Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On June 20, 2019, Misonix, Inc. (“Misonix”) issued a press release announcing that it had received a letter from the Division of Enforcement of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 18, 2019, stating that the SEC has concluded its investigation of Misonix and that, based on the information it has as of the date of the letter, it does not intend to recommend an enforcement action by the SEC against Misonix with respect to the matters described below.

 

As previously disclosed, with the assistance of outside counsel, Misonix conducted a voluntary investigation into the business practices of the independent Chinese entity that previously distributed Misonix’s products in China and Misonix’s knowledge of those business practices, which may have had implications under the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, as well as into various internal controls issues identified during the investigation. On September 27, 2016 and September 28, 2016, Misonix voluntarily contacted the SEC and the Department of Justice, respectively, to advise both agencies of these potential issues and has fully cooperated with those agencies in their subsequent inquiry and investigation relating to these matters.

On June 20, 2019, Misonix, Inc. issued a press release announcing that the SEC has concluded its investigation of Misonix, as described herein.

This press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
