Current report

Our two flagship product candidates – Atrioventricular Interval Modulation Therapy (“AVIM Therapy”) and Virtue® Sirolimus AngioInfusion™ Balloon (“Virtue SAB”) – are currently undergoing pivotal clinical trials for their lead indications, each representing multi-billion-dollar annual global market opportunities.

Current report

AVIM Therapy is a bioelectronic treatment for hypertension (“HTN”), the leading risk factor for death worldwide, and is designed to be delivered by a pacemaker and achieve immediate, substantial and sustained reductions in blood pressure in patients with hypertensive heart disease. We have an exclusive license and collaboration agreement with Medtronic Inc. (an affiliate of Medtronic plc) (“Medtronic”), one of the largest medical device companies in the world and the global leader in cardiac pacing therapies, for the development and commercialization of AVIM Therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled HTN in patients indicated for a cardiac pacemaker. We are actively conducting a double-blind, randomized, global pivotal trial (the “BACKBEAT Trial”), enrolling up to 316 patients with uncontrolled hypertension who are indicated for a dual-chamber pacemaker, with enrollment currently targeted to be completed by the end of the third quarter of 2026. AVIM Therapy has FDA Breakthrough Device Designations (“BDDs”) for these patients, as well as an estimated 7.7 million total patients in the U.S. with uncontrolled hypertension despite medical therapy and increased cardiovascular risk.

Current report

We were incorporated in the Cayman Islands in 2020, as a special purpose acquisition company under the name Health Sciences Acquisitions Corporation 2 (“HSAC2”). On January 26, 2023, Orchestra BioMed, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, and HSAC2 consummated a business combination pursuant to which, among other things, Orchestra BioMed, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of HSAC2 and HSAC2 changed its name to Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc. (the “Business Combination”). HSAC2 Holdings, LLC was the sponsor of HSAC2 prior to the Business Combination.

Current report

Orchestra BioMed Presented AVIM Therapy Clinical and Mechanistic Data at HRS 2026

Current report

On April 23, 2026, we announced the presentation of new clinical data related to our AVIM Therapy at the Heart Rhythm Society 2026 Annual Meeting. Data from the MODERATO II randomized, prospective, multi-center, double-blind, controlled pilot study demonstrated that activation of AVIM Therapy was associated with an immediate mean reduction of 13.2 mmHg in office systolic blood pressure (“oSBP”) prior to randomization. In addition, 97% of patients experienced a reduction of at least 5 mmHg in oSBP. At six months, mean ambulatory systolic blood pressure (“aSBP”) was 125.2 mmHg, with 89% of patients achieving aSBP below 140 mmHg, the current oSBP treatment goal according to European Society of Cardiology guidelines, and 58% achieving aSBP below 130 mmHg, the more stringent U.S. oSBP treatment goal according to American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology guidelines. Sustained reductions in aSBP were also observed through up to 3.6 years of follow-up in a sub-cohort of patients.

Current report

Additional data presented from a pressure-volume loop analysis study in patients with uncontrolled hypertension indicated that AVIM Therapy reduced systolic blood pressure through decreases in cardiac preload and effective arterial elastance (afterload), without a significant reduction in left ventricular contractility. The study also reported reductions in end diastolic volume, end diastolic pressure, end systolic volume, stroke work, and total peripheral resistance, without a significant change in stroke volume.

Current report

FDA Grants Orchestra BioMed Additional Breakthrough Device Designation for AVIM Therapy

