why not on 1Q but 2Q....
Don't they have to get thru. 1Q first?
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1136869/000119312517140971/d384208dex991.htm
exhibit of the Zimmer's prelim 8K for 1Q
I can't find the same language they use in their 8K they filed yesterday..
Someone please check thru. & confirm please.
My thought as well...
Effective July11, 2017, David C. Dvorak stepped down as President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. Mr.Dvorak will remain with the Company as an employee in an advisory capacity for a period of time. The Company did not enter into, amend or modify any material compensatory plans or arrangements in connection with Mr.Dvorak’s departure. Mr.Dvorak will be entitled to certain compensation and benefits following his departure under existing arrangements.

You see how strange...
He was the man that connected Zimmer & Amedica.
EXACTLY...
I am doing the reverse engineering method to dig...& eliminating method.
not necessarily...
what if we don't find any acquisition in 2017 so far. So their lines in that prelim 8K is a big hint too.
we are looking for 2017 acquisition...
2016 is done deal...nothing related to 2Q 2017...they said recently
no read that txt again....
they can't produce 2Q GAAP due to "finalizing" the accounting related to recently acquisition.
That is why I am going thru. all their SEC filings in 2017...to see which company they acquire so far in 2017...
You can help to dig in their filing...just search for the keyword " acquire" "acquisition"
https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?CIK=zbh&owner=exclude&action=getcompany
side note: if they dilute their shares to get $$$ to buy companies...that would affect their EPS as stated in the filings...
Or even share exchange to acquire business.
In Zimmer's yesterday prelim 8K:
The Company also expects adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter to be at or near the bottom of its previously issued guidance range of $2.08 to $2.13. The Company is unable to provide estimated GAAP (reported) diluted earnings per share results for the second quarter 2017, without unreasonable efforts, as the Company is finalizing the tax accounting related to recently acquired businesses and other certain items that are excluded from the computation of adjusted diluted earnings per share.
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1136869/000119312517226126/d421085dex991.htm
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP TO DIG IN TO SEE WHICH BUSINESSES THEY RECENTLY ACQUIRED IN 2017?
I am reading the 1Q 2017 now.
I would nominate this guy as Zimmer's new CEO:
http://imgur.com/a/brN3o
yup....
Joint venture acquisition from Zimmer & Kyoceras is a possible scenario!
I won't surprise a bit if there is a "3 SOME" relationship.
=======================================
Don't forget the interim CEO is the current CFO too...the $ man.
https://www.bloomberg.com/research/stocks/private/person.asp?personId=208647597&privcapId=264048
Which is the key man to execute acquisition:
9. Supervise acquisition due diligence and negotiate acquisitions
https://www.accountingtools.com/articles/2017/5/14/chief-financial-officer-cfo-job-description
===================================================
BTW...Zimmer's CEO stepping down is a good news to them though:
http://www.cafepharma.com/boards/threads/leadership.610117/
This is my take on Zimmer's CEO stepdown:
1. got rid of the incompetent captain of the ship.
2. replace the shitty trabecular metal products line full of recalls & lawsuits.
3. Add the superior, one of a kind si3n4 super biomaterial to help them to maintain & gain more market shares.
4. Later add the new, better captain (CEO) to guide the ship into the right direction.
5. On the 27th, they have to report a lousy 2Q for sure. In order to save the day on that conference call, they must have "something" very special to announce to their investors like acquiring a company with special type of biomaterial Si3N4, which later lead to increase in huge amount of revenues for the company. The tutes that are holding their shares will find no reason not to approve the underway acquisition of that little company "Amedica".
==============================================================
1. R/S = no time as Boston already covered that on a few previous posts.
2. OTC? WTF ... Backward? so much milestones completed...and finally go list on loosely regulated market? Illogical!
3. BK = really? paid debt down from $36 Mils to around $3.5 Mils (included July payment) while revenue jumps. 0% chance.
4. Hercules default (not late or payment issue) on non timely to deliver Financial Statement per the loan agreement. NO "BITCHING" from Hercules & no 8K to update investors that they ask waiver from Hercules = never have to worry/ or don't have to ask for waiver from Hercules.
5. Not worry about delisting deadline (as no time for R/S; how to fix over $1 price by August 14th?)
6. NO 8K to update investors about what plan they submitted to Nasdaq (accepted, rejected, pending result).
There is only 1 scenario that will resolve all of the above issues .......SELLING THE COMPANY!
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!
read my previous 2 posts....
LDR was possibly the same too.
READY TO ADD 100000000000000000000 SALES FROM THE PARENT COMPANY...
WHO IS IT???
Last name Z
First name B
EVERYTHING ELSE is................
NOISE!
only 1 reason to upgrade the phone systems...ready for more sales!
Bigger sale channels from (cough cough parent company to be Mr. Zimmer...IMO)
simple as that.

