Now I'll turn the call over to Tony. Well, thanks, Dave, good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for your continued interest in Bioventus. Let me begin by saying that I'm thrilled to be back leading Bioventus and its talented team. Before discussing the quarter's performance, I wanna take a few minutes to discuss my perspective on our business since returning and to lay out our priorities for the remainder of the year. Over the past month, I've had the opportunity to reconnect with employees from across the company, meet new members of the Bioventus team who joined since my retirement in 2020, and to understand their perspective on our business. Despite the near-term challenges, I am confident in the revenue and earnings growth opportunities and our ability to reduce leverage as we move forward. Across our business, we participate in large growing markets and provide innovative, differentiated products for our patients. Most importantly, we have a dedicated team of employees who truly understand our current challenges and are focused on execution, delivering on our commitments, and enhancing our business. My role is to stabilize the team, to build on the positive elements of our profitable growth plan, and then quickly focus on action plans to address issues that are impacting our profitability and predictability. In returning as CEO, my leadership team and I are prioritizing the here and now and look to aggressively address the issues impacting our recent performance. Our attention will be on ensuring we deliver not just growth, but profitable growth, and we have a laser-like focus on remaining compliant with covenants of our amended bank loan and driving down leverage. While we will not reverse all the headwinds of the past year in a single quarter, we believe we will, over the course of the next several quarters, rebuild our balance sheet and look to regain credibility with our investors. Over the remainder of 2023, we'll prioritize the following strategic areas. First, dissecting the impact of the recent headwinds in our HA franchise and executing the necessary actions to improve our business and predictability. Second, continuing to evaluate the divestiture of non-core assets after closing the divestiture of our wound franchise. Third, examining opportunities to increase profitability, improve operating efficiency and controls throughout our business. Let me provide further context on these three areas before reviewing our recent quarter. First, due to the recent increase in procedural volume through private payer contracts in our HA franchise, we've initiated a strategic review to assess potential changes to bolster profitability. It's important to highlight that most of the increased volume has resulted from one private payer, and we continue to partner with them to understand the changes impacting us in recent quarters and to improve the quality of their invoicing. In addition, we would expect to see smaller impact on the future results given the renegotiated rebate rates that began in the Q3 and lower pricing on which the rebates are based. These aspects will reduce uncertainty, but we must evaluate additional steps that we can further improve our HA franchise. Working with an external consultant, we expect to conduct our evaluation over the next few months and provide an update on our Q2 earnings call as we assess the impact of increased sales volume coming through private payer contracts. Second, we are encouraged by last week's announcement regarding the strategic divestiture of our wound business, which simplifies our business and allows management to focus additional attention on the remaining areas of our portfolio. The divestiture of our wound franchise also improves our liquidity and delevers our balance sheet. At closing, we expect to receive, after fees, approximately $30 million, which we plan to use to repay debt. This debt repayment will remove the need to pay quarterly amortization on our term loan for the next three quarters and potentially additional quarters with the proceeds from the potential sales milestones. While the boo-wound divestiture is a positive step, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to further strengthen our balance sheet through additional divestiture of non-core assets. Our prioritization and investment emphasis will be placed on the areas of the business where we can strategically win. We will remain disciplined in any negotiation for areas that we define as non-core, and we'll only consider divesting assets which simplify our business and we believe at an attractive value. The third focus area involves exploring opportunities to increase profitability and improve operating efficiency and controls throughout our business. At the start of the year, we began work across select areas of our business where inefficiencies arose due to our recent acquisitions and employee turnover. We're beginning to make some steady progress in addressing these operational inefficiencies, but additional work will be required throughout the year. Those efforts should drive improved working capital performance, enable us to find potential cost savings, and enhance our back-office processes and internal controls. We continue to expect to complete the integration of Misonix by the end of the year with the move of the manufacturing