NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS AND PROXY STATEMENT

Varex Imaging Corporation will hold its annual meeting of stockholders on Thursday, February 15, 2018 at 4:30 p.m. Mountain Time at its headquarters at 1678 S. Pioneer Road, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104.

This annual meeting is being held for the following purposes:

The Board of Directors has selected December 18, 2017 as the record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting. A list of stockholders as of that date will be available for inspection during ordinary business hours at our principal executive offices at 1678 S. Pioneer Road, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104 for 10 days before the annual meeting.

Except for those stockholders that have already requested printed copies of our proxy materials, we are furnishing our proxy materials for this annual meeting to you through the Internet. On or about January 3, 2018, we mailed to stockholders as of the record date a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice"). Certain stockholders who previously requested email notice in lieu of mail received the Notice by email. If you received a Notice by mail or email, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you specifically request one. Instead, the Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in our Proxy Statement and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2017 (which was posted on the internet on January 3, 2018), as well as how to submit your proxy over the Internet. We believe that mailing or emailing the Notice and posting other materials on the Internet allows us to provide you with the information you need more quickly while lowering the costs of delivery and reducing the environmental impact of the annual meeting. If you received the Notice and would still like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you may request a printed copy of the proxy materials by any of the following methods: through the Internet at www.proxyvote.com ; by telephone at 1-800-579-1639 or by sending an email to [email protected] .

Whether or not you plan to attend the annual meeting, please vote your shares as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided to you to ensure that your vote is counted at the annual meeting.

PROXY SUMMARY

This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this Proxy Statement. This summary does not contain all of the information you should consider, and you should read the entire Proxy Statement carefully before voting. Varex Imaging Corporation ("we," "us" or the "Company") is an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act"), and, as such, is allowed to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that apply to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, but not limited to, reduced disclosure with respect to financial statements and executive compensation, elimination of compliance with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, and exemption from the requirements to hold a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation.

Varex Imaging Corporation, a Delaware corporation formed in 2016, is a leading innovator, designer and manufacturer of X-ray imaging components, which include X-ray tubes, digital flat panel detectors and linear accelerators, which are key components of X-ray imaging systems. Prior to January 28, 2017, the Company was a business unit and then wholly-owned subsidiary of Varian Medical Systems, Inc. ("Varian"). On January 28, 2017, Varian completed its separation and distribution of the Company (the "Spin-off"). As a result of the Spin-off, the Company became an independent publicly-traded company.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Q: Who is soliciting my proxy? A: The Board of the Company is sending you this Proxy Statement in connection with the Board's solicitation of proxies for use at the 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders or any adjournment or postponement thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). Certain of our directors, officers and employees also may solicit proxies on the Board's behalf by mail, telephone, email or fax or in person. We have hired Georgeson Inc., 480 Washington Blvd., Jersey City, New Jersey 07310, to assist in soliciting proxies from brokers, bank nominees and other stockholders. Q: Who is paying for this solicitation? A: We will pay for the solicitation of proxies. Our directors, officers and employees will not receive additional remuneration. We expect that we will pay Georgeson Inc. not more than $10,000, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, and also will reimburse banks, brokers, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable charges and expenses to forward our proxy materials to the beneficial owners of our common stock. Q: What am I voting on? A: You will be voting on two proposals. Proposal One is for the election of Erich R. Reinhardt to the Board for a three-year term ending at the 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Q: Who can vote? A: Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on December 18, 2017 may vote. Each share of common stock outstanding on that date is entitled to one vote on all matters to come before the meeting. Q: Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials this year instead of a full set of proxy materials? A: Pursuant to rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials (consisting of the Notice of Annual Meeting, this Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2017) over the Internet. Therefore, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice") to our stockholders. Starting on the date of distribution of the Notice, all stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the Internet or to request printed copies may be found in the Notice. If you request printed versions of the proxy materials by mail, the materials will also include a proxy card or other voting instruction form. Q: Can I receive proxy materials for future annual meetings by email rather than receiving a paper copy of the Notice? A: If you are a holder of record, you may elect to receive the Notice or other future proxy materials by email by logging into www.proxyvote.com and entering your email address before you vote if you are voting by Internet or any time at www.computershare.com/investor or http://enroll.icsdelivery.com/vrex . If your shares are registered in street name, please check with your broker, bank or other nominee about how to receive future proxy materials by email, or enroll at http://enroll.icsdelivery.com/vrex . If you choose to receive proxy materials by email, next year you will

Table of Contents

Q: What is the difference between a stockholder of record and a "street name" holder? A: If your shares are registered directly in your name with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., our stock transfer agent, you are considered the stockholder of record for those shares.

