Previous wording

We primarily sell our solutions through our direct sales organization, which covers most major metropolitan markets in the United States. Our sales organization is comprised of our capital sales team, responsible for generating new customer demand for Tablo, and our clinical sales team, responsible for driving utilization and fleet expansion of Tablo at existing customer sites. In addition, our field service team provides maintenance services and product support to our customers. Our field sales and service teams represent 57% of our total full-time employees as of March 31, 2026. The same sales organization and field service team drive Tablo penetration in both the acute and home markets. We believe the ability to leverage one team to serve both markets will result in significant productivity and cost optimization as we continue to scale our business.

Previous wording

We plan to further broaden our installed base by continuing to target national and regional integrated delivery networks and health systems, SNFs, LTACHs and other post-acute providers. In addition, we focus on driving utilization and fleet expansion with existing customers by providing an exceptional user experience delivered through our commercial team and a steady release of software enhancements that amplify Tablo’s operational reliability and clinical versatility. Our ability to successfully execute on this strategy, and thereby increase our revenue in the acute market, will depend on several factors. These factors include the success of our initiatives to optimize and further evolve our commercial organization, infrastructure and sales processes to support the growth of our business in the acute and post-acute care markets as we focus more heavily on enterprise selling and transition beyond earlier stage adoption of Tablo.
