Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent events	Subsequent events On April 4, 2023, Mr. Reali resigned as a director and officer of the Company, and Mr. Anthony P. Bihl III was appointed as Interim Chief Executive Officer of the Company and as a Class III director of the Company, effective April 5, 2023. Mr. Bihl succeeds Mr. Reali as the Company’s principal executive officer. On April 6, 2023, the Company repaid $15,000 on its revolving credit facility. On May 10, 2023 the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Wound Business, including TheraSkin and TheraGenesis, for total potential cash consideration of $85,000, including $35,000 at closing, $5,000 deferred for 18 months and $45,000 in potential earn-out payments. The Company expects to net approximately $30,000 at closing after fees and expenses that will be used to repay existing debt. The sale of the Wound Business is expected to close approximately one week before the end of May 2023.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Going Concern	Going concern The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, which presumes that the Company’s liquidation is not imminent; however, based on the Company’s current financial position and liquidity sources, including current cash balances, and forecasted future cash flows, the Company is at risk of violating certain of its financial covenants under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated December 6, 2019 (as amended on October 29, 2021, July 11, 2022 and March 31, 2023). If mitigating steps are not taken or are not successful, the Company is at substantial risk of failing its covenants in 2024. A breach of a financial covenant under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement could accelerate repayment of our obligations under the agreement. Refer to Note 4. Financial instruments for further discussion concerning the Company’s long-term debt obligations. The Company is actively pursuing plans to mitigate these conditions and events, such as considering various additional cost cutting measures, and exploring additional divestiture opportunities such as the recently announced plan to divest certain assets within its Wound Business; however, there can be no assurances that it is probable these plans will be successfully implemented or that they will successfully mitigate these conditions and events. Therefore, these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As part of efforts to improve its financial condition, on February 27, 2023, the Company reached an agreement to return the assets and liabilities of CartiHeal (2009) Ltd. (“CartiHeal”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to its former securityholders. The deconsolidation of CartiHeal relieved deferred consideration liabilities and milestone obligations related to the acquisition of CartiHeal. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures for further information regarding the acquisition and subsequent deconsolidation of CartiHeal. In addition, the Company announced a restructuring plan in December 2022 to align the Company’s organizational and management cost structure to improve profitability and cash flow. Refer to Note 9. Restructuring costs for further information.
Recent accounting pronouncements	Recent accounting pronouncements The Company is an accelerated public company filer. Therefore, required effective dates for adopting new or revised accounting standards are generally earlier than when emerging growth companies are required to adopt.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Acquisitions and divestitures

Wound Business

The Company assesses its businesses and products in order to calibrate its strategic focus, enhance liquidity, prioritize investments and allocate capital to its core business units. As a result of this assessment, the Company has committed to a plan to divest certain assets within its Wound Business, specifically those attributable to TheraSkin and Theragenesis (the “Wound Business” or the “Disposal Group”).

The Company has classified the identifiable net assets of the Disposal Group as held for sale. Assets and liabilities determined to be part of the Disposal Group have been recorded as single amounts within the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, which is expected to occur within one year. The Company has ceased the depreciation and amortization attributable to assets classified as held for sale. Assets and liabilities held for sale are reviewed each reporting period to determine whether existing carrying values are fully recoverable in comparison to estimated fair values less costs to sell.

The Company evaluated the Wound Business for impairment during the first quarter of 2023. The Company recorded a $78,615 ($63,337 after tax) impairment as a result of this evaluation to reduce the intangible assets of the Wound Business to reflect their respective fair values less any costs to sell. The fair value of intangibles of the Wound Business was determined based on the consideration offered for the Wound Business.

The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of the Wound Business that were classified as held for sale were as follows:


	April 1, 2023
Carrying amounts of assets classified as held for sale
Accounts receivable, net of allowance of $898	$	4,114
Inventory	1,481
Property and equipment, net	443
Intangible assets	31,835
Total assets held for sale	$	37,873

Carrying amounts of liabilities classified as held for sale
Accounts payable	$	1,285
Accrued liabilities	588
Total liabilities held for sale	$	1,873

CartiHeal (2009) Ltd

On July 12, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the remaining shares in CartiHeal, a privately held company headquartered in Israel and the developer of the proprietary Agili-C implant for the treatment of joint surface lesions in traumatic and osteoarthritic joints. The Company previously held an equity interest in CartiHeal’s fully diluted shares with a carrying value of $15,768 and $16,771 as of July 12, 2022 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Net equity losses associated with CartiHeal for the three months ended April 2, 2022 totaled $401, which was included in discontinued operations, net on the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

The Company acquired CartiHeal (the “CartiHeal Acquisition”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $315,000 and an additional $135,000, payable after closing upon the achievement of a certain sales milestone (“Sales Milestone”, or “CartiHeal Contingent Consideration”). The Company paid $100,000 of the aggregate purchase price upon closing consisting of a $50,000 deposit held in trust and $50,000 from a financing arrangement (Refer to Note 4. Financial instruments for further information regarding financing arrangements). The Company also paid approximately $8,622 of CartiHeal’s transaction-related fees and expenses and deferred $215,000 (“Deferred Amount”) of the aggregate purchase price otherwise due at closing.

The Deferred Amount was to be paid in five tranches commencing in 2023 and ending no later than 2027 as follows:

•$50,000 due upon the earliest to occur — the publication in a peer-reviewed orthopedic journal of an article that presents the results of the pivotal clinical trial (“First Paper Milestone”) or July 1, 2023;

•$50,000 due upon the earliest to occur — the implantation of Agili-C devices in 100 patients in the United States or September 1, 2023;

•$25,000 due upon the earliest to occur — the publication in a peer-reviewed orthopedic journal of an article that presents any new or additional clinical data subsequent to the First Paper Milestone with respect to Agili-C (“Second Paper Milestone”) or January 1, 2025;

•$25,000 due upon the earliest to occur — the publication in a peer-reviewed orthopedic journal of an article that presents any new or additional clinical data subsequent to the First and Second Paper Milestone with respect to Agili-C or January 1, 2026; and

•$65,000 due upon the earliest to occur — obtaining a U.S. Category 1 Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) code from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) for Agili-C or January 1, 2027.

