Amendment Description | Orthofix International N.V. (together with its respective consolidated subsidiaries and affiliates, the “Company,” sometimes referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”) is filing this amendment (this “Amendment” or “Form 10-Q/A”) to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014, which was originally filed on May 8, 2014 (the “Original Form 10-Q”). In connection with the Company’s preparation of its consolidated interim quarterly financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2014, the Company determined that certain entries with respect to the previously filed financial statements contained in the Original Form 10-Q and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 (the “2013 Form 10-K”) were not properly accounted for under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). As further described below, these additional errors affect the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, as well as the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014. Due to these errors, the Company determined in August 2014 to restate its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 (including the interim quarterly periods contained within the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012) and the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014, and that the previously filed financial statements for these periods including those contained in the Original Form 10-K) should no longer be relied upon. This Form 10-Q/A contains restated consolidated interim financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. Contemporaneously with the filing of this Form 10-Q/A, the Company is filing (i) an amendment to the 2013 Form 10-K (the “2013 Form 10-K/A”), which amendment contains restated consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, and (ii) its delayed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2014 (the “2014 Second Quarter Form 10-Q”) and September 30, 2014 (the “2014 Third Quarter Form 10-Q”), which contain restated consolidated interim financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013. The corrections of the additional errors in this Form 10-Q/A and the 2013 Form 10-K/A are referred to herein as the “Further Restatement.” |
