Second Quarter 2024 Sales Analysis (Consolidated)
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company continued to further penetrate existing accounts while also expanding into new territories, growing the number of facilities where our products were sold to 800+ in Q2 2024 compared to 600+ in Q2 2023. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Sanara generated net revenue of $20.2 million compared to net revenue of $15.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, a 28% increase from the prior year period. The higher net revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was due to increased sales of soft tissue repair products (CellerateRX® Surgical Activated Collagen®, FORTIFY TRG® Tissue Repair Graft, FORTIFY FLOWABLE® Extracellular Matrix, BIASURGE® and TEXAGEN® Amniotic Membrane Allograft) as well as a result of increased market penetration, geographic expansion and the Company’s continuing strategy to expand its independent distribution network in both new and existing U.S. markets.
Earnings Analysis (Consolidated)
Sanara reported a net loss of $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The higher net loss in 2024 was primarily due to increased SG&A costs related to direct sales and marketing expenses, which increased $3.4 million compared to the prior year, $0.9 million of executive separation costs, $0.4 million of acquisition costs and higher amortization expenses of $0.3 million related to our intangible assets acquired from Applied Nutritionals during the third quarter of 2023. Our net loss in the second quarter of 2024 also included $0.6 million of interest expense due to our term loan with CRG. These increased costs were partially offset by higher gross profit of $4.6 million and lower R&D expenses of $0.2 million.
The Company generated Adjusted EBITDA of $0.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of ($0.3) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
Earnings Analysis (Segmented)
Sanara Surgical generated a net loss of $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to net income of $0.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Tissue Health Plus (“THP”) produced a net loss of $1.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

THP produced Segment EBITDA* of ($0.8) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to Segment EBITDA* of ($1.4) million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
* Segment EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the discussion and the reconciliations at the end of this release for additional information.

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 and on the related teleconference call, including Adjusted EBITDA and Segment 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 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, effects of noncontrolling interests, 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. Prior to the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company did not exclude executive separation costs or legal and diligence expenses related to acquisitions in calculating Adjusted EBTIDA. However, after reevaluation, the Company has determined that presenting Adjusted EBITDA without excluding such costs provides less valuable information about the Company’s core operations. As a result, beginning with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, executive separation costs and legal and diligence expenses related to acquisitions are now excluded from the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. Certain prior periods have been recast below to conform to the current definition. Segment EBITDA is calculated in the same manner as Adjusted EBITDA but is presented on a segment basis.
The Company’s believes Adjusted EBITDA and Segment 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 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 EBITDA is reported to the chief operating decision maker 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.