Pursuant to the CartiHeal Amendment (as defined below), the Company owed interest on each tranche of the Deferred Amount at a rate of 8.0% annually, until such tranche is paid. The Sales Milestone was payable upon the achievement of $75,000 in trailing twelve month sales pursuant to the CartiHeal Amendment.

The Company had entered into an Option and Equity Purchase Agreement with CartiHeal (“Option Agreement”) in January 2020 and a subsequent amendment in June 2022 (“CartiHeal Amendment”). The Option Agreement provided the Company with an exclusive option to acquire 100% of CartiHeal’s shares (“Call Option”), and provided CartiHeal with a put option that would require the Company to purchase 100% of CartiHeal’s shares under certain conditions. In August 2021, CartiHeal achieved pivotal clinical trial success, as defined in the Option Agreement, for the Agili-C implant. In order to preserve the Company’s Call Option, in accordance with the Option Agreement and upon approval of the Company’s Board of Directors (“BOD”), the Company deposited $50,000 into escrow in August 2021.

The First Paper Milestone under the Option Agreement occurred on February 13, 2023, which obligated the Company to make the first $50,000 payment, plus applicable interest, under the Option Agreement. On February 27, 2023, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Elron Ventures Ltd. (“Elron” and together with the Company, the “Parties”) as representative of CartiHeal’s selling securityholders under the Option Agreement collectively, the “Former Securityholders”). Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Elron, on behalf of the Former Securityholders, agreed to forbear from initiating any legal action or proceedings relating to non-payment of any obligations arising under the Option Agreement during a period of 30 calendar days (the “Interim Period”) in exchange for (i) a one-time non-refundable amount of $10,000 and (ii) a one-time non-refundable payment of $150 to Elron to be used in accordance with the expense fund provisions of the Option Agreement. The Interim Period expired on March 29, 2023 and the Company did not exercise its right to extend the Interim Period. In addition, the Parties mutually released any further claims under the Option Agreement and related transaction documents, including without limitation a release by the Former Securityholders of any rights to enforce the provisions of the Option Agreement or make further monetary claims against the Company and/or its respective affiliates and representatives.

The Company transferred 100% of its shares in CartiHeal to a trustee (the “Trustee”) for the benefit of the Former Securityholders pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. The Company had no ownership interest and no voting rights during the Interim Period. Accordingly, the Company concluded that upon execution of the Settlement Agreement, the Company ceased to control CartiHeal for accounting purposes, and therefore, deconsolidated CartiHeal effective February 27, 2023. CartiHeal was part of the Company’s international reporting segment. The Company treated the deconsolidation of CartiHeal as a discontinued operation. The loss upon disposal was $60,639 and was recorded within discontinued operations, net within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The loss on disposal is comprised of the book value of CartiHeal’s net assets at the time of disposal, goodwill attributable to CartiHeal and the previously discussed non-refundable payments made to Elron. The Company allowed the Interim Period to expire on March 29, 2023 as the Company was not able to find a financing solution to fund the payment obligations under the Option and Equity Purchase Agreement on terms the Company believed to be favorable to it and its shareholders.

The fair value of consideration for the CartiHeal Acquisition was comprised of the following:


Cash consideration	$	100,000
Transaction related costs	8,622
Subtotal of cash at closing	108,622
Deferred Amount	183,400
Sales Milestone	61,901
Fair value of previously held equity interest(a)	39,477
Total consideration	$	393,400

The Company accounted for the CartiHeal Acquisition using the acquisition method of accounting whereby the total purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on respective fair values. The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:


Fair value of consideration	$	393,400
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	3,781
Inventory	642
Prepaid and other current assets	552
Property and equipment	259
Intangibles	410,200
Investment and other assets	727
Accounts payable	(18)
Accrued liabilities	(459)
Other current liabilities	(171)
Deferred income taxes	(79,863)
Other liabilities	(2,544)
Net assets acquired	333,106
Resulting goodwill	$	60,294

Nearly 100% of the goodwill represents estimated future economic benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized and is attributable to expected revenue growth in new markets. The goodwill was not deductible for tax purposes and $55,295 and $4,999 was allocated to the U.S. and International reporting units, respectively.

CartiHeal’s intangibles consisted of the following:


	Useful Life	Fair Value
Intellectual Property - US Segment	20 years	$	351,500
Intellectual Property - International Segment	8 years	58,700
		$	410,200

The estimated fair value of the acquired CartiHeal intangibles was determined using an income approach, a valuation technique that estimates the fair value of an asset based on market participant expectations of the cash flows that an asset would generate over its remaining useful life. The determination of the useful lives was based upon consideration of market participant assumptions and transaction specific factors.

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]

Restructuring costs

Restructuring costs are not allocated to the Company’s reportable segments as they are not part of the segment performance measures regularly reviewed by management. These charges are included in restructuring costs in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Liabilities associated from restructuring costs are recorded in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company announced a restructuring plan in December 2022 (the “2022 Restructuring Plan”) that is intended to align the Company’s organizational and management cost structure to improve profitability and cash flow. The Company expects to incur $4,000 to $5,000 of pre-tax costs under the 2022 Restructuring Plan primarily consisting of employee severance and additional expenses for third-party and other related costs. Pre-tax charges recognized during the three months ended April 1, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 totaled $262 and $4,581, respectively.

