MIMEDX GROUP, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015 AND 2014
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”) from interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation 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’’) 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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year.  The balance sheet at December 31, 2014, 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, 2014, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2015. 
The Company operates in one business segment, Regenerative Biomaterials, which includes the design, manufacture, and marketing of products and tissue processing services for the Wound Care, Surgical, Sports Medicine, Ophthalmic and Dental market categories. The Company's biomaterial platform technologies include tissue technologies, AmnioFix® and EpiFix®, and device technology, CollaFix™, which the Company has yet to commercialize.
2.
Significant Accounting Policies
Please see Note 2 to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, for a description of all significant accounting policies. 
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, customers' current creditworthiness, customer concentrations, age of accounts receivable balance and general economic conditions that may affect the customers' ability to pay. 
Inventories
Inventory is valued at standard cost, which approximates actual cost computed on a first-in, first-out basis, not in excess of market value. The Company assesses the valuation of its inventory on a periodic basis and makes adjustments to the value for estimated excess and obsolete inventory based on estimates about future demand. The excess balance determined by this analysis becomes the basis for the Company's excess inventory charge. The Company's excess inventory review process includes analysis of sales forecasts, managing product rollovers and working with operations to maximize recovery of excess inventory.
Revenue Recognition
The Company sells its products through a combination of a direct sales force and independent stocking distributors and representatives in the U.S. and independent distributors in international markets. The Company recognizes revenue when title to the goods 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 utilizes distributors or ships product directly to the end user, it recognizes revenue upon shipment provided all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. A portion of the Company's revenue is generated from inventory maintained at hospitals. For these products, revenue is recognized at the time

8



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.  
Patent Costs
The Company incurs certain legal and related costs in connection with patent applications for tissue-based products and processes. The Company capitalizes such costs to be amortized over the expected life of the patent to the extent that an economic benefit is anticipated from the resulting patent or alternative future use is available to the Company and are included in Intangible Assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company capitalized approximately $402,000 of patent costs during the first six months of 2015. The Company capitalized approximately $289,000 of patent costs during the first six months of 2014.
Treasury Stock
The Company accounts for the purchase of treasury stock under the cost method. Treasury stock which is reissued for the exercise of option grants and the issuance of restricted stock grants is accounted for on a first - in first - out (FIFO) basis.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements 
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs issued effective and not yet effective. In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue Recognition - Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) that requires companies to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control rather than when companies have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of a good or service. This update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein and requires expanded disclosures. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements. All other ASUs issued effective and not yet effective for the six months ended June 30, 2015, and through the date of this report, were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
3.
Liquidity and Management’s Plans
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $38,601,000 of cash and cash equivalents.  The Company reported total current assets of approximately $91,806,000 and current liabilities of approximately $19,461,000 as of June 30, 2015.  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 and fund its planned investing activities for the next twelve months.

4.
Short Term Investments
Short term investments consist of approximately $7,250,000 of FDIC insured certificates of deposit held with various financial institutions as of June 30, 2015.

(a)
On January 29, 2007, the Company acquired a license from Shriners Hospitals for Children and University of South Florida Research Foundation, Inc. in the amount of $996,000.  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. The Company is also obligated to pay a $50,000 minimum annual royalty payment over the life of the license. As of June 30, 2015, this license had a remaining net book value of approximately $159,000.

Total unrecognized compensation expense related to granted stock options at June 30, 2015, was approximately $10,382,361 and will be charged to expense ratably through May 2018. 
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 mid point between the weighted average time to vesting and the contractual maturity. The simplified method was used due to the Company's lack of sufficient historical data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded.  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:
 