Current report

We now hold two Breakthrough Device Designations (“BDDs”) for AVIM Therapy. On April 30, 2026, we announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) granted AVIM Therapy a second BDD for the treatment of patients with uncontrolled hypertension despite the use of anti-hypertensive medications and an indication for a pacemaker. This population includes the pacemaker-indicated population being evaluated in our BACKBEAT Trial. The first granted BDD applies to patients with increased ten-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (“ASCVD”) risk, preserved left ventricular systolic function, and uncontrolled hypertension, despite the use of anti-hypertensive medications or in patients who may have intolerance to anti-hypertensive medications. Based on the indications specified in both BDDs, we estimate that the addressable U.S. patient population for AVIM Therapy exceeds 7.7 million adults with hypertension despite medication. The FDA Breakthrough Devices Program, which reflects the FDA’s commitment to device innovation and protecting public health, is designed to expedite the development of and provide priority review for innovative medical technologies that have the potential to significantly improve outcomes for patients with serious or life-threatening conditions. To be eligible for this designation, a device must demonstrate the potential to provide more effective treatment or diagnosis of a life-threatening or irreversibly debilitating condition. In addition, the device must meet at least one of the following criteria: it must represent breakthrough technology, have no approved or cleared alternatives, offer significant advantages over existing options, or be determined by the FDA to be in the best interest of patients. Beyond regulatory acceleration, the BDD may also support favorable reimbursement pathways, including eligibility for incremental inpatient reimbursement through the New Technology Add-on Payment and outpatient Transitional Pass-Through payments under the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services programs. These mechanisms may help facilitate more timely access to breakthrough technologies while supporting provider adoption and patient access.

Current report

On May 11, 2026, we announced we are targeting completion of enrollment for the BACKBEAT Trial by the end of the third quarter of 2026. Further, we and Medtronic, our strategic collaborator for the BACKBEAT Trial and the commercialization of AVIM Therapy for the treatment of uncontrolled hypertension in patients indicated for a pacemaker, plan to submit the primary endpoint data for a late-breaking clinical trial presentation at a major cardiovascular conference in the second quarter of 2027. Lastly, assuming primary safety and efficacy endpoints are met, Medtronic plans to submit a marketing application for FDA approval after primary endpoint data analyses and reports are complete, and subsequently to pursue global regulatory approvals.

Current report

The updated BACKBEAT Trial timeline is supported by FDA approval of a reduction in the sample size for the clinical trial to a target total of 284 evaluable randomized subjects with the total enrollment target of 316 patients accounting for potential loss to follow up. The primary efficacy endpoint (between-group difference in 24-hour aSBP at 3-month follow up) and primary safety endpoint (freedom from unanticipated serious adverse device events in the AVIM Therapy arm at 3-month follow up) remain robustly powered (>90% statistical power) at the revised sample size for the trial. The sample size is designed to detect a between group difference of at least 5 mmHg in aSBP. The change in sample size reflects collaboration among Medtronic, the FDA and us under the Breakthrough Devices program, and follows FDA approval of an amendment to the BACKBEAT Trial protocol received by us on May 8, 2026.

Current report

Under the terms of the 2024 LSA, the initial date upon which we have to begin amortizing Term Loans is June 1, 2028. The Term Loans accrue interest at a floating per annum rate equal to the greater of (i) (x) the “prime rate” as reported in The Wall Street Journal plus (y) 2.0%, and (ii) 9.50%. The repayment terms of the Term Loans include monthly payments over a 4-year period, consisting of an interest-only period expiring June 1, 2028, followed by six monthly principal payments plus interest. At our option, we may prepay all or a portion of the outstanding Term Loans, subject to a prepayment premium equal to (a) 3.0% of the Term Loans being prepaid if the prepayment occurs during the twelve months following the LSA Closing Date, (b) 2.0% of the Term Loans being prepaid if the prepayment occurs after 12 months following the LSA Closing Date but on or prior to 24 months following the LSA Closing Date, and (c) 1.0% of the Term Loans being prepaid if the prepayment occurs after 24 months following the LSA Closing Date and prior to the maturity date. In addition, we will pay an end of term charge of 6.35% of the principal amount of the Term Loans upon the prepayment or repayment of the Term Loans and a facility charge of 0.75% upon any draws of the Term Loans. Refer to Note 14 –“Debt Financing” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Current report

In November 2025, we sold 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock at a purchase price equal to $100.00 per share for gross proceeds of $20.0 million. We concluded that certain conversion and redemption features meet the requirements to be separately accounted for as a bifurcated derivative. As a result, we bifurcated the Series A Preferred Stock between (i) the host contract, which was accounted for within mezzanine equity, and (ii) the bifurcated derivative liabilities related to those conversion and redemption features. The bifurcated derivatives are remeasured to fair value at each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Current report

