\nCompany Expects to Realize Annualized Savings of Approximately $40 Million

MARIETTA, Ga., April 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MiMedx Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MDXG) (\u201cMIMEDX\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d) today announced a series of cost reduction initiatives intended to prioritize growth opportunities, streamline operations and significantly reduce operating expenses. As part of these changes, the position of Chief Operating Officer, held by Ricci Whitlow, has been eliminated.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn behalf of the Board and management team, I want to thank Ricci for her innumerable contributions to MIMEDX and her exceptional leadership in helping to build and scale our operations,\u201d stated Joseph H. Capper, MIMEDX Chief Executive Officer. \u201cRicci joined the Company at a pivotal time in the organization\u2019s history and successfully navigated us through several regulatory audits and product launches, all while helping us scale operations in support of our long-term growth aspirations. We are deeply grateful for Ricci\u2019s commitment to the organization, and we wish her the very best in all future endeavors.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Capper continued, \u201cThis leadership change comes as part of a broader restructuring and cost savings initiative at MIMEDX. Over the last few months, we have conducted a detailed review of our business and supporting corporate structure. While our Surgical business continues to flourish and warrants additional investments, our Wound Care business, along with the broader market, is recovering from the January 1st<\/sup> Medicare reimbursement reduction at a very slow rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we entered the new year, we kept the organization resourced in the event of a rapid recovery in the Wound market. Based on first quarter market behavior, it is clear the transition is happening at a more sluggish pace, and we must now make the requisite adjustments to our cost structure to ensure the future profitability of the business. As such, we have taken steps to reduce our annual operating expenses across the enterprise by approximately $40 million. We expect a one-time restructuring charge of approximately $4 million during the second quarter of 2026 associated with these changes,\u201d concluded Mr. Capper.<\/p>\n

The Company plans to provide additional commentary around the first quarter of 2026 operating and financial results and the impact of this reorganization during its quarterly conference call in late April.<\/p>\n
