Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
The Company
Alphatec Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Alphatec Spine, Inc. (“Alphatec Spine”), SafeOp Surgical, Inc. (“SafeOp”), and EOS imaging S.A.S. (“EOS”), is a medical technology company focused on the design, development, and advancement of technology for the better surgical treatment of spinal disorders. The Company, headquartered in Carlsbad, California, markets its products in the United States ("U.S.") and internationally via a network of independent sales agents and direct sales representatives.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiaries using end-of-period exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates during each reporting period for results of operations. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company operates inone reportable business segment.
Use of Estimates
The carrying amount of financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable estimates of fair value due to their short maturities.
Concentrations of Credit Risk and Significant Customers
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by depositing its cash and investments with established financial institutions. Although the Company deposits its cash with multiple financial institutions, its deposits, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
The Company’s customers are primarily hospitals and surgical centers. No one single customer represented greater than 10 percent of consolidated revenues and accounts receivable for the years presented. Credit to customers is granted based on an analysis of the customers’ credit worthiness. Credit losses have not been significant.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The company considers all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and have an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable are presented net of allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company makes judgments as to its ability to collect outstanding receivables and provides allowances for a portion of receivables when collection becomes doubtful. Provisions are made based upon a specific review of all significant outstanding invoices. In determining the provision for invoices not specifically reviewed, the Company analyzes historical collection experience. If the historical data used to calculate the allowance provided for doubtful accounts does not reflect the Company’s future ability to collect outstanding receivables or if the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in impairment of their ability to make payments, an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts may be required.
The Company’s accounts receivable have payment terms commensurate with the local business practice depending on the country of sale. The Company generally does not allow returns of products that have been delivered. The Company offers standard quality assurance warranty on its products. The Company had no material bad debt expense during the years presented.
Excess and Obsolete Inventory
Most of the Company’s inventory is comprised of finished goods, which is primarily produced by third-party suppliers. Specialized implants, fixation products, biologics, and imaging equipment are determined by utilizing a standard cost method that includes capitalized variances which approximates the weighted average cost. Component parts related to the imaging equipment are valued at weighted average cost. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company reviews the components of its inventory on a periodic basis for excess and obsolescence and adjusts inventory to its net realizable value as necessary.
The Company records a lower of cost or net realizable value (“LCNRV”) inventory reserve for estimated excess and obsolete inventory based upon its expected use of inventory on hand. The Company’s inventory, which consists primarily of specialized implants, fixation products, and biologics is at risk of obsolescence due to the need to maintain substantial levels of inventory. In order to market its products effectively and meet the demands of interoperative product placement, the Company maintains and provides surgeons and hospitals with a variety of inventory products and sizes. For each surgery, fewer than all components will be consumed. The need to maintain and provide a wide variety of inventory causes inventory to be held that is not likely to be used.
The Company’s estimates and assumptions for excess and obsolete inventory are reviewed and updated on a quarterly basis. The estimates and assumptions are determined primarily based on current usage of inventory and the age of inventory quantities on hand. Additionally, the Company considers recent sales experience to develop assumptions about future demand for its products, while considering product life cycles and new product launches. Increases in the LCNRV reserve for excess and obsolete inventory result in a corresponding charge to cost of sales. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded LCNRV charges for excess and obsolete inventory of$13.5 million, $15.4 million and $13.6 million, respectively, net of inventory sold of $3.9 million, $3.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded a reduction of reserve for inventory that was disposed of $3.6 million, $3.5 million and $12.9 million, respectively.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally ranging from three toseven years. Leasehold improvements and assets acquired under financing leases are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the remaining terms of the related leases.
Operating Lease
The Company determines whether a contract is a lease or contains a lease at inception by assessing whether there is an identified asset and whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset in exchange for consideration over a period of time. If both criteria are met, the Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability at the lease commencement date and thereafter, if modified. The Company recognizes a ROU asset and lease liability for its operating leases with lease terms greater than 12 months. The lease term includes any renewal options and termination options that the Company is reasonably assured to exercise. ROU assets and lease liabilities are based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The present value of operating lease payments is determined by using the incremental borrowing rate of interest that the Company would borrow on a collateralized basis for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term based on the total lease payments and is included in cost of sales, research and development, and sales, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company aggregates all lease and non-lease components for each class of underlying assets into a single lease component and variable charges for common area maintenance and other variable costs are recognized as expense as incurred. Total variable costs associated with leases were immaterial for all years presented. The Company had an immaterial amount of financing leases as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, which is included in property and equipment, net, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Valuation of Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired from the Company’s business combinations. The determination of the value of goodwill and intangible assets arising from business combinations and asset acquisitions requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments to allocate the purchase price to the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is assessed for impairment using fair value measurement techniques on an annual basis or more frequently if facts and circumstance warrant such a review. Goodwill is considered to be impaired if the Company determines that the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its respective fair value.
