MIMEDX Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Operating and Financial Results






Reports Highest Quarterly Net Sales Since the Fourth Quarter of 2019

Quarterly Net Sales of $74.4 million Reflect Growth of 10% with Strong Contributions from Sales to the Surgical Market

Initiated the First of Two Registrational Clinical Trials for micronized dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane (“mDHACM”) in the Treatment of Knee Osteoarthritis (“KOA”)

Management to Host Conference Call Today, February 28, 2023, at 5:00 PM ET

MARIETTA, Ga., Feb. 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MiMedx Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDXG) (“MIMEDX” or the “Company”), a pioneer and leader in placental biologics, today announced operating and financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2022.

Joseph H. Capper, MIMEDX Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), commented, “The MIMEDX team closed out 2022 on a high note, delivering the highest quarterly net sales in a couple of years. That strong momentum has continued into 2023, driven by our best-in-class product offering. These solid results and our continued commercial execution come despite the uneven playing field in the private physician office, specifically around Medicare reimbursement. We remain optimistic that reimbursement changes in this care setting, once finalized, can add even more momentum to our business.”

Mr. Capper continued, “During my first month at MIMEDX, I have been highly impressed by the experience, industry knowledge and competitive spirit throughout the company. As I look across MIMEDX, we have an excellent platform from which to build, our Wound & Surgical business in the U.S. is performing well, we have an emerging presence with a first-mover advantage in Japan and a robust product pipeline — including our mDHACM product with its registrational trial now underway. Furthermore, with a focus on cost management and targeted complementary investments, I am confident our business has the potential to grow significantly over time.”

Segment results for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 can be found at the end of this press release.

Net Sales

MIMEDX reported net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2022, of $74.4 million, compared to $67.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, an increase of 10.3%. Net sales growth came from solid contributions in both the Wound & Surgical end markets.

For the full year 2022, MIMEDX reported net sales of $267.8 million, compared to $258.6 million in the prior year period, reflecting growth of 3.6%. MIMEDX’s full year 2022 net sales also reflect growth of 10.5% across its continuing portfolio of Advanced Wound Care products.

Gross Profit and Margin

Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was $60.0 million, an increase of $3.4 million as compared to the prior year period. For the full year 2022, gross profit was $219.5 million, reflecting an increase of $4.2 million compared to the prior year period.

Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was 80.7%, compared to 84.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2021. For the full year 2022, MIMEDX reported gross margin of 82.0%, compared to 83.3% for the full year 2021.

Gross margins were negatively influenced in both the fourth quarter and for the full year 2022 by impacts from production variances, primarily due to lower production levels.

Operating Expenses

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2022 were $50.0 million compared to $53.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. SG&A expense during the fourth quarter 2022 included increased sales commissions and the impact of severance associated with restructuring activities. Lower compensation expense, principally due to year-end incentive adjustments, more than offset the impact of the increased costs.

For the full year 2022, SG&A expenses totaled $208.8 million, compared to $198.4 million for the prior year period. The increase was driven by higher travel expenses, sales commissions, bad debt expense and severance costs, all of which were partially offset by the reversal of share-based compensation expense associated with the severance activities and lower professional service expenses.

Research and development expenses were $5.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to $4.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher costs associated with our KOA clinical program. For the full year 2022, research and development expenses totaled $22.8 million compared to $17.3 million in 2021. In addition to the spend related to the KOA efforts, the increase in research and development expenses for the full year was also driven by costs associated with the launches of our recent products and higher personnel costs.

Investigation, restatement and related expense for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was an expense of $3.4 million compared to a benefit of $4.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021. For the full year 2022, investigation, restatement and related expenses totaled $12.2 million compared to $3.8 million in 2021.

Net losses for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2022, were $0.4 million and $30.2 million, respectively, compared to net income of $2.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021 and a net loss of $10.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $66.0 million of cash and cash equivalents compared to $87.1 million as of December 31, 2021 and $73.2 million as of September 30, 2022. The decrease during the year ended December 31, 2022 reflects payments of accrued compensation, which included the payment of annual employee incentives, and the payment of payroll taxes, some of which had been deferred under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. The decrease also reflects the initial payment to Turn Therapeutics in connection with our licensing and distribution agreement.

Financial Goals

The Company’s goal is to deliver net sales percentage growth in the low double-digits annually.

In 2023, the Company expects to see continued growth in both the wound and surgical end markets throughout the year, particularly in the hospital and wound care clinic sites-of-service, as well as a modest contribution from sales generated in Japan. However, in light of the ongoing uncertainty around potential changes to the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services reimbursement in the private physician office setting, the Company anticipates a continued challenging environment in this site-of-service during the year.

As previously communicated, the Company has goals to achieve a Wound & Surgical segment contribution margin at or above 30% of segment net sales and corporate expenses as a percentage of sales below 20%.

KOA Registrational Clinical Trial Details

The registrational trial for KOA, which is now underway, will study approximately 470 patients randomized into three arms: (1) a control group receiving a single intra-articular placebo injection; (2) a treatment group receiving a single intra-articular injection of 40 mg mDHACM; and (3) a treatment group receiving a single intra-articular injection of 100 mg mDHACM. Co-primary endpoints include statistically significant improvement in Pain and Function scores at six months, as measured on the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (“WOMAC”) Osteoarthritis Index. An additional six month follow-up evaluation is also included in the trial protocol, developed following extensive dialogue with the United States Food & Drug Administration and in partnership with the Company’s Contract Research Organizations.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to our GAAP results, we provide certain non-GAAP metrics including Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”), and Adjusted EBITDA. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding our performance. These measurements are not a substitute for GAAP measurements. Company management uses these Non-GAAP measurements as aids in monitoring our ongoing financial performance from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against comparable companies.

EBITDA is intended to provide a measure of the Company’s operating performance as it eliminates the effects of financing and capital expenditures. EBITDA consists of GAAP net (loss) income excluding: (i) depreciation, (ii) amortization of intangibles, (iii) interest expense, net, and (iv) income tax provision. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to provide a normalized view of EBITDA and our broader business operations that we expect to experience on an ongoing basis by removing certain non-cash items and items that may be irregular, one-time, or non-recurring from EBITDA. This enables us to identify underlying trends in our business that could otherwise be masked by such items. Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP net (loss) income excluding: (i) depreciation, (ii) amortization of intangibles, (iii) interest expense, net, (iv) income tax provision, (v) costs incurred in connection with the Audit Committee Investigation and Restatement (as defined in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K), (vi) share-based compensation, and (vii) impairment of intangible assets.
