Revenue growth was negatively impacted by weak surgical revenues while improved cost efficiency positively impacted profits. We believe that the divestiture of the company s underperforming OEM solutions business is a positive as it will help management focus on its relatively fast growing and higher margin surgical business. Nevertheless, we believe that sluggish hospital spending environment will pose a headwind to top-line growth over the next several quarters. Moreover, the surgical market is significantly fragmented. Also, heightened competition will compel Symmetry Medical to spend on new product development that will hurt margins, at least in the near term. Given the headwinds, we downgrade our recommendation from Outperform to Neutral and set a price target of $9.50.

2 OVERVIEW Headquartered in Warsaw, IN, Symmetry Medical, Inc. (SMA) provides surgical instruments, orthopedic implants and sterilization cases and trays. The company operates in two reportable segments: (1) Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Solutions and (2) Symmetry Surgical. Through its OEM business (79.2% of revenues at the end of the first nine months of 2014) Symmetry Medical offers instruments, implants and sterilization cases and trays to OEM customers. In Aug 2014, the company announced the sale of the OEM business to Tecomet for $450 million in cash or $7.50 per share after fees and elimination of outstanding debt. Under the terms of the agreement, Symmetry Medical will transfer its remaining Symmetry Surgical business to its shareholders in a newly traded standalone public company. Shareholders will receive one share in the new company for every four Symmetry Medical shares held. The company expects the transaction to be completed by the end of Surgical business segment (20.8% of revenues at the end of the first nine months of 2014), headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, was created in The segment developed from integration of the acquired Codman surgical instruments and Olsen Medical lines with the company s already existing hospital direct business, Specialty Surgical Instrumentation (SSI). Symmetry Surgical offers a broad range of reusable stainless steel and titanium surgical hand-held instruments and retractor systems, sterile disposable surgical products (vein strippers, SECTO dissectors, tonsil sponges and surgical marker pens), and sterilization containers. These products are typically used in the surgical specialties of spine, general/obstetrics/gynecology, microsurgery/neurosurgery, orthopedics, laparoscopy, cardiovascular, thoracic and general surgery in the hospital setting as well as surgery centers and in select physician offices. Symmetry Medical reported revenues of $399.9 million in In the nine-month period ended Sep 27, 2014, revenues increased 1.2% year over year to $294.1 million. Notably, United States accounted for 72.7% of the revenues. REASONS TO BUY The divestiture of the OEM solutions business is expected to enhance the growth potential of Symmetry Surgical, apart from providing liquidity to shareholders. Much like the sale of U.K.-based subsidiary, Clamonta Ltd., the OEM divestiture will help the company focus on high-margin surgical business. Meanwhile, lower manufacturing footprint will drive profits. According to management, the stand-alone company will be able to target a broader surgical instrument market, which will drive sales. Symmetry Surgical is estimated to have an approximate 8 9% share of the re-usable surgical instruments market, which is currently worth almost $1 billion. However, this is only a minuscule part of the general surgery devices segment, which is estimated to value $18 billion. Hence, we believe that the new stand-alone entity has immense potential to penetrate this growing market banking on its strong product portfolio and nimble structure over the long term. Symmetry Medical has created a distinct competitive position in the orthopedic device market with its Total Solutions approach. Through Total Solutions, customers are provided with a broad range of products related to orthopedic implants, as well as comprehensive services and production capabilities to bring these implant systems from the drawing board design stage to commercialization in a timely and cost efficient manner. Most of Symmetry s customers expand outsourcing, to realize Equity Research SMA Page 2
