Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Business and basis of consolidation | 1. Business and basis of presentation Orthofix Medical Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Orthofix”) is a global medical device company focused on musculoskeletal products and therapies. Headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, the Company has two reporting segments: Global Spine and Global Extremities. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Pursuant to these rules and regulations, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2019. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including those related to revenue recognition; contractual allowances; allowance for doubtful accounts; inventories; valuation of intangible assets; goodwill; fair value measurements, including contingent consideration; litigation and contingent liabilities; tax matters; and share-based compensation. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Prior period reclassifications Certain amortization expense related to intangible assets previously reported in general and administrative expenses have been reclassified to acquisition-related amortization and remeasurement based on use of the underlying intangible asset. This reclassification resulted in a decrease to general and administrative expenses of $0.1 million and an increase in acquisition related amortization and remeasurement expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Change in Reporting Segments The Company has changed its reportable business segments beginning with the first quarter of 2019, to align with changes in how the Company manages its business, reviews operating performance and allocates resources. The Company now reports results under two reportable segments: Global Spine and Global Extremities, and measures operating performance of these two reportable segments based on EBITDA. For additional discussion regarding segments, see Note 12.