The Company adopted restructuring plans for businesses acquired to reduce headcount, reorganize management structure and consolidate certain facilities during the second half of 2021 (the “2021 Acquisition Restructuring Plan”) and during the first quarter of 2022 (the “2022 Acquisition Restructuring Plan”). The Company planned total pre-tax charges for the 2021 Acquisition Restructuring Plan and 2022 Acquisition Restructuring Plan are $3,500 and $2,300, respectively. There was nominal activity related to the 2021 Acquisition Restructuring Plan during the three months ended April 1, 2023 and $377, $719 and $2,487 recognized during the three months ended April 2, 2022, and the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The 2021 Acquisition Restructuring Plan is essentially completed. Costs incurred attributable to the 2022 Acquisition Restructuring Plan totaled $84, $200 and $1,479 during the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, and the year ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

The Company’s restructuring charges and payments for plans related to businesses recently acquired comprised of the following:


	Employee severance and temporary labor costs		Other charges		Total

Income taxes	3 Months Ended
Income taxes	Apr. 01, 2023
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income taxes	Income taxes The tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company's annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that arise during the period. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of its annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, the Company makes a cumulative adjustment in such period. The quarterly tax provision, and estimate of the Company's annual effective tax rate, are subject to variation due to several factors, including variability in pre-tax income (or loss), the mix of jurisdictions to which such income relates, changes in how the Company conducts business, and tax law developments. For the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, the Company's effective tax rate was 0.1% and 26.3%, respectively. The decrease for the three months ended April 1, 2023 was primarily due to changes in our forecasted effective rate and a net increase in reserve for uncertain tax positions. The change in the forecasted effective rate for the three months ended April 1, 2023 compared to three months ended April 2, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance applied to our net deferred tax assets. Tax Receivable Agreement The Company expects to obtain an increase in the share of the tax basis of the assets of BV LLC when LLC Interests are redeemed or exchanged by the Continuing LLC Owner and other qualifying transactions. This increase in tax basis may have the effect of reducing the amounts that the Company would otherwise pay in the future to various tax authorities. The increase in tax basis may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. On February 16, 2021, the Company entered into a tax receivable agreement (“TRA”) with the Continuing LLC Owner that provides for the payment by the Company to the Continuing LLC Owner of 85% of the amount of tax benefits, if any, that the Company actually realizes as a result of (i) increases in the tax basis of assets of BV LLC resulting from any redemptions or exchanges of LLC Interests or any prior sales of interests in BV LLC; and (ii) certain other tax benefits related to our making payments under the TRA. The Company will maintain a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets related to the tax attributes generated as a result of redemptions of LLC Interests or exchanges described above until it is determined that the benefits are more-likely-than-not to be realized. As of April 1, 2023, the Continuing LLC Owner had not exchanged LLC Interests for shares of Class A common stock and therefore the Company had not recorded any liabilities under the TRA.

- Definition

Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Fair value measurements

Fair value measurementsThe process for determining fair value has not changed from that described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

There were no assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and there were no liabilities valued at fair value using Level 1 inputs. The following table provides information for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs:


	April 1, 2023		December 31, 2022
	Total		Level 3		Total		Level 3
Liabilities:
Deferred Amount - Current(a)	$	—	$	—	$	117,615	$	117,615
Deferred Amount - Long Term(a)	—		—		79,269		79,269

Total liabilities:	$	17,718	$	17,718	$	281,566	$	281,566

Deferred Amount

The Deferred Amount that resulted from the CartiHeal Acquisition was calculated based on the total amount payable on each due date for the five payment tranches including applicable interest. As previously discussed, the Company reached a settlement Agreement with the Former Securityholders. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company was relieved of the obligations under the Deferred Amount. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures and Note 14. Discontinued operations for further details regarding the deconsolidation of CartiHeal.

Contingent consideration

The Company initially values contingent consideration related to business combinations using a probability-weighted calculation of potential payment scenarios discounted at rates reflective of the risks associated with the expected future cash flows for certain milestones. For other milestones, the Company used a variation of the income approach where revenue was simulated in a risk-neutral framework using Geometric Brownian Motion, a stock price behavior model.

Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of contingent consideration include projected financial information, market data and the probability and timing of achieving the specific targets. After the initial valuation, the Company generally uses its best estimate to measure contingent consideration at each subsequent reporting period using unobservable Level 3 inputs. As previously discussed, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the Former Securityholders and was relieved of the CartiHeal Contingent Consideration obligations. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures and Note 14. Discontinued operations for further details regarding the deconsolidation of CartiHeal.

Unobservable inputs

A summary of unobservable Level 3 inputs utilized for the above liabilities are as follows:

Valuation Technique

Unobservable inputs

Range

Bioness contingent consideration

Discounted cash flow

Payment discount rate

6.4% - 6.8%

Payment period

2024 - 2025

Significant changes in these assumptions could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value. The contingent consideration reported in the table above resulted from the acquisition of Bioness on March 30, 2021. Contingent consideration is adjusted quarterly based upon the passage of time or the anticipated success or failure of achieving certain milestones. Changes in contingent consideration related to Bioness totaled $287 and $269 for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively, and were recorded as the change in fair value of contingent consideration within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in contingent consideration related to the CartiHeal Acquisition totaled $1,710 for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and is reported within discontinued operations, net within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company was relieved of CartiHeal related obligations. The Company deconsolidated the remaining $68,961 contingent consideration liability as a result. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures for further details regarding the deconsolidation of CartiHeal.

Equity [Abstract]

Stockholders’ equity

Initial Public Offering

On February 16, 2021, the Company closed an IPO of 9,200,000 shares of Class A common stock at a public offering price of $13.00 per share, which includes 1,200,000 shares issued pursuant to the underwriters' over-allotment option. In connection with the IPO, the Company completed the following transactions (“Transactions”).

