MIMEDX Primed to Commence Pivotal Phase 3 Clinical Study Program of micronized dehydrated Human Amnion Chorion Membrane (mdHACM) in Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA), Targeting Potential Late-2026 Commercial Launch
Double-Digit Growth Objective in 2022 to be Driven by Treatment Transformation, Global Market Expansion and Ongoing Portfolio Innovation across Multimodal Placental Tissue Platform
Company to Present at 40th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on Wednesday, January 12 at 5:15 PM ET

MARIETTA, Ga., Jan. 10, 2022 -- MiMedx Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDXG) (“MIMEDX” or “the Company”), a transformational placental biologics company, today provided a recap of key 2021 accomplishments and outlined strategic milestones planned for 2022. The Company expects strong, double-digit growth in 2022 to be driven by treatment transformation, including advancement into the Surgical Recovery market, global expansion with the launch of EPIFIX® in Japan anticipated for mid-2022 as a near-term catalyst, and portfolio innovation across its multimodal placental tissue platform. These innovations mark the Company’s continued expansion into multiple therapeutic areas of significant unmet need.
Timothy R. Wright, MIMEDX Chief Executive Officer, commented, “2021 was a defining year for MIMEDX in which we advanced the therapeutic understanding of mdHACM as a potential blockbuster biologic. We believe that mdHACM has the potential to reduce pain and increase function in mild-to-moderate knee osteoarthritis, based in part on the clinically meaningful and statistically significant probability values (p-values) within the Pre-Interim Analysis Cohort of 190 patients in our Phase 2B KOA trial. We believe the findings from our Phase 2B trial have increased our probability of technical and regulatory success as we commence our Phase 3 KOA clinical study program this year. MIMEDX has pioneered an extensive body of scientific and clinical evidence and advanced our understanding of the underlying mechanism of action behind our proprietary PURION® tissue engineering. Our differentiated placental platform has the potential to transform medicine in large and high-growth markets with significant unmet needs, and more importantly, to improve people’s health and lives.”
Mr. Wright continued, “We believe that 2022 will be a transformational year for MIMEDX, and our vibrant commercial business positions us well for double-digit growth across multiple underpenetrated markets. We have the opportunity to change the practice of wound healing in Japan as we operationalize our commercial strategy for the mid-year launch of EPIFIX®, following expected reimbursement approval. We also plan to launch two new, organic products: AMNIOEFFECT™ and our Placental Collagen Matrix. The native and multimodal therapeutic properties of our PURION® processed placental tissue provide a vast range of organic product innovations, and we believe we have the leadership team in place to invigorate our Product Vitality Index, accelerate expansion of our leading product portfolio, and achieve our above-market growth targets.”




2021 Highlights
Received regulatory approval of EPIFIX® in Japan
Authored multiple peer-reviewed clinical, scientific and economic publications

Achieved double-digit top-line sales growth of continuing portfolio of products
Expanded our sales force, putting the right people in the right places
Furthered our scientific understanding of the significant therapeutic potential of mdHACM in KOA. The Company reviewed Phase 2B KOA clinical trial results, including p-values, additional study analyses, and the proposed path forward at its Investor Day on December 7, 2021.
2022 Anticipated Milestones
Achieve annual growth target across the Company’s vibrant commercial business
Expand the Company’s international footprint with the initial launch of EPIFIX® in Japan
Commence Phase 3 KOA program, with two clinical trials
Implement rigorous Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) standards throughout entire supply chain as a key market differentiator

Launch two new, organic products in the U.S.: AMNIOEFFECT™ and Placental Collagen Matrix, facilitating expansion into additional areas of significant unmet clinical need

2022 Outlook
The Company provides the following financial outlook for 2022:
Annual revenue growth of 11% to 14% in the Company’s continuing portfolio of products
Base is 2021 Advanced Wound Care (AWC)/Section 361 Adjusted Net Sales (estimated to range from $236 million to $240 million)
Contribution from individual drivers varies across quarters and years
Revenue Transition1 impact complete in fourth quarter of 2021
We expect 2022 growth rates to be lowest in first quarter, increasing thereafter:
1Q22: Mid-single digit percent growth
2Q22: High-single digit percent growth
3Q22: Mid- to high-teens percent growth
4Q22: High-teens to twenty percent growth
Research and Development (R&D) spend increasing from expected 2021 level of $17 million to $22 million
Gross margins slightly lower due to competitive dynamics and product mix
Expectations for growth assume full access to hospitals and health care provider facilities, as a continuation or escalation of access restrictions or lockdown orders resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic would adversely affect our results. These expectations additionally anticipate the mid-2022 launch of EPIFIX® in Japan, following expected reimbursement approval,



and the 2022 launch of the Company’s new AMNIOEFFECT™ and Placental Collagen Matrix product lines.