Six Months Ended June 30,

Warrants
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had 42,400 common stock warrants outstanding with an exercise price of $1.09 representing compensation to consultants and advisors in connection with previous debt offerings. The warrants expire in December 2016 and are classified as equity.
Treasury Stock
On May 12, 2014, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to $10,000,000 of its common stock from time to time, through December 31, 2014. On December 12, 2014, the Board extended this program until December 31, 2015. On January 5, 2015, the Board increased the authorization under the program to $20,000,000, and on April 27, 2015 the Board increased the authorization from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000. The timing and amount of future repurchases, if any, will depend upon the Company's stock price, economic and market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations. The Company may initiate, suspend or discontinue purchases under the stock repurchase program at any time.
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company purchased 1,818,753 shares of its common stock for a purchase price of approximately $16,589,000 before brokerage commissions of approximately $52,000. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $7,828,000 remaining under the repurchase program.
Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company reissued 2,241,337 shares from the Treasury for restricted stock grants and stock option exercises, net of forfeitures, with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $17,066,000.
11.
Income taxes 

The effective tax rates for continuing operations of 3.7% and (0.0%) for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014, respectively, were determined using an estimated annual effective tax rate and after considering any discrete items for such periods. Due to a valuation allowance against the Company's U.S. deferred tax assets, the effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015, does not include the expense of the current period U.S. taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that a portion or none of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  After consideration of all the evidence, including reversal of deferred tax liabilities, future taxable income and other factors, management has determined that a full valuation allowance is necessary as of June 30, 2015. As a result, income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015, is primarily due to income tax expense in certain state jurisdictions.

As a result of anticipated profitability for the year and positive trends in the foreseeable future, the Company may release all or a portion of this valuation allowance by the end of 2015. However, the exact timing and amount of the valuation allowance released are subject to change based on the level of profitability that the Company is able to actually achieve for the year and its visibility into future period results. The potential release of this valuation allowance during 2015 would have a material impact on the Company's recorded tax expense (benefit) in the period of reversal. The Company will release this valuation allowance when management determines that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax asset will be realized.

FDA Untitled Letter, Draft Guidance and Related Litigation
FDA Untitled Letter
Initially, MiMedx processed its tissue allografts in only one form, which was a sheet form. In 2011, MiMedx introduced a micronized form of its sheet allografts.
The FDA has specific regulations governing human cells, tissues and cellular and tissue-based products, or HCT/Ps. An HCT/P is a product containing or consisting of human cells or tissue intended for transplantation into a human patient. If an HCT/P meets the criteria for regulation solely under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act (so-called “361 HCT/Ps”), no FDA review for safety and effectiveness under a drug, device, or biological product marketing application is required.
MiMedx believes that all of its tissue products qualify as 361 HCT/Ps. On August 28, 2013, however, the FDA issued an Untitled Letter alleging that the Company’s micronized allografts do not meet the criteria for regulation solely under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act and that, as a result, MiMedx would need a biologics license to lawfully market the micronized products.
In November 2013, the FDA clarified the basis for its position regarding the micronized products. Specifically, the FDA explained its belief that “[c]ryo-milling cut, dehydrated amniotic/chorionic membrane results in a micron-sized powder and the

15



loss of the tensile strength and elasticity that are essential characteristics of the original amniotic/chorionic tissue relating to its utility to function as a ‘physical membrane’ (i.e. covering, barrier).” The Company responded to the FDA that while it does not agree with the FDA’s position, it understands the FDA’s interest in further regulating this emerging technology. Accordingly, the Company proposed to the FDA that it would pursue the Investigational New Drug (“IND”) and Biologics License Application (“BLA”) process for certain micronized products, and, in parallel, also proposed to enter into negotiations with the FDA on a plan to transition the micronized products to licensed biological products and continue to market the micronized products under specific conditions.
On July 22, 2014, the Company filed its first IND application with the FDA. The application was allowed, paving the way for a Phase IIB clinical trial of its micronized product for a specified indication of use in anticipation of a BLA, which the Company expects to submit at a future date.  The clinical trial is expected to enroll approximately 150 patients in 10 - 20 clinical sites in the U.S. The Company initiated the trial in March of 2015.

The Company also requested a transition agreement to allow it to continue to market its current micronized products for certain specified uses while pursuing one or more BLAs. The FDA continues to assert that the current form of the Company’s micronized products are more than minimally manipulated and therefore are not eligible for marketing solely under Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act. The Company has conducted tests and has engaged independent laboratories to conduct tests that confirm that tensile strength and modulus of elasticity are not diminished by the process used by the Company to create its micronized products.

