Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Business and basis of presentation

Description of the Business

Orthofix Medical Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a global medical device company with a spine and orthopedics focus. The Company’s mission is to deliver innovative, quality-driven solutions while partnering with health care professionals to improve patient mobility. Headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, Orthofix’s spine and orthopedic products are distributed in more than 60 countries via the Company's sales representatives and distributors.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2022.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition; contractual allowances; allowances for expected credit losses; inventories; valuation of intangible assets; goodwill; fair value measurements, including contingent consideration; litigation and contingent liabilities; tax matters; and share-based compensation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

2. Recently issued accounting pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standards updates ("ASUs"). Recently issued ASUs not listed were assessed and determined not applicable, or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, there have been no material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2022, to the Company's application of significant accounting policies and estimates as described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Neo Medical Convertible Loan Agreements and Equity Investment

In October 2020, the Company purchased preferred equity securities of Neo Medical SA, a privately held Swiss-based company developing a new generation of products for spinal surgery ("Neo Medical"), for consideration of $5.0 million and entered into a Convertible Loan Agreement pursuant to which Orthofix loaned Neo Medical CHF 4.6 million, or $5.0 million at the date of issuance (the “Convertible Loan”). In October 2021, the Company entered into an additional Convertible Loan Agreement (the “Additional Convertible Loan”), pursuant to which the Company loaned Neo Medical an additional CHF 0.6 million (funded by the payment of $0.7 million as of the issuance date).

The equity securities are recorded in other long-term assets and are considered an investment that does not have a readily determinable fair value. As such, the Company measures this investment at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.

The table below presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Company’s investment in Neo Medical preferred equity securities:


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	2022		2021
Fair value of Neo Medical preferred equity securities at January 1	$	5,413	$	5,000
Conversion of loan into preferred equity securities		671		0
Fair value of Neo Medical preferred equity securities at March 31		6,084		5,000
Cumulative unrealized gain on Neo Medical preferred equity securities		413		0

The Company made an election to convert the Additional Convertible Loan into shares of Neo Medical’s preferred equity securities in January 2022. The remaining Convertible Loan is recorded in other long-term assets as an available for sale debt security as of March 31, 2022. The Convertible Loan is recorded at fair value, with applicable interest recorded in interest income. The fair value of the Convertible Loan is based upon significant unobservable inputs, including the use of option-pricing models, Monte Carlo simulations for certain periods, and a probability-weighted discounted cash flows model, requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions. Therefore, the Company categorized these investments as Level 3 financial assets.

Some of the more significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Convertible Loan include applicable discount rates, implied volatility, the likelihood and projected timing of repayment or conversion, and projected cash flows in support of the estimated enterprise value of Neo Medical. Holding other inputs constant, changes in these assumptions could result in a significant change in the fair value of the Convertible Loan. If the amortized cost of the Convertible Loan exceeds its estimated fair value, the security is deemed to be impaired, and must be evaluated for the recognition of a credit loss. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has not recognized any credit loss related to the Convertible Loan.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Convertible Loans, measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	2022			2021
Fair value of Neo Medical Convertible Loans at January 1	$	7,148		$	7,160
Interest recognized in interest income, net		112			96
Foreign currency remeasurement recognized in other expense, net		(69	)		(330	)
Unrealized loss recognized in other comprehensive income (loss)		(740	)		(726	)
Conversion of loan into preferred equity securities		(671	)		—
Fair value of Neo Medical Convertible Loans at March 31		5,780			6,200
Amortized cost basis of Neo Medical Convertible Loans at March 31		5,581			5,045

The following table provides quantitative information related to certain key assumptions utilized within the valuation as of March 31, 2022:


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	Fair Value as of March 31, 2022		Unobservable inputs	Estimate
Neo Medical Convertible Loan	$	5,780	Cost of equity discount rate		16.9	%
			Implied volatility		71.3	%

Bone Biologics Equity Securities

The Company holds an investment in common stock of Bone Biologics Inc. (“Bone Biologics”, NASDAQ: BBLG), a developer of orthobiologic products. Changes in the fair value of the investment recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, are shown in the table below:


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	2022			2021
Bone Biologics equity securities at January 1	$	309		$	—
Fair value adjustments recognized in other expense, net		(66	)		—
Bone Biologics equity securities at March 31	$	243		$	—

Other investments

Other investments represent assets and investments recorded at fair value that are not deemed to be material for disclosure on an individual basis. The fair value of these assets are based upon significant unobservable inputs, such as probability-weighted discounted cash flows models, requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions. Therefore, the Company has categorized these assets as Level 3 financial assets. As of March 31, 2022, this balance was classified within other long-term assets.

