EXACTECH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 AND 2015

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Exactech, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Exactech”, “we”, “us” or “our”), which are for interim periods, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures provided in the Company's audited annual financial statements. The condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes contained in Exactech's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, consisting of normal recurring adjustments. Our subsidiaries, Exactech Asia, Exactech UK, Exactech Japan, Exactech France, Exactech Taiwan, Exactech Deutschland, Exactech Ibérica, Exactech International Operations, Blue Ortho, Exactech Australia and Exactech U.S., are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Certain amounts reported for prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation.

During the first quarter of 2016, we changed the classification of surgical instrumentation not yet placed in service from non-current inventory in the other assets category to surgical instrumentation in the property, plant and equipment category. In order to present comparable financial statements, we reclassified $14.4 million of non-current inventory in the December 31, 2015 balance sheet to property, plant and equipment. We also reclassified the effect of the classification change on the cash flow statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 by reducing cash used for inventory by $4.8 million in cash flow from operations and increasing the cash used for property, plant and equipment in cash flow from investing. The prior period reclassification had no impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income or equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the third quarter of 2016, we reclassified the inventory allowance reconciling items for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 reported on the cash flow statement and in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.  The prior period change resulted in no impact on our operating cash flows in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, our condensed consolidated statements of income or equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND STANDARDS

In October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance which allows recognition of the income tax consequences upon intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify how certain transactions are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is aimed at reducing the existing diversity in practice. The guidance will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance related to accounting for employee share-based payments. The guidance simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December

6

15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance on leases. The new standard requires all lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset, measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, at the lease commencement date. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged under the new guidance.  A modified retrospective approach should be applied for leases existing at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance on income taxes, which simplifies the classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets in a classified statement of financial position. The amendment requires entities that present a classified balance sheet to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets as a noncurrent amount. The amendment is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be early adopted on a prospective basis or on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. In the first quarter of 2016 we adopted the amended guidance on a retrospective basis, and reclassified $1.7 million of current deferred tax assets to non-current deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2015.

In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance on business combination provisional adjustments during the measurement period. The new standard requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early application is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements; however, we do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new revenue recognition guidance that supersedes the existing revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance applicable to revenue recognition. The new guidance is based on the principle that revenue is recognized upon the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively, and clarify guidance for multiple-element arrangements. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date of this guidance by one year. The guidance is effective for the first fiscal quarter of 2018, and early application is not permitted earlier than January 1, 2015.  We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASURES

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, debt, and foreign currency hedges. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, and trade receivables approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate associated with the debt. The fair values of foreign currency hedges are based on dealer quotes.

The table below provides information on our liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

(In Thousands)	Total Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
September 30, 2016
Liabilities
Contingent consideration	$	8,599	$	—	$	—	$	8,599
Total:	$	8,599	$	—	$	—	$	8,599
December 31, 2015
Liabilities
Contingent consideration	$	6,222	$	—	$	—	$	6,222
Total:	$	6,222	$	—	$	—	$	6,222

7

The fair value of our contingent consideration liability is management's best estimate based on the present value of estimated payment scenarios, which is determined based on inputs not observable in the market. We use assumptions we believe would be made by a market participant. We evaluate our estimates on a quarterly basis, as additional data impacting the assumptions is obtained, and recognize any changes in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. See Note 12, Business Acquisition, for further discussion on the contingent consideration.

5. HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Foreign Currency Transactions

The following table provides information on the components of our foreign currency transactions recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016			2015			2016			2015
Foreign currency transactions gain (loss)	$	155		$	23		$	1,081		$	(475	)
Foreign currency option loss		(82	)		(126	)		(416	)		(387	)
Foreign currency gain (loss), net	$	73		$	(103	)	$	665		$	(862	)

Foreign Currency Transactions – Gains and losses resulting from our transactions and our subsidiaries’ transactions that are made in currencies different from our and their own are included in income as they occur and as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Foreign Currency Options – During 2016, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the exchange rate fluctuations of the U.S. Dollar (USD) against the Euro (EUR), the British Pound (GBP) and the Japanese Yen (JPY). During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized losses of $0.4 million related to these instruments.  The recognized losses were recorded in other income

8

(expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon dealers’ quotes.

During 2015, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the strengthening of the USD against the EUR and the JPY. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a loss of $0.4 million in the condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon dealers’ quotes.

Foreign Currency Translation

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The functional currency of substantially all of our international subsidiaries is their local currency. Transactions are translated into USD, and translation gains and losses are recognized in “Other comprehensive income (loss)”. Fluctuations in exchange rates affect our financial position and results of operations. The majority of our foreign currency exposure is to the EUR, GBP, Australian Dollar (AUD) and JPY. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, translation gains were $2.4 million, which were primarily due to the weakening of the GBP and offset partially by the strengthening of the JPY and the AUD in each case against the USD. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, translation losses were $2.7 million, which were primarily due to the weakening of the JPY against the USD, offset partially by the strengthening of the EUR and GBP against the USD. We do not expect that translation gains and losses for the balance of the year ending December 31, 2016 will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Hedging Activities

We do not enter into or hold derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. During December 2015, we terminated our interest rate swap, which we had entered into to eliminate variability in future cash flows by converting LIBOR-based variable-rate interest payments into fixed-rate interest payments. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreement was based on dealer quotes. The change in fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $6,000 was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets.

6. INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using a FIFO inventory method. Inventory is comprised of implants and instruments held for sale, including implants consigned or loaned to customers and agents. The consigned or loaned inventory remains our inventory until we are notified of the implantation. We are required to maintain substantial levels of inventory because it is necessary to maintain all sizes of each component to fill customer orders. The size of the component to be used for a specific patient is typically not known with certainty until the time of surgery, and certain sizes are typically used less frequently than the “standard” sizes. Due to this uncertainty, a minimum of one of each size of each component in the system to be used must be available to each sales representative at the time of surgery, including unusual sizes that will be sold less frequently than “standard” sizes. Although we may conclude that it is more likely than not that all quantities on hand of certain sizes will eventually not be sold, we do not consider such items “excess inventory,” as our business model requires that we maintain such quantities in order to sell the “standard” sizes. As a result of the need to maintain substantial levels of all sizes and components of inventory, we are subject to the risk of inventory obsolescence. In the event that a substantial portion of our inventory becomes obsolete, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

An allowance charge for slow moving inventories is recorded based upon an analysis of slow moving inventory items within a product group level. The slow moving inventory allowance is analyzed and calculated based on comparing the current quantity of inventory to historical sales and provides an allowance for any slow moving inventory on a systematic basis, which recognizes the cost of anticipated future obsolescence over the average fifteen year expected life of product groups. We believe this method is appropriate as it recognizes the lack of utility of these items (as a charge to cost of goods sold) over the related product group revenue life cycle. The key inputs to our slow moving allowance are trailing twelve months usage and the expected product life. Due to the nature of slow moving inventory changes in sales patterns from historical trends and future product release schedules, this could impact our allowance analysis. For items that we identify as obsolete, we record a charge to reduce their carrying value to net realizable value. We also maintain an allowance for discrepant inventory to allow for items that are lost or damaged.  Allowance charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $1.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Allowance charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $1.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

We also test our inventory levels for the amount of inventory that we expect to sell within one year. Due to the scope of products required to support surgeries and the fact that we stock new subsidiaries, add consignment locations, and launch new products, the level of inventory often exceeds the forecasted level of cost of goods sold for the next twelve months. We classify our estimate of such inventory as non-current.

The following table summarizes our classifications of inventory as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015: 

(in thousands)	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Raw materials	$	21,437	$	19,481
Work in process		1,609		1,633
Finished goods on hand		16,524		14,497
Finished goods on loan/consignment		50,337		44,813
Inventory total		89,907		80,424
Non-current inventories		12,341		8,995
Inventories, current	$	77,566	$	71,429

7. INCOME TAX

At September 30, 2016, net operating loss carry forwards of our foreign and domestic subsidiaries totaled $29 million, some of which begin to expire in 2020. For accounting purposes, the estimated tax effect of these net operating loss carry forwards results in a deferred tax asset.  The deferred tax asset associated with these losses was $8.7 million with a valuation allowance of $4.8 million charged against this deferred tax asset assuming these losses will not be fully realized. At December 31, 2015, these net operating loss carry forwards totaled $27.3 million, and the deferred tax asset was $8.5 million with a valuation allowance of $4.3 million charged against this deferred tax asset assuming these losses will not be fully realized.