The gain on sale of strategic investments represents a change in the preferred shares and convertible notes of Vivasure Medical Limited (“Vivasure”), a privately-held company and related party, and fair value of our investment in common stock holdings of a previously publicly-held company. On January 9, 2026, Haemonetics Corporation, a global medical technology company focused on delivering innovative solutions designed to improve patient outcomes, announced its acquisition of Vivasure. Vivasure was a strategic investment of ours prior to its acquisition. In connection with the closing of the transaction, we recognized a gain on the sale of strategic investments of $2.2 million.

On October 27, 2025, we announced the first patient enrollments in the Virtue SAB in the Treatment of Coronary ISR Trial (“Virtue Trial”), our U.S. IDE pivotal trial comparing its highly differentiated Virtue SAB to the AGENT paclitaxel-coated balloon, currently the only drug-coated balloon FDA-approved for a coronary indication. The initial cases were successfully completed by the teams at The Christ Hospital Heart & Vascular Institute in Cincinnati, OH, and St. Francis Hospital & Heart Center in Roslyn, NY, marking the initiation of the Virtue Trial. Designed to support regulatory approval of Virtue SAB, the Virtue Trial is expected to enroll 740 patients at up to 75 centers in the United States with enrollment completion currently planned for mid-2027.

Previous report

On October 24, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), Orchestra BioMed, Inc. entered into a termination and right of first refusal agreement (the “Termination and ROFR Agreement”) with Terumo Corporation (“Terumo Corporation”) and Terumo Medical Corporation (“TMC” and, collectively with Terumo Corporation, “Terumo”), pursuant to which the Terumo Agreement was terminated, and Orchestra BioMed, Inc. agreed to grant Terumo a right of first refusal (the “ROFR”) with respect to certain transactions involving Virtue SAB for the treatment of coronary artery disease globally in exchange for a fee of $10.0 million, which is to be paid no later than 10 business days after the Effective Date. The ROFR does not apply to other vascular indications, such as below-the-knee peripheral artery disease, which were covered by the Terumo Agreement prior to its termination. Accordingly, all rights to these indications are fully retained by us. Pursuant to the terms of the Termination and ROFR Agreement, Orchestra BioMed, Inc. has no further performance obligations under the Terumo Agreement.

Previous report

The ROFR has a term that began on the Effective Date and will end on the date that is 90 days after Orchestra BioMed, Inc. discloses primary endpoint data from the Virtue Trial to Terumo or the public, whichever occurs first (the “ROFR Period”); provided, however, that the ROFR Period will immediately expire if Terumo completes the acquisition from a third party of the exclusive right to make, use, sell, offer to sell or distribute a Competing Product (as defined in the Termination and ROFR Agreement) in the United States.

Previous report

The ROFR provides that, in the event that during the ROFR Period, Orchestra BioMed, Inc. receives a written proposal (a “Third-Party Proposal”) reflecting the material terms of an agreement pursuant to which Orchestra BioMed, Inc. would grant to a third party either (i) an outright or staged acquisition rights to Virtue SAB or its components or (ii) a license of or the right to distribute Virtue SAB, in each case, in the treatment of coronary artery diseases (a “Virtue Transaction”), Orchestra BioMed, Inc. will promptly deliver notice of each such Third-Party Proposal together with a copy of the applicable Third-Party Proposal to Terumo (a “Third Party Proposal Notice”).

Previous report

Pursuant to the Termination and ROFR Agreement, Terumo will have 30 days after delivery of the Third-Party Proposal Notice (the “ROFR Determination Period”) to exercise the ROFR by providing written notice to Orchestra BioMed, Inc. (the “ROFR Notice”). In the event that Terumo exercises the ROFR during the ROFR Determination Period, we and Terumo will negotiate in good faith and on an exclusive basis during the period beginning on the date of delivery of the ROFR Notice and ending 90 days thereafter (the “Terumo ROFR Negotiation Period”) to enter into a Virtue Transaction on substantially the same terms set forth in the applicable Third-Party Proposal.

