Globus Medical drove double-digit spine growth in 2Q19 while acquiring StelKast to enter the joint replacement market in 2020 via new robotic applications.
- Acquired knee and hip implant manufacturer StelKast to leverage upcoming total joint applications for ExcelsiusGPS with an anticipated launch of late 2020
- Leadership added $5MM to 2019 revenue guidance to account for the acquisition
- Implant sales grew 12.2% but were offset somewhat by a corresponding double-digit decrease in sales revenue from ExcelsiusGPS placements
- Continuing momentum for spine sales in the U.S. was augmented by strong performances in Japan, Spain, Italy and the U.K.
- Leadership expects a slight deceleration in the second half due to the abatement of pent-up distributor demand
- Launched the SI-LOK SELECT and a system for SI joint fusions within the quarter
- The company is on track to launch an interbody module for ExcelsiusGPS and a spine deformity product in early 4Q
- Launched the AUTOBAHN Tibial Nail and Femoral Nail systems for the growing trauma business
“We made this acquisition to get a product with a safety profile and history from which we can build and
modify and build into the robotic platform. So, the acquisition is obviously more about the
product and the foundation of a larger platform versus anything related to sales.”Â
– Globus Medical CFO Dan Scavilla on the acquisition of StelKast
