UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared by CONMED Corporation (“CONMED”, “we”, “our”, “us” or “the Company”) to reflect our acquisition of Buffalo Filter, LLC (“Buffalo Filter”), which was completed on February 11, 2019 (the “Acquisition”) and the related financing. The Acquisition is more fully described in Item 2.01 of the Current Report on Form 8-K that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 11, 2019. In conjunction with the Acquisition, we (i) entered into our sixth amended and restated senior credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), consisting of (a) a $265 million term loan facility and (b) a $585 million revolving credit facility, and (ii) issued $345 million in 2.625% convertible notes due in 2024 (the "Notes"), to fund a portion of the Acquisition purchase price (the Credit Agreement and Notes together with the Acquisition, the “Transactions”). The Credit Agreement and Notes are more fully described in Item 2.03 of the Current Reports on Form 8-K that we filed with the SEC on February 7, 2019 and January 29, 2019, respectively.

The accompanying pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared by applying pro forma adjustments to the individual historical audited financial statements of CONMED and Buffalo Filter. The unaudited condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, has been prepared giving effect to the Transactions as if they had been completed on December 31, 2018. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of comprehensive income of CONMED for the year ended December 31, 2018 is presented as if the Transactions had occurred on January 1, 2018, the first day of our fiscal 2018.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information includes unaudited pro forma adjustments that we believe are factually supportable and directly attributable to the Transactions. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 – Business Combinations and are based on CONMED’s historical audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 and Buffalo Filter’s historical audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, however the final acquisition accounting adjustments may be materially different from the unaudited pro forma adjustments. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented for informational purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to represent what our results of operations or financial condition would have been had the Transactions actually occurred on the dates indicated, nor do they purport to project our results of operations or financial condition for any future period or as of any future date. All pro forma adjustments and their underlying assumptions are described more fully in the notes to our unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. In addition, these pro forma financial statements do not reflect the realization of any cost savings that we may achieve from operating efficiencies, synergies or other restructuring activities that may result from the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements used in preparation of these pro forma statements including CONMED’s consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2019 (our “Form 10-K”) and Buffalo Filter’s financial statements contained in Exhibit 99.1 of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A.

Notes to the Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(unaudited, in thousands)

Note 1 - Description of the Transaction

On February 11, 2019, we completed the acquisition of Buffalo Filter (the “Acquisition”) pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated December 13, 2018, by and among CONMED and Filtration Group FGC LLC ("Filtration Group") for total consideration of $365.0 million (based on an aggregate purchase price of $365 million as adjusted pursuant to the Purchase Agreement). Buffalo Filter develops, manufactures and markets smoke evacuation technologies that are complementary to CONMED's General Surgery product offering.  The acquisition was funded through a combination of cash on hand and long-term borrowings as further described below.

The Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 14, 2018.

On February 7, 2019, in connection with the Acquisition, we entered into a sixth amended and restated senior credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) consisting of: (a) a $265 million term loan facility and (b) a $585 million revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility will terminate and the loans outstanding under the term loan facility will expire on the earlier of (i) February 7, 2024 or (ii) 91 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date of the 2.625% convertible notes due in 2024 described below, (if, as of such date, more than $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of such convertible notes (or any refinancing thereof) remains outstanding). The term loan is payable in quarterly installments increasing over the term of the facility. Proceeds from the term loan facility and borrowings under the revolving credit facility were used to repay the then existing senior credit agreement and to finance the acquisition of Buffalo Filter. Initial interest rates are at LIBOR plus a base rate (1.875%). For those borrowings where we elect to use the alternate base rate, the initial base rate will be the greatest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or (iii) the one-month Eurocurrency Rate plus 1.00%, plus, in each case, an interest rate margin.

On January 29, 2019, we issued $345 million in 2.625% convertible notes due in 2024 (the "Notes"). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing August 1, 2019. The Notes will mature on February 1, 2024, unless earlier repurchased or converted. The Notes represent subordinated unsecured obligations and are convertible under certain circumstances, as defined in the indenture, into a combination of cash and CONMED common stock.  The Notes may be converted at an initial conversion rate of 11.2608 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $88.88 per share of common stock). Holders of the Notes may convert their Notes at their option at any time on or after November 1, 2023 through the second scheduled trading day preceding the maturity date. Holders of their Notes will also have the right to convert the Notes prior to November 1, 2023, but only upon the occurrence of specified events. The conversion rate is subject to anti-dilution adjustments if certain events occur. A portion of the net proceeds from the offering of the notes were used as part of the financing for the Buffalo Filter acquisition and $21.0 million were used to pay the cost of certain convertible notes hedge transactions.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been prepared based on the historical financial information of CONMED and Buffalo Filter as adjusted to give effect to the Acquisition, Credit Agreement and Notes. The unaudited pro forma combined statement of comprehensive income for the year-ended December 31, 2018 gives effect to the Acquisition, Credit Agreement and Notes as if they had occurred on January 1, 2018.  The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of December 31, 2018 gives effect to the Acquisition, Credit Agreement and Notes as if they had occurred on December 31, 2018.  We believe that the assumptions used and the adjustments made are reasonable given the information available as of the date of this Form 8-K/A. Certain footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by SEC rules and regulations.

The Acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting based on ASC 805 which requires recognition and measurement of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their full fair value as of the date control is obtained. The preliminary valuation of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was used by management to prepare the unaudited condensed combined financial information. The pro forma purchase price allocation below has been developed based on these preliminary estimates of fair value as of December 31, 2018. Final valuation of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to revision based upon management’s completed analysis and calculations. Such final adjustments, including changes to amortizable tangible and intangible assets, may be material.