If the FDA does allow the Company to continue to market a micronized form of its sheet allografts, it may impose conditions, such as labeling restrictions and compliance with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (“cGMP”). It is also possible that the FDA will not allow the Company to market any form of a micronized product without a biologics license and could even require the Company to recall its micronized products. Revenues from micronized products comprised approximately 14% of the Company's revenues in 2014.

Draft Guidance

On December 22, 2014, the FDA issued for comment “Draft Guidance for Industry: Minimal Manipulation of Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products.” Essentially the draft guidance takes the same position with respect to micronized amniotic tissue that it took in the Untitled Letter to MiMedx 16 months earlier.

The period for submitting comments on the Draft Guidance expired on February 23, 2015. The Company has submitted comments to the Draft Guidance asserting that the Draft Guidance represents agency action that goes far beyond the FDA’s statutory authority, is inconsistent with existing HCT/ P regulations and the FDA’s prior positions, and is internally inconsistent and is scientifically unsound. Additionally, the Company asked the FDA to allow MiMedx to continue to market its micronized products until the guidance or regulations, as the case may be, have been fully vetted through a process of notice and comment rule making. Preliminarily, the FDA has indicated that it intends to issue for comment Draft Guidance on homologous use later this year and that industry and other interested parties will have an opportunity to comment on both guidance documents as a whole at that time.

If the FDA does allow the Company to continue to market a micronized form of its sheet allografts either prior to or after finalization of the Draft Guidance, it may impose conditions, such as labeling restrictions and compliance with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (“cGMP”). It is also possible that the FDA will not allow the Company to market any form of a micronized product without a biologics license even prior to finalization of the Draft Guidance and could even require the Company to recall its micronized products. Revenues from micronized products comprised approximately 14% of the Company's revenues in 2014.

Related Litigation

Following the publication of the Untitled Letter from the FDA regarding the Company’s micronized products in September 2013, the trading price of the Company’s stock dropped sharply and several purported class action lawsuits were filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers asserting violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to various statements and alleged omissions related to the Company’s belief that its products were 361 HCT/Ps, including its micronized products. These cases have now all been removed to, and consolidated in, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. By order dated December 9, 2013, the Court approved the appointment of a lead plaintiff and a lead counsel. A Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, containing substantially the same causes of action and claims for relief as the initial complaints, was filed on January 27, 2014. The case is currently in the discovery

16



phase. The Company currently believes that the outcome of this litigation will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
OIG Subpoena And Other Shareholder Litigation
In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG, in connection with a civil investigation into matters primarily related to the Company's sales and marketing activities. In March 2015, the Company received notice from the Department of Justice that it declined at that time to intervene in the qui tam action that gave rise to the issuance of the subpoena. The qui tam plaintiff had 120 days from the date of the Department of Justice’s notice to proceed with the case. The 120 day period has now passed without initiation of the lawsuit. Therefore, it is the Company’s belief that the plaintiff does not intend to pursue the case. Nevertheless, until the case is actually dismissed, the government could still opt to intervene in the qui tam action at a later date. In any event, the Company does not believe such an action would have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
 
On February 19, 2015, a separate purported class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit alleged violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to various statements and alleged omissions related to the Company’s receipt of the subpoena discussed above. On April 22, 2015, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed this purported class action lawsuit against the Company.
Patent Litigation
On April 22, 2014, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Liventa Bioscience, Inc. ("Liventa"), Medline Industries, Inc. ("Medline") and Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Inc. ("MTF") for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. In addition to the allegations of infringement of MiMedx's patents, the lawsuit asserts that Liventa and Medline knowingly and willfully made false and misleading representations about their respective products to providers, patients, and in some cases, prospective investors (“the Liventa Action”). The Liventa Action was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

MiMedx asserts that Liventa (formerly known as AFCell Medical, Inc.), Medline and MTF infringed and continue to infringe certain of the Company’s patents relating to the MiMedx dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane ("dHACM") allografts. MTF is the tissue processor while Liventa and Medline are the distributors of the allegedly infringing products. On May 30, 2014, defendants filed answers to the Complaint, denying the allegations in the Complaint. They also raised affirmative defenses of non-infringement, invalidity, laches and estoppel. MTF and Medline also filed counterclaims seeking declaratory judgments of non-infringement and invalidity. With the parties close to ending document discovery, fact depositions are currently being scheduled. Meanwhile, claim construction briefing is complete and the parties await the Court’s guidance on a date for the Markman hearing. In patent litigation, a Markman hearing is also called a claim construction hearing, in which a judge decides what the language of a patent means as a matter of law.