Previous report

If Terumo fails to deliver a ROFR Notice to Orchestra BioMed, Inc. prior to the expiration of the ROFR Determination Period, Terumo shall be deemed to have waived the ROFR with respect to the applicable Third-Party Proposal. If Terumo is deemed to have waived a Terumo ROFR pursuant to the preceding sentence, or if Terumo delivers a ROFR Notice within the applicable ROFR Determination Period, but the parties fail to enter into a definitive agreement regarding a Virtue Transaction prior to expiration of the Terumo ROFR Negotiation Period, then, in either case, effective upon such expiration, (i) the ROFR shall terminate, and be of no further force or effect, with respect to the applicable Third-Party Proposal Notice and (ii) Orchestra BioMed, Inc. shall be free to terminate negotiations with Terumo and to enter into a Virtue Transaction with the applicable third party; provided that Orchestra BioMed, Inc. shall not enter into a definitive agreement with the applicable third party on terms and conditions that are materially different than the applicable Third Party Proposal without first providing Terumo with a renewed Third Party Proposal Notice and ROFR Determination Period; provided, further, that, if Orchestra BioMed, Inc. does not consummate a transaction with respect to such Third Party Proposal within 90 days after termination of the ROFR, Terumo will retain its ROFR during the remaining portion of the ROFR Period.

Previous report

In the event that Orchestra BioMed, Inc. receives a written proposal reflecting the material terms of an agreement for a Sale Transaction (as defined in the Termination and ROFR Agreement) of Orchestra BioMed, Inc. (such transaction an “Orchestra Sale”), or if Orchestra BioMed, Inc.’s board of directors approves a formal transaction process for a Orchestra BioMed, Inc. Sale (a “Sale Process”), Orchestra BioMed, Inc. will promptly give Terumo written notice (an “Orchestra Sale Notice”). During the period of 30 days that begins with the delivery of the Orchestra Sale Notice (the “Orchestra Sale Notice Period”), Orchestra BioMed, Inc. will not enter into a binding agreement or other arrangement for an Orchestra Sale with any third party. During the Orchestra Sale Notice Period, Terumo shall be given the opportunity to make an offer with respect to a Virtue Transaction, and Orchestra BioMed, Inc. will consider in good faith any such offer made. In addition, Orchestra BioMed, Inc. shall give Terumo the opportunity to participate in any Sale Process and shall consider any offer by Terumo in connection therewith in good faith.

Previous report

The Termination and ROFR Agreement will remain in effect for (a) the ROFR Period or (b) the end of any Terumo ROFR Negotiation Period and expiration of the parties rights and obligations under Section 3.2 of the Termination and ROFR Agreement with respect to the exercise of the ROFR, whichever comes later; provided that the Termination and ROFR Agreement will automatically terminate in the event that Orchestra BioMed, Inc. has not disclosed primary endpoint data from a U.S. clinical trial pursuant to its IDE for coronary ISR to Terumo or the public prior to the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.

Previous report

On October 24, 2025, concurrent with the execution of the Termination and ROFR Agreement, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with TMC (the “Terumo Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which TMC agreed to purchase 200,000 shares (the “Shares”) of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”) at a purchase price equal to $100.00 per Share (the “Purchase Price”) for gross proceeds to us of $20.0 million. The closing of the sale of the Shares pursuant to the Terumo Stock Purchase Agreement occurred on November 7, 2025.

Previous report

On November 6, 2025, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Certificate of Designation sets forth the rights, preferences, powers, restrictions, and limitations of the Series A Preferred Stock. Below is a summary of certain of the provisions of the Certificate of Designation.

Previous report

With respect to distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, a holder of Series A Preferred Stock (a “Holder” or, collectively, “Holders”) will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders before any payment is made to the holders of Company Common Stock (or any other class of securities junior to the Series A Preferred Stock) in an amount equal to the liquidation value of the Shares held by such Holder. The liquidation value of the Series A Preferred Stock will equal the Purchase Price of $100.00 per Share (the “Liquidation Value”) and will be subject to adjustment for stock splits and the like in accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designation.

