(NASDAQ: MDXG), the leading biopharmaceutical company developing and marketing regenerative and therapeutic biologics utilizing human placental tissue allografts and patent-protected processes for multiple sectors of healthcare, announced today that it has published a document on the Company's website exposing the false and misleading information distributed by Viceroy Research and Aurelius Value in their articles on MiMedx.

Viceroy Research and Aurelius Value have each published articles about MiMedx that contained non-factual and misleading information and negative innuendo regarding MiMedx and individuals associated with the Company. In order to expose the misinformation in these attacks, MiMedx has published this document to appropriately highlight the countless falsehoods contained in these reports.  A link to the document can be found on the Company's website homepage, www.mimedx.com.

Parker H. "Pete" Petit, CEO, stated, "I encourage all MiMedx shareholders to thoroughly review and consider our document posted today on our website. As you are aware, MiMedx and all other public companies are governed by federal regulations prohibiting the dissemination of false and misleading information about the Company; unfortunately, organizations like Viceroy Research and Aurelius Value are not held to those standards and often such organizations have little to no accountability for the misinformation they publish. Both the Viceroy Research report and the Aurelius Value report indicate that either they are short in MDXG, or that the reader should assume they are short in MDXG. "
