Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form10-K and in our other SEC filings. The following discussion may contain predictions, estimates, and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including those discussed under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These risks could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future performance suggested below.

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for 2025 as compared to 2024 are discussed below. For a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for 2024 as compared to 2023, please refer to Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except as set forth below.

The principal objectives of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are to enhance our overall financial disclosures by providing explanation and analysis of the Company’s financial results and condition, as viewed by our management.

Overview

We are a global provider of medical devices and human tissue cryopreservation services largely used in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease, end-stage renal disease, and cardiovascular disease. We develop, manufacture, and market vascular devices to address the needs of vascular surgeons and, to a lesser degree, other specialties such as cardiac surgeons, general surgeons, and neurosurgeons. Our diversified portfolio of devices consists of brand name products that are used in arteries and veins and are well known to vascular surgeons. Our principal product offerings are sold globally, primarily in the United States, Europe, Canada, and Asia Pacific, or APAC. We estimate that the annual worldwide market for peripheral vascular devices exceeds $9 billion, within which we estimate that the market for our products is approximately $1 billion. We have grown our business using a three-pronged strategy: 1) pursuing a focused call point, 2) competing for sales of low-rivalry, niche products, and 3) expanding our worldwide direct sales force while acquiring complementary devices. We have used acquisitions as a primary means of further penetrating the peripheral vascular device market, and we expect to continue this strategy in the future. We currently manufacture most of our products in our Burlington, Massachusetts headquarters.

Our products and services are used primarily by vascular surgeons who treat peripheral vascular disease through both open surgical methods and endovascular techniques. In contrast to interventional cardiologists and interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons can perform both open surgical and minimally invasive endovascular procedures, and therefore can provide a wider range of treatment options to their patients. Recently we have also begun to explore adjacent market customers, such as cardiac surgeons and interventional cardiologists.

Our principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy and occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes. Through our RestoreFlow allografts business, we also process and cryopreserve human vascular and cardiac tissue.

Our principal biologic offerings include vascular and cardiac patches as well as vascular and dialysis grafts. In 2025, biologics represented 53% of our worldwide sales. We believe our biologic devices represent differentiated and, in many cases, growing product segments.

Our business opportunities include the following:

growing our direct sales force in North America, Europe, and APAC, including replacing distributors with our direct sales personnel;

increasing the average selling prices of our devices;

introducing our products into new territories upon receipt of regulatory approvals or registrations;

acquiring complementary products and the transition of distributor sales to LeMaitre;

updating existing products and introducing new products through research and development, and

consolidating product manufacturing into our Burlington, Massachusetts facilities.

We sell our products and services primarily through a direct sales force. Our worldwide headquarters is located in Burlington, Massachusetts, and we also have a North American sales office in Vaughan, Canada. Our European headquarters is located in Sulzbach, Germany, and we also have European sales offices in Milan, Italy; Madrid, Spain; Hereford, England; Dublin, Ireland; Maisons-Alfort, France; and Glattbrugg, Switzerland. Our APAC headquarters is located in Singapore, and we also have APAC sales offices in Tokyo, Japan; Shanghai, China; Docklands, Australia; Seoul, Korea; and Bangkok, Thailand. During the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 95% of our net sales were generated in territories in which we employ direct sales representatives. We sell our products in other countries through distributors. As of December 31, 2025, our sales force comprised 160 sales representatives and export managers in North America, Europe, and APAC.

Historically we have experienced success in lower-rivalry niche segments. In the valvulotome market, for example, our differentiated devices have historically allowed us to increase average selling prices without incurring significant unit share loss. In contrast, we have experienced less success in competitive markets such as the polyester vascular graft market, where we face competition from larger companies with greater resources and lower per unit costs.

We have also experienced success in international markets, such as Europe, where we have a significant sales force, and sometimes offer lower average selling prices than in North America. If we continue to seek growth opportunities outside of North America, we may experience downward pressure on our gross margin.

We obtain regulatory approvals for our devices and services in new product categories and geographies to further access the broader peripheral device market and selected other markets, thus extending our geographic reach. Recent approvals include approvals to sell the XenoSure patch for carotid indication in Japan in May 2023, and the Pruitt Irrigation Occlusion Catheter in China in October 2023; approvals to sell the Artegraft bovine graft in Thailand and Malaysia in August 2024 and South Africa in October 2024, and the XenoSure patch for cardiac indications in China in December 2024; and approvals to sell the Artegraft bovine graft in the European Union (EU) in April 2025, Australia in June 2025, and Canada in December 2025, the Pruitt Aortic Occlusion Catheter in the EU in May 2025, and the Pruitt Occlusion Catheter in China in June 2025.

Separately, our regulatory efforts to maintain approvals in the EU and the United Kingdom (UK) have succeeded ahead of the full EU transition from the Medical Device Directive (MDD) to the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and the UK transition to the United Kingdom Conformity Assessed (UKCA) mark. As of January 2026, we have 22 MDR CE marks and 18 UKCA approvals. Those 22 CE and 18 UKCA marks represent substantially all of our product approvals in the EU and UK. The European Commission has designated the end of 2028 as the final MDR CE mark transition deadline.

Additionally, we provide cryopreservation services for our RestoreFlow allografts primarily in the US, the UK, and Canada. In October 2025, we received approval from the German authority on tissue banking to allow sale of these services in the German market.

44

Our strategy for growing our business includes acquisitions of complementary product lines and companies, which can be difficult to identify, negotiate, and purchase. There can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.

In December 2025, we entered into an agreement with Andramed GmbH to purchase the assets of their AndraValvulotome business for $1.8 million plus additional payments of up to $0.8 million, contingent upon the passage of time and, separately, receipt of CE mark approval.

Occasionally we discontinue or divest products that are no longer complementary to our business or not commercially viable.

During 2024, we made the decision to wind down the PeriVu Angioscope product line. This product totaled approximately $0.9 million in 2024 revenues.

During 2025, we made the decision to terminate our cardiovascular porcine patch distribution agreement with Elutia. Previously, in April 2023, we had entered into an agreement with Elutia to become the exclusive U.S. distributor of their cardiovascular porcine patches. Under the agreement, we could distribute the products for three years with an option to acquire Elutia’s worldwide cardiovascular porcine patch business during the second and third years of the agreement. This product totaled approximately $1.8 million in 2025 revenues.

During 2025, we made the decision to wind down the CardioCel 3D and DuraSure product lines. These product lines totaled approximately $0.5 million in 2025 revenues. Additionally, in 2025 we made the decision to wind down the AnastoClip AC Closure System in North America. This product totaled approximately $0.7 million in 2025 revenues.