Our income tax returns are subject to examination in numerous state, federal and foreign jurisdictions due to the multiple income tax jurisdictions in which we operate. We are not currently aware of any material open examinations in any such jurisdiction. As of September 30, 2016, we had no liability recorded as an uncertain tax benefit.

8. DEBT

Debt consisted of the following as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

There are various claims, lawsuits, and disputes with third parties and pending actions involving various allegations against us incident to the operation of our business, principally product liability cases. While we believe that the various claims are without merit, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of such litigation. We therefore maintain insurance, subject to self-insured retention limits, for all such claims, and establish accruals for product liability and other claims based upon our experience with similar past claims, advice of counsel and the best information reasonably available. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $120,000 and $100,000 accrued, respectively, for product liability claims. These product liability claims are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that they may be resolved unfavorably to us. While it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of the various cases, it is the opinion of management that, upon ultimate resolution, the cases will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our insurance policies covering product liability claims must be renewed annually. Although we have been able to obtain insurance coverage for product liability claims at a cost and on other terms and conditions that have been acceptable to us, we may not be able to procure acceptable policies in the future.

Purchase Commitments

At September 30, 2016, we had outstanding commitments for the purchase of inventory, raw materials and supplies of $13.5 million and outstanding commitments for the purchase of capital equipment of $5.4 million. Purchases under our distribution agreements were $2.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

In June 2016 we entered into an agreement to pay a total of $5.9 million for the naming of the Exactech Arena at the newly remodeled Stephen C. O’Connell Center, a sports and entertainment complex on the University of Florida’s campus. Payments will be made annually over the term of the agreement. The sponsorship gives us presence at the venue, use of University of Florida facilities and television coverage and commercial spots on Fox Sports Sun and Fox Sports Florida during arena events. The 10-year agreement will become effective December 1, 2016, and contains an option to extend for an additional five years.

Our Taiwanese subsidiary, Exactech Taiwan, entered into a license agreement with the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) for the rights to technology and patents related to the repair of cartilage lesions. As of September 30, 2016, we have paid approximately $2.1 million for the licenses, patents, and equipment related to this license agreement, and we will make royalty payments when the technology becomes marketable. Using the technology, we plan to launch a cartilage repair program that will include a device and method for the treatment and repair of cartilage in the knee joint. It is expected that the project will require us to complete human clinical trials under the guidance of the Food & Drug Administration in order to obtain pre-market approval for the device in the United States. The agreement terms include a license fee based on the achievement of specific, regulatory milestones and a royalty arrangement based on sales once regulatory clearances are established.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We evaluate our operating segments by our major product lines: extremity implants, knee implants, hip implants, biologics and spine, and other products. The “other products” segment includes miscellaneous sales categories, such as surgical instruments held for sale, bone cement, instrument rental fees, shipping charges, and other implant product lines. Evaluation of the performance of operating segments is based on their respective incomes from operations before taxes, interest income and expense, and nonrecurring items. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Total assets not identified with a specific segment are listed as “corporate” and include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, deposits and prepaid expenses, deferred tax assets, land, facilities, office furniture and computer equipment, notes receivable, and other investments. Depreciation and amortization on corporate assets is allocated to the product segments for purposes of evaluating the income (loss) from operations, and capitalized surgical instruments are allocated to the appropriate product line supported by those assets.

Treasury Stock:

In December 2015, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1.0 million shares of our common stock over a two-year period. As of September 30, 2016, we had repurchased 163,529 shares of our common stock at an average price of $18.60 per share, or an aggregate of $3.0 million.

Stock-based Compensation Awards:

We sponsor an Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, which provides for the award of stock-based compensation, including options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based incentive compensation awards to key employees, directors and independent agents and consultants. We implemented a comprehensive, consolidated incentive compensation plan upon shareholder approval at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2009, which was amended and restated at our 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, held on May 8, 2014, to increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the plan by 500,000. We refer to this plan, as amended, as the 2009 Plan. The maximum number of common shares issuable under the 2009 Plan is 1,500,000 plus (a) the number of shares with respect to awards previously granted under our preexisting plans that terminate without being exercised, expire, are forfeited or canceled, plus (b) the number of shares that remain available for future issuance under our preexisting plans plus (c) the number of shares that are surrendered in payment of any awards or any tax withholding with respect thereto. Common stock issued upon exercise of stock options is settled with authorized but unissued shares available. Under the 2009 Plan, the exercise price of option awards equals the market price of our common stock on the date of grant, and each award has a maximum term of ten years. As of September 30, 2016, there were 414,714 total shares remaining issuable under the 2009 Plan.

The aggregate compensation cost charged against income with respect to awards issued under the 2009 Plan and the 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, referred to as the 2009 ESPP, was $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Income tax benefit on exercises of non-qualified stock options was $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  As of September 30, 2016, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards was $1.2 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.

Stock Options:

A summary of the status of stock option activity under our stock-based compensation plans as of September 30, 2016 and changes during the year to date is presented below:

	2016
	Options			Weighted Avg Exercise Price		Weighted Avg Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (In thousands)
Outstanding - January 1		1,217,003		$	18.70
Granted		18,500			23.00
Exercised		(142,963	)		16.95			$	664
Forfeited or Expired		(140,086	)		17.66
Outstanding - September 30		952,454		$	19.20		3.53	$	7,453
Exercisable - September 30		530,602		$	18.05		2.78	$	4,766

Outstanding options, consisting of five-year to ten-year incentive and non-qualified stock options, vest and become exercisable ratably over a three to five year period from the date of grant. The outstanding options expire from five to ten years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment with Exactech, and are contingent upon continued employment during the applicable option term. Certain non-qualified stock options are granted to non-employee sales agents and consultants, and they typically vest ratably over a period of three to four years from the date of grant and expire in five years or less from the date of grant, or upon termination of the agent's or consultant’s contract with Exactech.  Stock options for the purchase of 18,500 shares of common stock were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to stock options for the purchase of 176,125 shares of common stock granted during the same period in 2015.

Restricted Stock Awards:

Under the 2009 Plan, we may grant restricted stock awards to eligible employees, directors, and independent agents and consultants. Restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Committee, at the time of the award. In February 2016, the Committee approved equity compensation to the outside members of the Board of Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. The annual compensation for each outside director consists of the grant of stock awards with an aggregate market value of $77,500, payable in four equal quarterly grants of common stock based on the market prices of our common stock on the respective dates of grant. The summary information of the restricted stock grants for the first nine months of 2016 is presented below:

Grant date	February 29, 2016		May 31, 2016		August 31, 2016
Aggregate shares of restricted stock granted		5,190		3,925		3,485
Grant date fair value	$	97,000	$	97,000	$	97,000
Weighted average fair value per share	$	18.65	$	24.68	$	27.79

During February 2015, the Committee approved equity compensation to the outside members of the Board of Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. The annual compensation for each outside director consisted of the grant of stock awards with an aggregate market value of $77,500, payable in four equal quarterly grants of common stock based on the market prices of our common stock on the respective dates of grant. The summary information of the restricted stock grants for the first nine months of 2015 is presented below:

Grant date	February 27, 2015		May 29, 2015		August 31, 2015
Aggregate shares of restricted stock granted		4,974		4,530		4,940
Grant date fair value	$	116,000	$	97,000	$	97,000
Weighted average fair value per share	$	23.35	$	21.38	$	19.61

All of the restricted stock awards in 2016 and 2015 were fully vested at each of the grant dates. The restricted stock awards require no service period and thus contain no risk of, or provision for, forfeiture.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan:

On February 18, 2009, our Board of Directors adopted the 2009 ESPP, and our shareholders approved the 2009 ESPP at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2009. Under the 2009 ESPP, employees are able to purchase shares of our common stock at a fifteen percent (15%) discount via payroll deduction, up to a maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP of 300,000. In February 2016, our Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the 2009 ESPP to increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP to 450,000, which was approved by our shareholders at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 2, 2016.  There are four offering periods during an annual period.  As of September 30, 2016, 151,430 shares remained available for purchase under the 2009 ESPP. The fair value of the employees' purchase rights is estimated using the Black-Scholes model. Purchase information and fair value assumptions are presented in the following table:

Nine Months Ended September 30,	2016			2015
Shares purchased		37,749			33,800

12. BUSINESS ACQUISITION

Exactech Australia

On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Exactech Australia Pty Ltd, an Australia-based company. Exactech Australia has been our independent importer and distribution partner in Australia for the past four years. The acquisition was accomplished to further the partnership between us and the team at Exactech Australia and to further service customers in the Asia Pacific area.