Q: How do I vote and how do I revoke my proxy? A: If you hold your shares in your own name as a stockholder of record, you may vote your shares either in person at the meeting or by proxy. To vote in person, please bring a form of identification, such as a valid driver's license or passport, and proof that you were a stockholder as of December 18, 2017, and we will give you a ballot when you arrive. To vote by proxy, please vote in one of the following ways: 1. Via the Internet . You may vote through the Internet at www.proxyvote.com by following the instructions provided in the Notice. 2. Via Telephone . If you received your proxy materials or request printed copies by mail, stockholders located in the United States may vote by calling the toll-free number found on the proxy card. 3.

Table of Contents

Q: What is the deadline for submitting a proxy? A: Telephone and Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day. In order to be counted, proxies submitted by telephone or the Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on February 14, 2018. Proxies submitted by mail must be received prior to the start of the Annual Meeting. Q: What constitutes a quorum? A: On the record date, we had 37,752,801 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value, outstanding. Voting can take place at the Annual Meeting only if stockholders owning a majority of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting are present in person or represented by proxy. Q: What are abstentions and broker non-votes and how do they affect voting? A: Abstentions If you specify that you wish to "abstain" from voting on an item, your shares will not be voted on that particular item. Abstentions are counted toward establishing a quorum. Abstention have no effect on the election of directors and are included in the shares entitled to vote on Proposal Two. On Proposal Two, abstentions have the effect of a vote against the proposal.

Q: What vote is needed? A: For Proposal One, the election of directors, a majority of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting at which a quorum is present shall elect the Director Nominee. For purposes of the election of directors, a "majority of votes cast" means that the number of shares voted "for" a director's election exceeds 50% of the number of votes cast with respect to that director's election. Votes cast shall include direction to withhold authority in each case and exclude abstentions with respect to that director's election.

Q: What happens if the director nominee does not receive a majority of votes cast at the Annual Meeting? A: In an uncontested election, if a nominee for director who is an incumbent director is not elected and no successor has been elected at the Annual Meeting, the director shall promptly tender his or her resignation to the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (the "Nominating Committee") shall make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the tendered resignation, or whether other action should be taken. The Board shall act on the tendered resignation, taking into account the Nominating Committee's recommendation, and

Table of Contents

Q: Can I vote on other matters? A: You are entitled to vote on any other matters that are properly brought before the Annual Meeting. Our Bylaws limit the business conducted at any annual meeting to (1) business in the notice of the Annual Meeting, (2) business directed by the Board and (3) business brought by a stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting so long as the stockholder has met the requirements for submitting stockholder proposals provided in our Bylaws. Under our Bylaws, a stockholder must notify our Secretary in writing (at our Salt Lake City, Utah headquarters) of the proposal not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days before the anniversary of the prior year's annual meeting, which for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be no earlier than October 18, 2018 and no later than November 17, 2018. The notice must give a brief description of the business to be brought before the Annual Meeting, the reasons for conducting the business and the text of the proposal, as well as the name and address of the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner on whose behalf the proposal is made, the number of shares owned and information about that beneficial ownership, all as detailed in our Bylaws. The notice must also describe any material interest the stockholder or beneficial owner has in the business and arrangements between such stockholder or beneficial owner and any other person in connection with the proposal and must include certain representations, all as detailed in our Bylaws.

Q: When must I submit a proposal for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders? A: To have your stockholder proposal be considered for presentation in the proxy statement and proxy card for our 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, rather than just voted upon at the meeting without inclusion in the proxy statement and proxy card, a stockholder must submit to our Secretary (at our Salt Lake City, Utah headquarters) a written proposal no later than September 5, 2018. The submission must contain the information required under Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Q: How do I suggest potential candidates for director positions? A: A stockholder may suggest one or more potential candidates for consideration by the Board as nominees for election as one of our directors at an annual meeting of stockholders. This can be done by notifying our Corporate Secretary in writing (at our Salt Lake City, Utah headquarters) not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days before the anniversary of the prior year's annual meeting, which for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders will be no earlier than October 18, 2018 and no later than November 17, 2018. The notice must include all information about the potential candidate that must be disclosed in proxy solicitations pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act (including the potential candidate's written consent to being named as a nominee and serving as a director) and a description of all material monetary agreements during

