As previously announced, on October 10, 2022, Orthofix Medical Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Orthofix”) and Orca Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orthofix (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with SeaSpine Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“SeaSpine”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into SeaSpine (the “Merger”), with SeaSpine continuing as the surviving company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orthofix following the transaction.

In connection with the Merger, Orthofix filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Form S-4 Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, filed November 8, 2022, as amended on November 22, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”) and a definitive joint proxy statement of Orthofix and SeaSpine that also constitutes a prospectus of Orthofix, dated November 23, 2022 (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), which Orthofix and SeaSpine commenced mailing to stockholders of Orthofix and SeaSpine on or about November 25, 2022. Set forth below are supplemental disclosures relating to the Merger.

SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURES

The following information supplements both the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with both the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which should be read in their entirety. All page references are to pages in the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and terms used below have the meanings set forth in the Registration Statement and the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus. Without admitting in any way that the disclosures below are material or otherwise required by law, Orthofix and SeaSpine make the following supplemental disclosures:

The following paragraph is added after the second bullet point on page 88:

The range of perpetuity growth rates and discount rates was estimated by Perella Weinberg utilizing its professional judgment and experiences, taking into account the SeaSpine Forecasts and Orthofix Forecasts as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally.

The third full paragraph on page 89 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

Perella Weinberg also performed an additional discounted cash flow analysis of the present value of the Synergies expected to result from the merger. The Synergy estimates were discounted to present value using a range of discount rates from 9.75% to 10.75% and a perpetuity growth rate of 3.0%. Perella Weinberg then calculated a range of implied present values per share of the combined company post-Merger taking into account: (i) Orthofix’s standalone discounted cash flow value as set forth above, plus (ii) either (A) SeaSpine’s standalone discounted cash flow value as set forth above or (B) SeaSpine’s standalone discounted cash flow value, utilizing the Orthofix discount rates of 9.75% to 10.75% rather than the SeaSpine discount rates of 10.50% to 11.50%, (iii) the present value of the Synergies expected to result from the merger, minus (iv) the Orthofix and SeaSpine managements’ estimates of the transaction-related expenses. The range of perpetuity growth rates and discount rates was estimated by Perella Weinberg utilizing its professional judgment and experiences, taking into account the SeaSpine Forecasts and Orthofix Forecasts as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. These analyses resulted in the following reference ranges of implied equity values per share:

The paragraph beginning on page 92 and continuing on page 93 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

Unless the context indicates otherwise, for purposes of the financial analyses described below, Piper Sandler calculated enterprise value (“EV”) for SeaSpine, Orthofix and each selected public company (defined as the relevant company’s common equity value, plus book value of preferred stock, plus fair value of contingent

consideration, plus debt, plus capital leases, less cash and cash equivalents, less investments in partnerships, and less short and long term marketable securities (“net debt”), plus, where applicable, book value of non-controlling interests), based on (a) the market value of the relevant company’s diluted common equity, using closing stock prices on October 7, 2022, (b) the relevant company’s net debt as of such company’s most recently reported quarter end, which in each case was as of June 30, 2022, and in the case of Orthofix, adjusted for financial leases, and (c) in the case of SeaSpine and Orthofix, implied per share values for each using diluted shares, calculated using the treasury stock method, of SeaSpine common stock and Orthofix common stock, respectively as of October 7, 2022 (the “SeaSpine Closing Price” and the “Orthofix Closing Price,” respectively) (of approximately 39.6 million and 21.4 million, respectively), and (ii) net debt of SeaSpine and Orthofix as of June 30, 2022 (of approximately $(41) million and $(40) million). Additionally, “gross profit” in the case of SeaSpine was adjusted to exclude technology amortization, non-cash stock based compensation expense and purchase accounting fair market value charges. Further, historical and projected financial data used in the analyses below were not adjusted to reflect any potential accounting adjustments to conform SeaSpine and Orthofix accounting policies.

