You should carefully consider the risks described below, as well as the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including our financial statements and the related notes, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as in other documents that we file with the SEC. The occurrence of any of the events or developments described in this report could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, growth prospects and stock price. In such an event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations and the market price of our common stock.

•

We have a history of operating losses. Investments in advertising, research and development (“R&D”) and clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity could result in a delay in our ability to achieve cash flow breakeven on a quarterly basis.

•

Our direct billing revenues are concentrated with a small number of payers, including the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”). Adverse changes in the reimbursement policies of these payers regarding the MyoPro could have an adverse effect on our business.

•

We may not be able to obtain adequate levels of third-party payer reimbursement, including reimbursement by Medicare, for our products.

•

If CMS amends, restricts, or retracts coverage requirements, its billing contractors and insurers offering Medicare Advantage insurance plans may restrict what they reimburse for the MyoPro, which would have an adverse effect on our business.

•

We currently rely, and in the future will rely, on sales of our MyoPro products for our revenue, and we may not be able to achieve or maintain market acceptance.

•

We depend on a single third-party to manufacture key subassemblies for the MyoPro, and a limited number of third-party suppliers for certain components of the MyoPro.

•

The industries in which we operate are highly competitive and subject to rapid technological change. The publishing of fees for the Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (“HCPCS”), billing codes for our products may attract competition.If our competitors are better able to develop and market products that are safer, more effective, less costly, easier to use, or are otherwise more attractive, we may be unable to compete effectively with other companies.

•

We sell to orthotics and prosthetics providers who are free to market products that compete with the MyoPro, and we rely on these providers to market and promote our products in accordance with their U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or (“FDA”), listings, select appropriate patients and provide adequate follow-on care.

•

The market for myoelectric braces is new and the rate of adoption is uncertain, and important assumptions about the potential market for our products may be inaccurate.

•

Defects in our products or the software that drives them could adversely affect the results of our operations.

•

We are subject to extensive governmental regulations relating to the design, development, manufacturing, labeling and marketing of our products, and a failure to comply with such regulations could lead to withdrawal or recall of our products from the market.

Item 1.Business

Overview

We are a wearable medical robotics company that offers functional improvement for those with neuromuscular disorders and upper limb paralysis. We develop and market the MyoPro product line. A MyoPro is a myoelectric-controlled upper limb brace, or orthosis. The orthosis is a rigid brace used for the purpose of supporting a patient’s weak or paralyzed arm to enable and help improve functional activities of daily living, or ADLs, in the home and community. It is custom-fabricated by trained professionals during a custom fabrication process for each individual user to meet their specific needs. Our products are designed to help improve function in adults and adolescents with neuromuscular conditions due to brachial plexus injury, stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury and other neurological disorders. We primarily provide devices directly to patients and bill their insurance companies directly, a sales channel we refer to as direct billing. Under direct billing, we evaluate, measure and fit the MyoPro devices using our own clinical staff or as circumstances dictate, utilize the clinical consulting services of orthotics and prosthetics, or O&P, professionals, for which they are paid a fee. We also sell our products through various other sales channels, including through O&P providers, which we expect to be a larger contributor to revenue in the future, the Veterans Administration, or VA, and to certain accounts and geographic markets outside the United States. We operate as one business segment.

Our goal is to address the need to help regain function to individuals who have suffered partial paralysis and can no longer support or move their arm or hand despite the best efforts of surgeons and rehabilitation therapists.

Our solution, the MyoPro custom fabricated limb orthosis, is for the upper limbs. The concept was originally pioneered in the 1960s, refined in the labs of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or MIT, and made commercially feasible through our efforts. Partial paralysis is severe muscle weakness or loss of voluntary movement in one or more parts of the body. The MyoPro is listed in the United States with the FDA as a Class II (510(k)-exempt) device (Biofeedback Device). We believe it is the only device commercially available in the United States that is able to help neuromuscular-impaired people who have been through therapy and have been left with partial paralysis regain function in weak arms and hands using their own muscle signals. The device consists of a portable arm brace made of a lightweight metal and includes advanced signal processing software, non-invasive sensors, small motors, a lightweight battery unit, and 3D printed materials which are unique for each patient's arm and hand measurements. The product is worn to support the arm and hand and as a functional aid for reaching and grasping and has also been shown to have therapeutic benefits for some users to increase motor control.

The MyoPro’s control technology utilizes an advanced human-machine interface based on non-invasive, patented electromyography, or EMG, control technology that continuously monitors and senses, but does not stimulate, the affected muscles. The patient self-initiates movement through his or her weakened muscle signals that indicate the intention to move. In addition to supporting the weakened limb, the MyoPro functions as a neuro-muscular orthotic by helping regain function to the impaired limb similarly to a myoelectric prosthetic for an amputee. It is prescribed by physicians and provided by trained clinical professionals as a custom-fabricated myoelectric elbow-wrist-hand orthosis.

In addition to stroke patients, we believe our technology may be used on medically appropriate patients to improve upper extremity movement in patients with peripheral nerve injury, spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain injury, and other neurological disorders, depending on the individual patient’s condition.

Our strategy is to establish ourselves as the market leader in myoelectric limb orthotics, and to build a set of products, software applications, and value-added services based upon our patented technology platform, sized for adults, adolescents and children. We expect to introduce the MyoPro3, which will include further improvements over the MyoPro2+, and our MyoPal device for pediatric use at a future date.

The addressable market in the United States for products directed at all individuals with upper extremity paralysis, such as our MyoPro, is based on an estimated prevalence of 1% of the population, which is the prevalence of people who have suffered a stroke in the U.S., or an estimated 3 million existing cases of upper extremity paralysis. Of that population, we estimate that up to 20% of such individuals may be medically qualified candidates for a MyoPro whose insurance may reimburse for the device, which now includes Medicare Part B beneficiaries. In addition, we

Table of Contents

estimate that approximately 250,000 new patients are added to the prevalence population each year in the United States as a result of strokes, brachial plexus injuries and other afflictions. Though not all these new chronic patients are suitable for a MyoPro, we believe that between 25,000-50,000 of these patients per year could be. According to the National Institutes of Health, it is estimated that nearly 75% of all strokes occur in people aged 65 and over. With the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, reimbursing on a lump sum basis for the MyoPro and Medicare Advantage plans obligated to follow suit, assuming medical necessity is demonstrated, we believe our market opportunity is substantial.

To assess whether an individual is a medically-qualified candidate for a MyoPro, we and our channel partners utilize a variety of techniques to evaluate patients, including tele-health video conference sessions, in-person evaluations, screening days at various locations, and evaluations at clinical facilities where therapists and physicians refer patients for a MyoPro, which requires a physician’s prescription to be reimbursed by insurance. We use various media to educate individuals about the MyoPro solution for their impaired limbs, and we receive referrals from O&P providers and healthcare facilities such as VA Medical Centers.

In many cases, private health insurance companies reimburse providers for the MyoPro device. If we are serving the patient directly, then we bill the payer as the provider. If an O&P provider is responsible for working with and delivering the MyoPro to the patient, then we sell the custom-fabricated MyoPro device to the O&P provider at a wholesale price, to which they add their clinical services. In November 2018, CMS issued two billing codes for the MyoPro, L8701 and L8702. In November 2023, CMS reclassified the MyoPro into the brace benefit category, effective January 1, 2024. Previously, CMS had classified the MyoPro as durable medical equipment, reimbursed on a rental basis. With the classification as a brace, the MyoPro is eligible to be reimbursed on a lump sum basis by CMS similar to other commercial insurance payers. On February 29, 2024, CMS published final payment determinations for the MyoPro Motion W (L8701) and for the MyoPro Motion G (L8702), which became effective April 1, 2024. These fees were subsequently updated to approximately $34,300 for the Motion W and approximately $67,500 for the Motion G, effective January 1, 2025. The fees are subject to an annual inflationary adjustment.

We hold 35 patents in the United States and various countries, which expire at various times from 2027 through 2042, and we have 12 pending patent applications in the United States and international markets. Our intellectual property also consists of trade secrets related to myoelectric control software and mechanical designs from over ten years of R&D and product development activity.

We are headquartered in Burlington, Massachusetts.

Market Opportunity: Common Causes of Arm Paralysis

Stroke

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or the CDC, stroke is one of the leading causes of disability in the United States affecting approximately 800,000 people per year. We have working relationships with rehabilitation facilities in the United States, including the Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Loma Linda University Medical Center, Kennedy Krieger Institute, and numerous VA Medical Centers, and we have developed an appropriate set of inclusion criteria to determine which persons that are affected by stroke would be medically qualified for the intervention.

Many stroke survivors are left with hemiparesis, a partial paralysis of one side of the body, which impacts the ability to use their arm and/or hand. Occupational therapy is the common treatment recommended to regain native function for these individuals, and some do recover some movement of the upper limb. However, after a period of therapy, many patients plateau and continued therapy does not tend to result in significant further improvement. These chronic patients then enter the prevalence population and become potential candidates for the MyoPro, which we believe is the most effective alternative for regaining function for these individuals.

Vehicular and Workplace Accidents

One application for the MyoPro is to support the weak arm and help regain arm function to individuals who have suffered peripheral nerve injuries. A common outcome of vehicular and workplace accidents is damage to the nerves in the shoulder known as the brachial plexus. Many individuals recover from their related trauma with the exception of

Table of Contents

the ability to control their elbow and/or hand. Nerve transfer surgery is often a solution; however, these procedures are not always restorative. In some cases, patients undergo amputation and receive myoelectric prosthetics rather than deal with a paralyzed arm.

Spinal Cord Injuries

According to the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation, spinal cord injuries are second only to strokes as a cause of paralysis, resulting in 27% of cases of paralysis. The level of paralysis depends on where the injury occurs. Currently, medically qualified individuals for a MyoPro include those with incomplete spinal cord injuries having sufficient remaining EMG signal strength to initiate movement of the devices, as determined by the clinician using a MyoPro demonstration unit.

Cerebral Palsy

Based on data provided by the CDC, the prevalence of cerebral palsy, or CP, in the United States is approximately 73,000 for children ages 6-11 years old. CP is caused by brain injury or brain malformation that occurs before, during, or immediately after birth while the infant’s brain is under development.

Birth Brachial Plexus Injuries

During birth, some newborns suffer an injury to the brachial plexus nerve, which can result in arm paralysis. According to Boston Children’s Hospital, one to three births out of 1,000 involve a brachial plexus injury, with roughly 20-30% resulting in arm paralysis. We have been testing our planned pediatric device on children who have suffered this nerve damage to assess its ability to improve function in upper limbs, and this new version of the MyoPro, which we refer to as MyoPal, is expected to be available to these patients in the next one to two years.

Progressive Conditions

The MyoPro has been prescribed in a few cases for individuals with progressive conditions such as multiple sclerosis. For individuals with these conditions, the MyoPro is used for functional improvement that may help provide strength conservation and help to extend the time they can maintain independence. As users continue to progress with their condition, settings can be adjusted to provide increasing amounts of assistance.

Arm Paralysis Solutions & Treatments

The standard of care for treating paralysis varies by diagnosis. In the case of neurological injuries such as stroke, occupational / physical therapy is the standard of care. Each year, stroke and other survivors undergo months of rehabilitation. Unfortunately, many are left with long term hemiparesis, which is weakness on one side of the body. Interventions such as electrical stimulation, static braces, and continued therapy are available, and yet the prevalence of chronic upper limb paralysis is in the millions.

Our Solutions

Although commercial products for powered prosthetics have been available since the 1970s, we believe that powered orthotics have been held back by issues related to weight, comfort, and the technological capability of microprocessors and software. The MyoPro is a custom fabricated limb orthosis. It is created individually for each patient, which is done by using 3D printing techniques for the orthotic components, where the measurements can be obtained either in-person or remotely. Using remote measurement for the orthotic components can reduce the number of in-person visits by our clinical field staff.