Contingent Consideration

The Company recognized a contingent consideration obligation in connection with the acquisition of Spinal Kinetics in 2018. The Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration consists of potential future milestone payments of up to $60.0 million in cash. The milestone payments included (i) $15.0 million upon U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval of the M6-C artificial cervical disc (the “FDA Milestone”) and (ii) revenue-based milestone payments of up to $45.0 million in connection with future sales of the acquired artificial discs. Milestones must be achieved within five years of April 30, 2018, to trigger applicable payments. The FDA Milestone was achieved and paid in 2019 and a revenue-based milestone payment, totaling $15.0 million, was achieved and paid in 2021 upon meeting certain net sales targets.

The estimated fair value of the remaining Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration, attributable to a revenue-based milestone, was $11.7 million as of March 31, 2022. The estimated fair value reflects assumptions made by management as of March 31, 2022, such as the expected timing and volume of elective procedures and the impact of these procedures on future revenues. However, the actual amount ultimately paid could be higher or lower than the fair value of the remaining contingent consideration (ultimate payment will either be $30.0 million or the liability will be reversed if the milestone is not met within the required timeline). As of March 31, 2022, the Company has classified the $11.7 million liability within other current liabilities, as the Company currently expects to achieve the remaining milestone in the next twelve months, if achieved. Any changes in fair value are recorded as an operating expense within acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for the Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration measured at estimated fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	2022			2021
Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration estimated fair value at January 1	$	17,200		$	35,400
Increase (decrease) in fair value recognized in acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement		(5,500	)		1,500
Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration estimated fair value at March 31	$	11,700		$	36,900

The Company estimated the fair value of the remaining potential revenue-based milestone payment using a Monte Carlo simulation and a discounted cash flow model. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. The key assumptions in applying the valuation model include the Company’s forecasted future revenues for the Motion Preservation product line (which is derived from the acquired Spinal Kinetics business), the expected timing of payment, applicable discount rates applied, and assumptions for potential volatility of the Company’s forecasted revenue. Significant changes in these assumptions could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value.

The following table provides a range of key assumptions used within the valuation as of March 31, 2022:


(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	Fair Value as of March 31, 2022		Valuation Technique	Unobservable inputs	Range
Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration	$	11,700	Discounted cash flow	Revenue discount rate	5.9% - 7.4%
				Payment discount rate	3.2% - 4.7%
				Projected year of achievement	2023

7. Contingencies

In addition to the matters described below, in the normal course of its business, the Company is involved in various lawsuits from time to time and may be subject to certain other contingencies. The Company believes any losses related to these matters are individually and collectively immaterial as to a possible loss and range of loss.

Italian Medical Device Payback (“IMDP”)

In 2015, the Italian Parliament introduced rules for entities that supply goods and services to the Italian National Healthcare System. A key provision of the law is a ‘payback’ measure, requiring medical device companies in Italy to make payments to the Italian government if medical device expenditures exceed regional maximum ceilings. Companies are required to make payments equal to a percentage of expenditures exceeding maximum regional caps. There is considerable uncertainty about how the law will operate and what the exact timeline is for finalization. The Company’s current assessment of the IMDP involves significant judgment regarding the expected scope and actual implementation terms of the measure as the latter have not been clarified to date by Italian authorities. The Company accounts for the estimated cost of the IMDP as sales and marketing expense and periodically reassesses this liability based upon current facts and circumstances. As a result, the Company recorded expense of $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has accrued $5.4 million related to the IMDP, which it has classified within other long-term liabilities; however, the actual liability could be higher or lower than the amount accrued once the law has been clarified by the Italian authorities.

11. Acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement

Acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement consists of (i) amortization related to intangible assets acquired through business combinations or asset acquisitions, (ii) the remeasurement of any related contingent consideration arrangements, and (iii) recognized costs associated with acquired in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) assets, which are recognized immediately upon acquisition. Components of acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement are as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
(U.S. Dollars, in thousands)	2022			2021
Amortization of acquired intangibles	$	2,001		$	1,969

Time-based restricted stock awards and units		2,170		1,727
Market-based / performance-based restricted stock units		1,444		897
Stock purchase plan		359		436
Total	$	4,332	$	3,721

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company issued 4,885 and 50,510 shares, respectively, of common stock related to stock purchase plan issuances, stock option exercises, and the vesting of restricted stock awards and units.