The first full paragraph on page 101 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

Seaspine Standalone. Using a discounted cash flows analysis, Piper Sandler calculated an estimated range of theoretical enterprise values for SeaSpine based on the net present value of (i) projected unlevered after-tax free cash flows from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2031 (which reflected estimated NOL generation and usage over such period), discounted back to June 30, 2022, and (ii) a projected terminal value at December 31, 2031, calculated using a range of perpetuity growth rates ranging from 3.5% to 5.0%, selected by Piper Sandler based on its professional judgment, discounted back to June 30, 2022. The after-tax free cash flows for each year were calculated based on estimates provided to Piper Sandler by SeaSpine’s management, see the section entitled “— Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information.” For this standalone discounted cash flow analysis, Piper Sander assumed that SeaSpine will raise additional capital of $80 million through one or more equity offerings during 2022 and/or 2023 at an assumed price of $5.51 per share, the SeaSpine Closing Price in order to finance the business plan set forth in such estimates. Piper Sandler calculated the range of net present values for unlevered free cash flows for such periods, as well as the terminal value, based on a range of discount rates ranging from 10.5% to 12.5%, its estimation of SeaSpine’s weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), using the capital asset pricing model (“CAPM”), together with a size premium in order to derive a range of implied enterprise values for SeaSpine. Piper Sandler then derived a range of implied per share values for SeaSpine common stock using balance sheet data and diluted share information described above, which reference range was $2.93-$6.52, as compared to the Implied Per-Share Merger Consideration of $7.64.

The second full paragraph on page 101 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

Orthofix Standalone. Using a discounted cash flows analysis, Piper Sandler calculated an estimated range of theoretical enterprise values for Orthofix based on the net present value of (i) projected unlevered after-tax free cash flows from July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2031 (which reflected estimated NOL generation and usage over such period), discounted back to June 30, 2022, and (ii) a projected terminal value at December 31, 2031, calculated using a range of perpetuity growth rates ranging from 2.0% to 3.5%, selected by Piper Sandler based on its professional judgment, discounted back to June 30, 2022. The after-tax free cash flows for each year were calculated based on estimates provided to Piper Sandler by Orthofix’s management, see the section entitled “— Certain Unaudited Prospective Financial Information.” Piper Sandler calculated the range of net present values for unlevered free cash flows for such periods, as well as the terminal value, based on a range of discount rates ranging from 9.2% to 11.2%, its estimation of Orthofix’s WACC, using CAPM, together with a size premium in order to derive a range of implied enterprise values for Orthofix. Piper Sandler then derived a range of implied per share values for Orthofix common stock using balance sheet data and diluted share information described above, which reference range was $18.15-$30.17, as compared to the Orthofix Closing Price of $18.34.

The third full paragraph on page 105 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

Piper Sandler acted as exclusive financial advisor to SeaSpine in connection with the merger and will receive an aggregate fee contingent upon the consummation of the merger, estimated based on the information that is available as of the date of the public announcement of the merger, of approximately $4.3 million, $1 million of such fee which was payable to Piper Sandler for rendering its fairness opinion and is creditable against the total fee. The opinion fee was not contingent upon the consummation of the merger or the conclusions reached in Piper Sandler’s opinion. SeaSpine has also agreed to indemnify Piper Sandler against certain liabilities and reimburse Piper Sandler for certain expenses in connection with its services. Piper Sandler previously provided financial advisory and financing services to SeaSpine in connection with acting as SeaSpine’s joint bookrunner in connection with the SeaSpine common stock offering in April 2021, for which Piper Sandler received a fee of approximately $2.1 million. In the past two years preceding the date of Piper Sandler’s opinion, Piper Sandler had not received any revenue in respect of any financial advisory or financing services provided to Orthofix. In addition, in the ordinary course of its business, Piper Sandler and its affiliates may actively trade securities of SeaSpine and Orthofix for their own account or the account of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold a long or short position in such securities. Piper Sandler may also, in the future, provide investment banking and financial advisory services to SeaSpine, Orthofix or entities that are affiliated with SeaSpine or Orthofix, for which Piper Sandler would expect to receive compensation.

The table on page 106 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

The third full paragraph on page 109 is replaced in its entirety as follows (with additions in italics and underlined):

The following table presents risk-adjusted summary selected unaudited projected financial information for SeaSpine on a standalone basis for the six months ended December 31, 2022 and for calendar years 2023 through 2031 prepared by management in connection with the review of the proposed strategic transaction with Orthofix and Merger Sub. “Risk-Adjusted” refers to management taking into account the risks and uncertainties of SeaSpine’s business, including as set forth above.

The following table is added after the first full paragraph on page 110:
