Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three and Six Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

(Unaudited)

(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

1. GENERAL AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires, references to “K2M,” “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our,” refer to K2M Group Holdings, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

We are a global medical device company focused on designing, developing and commercializing innovative complex spine and minimally invasive technologies and techniques. Our complex spine products are used by spine surgeons to treat some of the most difficult and challenging spinal pathologies, such as deformity (primarily scoliosis), trauma, and tumor. We have applied our product development expertise in innovating complex spine technologies and techniques to the design, development, and commercialization of an expanding number of proprietary minimally invasive surgery, or MIS products. Our MIS products are designed to allow for less invasive access to the spine and faster patient recovery times as compared to traditional open access surgical approaches for both complex spine and degenerative spine pathologies. We have leveraged these core competencies in the design, development and commercialization of an increasing number of products for patients suffering from degenerative spinal conditions.

Unaudited Interim Results

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity as of June 30, 2016, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are unaudited. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis of accounting as the annual consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of future results. All information as of June 30, 2016 and for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2016 and 2015 within these notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements is unaudited.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States or US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per common share is determined by dividing the net loss allocable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented, without consideration of common stock equivalents. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss allocable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. The treasury stock method is used to determine the dilutive effect of our stock option grants. The weighted average shares used to calculate both basic and diluted loss per share are the same because common stock equivalents were excluded in the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. Although included in our outstanding shares total as of June 30, 2016, shares of restricted stock are contingently issuable until their restrictions lapse and have been excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding.

Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Loss

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, which is also the functional currency of our domestic entities, while the functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries are the British Pound, Euro and Swiss Franc. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average exchange rate for the period. Net gains and losses resulting from the translation of foreign financial statements are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Net foreign currency gains or losses resulting from transactions in currencies other than the functional currencies are included in other expense, net on the consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” (EGC) pursuant to the provisions of the JOBS Act and elected to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act which permits EGCs to defer compliance with new or revised accounting standards (the EGC extension) until non-issuers are required to comply with such standards. Accordingly, so long as we continue to qualify as an EGC, we will not have to adopt or comply with new accounting standards until non-issuers are required to comply with such standards.

In March 2016, the FASB issued implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, reporting revenue gross versus net in the new revenue recognition standard. The guidance clarifies how an entity should evaluate the unit of accounting to determine whether it is a specified good or service and how it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. EGCs that have elected the EGC extension, including us, and non-public entities will be required to comply with the guidance for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The guidance may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of the initial application. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance.

In March 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance intended to improve employee share-based payment accounting for companies that issue share-based awards to their employees. This guidance simplifies the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including consequences of income tax award, classification as either equity or liability, treatment of forfeitures, and classification on statement of cash flows. The recognition, measurement and reporting for share-based payments will be affected by this new guidance. For public entities other than EGCs that have elected the EGC extension, the guidance will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. For all other entities, EGCs that have elected the EGC extension, including us, and non-public entities will be required to comply with the guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any annual or interim period for which financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance, but all of the guidance must be adopted in the same period. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

In April 2016, the FASB issued final amendments to clarify the guidance on identifying performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property ("IP") in its new revenue recognition standard. The amendment allows entities to disregard goods or services that are immaterial in the context of a contract, assess whether the performance obligation is separately identifiable and whether the shipping and handling activities are a promised service in a contract. This guidance also clarifies how an entity should evaluate the nature of its promise in granting an IP license and when a promised good or service is distinct within the context of a contract. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. EGCs that have elected the EGC extension, including us, and non-public entities will be required to comply with the guidance for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance.

In May 2016, the FASB issued guidance related to its new revenue recognition standard. The amendment clarifies that for a contract to be considered completed at transition, an entity should evaluate the collectibility threshold or probability of collecting revenue. It provides that the fair value of noncash consideration such as equity should be measured at contract inception when determining the transaction price and any subsequent changes must be recorded as a gain or loss, not as revenue. The entity has the option to make an accounting policy election to exclude from the transaction price certain types of taxes such as sales tax, value-added tax and excise tax in lieu of evaluating such taxes they collect in all jurisdictions to determine whether a tax is levied to the entity or the customer. The guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. EGCs that have elected the EGC extension, including us, and non-public entities will be required to comply with the guidance for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently assessing the impact of this guidance.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Intellectual Property

In the normal course of business, we enter into agreements to obtain the rights to certain intellectual property. These agreements may require an up-front payment, milestone payments and/or royalties. Typically, we have certain rights to cancel these agreements, with notice, without additional payments due other than the amount due at the time of cancellation. As of June 30, 2016, the aggregate amount of these future payments, assuming achievement of applicable milestones and non-cancellation, was $1,363 over a period not less than five years. Royalties ranging from 2% to 10% of net sales may be due on the sales of related products. Some of the agreements contain minimum annual royalty amounts.