13. Income taxes

Generally, income tax provisions for interim periods are based on an estimated annual income tax rate, adjusted for discrete tax items, with any changes affecting the estimated annual effective tax rate recorded in the interim period in which the change occurs. Due to the impact of losses not benefitted by the Company’s U.S. and Italian operations, the Company determined the estimated annual effective tax rate method would not provide a reliable estimate of the Company’s overall annual effective tax rate. As such, the Company has calculated the tax provision using the actual effective rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Due to the impact of temporary differences on the U.S. current tax liability without any deferred tax benefit, the actual effective rate may vary in future quarters.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the effective tax rate was (1.6%) and 3.4%, respectively. The primary factors affecting the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2022, were certain losses not benefitted.

14. Earnings per share (“EPS”)

The Company uses the two-class method of computing basic EPS due to the existence of non-vested restricted stock awards with nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (referred to as participating securities). For the three months ended March 31, 2022, no significant adjustments were made to net income for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS.

The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in diluted EPS computations.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Weighted average common shares-basic		19,897,695		19,526,872
Effect of dilutive securities
Unexercised stock options and stock purchase plan		—		—
Unvested restricted stock awards and units		—		—
Weighted average common shares-diluted		19,897,695		19,526,872

There were 2,461,446 and 2,037,663 weighted average outstanding (i) stock options and (ii) restricted stock awards and units, respectively, not included in the diluted EPS computation for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, because inclusion of these awards was anti-dilutive or, for performance-based and market-based restricted stock units, all necessary conditions had not been satisfied by the end of the respective period.

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities decreased $10.2 million

•

Increase in net income of $1.4 million

•

Net decrease of $4.1 million for non-cash gains and losses, largely related to changes in fair value of contingent consideration, share-based compensation expense, deferred income taxes, and our provision for expected credit losses

•

Net decrease of $7.4 million relating to changes in working capital accounts, primarily attributable to changes in inventories

Two of our primary working capital accounts are accounts receivable and inventory. Days sales in receivables were 61 days at March 31, 2022, compared to 59 days at March 31, 2021. Inventory turns remained consistent at 1.3 times as of March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021.

Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2022, we had no borrowings outstanding under our secured revolving credit facility. In addition, we had no borrowings outstanding under on our €5.5 million ($6.1 million) available lines of credit in Italy. We were in compliance with all required financial covenants as of March 31, 2022.

Other

For information regarding contingencies, see Note 7 to the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”)

In April 2020, we received $13.9 million in funds from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service Accelerated and Advance Payment Program under the CARES Act. Starting in April 2021, Medicare began to recoup 25% of Medicare payments otherwise owed to the provider or supplier for submitted claims. Beginning in March 2022, recoupment increased to 50%, which will remain in effect for another six months. Thus, during this period, rather than receiving the full amount of payment for newly submitted claims, the Company’s outstanding accelerated / advance payment balance is reduced by the recoupment amount until the full balance has been repaid. As of March 31, 2022, the contract liability balance associated with the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program of the CARES Act totaled $1.4 million. The Company has classified the entire balance of this contract liability within other current liabilities based upon the Company’s estimates of when such funds will be recouped.

Spinal Kinetics Contingent Consideration

As part of the consideration for the Spinal Kinetics acquisition, we agreed to make contingent milestone payments of up to $60.0 million. One milestone payment, which was for $15.0 million, became due upon FDA approval of Spinal Kinetics’ M6-C artificial cervical disc (the “FDA Milestone”). The FDA Milestone was achieved and paid in 2019. A revenue-based milestone payment, totaling $15.0 million, was achieved and paid in 2021 upon meeting certain net sales targets.

The remaining milestone payment is a revenue-based milestone payment of $30.0 million in connection with future sales of the acquired artificial discs. The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement as of March 31, 2022, was $11.7 million; however, the actual amount ultimately paid could be higher or lower than the fair value of the contingent consideration (ultimate payment will either be $30.0 million or the liability will be reversed if the milestone is not met within the required timeline). As of March 31, 2022, the remaining contingent consideration liability was classified within other current liabilities. For additional discussion of this matter, see Note 6 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Neo Medical Convertible Loan

In October 2020, we entered into a Convertible Loan Agreement (the “Convertible Loan”) with Neo Medical SA, a privately held Swiss-based Medtech company (“Neo Medical”), whereby we loaned CHF 4.6 million ($5.0 million as of the issuance date) to Neo Medical. The loan bears interest at 8.0%, with interest due semi-annually. The Convertible Loan matures in October 2024; however, if a change in control of Neo Medical occurs prior to maturity, the Convertible Loan shall become immediately due upon such event.