From time to time we undertake SKU reductions and attempt to transition sales to other SKUs or products with similar features. Any of these actions may result in inventory write-offs and temporary or permanent negative impacts to our sales, gross margin, and customer relationships.

Because we believe that direct-to-hospital sales create closer customer relationships, and allow for higher selling prices and gross margins through elimination of an intermediary, we periodically enter into transactions with country-specific distributors to transition their sales of our medical devices into our direct sales organization:

In March 2023, we entered into a distribution transition agreement with our Thai distributor to sell products directly in Thailand and dissolve the existing distribution arrangement. We have been selling direct-to-hospital in Thailand since August 2023. The distribution termination fees totaled approximately $0.7 million.

In March 2025, we entered into a distribution transition agreement with our Portuguese distributor to sell products directly in Portugal and dissolve the existing distribution arrangement. We have been selling direct-to-hospitals in Portugal since May 2025. The distribution termination fees are expected to total approximately $0.2 million.

In June 2025, we entered into a distribution transition agreement with our Czech distributor to sell products directly in Czechia and dissolve the existing distribution arrangement. We have been selling direct-to-hospitals in Czechia since July 2025. The distribution termination fees are expected to total approximately $0.1 million.

We also benefit, to a lesser extent, from internal product development efforts to bring differentiated technologies and next-generation products and services to market:

In March 2022, we received FDA clearance to market PhasTIPP, a portable powered phlebectomy device used to remove varicose veins in the leg. The device was launched in the United States in April 2024.

45

In addition to our sales growth strategies, we have also executed several operational initiatives designed to consolidate manufacturing into our Burlington facilities. We expect these plant consolidations and manufacturing transfers will result in improved control over production quality as well as reduced costs. Our most recent manufacturing transfer was:

In October 2019, we acquired the CardioCel and VascuCel biologic patch businesses from Anteris. The transfer to Burlington was substantially completed in 2023. In June 2023, the MDR CE mark application for these Burlington-produced devices was submitted, and we obtained approval in January 2025, allowing for distribution of these patches in the EU. We began distributing these Burlington-produced patches in the United States, Canada and select APAC markets in 2024.

Our execution of these initiatives may affect the comparability of our financial results and may cause fluctuations from period to period.

In February 2024, we began implementing a new enterprise resource planning, or ERP, system to replace our financial reporting and planning system. In the United States, we transitioned from our legacy ERP system to our newly implemented Microsoft Dynamics D365 system in February 2024. In February 2025, we implemented this new system in the UK. We intend to continue rolling out the new system in our other international locations on a staged basis. The new ERP system has been beneficial in a number of areas, including inventory management, pricing programs, financial operations and real-time reporting. As of December 31, 2025, we have net capitalized costs on our balance sheet of $4.6 million associated with this ERP system.

Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, affect our financial results. For the year ended December 31, 2025, approximately 43% of our sales took place outside of the United States, largely in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We expect foreign currencies will represent a significant percentage of future sales. Selling, marketing, and administrative costs related to these sales are also denominated in foreign currencies, thereby partially mitigating our bottom-line exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. If there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require less of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases we will record more revenue in U.S. dollars than we would have if the exchange rate had not changed. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we estimate that the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates increased our reported sales by approximately $2.7 million, as compared to rates in effect for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Net Sales and Expense Components

The following is a description of the primary components of our net sales and expenses:

Net sales. We derive our net sales from the sale of our products and services, less discounts and returns. Net sales include the shipping and handling fees paid by our customers. Most of our sales are generated by our direct sales force and are shipped and billed to hospitals or clinics globally. In countries where we do not have a direct sales force, sales are primarily to distributors, who in turn sell to hospitals and clinics. In limited cases our products are held on consignment at a hospital or clinic prior to purchase; in those instances we recognize revenue at the time the product is used in surgery rather than at shipment.

Cost of sales. We manufacture the majority of the products that we sell. Cost of sales consists primarily of manufacturing personnel wages, raw materials and components, depreciation of property and equipment, and other allocated manufacturing overhead, including an allocation of our quality department expenses. Additionally, cost of sales includes the freight expenses we pay to ship products to customers, inventory scrap charges, and excess and obsolescence expenses.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, contests, stock-based compensation, travel and entertainment, sales meetings, attendance at vascular and cardiac congresses, training programs,

46

advertising and product promotions, direct mail, and other marketing costs. Additionally, sales and marketing expense includes customer service department personnel charges.

General and administrative. General and administrative expense consists primarily of executive, finance and human resource salaries, stock-based compensation, legal and accounting fees, information technology expense, intangible asset amortization expense, and insurance expense.

Research and development. Research and development expense primarily includes costs associated with obtaining and maintaining regulatory approval of our products, salaries, laboratory testing, and supply costs. It also includes costs associated with the design and execution of clinical studies and costs to transfer the manufacturing of acquired product lines to our Burlington facility. Additionally, research and development expense includes costs associated with the design, development, testing, and enhancement of new or existing products.

Other income (expense). Other income (expense) primarily includes interest and dividend income, realized gains (losses) from the sale of debt and equity investments, unrealized gains (losses) from equity investments, interest expense for the convertible senior notes, foreign currency gains (losses), and other miscellaneous gains (losses).

Income tax expense. We are subject to federal and state income taxes for earnings generated in the United States, which include operating losses or profits in certain foreign jurisdictions for certain years depending on tax elections made, and foreign taxes on earnings of our wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. Our consolidated income tax expense is affected by the mix of our taxable income (loss) in the United States and foreign subsidiaries, permanent items, discrete items, unrecognized tax benefits, and amortization of goodwill for U.S. tax reporting purposes.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the year ended December31, 2025 to the year ended December31, 2024

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, our net sales by geography, and the change between the specified periods expressed as a percentage increase or decrease:

($ in thousands)

Net sales by geography:

Net sales. Net sales increased by $29.7 million, or 14%, to $249.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $219.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by higher average selling prices, higher unit volumes shipped to customers, the European launch of Artegraft, and additional sales representatives. Graft sales increased $16.0 million, valvulotome sales increased $4.7 million, shunt sales increased $3.5 million, catheter sales increased $2.8 million, and patch sales increased $1.8 million. We estimate that the weaker U.S. dollar increased net sales by $2.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024.

Direct-to-hospital net sales were 95% of our total net sales for both the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

47

Net sales by geography. Net sales in the Americas increased $15.1 million, or 10%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of grafts of $10.4 million, valvulotomes of $3.1 million, and catheters of $0.9 million.

