Alphatec Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:ATEC) Q4 2022 Earnings Call Transcript

And so we are totally bullish that we have a great solution from a PTP perspective, a great solution from an LTP perspective. And we think the momentum is really — it’s a pregame reflection, because we have a lot to build on both fronts. And clearly, I think the dynamics and the marketplace is going to avail people the opportunity to give us an evaluation where maybe in past times they may not have.

Operator: The next question comes from the line of Sean Lee with H.C. Wainwright.

Sean Lee : So over the last couple of quarters, you have mentioned the potential to expand internationally as well the avenues you’re looking to grow. So I was wondering whether we would be seeing more of that this year? And if so, would you still be leading with EOS or would you be going for lateral as the main focus there in that arena as well?

Pat Miles: The one thing that we’re excited about is our international team. And there’s a guy internally here, Chris Lyons, who started to assemble what is an outstanding team in Australia and New Zealand, and we’re in the process of figuring out what to do in Japan. And so the Australia team will lead with our lateral kind of sophistication, they’re steeped in a lateral experience. And so I like our chances in terms of building the foundation of a business. And I think as we start to translate, there’s like 30 EOS is in Australia, so it has a nice foundation from which to build. And so I think just the ability to translate that down there is also an exciting place for us. And then clearly, Japan is a place that we are hugely enthusiastic about.

And so we will continue to be very narrow and deep in these markets. But I think so much of the future is about what the team looks like and we’re very bullish in terms of the team that we’ve assembled in our international business.

Todd Koning: And Sean, when we kind of talked about narrow and deep, I think it does reflect our commitment to bringing the lateral sophistication to the international markets. And so that is definitely how we plan to ultimately serve our patients and customers that.

Operator: There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call back over to Pat Miles for closing remarks.

Pat Miles: Thanks very much, Angela. And thanks, everybody for your interest in ATEC. We are just beginning and so clearly a lot of growth this year but our best days are yet ahead. And we appreciate everyone’s interest in ATEC. Thanks much.

Operator: This concludes today’s call. You may now disconnect.
