Commitments and Contingencies	7. Commitments and Contingencies Arbitration claims with former executives In September 2023, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") terminated the employment of Keith Valentine, John Bostjancic, and Patrick Keran, who had served respectively as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Legal Officer (collectively, the "Former Executives"). The Board’s decision followed an investigation conducted by independent outside legal counsel and directed and overseen by a committee of certain of the Company’s independent directors. At the time of termination, the Company notified each of the Former Executives that their respective terminations of employment were being made for "Cause," as such term is defined in applicable employment-related agreements (including each executive’s respective Change in Control and Severance Agreement, dated June 19, 2023 (the "CIC and Severance Agreements"). The Former Executives subsequently made claims against the Company in arbitration in the State of California, asserting breach of contract because each of them was entitled to the severance payments and other equity-based rights that would be owed to them if their respective termination had been made "without Cause" under the CIC and Severance Agreements, and further asserting damages for purported defamation, false light invasion of privacy, and deceit, as well as indemnification and advancement for attorneys’ fees. On January 26, 2026, the arbitrator in Mr. Valentine’s matter issued a decision denying Mr. Valentine’s defamation, false light invasion of privacy, and deceit claims, and his indemnification of fees claim. Based on the evidence presented during the arbitration process, the arbitrator found that Mr. Valentine’s conduct met the legal definition of "acts of moral turpitude" and that the public statements that the Company made about Mr. Valentine in a press release and filings with the SEC subsequent to the termination of his employment were true. Although Mr. Valentine’s conduct was found to meet the legal definition of "acts of moral turpitude" for purposes of his defamation and other tort claims, and although engaging in "material acts of moral turpitude" would constitute "Cause" under the CIC and Severance Agreement, the arbitrator maintained his preliminary decision issued on October 2, 2025, finding that (i) Mr. Valentine’s conduct prior to his entry into the CIC and Severance Agreement on June 19, 2023 could not be considered for purposes of determining whether "Cause" existed under such agreement, and (ii) his conduct between that date and his termination of employment on September 11, 2023, did not amount to "Cause". As a result, the arbitrator issued an interim award to Mr. Valentine for breach of contract damages in the amount of $11.8 million, finding such amount to be equivalent to the severance and equity-based rights that Mr. Valentine would have received in a "without Cause" termination. The arbitrator also awarded accrued interest, at the pre-judgment interest rate of 10% under California law. On April 22, 2026, the Company made a payment in satisfaction of the arbitrator’s interim award plus accrued interest, in the amount of $14.8 million. On June 24, 2026, the arbitrator issued his final award. The final award (i) confirmed the amounts in the interim award (which were paid by the Company on April 22, 2026), and (ii) awarded an additional $1.1 million to Mr. Valentine for attorneys' fees, costs, and expenses, which the Company has accrued as of June 30, 2026. On April 15, 2026, Mr. Keran’s arbitration claims were settled for $4.25 million. On April 22, 2026, the Company and Mr. Bostjancic entered into a settlement agreement covering all of Mr. Bostjancic’s claims, in the amount of $4.25 million. Payments were made to each of Mr. Keran and Mr. Bostjancic in the amount of $4.25 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2026. In addition to the Former Executives’ arbitration claims, in September 2024, Messrs. Valentine, Bostjancic and Keran filed an action in California State Court against former director and interim CEO Catherine Burzik and current director Wayne Burris, seeking relief for, among other things, alleged defamation, false light invasion of privacy, intentional misrepresentation, false promise, and tortious interference with contract. Mr. Bostjancic dismissed his claims in this action in connection with his settlement agreement. The Company disagrees with the allegations contained in the action against Ms. Burzik and Mr. Burris and will continue vigorously defending the asserted claims. The Company currently cannot reasonably estimate a possible loss, or range of loss, that may arise from the action. Securities class action complaints On August 21, 2024, a securities class action complaint captioned Bernal v. Orthofix Medical Inc., et al., Case No. 24-cv-00690, was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas (the "Bernal Complaint"). The plaintiff, a purported Company shareholder, alleges through the complaint violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, and SEC Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and names as defendants the Company and the following former Company directors and officers: Jon Serbousek (former director and former President and Chief Executive Officer), Keith Valentine (former director and former President and Chief Executive Officer), John Bostjancic (former Chief Financial Officer), and Patrick Keran (former Chief Legal Officer). The complaint alleges that the Company made, and the named former directors and officers caused the Company to make, materially false and misleading statements between October 11, 2022, and September 12, 2023, that, according to the complaint, falsely assured the market of Messrs. Valentine, Bostjancic, and Keran's respective commitments to, among other things, ethical and legal standards and corporate responsibility. On September 6, 2024, a securities