ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

On January 30, 2014 we issued 1,364,632 unregistered shares of our common stock to the former members of Solana Surgical, LLC, or Solana, as partial consideration when we acquired the Solana business pursuant to a merger agreement among us, Solana, certain selling members and certain other entities. At closing, 217,079 of shares of our common stock issued to the selling members were placed into an escrow account, over which the selling members’ representative shares the right to direct investment decisions. We agreed to register 590,397 of the aforementioned shares pursuant to the merger agreement. This prospectus is part of a registration statement that we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, to satisfy those registration rights. We have agreed to pay the expenses incurred in registering these shares, including legal and accounting fees.

This prospectus is part of a registration statement on Form S-3 that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the “SEC,” using a “shelf” registration process for the delayed offering and sale of securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933. A prospectus supplement may add, update or change information included in this prospectus. You should read both this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, together with additional information described below under the caption “Where You Can Find More Information.”

We have not authorized anyone to give you any additional information different from that contained in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement or any free writing prospectus provided in connection with an offering. We take no responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. We are not making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer is not permitted.

The information contained in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date on the front cover of this prospectus, regardless of when this prospectus is delivered or when any sale of our securities occurs. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date.

This prospectus is not an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy our securities in any circumstances under which or jurisdiction in which the offer or solicitation is unlawful. Unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms “WMGI,” “Wright Medical Group,” “Wright,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” as used in this prospectus refer to Wright Medical Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The phrase “this prospectus” refers to this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplement, unless the context otherwise requires.

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they never materialize or prove incorrect, could cause our results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The statements contained in this prospectus that are not purely historical are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as, but not limited to, “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “prospects,” “forecasts,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “plan,” “target,” and similar expressions or variations intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management based on information currently available to management. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other important factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, factors discussed in the section of any accompanying prospectus supplement entitled “Risk Factors” and the risk factors and cautionary statements described in other documents that we file from time to time with the SEC, specifically under “Item 1A: Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2012, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

Our authorized capital stock as stated in our Certificate of Amendment of our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation consists of 100 million shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, and 5 million shares of preferred stock, par value $.01 per share, that are undesignated as to series. The following summary of our common stock and preferred stock is not complete and may not contain all of the information you should consider. This description is subject to and qualified in its entirety by provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, which are incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any applicable prospectus supplements, and by applicable provisions of Delaware law.

Common Stock

As of February 12, 2014 there were approximately 49,543,424 shares of common stock outstanding and held of record by 481 stockholders. The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and are not entitled to cumulate votes. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably dividends as may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets that are legally available for distribution after payment of all debts and other liabilities, subject to the prior rights of any holders of preferred stock then outstanding. The holders of common stock have no other preemptive, subscription, redemption, sinking fund or conversion rights. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and nonassessable. The shares of common stock to be issued upon completion of the offering will also be fully paid and nonassessable. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be negatively impacted by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock which we may designate and issue in the future.

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company serves as Wright’s transfer agent and registrar for Wright common stock. You may contact American Stock Transfer & Trust Company at 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219 or by telephone at (800) 937-5449.

Shares of Wright common stock are listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “WMGI.”

Undesignated Preferred Stock

No shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding. Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our board of directors has the authority, without action by our stockholders, to designate and issue any authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of each series, any or all of which may be greater than the rights of our common stock. It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock upon the rights of holders of our common stock until our board determines the specific rights of the holders of preferred stock. However, the effects might include, among other things, restricting dividends on the common stock, diluting the voting power of the common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock and delaying or preventing a change in control of our common stock without further action by our preferred stockholders.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, Wright’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

The Wright board of directors has adopted certain provisions in, and amendments to, Wright’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws intended to strengthen the Wright board of directors’ position in the event of a hostile takeover attempt. These provisions provide:

 

    that only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the bylaws shall be eligible for election as directors;

 

6


Table of Contents
    that directors may be removed only for cause and upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of outstanding shares (as included in Wright’s certificate of incorporation);

 

    that the bylaws of Wright may be adopted, amended, altered or repealed by holders of Wright stock only upon approval of at least two-thirds of the voting power of all the then outstanding shares of common stock and the Wright board of directors shall have the power to make, rescind, alter, amend and repeal the bylaws of Wright (though the stockholders of Wright have the power to enact bylaws that will not be rescinded, altered, amended or repealed by the Wright board of directors); and

 

    that only the Wright board of directors, the chairman of the Wright board of directors or the chief executive officer and president may call special meetings of Wright stockholders or, at the request of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Wright capital stock entitled to vote, the Wright chief executive officer and president will call a special meeting of Wright stockholders.

Additionally, the DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulative voting in the election of directors unless a corporation’s certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Wright’s certificate of incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.

Furthermore, Wright is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. In general, the statute prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions. For purposes of Section 203, a “business combination” includes a merger, asset sale or other transaction resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder, and an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns, or is an affiliate or associate of the corporation and within the prior three years, did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock.

INCORPORATION OF CERTAIN DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE

The SEC allows us to “incorporate by reference” certain information into this prospectus, which means that we can disclose important information about us by referring you to another document filed separately with the SEC. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be a part of this prospectus. Because we are incorporating by reference future filings with the SEC, this prospectus is continually updated and those future filings may modify or supersede some of the information included or incorporated in this prospectus. This means that you must carefully review all of the SEC filings that we incorporate by reference to determine if any of the statements in this prospectus or in any document previously incorporated by reference have been modified or superseded. However, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any statements we make, except as required by law.

This prospectus incorporates by reference the documents listed below and any future filings we make with the SEC under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, (in each case, other than those documents or the portions of those documents not deemed to be filed) until the offering of the securities under the registration statement is terminated or completed:

In conjunction with preparing the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, an error was identified in the previously reported loss from discontinued operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The error related primarily to depreciation and amortization charges recorded on assets held for sale and totaled approximately $ 2.7 million, net of tax. Management has concluded that this error was not material to the interim financial information taken as a whole and has recorded an adjustment of $2.7 million , net of tax, to income from discontinued operations in the fourth quarter of 2013 which will be reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013;