The Company’s annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill consists of one reporting unit. The Company completed its most recent annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill as of October 1, 2025 and determined that no impairment existed. In addition, no indicators of impairment were noted through December 31, 2025, and consequentlyno impairment charge was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Valuation of Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are comprised primarily of purchased technology, internally developed software, customer relationships, trade name, trademarks, and in-process research and development. The Company makes significant judgments in relation to the valuation of intangible assets resulting from business combinations and asset acquisitions. Intangible assets are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 2 to 12 years. The Company bases the useful lives and related amortization expense on the period of time it estimates the assets will generate net sales or otherwise be used. The Company also periodically reviews the lives assigned to its intangible assets to ensure that its initial estimates do not exceed any revised estimated periods from which the Company expects to realize cash flows. If a change were to occur in any of the above-mentioned factors or estimates, the likelihood of a material change in the Company’s reported results would increase.
The Company evaluates its intangible assets with finite lives for indications of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include significant under-performance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of the Company’s use of the acquired assets or the strategy for its overall business or significant negative industry or economic trends. If this evaluation indicates that the value of the intangible asset may be impaired, the Company makes an assessment of the recoverability of the net carrying value of the asset group in which the intangible asset resides over its remaining useful life of the primary asset in the asset group. The asset group is determined based on the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows can be identified. If this assessment indicates that the asset group is not recoverable, based on the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset group, the Company reduces the net carrying value of the related intangible assets in the asset group to fair value and may adjust the remaining amortization period. Significant judgment is required in the forecasts of future operating results that are used in the discounted cash flow valuation models. It is possible that plans may change and estimates used may prove to be inaccurate. If actual results, or the plans and estimates used in future impairment analyses, are lower than the original estimates used to assess the recoverability of these assets, the Company could incur additional impairment charges. There wereno impairment charges during the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 or 2023.
In-process research and development ("IPR&D") and software in development have indefinite lives and are not amortized until the related products reach full commercial launch or when the projects are complete and their assets are ready for their intended use. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are considered to be impaired if the products do not reach commercial launch, if the project is not completed or not completed in a timely manner, or if the related products or projects are no longer technologically feasible. Impairment related to IPR&D and software in development is calculated as the excess of the asset's carrying value over its fair value. There wereno impairment charges during the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 or 2023.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company assesses potential impairment to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows related to the asset group in which the long-lived asset resides are less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value and is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operating results. There wereno material impairment charges during the years ended December 31,2025, 2024 or 2023.
Warrants to Purchase Common Stock
Warrants are accounted for in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance as either derivative liabilities or as equity instruments depending on the specific terms of the agreements. All warrants qualify for classification within stockholders' (deficit) equity.
Fair Value Measurements
The carrying amount of financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term debt included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable estimates of fair value due to their short maturities.
Authoritative guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). This standard applies to all contracts with customers, except for contracts that are within the scope of other standards, such as leases. Under Topic 606, an entity recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the entity performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer.
Sales are derived primarily from the sale of spinal implant products, imaging equipment, and related services to hospitals and medical centers. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied, which occurs with the transfer of control of products to customers, either upon shipment of the product or delivery of the product to the customer depending on the shipping terms, or when the products are used in a surgical procedure (implanted in a patient). Revenue from the sale of imaging equipment is recognized as each distinct performance obligation is fulfilled and control transfers to the customer, beginning with shipment or delivery, depending on the contract terms. Revenue from other distinct performance obligations, such as maintenance on imaging equipment and other imaging related services, is recognized in the period the service is performed, and makes up less than 10% of the Company’s total revenue. In certain cases, the Company does offer the ability for customers to lease its imaging equipment, but such arrangements are immaterial to total revenue in the years presented. The Company generally does not allow returns of products that have been delivered. Costs incurred by the Company associated directly with sales contracts with customers are deferred over the performance obligation period and recognized in the same period as the related revenue, except for contracts that complete within one year or less, in which case the associated costs are expensed as incurred. Payment terms for sales to customers may vary but are commensurate with the general business practices in the country of sale.
