, Gerald B. Blouch, A. Malachi Mixon III and Patricia Stumpp, as well as outside directors Dale C. LaPorte, Michael F. Delaney and Charles S. Robb, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, alleging that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties and violated the Employment Retirement Security Act (ERISA) in the administration and maintenance of the Company stock fund in the Company’s Retirement Savings Plan (401(k) Plan). The lawsuit seeks class certification and unspecified damages and attorneys' fees for participants in the Company's stock fund of the 401(k) Plan between July 22, 2010 and the present. This lawsuit has been referred to the Company's insurance carriers. The Company intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.

Medical Device Regulatory Matters

The FDA in the United States regulates virtually all aspects of the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, promotion, distribution and marketing of a medical device. The Company and its products are subject to the laws and regulations of the FDA and other regulatory bodies in the various jurisdictions where the Company's products are manufactured or sold. The Company's failure to comply with the regulatory requirements of the FDA and other applicable medical device regulatory requirements can subject the Company to administrative or judicially imposed sanctions or enforcement actions. These sanctions include injunctions, consent decrees, warning letters, civil penalties, criminal penalties, product seizure or detention, product recalls and total or partial suspension of production.

Elyria, Ohio facilities. The Company is entitled to continue to produce from the Taylor Street manufacturing facility certain medically necessary wheelchairs provided that documentation and record-keeping requirements are followed, as well as ongoing replacement, service and repair of products already in use, under terms delineated in the consent decree. Under the terms of the consent decree, in order to resume full operations at the impacted facilities, the Company must successfully complete a third-party expert certification audit at the impacted Elyria facilities, which is comprised of three distinct reports that must be submitted to, and accepted by, the FDA. After the final certification report is submitted to the FDA, as well as the Company’s own report as to its compliance status together with its responses to any observations in the certification report, the FDA is expected to inspect the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities to determine whether they are in compliance with the Quality System Regulation (QSR) governing the manufacture of medical devices and the terms of the consent decree. If the FDA is satisfied with the Company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.

During 2013, the Company completed the first two of the expert certification audits, and the FDA found the results of both to be acceptable. In these reports, the third-party expert certified that the Company's equipment and process validation procedures and its design control systems are compliant with the FDA's QSR. As a result of the FDA's acceptance of the first certification report on May 13, 2013, the Taylor Street facility was able to resume supplying parts and components for the further manufacturing of medical devices at other Company facilities. The Company's receipt of the FDA's acceptance of the second certification report on July 15, 2013, resulted in the Company being able to resume design activities at the impacted facilities related to power wheelchairs and power beds.

The third expert certification audit is an overall review of the Company's compliance with the FDA's QSR at the impacted Elyria facilities. This audit process is the most comprehensive and challenging of the three expert certification audits, and it encompasses all areas of the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street quality system. As part of this process, the Company has determined that it needs to better demonstrate that its quality system is sustainably compliant and that each subsystem is properly integrated. With the help of a consulting firm the Company engaged in 2014, the Company is executing on its action plans to improve the functionality and capabilities of its quality system.

The Company cannot predict the timing or the outcome of the final expert certification audit nor acceptance of the results of this audit by the FDA. According to the consent decree, once the expert's third certification audit is completed and the certification report is submitted to the FDA, as well as the Company’s own report related to its compliance status, together with its responses to any observations in the certification report, the FDA will inspect the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities to determine whether they are in compliance with the FDA's QSR. If the FDA is satisfied with the Company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities. The FDA has the authority to inspect any FDA registered facility at any time.

After resumption of full operations, the Company must undergo five years of audits by a third-party expert auditor to determine whether the facilities are in continuous compliance with FDA's QSR and the consent decree. The auditor will inspect the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities’ activities every six months during the first year following the resumption of full operations and then every 12 months for the next four years thereafter.

As described above, because the limitations on production are not expected to be permanent in nature, and partial production is allowed, the Company does not anticipate any major repair, replacement or scrapping of its fixed assets at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility. Based on the Company's expectations at the time of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with respect to the utilization of such raw material and with respect to expected future cash flows from production at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility, the Company concluded that there is no impairment in the value of the fixed assets related to the Taylor Street manufacturing facility at June 30, 2015.

The majority of the production from the Taylor Street facility is "made to order" custom wheelchairs for customers and, as a result, there was not a significant amount of finished goods inventory on hand at June 30, 2015, and the inventory is expected to be fully utilized. Accordingly, the Company concluded that there was not an impairment of the work in process and finished goods at the Taylor Street facility at June 30, 2015. Further, based on its analysis of the raw material inventory at the Taylor Street facility and the Company's expectations at the time of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with respect to the time frame for completion of the third-party expert certification audits and FDA inspection, the Company concluded that the value of the inventory was not excessive or impaired at June 30, 2015. However, if the Company's expectations regarding the impacts of the limitations in the consent decree or the time frame for completion of the third-party expert certification audits and FDA inspection

were to change, the Company may, in future periods, conclude that an impairment exists with respect to its fixed assets or inventory at the Taylor Street facility.

Although the North America/HME segment is the segment primarily impacted by the limitations in the FDA consent decree, the Asia/Pacific segment also is negatively affected as a result of the consent decree due to the lower sales volume of microprocessor controllers. During 2012, before the effective date of the consent decree, the Company started to experience decreases in net sales in the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific segments. The Company believes that those decreases were driven in large part by the consent decree which has led to delays in new product introductions and to uncertainty regarding the timing of exiting the consent decree, which limited the Company's ability to renegotiate and bid on certain customer contracts and otherwise led to a decline in customer orders. Separately, net sales in the North America/HME segment were likely impacted by uncertainty on the part of the Company's customers as they coped with prepayment reviews and post-payment audits by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ("CMS") and contemplated their participation in the next round of National Competitive Bidding ("NCB"). The negative effect of the consent decree on customer orders and net sales in these segments has been considerable, and the Company expects to continue to experience low levels of net sales in the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific segments at least until it has successfully completed the previously-described third-party expert certification audit and FDA inspection and has received written notification from the FDA that the Company may resume full operations at the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities. Even after the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the affected facilities, it is uncertain as to whether, or how quickly, the Company will be able to rebuild net sales to more typical historical levels, irrespective of market conditions. Accordingly, when compared to the Company's 2010 results, the limitations in the consent decree had, and likely will continue to have, a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

