NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 AND 2011

1.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASU’s”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year. The balance sheet at December 31, 2011, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

You should read these condensed consolidated financial statements together with the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on April 27, 2012, and by Amendment No. 2 filed on June 21, 2012.

The Company operates in one business segment, Biomaterials, which includes the design, manufacture, and marketing of products and amnion tissue processing for a variety of surgical applications using the Company’s proprietary biomaterials—CollaFix™, HydroFix®, EpiFix® and AmnioFix®.

2.	Significant accounting policies

Please see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, for a description of all significant accounting policies.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts due from customers for which revenue has been recognized. Generally, the Company does not require collateral or any other security to support its receivables.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the Company’s existing receivables. The Company determines the allowance based on factors such as historical collection experience, customer’s current creditworthiness, customer concentration, age of accounts receivable balance and general economic conditions that may affect the customer’s ability to pay. The Company has $116,000 and $20,000 in the allowance for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Actual customer collections could differ from estimates. The approximate provision during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $119,000, and there were approximately $23,000 of write-offs during the same period.

Table of Contents

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of actual cost or market, using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Work in process is calculated by estimating the number of units that will be successfully converted to finished goods, based upon a build-up in the stage of completion using estimated labor inputs for each stage and historical yields reduced by estimated usage for quality control testing. Idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, extra freight, and handling costs are expensed, as necessary, in cost of products sold and are not capitalized into inventories. Allocation of fixed production overheads is based on the normal capacity of production facilities.

Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodwill and intangible assets are tested at least annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized into Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations using the straight-line method over various periods depending upon the specific asset.

Debt Instruments with Detachable Warrants and Beneficial Conversion Features

According to ASC-470 Debt Instruments with Detachable Warrants, proceeds from the sale of debt instruments with stock purchase warrants (detachable call options) shall be allocated to the two elements based upon the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at the time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds so allocated to the warrants shall be accounted for as paid-in capital. The remainder of the proceeds shall be allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction. Also, the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the convertible instrument shall be recognized separately at issuance by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital.

Revenue Recognition

The Company sells its products primarily through a combination of independent stocking distributors and representatives in the U.S. and independent distributors in international markets. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the goods and risk of loss transfers to customers, provided there are no material remaining performance obligations required of the Company or any matters of customer acceptance. In cases where the Company utilized distributors or ships product directly to the end user, it recognizes revenue upon shipment provided all revenue recognition criteria have been met. A portion of the Company’s revenue is generated from inventory maintained at hospitals or with field representatives. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time the product has been used or implanted. The Company records estimated sales returns, discounts and allowances as a reduction of net sales in the same period revenue is recognized. The Company recorded approximately $88,000 and $22,000 for net sales returns provisions for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and there were approximately $135,000 and $0 of charges against the provision during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company recorded approximately $233,000 and $159,000 for net sales returns provisions for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and there were approximately $161,000 and $102,000 of charges against the provision during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these liabilities. The fair value of our short term and long term convertible debt approximates $4,667,000 which represents the face value less the unamortized discount of any beneficial conversion feature plus accrued but unpaid interest at September 30, 2012. The fair value of warrants issued in conjunction with placement fees was approximately $9,000 which represents the face value less the unamortized discount of any beneficial conversion feature at September 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

Net loss per share

Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares from stock options, warrants and convertible debt using the treasury stock method. For all periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share, as the inclusion of equivalent shares from outstanding common stock options, warrants and convertible debt would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

	Three months ended September 30,							Nine months ended September 30,
		2012			2011			2012			2011
Net loss		$	(4,219,372	)	$	(1,765,723	)	$	(6,057,092	)	$	(7,616,791	)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU’s. ASU’s not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Goodwill

The FASB issued updated authoritative guidance in September 2011 to amend previous guidance on the annual and interim testing of goodwill for impairment; the guidance became effective for MiMedx at the beginning of its 2012 fiscal year. The guidance provides entities with the option of first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If it is determined, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would still be required. Annual impairment tests are performed by the Company in the fourth quarter of each year. The adoption of this updated authoritative guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

The FASB issued updated authoritative guidance in May 2011 to amend fair value measurements and related disclosures; the guidance became effective for MiMedx at the beginning of its 2012 fiscal year. This guidance relates to a major convergence project of the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to improve International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and GAAP. This guidance results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between IFRS and GAAP. The guidance also changes some fair value measurement principles and enhances disclosure requirements related to activities in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The adoption of this updated authoritative guidance had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Intangibles – Goodwill and Other

In July 2012, the FASB issued an accounting standards update that gives an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. This guidance will be effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, which will be the Company’s fiscal year 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of the guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted:

In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that will require entities to disclose information about instruments (including derivatives) and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position or subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. These new provisions are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods, and should be applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. We do not expect this accounting standard to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3.	Liquidity and management’s plans

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $7,621,000 of cash and cash equivalents. The Company reported total current assets of approximately $16,140,000 and current liabilities payable in cash of approximately $5,003,000 after adjusting for the short term earn-out liability payable in MiMedx common stock in the second quarter of 2013. The Company believes that its anticipated cash from operating and financing activities and existing cash and cash equivalents will enable the Company to meet its operational liquidity needs, fund its planned investing activities and pay its debt when due for the next twelve months.