Previous report

Under the terms of the Certificate of Designation, a Holder may convert its Shares into Company Common Stock on or after the earlier of (i) the date that both (a) we have publicly disclosed primary endpoint data from its U.S. IDE study for ISR and (b) the trading price of the Company Common Stock has been above $15.00 per share on any trading day subsequent to such public disclosure or (ii) the consummation of a Change of Control (as defined in the Certificate of Designation). A Holder may convert all or any portion of the outstanding whole Shares held by such Holder into an aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock as is determined by (i) multiplying the number of Shares to be converted by the Liquidation Value thereof, and then (ii) dividing the result by the Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect immediately prior to such conversion, with cash being paid in lieu of fractional shares The “Conversion Price” for the Series A Preferred Stock will be the greater of (i) $12.00 per share and (ii) a 20% discount to the closing price of the Company Common Stock on the Nasdaq Global Market on the date of conversion. Assuming no adjustments to the Conversion Price or the Liquidation Value as a result of stock splits or similar transactions, the 200,000 Shares to be issued would convert into a maximum of 1,666,666 shares of Company Common Stock.

Previous report

Redemption at the Option of Holders upon a Change of Control

Previous report

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, subject to limited exceptions, each Holder of Shares shall have the right to require the Company to redeem all or any part of such Holder’s Shares at a redemption price in cash equal to the aggregate Liquidation Value of such Shares.

Previous report

Except as otherwise required by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Holders shall have no voting rights.

Previous report

If we declare or pay a dividend or distribution on all shares of the Company Common Stock, whether such dividend or distribution is payable in cash, securities, or other property but excluding any dividend or distribution payable on the Company Common Stock in shares of Company Common Stock, we shall simultaneously declare and pay a dividend on the Series A Preferred Stock on a pro rata basis with the Company Common Stock determined on an as-converted basis assuming all Shares had been converted as of immediately prior to the record date of the applicable dividend (or if no record date is fixed, the date as of which the record holders of Company Common Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined).

Previous report

On October 24, 2025, concurrent with the execution of the Termination and ROFR Agreement, we and Terumo entered into a Lockup Agreement (the “Lockup Agreement”), pursuant to which Terumo agreed, subject to limited exceptions, that it and its affiliates will not Transfer (as such term is defined in the Lockup Agreement) or enter into any swap, hedging or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any shares of Company Common Stock held by Terumo until October 24, 2026; provided that the Lockup Agreement only applies to Company Common Stock held by Terumo and its affiliates as of the date of the Lockup Agreement.

Previous report

Due to the significant number of redemptions of HSAC2’s ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination, there was a significantly lower number of HSAC2 ordinary shares that converted into shares of Company Common Stock in connection with the Business Combination. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement we entered into in connection with the closing of the Business Combination and certain warrant agreements, we filed a registration statement (the “Resale Registration Statement”), which was declared effective on May 9, 2024, that registers, among other things, the resale of an aggregate of 18,586,201 shares of Company Common Stock, which constitutes approximately 33% of the outstanding Company Common Stock as of November 6, 2025. Additionally, some of the shares of the Company Common Stock being registered for resale were originally purchased by selling stockholders pursuant to investments in Orchestra BioMed, Inc. or HSAC2 at prices considerably below the current market price of the Company Common Stock. These selling stockholders may realize a positive rate of return on the sale of their shares of Company Common Stock covered by the Resale Registration Statement and therefore will have an incentive to sell their shares. Public shareholders may not experience a similar rate of return on shares of Company Common Stock they purchased. This discrepancy in purchase prices may have an impact on the market perception of the Company Common Stock’s value and could increase the volatility of the market price of the Company Common Stock or result in a significant decline in the public trading price of the Company Common Stock. The registration of these shares of Company Common Stock for resale creates the possibility of a significant increase in the supply of the Company Common Stock in the market. The increased supply, coupled with the potential disparity in purchase prices, may lead to heightened selling pressure, which could negatively affect the public trading price of the Company Common Stock.

