Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Business, basis of presentation, COVID-19 update, and CARES Act

Description of the Business

Orthofix Medical Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a global medical device and biologics 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, the Company has 2 reporting segments: Global Spine and Global Orthopedics (formerly referred to as Global Extremities). The Company’s spine and orthopedic products are distributed in over 70 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, 2020. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2021.

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; allowance 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.

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

The global Coronavirus Disease 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic has significantly affected the Company’s patients, communities, employees, and business operations. The pandemic has led to the cancellation or deferral of elective surgeries and procedures within certain hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and other medical facilities; restrictions on travel; the implementation of physical distancing measures; and the temporary or permanent closure of certain businesses.

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act entered into federal law, which was aimed at providing emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide general support to the U.S. economy. The CARES Act, among other things, included provisions relating to the deferment of employer side social security payments and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act had no impact to the Company’s income tax benefit reported within the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company recorded a benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 that was reversed in the period ending June 30, 2020. The CARES Act provided financial relief to the Company through other various programs, which are each described in further detail below.

In April 2020, the Company received $13.9 million in funds from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) Accelerated and Advance Payment Program. For discussion of the Company’s accounting for these funds, see Note 10.

In addition, as part of the CARES Act, the Company was permitted to defer all employer social security payroll tax payments through December 31, 2020, such that 50% of the taxes would be deferred until December 31, 2021, with the remaining 50% deferred until December 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had deferred $0.6 million in social security payroll tax payments under this program. All of these deferred tax payments were then repaid in January 2021. Therefore, as of March 31, 2021, the Company has 0 deferred balance associated with this program.

Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (the “Consolidated Appropriations Act”)

On December 27, 2020, the Consolidated Appropriations Act entered into federal law. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, among other things, included provisions related to the deductibility of business meals in 2021 and 2022.  The impact of this act was not material to the Company’s income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

8

American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (the “American Rescue Plan”)

On March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan entered into federal law. The American Rescue Plan, among other things, included provisions related to the deduction of executive compensation beginning in 2027. The American Rescue Plan had no impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

2. Recently adopted accounting standards and recently issued accounting pronouncements

 Adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Simplifying the accounting for income taxes

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, which reduces the complexity of accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, Income Taxes. Additionally, the ASU simplifies U.S. GAAP by amending the requirements related to the accounting for "hybrid" tax regimes and also adding the requirement to evaluate when a step up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination and when it should be considered a separate transaction. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2021, with certain provisions applied retrospectively and other provisions applied prospectively. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations, or cash flows.

3. Acquisitions

On February 2, 2021, the Company 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 the Company 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 and the attainment of certain net sales targets. The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition. As the transaction is classified as an asset acquisition, the value of the consideration associated with the contingent milestones will be recognized at the time that applicable contingencies are resolved and consideration is paid or becomes payable. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

In addition, the Company is obligated to pay a royalty of 2% to 4% on net sales, commencing upon commercialization of the acquired assets.

The transaction was approved by the Company’s Audit and Finance Committee, with the Audit and Finance Committee directly supervising and directing the negotiations of the transaction by Company employees who reported directly to the Audit and Finance Committee in connection with such negotiations. Mr. Serbousek was excluded from such discussions and did not participate in the negotiation or evaluation of the transaction. Mr. Serbousek is also being excluded from the administration and implementation of the agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, all discussions or disputes with the counterparty in connection with the agreement, or the administration or implementation thereof, oversight of the Company’s development and commercialization activities in relation to the acquired technology, and all other matters relating to the relationship between the Company and the counterparty.

6. Long-term debt

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the secured revolving credit facility and was in compliance with all required financial covenants.

In addition, the Company had 0 borrowings on its €5.5 million ($6.5 million) available lines of credit in Italy as of March 31, 2021.

10

7. Fair value measurements and investments

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis were as follows:

Neo Medical Equity Investment and Convertible Loan Agreement

On October 1, 2020, the Company purchased preferred shares of Neo Medical SA, a privately held Swiss-based Medtech company (“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 (the “Convertible Loan”).

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. As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of this investment remained at $5.0 million.