In November 2011, we entered into an agreement to purchase certain proprietary technology which could require us to make additional aggregate payments of up to $13,350 should certain milestones be met, including milestones related to regulatory applications and approvals. Cumulative payments under this agreement totaled $1,350 through June 30, 2016. In addition, milestone payments of $500, $2,000 and $4,000 are due upon the achievement of net sales of related products of $10,000, $25,000 and $50,000, respectively. A royalty payment of 7% of net sales of related products may be due until such sales reaches $20,000.

The medical device industry is characterized by frequent claims and litigation, including claims regarding patent and other

intellectual property rights, as well as, improper hiring practices. We are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceeding against us that would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. However, we are a party in multiple legal actions involving claimants seeking various remedies, including monetary damages, and none of the outcomes are certain or entirely within our control.

12. INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 includes both domestic and foreign income taxes at applicable statutory rates adjusted for permanent differences and valuation allowances. For the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, the income tax expense was $49 and $19, resulting in an effective tax rate of (0.4)% and (0.3)%, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, income tax expense was $74 and $42, resulting in an effective tax rate of (0.3)% and (0.2)%, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to permanent differences, an increase to the valuation allowance and foreign tax rate differentials.

13. NET LOSS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per share:



	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016			2015			2016			2015
Net loss per common share:
Net loss	$	(11,098	)	$	(6,222	)	$	(21,283	)	$	(20,507	)
Basic and diluted loss per common share:
Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	41,622,027			39,836,509			41,487,575			39,291,183
Basic and diluted loss per common share	$	(0.27	)	$	(0.16	)	$	(0.51	)	$	(0.52	)

Diluted loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 does not reflect the following outstanding common shares, as the effect would be antidilutive:



	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016	2015	2016	2015
Stock options	3,799,028	3,576,664	3,799,028	3,576,664

Restricted stock	245,157	—	245,157	—

14. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONCENTRATION

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. We manage the business globally within one reporting segment. Segment information is consistent with how management reviews the business, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. Products are sold principally in the United States. International revenue represented 23.6% and 24.3% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016; however, revenue earned in any individual foreign country is below 10% of our consolidated revenue.

The following table represents total revenue by geographic area, based on the location of the customer:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
United States	$	45,238	$	41,434	$	87,431	$	76,596
International	13,989		14,920		28,102		30,182
Total	$	59,227	$	56,354	$	115,533	$	106,778

We classify sales within the United States into three categories: complex spine pathologies, minimally invasive procedures and degenerative and other conditions. A significant portion of our international revenue is derived from our distributor partners who do not report their product usage at the surgeon or hospital level, which prevents us from providing a specific breakdown for our international revenue among its three product categories. These sales transactions are settled when we ship the product to the agent.

In the fourth quarter of 2015, we refined our reporting of procedure revenue that included the sale of certain single-use MIS products which are sold in support of degenerative surgical procedures as degenerative revenue. Historically these sales were reflected in the MIS product category. As a result of this reclassification, our historically reported MIS revenue has decreased and our degenerative revenue has increased approximately $872 and $1,301 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 to conform to the current year presentation.

The following table represents domestic revenue by current procedure category:



	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Complex spine	$	18,535	$	17,131	$	34,465	$	31,352

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. You should review the cautionary statements under the heading “Part I: Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Our actual results could differ materially from those contained in or implied by the forward-looking statements. See “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” following the Table of Contents for further information regarding forward-looking statements. Certain amounts and percentages in this discussion and analysis have been rounded for convenience of presentation. Unless otherwise noted, the figures in the following discussions are unaudited.

Overview

We are a global medical device company focused on designing, developing and commercializing innovative and proprietary complex spine and minimally invasive spine technologies and techniques. Our complex spine products are used by spine surgeons to treat some of the most difficult and challenging spinal pathologies, such as deformity (primarily scoliosis), trauma and tumor. We believe these procedures typically receive a higher rate of positive insurance coverage and often generate more revenue per procedure as compared to other spine surgery procedures. We have applied our product development expertise in innovating complex spine technologies and techniques to the design, development and commercialization of an expanding number of proprietary MIS products. These proprietary MIS products are designed to allow for less invasive access to the spine and faster patient recovery times compared to traditional open access surgical approaches. We have also leveraged these core competencies in the design, development and commercialization of an increasing number of products for patients suffering from degenerative spinal conditions.