Related Party Transaction

In February 2021, we entered into a technology assignment and royalty agreement with a medical device technology company partially owned and controlled by the wife of President and Chief Executive Officer, Jon Serbousek, whereby we acquired the intellectual property rights to certain assets for consideration of up to $10.0 million. Consideration was comprised of $1.0 million due at signing and $9.0 million in contingent consideration, dependent upon multiple milestones, such as receipt of 510(k) clearance or the attainment of certain net sales targets. None of the contingent consideration has been paid as of March 31, 2022.

IGEA S.p.A Exclusive License and Distribution Agreement

In April 2021, we entered into an Exclusive License and Distribution Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with IGEA S.p.A (“IGEA”), an Italian manufacturer and distributor of bone and cartilage stimulation systems. Per the terms of the License Agreement, we have the exclusive right to sell IGEA products in the U.S. and Canada. As consideration for the License Agreement, we agreed to pay up to $4.0 million, of which $0.5 million was paid in the second quarter of 2021, with certain payments contingent upon achieving an FDA milestone. The License Agreement also includes certain minimum purchase requirements.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes in any of our material contractual obligations as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion of operating results is based upon the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The preparation of these statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our critical accounting estimates are detailed in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for detailed information regarding the status of recently issued or adopted accounting pronouncements. As of March 31, 2022, we do not expect any of the issued Accounting Standards Updates to materially affect our condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe that providing non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items provides investors with greater transparency to the information used by senior management in its financial and operational decision-making. We believe it is important to provide investors with the same non-GAAP metrics used to supplement information regarding the performance and underlying trends of our business operations to facilitate comparisons to historical operating results and internally evaluate the effectiveness of our operating strategies. Disclosure of these non-GAAP financial measures also facilitates comparisons of our underlying operating performance with other companies in the industry that also supplement their GAAP results with non-GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP financial measures used in this filing may have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as a replacement for GAAP financial measures. Some of the limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude items that reflect an economic cost that can have a material effect on cash flows.

Constant Currency

Constant currency is calculated by using foreign currency rates from the comparable, prior-year period, to present net sales at comparable rates. Constant currency can be presented for numerous GAAP measures, but is most commonly used by management to analyze net sales without the impact of changes in foreign currency rates.

EBITDA

EBITDA is a non-GAAP metric defined as earnings before interest income (expense), income taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA is the primary metric used by our Chief Operating Decision Maker in managing the business.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from net cash from operating activities. Management uses free cash flow as an important indicator of how much cash is generated or used by our normal business operations, including capital expenditures. Management uses free cash flow as a measure of progress on its capital efficiency and cash flow initiatives.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to our market risks as disclosed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These include controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, known to the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer that occurred for the quarterly period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

For information regarding legal proceedings, see Note 7 to the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein, which is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factors supplement and should be read in conjunction with those contained in the risk factors disclosed in the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, except as follows.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine may continue to cause global economic instability and potentially disrupt supply chains.

In February 2022, Russia unlawfully invaded Ukraine, creating an ongoing humanitarian and global security crisis. In response, the U.S. and many other countries have imposed robust sanctions on Russia and may impose additional sanctions in the future. The ongoing invasion has caused significant damage and disruption to various aspects of the global economy. We have never conducted any meaningful business within Russia, and do not believe that the invasion will have material direct effects on our business or operations. However, we cannot predict the broader and longer-term consequences of this conflict or the sanctions imposed in response, and such consequences could include, among other things, general disruptions to global finance markets, exchange rates, and worldwide supply chains. Geopolitical instability and uncertainty resulting from the invasion could potentially have a negative impact on our ability to sell to, ship products to, collect payments from, and support customers in certain regions based on trade restrictions, embargoes and export control law restrictions, and logistics restrictions. These considerations could adversely affect our costs, risks, and efficiencies related to our supply chain and logistics. The potential effects of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine also could affect many of the other risk factors described in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