Table of Contents

Q: How does the Board select nominees for election to the Board? A: The Nominating Committee will consider potential candidates for directors submitted by stockholders, in addition to those suggested by other Board members and members of our management, and does not evaluate potential candidates differently based upon the source of the potential candidate. The Nominating Committee considers and evaluates each properly submitted potential candidate for director in an effort to achieve a balance of skills and characteristics on the Board, as well as to ensure that the composition of the Board at all times adheres to the independence requirements applicable to NASDAQ-listed companies and other regulatory requirements applicable to us. Please refer to "Proposal OneElection of Directors" and our Corporate Governance Guidelines for additional details on our policy, process and membership criteria. A stockholder may recommend potential candidates for director by notifying our Corporate Secretary in writing (at our Salt Lake City, Utah headquarters) as detailed in the question and answer above. Q: How may I communicate with the Board? A: Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate directly with the Board, the Board's Chairman or any other director or with the independent directors as a group or any other group of directors through the Board's Chairman by sending an email to [email protected]. Messages received will be forwarded to the appropriate director or directors. Q: When and where is the Annual Meeting being held? A: The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, February 15, 2018 at 4:30 p.m. Mountain Time at our headquarters at 1678 S. Pioneer Road, Salt Lake City, Utah 84104. If you need directions to the Annual Meeting so that you may attend or vote in person, please contact our Investor Relations department at [email protected]. Q: How can I find the results of the Annual Meeting? A: Preliminary results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final results also will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If the official results are not available at that time, we will provide preliminary voting results in the Form 8-K and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

BOXING PARAGRAPH(S)

BOARD RECOMMENDATION

VOTE " FOR " THE NOMINEE

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Our Board; Selection of Nominees

Our Board is divided into three classes. Erich R. Reinhardt and Dow R. Wilson have terms expiring at the first annual meeting following the Spin-off, Christine A. Tsingos and Jay K. Kunkel have terms expiring at the second annual meeting following the Spin-off and Ruediger Naumann-Etienne, Sunny S. Sanyal and Jocelyn D. Chertoff have terms expiring at the third annual meeting following the Spin-off. Currently, directors are elected to a three-year term.

As discussed above, the current terms of Dr. Reinhardt and Mr. Wilson will expire at the Annual Meeting. Dr. Reinhardt has been recommended by the Nominating Committee and nominated by the Board for election by the stockholders to a three-year term. As contemplated as part of the Spin-off, Mr. Wilson will not stand for re-election as a director of the Company. Because a replacement for Mr. Wilson has not yet been identified, the Board, in accordance with the Company's Bylaws, has reduced the size of the Board from seven members to six effective immediately following the Annual Meeting.

In accordance with our certificate of incorporation, commencing with our 2020 Annual Meeting we will begin to declassify our board as follows: (i) commencing with the class of directors standing for election at our 2020 Annual Meeting, directors will stand for election for a two-year term; (ii) commencing with the class of directors standing for election at our 2021 Annual Meeting, directors will stand for election for a one-year term; and (iii) commencing with our 2022 Annual Meeting, and at each annual meeting thereafter, all directors will stand for election for a one-year term.

Our Nominating Committee is charged with identifying, evaluating and recommending to the full Board director nominees. There are no minimum qualifications for directors. The Nominating Committee generally seeks individuals who have or provide:

We believe that all of our directors should be committed to enhancing stockholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience. Their service on other boards of public companies should be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform and carry out all director duties in a responsible manner. The Board believes that directors who are full-time employees of other companies

should not serve on more than three public company boards at one time, and that directors who are retired from full-time employment should not serve on more than four public company boards. Each director must also represent the interests of all stockholders.

When seeking new director candidates, the Nominating Committee will consider potential candidates for directors submitted by Board members, members of our management and our stockholders. The Nominating Committee does not evaluate candidates differently based upon the source of the nominee.

The individual named as proxyholders will vote your proxy for the election of the nominee unless you direct them to withhold your vote. If the nominee becomes unable to serve as a director before the Annual Meeting (or decides not to serve), the individuals named as proxyholders may vote for a substitute.

Set forth below are the names and ages of the nominee and the other continuing directors, the years they became directors, their principal occupations or employment for at least the past five years, the names of other public companies for which they serve as a director or have served as a director during the past five years. Also set forth are the specific experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led our Nominating Committee to conclude that each person should serve as a director. All of our directors have held high-level positions in their fields and have experience in dealing with complex issues. We believe that each is an individual of high character and integrity and has the ability to exercise sound judgment.

