MiMedx Group, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires, “MIMEDX,” or the “Company”) is a is a pioneer and leader in placental biologics focused on addressing the needs of patients with acute and chronic non-healing wounds. The Company is also advancing a promising late-stage biologics pipeline targeted at decreasing pain and improving function for patients with knee osteoarthritis (“KOA”). To accomplish these goals, the Company operates as two defined, internal business units: Wound & Surgical and Regenerative Medicine. All of our products sold in the United States are regulated by the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”).
The Wound & Surgical business focuses on the Advanced Wound Care and Surgical Recovery markets through sales of the Company’s existing product portfolio and product development to serve these end markets. This business unit is responsible for substantially all sales of the Company’s Advanced Wound Care products, as well as the sale of the Company’s micronized and certain particulate products (collectively, the “Section 351 products”) internationally.
The Regenerative Medicine business focuses on progressing the Company’s placental biologics platform towards registration as a FDA-approved biological drug. Micronized dehydrated human amnion chorion membrane (“mDHACM”) is an injectable placental biologic product candidate in its late-stage pipeline targeted at achieving FDA approval for an indication to help decrease pain and improve function in patients suffering from KOA. Prior to May 31, 2021, this business unit was responsible for domestic sales of the Company’s Section 351 products. Regenerative Medicine does not currently generate revenue.
Additional information regarding the principal operations and results of these business units can be found in Note 13, Segment Information.
The Company’s business is focused primarily on the United States of America but the Company is pursuing opportunities for international expansion, with specific focus on the sale of its placental tissue products in Japan.