4.	Acquisition of Surgical Biologics, LLC

On December 21, 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“the Merger Agreement”) with Membrane Products Holdings, LLC and OnRamp Capital Investments, LLC, the owners of Surgical Biologics, LLC (“Surgical Biologics”), a privately held company headquartered in Kennesaw, Georgia. This transaction closed on January 5, 2011 and as a result we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Surgical Biologics in exchange for $500,000 cash, a total of $1,250,000 in 4% Convertible Secured Promissory Notes, and $7,087,500 in stock, represented by 5,250,000 shares of our common stock (525,000 of which were held in escrow for the purpose of securing the indemnification obligations outlined in the Merger Agreement). Contingent consideration shall be payable in a formula determined by sales for the years 2011 and 2012. As presented in the table below, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of contingent consideration related to the acquisitions are annualized revenue forecasts developed by the Company’s management and the probability of achievement of those revenue forecasts. The contingent consideration was initially valued at $7,404,700 and is shown in the schedule below as fair value of earn-out. We completed the acquisition of Surgical Biologics in an effort to extend our biomaterials product lines. As of December 31, 2011, the Company evaluated the contingent liability based on operating results for the year, and adjusted the earn-out liability to $7,410,503. On April 30, 2012, the Company issued 2,632,576 shares of its Common Stock valued at $3,185,223 in payment of the 2011 earn-out. As of September 30, 2012, the Company evaluated the 2012 contingent liability based on operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and adjusted the 2012 earn-out liability to $5,545,280.

In total, the 4% Convertible Promissory Notes were convertible into up to 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share (a) at any time upon the election of the holder of the Convertible Notes; or (b) at the election of the Company, at any such time as the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock (as reported by the OTCBB or on any national securities exchange on which the Company’s shares may be listed, as the case may be) closes at no less than $1.75 per share for not less than 20 consecutive trading days in any period prior to the maturity date. When converted, the Common Stock was available to be sold following satisfaction of the applicable conditions as set forth in Rule 144. The 4% Convertible Promissory Notes matured in eighteen (18) months and earned interest at 4% per annum on the outstanding principal amount payable in cash on the maturity date or convertible into shares of common stock of the Company as provided for above. The 4% Convertible Promissory Notes are secured by a security interest in the Intellectual Property, including the Patents and know-how and trade secrets related thereto, owned by, or exclusively licensed to, Surgical Biologics, LLC. In July, 2012, the Company settled the Convertible Promissory Notes by paying approximately $177,000 in cash and issuing 893,267 shares of MiMedx common stock.

The Company has evaluated the contingent consideration for accounting purposes under GAAP and has determined that the contingent consideration is within the scope of ASC 480 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity whereby a financial instrument other than an outstanding share, that embodies a conditional obligation that the issuer may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares, shall be classified as a liability if, at inception, the monetary value of the obligation is based solely or predominantly on variations in something other than the fair value of the issuer’s equity shares.

On January 29, 2007, the Company acquired a license from Shriners Hospitals for Children and University of South Florida Research Foundation, Inc. The acquisition price of this license was a one-time fee of $100,000 and 1,120,000 shares of common stock valued at $896,000 (based upon the estimated fair value of the common stock on the transaction date). Within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of approval by the FDA allowing the sale of the first licensed product, the Company is required to pay an additional $200,000 to the licensor. Due to its contingent nature, this amount is not recorded as a liability. The Company will also be required to pay a royalty of 3% on all commercial sales revenue from the licensed products.

(b)

License from SaluMedica, LLC (SaluMedica) for the use of certain developed technologies related to spine repair. This license was acquired through the acquisition of SpineMedica Corp.

(c)

On March 31, 2008, the Company entered into a license agreement for the use of certain developed technologies related to surgical sheets made of polyvinyl alcohol cryogel. The acquisition price of the asset was 400,000 shares of common stock valued at $2,596,000 (based upon the closing price of the common stock on the transaction date). The agreement also provides for the issuance of an additional 600,000 shares upon the Company meeting certain milestones related to future sales. On December 31, 2009, the Company completed the sale of its first commercial product and met its first milestone under this agreement. As a result, the Company issued an additional 100,000 shares of common stock to the licensor valued at $71,000. At September 30, 2012 and 2011, there are no additional amounts accrued for this obligation due to its contingent nature.

Intangible Asset Impairment

We tested for impairment of the Intangible Assets related to the Licenses for SaluMedica LLC. Spine Repair and Polyvinyl Alcohol Cryogel as of September 30, 2012 using an undiscounted cash flow methodology. The impairment was the result of the HydroFix product line experiencing slower than projected growth in each of its markets.

Because our test indicated that the carrying value of the assets related to HydroFix exceeded its fair value, an impairment loss of $1,798,495 was recognized and the intangible asset carrying amount was adjusted to its new basis. The Impairment was reported as a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and included in the reported Loss From Operations.

All other Intangible assets will be tested as of December 31, 2012 as per the date of our regular annual testing.

