Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Employee Retirement Committee and Participants
DENTSPLY International Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of DENTSPLY International Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental Schedule H, Line 4(i) - Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2014 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

DENTSPLY International Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2014 and 2013
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following brief description of the DENTSPLY International Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a contributory defined contribution plan covering all permanent full and part-time employees of DENTSPLY International Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the United States who are employed in or on temporary assignment outside the United States. The Plan was established January 1, 1992, and amended, subsequently, several times. On January 1, 2014, the Plan was restated to include all amendments. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).
Plan Administration
The Plan is administered by the Retirement Program Committee (the “Committee”). At December 31, 2014 and 2013, T. Rowe Price Trust Company (“TRP”) was the trustee (the “Trustee”) and custodian of the Plan's assets. The Committee and Trustee of the Plan are appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, TRP was the record keeper of the Plan.
Participation
An employee may become a participant in the Plan as soon as administratively feasible following their employment date. If the employee does not make an affirmative or negative election to participate, they will be automatically enrolled in the Plan. The Company may at times automatically increase participant’s deferral percentages by performing an “auto boost” on the entire employee population or on certain population segments to encourage participation in the Plan.
Contributions
Each year, participants may make pre-tax and post-tax (Roth) contributions up to 100% of their annual compensation, as defined by the Plan, in multiples of 1% except for certain highly compensated participants who are subject to limitations. Participants that are automatically enrolled in the Plan will be deemed to have elected a salary deferral contribution of 3%. Participants may change their deferral election at times throughout the year as defined in the Plan document. Participants may also contribute amounts representing rollovers from other qualified defined benefit or contribution plans. The Company does not make matching contributions to the Plan. Effective for the 2006 plan year and beyond, the Company, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, may make a non-elective contribution to eligible participants. Contributions are recognized in the period when earned as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. Forfeitures are used to reduce the required Company contribution. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, forfeited non-elective contributions amounted to $300,871 and $353,421, respectively. These forfeitures were used to reduce the 2014 and 2013 non-elective contributions that are recorded as receivables to the Plan at year end and were paid in 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The participants may direct their contributions into several different investment options. If a participant fails to provide such direction, including those participants automatically enrolled in the Plan, contributions are invested in the target maturity fund appropriate for the participant’s expected normal retirement age. Contributions are subject to certain Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) limitations.
The Company may amend or revoke a participant’s deferral election if the Company determines that such revocation or amendment is necessary to ensure that a participant's annual addition for any plan year will not exceed the limitation of Section 5.6(b) of the plan document, or to ensure that the actual deferral percentage nondiscrimination test is met for such plan year.
Service Rules
Employees are credited with a year of service for each plan year during which they have at least 1,000 hours of service and are employed on the last day of the year, unless there is a break in service as a result of death, disability, or retirement.
Participant Accounts
Each participant's account is credited with the participant’s contributions, company contributions including forfeitures and an allocation of Plan earnings (including unrealized appreciation or depreciation of Plan assets) and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses, if any. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined in the Plan document. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and earnings thereon. If participants cease participation, other than by retirement, disability, or death, the vested interest in non-elective contributions to their accounts is dependent upon the years of credited service, as follows:
|
| | |
Years of Service | | Percent Vested |
| | |
Less than 2 years | | —% |
2 | | 20% |
3 | | 40% |
4 | | 60% |
5 | | 80% |
6 years and after | | 100% |
Payment of Benefits
Participants are entitled to receive a distribution equal to their vested account balances upon death, retirement, termination or permanent disability. Participants may elect to receive benefits in either a lump-sum payment or periodic installments as defined by the provisions of the Plan. Assets may be withdrawn by participants in the case of personal financial hardship upon approval of the Plan Administrator.
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may borrow from their accounts the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their vested account balance (subject to a $1,000 minimum loan balance). Participants are charged a $50 fee for loans, which is paid directly from their account. Loan terms may not exceed five years, except for loans to facilitate the purchase of a primary residence. The loans bear interest at rates that range from 4.00% to 9.25% as of December 31, 2014, which are commensurate with local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan Administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions. Participants may not have more than two loans outstanding at the same time. Loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account. Access to Company Non-Elective Contribution balances is subject to the financial hardship conditions required under the hardship withdrawal provisions of the Plan.
Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. In June 2013, the loan default period was changed from 90 days to equal the IRS maximum, which is the end of the calendar quarter following the quarter in which the payment was missed. Delinquent notes receivable are recorded as distributions based upon the terms of the Plan document.
Administrative Costs
Certain administrative costs of maintaining the Plan are absorbed by the Company and are excluded from these financial statements.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:
Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Investment contracts held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value. However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets available for benefits of a defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the Plan. The Plan invests in investment contracts through a common trust fund. The Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts held in the common trust fund as well as the adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive contracts from fair value to contract value. The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value basis.
Investments Valuation and Income Recognition
Investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note 3, Fair Value Measurements, for additional details.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Net appreciation includes the Plan’s gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the years. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Investment Fees
Net investment returns reflect certain fees paid by the investment funds to their affiliated investment advisors, transfer agents, and others as further described in each fund prospectus or other published documents. These fees are deducted prior to allocation of the Plan’s investment earnings activity and thus are not separately identifiable as an expense.
Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments to participants are recorded when paid.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) requires the Plan Administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.
NOTE 3 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
The Plan measures its investments at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with US GAAP. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The framework that the authoritative guidance establishes for measuring fair value includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in determining valuations into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
|
| | | | |
Level 1: | Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Plan for identical assets. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and are used to measure fair value whenever available. |
|
| | | | |
Level 2: | Fair value is based on significant inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset through corroboration with observable market data. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets, and other observable inputs. |
| |
Level 3: | Fair value would be based on significant unobservable inputs. Examples of valuation methodologies that would result in Level 3 classification include option pricing models, discounted cash flows, and similar techniques. |
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2014 and 2013:
Common Stock
Valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.
Registered Investment Companies
Registered investment companies include mutual funds and are valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund. Mutual funds held by the Plan are open-end mutual funds that are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These funds are required to publish their daily Net Asset Value ("NAV") and to transact at that price. The mutual funds held by the Plan are deemed to be actively traded.
Common Trust
The common trust funds are valued based upon the units of the common trust funds held by the Plan at year end times the respective unit value. The unit value of the common trust funds is based upon significant observable inputs, although it is not based upon quoted market prices in an active market. The Stable Value Trust Fund's investment objective is to seek the preservation of capital and to provide a competitive level of income over time that is consistent with the preservation of capital. To achieve its investment objective, the common trust fund invests in assets (typically fixed-income securities or insurance contracts) and enters into "wrapper" contracts issued by third-parties and invests in cash equivalents represented by shares in a money market fund.
The underlying investments of the common trust funds consist primarily of Level 2 inputs, consisting of inputs either directly or indirectly observable for substantially the full term of the asset through corroboration with observable market data. The Plan’s investments in the common trust funds are not subject to any withdrawal restrictions and distributions may be taken at any time. The Plan has no unfunded commitments relating to the common trust funds at December 31, 2014 and 2013.
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

NOTE 5 - PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan at any time, subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAX STATUS
The IRS has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated September 19, 2011, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”). Although the Plan has been amended since receiving the letter, the Plan Administrator and the Plan’s advisors believe that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, they believe the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial statement date.
US GAAP requires plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the organization has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan and has concluded that as of December 31, 2014, there are no uncertain positions taken, or expected to be taken, that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
NOTE 7 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During 2014 and 2013, certain plan investments were shares of registered investment companies and a common trust managed by T. Rowe Price Trust Company, the Trustee of the Plan. In addition, the Plan offers an investment in DENTSPLY International Inc. common stock. The transactions in these investments are party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from prohibited transaction rules of ERISA. Additionally, the Plan issues loans to participants, which are secured by the participant’s account balances. These transactions qualify as party-in-interest transactions.
Certain administrative functions of the Plan are performed by officers or employees of the Company. No such officer or employee receives compensation from the Plan.
Purchases made by the Plan for the investment in the Company’s common stock amounted to $1,839,822 and $2,044,234 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Sales made by the Plan for the investment in the Company’s common stock amounted to $3,308,292 and $2,309,341 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
As of December 31, 2014, the Plan held approximately 319,355 shares of DENTSPLY International Inc. common stock at a per share price of $53.27. As of December 31, 2013, the Plan held approximately 348,093 shares of DENTSPLY International Inc. common stock at a per share price of $48.48.
NOTE 8 - RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Investments of the Plan are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market, and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investments and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investments, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in risks in the near term would materially affect investment assets reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for benefits.