•Amended and restated the limited liability company agreement of BV LLC (“BV LLC Agreement”), to, among other things, (i) provide for a new single class of common membership interests in BV LLC (“LLC Interests”); (ii) exchange all of the existing membership interests in BV LLC (“Original BV LLC Owners”) for new LLC Interests; and (iii) appoint Bioventus Inc. as the sole managing member of BV LLC.

•Amended and restated the Bioventus Inc. certificate of incorporation to, among other things, (i) provide for an increase in the authorized shares of Class A common stock; (ii) provide for Class B common stock with voting rights but no economic interest, which shares were issued to the Original BV LLC Owners on a one-for-one basis with the number of LLC Interests they owned; and (iii) provide for undesignated preferred stock.

•Acquired, by merger, ten entities that were Original BV LLC Owners (“Former LLC Owners”), for which the Company issued 31,838,589 shares of Class A common stock as merger consideration (“IPO Mergers”). The only assets held by the Former LLC Owners were 31,838,589 LLC Interests and a corresponding number of shares of Class B common stock. Upon consummation of the IPO Mergers, the 31,838,589 shares of Class B common stock were canceled, and the Company recognized the 31,838,589 LLC Interests at carrying value, as the IPO Mergers are considered to be a recapitalization transaction.

Amendment and restatement of certificate of incorporation

On February 16, 2021, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation to, among other things, provide for: (i) the authorization of 250,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share; (ii) the authorization of 50,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share; (iii) the authorization of 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock that may be issued from time to time by the BOD in one or more series; and (iv) the establishment of a classified BOD, divided into three classes, each of whose members will serve for staggered three-year terms.

Holders of Class A and Class B common stock are entitled to one vote per share and, except as otherwise required, will vote together as a single class on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Holders of Class B common stock are not entitled to receive dividends and will not be entitled to receive any distributions upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company. Shares of Class B common stock may only be issued to the extent necessary to maintain the one-to-one ratio between the number of LLC Interests and the number of shares of Class B common stock held by the Smith & Nephew, Inc. (the “Continuing LLC Owner”). Shares of Class B common stock are transferable only together with an equal number of LLC Interests. Shares of Class B common stock will be canceled on a one-for-one basis upon the redemption or exchange of any outstanding LLC Interests.

The Company must, at all times, maintain a one-to-one ratio between the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock and the number of LLC Interests owned by the Company.

BV LLC recapitalization

The BV LLC Agreement provides that holders of LLC Interests may, from time to time, require the Company to redeem all or a portion of their LLC Interests for newly-issued shares of Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Company may elect to settle any such redemption in shares of Class A common stock or in cash.

The amendment also requires that the Company, at all times, maintain (i) a one-to-one ratio between the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock and the number of LLC Interests owned by the Company and (ii) a one-to-one ratio between the number of shares of Class B common stock owned by the Continuing LLC Owner and the number of LLC Interests owned by the Continuing LLC Owner.

Noncontrolling interest

In connection with any redemption, the Company will receive a corresponding number of LLC Interests, increasing its ownership interest in BV LLC. Future redemptions of LLC Interests will result in a change in ownership and reduce the amount recorded as noncontrolling interest and increase additional paid-in capital. There were no redemptions during the three months ended April 1, 2023 or during the year ended December 31, 2022. The following table summarizes the ownership interest in BV LLC as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (number of units in thousands):


	April 1, 2023			December 31, 2022
	LLC Interests	Ownership %		LLC Interests	Ownership %
Number of LLC Interests owned
Bioventus Inc.	62,508	79.8	%	62,063	79.7	%
Continuing LLC Owner	15,787	20.2	%	15,787	20.3	%
Total	78,295	100.0	%	77,850	100.0	%

- Definition

The entire disclosure for shareholders' equity comprised of portions attributable to the parent entity and noncontrolling interest, including other comprehensive income. Includes, but is not limited to, balances of common stock, preferred stock, additional paid-in capital, other capital and retained earnings, accumulated balance for each classification of other comprehensive income and amount of comprehensive income.

	$	404,265	$	385,010

On December 6, 2019, the Company entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the “2019 Credit Agreement”) that was comprised of a $200,000 term loan (“Original Term Loan”) and a $50,000 revolving facility (the “Revolver”). The Company amended the 2019 Credit Agreement on October 29, 2021 in connection with the Misonix Acquisition in which the Company prepaid $80,000 on the Original Term Loan. The 2019 Credit Agreement, as amended, subsequent to the prepayment, was comprised of a $360,750 term loan (“Term Loan”) and the Revolver.

On July 11, 2022, the Company further amended the 2019 Credit Agreement, as amended on October 29, 2021 (the “First Amended 2019 Credit Agreement”), in conjunction with the CartiHeal Acquisition. Pursuant to the First Amended 2019 Credit Agreement, an $80,000 term loan facility (the “July 2022 Term Loan” and, together with the Term Loan, the “Term Loan Facilities”) was extended to the Company to be used for: (i) the financing of the CartiHeal Acquisition; (ii) the payment of related fees and expenses; (iii) repayment of the draws made on the Revolver; and (iv) working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company, including without limitation for permitted acquisitions.

The Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants as of December 31, 2022. As a result, on March 31, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), the Company entered into another amendment to the 2019 Credit Agreement (collectively, with the October 2021 and July 2022 amendments, the “Amended 2019 Credit Agreement”) to, among other things, modify certain financial covenants, waive the noncompliance at December 31, 2022, and to modify interest rates applicable to borrowings under the 2019 Credit Agreement.

