\nThis communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to our business and financial outlook, which are based on our current beliefs, assumptions, expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as \u201cmay,\u201d \u201cwill,\u201d \u201cshould,\u201d \u201cexpects,\u201d \u201cplans,\u201d \u201canticipates,\u201d \u201cbelieves,\u201d \u201cestimates,\u201d \u201cprojects,\u201d \u201cintends,\u201d \u201cpredicts,\u201d \u201cpotential,\u201d or \u201ccontinue\u201d or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements in this communication include the Company’s belief regarding future market share gains and the Company’s expectations regarding net sales and adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2023. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of our future performance, are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions, and are subject to risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict, including the risks described in Part I, Item 1A under the heading Risk Factors<\/i> in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the \u201c2022 Form 10-K\u201d), and in Part II, Item 1A under the heading Risk Factors<\/i> in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Factors that could cause future results to differ from those expressed by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, (i) risks relating to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, (ii) our ability to maintain operations to support our customers and patients in the near-term and to capitalize on future growth opportunities, (iii) risks associated with acceptance of surgical products and procedures by surgeons and hospitals, (iv) development and acceptance of new products or product enhancements, (v) clinical and statistical verification of the benefits achieved via the use of our products, (vi) our ability to adequately manage inventory, (vii) our ability to recruit and retain management and key personnel, (viii) global economic instability and potential supply chain disruption caused by Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine and resulting sanctions, and (ix) the other risks and uncertainties more fully described in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the \u201cSEC\u201d). To the extent that the COVID-19 pandemic continues to adversely affect our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in Part I, Item 1A under the heading Risk Factors<\/i> in the 2022 Form 10-K, such as our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to run our business and our ability to protect our information technology networks and infrastructure from unauthorized access, misuse, malware, phishing and other events that could have a security impact as a result of our remote working environment or otherwise. As a result of these various risks, our actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements.<\/p>\n
\nThis list of risks, uncertainties, and other factors is not complete. We discuss some of these matters more fully, as well as certain risk factors that could affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects, in reports we file from time-to-time with the SEC, which are available to read at www.sec.gov<\/a>. Any or all forward-looking statements that we make may turn out to be wrong (due to inaccurate assumptions that we make or otherwise), and our actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date hereof, unless it is specifically otherwise stated to be made as of a different date. We undertake no obligation to update, and expressly disclaim any duty to update, our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of circumstances or events that arise after the date hereof, new information, or otherwise.<\/p>\n
