Enovis CORP (ENOV) Business

Item 1. Business

General

Enovis Corporation (the “Company”, “Enovis”, “we” or “us”) is a medical technology company focused on developing clinically differentiated solutions that generate measurably better patient outcomes and transform workflows by manufacturing, and distributing high-quality medical devices with a broad range of products used for reconstructive surgery, rehabilitation, pain management and physical therapy. Our products address the continuum of patient care from injury prevention to rehabilitation after surgery or injury or from degenerative disease, enabling people to regain or maintain their natural motion. We seek to leverage our Enovis Growth Excellence business system (“EGX”), a set of tools, processes, and culture, to continuously improve our ability to enable great patient outcomes and to drive and fuel growth.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we completed four acquisitions within our Reconstructive segment and three acquisitions within our Prevention & Recovery segment. These small acquisitions added complementary prevention & recovery product offerings, expanded distribution partners for the Company’s surgical implant products in Europe, and added a complementary surgical product technology. See Note 5 “Acquisitions and Divestitures” for further information.

Our business management system, EGX, is integral to our operations. EGX is our culture and incorporates our values and drives our behaviors. EGX consists of a comprehensive set of tools, and repeatable, teachable processes that we use to drive continuous improvement and create superior value for our customers, shareholders and associates. We believe that our management team’s access to, and experience in, the application of the EGX methodology is one of our primary competitive strengths.

Each year, Enovis associates in every business develop strategic and operating plans that are based on the principle of the Voice of the Customer. In these plans, we are clear about our market realities, our threats, our risks, our opportunities and, most importantly, our vision. Our belief is that when we use the tools of EGX to drive the implementation of these plans, we are able to uniquely provide customers with the world-class quality, delivery, cost and innovation they require. We believe that performance ultimately helps our customers and Enovis sustainably grow and succeed.

Reportable Segments

We report our operations through the Prevention & Recovery (“P&R”) and Reconstructive segments (“Recon”). We develop, manufacture and distribute high-quality medical devices and services across the continuum of patient care from injury prevention to joint replacement to rehabilitation after surgery, injury or from degenerative disease, enabling people to regain or maintain their natural motion. We reach a diverse customer base through multiple distribution channels, that include both independent distributors and direct salespeople, and provide a wide range of medical devices and related products to orthopedic specialists and other healthcare professionals operating in a variety of patient treatment settings and to retail consumers.

Prevention & Recovery

Our P&R segment includes products that are used by orthopedic specialists, surgeons, primary care physicians, pain management specialists, physical therapists, podiatrists, chiropractors, athletic trainers and other healthcare professionals to treat patients with musculoskeletal conditions resulting from degenerative diseases, deformities, traumatic events and sports-related injuries. In addition, many of our non-surgical medical devices and related accessories are used by athletes and patients for injury prevention and at-home physical therapy treatment. Our P&R product lines include rigid and soft orthopedic bracing, hot and cold therapy, bone growth stimulators, vascular therapy systems and compression garments, electrical stimulators used for pain management and physical therapy products.

Reconstructive

Our Recon segment is a global medical technology business focused on developing, manufacturing, marketing, and distributing innovative surgical solutions that restore mobility and improve patient outcomes. Our portfolio includes a broad range of differentiated implants, instrumentation, and enabling technologies used in elective and non-elective joint replacement, limb reconstruction, and foot & ankle procedures. We serve orthopedic surgeons and healthcare systems worldwide with products for shoulder, hip, knee, and extremity reconstruction and fixation, including both primary and revision procedures.

4

Our offerings are supported by proprietary surgical techniques, surgeon education, and digital tools that enhance preoperative planning, intraoperative precision, and postoperative recovery. Our strategy is focused on accelerating growth through innovation, expanding market presence in both established and emerging markets, and delivering exceptional clinical and economic value to our customers. Backed by a strong commitment to research and development, surgeon collaboration, and commercial execution, Enovis Reconstructive is positioned as a leading partner in advancing the future of reconstructive surgery.

The following discussion includes information that is common to both of our reportable segments, unless indicated otherwise.

Industry and Competition

Our Prevention & Recovery segment generates approximately 67% of its revenues in the U.S. and the majority of the remaining balance in Europe. The markets in which our Prevention & Recovery segment competes are highly competitive and fragmented. We believe the principal elements of competition are innovation to create better patient outcomes, product quality, product reliability, brand names, and price. Key competitors for our Prevention & Recovery segment include Össur and Breg, Inc.

Our Reconstructive segment generates approximately 48% of its revenues in the U.S. and the majority of the remaining balance in Europe. The markets in which our Reconstructive segment competes are highly competitive and fragmented. We believe the principal elements of competition are innovation to create better patient outcomes, product quality, product reliability, brand names, and price. We compete in the Reconstructive segment with large companies that have significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do, as well as numerous smaller niche companies. Key competitors for our Reconstructive segment include Stryker, Zimmer Biomet, and DePuy Synthes, the medical device business within Johnson & Johnson.