For additional information regarding the consent decree, please see the following sections of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014: Item 1. Business - Government Regulation and Item 1A. Risk Factors; Item 3. Legal Proceedings; and the following sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q: Item 1. Legal Proceedings; and Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Outlook and - Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company' recorded additional warranty expense in 2014 totaling $11,493,000 for three specific product recall issues. First, an expense of $6,559,000 for a recall related to a component in stationary oxygen concentrators that were manufactured in the Company’s facility in Suzhou, China, and sold globally. This expense was recorded in the European segment ($3,395,000) and North America/HME segment ($3,164,000). Second, an expense of $2,057,000 for the recall of a sieve bed component used within stationary oxygen concentrators manufactured in the Company's Sanford, Florida facility during August 2014, which was recorded in the North America/HME segment. Third, an incremental expense of $2,877,000 related to the Company's joystick recall as a result of higher than previously anticipated response rates from large customers in the U.S. and Canada and a product mix toward higher cost joysticks, which was recorded in the North America/HME segment ($1,612,000) and the Asia/Pacific segment ($1,265,000). No additional warranty expense for these issues was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2015. However, these warranty reserves are subject to adjustment in future periods as new developments change the Company's estimate of the total cost of these recall matters. See Current Liabilities in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for current year warranty provision amounts and a reconciliation of the changes in the warranty accrual.

In December 2010, the Company received a warning letter from the FDA related to quality system processes and procedures at the Company's Sanford, Florida facility. In October 2014, the FDA conducted an inspection at the Sanford facility and, at the conclusion, issued its Form 483 containing four inspectional observations. The Company has timely filed its response with the FDA and continues to work on addressing the FDA observations. In January 2014, the FDA conducted inspections at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Suzhou, China and at the Company’s electronic components subsidiary in Christchurch, New Zealand, covering quality systems and current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations. In August 2014, the FDA inspected Alber GmbH in Albstadt, Germany. The FDA issued its inspectional observations on Form 483 to the Company after these inspections, and the Company submitted its responses to the agency in a timely manner. The results of regulatory claims, proceedings, investigations, or litigation are difficult to predict. An unfavorable resolution or outcome of the FDA warning letter at the Sanford facility or other FDA enforcement related to another Company facility could materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Any of the above contingencies could have an adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Subsequent Event

On July 2, 2015, ICC completed the sale (the "Transaction") of all the issued and outstanding membership interests the Rental Subsidiaries, pursuant to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, ICC and Joerns Healthcare Parent, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. The price paid to ICC for the Rental Subsidiaries was approximately $15,500,000 in cash, which is subject to certain post-closing adjustments required by the Purchase Agreement. The Company estimates net proceeds from the Transaction are approximately $13,700,000, net of taxes and expenses. The Company expects to record a loss of approximately $46,000 pre-tax in the third quarter of 2015 which represents the excess of the book value of the assets and liabilities of the Rental Subsidiaries, as of the date of completion of the disposition, over the net sales price. The sale of the Rental Subsidiaries is not expected to be dilutive to the Company's results. The Company utilized the proceeds from the sale to reduce debt outstanding under its credit agreement. The Company determined that the sale of the Rentals Subsidiaries did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation in accordance with ASU 2014-08. See Operations Held For Sale in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a listing of the assets and liabilities sold.

On July 8, 2015, the Rights Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2005 and amended as of October 28, 2009, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., successor to National City Bank, as Rights Agent (the "Rights Agreement"), and all the related Rights attached to the Company's outstanding common shares pursuant to the Rights Agreement, expired in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement. As previously disclosed by the Company, the Board of Directors determined that the existing Rights Agreement would not be renewed following its expiration on July 8, 2015.

Supplemental Guarantor Information

Effective February 12, 2007, substantially all of the domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) of the Company became guarantors of the indebtedness of Invacare Corporation under its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027 (the “Debentures”) with an original aggregate principal amount of $135,000,000. The majority of the Company’s subsidiaries are not guaranteeing the indebtedness of the Debentures (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”). Each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries has fully and unconditionally guaranteed, on a joint and several basis, to pay principal, premium, and interest related to the Debentures and each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are directly or indirectly 100%-owned subsidiaries of the Company. Specifically, the Debentures are guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis by all of the Company's existing domestic subsidiaries (other than the Company's captive insurance subsidiary and any receivables subsidiaries) and certain future direct and indirect 100% owned domestic subsidiaries. All of the guarantors are released and relieved of any liability under such guarantees upon the satisfaction and discharge of the indenture governing the debentures and the payment in full of the debentures. Additionally, in the event any subsidiary guarantor no longer guarantees any of the Company's existing or future senior debt incurred in a public or private U.S. capital markets transaction, such guarantor shall be released and relieved of any liability which it has under the indenture governing the debentures.

Presented below are the consolidating condensed financial statements of Invacare Corporation (Parent), its combined Guarantor Subsidiaries and combined Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries with their investments in subsidiaries accounted for using the equity method. The Company does not believe that separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are material to investors and accordingly, separate financial statements and other disclosures related to the Guarantor Subsidiaries are not presented.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Continuing Operations.

OUTLOOK

The Company’s near-term priorities are first, building a strong enterprise-wide quality culture, and second, driving profitable growth. The Company is making good progress enhancing quality systems and creating a sustainable quality culture. A number of initiatives are underway focused on improving results, especially in the North America/Home Medical Equipment (HME) business. To help lead improvements and long-term growth in North America, the Company has appointed a new general manager of the North America/HME and Institutional Products Group segments. In addition, the Company is conducting comprehensive reviews of the North America businesses including initiatives to improve salesforce effectiveness, product development and supply chain efficiencies.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, net sales, excluding foreign currency translation, increased in the European, Institutional Products Group and Asia/Pacific segments, which was more than offset by a net sales decline in the North America/HME segment. In addition, the European and Institutional Products Group segments contributed positive earnings while the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific recognized lower losses in comparison to the first half of 2014, which resulted in a net loss from continuing operations of $0.49 for the six month ended June 30, 2015 compared to a net loss of $1.04 per share for the same period a year ago.