to our new facility in Memphis. Let me turn to our Q1 results. For the quarter, revenues of $119 million increased 2% compared to the same period a year ago, which was in line with the commentary Mark laid out on our last quarterly earnings call. More importantly, our adjusted EBITDA increased to $17 million compared to $7 million in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was above our expectations due to disciplined control of our expenses. Across Pain Treatments, we continue to be impacted by the rise in volume related to private payer contracts for hyaluronic acid. The impact of this shift required us to increase a tool rate for HA sales, but strong volume growth helped to mitigate the headwinds. Once again, DUROLANE was less impacted given its clinical differentiation. Consistent with our message last quarter, we anticipate price erosion to subside as we progress through 2023. Meanwhile, across our HA portfolio, we believe market growth, combined with an increase in share from lower selling price, will drive volume growth. We expect overall reduction in HA revenue of high single- to low double-digits due to the impact of lower selling price. We do expect by the Q4 of this year and the Q1 of next year to begin to see turnaround and improved HA revenue growth driven by price stabilization and volume growth. Now turning to Surgical Solutions. For the quarter, we continued to deliver strong double-digit organic growth. Growth across bone graft substitutes was once again driven by OSTEOAMP Flowable. Additionally, our Ultrasonics portfolio grew high single digits. Looking ahead to the Q2, we expect some slowdown in our bone graft substitute portfolio due to increased customer churn. Recent large account wins are anticipated to offset these losses as we move into the second half of the year. While overall growth will likely be lower in the current quarter, we forecast that our double-digit organic growth will continue for the full year. Our overall smaller market share and our market growth rates provide a strong backdrop for continued market penetration and growth across both Ultrasonics and bone graft substitutes. Within Restorative Therapies, organic revenue grew double-digits, driven by Advanced Rehabilitation. Revenue growth partially benefit from the recovery associated with supply chain disruptions and regulatory approval challenges experienced in the Q4. EXOGEN revenue was similar to prior year and reflects the improving trend we're experiencing across the business as we continue to reengage physicians after our sales force realignment at the start of 2022. When excluding our recently divested wound portfolio, growth across EXOGEN and Advanced Rehabilitation was approximately 300 basis points higher than the total Restorative Therapies vertical. We expect growth in Advanced Rehabilitation combined with stability for EXOGEN will drive overall mid-single-digit growth for our entire Restorative Therapies portfolio. Our international segment grew 14%. Constant currency growth was 18%. Growth was driven by our recovery in Advanced Rehabilitation from the EU MDR-related regulatory headwinds as well as strong growth in DUROLANE and bone graft substitutes. We anticipate maintaining double-digit growth in our international segment as we proceed through the year. Let me repeat how excited I am to be leading Bioventus again. I'm confident in our team's ability to address our immediate challenges and move the business forward. We are aggressively prioritizing those areas most meaningful in driving increased profitability and margins, improving our balance sheet, and enhancing our operational efficiencies as we work to restore your confidence in Bioventus. Now let me turn the call over to Mark. Thanks, Tony. Good afternoon, everyone. Let me start by saying that I am pleased with our ability to reduce costs this quarter as we center our attention on improving our operating margins and driving profitable growth. Revenue for the Q1 was $119 million, which was 2% higher compared to the prior year. On a constant currency basis, sales were up 2% compared to the prior year. Higher revenue and lower operating expenses related to our restructuring, combined with spending discipline, increased our profitability as we generated adjusted EBITDA of $17 million. Across Pain Treatments, sales declined 11% compared to the prior year as we face continued pricing pressure due to the move from WAC to ASP in our HA portfolio, along with the increased percentage of volume related to private payer contracts. Revenue for our largest HA therapy, DUROLANE, was similar to last year as volume growth offset reductions in selling price. Meanwhile, we experienced continued pricing pressure across GELSYN-3, but for the first time since the Q2 of last year, we saw an increase in volume. Helping to offset pricing headwinds was volume growth in SUPARTZ FX. In Surgical Solutions, we grew 12%, representing four consecutive quarters of double-digit growth as we maintain momentum across both our bone graft substitutes and Ultrasonics portfolios. We continue to expect double-digit growth for the full year, but as Tony stated earlier, results for the Q2 are expected to be below recent performance. Finally, Restorative Therapies delivered 11% growth, driven by double-digit growth in our Advanced Rehabilitation