EMEA net sales increased $13.2 million, or 22%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of grafts of $5.1 million, which includes the launch of Artegraft, shunts of $2.8 million, catheters of $2.1 million, patches of $1.8 million, and valvulotomes of $1.3 million.

Asia Pacific net sales increased $1.5 million, or 10%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by increased sales of grafts and patches of $0.5 million each, valvulotomes of $0.3 million, and clips of $0.2 million.

Gross Profit. The following table sets forth the change in our gross profit and gross margin for the periods indicated:

($ in thousands)

* Not applicable

Gross profit increased $27.6 million, or 18%, to $178.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $150.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, and gross margin increased by 290 basis points to 71.5% in the period, as compared to 68.6% for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in gross profit was driven primarily by increased sales, particularly from grafts, valvulotomes, and shunts, and the receipt of the U.S. Employee Retention Credit ("ERC"). The increase in gross margin was driven primarily by the ERC, greater manufacturing efficiencies, and sales price increases, partially offset by increased shipping and warehousing costs and unfavorable product mix, including increased sales of comparatively lower margin allograft preservation services, ovine grafts, and single lumen embolectomy catheters. The ERC received in 2025 had a favorable impact of $2.7 million, or 109 basis points, to the gross margin.

Operating Expenses. The following table sets forth the change in our operating expenses for the periods indicated and the change between the specified periods expressed as a percentage increase or decrease:

($ in thousands)

Sales and marketing. For the year ended December 31, 2025, sales and marketing expenses increased 17% to $54.5 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher sales representative headcount and wage increases, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $6.6 million, which was partially offset by the ERC. Additionally, professional fees and outside services expenses increased $1.1 million and travel and training expenses increased $0.6 million. Sales force headcount was 160 as of December 31, 2025, a 5% increase from December 31, 2024. The ERC received in 2025 had a favorable impact, reducing sales and marketing expenses by $0.8 million. As a percentage of net sales, sales and marketing expenses increased to 22% for the year ended December 31, 2025, up from 21% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

48

General and administrative. For the year ended December 31, 2025, general and administrative expenses increased 16% to $42.0 million. The increase was driven primarily by higher headcount and wage increases, which resulted in increased compensation and related expenses of $4.1 million, which was partially offset by the ERC. Additionally, facilities expenses increased $1.0 million and travel and training expenses increased $0.2 million. The ERC received in 2025 had a favorable impact, reducing general and administrative expenses by $0.3 million, offset by third party consultant fees of $0.7 million. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses increased to 17% for the year ended December 31, 2025, up from 16% for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Research and development. For the year ended December 31, 2025, research and development expenses decreased 10% to $14.1 million. The decrease was primarily driven by lower third party service fees, which resulted in decreased professional fees and outside services expenses related to MDR activities of $1.8 million, partially offset by increased facilities expenses of $0.3 million and compensation and related expenses of $0.1 million. The increase in compensation and related expenses was partially offset by the ERC received in 2025, which had a favorable impact reducing research and development expenses by $0.3 million. As a percentage of net sales, research and development expenses decreased to 6% for the year ended December 31, 2025, down from 7% for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Income tax expense. We recorded a tax provision of $17.5 million on pre-tax income of $75.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $12.8 million on pre-tax income of $56.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Our effective income tax rate was 23.2% for the year ended December 31, 2025. Our tax expense for 2025 is based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of 25.1%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly periods for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for 2025 varies from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.

Our effective income tax rate was 22.6% for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our 2024 provision was based on an estimated annual effective tax rate of 24.5%, adjusted in the applicable quarterly period for discrete stock option exercises and other discrete items. Our income tax expense for 2024 varied from the statutory rate mainly due to the generation of federal and state tax credits, permanent items, different statutory rates from our foreign entities, and a discrete item for stock option exercises.

We assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable income and record a valuation allowance to reduce gross deferred tax assets to an amount we believe is more likely than not to be realized. As of December 31, 2025, we have a valuation allowance of $1.7 million for deferred tax assets primarily related to Australian net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards and Massachusetts tax credit carry forwards that are not expected to be realized.

The Inflation Reduction Act ("IRA") was enacted into law on August 16, 2022. Included in the IRA was a provision to implement a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on “adjusted financial statement income” for applicable corporations and a 1% excise tax on repurchases of stock. These provisions are effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. We do not currently believe the IRA will have a material impact on our reported results, cash flows, or financial position.

On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act ("OBBA") into law, which is considered the enactment date under US GAAP. Key corporate tax provisions include the restoration of 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying assets, immediate expensing for domestic research and experimental expenditures, changes to Section 163(j) interest limitations, updates to U.S. tax rules on international sales and operations, amendments to energy credits, and expanded Section 162(m) aggregation requirements.

In 2025, we implemented provisions of the OBBA, fully recognizing the deduction of domestic research and experimental expenditures previously capitalized under Section 174 of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result of this

49

implementation, we adjusted our deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities to reflect the change in tax treatment for these expenditures. The impact of these adjustments is reflected in our 2025 tax provision and financial statements. We will continue to monitor future legislative developments and assess their impact on our tax position and financial reporting.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2025, our cash and cash equivalents were $28.2 million, as compared to $25.6 million as of December 31, 2024. We had $330.9 million in short-term marketable securities as of December 31, 2025, as compared to $274.1 million as of December 31, 2024. Our cash and cash equivalents are bank deposits and liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held in our operating bank accounts. Our short-term marketable securities primarily include corporate debt securities, U.S. government agency securities, money market investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held outside of our operating bank accounts, and a short-duration bond equity fund. As of December 31, 2025, our short-term marketable securities reflected an unrealized gain of less than $0.1 million.

On February 19, 2026, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of our common stock through transactions on the open market, in privately negotiated purchases, or otherwise until February 18, 2027. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. To date we have not made any repurchases under this or any prior program.

Convertible Senior Notes

On December 19, 2024, we issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2030, or the Convertible Notes, in a Rule 144A private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to an indenture dated December 19, 2024, by and between us and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, or the Indenture.