To the extent that the transaction price includes variable consideration, such as discounts, rebates, and customer payment penalties, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the Company’s anticipated performance and all information that is reasonably available, including historical, current, and forecasted information.
The Company records a contract asset when one or more performance obligations have been completed and revenue has been recognized, but the customer's payment is contingent on the satisfaction of additional performance obligations. The Company records a contract liability, or deferred revenue, when it has an obligation to provide a product or service to the customer and payment is received in advance of its performance. When the Company sells a product or service with a future performance obligation, revenue is deferred on the unfulfilled performance obligation and recognized over the related performance period. Generally, the Company estimates the selling price of promised services included in the equipment sales price using an expected cost plus a margin approach and/or the separately observable price of such service, if available. The transaction price for a contract’s various performance obligations is allocated using the relative standalone selling price method. The use of alternative estimates could result in a different amount of revenue deferral.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses consist of costs associated with the design, development, testing, and enhancement of the Company's products. Research and development expenses also include salaries and related employee benefits, research-related overhead expenses, fees paid to external service providers and development consultants in the form of both cash and equity.
Transaction-related Expenses
Transaction-related costs are expensed as incurred. Transaction-related expenses consist of certain costs incurred related primarily to the amendment of the Company's Braidwell term loan, as defined below.
Product Shipment Cost
Product shipment costs for surgical sets are included in sales, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Product shipment costs totaled $24.9 million, $21.8 million and $17.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for equity-classified awards, principally related to restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance restricted stock units ("PRSUs") is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award. The fair value of equity instruments that are expected to vest is recognized and amortized over the requisite service period. The Company has granted awards with up tofour year graded or cliff vesting terms. No exercise price or other monetary payment is required for receipt of the shares issued in settlement of the respective award; instead, consideration is furnished in the form of the participant’s service.
The fair value of RSUs including PRSUs with pre-defined performance criteria is based on the stock price on the date of grant.
Stock-based compensation recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations is based on awards expected to ultimately vest and has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. The Company’s estimated forfeiture rates may differ from its actual forfeitures. The Company considers its historical experience of pre-vesting forfeitures on awards by each homogenous group of employees as the basis to arrive at its estimated annual pre-vesting forfeiture rates.
The Company estimates the fair value of stock options issued under the Company’s equity incentive plans and shares issued to employees under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected term of the Company’s stock options and ESPP offering period which is derived from historical experience. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant. The Company has never declared or paid dividends and has no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
Awards to non-employees are accounted for under the same stock-based compensation provisions as employees, which require that the fair value of these instruments be recognized as an expense when earned. For Development Service Agreements, where the future payments for product and/or intellectual property rights may be paid in either cash or restricted shares of our common stock at the election of the developer, we estimate the fair value of those awards similar to a stock option, using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model on the date of grant. For Development Service Agreements where the future payments for product and/or intellectual property rights will be paid in restricted shares of our common stock, the fair value is based on the stock price on the date of grant. The stock-based compensation expense is recognized as earned once the award is deemed probable of achieving the pre-defined performance criteria. The stock-based compensation expense is included in cost of sales or research and development expense on the consolidated statements of operations commensurate with the nature of the services performed.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with provisions which set forth an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. In making such determination, a review of all available positive and negative evidence must be considered, including scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of the income tax provision.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year. If applicable, diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the diluted weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the year determined using the treasury-stock method and the if-converted method for convertible debt. For purposes of this calculation, common stock subject to repurchase by the Company, common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of convertible notes, preferred shares, options, and warrants are considered to be common stock equivalents and are only included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is dilutive. Due to the Company’s net loss position, the effect of including common stock equivalents in the earnings per share calculation is anti-dilutive, and therefore not included.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):
| Year Ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | |

- Business Combination
The Company recognizes assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest at fair value at the date of acquisition.
