Our executive offices are located at an owned facility in Teterboro, New Jersey and
at leased facilities in Lyndhurst, New Jersey. We also lease a site in
Norristown, Pennsylvania, that serves as a billing center; a site in San
Clemente, California, that serves as the main facility for Nichols Institute
Diagnostics; a site in Cincinnati that serves as the main office for MedPlus;
and an additional site in West Hills, California, that will serve as our
regional laboratory in the Los Angeles metropolitan area after we complete the
integration of Unilab. We also own an
administrative office in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, and a site in Norriton,
Pennsylvania, that serves as our national data center. We own our laboratory facility in Mexico
City and lease laboratory facilities in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and near London,
England. We believe that, in general, our laboratory facilities are suitable
and adequate for our current and anticipated future levels of operation. We believe that if we were unable to renew a
lease on any of our testing facilities, we could find alternative space at
competitive market rates and relocate our operations to such new location.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
In addition to the investigations described in
“Business - Government Investigations and Related Claims”, we are involved in
various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Some of
the proceedings against us involve claims that are substantial in amount.
Although we cannot predict the outcome of such proceedings or any claims made
against us, we do not anticipate that the ultimate outcome of the various
proceedings or claims will have a material adverse effect on our financial
position, but may be material to our results of operations and cash flows in
the period in which such proceedings or claims are resolved.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
None. |