We categorize our revenue in the United States amongst revenue generated from the treatment of complex spine pathologies, treatment using MIS approaches and the treatment of degenerative spinal conditions. We define our complex spine procedures as those that involve the treatment of the most difficult and challenging spinal pathologies, such as deformity (primarily scoliosis), trauma and tumor. We consider MIS procedures as degenerative procedures done through minimally invasive approaches designed to allow for less invasive access to the spine and faster patient recovery times as compared to traditional open access surgical approaches. We categorize degenerative procedures as those involving traditional non-MIS products treating degenerative spinal conditions such as traditional spinal fusions. We report revenue related to the sale of biomaterials as part of our complex spine, MIS and degenerative spine revenue categories. We expect our revenue to continue to be driven by aggregate sales growth in all categories. Our revenue classifications may evolve as we grow our business, continue to commercialize new products, adapt to surgeon preferences and surgical techniques and expand our sales globally.

The primary market for our products has been the United States, including the territory of Puerto Rico, where we sell our products through a hybrid sales organization consisting of direct sales employees and independent sales agencies. As of June 30, 2016, our U.S. sales force consisted of 130 direct sales employees and 90 independent sales agencies, who distribute our products and are compensated through a combination of base salaries, individual and company-based performance bonuses, commissions and stock options. We do not sell our products through or participate in PODs.

We also market and sell our products internationally in 37 countries. We sell our products directly in certain markets such as the United Kingdom and Germany, use independent agencies in Italy and Canada and through independent distributors in other markets such as Australia, Japan and Spain. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, international sales accounted for approximately 23.6% and 24.3% of our revenue. As of June 30, 2016, our international sales force consisted of 37 direct sales employees, 10 independent agencies and 25 independent distributors. Our independent distributors manage the billing relationship with each hospital in their respective territories and are responsible for servicing the product needs of their surgeon customers. We believe there are significant opportunities for us to increase our presence internationally through the expansion of our distributorship network and the commercialization of additional products and product extensions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, revenue denominated in currencies other than in U.S. dollars represented less than 10.0% of our consolidated revenue.

Components of our Results of Operations

We manage our business globally within one reportable segment, which is consistent with how our management reviews our business, prioritizes investment and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance.

Revenue

We market and sell spinal implants, disposables and instruments, primarily to hospitals, for use by surgeons to treat patients with spinal pathologies. In the United States and international markets where we have direct employee sales locations, which include the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, Austria and Switzerland, we manage and maintain the sales relationships with our hospital customers. In those international markets where we utilize independent distributors, we do not manage or maintain the sales relationships with the hospital customers. We do, however, support our distributor partners by providing product training, medical education and engineering expertise to surgeons practicing in these markets.

In markets where we have a direct presence, we generally assign our surgical sets to our direct sales employees and agency partners. A surgical set typically contains the instruments, including any disposables, and spinal implants necessary to complete a successful surgery. With our support, the direct sales employee maintains the surgical sets and places them with our hospital customers for use by surgeons. We recognize revenue upon receipt of a delivered order confirming that our products have been used in a surgical procedure or following shipment and transfer of title to a hospital that purchases products in advance of the surgery.

In our international markets where we utilize independent distributors, we generally sell our surgical sets and the related spinal implant replenishments to our distributors on pre-agreed business terms. We recognize revenue when the title to the goods and the risk of loss related to those goods are transferred. All such sales to distributors are not subject to contingencies and are, therefore, final. International revenue was 23.6% and 26.5% of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, compared to 24.3% and 28.3% of total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

We generated 56.5% and 55.9% of our U.S. revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively from the sale of our complex spine and MIS products and 55.3% and 55.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We expect that these core product categories will continue to be a significant contributor to our revenue growth in the future.

While we believe the proportion of our international revenue from complex spine and MIS is higher than in the United States, a significant portion of our international revenue is derived from our distributor partners who do not report their product usage at the surgeon or hospital level, which prevents us from providing a specific breakdown for our international revenue among our three product categories.