The aggregate purchase price for Exactech Australia will range from $3.1 million AUD to $7.6 million AUD, of which $1.6 million AUD, or $1.1 million USD at a 0.7034 AUD:USD exchange rate, was paid to the Exactech Australia shareholders in cash at the closing of the acquisition, and the remainder will be paid to such shareholders contingent on the achievement of certain future milestones. We expect the contingent payment to be paid over the next two years. Consideration also included $2.0 million USD in forgiven accounts receivable that were owed to us as of February 1, 2016. We are currently awaiting finalization of Exactech Australia’s closing balance sheet to complete purchase accounting. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using the following assumptions: discount rates of 3.7%, probability levels of milestone range of outcomes, and expected timing of achievement of contingent consideration earn-out amounts. We financed the acquisition from our operating cash flows.

Upon completion of the acquisition, we effectively concluded a pre-existing distribution agreement for the distribution of our products, which was stated at fair value; therefore, we recognized no impact to the statement of income. The accounting for our acquisition of Exactech Australia is preliminary, pending final results of operations and deferred tax liability determination. The preliminary goodwill was determined as the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired, and was due to the synergies we obtained in the extended service in Australia. Goodwill was allocated to the knee, extremity and hip segments based on expected sales for the segments. Pro forma revenue and earnings for the business combination have not been presented because the effects, both individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our results of operations.

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation and determination of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes, as of February 1, 2016 (in thousands):

	Amounts at Acquisition
Consideration:
Cash	$	1,152
Fair value of contingent consideration		2,435
Total Purchase Price		3,587
Forgiveness of pre-existing debt		2,006
		5,593
Acquisition related expenses - incurred as of September 30, 2016	$	131
Preliminary identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Current assets acquired		1,616
Property and equipment		722
Current liabilities assumed		(208	)
Deferred tax liability assumed		(161	)
Identifiable intangible assets		535
		2,504
Goodwill		3,089
Net assets acquired	$	5,593

The identifiable intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method using estimated ten year useful lives, and are recorded net of accumulated amortization in Customer relationships on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Blue Ortho

On January 15, 2015, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Blue Ortho SAS, a France-based company. Blue Ortho is the computer-assisted surgical technology development and manufacturing firm that partnered with the Company to develop the ExactechGPS^® Guided Personalized Surgery system. We acquired Blue Ortho to further the partnership between us and the team at Blue Ortho and expand the development of ExactechGPS to other segments of our portfolio.

The aggregate purchase price for Blue Ortho is a maximum of €10.0 million, of which €2.0 million, or $2.3 million at a 1.16 USD exchange rate at closing, was paid to the Blue Ortho shareholders in cash at the closing of the acquisition, and the remainder will be paid to such shareholders contingent on the achievement of certain future surgical case milestones. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using the following assumptions: discount rates of 4.5-6.5%, probability levels of milestone range of outcomes, and expected timing of achievement of contingent consideration earn-out amounts. We expect the contingent consideration to be paid over the next five to ten years. We financed the acquisition from our operating cash flows.

We acquired tangible assets of $1.5 million, assumed liabilities of $2.9 million, intangible assets, comprising product licenses and designs, of $7.5 million, and goodwill of $6.5 million. Pro forma revenue and earnings for the business combination have not been presented because the effects, both individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our results of operations.

Due to our expected timing of earn-out payments, a portion of the contingent consideration is classified in other current liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The remainder is classified as other non-current liabilities. The change in the contingent consideration during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was recognized as interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On October 3, 2016, we paid $2.1 million cash to acquire 24.55% of Orthopedic Designs North America, Inc. (ODi), a company involved in the development, manufacture and distribution of screw and rod fixation devices used in orthopaedic trauma applications. The investment was made to partner with ODi and further support the development of the technology.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report.

Overview of the Company

We develop, manufacture, market and sell orthopaedic implant devices, related surgical instrumentation, supplies and biologic materials to hospitals and physicians in the United States and internationally. Our revenues are principally derived from sales of knee, hip, and extremity joint replacement systems and spinal fusion products. We believe that our continuing research and development projects will enable us to continue the introduction of new joint replacement systems, product line extensions, and other products and services.

Our operating expenses consist of sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, research and development expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses. The largest component of operating expenses, sales and marketing expenses, primarily consists of payments made to independent sales representatives for their services to hospitals and surgical facilities on our behalf. These expenses tend to vary and generally relate to our sales volume. Research and development expenses primarily consist of expenditures on projects concerning knee, extremities, spine and hip implant product lines and biologic materials and services.

In marketing our products, we use a combination of traditional targeted media marketing together with our primary marketing focus, direct customer contact and service to orthopaedic surgeons. Because surgeons are important decision makers when it comes to the choice of products and services that best meet the needs of their patients, we focus our marketing strategy on meeting the needs of the orthopaedic surgeon community. In addition to surgeon’s preference, hospitals and buying groups, as the economic customers, actively participate with physicians in the choice of implants and services.

Non-GAAP financial measures – Because we operate internationally, we present the percentage change in sales by reporting segment on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure.  We calculate this change on a constant currency basis by translating current period sales at the comparable average historical exchange rates for the same period in the prior year. We believe that presenting the percentage change in sales on a constant currency basis assists in the understanding of actual sales fluctuations by excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. Non-GAAP financial measures should be used as a supplement to, but not a substitute for, our financial results reported in accordance with GAAP.

Overview of the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016

During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, sales increased 7% to $59.9 million from $56.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, with a 4% increase in domestic sales and a 14% increase in international sales. Worldwide gross margins decreased to 69% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from 70% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Operating expenses increased 4% when compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2015; however, as a percentage of sales, operating expenses decreased from 62% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 to 61% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 increased 10%, and diluted earnings per share was $0.22 as compared to $0.20 in the same quarter last year, which was primarily a result of the increase in sales.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, sales increased 7% to $191.3 million from $179.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015, with a 7% increase in the domestic sales, primarily due to improvements in our domestic sales organization. Our international sales increased 7%, which reflected the improvement in sales to certain of our international markets. Worldwide gross margins decreased to 69% in the first nine months of 2016, compared to 70% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Operating expenses increased 6% when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2015; however, as a percentage of sales, operating expenses remained unchanged at 60% during each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.  Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased 12%, and diluted earnings per share was $0.84 as compared to $0.75 in the same nine months last year, which was primarily a result of the increase in sales and improvements in managing operating expenses.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we acquired $25.0 million in property and equipment, including a facility in Australia and surgical instrumentation. As of September 30, 2016, cash outlays for our February 2016 acquisition of Exactech Australia, our independent distributor in Australia, were $1.2 million. Net cash flow from operations was $21.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to

19

net cash flow from operations of $28.4 million during the nine months ended September, 2015. The decrease was primarily due to increased purchases of inventory, which was partially offset by higher accounts payable in the first nine months of 2016, as compared to the first nine months of 2015.