The loan bears interest at 8.0%, with interest due semi-annually. At each interest payment date, the borrower may elect to capitalize any interest due to the then outstanding principal balance of the loan. The Convertible Loan matures on October 1, 2024, provided that if a change in control of Neo Medical occurs prior to the maturity date, the Convertible Loan shall become immediately due upon such event. The Convertible Loan is recorded in other long-term assets as an available for sale debt security at fair value, with applicable interest recorded in interest income. The fair value of the Convertible Loan, including accrued interest, is based upon significant unobservable inputs, including the use of Monte Carlo simulations, option-pricing models, and a probability-weighted discounted cash flows model, requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions. Therefore, the Company has categorized this asset as a Level 3 financial asset.

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 credit losses. Impairment resulting from credit losses is recognized within the statement of income, while impairment resulting from other factors is recognized within other comprehensive income. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has 0t recognized any credit losses related to the Convertible Loan.

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

11

The following table provides quantitative information related to certain key assumptions utilized within the valuation as of March 31, 2021:

Contingent Consideration

The Company recognized a contingent consideration obligation in connection with the acquisition of Spinal Kinetics in 2018. The Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration consisted 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. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company achieved trailing-twelve month artificial disc sales of over $30.0 million, triggering the obligation of a $15.0 million milestone payment. The Company expects to make this payment in the second quarter of 2021.

The estimated fair value of the remaining Spinal Kinetics contingent consideration, inclusive of the $15.0 million milestone payment discussed above, was $36.9 million as of March 31, 2021. The estimated fair value reflects assumptions made by management as of March 31, 2021, 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. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has classified $15.0 million of the liability within other current liabilities, and $21.9 million within other long-term liabilities. 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):

The Company estimated the fair value of the remaining potential future revenue-based milestone payments 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 Spinal Kinetics products, 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, 2021.

Other contingent consideration is attributable to an agreement closed in the third quarter of 2020 to acquire certain assets of a medical device distributor as a portion of the consideration was based upon meeting certain revenue-based targets. This contingent liability is measured using a probability-weighted cash flow analysis.

8. 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.

12

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. This healthcare law is expected to impact the business and financial reporting of companies operating in the medical technology sector that sell medical devices in Italy. 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 recorded expense of $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has accrued $7.1 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.

Brazil

In 2019, in relation to an ongoing legal dispute with a former Brazilian distributor, approximately $0.5 million (based upon foreign exchange rates as of March 31, 2021) of the Company’s cash in Brazil was frozen upon request to satisfy a judgment. Although the Company is appealing the judgment, this cash has been reclassified to restricted cash. As of March 31, 2021, the Company has an accrual of $1.5 million related to this matter.

9. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)

The components of and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were as follows:

10. Revenue recognition and accounts receivable

Revenue Recognition

The Company has two reporting segments, which consist of Global Spine and Global Orthopedics. Within the Global Spine reporting segment there are three product categories: Bone Growth Therapies, Spinal Implants, and Biologics.

The table below presents net sales by major product category by reporting segment:

Product Sales and Marketing Service Fees

The table below presents product sales and marketing service fees, which are both components of net sales:

13

Product sales primarily consist of the sale of bone growth therapies devices, motion preservation products, spine fixation products, and orthopedics products. Marketing service fees are received from MTF Biologics based on total sales of biologics tissues and relate solely to the Global Spine reporting segment. Revenues exclude any value added or other local taxes, intercompany sales and trade discounts. Shipping and handling costs for products shipped to customers are included in cost of sales.

Accounts receivable and related allowances

The Company’s allowance for expected credit losses represents the portion of the receivable’s amortized cost basis that an entity does not expect to collect over the receivable’s contractual life, considering past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions.

The following table provides a detail of changes in the Company’s allowance for expected credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

Contract Liabilities

The Company’s contract liabilities largely relate to a prepayment of $13.9 million received in April 2020 from the CMS as part of the Accelerated and Advance Payment Program of the CARES Act intended to increase cash flow to providers of services and suppliers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

On October 1, 2020, the President of the United States signed the “Continuing Appropriations Act, 2021 and Other Extensions Act,” which relaxed a number of the Medicare Accelerated and Advance Payment Programs recoupment terms for providers and suppliers that received funds from the program. Under these new terms, recoupment will be delayed until one year after payment was issued. After that first year, Medicare will automatically recoup 25% of Medicare payments otherwise owed to the provider or supplier for 11 months. At the end of the 11-month period, recoupment will increase to 50% for another 6 months. Thus, during these time periods, rather than receiving the full amount of payment for newly submitted claims, the Company’s outstanding accelerated / advance payment balance will be reduced by the recoupment amount until the full balance has been repaid. Medicare began to recoup these funds beginning in April 2021.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company has classified $13.7 million of this contract liability within other current liabilities and $0.2 million within other long-term liabilities based upon the Company’s estimates of when such funds will be recouped. The Company did not recognize any net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2021, respectively, attributable to the satisfaction of performance obligations related to the CMS prepayment.

