Current report

On August 31, 2026, the Company entered into a binding offer to acquire eCential Robotics SAS (“eCential”), a leading developer of enabling technologies and surgical robotics, for an enterprise value, net of acquired cash, of approximately €155.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, which corresponds to approximately €176.0 million in up-front cash consideration to be paid to eCential’s shareholders at closing, and up to an additional €35.0 million to be paid in cash upon the achievement of certain milestones, as defined in the terms of the definitive securities purchase agreement, which was executed on September 28, 2026, following the completion of the required works council consultation process. The closing of the eCential Acquisition is subject to the receipt of applicable regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Current report

In conjunction with our Form 10-Q filing for the first quarter of 2026, we revised our definition of Adjusted EBITDA to no longer adjust for inventory step-up charges. Accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA in prior periods has been revised to reflect this change for consistency of presentation.

Current report

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies resulted in $1.4 million unfavorable foreign currency translation impact for the three months ended October 2, 2026

Current report

Operating loss decreased primarily due to the decrease in Goodwill impairment charges, and the aforementioned gross profit increases. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased due to the aforementioned gross margin decrease.

Current report

On November 2, 2026, our Board of Directors terminated the 2018 Share Repurchase Program and approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $200 million in shares of our common stock (the “2026 Share Repurchase Program”). The manner, timing and amount of any repurchases under the 2026 Share Repurchase Program will be determined by our management based on its evaluation of market conditions, stock price, liquidity, and other factors, and will be executed in accordance with applicable securities laws and regulations. Repurchases under the program may be made from time to time through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or other means, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. The repurchase program does not obligate us to acquire a specific dollar amount or number of shares, has no expiration date and may be modified, suspended or discontinued at any time.

Current report

We evaluate the recoverability of Goodwill at the reporting unit level annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change in the interim that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the asset below its carrying amount. Our last quantitative impairment test performed on the first day of the fourth quarter of 2025 resulted in impairment. Due to the decrease in the share price of our common stock, we performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test as of the last day of the third quarter. Such test indicated that no goodwill impairment should be recorded during the quarter. The sum of the fair value of our two reporting units as calculated by management in this quantitative impairment test implies a premium of approximately 46% above our current market capitalization. As of October 2, 2026, the Goodwill of the Prevention & Recovery and Reconstructive reporting units was $390.3 million and $311.8 million, respectively. If there are further declines in our market capitalization or actual results of the business differ from our estimates and projections, there is an increased risk of potential impairment, which could materially affect our financial statements.