Given our history of innovation and the experience of our management team, we are capable of effectively competing in our markets. The comprehensive range of products we offer enables us to reach a diverse customer base through multiple distribution channels with numerous opportunities to increase our growth across our markets. Our management believes that we are a leading competitor in each of our markets with leading and well-recognized brands.

International Operations

Our principal market for our Prevention & Recovery and Reconstructive segments outside the U.S. is Europe. For the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 42% of our Net sales were derived from operations outside the U.S., the majority of which is in Europe with the remaining portion mostly in the Asia-Pacific region.

Our international operations subject us to certain risks. See Part I. Item 1A. “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business and Operations.”

Research and Development

Our research and development activities vary by operating segment, focusing on innovation; developing new products, software and services, as well as the enhancement of existing products with the latest technology and updated designs; creating new applications for existing products; lowering the cost of manufacturing our existing products; and redesigning existing product lines to increase efficiency, improve durability, enhance performance and usability.

We receive new product and invention ideas from orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare professionals. We seek to obtain rights to ideas we consider promising from a clinical and commercial perspective through entering into either assignment or licensing agreements. We maintain contractual relationships with orthopedic surgeons who assist us in developing our products and may also provide consulting services in connection with our products.

Intellectual Property

We rely on a combination of intellectual property rights, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property both in the U.S. and around the world for both segments. Although we highlight recent additions to our patent portfolio as part of our marketing efforts, we do not consider any one patent or

5

trademark or any group thereof essential to our business as a whole or to any of our business operations. We also rely on proprietary product knowledge and manufacturing processes in our operations. We do not rely solely on our patents and other intellectual property rights to maintain our competitive position. We believe that the development and marketing of new products and improvement of existing ones is, and will continue to be, more important to our competitive position than relying solely on existing products and intellectual property.

Raw Materials

We obtain raw materials, component parts, and supplies from a variety of global sources. Our principal raw materials include foam ethylene-vinyl-acetate copolymer used in our bracing and vascular products within P&R, and cobalt-chromium alloys, stainless-steel alloys, titanium alloys, and ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene used in our Recon surgical implant products. We generally use more than one supplier, which helps to mitigate any risk of shortages or delays in the global supply chain. Tariffs may increase the cost of, and impair sourcing flexibility for raw materials, component parts and supplies, and further trade restrictions, retaliatory trade measures, or additional tariffs could result in higher input costs for our products. Refer to the Risk Factor captioned “We are dependent on the availability of raw materials, as well as parts and components used in our products” for more information on this risk. We believe our sources of raw materials and components are adequate for our needs for the foreseeable future, and the loss of any one supplier would not have a material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.

Seasonality

Our sales typically peak in the fourth quarter; however, general economic conditions and other factors may impact future seasonal variations.

Regulatory Environment

U.S. Food and Drug Administration Regulation

In the United States, our products generally are subject to regulation by the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) as medical devices pursuant to the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act (the “FDCA”). The FDA regulates the development, design, non-clinical and clinical research, manufacturing, safety, efficacy, labeling, packaging, storage, installation, servicing, recordkeeping, premarket clearance or approval, adverse event reporting, advertising, promotion, marketing and distribution, and import and export of medical devices to ensure that medical devices distributed domestically are safe and effective for their intended uses and otherwise meet the requirements of the FDCA.

FDA Premarket Clearance and Approval Requirements

Unless an exemption applies, each medical device commercially distributed in the United States requires either FDA clearance of a 510(k) premarket notification, grant of a de novo application, or approval of a premarket approval (“PMA”). Under the FDCA, medical devices are classified into either Class I, Class II or Class III, depending on the degree of associated risk and the extent of manufacturer and regulatory control needed to ensure safety and effectiveness. Class I includes devices with the lowest patient risk and are those for which safety and effectiveness can be assured by adherence to the FDA’s general controls for medical devices, including compliance with applicable portions of the Quality System Regulation (“QSR”) facility registration and product listing, reporting of adverse medical events, and truthful and non-misleading labeling, advertising, and promotional materials.

Class II devices are subject to the FDA’s General Controls, and special controls as deemed necessary by the FDA to ensure safety and effectiveness. Special controls can include performance standards, post-market surveillance, patient registries and FDA guidance documents. While most Class I devices are exempt from 510(k) premarket notification, most Class II device manufacturers must submit to the FDA a premarket notification under Section 510(k) of the FDCA requesting permission for commercial distribution. Permission for commercial distribution subject to a 510(k) premarket notification is generally known as 510(k) clearance. Devices deemed by the FDA to pose the greatest risks, such as life sustaining, life supporting or some implantable devices, devices that have a new intended use, or that use advanced technology not substantially equivalent to that of a legally marketed device, are placed in Class III, requiring approval of a PMA. Some pre-amendment devices are unclassified but subject to FDA’s premarket notification and clearance process in order to be commercially distributed.