Other Contract Assets

The Company’s contract assets, excluding trade accounts receivable (“Other Contract Assets”), largely consist of payments made to certain distributors to obtain contracts, gain access to customers in certain territories, and to provide the benefit of the exclusive distribution of Orthofix products. Other Contract Assets are included in other long-term assets or other current assets, dependent upon the original term of the related agreement, and totaled $1.8 million and $2.0 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

11. Business segment information

The Company has 2 reporting segments: Global Spine and Global Orthopedics. The primary metric used in managing the Company is earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). Corporate activities are comprised of the operating expenses and activities of the Company not necessarily identifiable within the two reporting segments, such as human resources, finance, legal, and information technology functions. The table below presents EBITDA by reporting segment: 

14

Geographical information

The table below presents net sales by geographic destination for each reporting segment and for the consolidated Company:

12. 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 arrangement, and (iii) recognized costs associated with acquired in-process research and development assets, which are recognized immediately upon acquisition. Components of acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement are as follows:

15

13. Share-based compensation

Components of share-based compensation expense are as follows:

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company issued 50,510 and 33,559 shares, respectively, of common stock related to stock purchase plan issuances, stock option exercises, and the vesting of restricted stock awards and units.

14. 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, including discrete items. Due to the impact of losses not benefited by the Company’s European manufacturing subsidiary and certain non-deductible financial statement expenses, 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, 2021.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the effective tax rate was 3.4% and (355.6%), respectively. The primary factors affecting the Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021, were certain losses not benefited,   remeasurement of contingent consideration predominantly not recognized for tax purposes, a favorable tax ruling related to certain previously unrecognized tax benefits, and limits on the deductibility of executive compensation.

During the first quarter, the Company received a favorable ruling related to certain previously unrecognized tax benefits, which resulted in the recognition of a net benefit of $0.3 million. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that, in the next 12 months, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to the resolution of federal, state, and foreign matters could be reduced by $1.0 million to $1.5 million as audits close and statutes expire.

15. 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, 2021, no significant adjustments were made to net income for purposes of calculating basic and diluted EPS.

16

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

There were 2,037,663 and 1,168,410 weighted average outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards and units not included in the diluted EPS computation for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because inclusion of these awards was anti-dilutive or, for performance-based and market-based restricted stock awards and units, all necessary conditions had not been satisfied by the end of the respective period.

16. Subsequent Events

On April 7, 2021, the Company 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, the Company will have the exclusive right to sell IGEA products in the U.S. and Canada. As consideration for the License Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay up to $4.0 million, with certain payments contingent upon reaching an FDA milestone. The License Agreement also includes certain minimum purchase requirements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of Orthofix Medical Inc.’s (sometimes referred to as “we,” “us” or “our”) financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with the “Forward-Looking Statements” and our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Executive Summary

We are a global medical device and biologics company with a spine and orthopedics focus. Our mission is to deliver innovative, quality-driven solutions as we partner with health care professionals to improve patient mobility. Headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, our spine and orthopedic products are distributed in more than 70 countries via our sales representatives and distributors.

Notable financial metrics and achievements in the first quarter of 2021 include the following:

COVID-19 Update and Outlook

The global COVID-19 pandemic has significantly affected our patients, communities, employees, and business operations. The pandemic has led to the cancellation or deferral of elective surgeries and procedures with certain hospitals, ambulatory surgery centers, and other medical facilities; restrictions on travel; the implementation of physical distancing measures; and the temporary or permanent closure of businesses. At this time, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain, both in the U.S. and in other markets. Progress has been made on therapeutic treatments and the development and distribution of vaccines, though the efficacy, timing, and adoption of various treatments and vaccines is uncertain.

Given these various uncertainties, it is unclear the extent to which lingering slowdowns in elective procedures will affect our business during 2021 and beyond. We expect that the effects of COVID-19 on our business will depend on various factors including (i) the magnitude and length of increased case waves in certain geographies, (ii) the comfort level of patients in returning to clinics and hospitals, (iii) the extent to which localized elective surgery shutdowns occur, (iv) the unemployment rate’s effect on potential patients lacking medical insurance coverage, and (v) general hospital capacity constraints occurring because of the need to treat COVID-19 patients.