The following tables include the net sales and percentage of net sales, as well as a comparison of net sales change to net sales change calculated on a constant currency basis, for each of our product lines, which are also our reportable segments, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015. The constant currency is calculated by translating current period sales at the average historical exchange rates for the same period in the prior year:

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2016 Compared to Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015

Sales

For the quarter ended September 30, 2016, sales increased 7% to $59.9 million from $56.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as a result of the improvements in our domestic sales organization and international growth.  Domestic sales increased 4%, and international sales grew 14%. Sales of our extremity products increased 14% to $22.8 million, as compared to $20.0 million for the same period in 2015, as our expanded Equinoxe^® shoulder system continued to gain market share, including the new Equinoxe Humeral Reconstruction Prosthesis launched earlier this year. Sales of knee implant products increased 11% to $17.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, as compared to $15.3 million for the same quarter in 2015, partially as a result of our new Logic CC knee revision system.  Hip implant sales of $11.6 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 increased 17% from $9.9 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, as our new Alteon^® hip system, featuring both wedge and monobloc revision stems, continued to gain market acceptance. Sales from biologics and spine decreased 23% during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 to $4.4 million from $5.7 million in the comparable quarter in 2015, primarily as a result of pricing pressures and the divestiture of our oral dental product line at the beginning of 2016. Sales of all other products

21

decreased to $4.2 million as compared to $5.4 million in the same quarter last year, primarily as a result of lower cement and instrument sales in international markets.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, sales increased 7% to $191.3 million from $179.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as a result of the improvements in our domestic sales organization and international growth. International sales increased 7% as a result of improved sales in certain of our international markets. Domestic sales increased 7% as we continue to deliver benefits from our sales organization changes over the last couple of years. Sales of our extremity products increased 16% to $71.2 million as compared to $61.5 million for the same period in 2015, as our Equinoxe^® platform shoulder system with its reverse components continued to gain market share we believe as a result of its clinical performance in improving patient outcomes. Sales of knee implant products increased 5% to $55.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to $52.7 million for the same nine months in 2015, primarily as a result of contributions from our Optetrak Logic^® system, as well as the recently released revision system.  Hip implant sales of $35.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 increased 11% from $31.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as our new Alteon^® hip system, featuring both wedge and monobloc revision stems, continued to gain market acceptance. Sales from biologics and spine decreased 9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $15.2 million from $16.7 million in the comparable nine months in 2015, primarily as a result of pricing pressures and the divestiture of our oral dental product line. Sales of all other products decreased to $14.1 million as compared to $16.4 million in the same nine months last year, primarily as a result of lower instrumentation sales in international markets and lower cement sales.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased to $41.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from $39.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015.  As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased to 69% during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from 70% during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Gross profit increased to $131.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $124.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015.  As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased to 69% during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to 70% for the same nine month period in 2015. The decrease in the gross profit percentage during the three and nine months of 2016 was primarily a result of worldwide decreases in average selling prices. Looking forward to the fourth quarter of 2016, we expect gross profit, as a percentage of sales, to decrease approximately 0.20-0.80% on a comparative basis due to pricing pressures.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased 4% to $36.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from $35.1 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015. As a percentage of sales, total operating expenses decreased to 61% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 compared to 62% for the same quarter in 2015. Total operating expenses increased 6% to $114.4 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $107.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As a percentage of sales, total operating expenses remained at 60% for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, as a result of our continued focus on controlling general operating expenses.

Sales and marketing expenses, the largest component of total operating expenses, increased 5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 to $21.7 million from $20.6 million in the same quarter last year. Sales and marketing expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 36% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from 37% for the same quarter in 2015. Sales and marketing expenses increased 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $68.8 million from $63.9 million in the same nine month period last year. Sales and marketing expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained at 36% for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The increase for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 was partially related to operating expenses of our newly acquired Australian distributor, as well as increased variable selling costs. Looking forward, sales and marketing expenditures, as a percentage of sales, are expected to be in the range of 35.5% to 36.5% for the remainder of 2016.

General and administrative expenses remained at $5.2 million for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 8.7% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, as compared to 9.2% for the same quarter of 2015. General and administrative expenses decreased to $16.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to $16.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 8.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to 9.4% for the same period of 2015. The decrease in the percentage of sales was primarily due to lower legal

22

expenses and a result of our efforts to control operating expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 are expected to be in the range of 8.0% to 9.0% of sales.

Research and development expenses decreased 3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 to $5.1 million from $5.3 million in the same quarter last year. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses decreased to 8.5% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 as compared to 9.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The decrease of research and development expenses for the quarter was primarily due to lower product design expenses; however, we do not expect this decrease to continue. Research and development expenses increased 8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 to $15.5 million from $14.4 million in the same period last year. As a percentage of sales, research and development expenses remained comparable at 8.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 8.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in research and development expenses for the nine months was a result of continuing product development costs to support new product launches. We expect research and development expenses ranging from 7.5% to 8.5% of sales for the fourth quarter of 2016.

Depreciation and amortization increased 13% to $4.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from $4.1 million during the same quarter in 2015. As a percentage of sales, depreciation and amortization expense increased to 8% during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from 7% during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. Depreciation and amortization increased 5% to $13.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $12.7 million during the same period in 2015. As a percentage of sales, depreciation and amortization expense remained relatively flat at 7% during each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. We placed $18.5 million of surgical instrumentation, $1.6 million in facility additions, and $3.4 million of equipment in service during the first nine months of 2016.

Income from Operations

Our income from operations increased 1% to $4.6 million, or 8% of sales, in the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from $4.5 million, or 8% of sales, in the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The increase in our income from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily a result of our sales increase. Our income from operations increased 5% to $17.5 million, or 9% of sales, in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $16.7 million, or 9% of sales, in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in our income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily a result of our sales increase, which was offset by a modest increase in operating expenses. Looking forward, we expect operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2016 to grow approximately 2-5%, and together with an anticipated increase in revenue of 3-6% we anticipate income from operations, as a percentage of sales, to increase by 1.0-2.0% for the fourth quarter of 2016.

Other Income and Expenses

We had other expenses, net of other income, of $41,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2016, compared to other expenses, net of other income of $357,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The change for the quarter was partially a result of net foreign currency gains of $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, as compared to net foreign currency losses of $0.1 million for the same quarter of 2015. The increase in currency gains in the quarter ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the strengthening of the Australian Dollar (AUD) and the JPY against the USD offset by the weakening of the British Pound (GBP) on intercompany debt during the quarter ended September 30, 2016. Net interest expense decreased to $0.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 compared to $0.3 million for the same quarter in 2015.

We had other income, net of other expense, of $0.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to other expenses, net of other income of $1.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The change for the nine months was primarily a result of net foreign currency gains of $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to net foreign currency losses of $0.9 million for the same nine months of 2015. The increase in currency gains in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to the strengthening of the Australian Dollar (AUD) and the JPY against the USD on intercompany debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the strengthening of the USD against the EUR and JPY during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Net interest expense was $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $0.9 million for the same nine months in 2015.

Taxes and Net Income

Income before provision for income taxes increased 9% to $4.5 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2016 from $4.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to the impact of sales growth and

23

foreign currency gains. The effective tax rate, as a percentage of income before taxes, was 30% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, compared to 31% for the same quarter in 2015, primarily as a result of the change in the mix of income in the different tax jurisdictions.  As a result of the foregoing, we realized net income of $3.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2016, an increase of 10% from $2.9 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015. As a percentage of sales, net income remained at 5% for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Earnings per share, on a diluted basis, increased to $0.22 for the quarter ended September 30, 2016, from $0.20 for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Income before provision for income taxes increased 17% to $17.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016 from $15.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015, primarily due to the impact of sales growth and foreign currency gains. The effective tax rate, as a percentage of income before taxes, was 32% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to 30% for the same period in 2015, primarily as a result of the change in the mix of income in the different tax jurisdictions and an elimination of a tax valuation allowance in Spain in the quarter ended March 31, 2015.  As a result of the foregoing, we realized net income of $12.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, an increase of 12% from $10.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As a percentage of sales, net income remained at 6% for each of the nine month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Earnings per share, on a diluted basis, increased to $0.84 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, from $0.75 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations primarily through a combination of commercial debt financing and cash flows from operations. As of September 30, 2016, we had working capital of $114.3 million, a 0.4% decrease from $114.8 million at the end of 2015. Working capital in 2016 decreased primarily as a result of our use of cash for increased equipment purchases, as well as stock repurchases, and payments for acquisitions.