The Amended 2019 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including those related to financial reporting and notification, restrictions on the declaration or payment of certain distributions on or in respect of Bioventus LLC’s equity interests, restrictions on acquisitions, investments and certain other payments, limitations on the incurrence of new indebtedness, limitations on transfers, sales and other dispositions of assets of Bioventus LLC and its subsidiaries, as well as limitations on making changes to the business and organizational documents of Bioventus LLC and its subsidiaries. Financial covenant requirements include a maximum debt leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. In addition, during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending upon the satisfaction of certain conditions occurring not prior to the delivery of financial statements of the Company for the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2024, the Company will be subject to certain additional requirements and covenants, including a requirement to maintain Liquidity (as defined in the Amended 2019 Credit Agreement) of not less than $10,000 as of the end of each calendar month during such period. The Term Loan Facilities will mature on October 29, 2026. The Revolver will mature on October 29, 2025.

The Amended 2019 Credit Agreement had deferred financing costs of $3,661, of which $1,617 were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss and $2,044 were capitalized on the consolidated condensed balance sheets. There was no loss on debt refinancing and modification as a result of the March 2023 amendment.

As of April 1, 2023, $416,585 was outstanding on the Term Loan Facilities, net of original issue discount of $2,876 and deferred financing costs of $1,251. Capitalized deferred fees are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Term Loan Facilities, which approximates the effective interest method. The Company recorded $223 and $203 for deferred cost amortization in interest expense for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively. The Company had $29,000 and no outstanding borrowings on its Revolver as of April 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The estimated fair value of the Term Loan Facilities was $414,402 as of April 1, 2023. The fair value of these obligations was determined based on the midpoint of the Bloomberg Valuation. This is classified as a Level 2 instruments within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company historically entered into interest rate swap agreements to limit its exposure to changes in the variable interest rate on its long-term debt. The Company had one non-designated interest rate swap agreement that was terminated on October 28, 2022. The Company received $7,738 upon the swap’s termination. The swap was carried at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair value recorded as interest income or expense within the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Net interest income of $3,924 was recorded related to the change in fair value of the interest rate swap for the three months ended April 2, 2022.

Compensation And Employee Benefit Plans [Abstract]

Equity-based compensation

The Company operates an equity-based compensation plan (the “2021 Plan”), which allows for the issuance of stock options (incentive and nonqualified), restricted stock, dividend equivalents, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), other stock-based awards, and cash awards (collectively, “Awards”). As of April 1, 2023, 11,278,656 shares of Class A common stock were authorized to be awarded and 2,762,266 shares were available for Awards.

Equity-based compensation expense for Awards granted under the 2021 Plan for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, totaled $1,718 and $4,731, respectively. The expense is primarily included in selling, general and administrative expense with a nominal amount in research and development expense on the consolidated condensed statements of operations and comprehensive loss based upon the department of the employee. There were $430 and $1,225 income tax benefit related to this expense for the three months ended April 1, 2023 and April 2, 2022, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, the Company granted time-based RSUs which vest at various dates through January 3, 2027. RSU compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period, which is typically between 1 and 4 years. Unamortized compensation expense related to the RSUs totaled $2,265 at April 1, 2023, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.50 years. A summary of the RSU award activity for the three months ended April 1, 2023 is as follows (number of units in thousands):


	Number of units	Weighted-average grant-date fair value per unit
Unvested at December 31, 2022	1,189	$	11.96
Granted	39	2.78
Vested	(223)	12.77
Forfeited or canceled	(100)	12.66
Unvested at April 1, 2023	905	$	11.29

Stock Options

During the three months ended April 1, 2023, the Company granted time-based stock options which vest over 2 to 4 years following the date of grant and expire within 10 years. The fair value of time-based stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model, with such value recognized as expense over the service period, which is typically 2 to 4 years, net of actual forfeitures. A summary of the Company’s assumptions used in determining the fair value of the stock options granted during the three months ended April 1, 2023 is shown in the following table.


Risk-free interest rate	3.9%
Expected dividend yield	—	%
Expected stock price volatility	35.2%
Expected life of stock options (years)	6.25

The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the three months ended April 1, 2023 was $1.10 per share. The expected term of the options granted is estimated using the simplified method. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s peers’ common stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined based upon a constant U.S. Treasury security rate with a contractual life that approximates the expected term of the option. Unamortized compensation expense related to the options totaled $9,614 at April 1, 2023, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.78 years.

A summary of stock option activity is as follows for the three months ended April 1, 2023 (number of options in thousands):


	Number of options	Weighted-average exercise price		Weighted average remaining contractual term	Aggregate intrinsic value
Outstanding at December 31, 2022	8,910	$	11.65
Granted	22	2.61


Forfeited or canceled	(636)	12.61
Outstanding at April 1, 2023	8,296	11.56		7.44 years	$	—
Exercisable and vested at April 1, 2023	5,026	$	10.87	6.74 years	$	—

The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the market price of the Company’s Class A common stock for options that had exercise prices lower than $1.07 per share, the closing price of the Company’s Class A common stock on March 31, 2023.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company operates a non-qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), which provides for the issuance of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to eligible employees of the Company that elect to participate in the plan and purchase shares of Class A common stock through payroll deductions at a discounted price. As of April 1, 2023, the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the ESPP was 1,181,830. A total of 222,076 shares were issued and $128 of expense was recognized during the three months ended April 1, 2023. A total of 48,993 shares were issued and $158 of expense was recognized during the three months ended April 2, 2022.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization

The Company

Bioventus Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation for the purpose of facilitating an initial public offering and other related transactions in order to carry on the business of Bioventus LLC and its subsidiaries (“BV LLC”). Bioventus Inc. functions as a holding company with no direct operations, material assets or liabilities other than the equity interest in BV LLC. BV LLC is a limited liability company formed under the laws of the state of Delaware on November 23, 2011 and operates as a partnership. BV LLC commenced operations in May 2012.

