On January 5, 2023, the Company and SeaSpine completed an all-stock merger of equals (the "Merger") to create a leading global spine and orthopedics company with highly complementary portfolios of biologics, innovative spinal hardware, bone growth therapies, specialized orthopedic solutions, and a leading surgical navigation system. As a result of the Merger, each share of SeaSpine common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger was converted into the right to receive 0.4163 shares of Orthofix common stock.

The Merger is being accounted for as an acquisition of SeaSpine by Orthofix under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, Orthofix is treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. In identifying the acquirer, Orthofix and SeaSpine considered the structure of the transaction and other actions contemplated by the merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement"), relative outstanding share ownership, market values, the composition of the combined company's Board of Directors, and the relative size of Orthofix and SeaSpine. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of SeaSpine and its subsidiaries have been recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date.

The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The Company finalized its valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed during the fourth quarter of 2023. Certain acquired assets and liabilities assumed were valued utilizing Level 3 inputs and assumptions.