The Contingent Warrants have a term of five years from the date of issuance; however each is subject to automatic terminations as defined in the First Contingent Warrant and Second Contingent Warrant terms. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Contingent Warrants do not carry registration rights and may be exercised on a “cashless” basis. In the event of a change in control transaction on or prior to the First Measurement Date, then the Contingent Warrants shall be exercisable immediately prior to the closing of such change in control transaction. In the event (i) of a change in control transaction after the First Measurement Date and on or prior to the Second Measurement Date and (ii) the per share value of the consideration received by the holders of Common Stock in such change in control transaction is at least $1.75, the Second Contingent Warrant shall be null and void.

(d)

The First Contingent Warrant, (the “First Contingent Warrant”) is issued to each investor to purchase 25% of the number of shares of Stock purchased, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, provided that the First Contingent Warrant shall only be exercisable if the Company’s Gross Revenue as reported in the Company’s Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, do not equal or exceed $11,500,000 and further provided that such Warrant shall be null and void in the event that prior to issuance of such Audited Financial Statements (the “First Measurement Date”) the closing trading price of the Stock is at least $1.50 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days. As of March 31, 2012, the First Contingent Warrants vested due to the Company’s Gross Revenue not exceeding $11,500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, and due to the closing trading price of the stock not equaling or exceeding $1.50 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days.

Convertible Line of Credit with related party

On March 31, 2011, the Company and its Chairman of the Board and CEO (“the Lender”) entered into a Subscription Agreement for a 5% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Note (“Subscription Agreement”) and, in connection therewith, agreed to issue a 5% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Note (“Note”) in the amount borrowed by the Company, and certain contingent warrants as described in the table above.

The Lender agreed to issue a Revolving Secured Line of Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) to the Company of $1,300,000, after reductions for funds raised through other financing activities, to fund its working capital needs. The first borrowing in the amount of $800,000 was on March 31, 2011, resulting in the issuance of 400,000 contingent warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant. Additional borrowings in the amount of $500,000 were drawn during the three months ended June 30, 2011, resulting in the issuance of 250,000 contingent warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 per warrant.

The Company may repay and reborrow, provided there is no event of default, as needed. Collateral for the Credit Agreement includes (i) all of the Company’s intellectual property with the exception of intellectual property owned by Surgical Biologics, LLC, and (ii) all accessions to, substitutions for and replacements, products and proceeds thereof, as more particularly set forth in the Security and Intercreditor Agreement.

At the option of the Lender, the Note is convertible into the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to the quotient of the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of the Note as of the date of such election divided by $1.00 per share.

On February 28, 2012, 325,000 First Contingent Warrants vested to the Lender at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The vesting of the shares resulted in an additional beneficial conversion feature which requires recognition. According to GAAP, proceeds from the sale of debt instruments with stock purchase warrants (detachable call options) shall be allocated to the two elements based upon the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at the time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds so allocated to the warrants shall be accounted for as paid-in capital. The remainder of the proceeds shall be allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction. Also, the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the convertible instrument shall be recognized separately at issuance by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital. The amount of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature totaled approximately $550,000 net of previously recognized interest expense which has been recorded as a debt discount that will be charged to interest expense over the life of the convertible note.

On July 3, 2012, the 325,000 Second Contingent Warrants were voided as a result of ten consecutive trading days of the closing trading price of the Company stock being at least $1.75.

The issuance of the aforementioned securities was not registered in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Senior Secured Promissory Notes

From December 27 to December 31, 2011, the Company sold 5% Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) to individual accredited investors for aggregate proceeds of $5,000,000 and issued certain contingent warrants as described in the table above..

The aggregate proceeds included $500,000 of Notes sold to the Company’s Chairman of the Board and CEO, who had committed to lend the Company up to $1,500,000, to the extent other lenders did not subscribe to the Company’s debt offering. The terms of those advances were subject to amendment as authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors to be consistent with the final terms of the Company’s debt offering.

Table of Contents

In total, the principal of the Notes is convertible into up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) at $1.00 per share at any time upon the election of the holder of the note. The Notes mature on December 31, 2013, and bear interest at 5% per annum on the outstanding principal amount payable in cash on a quarterly basis, with all unpaid interest being due and payable on maturity. Unless the Company has repaid the applicable lender’s Notes in full prior to December 31, 2012, the Company must pay to each lender an additional interest payment in the amount of five percent (5%) of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such lender’s Notes as of December 31, 2012. The additional interest is being accrued on a monthly basis. At the election of the holder, unpaid interest is convertible into shares of Common Stock at $1.00 per share. Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Notes is available to be sold following satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Rule 144.

The Notes are secured by a first priority lien in all of the patents and other intellectual property owned by the Company and its subsidiaries. The maturity of the Notes may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain Events of Default as set forth in the Notes. The lien is at an equal rate for all note holders in payment and lien priority with the notes outstanding under the Company’s Line of Credit with Related Party Agreement dated March 31, 2011, (the “Prior Notes”), all of which are held by the Company’s Chairman & CEO. In order to effectuate that, to conform the description of the collateral and Events of Default in the Prior Notes to the description of the collateral and Events of Default in the Notes, and to clarify certain adjustments that would be applicable in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or similar event, the Amended and Restated Security and Intercreditor Agreement executed by the Company’s Chairman & CEO in connection with the Notes on December 27, 2011, superseded the Security and Intercreditor Agreement that was originally executed in connection with the Prior Notes and, on January 3, 2012, the parties also executed an amendment to certain of the other documents executed in connection with the Prior Notes.

