August 6, 2020
LEWISVILLE, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Orthofix Medical Inc. (NASDAQ:OFIX) today reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2020. Net sales were $73.1 million, earnings per share (“EPS”) was ($0.96) and adjusted EPS was ($0.59).
“Despite the significant impact of COVID-19 in the second quarter, we continued to execute successfully against our strategic initiatives,” said Orthofix President and Chief Executive Officer Jon Serbousek. “In particular, with the regulatory clearances of the Firebird™ SI Fusion System and the JuniOrtho™ Plating System, we believe we are making progress in creating a high-velocity new product innovation program.”
Mr. Serbousek continued, “After reaching a low point in April, revenues rebounded sequentially in both May and June in large part due to the business continuity initiatives we put into place as well our emphasis on accelerating our commercial efforts. For example, even in spite of the lower elective procedure volumes during the quarter, Motion Preservation U.S. sales continued to outperform our expectations, with rapid adoption of the M6-C™ artificial cervical disc. Looking to the balance of the year, we are optimistic about the continued recovery in our business and markets and intend to continue to invest in our strategic initiatives aimed at driving growth in the business while maintaining the strength of our balance sheet to best position Orthofix for long-term success. However, we believe it is still difficult to accurately predict the ongoing disruption that will be caused by the pandemic.”