We expect that cash flows from operating activities, borrowings under our line of credit, and the issuance of equity securities in connection with both stock purchases under the 2009 ESPP and the exercise of stock option awards under the 2009 Plan will be sufficient to meet our commitments and cash requirements in the next twelve months. If not, we may seek additional funding through any number of possible combinations of additional debt or the issuance of equity or convertible debt. As of September 30, 2016, $6.2 million of our cash balance was held outside the United States. Our foreign cash holdings vary depending on operating cash needs of our foreign subsidiaries and the timing of reimbursements to the United States. There are currently no restrictions against repatriation of this cash.

Operating Activities – Operating activities provided net cash of $21.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to net cash from operations of $28.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. This decrease in the first nine months of 2016 was primarily related to the increase in inventory, which used cash of $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, which was primarily related to inventory builds for new product launches and expansion in existing markets. The operating cash use was offset partially by a decrease in accounts receivable and an increase in accounts payable of $0.1 million, in contrast to a decrease in inventory purchases providing $0.3 million and a $2.2 million decrease in cash flow from accounts payable during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Accounts receivable provided net cash of $1.7 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to use of net cash of $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Our allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns increased to $1.1 million at September 30, 2016 from $1.0 million at December 31, 2015. The total days sales outstanding (DSO) ratio, based on average accounts receivable balances, was 73 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016, as compared to 76 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015, as we continued to see improvement in accounts receivable payment terms in the United States. However, as we continue to expand our operations internationally, our DSO ratio may increase because credit terms outside of the United States tend to be relatively longer than those in the United States.

Investing Activities- Investing activities used net cash of $25.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to $20.8 million used in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The primary reason for the increase was our increased cash outlays for surgical instrumentation, facility and manufacturing equipment, which was $24.5 million during the nine month period ended September 30, 2016, as compared to cash outlays of $18.7 million for purchases of surgical instrumentation, facilities and manufacturing equipment during the same period of 2015.

In February 2016, we acquired Exactech Australia and paid cash consideration of $1.2 million at closing and recognized a preliminary contingent consideration of $2.4 million, which we expect to be paid over the next two years. We funded our acquisition from cash flow from operations. We acquired $1.6 million in current assets,

24

$0.7 million in property and equipment, $0.5 million in identifiable intangible assets, assumed $0.2 million in current liabilities and assumed preliminary deferred taxes of $0.2 million. We have recognized a preliminary goodwill amount of $3.1 million. Our accounting for the acquisition is preliminary and pending final pre-acquisition results and asset valuations. As of September 30, 2016, $1.3 million of the $2.7 million contingent consideration balance was classified in current liabilities due to the expected timing of the earn-out payments.

In January 2015, we acquired Blue Ortho and paid cash consideration of $2.3 million at closing and recognized contingent consideration of $7.1 million, which we expect to pay over the next five to ten years. We funded our acquisition from cash flow from operations. We acquired $1.3 million in current assets, $0.2 million in property and equipment, $7.5 million in identifiable intangible assets, assumed $0.4 million in current liabilities and assumed deferred taxes of $2.5 million. We have recognized a goodwill amount of $6.5 million. We finalized our accounting for the acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2015. As of September 30, 2016 we had $5.9 million of contingent consideration liability in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, of which $1.8 million is classified in other current liabilities, due to our expected timing of earn-out payments. The remaining $4.1 million contingent liability is classified as other non-current liabilities.

Financing Activities- Financing activities provided net cash of $3.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to $0.4 million in net cash used for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. In the first nine months of 2016, we increased the amount outstanding under our line of credit by $4.0 million, as compared to net repayments of debt of $2.3 million in the first nine months of 2015 related to payments on our previous term loan. During the first nine months of 2016, we paid contingent consideration payments to the former shareholders of Blue Ortho of $0.7 million, and we used cash of $3.0 million for the repurchase of our common stock. Proceeds from the exercise of stock options provided cash of $3.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to $2.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and we used the proceeds to fund general working capital.  

Long-term Debt

In December 2015, we entered into a revolving credit line for a maximum aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million, referred to as the Credit Agreement, with JP Morgan Chase Bank, as Administrative Agent, JP Morgan Securities, as Lead Arranger and Lead Bookrunner, and Compass Bank as Syndication Agent. The Credit Agreement is composed of a revolving credit line in an aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, of which, a portion is a $5.0 million swingline facility and portion is a $5.0 million facility for the issuance of letters of credit. Interest on the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement is based, at our election, on a base rate, a LIBOR Rate or an index rate, in each case plus an applicable margin. The Credit Agreement expires on December 16, 2020. The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring that we maintain a leverage ratio of not greater than 3.00 to 1.00 and a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.50 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all financial covenants. For additional information regarding the Credit Agreement, please see note 6 – Debt, to our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Other Commitments and Contingencies

At September 30, 2016, we had outstanding commitments for the purchase of inventory, raw materials and supplies of $13.5 million and outstanding commitments for the purchase of capital equipment of $5.4 million. Purchases under our distribution agreements were $2.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

In June 2016 we entered into an agreement to pay a total of $5.9 million for the naming of the Exactech Arena at the newly remodeled Stephen C. O’Connell Center, a sports and entertainment complex on the University of Florida’s campus. Payments will be made annually over the term of the agreement. The sponsorship agreement gives us presence at the venue, use of University of Florida facilities and television coverage and commercial spots on Fox Sports Sun and Fox Sports Florida during arena events. The 10-year agreement will become effective December 1, 2016, and contains an option to extend for an additional five years.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELATING TO FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains various “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which represent the Company’s expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including, but not limited to, statements regarding growth in sales of the Company’s products, profit margins and the sufficiency of the Company’s cash flow for its future liquidity and capital resource needs. When used in this report, the terms “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect”, “plan” and “intend” and words or phrases of similar import, as they relate to the Company or its subsidiaries or its management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, without limitation, the effect of competitive pricing, the Company’s dependence on the ability of its third-party suppliers to produce components on a cost-effective basis to the Company, significant expenditures of resources to maintain high levels of inventory, market acceptance of the Company’s products, the impact of the medical device excise tax, the outcome of litigation, the effects of governmental regulation, potential product liability risks and risks of securing adequate levels of product liability insurance coverage, and the availability of reimbursement to patients from health care payers for procedures in which the Company’s products are used. Results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results included in these statements as a result of these or other factors, including those factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Exactech undertakes no obligation to update, and the Company does not have a policy of updating or revising, these forward-looking statements. Except where the context otherwise requires, the terms, “we”, “us”, “our”, “the Company,” or “Exactech” refer to the business of Exactech, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk from interest rates. For our cash and cash equivalents, a change in interest rates affects the amount of interest income that can be earned. For our debt instruments, changes in interest rates affect the amount of interest expense incurred. If our variable rates of interest increased by 1%, our debt service would increase by approximately $50,000 for the remainder of 2016.

The table below provides information about our Credit Agreement, which is currently our sole financial instrument sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table presents principal cash flow by expected maturity dates and weighted average interest rates for our debt obligation. We believe that the amounts presented reasonably approximate the financial instrument's fair market value as of September 30, 2016, and the weighted average interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

Liabilities
Line of Credit at variable interest rate	$	—		$	—	$	—	$	—	$	20,000	$	20,000
Weighted average interest rate		1.9	%

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign Currency Translations – We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The functional currency of substantially all of our international subsidiaries is their local currency. Transactions are translated into U.S. Dollars (USD), and exchange gains and losses arising from translation are recognized in “Other comprehensive income (loss)”. Fluctuations in exchange rates affect our financial position and results of operations. The majority of our foreign currency exposure is to the Euro (EUR), British Pound (GBP), Japanese Yen (JPY) and Australian Dollar (AUD). During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, translation gains were $2.4 million, which were primarily due to the strengthening of the JPY and AUD against the USD. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, translation losses were $2.7 million.