Orthotic devices are provided by clinical professionals who fit these devices. According to the American Orthotics and Prosthetics Association, there are more than 2,000 member O&P facilities located in the United States. Additionally, the VA has been a pioneer in O&P. In fact, the design of the MyoPro Motion G powered grasp product is rooted in research conducted at the Boston-area VA in the 1990s. This research demonstrated that it is technically feasible to design a myoelectric elbow-hand orthosis; however, we believe that the product was not commercially practical until we were able to incorporate recent technological developments such as improved microprocessors and software, lightweight materials and motors, and smaller batteries to create an acceptable orthosis for users.

Table of Contents

The MyoPro can enable individuals to self-initiate and control movements of a partially paralyzed or weakened limb using their own muscle signals. When the user tries to move, our patented EMG control system uses sensors to detect the weak muscle signal and to activate a motor to move the limb in the desired direction. The user is in control of their own limb; the brace amplifies their weak muscle signal to regain function to the affected joint. Importantly, the EMG-driven device requires that users are actively engaged throughout the movement; if they stop trying to move, the device stops. With our product, someone who has upper extremity paralysis from a brachial plexus injury, stroke or other neuromuscular disorder can experience improved function in performing ADLs including feeding, reaching and lifting.

Each MyoPro brace is custom fabricated for each patient for optimum fit, mobility and performance. To qualify for a MyoPro, candidates must meet a comprehensive set of requirements determined by a trained clinical professional during an evaluation. These criteria include long term partial paralysis, detection of a muscle signal sufficient to control the device, demonstrated cognitive abilities, and lack of other conditions that might limit the effectiveness or safety of the device such as use of certain pharmaceuticals, high levels of pain, or limits to range of motion, as well as falling within measurement limitations for the arm and hand to be able to fit into the device. Finally, candidates must have meaningful and achievable functional goals that can realistically be accomplished with the device that cannot otherwise be achieved with other interventions.

Should the individual qualify, we (in the case of direct billing) or the O&P provider will determine whether the device may be covered by the individual’s health insurance. If reimbursement is approved and the individual is a suitable candidate for a MyoPro, then the fabrication and fitting process is undertaken:

•

First, we capture the shape of the patient’s arm, using our shape capture kit, which can be completed in-person or remotely. Once the patient’s arm measurements are captured, the orthotic parts are 3D printed by a subcontractor based on these measurements. The fabrication of the brace is completed in-house.

•

Fabrication typically takes approximately 2 weeks. Once the brace is fabricated, it is delivered to the patient either by us, an O&P practice, or a trained professional at a VA hospital, who will fit the device on the patient. During this fitting, the device will be calibrated to the user’s individual muscle signal profile using our proprietary software, and adjustments to the brace can be made to optimize fit.

•

The patient is provided with initial training and a set of take-home tasks to practice with the brace donned. We also provide a video game platform called MyoGames, which offers the patient an additional means to master the device. We or the O&P provider will also refer the MyoPro user to a local therapist for continued training and practice with their new device, and we have a staff of occupational therapists and other qualified clinicians who train and support these therapists. In addition, under our MyoCare program, a coach is assigned to each patient that is provided a device by us, and follows and guides the patient for the first year of the patient’s journey with the MyoPro in order to maximize each patient’s outcomes with the device.

We believe that the use of the MyoPro is compelling since it enables functional improvement that can help users improve their ability to perform ADLs, which may allow them to return to work or improve their ability to be independent and remain at home. According to the CDC, 7% of adults aged 65 and over in the United States require daily help with ADLs. For patients without caregivers, such long term, full-time support services cost approximately $62,400 annually according to The KFF. This approximates the cost to a payer for a MyoPro, which is paid once. With more than 70 million baby boomers now in, or headed into their retirement years, we believe that it is vital to keep beneficiaries in the lowest cost of care setting — the home.

Research and Development

We are committed to investing in a robust product development program and to supporting a variety of clinical research studies to enhance our products, increase the body of evidence to support prescribing and reimbursing our devices, and to grow our range of product offerings. Our R&D team is comprised of engineers with a mix of BS and MS degrees in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, robotics engineering and computer science and augmented by outside resources as needed. The R&D team seeks to combine innovative research conducted over the last 50 years with cutting edge innovations in robotics, machine learning, material science and artificial intelligence to

Table of Contents

continue to enhance our products and product offerings. Our regulatory, clinical, and customer service personnel work closely with our suppliers and providers to promote compliance with quality standards and good manufacturing processes, which we believe result in a high-quality product and limited customer issues.

We have continually enhanced our product offerings by increasing functionality for users by the addition of a multi-articulated wrist and introducing a powered grasp for the hand. Our flagship product is the MyoPro 2, introduced in June 2017, which features improvements in control technology, new configuration software and user interface, and a longer-lasting, pop-out battery for extended use of the brace and convenient replacement. In January 2022, we introduced the MyoPro2+, which is a lighter and more advanced version of the device, which includes 3D printed orthotics capability, software enhancements and a new design that facilitates easier donning and doffing of the device. An update to the MyoPro 2+ is scheduled to be released in the second half of 2025.

We plan, depending on available resources, to continually improve our system architecture and develop new product innovations based on our product roadmap and clinician feedback to increase the value and breadth of our product offerings.

Clinical Research Studies

Evidence of effectiveness involving myoelectric orthotics dates back to 1967. We have partnered with leading researchers to study the impact of the technology to regain function to a paralyzed joint as well as the real-world benefit that comes from being able to independently perform ADLs in the home, vocational tasks at work, and community activities such as shopping. In 2023, a study was published based on data obtained from our internal outcomes patient registry that compared functional task performance while wearing a MyoPro. The results showed that the MyoPro provides stabilizing support to the weak warm of individuals after a stroke and enables individuals to use their impaired arm to complete functional tasks independently in the home environment. An additional study has been completed and published that used a validated outcome measure called Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand, or DASH, to study improvements in the arms of patients that wear a MyoPro. The results showed statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in DASH scores. In addition to this research, several institutions have active funded research programs. In February 2022, researchers with the Cleveland VA published a study showing clinically significant gains in motor function in individuals with chronic moderate-to-sever arm weakness. Currently funded studies include a randomized control trial by the Kessler Foundation, using the MyoPro to study the restoration of upper extremity motor function in people with spinal cord injury, and a recently initiated randomized control trial at the Cleveland VA using the MyoPro for stroke patients using motor learning in therapy and home use. Researchers at the University of Utah published a paper reporting that stroke survivors can achieve proportional EMG control, regardless of their age, time since their stroke, clinical spasticity rate, and history of botulism toxin injections. This work constitutes an important step toward the advancement of more intuitive and dexterous myoelectric upper extremity orthosis which may improve the quality of life.

Sales and Marketing

Our strategic goal is to develop and commercialize products that become the standard of care for individuals with paralysis who cannot be successfully treated with conventional interventions such as rehabilitation therapy. Our strategy is to establish ourselves as a market leader in myoelectric-controlled orthotics by building a set of products, software applications, and value-added services based upon our patented technology platform. With a first-mover advantage in the U.S. and a presence in international markets such as Germany and the United Kingdom, we believe we are well-positioned to meet the large global need that we believe exists for individuals with upper limb paralysis.

To generate awareness and interest in our products, we perform in-services for therapists and physicians, and we directly educate and inform those individuals who are potential candidates for our products. In addition, we utilize digital ads on various platforms as well as television ads. Once the prospective patient contacts us or is referred to us, either our trained clinical staff or a trained O&P provider evaluates the patient for their suitability as a candidate. In instances where we are the provider, the initial clinical screening is often conducted using a telehealth platform. Next, the patient’s medical records are collected and reviewed to make sure the device is appropriate for their condition and a prescription is typically obtained from the patient’s physician in conjunction with a face-to-face visit. Once these documents are obtained and reviewed to ensure our inclusion criteria are met, we will proceed to measure the patient’s arm, manufacture and provide the device to a qualifying Medicare patient. For patients with Medicare Advantage or other commercial insurance, our patient advocacy team submits a pre-authorization request to the patient’s insurer. If we receive a pre-authorization, we will proceed to complete the aforementioned activities resulting in the delivery of a

Table of Contents

MyoPro to the patient. This process is what we refer to as direct billing. We also call on hospitals and O&P practices that provide our products to their patients as well as indirect sales through O&P providers in Europe and Australia. The MyoPro product line has been approved by the VA system for impaired veterans, and more than 130 VA facilities have ordered devices for their patients.

Since we began marketing our products directly to patients in 2019, our business development efforts have focused on developing a pipeline of patients in our reimbursement process and expanding the number of payers reimbursing for our products. As of December 31, 2024, 1,389 patients were in our reimbursement pipeline, a 33% increase compared to 1,042 patients in the pipeline at December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2024, 272 MyoPro units were in backlog, which we define as patients for whom we received insurance authorization, or in the case of Medicare Part B patients, those who have been qualified for delivery through receipt of required medical documentation, but revenue has not been recognized. This represents an 18% increase over 230 patients in backlog at December 31, 2023. The estimated maximum potential revenue value of the backlog is approximately $13.6 million.

To bring the MyoPro to what we believe is the large number of potential patients outside of the United States, in July 2017 we met the criteria to apply the CE mark under the European Union (EU) Medical Devices Directive (93/42/EEC), or EU MDD, which is a manufacturer’s declaration that the product complies with the essential requirements of such legislation, so that the MyoPro can be marketed in the EU. The EU Medical Devices Regulation (EU) No. 2017/745, or the EU MDR, repealed and replaced the EU MDD on May 26, 2021 and we therefore worked with our EU-Authorized Representative to ensure all EU MDR requirements were met, which enabled us to establish a new declaration of conformity under the EU MDR to allow continued CE mark application. In October 2017, we obtained our medical device license for Canada, enabling us to provide the MyoPro to patients in that country. We have entered into agreements with O&P providers in the United Kingdom, Denmark, Germany, Italy and Australia, and have received a number of MyoPro orders from providers outside the United States in 2024, primarily from Germany.

Competition

An individual with difficulty walking has a wide range of technological alternatives from canes and crutches to powered wheelchairs and exoskeleton suits. However, those with paralysis of the arm, wrist, and hand, whose physical challenges that we seek to address, have few options to regain function.

Rehabilitation Therapy

Rehabilitation therapy is the standard of care for upper extremity paralysis and a prerequisite to qualifying for a myoelectric orthosis such as the MyoPro. After a stroke or other traumatic injury, a large portion of survivors regain much or all of their function. However, every year there are many survivors whose upper extremities remain paralyzed despite best efforts of rehabilitation therapists.

Non-Powered Braces

Some individuals are able to accomplish their functional goals with braces that are non-powered or use springs to offset forces of gravity or muscle tightness, referred to as spasticity. Medical professionals who evaluate patients for myoelectric orthotics screen out individuals who could accomplish their goals with a simpler, less costly intervention such as these braces.

Exoskeleton Suits

During the last few years, a number of companies have emerged to provide exoskeleton suits that enable those with lower extremity paralysis to stand and walk again. Companies in this space include Lifeward, Ekso Bionics, and Cyberdyne. It is possible that companies may begin to compete with solutions such as ours for the upper extremity.

Potential New Products from O&P Manufacturers

If our business grows, interest may develop among new or existing manufacturers of other O&P devices that compete with the MyoPro, which may or may not challenge the validity of our intellectual property. Some new products have

Table of Contents

been introduced that compete with the MyoPro from companies such as Neurolutions in the United States and Vincent Systems and HKK in Germany.