The Board has determined that Dr. Chertoff, Mr. Kunkel, Dr. Naumann-Etienne, Dr. Reinhardt, and Ms. Tsingos are "independent" for purposes of the NASDAQ listing requirements and under our Corporate Governance Guidelines. Mr. Sanyal, our President and CEO, is an employee and therefore not "independent." Mr. Wilson is the CEO of Varian, our former parent company, and therefore not "independent." The Board considered transactions and relationships, both direct and indirect, between each director (and his or her immediate family) and the Company and its subsidiaries and affirmatively determined that none of Dr. Chertoff, Mr. Kunkel, Dr. Naumann-Etienne, Dr. Reinhardt, and Ms. Tsingos has any material relationship, either direct or indirect, with us other than as a director and stockholder.

The Board met three times in fiscal year 2017. Each of the three Board meetings included executive sessions of either the independent directors or the non-management directors, or both, with Dr. Naumann-Etienne presiding at such meetings. We have three standing committees of the Board: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating Committee. Each current director attended at least 75% of the total Board meetings and meetings of the committees on which they served that were held in fiscal year 2017. Directors are encouraged to attend meetings of committees on which they do not serve as members.

The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines designed to promote the functioning of the Board and its committees. These Guidelines and our Bylaws address Board composition, Board functions and responsibilities, qualifications, leadership structure, committees and meetings.

Our Bylaws require that the Chairman of the Board be chosen from among the directors and may not be the CEO. The Board has determined that having Dr. Naumann-Etienne, who is "independent" within the meaning of the NASDAQ listing standards, serve as Chairman and Mr. Sanyal serve as CEO is in the best interests of the stockholders. We have separated the roles of CEO and Chairman in recognition of the differences between the two roles. The CEO is responsible for setting our strategic direction and for our day-to-day leadership and performance, while the Chairman provides guidance to

the CEO and leads the Board. The Board believes its administration of its risk oversight function has not affected the Board's leadership structure.

Our Company faces a number of risks, including operational, economic, financial, legal, regulatory and competitive risks. Our management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks we face. While our Board, as a whole, has ultimate responsibility for the oversight of risk management, it administers its risk oversight role in part through the Board committee structure, with the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and the Nominating Committee responsible for monitoring and reporting on the material risks associated with their respective subject matter areas.

The Board's role in our risk oversight process includes receiving regular reports from members of senior management, as well as external advisors such as PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), on areas of material risk to us, including operational, economic, financial, legal, regulatory and competitive risks. The full Board (or the appropriate committee in the case of risks that are reviewed by a particular committee) receives these reports from those responsible for the relevant risk in order to enable it to understand our risk exposures and the steps that management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. When a committee receives the report, the Chairman of the relevant committee generally provides a summary to the full Board at the next Board meeting. This enables the Board and its committees to coordinate the risk oversight role. The Audit Committee assists the Board in oversight and monitoring of principal risk exposures related to financial statements, legal, ethical compliance, regulatory and other matters, as well as related mitigation efforts. The Compensation Committee assesses, at least annually, the risks associated with our compensation policies. The Nominating Committee assists the Board in oversight of risks that we have relative to compliance with corporate governance standards.

Each of our standing committees has a written charter approved by the Board that clearly establishes the committee's roles and responsibilities.

Each member of the Audit Committee meets the additional requirements regarding independence for Audit Committee members under NASDAQ listing requirements. The Board has determined that Ms. Tsingos is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act based upon her experience as the chief financial officer of Bio-Rad Laboratories since 2002 and as the chief financial officer of Attest Systems, Inc. between 2000 and 2002. The Board has determined that Mr. Kunkel is financially literate based on his experience as the head of corporate finance and M&A advisory at PwC, as well as other business experience. The Board has determined that Dr. Naumann-Etienne is financially literate based upon his experience as the chief financial officer and principal accounting officer of Diasonics, Inc. between 1984 and 1987 and as group controller for Texas Instruments Inc. between 1982 and 1984, and his formal education represented by his doctorate degree in international finance from the University of Michigan.