On May 16, 2014, the Company also filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Transplant Technology, Inc. d/b/a Bone Bank Allografts (“Bone Bank”) and Texas Human Biologics, Ltd. (“Biologics”) for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages (“the Bone Bank Action”). The Bone Bank Action was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas. This lawsuit similarly asserts that Bone Bank and Biologics infringed certain of the Company’s patents through the manufacturing and sale of their placental-derived tissue graft products. On July 10, 2014, defendants filed an answer to the Complaint, denying the allegations in the Complaint. They also raised affirmative defenses of non-infringement and invalidity and filed counterclaims seeking declaratory judgments of non-infringement and invalidity. The Bone Bank Action is in an advanced stage. The parties have (i) substantially completed document production; (ii) taken several fact depositions (both party and non-party); and (iii) completed claim construction briefing.

In addition to defending the claims in the pending district court litigations, defendants in each case, have challenged certain of the Company's patents in several inter-partes review proceedings to avoid the high burden of proof of proving invalidity by “clear and convincing evidence” in the district court litigations. An inter partes review is a request for a specialized group within the USPTO to review the validity of plaintiff’s patent claims. The Defendants in the Bone Bank Action have challenged the validity of the Company's 8,597,687 and 8,709,494 patents (the “’687” and “’494” patents, respectively); while the defendants in the Liventa Action have challenged the validity of the Company's 8,372,437 and 8,323,701 patents (the “’437” and “’701” patents, respectively). On June 29, 2015, the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (“PTAB”) denied defendants’ request for institutions of an IPR on all seven challenged grounds. That is, the PTAB decided defendants failed to establish a reasonable likelihood that defendant would prevail in showing any of the challenged claims were unpatentable. On July 10,

2015 the Patient Trial and Appeals Board issued an opinion allowing a review of the ‘687 patent to proceed, although on only two of the five challenged grounds. The Board also adopted MiMedx’s construction of the claims which will govern the Board’s review of the ‘687 patent.

The Defendants in the Bone Bank Action have moved to stay the litigation once again, despite the Court’s previous denial of such a stay, pending the outcome of the ‘687 patent inter partes review. The Company has also successfully defeated an attempt by defendants in the Liventa Action to stay that litigation -- also pending the outcome of the inter-partes review of the patents at issue in that case.

Finally, on March 2, 2015, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit against NuTech Medical, Inc. (“NuTech”) and DCI Donor Services, Inc. (“DCI”) for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. This lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. The lawsuit alleges that NuTech and DCI have infringed and continue to infringe the Company’s patents through the manufacture, use, sale, and/or offering of their tissue graft product. The lawsuit also asserts that NuTech knowingly and willfully made false and misleading representations about its products to customers and/or prospective customers. On April 17, 2015, NuTech filed a motion to dismiss the case purportedly for lack of patentable subject matter, which the Company has opposed. NuTech also filed a motion to stay the case pending disposition of the motion to dismiss, which MiMedx also opposed. Hearing on the motion to dismiss is scheduled for August 20, 2015. The Court has advised that it will issue its decision on the motion to dismiss on or before September 17, 2015, and therefore declined to rule on the motion to stay.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
MiMedx Group, Inc. 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 the Company's mission to give physicians products and tissues to help the body heal itself. The Company's biomaterial platform technologies include its tissue technologies, AmnioFix® and EpiFix®. The Company's tissue technologies are processed from human amniotic membrane that is derived from donated placentas. Through MiMedx's donor program, mothers delivering full-term Caesarean section births can elect in advance of delivery to donate the placenta in lieu of having it discarded as medical waste. MiMedx processes the human amniotic membrane utilizing its proprietary Purion® Process, to produce safe and effective allografts. MiMedx® is the leading supplier of amniotic tissue allografts, having supplied over 450,000 allografts for application in the Wound Care, Surgical, Sports Medicine, Ophthalmic and Dental sectors of healthcare.
Recent Events