Under the terms of the sale of the Convertible Senior Secured Promissory notes, each lender received a warrant (the “Conversion Warrant”) to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock that would be issuable upon conversion of the principal of such lender’s Note, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share, provided that such Conversion Warrant shall only be exercisable for the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued upon conversion of any portion of the principal of the lender’s Note that is, in fact, prepaid prior to maturity of the Notes. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Warrants is 5,000,000 shares. The Conversion Warrant expires on December 31, 2013. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Conversion Warrant do not carry registration rights. The Conversion Warrant must be exercised for cash.

According to GAAP, proceeds from the sale of debt instruments with stock purchase warrants (detachable call options) shall be allocated to the two elements based upon the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at the time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds so allocated to the warrants shall be accounted for as paid-in capital. The remainder of the proceeds shall be allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction. Also, the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the convertible instrument shall be recognized separately at issuance by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital. The amount of the warrants (i.e. the exercisable First Contingent Warrants) and beneficial conversion feature totaled $2,278,052 which has been recorded as a debt discount that will be charged to interest expense using the effective interest rate over the life of the convertible note.

In conjunction with the sale of the Convertible Senior Secured Promissory notes, the Company incurred a placement fee of $32,800 and issued 42,400 common stock warrants to the placement agents at an exercise price of $1.09 per share. The warrants expire in five years. The fair value of the warrants was determined to be approximately $15,000 using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation technique. The total direct costs of approximately $47,800 are recorded as deferred financing costs and are being amortized over the term of the Senior Notes using the effective interest method. Further, the placement agent warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity because they achieved all of the requisite conditions for equity classification in accordance with GAAP.

On July 3, 2012, 1,250,000 Second Contingent Warrants were voided which represented the tenth consecutive trading day of the closing trading price of the Company stock being at least $1.75.

9.	Common Stock Placements

October 2010 Private Placement

In October 2010, the Company commenced a private placement to sell common stock and warrants. From October 30, 2010, through December 31, 2010, the Company sold 2,405,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.00 per share and received proceeds of $2,337,020 net of $67,980 in offering costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company sold an additional 3,778,321 shares of Common Stock and issued an additional 1,889,161 warrants and received net cash proceeds of $3,730,587 net of $47,733 in offering costs. Under the terms of the offering, for each share purchased, the investor received one 5-year warrant to purchase the common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The terms of the warrant, (the “Callable Warrant”) are that for every two shares of common stock purchased, the holder is issued a 5-year warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The Callable Warrant does not carry registration rights and is callable by the Company at any time after the issuance if the closing sale price of the Stock exceeds $1.75 for fifteen (15) or more consecutive trading days. Upon written notice, the Company may redeem the Callable Warrant at a price of $0.01 per share. Additionally, the Company issued a First Contingent Warrant (“First Contingent Warrant”) and a Second Contingent Warrant (“Second Contingent Warrant”) to Purchase Common Stock.

The First Contingent Warrant vested during the second quarter resulting in the issuance of 1,672,742 warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

The warrants met all the requirements for equity classification under GAAP and are recorded in stockholders’ equity.

The Second Contingent Warrant was issued to each investor to purchase 25% of the number of shares of Stock purchased, at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, provided that the Second Contingent Warrant shall only be exercisable if the Company’s Gross Revenues as reported in the Company’s Audited Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, do not equal or exceed $31,150,000 and further provided that such Warrant shall be null and void in the event that prior to issuance of such Audited Financial Statements (the “Second Measurement Date”) the closing trading price of the Stock is at least $1.75 per share for ten or more consecutive trading days.

On July 3, 2012, 1,672,742 Second Contingent Warrants were voided which represented the tenth consecutive trading day of the closing trading price of the Company stock being at least $1.75.

In July 2012, the Company decided to exercise its right to call approximately 3,345,000 warrants issued to investors in conjunction with the October 2010 Private Placement. As a result of calling the warrants, the Company raised approximately $4,900,000 and issued 3,288,733 shares of MiMedx common stock as of August 3, 2012. The balance of 56,750 warrants were repurchased at $.01 per share.

The Company’s Chairman and CEO invested $1,006,664 in the October 2010 Private Placement including the investment of principal and accrued interest from the October 2010 Bridge note converted under the same terms as the Private Placement, receiving 503,332 warrants with an exercise price of $1.50, 251,666 First Contingent warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 and 251,666 Second Contingent warrants at an exercise price of $0.01 as per the aforementioned terms of the offering. The First Contingent Warrants vested and were exercised in the second quarter. The Second Contingent warrants were voided on July 3, 2012 which represented the tenth consecutive trading day of the closing trading price of the Company stock being at least $1.75. A total of 503,332 Callable Warrants were exercised during the period at $1.50 per share.

In connection with the October 2010 Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement that provides “Piggy-Back” registration rights to each investor.