portfolio. Additionally, EXOGEN sales grew domestically mid-single digits as we continue to regain momentum. Overall, we expect mid-single-digit growth across our Restorative Therapies vertical. Moving down the income statement, adjusted gross margin of 74% was down 190 basis points compared to the prior year and was driven by two primary factors. First, we were impacted by the increased percentage of HA revenue going through private payers and the decline in our overall ASP. Second, we had unfavorable product mix given higher revenue from our Advanced Rehabilitation portfolio. Overall, adjusted total operating expenses were $12 million lower compared to the prior year. The reduction in expense resulted from benefits of our restructuring, combined with spending discipline across general and administrative expenses and reduced investment in research and development. Turning to our bottom-line financial metrics. Adjusted EBITDA totaled $17 million compared to $7 million in the prior year. Increased revenue and lower operating expenses more than offset a decline in gross margin. Adjusted Operating Income increased to $14 million from $2 million in the prior year. Adjusted net loss totaled $16 million compared to the income of $3 million a year ago. The loss for the quarter was driven by the establishment of a non-cash valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset, resulting from the impairment of intangible assets associated with the wound divestiture. The impact of the valuation allowance lowered income by $31 million. Adjusted loss per share was -$0.26 for the quarter. The valuation allowance unfavorably impacted earnings by $0.49 for the quarter. Now turning to the balance sheet and cash flow statement. We ended the quarter with $47 million of cash on hand and $446 million of debt outstanding. We had $29 million drawn on a revolving credit facility at the end of the Q1, which boosted our cash on hand at the end of the quarter. In the first week of April, we repaid an additional $15 million of our revolver draw. The resulting draw on our revolver of $14 million is related primarily to our $10 million payment to exit the CartiHeal acquisition. Operating Cash fFow represented an inflow of $2 million for the quarter as we saw an improvement in working capital. As we mentioned last quarter, we improved our liquidity position by eliminating the entire $350 million of deferred purchase obligations and sales milestones related to CartiHeal. In addition, we worked with our banking partners to amend our debt agreement to provide additional headroom with our covenants. Our adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was ahead of our expectations. Thus, we remain well within compliance with our leverage and interest coverage covenants at the end of the Q1. Finally, due to the timing of last week's wound divestiture, Tony recently being named interim CEO and wanting to receive additional confirmatory invoices related to our HA business, we are again delaying our 2023 sales and earnings guidance until the impact of these can be firmly quantified. With that being said, we expect to achieve at least $68 million in EBITDA for the year and to remain compliant with our debt covenants throughout the year. In closing, we remain focused on enhancing our liquidity and continuing to improve our financial performance through increased revenue, higher operating margin, and disciplined expense management. Operator, please open the line for questions. Thank you. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then one on your telephone keypad. If you're using a speakerphone, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw your question, please press star then two. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. The first question will be from Alex Nowak from Craig-Hallum Capital Group. Please go ahead. Okay, great. Good afternoon, everyone. you know, Tony, thanks for joining us here. You know, Tony, when you look back at, you know, what happened from your retirement to now, can you kind of just recap here from the, from more of the board perspective, you know, what went wrong? You know, once these fix are implemented, how do we prevent these challenges from happening again with the Bioventus story? Hey, Alex, thanks for your question. As I said, I'm excited and delighted to have joined the company after my six-year term here at Bioventus and then about a three-year retirement. You know, let me take it from this perspective. You know, I think of when I look at where we are, and I think of business as, you know, sort of people, products, and processes. Let's talk about the here and now and where we go forward. I'll touch a little bit on how we got here. First of all, you know, since I've arrived here, I've been able to assess the people are really in a good place. You know, very forward-facing, very committed to building on what's working, very focused on correcting what's not working. This is a team that's not, you know, down from its, from some tough periods of time, but again, very forward-focused. I was very pleasantly, well, I won't say surprised, but pleased with what I see in the people in the team. I look at the products. I mean, we had, you know, 70% of the revenue of the company were products that were here when I was the CEO, and there are many new