Under the Terumo Agreement, we were initially eligible for certain milestone payments in the amount of $65.0 million from Terumo upon completion of certain minimum enrollments in clinical studies, making certain filings and submissions, and obtaining certain regulatory approvals and certifications, and are also eligible to earn royalties on future sales by Terumo based on royalty rates ranging from 10 - 15%. Of these milestone payments, $35.0 million relate to achieving certain milestones by specified target achievement dates. As of September 30, 2025, the target achievement dates for all time-based milestone payments had passed, in each case, without achieving the related milestones.

Previous report

As previously disclosed, we entered into a mediation procedure with Terumo pursuant to the Terumo Agreement and the International Mediation Rules of the International Centre for Dispute Resolution. As a result of this mediation procedure, we and Terumo entered into the Termination and ROFR Agreement on October 24, 2025, pursuant to which, among other things, the Terumo Agreement was terminated. See “Recent Developments—Termination and Right of First Refusal Agreement” above in this Item 2. Accordingly, we will not earn any milestone payments under the Terumo Agreement.

Previous report

We recorded the $30.0 million upfront payment received in 2019 from Terumo within deferred revenue and are recognizing the upfront payment over time based on a proportional performance model based on the costs incurred to date relative to the total costs expected to be incurred through the completion of the development of the Coronary ISR indication, for which we are primarily responsible. We have recognized $16.7 million in cumulative partnership revenues from 2019 through September 30, 2025. There were no other proceeds received pursuant to the Terumo Agreement from 2019 through September 30, 2025.

Virtue SAB is a highly differentiated, first-of-its-kind non-coated drug delivery angioplasty balloon system designed to deliver a large liquid dose of proprietary extended-release formulation of sirolimus, SirolimusEFR™, for the treatment of atherosclerotic artery disease, the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Virtue SAB has been granted BDD by the FDA for the treatment of coronary in-stent restenosis, coronary small vessel disease and below-the-knee peripheral artery disease, in each case, within specified parameters. We initiated patient enrollments in the Virtue SAB in the Treatment of Coronary In-Stent Restenosis (“ISR”) Trial (the “Virtue Trial”) for our U.S. investigational device exemption (“IDE”) pivotal study randomizing Virtue SAB vs. Boston Scientific Corporation’s AGENT™ drug-coated balloon. Designed to support regulatory approval of Virtue SAB, the Virtue Trial is expected to enroll 740 patients in the United States with enrollment completion currently planned for 2027. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to complete enrollment of the BACKBEAT Trial or the Virtue Trial in the timeframes we anticipate.

We expect to lose emerging growth company status on December 31, 2025. However, we will continue to be a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Exchange Act after we lose emerging growth company status. As a smaller reporting company, we will continue to not be required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as long as (a) our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and (b) the market value of our voting and non-voting Company Common Stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. We may also take advantage of certain reduced disclosure requirements as a smaller reporting company, including, but not limited to, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We will be able to take advantage of these scaled disclosures for so long as (i) the market value of our voting and non-voting Company Common Stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or (ii)(a) our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and (b) the market value of our voting and non-voting Company Common Stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million measured on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.

Research and development expenses increased by $9.5 million, or approximately 30%, to $41.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $31.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The increase included an increase of $5.3 million in clinical development costs, an increase in personnel-related expenses of $3.4 million due to increased headcount and consulting costs, and an increase in stock-based compensation of $1.1 million, partially offset by a decrease of $329,000 in non-clinical development costs associated with research and development program costs, supplies, and testing.

In June 2022, Orchestra BioMed, Inc., BackBeat Medical, LLC and Medtronic entered into the Medtronic Agreement for the development and commercialization of AVIM Therapy for the treatment of pacemaker-indicated patients with uncontrolled HTN despite the use of anti-hypertensive medications.

In addition, we concluded Medtronic is a customer for a good or service that is a distinct unit of account, and therefore the transactions in the Medtronic Agreement should be accounted for under ASC 606. Through September 30, 2025, there have been no amounts recognized as revenue under the Medtronic Agreement.