On April 19, 2023, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Integrity Implants Inc. and Fusion Robotics, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”), whereby the Company acquired certain assets, liabilities, employees, and contracts in connection with the Sellers’ navigation-enabled robotics platform (“Valence”). The Company paid the Sellers cash consideration of $55.0 million at closing, which represented the total purchase consideration. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination and the Company did not acquire any material assets or assume any material liabilities in connection with the acquisition, excluding intangible assets and goodwill. The acquisition is treated as an asset purchase for income tax purposes; therefore, the goodwill recorded is considered deductible for income tax purposes.
- Fair Value Measurements

- Debt
0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030
In March 2025, the Company issued $405.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured 2030 Notes with a stated interest rate of 0.75% and a maturity date of March 15, 2030. The 2030 Notes began accruing interest immediately and are payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2025. The net proceeds from the sale of the 2030 Notes were approximately $392.9 million after deducting offering expenses and before cash used for the 2030 Capped Call Transactions, as described below, and the repayment of 80% of the 2026 Notes, as described below. The 2030 Notes do not contain any financial covenants.
The 2030 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock based upon an initial conversion rate of 64.3407 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $15.54 per share). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including certain distributions and dividends to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s common stock. Based on the terms of the 2030 Notes, when a conversion notice is received, the Company has the option to pay or deliver cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof.
Holders of the 2030 Notes have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Prior to the close of business of the business day immediately preceding September 17, 2029, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2030 Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2) during the 5 consecutive business days immediately after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2030 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. From and after September 17, 2029, holders of the 2030 Notes may convert their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. As of December 31, 2025, none of the conditions permitting the holders of the 2030 Notes to convert have been met. The 2030 Notes are classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025.
The 2030 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after March 20, 2028 and on or before the 60th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. In addition, calling any of the 2030 Notes for redemption will constitute a “make-whole fundamental change” with respect to the redeemable note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of the redeemed note will be increased in certain circumstances if such note is converted after it is called for redemption.
If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2030 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. No principal payments are otherwise due on the 2030 Notes prior to maturity.
At the time of issuance, the Company determined that the 2030 Notes had an embedded conversion option that met the criteria to be bifurcated and accounted for separately from the 2030 Notes. The Company initially recorded the fair value of the embedded conversion option as a derivative liability and the principal amount of the 2030 Notes as a long-term liability, net of debt discount and deferred issuance costs. In June 2025, conditions necessary for separate accounting of the conversion option as a derivative liability were no longer met. Accordingly, the conversion option derivative liability was remeasured as of the date of the change and subsequently reclassified to additional paid-in capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity (deficit). The annual effective interest rate for the 2030 Notes is 9.1%. The Company recognized interest expense on the 2030 Notes of $21.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, which includes $18.5 millionfor the amortization of debt discount costs. The Company uses the if-converted method for assumed conversion of the 2030 Notes to compute the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for diluted earnings per share, if applicable.
The outstanding principal amount and carrying value of the 2030 Notes consists of the following (in thousands):
| Principal | $405,000 |
|---|---|
| Unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs | (118,438) |
| Net carrying value | $286,562 |
2030 Capped Call Transactions
In connection with the offering of the 2030 Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions (the “2030 Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions. The 2030 Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution and/or offset the cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes upon conversion of the 2030 Notes in the event that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock is greater than the strike price of the 2030 Capped Call Transactions with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The 2030 Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $23.46 per share of the Company’s common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on March 4, 2025, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the 2030 Capped Call Transactions. Collectively, the 2030 Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the 2030 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2030 Notes. The cost of the 2030 Capped Call Transactions was approximately $42.5 million.
The 2030 Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions and are not part of the terms of the 2030 Notes and will not affect any holder’s rights under the 2030 Notes. Holders of the 2030 Notes will not have any rights with respect to the 2030 Capped Call Transactions.
The 2030 Capped Call Transactions meet all of the applicable criteria for equity classification, and as a result, the related $42.5 million cost was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity (deficit).
Term Loan
On January 6, 2023, the Company entered into a $150.0 million term loan credit facility with Braidwell Transaction Holdings, LLC (the “Braidwell Term Loan”). The Braidwell Term Loan provided for an initial term loan of $100.0 million which was funded on the closing date. On September 28, 2023, the Company drew an additional $50.0 million (the “delayed draw term loan(s)” or the “DDTL”). On October 29, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment of the Braidwell Term Loan, which provided for an additional term loan of $50.0 million, subject to the terms of the original term loan credit facility. The Braidwell Term Loan matures on January 6, 2028. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance under the Braidwell Term Loanwas $200.0 million.