things. The great news about the products is these are truly differentiated products, in many cases, leadership positions, top one or two positions in their markets. You know, in this, in this marketplace, that gives you a fantastic foundation to build on. You got people who know what they're doing and are in the right place, and you got some terrific products. The thing that got us was process. I think that, you know, all that we did in the acquisitions and maybe the IPO collectively overwhelmed the processes of the company. You know, that's the category that we've got to focus most of our time and energy. But having the first two in place gives me great confidence that we got something to build on here. You know, you've heard the conversation about processes up to now. I think you've seen, you know, some of the surprises, and you've seen some of the things that are working behind the scenes. I think that there are many projects underway right now to focus on improving process. I think as we do those things, we'll get ourselves out of this. You know, the learning is, you know, taking on too much at once without really understanding maybe all the aspects of the impact of those things, just overwhelmed the organization. It's fixable. No, I appreciate that. Maybe digging a little bit deeper into the business. I think what I'm trying to figure out on the HA side of it, are the headwinds getting worse? I mean, it looks like the growth decline wasn't as bad as the prior quarters, but it does now sound like the stabilization gets pushed out to really Q1 2024, if I heard you correctly. Well, I think what we're describing is we're going to start to see positive movement in the Q4 of this year. That's, you know, that's becoming clear. Look, I look at the HA story, some very, very difficult times are behind us. That said, there are still dark clouds that we're working our way through, but I think the hard part of the storm is over. These dark clouds are the things we still need to work through, I think, you know, Mark outlined it. I think we got a better handle on what exactly that's going to look like in terms of the impact of pricing. Underlying volume growth has been still been positive, we feel good about that. I think we know what the end of this looks like, and I think underlying the HA business is a good business. On the bone graft substitute side, you know, customer churn there, that business has been really strong throughout all these other challenges in the other segments. Are we starting to see maybe some cracks start to form there? Maybe expand on that customer churn that you mentioned in Q2. No, thanks. I think the key element there was, you know, there is a certain turnover of distributors that occur naturally in this business. We probably got a little bit behind in bringing new distributors on. Good news is we're feeling that turning very positive now. We're bringing, you know, you lose some distributors, you bring new distributors on to keep that business moving forward. We had a little bit of a gap, and we're filling that gap now. I think that what you heard in the comments is really where we stand, and that is we'll come through with maybe a little bit of a softness in Q2. That's still the fallout of that slowness in getting new distributors on. Now we've got a handle on that, and we'll go forward. Not a fundamental problem with the business. Okay, got it. Appreciate the update. Thank you. You bet. Again, if you have a question, please press star then one. The next question is from Robbie Marcus from JP Morgan. Please go ahead. Hi, thanks. This is actually Alan on for Robbie. You know, you touched upon how the wound divestiture, you know, seems like a step in the right direction, but you really talked about, you know, potentially further rationalizing the portfolio. When I think about, you know, the kinds of assets that you might be looking to either sell or spin, what kind of metrics are you really looking at? What would really make a business one that really belongs at Bioventus and one that could maybe do better somewhere else? Yeah, thanks, Alan. Let me take it first. Tony here. You know, I think as we've been scrubbing through this, and this is a process that began before I arrived, a lot of good work was done to really take a hard look at where we are. For me, you know, we're going to be driven by where can we properly invest to achieve long-term sustainable growth and potential market leadership? You know, that's the criteria that we're kind of overlaying on this. You know, ability to achieve long-term sustainable growth. Can we make appropriate investment in all of these businesses, both commercial and development investment, to fund them going forward? If we can't get there, we can't see a clear path to that, then these need to be candidates for us to look for, you know, some better ownership in those businesses. I think we're doing that evaluation now. You know, I don't think, as we go through it, in the end of it, there'll be any dramatic surprises. Look, we're in these businesses. We would love to invest in them and grow them, but you just can't do all of that in all these places. I think that'll be the criteria we'll apply. Got it. Then, you know, when I think about your P&L performance this quarter, you know, it's obviously messy with the divestiture and some