EXPLANATORY NOTE

This amendment to the proxy statement of OrthoPediatrics Corp. filed on April 2, 2025 (the "Proxy Statement") amends the Pay Versus Performance section of the Proxy Statement solely for the purpose of including the required Inline XBRL tagging, as the Proxy Statement inadvertently did not have complete XBRL tagging. There are no other changes to the Pay Versus Performance section, or any other portion of, the Proxy Statement.

Pay Versus Performance
The following table and graphs provide information required under the SEC's "pay versus performance" rules over the last three years as required by Section 953(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The graphs below show the relationship of "compensation actually paid" to our principal executive officer ("PEO") and other NEOs in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024.