Draft Guidance

On December 22, 2014, the FDA issued for comment “Draft Guidance for Industry: Minimal Manipulation of Human Cells, Tissues, and Cellular and Tissue-Based Products.” Essentially, the draft guidance takes the same position with respect to micronized amniotic tissue that it took in the Untitled Letter to the Company 16 months earlier. The period for submitting comments on the Draft Guidance expired on February 23, 2015. The Company has submitted comments to the Draft Guidance asserting that the Draft Guidance represents agency action that goes far beyond the FDA’s statutory authority, is inconsistent with existing HCT/ P regulations and the FDA’s prior positions, and is internally inconsistent and scientifically unsound. Additionally, the Company asked the FDA to allow MiMedx to continue to market its micronized products until the guidance or regulations, as the case may be, have been fully vetted through a process of notice and comment rule making. The Draft Guidance document evoked wide-ranging commentary from industry, many of which were similar to the Company’s comments. Preliminarily, the FDA has indicated that it intends to issue for comment Draft Guidance on homologous use later this year and that industry and other interested parties will have an opportunity to comment on both guidance documents as a whole at that time.

The FDA’s recent actions in regards to using draft guidance documents to effect change without notice and comment rulemaking have garnered the attention of Congress and industry.  In May 2014, Senators Lamar Alexander, Richard Burr, Orrin Hatch, and Johnny Isaakson wrote to then-FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg expressing concern over the use of draft guidances to make substantive policy changes.  One noted concern was that draft guidances are not being revised, finalized, or withdrawn in a timely manner, leaving the FDA-regulated entities without certainty as to what the FDA’s expectations are.  The Senators further remarked that “FDA issues guidance that seemingly does not take into account, or may even conflict with, the scientific community.”  May 6, 2014 Letter to Commissioner Hamburg at page 2.   On January 29, 2015, Senator Lamar Alexander and Senator Richard Burr jointly released their report, “Innovation for Healthier Americans: Identifying Opportunities for Meaningful Reform to Our Nation’s Medical Product Discovery and Development,” in which they express concern that the current FDA framework is stifling medical innovation and depriving patients of cutting-edge medical treatment. The report notes “[t]he disparity between the pace of scientific discovery and development outside of the FDA and the pace of growth in the FDA’s scientific knowledge threatens America’s position as a global leader in medical innovation.”   Report at page 7.  In addition, the House Energy and Commerce Committee’s Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations has initiated an inquiry into the FDA’s practices related to issuance of Untitled Letters and use of Guidance Documents to change rules and policies. The practices being investigated by the House Subcommittee are similar to those experienced by the Company in relation to its 2013 Untitled Letter concerning its micronized product line.
Sales to Government Accounts

In 2014, the Company provided products to Government accounts, including the Department of Veteran's Affairs, through a distributor relationship with AvKARE, Inc. ("AvKARE"), which is a veteran-owned General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) Contractor.   In 2014, the Company applied for, and in early 2015 received, its own FSS contract with a term through 2020, which allows the Company to sell directly to Government accounts. The initial term of the distribution agreement with AvKARE was due to expire in April 2015. In April 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to the distributor agreement with AvKARE to extend the distribution agreement through June 30, 2016, with the ability to further extend under certain circumstances. The amendment allows the Company to begin selling its products directly on the FSS. Ultimately, the Company intends to transition all of our Government sales to sales sold directly to Government accounts on the FSS.

OIG Subpoena And Related Shareholder Litigation
In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG, in connection with a civil investigation into matters primarily related to the Company's sales and marketing activities. In March 2015, the Company received notice from the Department of Justice that it declined at that time to intervene in the qui tam action that gave rise to the issuance of the subpoena. The qui tam plaintiff had 120 days from the date of the Department of Justice’s notice to proceed with the case. The 120 day period has now passed without initiation of the lawsuit. Therefore, it is the Company’s belief that the plaintiff does not intend to pursue the case. Nevertheless, until the case is actually dismissed, the government could still opt to intervene in the qui tam action at a later date. In any event, the Company does not believe such an action would have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
 
On February 19, 2015, a purported class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit alleged violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to various statements and alleged omissions related to the Company’s receipt of the subpoena discussed above. On April 22, 2015, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed this purported class action lawsuit against the Company.



