Orthofix Medical (NASDAQ:OFIX – Get Free Report) issued its earnings results on Monday. The medical device company reported ($0.15) earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter, topping analysts’ consensus estimates of ($0.26) by $0.11, Zacks reports. Orthofix Medical had a negative return on equity of 14.05% and a negative net margin of 7.41%. The business had revenue of $207.86 million during the quarter, compared to analysts’ expectations of $210.52 million.
Here are the key takeaways from Orthofix Medical’s conference call:
- Third-quarter results were below expectations: U.S. spine fixation sales fell 5%, affected by market softness, supplier delays and instrument-set constraints. Orthofix lowered its 2026 outlook to $825–$830 million in net sales and $86–$88 million in adjusted EBITDA.
- Results were stronger in other businesses: Limb Reconstruction sales rose 9% and Therapeutic Solutions sales increased 4%; U.S. biologics was roughly flat sequentially, and management said it returned to year-over-year growth in October. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $26 million from $24.6 million a year earlier, despite lower spine revenue.
- Management is concentrating spine resources on core distributors, which generate about 80% of U.S. spinal implant revenue, and said supplier fixes are underway. It expects the VIRATA open-procedure system to launch in the fourth quarter and views the business as better positioned for 2027, though the recovery is expected to take time.
- Orthofix expects an approximately $22 million spine sales headwind in 2027 from European MDR requirements. A European distributor arrangement is expected to add about $15 million to 2026 sales, mostly in Q4, but creates a temporary cash-timing headwind because related cash receipts are expected in 2027.