The Compensation Committee determines all compensation for our executive group. Before making decisions on compensation for each of the executives other than the CEO, the Compensation Committee reviews with our CEO each individual's performance and accomplishments over the prior year. Except for his own position, our CEO makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee about base salary increases, any changes to the incentive plan target awards and the amount of equity awards for each executive. However, the Compensation Committee retains and does not delegate any of its exclusive power to determine all matters of executive compensation and benefits for executive officers. The Compensation Committee meets alone with its independent advisors to develop and

establish a proposal for CEO pay. This proposal is also reviewed with the other independent members of the Board.

To independently assist and advise the Compensation Committee, the Compensation Committee has retained Pay Governance LLC as its compensation consultant since 2017. The engagement with Pay Governance is exclusively with the Compensation Committee, which has sole authority to retain and terminate any compensation consultant or other advisor that it uses. Pay Governance has no relationship with the Company or management except as it may relate to performing services on behalf of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has assessed the independence of Pay Governance pursuant to SEC rules and concluded that no conflict of interest exists that would prevent it from independently representing the Compensation Committee.

The compensation consultant reviews and analyzes our executive compensation programs, compensation strategy and effectiveness of pay delivery. The compensation consultant provides market information on compensation trends and practices and makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee based on competitive data. The compensation consultant advises the Compensation Committee chair on agenda items for Compensation Committee meetings, reviews management proposals and is available to perform special projects at the Compensation Committee chair's request. The compensation consultant also periodically provides the Compensation Committee with updates on regulatory and legislative developments pertaining to executive compensation and compensation committee governance. The compensation consultant provides analyses and recommendations that inform the Compensation Committee's decisions, but does not decide or approve any compensation actions. As needed, the Compensation Committee also consults with the compensation consultant on program design changes.

In addition to being independent, each member of the Compensation Committee is a "non-employee director" for purposes of the Exchange Act and is an "outside director" for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code").

The Audit Committee has appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm to perform the audit of our financial statements for fiscal year 2018, and we are asking you and other stockholders to ratify this appointment.

The Audit Committee annually reviews the independent registered public accounting firm's independence, including reviewing all relationships between the independent registered public accounting firm and us and any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the independent registered public accounting firm, and the independent registered public accounting firm's performance. Our Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of our independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee is also involved in the selection of the lead audit engagement partner whenever a rotational change is required, normally every five years.

As a matter of good corporate governance, the Board, upon recommendation of the Audit Committee, has determined to submit to stockholders for ratification the appointment of PwC. In the event that a majority of the shares of common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on Proposal Two does not ratify this appointment of PwC, the Audit Committee will review its future appointment of PwC.

We expect that a representative of PwC will be present at the Annual Meeting and that representative will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally requested annually and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service, which must be classified in one of the four categories of services. The Audit Committee may also, on a case-by-case basis, pre-approve particular services that are not contained in the annual pre-approval request. In connection with this pre-approval policy, the Audit Committee also considers whether the categories of pre-approved services are consistent with the rules on accountant independence of the SEC.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee") consists of the four directors whose names appear below. Each member of the Audit Committee meets the definition of "independent director" and otherwise qualifies to be a member of the Audit Committee under NASDAQ listing requirements.

The Audit Committee's general role is to assist the Board in monitoring the Company's financial reporting process and related matters. Its specific responsibilities are set forth in its charter. The Audit Committee reviews its charter at least annually, and did so in the August 2017 Audit Committee meeting.

As required by the charter, the Audit Committee reviewed the Company's financial statements for fiscal year 2017 and met with management, as well as with representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, to discuss the financial statements. The Audit Committee also discussed with members of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 16, Communications with Audit Committees .

In addition, the Audit Committee received the written disclosures and letters required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with members of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP its independence from management and the Company.

Based on these discussions, the financial statement review and other matters it deemed relevant, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the Company's audited financial statements for fiscal year 2017 be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 29, 2017.

Furthermore, in connection with the standards for independence promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Audit Committee reviewed the services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the fees the Company paid for these services, and whether the provision of the services is compatible with maintaining the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee deemed that the provision of the services is compatible with maintaining that independence.

The Audit Committee has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to be the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2018. In doing so, the Audit Committee considered the results from its review of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's independence, including (a) all relationships between PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and the Company and any disclosed relationships or services that may impact their objectivity and independence, (b) PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP's performance and qualification as an independent registered public accounting firm and (c) the fact that the PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP engagement audit partner is rotated on a regular basis as required by applicable laws and regulations. As a matter of good corporate governance, the Audit Committee has determined to submit its appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to the stockholders for ratification. In the event that a majority of the shares of common stock present or represented at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the matter does not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee will review its future appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP.