In conjunction with the issuance of the Braidwell Term Loan, the Company incurred $3.6 million in debt issuance costs and $3.5 million in commitment fees. Commitment fees paid to the lender were accounted for as a debt discount. The debt issuance costs and debt discount were recorded as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the loan on the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the life of the loan. As of December 31, 2025, debt issuance costs and debt discount, net of accumulated amortization, associated with the Braidwell Term Loan were $1.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively.
Borrowings under the Braidwell Term Loan bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate for such SOFR business day ("SOFR") subject to a 3% floor, plus 5.75%. The applicable interest rate as of December 31, 2025 was 9.7%. The loan agreement includes an undrawn commitment fee, which is calculated as 1% per annum of the average daily undrawn portion of the DDTL. Interest and undrawn commitment fees incurred are due quarterly. The Company is also required to pay fees on any prepayment of the Braidwell Term Loan, ranging from 1.0% to 3.0% depending on the date of prepayment, and a final payment fee equal to 3.25% of the principal amount of the loans drawn. The effective interest rate as of December 31, 2025 was 10.5%. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized interest expense on the Braidwell Term Loanof $22.0 million, which includes $0.5 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs and $0.9 million forthe debt discount. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized interest expense on the Braidwell Term Loan of $18.9 million, which includes $0.7 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs and $0.3 million for the debt discount. During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recognized interest expense on the Braidwell Term Loan of $13.2 million, which includes $0.4 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs and $0.2 million for the debt discount. Upon the Braidwell Term Loan’s maturity, any outstanding principal balance, unpaid accrued interest, and all other obligations under the Braidwell Term Loan will be due and payable.
The Braidwell Term Loan is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets with the priority interest of the lenders in the Braidwell Term Loan and the Revolving Credit Facility, as defined below, subject to terms of a customary intercreditor agreement, which provides that the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility have a priority with respect to the Company's accounts receivable, inventory, medical instruments, and items related to the foregoing, and the lenders under the Braidwell Term Loan have priority with respect to the remainder of the Company's assets. The loan agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. Under the loan agreement, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of liquidity. The loan agreement also includes certain events of default, and upon the occurrence of such events of default, all outstanding loans under the Braidwell Term Loan may be accelerated and/or the lenders’ commitments terminated. The Company is in compliance with all required financial covenants as of December 31, 2025.
Revolving Credit Facility
In September 2022, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with entities affiliated with MidCap Financial Trust (“MidCap”). The Revolving Credit Facility originally provided up to $50.0 million in borrowing capacity to the Company with an accordion feature up to $75.0 million in borrowing capacity, based on a defined borrowing base. The borrowing base is calculated based on certain accounts receivable and inventory assets. The Company subsequently exercised the accordion feature and increased the borrowing capacity by $25.0 million up to the full $75.0 million borrowing capacity. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on September 29, 2027. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance under the Revolving Credit Facility was $15.0 million.
In conjunction with obtaining the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company incurred $1.4 million in debt issuance costs. These costs were capitalized to other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and are being amortized over the life of the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2025, and 2024, debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization, associated with the Revolving Credit Facility were $0.5 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
The outstanding loans bear interest at the sum of SOFR plus 3.5% per annum. The interest rate as of December 31, 2025 was 7.5%. The loan agreements include an unused line fee, which is calculated as 0.5% per annum of either the unused Revolving Credit Facility or a minimum balance. Interest and unused line fees incurred are due and capitalized to the outstanding principal balance monthly. The Company recognized interest expense on the Revolving Credit Facility of $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, which includes $0.3 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs. The Company recognized interest expense on the Revolving Credit Facility of $3.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2024, which includes $0.2 millionfor the amortization of debt issuance costs. The Company recognized interest expense on the Revolving Credit Facility of $2.0 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, which includes $0.3 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs. Upon the Revolving Credit Facility’s maturity, any outstanding principal balance, unpaid accrued interest, and all other obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility will be due and payable.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains a lockbox arrangement clause requiring the Company to maintain a lockbox bank account. If the revolving loan availability is less than 30% of the revolving loan limit forfive consecutive business days, or the Company is in default, MidCap will apply funds collected from the Company's lockbox account to reduce the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2025, the Company's loan availability level has not activated lockbox deductions, nor is it expected to for the next 12 months; therefore, the Company has determined that the outstanding balance under the Revolving Credit Facility is long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets.