Foreign Currency Transactions – The USD is our primary currency, and transactions that are completed in a foreign currency are translated into USD and recorded in our consolidated financial statements. We recognized currency transaction gains of $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, primarily due to the strengthening of the JPY and AUD as compared to the USD, and currency transaction losses of $0.5 million during the same period in 2015. We currently believe that our exchange rate risk exposure is not material to our operations.

Foreign Currency Options – During the first nine months of 2016, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the exchange rate fluctuations of the USD against the EUR, GBP and the JPY. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized losses of $0.4 million related to these instruments because the USD weakened against the EUR and the JPY and strengthened against the GBP.  The recognized losses are recorded in other income (expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon  dealers’ quotes.

During the first nine months of 2015, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the strengthening of the USD against the EUR and the JPY. As of September 30, 2015, we had two foreign currency forward contracts with nine month terms. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a loss of $0.4 million on the condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon dealers’ quotes.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, or “disclosure controls,” pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b). Disclosure controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this quarterly report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls include some, but not all, components of our internal control over financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2016.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 during the three months ended September 30, 2016, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

There are various claims, lawsuits, and disputes with third parties and pending actions involving various allegations against us incident to the operation of our business, principally product liability cases. While we believe that the various claims are without merit, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of such litigation. We therefore maintain insurance, subject to self-insured retention limits, for all such claims, and establish accruals for product liability and other claims based upon our experience with similar past claims, advice of counsel and the best information reasonably available. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $120,000 and $100,000 accrued, respectively, for product liability claims. These product liability claims are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that they may be resolved unfavorably to us. While it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of the various cases, it is the opinion of management that, upon ultimate resolution, the cases will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our insurance policies covering product liability claims must be renewed annually. Although we have been able to obtain insurance coverage for product liability claims at a cost and on other terms and conditions that have been acceptable to us, we may not be able to procure acceptable policies in the future.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis Of Presentation

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Exactech, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “Exactech”, “we”, “us” or “our”), which are for interim periods, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures provided in the Company's audited annual financial statements. The condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes contained in Exactech's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, consisting of normal recurring adjustments. Our subsidiaries, Exactech Asia, Exactech UK, Exactech Japan, Exactech France, Exactech Taiwan, Exactech Deutschland, Exactech Ibérica, Exactech International Operations, Blue Ortho, Exactech Australia and Exactech U.S., are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, and all intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Certain amounts reported for prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation.

During the first quarter of 2016, we changed the classification of surgical instrumentation not yet placed in service from non-current inventory in the other assets category to surgical instrumentation in the property, plant and equipment category. In order to present comparable financial statements, we reclassified $14.4 million of non-current inventory in the December 31, 2015 balance sheet to property, plant and equipment. We also reclassified the effect of the classification change on the cash flow statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 by reducing cash used for inventory by $4.8 million in cash flow from operations and increasing the cash used for property, plant and equipment in cash flow from investing. The prior period reclassification had no impact on our condensed consolidated statements of income or equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

During the third quarter of 2016, we reclassified the inventory allowance reconciling items for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 reported on the cash flow statement and in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.  The prior period change resulted in no impact on our operating cash flows in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, our condensed consolidated statements of income or equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

New Accounting Pronouncements And Changes In Accounting Principles [Abstract]

New Accounting Pronouncements And Standards

2. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS AND STANDARDS

In October 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance which allows recognition of the income tax consequences upon intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory when the transfer occurs. The guidance should be applied on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued new guidance to clarify how certain transactions are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is aimed at reducing the existing diversity in practice. The guidance will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance related to accounting for employee share-based payments. The guidance simplifies the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance on leases. The new standard requires all lessees to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset, measured at the present value of the future minimum lease payments, at the lease commencement date. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged under the new guidance.  A modified retrospective approach should be applied for leases existing at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued amended guidance on income taxes, which simplifies the classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets in a classified statement of financial position. The amendment requires entities that present a classified balance sheet to classify all deferred tax liabilities and assets as a noncurrent amount. The amendment is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016, and may be early adopted on a prospective basis or on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. In the first quarter of 2016 we adopted the amended guidance on a retrospective basis, and reclassified $1.7 million of current deferred tax assets to non-current deferred tax liabilities as of December 31, 2015.

In September 2015, the FASB issued guidance on business combination provisional adjustments during the measurement period. The new standard requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017, and early application is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements; however, we do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new revenue recognition guidance that supersedes the existing revenue recognition guidance and most industry-specific guidance applicable to revenue recognition. The new guidance is based on the principle that revenue is recognized upon the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively, and clarify guidance for multiple-element arrangements. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date of this guidance by one year. The guidance is effective for the first fiscal quarter of 2018, and early application is not permitted earlier than January 1, 2015.  We are currently assessing the impact of adopting this guidance on our financial statements.

Fair Value Measures

3. FAIR VALUE MEASURES

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, debt, and foreign currency hedges. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, and trade receivables approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value due to the variable interest rate associated with the debt. The fair values of foreign currency hedges are based on dealer quotes.

The table below provides information on our liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

(In Thousands)	Total Fair Value		Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
September 30, 2016

Liabilities
Contingent consideration	$	6,222	$	—	$	—	$	6,222
Total:	$	6,222	$	—	$	—	$	6,222

The fair value of our contingent consideration liability is management's best estimate based on the present value of estimated payment scenarios, which is determined based on inputs not observable in the market. We use assumptions we believe would be made by a market participant. We evaluate our estimates on a quarterly basis, as additional data impacting the assumptions is obtained, and recognize any changes in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. See Note 12, Business Acquisition, for further discussion on the contingent consideration.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The following table provides information on the components of our foreign currency transactions recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2016			2015			2016			2015

Foreign currency gain (loss), net	$	73		$	(103	)	$	665		$	(862	)

Foreign Currency Transactions – Gains and losses resulting from our transactions and our subsidiaries’ transactions that are made in currencies different from our and their own are included in income as they occur and as other income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Foreign Currency Options – During 2016, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the exchange rate fluctuations of the U.S. Dollar (USD) against the Euro (EUR), the British Pound (GBP) and the Japanese Yen (JPY). During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized losses of $0.4 million related to these instruments.  The recognized losses were recorded in other income (expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon dealers’ quotes.

During 2015, we entered into foreign currency forward contracts as economic hedges against the strengthening of the USD against the EUR and the JPY. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a loss of $0.4 million in the condensed consolidated statements of income related to the fair value of these currency options based upon dealers’ quotes.

Foreign Currency Translation

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The functional currency of substantially all of our international subsidiaries is their local currency. Transactions are translated into USD, and translation gains and losses are recognized in “Other comprehensive income (loss)”. Fluctuations in exchange rates affect our financial position and results of operations. The majority of our foreign currency exposure is to the EUR, GBP, Australian Dollar (AUD) and JPY. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, translation gains were $2.4 million, which were primarily due to the weakening of the GBP and offset partially by the strengthening of the JPY and the AUD in each case against the USD. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, translation losses were $2.7 million, which were primarily due to the weakening of the JPY against the USD, offset partially by the strengthening of the EUR and GBP against the USD. We do not expect that translation gains and losses for the balance of the year ending December 31, 2016 will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Hedging Activities

We do not enter into or hold derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. During December 2015, we terminated our interest rate swap, which we had entered into to eliminate variability in future cash flows by converting LIBOR-based variable-rate interest payments into fixed-rate interest payments. The fair value of our interest rate swap agreement was based on dealer quotes. The change in fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $6,000 was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets.