Another example of AMDA's Transfer Agent played the role of tender offer in acquisition:
Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that Qualcomm River Holdings B.V., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Qualcomm, has extended the offering period of its previously announced cash tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding common shares of NXP Semiconductors N.V. (NASDAQ: NXPI). The tender offer is being made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2016, by and between Qualcomm River Holdings B.V. and NXP. The tender offer is now scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 2, 2017, unless extended or earlier terminated, in either case pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, the depositary for the tender offer, has advised Qualcomm River Holdings B.V. that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 3, 2017, the last business day prior to the announcement of the extension of the offer, 54,811,284 NXP common shares (excluding 11,635 shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in settlement or satisfaction of such guarantee), representing approximately 16.3% of the outstanding NXP common shares, have been validly tendered pursuant to the tender offer and not properly withdrawn. Shareholders who have already tendered their common shares of NXP do not have to re-tender their shares or take any other action as a result of the extension of the expiration date of the tender offer.

ARE THE DAY WE ALL WAITING FOR FINALLY HERE!???
ISANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Intel Corporation (NASDAQ: INTC) today announced that Cyclops Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Intel, has extended the offering period of its previously announced all cash tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding ordinary shares of Mobileye N.V.

NO...but applying a little calculation, you can see the lowest BO pps should be.
IMO...soon the new IR contact is..............

Sometimes my crystal ball is very accurate!
You & Me have the same LOGIC!
It's nothing these other haters can do man...beside bashing to scare retail investors away...while the smart $$$ is buying shares.
The announcement of the marriage between Mr. Zimmer & Miss Amedica is coming...in matter of days or even hours!
For comparison of Acquisition Speculation:
There was a rumor on PTX get bought out by Concordia (CXRX) on message board (S****T****)...It was a P&D attempt!
https://cnafinance.com/pernix-therapeutics-ptx-stock-climbing-dramatically-on-acquisition-rumor/10823
The next day, Concordia shot out a PR to clarify:
UPDATE: Concordia (CXRX) Says it Hasn't Bid For, Nor Has it Acquired Pernix Therapeutics (PTX) - Statement
https://www.streetinsider.com/Mergers+and+Acquisitions/UPDATE%3A+Concordia+%28CXRX%29+Says+it+Hasnt+Bid+For%2C+Nor+Has+it+Acquired+Pernix+Therapeutics+%28PTX%29+-+Statement/11957879.html

Here are the screenshots of the bashers on other message board...they claimed they contacted Zimmer last month too. Where is the PR from Zimmer??? HMMMM...NO PR (to clarify thing) is pretty much telling us it's high possibility is a TRUE-mor instead of rumor! I have been patiently waiting for any PR from Zimmer to shoot down my speculation of BO since I posted the sticky post.