The outstanding loans are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets with the priority interest of the lenders subject to terms of a customary intercreditor agreement in connection with the Braidwell Term Loan. The loan agreements and other ancillary documents contain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. Under the loan agreements, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of liquidity. The loan agreements also include certain events of default, and upon the occurrence of such events of default, all outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility may be accelerated and/or the lenders’ commitments terminated. The Company is in compliance with all required financial covenants as of December 31, 2025.
0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026
In August 2021, the Company issued $316.3 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured 2026 Notes with a stated interest rate of 0.75% and a maturity date of August 1, 2026. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, beginning on February 1, 2022. The net proceeds from the sale of the 2026 Notes were approximately $306.2 million after deducting the initial purchasers’ offering expenses. The 2026 Notes do not contain any financial covenants.
The 2026 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock based upon an initial conversion rate of 54.5316 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2026 Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $18.34 per share). The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, including certain distributions and dividends to all or substantially all of the holders of the Company’s common stock. Based on the terms of the 2026 Notes, when a conversion notice is received, the Company has the option to pay or deliver cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof.
Holders of the 2026 Notes have the right to convert their notes in certain circumstances and during specified periods. Prior to the close of business of the business day immediately preceding February 2, 2026, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2026 Notes only under the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2021, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130%of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (2)
duringthe 5 consecutive business days immediately after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 2026 Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events. From and after February 2, 2026, holders of the 2026 Notes may convert their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. As of December 31, 2025, none of the conditions permitting the holders of the 2026 Notes to convert have been met. The 2026 Notes are classified as current debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025.
The 2026 Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time, and from time to time, on or after August 6, 2024 and on or before the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, at a cash redemption price equal to the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for a specified period of time. In addition, calling any of the notes for redemption will constitute a “make-whole fundamental change” with respect to that note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that note will be increased in certain circumstances if such note is converted after it is called for redemption. In March 2025 the Company repurchased 80% of the 2026 Notes for $268.4 million. The Company determined that the redemption of the 2026 Notes should be accounted for as a partial extinguishment of the 2026 Notes. As a result of the partial extinguishment, the Company wrote off $2.3 million of the unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discount. The Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $17.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2025.
If a fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, holders may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their 2026 Notes for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. No principal payments are otherwise due on the 2026 Notes prior to maturity.
The 2026 Notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, are classified as short-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025. The annual effective interest rate for the 2026 Notes is 1.4%. The Company recognized interest expense on the 2026 Notes of $1.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, which includes $0.8 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs during the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company recognized interest expense on the 2026 Notes of $4.4 million during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, which includes $2.0 million for the amortization of debt issuance costs during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company uses the if-converted method for assumed conversion of the 2026 Notes to compute the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for diluted earnings per share, if applicable.
The outstanding principal amount and carrying value of the 2026 Notes consist of the following (in thousands):
| Principal | $63,250 |
|---|---|
| Unamortized debt issuance costs | (237) |
| Net carrying value | $63,013 |
2026 Capped Call Transactions
In connection with the offering of the 2026 Notes, the Company entered into the Capped Call Transactions with certain financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution and/or offset the cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes upon conversion of the 2026 Notes in the event that the market price per share of the Company’s common stock is greater than the strike price of the Capped Call Transactions with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The Capped Call Transactions have an initial cap price of $27.68 per share of the Company’s common stock, which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on August 5, 2021, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. Collectively, the Capped Call Transactions cover, initially, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the 2026 Notes, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to the 2026 Notes. The cost of the Capped Call Transactions was approximately $39.9 million.
The Capped Call Transactions are separate transactions and are not part of the terms of the 2026 Notes and will not affect any holder’s rights under the notes. Holders of the 2026 Notes will not have any rights with respect to the Capped Call Transactions.