Pressures on the Company's net sales and margins persist, particularly in the North America/HME segment, which is expected to continue at least until the Company has successfully completed the required third-party expert certification audit and the corresponding FDA inspection and has received written notification from the FDA that the Company may resume full operations at its Corporate and Taylor Street manufacturing facilities. Even if the Company receives the FDA notification that it may resume full operations at its Taylor Street facility, it is uncertain as to whether, or how quickly, the Company will be able to rebuild net sales, particularly in mobility and seating products, to more typical historical levels, irrespective of market conditions. Furthermore, Lifestyle product sales for the North America/HME segment have been negatively impacted by a shift toward lower cost products that are subject to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ National Competitive Bidding (NCB) program and pre- and post-payment audits. To attempt to address the declines in this product segment, the Company assembled a portfolio of single-user products. While the product launch was slowed by the United States West Coast port strike, the Company now is in the process of introducing its full single-user product portfolio into the market. The Company continues to closely monitor the roll-out of NCB, which is effective in 100 metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) of the United States and will start to impact rural regions in January 2016. The Company expects that these challenges will likely negatively impact the Company's operating results throughout 2015.

The European segment, which is the Company's main driver of profitability and cash flow, continued to be negatively impacted by the weakness of the Euro and other currencies relative to the U.S. dollar in the first half of 2015. Accordingly, the European segment's strong performance translated into lower earnings and a lower cash flow benefit in the first half of 2015 as compared to the first half of 2014. The Company's consolidated cash flow was also negatively impacted by executive retirement payments of $10,966,000 in the first half of 2015. The Company is obligated to make additional payments of approximately $13,685,000 during the third quarter of 2015.

To position the Company for the future, the Company has adjusted its capital structure accordingly and has narrowed its focus on its long-term strengths, as evident through the real estate sale and leaseback transaction in April 2015 and the July 2015 divestiture of the United States rentals businesses. The sale and lease back transaction involved four of the Company's properties located in Ohio and one in Florida for net proceeds of $23,000,000, which were used to reduce debt on the Company’s revolving asset-based credit facility. The Company's sale of its United States rentals business for approximately $15,500,000 in cash resulted in net proceeds of approximately $13,700,000 which were used to reduce debt. The Company will continue to monitor and manage cash flow particularly closely in 2015 while working diligently toward improving the profitability of the North America/HME and Asia/Pacific businesses, and continuing its quality systems remediation.

STATUS OF THE CONSENT DECREE

On December 21, 2012, the Company entered into a consent decree of injunction with the FDA related to the Company's corporate and Taylor Street wheelchair manufacturing facilities in Elyria, Ohio. The consent decree limits production at the Taylor Street manufacturing facility to orders meeting certain documentation requirements. In order to resume full operations at these facilities, the consent decree requires that a third-party expert perform three separate certification audits. The third-party certification audit reports must be submitted to the FDA for review and acceptance. The Company has received the FDA's acceptance of the first two certification reports. The Company cannot predict the timing or the outcome of the third expert certification audit nor acceptance of the results of this audit by the FDA. The FDA has the authority to inspect any FDA registered facility at any time.

According to the consent decree, once the expert's third certification audit is completed and its certification report is submitted to the FDA, as well as the Company’s own report related to its compliance status together with its responses to any observations in the certification report, the FDA will inspect the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities to determine whether they are in compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation (QSR). If and when the FDA is satisfied with the Company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.

See the “Contingencies” note to the financial statements contained in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and “Forward-Looking Statements” contained below in this Item.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

Except for free cash flow, the financial information for all periods excludes the results of discontinued operations of Altimate, the Company's former manufacturer of stationary standing assistive devices for use in patient rehabilitation that was divested on August 29, 2014. Altimate was a part of the North America/HME segment. For more information, see the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Net Sales. Consolidated net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 decreased 12.4% to $286,273,000 versus $326,943,000 for the same period last year. Foreign currency translation decreased net sales by 10.3 percentage points. Constant currency net sales, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, decreased by 2.1% for the quarter compared to the same period last year. This financial measure is reconciled to the related GAAP financial measures in the "Business Segment Net Sales" table on page I-8. Constant currency net sales increased in the European, IPG and Asia/Pacific segments, but were more than offset by a decline in the North American/HME segment. Net sales of products manufactured from the Taylor Street facility, which were impacted by the Company's consent decree with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and which included product sales outside of the North America/HME segment, were approximately $9,800,000 in the second quarter of 2015 compared to approximately $10,500,000 in the second quarter of 2014.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased 8.9% to $575,297,000 versus $631,444,000 for the same period last year. Foreign currency translation decreased net sales by 8.9 percentage points. Constant currency net sales for the quarter were flat compared to the same period last year. Higher constant currency net sales in the European, IPG and Asia/Pacific segments were offset by lower constant currency net sales in the North America/HME segment. Net sales of products manufactured from the Taylor Street facility, which were impacted by the Company's consent decree with the FDA and which included product sales outside of the North America/HME segment, were approximately $20,200,000 in the first half of 2015 compared to approximately $20,000,000 in the first half of last year.

Europe

For the quarter, European net sales decreased 16.7% to $128,221,000 versus $153,990,000 for the second quarter last year with foreign currency translation decreasing net sales by 19.6 percentage points. Excluding foreign currency translation, net sales for the quarter increased by 2.9% over the same period last year driven by improvements in all three product categories (mobility and seating, lifestyles and respiratory products).

Table of Contents

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, European net sales decreased 13.3% to $257,222,000 versus $296,758,000 for the same period last year as foreign currency translation decreased net sales by 16.9 percentage points. Constant currency net sales increased 3.6% driven by improvements in all three product categories.

North America/Home Medical Equipment (HME)

North America/HME net sales decreased 11.4% for the quarter to $119,023,000 as compared to $134,309,000 for the same period a year ago with foreign currency translation decreasing net sales by 0.9 of a percentage point. Constant currency net sales decreased 10.5% for the quarter compared to the second quarter last year driven by declines in all three product categories.

Constant currency net sales decreased 4.8% compared to the same period last year driven by declines in all product categories.

Institutional Products Group (IPG)

IPG net sales for the quarter increased 6.1% to $27,370,000 compared to $25,785,000 for the same period last year as foreign currency decreased net sales by 0.8 of a percentage point. Constant currency net sales increased 6.9% over the same period last year driven primarily by increases in interior design projects and beds sales, which included incremental volume related to the resolution of a supply chain transition referenced in the first quarter of 2015.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased 0.7% to $51,284,000 compared to $50,921,000 for the same period last year as foreign currency decreased net sales by 0.8 of a percentage point. Constant currency net sales increased 1.5% driven largely by interior design projects and net sales of therapeutic support surfaces.