Inventories

Inventory Disclosure [Abstract]

Inventories

6. INVENTORIES

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using a FIFO inventory method. Inventory is comprised of implants and instruments held for sale, including implants consigned or loaned to customers and agents. The consigned or loaned inventory remains our inventory until we are notified of the implantation. We are required to maintain substantial levels of inventory because it is necessary to maintain all sizes of each component to fill customer orders. The size of the component to be used for a specific patient is typically not known with certainty until the time of surgery, and certain sizes are typically used less frequently than the “standard” sizes. Due to this uncertainty, a minimum of one of each size of each component in the system to be used must be available to each sales representative at the time of surgery, including unusual sizes that will be sold less frequently than “standard” sizes. Although we may conclude that it is more likely than not that all quantities on hand of certain sizes will eventually not be sold, we do not consider such items “excess inventory,” as our business model requires that we maintain such quantities in order to sell the “standard” sizes. As a result of the need to maintain substantial levels of all sizes and components of inventory, we are subject to the risk of inventory obsolescence. In the event that a substantial portion of our inventory becomes obsolete, it would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

An allowance charge for slow moving inventories is recorded based upon an analysis of slow moving inventory items within a product group level. The slow moving inventory allowance is analyzed and calculated based on comparing the current quantity of inventory to historical sales and provides an allowance for any slow moving inventory on a systematic basis, which recognizes the cost of anticipated future obsolescence over the average fifteen year expected life of product groups. We believe this method is appropriate as it recognizes the lack of utility of these items (as a charge to cost of goods sold) over the related product group revenue life cycle. The key inputs to our slow moving allowance are trailing twelve months usage and the expected product life. Due to the nature of slow moving inventory changes in sales patterns from historical trends and future product release schedules, this could impact our allowance analysis. For items that we identify as obsolete, we record a charge to reduce their carrying value to net realizable value. We also maintain an allowance for discrepant inventory to allow for items that are lost or damaged.  Allowance charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were $1.1 million and $3.4 million, respectively. Allowance charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 were $1.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively.

We also test our inventory levels for the amount of inventory that we expect to sell within one year. Due to the scope of products required to support surgeries and the fact that we stock new subsidiaries, add consignment locations, and launch new products, the level of inventory often exceeds the forecasted level of cost of goods sold for the next twelve months. We classify our estimate of such inventory as non-current.

The following table summarizes our classifications of inventory as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015: 

(in thousands)	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015

7. INCOME TAX

At September 30, 2016, net operating loss carry forwards of our foreign and domestic subsidiaries totaled $29 million, some of which begin to expire in 2020. For accounting purposes, the estimated tax effect of these net operating loss carry forwards results in a deferred tax asset.  The deferred tax asset associated with these losses was $8.7 million with a valuation allowance of $4.8 million charged against this deferred tax asset assuming these losses will not be fully realized. At December 31, 2015, these net operating loss carry forwards totaled $27.3 million, and the deferred tax asset was $8.5 million with a valuation allowance of $4.3 million charged against this deferred tax asset assuming these losses will not be fully realized.

Our income tax returns are subject to examination in numerous state, federal and foreign jurisdictions due to the multiple income tax jurisdictions in which we operate. We are not currently aware of any material open examinations in any such jurisdiction. As of September 30, 2016, we had no liability recorded as an uncertain tax benefit.

Commitments And Contingencies

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

There are various claims, lawsuits, and disputes with third parties and pending actions involving various allegations against us incident to the operation of our business, principally product liability cases. While we believe that the various claims are without merit, we are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of such litigation. We therefore maintain insurance, subject to self-insured retention limits, for all such claims, and establish accruals for product liability and other claims based upon our experience with similar past claims, advice of counsel and the best information reasonably available. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $120,000 and $100,000 accrued, respectively, for product liability claims. These product liability claims are subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that they may be resolved unfavorably to us. While it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of the various cases, it is the opinion of management that, upon ultimate resolution, the cases will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Our insurance policies covering product liability claims must be renewed annually. Although we have been able to obtain insurance coverage for product liability claims at a cost and on other terms and conditions that have been acceptable to us, we may not be able to procure acceptable policies in the future.

Purchase Commitments

At September 30, 2016, we had outstanding commitments for the purchase of inventory, raw materials and supplies of $13.5 million and outstanding commitments for the purchase of capital equipment of $5.4 million. Purchases under our distribution agreements were $2.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

In June 2016 we entered into an agreement to pay a total of $5.9 million for the naming of the Exactech Arena at the newly remodeled Stephen C. O’Connell Center, a sports and entertainment complex on the University of Florida’s campus. Payments will be made annually over the term of the agreement. The sponsorship gives us presence at the venue, use of University of Florida facilities and television coverage and commercial spots on Fox Sports Sun and Fox Sports Florida during arena events. The 10-year agreement will become effective December 1, 2016, and contains an option to extend for an additional five years.

Our Taiwanese subsidiary, Exactech Taiwan, entered into a license agreement with the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH) for the rights to technology and patents related to the repair of cartilage lesions. As of September 30, 2016, we have paid approximately $2.1 million for the licenses, patents, and equipment related to this license agreement, and we will make royalty payments when the technology becomes marketable. Using the technology, we plan to launch a cartilage repair program that will include a device and method for the treatment and repair of cartilage in the knee joint. It is expected that the project will require us to complete human clinical trials under the guidance of the Food & Drug Administration in order to obtain pre-market approval for the device in the United States. The agreement terms include a license fee based on the achievement of specific, regulatory milestones and a royalty arrangement based on sales once regulatory clearances are established.

We evaluate our operating segments by our major product lines: extremity implants, knee implants, hip implants, biologics and spine, and other products. The “other products” segment includes miscellaneous sales categories, such as surgical instruments held for sale, bone cement, instrument rental fees, shipping charges, and other implant product lines. Evaluation of the performance of operating segments is based on their respective incomes from operations before taxes, interest income and expense, and nonrecurring items. Intersegment sales and transfers are not significant. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2 of the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Total assets not identified with a specific segment are listed as “corporate” and include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, income taxes receivable, deposits and prepaid expenses, deferred tax assets, land, facilities, office furniture and computer equipment, notes receivable, and other investments. Depreciation and amortization on corporate assets is allocated to the product segments for purposes of evaluating the income (loss) from operations, and capitalized surgical instruments are allocated to the appropriate product line supported by those assets.

Summarized information concerning our reportable segments is shown in the following table (in thousands):

Treasury Stock:

In December 2015, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 1.0 million shares of our common stock over a two-year period. As of September 30, 2016, we had repurchased 163,529 shares of our common stock at an average price of $18.60 per share, or an aggregate of $3.0 million.

Stock-based Compensation Awards:

We sponsor an Executive Incentive Compensation Plan, which provides for the award of stock-based compensation, including options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other stock-based incentive compensation awards to key employees, directors and independent agents and consultants. We implemented a comprehensive, consolidated incentive compensation plan upon shareholder approval at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2009, which was amended and restated at our 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, held on May 8, 2014, to increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the plan by 500,000. We refer to this plan, as amended, as the 2009 Plan. The maximum number of common shares issuable under the 2009 Plan is 1,500,000 plus (a) the number of shares with respect to awards previously granted under our preexisting plans that terminate without being exercised, expire, are forfeited or canceled, plus (b) the number of shares that remain available for future issuance under our preexisting plans plus (c) the number of shares that are surrendered in payment of any awards or any tax withholding with respect thereto. Common stock issued upon exercise of stock options is settled with authorized but unissued shares available. Under the 2009 Plan, the exercise price of option awards equals the market price of our common stock on the date of grant, and each award has a maximum term of ten years. As of September 30, 2016, there were 414,714 total shares remaining issuable under the 2009 Plan.

The aggregate compensation cost charged against income with respect to awards issued under the 2009 Plan and the 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, referred to as the 2009 ESPP, was $1.3 million and $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Income tax benefit on exercises of non-qualified stock options was $0.4 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.  As of September 30, 2016, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards was $1.2 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years.

Stock Options:

A summary of the status of stock option activity under our stock-based compensation plans as of September 30, 2016 and changes during the year to date is presented below:

	2016
	Options			Weighted Avg Exercise Price		Weighted Avg Remaining Contractual Term		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (In thousands)
Outstanding - January 1		1,217,003		$	18.70
Granted		18,500			23.00
Exercised		(142,963	)		16.95			$	664
Forfeited or Expired		(140,086	)		17.66
Outstanding - September 30		952,454		$	19.20		3.53	$	7,453
Exercisable - September 30		530,602		$	18.05		2.78	$	4,766

Outstanding options, consisting of five-year to ten-year incentive and non-qualified stock options, vest and become exercisable ratably over a three to five year period from the date of grant. The outstanding options expire from five to ten years from the date of grant or upon termination of employment with Exactech, and are contingent upon continued employment during the applicable option term. Certain non-qualified stock options are granted to non-employee sales agents and consultants, and they typically vest ratably over a period of three to four years from the date of grant and expire in five years or less from the date of grant, or upon termination of the agent's or consultant’s contract with Exactech.  Stock options for the purchase of 18,500 shares of common stock were granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to stock options for the purchase of 176,125 shares of common stock granted during the same period in 2015.