6

510(k) Clearance Marketing Pathway

Many of our current products are subject to premarket notification and clearance. To obtain 510(k) clearance, we must submit to the FDA a premarket notification submission demonstrating that the proposed device is “substantially equivalent” to a predicate marketed device. A predicate device is a legally marketed device not subject to PMA, i.e., that (i) was legally marketed prior to May 28, 1976 (pre-amendments device) and for which a PMA is not required, (ii) has been reclassified from Class III to Class II or I, or (iii) was found substantially equivalent through the 510(k) process. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance process usually takes from three to twelve months, but often takes longer. The FDA may require additional information, including clinical data, to make a determination regarding substantial equivalence. In addition, the FDA collects user fees for certain medical device submissions and annual fees for medical device establishments.

If the FDA agrees that the device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device currently on the market, it will grant 510(k) clearance to commercially market the device. If the FDA determines that the device is “not substantially equivalent” to a previously cleared device, the device is automatically designated as a Class III device. The device sponsor must then fulfill more rigorous PMA requirements, or a risk-based classification determination can be requested for the device in accordance with the “de novo” process, a route to market for novel medical devices that are low to moderate risk and not substantially equivalent to a predicate.

After a device receives 510(k) marketing clearance, any modification that could significantly affect its safety or effectiveness, or that would constitute a major change or modification in its intended use, will require either a new clearance or PMA approval. The FDA requires each manufacturer to determine whether a proposed change requires submission of a 510(k) or a PMA in the first instance, but the FDA can review any such decision and disagree with a manufacturer’s determination. If the FDA disagrees with a manufacturer’s determination, the FDA can require the manufacturer to cease marketing and/or request the recall of the modified device until clearance or PMA approval is obtained. The manufacturer may also be subject to significant regulatory fines or penalties.

De Novo Classification

Devices of a new type that FDA has not previously classified based on risk are automatically classified into Class III, regardless of the level of risk they pose. To avoid requiring PMA review of low- to moderate-risk devices classified in Class III by operation of law, Congress enacted a provision allowing FDA to classify a low- to moderate-risk device not previously classified into Class I or II. After de novo authorization, an authorized device may be used as a predicate for future devices going through the 510(k) process.

PMA Approval Pathway

Class III devices require approval of a PMA before they can be marketed, although some pre-amendment Class III devices for which the FDA has not yet required a PMA are cleared through the 510(k) process. The PMA process is more demanding than the 510(k) process. In a PMA application, the manufacturer must demonstrate that the device is safe and effective, and the PMA application must be supported by extensive data, including data from preclinical studies and human clinical trials. The FDA will approve the device for commercial distribution if it determines that the data and information in the PMA application constitute valid scientific evidence and that there is reasonable assurance that the device is safe and effective for its intended use(s).

Clinical Trials

Clinical trials are almost always required to support a PMA and are sometimes required to support a 510(k) submission. All clinical investigations of devices to determine safety and effectiveness must be conducted in accordance with the FDA’s Investigational Device Exemption (“IDE”) regulations, which govern investigational device labeling, prohibit promotion of the investigational device, and specify an array of recordkeeping, reporting and monitoring responsibilities of study sponsors and study investigators. If the device presents a “significant risk” to human health, the FDA requires the device sponsor to submit an IDE application to the FDA, which must become effective prior to commencing human clinical trials. A significant risk device is one that presents a potential for serious risk to patient health, safety, or welfare and is implanted, used in supporting or sustaining human life, substantially important in diagnosing, curing, mitigating or treating disease or otherwise preventing impairment of human health, or otherwise presents a potential for serious risk to a subject. An IDE application must be supported by appropriate data, such as animal and laboratory test results, showing that it is safe to test the device in humans and that the testing protocol is scientifically sound. An IDE will automatically become effective 30 days after the FDA’s receipt

7

unless the FDA notifies the company that the investigation may not begin. If the FDA finds deficiencies or other concerns with an IDE for which it requires modification, the FDA may permit a clinical trial to proceed under a conditional approval.

During a study, the sponsor must comply with applicable FDA requirements, including, for example, trial monitoring, selecting clinical investigators and providing them with the investigational plan, ensuring Institutional Review Board (“IRB”) review, adverse event reporting, record keeping, and prohibitions on the promotion of investigational devices or on making safety or effectiveness claims for them. The clinical investigators are also subject to FDA regulations and must obtain patient informed consent, rigorously follow the investigational plan and study protocol, control the disposition of the investigational device, and comply with all reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Additionally, after a trial begins, we, the FDA, or the IRB could suspend or terminate a clinical trial at any time for various reasons, including a belief that risks outweigh anticipated benefits.

