Current report
We are a medical device company that has incurred net losses in every period to date and expect to continue to incur significant losses as we develop our business, and our financial conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Current report
We are a medical device company that has incurred net losses in each quarterly and annual period since inception and that has not yet generated any meaningful revenue. We expect to incur increasing costs as we continue to devote substantially all of our resources towards the development and anticipated further commercialization of our main platform technology, vCLAS. We cannot be certain if we will ever generate meaningful revenue or if or when we will produce sufficient revenue from operations to support our costs. Even if profitability is achieved, we may not be able to sustain profitability. We incurred net losses of $25.1 million and $75.0 million in 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $102.6, $95.6 and $70.6 million, respectively. We expect to incur substantial losses and negative cash flows for the foreseeable future. In addition, as a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting, and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. These increased expenses may make it harder for us to achieve and sustain future profitability. We may incur significant losses in the future for a number of reasons, many of which are beyond our control, including the other risks described in this report and in our other filings with the SEC. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. Our failure to become and remain profitable could depress the value of our company and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, maintain our development efforts, obtain regulatory approvals or certificates, diversify our product offerings or continue our operations.
Current report
Our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their audit report regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. This going concern risk may materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of new debt or equity or may adversely affect the terms upon which such capital may be available. The inability to obtain sufficient financing on acceptable terms could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects.
Current report
We are actively pursuing strategies to mitigate these risks, however, there can be no assurance that these efforts will prove successful or that we will achieve our intended financial stability. The failure to successfully address these going concern risks may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Investors should consider the substantial risks and uncertainties inherent in our business before investing in our securities.

Previous report
We operate in a global economy, and our business depends on a global supply chain for the development, manufacturing, and distribution of our products, and for the advancement of our preclinical and clinical development programs. There is inherent risk, based on the complex relationships among the United States and the countries in which we conduct our business, that political, diplomatic, and national security factors can lead to global trade restrictions and changes in trade policies and export regulations that may adversely affect our business and operations. The current international trade and regulatory environment is subject to significant ongoing uncertainty.
Previous report
We source some materials from international suppliers, with reliance on foreign manufacturers, including China. Tariff policies, particularly those affecting China could materially increase our costs and reduce our profitability, including as a result of our inability to adjust pricing in formulary-based markets. Recent and potential future changes in international trade policies, particularly regarding U.S. China trade relations present risks to our operations and financial performance.
Previous report
Unlike many industries, our ability to pass increased costs to customers may be limited by the structure of medical device pricing and reimbursement systems. In many cases, pricing of medical devices are established through annual or multi-year contracts with commercial, third-party payors, customers, and group purchasing organizations, and reimbursement methodologies established by government programs, such as Medicare. These arrangements typically include fixed pricing terms. As a result, and depending on the timing and scope of our future commercialization and the implementation of any future tariffs, cost increases due to tariffs may be difficult or impossible to pass through to customers until the next negotiation cycle.
Previous report
Current or future tariffs will also result in increased research and development expenses, including with respect to increased costs associated with raw materials, equipment and research materials and components. Trade restrictions affecting the import of materials necessary for clinical trials could result in delays to our development timelines. Increased development costs and extended development timelines could place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to companies operating in regions with more favorable trade relationships and could reduce investor confidence and negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects.
Previous report
Our corporate prioritization initiative may not achieve our intended outcome and may result in significant adverse consequences.
Previous report
In February 2025, we implemented a corporate prioritization initiative focusing all resources on the FULCRUM-VT clinical trial activities and our new product design optimization program. This corporate prioritization initiative may result in unintended consequences and costs, such as the loss of institutional knowledge and expertise, attrition beyond the intended number of employees, decreased morale among our remaining employees, and the risk that we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the corporate prioritization initiative. If we are unable to realize the anticipated benefits from the corporate prioritization initiative, or if we experience significant adverse consequences from the corporate prioritization initiative, our business, financial condition, and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
Previous report
Changes in the regulatory landscape, policies, or processes, as well as disruptions at the FDA and other government agencies caused by layoffs, changes in personnel, funding shortages or global health concerns could negatively impact our business.
Previous report
The ability of the FDA to review proposed clinical trials or approve new products can be affected by a variety of factors, including government budget and funding levels, statutory, regulatory, and policy changes, the FDA’s ability to hire and retain key personnel and accept payment of user fees, and other events that may otherwise affect the FDA’s ability to perform routine functions. In addition, government funding of other government agencies that fund research and development activities is subject to the political process, including executive and congressional priorities, the impacts of which are inherently fluid and unpredictable. Disruptions at the FDA and other agencies may slow the time necessary for new product candidates to be reviewed and/or approved, which would adversely affect our business. For example, over the last several years, including in October 2025, the U.S. government has shut down several times and certain regulatory agencies, such as the FDA, have had to furlough critical FDA employees and stop critical activities. If the current government shutdown continues or a prolonged government shutdown occurs, it could significantly impact the ability of the FDA to timely review and process our regulatory submissions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Previous report
A breakthrough device designation by the FDA for vCLASTM may not lead to a faster development, regulatory review or approval process, and it may not increase the likelihood that vCLASTM will receive premarket approval (“PMA”) approval from the FDA.
Previous report
In April 2025, we announced that the FDA granted breakthrough device designation for the vCLASTM Cryoablation System for the treatment of drug-refractory, recurrent, sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in patients with ischemic or non-ischemic structural heart disease. Breakthrough Device designation provides potential benefits to device developers, including more interactive and timely communications with FDA staff, use of post-market data collection when scientifically appropriate, and opportunities for flexible clinical study design. The receipt of breakthrough device designation for vCLASTM may not result in a faster development process, review or approval compared to conventional FDA procedures and does not ensure ultimate PMA approval by the FDA. In addition, even if a product qualifies as a breakthrough device, the FDA may later decide that the product no longer meets the conditions for qualification.

Previous report — wording carried elsewhere
The ability of the FDA and other government agencies to properly administer their functions is highly dependent on the levels of government funding and the ability to fill key leadership appointments, among various factors. Delays in filling or replacing key positions could significantly impact the ability of the FDA and other agencies to fulfill their functions and could greatly impact healthcare and the pharmaceutical industry. In addition, the current administration has implemented substantial reductions in force at various government agencies including the FDA, which could significantly reduce the FDA’s capacity to perform its functions in a manner consistent with its past practices and could delay reviews and negatively impact our business. There is increased uncertainty as to how the FDA and other regulatory agencies will regulate our products.