Restricted Stock Awards:

Under the 2009 Plan, we may grant restricted stock awards to eligible employees, directors, and independent agents and consultants. Restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Committee, at the time of the award. In February 2016, the Committee approved equity compensation to the outside members of the Board of Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. The annual compensation for each outside director consists of the grant of stock awards with an aggregate market value of $77,500, payable in four equal quarterly grants of common stock based on the market prices of our common stock on the respective dates of grant. The summary information of the restricted stock grants for the first nine months of 2016 is presented below:

Grant date	February 29, 2016		May 31, 2016		August 31, 2016
Aggregate shares of restricted stock granted		5,190		3,925		3,485
Grant date fair value	$	97,000	$	97,000	$	97,000
Weighted average fair value per share	$	18.65	$	24.68	$	27.79

During February 2015, the Committee approved equity compensation to the outside members of the Board of Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. The annual compensation for each outside director consisted of the grant of stock awards with an aggregate market value of $77,500, payable in four equal quarterly grants of common stock based on the market prices of our common stock on the respective dates of grant. The summary information of the restricted stock grants for the first nine months of 2015 is presented below:

Grant date	February 27, 2015		May 29, 2015		August 31, 2015
Aggregate shares of restricted stock granted		4,974		4,530		4,940
Grant date fair value	$	116,000	$	97,000	$	97,000
Weighted average fair value per share	$	23.35	$	21.38	$	19.61

All of the restricted stock awards in 2016 and 2015 were fully vested at each of the grant dates. The restricted stock awards require no service period and thus contain no risk of, or provision for, forfeiture.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan:

On February 18, 2009, our Board of Directors adopted the 2009 ESPP, and our shareholders approved the 2009 ESPP at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2009. Under the 2009 ESPP, employees are able to purchase shares of our common stock at a fifteen percent (15%) discount via payroll deduction, up to a maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP of 300,000. In February 2016, our Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the 2009 ESPP to increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP to 450,000, which was approved by our shareholders at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 2, 2016.  There are four offering periods during an annual period.  As of September 30, 2016, 151,430 shares remained available for purchase under the 2009 ESPP. The fair value of the employees' purchase rights is estimated using the Black-Scholes model. Purchase information and fair value assumptions are presented in the following table:

Nine Months Ended September 30,	2016			2015

12. BUSINESS ACQUISITION

Exactech Australia

On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Exactech Australia Pty Ltd, an Australia-based company. Exactech Australia has been our independent importer and distribution partner in Australia for the past four years. The acquisition was accomplished to further the partnership between us and the team at Exactech Australia and to further service customers in the Asia Pacific area.

The aggregate purchase price for Exactech Australia will range from $3.1 million AUD to $7.6 million AUD, of which $1.6 million AUD, or $1.1 million USD at a 0.7034 AUD:USD exchange rate, was paid to the Exactech Australia shareholders in cash at the closing of the acquisition, and the remainder will be paid to such shareholders contingent on the achievement of certain future milestones. We expect the contingent payment to be paid over the next two years. Consideration also included $2.0 million USD in forgiven accounts receivable that were owed to us as of February 1, 2016. We are currently awaiting finalization of Exactech Australia’s closing balance sheet to complete purchase accounting. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using the following assumptions: discount rates of 3.7%, probability levels of milestone range of outcomes, and expected timing of achievement of contingent consideration earn-out amounts. We financed the acquisition from our operating cash flows.

Upon completion of the acquisition, we effectively concluded a pre-existing distribution agreement for the distribution of our products, which was stated at fair value; therefore, we recognized no impact to the statement of income. The accounting for our acquisition of Exactech Australia is preliminary, pending final results of operations and deferred tax liability determination. The preliminary goodwill was determined as the excess of the consideration over the fair value of the net assets acquired, and was due to the synergies we obtained in the extended service in Australia. Goodwill was allocated to the knee, extremity and hip segments based on expected sales for the segments. Pro forma revenue and earnings for the business combination have not been presented because the effects, both individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our results of operations.  

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation and determination of goodwill, which is not deductible for tax purposes, as of February 1, 2016 (in thousands):

	Amounts at Acquisition
Consideration:
Cash	$	1,152
Fair value of contingent consideration		2,435
Total Purchase Price		3,587
Forgiveness of pre-existing debt		2,006

Acquisition related expenses - incurred as of September 30, 2016	$	131
Preliminary identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Deferred tax liability assumed		(161	)
Identifiable intangible assets		535

Goodwill		3,089
Net assets acquired	$	5,593

The identifiable intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method using estimated ten year useful lives, and are recorded net of accumulated amortization in Customer relationships on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Blue Ortho

On January 15, 2015, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Blue Ortho SAS, a France-based company. Blue Ortho is the computer-assisted surgical technology development and manufacturing firm that partnered with the Company to develop the ExactechGPS^® Guided Personalized Surgery system. We acquired Blue Ortho to further the partnership between us and the team at Blue Ortho and expand the development of ExactechGPS to other segments of our portfolio.

The aggregate purchase price for Blue Ortho is a maximum of €10.0 million, of which €2.0 million, or $2.3 million at a 1.16 USD exchange rate at closing, was paid to the Blue Ortho shareholders in cash at the closing of the acquisition, and the remainder will be paid to such shareholders contingent on the achievement of certain future surgical case milestones. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was determined using the following assumptions: discount rates of 4.5-6.5%, probability levels of milestone range of outcomes, and expected timing of achievement of contingent consideration earn-out amounts. We expect the contingent consideration to be paid over the next five to ten years. We financed the acquisition from our operating cash flows.

We acquired tangible assets of $1.5 million, assumed liabilities of $2.9 million, intangible assets, comprising product licenses and designs, of $7.5 million, and goodwill of $6.5 million. Pro forma revenue and earnings for the business combination have not been presented because the effects, both individually and in the aggregate, were not material to our results of operations.  

Contingent Consideration

The following table summarizes the contingent consideration balance and activity for the nine month period ended September 30, 2016 (in thousands):

	Exactech Australia			Blue Ortho			Total
Beginning fair value of contingent liability, December 31, 2015	$	—		$	6,222		$	6,222

Current liability		(1,327	)		(1,764	)		(3,091	)
Non-current liability	$	1,410		$	4,098		$	5,508

Due to our expected timing of earn-out payments, a portion of the contingent consideration is classified in other current liabilities on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The remainder is classified as other non-current liabilities. The change in the contingent consideration during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was recognized as interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.

Schedule of Share-based Compensation, Nonemployee Director Stock Award Plan, Activity

Under the 2009 Plan, we may grant restricted stock awards to eligible employees, directors, and independent agents and consultants. Restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions are determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Committee, at the time of the award. In February 2016, the Committee approved equity compensation to the outside members of the Board of Directors for their service on the Board of Directors. The annual compensation for each outside director consists of the grant of stock awards with an aggregate market value of $77,500, payable in four equal quarterly grants of common stock based on the market prices of our common stock on the respective dates of grant. The summary information of the restricted stock grants for the first nine months of 2016 is presented below:

On February 18, 2009, our Board of Directors adopted the 2009 ESPP, and our shareholders approved the 2009 ESPP at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders on May 7, 2009. Under the 2009 ESPP, employees are able to purchase shares of our common stock at a fifteen percent (15%) discount via payroll deduction, up to a maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP of 300,000. In February 2016, our Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the 2009 ESPP to increase the maximum number of shares issuable under the 2009 ESPP to 450,000, which was approved by our shareholders at our Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 2, 2016.  There are four offering periods during an annual period.  As of September 30, 2016, 151,430 shares remained available for purchase under the 2009 ESPP.