Intellectual Property

Our intellectual property efforts have focused on improvements to the patents that we licensed from MIT, which expired in 2023. Myomo has 35 of its own issued patents. These additional patents cover our MyoPro Motion G product. The Motion G product, which allows for the movement of multiple joints as compared to a single joint, which is the technology that underlies the patents previously licensed from MIT. The Motion G generated 98% of our product revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. In January 2013, Myomo’s patent entitled Powered Orthotic Device was granted in Europe (European Patent No. 2079361), which is validated (currently in force) in six European countries. In June 2014, a substantially similar patent was granted in Japan (Japanese Patent No. 5557529). In November 2013 and January 2015, Myomo’s first two U.S. patents were issued entitled Powered Orthotic Device and Method of Using Same (U.S. Pat. Nos. 8,585,620 and 8,926,534, respectively). On July 26, 2016, Myomo’s third U.S. patent was issued (U.S. Pat. No. 9,398,994). In September 2020, Myomo’s fourth U.S. patent was issued entitled Powered Orthotic Device and Method of Using the Same (U.S. Pat No. 10758394B2). In 2023, Myomo was issued two additional U.S. patents, Self Donning Powered Orthotic Device (U.S. Pat No. 11712360) and Powered Orthotic Device and Method of Using Same (U.S. Pat No. 11826275). Similar patents have been issued in China, Hong Kong, and Japan and is validated (currently in force) in six European countries (European Patent No. 3307225). We also have 8 pending U.S. patent applications and 4 foreign applications under examination. We plan to continue to file additional patent applications over time. The longest term of our patents extends intellectual property rights until 2042.

In terms of trademarks, the terms Myomo, MyoPro, MyoPal and MyoCare are registered as trademarks with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office. Our trademarks were initially registered in 2013 and 2014, and we have been making the required filings to maintain our trademarks.

Government Regulation

The MyoPro device and our operations including our supply chain and distribution channels are subject to regulation by the FDA and various other U.S. federal and state agencies. Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or FFDCA, medical devices are classified as Class I, Class II or Class III, depending on the degree of risk associated with the device, what is known about the type of device, and the extent of control needed to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Classification of a device is important because the class to which a device is assigned determines, among other things, the necessity and type of FDA premarket review. We have elected to list the MyoPro Family of products under a Class II device classification regulation for biofeedback devices. Under the classification regulation, we believe our device remains 510(k)-exempt as a battery powered, external limb orthosis device that is indicated for muscle relaxation or muscle re-education are generally 510(k)-exempt under the classification regulation. While we believe our device to be exempt from FDA premarket review, our device is subject to FDA’s post-market requirements, which include compliance with the applicable portions of the FDA’s Quality System Regulation, or QSR, facility registration and product listing, reporting of adverse medical events, and appropriate, truthful and non-misleading labeling, advertising, and promotional materials.

We are also subject to regulation by foreign governmental agencies in connection with international sales. These agencies enforce laws and regulations that govern the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, advertising, marketing and distribution, and market surveillance of our medical device products. In the EU, medical devices are regulated under the Medical Devices Regulation (EU) No. 2017/745, or the EU MDR, which repealed and replaced the previous Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC, or EU MDD, on May 26, 2021.

The EU MDR, among other things:

• strengthens the rules on placing devices on the market (e.g., reclassification of certain devices and

wider scope than the EU MDD) and reinforces surveillance once they are available;

• establishes explicit provisions on manufacturers’ responsibilities for the follow up of the quality,

performance and safety of devices placed on the market;

• establishes explicit provisions on importers’ and distributors’ obligations and responsibilities;

• imposes an obligation to identify a responsible person who is ultimately responsible for all aspects

of compliance with the requirements of the new regulation;

Table of Contents

• improves the traceability of medical devices throughout the supply chain to the end user or patient

through the introduction of a unique identification number, to increase the ability of

manufacturers and regulatory authorities to trace specific devices through the supply chain and to

facilitate the prompt and efficient recall of medical devices that have been found to present a safety

risk; and

• sets up a central database (EUDAMED) to provide patients, healthcare professionals and the

public with comprehensive information on products available in the EU.

Under the EU MDR, all medical devices placed on the market in the EU must meet the relevant general safety and performance requirements laid down in Annex I to the EU MDR, including the requirement that a medical device must be designed and manufactured in such a way that, during normal conditions of use, it is suitable for its intended purpose. In addition, a medical device must be safe and effective and must not compromise the clinical condition or the safety of patients. To demonstrate compliance with such general safety and performance requirements, medical device manufacturers must undergo a conformity assessment procedure, which varies according to the type of medical device and its (risk) classification. Demonstration of conformity with the general safety and performance requirements includes a clinical evaluation. Specifically, a manufacturer must demonstrate that the device achieves its intended performance during normal conditions of use, that the known and foreseeable risks, and any adverse events, are minimized and acceptable when weighed against the benefits of its intended performance, and that any claims made about the performance and safety of the device are supported by suitable evidence. Except for low-risk medical devices (Class I non-sterile, non-measuring devices), where the manufacturer can self-declare the conformity of its products with the general safety and performance requirements (except for any parts which relate to sterility or metrology), a conformity assessment procedure requires the intervention of a notified body. Notified bodies are independent organizations designated by EU member states to assess the conformity of devices before being placed on the market. A notified body would typically audit and examine a product’s technical dossiers and the manufacturers’ quality system. If satisfied that the relevant product conforms to the relevant essential requirements, the notified body issues a certificate of conformity, which the manufacturer uses as a basis for its own declaration of conformity. The manufacturer may then apply the CE mark to the device, which allows the device to be placed on the market throughout the EU.

All manufacturers placing medical devices on the market in the EU must comply with the EU medical device vigilance system which has been reinforced by the EU MDR. Under this system, serious incidents and field safety corrective actions , or FSCAs must be reported to the relevant authorities of the EU member states. These reports will have to be submitted through EUDAMED – once functional – and aim to ensure that, in addition to reporting to the relevant authorities of the EU member states, other actors such as the economic operators in the supply chain will also be informed. Until EUDAMED is fully functional, the corresponding provisions of the EU MDD continue to apply. A serious incident is defined as any incident, which, directly or indirectly, led, might have led or might lead to the death of a patient or user or other person, or to a temporary or permanent serious deterioration of a patient’s, user’s or other person’s state of health, or a serious public health threat. In addition, among the new requirements of the EU MDR, manufacturers (and authorized representatives) must have available within their organization at least one person responsible for regulatory compliance, or PRRC, who possesses the requisite expertise in the field of medical devices. The PRRC is notably responsible for compliance with post-market surveillance and vigilance requirements. The European Commission has adopted various standards applicable to medical devices and there are additionally harmonized standards relating to the design and manufacture of medical devices (such as the international management system standard for medical systems set by the International Organization for Standardization or ISO, ISO13485:2016) which are not mandatory however, if complied with, indicate that the device satisfies the applicable element of the general safety and performance requirements.

The aforementioned EU rules are generally applicable in the European Economic Area, or EEA, which consists of the EU member states plus Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland.

The UK formally left the EU on January 31, 2020. In respect of medical devices, since the end of the Brexit transitional period on January 1, 2021, new regulations require medical devices to be registered with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, or MHRA (the UK medicines and medical devices regulator) before being placed on the Great Britain market. If a manufacturer of a device placed on the market in Great Britain is based outside of the UK, the manufacturer must appoint a UK responsible person with a registered place of business in the UK to act on the manufacturer’s behalf in respect of certain activities (e.g. device registration). CE marks issued by EU notified bodies to place medical devices on the market in the EU will remain valid in the UK up until, at the latest,

Table of Contents

June 30, 2028 (for CE marks issued under the EU MDD) or June 30, 2030 (for CE marks issued under the EU MDR), following which a UK Conformity Assessed, or UKCA, mark will be required to place a device on the Great Britain market. Manufacturers may choose to use the UKCA mark on a voluntary basis prior to such dates. UKCA marking will, however, not be recognized in the EU. The EU regulatory framework on medical devices continues to apply in Northern Ireland under the Windsor Framework and medical devices in Northern Ireland may either carry an EU CE mark or a UK and Northern Ireland CE mark, or CE UK(NI), although devices bearing the CE UK(NI) marking will not be accepted on the EU market.

We, together with Cogmedix, our primary contract manufacturer, actively maintain a quality management system for product design and development, manufacturing, distribution, and customer feedback processes in accordance with FDA’s QSR and ISO 13485:2016. In February 2024, the FDA issued the Quality Management System Regulation Final Rule to amend the QSR, incorporating by reference ISO 13485:2016. The rule will become effective on February 2, 2026. Until then, manufacturers are required by the FDA to comply with the QSR. Following the introduction of a product, the FDA and comparable foreign agencies may engage in periodic audits of our quality management system, the product performance, and our advertising and promotional materials. These regulatory controls, as well as any changes in the policies of the FDA or comparable foreign agencies, can affect the time and cost associated with the development, introduction and continued availability of new products. We work to anticipate these factors in our product development processes.

In addition to our EU authorization as outlined above, we have a Medical Device License for Canada. In addition, Myomo has obtained certification of our Quality System, or QS, to the Medical-Device-Single-Audit-Program, or MDSAP. This certifies compliance of the QS for sales in the United States, Canada, Brazil, Australia, and Japan. If we enter into other jurisdictions with additional international partners, we will need to seek the appropriate government approval to supply the devices in these countries. If we fail to comply with applicable foreign regulatory requirements, we may be subject to various administrative and legal actions against us, such as product recalls, product seizures and other civil and criminal sanctions.

Healthcare and Privacy Laws and Regulation

As an accredited Medicare provider, we are subject to broadly applicable fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations. Manufacturing, sales, promotion and other activities following product approval are also subject to regulation by numerous regulatory authorities in the United States in addition to the FDA, CMS, other divisions of the Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS, such as the Office for Civil Rights or the Office of Inspector General, the Department of Justice, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Federal Trade Commission, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration, the Environmental Protection Agency and state and local governments.

Additionally, healthcare providers and third-party payers play a primary role in the recommendation of medical devices and other medical items and services. Arrangements with providers, consultants, third-party payers and customers are subject to broadly applicable fraud and abuse, anti-kickback, false claims laws, reporting of payments to physicians and teaching hospitals, patient privacy laws and regulations and other healthcare laws and regulations that may constrain our business and/or financial arrangements. Restrictions under applicable federal and state healthcare and privacy laws and regulations, include the following:

•

the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, which makes it illegal for any person, including a medical device manufacturer and DME suppliers (or a party acting on its behalf), to knowingly and willfully solicit, receive, offer or pay any remuneration (including any kickback, bribe or certain rebate), directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly, in cash or in kind, or in return for, that is intended to induce or reward referrals, including the purchase, recommendation, order of a medical device or DME for which payment may be made under a federal healthcare program, such as Medicare or Medicaid. A person or entity need not have actual knowledge of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute or specific intent to violate it in order to have committed a violation. Violations are subject to civil and criminal fines and penalties for each violation, plus imprisonment and exclusion from government healthcare programs. In addition, the government may assert that a claim that includes items or services resulting from a violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute constitutes a false or fraudulent claim for purposes of the federal civil False Claims Act, or FCA. There are a number of statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors protecting some common activities from prosecution;

Table of Contents

•

the federal civil and criminal false claims laws, including the FCA, which prohibit individuals or entities from, among other things, knowingly presenting, or causing to be presented, to the federal government, claims for payment or approval that are false, fictitious or fraudulent; knowingly making, using or causing to be made or used, a false statement or record material to a false or fraudulent claim or obligation to pay or transmit money or property to the federal government; or knowingly concealing or knowingly and improperly avoiding or decreasing an obligation to pay money to the federal government. Manufacturers can be held liable under the FCA even when they do not submit claims directly to government payers if they are deemed to “cause” the submission of false or fraudulent claims. DME companies that submit claims directly to payers may also be liable under the FCA for the direct submission of such claims. The FCA also permits a private individual acting as a “whistleblower” to bring actions on behalf of the federal government alleging violations of the FCA and to share in any monetary recovery. When an entity is determined to have violated the FCA, the government may impose civil fines and penalties for each false claim, plus treble damages, and exclude the entity from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs;

•

the federal civil monetary penalties laws, which impose civil fines for, among other things, the offering or transfer or remuneration to a Medicare or state healthcare program beneficiary if the person knows or should know it is likely to influence the beneficiary’s selection of a particular provider, practitioner, or supplier of services reimbursable by Medicare or a state health care program, unless an exception applies;