The Convertible Notes will mature on February 1, 2030, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Notes were approximately $167.7 million, net of debt issuance costs totaling $4.8 million. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.50% per year, and interest is payable semiannually in arrears on August 1 and February 1 of each year. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we paid $2.7 million in interest payments. We did not make interest payments for the year ended December 31, 2024. The initial conversion rate was 8.3521 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $119.73 per share of common stock and a premium of approximately 30% over the closing price of our common stock on December 16, 2024. In connection with the most recent payment made on December 4, 2025 of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share (an increase from the quarterly dividend amount of $0.16 per share as of the time of issuance of the Convertible Notes), the conversion rate of the Convertible Notes was increased to 8.3676 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes, which represents a conversion price of approximately $119.51 per share of common stock. A similar adjustment to the conversion rate will be made upon payment of the quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 on March 26, 2026, and upon payment of subsequent quarterly dividends in excess of $0.16 per share. The conversion rate and conversion price are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events as described in the Indenture.

Noteholders may convert all or a portion of their Convertible Notes at their option only in the following circumstances: (1) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2025, if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price for each of at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter; (2) during the five consecutive business days immediately after any five consecutive trading day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price per share of our common stock on such trading day and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) upon the occurrence of certain corporate events or distributions on our common stock, as described in the Indenture; (4) if we call (or are deemed to have called) any Convertible Notes for redemption; and (5) at any time from, and including, August 1, 2029, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity

50

date. We have the right to elect to settle conversions either in cash, shares of common stock, or in a combination of cash and shares of its common stock.

Prior to February 5, 2028, the Convertible Notes will not be redeemable. On or after February 5, 2028 until the 40th scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date, we may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Convertible Notes (subject to the partial redemption limitation set forth in the Indenture), at our option, if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption. In addition, calling any Convertible Note for redemption will constitute a “Make-Whole Fundamental Change” (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to that Convertible Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that Convertible Note will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.

Operating and Capital Expenditure Requirements

We require cash to pay our operating expenses, make capital expenditures, and pay our long-term liabilities. Since our inception, we have funded our operations through public offerings and private placements of equity securities, short-term and long-term borrowings, and funds generated from our operations.

We recognized operating income of $67.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, $52.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, and $36.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. We expect to fund any increased costs and expenditures from our existing cash and cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities, though our future capital requirements depend on numerous factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

revenues generated by sales of our products and services;

costs associated with expanding our manufacturing, marketing, sales, and distribution efforts;

payments associated with potential future quarterly cash dividends to our common stockholders;

payments associated with income and other taxes;

future acquisition-related payments;

costs associated with our initiatives to sell direct-to-hospital in new countries;

costs of obtaining and maintaining FDA and other regulatory clearances;

the number, timing, and nature of acquisitions, divestitures, and other strategic transactions, and

potential future share repurchases.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, short-term marketable securities, and the interest we earn on these balances will enable us to fund our operating expenses, capital expenditures requirements, and Convertible Note interest payments for at least twelve months following the filing of this Form 10-K and, together with our anticipated future cash, cash equivalents, and short-term marketable securities, to meet our known long-term cash requirements.

We may need to raise additional funding, which might not be available on desirable terms or at all. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Dividends

In February 2011, our Board of Directors approved a policy for the payment of quarterly cash dividends on our common stock.

The dividend activity for the periods presented is as follows:

Record Date Payment Date Per ShareAmount DividendPayment

(in thousands)

On February 19, 2026, our Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.25 per share payable on March 26, 2026, to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 12, 2026.

Purchase Commitments

As part of the Company’s normal course of business, the Company has commitments to purchase approximately $9.1 million of inventory through 2026. These purchases are to be used in the normal course of business and do not represent excess commitments or loss contracts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect

53

the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, net sales, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our estimates, using authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making estimates. We have described our significant accounting policies in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K.

We believe the following critical accounting policies involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and judgments that are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We base our judgments and estimates on historical experience, current conditions and other reasonable factors. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is generated from the sale of medical devices and human tissue cryopreservation services. We recognize revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those devices and services when control is transferred to customers. We account for revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. Significant judgments and estimates involved in our recognition of revenue include the estimation of a provision for returns. We estimate the provision for sales returns and allowances using the expected value method based on historical experience and other factors that we believe could impact our expected returns, including defective or damaged products and invoice adjustments.

Inventory and Other Deferred Costs

Inventory and other deferred costs consists of finished products, work-in-process, raw materials, and costs deferred in connection with human tissue cryopreservation services of our RestoreFlow allograft business. We value inventory and other deferred costs at the lower of cost or market value. Cost includes materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead and is determined using the first-in, first-out, or FIFO, method. On a quarterly basis, we review inventory quantities on hand and analyze the provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on product expiration date and our estimated sales forecast, which is based on sales history and anticipated future demand. Our estimates of future product demand may not be accurate, and we may understate or overstate the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. Accordingly, any significant unanticipated changes in demand could have a significant impact on the value of our inventory and results of operations.

Valuation of Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships, purchased developed technology, trademarks, licenses, and non-compete provisions, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill represents the amount of consideration paid in connection with business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We generally calculate the fair value of our intangible assets as the present value of estimated future cash flows we expect to generate from the asset using a risk-adjusted discount rate. In determining our estimated future cash flows associated with our intangible assets, we use estimates and assumptions about future revenue contributions, cost structures, and remaining useful lives of the asset. These estimates and assumptions require significant judgment, and actual results may differ from assumed or estimated amounts.

Share-Based Compensation

We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based awards granted to employees and directors, including stock options, restricted stock units, and performance-based restricted stock units. Determining the amount of share-based compensation expense requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions that involve judgment and inherently carry uncertainty.

54

The fair value of stock option awards is estimated on the grant date using valuation techniques such as the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model requires us to make several key assumptions, including expected volatility, expected term of the award, risk-free interest rates, expected dividend yield, and expected forfeitures. Because these inputs involve estimates of future trends and events, changes in any of these assumptions could materially affect the amount of share-based compensation expense recognized in our consolidated financial statements. Assumptions are based on historical data, benchmarks, and management's expectations of future performance and employee exercise behavior.

For restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units, fair value is measured based on the market price of our common stock on the grant date. Performance-based awards require additional judgment because expense recognition depends on the probability of achieving specified performance conditions. We reassess these probabilities at each reporting date, and changes in estimated achievement levels can result in significant adjustments to share-based compensation expense.

We account for forfeitures as they occur. If actual forfeiture rates differ materially from our expectations, share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from period to period. Because share-based compensation awards typically vest over several years and depend on both market conditions and employee behavior, the related expense recognized in any given period may not directly correlate with the value ultimately realized by award recipients. Management believes the estimates and assumptions used are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates and could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition.

Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we are subject to proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims and assessments for matters related to, among other things, business acquisitions, employment, commercial matters, intellectual property matters, product liability, and product recalls. We assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves required, if any, for these contingencies is made after careful analysis of each individual issue. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with these matters. We record charges for the costs we anticipate incurring in connection with litigation and claims against us when we determine a loss is probable and we can reasonably estimate these costs. We maintain insurance coverage for certain legal claims and liabilities; however, such coverage is subject to limits, deductibles, exclusions, and insurer interpretation. In connection with certain legal matters, the Company has asserted or may assert claims for recovery under applicable insurance policies.

In connection with certain of our acquisitions, we may enter into agreements to pay additional future consideration upon the satisfaction of certain agreed-upon criteria. We record liabilities for these arrangements at estimated fair value reflecting management’s assumptions of the likelihood of achieving the specified criteria at the time of the closing, which may require significant judgment. These amounts are remeasured each reporting period, with any adjustments recorded in income from operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for additional information regarding recent accounting pronouncements, including the respective expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risks, which include potential losses arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign exchange fluctuations and changes in interest rates.

55

Foreign Currency Risk

We transact sales in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, particularly the Euro, Canadian Dollar, British Pound, Japanese Yen, and Australian Dollar. Approximately 43% of our sales in fiscal year 2025 were denominated in foreign currencies. In addition, a significant portion of our operating costs incurred outside the United States are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We conduct business on a worldwide basis and as a result, a portion of our revenue, earnings, net assets, and net investments in foreign affiliates is exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We measure our net exposure for cash balance positions and for cash inflows and outflows in order to evaluate the need to mitigate our foreign exchange risk. We may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the impact related to unfavorable exchange rate movements, although we did not do so during 2025 or 2024.

Interest Rate Risk

We invest our cash and cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities primarily in bank deposits, corporate debt securities, U.S. government agency securities, money market investments, and a short-duration bond equity fund. Although we believe we have invested in a conservative manner, with principal preservation being the primary investment objective, the value of the securities held will fluctuate with changes in financial markets including, among other things, changes in interest rates, credit quality, and general volatility. This risk is managed by investing in high quality investment grade securities to maintain liquidity and preserve principal without significantly increasing risk.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk consist of investments in corporate bonds. We maintain deposit accounts in federally insured financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. Cash held in financial institutions in foreign countries is not significant. Although these depository accounts may exceed government insured depository limits, we have evaluated the credit worthiness of these applicable financial institutions and determined the risk of material financial loss due to the exposure of such credit risk to be remote.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The consolidated financial statements and supplementary data required by Part II, Item 8 are included in Part IV of this report and indexed under Item 15 (a) (1) and (2) of this report, and are incorporated by reference into this Item 8.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (the Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (the Principal Accounting and Financial Officer), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13(a) – 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, we concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms and rules, and the material information relating to the Company is accumulated

56

and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that control objectives are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company will be detected. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by individuals, by collusion of two or more people or by management override. Over time, controls can become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance may deteriorate. Further, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in any cost-effective control system, misstatements due to errors or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In February 2024, we began implementing a new ERP system. The ERP implementation requires the integration of new ERP software with multiple new data flows and business processes. The new ERP is designed to accurately maintain our books and records and provide information to our management teams which is important to the operations of the business. As the phased implementation of the new ERP system progresses, we expect to continue to change certain processes and procedures which, in turn, are expected to result in changes to our internal control over financial reporting. As such changes occur, we will evaluate quarterly whether such changes materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Other than the new ERP system implementation, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. No matter how well designed, because of inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements should they occur. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the control procedures may deteriorate. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on such assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

LeMaitre Vascular, Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated February 26, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Basis for opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matters

The critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of the Business

Unless the context requires otherwise, references to LeMaitre, LeMaitre Vascular, and the Company refer to LeMaitre Vascular, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Company develops, manufactures, and markets medical devices and implants used primarily in the field of vascular surgery. The Company also derives revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. The Company operates in a single segment in which its principal product lines include the following: anastomotic clips, biologic vascular and dialysis grafts, biologic vascular and cardiac patches, carotid shunts, embolectomy catheters, occlusion catheters, radiopaque marking tape, synthetic vascular and dialysis grafts, and valvulotomes.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are bank deposits and liquid investments with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held in the Company's operating bank accounts. These amounts are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Credit risk related to cash and cash equivalents are limited based on the creditworthiness of the financial institutions at which these funds are held. The Company maintains cash balances in several banks. Accounts located in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. Certain account balances exceed the FDIC limit. Cash balances held outside the United States totaled approximately $10.2 million as of December 31, 2025.

Investments

The components of the Company's investments include debt investments, equity investments, and money market investments and are classified as short-term marketable securities. Debt investments are investments with original maturities of greater than three months and primarily include corporate debt securities, U.S. government agency securities, and asset-backed securities that are designated as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at estimated fair value. The Company views its available-for-sale portfolio as available for use in its current operations. Unrealized gains and losses derived by changes in the estimated fair value of available-for-sale securities are recorded in “Unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities” on the Company's consolidated statements of comprehensive income. Realized gains (losses) from the sale of available-for-sale investments, if any, are determined on a specific identification method, and are recorded in “Investment income” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The costs of securities sold are based on the specific identification method, if applicable. The Company reported the amortization of any premium and accretion of any discount resulting from the purchase of debt securities as a component of investment income.

The Company also reviews its available-for-sale securities on a regular basis to evaluate whether any security in an unrealized loss position has expected credit loss by considering factors such as historical experience, market data, issuer-specific

75

factors, and current economic conditions. Expected credit losses, if any, are recorded in “Other income (loss), net” on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Equity investments include a short duration bond equity fund and a managed income equity fund that are measured at fair value for each reporting period. The managed income equity fund was liquidated in December 2024. Unrealized gains and losses derived by changes in the fair value are recorded in "Other income (loss), net" on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The unrealized gain related to equity securities still held at December 31, 2025 was $0.5 million. Realized gains and losses are recorded in "Investment income" on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

Finally, the Company invests in money market securities with maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase held outside of its operating bank accounts. Realized gains from money market securities are recorded in "Investment income" on the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Additionally, for any investments that distribute a dividend that is reinvested, the dividend gain is recorded in "Investment income" on the Company's consolidated statement of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is derived primarily from the sale of disposable or implantable devices used during vascular surgery. The Company sells primarily directly to hospitals and to a lesser extent to international distributors. The Company also derives revenues from the processing and cryopreservation of human tissues for implantation in patients. The Company recognizes revenue when control of promised devices and services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those devices and services. Revenue is recognized at a point in time upon shipment or delivery of products under the provisions of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).

