Citing a lack of fit with its recently-announced transition into a biopharma company, USA-based regenerative medicine company MiMedx (Nasdaq: MDXG) has announced the divestment of Stability Biologics, a unit which it acquired only in early 2016.

MiMedx’s share price closed 2.5% up on Friday at $16.52 following the announcement that the company has signed a definitive agreement with the former stockholders of Stability to divest the subsidiary back to them.
