In other recent news, Orthofix International N.V. has demonstrated robust growth in the third quarter of 2024, with net sales reaching $196.6 million, marking a 7% year-over-year increase. The company attributes part of this success to an 18% growth in U.S. spine fixation sales. In addition, Orthofix has set ambitious financial targets for 2027, aiming for a 6% to 7% compound annual growth rate in net sales and mid-teens adjusted EBITDA margins.

These developments are part of the company's strategy for sustainable growth, which includes investing 8% to 9% of sales annually in research and development. Moreover, Orthofix completed a $275 million financing to optimize its capital structure. Notably, the company's projections for net sales in 2024 are between $795 million to $800 million, indicating up to 7.2% growth.

However, it's important to note that the company's guidance does not take into account potential impacts from hurricanes and IV shortages. Despite these potential challenges, Orthofix remains optimistic about its future, particularly with the strong performance across all spine franchises and the increasing demand for its 7D system in spine surgeries.
