BUSINESS BUSINESS
OrthoPediatrics Corp., a Delaware corporation, is a medical device company committed to designing, developing and marketing anatomically appropriate implants, instruments and braces for children with orthopedic conditions, giving pediatric orthopedic surgeons and caregivers the ability to treat children with technologies specifically designed to meet their needs. We sell our specialized products, including PediLoc®, PediPlates®, Cannulated Screws, PediFlexTM nail, PediNailTM, PediLoc® Tibia, ACL Reconstruction System, Locking Cannulated Blade, Locking Proximal Femur, Spica Tables, RESPONSETM Spine, BandLocTM, Pediatric Nailing Platform | Femur, Orthex, QuickPackTM and ApiFix® Mid-C System, to various hospitals and medical facilities throughout the United States and various international markets. We currently use a contract manufacturing model for the manufacturing of implants and related surgical instrumentation.

We are the only global medical device company focused exclusively on providing a comprehensive trauma and deformity correction, scoliosis and sports medicine product offering to the pediatric orthopedic market in order to improve the lives of children with orthopedic conditions. Since inception we have impacted the lives of over 560,000 children. We design, develop and commercialize innovative orthopedic implants and instruments to meet the specialized needs of pediatric surgeons and their patients, who we believe have been largely neglected by the orthopedic industry. We currently serve three of the largest categories in this market. We estimate that the portion of this market that we currently serve represents a $3,300,000 opportunity globally, including over $1,500,000 in the United States.

Our largest investor is Squadron, a private investment firm based in Granby, Connecticut.
A novel strain of the coronavirus disease was first identified in Wuhan, China in December 2019, and the related outbreak was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization and a national emergency by the President of the United States. As a result of the pandemic, we have experienced significant business disruption. For example, in order to meet the demand for COVID-19-related hospitalizations, various governments, governmental agencies and hospital administrators required certain hospitals to postpone some elective procedures. In addition, elective procedures are also being delayed in some cases as hospitals continue to struggle with adequate staffing levels. As a majority of our products are utilized in elective surgeries or procedures, the deferrals of such surgeries and procedures have had, and may continue to have, a significant negative impact on our business and results of operations. Despite the impact COVID-19 has had on our business, we continued to invest in research and development, invest in our people, and take steps to position ourselves for long-term success. We continue to train and educate our sales team and our surgeons on our products. We have continued to focus on developing innovative solutions, acquired multiple enabling technologies, invested in both new and existing partnerships and continued to deploy additional consigned instrument and implant sets in furtherance of our strategy. The extent to which COVID-19 may continue to negatively impact the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows is uncertain and will be closely monitored.
