New Agreement expands Conformis\u2019 global reach and brings patient-specific knee replacement systems to the largest market in the Asia-Pacific region<\/h4>\n

BILLERICA, Mass., June 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Conformis, Inc.\u00a0(NASDAQ:CFMS) today announced the execution of an agreement to enter the Asia-Pacific market through an exclusive distribution relationship with XR Medical Group (Hong Kong) Limited (XR Medical).<\/p>\n

Under the distribution agreement, XR Medical will have exclusive rights for the sale, marketing, and distribution of Conformis\u2019 patient-specific iTotal\u00ae<\/sup> CR & PS total knee replacement systems, iTotal\u00ae<\/sup> CR & PS patella devices, and iUni\u00ae<\/sup> and iDuo\u00ae<\/sup> partial knee replacement systems. Other products, such as Conformis\u2019 recently approved Identity Imprint\u2122 knee system and its hip portfolio of products, may be added in the future.<\/p>\n

XR Medical\u2019s sales team will provide sales and support exclusively to top-tier facilities in Hainan\u2019s Boao Lecheng International Medical Tourism Pilot Zone (Pilot Zone) on behalf of Conformis. The region is a major center of medical tourism for dozens of countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis distribution agreement is another example of progress as we execute our overall growth strategy. We are confident that our unique product portfolio will serve to accelerate Conformis\u2019 international growth. And we are pleased to partner with XR Medical, which has an impressive track record of success in China,\u201d said Mark Augusti, President and CEO of Conformis. \u201cWhat is particularly attractive about XR Medical is its strong performance in the Pilot Zone. With access to patients visiting the region for treatment, this creates an opportunity to introduce a broad audience to the clinical benefits of Conformis technology. We believe that starting in the Pilot Zone positions us well and we anticipate that this relationship will serve as a model for future expansion opportunities in mainland China.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Pilot Zone is located on Hainan, a large island off China\u2019s southern coast. It was established in 2019 to attract affluent Chinese citizens who might otherwise go abroad for their medical care. This region of China has developed top-level medical treatment facilities in a popular destination. Currently, medical tourists from dozens of countries, including those in\u00a0Southeast Asia, are permitted to visit Hainan\u00a0for a 30-day stay without visas.<\/p>\n

The global market for knee joint reconstruction is projected at more than $9 billion. Of this total, the knee joint reconstruction market in the Asia-Pacific region is currently estimated to exceed $1.7 billion. Fortune Business Insights predicts a high growth rate for knee replacements in the region due to the combination of the increased prevalence of knee disorders, booming medical tourism, increased disposable incomes, and improved healthcare infrastructure.<\/p>\n