Under U.S. securities laws, directors, certain officers and persons holding more than 10% of our common stock must report their initial ownership of the common stock and any changes in that ownership to the SEC. The SEC has designated specific due dates for these reports and we must identify in this Proxy Statement those persons who did not file these reports when due.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following discussion describes certain aspects of the compensation program for our named executive officers ("NEOs"). As an "emerging growth company" we have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Executive Summary

In January 2017, the Company separated from Varian and became a separate publicly traded company. Due to the timing of the Spin-off, our executives were initially compensated under the executive compensation program established by Varian until the Spin-off was consummated. In addition, Varian's Compensation and Management Development Committee (the "Varian Compensation Committee") approved the design of our fiscal 2017 annual cash incentive program. For fiscal year 2018, the Compensation Committee reviewed and revised our executive compensation program to better align its targeted results with our business strategy and objectives as a stand-alone, publicly-traded company. These changes included adopting an annual cash incentive plan that includes free cash flow and EBITDA margin percentage performance measures as well as a revenue growth measure.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Business HighlightsStrategic Transformation

Fiscal year 2017 was transformational for the Company, as we completed the Spin-off and embarked upon a number of operational and capital initiatives to position our business for future growth.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Compensation Program Overview

The Compensation Committee believes that attracting, motivating and retaining a team of high-performing executives with strong industry expertise is critical to advancing the interests of stockholders. To promote these objectives, the Compensation Committee is guided by a pay for performance philosophy that helps us attract key talent, align with shareholders, create long term value and recognize individual performance, experience and knowledge in making compensation decisions.

Pay for Performance. Our executive compensation programs are heavily weighted towards performance-based compensation that provides a direct link between corporate performance and pay outcomes for our executives. Our programs also tie pay outcomes to the achievement of key strategic objectives that we believe will drive longer-term value to stockholders. The Compensation Committee regularly assesses our programs to ensure they are aligned with the Company's evolving business strategy and are effective in supporting its talent needs.

The grant date fair value for RSU awards granted in 2017 was determined using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the grant date multiplied by the number of shares subject to the award. The grant date fair value for RSU awards granted during fiscal year 2016 was determined using the closing price of Varian's common stock on the grant date multiplied by the number of shares subject to the award. The grant date fair value for PSU awards granted during fiscal year 2016 was based on the probable outcome of the performance conditions using the Monte Carlo simulation model on the grant date with assumptions as set forth in Note 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Varian's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2016, excluding the effect of estimated forfeitures.

Such amount for Ms. Honeysett includes a reimbursement for taxes in the amount of $85,268.

Salary: During fiscal year 2017, except for the change in control agreements discussed below, none of the NEOs had a written employment agreement with the Company, but were and remain "at-will" employees. Following the completion of the Spin-Off, each NEO's base salary rate was adjusted based on competitive market rates and set below the competitive market 25 th percentile as part of the Company's pay strategy to emphasize performance-based incentives. NEO salaries were as follows: Mr. Sanyal, $600,000; Mr. Verhoef, $375,000; and Ms. Honeysett, $325,000.

Stock and Option Awards: In fiscal year 2017, the Compensation Committee granted long-term equity compensation to the NEOs in the form of nonqualified stock option and RSU awards to further incentivize and retain the executives. The stock option and RSU awards were granted on February 16, 2017 under the Company's 2017 Omnibus Stock Plan. Each NEO received a stock option award that vests over four years with 25% of the shares covered by the stock option vesting on February 15, 2018 and the remainder vesting monthly during the following 36-month period. Each NEO also received a RSU award that vests over four years, with 25% of the shares covered by the award vesting each year, beginning on February 15, 2018. In addition, Messrs. Sanyal and Verhoef each received stock option awards to replace the value of the portion of their Varian PSU awards which was forfeited as a result of the Spin-Off. Stock option awards granted to replace Varian PSUs that were forfeited with two years remaining in the performance period will vest on February 15, 2019 and stock option awards granted to replace Varian PSUs that were forfeited with one year remaining in the performance period will vest on February 15, 2018.

Vesting of the stock option and RSU awards will occur only if the NEO is employed by the Company or an affiliate through each vesting date, except in cases involving death, disability, or termination without cause or good reason in the change of control context. Additionally, such awards will accelerate in the event of certain corporate transactions if such awards are not assumed, continued or substituted. See "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control."