Asia/Pacific

Asia/Pacific net sales decreased 9.3% for the quarter to $11,659,000 as compared to $12,859,000 for the same period a year ago as foreign currency decreased net sales by 16.0 percentage points. Constant currency net sales increased 6.7% over the same period last year which was attributable to increased net sales for the Australian and New Zealand distribution businesses.

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2015 decreased 9.3% to $22,604,000 as compared to $24,914,000 for the same period a year ago as foreign currency translation decreased net sales by 13.7 percentage points. Constant currency net sales increased 4.4% primarily due to increased net sales for the New Zealand distribution business.

Gross Profit. Consolidated gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was 27.0% and 26.8% compared to 28.0% and 27.6% in the same periods last year, driven by unfavorable foreign exchange, freight costs and negative sales mix. Manufacturing costs were favorable.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, gross profit in Europe as a percentage of net sales decreased 3.0 percentage points compared to the same period last year. Gross profit was unfavorably impacted by foreign currency and negative sales mix.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, North America/HME gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased by 1.6 percentage points compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily as a result of lower manufacturing and warranty costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, IPG gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased 3.5 percentage points compared to the same period last year. The decline in margin is primarily attributable to unfavorable sales mix and higher freight costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2015, gross profit in Asia/Pacific as a percentage of net sales increased by 4.6 percentage points compared to the same period last year. The increase in gross margins was primarily as a result of lower warranty, freight and operational costs.

SG&A expenses decreased by $17,800,000, or 17.7%, and $33,362,000, or 16.9%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the same periods a year ago, with foreign currency translation decreasing SG&A expenses by $7,270,000, or 7.2 percentage points and by $12,445,000, or 6.3 percentage points. On a constant currency basis, SG&A expense decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 by $10,530,000, or 10.5% and by $20,917,000, or 10.6%, compared to the same periods a year ago. The reduction in SG&A expense was primarily related to favorable employment costs, consulting costs and depreciation and amortization expense. The SG&A expense in the first half of 2015 included $668,000 for the write-off of bank fees as compared to $1,070,000 of write-offs recorded during the first half of 2014.

European SG&A expenses decreased by 20.2%, or $7,376,000, for the quarter and by 16.3%, or $11,503,000, compared to the same periods a year ago, with foreign currency translation decreasing SG&A expenses by approximately $6,103,000, or 16.7 percentage points and $10,319,000, or 14.6 percentage points, for each period, respectively. Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, SG&A expenses decreased by $1,273,000, or 3.5%, for the quarter and by $1,184,000, or 1.7%, for the first half of the year compared to the same periods a year ago. The SG&A expense decreases for the quarter and first half of the year were primarily attributable to lower employment costs.

Excluding the foreign currency translation, SG&A expenses decreased $5,513,000, or 13.7%, for the quarter, and $12,528,000, or 15.2%, for the first half of the year. The decrease in expense for the quarter compared to the same period last year was primarily related to reductions in employment costs and consulting costs while the decrease in the first half compared to last year was driven principally by favorable employment costs, lower consulting costs and a decrease in depreciation and amortization. The SG&A expense in the first half of 2015 included $668,000 for the write-off of bank fees as compared to a write-off of $1,070,000 recorded during the first half of 2014.

SG&A expenses for IPG decreased by 19.8%, or $2,203,000, for the quarter and by 18.6%, or $3,949,000 for the first six months of 2015, compared to the same periods a year ago. Foreign currency translation impact for the quarter and first half of the year had no significant impact. Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, SG&A expenses decreased by $2,197,000, or 19.7%, and by $3,959,000, or 18.6%, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to the same periods a year ago. The SG&A expense decreases for the quarter and first half of the year were primarily attributable to lower employment costs and depreciation and amortization expenses.

Excluding the foreign currency translation impact, SG&A expenses decreased by $1,042,000, or 18.1%, and $1,386,000, or 12.3%, for the quarter and first half of the year, which was primarily driven by favorable employment costs and a decrease in depreciation and amortization.

SG&A expenses related to the Other Segment decreased by 7.6%, or $505,000, and 15.8%, or $1,860,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to the same periods a year ago. The SG&A expense decreases for the quarter and first half of the year were primarily attributable to lower legal and professional costs.

Charge Related to Restructuring Activities. Restructuring charges totaled $929,000 in the first six months of 2015 related principally to severance costs ($928,000) incurred primarily in the NA/HME segment ($690,000) and to a lesser extent the Europe segment ($160,000). In the first six months of 2014, the Company incurred restructuring charges of $4,330,000, principally related to severance in North America/HME, and to a lesser extent the Europe and IPG segments, as well as building write-downs in the IPG segment, associated with the closure of the Company's London, Canada facility, and the European segment, associated with a facility closure in Sweden.

Interest.

the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $323,000 and $391,000 for the same periods last year. Interest income in 2014 was higher primarily due to interest received on the settlement of a German value added tax claim.

Income Taxes. The Company had an effective tax rate of 26.6% and 36.4% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was unfavorable to the U.S. federal statutory rate benefit, principally due to the negative impact of the Company not being able to record tax benefits related to the significant losses in countries which had tax valuation allowances. The rate benefited by taxes outside the United States, excluding countries with tax valuation allowances, at an effective rate lower than the U.S. statutory rate.

The Company had an effective tax rate of 24.8% and 17.2% on losses before tax from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, compared to an expected benefit at the U.S. statutory rate of 35%. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was unfavorable to the U.S. federal statutory rate benefit, principally due to the negative impact of the Company not being able to record tax benefits related to the significant losses in countries which had tax valuation allowances. The rate benefited by taxes outside the United States, excluding countries with tax valuation allowances, at an effective rate lower than the U.S. statutory rate.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company continues to maintain an adequate liquidity position through its unused bank lines of credit (see Long-Term Debt in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report) and working capital management.

The Company's total debt outstanding, inclusive of the debt discount included in equity in accordance with FSB APB 14-1, increased by $27,131,000 to $49,461,000 at June 30, 2015 from $22,330,000 as of December 31, 2014. The Company's balance sheet reflects the impact of ASC 470-20, which reduced debt and increased equity by $1,612,000 and $1,999,000 as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The debt increase during the first six months of 2015 was principally a result of the recording of $32,339,000 in capital lease liabilities as a result of the Company's real estate sale and leaseback transaction completed in the second quarter of 2015. The Company's cash and cash equivalents were $22,671,000 at June 30, 2015, down from $38,931,000 as of December 31, 2014. At June 30, 2015, the Company had outstanding borrowings of zero on its revolving credit facility as compared to $4,000,000 as of December 31, 2014.

