Year-1 growth is against LTM at announcement ($157M revenue, $22.9M EBITDA); later years are year over year.

Company management prepared standalone projections for calendar years 2019 through 2022, assuming annual revenue growth of 14% in 2019 and 10% in each of 2020-2022, capex of $3.0 million annually beginning 2020, and 5% annual compensation expense growth. Net revenue was projected to grow from $157.4 million in 2019E to $209.2 million in 2022E, with EBITDA of $22.9 million in 2019E ($26.2 million Adjusted EBITDA) rising to $36.9 million in 2022E, and free cash flow of $23.8 million in 2019E to $33.9 million in 2022E. These projections were provided to the Board, Smith & Nephew and Cantor Fitzgerald and used in Cantor Fitzgerald's DCF analysis.

Process notes

Cantor Fitzgerald was engaged solely to render the fairness opinion to the Board; it did not solicit third-party interest and did not participate in negotiating the transaction terms. Opinion excluded the 'Specified Holders' (Smith & Nephew, Parent, Purchaser and Chairman/co-founder Peter Friedli and their affiliates). Friedli, who beneficially owned ~30% of shares outstanding directly (14.8 million shares beneficially), signed a tender and support agreement and is expected to receive a two-year, $250,000/year consulting arrangement post-closing. Negotiations over a 'go shop' provision were dropped; the parties agreed to a termination fee of 2.8% of fully diluted equity value. The filing did not disclose Cantor Fitzgerald's fee amounts in the sliced sections (referenced to Item 5).
