**InspireMD Reports First Quarter 2026 Financial Results**

 

*- Reports total Q1 2026 revenue of $3.4 million, representing year-over-year growth of 122% -* 

 

*- Received IDE approval from FDA to initiate the CGUARDIANS III clinical trial of its SwitchGuard neuro protection system for use in TCAR procedures -*

 

*- FDA approval of the original CGuard delivery system anticipated in Q3 2026 -* 

 

*- On track for expected FDA approval of the CGuard Prime 80 cm for TCAR procedures in H2 2026, potentially doubling the Company's addressable market -*

**Miami, FL — May 4, 2026** – InspireMD, Inc. (Nasdaq: NSPR) ("InspireMD" or the "Company"), developer of the CGuard® Prime carotid stent system for the prevention of stroke, today announced financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

**Recent Business Highlights:**

● Generated revenue of $3.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, up 122% year-over-year, with significant growth in demand for CGuard Prime in the U.S. and original CGuard in international markets.

● Supported over 625 cumulative carotid procedures utilizing CGuard Prime across over 100 leading U.S. hospitals and integrated delivery networks since launch.

● Filed for and anticipate FDA approval of the original, clinically proven CGuard stent delivery system in Q3 2026.

● Received Investigational Device Exemption ("IDE") approval from the FDA to initiate the CGUARDIANS III clinical trial that will evaluate the Company's next-generation SwitchGuard neuro protection system ("NPS") with CGuard Prime 80 cm for use in transcarotid artery revascularization ("TCAR") procedures.

● Initiated a voluntary recall of CGuard Prime 135 cm carotid stent delivery system to address the need for technical enhancements to improve user experience and delivery system performance.

"Our first quarter results reflect strong underlying demand and consistent clinical outcomes for our CGuard carotid stent implant both in the U.S. and internationally," stated Marvin Slosman, Chief Executive Officer of InspireMD. "While our decision to voluntarily pause commercialization of CGuard Prime 135 cm in the U.S. will impact its availability in the short term, we are in the process of implementing several enhancements to the delivery system that we are confident will elevate technical performance and accelerate rapid adoption. Importantly, our TCAR program is unaffected by this voluntary action, and we were also pleased to have recently received FDA approval to initiate the CGUARDIANS III clinical trial with our SwitchGuard NPS, which, if successful, would enable us to offer a full TCAR tool kit leveraging our best-in-class implant."

"In parallel, we are pursuing FDA approval of our commercially-proven CGuard stent delivery system which we anticipate in the third quarter of 2026. This delivery system was successfully used in over 70,000 implants globally. Having this additional delivery system available in the U.S. will enable us to offer physicians multiple options to deliver the best implant to their patients," Mr. Slosman concluded.

**Financial Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2026**

For the first quarter of 2026, total revenue was $3.4 million, representing an increase of 122%, as compared to $1.5 million during the same period of 2025.

U.S. revenue for the first quarter of 2026 was $1.2 million, representing a quarter-over-quarter increase of 36% as compared to $0.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. International revenue was $2.2 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 48%, as compared to $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2025.

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2026 was $0.7 million, or 20.2% of revenue, compared to $0.3 million, or 19.1% of revenue, for the same period of 2025. The increase in gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of revenue) was driven by a favorable shift in sales mix towards significantly higher margin revenue from sales in the U.S., offset by an inventory impairment charge of $0.5 million. On a non-GAAP basis, which excludes the impact of the impairment charge as calculated in the attached non-GAAP reconciliation table, adjusted gross profit was $1.2 million, or 34.1% of revenue.

Total operating expenses for the first quarter of 2026 were $14.7 million, an increase of $2.9 million, compared to $11.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily due to greater headcount-related expenses for the U.S. commercial team, as well as additional investment in resources and infrastructure to support U.S. commercialization.

Financial income, net, for the first quarter of 2026 was $0.3 million, roughly flat with the first quarter of 2025.

Net loss for the first quarter of 2026 was $13.7 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss of $11.2 million, or $0.22 per basic and diluted share, for the same period in 2025.

The Company currently expects the financial impact of the U.S. recall of CGuard Prime to include a reserve for customer returns of approximately $700,000 and a reserve for inventory impairment and remediation costs of approximately $650,000.

More detailed information about the Company and the risk factors that may affect the realization of forward-looking statements is set forth in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

The Company assumes no obligation to publicly update or revise its forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.*

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

To supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), this press release and the accompanying tables include supplemental financial information, referred to as non-GAAP financial measure, that have not been prepared in accordance GAAP, including adjusted gross profit. The Company believes that the use of non-GAAP accounting measures is useful to its investors as an additional tool to enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management in its financial and operational decision making. The Company defines adjusted gross profit as gross profit excluding the impact of the reserve for inventory impairment recognized during the period.

The non-GAAP financial data are not measures of the Company's financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to gross margin or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures may not provide information that is directly comparable to that provided by other companies in other industries or within InspireMD's industry, as other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently, particularly related to non-recurring, unusual items. In addition, there are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures because the non-GAAP financial measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies and exclude expenses that may have a material impact on the Company's reported financial results. Further, the reserve for inventory impairment recognized during the period is a significant item that affects gross profit and may obscure the Company's underlying operating performance and comparability between periods.

The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation, as a substitute for, or superior to the directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. InspireMD urges investors to review the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliation of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures included below, and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the Company's business.