Post-market Regulation

After a device is cleared or approved for marketing, numerous and pervasive regulatory requirements continue to apply. These include:

•establishment registration and device listing with the FDA;

•QSR requirements, which require manufacturers to follow stringent design, testing, control, documentation and other quality assurance procedures during the design and manufacturing process;

•labeling regulations and FDA prohibitions against the promotion of investigational products, or the promotion of “off-label” uses of cleared or approved products;

•requirements related to promotional activities;

•clearance or approval of product modifications to 510(k)-cleared devices that could significantly affect safety or effectiveness or that would constitute a major change in intended use of cleared devices, or approval of certain modifications to PMA-approved devices;

•medical device reporting regulations, which require that a manufacturer report to the FDA if a device it markets may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury, or has malfunctioned and the device or a similar device that it markets would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or serious injury, if the malfunction were to recur;

•correction, removal and recall reporting regulations, which require that manufacturers report to the FDA field corrections and product recalls or removals if undertaken to reduce a risk to health or to remedy a violation of the FDCA that may present a risk to health;

•the FDA’s recall authority, whereby the agency can order device manufacturers to recall from the market a product that violates governing laws and regulations; and

•post-market surveillance activities and regulations, which apply when deemed by the FDA to be necessary to protect the public health or to provide additional safety and effectiveness data for the device.

Our failure to maintain compliance with FDA regulatory requirements could result in the shut-down of, or restrictions on, our manufacturing operations and the recall or seizure of our products, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

The FDA has broad regulatory compliance and enforcement powers. If the FDA determines that we failed to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, it can take a variety of compliance or enforcement actions, which may result in untitled letters, warning letters, fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties, unanticipated expenditures to address or defend such actions, customer notifications or repair, replacement, refunds, recall, detention or seizure of our products, operating restrictions, partial suspension or total shutdown of production, refusing or delaying our requests for regulatory approvals or clearances of new products or modified products, withdrawing a PMA that has already been granted, refusal to grant export approval for our products, or criminal prosecution.

Regulation of Medical Devices in the EU

In the EU, our products generally are regulated as medical devices. Until May 25, 2021, medical devices were regulated by the Medical Devices Directive (93/42/EEC) (“MDD”) which has been repealed and replaced by Regulation (EU) No 2017/745 (“MDR” or (EU) MDR). Unlike directives, regulations are directly applicable in all EU member states without the need for member states to implement into national law. Most of our current certificates have been granted under the MDD. In accordance with the MDR’s recently extended transitional provisions, both (i) devices lawfully placed on the market pursuant to the MDD prior to May 26, 2021 and (ii) legacy devices lawfully placed on the EU market after May 26, 2021 in accordance with the MDR transitional provisions may generally continue to be made available on the market or put into service, provided that the requirements of the transitional provisions are fulfilled.

8

However, even in this case, economic operators, such as manufacturers, must comply with a number of new or reinforced requirements set forth in the MDR with regard to registration of economic operators and of devices, post-market surveillance and vigilance requirements. Pursuing marketing of medical devices in the EU will require all our devices to be certified under the new regime set forth in the MDR. We are actively working towards obtaining MDR-certification with our notified body.

In the EU, there is currently no premarket government review of medical devices. However, all medical devices placed on the EU market must meet applicable General Safety and Performance Requirements (“GSPRs”), including that the device’s risks to patient condition or safety or to the safety and health of others must not outweigh its benefits. Other GSPRs include requirements that the device must achieve the manufacturer’s intended performance and be designed, manufactured and packaged in a suitable manner, and that the manufacturer must establish, implement, document and maintain a risk management plan. To demonstrate GSPR compliance, manufacturers must undergo a conformity assessment procedure that varies according to the medical device type and its risk classification. These procedures generally require an assessment of available clinical evidence, literature data, and post-market experience in respect of similar marketed products.

For all devices other than low risk devices, a conformity assessment procedure requires the involvement of a notified body to audit and examine technical documentation and the manufacturer’s quality management system. Notified bodies must presume that quality systems which implement the relevant harmonized standards – which is ISO 13485:2016 for Medical Devices Quality Management Systems – conform to these requirements. If satisfied that the product conforms to the relevant GSPR and the company has an MDR-compliant quality management system meeting, the notified body issues an EU certificate of conformity, which the manufacturer uses as a basis for its own declaration of conformity. The manufacturer may then affix the European conformity marking (“CE mark”) to the device, which affirms conformity with applicable requirements and allows the device to be placed on the market throughout the EU.

Throughout the term of the certificate of conformity, the manufacturer will be subject to periodic surveillance audits to verify continued compliance with the applicable requirements. In particular, there will be a new audit by the notified body before it will renew the relevant certificate(s).

Once a device is placed on the market in the EU, strict post-marketing obligations apply, including requirements to maintain post-market surveillance and vigilance systems, to report serious incidents and field safety corrective actions, and to submit periodic safety update reports or post-market surveillance reports.

In particular, serious incidents and Field Safety Corrective Actions (“FSCAs”) must be reported to the relevant authorities of the EU member states. Manufacturers are required to take FSCAs defined as any corrective action for technical or medical reasons to prevent or reduce a risk of a serious incident associated with the use of a medical device that is made available on the market. An FSCA may include the recall, modification, exchange, destruction or retrofitting of the device.