On February 16, 2021, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”), which was conducted through what is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership C Corporation (“UP-C”) structure. The Company has majority interest, sole voting interest and controls the management of BV LLC. As a result, the Company consolidates the financial results of BV LLC and reports a noncontrolling interest representing the interest of BV LLC held by its continuing LLC owner.

The Company is focused on developing and commercializing clinically differentiated, cost efficient and minimally invasive treatments that engage and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. The Company is headquartered in Durham, North Carolina and has approximately 1,040 employees.

Interim periods

The Company reports quarterly interim periods on a 13-week basis within a standard calendar year. Each annual reporting period begins on January 1 and ends on December 31. Each quarter ends on the Saturday closest to calendar quarter-end, with the exception of the fourth quarter, which ends on December 31. The 13-week quarterly periods for fiscal year 2023 end on April 1, July 1 and September 30. Comparable periods for 2022 ended on April 2, July 2 and October 1. The fourth and first quarters may vary in length depending on the calendar year.

Unaudited interim financial information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“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, they do not include all information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, and the adjustments discussed in Note 1. Organization) considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. As such, the information included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company, but does not include all the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

Correction of immaterial misstatements

During the quarter ended April 1, 2023 and as part of the balance sheet review process, the Company identified misstatements in its calculation of the carrying amount of noncontrolling interest as it applies to the Company’s complex UP-C tax and ownership structure as prescribed in the amended and restated limited liability company agreement of BV LLC. Specifically, the Company failed to adjust the carrying amount of its noncontrolling interest to reflect changes in ownership interests relating to BV LLC. As a result, the previously issued consolidated financial statements reflect an understatement of noncontrolling interest and an overstatement of additional paid-in capital.

As a result of further research conducted, the Company discovered an additional error related to historical deferred income tax balances. The Company concluded that it had inappropriately calculated deferred income taxes by using an incorrect book basis in its investment of BV LLC during the Company’s IPO, which resulted in an overstatement of deferred tax liabilities, an understatement of noncontrolling interest and an understatement of additional paid-in capital.

The statements affected by these errors include the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of stockholders’ and members’ equity issued in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. There was no impact to any other financial statements for the periods presented. The Company concluded that these misstatements were not material, individually or in the aggregate, as evaluated under the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Bulletin No. 99, Materiality; No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements; and Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 250-10, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. However, because of the significance of these items, and to facilitate comparison among periods, the Company has decided to revise its previously issued consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis. The Company will correct its prior period presentation for this error in its future 2023 quarterly financial statements included in its Forms 10-Q and 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023. The adjustments did not have an impact on revenues, total assets or cash flows.

The following are selected line items from our aforementioned impacted financial statements illustrating the effect of the error corrections thereon:


Consolidated Balance Sheets — December 31, 2022	As Previously Reported		Adjustments		As Adjusted
Deferred income taxes (b)(d)	$	74,138	$	(71,890)	$	2,248

Total stockholders’ equity	533,789		73,867		607,656

Going concern

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, which presumes that the Company’s liquidation is not imminent; however, based on the Company’s current financial position and liquidity sources, including current cash balances, and forecasted future cash flows, the Company is at risk of violating certain of its financial covenants under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement, dated December 6, 2019 (as amended on October 29, 2021, July 11, 2022 and March 31, 2023).

If mitigating steps are not taken or are not successful, the Company is at substantial risk of failing its covenants in 2024. A breach of a financial covenant under the Credit and Guaranty Agreement could accelerate repayment of our obligations under the agreement. Refer to Note 4. Financial instruments for further discussion concerning the Company’s long-term debt obligations.

The Company is actively pursuing plans to mitigate these conditions and events, such as considering various additional cost cutting measures, and exploring additional divestiture opportunities such as the recently announced plan to divest certain assets within its Wound Business; however, there can be no assurances that it is probable these plans will be successfully implemented or that they will successfully mitigate these conditions and events. Therefore, these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As part of efforts to improve its financial condition, on February 27, 2023, the Company reached an agreement to return the assets and liabilities of CartiHeal (2009) Ltd. (“CartiHeal”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, to its former securityholders. The deconsolidation of CartiHeal relieved deferred consideration liabilities and milestone obligations related to the acquisition of CartiHeal. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures for further information regarding the acquisition and subsequent deconsolidation of CartiHeal. In addition, the Company announced a restructuring plan in December 2022 to align the Company’s organizational and management cost structure to improve profitability and cash flow. Refer to Note 9.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Balance sheet information

Accounts receivable, net

Accounts receivable, net are amounts billed and currently due from customers. The Company records the amounts due net of allowance for credit losses. Collection of the consideration that the Company expects to receive typically occurs within 30 to 90 days of billing. The Company applies the practical expedient for contracts with payment terms of one year or less which does not consider the effects of the time value of money. Occasionally, the Company enters into payment agreements with patients that allow payment terms beyond one year. In those cases, the financing component is not deemed significant to the contract.

Accounts receivable, net of allowances, consisted of the following as of:


	April 1, 2023		December 31, 2022
Accounts receivable(a)	$	125,945	$	143,317
Less: Allowance for credit losses(b)	(7,401)		(7,022)
	$	118,544	$	136,295

(a)Other receivables of $350 attributable to CartiHeal was reclassified to current assets attributable to discontinued operations within the December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheets. Accounts receivable of $5,012 was reclassified into assets held for sale within the April 1, 2023 consolidated condensed balance sheets. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures and Note 14. Discontinued operations for further details regarding assets held for sale and the deconsolidation of CartiHeal.

(b)Allowance for credit losses of $898 was reclassified to assets held for sale within the April 1, 2023 consolidated condensed balance sheets. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures for further details regarding assets held for sale.