Snapshot of current spine market share:
http://imgur.com/a/NgVNo
First, look at ZBH's chart....has been inching up slowly since June.
Now look at their enemies' charts:
1. JNJ (parent company of Depuy Synthes)...has been dropping since June.
2. SYK has been dropping since June as well.
Coincidentally??? I don't think so...BIG FUNDs were/are possibly shifting their $$$ to ZBH.
I mentioned this before, Blackrock bought $2 billions worth of ZBH shares in 1st Q.
https://fintel.io/so/us/zbh
Why??? Funds always have better DDs team than retails guys like myself & Boston...If we can dig...they can too! Of course they know something BIG IS COOKING!!!
ZBH big sale teams + AMDA's superior, unique Si3N4 tech = lunch stealing from enemies!
Look at the pie, another big player "Medtronic" from Ireland?? uh huh....the root of excessive bashing...most of the bashers from EURO, which is the home field of Metronic! Medtronic get their PEEK material from Envibio in UK...uh huh..
Don't forget hip & knee gold standard player (colab testing of hip fermol head from Zimmber & Amedica beat gold standard)...Ceramtec from Germany...uh huh...
So many euro bashers??? why huh!!! uh huh...obvious!
"WARSAW, Ind., June 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. (NYSE and SIX: ZBH) today announced its second quarter sales and earnings conference call will be broadcast live over the Internet on Thursday, July 27, 2017, at 8 a.m. Eastern Time. A news release detailing the quarterly results will be made available at 7:30 a.m. Eastern Time the morning of the conference call."
http://investor.zimmerbiomet.com/news-and-events/news/2017/06-30-2017-213042633
Puzzle piece #8 "All debt will retire by January 2018, or sooner. Absent new financing, Amedica expects to be compliant with its debt covenants under the Hercules loan through July 2017." First time ever they made this type of statement about paying their debt off early! http://investors.amedica.com/all-sec-filings/content/0001493152-17-006356/ex99-1.htm (Hercules loan PREVENTS take over! As of current, they have enough cash to pay off Hercules loan instantly!)
I don't have a crystal ball, but logically speaking, I would guess the BO news suppose to be announced anytime from today & no later than Zimmer's Conference call date of July 27, 2017...IMO.
***Big dogs at Zimmer's will have good lyrics to sing at the conference call while the closing of the deal is underway***
Just my guess w/o a crystal ball!
3 to 4 times spike in pps...you were begging for Form 4 from insiders...
if Form 4 filed within this moment, it means...insider trading (jail time)...if later BO news coming within a very close time frame...
dp60's post tells alot...why insiders don't need to own tons physical shares!
http://imgur.com/a/kskOW
There... this person is smart...he/she is seeing thru. the Bears' BS games!
It's not the market/investors that panic & sell-off...it's more like the naked short shares by MMs...to steal shares!
From my DDs...they will get delist post BO...hahaha...IMO
To answer your question, I don't think they will get "delisting" issue:
1. They can always appeal to nasdaq & the stock is still trading pending appeal result from nasdaq panels
2. delist to otc then r/s then back to nasdaq...doesn't make any sense at all.
Tons of steps must be taken for that route.
Also, your ? regarding this "delisting" BS from Bears falls right into their game of spread FUD (Fears, Uncertainties, Doubts)...
You see their tactics???
I am composing of summary of why amda is under attack for years! And will post it later...it's all about snuff out the tiny ant competitor (with superior techs, products like amda's si3n4) from big boys (the elephants in the industries) that controlling the market shares of products.
If someone is about to eat your breakfast, lunch, dinner & supper...what would you do???
Find ways to kill them! One form of attack is cutting the enemy' supply line in the art of war!
This supply line for AMDA is $$$ from investors!!! They try to scare investors away with their FUDs game!
Average total days from proxy filing date to effective date of R/S is about 45 days or more. We have to start to be over $1 by July 31st + 10 more trading days continuously til August 14, 2017. So from now til July 31st subtract the 3rd & 4th of July = Less than 30 calendar days!!!
This is AMDA's last R/S (the only R/S so far):
They filed that September 18th, 2015:
www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1269026/000126902615000045/a20150918_pre14a.htm
Proxy effective date: October 2nd, 2015
Vote: November 3rd, 2015
Effective Date: January 25th, 2016
Conclusion:
* Proxy date to Effective R/S date is a total of 130 calendar days!!!
=================================================
This basher (a dedicated basher to bash only AMDA...,cough cough cough) on other message board:
http://imgur.com/a/wkwGq
(Basically, he said previous voting will give power to BOD to R/S again w/o Voting, which is totally wrong!)
(Second, he said it was less than 15 days FOR THE WHOLE R/S PROCESS, which is totally wrong again!)
Let me prove how he LIED:
First off, this shows NSPR had 3 R/S so far:
http://www.splithistory.com/?symbol=nspr
And below:
I skipped their first R/S.
Their 2nd time R/S:
7.29.2015 - Proxy filed for investor meeting & voting for on September 9, 2015
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1433607/000161577415001960/s101538_def14a.htm
10.1.2015 - 8-K annouced of the result from voting & effective date for R/S starts 10.1.2105
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1433607/000161577415002801/s101940_ex99-1.htm
Conclusion:
* Proxy date to Effective R/S date = 65 calendar days!!!
=====================================================
8.18.2016 - Proxy filed for investor meeting & voting on R/S
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1433607/000149315216012648/def14a.htm
9.29.2016 - 8-K filed to update the result of voting on R/S (Meetng & Voting on 9.28.2106)
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1433607/000149315216013705/form8-k.htm
8.18.2016 - Proxy filed for investor meeting & voting on R/S
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1433607/000149315216012648/def14a.htm
10.10.2016 - Effective date on R/S.
Conclusion:
* Proxy date to Effective R/S date = 54 calendar days!!!
====================================================
As you can see, previous voting didn't give BODs power to do R/S without voting again...THEY MUST VOTE AGAIN!
WHY THEY HAVE TO LIE??? OBVIOUSLY, THEY HAVE TO COVER MANY SHORTED SHARES & NAKED SHORT SHARES...THEY SPREAD FUD ON MESSAGE BOARD SO PEOPLE WILL PANIC & SELL FOR THEM TO COVER!
WHY AMDA DOESN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE DELISTING OR GET PPS TO BE OVER $1 BY AUGUST 14, 2017????
IN CASE OF BO...THEY WILL GET DELISTED (voluntarily) FOR SURE...LMAO...!!!
Like this last Zimmer's acquisition of LDR:
https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?CIK=ldrh&owner=exclude&action=getcompany
Form 25-NSE to delist in the scenario of BO!
NO man...I am sitting here waiting for the HALT of the century...NO Flipping...NO sell order SET.
I just want to read the BO details...how much per share.
I am right here buddy...been reading all the posts (every single ones) on Ihub, ST & yahoo...i don't miss reading a post!
Just today...next time will be in September.