The advertising and promotion of medical devices is subject to some general principles set forth in the EU legislation. According to the MDR, only devices that are CE-marked may be marketed and advertised in the EU in accordance with their intended purpose. Directive 2006/114/EC concerning misleading and comparative advertising and Directive 2005/29/EC on unfair commercial practices, while not specific to the advertising of medical devices, also apply to the advertising thereof and contain general rules, for example, requiring that advertisements are evidenced, balanced and not misleading. Specific requirements are defined at a national level. EU member states’ laws related to the advertising and promotion of medical devices, which vary between jurisdictions, may limit or restrict the advertising and promotion of products to the general public and may impose limitations on promotional activities with healthcare professionals.

In the EU, regulatory authorities have the power to carry out announced and, if necessary, unannounced inspections of companies, as well as suppliers and/or sub-contractors and, where necessary, the facilities of professional users. Failure to comply with regulatory requirements (as applicable) could require time and resources to respond to the regulatory authorities’ observations and to implement corrective and preventive actions, as appropriate. Regulatory authorities have broad compliance and enforcement powers and if such issues cannot be resolved to their satisfaction can take a variety of actions, including untitled or warning letters, fines, consent decrees, injunctions, or civil or criminal penalties.

The aforementioned EU rules are generally applicable in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) which consists of the 27 EU member states plus Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland.

Regulation of Medical Devices in the United Kingdom

Since January 1, 2021, the United Kingdom (“UK”) Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (“MHRA”) has been the sovereign regulatory authority responsible for the medical device market in Great Britain (i.e. England, Wales and Scotland). The regulations on medical devices in Great Britain continue to be based largely on the MDD and Active Implantable Medical Devices Directive (“AIMDD”), which preceded the (EU) MDR, as implemented into national law by the Medical Devices Regulations 2002 (SI 2002 No 618, as amended) (“UK Medical Devices Regulations”). However, under the terms of the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, the (EU) MDR applies to Northern Ireland.

On June 16, 2025, an amendment to the UK Medical Devices Regulations came into force intended to clarify and strengthen the post-market surveillance requirements for medical devices in Great Britain. In addition, the MHRA launched a consultation between November 14, 2024 and January 5, 2025 on proposals to update the pre-market requirements for medical devices in Great Britain. On July 22, 2025, the MHRA published a response to the consultation confirming that it will incorporate the results of this consultation into new UK legislation on pre-market requirements for medical devices in Great Britain. A draft of the new legislation is expected this year. The MHRA has introduced legislation which provides that certain medical devices need to be “UKCA” certified by a UK approved body in order to be lawfully placed on the Great Britain market. However, certain CE marked medical devices may be placed on the Great Britain market along the following timelines:

•general medical devices compliant with the (EU) MDD or (EU) AIMDD with a valid declaration and CE marking can be placed on the Great Britain market up until the sooner of the expiration of the certificate or June 30, 2028; and

•general medical devices, including custom-made devices, compliant with the (EU) MDR can be placed on the Great Britain market up until June 30, 2030.

The MHRA has confirmed that it intends to launch a consultation regarding the indefinite recognition of such medical devices in Great Britain. Medical devices also need to bear a physical UK Conformity Assessment (“UKCA”) mark in order to be lawfully placed on the Great Britain market. However, the MHRA has confirmed in its response to the consultation on pre-market requirements for medical devices in Great Britain that it intends to remove the requirement for a medical device and its labeling (i.e., packaging and instructions for use) in Great Britain to bear a physical UKCA mark. Instead of requiring a medical device and its labeling to bear a UKCA mark, manufacturers will be required to assign a unique design identification (“UDI”) to a medical device and register the UDI in a publicly accessible database before the medical device is placed on the Great Britain market. If this change is implemented, we will no longer be required to affix the physical UKCA mark to our medical devices, but we will need to assign and affix a UDI and register the UDI in a publicly accessible database.

All medical devices must be registered with the MHRA before being placed on the UK market, and must conform to the UK Medical Devices Regulations in order to be registered with the MHRA. In addition, manufacturers based outside the UK will need to appoint a UK Responsible Person to register devices with the MHRA.

Other Healthcare Laws

Third-party Coverage and Reimbursement

Sales of our medical device products depend largely on whether there is coverage and adequate reimbursement by government healthcare programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, and by private payors.

Third-party payors review their coverage policies carefully and can, without notice, reduce or eliminate reimbursement. For instance, they may attempt to control costs by (i) authorizing fewer elective surgical procedures, (ii) requiring the use of the least expensive product available, (iii) reducing the reimbursement for, or limiting the number of, authorized visits for rehabilitation procedures, (iv) bundling reimbursement for all services related to an episode of care, or (v) otherwise restricting coverage or reimbursement of our medical device products or procedures using these products. Further, payors may require additional evidence, beyond the data required for FDA marketing authorization, to demonstrate that a device should be covered for a particular indication or reimbursed at a higher rate than other technologies.