Additional information about equity awards granted in fiscal year 2017 is provided below in the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End table.

Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation: The amounts in the "Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation" column of the Summary Compensation Table represent the actual cash incentive awards earned by the NEOs under an annual cash incentive plan for fiscal 2017 that was established under Varian's Management Incentive Plan. For fiscal year 2017, the Varian Compensation Committee established a pool of funds of up to 3% of the Company's fiscal year 2017 EBIT to be available for annual cash incentives payable to the NEOs and expressed a maximum percentage of such pool for each NEO. Under the plan, the Compensation Committee retained discretion to reduce each NEO's maximum share of such pool, based all or in part on EBIT and top line growth metrics set by Varian, individual performance and other factors determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion. Under this framework, the Compensation Committee determined the actual fiscal 2017 annual cash incentive payouts as a percentage of each NEO's target award opportunity were as follows. These payments were based on a variety of factors including the successful spin off of the Company from Varian and the completion of the acquisition of the medical imaging business of Perkin Elmer.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

In January 2017, each of the NEOs entered into a Change in Control Agreement (each, a "CIC Agreement") that was approved by our Board of Directors. Under the CIC Agreements, if the Company terminates the NEO's employment other than by reason of death, disability, retirement or "cause", or if the NEO voluntarily terminates for "good reason", in either case, within 60 days prior to, or 18 months following, a change in control of the Company, then the NEO will be entitled to: (i) a lump sum severance payment, (ii) a lump sum payment equal to a pro-rata portion of the NEO's target

ZEQ.=5,SEQ=36,EFW="2234145",CP="VAREX IMAGING CORPORATION",DN="1",CHK=63073,FOLIO='32',FILE='DISK103:[17ZDL1.17ZDL74201]DE74201A.;36',USER='CHE108055',CD='28-DEC-2017;21:37'

bonus under the Company's annual incentive plan, (iii) full vesting of all outstanding stock options and stock awards, and (iv) up to 18 months of Company paid COBRA premiums; provided, however, that if the payment of COBRA premiums violates applicable law, the NEO will instead receive a taxable lump sum payment equal to 18 months of COBRA premiums.

The amount of the lump sum severance payment in the case of each of the NEOs will be equal to a multiple of the sum of: (A) the NEO's base salary and (B) the greater of (x) the NEO's most recently established target annual bonus under the Company's annual cash incentive plan and (y) the average annual cash incentive that was paid to the NEO in the three fiscal years ending prior to the date of termination under the Company's annual cash incentive plan or the Varian MIP. The severance multiple for Mr. Sanyal is 2.5 and the severance multiple for Mr. Verhoef and Ms. Honeysett is 2.0. If the NEO has not completed at least three full fiscal years of service with the Company prior to the NEO's termination date, then the amount determined in (y) above will be based on the average annual cash incentive for the number of full fiscal years that the NEO has completed.

As a condition to receiving such severance benefits, an NEO must execute a release of all of his rights and claims relating to his employment and comply with certain post-termination restrictions, including, among other things, continuing to comply with the terms of his proprietary information and non-disclosure agreement, and for a period of 12 months, complying with certain non-solicitation and non-competition provisions that are set forth in the NEO's CIC Agreement.

In addition, if within 18 months after a change in control, the NEO incurs a separation from service by reason of the NEO's death or disability, the NEO or, if applicable, the NEO's estate will be entitled to death or long-term disability benefits from the Company no less favorable than the most favorable benefits to which the NEO would have been entitled had the death or disability occurred at any time during the period commencing one year prior to the change in control under the plans of the Company.

The CIC Agreements with the NEOs do not provide for tax gross-ups of payments subject to the "golden parachute" excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Each CIC Agreement instead contains a "better after-tax" provision, which provides that if any of the payments to the NEO constitutes a parachute payment under Section 280G of the Code, the payments will either be (i) reduced or (ii) provided in full to the NEO, whichever results in the NEO receiving the greater amount after taking into consideration the payment of all taxes, including the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code.

For stock option awards granted by Varian, if the NEO's employment terminates due to retirement, his or her unvested stock options will continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting schedules following the termination date. If the NEO's service terminates due to death, his or her unvested stock options will fully vest on such termination date. In addition, for stock option awards granted by Varian on or after November 9, 2015 but before the Spin-Off, if the NEO's service terminates due to death, his or her unvested stock options will fully vest on such termination date. Stock options may be exercisable for up to three years from the date the NEO's employment terminates due to retirement or death and one year from the date the NEO's employment terminates due to disability, unless in each case the stock option term expires earlier.