The Company's borrowing capacity and cash balances were utilized for normal operations during the period ended June 30, 2015. Debt repurchases, acquisitions, divestitures, the timing of vendor payments, the granting of extended payment terms to significant national accounts and other activity can have a significant impact on the Company's cash flow and borrowings outstanding such that the debt reported at the end of a given period may be materially different than debt levels during a given period. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the outstanding borrowings on the Company's revolving credit facility varied from a low of zero to a high of $35,000,000. While the Company has cash balances in various jurisdictions around the world, there are no material restrictions regarding the use of such cash for dividends within the Company, loans or other purposes, except in China where the cash balance as of June 30, 2015 was approximately $5,900,000.

On January 16, 2015, the Company entered into an asset-based lending Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The proceeds of the Credit Agreement were used to repay approximately $17,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of borrowings and terminate the Company's prior credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in October 2015. As determined pursuant to the borrowing base formula, the Company’s borrowing base including the period ending June 30, 2015 under the credit facility of the Credit Agreement was approximately $75,285,000, with aggregate borrowing availability of approximately $46,929,000, taking into account the $10,000,000 minimum availability reserve, then-outstanding letters of credit, other reserves and the $11,250,000 dominion trigger amount noted below. See Long-Term Debt in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more details regarding the Credit Agreement.

As a result of entering the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred $1,391,000 in fees, which were capitalized and are being amortized through January 2018. In addition, as a result of terminating the prior credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in October 2015, the Company wrote-off $668,000 in previously capitalized fees in the first quarter of 2015, which is reflected in the expense of the North America / HME segment.

Table of Contents

As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants including dominion triggers requiring the Company to maintain borrowing capacity of not less than $11,250,000 on an given business day or $12,500,000 for 5 consecutive days in order to avoid triggering full control by an agent for the lenders of the Company's cash receipts for application to the Company's obligations under the agreement.

If the Company is unable to comply with the provisions in the Credit Agreement, it could result in a default, which could trigger acceleration of, or the right to accelerate, the related debt. Because of cross-default provisions in its agreements and instruments governing certain of the Company's indebtedness, a default under the Credit Agreement could result in a default under, and the acceleration of, certain other Company indebtedness. In addition, the Company's lenders would be entitled to proceed against the collateral securing the indebtedness.

Based on the Company's current expectations, the Company believes that its cash balances, cash generated by operations and available borrowing capacity under its Credit Agreement should be sufficient to meet working capital needs, capital requirements, and commitments for at least the next twelve months. However, the Company's ability to satisfy its liquidity needs will depend on many factors, including the operating performance of the business, the Company's ability to successfully complete in a timely manner the third-party expert certification audit and FDA inspection contemplated under the consent decree and receipt of the written notification from the FDA permitting the Company to resume full operations, as well as the Company's compliance with the provisions under its Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company must make additional SERP and deferred compensation payments totaling approximately $13,685,000 by the end of the third quarter of 2015 as the result of the retirement of senior executives during 2014 which will negatively impact operating cash flows for the Company. Notwithstanding the Company's expectations, if the Company's operating results decline as the result of pressures on the business due to, for example, currency fluctuations or regulatory issues or the Company's failure to execute its business plans, the Company may be unable to comply with its obligations under the Credit Agreement, and its lenders could demand repayment of the amounts outstanding under the Company's credit facility.

As a result, continued compliance with the Company's Credit Agreement is a high priority, which means the Company remains focused on generating sufficient cash and managing its expenditures. The Company also may examine alternatives such as raising additional capital through asset sales or additional sales and leaseback of properties. Such items, if available on terms satisfactory to the Company, could be dilutive to the Company's results. For instance, in April 2015, the Company sold and leased back, under long-term leases, five of its properties located in Ohio and Florida for net proceeds of $23,000,000 which were used to reduce debt on the Company’s revolving asset-based credit facility. As well, in July 2015, the Company's sold its U.S. Rental Subsidiaries for net proceeds of approximately $13,700,000, which were used to reduce debt. In addition, if necessary and advisable, the Company may seek to renegotiate its Credit Agreement in order to remain in compliance with its obligations. The Company can make no assurances that under such circumstances its financing arrangements could be renegotiated, or that alternative financing would be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.

The Company may from time to time seek to retire or purchase its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2027. The Company has not repurchased and extinguished any of its Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures since 2012. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $13,350,000 remaining of Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures.

While there is general concern about the potential for rising interest rates, the Company believes that its exposure to interest rate fluctuations is manageable as the Company has the ability to utilize swaps to exchange variable rate debt for fixed rate debt, if needed, and the Company expects that it will be able to absorb any modest rate increases in the months ahead without any material impact on its liquidity or capital resources. As of June 30, 2015, the weighted average floating interest rate on revolving credit borrowings was 4.15% compared to 2.25% as of December 31, 2014.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

The Company estimates that capital investments for 2015 could approximate between $10,000,000 and $15,000,000, compared to actual capital expenditures of $12,327,000 in 2014. The Company believes that its balances of cash and cash equivalents, together with funds generated from operations and existing borrowing facilities, will be sufficient to meet its operating cash requirements and fund required capital expenditures. The Credit Agreement, entered into on January 16, 2015, limits the Company's annual capital expenditures to $20,000,000. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has material capital expenditure

commitments outstanding, consisting primarily of computer systems contracts. See Item 7. Contractual Obligations of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

CASH FLOWS

Cash flows used by operating activities were $35,395,000 for the first six months of 2015, compared to cash flows used by operating activities of $13,899,000 in the first six months of 2014. The negative operating cash flow in 2015 was principally due to $10,966,000 in benefit payments related to the 2014 retirements of executive officers of the Company and to increased accounts receivable driven primarily by net sales growth, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and higher inventory levels.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were $31,941,000 for the first six months of 2015, compared to cash used of $1,927,000 in the first six months of 2014. The significant change in investing cash flow was primarily attributable to the receipt of $23,000,000 in proceeds from the Company's real estate sale leaseback transaction as well as the surrender of corporate-owned life insurance totaling $11,900,000 in the first six months of 2015 to fund benefit payments related to the retirement of executive officers of the Company in 2014. The Company must make additional benefit payments totaling approximately $13,685,000 by the end of the third quarter of 2015 as the result of the retirement of executive officers during 2014 which will negatively impact the Company's future operating cash flows.

