SALT LAKE CITY - SINTX Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SINT), currently valued at $7.26 million, announced a new corporate strategy focused on accelerating the commercialization of its silicon nitride technologies following a recapitalization completed in February and recent leadership changes. According to InvestingPro data, the company maintains a favorable cash position, with liquid assets exceeding short-term obligations.
The company, which describes itself as the only FDA-registered producer of implantable silicon nitride, plans to expand applications of its ceramic technology beyond the 50,000 spinal implants already placed worldwide. With annual revenues of $2.57 million and a gross profit margin of 67.5%, SINTX faces challenges ahead, as analysts anticipate sales decline in the current year.
SINTX’s strategic initiatives include developing hybrid biomaterials that combine silicon nitride with polymers for applications in spine, oral/maxillofacial, and oncologic reconstruction. The company is also pursuing joint ventures with manufacturers in orthopedics, wound care, and agribiotech sectors.
"Our mission is to drive sustainable growth and value creation by collaborating with market leaders who recognize the transformative potential of silicon nitride," said Eric Olson, CEO of SINTX Technologies, according to the press release.
The company holds 18 issued U.S. patents and 84 pending applications related to its silicon nitride technology, which it notes has applications in the $62 billion global orthopedic implant market and other fields. InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently undervalued, though investors should note that 8 additional ProTips are available to subscribers, offering deeper insights into the company’s financial health and market position.
SINTX first received FDA clearance for its silicon nitride spinal implants in 2008. The company states the material offers antimicrobial activity, osteogenic potential, and radiographic translucency.
The company’s strategy also includes monetizing its patent portfolio through licensing agreements and enhancing its 3D manufacturing capabilities at its FDA-cleared and ISO-certified headquarters.
This announcement comes after SINTX completed a recapitalization in February 2025 and restructured its leadership team and board of directors. The company’s overall financial health score stands at "FAIR" according to InvestingPro metrics, with particular strength in maintaining a solid balance sheet despite ongoing operational challenges.