Revenue is recognized when or as a company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to a customer (which is when the customer obtains control of that good or service). In instances in which shipping and handling activities are performed after a customer takes control of the goods (such as when title passes upon shipment from the Company's dock), the Company made the policy election allowed under Topic 606 to account for these activities as fulfillment costs and not as performance obligations.

The Company generally references customer purchase orders to determine the existence of a contract. Orders that are not accompanied by a purchase order are confirmed with the customer either in writing or verbally. The purchase orders or similar correspondence, once accepted, identify the performance obligations as well as the transaction price, and otherwise outline the rights and obligations of each party. The Company allocates the transaction price of each contract among the performance obligations in accordance with the pricing of each item specified on the purchase order, which is in turn based on standalone selling prices per the Company’s published price lists. In cases where the Company discounts products or provides certain items free of charge, the Company allocates the discount proportionately to all performance obligations, unless the Company can demonstrate that the discount should be allocated entirely to one or more, but not all, of the performance obligations.

The Company records revenue, net of allowances for returns and discounts, fees paid to group purchasing organizations, and any sales and value added taxes required to be invoiced, which the Company has elected to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price as allowed by the standard, at the time of shipment (taking into consideration contractual shipping terms), or in the case of consigned inventory, when it is consumed. Shipment is the point at which control of the product and title passes to the Company’s customers and the Company has a present right to receive payment for the goods.

76

Below is a disaggregation of the Company’s revenue by major geographic area, which is among the primary categorizations used by management in evaluating financial performance, for the periods indicated (in thousands):

Year ended December 31,

The Company does not carry any contract assets or contract liabilities, as there are generally no unbilled amounts due from customers under contracts for which the Company has partially satisfied performance obligations, or amounts received from customers for which the Company has not satisfied performance obligations. The Company satisfies its performance obligations under revenue contracts within a short time period from receipt of the orders, and payments from customers are typically received within 30 to 60 days of fulfillment of the orders, except in certain geographies such as Italy, Spain, and France, where the payment cycle is customarily longer, but less than 12 months. Accordingly, there is no significant financing component to the Company’s revenue contracts. Additionally, the Company has elected as a policy that incremental costs (such as commissions) incurred to obtain contracts are expensed as incurred, due to the short-term nature of the contracts.

Customers returning products may be entitled to full or partial credit based on the condition and timing of the return. To be accepted, a returned product must be unopened (if sterile), unadulterated, and undamaged, must have at least 18 months remaining prior to its expiration date, or 12 months for the Company’s hospital customers in Europe, and generally be returned within 30 days of shipment. These return policies apply to sales to both hospitals and distributors. The amount of products returned to the Company, either for exchange or credit, has not been material. Nevertheless, the Company provides for an allowance for future sales returns based on the percentage of 12 months historical returns applied against the Company’s recognized period sales, which requires judgment. The Company’s cost of replacing defective products has not been material and is accounted for at the time of replacement.

Sales Returns and Allowances

The Company maintains a provision for potential returns of defective or damaged products, and invoice adjustments. The Company adjusts the provision using the expected value method based on historical experiences. Increases to the provision reduce revenue and accounts receivable.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company’s accounts receivable are with customers based in the United States and internationally. Accounts receivable generally are due within 30 to 60 days of invoice and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for credit losses and sales returns, other than in certain European markets where the payment cycle is customarily longer. Opening balance accounts receivable at January 1, 2024 was $25.1 million. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the current creditworthiness of the customers, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors aging reports, collections, and payments from customers, and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues the Company identifies.

The Company closely monitors outstanding receivables for potential collection risks, including those that may arise from economic conditions, in both the United States and international economies. The Company’s European sales to government-owned or supported customers such as hospitals, distributors and agents, particularly in Italy, Spain, and France, may be subject to significant payment delays due to government austerity measures impacting funding and payment practices. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s receivables in Italy, Spain, and France totaled $1.5 million, $1.2 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Receivables balances with certain government-owned hospitals and government-supported customers in these countries can

77

accumulate over a period of time and then subsequently be settled as lump sum payments. While the Company believes its allowance for credit losses in these countries is adequate as of December 31, 2025, if significant changes were to occur in the payment practices of these European governments or if government funding becomes unavailable, the Company may not be able to collect on receivables due to it from these customers and the Company’s write offs of uncollectible amounts may increase.

The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible. Such credit losses have historically been within the Company’s expectations and allowances. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company reviews its allowance for credit losses on a monthly basis and examines all past due balances individually for collectability. The Company records the provision for the allowance for credit losses in general and administrative expenses. The following is a summary of the Company’s allowance for credit losses and sales returns:

Allowance for credit losses and sales returns:

Inventory and Other Deferred Costs

Inventory and other deferred costs consists of finished products, work-in-process, raw materials and costs deferred in connection with human tissue cryopreservation services of the Company’s RestoreFlow allograft business. The Company values inventory and other deferred costs at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) and net realizable value. Inventory costs include direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews inventory quantities on hand and analyzes the provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on product expiration dating and the Company’s estimated sales forecast, which is based on sales history and anticipated future demand. The Company’s estimates of future product demand may not be accurate, and the Company may understate or overstate the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. Accordingly, any significant unanticipated changes in demand could have a significant impact on the value of the Company’s inventory and results of operations.

Cloud Computing Arrangements

The Company enters into cloud computing arrangements to support its ERP system. Under ASC 350-40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, the Company evaluates each arrangement to determine whether (i) the Company has the contractual right to take possession of the software without significant penalty, and (ii) it is feasible for the Company to run the software on its own or a third-party infrastructure. Since the Company's hosting arrangements do not convey such rights, they are accounted as service contracts.

The Company capitalizes qualifying set-up and implementation costs related to the Company’s cloud computing arrangements. The deferred costs are amortized over the term of the associated cloud computing arrangement on a straight-line basis which is representative of the pattern in which the Company expects to benefit from access to the cloud computing arrangement.

78

The Company includes capitalized cloud computing implementation costs in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. The following is a summary of the Company’s capitalized cloud computing arrangements:

As of December 31,

(in thousands)

Cloud computing arrangements, beginning balance $ 4,747 $ 3,619

Cloud computing arrangements, ending balance $ 4,649 $ 4,747

Property and Equipment

The Company states property and equipment at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using straight-line method as follows:

Description Useful Life (in years)

Computer hardware and software 3 – 5

Furniture, fixtures and office equipment 5 – 7

Machinery and equipment 3 – 10

When assets are retired or disposed, the Company eliminates the asset’s original cost and related accumulated depreciation from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations. The Company charges maintenance and repairs to operations as incurred.