Due to the short-term nature of the Company’s receivables, the estimate of expected credit losses is based on aging of the account receivable balances. The allowance is adjusted on a specific identification basis for certain accounts as well as pooling of accounts with similar characteristics. The Company has a diverse customer base with no single customer representing ten percent or more of sales. The Company has one customer representing approximately 11.8% of the accounts receivable balance as of April 1, 2023. Historically, the Company’s reserves have been adequate to cover credit losses.

Changes in credit losses were as follows:

Acquisitions and divestitures for further details regarding businesses held for sale.

Estimated amortization expense for intangibles subsequent to reclassifications and impairment for the remainder of 2023 and for the years ended December 31, 2024 through 2027 is expected to be $22,041, $26,347, $22,874, $20,030 and $19,652, respectively.

Goodwill

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. The Company assesses goodwill impairment by applying a quantitative impairment analysis comparing the carrying value of the Company’s reporting units to their respective fair values. A goodwill impairment exists if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value.

The Company has two reporting units and assesses impairment based upon qualitative factors and if necessary, quantitative factors. A reporting unit's fair value is determined using the income approach and discounted cash flow models by utilizing Level 3 inputs and assumptions such as future cash flows, discount rates, long-term growth rates, market value and income tax considerations. Specifically, the value of each reporting unit is determined on a stand-alone basis from the perspective of a market participant and represents the price estimated to be received in a sale of the reporting unit in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company then reconciles the values of all reporting units to the market capitalization of the Company.

The Company’s goodwill resides within the International segment, of which $6,297 related to CartiHeal and was reclassified to long-term assets attributable to discontinued operations within the December 31, 2022 consolidated balance sheets. The amount was recorded in discontinued operations, net of tax on the consolidated condensed statements of operations for the three months ended April 1, 2023 as a result of CartiHeal’s deconsolidation. Refer to Note 3. Acquisitions and divestitures and Note 14. Discontinued operations for further details concerning the deconsolidation of CartiHeal.

On November 8, 2022, due to a significant decline in the Company’s Class A common stock price, circumstances became evident that a possible goodwill impairment existed as of the third quarter 2022 balance sheet date. The Company concluded that the carrying value of the U.S. reporting unit exceeded its fair value and recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $189,197 during the year ended December 31, 2022. There were no accumulated impairment losses prior to the year ended December 31, 2022.

Governmental and legal contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company periodically becomes involved in various claims and lawsuits, and governmental proceedings and investigations that are incidental to its business. The Company accrues a liability when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When a material loss contingency is reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record a liability, but instead discloses the nature and amount of the claim, and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, if such an estimate can be made. Legal fees are expensed as incurred. With respect to governmental proceedings and investigations, like other companies in the industry, the Company is subject to extensive regulation by national, state and local governmental agencies in the United States and in other jurisdictions in which the Company and its affiliates operate. As a result, interaction with governmental agencies is ongoing. The Company’s standard practice is to cooperate with regulators and investigators in responding to inquiries.

The Company is presently unable to predict the duration, scope, or result of these matters. As such, the Company is presently unable to develop a reasonable estimate of a possible loss or range of losses, if any, related to these matters. While the Company intends to defend these matters vigorously, the outcome of such litigation or any other litigation is necessarily uncertain, is not within the Company’s complete control and might not be known for extended periods of time. In the opinion of management, the outcome of any existing claims and legal or regulatory proceedings, other than the specific matters described below, if decided adversely, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Bioventus shareholder litigation

On January 12, 2023, the Company and certain of its current and former directors and officers were named as defendants in a putative class action lawsuit filed in the Middle District of North Carolina, Ciarciello v. Bioventus, Inc., No. 1:23– CV – 00032-CCE-JEP (M.D.N.C. 2023). The complaint asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act and generally alleges that the Company failed to disclose certain information regarding rebate practices, its business and financial prospects, and the sufficiency of internal controls regarding financial reporting. The complaint seeks damages in an unspecified amount. On April 12, 2023, the Court appointed Wayne County Employees’ Retirement System as lead plaintiff. The lead plaintiff’s amended consolidated complaint is due to be filed with the Court on June 12, 2023. Defendants’ motion to dismiss the amended consolidated complaint is due on July 17, 2023. The Company believes the claims alleged lack merit and intends to defend itself vigorously. The outcome of the litigation is not presently determinable, and any loss is neither probable nor reasonably estimable.

Bioness patent litigation

On June 15, 2022, the Company, through its subsidiary Bioness, filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Aretech, LLC (“Aretech”) alleging infringement by Aretech of various patents related the Bioness’ Vector Gait and Safety Support System®. On August 8, 2022, Aretech filed an answer to the lawsuit denying infringement and asserting various affirmative defenses and counterclaims to the Bioness complaint. Bioness filed a motion to dismiss the defendant’s counterclaims on September 28, 2022. In response to Bioness’ motion to dismiss the counterclaims, on October 19, 2022, Aretech filed an amended answer and counterclaims. On November 16, 2022, Bioness filed a partial motion to dismiss certain of the amended counterclaims. On January 23, 2023, the court granted-in-part Bioness’ motion dismissing Aretech’s antitrust and inventorship-related counterclaims, but allowed certain of Aretech’s counterclaims to proceed. On March 23, 2023, the parties entered into a settlement and license agreement that resolved all claims in the litigation. The agreement also provides cross licenses to the parties for certain of their respective patents relevant to the claims asserted in the litigation.

