Item 7.01 Financial Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 15, 2022, CONMED Corporation (the "Company") issued a press release withdrawing its full year 2022 financial outlook as a result of the temporary disruption from a software implementation. The Company also provided its 2023 financial outlook. A copy of this press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

On November 15, 2022, Curt R. Hartman, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, and Todd W. Garner, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, plan to appear at the Stifel 2022 Healthcare Conference to discuss the Company's objectives, strategy and recent events, including the issues discussed in the press release. A copy of the Company's updated investor presentation is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2.




Item 8.01 Other Events.

In October 2022, the Company implemented new warehouse software, which caused service level disruptions that impacted the Company's ability to ship certain quantities of finished goods to customers. Although the Company believes that the impact to sales, if any, will be limited to the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company cannot provide assurances that the resolution of service level and shipping disruptions will fully recover these sales in the fourth quarter of 2022 and/or that the warehouse management software implementation will not disrupt the Company's operations and its ability to fulfill customer orders. Also, these disruptions have caused the Company to incur other costs and expenses in connection with the resolution of the service level and shipping disruptions. To the extent that these disruptions recur and/or persist over time, this could negatively impact the Company's competitive position and its relationships with its customers and thus could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K that is furnished under "Item 7.01. Financial Regulation FD Disclosure" and Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Act of 1934, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
