Non-GAAP Disclosure In addition to the Company’s financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company provides non-GAAP measures that it determines to be useful in evaluating its operating performance and liquidity. The Company presents in this press release the following non-GAAP financial measures: earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“adjusted EBITDA”), adjusted gross margin and adjusted gross profit. The Company defines EBITDA as GAAP net loss excluding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, and the Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding loss from discontinued operations, stock-based compensation, FiberCel and VBM litigation costs, loss or gain on revaluation of warrant liability, warrant issuance expenses and loss or gain on revaluation of revenue interest obligation. The Company defines adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin as GAAP gross profit and GAAP gross margin, respectively, excluding amortization of acquired intangible assets. The amortization of these intangible assets will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Management believes that presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company’s core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. The Company uses this non-GAAP financial information to establish budgets, manage the Company’s business, and set incentive and compensation arrangements. Non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental information purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to GAAP, see below “Non-GAAP Reconciliations of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA” and “Non-GAAP Reconciliations of Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin.” Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Elixir Medical Highlights Results From “Real World” MY-IVL Study Demonstrating Performance of LithiX™ Hertz Contact (HC) Intravascular Lithotripsy System (IVL) in Treating Calcified Coronary Lesions

LithiX™ HC-IVL is a novel lithotripsy system designed to facilitate treatment of heart disease exacerbated by the presence of calcium within coronary artery plaques MY-IVL study enrolled 102 real world complex patients (130 lesions) with core lab adjudicated intravascular imaging analysis MILPITAS, Calif., Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  Elixir Medical, a developer of disruptive technologies to treat cardiovascular disease, announced results from the MY-IVL Study at the Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) Conference 2025 in San Francisco. The data showed excellent clinical outcomes for LithiX™ Hertz Contact (HC) Intravascular Lithotripsy System (IVL) in the treatment of severely calcified coronary lesions among complex and high-risk percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) patients. The MY-IVL Study evaluated 102 consecutive all-comer patients with notable severe calcified coronary artery disease treated with LithiX HC-IVL between April and September 2025 at Cardiac Vascular Sentral Kuala Lumpur Hospital (CVSKL), Malaysia’s first and leading private heart and vascular center. Angiographic and intravascular imaging from all patients was analyzed and adjudicated by an independent core lab MedStar Cardiovascular Research Network Core Laboratory at Washington Hospital Center, Washington, DC. The study included a broad range of clinically complex patients with multiple comorbidities clinically presenting with stable angina or acute coronary syndrome, including patients in cardiogenic shock, reflecting the device’s use and performance in everyday practice. Patient and lesion characteristics include: 102 patients with 130 lesions treatedAverage lesion length was 19.72 ± 14.09 mm and more than 30% of lesions were longer than 20 mm with an average length of 35.7 mm88% of lesions had severe calcificationCalcification in 41% of lesions was eccentric (arc of ≤ 270°), including 20% of lesions with an arc ≤ 180°94.6% of lesions were Class B2/C by American Heart Association (AHA) classification, which is associated with almost a two-fold risk of target lesion failure events within 30 days as compared to noncomplex lesions 1 Key clinical and procedural findings include: 96.1% of freedom from MACE at 30 days (Primary Safety Endpoint)Angiographic diameter stenosis of < 30% without intra-procedural MACE was achieved in 96.3% of patients following DES treatment There were no LithiX HC-IVL device-related angiographic procedural complications Key core lab adjudicated intravascular imaging results: Post procedure mean minimum stent area (MSA) was 6.89 mm², exceeding the powered performance goal (PG) of 4.9 mm² (p 100% was achieved in all lesion morphologies, including concentric and eccentric calcification “LithiX represents an important advancement in PCI. In our experience, its notable advantages include versatility and high treatment effect in modifying the most complex calcified lesions using a simpler procedure flow, particularly in this study with only a single device used per procedure, including multiple and long lesions,” said Dr. Tamil Selvan Muthusamy, Consultant Cardiologist at CVSKL and Co-Principal Investigator of the MY-IVL Study. The LithiX HC-IVL System is an advanced intravascular lithotripsy technology designed to optimize device expansion in calcified coronary artery blockages during a PCI procedure. Unlike energy-based systems dependent on an external energy generator, LithiX device is a highly deliverable mechanical lithotripsy device using a balloon with integrated low-profile metallic hemispheres to create focal pressure amplification based on Hertz Contact Stress theory. “Our study demonstrates excellent calcium modification potential of this novel Hertz Contact Lithotripsy technology, with MSA above 100% in all treated lesions, even those with less than 180% degree arc of calcium, which, based on our experience, are often difficult to treat with existing calcium modification devices,” added Dr. Rosli Mohd Ali, Consultant Cardiologist at CVSKL and Co-Principal Investigator of the MY-IVL Study. The Hertz Contact Lithotripsy hemispheres work selectively on calcium within the lesion, breaking and fragmenting the hardened plaque under low balloon inflation pressure. The hemispheres (27 to 45 depending on device size) are designed to create highly localized points of amplified force to create deep and wide fractures at the multiple points of contact with calcium while being atraumatic to the adjacent non-calcified vessel due to the tissue’s elasticity.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company had a total of 250 active implanting centers in the U.S., compared to 240 as of June 30, 2025. Active implanting centers are customers that have completed at least one commercial HF implant in the last 12 months. The number of sales territories in the U.S. increased by three to a total of 50 during the three months ended September 30, 2025. Revenue generated in Europe was $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $0.1 million, or 12%, over the three months ended September 30, 2024. Total revenue units in Europe decreased to 50 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 56 in the prior year period. The number of sales territories in Europe remained consistent at five for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Gross profit was $12.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.6 million, or 15%, over the three months ended September 30, 2024. Gross margin increased to 87% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 83% for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was higher due to an increase in the average selling price and a decrease in the cost per unit, primarily due to an increase in manufacturing efficiencies. R&D expenses increased $0.6 million, or 26%, to $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. This change was driven by a $0.5 million increase in compensation expenses and a $0.2 million increase in consulting expenses, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in clinical trial expenses. SG&A expenses increased $0.2 million, or 1%, to $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. This change was primarily driven by a $0.2 million increase in consulting expenses, a $0.2 million increase in travel expenses, and a $0.2 million increase in non-cash stock-based compensation expense, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in advertising expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in compensation expenses. Interest expense increased $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was driven by the interest expense on higher levels of borrowings under the term loan agreement with Innovatus Capital Partners.
