forward-looking statements regulatory
"This communication contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995"
Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.
registration statement on Form S-4 regulatory
"MiMedx intends to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 that will include a proxy statement"
A registration statement on Form S-4 is a formal filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission used when a company issues shares or other securities as part of a merger, acquisition, exchange offer or similar corporate deal. It bundles the transaction terms, financial statements, risk factors and shareholder vote materials so investors can assess the deal; think of it as a detailed prospectus or buyer’s packet that explains what you would own and how the deal could change your stake.
proxy statement/prospectus regulatory
"The definitive proxy statement/prospectus (if and when available) will be mailed to stockholders of Sanara"
A proxy statement or prospectus is a document that companies send to shareholders to provide important information about upcoming decisions or investments, such as voting on company issues or offering new shares to the public. It helps investors understand the details and risks involved, enabling them to make informed choices about their ownership or involvement with the company.
participants in the solicitation regulatory
"Sanara, MiMedx and certain of their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies"
People or firms who actively seek to influence shareholders’ choices in a corporate action—such as a vote, merger, proxy contest, or tender offer. This can include company insiders, advisers, bankers, lawyers and professional solicitors who contact investors to persuade them. Investors care because knowing who is doing the persuading reveals potential conflicts, resources and credibility behind the campaign, much like checking who is organizing a political campaign before accepting its message.

Dear Distributor Partner,

 

I’m reaching out to share exciting news. Earlier this afternoon, we announced here that Sanara MedTech has agreed to combine with MIMEDX, a global provider of healing solutions for surgeries, wound care and burns.

 

This transaction brings together two highly focused and complementary organizations with strong momentum in surgical end markets. Together, Sanara and MIMEDX will create a leading regenerative medicine company across numerous surgical subspecialties. By joining MIMEDX and benefiting from its broad portfolio, robust commercial capabilities and a commitment to innovation, we believe we will develop and commercialize transformative technologies that improve clinical outcomes even faster than we could on our own.

 

In MIMEDX, we have found a great partner – one that respects the strong business we have built at Sanara and the regenerative products we bring to its portfolio. Sanara and MIMEDX share many of the same values, including a commitment to innovation, patient outcomes and excellent clinical support, and we are confident this partnership will better position us to deliver the products and support you have come to expect.

 

While today’s announcement is an important milestone, it is only the first step. The transaction is expected to close by the end of the year, subject to customary closing conditions. Until then, Sanara and MIMEDX will continue to operate as independent, separate companies, and it remains business as usual at Sanara. Your existing agreements remain in effect, and there are no changes to how we work with you or to your day-to-day contact at Sanara.