of, you know, the GAAP, non-GAAP adjustments there. When I look at actual, you know, your cost of goods sold, your SG&A, it looks like OpEx actually came in, I would say, a little bit better than expected. When we look forward, how do we think about your efforts to really, you know, accelerate the top line once you get through the near-term headwinds while continuing to rationalize costs? Thank you very much. Yeah, thanks. This is Mark. I'm really pleased with our Q1 performance overall. We've done a great job, in my opinion, of managing our expenses, increasing our discipline coming out of the restructuring actions that we had. Obviously, in the restructuring, there were some elimination of positions. We also, you know, looked at a lot of other items of spending in our P&L to understand that and go deeper and make sure, you know, budgets were clear to everybody from a bottoms-up perspective, and that everybody was held accountable and clear on what they needed to do to execute their part of that. If you look at revenue in Q1 and spending in Q1, both of those will be, you know, low points for the year. We expect revenue to increase in the remaining quarters above what we achieved in Q1. Then spending will come up, you know, correlating with that, with that revenue for things like commissions, employee merit. There's some phasing within our spending throughout the year, you know, from R&D and, you know, maybe that we didn't spend in Q1 that comes in in Q2 and Q3 and Q4. Overall, it's just maintaining the discipline that we've established coming into the year and managing that and also, you know, making sure that we have the right, you know, investments while we have that spending discipline to drive the revenue, profitable revenue growth throughout the rest of the year. Thank you. The next question will be from Kyle Rose from Canaccord. Please go ahead. Great. Thank you for taking the question. You know, a lot's been asked, but Tony, just wanted to ask from a cultural standpoint, I mean, look, it's been a challenging period for the organization. Can you just speak to the stability of the commercial team and the stability of, I guess, we'll call it the key leadership and the key contributors that you need to turn around the organization moving forward? I mean, any turnover, things of that sort, just that we should be aware of, or how do we get comfortable with this period of transition for the org? Thank you. Hey, no, thanks, Kyle. You know, I led off my comments about, you know, the confidence I have in the people we have on the team, you know. I've been able to spend some fair amount of time, certainly my direct reports in the, in the leadership of the various aspects of our business, and I feel highly confident in that group. You know, I feel highly confident in the stability of that group. You know, we got the, we got the talent we need to lead forward. We've got a position to fill in our international general manager's position and we got a nice candidate list. We are, you know, we're a good employer. We're a good place to come. We got a neat international business to build on, we'll be able to find a candidate for that. I think we have had our share of turnover, more than our share of turnover in our sales teams. You know, part of what we're trying to do is restore confidence, and I think that that's very manageable to do. You know, my style is to decentralize the leadership and the empowerment in the organization and get people to be part of the fix. You know, I think our leaders are invigorated by that. They're energized by playing a role in helping this company get strong again. We got a great foundation to build on. I think they know what they have in terms of products. There's nobody leaving because our products aren't good. They want confidence in the company, and, you know, I'm here to work very hard with this team to restore that this can be done, that we will do it, and that confidence can be established. You know, I think there's. You know, again, I've been very focused on this team of, look, I'm gonna spend my time looking forward and not looking backward because that's where we have to focus our attention, driving this growth, letting people be empowered, be a part of the fix and part of the future. I think the more you let people engage in that, the more they wanna be part of this. I feel like, you know, nobody can predict everything here, but I feel like we're gonna stabilize that much of the turnover that we've been experiencing. Certainly, the leadership team is stable and intact now with one open spot to fill. You know, I feel good about where we are. Thank you for taking the questions. You bet. Thank you. The next question will come from Drew Ranieri from Morgan Stanley. Please go ahead. Hi, thanks for taking the questions. Just, I know you don't wanna give guidance right now, but just when we think about the 2023 EBIT of at least $68 million, I mean, that's essentially taking the Q1 and multiplying that by 4. As we do think about potential upside to that number for the year, would it come more from revenue upside, or are you more focused on really kind of OpEx improvements or even gross margins coming in a little better than expected? Just trying to get a sense of some of the moving pieces that are going to drive EBITDA up there. Yeah, Drew, I mean, I really