Contingent Consideration

The Company recognizes contingent consideration for acquisitions at the date of acquisition, based on the fair value at that date, and then remeasured each reporting period, which may result in adjustments to net income.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the amount of consideration paid in connection with business acquisitions in excess of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment are present or changes in circumstances suggest that an impairment may exist. The Company performs the annual impairment test on the carrying value of goodwill based on the reporting unit annually on December 31. The Company performs an assessment of qualitative factors to determine if it is “more likely than not” that the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is less than its carrying value as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. The “more likely than not” threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. The quantitative goodwill impairment test compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company has determined that no goodwill impairment charges were required for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, or 2023.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships, purchased developed technology, trademarks, licenses, and non-compete provisions, and are amortized over their estimated useful lives. We generally calculate the fair value of our

79

intangible assets as the present value of estimated future cash flows we expect to generate from the asset using a risk-adjusted discount rate. In determining our estimated future cash flows associated with our intangible assets, we use estimates and assumptions about future revenue contributions, cost structures, and remaining useful lives of the asset. These estimates and assumptions require significant judgment, and actual results may differ from assumed or estimated amounts.

Long-lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets (primarily property and equipment, intangible assets, and right-of-use assets) subject to depreciation or amortization to determine if any adverse conditions exist or a change in circumstances has occurred that would indicate impairment or a change in the remaining useful life. Conditions that may indicate impairment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in legal factors or business climate that could affect the value of an asset, a product recall, or an adverse action or assessment by a regulator. If an impairment indicator exists, the Company tests the long-lived asset for recoverability. The Company records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of those assets. The Company measures impairment based on the fair market value of the affected asset using discounted cash flows.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at contract inception by assessing whether the arrangement contains an identified asset and whether the lessee has the right to control such asset. The Company is required to classify leases as either finance or operating leases and to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term greater than 12 months regardless of the lease classification.

The lease classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest rate method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company determines the initial classification and measurement of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date and thereafter, if modified.

For its operating leases with a lease term of 12 months or greater, the Company recognized a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on its consolidated balance sheets. The lease liability is determined as the present value of future lease payments using an estimated rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow equivalent funds on a collateralized basis at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset is based on the liability adjusted for any prepaid or deferred rent. The lease term at the commencement date is determined by considering whether renewal options and termination options are reasonably assured of exercise.

Operating lease cost for the operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is included in operating expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The Company elected the practical expedients to exclude from its balance sheets recognition of leases having a term of 12 months or less (short-term leases).

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The provision for income taxes includes taxes currently payable and deferred taxes resulting from the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company maintains valuation allowances where it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Changes in the valuation allowances are included in the Company's tax provision in the period of change. In determining whether a valuation allowance is warranted, the Company evaluates factors such as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carry-back and carry-forward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of the realization of a deferred tax asset.

80

The Company recognizes, measures, presents, and discloses in its financial statements, uncertain tax positions that it has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured by the Company based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company’s policy is to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

Research and Development Expense

The Company expenses research and development costs, principally compensation and related expenses, outside services, professional fees, testing, and supplies, as incurred.

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred and includes them as a component of sales and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs are as follows:

Year ended December 31,

(in thousands)

Stock-based Compensation

The Company recognizes as expense the estimated fair value of stock options to employees determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company records share-based compensation charges across the consolidated statement of operations based upon the grantee’s primary function. The Company has elected to recognize the compensation cost of all share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award. Reversal of expense for forfeited awards due to the termination of an employee are recognized in the period of termination. In periods that the Company grants stock options, fair value assumptions are based on volatility, interest, dividend yield, and expected term over which the stock options will be outstanding. The computation of expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company bases the interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the award on the U.S. Treasury risk-free interest rate in effect at the time of grant. Historical data on exercise patterns is the basis for estimating the expected life of an option. The Company calculates the expected annual dividend rate by dividing the Company’s annual dividend, based on the most recent quarterly dividend rate, by the closing price of the Common Stock on the grant date.

The Company also issues restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs) as additional forms of equity compensation to its employees, officers, and directors, pursuant to its stockholder-approved 2006 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (as subsequently amended and restated, the “2006 Stock Incentive Plan”). RSUs entitle the grantee to an issuance of stock at no cost to the grantee and generally vest over a period of time determined by the Company’s Board of Directors at the time of grant. PSUs granted are based on achievement of the Company’s operating income compared to budgeted operating income as approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company determines the fair market value of the award based on the number of RSUs and PSUs granted and the market value of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The Company amortizes the fair market value of the award to expense over the period of vesting. Unvested RSUs and PSUs are forfeited and canceled as of the date that employment or service to the Company terminates. RSUs and PSUs are settled in shares of the Company’s common stock upon vesting. The Company typically repurchases common stock upon its employees’ vesting in RSUs and PSUs in order to cover any minimum tax withholding liability as a result of the awards having vested.

81

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its accounting estimates or adjustments to the carrying value of its assets and liabilities. The Company’s estimates and assumptions, including those related to credit losses, inventories, intangible assets, sales returns and discounts, share-based compensation, and income taxes, are reviewed on an ongoing basis and updated as appropriate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Valuation of Business Combinations

The Company assigns the value of the consideration transferred to acquire a business to the tangible assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their fair values at the date of acquisition. The Company assesses the fair value of assets, including intangible assets, using a variety of methods. The Company typically engages an independent appraiser to perform the assessment, so as to measure fair value from the perspective of a market participant.

The Company has accounted for acquisitions using the acquisition method, and the acquired companies’ results have been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition. The Company has recorded acquisition transaction costs in general and administrative expenses and expensed such costs as incurred. The Company bases allocation of the purchase price for acquisitions on estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired, subject to adjustment upon finalization of the purchase price allocation.

The Company’s acquisitions have historically been made at prices above the fair value of the acquired assets, resulting in goodwill due to expectations of synergies of combining the businesses. These synergies include use of the Company’s existing commercial infrastructure to expand sales of the acquired businesses’ products, use of the commercial infrastructure of the acquired businesses to cost-effectively expand sales of the Company’s products, and the elimination of redundant facilities, functions, and staffing.

