Item 8.01 – Other Events.

On October 6, 2022, AngioDynamics, Inc. (“AngioDynamics”) announced that a jury verdict has been rendered in its antitrust action against C.R. Bard, Inc. and Bard Access Systems, Inc. (collectively, “Bard”) (now part of Becton Dickinson & Co.) in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York.  Following a two-week trial, the jury found Bard had not unlawfully restrained competition in the U.S. market for percutaneously inserted central catheters (“PICCs”), a medical device used for vascular access, in the United States.  While AngioDynamics is disappointed with the results, the company remains committed to its core value of improving quality of life for patients.  At this time, AngioDynamics is considering an appeal.
