Item 2.02.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K dated with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission by Mallinckrodt on April 14, 2022, Mallinckrodt plc, an Irish public limited company in examination under Part 10 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland (“Mallinckrodt”), is engaged in discussions with certain prospective lenders to raise financing in connection with the expected forthcoming effectiveness of the previously disclosed Fourth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (with Technical Modifications) of Mallinckrodt plc and Its Debtor Affiliates Under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Plan”) confirmed in the proceedings voluntarily initiated by Mallinckrodt and certain of its subsidiaries under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Bankruptcy Court”). A copy of a presentation that Mallinckrodt expects to use in connection with the financing, which includes certain preliminary financial results for Mallinckrodt for the three months ended April 1, 2022, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

Consummation of the Plan remains subject to the satisfaction or waiver of various conditions precedent set forth in the Plan, including that the High Court of Ireland shall, in the examinership proceedings initiated therein by Mallinckrodt’s directors, make an order pursuant to Section 541 of the Companies Act of Ireland confirming a scheme of arrangement with respect to Mallinckrodt which is based on and consistent in all respects with the Plan (a “Scheme of Arrangement”), and that such Scheme of Arrangement shall become effective in accordance with its terms (or shall become effective concurrently with the effectiveness of the Plan).

The information contained in this Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, shall be deemed to be “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall such information be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

Disclaimer (Cont’d) Financial Disclosure Advisory The Company has not yet completed its reporting process for its first quarter of fiscal 2022 ended April 1, 2022. The preliminary results presented herein are based on its estimates and the information available to it at this time and, because of their preliminary nature, the Company has provided ranges, rather than specific amounts. As such, the Company's actual results may materially vary from the preliminary results presented herein and will not be finalized until the company reports its final results for its first quarter of fiscal 2022 after the completion of its normal quarter end accounting procedures. In addition, any statements regarding the Company's estimated financial condition or performance for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 do not present all information necessary for an understanding of the Company's financial condition and results of operations as of and for the quarterly period ended April 1, 2022. Investors should exercise caution in relying on this information, and should not draw any inferences from this information regarding financial or operating data not provided. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This document contains adjusted EBITDA, which is considered a “non-GAAP” financial measure under applicable SEC rules and regulations. Adjusted EBITDA represents amounts prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) and adjusts for certain items that management believes are not reflective of the operational performance of the business. Consolidated adjusted EBITDA represents net loss adjusted for interest expense, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain items that management believes are not reflective of the operational performance of the business and additional adjustments. These adjustments include, but are not limited to, restructuring charges, net; non-restructuring impairment charges; inventory step-up expense; discontinued operations; changes in fair value of contingent consideration obligations; significant legal and environmental charges; divestitures; separation costs; gain on debt extinguishment, net; unrealized loss (gain) on equity investment; R&D upfront payments; reorganization items, net; share-based compensation and other items identified by the company. The Company has provided this adjusted financial measure because it is used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the company's operating performance. In addition, the Company believes that this adjusted financial measure will be used by certain investors to measure Mallinckrodt's operating results. Management believes that presenting this adjusted measure provides useful information about the Company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of its core operating performance. Reconciliations of this adjusted financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is included herein. This non-GAAP information should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, other companies may define non-GAAP measures differently, which limits the usefulness of these measures for comparisons with such other companies. We encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