Stock Incentive Plans

The Company has three share-based compensation plans: the MiMedx Group, Inc. Assumed 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), the MiMedx Inc. 2007 Assumed Stock Plan (the “Assumed 2007 Plan”) and the MiMedx Group Inc. Amended and Restated Assumed 2005 Stock Plan (the “Assumed 2005 Plan”) which provide for the granting of qualified incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation awards and restricted stock awards to employees, directors, consultants and advisors. The awards are subject to a vesting schedule as set forth in each individual agreement. The Company intends to use only the 2006 Plan to make future grants. The number of assumed options under the Assumed 2005 Plan and Assumed 2007 Plan outstanding at September 30, 2012 totaled 375,000. On May 10, 2012, the Board of Directors approved 4,000,000 additional shares to be made available under the 2006 Plan, bringing the maximum number of shares of common stock which can be issued under the 2006 Plan to 16,500,000 at September 30, 2012.

Total unrecognized compensation expense related to granted stock options at September 30, 2012, was approximately $4,989,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

The fair value of options granted by the Company is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model that uses assumptions for expected volatility, expected dividends, expected term, and the risk-free interest rate. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of peer companies and other factors estimated over the expected term of the options. The term of employee options granted is derived using the “simplified method” which computes expected term as the average of the sum of the vesting term plus the contract term. The term for non-employee options is generally based upon the contractual term of the option. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the period of the expected term or contractual term as described.

The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model are set forth in the following table:

	Nine months ended September 30,
	2012			2011
Expected volatility		45.75 - 64.3	%		57.3 - 57.8	%
Expected life (in years)		6			6
Expected dividend yield		—			—
Risk-free interest rate		0.62% - 1.62	%		0.93% - 2.24	%

The weighted-average grant date fair value for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was approximately $0.89.

Warrants

The Company grants common stock warrants in connection with equity share purchases by investors as an additional incentive for providing long term equity capital to the Company and as additional compensation to consultants and advisors. The warrants are granted at negotiated prices in connection with the equity share purchases and at the market price of the common stock in other instances. The warrants have been issued for terms of five years.

(a)

The Company repurchased the callable warrants at $0.01 per share.

Warrants may be exercised in whole or in part by:

notice given by the holder accompanied by payment of an amount equal to the warrant exercise price multiplied by the number of warrant shares being purchased; or

election by the holder to exchange the warrant (or portion thereof) for that number of shares equal to the product of (a) the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the warrant (or portion) and (b) a fraction, (x) the numerator of which is the market price of the shares at the time of exercise minus the warrant exercise price per share at the time of exercise and (y) the denominator of which is the market price per share at the time of exercise.

These warrants are not mandatorily redeemable, do not obligate the Company to repurchase its equity shares by transferring assets or issue a variable number of shares.

The warrants require that the Company deliver shares as part of a physical settlement or a net-share settlement, at the option of the holder, and do not provide for a net-cash settlement.

All of our warrants are classified as equity as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

11.	Income taxes

The Company has incurred net losses since its inception and, therefore, no current income tax liabilities have been incurred for the periods presented. Due to the Company’s losses, management has established a valuation allowance equal to the amount of net deferred tax assets since management cannot determine that realization of these benefits is more likely than not.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

MiMedx Group, Inc. ("MiMedx Group") is an integrated developer, manufacturer and marketer of patent-protected regenerative biomaterials and bioimplants processed from human amniotic membrane.

"Innovations in Regenerative Biomaterials" is the framework behind our mission to give physicians products and tissues to help the body heal itself. Our biomaterial platform technologies include the device technologies HydroFix® and CollaFix™, and our tissue technologies, AmnioFix® and EpiFix®. Our tissue technologies, processed from the human amniotic membrane, utilize our proprietary Purion® process that was developed by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Surgical Biologics, to produce a safe, effective and minimally manipulated implant.

Recent Events

During the period the Company raised approximately $4,933,100 from Callable Warrants issued in the October 2010 Private Placement resulting in a net cash balance of approximately $7,621,226 as of September 30, 2012.

Also during the period the Company Voided a total of approximately 3,245,000 Second Contingent Warrants issued in the October 2010 Private Placement and in connection with the Senior Secured Promissory Notes.

On July 5, 2012, the Company paid approximately $177,126 in cash and issued 893,267 shares of common stock in full payment of the Convertible Secured Promissory Notes related to the acquisition of Surgical Biologics.

Results of Operations comparison for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011

Revenue

Total revenue increased approximately $5,802,000 to $7,954,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2,152,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in revenue as compared to the prior year is due primarily to increased sales of our amniotic membrane tissue products, EpiFix® and AmnioFix®. The Company experienced strong demand in the Spine, Wound Care, Ophthalmology, Sports Medicine and Orthopedics markets. Increased demand for the Spine, Orthopedic and Sports Medicine allografts was a result of growth in business with the Company’s indirect sales force which consists of independent sales agents and distributors. This growth over the prior period was driven by the addition of certain distributors as well as the continued expansion and growth of our existing distribution network. The growth in Wound and to a lesser degree Sports Medicine was driven by the addition of a direct sales force in the period focusing on Government accounts. The sales executives hired have extensive experience in the wound care sector. This is the first quarter where wound care market shipments exceeded spine, orthopedics and sports medicine since the acquisition of Surgical Biologics.