Cash flows used by financing activities were $10,382,000 in the first six months of 2015 compared to cash flow provided of $7,672,000 in the first six months of 2014. Cash flows used in the first six months of 2015 reflect net debt payments in the quarter as well as the payment of financing costs related to the Company refinancing its debt in January 2015.

During the first six months of 2015, free cash flow was negative $14,180,000 compared to negative $17,327,000 in the first six months of 2014. The first six months 2015 free cash flow was negatively impacted by $10,966,000 in benefit payments related to the 2014 retirements of two executive officers of the Company, increased accounts receivable driven primarily by net sales growth, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, and higher inventory levels. The first six months 2015 free cash flow was positively impacted by $23,000,000 in proceeds from the Company's real estate sale leaseback transaction. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is comprised of net cash used by operating activities, excluding net cash flow impact related to restructuring activities, less purchases of property and equipment, net of proceeds from sales of property and equipment. Management believes that this financial measure provides meaningful information for evaluating the overall financial performance of the Company and its ability to repay debt or make future investments (including acquisitions, etc.).

The non-GAAP financial measure is reconciled to the GAAP measure as follows (in thousands):

DIVIDEND POLICY

On May 14, 2015, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0125 per Common Share to shareholders of record as of July 2, 2015, which was paid on July 13, 2015. At the current rate, the cash dividend will amount to $0.05 per Common Share on an annual basis.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Consolidated Financial Statements included in the report include accounts of the Company and all majority-owned subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnotes. In preparing the financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. However, application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

The following critical accounting policies, among others, affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Invacare’s revenues are recognized when products are shipped or services provided to unaffiliated customers. Revenue Recognition, ASC 605, provides guidance on the application of generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The Company has concluded that its revenue recognition policy is appropriate and in accordance with GAAP and ASC 605. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.

I-8

Table of Contents

Sales are made only to customers with whom the Company believes collection is reasonably assured based upon a credit analysis, which may include obtaining a credit application, a signed security agreement, personal guarantee and/or a cross corporate guarantee depending on the credit history of the customer. Credit lines are established for new customers after an evaluation of their credit report and/or other relevant financial information. Existing credit lines are regularly reviewed and adjusted with consideration given to any outstanding past due amounts.

The Company offers discounts and rebates, which are accounted for as reductions to revenue in the period in which the sale is recognized. Discounts offered include: cash discounts for prompt payment, base and trade discounts based on contract level for specific classes of customers. Volume discounts and rebates are given based on large purchases and the achievement of certain sales volumes. Product returns are accounted for as a reduction to reported sales with estimates recorded for anticipated returns at the time of sale. The Company does not ship any goods on consignment.

Distributed products sold by the Company are accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition guidance in ASC 605-45-05. The Company records distributed product sales gross as a principal since the Company takes title to the products and has the risks of loss for collections, delivery and returns.

Product sales that give rise to installment receivables are recorded at the time of sale when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred. Interest income is recognized on installment agreements in accordance with the terms of the agreements. Installment accounts are monitored and if a customer defaults on payments, interest income is no longer recognized. All installment accounts are accounted for using the same methodology, regardless of duration of the installment agreements.

Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts Receivable

The estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts is based primarily on management's evaluation of the financial condition of the customer. In addition, as a result of the third party financing arrangement, management monitors the collection status of these contracts in accordance with the Company's limited recourse obligations and provides amounts necessary for estimated losses in the allowance for doubtful accounts and establishing reserves for specific customers as needed.

The Company continues to closely monitor the credit-worthiness of its customers and adhere to tight credit policies. In 2013, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced new Medicare prices which became effective in July 2013 for the second round of the NCB program, which was expanded to include 91 additional MSAs. By January 1, 2016, CMS expects to begin expanding NCB to 100% of the Medicare population. The Company believes the changes announced could have a significant impact on the collectability of accounts receivable for those customers which are in the MSA locations impacted and which have a portion of their revenues tied to Medicare reimbursement. As a result, this is an additional risk factor which the Company considers when assessing the collectability of accounts receivable.

The Company has an agreement with DLL, a third party financing company, to provide the majority of future lease financing to Invacare's North America customers. The DLL agreement provides for direct leasing between DLL and the Invacare customer. The Company retains a recourse obligation for events of default under the contracts. The Company monitors the collections status of these contracts and has provided amounts for estimated losses in its allowances for doubtful accounts.

Inventories and Related Allowance for Obsolete and Excess Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories have been reduced by an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories. The estimated allowance is based on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated future usage and sales. A provision for excess and obsolete inventory is recorded as needed based upon the discontinuation of products, redesigning of existing products, new product introductions, market changes and safety issues. Both raw materials and finished goods are reserved for on the balance sheet.

In general, Invacare reviews inventory turns as an indicator of obsolescence or slow moving product as well as the impact of new product introductions. Depending on the situation, the Company may partially or fully reserve for the individual item. The Company continues to increase its overseas sourcing efforts, increase its emphasis on the development and introduction of new products, and decrease the cycle time to bring new product offerings to market. These initiatives are potential sources of inventory obsolescence for both raw material and finished goods.

Goodwill, Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets

Property, equipment, intangibles and certain other long-lived assets are amortized over their useful lives. Useful lives are based on management's estimates of the period that the assets will generate revenue. Under Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, ASC 350, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are subject to annual impairment tests. The Company's measurement date for its annual goodwill impairment test is October 1. Furthermore, goodwill and other long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The majority of the Company's goodwill and intangible assets relate to the Company's Europe and IPG segments which have continued to be profitable.

To review goodwill for impairment in accordance with ASC 350, the Company first estimates the fair value of each reporting unit and compares the calculated fair value to the carrying value of the each reporting unit. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below. The Company has determined that its reporting units are the same as its operating segments. The Company completes its annual impairment tests in the fourth quarter of each year. To estimate the fair values of the reporting units, the Company utilizes a discounted cash flow (DCF) method in which the Company forecasts income statement and balance sheet amounts based on assumptions regarding future sales growth, profitability, inventory turns, days' sales outstanding, etc. to forecast future cash flows. The cash flows are discounted using a weighted average cost of capital discount rate where the cost of debt is based on quoted rates for 20-year debt of companies of similar credit risk and the cost of equity is based upon the 20-year treasury rate for the risk free rate, a market risk premium, the industry average beta and a small cap stock adjustment. The discount rates used have a significant impact upon the discounted cash flow methodology utilized in the Company's annual impairment testing as higher discount rates decrease the fair value estimates. The assumptions used are based on a market participant's point of view and yielded a discount rate of 9.89% in 2014 for the Company's annual impairment analysis compared to 10.00% in 2013 and 9.88% in 2012.

