Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Business and basis of consolidation | Business and basis of consolidation Orthofix Medical Inc. (previously Orthofix International N.V.) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a global medical device company focused on musculoskeletal products and therapies. The Company’s mission is to improve patients’ lives by providing superior reconstruction and regenerative musculoskeletal solutions to physicians worldwide. Headquartered in Lewisville, Texas, the Company has two reporting segments: Global Spine and Global Extremities. Orthofix products are widely distributed via the Company's sales representatives and distributors. In 2018, the Company completed a change in its jurisdiction of organization from Curaçao to the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”) in accordance with the conversion procedures of Articles 304 and 305 of Book 2 of the Curaçao Civil Code and the domestication procedures of Section 388 of Delaware General Corporation Law. Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, each common share of Orthofix International N.V. was automatically converted into one share of common stock of Orthofix Medical Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a transfer of assets and liabilities between entities under common control, similar to a pooling of interest. As a result, the assets and liabilities were carried forward at their historical carrying amounts. The Company’s common stock continues to be traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “OFIX.” The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