Table of Contents

Tissue Processing Costs and Cost of Products Sold

Cost of products as a percentage of revenue improved to 17.9% from 41.2% as compared to prior year. The improvement was due to the increase in revenue as well as product mix. The Company more than doubled the number of tissue processors and increased the number of recovery technicians in support of the increased demand for tissue. Processing efficiency was impacted by the need to train the new employees but is expected to improve in subsequent periods. Personnel costs represent approximately $905,000 of total manufacturing, quality assurance and regulatory spending for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Beginning in 2012, the Company decided to allocate both depreciation expense and share-based compensation to each functional area. These expenses were reclassified in the prior year to maintain comparability. The amount of depreciation expense in cost of products sold was approximately $42,000 and $26,000, and the amount of share-based compensation in cost of products sold was $12,000 and $18,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses (“R&D expenses”) increased approximately $277,000 or 49.4% to $839,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to approximately $562,000 in the prior year. The increase is primarily related to increased investments in clinical trials and patent related costs. During the most recent quarter, the Company spent approximately $165,000 on clinical studies. Approximately $209,000, or 24.9%, of R&D expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were attributable to personnel costs, compared to approximately $199,000 or 35.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Additionally, as described above in Cost of Products Sold, beginning in 2012, we decided to allocate both depreciation expense and share-based compensation expense to other functional areas, and have reclassified prior year amounts to maintain comparability. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded approximately $30,000 and $31,000 for depreciation expense and approximately $71,000 and $45,000 for share-based compensation expense, respectively, to research and development.

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of internal personnel costs, fees paid to external consultants, and supplies and instruments used in our laboratories. During the quarter, the Company was granted 1 US patent for the hydrogel technology and 2 European patents for the collagen technology. Additionally, we filed 11 applications during the most recent quarter, including 1 non-provisional application for collagen technology, 6 non-provisional applications for amnion technology, and 4 provisional applications for amnion.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012, increased approximately $3,850,000 to $6,206,000 compared to $2,356,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Selling expense increases were driven by costs associated with building our direct sales organization for government accounts and to a lesser degree our commercial direct sales organization as well as increased commissions due to higher sales volume. Increased spending on support costs related to medical reimbursement including our 24-hour reimbursement hotline, our information technology infrastructure to help manage the growth of the business, increased share based compensation expense and a provision for anticipated costs associated with its management incentive program. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs, professional fees, sales commissions, sales training costs, industry trade show fees and expenses, product promotions and product literature costs, facilities costs and other sales, marketing and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation. Personnel costs represent approximately $3,228,000 or 52.0% of total Selling, General and Administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2012.

Historically, the Company has reported depreciation and share-based compensation expense as part of selling, general and administrative expense. The Company decided to report these expenses in each functional area in order to more accurately present all of the costs attributable to each functional area. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a total of approximately $123,000 and $99,000 in depreciation expense allocated to each functional area per the table below. The overall $24,000 increase in depreciation was attributable to purchases of production equipment to support the revenue growth. We depreciate our assets on a straight-line basis, principally over five to seven years.

Table of Contents

The following table shows the allocation of depreciation for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, to operating departments:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
Depreciation expense included in:	2012		2011
Cost of products sold	$	41,760	$	25,594
Research and development		29,804		31,480
Selling, general and administrative		51,370		41,915
	$	122,934	$	98,989

Share-based compensation for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, was approximately $670,000 and $286,000, respectively, an increase of approximately $384,000 or 134.3%. Increased employee stock option grants reflecting management’s philosophy of aligning employee compensation with investor objectives was the primary reason for the increase in expense. The following table shows the allocation of share-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, to operating departments:

	Three Months Ended September 30,
Share-based compensation included in:	2012		2011
Cost of products sold	$	11,643	$	17,549
Research and development		70,754		44,830
Selling, General and administrative		587,072		223,359
	$	669,469	$	285,738

We recorded approximately $450,000 and $334,000 in amortization expense related to intangible assets in the three months ending September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in amortization expense in the most recent quarter was a result of initiating amortization expense related to the acquired Research and Development costs associated with our micronized EpiFix® product. After completing the developmental stage, we began selling the micronized product in early 2012, and recorded amortization expense of $90,000 during the most recent quarter. We amortize our intangible assets over a period of three to fourteen years, which we believe represents the remaining useful lives of the patents underlying the licensing rights and intellectual property. We do not amortize goodwill but we test at least annually our goodwill for impairment and periodically evaluate other intangibles for impairment based on events or changes in circumstances as they occur.

Intangible Asset Impairment

Because our test indicated that the carrying value of the assets related to HydroFix exceeded its fair value, an impairment loss of approximately $1,799,000 was recognized and the intangible asset carrying amount was adjusted to its new basis. The Impairment was reported as a separate line item in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and included in the reported Loss From Operations.

All other intangible assets will be tested as of December 31, 2012 as per the date of our regular annual testing.