For RSU awards granted by Varian, if the NEO's service terminates due to retirement, then his or her RSU awards will continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting schedule. If the NEO's service terminates due to death, his or her RSU awards will fully vest on such termination date. In addition, for RSU awards granted by Varian on or after November 9, 2015 but before the Spin-Off, if the NEO's service terminates due to disability, then his or her RSU awards will continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting schedule.

Under the 2017 Stock Plan, except as otherwise provided in the NEOs' equity agreements, in the event of certain corporate transactions, if the Compensation Committee does not provide for the assumption, continuation or substitution of stock awards, each stock award will fully vest and terminate upon the consummation of the transaction, provided that holders of stock options or stock appreciation rights ("SARs") will be given reasonable advance notice of the impending termination and a reasonable opportunity to exercise their outstanding vested stock options and SARs before the termination of such awards. The NEOs' equity agreements under the 2017 Stock Plan provide that if the applicable NEO's employment terminates due to death or disability, his or her unvested stock option and RSU awards will fully vest upon such termination. Stock options may be exercisable for up to three years from the date his or her employment terminates due to death and one year from the date his or her employment terminates due to disability, unless in each case the stock option term expires earlier.

(1) This column represents the aggregate grant date fair value of DSUs granted in fiscal year 2017, computed in accordance with ASC 718. The grant date fair value for DSU awards granted in 2017 was determined using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the grant date multiplied by the number of shares subject to the award. These amounts reflect our calculation of the value of these awards, and do not necessarily correspond to the actual value that may ultimately be realized by the directors. (2) Includes meeting fees paid by Varian to Dr. Reinhardt and Dr. Naumann-Etienne while serving as members of Varian's board of directors during the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 ($4,500 in the case of Dr. Reinhardt and $10,500 in the case of Dr. Naumann-Etienne).

The Compensation Committee will periodically initiate a review of non-employee director compensation (including cash retainer and meeting fees and equity awards) and recommend changes to the full Board of Directors, who determines the compensation of directors. Changes to non-employee director compensation would be made to ensure that compensation levels are market-competitive and that the compensation structure supports our business objectives, aligns with the interests of stockholders, reflects competitive best practice and is cost- and tax-effective.

No changes are anticipated for non-employee director compensation (including cash retainer and meeting fees and equity awards) in fiscal year 2018.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Review, Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions

The Nominating Committee is responsible for the review, approval or ratification of "related person transactions" between the Company or its subsidiaries and related persons. Under SEC rules, a related person is a director, nominee for director or executive officer since the beginning of the last fiscal year, or a more than five percent stockholder, and their immediate family members. Such transactions may include employment or consulting relationships with a related person or contracts under which we receive goods or services from (or provide goods and services to) a related person or a company for which the related person is an employee or otherwise affiliated. The Board has adopted written policies and procedures that apply to any transaction or series of transactions in which the Company or one of its subsidiaries is a participant and a related person has a direct or indirect material interest. Generally for a transaction to be approved, the Nominating Committee must be informed or have knowledge of (i) the related person's relationship to the Company and interest in the transaction; (ii) the material facts of the proposed transaction, including a description of the nature and potential aggregate value of the proposed transaction; (iii) the benefits, if any, to the Company of the proposed transaction; (iv) if applicable, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services; and (v) an assessment of whether the proposed transaction or situation is on terms that are comparable to the terms available to an unrelated third party or to employees generally.

The Nominating Committee has, however, determined that a related person does not have a direct or indirect material interest in the following categories of transactions:

Transactions involving related persons that are not included in one of the above categories are forwarded to our legal department to determine whether the related person could have a direct or indirect material interest in the transaction, and any such transaction is forwarded to the Nominating Committee for review. The Nominating Committee determines whether the related person has a material interest in a transaction and may approve, ratify, terminate or take other action with respect to the transaction in its discretion.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Transactions with Related Persons

Except as set forth below, all potential related party transactions during fiscal year 2017 were included in one of the above categories.

Dow R. Wilson, a director of the Company, is the CEO of Varian. During fiscal year 2017, the Company recorded sales to Varian of $24.6 million and recorded purchases of products from Varian of $1.9 million.