would say, you know, all of the above. You know, we're focused, as Tony talked in his remarks about, you know, recovering in the HA business in the second half and, you know, optimizing pricing and really going deep there, getting more focus on making sure that we're maximizing our opportunity in that market as we're seeing the positive volume growth that we talked about. You know, the other, you know, Surgical Solutions where we talked about from a full year perspective, you know, expect that to have double-digit growth. When we look at our Advanced Rehabilitation portfolio, we expect double-digit growth from that. Our international business had a really good Q1. We expect that to continue for the year. T hat's, you know, from a revenue growth perspective. You know, back to what I talked earlier about from a spending perspective, I do feel really good about the foundation that we've set and the organization coming into 2023 from a spending perspective and driving a lot more discipline in the organization than we've had in the past, making sure people are clear on their part of getting there and managing it from there. Spending will increase from Q1, mostly due to revenue-related items, but there's also some phasing of R&D investments and things like this that, you know, raise along with employee salary. It's really just about, you know, essentially, you know, raising that revenue from what we saw in Q1 and then managing the spending accordingly as we go through the rest of the year and making sure that we're maximizing EBITDA, continuing to look for areas where we can get more efficient, and obviously, you know, managing cash flow as well from the standpoint of, you know, continuing to focus on improving our leverage and working on working capital, you know, from an accounts receivable perspective. We have a new operations leader coming in that's, you know, all over our inventory to manage that down. I know those aren't P&L items, but that's obviously important from a leverage perspective and when we're, you know, really trying to manage this across the board to get back to the strong company that we know we are. Got it. Thanks, Mark. I appreciate that. Maybe going back, and this might be a question for both you and Tony, but going back to Alan's question about potential divestitures and should we be thinking about those in the magnitude of the wound care business or just any more color around that? A third follow-up. I believe you mentioned that you are still seeing volume growth across the HA business, and right now, HA, the market is kind of in disruption. Could you talk a little bit more about the volume growth and maybe any types of share shifts you are seeing within your products? Thanks for taking the questions. Yeah. I think, you know, I'll just go back to, I think Tony summarized the divestiture situation perfectly. Couldn't have said that any better myself. I just think it's not, you know, one or the other. It's really looking ourselves in the mirror and understanding what we're capable of to manage and maximize those products the best and what ones are gonna require investments that we can afford. Then, you know, just continuing to do that to make sure that we're making those best choices and we're doing a lot of work on that as a team. Just continue to re-evaluate the portfolio there. There's not any one profile as he said that we would do. For the second, could you repeat the second part of your question? Sure. Just with the disruption in the HA market broadly, I mean, you were talking- Right. -about, volume increases across your portfolio. Yeah. Maybe just talk about what you're seeing in the market, any market share gains you're seeing across the injection types. Thanks. Yeah. We're continuing to see good growth, you know, in DUROLANE, especially from year-to-year unit perspective, and Supartz continues to always, you know, become a positive surprise. I'd say from a competitive dynamics, as you know from our prior calls in Q3 of last year, we saw some competitive dynamics from a negative impact on the business. In Q1, we've actually been able to recover some of that business back into our portfolio and increase some share there from the competition headwinds that we had. We'd expect some of those dynamics to continue as we go through the rest of the year. Thanks for taking the questions. Yeah. I'll just echo. Underlying HA market is still, in the U.S., is still a good market. You know, you're still talking about a 5% kinda growth market as best everybody can predict. With our growth rates, we're running a bit ahead of that this quarter, so we have good confidence where we are. Great. Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes our question and answer session. I would like to turn the conference back over to Tony Bihl for any closing remarks. Again, thanks everyone for your continued interest in Bioventus. While some recent challenges remain in our business, we're confident that our results and execution this quarter was a first step in rebuilding our credibility and realizing our revenue and earnings growth opportunities. My leadership team and I lead a dedicated team of employees that are focused on our mission and stakeholder value creation. Thanks again. Thank you, sir. The conference has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation.