3 the benefits of a one-stop shop solution that allows them to focus their efforts on marketing and research and development (R&D). Total Solutions will not only provide the company with growth opportunities but will also increase the relative percentage of value-added products offered to customers. Symmetry Medical continues to introduce new products, which are likely to boost its top line. The company is aggressively spending capital to support new product launches. Symmetry Medical has also diversified its offerings into areas outside of orthopedics like dental, osteobiologic, and endoscopy. As a stand-alone company, Symmetry Surgical is expected to foray into other surgical device markets like Minimally Invasive Surgical segment, Neuro, Robotics, Aesthetics, Uro-Gyno, Audiology, Ortho, and Ophthalmology, which will further drive growth. Symmetry Medical s cash and debt positions have improved. The company exited the third quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $27.2 million, which highlighted a significant improvement from $7.4 million reported at the end of The figure also compares favorably with $17.3 million reported at the end of the previous quarter. Long-term debt stood at $170 million, which remained flat with the previous quarter figure. Net cash from operating activities also improved in the last nine months. The sale of the OEM business will further improve liquidity, which is another positive in our view. REASONS TO SELL The divestiture of Clamonta will likely hurt Symmetry Medical s revenues in Moreover, the new Symmetry Surgical business is facing significant challenges due to persistently sluggish hospital spending. Symmetry Medical faces pricing pressure in the orthopedic market and concerns over depressed pricing in certain markets add to its woes. In the surgical market, the company faces intense competition from the likes of B Braun, CareFusion, Integra Life Sciences, Storz and numerous product divisions of capital equipment companies, which is a major concern for the stand-alone surgical business over the long term. Symmetry Medical is exposed to customer concentration risks. In the nine months of 2014, two customers accounted for approximately 30.5% and 12.2%, respectively, of revenues. Symmetry Medical s largest customer (DePuy) accounted for 29.5% of third-quarter revenues. Loss of any of these customers will considerably hurt top-line growth going forward. Symmetry Medical s significant international presence helps to widen its customer base. However, fluctuations in currency exchange rates can adversely impact the company s international sales.

4 RECENT NEWS Third Quarter Highlights Symmetry Medical reported adjusted earnings of $0.11 per share in the third quarter of 2014, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimates of $0.14. However, earnings per share (EPS) improved from $0.08 reported in the year-ago quarter. Quarter Details Revenues remained almost flat from the year-ago quarter to $96 million, which lagged the Zack Consensus Estimate of $97 million. The OEM Solutions segment s revenues totaled $76 million, up 3.3% from the year-ago quarter. Higher revenues from the Instruments (up 4.4%), Implants (up 3.9%) and Other (up 29.1%) segments drove the growth, which was partially marred by a drop in Cases segment revenues (down 4.1%). OEM customers spent relatively less on Instruments and Cases in the quarter. The Symmetry Surgical segment revenues grossed $20.0 million, down 9.8% from the year-ago quarter. The decline can be mainly attributed to lower amount of spending in hospitals. Revenue growth was also negatively impacted by loss of distribution rights of the New Wave surgical product line, which was acquired by Covidien. Symmetry Medical s largest customer accounted for 29.5% of third-quarter revenues. Gross margin expanded 40 basis points (bps) on a year-over-year basis to 26.8%. The gross margin expansion was primarily driven by cost efficiency initiatives. Sales and marketing expenses was $6.3 million, down 3.1% from the year-ago quarter. However, general and administrative expenses increased 26.8% year over year to $14.9 million. Adjusted operating margin contracted 130 basis points on a year-over-year basis to 8.5%, due to higher costs and a lower revenue base. Financial Position Cash and cash equivalents at the end of third quarter was $27.2 million. Equity Research SMA Page 4
5 VALUATION Symmetry Medical shares are currently trading at 20.7X TTM earnings, a discount to the peer group average of 46.3X but at a premium as compared with S&P 500 average of 19.0X. The stock is trading below the mid-point of the historical range of 11.1X to 39.2X TTM earnings. Thus, a chance of upside from the current level is possible. The stock is trading at 18.2X, a 28.3% discount based on our 2014 forward estimates, lower than the average discount of 41.3% historically, which indicates possibility of downward movement. Moreover, Symmetry Medical s 5 year estimated EPS growth rate of 9% is much worse than the peer group average. Given the negative signals, we downgrade our recommendation from Outperform to Neutral and set a target price of $9.50 (19X 2014 EPS).
