(“OrthoPediatrics” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: KIDS), a company focused exclusively on advancing the field of pediatric orthopedics, today announced the expansion of its OrthoPediatrics Specialty Bracing (“OPSB”) division with multiple new clinics and entry into two new territories. The expansion of the OPSB division includes rapid expansion of greenfield clinic locations in California, Ohio, and Colorado. • Entered a new territory with OPSB’s first clinic in California. The Los Angeles market provides access to millions of potential pediatric and adolescent patients. • Opened a new clinic in Dayton, OH, providing skilled clinicians within Dayton Children’s Hospital and expanding the Ohio territory. • Added new clinics and experienced clinicians to cover the expansive Denver, CO territory. OPSB continues to expand through Acquihire opportunities by adding two new operations in New York and Ireland. • The greater New York City operation added multiple patient locations to the existing two clinics; all new clinics are located within major Children’s Hospital centers. This strategic position will allow a seamless synergy between the clinicians and pediatric surgeons. • Ireland represents both a new territory and OPSB’s first international market. This location is complimentary to OrthoPediatrics’ strong implant business presence in one of the country’s largest pediatric hospitals and provides opportunities to expand to additional Ireland based clinics and beyond across the European region. Joe Hauser, OrthoPediatrics Specialty Bracing division President, commented, “We are thrilled to announce this continued expansion as we are slightly ahead of our planned entry into 4 new target markets in 2025. Our vision to provide better bracing and O&P care to kids across the world is materializing by providing access to millions of potential new patients. I continue to be impressed by the response from surgeons, partnering hospitals, O&P clinicians, and parents, we are clearly filling an unmet need. Our impressive clinical team continues to grow, adding new team members while they increase their knowledge in the pediatric and adolescent space”. Michael C. Albert MD, Division Chief of Pediatric Orthopedics at Dayton Children’s Hospital shared in the excitement, “OrthoPediatrics has always been dedicated to the needs of children and this next step forward, focusing on bracing and O&P care, advances this mission. Their dedication to this space and expanding patient access is key. Partnering with OPSB to bring O&P care on-site will greatly benefit all our patients and our community.
