Item 8.01 Other Events.
As previously announced, MiMedx Group, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Sanara MedTech Inc., a Texas corporation ("Sanara"), and Mustang Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of MiMedx ("Merger Subsidiary"), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Subsidiary will be merged with and into Sanara (the "Merger"), with Sanara surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of MiMedx.
On October 15, 2026, the Company and Sanara each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (a "Second Request") from the Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") in connection with the FTC's review of the Merger. The effect of a Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), until 30 days after the parties have substantially complied with the Second Request, unless that period is extended voluntarily by the parties or terminated earlier by the FTC.
Completion of the Merger remains subject to the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and the satisfaction or waiver of the other closing conditions specified in the Merger Agreement. The Company continues to work constructively with the FTC in its review of the Merger.
