First Nine Months of 2026 Financial Summary⁽¹⁾

Management Comments 

Seth Yon, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sanara, commented, “Our team delivered another quarter of strong execution with net revenue of $28.4 million, representing 8% growth year-over-year, gross margin of 93% and Adjusted EBITDA of $5.6 million. CellerateRX Surgical and BIASURGE continue to be strong drivers of our revenue growth.

“In July, we announced our entry into a transformational agreement in which Sanara is expected to be acquired by MIMEDX. We were pleased to receive shareholder approval for the pending combination in September, and we continue to work through the regulatory and review process. We believe this is a significant next step for Sanara’s growth and we remain excited about the opportunity this transaction represents for our customers, employees and shareholders,” Mr. Yon concluded.

Third Quarter and Year-to-Date 2026 Revenue

The following table summarizes revenue streams from product sales for the periods presented:

Third Quarter of 2026 Financial Results⁽¹⁾

Net revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was $28.4 million, compared to $26.3 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $2.1 million, or 8%, year-over-year. Higher net revenue for the third quarter of 2026 was driven by an increase of $2.2 million, or 10%, in sales of soft tissue repair products, including CellerateRX^® Surgical Powder (“CellerateRX Surgical”) and BIASURGE^® Advanced Surgical Solution (“BIASURGE”), offset by a slight decrease of $0.1 million, or 5%, in sales of bone fusion products. The increases were supported by increased market penetration and our strategy to continue expanding and developing our independent distribution network in both new and existing U.S. markets.

Gross profit for the third quarter of 2026 was $26.3 million, compared to $24.5 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $1.9 million, or 8%, year-over-year. Gross margin was 93% of net revenue for the third quarter of 2026 and 2025. Higher gross profit for the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to the net revenue growth factors above and product mix.

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2026 were $25.6 million, or 90% of net revenue, compared to $21.5 million, or 82% of net revenue, for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $4.1 million, or 19%, year-over-year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”). Higher SG&A in the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to approximately $3.0 million in legal and advisory services associated with corporate strategic initiatives and the pending Merger, approximately $0.8 million of increased direct sales and marketing expenses, approximately $0.4 million related to legal and accounting expense and approximately $0.2 million related to compensation expense. Research and development expenses (“R&D”) for the third quarter of 2026 decreased to $0.7 million, or 3% of net revenue, compared to $1.0 million, or 4% of net revenue, for the third quarter of 2025. Lower R&D for the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to the timing of product enhancement initiatives associated with the Company’s soft tissue repair products when compared to the third quarter of 2025.

Operating income for the third quarter of 2026 was $0.7 million, compared to operating income of $2.9 million for the third quarter of 2025.

Other expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $2.0 million, compared to $2.1 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease in other expense for the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to interest income and gain on disposal of investment, offset by higher share of losses from equity method investments. The net gain on disposal of investment represents our share of proceeds from the issuance of additional ordinary shares of Biomimetic Innovations Limited (“BMI”), reduced by our diluted share of BMI losses and the write-off of our investment in SI Healthcare Technologies, LLC.

Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2026 was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.8 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025, a decrease of $2.1 million. Net loss from continuing operations for the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to higher SG&A, which included costs associated with the pending Merger, and higher share of losses from equity method investments, partially offset by net revenue growth. Net loss from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2026 was $0.1 million, compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $31.2 million for the third quarter of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ for the third quarter of 2026 was $5.6 million, compared to $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2025, an increase of $0.7 million. Higher Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2026 was primarily due to net revenue growth offset by increases in SG&A.

First Nine Months of 2026 Financial Results⁽¹⁾

Net revenue for the first nine months of 2026 was $84.4 million, compared to $75.6 million for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $8.8 million, or 12%, year-over-year. Higher net revenue for the first nine months of 2026 was driven by an increase of $9.2 million, or 14%, in sales of soft tissue repair products, including CellerateRX Surgical, BIASURGE and FORTIFY TRG^® Tissue Repair Graft, offset by a slight decrease of $0.4 million, or 5%, in sales of bone fusion products. The increases were supported by increased market penetration and our strategy to continue expanding and developing our independent distribution network in both new and existing U.S. markets.

Gross profit for the first nine months of 2026 was $78.4 million, compared to $69.9 million for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $8.4 million, or 12%, year-over-year. Gross margin was 93% of net revenue for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025. Higher gross profit for the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to the net revenue growth factors above and product mix.