•

the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, which created additional federal criminal statutes that prohibit knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program or obtain, by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, any of the money or property owned by, or under the custody or control of, any healthcare benefit program, regardless of the payer (e.g., public or private) and knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up by any trick or device a material fact or making any materially false statements in connection with the delivery of, or payment for, healthcare benefits, items or services relating to healthcare matters. Similar to the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, a person or entity can be found guilty of violating HIPAA without actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate it;

•

HIPAA, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, or HITECH, and their respective implementing regulations, including the Final Omnibus Rule published in January 2013, which impose requirements on certain covered healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses as well as their respective business associates that perform services for them that involve the use, or disclosure of, individually identifiable health information, relating to the privacy, security and transmission of individually identifiable health information. HITECH also created tiers of civil monetary penalties, amended HIPAA to make civil and criminal penalties directly applicable to business associates, and gave state attorneys general new authority to file civil actions for damages or injunctions in federal courts to enforce the federal HIPAA laws and seek attorneys’ fees and costs associated with pursuing federal civil actions;

•

the federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act, created under the ACA, and its implementing regulations, which require manufacturers of drugs, devices, biological and medical supplies for which payment is available under Medicare, Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (with certain exceptions) to report annually to HHS, under the Open Payments Program, information related to payments or other transfers of value made to physicians (defined to include doctors, dentists, optometrists, podiatrists and chiropractors), physician assistants, nurse practitioners, clinical nurse specialists, certified registered nurse anesthetists, and teaching hospitals, as well as ownership and investment interests held by physicians and their immediate family members; and

•

analogous state and foreign law equivalents of each of the above federal laws, such as anti-kickback and false claims laws which may apply to items or services reimbursed by any third-party payer, including commercial insurers or patients; state laws that require device companies to comply with the industry’s voluntary compliance guidelines and the applicable compliance guidance promulgated by the federal government or otherwise restrict payments that may be made to healthcare providers and other potential referral sources; state and local laws that require the licensure of sales representatives; state laws that require device manufacturers to report information related to payments and other transfers of value to physicians and other healthcare providers or marketing expenditures and pricing information; data privacy

Table of Contents

and security laws and regulations in foreign jurisdictions that may be more stringent than those in the United States (such as the European Union, which adopted the General Data Protection Regulation, which became effective in May 2018); state laws governing the privacy and security of health information in certain circumstances, many of which differ from each other in significant ways and may not have the same effect, thus complicating compliance efforts; and state laws related to insurance fraud in the case of claims involving private insurers.

Because of the breadth of these laws and the narrowness of the statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors available, it is possible that some of our business activities could, despite efforts to comply, be subject to challenge under one or more of such laws. Moreover, efforts to ensure that our business arrangements comply with applicable healthcare laws may involve substantial costs. It is possible that governmental and enforcement authorities will conclude that our business practices may not comply with current or future statutes, regulations or case law interpreting applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. If any such actions are instituted against us, and we are not successful in defending ourselves or asserting our rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of significant civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, disgorgement, monetary fines, exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs, integrity and oversight agreements to resolve allegations of non-compliance, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits and future earnings, and curtailment or restructuring of our operations, any of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our results of operations. In addition, the commercialization of any of our products outside the United States will also likely subject us to foreign equivalents of the healthcare laws mentioned above, among other foreign laws.

Health Insurance Reimbursement

In the United States and markets in other countries, patients who are prescribed medical devices for their conditions and providers delivering the prescribed devices generally rely on third-party payers to reimburse all or part of the associated healthcare costs. MyoPro devices are typically reimbursed by the patient’s health insurance plan, which include government health programs in the United States such as Medicare and Medicaid, commercial health insurers and managed care organizations. To obtain approval for reimbursement, payers require various items which may include a physician’s written order, a history of the patient’s medical condition and past treatment, and demonstration of medical necessity. Factors payers consider in determining reimbursement are based on whether the product is: a covered benefit under its health plan; safe, effective, and medically necessary; appropriate for the specific patient; cost effective, and neither experimental nor investigational.

Our Patient Advocacy Team assists patients in developing and submitting this documentation for coverage of the prescribed MyoPro. Since the MyoPro is a relatively new device, payers may not be familiar with the device, and in some cases, payers may deem it to be experimental or investigational and establish non-coverage policies for the device. National and regional commercial plans, worker’s compensation programs, auto insurance carriers, Medicare Advantage plans, and some state Medicaid plans have paid for the MyoPro orthosis on a lump sum basis. Beginning January 1, 2024, CMS reimburses for the MyoPro on a lump sum basis. For payers other than CMS, the reimbursement process usually requires obtaining a pre-authorization for the MyoPro from the patient's insurer, and if the authorization request is initially denied by the payer, we may provide support to the patient, or the O&P provider as the case may be, in appealing the decision. We have been successful in obtaining coverage for the MyoPro on a case by case basis and we continue to follow up on other cases in our reimbursement pipeline which are pending an insurance decision.

As of January 1, 2019, two HCPCS codes for the MyoPro, L8701 and L8702, issued by CMS, went into effect. CMS elected to classify the MyoPro for Medicare beneficiaries as DME to be provided to patients under a capped rental payment system. In November 2023, CMS reclassified the MyoPro billing codes (L8701 and L8702) into the brace benefit category, which makes the MyoPro eligible to be reimbursed on a lump sum, rather than a rental basis. In conjunction with our reclassification into the brace benefit category, on February 29, 2024, CMS published final payment determinations for the MyoPro Motion W (L8701) and for the MyoPro Motion G (L8702) which became effective April 1, 2024. These fees were subsequently updated to approximately $34,300 for the Motion W and approximately $67,500 for the Motion G, effective January 1, 2025. Published fees are subject to annual inflationary adjustments. Currently, the DME MACs are reimbursing claims upon submission and may conduct post-reimbursement audits in the future to determine if claims for medically appropriate patients are being submitted.

Table of Contents

Medicare Advantage insurance plans are obligated to reimburse for the MyoPro, so long as the device is deemed to be medically necessary for their beneficiaries as well as not experimental or investigational. Such determinations by these payers continue to be determined on a case-by-case basis.

Based on the final published fees, our O&P partners, as well as others whom we do not work with today, may find the fees sufficient to cover the cost of the MyoPro device, the clinical services to evaluate and fit patients, and the other support services associated with provisioning of products to patients, which may result in higher sales volume from that channel in 2025 and beyond.

Current and Future Legislation

The United States and many foreign jurisdictions have enacted or proposed legislative and regulatory changes affecting the healthcare system that could affect our ability to profitably sell MyoPro. Changes in regulations, statutes or the interpretation of existing regulations could impact our business in the future by requiring, for example: (i) changes to our manufacturing arrangements; (ii) additions or modifications to product labeling; (iii) the recall or discontinuation of our products; or (iv) additional record-keeping requirements. If any such changes were to be imposed, they could adversely affect the operation of our business.

In the United States, there have been and continue to be a number of legislative initiatives and legal challenges to contain healthcare costs. For example, in March 2010, the ACA was passed, which substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers, and significantly impacted the United States medical device industry to which we sell our products. Among other things, the ACA:

•

established a 2.3% excise tax on sales of medical devices with respect to any entity that manufactures or imports specified medical devices offered for sale in the United States, although this provision was subsequently repealed in December 2019;

•

established a new Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute to oversee, identify priorities in and conduct comparative clinical effectiveness research;

•

implemented payment system reforms, including a national pilot program to encourage hospitals, physicians and other providers to improve the coordination, quality and efficiency of certain health care services through bundled payment models; and

•

created an independent payment advisory board that will submit recommendations to reduce Medicare spending if projected Medicare spending exceeds a specified growth rate.

Since its enactment, there have been numerous judicial, administrative, executive, and legislative challenges to certain aspects of the ACA, and we expect there will be additional challenges and amendments to the ACA in the future. On June 17, 2021, the U.S. Supreme Court dismissed the most recent judicial challenge to the ACA brought by several states without specifically ruling on the constitutionality of the ACA. It is unclear how other healthcare reform measures in Congress or through executive orders, if any, to challenge repeal or replace the ACA, will impact our business.

In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted in the United States since the ACA was enacted. In August 2011, the Budget Control Act of 2011, among other things, resulted in aggregate reductions of Medicare payments to providers of 2% per fiscal year, which went into effect in 2013, and, due to subsequent legislative amendments, will remain in effect until 2032. The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 further reduced Medicare payments to several types of providers, including hospitals and cancer treatment centers, and increased the statute of limitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years.

In response to perceived increases in healthcare costs in recent years, there have been and continue to be proposals by the Presidential administrations, members of Congress, state governments, regulators and third-party payers to control these costs and, more generally, to reform the United States healthcare system, including by repealing or replacing the ACA. Many elements of health care reform such as comparative effectiveness research, payment system reforms including shared savings pilots and other provisions could meaningfully change the way healthcare is developed and

delivered, and may materially adversely impact numerous aspects of our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Manufacturing

Myomo’s custom fabricated orthosis is comprised of two elements. The first is the electromechanical kit. The kit consists of the motor units, processor, sensors, and battery. Manufacturing for the electromechanical kit is provided by our supplier Cogmedix, a wholly owned subsidiary of Coughlin Companies in Worcester, MA. The second element is the custom fabrication of the orthosis itself from measurements obtained either in person or remotely. A third-party, AB Corp, creates the orthotic parts from these measurements and the fabrication of the device is done in our facility in Burlington, Massachusetts.

Coverage for the MyoPro from CMS is expected to increase sales volumes for the MyoPro. In January 2025, we completed the move of our manufacturing operations from Boston to our new headquarters facility in Burlington, MA. We have double the manufacturing floor space compared to our prior facility in Boston, and our available manufacturing space will increase again when we take possession of an additional 7,500 square feet of manufacturing space in June 2025. Our current capacity is 120 units per month, and we have the ability to expand manufacturing capacity in this facility, as demand increases. If the volume and geographic reach of our sales expand further, we may seek additional sources for manufacturing and custom fabrication of the devices as our needs may require, or expand our manufacturing space and capacity.

Employees and Human Capital

As of December 31, 2024, we employed a total of 184 full time employees and 1 part time employee. All employees are subject to contractual agreements that specify requirements for confidentiality, ownership of newly developed intellectual property and restrictions on working for competitors as well as other matters. None of our employees are represented by labor unions or covered by collective bargaining agreements, and we have experienced no work stoppages. We consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

We believe that our future success largely depends upon our continued ability to attract and retain highly skilled employees and personnel. Our plan to increase clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity in 2025 involves the hiring more than 100 additional employees by the end of 2025. Our human capital resources objectives include identifying, recruiting, retaining, incentivizing and integrating our existing and new employees, advisors and consultants. The principal purposes of our equity and cash incentive plans are to attract, retain and reward personnel through the granting of stock-based and cash-based compensation awards, in order to increase stockholder value and the success of our company by motivating such individuals to perform to the best of their abilities and achieve our objectives. We provide our employees with competitive salaries and bonuses, opportunities for equity ownership, support for programs that enable continued learning and growth and an employment package that promotes well-being across all aspects of their lives, including health care, retirement planning and paid time off. We value diversity at all levels and seek to make our workforce as diverse and inclusive as we can and offer advancement opportunities based on merit and performance.

Item 1A.Risk Factors

The following important factors, among others, could cause our actual operating results to differ materially from those indicated or suggested by forward-looking statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or presented elsewhere by management from time to time. Investors should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision. The risks described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe are not material may also significantly impair our business operations. Our business could be harmed by any of these risks. The trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Associated with Our Business

Risks Related to Our Operating and Financial Results

We have a history of operating losses. Investments in advertising, R&D and clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity could result in a delay in our ability to achieve cash flow breakeven on a quarterly basis.