Fair value Adjustment of Earnout Liability

As of September 30, 2012, the Company evaluated the 2012 contingent liability associated with the acquisition of Surgical Biologics, LLC. Based upon operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and an estimate of fourth quarter tissue related revenue, the Company recorded a fair value adjustment of $1,320,000 and increased the 2012 earn-out liability to $5,545,280.

Net Interest Expense

We recorded financing and net interest expense of approximately $585,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with approximately $113,000 of financing and net interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase of approximately $472,000 is primarily due to interest related to our Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Notes, which were issued during the last quarter of 2011. The following table summarizes the interest charges for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011:

Results of Operations comparison for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

Revenue

Total revenue increased approximately $11,419,000 to $16,544,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $5,125,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in revenue as compared to the prior year is due primarily to increased sales of our amniotic membrane tissue products, EpiFix® and AmnioFix®. The Company experienced strong demand in the Spine, Wound Care, Ophthalmology, Sports Medicine and Orthopedics markets. Increased demand for the Spine, Orthopedic and Sports Medicine allografts was a result of growth in business with the Company’s indirect sales force which consists of independent sales agents and distributors. This growth over the prior period was driven by the addition of certain distributors as well as the continued expansion and growth of our existing distribution network. The growth in Wound and to a lesser degree Sports Medicine was driven by the addition of a direct sales force in the period focusing on Government accounts. The sales executives hired have extensive experience in the wound care sector. On a year to date basis, the Spine, Orthopedics and Sports Medicine market shipments exceed shipments into the wound care market.

Tissue Processing Costs and Cost of Products Sold

Cost of products as a percentage of revenue improved to 21.2% from 47.6% as compared to prior year. The improvement was due primarily to the increase in revenue and product mix. During the second quarter the Company increased its clean room capacity from one line to three lines. In the third quarter that Company more than doubled the number of tissue processors to fully staff the new production lines. The expansion of production capacity was driven by increased demand for processed tissue. The new hires were given extensive training during the third quarter resulting in increasing daily processing rates over the course of the quarter. It is anticipated that production efficiencies will improve in subsequent quarters for these new hires. Personnel costs represent approximately $1,918,000 or 54.8% of total manufacturing, quality assurance and regulatory spending for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Beginning in 2012, the Company decided to allocate both depreciation expense and share-based compensation to each functional area. These expenses were reclassified in the prior year to maintain comparability. The amount of depreciation expense in cost of products sold was approximately $115,000 and $78,000, and the amount of share-based compensation in cost of products sold was $65,000 and $72,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses (“R&D expenses”) decreased approximately $567,000 or 24.5% to $1,749,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to approximately $2,316,000 in the prior year. The decrease is primarily related to the closure of our Tampa research facility in mid-2011, along with decreased spending on animal studies for our CollaFix™ and HydroFix® products. Approximately $542,000, or 31.0%, of R&D expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 were attributable to personnel costs, compared to approximately $620,000 or 26.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Development and testing costs were approximately $94,000 and $497,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. This decrease of approximately $403,000 is a result of lower costs in animal studies related to our CollaFix™ and HydroFix® products. Additionally, as described above in Cost of Products Sold, beginning in 2012, we decided to allocate both depreciation expense and share-based compensation expense to other functional areas, and have reclassified prior year amounts to maintain comparability. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded approximately $90,000 and $91,000 for depreciation expense, respectively, and approximately $218,000 and $229,000 for share-based compensation expense, respectively, to research and development.

Our research and development expenses consist primarily of internal personnel costs, fees paid to external consultants, and supplies and instruments used in our laboratories. During the current year, the Company filed 3 international patent applications for the amniotic tissue technology and 1 international patent application for the collagen technology. The Company also filed 11 US patent applications, including 6 non-provisional applications for the amnion technology, 4 provisional applications for the amnion technology and 1 non-provisional application for the collagen technology. Additionally, during the current year the Company was granted 3 US patents for the hydrogel technology, 1 US patent for the collagen technology, and 2 European patents for the collagen technology.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, increased approximately $4,868,000 or 63.3% to $12,561,000 compared to $7,693,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Selling expense increases were driven by costs associated with building our direct sales organization for government accounts and to a lesser degree our commercial direct sales organization as well as increased commissions due to higher sales volume. Increased spending on support costs related to medical reimbursement including our 24-hour reimbursement hotline, our information technology infrastructure to help manage the growth of the business, increased share based compensation expense and a provision for anticipated costs associated with its management incentive program. General and administrative expenses consist of personnel costs, professional fees, sales commissions, sales training costs, industry trade show fees and expenses, product promotions and product literature costs, facilities costs and other sales, marketing and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation. Personnel costs represent approximately $5,459,000 or 43.5% of total Selling, General and Administrative expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to approximately $2,335,000 or 30.4% in the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Historically, the Company has reported depreciation and share-based compensation expense as part of selling, general and administrative expense. The Company decided to report these expenses in each functional area in order to more accurately present all of the costs attributable to each functional area. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded a total of approximately $354,000 and $331,000 in depreciation expense allocated to each functional area per the table below. The overall $23,000 increase in depreciation was attributable to the purchase of additional production and office equipment and leasehold build-out to support our revenue growth and additional staff. We depreciate our assets on a straight-line basis, principally over five to seven years.