The Capped Call Transactions meet all of the applicable criteria for equity classification and, as a result, the related $39.9 million cost was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital on the Company’s consolidated statements of shareholders’ (deficit) equity for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Other Debt Agreements
The Company hastwo loan agreements under French government sponsored COVID-19 relief initiatives (“PGE” loans) which mature in 2027. Monthly and quarterly installments of principal and interest under each PGE loan agreement is due until the original principal amounts and applicable interest is fully repaid in 2027. The outstanding obligation under each loan as of December 31, 2025 was $1.3 million and $0.6 million at weighted average interest rates of 0.98% and 1.25%, respectively, and weighted average costs of the state guaranty of 0.69% and 1.0%, respectively.

- Commitments and Contingencies
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception by assessing whether there is an identified asset and whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of the identified asset in exchange for consideration over a period of time. If both criteria are met, the Company records the associated lease liability and corresponding ROU asset upon commencement of the lease using a discount rate based on the incremental borrowing rate of interest that the Company would borrow on a collateralized basis for an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Any short-term leases defined as twelve months or less or month-to-month leases are excluded and are expensed each month. Total costs associated with these short-term leases are immaterial to all years presented.
The Company leases office and storage facilities and equipment under various operating and financing lease agreements. The initial terms of these leases range from 1 to 10 years and generally provide for periodic rent increases. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material variable lease payments, residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Litigation
The Company is and may become involved in various legal proceedings arising from its business activities. While management is not aware of any litigation matter that in and of itself would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and depending on the nature and timing of a proceeding, an unfavorable resolution could materially affect the Company’s future consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position in a particular period. The Company assesses contingencies to determine the degree of probability and range of possible loss for potential accrual or disclosure in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. An estimated loss contingency is accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable and unfavorable resolutions could occur, assessing contingencies is highly subjective and requires judgments about future events. When evaluating contingencies, the Company may be unable to provide a meaningful estimate due to a number of factors, including the procedural status of the matter in question, the presence of complex or novel legal theories, and/or the ongoing discovery and development of information important to the matters. In addition, damage amounts claimed in litigation against the Company may be unsupported, exaggerated or unrelated to reasonably possible outcomes, and as such are not meaningful indicators of the Company’s potential liability.
In May 2025, the Company entered into a settlement with a shareholder to resolve a legal dispute. The Company recorded the amount of the settlement, which is included in litigation-related expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Indemnifications
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements under which it occasionally indemnifies third-parties for intellectual property infringement claims or claims arising from breaches of representations or warranties. In addition, from time to time, the Company provides indemnity protection to third-parties for claims relating to past performance arising from undisclosed liabilities, product liabilities, environmental obligations, representations and warranties, and other claims. In these agreements, the scope and amount of remedy, or the period in which claims can be made, may be limited. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of future payments, if any, due under these indemnities due to the conditional nature of the obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each agreement.
In October 2017, NuVasive, Inc. filed a lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court against Mr. Miles, the Company’s Chairman and CEO, who was a former officer and board member of NuVasive. The Company itself was not initially a named defendant in this lawsuit; however, in June 2018, NuVasive amended its complaint to add the Company as a defendant. In October 2018, the Delaware Court ordered that NuVasive advance legal fees for Mr. Miles’ defense in the lawsuit, as well as Mr. Miles’ legal fees incurred in pursuing advancement of his fees, pursuant to an indemnification agreement between NuVasive and Mr. Miles. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has not recorded any liability on the consolidated balance sheets related to this matter.
Royalties
The Company has entered into various intellectual property agreements requiring the payment of royalties based on the sale of products that utilize such intellectual property. These royalties primarily relate to products sold by Alphatec Spine and are based on fixed fees or calculated either as a percentage of net sales or on a per-unit sold basis. Royalties are included on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as a component of cost of sales.

The realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future years in the associated jurisdiction to which the deferred tax assets relate. As of December 31, 2025, a valuation allowance of$246.4 million has been established against the deferred tax assets, as the Company has determined that it is currently not likely that these assets will be realized. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the valuation allowance decreased by $0.4 million, and during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the valuation allowance increased by $35.3 million and $43.6 million, respectively.
In determining the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. Based on the review of all positive and negative evidence, including athree-year cumulative pretax loss, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance should be recorded against its deferred tax assets, with the exception of the net indefinite lived deferred tax liabilities and the Company’s Texas Temporary Credit for Business Loss Carryforwards.