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims and assessments for matters related to, among other things, patent infringement, business acquisitions, employment, commercial matters and product recalls. The Company assesses the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as potential ranges of probable losses. The Company makes a determination of the amount of reserves required, if any, for these contingencies after careful analysis of each individual issue. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments or changes in approach, such as a change in settlement strategy in dealing with each matter. The Company records charges for anticipated losses in connection with litigation and claims against it when the Company concludes a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company expenses legal costs associated with loss contingencies as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company was not subject to any material litigation or claims and assessments.

Restructuring

The Company records restructuring expenses incurred in connection with consolidation or relocation of operations, exited business lines, reductions in force, or distributor terminations. The Company bases these restructuring expenses, which reflect the Company’s commitment to a termination or exit plan, on estimates of the expected costs associated with site closure, legal matters, contract terminations, severance payments, or other costs directly related to the restructuring. If the actual cost incurred exceeds the estimated cost, an additional expense to earnings will result. If the actual cost is less than the estimated cost, the Company will recognize a credit to earnings.

82

On June 30, 2022, we ceased operations at our St. Etienne, France factory. The closure resulted in restructuring expenses of $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. These expenses consisted primarily of employment termination costs, impairment of fixed assets and inventory, and third party costs. For the year ended December 31, 2023, we recorded additional restructuring expenses of $0.5 million related to the closure. The additional expenses consisted primarily of employment termination, settlement, legal, and other third party costs. There were no restructuring expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Convertible Debt

The Company applies the provisions of ASU 2020-06, which simplify the accounting related to convertible debt instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Accordingly, the Company does not bifurcate the liability and equity components of the convertible debt on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s convertible debt is reflected as a liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, with the initial carrying amount equal to the principal amount of the debt, net of issuance costs. The issuance costs are treated as a debt discount for accounting purposes, which will be amortized into interest expense over the term of the instruments utilizing the effective interest method. The Company accounts for its convertible debt as a single liability with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features.

Employee Retention Credit

On March 27, 2020, the U.S. government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). One provision within the CARES Act provided an Employee Retention Credit (“ERC”), which allows for employers to claim a refundable tax credit against the employer share of Social Security tax equal to 50% of the qualified wages paid to employees from March 13, 2020 through December 31, 2020. The ERC was subsequently expanded in 2021 for employers to claim a refundable tax credit for 70% of the qualified wages paid to employees from January 1, 2021 through September 30, 2021. In April 2025, the Company filed amended Forms 941-X to claim the expanded ERC totaling $6.3 million of credits for filing periods beginning January 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021.

The Company accounted for the ERC by analogy to International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 20, Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance which permits the recording and presentation of either the gross amount as other income or the netting of the credit against the related expense. In September 2025, the Company received ERC refunds for the claims filed for the periods January 1, 2021, through June 30, 2021, totaling $4.8 million. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a gross benefit of $4.8 million, which represented $4.1 million claimed as a refund and $0.7 million in interest income. The ERC was recognized as a reduction in cost of sales and operating expenses and allocated to the financial statement categories from which the payroll taxes were originally incurred. The Company recorded benefits to cost of sales of $2.7 million, sales and marketing expenses of $0.8 million, general and administrative expenses of $0.3 million, and research and development expenses of $0.3 million, and interest income of $0.7 million. Additionally, the Company has accounted for the contingent fee arrangement with its service provider in connection with the filing of the ERC under ASC 450-20, Contingencies. The Company recorded $0.7 million to general and administrative expenses for professional fees related to the tax credit in the consolidated statements of operations during the year ended December 31, 2025.

On July 4, 2025, President Donald Trump signed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) into law, which is considered the enactment date under GAAP. The OBBBA removed the claims filed by any taxpayer after January 31, 2024, for ERC refunds relating to the period July 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021. The Company’s amended Forms 941-X for the period July 1, 2021, through September 30, 2021, were filed with a credit of $2.2 million. The Company believes that there is not reasonable assurance that any receipt of credits will be obtained for this period and therefore has not recognized any amounts related to the ERC in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Net Income Per Share

The Company computes basic net income per common share by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of outstanding stock awards, using the treasury stock method, and outstanding convertible notes, using the if-converted method.

The Company has excluded potential dilutive securities from the computation of diluted earnings per share that would be anti-dilutive to net income per share. The Company excluded the following potential common shares, presented based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders for the periods indicated above because including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

(in thousands)

The Company did not have unrealized losses on debt investments as of December 31, 2024. Unrealized losses from fixed-income securities are primarily attributed to changes in interest rates. Fair values were determined for each individual security in the investment portfolio. When evaluating an investment for expected credit losses, the Company reviews factors such as the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below its cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, changes in market interest rates, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, the investment before recovery of the investment’s cost basis. The Company also regularly reviews its investments in an unrealized loss position and evaluates the current expected credit loss by considering factors such as historical experience, market data, issuer-specific factors, and current economic conditions. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not recognize any expected credit losses. The Company has no current requirement or intent to sell the securities in an unrealized loss position. The Company expects to recover up to (or beyond) the initial cost of investment

The Company had inventory on consignment at customer sites of $1.6 million and $1.8 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In connection with the Company’s RestoreFlow allograft business, other deferred costs include costs incurred for the preservation of human tissues available for shipment, tissues currently in active processing, and tissues held in quarantine pending release to implantable status. By federal law, human tissues cannot be bought or sold. Therefore, the tissues the Company preserves are not held as inventory, and the costs the Company incurs to procure and process vascular tissues are instead accumulated and deferred. These costs include fixed and variable overhead costs associated with the cryopreservation process, including primarily direct labor costs, tissue recovery fees, inbound freight charges, indirect materials, and facilities costs. The Company expenses general and administrative expenses and selling expenses associated with the provision of these services as incurred.

Filing HTML rendered to line-structured narrative text by the shipped reducer (datafeeds.edgar_fulltext.visible_text, keep_table_headers=True): scripts and inline-XBRL headers are dropped, and table content is reduced to its short label cells — numeric table data is not rendered and is therefore not counted. The same rendering is used for every year, so a year-over-year comparison is like for like.

The text is our rendering of the filing, not a facsimile: original pagination, typography and tables are not reproduced, and the numbers live in the financial statements (FA).

The outline locates item HEADINGS in this document. Only Items 1A and 7 have certified boundaries elsewhere in the terminal (the redline and the narrative-overlap number); every span here runs from one heading found to the next heading found.

How the outline was chosen. It is the longest chain of item headings that runs forward through both the document and the standard item order: 23 headings are on that chain and 17 further heading-shaped lines are not — the table-of-contents echo of every item, cross-references and exhibit-list mentions. Each entry's length is measured from its heading to the next heading on the chain.