21



Results of Operations Comparison for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015, to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014
Revenue
Total revenue increased approximately $20.1 million, or 79%, to $45.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $25.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in revenue as compared to the prior year is due to increased wound care sales of EpiFix® and surgical sales of AmnioFix® in both commercial and government accounts.
Tissue Processing Costs and Cost of Products Sold
Cost of products sold as a percentage of revenue were flat at 11% as compared to the prior year.
Research and Development Expenses 
The Company's research and development expenses (“R&D expenses”) increased approximately $0.3 million, or 14% , to $2.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015, compared to approximately $1.8 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily related to increased investments in scientific studies, clinical trials and personnel costs.

R&D expenses consist primarily of internal personnel costs, expenses of clinical trials, fees paid to external consultants, and the cost of supplies and instruments used in the Company's laboratories.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015, increased approximately $11.5 million to $32.7 million compared to $21.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Selling expense increases were driven by costs associated with expanding the Company's direct sales organization, increased commissions due to higher sales volume and an increase in share-based compensation. Additional spending increases included support costs related to medical reimbursement, accounting, information technology infrastructure to help manage the growth of the business, and legal costs due to patent litigation. Selling, General and Administrative expenses consist of personnel costs, professional fees, sales commissions, sales training costs, industry trade show fees and expenses, product promotion and product literature costs, facilities costs and other sales, marketing and administrative costs, depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation.
  
Results of Operations Comparison for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2015, to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
Revenue
Total revenue increased approximately $41.3 million, or 92%, to $86.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, as compared to $45.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The increase in revenue as compared to the prior year is due to increased wound care sales of EpiFix® and surgical sales of AmnioFix® in both commercial and government accounts.

Tissue Processing Costs and Cost of Products Sold
Cost of products sold as a percentage of revenue improved to 12% from 13% as compared to prior year. The improvement was due primarily to the increase in direct sales revenue, improved product mix and higher production rates that absorb a greater percentage of fixed manufacturing costs.

Research and Development Expenses 
The Company's R&D expenses increased approximately $0.7 million, or 22%, to $3.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to approximately $3.2 million in the prior year. The increase is primarily related to increased investments in clinical trials and personnel costs.





22



Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased approximately $25.0 million to $62.0 million compared to $37.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Selling expense increases were driven by costs associated with building a direct sales organization, and increased commissions due to higher sales volume. Additional spending increases included spending on support costs related to medical reimbursement, including the Company's reimbursement hotline; information technology infrastructure to help manage the growth of the business; and increased share-based compensation expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Revenue continues to increase quarter - over - quarter while management strives to maintain tight controls over spending. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $38.6 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company reported total current assets of approximately $91.8 million and total current liabilities of approximately $19.5 million at June 30, 2015, which represents a current ratio of 4.7 as of June 30, 2015. Management believes that its anticipated cash from operating and financing activities, and existing cash and cash equivalents as well as its investments in certificates of deposit will enable the Company to meet its operational liquidity needs and fund its planned investing activities for the next year.
On May 12, 2014, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to $10,000,000 of its common stock from time to time, through December 31, 2014. On December 12, 2014, the Board extended this program until December 31, 2015. On January 5, 2015, the Board increased the authorization under the program to $20,000,000, and on April 27, 2015, the authorization was further increased from $20,000,000 to $30,000,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company purchased approximately 1,818,753 shares of its common stock for a purchase price of approximately $16,589,000, before brokerage commissions of approximately $52,000 bringing the total amount spent under the program to approximately $22,172,000 since inception. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had approximately $7,828,000 remaining under the repurchase program.
The timing and amount of future repurchases, if any, will depend upon the Company's stock price, economic and market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other corporate considerations. The Company may initiate, suspend or discontinue purchases under the stock repurchase program at any time.