For 2016, we expect an overall decline in our international revenue from our distributors in Australia and Japan when compared to 2015. The expected decrease is a result of factors including the status of our product registrations, changes in distributor management and their approach to inventory management and the impact of anticipated fluctuations in foreign exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar on instrument and implant purchase decisions. Revenue from distributors in our Asia/Pacific markets, which includes Australia and Japan represented approximately 4.5% and 6.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, compared to 4.7% and 7.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Cost of Revenue

Except for certain specialty products that we manufacture in-house, our instruments, spinal implants, disposables, instruments and related offerings are manufactured to our specifications by third-party suppliers who meet our manufacturer qualification standards. Our third-party manufacturers meet FDA, International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and other country-specific quality standards supported by our internal specifications and procedures. Substantially all of our suppliers manufacture our products in the United States. Our cost of revenue consists primarily of costs of products purchased from our third-party suppliers, amortization of surgical instruments, inventory reserves, royalties, inbound shipping, inspection and related costs incurred in making our products available for sale or use. Cost of revenue also includes related personnel and consultants' compensation and stock-based compensation expense. Through December 31, 2015, our cost of revenue included the effect of a 2.3% excise tax on the sale of medical devices sold in the United States. Such tax was suspended by the U.S. for a two year period beginning in 2016. We expect our cost of revenue to increase in absolute terms due primarily to increased sales volume and changes in the geographic mix of our sales as our international operations tend to have a higher cost of revenue as a percentage of sales.

Research and Development

Our research and development expenses primarily consist of research and development, engineering, product development, clinical expenses, regulatory expenses, related consulting services, third-party prototyping services, outside research activities, materials production and other costs associated with the design and development of our products. Research and development expenses also include related personnel and consultants’ compensation and stock-based compensation expense. We expense

research and development costs as they are incurred. We expect to incur additional costs as we continue to design and commercialize new products. While our research and development expense fluctuate from period to period based on the timing of specific research, development and testing initiatives, we generally expect these costs will increase in absolute terms over time as we continue to expand our product portfolio and add related personnel.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses primarily consist of commissions to our independent agencies, as well as compensation, commissions, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation, for personnel employed in our sales, marketing and clinical sales support departments. Sales and marketing also includes the costs of medical education, training, sales related shipping and corporate communications activities. We expect our sales and marketing expenses will increase in absolute terms due to increased sales volume, the continued expansion of our sales force and the continued design and commercialization of new products.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses include compensation, benefits and other related costs, including stock-based compensation for personnel employed in our executive management, finance, regulatory, information technology and human resource departments, as well as facility costs and costs associated with consulting and other finance, legal, information technology and human resource services provided by third-parties. We include legal and litigation expenses as well as costs related to the development and protection of our intellectual property portfolio in general and administrative expenses. We expect our general and administrative expenses to continue to increase in absolute dollars as we hire additional personnel to support the growth of our business. In addition, we expect to incur increased expenses as a result of being a public company. General and administrative expenses also include amortization expense of certain of our intangible assets. However, the amortization of such assets is expected to decline over the next several years as such assets subject to amortization become fully amortized based on their estimated useful lives.

Income Tax Provision

We are taxed at the rates applicable within each jurisdiction in which we operate and/or generate revenue. The effective income tax rate, tax provisions, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities will vary according to the jurisdiction in which profits arise. Tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations by management and the respective governmental taxing authorities, and require us to exercise judgment in determining our income tax provision, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and the valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined using the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized. A valuation allowance is established when it is more likely than not that the future realization of all or some of the deferred tax assets will not be achieved.

Material Trends and Uncertainties

The global spinal surgery industry has been growing as a result of:


•	the increased accessibility of healthcare to more people worldwide;


•	advances in technologies for treating conditions of the spine, which have increased the addressable market of patients; and


•	overall population growth, aging patient demographics and an increase in life expectancies around the world.

Nonetheless, we face a number of challenges and uncertainties, including:


•	ongoing requirements from our hospital partners related to pricing and operating procedures;


•	changes in macroeconomic conditions influencing patients to delay elective surgeries;


•	continued market acceptance of our new product innovations;


•	the unpredictability of government regulation over healthcare in the worldwide markets;


•	competitive threats in the future displacing current surgical treatment protocols;


•	the impact of industry consolidation on the overall market;


•	the unpredictability of foreign currency exchange rates and the exchange impact on independent distributors outside the United States who pay for our products in U.S. dollars;


•	competitive threats to our existing surgeon network;


•	dependence on our network of direct sales employees, independent sales agencies and international distributors to maintain and expand the level of sales or distribution activity with respect to our products; and


•	adverse effects and potential risks associated with the expected exit of United Kingdom from the European Union (“EU”) such as greater restrictions on imports and exports between the U.K. and E.U. countries and increased regulatory complexity.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our revenue by geography expressed as dollar amounts and the changes in such revenue between the specified periods expressed in dollar amounts and as percentages:



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2016		2015		$ Change			% Change
	(In thousands)
United States	$	45,238	$	41,434	$	3,804		9.2	%
International	13,989		14,920		(931		)	(6.2	)%
Total revenue	$	59,227	$	56,354	$	2,873		5.1	%

Total revenue increased $2.8 million, or 5.1%, to $59.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $56.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by $7.5 million in greater sales volume from new surgeon users in the United States, a $3.2 million increase in the United States resulting from new product offerings, partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our existing U.S. customer base and a reduction of revenue in international distributor revenue in Japan and Saudi Arabia.