The Company also utilizes an Enterprise Value (EV) to Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) Method to compute the fair value of its reporting units which considers potential acquirers and their EV to EBITDA multiples adjusted by an estimated premium. While more weight is given to the discounted cash flow method, the EV to EBITDA method does provide corroborative evidence of the reasonableness of the discounted cash flow method results.

In 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company performed a review for potential impairments of any other assets, including the Company's Taylor Street facility which is subject to the FDA consent decree that limits the Company's manufacture and distribution of custom power and manual wheelchairs, wheelchair components and wheelchair subassemblies at the Taylor Street facility. The Company determined there was no impairment of the property, plant and equipment of the Taylor Street facility based on a comparison of the forecasted undiscounted cash flows to the carrying value of the net assets in accordance with ASC 360. In addition, the Company determined there was no impairment of inventory associated with the facility. There were no changes during the first quarter of 2015 which would result in an impairment of inventory or other assets at the Taylor Street facility.

While there was no indication of impairment in 2014 related to goodwill for the Europe or IPG segments, a future potential impairment is possible for any of the Company's segments should actual results differ materially from forecasted results used in the valuation analysis. Furthermore, the Company's annual valuation of goodwill can differ materially if the market inputs used to determine the discount rate change significantly. For instance, higher interest rates or greater stock price volatility would increase the discount rate and thus increase the chance of impairment. In consideration of this potential, the Company reviewed the results if the discount rate used were 100 basis points higher for the 2014 impairment analysis and determined that there still would not be any indicator of potential impairment for the segments with goodwill which are Europe and IPG.

The Company's intangible assets consist of intangible assets with defined lives as well as intangible assets with indefinite lives. Defined-lived intangible assets consist principally of customer lists, developed technology, license agreements, patents and other miscellaneous intangibles such as non-compete agreements. The Company's indefinite lived intangible assets consist entirely of trademarks.

Product Liability

The Company is self-insured in North America for product liability exposures through its captive insurance company, Invatection Insurance Company, which currently has a policy year that runs from September 1 to August 31 and insures annual policy losses of $10,000,000 per occurrence and $13,000,000 in the aggregate. The Company also has additional layers of external insurance coverage, related to all lines of insurance coverage, insuring up to $75,000,000 in aggregate losses per policy year arising from individual claims anywhere in the world that exceed the captive insurance company policy limits or the limits of the Company’s per country foreign liability limits, as applicable. There can be no assurance that the Company’s current insurance levels will continue to be adequate or available at affordable rates.

Product liability reserves are recorded for individual claims based upon historical experience, industry expertise and other indicators. Additional reserves, in excess of the specific individual case reserves, are provided for incurred but not reported claims based upon actuarial valuations at the time such valuations are conducted. Historical claims experience and other assumptions are taken into consideration by the Company in estimating the ultimate reserves. For example, the actuarial analysis assumes that historical loss experience is an indicator of future experience, that the distribution of exposures by geographic area and nature of operations for ongoing operations is expected to be very similar to historical operations with no dramatic changes and that the government indices used to trend losses and exposures are appropriate.

Estimates made are adjusted on a regular basis and can be impacted by actual loss awards and settlements on claims. While actuarial analysis is used to help determine adequate reserves, the Company is responsible for the determination and recording of adequate reserves in accordance with accepted loss reserving standards and practices.

Warranty

Generally, the Company’s products are covered by warranties against defects in material and workmanship for various periods depending on the product from the date of sale to the customer. Certain components carry a lifetime warranty. A provision for estimated warranty cost is recorded at the time of sale based upon actual experience. The Company continuously assesses the adequacy of its product warranty accrual and makes adjustments as needed. Historical analysis is primarily used to determine the Company’s warranty reserves. Claims history is reviewed and provisions are adjusted as needed. However, the Company does consider other events, such as a product recall, which could warrant additional warranty reserve provision. See Current Liabilities in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of the changes in the warranty accrual.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share based compensation under the provisions of Compensation—Stock Compensation, ASC 718. The Company has not made any modifications to the terms of any previously granted options and no changes have been made regarding the valuation methodologies or assumptions used to determine the fair value of options granted. As of June 30, 2015, there was $14,050,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost from stock-based compensation arrangements, which is related to non-vested options and shares, and includes $10,840,000 related to restricted stock awards, $1,457,000 related to non-qualified stock options and $1,753,000 related to performance share awards.

The substantial majority of the options awarded have been granted at exercise prices equal to the market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted without cost to the recipients are expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. Performance awards granted are expensed based on estimated achievement of the performance objectives over the relevant performance award periods.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing its financial statements, the Company is required to estimate income taxes in various jurisdictions. The process requires estimating the Company’s current tax liability, including assessing uncertainties related to tax return filing positions, as well as estimating temporary differences due to the different treatment of items for tax and accounting policies. The temporary differences are reported as deferred tax assets and or liabilities. The Company also must estimate whether it will more likely than not realize its deferred tax assets and whether a valuation allowance should be established. Substantially all of the Company’s U.S., Australia and New Zealand deferred tax assets are offset by a valuation allowance. In the event that actual results differ from its estimates, the Company’s provision for income taxes could be materially impacted. The Company does not believe that there is a substantial likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported related to its critical accounting policies.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

For the Company’s disclosure regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Accounting Policies - Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk through various financial instruments, including fixed rate and floating rate debt instruments. The Company has at times used interest swap agreements to mitigate its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had no variable debt outstanding and thus a 1% change in interest rates would have no impact on annual interest expense. Additionally, the Company operates internationally and, as a result, is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Specifically, the exposure results from intercompany loans, intercompany sales or payments and third party sales or payments. In an attempt to reduce this exposure, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized to hedge intercompany purchases and sales as well as third party purchases and sales. The Company does not believe that any potential loss related to these financial instruments would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

On January 16, 2015, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement. The proceeds of the Credit Agreement were used to repay and terminate the Company’s prior credit agreement, which was scheduled to mature in October 2015. Accordingly, while the Company is exposed to increases in interest rates, its exposure to the volatility of the current market environment is limited as the Company recently entered into its Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary default provisions, with certain grace periods and exceptions, which provide that events of default that include, among other things, failure to pay amounts due, breach of covenants, representations or warranties, bankruptcy, the occurrence of a material adverse effect, exclusion from any medical reimbursement program, and an interruption of any material manufacturing facilities for more than ten consecutive days. Should the Company fail to comply with these requirements, the Company would potentially have to attempt to obtain alternative financing and thus likely be required to pay much higher interest rates.

