SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT) (“SINTX” or the “Company”),
an advanced ceramics company focused on medical device innovation,
today announced that it has executed a Definitive Agreement to
acquire the surgical business assets of SiNAPTIC Holdings, LLC, a
privately held company focused on silicon nitride ceramic
manufacturing and innovation. This transaction is a significant
milestone in SINTX’s strategy to acquire a potential competitor and
drive commercial revenue growth and expand its product portfolio in
the foot and ankle fusion market.
Under the terms of the agreement, SINTX has
acquired all intellectual property, product designs, and
development assets related to six (6) differentiated foot and ankle
implant systems. These designs are backed by clinical development
and mechanical testing and a 510(k) pre-submission that is expected
to accelerate near-term commercial launch activities. The global
ankle fusion market, currently valued at approximately $750.5
million, is expected to grow to $1.38 billion by 2032, representing
a CAGR of 9.1%, according to industry research.
“This acquisition is transformative for SINTX by
adding a family of FDA-reviewed implants, portfolio of new
technologies, and capital, accelerating our shift from R&D to
revenue generation and commercial scale,” said Eric Olson, CEO of
SINTX Technologies. “Additionally, the SiNAPTIC team brings deep
expertise in product development, regulatory strategy, and
commercialization to support our existing commercial product
portfolio—key elements in driving increased value for our
shareholders.”
As part of the transaction, key members of the
SiNAPTIC Surgical executive team and board of directors will join
SINTX in the following roles:
- Chairman of SINTX Clinical Advisory
Board, Bryan Scheer, M.D.
- Managing Director of Business Development, Hugh Roberts
- Chief Commercial Officer, Lisa Marie Del Re, MPE, ATC,
NASM-PES
- Senior Vice President of Regulatory and Quality Affairs, Brian
Hockett
- Senior Design Engineer, Basil Tharu, M.S.
In consideration for the acquired assets, SINTX
issued $750,000 in common shares , priced at $3.465 per share which
represents a 10% premium to the closing price of the Company’s
common stock on Friday, June 20, 2025, along with 325,000
performance-based common stock purchase warrants. The common shares
are subject to a six-month lock-up agreement and the Company has
committed to file a resale registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission registering the resale of the
common shares and the common shares issuable on exercise of the
common stock purchase warrants. These warrants are exercisable over
five years at a strike price of $6.30, and vest upon achieving
specific regulatory and commercial milestones, including FDA
clearance and revenue targets.
SINTX will manufacture all devices under its
FDA-registered and ISO-certified quality system and leverage
existing FDA clearances and Master Files to streamline regulatory
approvals.
In addition, Dr. Bryan Scheer, Chairman and CEO
of SiNAPTIC, will lead a newly formed Clinical Advisory Board to
guide ongoing product development and surgeon engagement.
“This acquisition reflects our shared belief in
the transformative potential of silicon nitride ceramic-enhanced
implants and the strength of our combined teams,” said Dr. Scheer.
“Together, we can accelerate the development of disruptive products
and deliver meaningful clinical value.”
