Item 2.02.  Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On April 30, 2024, Merit Medical Systems, Inc. (“Merit”) issued a press release announcing its operating and financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

On April 30, 2024, Merit is conducting a conference call to discuss its operating and financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. A live webcast and slide presentation will also be available for the conference call on the Merit’s website. A copy of the slide presentation is furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to this report.

The information contained in Item 2.02 and Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K (including the exhibits attached hereto) is furnished pursuant to General Instruction B.2. of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing made by Merit under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.

Merit is making reference to non-GAAP financial information in both the press release and the conference call. Reconciliations of certain of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the press release and slide presentation attached as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2, respectively, to this report. Merit does not provide guidance for GAAP reported financial measures (other than revenue) or a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP reported financial measures (other than revenue) because Merit is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the financial impact of items such as expenses related to acquisitions or other extraordinary transactions, non-cash expenses related to amortization or write-off of previously acquired tangible and intangible assets, certain severance expenses, performance-based stock compensation expenses, corporate transformation expenses, expenses resulting from non-ordinary course litigation or administrative proceedings and resulting settlements, governmental proceedings, and changes in governmental or industry regulations. These items are uncertain, depend on various factors, and could have a material impact on GAAP reported results for the guidance period. For the same reasons, Merit is unable to address the significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results. Specifically, Merit is not, without unreasonable effort, able to reliably predict the impact of these items and Merit believes inclusion of a reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP figures to their GAAP counterparts could be confusing to investors or cause undue reliance.
