PART III — NARRATIVE
State below in reasonable detail why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period.
DENTSPLY SIRONA Inc. (the “Company”) is unable to timely file, without unreasonable effort and expense, its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2022 (the “Form 10-Q”).
As previously reported, the Company was unable to timely file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 as a result of an internal investigation commenced in March 2022 by
the Audit and Finance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, as described in the Explanatory Notes to Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed on November 7, 2022 (the “Form
10-K/A”) and Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2021 filed on November 7, 2022 (the “Form 10-Q/A”). The internal investigation has been completed.
The Company also filed its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022 on November 7, 2022. Given the demands on management’s time that were required to complete and file the
2021 Form 10-K/A, the Form 10-Q/A, and the delinquent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, the Company requires additional time to complete its goodwill and intangible assets impairment analyses
and final review of its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and other disclosures in the Form 10-Q. The Company fully expects to file the Form 10-Q within the extension period of five calendar days as provided under Rule 12b-25
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
The Company does not expect any changes to previously reported select preliminary financial results, including the range of anticipated
pre-tax charges for goodwill and intangible asset impairment previously provided in its press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on Nov. 1, 2022.
