Management Commentary
Parker H. “Pete” Petit, Chairman and CEO stated, “We are very pleased with our second quarter results. We exceeded the top end of our guidance and produced impressive earnings and cash flow. The second quarter was our 26th consecutive quarter of sequential revenue growth, the 25th of the last 26 quarters of meeting or exceeding our revenue guidance, and our 22nd consecutive quarter of positive Adjusted EBITDA. Our second quarter performance generated strong operating cash flow of $13.5 million, an 85% increase over prior year. We continued to make significant improvement in our collection of accounts receivable during the quarter, and we ended the quarter with a Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) of 72 which exceeded our internal target of 75.”

Bill Taylor, President and COO, said, “The second quarter was driven by the very solid performance of our sales organization. We gained continued momentum during the quarter and feel poised to deliver stronger performances in the third and fourth quarters. Adding additional fuel to this momentum is the performance of the three new products we launched during 2016: EpiCord®, our new dehydrated human umbilical cord allograft; AmnioFill®, the first product in the MiMedx placental collagen matrix product family; and OrthoFlo Lyophilized, an extension of the Company’s amniotic fluid product family. Each performed well during the quarter, and they are living up to our expectations for utilization in the market. We anticipate the trend these new products experienced in the first and second quarters of this year, will continue in future quarters.”
Petit commented on the status of the Company’s clinical trials, “In addition to the momentum that our sales force is gaining, our scientific and clinical functions are making terrific progress demonstrating the efficacy of our allografts. We have completed our fifteen-center multicenter Randomized Control Trial (RCT) evaluating the efficacy of our EpiFix allografts for the treatment of Venous Leg Ulcers (VLUs). The paper chronicling the study results is currently undergoing peer review by a major journal. We are looking forward to sharing these impressive results and conclusions later in the third quarter.”
Petit continued, “Our Plantar Fasciitis Phase 2B trial is progressing extremely well. We submitted applications to the FDA at the end of June requesting closure of the 2B trial, publishing of the interim results, and initiation of the Phase 3 trial for Plantar Fasciitis. Additionally, the Company will be completing the filing of two additional INDs in the biopharmaceutical area in the near future.”
Liquidity and Cash Flow
Cash on hand as of June 30, 2017, was $47.5 million, as compared to $34.4 million as of December 31, 2016. Cash from operations for the quarter was $13.5 million driven by improved collections of accounts receivable and improved inventory turns somewhat offset by the payment of $8.2 million in income taxes in the quarter. Cash used for investing activities for the quarter was comprised of $1.8 million in capital expenditures primarily in support of increased production capacity driven by projected demand. Net cash flow from financing activities for the quarter was $4.9 million driven by the exercise of stock options somewhat offset by the repurchase of company stock under our share repurchase plan.
Share Repurchase Program
During the quarter, the Company acquired $2.1 million in repurchased shares, and since the May 2014 inception of the program through June 30, 2017, the Company has acquired a total of $71 million in repurchased shares. On July 26, 2017, the MiMedx Board of Directors authorized an additional increase of $14 million to the Company’s Share Repurchase Program, bringing the total authorized to date to $100 million. “Our share repurchases have proven to be very wise investments for the Company,” noted Petit.
GAAP Earnings
The Company recorded Net Income of $8.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, or $0.07 per diluted common share, as compared to a Net Income of $2.0 million, or $0.02 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The Company recorded Net Income of $12.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, or $0.11 per diluted common share, as compared to a Net Income of $3.2 million, or $.03 per diluted common share, for the same period of 2016.
Gross margin for the quarter was 88.7% as compared to 87.1% in the prior year. Year to date gross margins were 88.3% as compared to 86.1 % in 2016. The improvement was driven by higher sales volume and improved manufacturing efficiencies and yield improvements, as well as the one-time inventory costs incurred in connection with the Stability acquisition that were reported during the same period of 2016.