U.S. Revenue

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our U.S. revenue by product category expressed as dollar amounts and the changes in such revenue between the specified periods expressed in dollar amounts and percentages. In the fourth quarter of 2015, we refined our reporting of procedure revenue that included the sale of certain single-use MIS products which are sold in support of degenerative surgical procedures as degenerative revenue. Historically, these sales were reflected in the MIS product category. As a result of this reclassification, our historically reported MIS revenue has decreased and our degenerative revenue has increased by approximately $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to conform to the current year presentation.



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2016
	2016		2015		$ Increase		% Change

Total U.S. revenue	$	45,238	$	41,434	$	3,804	9.2	%

U.S. revenue increased $3.8 million, or 9.2%, to $45.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $41.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Sales in our complex spine, MIS and degenerative categories represented 41.0%, 15.5% and 43.5% of U.S. revenue, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 41.3%, 14.6% and 44.1% of U.S. revenue, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The overall U.S. revenue growth was driven by new surgeon users representing $7.5 million of the revenue change, offset, in part, by unfavorable changes in price and a decrease in existing customer usage. Complex spine growth of $1.4 million primarily reflects increased surgeon usage of our EVEREST^(R)systems of $1.5 million. MIS growth of $1.0 million primarily reflects increased surgeon usage of our EVEREST^(R) minimally invasive products of $0.8 million and increased usage of our biomaterials offerings of $0.2 million. Degenerative growth of $1.4 million primarily reflects surgeon usage of our new CASCADIA^™ interbody devices featuring Lamellar 3D Titanium Technology™ of $1.9 million.

International Revenue

International revenue decreased $0.9 million, or 6.2%, to $14.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $14.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. International revenue decreased primarily as a result of reduced investments by our distributor partner in Saudi Arabia of $0.9 million and a disruption in the registration of our products in Japan resulting in a $0.7 million reduction, partially offset by increases in our direct markets of $0.3 million, primarily Germany and Ireland.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased $1.0 million, or 5.4%, to $19.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $18.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume and higher inventory reserve expense. Instrument amortization expense increased $0.4 million, or 12.4%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $3.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015. In addition, the cost of revenue associated with the medical device excise tax in the United States was approximately $(0.9) million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, representing expected recoveries of over paid taxes as compared to $0.7 million expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The medical device excise tax was suspended by the U.S. for a two year period beginning in January, 2016.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased as a percentage of revenue to 66.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from 67.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to higher inventory reserve expense and increased instrument amortization expense, mostly offset by the suspension and expected recoveries of the medical device excise tax.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $0.8 million, or 14.8%, to $5.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $5.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased spending on third-party research, prototypes, and testing.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased $1.2 million, or 4.4%, to $29.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $27.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales commissions as a result of increased sales volume and increased spending on meetings and conferences.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $0.6 million, or 4.4%, to $14.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $13.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll expenses, including stock-based compensation, partially offset by decreased third-party legal expenses. General and administrative expenses includes amortization of intangible assets of $2.6 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Other (Expense) Income, net

Other (expense) income, net, increased $4.1 million, to $(1.7) million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in other (expense) income, net was primarily attributable to an increase of $3.6 million in unrealized losses from foreign currency remeasurement on intercompany payable balances and interest expense incurred on the capital lease obligation related to our new headquarters and operations facilities.

Net Loss

Net loss increased $4.9 million, or 78.4%, to $11.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from $6.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in our net loss was primarily attributable to increases in losses from foreign currency remeasurement on intercompany payable balances and interest expense incurred on the capital lease.

Total revenue increased $8.7 million, or 8.2%, to $115.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $106.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by $11.4 million in greater sales volume from new surgeon users in the United States, partially offset by a reduction in revenue in our international distributor markets, primarily Australia, Saudi Arabia, and Japan. The increases in the United States were offset in part by a decrease in revenue from our existing customer base.

U.S. Revenue

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our U.S. revenue by product category expressed as dollar amounts and the changes in such revenue between the specified periods expressed in dollar amounts and percentages. In the fourth quarter of 2015, we refined our reporting of procedure revenue that included the sale of certain single-use MIS products which are sold in support of degenerative surgical procedures as degenerative revenue.