Operating expenses for the first nine months of 2026 were $73.2 million, or 87% of net revenue, compared to $63.7 million, or 84% of net revenue, for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $9.5 million, or 15%, year-over-year. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher SG&A for the first nine months of 2026. Higher SG&A in the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to approximately $4.1 million in legal and advisory services associated with corporate strategic initiatives and the pending Merger, approximately $3.9 million of increased direct sales and marketing expenses, approximately $1.3 million related to compensation expense and approximately $0.4 million related to legal and accounting expense. R&D for the first nine months of 2026 decreased to $2.6 million, or 3% of net revenue, compared to $3.0 million, or 4% of net revenue, for the first nine months of 2025. Lower R&D in the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to the timing of product enhancement initiatives associated with the Company’s soft tissue repair products when compared to the first nine months of 2025.

Operating income for the first nine months of 2026 was $5.2 million, compared to operating income of $6.3 million for the first nine months of 2025.  

Other expense for the first nine months of 2026 was $6.5 million, compared to $5.5 million for the first nine months of 2025. The increase in other expense for the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to higher interest expense related to our term loan with CRG Servicing LLC (the “CRG Term Loan”) and share of losses from equity method investments, offset by higher interest income and the gain on disposal of investment.

Net loss from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2026 was $1.3 million, or a loss of $0.15 per diluted share, compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.7 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the first nine months of 2025, a decrease of $2.0 million. Net loss from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to higher SG&A, which included costs related to the pending Merger, higher interest expense related to the CRG Term Loan and share of losses from equity method investments, partially offset by net revenue growth. Net loss from discontinued operations for the first nine months of 2026 was $0.1 million, compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $36.7 million for the first nine months of 2025.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ for the first nine months of 2026 was $14.9 million, compared to $12.3 million for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of $2.6 million. Higher Adjusted EBITDA in the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to net revenue growth offset by increases in SG&A.

Net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2026 was $3.5 million, compared to $2.8 million of net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine months of 2025. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities during the first nine months of 2026 was primarily due to a reduction in net loss and decreased inventory expenditures. Additionally, a timing difference in the CRG Term Loan interest payment, which was remitted on October 1, 2026 rather than September 30, 2026, resulted in the payment being recognized in the fourth quarter of 2026, favorably affecting the September 30, 2026 cash balance by approximately $1.6 million. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by increased bonus and commission payments.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company had $16.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and $46.7 million of long-term debt, compared to $16.6 million and $46.0 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2025.

Update to Full Year 2026 Financial Guidance

The Company is updating its full year 2026 net revenue guidance to a range of $110 million to $115 million compared to its previously provided range of $116 million to $121 million. This updated full year guidance represents growth of approximately 7% to 12%, compared to net revenue of $103.1 million for the full year 2025.

SANARA MEDTECH INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (UNAUDITED)

To supplement the Company’s financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), we present certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including Adjusted EBITDA. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, both internally and externally, to assess and communicate the financial performance of the Company. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) from continuing operations excluding interest expense/income, provision/benefit for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-cash share-based compensation expense, change in fair value of earnout liabilities, asset impairment charges, share of losses from equity method investments, gain/loss on the disposal of property and equipment, gain on disposal of investment, executive separation costs, and acquisition and other transaction related costs, as each is applicable to the periods presented.

The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it facilitates comparisons of the Company’s core business operations across periods on a consistent basis. Accordingly, the Company adjusts certain items when calculating Adjusted EBITDA because the Company believes that such items are not related to the Company’s core business operations.

The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, nor an alternative for, measures conforming to GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company continues to provide all information required by GAAP, but it believes that evaluating its ongoing operating results may not be as useful if an investor or other user is limited to reviewing only GAAP financial measures. The Company does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider these non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Material limitations associated with the use of such measures include that they do not reflect all costs included in operating expenses and may not be comparable with similarly named financial measures of other companies. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures are based on subjective determinations of management regarding the nature and classification of events and circumstances. The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures to provide investors with information to evaluate the Company’s operating results in a manner similar to how management evaluates business performance. To compensate for any limitations in such non-GAAP financial measures, management believes that it is useful in understanding and analyzing the results of the business to review both GAAP information and the related non-GAAP financial measures. Whenever the Company uses a non-GAAP financial measure, it provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review and consider these reconciliations.