Discussion of cash flows
Net cash from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased approximately $7.5 million to approximately $7.1 million compared to $0.4 million used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, primarily attributable to the generation of net income, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable compared to a net loss for the previous year and the increase in adjustments to net income for share-based compensation.

23



Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015, was approximately $1.2 million compared to approximately $1.4 million for 2014. Funds were used to purchase equipment to expand production capacity and capitalize patent application costs.
Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015, increased approximately $11.0 million to $14.0 million compared to $3.0 million of cash used during the six months ended June 30, 2014. Cash flows used in financing activities during the six months include approximately $16.6 million for stock repurchases, partially offset by approximately $2.7 million from the exercise of stock options. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received approximately $1.7 million in total from the exercise of warrants and stock options and used approximately $4.6 million for stock repurchases.
Due to the material amount of non-cash related items included in the Company results of operations, the Company reports an Adjusted EBITDA metric which provides management with a clearer view of operational use of cash (see the table below). The Company's Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2015, was approximately $10.6 million which is an improvement of $7.7 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. The improvement was primarily the result of the generation of greater revenue and resulting net income compared to a net loss for the prior year. The Company's Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2015, was approximately $19.3 million which is an improvement of $14.5 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2014. The improvement was primarily the result of the generation of greater revenue and resulting net income compared to a net loss for the prior year.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. Non-GAAP financial measures are commonly used in the industry and are presented because management believes they provide relevant and useful information to investors. However, there are limitations to using these non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA is not indicative of cash provided or used by operating activities and may differ from comparable information provided by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, as an alternative to, or more meaningful than measures of financial performance determined in accordance with GAAP. The following table presents a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net income (loss), the most comparable financial measure reported under GAAP, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, (in thousands), respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
In preparing financial statements, the Company follows accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Company to make certain estimates and apply judgments that affect its financial position and results of operations. Management continually reviews the Company's accounting policies and financial information disclosures. A summary of significant accounting policies that require the use of estimates and judgments in preparing the financial statements was provided in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.  During the quarter covered by this report, there were no material changes to the accounting policies and assumptions previously disclosed.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For the effect of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable.

Item 4. 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"), the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its 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 Company management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's 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 the Company's 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 the Company's reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company has confidence in its internal controls and procedures. Nevertheless, management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company's disclosure procedures and controls or its 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 control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Following the publication of an Untitled Letter from the FDA regarding the Company’s micronized products in September 2013, the trading price of the Company’s stock dropped sharply and several purported class action lawsuits were filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers asserting violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to various statements and alleged omissions related to the Company’s belief that its products were 361 HCT/Ps, including its micronized products. These cases have now all been removed to, and consolidated in, the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. By order dated December 9, 2013, the Court approved the appointment of a lead plaintiff and a lead counsel. A Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, containing substantially the same causes of action and claims for relief as the initial complaints, was filed on January 27, 2014. The case is currently in the discovery phase. The Company currently believes that the outcome of this litigation will not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company received a subpoena from the Office of Inspector General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or OIG, in connection with a civil investigation into matters primarily related to the Company's sales and marketing activities. In March 2015, the Company received notice from the Department of Justice that it declined at that time to intervene in the qui tam action that gave rise to the issuance of the subpoena. The qui tam plaintiff had 120 days from the date of the Department of Justice’s notice to proceed with the case. The 120 day period has now passed without initiation of the lawsuit. Therefore, it is the Company’s belief that the plaintiff does not intend to pursue the case. Nevertheless, until the case is actually dismissed, the government could still opt to intervene in the qui tam action at a later date. In any event, the Company does not believe such an action would have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.
 
On February 19, 2015, a separate purported class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and certain of its executive officers in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The suit alleged violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to various statements and alleged omissions related to the

26



Company’s receipt of the subpoena discussed above. On April 22, 2015, the plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed this purported class action lawsuit against the Company.

On April 22, 2014, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Liventa Bioscience, Inc. ("Liventa"), Medline Industries, Inc. ("Medline") and Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Inc. ("MTF") for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. In addition to the allegations of infringement of MiMedx's patents, the lawsuit asserts that Liventa and Medline knowingly and willfully made false and misleading representations about their respective products to providers, patients, and in some cases, prospective investors (“the Liventa Action”). The Liventa Action was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia.

