Current report
Our first product, the CGuard Carotid Embolic Prevention System (“CGuard EPS”), integrates a self-expanding nitinol stent with a MicroNet mesh sleeve as a single device for carotid artery revascularization. In January 2024, we received CE Mark recertification for CGuard EPS under the EU Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”). Our CGuard EPS previously held CE Mark approval under the former Medical Device Directive (“MDD”). CGuard EPS is marketed in over 30 countries outside the United States through a network of distributors. In the first quarter of 2026, we submitted a premarket approval for the CGuard EPS with a view to potential FDA approval in the in the third quarter of 2026.
Current report
Our second product, the CGuard Prime Carotid Stent System (“CGuard Prime”), uses the same stent and MicroNet mesh as the CGuard EPS with a differentiated deployment mechanism. CGuard Prime received premarket approval (“PMA”) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) on June 23, 2025, and is marketed exclusively in the United States through our direct salesforce. It also received MDR CE Mark approval on June 12, 2025.
Current report
In November 2025, the results of the CREST-2 study were released, which showed that CAS combined with medical therapy demonstrated a significantly lower stroke risk as compared to intensive medical management alone in patients with severe asymptomatic carotid stenosis. CREST-2 was an independent study sponsored by the National Institute of Health (NIH) with a set of two parallel, observer-blinded clinical trials across 155 centers globally. CREST-2 showed that, among patients with high-grade carotid stenosis without recent neurological symptoms, the addition of stenting led to significantly better outcomes than intensive medical management alone, as measured by a decreased risk of the composite of perioperative stroke or death or ipsilateral stroke within four years. In a separate arm of the same trial, carotid endarterectomy (“CEA”) did not achieve a significant benefit for these patients as compared to intensive medical management alone.
Current report
We continue to invest in new product generations and potential new clinical indications for the CGuard platform with a strategy of focusing on advancing a “stent-first” approach to carotid revascularization. As part of this strategy, we are evaluating CGuard Prime in TCAR-based clinical programs, including the CGUARDIANS II pivotal trial, which studies the use of the CGuard Prime 80 cm carotid stent system in conjunction with an established neuroprotection device, and the CGUARDIANS III pivotal trial, which evaluates our proprietary SwitchGuard neuroprotection system (“SwitchGuard NPS”) paired with CGuard Prime to enable flow-reversal neuroprotection during TCAR. In parallel, we are pursuing new clinical applications outside TCAR, including the treatment of acute ischemic stroke with tandem lesions, which is currently being studied in an early feasibility study conducted with the Jacobs Institute. In this acute-stroke setting, the flexible, low-metal-burden design and MicroNet mesh of CGuard Prime may offer advantages where traditional embolic-protection devices cannot be used.
Current report
In May 2026, we announced a voluntary recall in the U.S. of CGuard Prime, initiated in consultation with the FDA. The Company acted after determining during a controlled launch that the technical success of the delivery system during CAS procedures had not met performance expectations. The voluntary action pertained specifically to the CGuard Prime delivery system and did not include the CGuard stent implant. The action was voluntary with no implications for the safety of patients who had previously received the CGuard stent. The Company expects to establish a reserve for customer returns of approximately $700,000 and a reserve for inventory impairment and remediation costs of approximately $650,000.
Current report
Gross Profit. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, gross profit (revenue less cost of revenues) was $687,000 compared to gross profit of $292,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase resulted mainly from the increase in revenue year-on-year, partially offset by higher cost of revenues resulting from an impairment charge of $473,000 for inventory obsolescence related to our CGuard Prime delivery system
Current report
Gross margin represents our gross profit as a percentage of our revenue. Gross margin was 20.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of 1.1 percentage points compared to 19.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase in gross margin resulted primarily from a more favorable revenue mix driven by direct sales in the U.S., which carry higher margins due to a higher average selling price per unit compared with sales to international distributors. The impact from the favorable sales mix was primarily offset by the impact of the impairment charge for excess and obsolete inventory referenced above.
Current report
General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, general and administrative expenses were $4,722,000, a decrease of $221,000, or 4.5%, compared to $4,943,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in share-based compensation expense resulting from forfeitures associated with executive employees who departed during the period.
Current report
Financial Income. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, financial income was $289,000, a decrease of $5,000 or 1.7% compared to $294,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Current report
Tax Expenses. We did not incur any tax expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025.
Current report
In April 2026, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “2026 Distribution Agreement”) with BTIG, LLC, as sales agent (“BTIG”). Pursuant to the 2026 Distribution Agreement, we may offer and sell from time to time, at our option, through or to BTIG shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $75 million. Wewill pay BTIG a commission at a fixed rate of up to 3.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds from each sale of the shares under the 2026 Distribution Agreement. As of the date hereof, we have not sold any shares pursuant to the 2026 Distribution Agreement.