We have a history of losses since inception. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 we incurred net losses of $6.2 million and $8.1 million, respectively. At December 31, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $103.1 million. The extent and duration of future operating and net losses will depend on our ability to increase the number of patients entering our pipeline in a manner that does not significantly increase our advertising cost per pipeline addition, increase revenues to absorb the headcount and additional clinical, reimbursement and manufacturing capacity we expect to add during 2025, the ability of our supply chain to meet our volume requirements without disruption and our ability to compensate for additional R&D spending expected in 2025. However, there can be no assurance that we can cost effectively grow our revenues without requiring additional capital.

Our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash at December 31, 2024 were approximately $25.2 million. On December 6, 2024, we completed a public offering of our common stock, generating net proceeds of approximately $15.8 million. On July 11, 2024, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, a division of First-Citizens Bank & Trust Company (“Silicon Valley Bank”), which provides us the ability to borrow up to $4.0 million against eligible accounts receivable. The line of credit remains undrawn as of the issuance date of these financial statements. Availability under the line of credit is approximately $1.0 million as of December 31, 2024. In February 2025, we entered into an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, provided for a $3 million term loan facility which could be drawn at any time until February 28, 2026. On January 19, 2024, we completed a registered direct offering of our common stock and pre-funded warrants, generating net proceeds of approximately $5.4 million. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash at December 31, 2024 will be sufficient to fund our operations for the twelve months from the date of this report. If we encounter obstacles such as those that have been referred to above, we may not be able to return to operating cash flow breakeven on a quarterly basis, and additional capital may be required.

Our direct billing revenues are concentrated with a small number of payers, including CMS. Adverse changes in the reimbursement policies of these payers regarding the MyoPro could have an adverse effect on our business.

Revenues from providing the MyoPro directly to patients, a sales channel we refer to as direct billing, represented 78% and 71% of product revenues for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. In 2024, we began providing the MyoPro to Medicare Part B patients. Revenues from patients with Medicare Part B represented 63% of direct billing revenues (49% of total revenues) for the year ended December 31, 2024. Our historical focus on patients

Table of Contents

with commercial insurers who have previously reimbursed for the MyoPro also impacts our payer concentration. Beginning in September 2021, a large Medicare Advantage insurer that has historically reimbursed for the MyoPro began denying claims after having granted a pre-authorization and after we delivered the devices to patients, and these post-service denials currently continue. Revenues from patients insured by this payer represented 23% and 54% of direct billing revenues (18% and 35% of total revenue) during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. With a small number of exceptions, appeals filed with the payer have been successful and these claims have ultimately been paid. However, this payer is now providing us with fewer pre-authorizations to serve new patients, requiring additional appeals efforts. This is common with other Medicare Advantage plans as well. If CMS were to change their coverage and reimbursement criteria for the MyoPro, or the aforementioned commercial payer and other Medicare Advantage payers further reduce the number of MyoPro’s that they will authorize for their insured patients, our revenues and cash flows would be negatively impacted, which would have an adverse effect on our business.

We may experience significant fluctuations in our quarterly and annual results.

Fluctuations in our quarterly and annual financial results have resulted and will continue to result from numerous factors, including:

•

timing, number and dollar value of reimbursements of our products by insurance payers;

•

changes in the mix of products we sell;

•

strategic actions by us, such as acquisitions of businesses, products, or technologies;

•

effects of domestic and foreign economic conditions and exchange rates on our industry and/or customers;

•

the divestiture or discontinuation of a product line or other revenue generating activity;

•

the relocation and integration of manufacturing operations and other strategic restructuring;

•

regulatory actions which may necessitate recalls of our products or warning letters that negatively affect the markets for our products;

•

costs incurred by us in connection with the termination of contractual and other relationships, including distributorships;

•

our ability to collect outstanding accounts receivable;

•

the expiration or exhaustion of deferred tax assets such as net operating loss carryforwards;

•

increased product and price competition, due to reimbursement of our products by Medicare, the regulatory landscape, market conditions or other factors;

•

technology changes to enhance individual data privacy that could negatively impact our ability to market our products to prospective candidates and could result in increased advertising costs;

•

market reception of our new or improved product offerings; and

•

the loss of any significant customer.

These factors, some of which are not within our control, may cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. If our quarterly operating results fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, our stock price could drop suddenly and significantly. We believe quarterly comparisons of our financial results are not always meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance.

Continued inflation may materially impact our financial operations or results of operations.

While decreasing recently, inflation has and is expected to remain elevated for the near future. Inflationary factors, such as increases in the cost of our raw materials, manufacturing, interest rates and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. The price and availability of key components used to manufacture our products has been increasing and may continue to fluctuate significantly. In addition, the cost of labor internally or at our third-party manufacturers could increase significantly due to regulation or inflationary pressures. Additionally, the cost of logistics and transportation fluctuates in large part due to the price of oil, and availability can be limited due to

Table of Contents

political and economic issues. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, we may experience some effect in the near future, especially if inflation rates continue to rise.

Significant political, trade, regulatory developments, and other circumstances beyond our control, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

We sell our products in countries throughout the world. Significant political, trade, or regulatory developments in the jurisdictions in which we may sell our products, such as those stemming from the change in U.S. federal administration, are difficult to predict and may have a material adverse effect on us. These developments may include tariffs or changes in reimbursement policies for Medicaid and Medicare. For example, on February 1, 2025, the U.S. imposed a 25% tariff on imports from Canada and Mexico, which were subsequently suspended for a period of one month, and a 10% additional tariff on imports from China. Historically, tariffs have led to increased trade and political tensions. In response to tariffs, other countries have implemented retaliatory tariffs on U.S. goods. While we have not been affected by such developments as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, we cannot provide any assurance that changes in political, trade, regulatory, and economic conditions, including U.S. trade policies, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Risks related to our Reliance on Third Parties

We may not be able to obtain third-party payer reimbursement, including reimbursement by Medicare, for our products.

Sales of our device depend, in part, on the extent to which our products are covered by third-party payers, such as government health programs, commercial insurance and managed healthcare organizations. See section titled “Business Section – Government Regulation – Health Insurance Reimbursement”, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Third-party payers are increasingly challenging the prices charged, examining the medical necessity and creating additional restrictions on coverage, and reviewing the cost-effectiveness of medical products and services and imposing controls to manage costs. Third-party payers may limit coverage to specific products on an approved list, also known as a formulary, which might not include all of the approved products for a particular indication. In addition, CMS may issue local or national coverage determinations which could result in more restrictive coverage for our products. The coverage determination process is often a time-consuming and costly process that requires us to provide scientific and clinical support for the use of our products to each payer separately, with no assurance that coverage and adequate reimbursement will be obtained. In addition, the absence of in-network contracts with Medicare Advantage plans or commercial insurers could result in utilization management for out-of-network patients. Currently, we are almost entirely dependent on third parties to cover the cost of our products to patients and rely on their reimbursement for the cost of our products. If CMS, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (the “VA”) health insurance companies and other third-party payers do not provide adequate coverage or reimbursement for our products, then our sales will be limited to clinical facilities and individuals who can pay for our devices without reimbursement. To our knowledge, from inception through December 31, 2024, fewer than 50 units have been self-paid or funded by non-profit foundations. Some commercial health insurance plans have published statements that they will not cover the cost of the MyoPro for their members. In the event we are unsuccessful in obtaining additional coverage and adequate reimbursement for our products from third-party payers, our sales will be significantly constrained. Currently, reimbursement for the cost of our products is obtained primarily on a case-by-case basis until such time, if any, we obtain broad coverage policies with Medicare and third-party payers. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain these broad coverage policies or that Medicare or its local administrative billing contractors will not establish more restrictive coverage requirements for the MyPro in the future (for example, in the form of a local or national coverage determination). See section titled “Business Section – Government Regulation – Health Insurance Reimbursement”, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In connection with Medicare reimbursement, in November 2023 CMS reclassified the MyoPro from the durable medical equipment benefit to the brace benefit category effective January 1, 2024, thereby allowing for lump sum reimbursement. Such lump sum reimbursements based on the fees posted by CMS, are now being made. CMS published final payment determinations for the MyoPro Motion W (L8701) and the MyoPro Motion G (L8702), effective April 1, 2024. These fees were subsequently updated to approximately $34,300 for the Motion W and

Table of Contents

approximately $67,500 for the Motion G, effective January 1, 2025. The fees are subject to annual inflationary adjustments. Our claims can be reviewed on a case-by-case basis at any time by CMS.

There can be no assurance that the final fees will be sufficient to permit us to generate gross margin required to allow us to operate on a profitable basis. Third-party payers also may continue to deny or limit coverage, limit reimbursement or reduce their levels of payment, or our costs of production may increase faster than increases in reimbursement levels. In addition, we may not obtain coverage and reimbursement approvals in a timely manner. Our failure to operate profitably could negatively impact market acceptance of MyoPro.

Revenues from patients who are covered by Medicare Advantage insurance plans have become a significant portion of our overall revenues. Approximately 25% and 57% of our product revenues were derived from patients with Medicare Advantage insurance plans for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Since CMS published reimbursement amounts for the MyoPro in April 2024, revenues from Medicare Part B patients represented 49% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024. If CMS amends, restricts, or retracts its November 2023 rule classifying MyoPro as a brace, amends or retracts any published fees, or establishes more restrictive inclusion criteria for coverage, our Medicare revenues could be negatively impacted and insurers offering Medicare Advantage insurance plans may no longer cover or adequately reimburse for the MyoPro. As a result, our overall revenues and cash flows would be negatively impacted, which could have an adverse effect on our business. See “Risks Related to our Reliance on Third Parties—We may not be able to obtain third-party payer reimbursement, including reimbursement by Medicare, for our products” for additional information about CMS coverage decisions.

We currently rely, and in the future will rely, on sales of our MyoPro products for our revenue, and we may not be able to expand market acceptance or grow revenues in the orthotics and prosthetics channel.

We currently rely, and in the future will rely, on sales of our MyoPro products for our revenue. MyoPro products are relatively new products, and continuing market acceptance and adoption will depend on educating people with limited upper extremity mobility and healthcare providers as to the distinct features, ease-of-use, improved quality of life and other benefits of MyoPro systems compared to alternative technologies and treatments. Our products may not be perceived to have sufficient potential benefits compared with these alternatives, which include rehabilitation therapy or amputation with a prosthetic replacement. Also, healthcare providers such as orthotics and prosthetics ("O&P") practices and the VA want to see good outcomes for their patients and certainty of third-party reimbursement. Accordingly, healthcare providers may not recommend the MyoPro until there is sufficient evidence to convince them to alter the treatment methods they typically recommend. This evidence may include prominent healthcare providers or other key opinion leaders in the upper extremity paralysis community recommending the MyoPro as effective in providing identifiable immediate and long-term health benefits, and the publication of additional peer-reviewed clinical studies demonstrating its value. Additionally, because the MyoPro is a prescription device, patients require the prescription of a healthcare provider to access our products and to have the device reimbursed by insurance.

Expanding market acceptance of MyoPro products could be negatively impacted by many other factors, including, but not limited to:

•

patient outcomes not meeting expectations;

•

lack of sufficient evidence supporting the benefits of MyoPro over competitive products or other available treatment, or lifestyle management to accommodate the disability;

•

patient resistance to wearing an external device or making required insurance co-payments;

•

limitations on the ability of patients to complete evaluations and fittings, including adverse changes in their health, or other environmental, social and economic barriers to patient access;

•

results of clinical studies relating to MyoPro or similar products;

•

claims that MyoPro, or any component thereof, infringes on patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties;

Table of Contents

•

perceived risks associated with the use of MyoPro or similar products or technologies; 2

•

the introduction of new competitive products or greater acceptance of competitive products;

•

adverse regulatory or legal actions relating to MyoPro or similar products or technologies; and

•

problems arising from the insourcing of our manufacturing capabilities, or our existing manufacturing and supply relationships with third parties.

Any factors that negatively impact sales of MyoPro would adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

We depend on a single third-party to manufacture key subassemblies for the MyoPro and a limited number of third-party suppliers for certain components of the MyoPro.