MiMedx asserts that Liventa (formerly known as AFCell Medical, Inc.), Medline and MTF infringed and continue to infringe certain of the Company’s patents relating to the MiMedx dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane ("dHACM") allografts. MTF is the tissue processor while Liventa and Medline are the distributors of the allegedly infringing products. On May 30, 2014, defendants filed answers to the Complaint, denying the allegations in the Complaint. They also raised affirmative defenses of non-infringement, invalidity, laches and estoppel. MTF and Medline also filed counterclaims seeking declaratory judgments of non-infringement and invalidity. With the parties close to ending document discovery, fact depositions are currently being scheduled. Meanwhile, claim construction briefing is complete and the parties await the Court’s guidance on a date for the Markman hearing. In patent litigation, a Markman hearing is also called a claim construction hearing, in which a judge decides what the language of a patent means as a matter of law.

On May 16, 2014, the Company also filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Transplant Technology, Inc. d/b/a Bone Bank Allografts (“Bone Bank”) and Texas Human Biologics, Ltd. (“Biologics”) for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages (“the Bone Bank Action”). The Bone Bank Action was filed in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas. This lawsuit similarly asserts that Bone Bank and Biologics infringed certain of the Company’s patents through the manufacturing and sale of their placental-derived tissue graft products. On July 10, 2014, defendants filed an answer to the Complaint, denying the allegations in the Complaint. They also raised affirmative defenses of non-infringement and invalidity and filed counterclaims seeking declaratory judgments of non-infringement and invalidity. The Bone Bank Action is in an advanced stage. The parties have (i) substantially completed document production; (ii) taken several fact depositions (both party and non-party); and (iii) completed claim construction briefing.

In addition to defending the claims in the pending district court litigations, defendants in each case, have challenged certain of the Company's patents in several inter-partes review proceedings to avoid the high burden of proof of proving invalidity by “clear and convincing evidence” in the district court litigations. An inter partes review is a request for a specialized group within the USPTO to review the validity of plaintiff’s patent claims. The Defendants in the Bone Bank Action have challenged the validity of the Company's 8,597,687 and 8,709,494 patents (the “’687” and “’494” patents, respectively); while the defendants in the Liventa Action have challenged the validity of the Company's 8,372,437 and 8,323,701 patents (the “’437” and “’701” patents, respectively). On June 29, 2015, the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (“PTAB”) denied defendants’ request for institutions of an IPR on all seven challenged grounds. That is, the PTAB decided defendants failed to establish a reasonable likelihood that defendant would prevail in showing any of the challenged claims were unpatentable. On July 10, 2015 the Patient Trial and Appeals Board issued an opinion allowing a review of the ‘687 patent to proceed, although on only two of the five challenged grounds. The Board also adopted MiMedx’s construction of the claims which will govern the Board’s review of the ‘687 patent.

The Defendants in the Bone Bank Action have moved to stay the litigation once again, despite the Court’s previous denial of such a stay, pending the outcome of the ‘687 patent inter partes review. The Company has also successfully defeated an attempt by defendants in the Liventa Action to stay that litigation -- also pending the outcome of the inter-partes review of the patents at issue in that case.

Finally, on March 2, 2015, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit against NuTech Medical, Inc. (“NuTech”) and DCI Donor Services, Inc. (“DCI”) for permanent injunctive relief and unspecified damages. This lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. The lawsuit alleges that NuTech and DCI have infringed and continue to infringe the Company’s patents through the manufacture, use, sale, and/or offering of their tissue graft product. The lawsuit also asserts that NuTech knowingly and willfully made false and misleading representations about its products to customers and/or prospective customers. On April 17, 2015, NuTech filed a motion to dismiss the case purportedly for lack of patentable subject matter, which the Company has opposed. NuTech also filed a motion to stay the case pending disposition of the motion to dismiss, which MiMedx also opposed. Hearing on the motion to dismiss is scheduled for August 20, 2015. The Court has advised that it will issue its decision on the motion to dismiss on or before September 17, 2015, and therefore declined to rule on the motion to stay.