Medicare payment for Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and Supplies (“DMEPOS”) also can be impacted by the DMEPOS competitive bidding program, under which Medicare rates are based on bid amounts for certain products in designated geographic areas, rather than the Medicare fee schedule amount. Only those suppliers selected through the competitive bidding process within each designated competitive bidding area are eligible to have their products reimbursed by Medicare. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services also has adopted regulations to adjust national DMEPOS fee schedules to take into account competitive bidding pricing.

10

Each payor has a unique process for determining whether to cover a device for a particular indication and how to set reimbursement rates for the device. However, because many private payors model their coverage and reimbursement policies on Medicare, other third-party payors’ coverage of, and reimbursement for, our medical device products also could be negatively impacted by legislative, regulatory or other measures that restrict Medicare coverage or reduce Medicare reimbursement.

Additionally, federal and state legislatures and regulators have periodically considered proposals to limit which orthopedic professionals can fit or sell our orthotic products or can seek reimbursement for them. Several states have adopted legislation imposing certification or licensing requirements on the measuring, fitting, and adjusting of certain orthotic devices, and additional states may do so in the future. Some of these state laws do not exempt manufacturers’ representatives. In addition, legislation has been adopted, but not yet implemented, requiring certain certification or licensing for individuals and suppliers furnishing certain custom-fabricated orthotic devices as a condition of Medicare payment. Medicare currently follows state policies in those states that require the use of an orthotist or prosthetist for furnishing of orthotics or prosthetics.

International sales of medical device products also depend in part upon the coverage and eligibility for reimbursement through government-sponsored healthcare payment systems and third-party payors, the amount of reimbursement, and the cost allocation of payments between the patient and government-sponsored healthcare payment systems and third-party payors. Coverage and reimbursement practices vary significantly by country, with certain countries requiring products to undergo a lengthy regulatory review in order to be eligible for third-party coverage and reimbursement. In addition, healthcare cost containment efforts similar to those we face in the United States are prevalent in many of the countries in which our products are sold, and these efforts are expected to continue in the future, possibly resulting in the adoption of more stringent reimbursement standards. In order to obtain reimbursement in some European Economic Area (“EEA”), countries, we may be required to compile additional data comparing the cost-effectiveness of our products to other available therapies. Health Technology Assessment (“HTA”) of both medicinal products and medical devices is becoming an increasingly common part of pricing and reimbursement procedures in some EEA countries. The HTA process, which is currently governed by national laws in each EEA country, is the assessment of therapeutic, economic, and societal impact of a medical product in the country. The outcome of an HTA will often influence pricing and reimbursement status. The extent to which pricing and reimbursement decisions are influenced by the HTA currently varies between EEA countries. However, a new EU HTA regulation applicable to all EEA countries beginning in January 2025 aims to harmonize the clinical benefit assessment of HTA across the EEA and provides the basis for cooperation at the EEA level for joint clinical assessments.

Healthcare Reform

In the United States, there have been and continue to be legislative, regulatory, and other initiatives to contain healthcare costs or establish other policy that have affected and could adversely affect our business. For example, the U.S. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“ACA”), enacted in 2010, was a sweeping measure generally designed to expand access to affordable health insurance, control health care spending, and improve health care quality. Several ACA provisions specifically affect the medical equipment industry. Among other things, the ACA established enhanced Medicare and Medicaid program integrity provisions, including expanded documentation requirements for Medicare DMEPOS orders, more stringent procedures for screening Medicare and Medicaid DMEPOS suppliers, and new disclosure requirements regarding manufacturer payments to physicians and teaching hospitals, along with broader expansion of federal fraud and abuse authorities.

Some of the ACA’s provisions, or its implementing regulations, have been subject to judicial challenges as well as efforts to modify them or alter their interpretation or implementation. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated the tax-based shared responsibility payment imposed by the ACA on certain individuals who fail to maintain qualifying health coverage for all or part of a year. Future efforts to modify or invalidate the ACA or its implementing regulations, or portions thereof, remain possible and could affect our business. We cannot predict what effect further changes related to the ACA would have on our business.

Other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the ACA was enacted. The Budget Control Act of 2011 among other things resulted in aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers of, on average, 2% per fiscal year through the first half of fiscal year 2031 (with the exception of a temporary suspension from May 2020 through March 2022, and a reduction to 1% thereafter through June 2022 due to the COVID-19 pandemic). These cuts could adversely affect payment for any products we may commercialize in the future. Many states have adopted or are considering policies to reduce Medicaid spending as a result of state budgetary shortfalls, which in some cases include reduced reimbursement for DMEPOS items and/or other Medicaid coverage restrictions.

11

Additionally, changes in federal laws, regulations, and guidance can affect state policy. For instance, the 21st Century Cures Act prohibits federal financial participation payments to states for certain Medicaid DME spending that exceeds what Medicare would have paid for such items. Any modification or repeal of any provisions of the ACA, or its implementing regulations, may require states to modify their own laws and regulations. As states continue to face significant financial pressures, it is possible that states will amend existing laws and regulations or enact new laws or promulgate new regulations aimed at controlling costs or otherwise changing applicable policy, any of which could adversely affect our profitability.