As of June 30, 2015, the Company had zero outstanding under its Credit Agreement, which provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $100,000,000 at variable rates, subject to availability based on a borrowing base formula, and $13,350,000 outstanding in principal on its 4.125% Convertible Senior Subordinated Debentures due in February 2027, of which $1,612,000 is included in equity.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2015, an evaluation was performed, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2015, in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files and submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits, primarily product liability actions in which various plaintiffs seek damages for injuries allegedly caused by defective products. All of the product liability lawsuits that the Company faces in the United States have been referred to the Company's captive insurance company and/or excess insurance carriers while all non-U.S. lawsuits have been referred to the Company's commercial insurance carriers. All such lawsuits are generally contested vigorously. The coverage territory of the Company's insurance is worldwide with the exception of those countries with respect to which, at the time the product is sold for use or at the time a claim is made, the U.S. government has suspended or prohibited diplomatic or trade relations. Management does not believe that the outcome of any of these actions will have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business or financial condition.

In December 2012, the Company reached agreement with the FDA on the terms of the consent decree of injunction with respect to the Company's Corporate facility and its Taylor Street wheelchair manufacturing facility in Elyria, Ohio. A complaint and consent decree were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, and on December 21, 2012, the Court approved the consent decree and it became effective. The consent decree limited the Company's manufacture and distribution of power and manual wheelchairs, wheelchair components and wheelchair sub-assemblies at or from its Taylor Street manufacturing facility. The decree also initially limited design activities related to wheelchairs and power beds that take place at the impacted Elyria, Ohio facilities. The Company is entitled to continue to produce from the Taylor Street manufacturing facility certain medically necessary wheelchairs provided that documentation and record-keeping requirements are followed, as well as ongoing replacement, service and repair of products already in use, under terms delineated in the consent decree. Under the terms of the consent decree, in order to resume full operations at the impacted facilities, the Company must successfully complete a third-party expert certification audit at the impacted Elyria facilities, which is comprised of three distinct reports that must be submitted to, and accepted by, the FDA. After the final certification report is submitted to the FDA, along with the Company’s own report as to its compliance as well as responses to any observations in the certification report, the FDA will perform an inspection of the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities to determine whether they are in compliance with the Quality System Regulation (QSR). The FDA has the authority to inspect any FDA registered facility at any time. Once satisfied with the Company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.

During 2013, the Company completed the first two of the third-party expert certification audits, and the FDA found the results of both to be acceptable. In these reports, the third-party expert certified that the Company's equipment and process validation procedures and its design control systems are compliant with the FDA's QSR. As a result of the FDA's acceptance of the first certification report on May 13, 2013, the Taylor Street facility was able to resume supplying parts and components for the further manufacturing of medical devices at other Company facilities. The Company's receipt of the FDA's acceptance of the second certification report on July 15, 2013, resulted in the Company being able to resume design activities at the impacted facilities related to power wheelchairs and power beds. The third, most comprehensive third-party certification audit is a comprehensive review of the Company's compliance with the FDA's QSR at the impacted Elyria facilities.

With the help of a consulting firm the Company engaged in 2014, the Company's internal subject matter experts are executing on its action plans to improve the functionality and capabilities of its quality system. The Company cannot predict the timing or the outcome of the final expert certification audit nor acceptance of the results of this audit by the FDA. After the expert's certification report is completed and submitted to the FDA, along with the Company’s own report related to its compliance status together with its responses to any observations in the certification report, the FDA is expected to inspect the Company's Corporate and Taylor Street facilities to determine whether they are in compliance with the FDA's QSR. If the FDA is satisfied with the Company's compliance, the FDA will provide written notification that the Company is permitted to resume full operations at the impacted facilities.

After resumption of full operations, the Company must undergo five years of audits by a third-party expert auditor to determine whether the facilities are in continuous compliance with FDA regulations and the consent decree. The auditor will inspect the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities’ activities every six months in the first year following the resumption of full operations and then once every 12 months for the next four years.

Under the consent decree, the FDA has the authority to inspect the Corporate and Taylor Street facilities at any time. The FDA also has the authority to order the Company to take a wide variety of actions if the FDA finds that the Company is not in compliance with the consent decree or FDA regulations, including requiring the Company to cease all operations relating to Taylor Street products. The FDA can also order the Company to undertake a partial cessation of operations or a recall, issue a safety alert, public health advisory, or press release, or to take any other corrective action the FDA deems necessary with respect to Taylor Street products.

The FDA also has authority under the consent decree to assess liquidated damages of $15,000 per violation per day for any violations of the consent decree, FDA regulations or the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The FDA may also assess liquidated damages for shipments of adulterated or misbranded devices, except as permitted by the consent decree, in the amount of twice the sale price of any such adulterated or misbranded device. The liquidated damages are capped at $7,000,000 for each calendar year. The liquidated damages are in addition to any other remedies otherwise available to the FDA, including civil money penalties.

For additional information regarding the consent decree, please see the following sections of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2014: Item 1. Business - Government Regulation and Item 1A. Risk Factors; and Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Outlook and - Liquidity and Capital Resources in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

In December 2010, the Company received a warning letter from the FDA related to quality system processes and procedures at the Company's Sanford, Florida facility. In October 2014, the FDA conducted an inspection at the Sanford facility and, at the conclusion, issued its Form 483 containing four inspectional observations. In January 2014, the FDA conducted inspections at the Company’s manufacturing facility in Suzhou, China and at the Company’s electronic components subsidiary in Christchurch, New Zealand, covering quality systems and current Good Manufacturing Practice regulations. In August 2014, the FDA inspected Alber GmbH in Albstadt, Germany. The FDA issued its inspectional observations on Form 483 to the Company after these inspections, and the Company submitted its responses to the agency in a timely manner. The Company has timely filed its response with the FDA and continues to work on addressing the FDA observations. See Item Item 1. Business - Government Regulation - Other FDA Matters and 1A. Risk Factors in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2014.
