RTI SURGICAL™ ANNOUNCES 2013 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

– Company Will Hold Conference Call at 8:30 a.m. ET –

ALACHUA, Fla. (Oct. 29, 2013) –RTI Surgical Inc. (RTI) (Nasdaq: RTIX), a global surgical implant company, reported operating results for the third quarter of 2013 as follows:

Quarterly Highlights:

• Completed the acquisition ofPioneer Surgical Technology, Inc. (Pioneer) on July 16, 2013.

• Achieved quarterly revenues of $54.7 million, a 23 percent increase over the third quarter of 2012. Quarterly revenues include $16.1 million of revenue from Pioneer for the period of July 16, 2013 to Sept. 30, 2013.

• Announced successful outcome toFood and Drug Administration (FDA) inspection of Alachua, Fla. facility.

• Successfully completed the first human implantations ofmap3™ cellular allogeneic bone graft in bothspine andfoot and ankle procedures.

• Launched theTritium™ Sternal Cable Plating System for closing median sternotomies following open heart procedures.

Worldwide revenues were $54.7 million for the third quarter of 2013 compared to revenues of $44.6 million for the third quarter of 2012. Domestic revenues were $49.3 million for the third quarter of 2013 compared to revenues of $39.6 million for the third quarter of 2012. International revenues were $5.4 million for the third quarter of 2013 compared to revenues of $4.9 million for the third quarter of 2012. On a constant currency basis, international revenues for the third quarter of 2013 increased 6

percent as compared to the third quarter of 2012. The increases in year-over-year revenues reflect the inclusion of $16.1 million of Pioneer revenues for the period of July 16, 2013 to Sept. 30, 2013. If Pioneer revenues had been included for the entire third quarter for both 2012 and 2013, worldwide revenues would have decreased by 12 percent.

“As disclosed earlier this month, our revenues came in lower than projected due to several factors including lower than expected volumes in our spine business, uncertainties surrounding the company’s October 2012 warning letter and surgeons’ subsequent shift to alternative solutions, a slower than expected ramp in our new direct surgical specialties business and lower than projected revenues in our international business due to shortages in tissue supply,” said Brian K. Hutchison, president and chief executive officer of RTI.

For the third quarter of 2013, the company reported a net loss applicable to common shares of $9.1 million and net loss per fully diluted common share of $0.16, based on 56.4 million fully diluted shares outstanding, compared to net income applicable to common shares of $2.8 million or $0.05 per fully diluted common share for the third quarter of 2012, based on 56.1 million fully diluted shares outstanding. Excluding certain acquisition related expenses and certain purchase accounting adjustments, the company reported a net loss applicable to common shares of $699,000 and a net loss per fully diluted share of $0.01.

“While third quarter results were below expectations, we are working diligently to rebuild business that was lost in the year and gain new customers,” Hutchison said. “We have made progress on integrating the Pioneer business and are in the early stages of realizing cross distribution opportunities. We are confident we are headed in the right direction for long term success.”

Fiscal 2013 and Fourth Quarter Outlook

Based on the acquisition of Pioneer and results from the first three quarters the company is revising its full year revenue guidance for 2013. The company now expects full year revenue guidance for 2013 to be between $196 million to $197 million, as compared to prior guidance of $211 million to $215 million. Full year net loss per fully diluted common share is expected to be approximately $0.28, based on 56.4 million fully diluted shares outstanding, as compared to prior guidance of full year net loss per fully diluted common share of $0.13 to $0.11. Excluding certain acquisition related expenses, certain purchase accounting adjustments, and the Biomedical Tissue Services Ltd. litigation settlement charge taken in the second quarter of 2013, full year earnings per fully diluted common share is expected to be approximately breakeven.

For the fourth quarter of 2013, the company expects revenues to be between $59 million and $60 million and net loss per fully diluted common share to be approximately $0.09, based on 56.4 million fully diluted shares outstanding. Excluding certain acquisition related expenses and certain purchase accounting adjustments, fourth quarter net loss per fully diluted common share is expected to be approximately $0.01.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement RTI Surgical’s condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts, including non-GAAP net (loss) income applicable to common shares and non-GAAP net (loss) income per fully diluted share. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measures are included in the reconciliation above.

The following are explanations of the adjustments that management excluded as part of the non-GAAP measures for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2013 as well as the reasons for excluding the individual item:

2013 Inventory purchase price adjustment – This adjustment represents a charge and relates to purchase price accounting associated with the acquisition of Pioneer. Management removes the amount of these one-time fees from the Company’s operating results to assist in assessing its operating performance in the year-to-date period and to supplement a comparison to the Company’s past operating performance.

2013 Acquisition expenses – This adjustment represents a charge and relates to certain fees associated with the acquisition of Pioneer. Management removes the amount of these one-time fees from the Company’s operating results to assist in assessing its operating performance in the year-to-date period and to supplement a comparison to the Company’s past operating performance.

2013 Integration expenses – This adjustment represents a charge and relates to certain expenses associated with the integration of Pioneer. Management removes the amount of these one-time fees from the Company’s operating results to assist in assessing its operating performance in the year-to-date period and to supplement a comparison to the Company’s past operating performance.

2013 Litigation settlement charge – This adjustment represents a charge and relates to a litigation settlement of certain BTS related lawsuits. Management removes the amount of the litigation settlement charge from the Company’s operating results to assist in assessing its operating performance in the year-to-date period and to supplement a comparison to the Company’s past operating performance.

2012 Litigation settlement charge – This adjustment represents a charge and relates to a litigation settlement of certain BTS related lawsuits. Management removes the amount of the litigation settlement charge from the Company’s operating results to assist in assessing its operating performance in the prior year periods to supplement a comparison to the Company’s current operating performance.

Material Limitations Associated with the Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP net (loss) income applicable to common shares and non-GAAP net (loss) income per fully diluted share should not be considered in isolation, or as a replacement for GAAP measures.

Usefulness of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to Investors

The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP net (loss) income applicable to common shares and non-GAAP net (loss) income per fully diluted share in addition to the related GAAP measures provide investors greater transparency to the information used by management in its financial decision-making which excludes the inventory purchase price adjustment, acquisition expenses, integration expenses and litigation settlement charges. The Company further believes that providing this information better enables RTI Surgical’s investors to understand the Company’s overall core performance and to evaluate the methodology used by management to assess and measure such performance.