Fraud and Abuse Laws

We are subject to various federal, state and foreign laws and regulations pertaining to healthcare fraud and abuse, including false claims, self-referrals, anti-kickback laws, physician payment transparency laws, and other health care laws and regulations. In particular, the promotion, sales, and marketing of health care items and services is subject to extensive laws and regulations designed to prevent fraud, kickbacks, self-dealing and other abusive practices. These laws and regulations may restrict or prohibit a wide range of pricing, discounting, marketing and promotion, sales commission, customer incentive and other business arrangements and include the following:

•The U.S. federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits, among other things, knowingly and willfully offering, paying, soliciting or receiving any remuneration (including any kickback, bribe or rebate), directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind to return for patient referrals or to induce or in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering or arranging for or recommending the purchase, lease or order of any good, facility, item or service reimbursable, in whole or in part, under Medicare, Medicaid or other federal health care programs. The term “remuneration” has been broadly interpreted to include anything of value. Although a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors protect some common activities from prosecution, they are narrow. Practices that may be alleged to be intended to induce purchases or recommendations, including any payments of more than fair market value, may be subject to scrutiny if they do not qualify for an exception or safe harbor. A person or entity does not need to have actual knowledge of this statute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation.

•The U.S. federal civil False Claims Act prohibits, among other things, any person or entity from knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment of federal funds or knowingly making or causing to be made a false statement to improperly avoid, decrease or conceal an obligation to pay money to the federal government. The government may assert that a claim including items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the federal civil False Claims Act. The False Claims Act also permits a private individual acting as a “whistleblower” to bring actions on behalf of themselves and the federal government alleging violations of the statute and to share in any monetary recovery.

•The U.S. civil monetary penalties statute prohibits, among other things, the offer or transfer of remuneration, including waivers of copayments and deductible amounts (or any part thereof), to a Medicare or state healthcare program beneficiary if the person knows or should know it is likely to influence the beneficiary’s selection of a particular provider, practitioner or supplier of services reimbursable by Medicare or a state healthcare program, subject to certain exceptions.

•The U.S. Physician Self-Referral Law, commonly referred to as the Stark law, prohibits physicians from referring patients to receive certain “designated health services” payable by Medicare or Medicaid, including DMEPOS products and supplies, from entities with which the physician or an immediate family member has a financial relationship, unless an exception applies.

•The healthcare fraud provisions under the U.S. federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) impose criminal liability for, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private third-party payors, or to obtain, by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, any money or property owned by, or under the custody or control of, any health care benefit program, including private third-party payors. Similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a violation does not require actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent.

•The U.S. Physician Payments Sunshine Act imposes reporting and disclosure requirements on device manufacturers with respect to ownership and investment interests by physicians and members of their immediate family as well as certain payments or other “transfers of value” made to physicians, certain non-physician practitioners and teaching hospitals.

•State and foreign equivalents of each of the health care laws described above, among others, some of which may be broader in scope including, without limitation, state anti-kickback and false claims laws that may apply to sales or marketing arrangements and claims involving health care items or services reimbursed by non-governmental third party payors, including private insurers, or that apply regardless of payor; state laws that require device companies to comply with the industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines and the relevant compliance guidance promulgated by the federal government; state laws that require device manufacturers to report information related to payments and other transfers of value to physicians and other health care providers, marketing expenditures; and state and local laws requiring the registration of device sales and medical representatives.

Violations of these laws are punishable by criminal and/or civil sanctions, including, in some instances, fines, imprisonment and, within the United States, exclusion from participation in government healthcare programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Veterans Administration health programs. Refer to the Risk Factor captioned “Our relationships with customers, physicians and third-party payors are subject to federal and state health care fraud and abuse laws, false claims laws, physician payment transparency laws and other health care laws and regulations” for a more fulsome discussion of these laws.

Many European countries also have healthcare fraud and abuse laws and regulations, which may vary greatly among countries. For example, the advertising and promotion of our products is subject to EU Directives concerning misleading and comparative advertising and unfair commercial practices, as well as other EU Member State legislation governing the advertising and promotion of medical devices. In the EU, failure to comply with advertising and promotional laws may result in reputational damage, fines, exclusions from public tenders and actions for damages from competitors for unfair competition.

Data Privacy and Security Laws

Our business is subject to U.S. federal privacy and security laws and regulations. HIPAA governs the use, disclosure, and security of protected health information (“PHI”) by HIPAA “covered entities” and their “business associates.” Covered entities are health plans, health care clearinghouses and health care providers that engage in specific types of electronic transactions. A business associate is any person or entity (other than members of a covered entity’s workforce) that performs a service for or on behalf of a covered entity that involve creating, receiving, maintaining or transmitting PHI. Healthcare providers that prescribe our products and from which we obtain patient health information are subject to privacy and security requirements under HIPAA, as are we in certain circumstances. Further, various states, such as California and Massachusetts, have implemented similar privacy laws and regulations that impose restrictive requirements regulating the use and disclosure of health information and other personally identifiable information. These laws and regulations are not necessarily preempted by HIPAA, particularly if a state affords greater protection to individuals than HIPAA. If the states in which we conduct our business are more protective, we may have to comply with the stricter provisions.