Sales in our complex spine, MIS and degenerative categories represented 39.4%, 15.9% and 44.7% of U.S. revenue, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 40.9%, 14.9% and 44.2% of U.S. revenue, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The overall U.S. revenue growth was driven by new surgeon users representing $11.4 million of revenue and from the mix of products sold, offset, in part, by unfavorable changes in price and a decrease in existing customer usage. Complex spine growth of $3.1 million reflects increased surgeon usage of our EVEREST system of $3.0 million. MIS growth of $2.5 million primarily reflects increased surgeon usage of our EVEREST minimally invasive products of $1.7 million and our new CASCADIA interbody devices featuring Lamellar 3D Titanium Technology of $1.0 million. Degenerative growth of $5.3 million primarily reflects increased surgeon usage of our new CASCADIA interbody devices featuring Lamellar 3D Titanium Technology of $3.2 million, increased usage of our EVEREST product line of $1.9 million, and increased surgeon usage of our biomaterials offering of $1.3 million.

International Revenue

International revenue decreased $2.1 million, or 6.9%, to $28.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $30.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. International revenue decreased primarily as a result of reduced investments by our distributor partners in Australia of $1.5 million and Saudi Arabia of $1.1 million as well as a disruption in the registration of our products in Japan of $0.8 million, partially offset by increases in our direct markets of $0.9 million, primarily Germany and Ireland.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased $3.1 million, or 8.6%, to $39.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $36.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased sales volume, inventory reserve allowance, and instrument amortization expense associated with our continued investment in inventory. Instrument amortization expense increased $0.7 million, or 11.5%, to $6.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. In addition, the cost of revenue associated with the medical device excise tax in the United States was approximately $(0.9) million representing expected recoveries of over paid taxes and an expense of $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased as a percentage of revenue to 66.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from 66.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to increased inventory allowance and higher instrument amortization expense, mostly offset by the suspension of the medical device excise tax.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $1.1 million, or 11.8%, to $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher payroll expense, including stock-based compensation, and increased development of products in our product pipeline.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased $3.9 million, or 7.5%, to $56.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $52.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to an increase in sales commissions as a result of the increased sales volume and increased employee compensation costs resulting from our hiring of direct sales employees since June 30, 2014. The increase is also due in part to increased spending on meetings and conferences.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million, or 4.2%, to $28.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $26.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased employee compensation and benefit costs associated with the increase in personnel to support the expansion of our business, amortization of the compensation cost of RSUs and restricted stock awards, partially offset by decreased third-party legal expenses. General and administrative expenses included amortization of intangible assets of $5.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Other (Expense) Income, net

Other expense, net, increased $0.1 million to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in other expense was attributable to an increase in interest expense of $1.1 million,

partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in unrealized losses from foreign currency translation on intercompany payable balances.

Net Loss

Net loss increased $0.8 million or 3.8% to $21.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $20.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in our net loss was primarily attributable to higher operating expenses attributable to greater sales activity.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA represents net loss plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense and foreign currency transaction (gain) loss. Adjusted EBITDA will also include a deduction for cash payments made for rent on our new headquarters and operations facilities under the capital lease agreement once rent payments commence in September 2016.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a useful indicator of our operating performance. Our management uses Adjusted EBITDA principally as a measure of our operating performance and for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget and financial projections. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We also believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to our management and investors as a measure of comparative operating performance from period to period.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net loss as a measure of financial performance or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP and it should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a measure of free cash flow for management’s discretionary use, as it does not reflect certain cash requirements such as tax payments, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and certain other cash costs that may recur in the future. Adjusted EBITDA contains certain other limitations, including the failure to reflect our cash expenditures, cash requirements for working capital needs and cash costs to replace assets being depreciated and amortized. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by any such adjustments. Management compensates for these limitations by primarily relying on our GAAP results in addition to using Adjusted EBITDA supplementally. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to different methods of calculation.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception in 2004, we have incurred significant operating losses and anticipate that our losses will continue in the near term. We expect our operating expenses will continue to grow as we expand our product portfolio, penetrate further into existing markets and enter into new markets. We will need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability as we grow our business.

As of June 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $19.8 million as compared to $34.6 million as of December 31, 2015. We had working capital of $98.9 million as of as June 30, 2016 compared to $107.4 million as of December 31, 2015.

In addition, we had total long-term borrowings outstanding under our credit facility of $19.5 million compared to $0 at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

We are actively exploring acquisition, investment or strategic partnership opportunities to further enhance our product portfolio or development pipeline for future products. We expect these opportunities may result in additional expense or an increase in intellectual property assets when any such agreements are completed or over the period of development of such technologies. In some cases, the development period of the technologies and related expense may extend multiple years in advance of revenue generation.