Our CGuard™ carotid embolic prevention system (“CGuard EPS”) combines MicroNet and a unique self-expandable nitinol stent in a single device for use in carotid artery revascularization. Our CGuard EPS originally received CE mark approval under Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC (“MDD”) in the European Union (“EU”) in March 2013 and was fully launched in Europe in September 2015. Subsequently, we launched CGuard EPS in over 30 countries and on February 3, 2021, we executed a distribution agreement with Chinese partners for the purpose of expanding our presence in the Asian markets. In January 2024, we received CE mark recertification under the EU’s Medical Device Regulation (“MDR”) regulatory framework.
Previous report
On September 8, 2020, we received approval from the FDA of our Investigation Device Exemption (“IDE”), thereby allowing us to proceed with a pivotal study of our CGuard™ Carotid Stent System, C-GUARDIANS, for prevention of stroke in patients in the United States. C-GUARDIANS was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, pivotal study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CGuard™ Carotid Stent System when used to treat symptomatic and asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis in patients undergoing CAS. The study, which completed enrollment in June 2023, enrolled 316 patients across 24 trial sites in the U.S. and Europe and from April 2023 included deployment of the CGuard stent using CGuard Prime, our next generation CAS stent platform.
Previous report
The primary endpoint was a composite of: (1) incidence of major adverse events including Death (all-cause mortality), any Stroke, and Myocardial Infarction (DSMI) through 30-days post index procedure, or (2) ipsilateral stroke from day 31 to day 365 post-procedure. All events were adjudicated by an independent clinical events committee. The composite index was compared to a performance goal based on the observed rate of the two components of the primary endpoint from previous pivotal stent trials which are considered industry standard. The performance goal was considered met if the upper bound of the two-sided 95% confidence interval calculated from the observed primary endpoint rate is < 11.6% and the p-value is less than 0.025.
Previous report
In November 2023, we announced positive 30-day follow up results from the C-GUARDIANS trial in which stenting with the CGuard Carotid Stent System in patients with carotid artery stenosis and at high risk for carotid endarterectomy had a DSMI rate of 0.95%, measured from the date of the procedure through 30 days follow-up post-procedure. In May 2024, we announced positive one-year follow up results from the C-GUARDIANS trial, with a rate of 30-day DSMI and ipsilateral stroke between 31 and 365 days of 1.95%.
Previous report
These data were used to support the PMA submission in September 2024, which was approved by the FDA on June 23, 2025. On June 12, 2025, we received CE Mark approval under the EU’s MDR for the CGuard Prime Embolic Prevention System.
Previous report
We continue to invest in current and future potential new indications, products and manufacturing enhancements for CGuard that are expected to reduce cost of goods and/or provide the best-in-class performing delivery systems, such as CGuard Prime. In furtherance of our strategy that focuses on establishing the CGuard Carotid Stent System as a viable alternative to vascular surgery, we are developing a new transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) system, SwitchGuard™ neuroprotection system (“SwitchGuard NPS”), for transcarotid access and neuro protection. In addition, we intend to explore new indications for CGuard to leverage the advantages of stent design and mesh protection, well suited in labels such as acute stroke with tandem lesions.

Previous wording
We are a medical device company focusing on the development and commercialization of products for the treatment of carotid artery disease and other vascular disease, including our proprietary CGuard™ stent platform. On June 23, 2025, CGuard Prime, our next generation carotid artery stenting (“CAS”) stent platform, was granted premarket application (“PMA”) approval the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”). A stent is an expandable scaffold-like device, usually constructed of a metallic material, that is inserted into the lumen of an artery to create patency and improved blood flow. A sleeve of MicroNet™ mesh is attached over a stent to provide embolic protection both during and after stenting procedures.

Previous wording
We consider our current addressable market for our CGuard Carotid Stent System and SwitchGuard NPS to be both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals with diagnosed high-grade carotid artery stenosis for whom intervention is preferable to medical (drug) therapy. This group includes not only carotid artery stenting patients but also individuals undergoing carotid endarterectomy, as the two approaches compete for the same patient population. Assuming full penetration of the intervention caseload by CGuard, we estimate that the addressable market for CGuard Carotid Stent System and SwitchGuard NPS is approximately $1.3 billion (source: Health Research International Personal Medical Systems, Inc. September 13, 2021 Results of Update Report on Global Carotid Stenting Procedures and Markets by Major Geography and Addressable Markets and internal estimates). According to this same report and internal estimates, assuming full penetration of treatment for all individuals diagnosed with high-grade carotid artery stenosis, we estimate the total available market for CGuard Carotid Stent System and SwitchGuard NPS to be approximately $9.3 billion, which may grow over time if expanded treatment options such as CGuard Carotid Stent System and SwitchGuard NPS lead to increased patient screening for carotid artery disease.
Current wording
We consider our current addressable market for our CGuard EPS, CGuard Prime, and SwitchGuard NPS to be both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals with diagnosed high-grade carotid artery stenosis for whom intervention is preferable to medical (drug) therapy. This group includes not only patients eligible for either CAS or TCAR procedures, but also individuals who are candidates for CEA, as all three approaches can be options to treat these patients. Assuming full penetration of the intervention caseload, we estimate that the addressable market for CGuard EPS, CGuard Prime, and SwitchGuard NPS is approximately $1.3 billion (source: Health Research International Personal Medical Systems, Inc.

Our operating results could also be impacted by a weakening of the Euro and strengthening of the NIS, both against the U.S. dollar.
