In July 2026, we completed the divestiture of iovera°, a handheld cryoanalgesia device that delivers immediate, long-acting, drug-free pain control using precise, controlled doses of cold temperature to a targeted nerve, to Zimmer, Inc., a subsidiary of Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. (“Zimmer”). For m…
•In June 2026, we entered into a Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement with Zimmer to divest iovera° for up to $140.0 million, including an upfront payment of $70.0 million and potential contingent consideration of up to an additional $70.0 million in the aggregate, payable upon the achievement of reve…
We believe this transaction advances our transition into an innovative biopharmaceutical company and aligns with our 5x30 strategy and that Zimmer’s global scale, established expertise commercializing medical devices and commitment to significantly expanding access can unlock the full potential of i…

•In March 2026, we announced findings from two real-world studies evaluating the economic benefits of EXPAREL in orthopedic procedures, including total knee arthroplasty, or TKA, and spinal fusion. In both studies, EXPAREL was associated with lower total cost of care compared with ropivacaine in one…
The analyses include two propensity score-matched cohort studies evaluating outcomes on surgery day and throughout 30 days of follow-up in commercial and Medicare Advantage populations. Across both studies, EXPAREL was associated with lower total costs and reductions in select healthcare resource ut…
•In April 2026, we presented three real-world studies supporting the economic value of EXPAREL in total hip arthroplasty, or THA, and TKA procedures performed in hospital outpatient department, or HOPD, setting at the Academy of Managed Care Pharmacy Annual 2026 Meeting in Nashville, Tennessee.

• In one study, the use of EXPAREL for THA in HOPDs was associated with lower total healthcare costs over three and six months of post-surgical follow-up.
o More pronounced cost savings for patients with lower back pain as well as reduced opioid usage compared to patients who did not receive liposomal bupivacaine were also observed.

We may not realize the anticipated benefits of the divestiture of iovera°.
We may continue to incur costs or liabilities related to the divestiture of iovera°, including, among other things, obligations under a transition services agreement, indemnification provisions or other contractual commitments. The divestiture of iovera° also may divert management attention, result …

The achievement of the applicable milestones depends on numerous factors outside of our control, including, among other thin…

How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
