Zimmer Biomet terminates agreement for multiple orthopedic product segments – trauma agreement remains in effect

Zimmer Biomet has informed Bactiguard that they terminate the license agreement signed in 2022 covering multiple orthopedic product segments. The reason stated is the more complex and lengthier path with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) than initially expected by Zimmer Biomet.

There will be no negative financial impact for Bactiguard for 2024 related to this termination. Bactiguard is in dialogue with the team at Zimmer Biomet to evaluate further details and the impact of the termination and will revert with more information once available.

The partnership with Zimmer Biomet within the trauma product segment, related to the agreement signed in 2019, remains in effect.