Misonix stockholder

On September 15, 2021, a purported stockholder of Misonix filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Stein v. Misonix, Inc., et al., Case No. 2:21-cv-05127 (E.D.N.Y.) (the “Stein Complaint”). The Stein Complaint named Misonix and members of its board of directors as defendants. The Stein Complaint was dismissed on April 6, 2022. On September 16, 2021, a purported stockholder of Misonix filed an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Ciccotelli v. Misonix, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:21-cv-07773 (S.D.N.Y.) (the “Ciccotelli Complaint”) against Misonix, members of its board of directors, the Company, and its subsidiaries, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II, as defendants. Plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the Ciccotelli Complaint on November 10, 2021. On October 12, 2021, another purported stockholder of Misonix filed an action in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, captioned Rubin v. Misonix, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:21-cv-05672 (S.D.N.Y.) (the “Rubin Complaint”) and on October 15, 2021, another purported stockholder of Misonix filed an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, captioned Taylor v. Misonix, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:21-cv-08513 (S.D.N.Y.) (the “Taylor Complaint”). The Rubin Complaint and the Taylor Complaint name Misonix and members of its board of directors as defendants. Plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed the Rubin and Taylor Complaints on January 21, 2022 and February 18, 2022, respectively.

The complaints asserted claims under Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 14a-9, challenging the adequacy of disclosures in the proxy statement/prospectus filed with the SEC on September 8, 2021 or the Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on September 24, 2021, regarding Misonix and/or Bioventus’ projections and J.P. Morgan’s financial analysis. The complaints had sought, among other relief, (i) injunctive relief preventing the parties from proceeding with the merger; (ii) rescission in the event that the merger is consummated; and (iii) an award of costs, including attorneys’ and experts’ fees.

Misonix former distributor

On March 23, 2017, Misonix’s former distributor in China, Cicel (Beijing) Science & Technology Co., Ltd., filed a lawsuit against Misonix and certain of its officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The complaint alleged that Misonix improperly terminated its contract with the former distributor. The complaint sought various remedies, including compensatory and punitive damages, specific performance and preliminary and post judgment injunctive relief, and asserted various causes of action, including breach of contract, unfair competition, tortious interference with contract, fraudulent inducement, and conversion. On October 7, 2017, the court granted Misonix’s motion to dismiss each of the tort claims asserted against Misonix, and also granted the individual defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims asserted against them. On January 23, 2020, the court granted Cicel’s motion to amend its complaint, to include claims for alleged defamation and theft of trade secrets in addition to the breach of contract claim. Discovery in the matter ended on August 5, 2021. On January 20, 2022, the court granted Misonix’s summary judgment motion on Cicel’s breach of contract and defamation claims. Cicel’s motion for reconsideration of the court’s summary judgment ruling in Misonix’s favor was dismissed by the Court on April 29, 2022. On July 18, 2022, Cicel voluntarily dismissed the remaining claim for trade secret theft and later filed an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Company believes that it has various legal and factual defenses to these claims and intends to vigorously defend the appeal of the lower court’s summary judgment rulings in its favor.

Bioness shareholder

Prior to closing the Bioness Acquisition, Bioness had been named as a defendant in a lawsuit, for which the Company is indemnified under the indemnification provisions contained in the Bioness Merger Agreement. The case relates to an action brought in February 2021 in the Delaware State Court of Chancery by a former minority shareholder and director of Bioness, seeking a temporary restraining order contesting the acquisition of Bioness. While the complaint to block the Bioness acquisition was dismissed by the court, a separate action was brought against the Company under the indemnification provisions of the Bioness Certificate of Incorporation to recover attorney fees and other expenses totaling approximately $3,000 incurred by the director and shareholder in connection with the matter.

On August 19, 2021, the court issued a ruling granting, in part, plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment, awarding plaintiff attorney’s fees and related expenses incurred in connection with performance of the plaintiff’s directorial duties, and denying fees and expenses incurred in a non-director capacity. In its ruling, the court’s order also directed the parties to agree upon a process that will govern the payment of and challenges to plaintiff’s payment requests and required Bioness to pay 50% of the demanded amount into escrow if more than 50% of the total invoiced amount was in dispute. Pursuant to the court’s order, Bioness paid approximately $1,300 into escrow. On November 1, 2022, at a hearing before Delaware State Court of Chancery, the court ruled in favor of the former Bioness director awarding attorney’s fees in connection with the underlying pre-merger litigation and the advancement action in the amounts claimed, less approximately $50. On December 23, 2022, Bioness and the plaintiff entered into a settlement agreement resolving the matter for the aggregate sum of $2,500 payable to the plaintiff. The settlement was satisfied by releasing the $1,300 previously paid by Bioness and held in escrow and by an additional payment of $1,200. Pursuant to the indemnification obligations under the Bioness Merger Agreement, this subsequent payment was made on behalf of Bioness on December 28. 2022, by the selling majority shareholder under that agreement. The Company subsequently recovered the $1,300 paid into escrow from the selling Bioness shareholders pursuant an indemnification request under the Bioness Merger Agreement. An order dismissing the case was entered by the court on January 27, 2023.

On February 8, 2022, the above referenced minority shareholder of Bioness filed another action in the Delaware State Court of Chancery in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Bioness. This action names the former Bioness directors, the Alfred E. Mann Trust (Trust), which was the former majority shareholder of Bioness, the trustees of the Trust and Bioventus as defendants. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the individual directors, the Trust, and the trustees breached their fiduciary duty to the plaintiff in connection with their consideration and approval of the Company’s transaction. The complaint also alleges that the Company aided and abetted the other defendants in breaching their fiduciary duties to the plaintiff and that the Company breached the Merger Agreement by failing to pay the plaintiff its pro rata share of the merger consideration. The Company believes that it is indemnified under the indemnification provisions contained in the Bioness Merger Agreement for these claims. On July 20, 2022, the Company filed a motion to dismiss all claims made against it on various grounds, as did all the other named defendants in the suit. A hearing on Bioness’ and other the defendant’s motions was held before the Court of Chancery on January 19, 2023. The Company believes that there are various legal and factual defenses to the claims plaintiff made against us and intend to defend ourselves vigorously. On April 27, 2023, the Court issued an order which, among other things, dismissed Bioventus from the case.