While we are the manufacturer of record with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, (the “FDA”) for the MyoPro device we sell, we have contracted with Cogmedix, Inc. (“Cogmedix”), a contract manufacturer with expertise in the medical device industry, for the contract manufacture of certain subassemblies and the sourcing of some of our components and raw materials. Pursuant to this contract, Cogmedix manufactures subassemblies for the MyoPro pursuant to our specifications at its facility in West Boylston, Massachusetts. As the manufacturer of the MyoPro, we ultimately remain responsible to the FDA for overseeing Cogmedix’s manufacturing activities to ensure that they conform with product specifications and applicable laws and regulations, including FDA’s good manufacturing practice requirements for medical devices. Any failure to effectively oversee the regulatory compliance of the product and contract manufacturing activities by Cogmedix can lead to potential enforcement actions, including civil or criminal liabilities, as well as recalls with the FDA. We may terminate our relationship with Cogmedix at any time upon sixty (60) days’ written notice. For our business strategy to be successful, Cogmedix must be able to manufacture our subassemblies in sufficient quantities, and to source raw materials and components, in compliance with regulatory requirements and quality control standards, in accordance with agreed upon specifications, at acceptable costs and on a timely basis. Increases in our product sales, whether forecasted or unanticipated, or supply chain constraints that may arise for any number of reasons, could strain the ability of Cogmedix to manufacture an increasingly large supply of our current or future subassemblies in a manner that meets these various requirements. In addition, although we are not restricted from engaging an alternative manufacturer, the process of moving our manufacturing activities would be time consuming and costly, and may limit our ability to meet our sales commitments, which could harm our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our business. Further, any new contract manufacturer would need to be compliant with FDA regulations the international management system standard for medical systems set by the International Organization for Standardization (“ISO”), ISO 13485:2016.

We also rely on third-party suppliers, including AB Corp, for 3D printed orthotic components. Some third-party suppliers contract directly with Cogmedix, to supply certain components of the MyoPro products. Cogmedix does not have long-term supply agreements with most of their suppliers and, in many cases, makes purchases on a purchase order basis. We do not have any long-term supply agreements directly with Cogmedix’s suppliers. Our ability and Cogmedix’s ability to secure adequate quantities of such products may be limited. Suppliers may encounter problems that limit their ability to manufacture components for our products, including financial difficulties or damage to their manufacturing equipment or facilities. If we, or Cogmedix, fail to obtain sufficient quantities of high-quality components to meet demand on a timely basis, or fail to effectively oversee the regulatory compliance of the supply chain, we could face regulatory enforcement, have to conduct recalls, lose customer orders, our reputation may be harmed, and our business could suffer.

Cogmedix generally uses a small number of suppliers for the MyoPro products. Depending on a limited number of suppliers exposes us to risks, including limited control over pricing, availability, quality and delivery schedules. If any one or more of our suppliers ceases to provide sufficient quantities of components in a timely manner or on acceptable terms, Cogmedix would have to seek alternative sources of supply. It may be difficult to engage additional or replacement suppliers in a timely manner. Failure of these suppliers to deliver products at the level our business requires would limit our ability to meet our sales commitments, which could harm our reputation and could have a material adverse effect on our business. Cogmedix also may have difficulty obtaining similar components from other suppliers that are acceptable to the FDA or other regulatory agencies, and the failure of Cogmedix’s suppliers to comply with strictly enforced regulatory requirements could expose us to regulatory action including warning letters,

Table of Contents

product recalls, termination of distribution, product seizures or civil penalties. It could also require Cogmedix to cease using the components, seek alternative components or technologies and we could be forced to modify our products to incorporate alternative components or technologies, which could result in a requirement to seek additional regulatory approvals. Any disruption of this nature or increased expenses could harm our commercialization efforts and adversely affect our operating results.

We also rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain materials and components used by the MyoPro and do not maintain any long-term supply agreement with respect to these materials and components. If we fail to obtain sufficient quantities of these materials and components in a timely manner, our reputation may be harmed and our business could suffer.

While we currently believe we have sufficient inventory in our supply chain in the near term, if we, or any third parties in our supply chain for materials which are used in either the manufacture of our products are adversely impacted by infections or restrictions from public heath crises, or other factors, our supply chain may be disrupted and our ability to manufacture and ship our products may be limited. While many companies continue to experience shortages of certain electronic components, so far we and our contract manufacturing partners have been able to procure the electronic components necessary for the manufacture of our products, but we are dealing with longer lead times and delivery delays for certain critical components. There can be no assurance that such supplies will become less constrained in the future.

Risks Related to Capital Requirements

We may not have sufficient funds to meet our future capital requirements.

Our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash at December 31, 2024 was approximately $25.2 million. On December 6, 2024, we completed a public offering, selling 3,450,000 shares at $5.00 per share, generating net proceeds after fees and expenses of approximately $15.8 million. On July 11, 2024, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, which provides us the ability to borrow up to $4.0 million against eligible accounts receivable. The line of credit is undrawn as of the issuance date of these financial statements. Availability under the line of credit is approximately $1.0 million as of December 31, 2024. In February 2025, we entered into an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, provided for a $3 million term loan facility which could be drawn at any time until February 28, 2026. On January 19, 2024, we completed a registered direct offering of our common stock and pre-funded warrants, generating net proceeds of approximately $5.4 million.

Our ability to grow our business is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations or to raise additional capital to meet our obligations, if necessary. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to enable us to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months from the issuance date of these financial statements. If additional capital is required to achieve operating cash flow breakeven, we may be unable to obtain additional funds on reasonable terms, or at all. Our ability to secure financing and the cost of raising such capital are dependent on numerous factors, including general economic and capital markets conditions, credit availability from lenders, investor confidence and the existence of regulatory and tax incentives that are conducive to raising capital. Uncertainty in the financial markets has caused banks and financial institutions to decrease the amount of capital available for lending and has significantly increased the risk premium of such borrowings. In addition, such turmoil and uncertainty has significantly limited the ability of companies to raise funds through the sale of equity or debt securities. If we are unable to raise additional funds, we may need to delay, modify or abandon some or all of our business plans or cease operations. If we raise funds through the issuance of debt, the amount of any indebtedness that we may raise in the future may be substantial, and we may be required to secure such indebtedness with our assets and may have substantial interest expenses. If we default on any future indebtedness, our lenders could declare all outstanding principal and interest to be due and payable and our secured lenders may foreclose on the facilities securing such indebtedness. Usage of our line of credit requires us to meet financial and operating covenants, which could place limits on our operations, decrease our liquidity and increase the amount of cash flow required to service our debt. If we raise funds through the issuance of equity securities, such issuance could result in dilution to our stockholders and the newly issued securities may have rights senior to those of the holders of our common stock.

Table of Contents

Our level of indebtedness and debt service obligations could adversely affect our financial condition and may make it more difficult for us to fund our operations.

In July 2024, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank. Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, we may request advances on a revolving line of credit whereby we may borrow up to $4 million (the “Revolving Line”), which Revolving Line may be increased to $5.5 million at Silicon Valley Bank’s sole discretion upon the occurrence of certain events. The Revolving Line is secured on a first priority basis by all of our assets other than intellectual property and certain customary exceptions. In February 2025, we entered into an amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement, which among other things, provided for a $3 million term loan facility which could be drawn at any time until February 28, 2026. To the extent we use the Revolving Line, or the term loan facility, such indebtedness may create additional financing risk for us, particularly if our business or prevailing financial market conditions are not conducive to paying off or refinancing our outstanding debt obligations at maturity. This indebtedness could also have important negative consequences, including the fact that:

•

we will need to repay our indebtedness by making payments of interest and principal, which will reduce the amount of money available to finance our operations; and

•

our failure to comply with the restrictive covenants under the Loan Agreement could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, would accelerate our obligation to repay this indebtedness, and Silicon Valley Bank could seek to enforce our security interest in the assets securing such indebtedness.

Risks Related to Competitors and Our Market

The industries in which we operate are highly competitive and subject to rapid technological change. The publishing of fees for the Healthcare Common Procedures Coding System (“HCPCS”) billing codes for our products may attract competition. If our competitors are better able to develop and market products that are safer, more effective, less costly, easier to use, or are otherwise more attractive, we may be unable to compete effectively with other companies.

Industrial and medical robotics is characterized by intense competition and rapid technological change, and we will face competition on the basis of product features, clinical outcomes, price, services and other factors. We are experiencing competition in the United States from companies such as Neurolutions, and in Germany from companies such as Vincent Systems and HKK Bionics. Publication of fees by CMS under our HCPCS billing codes L8701 and L8702 is also expected to attract competition in the United States. Competitors may include large medical device and other companies, some of which have significantly greater financial and marketing resources than we do, and firms that are more specialized than we are with respect to particular markets. Our competition may respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies, undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, and have greater financial, marketing and other resources than we do or may be more successful in attracting potential customers, employees and strategic partners.

Our competitive position will depend on multiple complex factors, including our ability to maintain and grow market acceptance for our products, develop new products, implement production and marketing plans, secure regulatory clearances or approvals, if necessary, for products under development and protect our intellectual property. In some instances, competitors may also offer, or may attempt to develop, alternative therapies for disease states that may be delivered without a medical device. The development of new or improved products, processes or technologies by other companies may render our products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive. The entry into the market of manufacturers located in low-cost manufacturing locations may also create pricing pressure, particularly in developing markets. Our future success depends, among other things, upon our ability to compete effectively against current technology, as well as to respond effectively to technological advances, and upon our ability to successfully implement our marketing strategies and execute our research and development plans.

Table of Contents

We sell to O&P providers who are free to market products that compete with the MyoPro, and we rely on these providers to market and promote our products in accordance with their FDA listings, select appropriate patients and provide adequate follow-on care.

Our reliance on our relationships with qualified O&P providers in the U.S., Germany and other international markets to market and sell our products is expected to increase. We believe that an increasing percentage of our sales will be generated through these channels in the future. However, none of these partners are required to sell or provide our products exclusively. If a key independent O&P provider were to cease to distribute our products, our sales could be adversely affected. In such a situation, we may need to seek alternative independent providers or increase our reliance on our direct billing channel, which may not prevent our sales from being adversely affected. Additionally, to the extent that we enter into contracts with O&P providers, the terms of the arrangements could cause our gross margin to be lower than if we directly marketed and sold our products.

If these independent O&P providers do not follow our inclusion/exclusion criteria for patient selection or do not provide adequate follow-on care, then our reputation may be harmed by patient dissatisfaction. This could also lead to product returns and adversely affect our financial condition. When issues with O&P providers have arisen in the past, we have supplied additional training and documentation and/or ended the business relationship.

The sales and marketing of medical devices is under increased scrutiny by the FDA and other enforcement bodies. If our sales and marketing activities fail to comply with FDA regulations, such as regulations for the labeling and advertising of our products, or other applicable laws, we may be subject to warnings or enforcement actions from the FDA or other enforcement bodies. For example, we are restricted from promoting our products for any use that is beyond the scope of their applicable FDA classification regulation. Such promotion could result in enforcement action by the FDA, which may include, but is not limited to untitled letters or warning letters, injunctions, recall or seizure of our products, and imposition of FDA’s premarket clearance or approval requirements.

The market for myoelectric braces is relatively new and the rate of adoption is uncertain, and important assumptions about the potential market for our products may be inaccurate.

The market for myoelectric braces, or orthotics, is relatively new and the rate of adoption is uncertain. Our estimates of market size are derived from statistics regarding the number of strokes and other afflictions, but not necessarily limited to those with upper extremity impairment. Accordingly, it is difficult to predict the future size and rate of growth of the market. We cannot be certain whether the market will continue to develop or if orthotics will achieve and sustain a level of market acceptance and demand sufficient for us to continue to generate revenue and achieve profitability.

