AUSTIN, Texas, March 27, 2025 – EDAP TMS SA (Nasdaq: EDAP), the global leader in robotic energy-based therapies, reported today unaudited consolidated financial results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2024.

“Our strong fourth quarter performance reflects our continued progress in establishing Focal One Robotic HIFU as a mainstream treatment option for the management of prostate cancer,” said Ryan Rhodes, Chief Executive Officer of EDAP TMS. “We achieved a quarterly record number of sales for Focal One systems, both in the U.S. and globally, and the number of Focal One procedures continues to grow at a solid pace. In December, we announced the publication of the HIFI Study in the prestigious medical journal, European Urology. We believe the positive results from this landmark clinical trial have the ability to reshape the treatment paradigm for prostate cancer and ultimately help drive further adoption of the Focal One platform.

“As we build momentum in our core Focal One business, we remain focused on expanding into multiple high growth opportunities for therapeutic HIFU, while also reducing investments in non-core products. Given Focal One’s market leading technology, I believe we are uniquely positioned to create significant value for patients, physicians and our shareholders as we continue expanding into the prostate cancer market, while also advancing our clinical development programs in endometriosis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and pancreatic cancer.”

Business Update

• On March 26, 2025, the Company’s Focal One Robotic HIFU System received CE Mark certification from GMED, EDAP’s notified body, for the treatment of posterior deep endometriosis infiltrating the rectum and surrounding structures.
• The Company recently attended the European Association of Urology Meeting, which took place in Madrid, Spain from March 21-24, 2025. During the conference, the Company offered numerous hands-on simulations with Focal One while also discussing the treatment implications from the recently published landmark HIFI Study.
• On March 3, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Glen French to its Board of Directors. Mr. French is a highly accomplished executive with extensive business and clinical expertise in the development of innovative new medical devices and technology. For nearly a decade, Glen was the President and CEO of Pulmonx Corporation, which develops minimally invasive technologies for the diagnosis and treatment for patients with severe emphysema. Under his leadership, Pulmonx experienced more than 20% annual compound revenue growth rate. Over the course of his career, he has co-founded, built and sold three medical device companies and took a fourth company public.
• On February 6, 2025, the Company announced the successful completion of the world’s first OnQ Prostate-assisted Focal One Robotic HIFU procedure at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Prostate Center. This milestone marks the first clinical application of OnQ Prostate’s patented Restriction Spectrum Imaging (RSI) technology to guide focal therapy, demonstrating how advanced MR-imaging can improve lesion localization and targeting for urologists performing focal therapy.
• On January 10, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Joshua H. Levine to its Board of Directors. Mr. Levine is a strategic business leader with decades of diverse global board and executive management experience within the medical technology industry. He possesses a deep expertise in portfolio transformation, strategic business development and driving shareholder value. From 2012 to 2022, Mr. Levine served as President, Chief Executive Officer, and Director of Accuray Incorporated, where he led a transformative turnaround that involved all strategic, operational, and financial activities that restored the business to consistent top line growth, positive operating profit, free cash flow (EBITDA), and expanded the company’s global footprint.
• On December 4, 2024, the Company announced the publication of the full results from the HIFI study in the prestigious, peer-reviewed journal, European Urology, which has the highest impact factor amongst scientific journals focused in urology. The study evaluated HIFU versus radical prostatectomy (RP) as a first line treatment of localized prostate cancer. The paper is entitled “Whole-gland or Subtotal High-intensity Focused Ultrasound Versus Radical Prostatectomy: The Prospective, Noninferiority, Nonrandomized, HIFI Trial” and is authored by Dr. Guillaume Ploussard from Department of Urology, UROSUD, Clinique La Croix du Sud, France. A link to the publication can be found here.

HIFI is the first prospective, multi-center, non-inferiority comparative study evaluating HIFU and RP in the management of localized prostate cancer. This seven-year study (April 2015 – March 2022) enrolled a total of 3,328 patients from 46 treatment centers: 1,967 consecutive patients were treated with EDAP’s robotic HIFU technologies, where Focal One was used for 90% of the patients, and 1,361 patients underwent radical prostatectomy. All patients were followed for 30 months. A summary of the HIFI results can be found at https://hifistudy.com/.

• On November 22, 2024, the Company announced a scientific presentation which demonstrated the technical feasibility of performing non-thermal histotripsy energy delivery and generating histotripsy lesions in biological tissues ex vivo using the Company’s Focal One Robotic HIFU technology. The results from the study were presented on November 19^th at the 187^th Acoustical Society of America meeting, which is took place virtually from November 18 – 22, 2024.
• On November 2, 2024, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, CMS, released the final payment rules for 2025. The HIFU procedure continues to be supported with favorable reimbursement with CMS finalizing a Medicare Hospital payment rate of $9,247 as a national average, adjusted locally with the corresponding local wage index factor. The rate will become effective on January 1, 2025, and represents a 5.4% increase over the 2024 payment. This continues to support the favorable strategic business case for hospitals to both invest and integrate Focal One HIFU while providing greater access to this valuable, non-invasive treatment option.

CMS also released the physician fee schedule for 2025 which continues to provide strong physician reimbursement for HIFU with 17.73 work relative value units, or work RVUs, and 29.41 Total RVUs. These figures are significantly higher than any other prostate ablation procedure. Additionally, it provides physicians with a level of reimbursement that is more than 80% of the payment for performing surgery, including Robotic Radical Prostatectomy. The Company believes that this continued support of the defined reimbursement levels for the use of HIFU provides a financially sound and sustainable economic offering for both the hospital and the physician.

Clinical Pipeline Update

Pancreatic Cancer Program

• On January 8, 2025, the Company announced that the first patient was treated in the phase I/II PULS Trial sponsored by the Centre Léon Bérard, Lyon, France, evaluating proprietary High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU) technology for the treatment of pancreatic tumors. The PULS Trial is a phase I/II, multicenter study for patients with locally advanced and unresectable pancreatic tumors. The phase I trial aims at evaluating the tolerance of intraoperative HIFU intervention on the pancreatic lesion. The phase II trial aims at evaluating the preliminary efficacy of the HIFU intervention.

Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) Program

• On October 1, 2024, the Company announced that the first patients were treated in Phase I/II study evaluating Focal One Robotic HIFU for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The Phase I/II study is a company-sponsored, prospective, multicenter clinical trial designed as a two-part study. Part 1 of the Phase I/II study will take place at three leading academic prostate treatment centers in France with a recognized expertise in the treatment of BPH as well as in the use of Focal One HIFU technology. Part 1 is designed to define the optimal treatment parameters to effectively treat BPH and its related symptoms with minimal side effects. Part 2 of the study will expand patient enrollment across a larger number of treatment centers in order to validate the safety and efficacy of the parameters as defined in Part 1 of the study. In July, the Company received approval from the French National Agency for Medicines and Health Products Safety (ANSM) to initiate a Phase I/II clinical trial investigating Focal One Robotic HIFU in BPH.

Upcoming Meetings and Events

In the second quarter of 2025, EDAP expects to have its largest presence at this year’s the American Urology Association (AUA) Meeting, which will place from April 26-29, 2025, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The AUA meeting is the most widely attended urology-focused conference in the world and is considered the most highly influential, global medical meeting focused on urology.
