## Exhibit 99.1

**Exhibit 99.1**

**Orchestra BioMed to Receive Up to $21 Million in Proceeds from Acquisition of Vivasure by Haemonetics**

*$11 million in proceeds expected to be received during 2026, with remainder of expected proceeds to be received in future revenue earnouts*

- *Vivasure Medical Limited ("Vivasure") has been a strategic holding of Orchestra BioMed since the Company's formation*

*NEW HOPE, PA, January 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)* -- Orchestra BioMed Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: OBIO, "Orchestra BioMed" or the "Company"), a biomedical innovation company accelerating high-impact technologies to patients through risk-reward sharing partnerships, today announced that it expects to receive up to $21 million in cash proceeds in connection with the acquisition of Vivasure, an Ireland-based company pioneering next-generation technology for percutaneous vessel closure, by Haemonetics Corporation (NYSE: HAE, "Haemonetics"), which closed on January 9, 2026.

Vivasure was a strategic holding of Orchestra BioMed prior to the transaction. In connection with the closing of the transaction, Orchestra BioMed expects to receive $11 million of proceeds in 2026 made up of approximately $5 million upfront and approximately $6 million in a first milestone payment. The remainder of the proceeds are expected to be received in future revenue earnouts based on the achievement of certain milestones.

Vivasure's PerQseal<sup>®</sup> Elite system uses a proprietary bioabsorbable patch to seal large-bore (up to 26 F) arteriotomies and venotomies from inside the vessel, offering a sutureless, fully absorbable solution for structural heart and endovascular procedures. In 2025, Vivasure submitted a Premarket Approval application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the PerQseal Elite arterial closure system and received CE Mark approval in Europe for both arterial and venous indications. Results from the prospective, single-arm, multi-center ELITE arterial study demonstrated ease of use with no need for pre-close, with 0% major complications at 30-day follow-up, and immediate median time to hemostasis.<sup>1,2</sup>

**Andrew Glass, Chief Executive Officer of Vivasure Medical Limited commented,** "Orchestra BioMed has been a deeply engaged partner since the earliest days of Vivasure. Their co-founders helped to lead our initial financing and supported the development of our PerQseal technology from concept stage. With Orchestra BioMed CEO, David Hochman, serving as an active board observer since 2019, and COO, Darren Sherman as an original board member through 2016, their strategic insight and guidance contributed meaningfully to the development of our product and its evolution to this next chapter."

"We recognize and appreciate the meaningful role Orchestra BioMed played as a long-term strategic partner in the development of Vivasure," said **Rajeev Varma, Senior Vice President, Strategy and Corporate Development of Haemonetics**. "Vivasure has built a clinically differentiated closure device technology with PerQseal Elite, supported by strong clinical performance and safety data, representing a compelling opportunity to strengthen our impact in the large-bore closure market and structural heart and endovascular procedures."