Limited sources exist to obtain reliable market data with respect to the number of mobility-impaired individuals and the occurrence of upper extremity paralysis in our target markets. In addition, there are no third-party reports or studies regarding what percentage of those with upper extremity paralysis would be able to use orthotics in general, or our current or planned future products in particular. In order to use our current products marketed to those with upper extremity paralysis, users must meet a set of inclusion criteria and not have a medical condition which disqualifies them from being an appropriate candidate. Future products for those with upper extremity paralysis may have the same or other restrictions. Our business strategy is based, in part, on our estimates of the number of upper extremity impaired individuals and the incidence of upper extremity injuries in our target markets and the percentage of those groups that would be able to use our current and future products. Our assumptions and estimates may be inaccurate and may change.

If the upper extremity orthotics market fails to develop or develops more slowly than we expect, or if we have relied on sources or made assumptions or estimates that are not accurate, our business could be adversely affected.

In addition, because we operate in a new market, the actions of our competitors could adversely affect our business. Adverse events such as product defects or legal claims with respect to competing or similar products could cause

Table of Contents

reputational harm to the market on the whole. Further, adverse regulatory findings or reimbursement-related decisions with respect to other products could negatively impact the entire market and, accordingly, our business.

Risks Related to Our Products

We may receive a significant number of warranty claims or our MyoPro may require significant amounts of service after sale.

Sales of MyoPro products generally include a three-year warranty for parts and labor, other than for normal wear and tear. As the number and complexity of the features and functionalities of our products increase, we may experience a higher level of warranty claims. If product returns or warranty claims are significant or exceed our expectations, we could incur unanticipated expenditures for parts and services, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

Defects in our products or the software that drives them could adversely affect the results of our operations.

The design, manufacture and marketing of the MyoPro products involve certain inherent risks. Manufacturing or design defects, unanticipated use of the MyoPro, or inadequate disclosure of risks relating to the use of MyoPro products can lead to injury or other adverse events. In addition, because the manufacturing of our products is outsourced to Cogmedix, we may not always be aware of manufacturing defects that could occur and corrective or preventive actions implemented by Cogmedix may not be effective at resolving such defects. Such adverse events could lead to recalls or safety alerts relating to MyoPro products (either voluntary or required by the FDA or similar governmental authorities in other countries), and could result, in certain cases, in the removal of MyoPro products from the market. A recall could result in significant costs. To the extent any manufacturing defect occurs, our agreement with Cogmedix contains a limitation on Cogmedix’s liability, and therefore we could be required to incur the majority of related costs. A defect in connection with the fabrication of our products may result in significant costs in connection with lawsuits or refunds. Product defects or recalls could also result in negative publicity, damage to our reputation or, in some circumstances, delays in new product approvals.

MyoPro users may not use MyoPro products in accordance with safety protocols and training, which could enhance the risk of injury. Any such occurrence could cause delay in market acceptance of MyoPro products, damage to our reputation, additional regulatory filings, product recalls, increased service and warranty costs, product liability claims and loss of revenue relating to such hardware or software defects.

The medical device industry has historically been subject to extensive litigation over product liability claims. We have not been subject to such claims to date, but we may become subject to product liability claims alleging defects in the design, manufacture or labeling of our products in the future. A product liability claim, regardless of its merit or eventual outcome, could result in significant legal defense costs and high punitive damage payments. Although we maintain product liability insurance, the coverage is subject to deductibles and limitations, and may not be adequate to cover future claims. Additionally, we may be unable to maintain our existing product liability insurance in the future at satisfactory rates or in adequate amounts.

While there is long-term clinical data supporting the safety of our existing MyoPro products, updates to our products inherently have uncertain safety risks as they enter the market.

While clinical data have established the safety of MyoPro products, our products undergo periodic updates for various reasons, including performance and reliability improvements and cost reductions. For example, in January 2022, we announced the availability of MyoPro2+. Because MyoPro users generally do not have feeling in their upper extremities, they may not immediately notice adverse effects from updates to the MyoPro, which could exacerbate their impact. If MyoPro products are shown to present new risks or to be unsafe or cause such unforeseen effects in the future, our business and reputation could be harmed, including through field corrections, withdrawals, removals, mandatory product recalls, suspension or withdrawal of FDA registration, significant legal liability or harm to our business reputation.

Risks Related to Collaborations and Licensing Agreements

We may enter into collaborations, licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships with third parties that may not result in the development of commercially viable products or the generation of significant future revenues.

In the ordinary course of our business, in the future we may enter into collaborations, in-licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships to develop the MyoPro and to pursue new markets. We are selling the MyoPro in several European countries, as well as Australia. In January 2021, we announced that we had entered into a joint venture with Beijing Ryzur Medical Investment Co., Ltd. (“Ryzur Medical”), to manufacture and sell the products containing our technology in China, including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau. The company is named Jiangxi Myomo Medical Assistive Appliance Co., Ltd. (the “JV Company”). In December 2021, we entered into a technology license agreement and a trademark license agreement with the JV Company, under which we were entitled to receive a license fee of $2.7 million and the JV Company will commit to purchase a minimum of $10.75 million of MyoPro control units over the next ten years. During 2023, we received full payment of the $2.7 million initial license fee and have received payment for MyoPro control units of $50,000. This and any other of these relationships may require us to incur non-recurring and other charges, increase our near and long-term expenditures, issue securities that dilute our existing stockholders or disrupt our management and business. In addition, proposing, negotiating and implementing collaborations, licensing arrangements, joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships may be a lengthy and complex process. We may not identify, secure, or complete any such transactions or arrangements in a timely manner, on a cost-effective basis, on acceptable terms or at all. We have limited institutional knowledge and experience with respect to these business development activities, and we may also not realize the anticipated benefits of any such transaction or arrangement. In particular, these collaborations may not result in the development of products that achieve commercial success or result in significant revenues and could be terminated prior to developing any products. Any delays in entering into new strategic partnership agreements related to our products could delay the development and commercialization of our products in certain geographies, which would harm our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

If we pursue collaborations, additional licensing arrangements and joint ventures, strategic alliances or partnerships, we may not be able to consummate them, or we may not be in a position to exercise sole decision decision-making authority regarding the transaction or arrangement, which could create the potential risk of creating impasses on decisions, and our collaborators may have economic or business interests or goals that are, or that may become, inconsistent with our business interests or goals. It is possible that conflicts may arise with our collaborators. Our collaborators may act in their self-interest, which may be adverse to our best interest, and they may breach their obligations to us. Any such disputes could result in litigation or arbitration which would increase our expenses and divert the attention of our management. Further, these transactions and arrangements are contractual in nature and may be terminated or dissolved under the terms of the applicable agreements.

Risks Related to Our Business Operations and Management

If we fail to properly manage our anticipated growth, including in O&P channel and international markets, our business could suffer.

As we grow our revenues from Medicare Part B patients and expand the number of locations which provide the MyoPro products, including O&P practices in the United States, and future planned international distribution, we expect that it will place significant strain on our management team and on our financial resources. Failure to manage our growth effectively could cause us to mis-allocate management or financial resources and result in losses or weaknesses in our infrastructure, systems, processes and controls, which could materially adversely affect our business. Additionally, our anticipated growth will increase the demands placed on our suppliers, resulting in an increased need for us to manage our suppliers and monitor for quality assurance.

Moreover, there are significant costs and risks inherent in selling our products, particularly in international markets, including: (a) time and difficulty in building a widespread network of distribution partners; (b) increased shipping and distribution costs, which could increase our expenses and reduce our margins; (c) potentially lower margins in some regions; (d) longer collection cycles in some regions; (e) compliance with foreign laws and regulations; (f) compliance

with anti-bribery, anti-corruption, and anti-money laundering laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations, by us, our employees, and our business partners; (g) currency exchange rate fluctuations and related effects on our results of operations; (h) economic weakness, including inflation, or political instability in foreign economies and markets; (i) compliance with tax, employment, immigration, and labor laws for employees living or traveling abroad; (j) workforce uncertainty in countries where labor unrest is more common than in the United States; (k) business interruptions resulting from geopolitical actions, including war and terrorism, or natural disasters, including earthquakes, typhoons, floods and fires; and (l) other costs and risks of doing business internationally, such as new tariffs which may be imposed. For example, we have entered into a joint venture with Ryzur Medical, to manufacture and sell the products containing the Company’s technology in China, including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau. In connection with this joint venture, we may encounter challenges in working with our joint venture partners, including with respect to compliance with local laws and domestic laws related to foreign operations.

These and other factors could harm our ability to implement planned growth in international operations and, consequently, harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Further, we may incur significant operating expenses as a result of our planned expansion activities, and they may not be successful. We have limited experience with regulatory environments and market practices internationally, and we may not be able to penetrate or successfully operate in new markets. We may also encounter difficulty growing the O&P channel while simultaneously being a direct provider to patients in the United States. and expanding into international markets because of limited brand recognition. These factors may lead to delayed or limited acceptance of our products by patients in these markets. Accordingly, if we are unable to expand O&P channel revenues in the United States., expand internationally or manage our international operations successfully, we may not achieve the expected benefits of this expansion and our financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

We depend on the knowledge and skills of our senior management.

We have benefited substantially from the leadership and performance of our senior management and other key employees. We do not carry key person insurance. Our success will depend on our ability to retain our current management and key employees. Competition for these key persons in our industry is intense and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to retain our personnel. The loss of the services of certain members of our senior management or key employees could prevent or delay the implementation and completion of our strategic objectives or divert management’s attention to seeking qualified replacements.

We may seek to grow our business through acquisitions of complementary products or technologies, and the failure to manage acquisitions, or the failure to integrate them with our existing business, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.

From time to time, we may consider opportunities to acquire other products or technologies that may enhance our products or technology or advance our business strategies. Potential acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:

•

problems assimilating the acquired products or technologies;

•

issues maintaining uniform standards, procedures, controls and policies;

•

unanticipated costs associated with acquisitions;

•

diversion of management’s attention from our existing business;

•

risks associated with entering new markets in which we have limited or no experience; and

•

increased legal and accounting costs relating to the acquisitions or compliance with regulatory matters.

We have no current commitments with respect to any acquisition and no current plans to seek acquisitions; however, depending on industry and market conditions, we may consider acquisitions in the future. If we do proceed with acquisitions, we do not know if we will be able to identify acquisitions we deem suitable, whether we will be able to successfully complete any such acquisitions on favorable terms or at all, or whether we will be able to successfully

integrate any acquired products or technologies. Our potential inability to integrate any acquired products or technologies effectively may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Risks Related to Government Regulation

Risks Related to Healthcare Industry

We are subject to extensive governmental regulations relating to the design, development, manufacturing, labeling and marketing, delivery and billing of our products, and a failure to comply with such regulations could lead to withdrawal or recall of our products from the market.

Our products are regulated as medical devices in the United States under the FFDCA, as implemented and enforced by the FDA. Under the FFDCA, medical devices are classified into one of three classes–Class I, Class II or Class III–depending on the degree of risk associated with the medical device, what is known about the type of device, and the extent of control needed to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. Classification of a device is important because the class to which a device is assigned determines, among other things, the necessity and type of FDA pre-market review. This determination is required prior to marketing the device.

In 2012, we listed the MyoPro device as a Class I, 510(k)-exempt, limb orthosis with the FDA. From time to time, the FDA may disagree with the classification regulation under which a registrant lists their device. For example, the FDA may disagree with a registrant’s determination to classify their device as a Class I medical device. Instead, the FDA may determine the device to be a Class II or Class III device requiring the submission of a premarket notification, or 510(k), or a premarket approval application for premarket clearance or approval. As the FDA is now giving more attention to the differentiated performance of myoelectric controlled orthotics, we elected to change our device listing to be under a Class II classification regulation for biofeedback devices. Under the classification regulation, we believe our device remains 510(k)-exempt as a prescription battery powered external limb orthosis that is indicated for functional improvement, a device which is generally 510(k)-exempt under the classification regulation. In the event that the FDA determines that our devices, whether by functionality or marketing claims, exceed the limitations on 510(k)-exemption such that premarket clearance or approval is required (i.e., that our device is intended for a use different from the intended use of a legally marketed device in the generic type of device under the applicable classification regulation or that our modified device operates using a different fundamental scientific technology than such a legally marketed device), should be classified as Class II devices or Class III devices requiring premarket clearance or approval, or should FDA decide to reclassify our device as a Class II or Class III device requiring premarket clearance or approval, we could be precluded from marketing our devices for clinical use within the United States for months or longer depending on the requirements of the classification. Obtaining premarket clearance or approval could significantly increase our regulatory costs, including expense associated with required preclinical (animal) and clinical (human) trials, more extensive mechanical and electrical testing and other costs.

