Management Comments

“The commercial team for our Sanara Surgical segment delivered a strong start to 2025, with net revenue growth in the first quarter of 26% year-over-year, which was consistent with our expectations,” stated Ron Nixon, Sanara’s Executive Chairman and CEO. “Our Sanara Surgical segment revenue performance reflects impressive execution of our commercial strategy, marked by progress in developing our network of distributor partners, adding new healthcare facility customers, and increasing our penetration of existing facility customers. We are pleased to complement our Sanara Surgical segment revenue performance with enhanced gross margins, and while net loss for the Sanara Surgical segment increased $0.2 million on a year-over-year basis, we achieved a $1.5 million improvement in Segment Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾. In tandem, we enhanced our new product pipeline with the execution of an exclusive agreement with BMI, expanded our leadership team with key appointments, and continued to develop our value-based wound care program, Tissue Health Plus.”

Mr. Nixon continued: “Over the balance of 2025, we remain focused on driving revenue growth and improving profitability in our Sanara Surgical segment. In parallel, our Tissue Health Plus team is preparing to launch our first pilot program with a wound care provider group later in the second quarter, while actively pursuing financial partners to invest in the execution of our THP strategy. We look forward to building on our recent progress in 2025, and addressing the large surgical greenfield opportunity that remains ahead of us, for the benefit of all of our stakeholders.”

First Quarter 2025 Revenue

The following table summarizes revenue streams from product sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:

First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Net revenue for the first quarter of 2025 was $23.4 million, compared to $18.5 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $4.9 million, or 26%, year-over-year. The increase in net revenue was driven by an increase of $4.5 million, or 28%, in sales of soft tissue repair products and an increase of $0.4 million, or 18%, in sales of bone fusion products. The increase in sales of soft tissue repair products was driven primarily by increased demand for CellerateRX^® Surgical Activated Collagen^® (“CellerateRX Surgical”) and, to a lesser extent, BIASURGE^® Advanced Surgical Solution (“BIASURGE”) as a result of the Company’s increased penetration of medical facilities that represent existing accounts, expansion into additional medical facilities, and development of its independent distribution network in both new and existing U.S. markets.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2025 was $21.6 million, compared to $16.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $5.0 million, or 30%, year-over-year. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by increased sales of soft tissue repair products. Gross margin was 92% of net revenue for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 90% of net revenue for the first quarter of 2024. The higher gross margin realized in the first quarter of 2025 was due to increased sales of soft tissue repair products and lower manufacturing costs related to CellerateRX Surgical.

Operating expenses for the first quarter of 2025 were $23.7 million, compared to $18.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $5.5 million, or 30%, year-over-year. The increase in operating expenses was driven primarily by an increase of $5.2 million, or 32%, in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) and an increase of $0.2 million, or 18%, in research and development. The increase in SG&A was primarily driven by a $2.4 million increase in direct sales and marketing expenses in the Sanara Surgical segment, $1.7 million of additional SG&A in the Tissue Health Plus segment, and approximately $0.7 million related to the buildout of the Company’s corporate infrastructure.

Operating loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.1 million, compared to operating loss of $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2024.

Other expense for the first quarter of 2025 was $1.4 million, compared to $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2024. Other expense for the first quarter of 2025 primarily included higher interest expense and fees related to the CRG Term Loan Agreement.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 was $3.5 million compared to a net loss of $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2024. The Company’s Sanara Surgical segment generated a net loss of $0.6 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2024. The Company’s Tissue Health Plus segment generated a net loss of $2.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ for the first quarter of 2025 was $0.7 million, compared to $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2024. The Company’s Sanara Surgical segment generated Segment Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2024. The Company’s Tissue Health Plus segment generated Segment Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ of ($2.0) million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to ($0.9) million for the first quarter of 2024.

As of March 31, 2025, Sanara had $20.7 million of cash, $42.8 million of principal debt obligations outstanding, and $12.25 million of available borrowing capacity, compared to $15.9 million, $30.5 million, and $24.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2024.

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 and on the related teleconference call, including Adjusted EBITDA and Segment 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) 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, share of losses from equity method investments, executive separation costs, legal and diligence expenses related to acquisitions, and gains/losses on the disposal of property and equipment, as each is applicable to the periods presented. Segment Adjusted EBITDA is calculated in the same manner as Adjusted EBITDA but is presented on a segment basis.

The Company believes Adjusted EBITDA and Segment Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors because they facilitate comparisons of its core business operations across periods on a consistent basis. Accordingly, the Company adjusts for certain items, such as change in fair value of earnout liabilities, when calculating Adjusted EBITDA and Segment 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.

Segment Adjusted EBITDA is reported to the chief operating decision maker, the Chief Executive Officer, for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. We have provided a reconciliation of this measure as it relates to our segments below.