Our principal long-term liquidity need is working capital to support the continued growth of our business through the hiring of direct sales employees and partnering with independent sales agencies to expand our global sales force, purchases of additional inventory to support future sales activities and the development and commercialization of new products through our research and development efforts. We expect to fund our long-term capital needs with cash and cash equivalents and availability under our revolving credit facility (which may vary due to changes in our borrowing base) and cash flow from operations. In addition, we may obtain additional liquidity to continue to execute our business strategy through the incurrence of additional indebtedness, additional equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds.

Although we believe that these sources will provide sufficient liquidity for us to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, our liquidity and our ability to fund these needs will depend to a significant extent on our future financial performance, which will be subject in part to general economic, competitive, financial, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. In addition to these general economic and industry factors, the principal factors determining whether our cash flows will be sufficient to meet our long-term liquidity requirements will be our ability to provide attractive products to our customers, changes in our customers’ ability to obtain third-party coverage and reimbursement for procedures that use our products, increased pricing pressures resulting from intensifying competition, cost increases and slower product development cycles resulting from a changing regulatory environment. If those factors change significantly or other unexpected factors adversely affect us, our business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations and future financings may not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all to meet our liquidity needs.

In assessing our liquidity, management reviews and analyzes our current cash-on-hand, the average number of days our accounts receivable are outstanding, payment terms that we have established with our vendors, inventory turns, foreign exchange rates, capital expenditure commitments and income tax rates.

Cash Flows

The following table shows our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively:



	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2016			2015
	(In thousands)
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(16,057	)	$	(12,335	)

Net cash provided by financing activities	20,376			36,338
Effect of exchange rate on cash	(209		)	(173		)
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(14,810	)	$	17,376

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities increased $3.8 million to $16.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net cash used in operations was primarily due to increased inventory purchases during the six months ended June 30, 2016 to support our business growth plans and the timing of prepaid expenses and other current asset payments.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased $12.4 million to $18.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was primarily attributable to investments in furniture and equipment that were placed in service during the current quarter following our move to the new corporate headquarters and operations facilities and increased purchases of surgical instruments. These cash outlays were partially offset by the use of restricted cash to fund a portion of our leasehold improvements. Cash used from investing

activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 also included a milestone payment of approximately $1.3 million following the clearance of our CE Marking from the Notified Body (BSI Group) with respect to our RHINE™ cervical arthroplasty solution intended for markets outside the U.S.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $15.9 million to $20.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 from $36.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we borrowed $19.5 million from our line of credit. We generated cash proceeds from issuances of common stock, net of issuance costs of $35.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Capital Expenditures

Our capital expenditures were $22.1 million and $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, consisting primarily of consigned instrumentation to support surgical sales and expansion of our global distribution network and an increase in property, plant and equipment expenditures resulting from our move to the new corporate headquarters and operations facilities.

During the second quarter of 2016, we completed the leasehold improvements necessary to commence operations at our new corporate headquarters and operations facility. In addition, we completed the build-out for the relocation of our Malvern, Pennsylvania operations into the new Leesburg facility. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we paid approximately $8.5 million for the associated improvements and build-out costs and approximately $3.4 million for furniture, fixtures and capital equipment. These improvements and other capital costs were funded through a combination of escrow amounts (restricted cash) of $4.4 million, cash on hand and borrowings under our credit facility. In addition, we expect to pay approximately $2.6 million to complete the build-out and improvement efforts in the third quarter of 2016 of which approximately $2.0 million will be funded from remaining escrow (restricted cash) balances and $0.6 million from cash and cash equivalents and borrowings.

We expect capital expenditures to increase as we continue to expand our global distribution network and related purchase of additional surgical instruments.

Indebtedness

Revolving Credit Facility

The credit facility, as amended, consists of a revolving credit facility of $55.0 million with a sub-facility for letters of credit in the aggregate availability amount of $10.0 million and a swingline sub-facility in the aggregate availability amount of $5.0 million. The maturity date of the credit agreement is October 29, 2017. As of June 30, 2016, we had $19.5 million Alternate Base Rate ("ABR") loans outstanding on the credit facility and approximately $23.9 million of unused borrowing capacity. In addition, we had one issued and undrawn letter of credit for $6.0 million representing a security deposit on the new corporate headquarters and operations facilities lease.