We are registered with the FDA as a manufacturer for medical devices. We are also subject to regulation by foreign governmental agencies in connection with international sales. The agencies enforce laws and regulations that govern the development, testing, manufacturing, labeling, advertising, marketing and distribution, and market surveillance of our medical device products. Following the introduction of a product, the governmental agencies will periodically review our product development methodology, quality management systems, and product performance. We are under a continuing obligation to ensure that all applicable regulatory requirements, such as the FDA’s medical device good manufacturing practice / Quality System Regulation (“QSR”) requirements and the FDA’s medical device reporting requirements for certain device-related adverse events and malfunction, continue to be met. Our facilities are subject to periodic and unannounced inspection by U.S. and foreign regulatory agencies to audit compliance with the QSR, and comparable foreign regulations.

The process of complying with the applicable QSR, medical device reporting, and other requirements can be costly and time consuming, and could delay or prevent the production, manufacturing or sale of the MyoPro. If the FDA determines that we fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements, they may issue an inquiry or an untitled or warning letter with one or more citations of non-compliance. These inquiries or letters, if not closed promptly, can result in fines, delays or suspensions of regulatory clearances, closure of manufacturing sites, seizures or recalls of products and damage to our reputation. Similarly, if we fail to comply with applicable foreign regulatory requirements,

Table of Contents

we may be subject to, among other things, fines, suspension or withdrawal of regulatory approvals, product recalls, seizure of products, operating restrictions and criminal prosecution. Recent changes in enforcement practice by the FDA and other agencies have resulted in increased enforcement activity, which increases the compliance risk that we and other companies in our industry are facing.

In addition, governmental agencies of the United States or other countries may impose new requirements regarding registration, labeling or prohibited materials that may require us to modify or re-register the MyoPro once it is already on the market or otherwise impact our ability to market the MyoPro in the United States or other countries. For example, on February 2, 2024, the FDA published a final rule to amend its QSR requirements to align more closely with the international consensus standards for medical devices by converging with quality management system (“QMS”) requirements used by other regulatory authorities from other countries. Specifically, the final rule does so primarily by incorporating by reference the 2016 edition of the ISO 13485 standard. The amended regulation is referred to as the Quality Management System Regulation (“QMSR”) and is effective February 2, 2026. If we are slow or unable to adapt to changes in existing requirements or the adoption of new requirements or policies, or if we are not able to maintain regulatory compliance, we may lose any marketing authorization that we may have obtained, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations, financial condition and our ability to achieve or sustain profitability. The process of complying with these governmental regulations can be costly and time consuming, and could delay or prevent the production, manufacturing or sale of the MyoPro. For instance, the FDA may issue mandates, known as 522 orders, requiring us to conduct post-market surveillance studies of our devices. Failure to comply could result in enforcement of the FFDCA against us or our products including an agency request that we recall our MyoPro products.

Our relationships with healthcare providers and physicians and third-party payers will be subject to applicable anti-kickback, fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations, which could expose us to criminal sanctions, civil penalties, contractual damages, reputational harm and diminished profits and future earnings.

We are subject to broadly applicable fraud and abuse and other healthcare laws and regulations, including, without limitation, the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and the federal False Claims Act, which may constrain the business or financial arrangements and relationships through which we sell, market and distribute our products. In particular, the promotion, sales and marketing of healthcare items and services, as well as certain business arrangements in the healthcare industry (e.g., healthcare providers, physicians and third-party payers), are subject to extensive laws designed to prevent fraud, kickbacks, self-dealing and other abusive practices. These laws and regulations may restrict or prohibit a wide range of pricing, discounting, marketing and promotion, structuring and commission(s), certain customer incentive programs and other business arrangements generally. Marketing and promotional programs may also be affected by the application of healthcare privacy laws relating to the use of information gathered by social media companies in advertising activities. We are also subject to patient information and privacy and security regulation by both the federal government and the states and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. See section titled “Business – Government Regulation – Healthcare Privacy Laws and Regulations”, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The scope and enforcement of each of these laws is uncertain and subject to rapid change in the current environment of healthcare reform. Federal and state enforcement bodies often scrutinize interactions between healthcare companies and healthcare providers, which has led to a number of investigations, prosecutions, convictions and settlements in the healthcare industry. Ensuring business arrangements comply with applicable healthcare laws, as well as responding to possible investigations by government authorities, can be time- and resource-consuming and can divert a company’s attention from the business.

The failure to comply with any of these laws or regulatory requirements subject entities to possible legal or regulatory action. Because of the breadth of these laws and the narrowness of the statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors available, it is possible that some of our business activities, could, despite efforts to comply, be subject to challenge under one or more of such laws. It is possible that governmental and enforcement authorities will conclude that our business practices may not comply with current or future statutes, regulations or case law interpreting applicable fraud and abuse or other healthcare laws and regulations. Depending on the circumstances, failure to meet applicable regulatory requirements can result in civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, fines, disgorgement, individual imprisonment, exclusion from participation in federal and state funded healthcare programs, contractual damages, reputational harm and the curtailment or restricting of our operations, as well as additional reporting

obligations and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or other agreement to resolve allegations of non-compliance with these laws. Any action for violation of these laws, even if successfully defended, could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and divert management’s attention from the operation of the business. Prohibitions or restrictions on sales or withdrawal of future marketed products could materially affect business in an adverse way. Efforts to ensure that our business arrangements will comply with applicable healthcare laws may involve substantial costs. In addition, the commercialization of any of our products outside the United States will also likely subject us to foreign equivalents of the healthcare laws mentioned above, among other foreign laws.

If we or our third-party manufacturers or key suppliers fail to comply with the applicable good manufacturing practice requirements, including FDA’s Quality System Regulation, our manufacturing operations could be interrupted.

We and our third-party manufacturers and key suppliers are also required to comply with the FDA’s QSR which covers the methods and documentation of the production, control, quality assurance, labeling, packaging, storage and shipping of our products. In February 2024, the FDA issued the QMSR Final Rule to amend the QSR, incorporating by reference, ISO 13485:2016. The rule will become effective on February 2, 2026. Until then, manufacturers are required by the FDA to comply with the QSR. We, Cogmedix, our electromechanical kit manufacturer, and other key suppliers are also subject to the regulations of foreign jurisdictions regarding the manufacturing process with respect to the market for our products abroad.

We continue to monitor our quality management, as well as that of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers to improve our overall level of compliance. Our facilities and those of our third-party manufacturers and key suppliers are subject to periodic and unannounced inspection by U.S. and foreign regulatory agencies to audit compliance with the QSR and comparable foreign regulations. If our facilities or the facilities of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers are found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations, or if we or our third-party manufacturers and suppliers fail to take satisfactory corrective action in response to an adverse inspection, the regulatory authority could take enforcement action, including any of the following sanctions:

•

untitled letters, warning letters, Form 483 findings (results from quality system inspections), fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties;

•

customer notifications or repair, replacement or refunds;

•

detention, recalls or seizure of our products;

•

operating restrictions or partial suspension or total shutdown of production;

•

withdrawing our FDA registration;

•

refusing to provide certificates to foreign governments with respect to exports; and

•

pursuing criminal prosecution.

Any of these sanctions could impair our ability to produce the MyoPro in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to meet our customers’ demands and could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition. We may also be required to bear other costs or take other actions that may have a negative impact on our future sales and our ability to generate profits.

Our employees, principal investigators, consultants and commercial partners may engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including non-compliance with regulatory standards and requirements and insider trading.

It is not always possible to identify and deter misconduct by employees and other third parties, and the precautions we take to detect and prevent this activity may not be effective in controlling unknown or unmanaged risks or losses or in protecting us from governmental investigations or other actions or lawsuits stemming from a failure to comply with these laws or regulations. If any such actions are instituted against us, and we are not successful in defending ourselves or asserting our rights, those actions could have a significant impact on our business, including the imposition of civil, criminal and administrative penalties, damages, monetary fines, imprisonment, possible exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid and other federal healthcare programs, additional reporting requirements and oversight if we become subject to a corporate integrity agreement or similar agreement to resolve allegations of noncompliance with

Table of Contents

these laws, contractual damages, reputational harm, diminished profits and future earnings, and curtailment of our operations, any of which could adversely affect our ability to operate our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We face risks in connection with the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) or its possible replacement or modifications and other ongoing healthcare legislative and regulatory reform measures.

The United States and many foreign jurisdictions have enacted or proposed legislative and regulatory changes affecting the healthcare system that could affect our ability to profitably sell our products. Changes in regulations, statutes or the interpretation of existing regulations could impact our business in the future by requiring, for example: (i) changes to our manufacturing arrangements; (ii) additions or modifications to product labeling; (iii) the recall or discontinuation of our products; or (iv) additional record-keeping requirements. If any such changes were to be imposed, they could adversely affect the operation of our business.

Payers, whether domestic or foreign, or governmental or private, are developing increasingly sophisticated methods of controlling healthcare costs and those methods are not always specifically adapted for new technologies. In the United States, there have been and continue to be a number of legislative and regulatory initiatives and judicial challenges to contain healthcare costs. See section titled “Business – Government Regulations – Current and Future Legislation”, in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We expect that the ACA, as well as other healthcare reform measures that may be adopted in the future, may result in additional reductions in Medicare and other healthcare funding, more rigorous coverage criteria, lower reimbursement, and new payment methodologies. This could lower the price that we receive for our products. Any denial or narrowing of coverage or reduction in reimbursement from Medicare or other government-funded programs may result in a similar denial or reduction in payments from private payers, including Medicare Advantage plans, which may prevent us from being able to generate sufficient revenue, attain profitability or commercialize our products. Litigation and legislative efforts to change or repeal the ACA are likely to continue, with unpredictable and uncertain results. It is not clear how these developments, or other future potential changes to the ACA, will change the reimbursement model and market outlook for O&P devices such as the MyoPro. We intend to monitor industry trends relative to the ACA to assist in our determination of how the MyoPro can fit into patient care protocols with providers such as rehabilitation hospitals and surgery centers. If reimbursement policies change significantly, the demand for MyoPro products may be impacted.

Risks Related to Cybersecurity and Data Protection

Our internal computer systems, or those of our customers, collaborators or other contractors, may be subject to cyber-attacks, compromises or security incidents, which could result in a material disruption of our product development programs.

Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems and infrastructures and those of our customers, collaborators, contractors, or other third parties are vulnerable to damage, compromise or interruption from computer viruses, unauthorized access, misuse, or other security compromises or breaches. Cyber-attacks are increasing in their frequency, sophistication and intensity, and have become increasingly difficult to detect. Cyber-attacks could include the deployment of harmful malware, ransomware, denial-of-service attacks, wrongful conduct by employees, vendors, or other third parties, hostile foreign governments, industrial espionage, social engineering and business email compromises, and other means to affect service reliability and threaten or compromise the security, confidentiality, integrity and availability of systems and information. Cyber-attacks also could include phishing attempts or e-mail fraud to cause payments or information to be transmitted to an unintended recipient. We have in the past experienced threats and security incidents related to our data and systems, and we may in the future experience other threats, compromises, breaches, or incidents. A cyber-attack or security compromise or incident could cause interruptions in our operations and could result in a material disruption of our business operations, damage to our reputation or a loss of revenues.

In the ordinary course of our business, we collect and store confidential and/or proprietary information or other sensitive information, including, among other things, personal information about our employees and patients, intellectual property, and proprietary business information. Any cyber-attack or security compromise or incident that
