Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On April 9, 2020, Orthofix Medical Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release that, among other things, announced preliminary financial results for the first quarter of 2020, provided a general business update (including actions taken in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic), and withdrew the Company's previously announced first quarter and full-year 2020 financial guidance (provided on February 24, 2020). A copy of the release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
The information furnished under this Item 2.02 in this Form 8-K, including the exhibit furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section and shall not be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing made by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as set forth by specific reference in such filing.
Item 2.03. | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On April 9, 2020, the Company initiated a borrowing of $100 million under its existing secured revolving credit facility pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated October 25, 2019, between the Company and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and certain other lender parties thereto. The Company initiated this borrowing to preserve financial flexibility in view of the ongoing business disruptions caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company initially intends to preserve this amount as available cash on hand, in order to fund future operations and strategic initiatives in the event of a prolonged slowdown of elective surgical procedures and/or other prolonged financial effects from COVID-19. Amounts borrowed under the credit facility (including accrued interest) are due and repayable at the facility’s maturity in October 2024, and bear interest at a floating rate. The Company has elected the floating rate to be 3-month LIBOR plus the applicable spread (which spread is initially 1.25%, and going forward is subject to adjustment based on the Company’s net leverage ratio). The Company is permitted to prepay borrowed amounts prior to the maturity date.