class action complaint captioned O'Hara v. Orthofix Medical Inc., et al., Case No. 24-cv-01593, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California (the "O'Hara Complaint"). The plaintiff, a purported former shareholder of SeaSpine at the time of the Merger, alleges through the complaint violations of Sections 11, 12 and 15 of the Securities Act, and names most of the same defendants as the Bernal Complaint, as well as certain additional current and/or former Company directors and officers. The complaint makes similar assertions to the Bernal complaint, and alleges that the Company's registration statement on Form S-4 filed in 2022 in connection with the Merger, as well as related written and oral offering materials, contained untrue statements of material fact and material omissions, including, among other things, with respect to the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls. On November 26, 2024, the O'Hara Complaint was transferred to the Eastern District of Texas, and on December 11, 2024, the O'Hara Complaint was consolidated with the Bernal Complaint. On April 17, 2025, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in the consolidated action, captioned In re Orthofix Medical Inc. Securities Litigation, with substantially the same allegations contained in the Bernal Complaint and the O'Hara Complaint. The consolidated case is captioned In re Orthofix Medical Inc. Securities Litigation, Case No. 24-cv-00690 and is pending in the Eastern District of Texas. The Company and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint on May 15, 2025. On March 9, 2026, the Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the plaintiffs’ claims under the Exchange Act (but not those under the Securities Act), finding that (i) all but one of the Company’s statements at issue were immaterial as a matter of law, and (ii) no statements caused loss. The Court provided the plaintiffs with leave to amend their complaint to address pleading deficiencies, and plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on April 8, 2026, which the Company and the individual defendants moved to dismiss on May 8, 2026. On October 28, 2024, a derivative shareholder complaint was filed against certain of the Company's current and former officers and directors alleging derivative liability for the allegations made in the two complaints noted above. On December 18, 2024, a second derivative shareholder complaint was filed with the same allegations made in the first derivative shareholder complaint. On March 21, 2025, the two derivative shareholder complaints were consolidated into one case. The Company disagrees with the legal claims asserted in these complaints and is vigorously defending them. Due in part to the preliminary nature of these three matters, the Company currently cannot reasonably estimate a possible loss, or range of loss, that may arise from the respective complaints. Commitments As a result of the Merger, the Company became party to agreements with certain distributor partners that provide the Company with an option to purchase, and an option for those partners to require the Company to purchase, the distribution business of those partners at specified future dates. At such time, the Company or distributor may (in certain cases, subject to satisfying certain conditions) submit written notice to the other of its intention to exercise its rights and initiate or require the purchase. Upon receipt of the written notice, the Company and the distributor will work in good faith to consummate the purchase, provided that the distributor meets the required conditions of such purchase option. Under certain of these agreements, the purchase price would be paid in shares of the Company's common stock, whereas for others, the purchase price can be paid in cash or shares, at the Company's option. Based on the closing price of the Company's common stock as of June 30, 2026, assuming the options under all the relevant agreements were exercised, the estimated total number of shares the Company would issue under these agreements was approximately 0.5 million shares for agreements that must be settled in shares of the Company's stock. The Company has received notification from one such distributor, who has notified the Company of its decision to exercise its buyout option. The Company is currently in negotiations with this distributor with respect to the conditions of a potential acquisition, the consummation of which may be deferred to a future date. 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. In the third quarter of 2022, the Italian Ministry of Health provided guidelines to the Italian regions and provinces on seeking payback of expenditure overruns relating to the 2015 through 2018 calendar years. Since receiving the guidelines, several regions and provinces have requested payment from affected medical device companies, including the Company. The Company has taken legal action to dispute the legality of such measures. In July 2024, the Italian Constitutional Court issued two judgments following public hearings on the matter held in May 2024. These judgments (i) declared the payback system itself as constitutionally legitimate and (ii) extended previously communicated reductions in the payback liability for certain fiscal years to all medical device companies, regardless of whether or not they had waived their legal claims on the matter. The Company accounts for the estimated cost of the IMDP as sales, general, and administrative expense and periodically reassesses the liability based upon current facts and circumstances. As a result, the Company recorded expenses of $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and expenses of $0.3 million and $0.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, the Company has accrued $11.0 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 all legal proceedings are resolved and upon further clarification of the IMDP by the Italian authorities.