Table of Contents

The following table shows the allocation of depreciation for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, to operating departments:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
Depreciation expense included in:	2012		2011
Cost of products sold	$	114,729	$	78,350
Research and development		90,491		90,694
Selling, general and administrative		149,206		161,808
	$	354,426	$	330,852

Share-based compensation for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, was approximately $1,756,000 and $1,317,000, respectively, an increase of approximately $439,000 or 33.3%. Increased employee stock option grants reflecting management’s philosophy of aligning employee compensation with investor objectives was the primary reason for the increase in expense. The following table shows the allocation of share-based compensation for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, to operating departments:

	Nine Months Ended September 30,
Share-based compensation included in:	2012		2011
Cost of products sold	$	65,132	$	71,570
Research and development		217,885		229,401
Selling, General and administrative		1,472,652		1,016,443
	$	1,755,669	$	1,317,414

We recorded approximately $1,118,000 and $1,002,000 in amortization expense related to intangible assets in the nine months ending September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase of approximately $116,000 is the result of additional amortization recognized in the current year related to our development costs of our micronized EpiFix® product that we began selling in early 2012. We amortize our intangible assets over a period of three to fourteen years, which we believe represents the remaining useful lives of the patents underlying the licensing rights and intellectual property. We do not amortize goodwill but we test at least annually our goodwill for impairment and periodically evaluate other intangibles for impairment based on events or changes in circumstances as they occur.

Intangible Asset Impairment

Because our test indicated that the carrying value of the assets related to HydroFix exceeded its fair value, an impairment loss of approximately $1,799,000 was recognized and the intangible asset carrying amount was adjusted to its new basis. The Impairment was reported as a separate line item in the Statement of Operations and included in the reported Loss From Operations.

All other Intangible assets will be tested as of December 31, 2012 as per the date of our regular annual testing.

Fair value Adjustment of Earnout Liability

Net Interest Expense

We recorded financing and net interest expense of approximately $1,673,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with approximately $292,000 of financing and net interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase of approximately $1,382,000 is primarily due to interest related to our Convertible Senior Secured Promissory Notes, which were issued during the last quarter of 2011. The following table summarizes the interest charges for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2012:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Revenue continues to increase quarter over quarter while management maintains tight controls over spending. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $7,621,000 of cash and cash equivalents. The Company reported total current assets of approximately $16,140,000 at September 30, 2012 and total current liabilities payable in cash of approximately $5,003,000 at September 30, 2012, after adjusting for the short term earn-out liability payable in MiMedx common stock in the second quarter of 2013. Additionally, the current liabilities include a convertible line of credit of approximately $1,174,000 which is due to be paid in December 2012 but can be extended for an additional 12 months with a one-time payment of 5% of the principal balance due, or $65,000, in December 2012. Therefore the current liabilities after adjustment for the earn-out and the convertible line of credit are approximately $3,894,000 which results in a current ratio of 4.14. The Company believes that its anticipated cash from operating and financing activities and existing cash and cash equivalents will enable the Company to meet its operational liquidity needs, fund its planned investing activities and pay its debt when due for the next twelve months.

Contractual Obligations

Contractual obligations associated with our ongoing business activities are expected to result in cash payments in future periods. The table below summarizes the amounts and estimated timing of these future cash payments as of September 30, 2012:

	Payments due by period
Contractual Obligations		TOTAL		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		More than 5 years

Discussion of cash flows

Net cash used in operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, decreased approximately $2,548,000 to $2,461,000 compared to $5,009,000 used in operating activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, primarily attributable to our increased sales activity, improved gross margins and reduced spending in research and development.

Table of Contents

Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, decreased approximately $482,000 to $402,000 compared to $884,000 used in investing activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The decrease was due to the acquisition of Surgical Biologics in 2011 and no acquisitions in 2012.

Net cash flows from financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased approximately $1,182,000 to $6,372,000 compared to $5,190,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2011. Cash flows from financing activities during the current year include approximately $5,925,000 received from the exercise of warrants, $885,000 received from the exercise of stock options, $427,000 in payments related to the acquisition of Surgical Biologics, and $11,000 in payments on an equipment lease.

Due to the material amount of non-cash related items included in the Company results of operations, the Company has developed an Adjusted EBITDA metric which provides management with a clearer view of operational use of cash (see the table below). The Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2012 was approximately $726,000 which is an improvement of approximately $1,660,000 as compared to the prior year quarter. This improvement was the result of increased revenue, improved gross margins and reduced spending in research and development.

We use various numerical measures in investor conference calls, investor meetings and other forums which are or may be considered “Non-GAAP financial measures” under Regulation G. We have provided below for your reference, supplemental financial disclosure for these measures, including the most directly comparable GAAP measure and an associated reconciliation. The following table provides reconciliation of reported Net Loss on a GAAP basis to Adjusted EBITDA defined as Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Share-Based Compensation:

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2012, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

We have confidence in our internal controls and procedures. Nevertheless, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure procedures and controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors or intentional fraud. An internal control system, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of such internal controls are met. Further, the design of an internal control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all internal control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all our control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