Second quarter 2017 Research & Development (“R&D”) expenses were $4.7 million or 6.2% of Net Sales, an increase of $1.6 million over second quarter 2016 R&D expenses of $3.2 million. R&D expenses for the first 6 months of 2017 were $8.9 million or 6.0% of Net Sales, an increase of $3.3 over R&D expenses of $5.7 million for the same period of 2016. The increase was driven by greater investments in clinical trials.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the second quarter of 2017 were $55.3 million, a $12.5 million increase over second quarter of 2016 SG&A expenses of $42.8 million. SG&A expenses for the first six months of 2017 were $108.3 million, a $24.8 million increase over SG&A expenses of $83.4 million for the same period in 2016. Increases in SG&A were primarily due to the continuation of the buildup of the Company’s direct sales force in Wound Care and SSO sales channels, as well as legal costs.
The company recorded an income tax credit in the quarter of $1.0 million as compared to income tax expense of $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2016. The credit was due to a large compensation related discrete income tax benefit driven by a greater number of stock option exercises in the quarter.
Revenue Breakdown
The Company distinguishes revenue in two categories: (1) Wound Care and (2) Surgical Sports Medicine and OEM (SSO) applications. For the second quarter of 2017, Wound Care revenue was $54.7 million, representing a year over year increase of 30%, driven by continued sales force and market expansion. SSO revenue was $21.7 million, represents a 42% increase over prior year driven by sales force expansion and new product introductions.
Third Quarter and Full Year 2017 Guidance Highlights
MiMedx provided its revenue guidance for the third quarter of 2017, increased both the upper and the lower ends of its revenue guidance range for full year 2017, and increased the lower end of its guidance range for full year gross profit margins. The Company’s third quarter and full year 2017 guidance includes:
Third quarter of 2017 revenue forecasted to be in the range of $79 to $80 million
2017 revenue guidance increased to the range of $309 to $311 million
Gross profit margins for 2017 expected to be in the range of 87% to 88%
GAAP EPS for 2017 projected to be in the range of $0.18 to $0.20
Adjusted EPS* for 2017 projected to be in the range of $0.31 to $0.33
“Our first six months of 2017 was extremely strong and we are very confident in our ability to meet or exceed our 2017 expectations,” concluded Petit.
Earnings Call
MiMedx will host a live broadcast of its second quarter conference call on Thursday, July 27, 2017 at 10:30 a.m. eastern time. A listen-only simulcast of the MiMedx conference call will be available online at the Company’s website at www.mimedx.com. A 30-day online replay will be available approximately one hour following the conclusion of the live broadcast. The replay can also be found on the Company’s website at www.mimedx.com.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management has disclosed adjusted financial measurements in this press announcement that present financial information that is not in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). These measurements are not a substitute for GAAP measurements, although Company management uses these measurements as aids in monitoring the Company's on-going financial performance from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against other medical technology companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, see the accompanying tables to this release. Adjusted financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. Investors should consider adjusted measures in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

MiMedx Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliation
 
In addition to our GAAP results, we provide certain Non-GAAP metrics including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Gross
Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per share. We believe that the presentation of these measures provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding our performance. These measurements are not a substitute for GAAP measurements, although Company management uses these measurements as aids in monitoring the Company's on-going financial performance from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year on a regular basis and for benchmarking against other medical technology companies. Adjusted EBITDA consists of GAAP Net Income excluding: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) interest income and expense, (iii) income taxes, (iv) one time acquisition related costs, (v) the effect of purchase accounting due to acquisitions and (vi) share-based compensation expense. Due to the impact of the acquisition of Stability in January 2016 and the release of the valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset on reported tax expense in 2015 on results, we have decided to provide additional adjusted non-GAAP measures to provide comparability of normal ongoing operating results. Beginning in 2016, we have reported Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Share to normalize results for comparison purposes. Adjusted Gross Margin consists of GAAP gross margin excluding amortization of inventory fair value step-up. Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per share consists of GAAP net income excluding: (i) one time acquisition related costs, (ii) amortization of inventory fair value step-up, (iii) amortization of intangible assets and (iv) share-based compensation. Reconciliations of GAAP net income to Adjusted EBITDA, GAAP Gross Margin to Adjusted Gross Margin and GAAP Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Net Income per Share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 appear in the tables below (in thousands):