There is nothing shows that they are the exhibitor of this Meeting (Hip & knee):
http://meeting.aahks.net/submissions/symposium-guidelines/
It's normal...ATM, they have no knee or hip products to show off.

As you could see, all the big boys will be there, J&J (DePuy Synthes), Medtronic, Strykers, Zimmer Biomet, Smith & Nephew...etc. Also, booth # 306 (size 30x30) is empty. Which other big boys in Knee & Hip are not on the exhibitors list? Anyone? Boston, do you know?
Look at all these lawsuits from hip replacement from these big boys:
"In addition to J&J subsidiary DePuy Orthopaedics, Stryker and others face lawsuits alleging their products had an early failure rate and caused a host of issues, including metallosis."
https://earlsview.com/2017/01/22/johnson-johnson-faces-another-hip-replacement-lawsuit/
The comment section:
"this is good news. I live in dallas and got a smith and nephew BHR and have gone to 4 lawyers and all have refused to file the case.
Collin Schultz
469-636-8087"
https://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/investigations/549943-depuy-zimmer-hip-implant-class-action-lawsuit-investigation/
Make me wonder what types of crappy hip products are they trying to show off though???
And now look at Zimmer Knee lawsuits:
"Knee replacement surgery, also know as arthroplasty, is a procedure in which a doctor St. Louis knee injury lawyersurgically removes damaged areas of the knee and replaces them with plastic or metal implants
http://baddrugrecalllawyer.com/knee-replacements/
PLASITC & METAL KNEE & HIP PRODUCTS LAWSUITS & TONS OF RECALLS.
I am wondering again...what types of crappy knee & hip products will Zimmer Biomet are trying to show off at the up the coming AAHKS (American Association Of Hip And Knee Surgeons) meeting?
OR ...HMMM...THEY ARE TRYING TO SHOW OFF SOME SPECIAL TYPE OF KNEE & HIP PRODUCTS IN THE MAKING WITH THE SPECIAL BIOMATERIAL OTHER THAN PLASTIC & METAL...MR. SI3N4!???
If so, who are they getting these special biomaterial from? Hmm...
This is the reason:
http://www.investopedia.com/terms/q/quadruplewitching.asp
I agree totally man! I have a reasonable # in my head...but of course I won't disclose...I'll be so contented if I see that # in the deal.
A little more from other bidders...I can careless man.
I just want this SAGA ends as soon as possible...move on to the next BO plays.
Life too short man.
As an investor, doesn't matter who buy them man...All I care is how much per share! CASH out quickly & move on to the next BO plays.
A bidding war would be nice, but i bet the deal already inked with Zimmer...IMO.
I am sitting here waiting for the HALT of the century...then read the details of the 8K on the BO news...IMO...i think it's coming very soon.
Hopefully, the deal price is reasonable for both Zimmer & Amedica.
As we speak, the bashing attempt from losers (funds, MMs, in-house investment team from hating competitors, the owner of 2.3 millions in-sun-light short interest positions, & of course a bunch of naked shares owners)...Here are some screen shots of them bashing desperately to assist the naked shorting in process for quite a long time:

VS.
"I got tired of averaging down and try now to wait for some type of a reversal, not worried about catching the exact bottom"
