Founded in 1990 as a contract medical device manufacturer, Alphatec Spine has transformed itself into a leading independent medical device company in both North America and Japan. The change began in March of 2005 when Alphatec was acquired by a group of investors led by the New York private equity firm HealthpointCapital LLC. The acquisition brought an infusion of capital and a heightened commitment to physician relationships and services.
Later in 2005, the company enhanced its product line by acquiring Cortek, a developer and seller of allograft implants for spinal fusion. In June of 2006, Alphatec Holdings, Inc., the parent corporation of Alphatec Spine, completed the initial public offering and the company stock shares currently trade on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol "ATEC."

The Alphatec “Surgeon Culture”
Alphatec Spine attributes its excellence in spinal technology to the implementation of innovation that is driven by its "Surgeons' Culture." Alphatec differentiates itself from its competitors because it can engineer, prototype and manufacture a broad range of spinal products and systems in its state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities. This flexibility allows Alphatec to collaborate with surgeons on a one-on-one basis, from initial concept through finished product, building customized products to meet their special needs. Alphatec offers the industry's fastest turn around time on innovative and custom products for surgeons.
Alphatec will continue to build and measure its success on its primary point of differentiation: service to the surgeon. Service that is built on Alphatec's "ability to listen and to make changes."
Alphatec Spine’s success depends on having a team of people who are dedicated to meeting the needs of orthopedic surgeons and their patients.