ABR loans under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to ABR, plus 0.75%. LIBOR loans under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) LIBOR, plus 3.0%. The total obligations under the amended credit facility cannot exceed the lesser of (i) the total revolving commitment of $55.0 million or (ii) the borrowing base, which is calculated as (x) 85% of accounts receivable so long as certain of those accounts receivable do not exceed, in the aggregate, 50% of the borrowing base plus (y) 50% of the value of the eligible inventory provided that the contribution of the value of the eligible inventory not exceed the lesser of 40% of the borrowing base or $15.0 million plus (z) up to $7.5 million to the extent the Borrower and its subsidiaries maintain at least $12.5 million on deposit with a lender or an affiliate of a lender. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility remain secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the Borrower’s personal property assets, including intellectual property.

The revolving credit facility contains various financial covenants and negative covenants with which the Company must maintain compliance, including a consolidated adjusted quick ratio for K2M, Inc., K2M UK Limited and select subsidiaries not less than 1.20:1.00 as of the last day of any month; restrictive covenants which limit the Company’s ability to pay dividends on common stock and make certain investments, and the provision of certain financial reporting and company information as required. We were in compliance with all the financial and other covenants of the credit facility at June 30, 2016.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2016, we had one issued but undrawn letter of credit for $6.0 million representing a security deposit on the new corporate headquarters and operations facilities lease.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We use historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for our judgments and making these estimates. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Any changes in those estimates will be reflected in our condensed consolidated financial statements as they occur.

Management believes that the accounting estimates employed are appropriate and resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to these balances in future periods. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are described under Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates - of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. We have reviewed our policies and determined that those policies remain the Company’s critical accounting policies as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Please see "Note 1 - General and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Recent Accounting Pronouncements" for additional information.

Deformity Business Seasonality and Other Quarterly Fluctuations in Revenue

Our revenue is typically higher in the late Spring and Summer and in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, driven by higher sales of our complex spine products, which is influenced by the higher incidence of adolescent surgeries during these periods to coincide with the beginning of summer vacation and holiday periods. In addition, our international revenue fluctuates quarterly based on the timing of product registration, expansion to new markets and product orders from our exclusive international distribution partners.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Overview Regarding Market Risks

We are exposed to various market risks, which may result in potential losses arising from adverse changes in market rates, such as interest rates and foreign exchange rates. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes and do not believe we are exposed to material market risk with respect to our cash and cash equivalents.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk in connection with any future borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which bears interest at floating rates. For variable rate debt, interest rate changes do not affect the fair value of the debt instrument, but do impact future earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors are held constant. We do not believe that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant impact on our net loss for the period or on cash flow.

Foreign Exchange Risk

We operate in countries other than the United States, and, therefore, we are exposed to foreign currency risks. In the European markets where we manage billing relationships, we transact our business in local currencies, which are comprised primarily of Pounds Sterling and the Euro. As of June 30, 2016, revenue denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars represented less than 10% of our total revenue. Operating expenses related to these sales are largely denominated in the same respective currency, thereby limiting our transaction risk exposure. We therefore believe that the risk of an impact on our operating income from foreign currency fluctuations is not significant. In addition, we have intercompany foreign transactions between our subsidiaries, which are denominated in currencies other than their functional currency. Fluctuations from the beginning to the end of any given reporting period result in the re-measurement of our intercompany foreign transactions generating

transaction gains or losses in the respective period and are reported in total other income (expense), net in our consolidated financial statements.

We recorded a foreign currency transaction (loss) gain of $(1.0) million and $2.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, compared to $(0.6) million and $(1.5) million during the six months ended months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The monetary assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries denominated in other currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at each balance sheet date resulting in a foreign currency translation adjustment reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Within other comprehensive loss, we recorded foreign currency translation adjustment (loss) income of $(1.4) million and $(1.0) million in the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and $(2.2) and $1.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Our contracts with foreign distributors are denominated and settled in U.S. dollars. Such foreign distributors are impacted by foreign currency fluctuations which in turn may impact their ability to pay us in a timely manner. Revenue from such customers approximated 13.9% and 14.5% of our revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and represented 33.1% of our net outstanding accounts receivable at June 30, 2016.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d - 15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three month period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The medical device industry is characterized by frequent claims and litigation, including claims regarding patent and other intellectual property rights as well as improper hiring practices. We are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceeding against us that we expect would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition. However, we are a party in multiple legal actions involving claimants seeking various remedies, including monetary damages and none of the outcomes are certain or entirely within our control.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the Risk Factors as previously disclosed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 which is accessible on the SEC's website at www.SEC.gov.

Unless otherwise stated, the sales of the above securities were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, or Rule 701 promulgated under Section 3(b) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.