The legislative and regulatory landscape for privacy and data security continues to evolve, and there has been an increasing focus on privacy and data security issues with the potential to affect our business. For example, the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CCPA”), contains disclosure obligations for businesses that collect personal information about California residents and affords those individuals new rights relating to their personal information that may affect our ability to use personal information. Failure to comply with the CCPA may result in, among other things, significant civil penalties and injunctive relief or statutory or actual damages. In addition, California residents have the right to bring a private right of action in connection with certain types of data security incidents. These claims may result in significant liability and potential damages. We have implemented processes to manage compliance with the CCPA. Other states have enacted similar privacy laws that impose new obligations and limitations in areas affecting our business and we continue to assess the impact of these state laws, on our business as additional information and guidance becomes available. Efforts at the federal level to enact similar laws are ongoing.

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) also sets expectations for failing to take appropriate steps to keep consumers’ personal information secure, or failing to provide a level of security commensurate to promises made to individual about the security of their personal information (such as in a privacy notice) may constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in violation of Section 5(a) of the Federal Trade Commission Act (the “FTC Act”). The FTC expects a company’s data security measures to be reasonable and appropriate in light of the sensitivity and volume of consumer information it holds, the size and complexity of its business, and the cost of available tools to improve security and reduce vulnerabilities. The FTC regards individually identifiable health information as sensitive data that merits stronger safeguards. With respect to privacy, the FTC also sets expectations that companies honor the privacy promises made to individuals about how the company handles

consumers’ personal information; failure to honor promises, such as the statements made in a privacy policy or on a website, may also constitute unfair or deceptive acts or practices in violation of the FTC Act.

We also operate in a number of foreign countries with laws in some cases more stringent than U.S. requirements. EEA regulation of the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data includes the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the E-Privacy Directive 2002/58/EC (the “E-Privacy Directive”) and national laws implementing each. The GDPR imposes strict obligations and restrictions on the ability to collect, analyze and transfer personal data, especially sensitive personal data, such as health data from clinical investigations, and safety reporting. We process employee and customer data, including health and medical information.

The GDPR was retained in the UK post-Brexit as the UK GDPR. Many EEA countries have also transposed the E-Privacy Directive’s requirements and passed legislation addressing areas where the GDPR permits countries to derogate from the GDPR, leading to divergent requirements in spite of the GDPR’s stated goal of EEA-wide uniformity.

In order to process and transfer data, explicit consent to the processing (including any cross-border transfer) may be required from the person to whom the personal data relates, though in certain cases, and depending on the jurisdiction in which the data originate or are processed, such data may be processed absent explicit consent for purposes of medical diagnosis, the interest of public health (including medical device safety and efficacy) or scientific research. The same rules currently apply to us in the UK under the UK GDPR and in relation to transfers out of the UK. We continue to assess ongoing reform efforts for changes. In particular, we expect the European Commission approval of the current EU-US Data Privacy Framework for data transfers to certified entities in the United States to be challenged and international transfers to the United States and to other jurisdictions more generally to continue to be subject to enhanced scrutiny by regulators.

We depend on third parties in relation to provision of our services, a number of which process personal data on our behalf. We have a practice of entering into contractual arrangements with such third parties to ensure that they process personal data only according to our instructions, and that they have instituted adequate security measures. Where personal data is being transferred outside the EEA (or the UK), our policy is that it is done so in compliance with applicable data export requirements. Any failure by us or third parties to follow these policies or practices, or otherwise comply with applicable data laws, could lead to a security or privacy breach, regulatory enforcement, or regulatory or financial harm.

Human Capital Management

As of December 31, 2025, we employed approximately 7,802 persons, of whom approximately 2,107 were employed in the United States and approximately 5,695 were employed outside of the United States. None of our associates are covered by collective bargaining agreements with U.S. trade unions. Approximately 23.5% of our associates are represented by foreign trade unions and work councils in Europe, Africa, and Australia, which could subject us to arrangements very similar to collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced any work stoppages or strikes that have had a material adverse impact on operations. We consider our relations with our associates to be good.

At Enovis, we believe that the best team wins. Our growth model is focused in part on acquiring good companies, empowering our talent and using EGX to make them great. Culture and associate development are critical to our success. We are a diverse team of associates around the world. We empower our associates through our culture that is centered on our corporate purpose – “Creating Better Together,” which means we are committed to attracting and developing great talent and rewarding our associates to build and sustain our company. Our internal human capital management programs center on the following processes and objectives: (i) identifying, attracting, developing and enabling talent, (ii) promoting associate engagement and an open feedback culture to foster continuous improvement, (iii) offering competitive compensation and benefit programs to motivate associates and reward performance, and (iv) protecting the health and safety of all of our associates across the world.
