 Kevin Hykes and Joseph Slattery;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026; and

#### PROXY STATEMENT

#### FOR THE 2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

#### TO BE HELD JUNE 1, 2026

------

#### QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THESE PROXY MATERIALS AND VOTING
**Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?**

Pursuant to "Notice and Access" rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the internet. Accordingly, we are sending an Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice") to our stockholders of record. Brokers and other nominees will be sending a similar Notice to all beneficial owners of stock who hold their shares through such broker or nominee. All record and beneficial stockholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice free of charge or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. Instructions on how to access the proxy materials over the internet or to request a printed copy may be found in the Notice.

We expect that this Proxy Statement and the Notice will be mailed to stockholders on or about April 20, 2026.

#### Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Annual Meeting to be held on

#### June 1, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (Central Time) via the internet.

#### Please visit www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CVRX2026 for more details.

#### The Proxy Statement and 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K are available

#### at: www.proxyvote.com.

#### How do I attend the Annual Meeting?
The Annual Meeting will be held on Monday, June 1, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (Central Time) in a virtual meeting format. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting in person. At our virtual Annual Meeting, stockholders will be able to attend, vote and submit questions via the internet. You will need your 16-digit control number included on the Notice, on the proxy card or in the instructions that accompanied the proxy materials to enter the Annual Meeting. You may log into the virtual meeting platform beginning at 9:45 a.m. (Central Time) on June 1, 2026.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance of the Annual Meeting by one of the methods described in these proxy materials.

Information on how to vote at the Annual Meeting is discussed below.

#### Can I ask questions at the virtual Annual Meeting?
Stockholders as of our Record Date who attend and participate in our virtual Annual Meeting will have an opportunity to submit questions via the internet during a designated portion of the Annual Meeting. Stockholders will be limited to no more than two questions per person.

#### What if I have technical difficulties during the meeting or trouble accessing the virtual Annual Meeting?
We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting during check-in or the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual meeting platform log-in page.

#### Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?
Only validated stockholders at the close of business on the Record Date of April 6, 2026, will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 26,430,915 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

------

*Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name*

If, on April 6, 2026, your shares were registered directly in your name with the Company's transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy over the telephone or on the internet as instructed below (see "*How do I vote?*") or, if applicable, complete, date, sign and return the proxy card mailed to you to ensure your vote is counted.

*Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or Other Nominee*

If, on April 6, 2026, your shares were held, not in your name, but rather in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" and the Notice is being sent to you by the organization that holds your account. The organization holding your account is considered to be the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee regarding how to vote the shares in your account. The deadline for submitting your voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee is listed on the notice sent to you. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting and should follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee on how to gain admittance and vote or ask questions.

#### What am I voting on?
There are two matters scheduled for a vote:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Election of three Class II directors to serve until the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors are duly elected and qualified; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton LLP ("Grant Thornton") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

#### What if another matter is properly brought before the Annual Meeting?
The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote the shares for which you grant your proxy on those matters in accordance with their best judgment.

#### What is the Board's voting recommendation?
The Board recommends that you vote your shares:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "For" the election of the three nominees for director; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• "For" the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the Company's fiscal year ending December 31, 2026.

#### How do I vote?
With regard to the election of directors, you may either vote "For" the nominees or you may "Withhold" your vote for the nominees you specify. For any other matters to be voted on, you may vote "For" or "Against" or abstain from voting.

The procedures for voting depend on whether your shares are registered in your name or are held by a broker, bank or other nominee:

*Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name*

------

If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote at the Annual Meeting, vote by proxy over the telephone, vote by proxy through the internet, or vote by proxy using a proxy card provided by us. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the virtual Annual Meeting and vote even if you have already voted by proxy. Voting at the Annual Meeting will have the effect of revoking your previously submitted proxy (see "*Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?*" below).

|:---|:---|
| **By Internet** | If you received the Notice or a printed copy of the Proxy Materials, follow the instructions in the Notice or on the proxy card. |
| **By Telephone** | If you received the Notice or a printed copy of the Proxy Materials, follow the instructions in the Notice or on the proxy card. |
| **By Mail** | If you received a printed copy of the Proxy Materials, complete, sign, date, and mail your proxy card in the enclosed, postage-prepaid envelope. |
| **In Person**<br> (Virtual) | You may also vote in person virtually by attending the Annual Meeting through www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CVRX2026. As described above, you need the 16-digit control number on your Notice or proxy card to access the virtual meeting platform. |

---

*Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of Broker, Bank or Other Nominee*

If you hold your shares through a broker, bank or other nominee (that is, in street name), you will receive a Notice from your broker, bank or nominee that includes instructions that you must follow in order to submit your voting instructions and have your shares voted at the Annual Meeting.

#### How many votes do I have?
On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of April 6, 2026, the Record Date.

#### What if I return a proxy card or otherwise vote but do not make specific choices?
If you return a signed and dated proxy card, or otherwise vote, without marking voting selections, your shares will be voted, as applicable, "For" the election of the three nominees for Class II director and "For" the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. If any other matter is properly presented at the Annual Meeting, your proxy holder (one of the individuals named on your proxy card) will vote your shares using his or her best judgment.

#### Will my vote be kept confidential?
Proxies, ballots and voting tabulations are handled on a confidential basis to protect your voting privacy. This information will not be disclosed, except as required by law.

#### Can I change my vote after submitting my proxy?
Yes. You can revoke your proxy at any time before the final vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are the record holder of your shares, you may revoke your proxy in any one of the following ways on or before the close of voting for the Annual Meeting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may submit another properly completed proxy card with a later date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may grant a subsequent timely proxy by telephone or through the internet.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may send a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy to Secretary, CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway, Suite 650, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55445; provided, however, if you intend to revoke your
 proxy by providing such written notice, we advise that you also send a copy via email to ir@cvrx.com.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• You may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. Simply attending the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

Your most current proxy card or telephone or internet proxy is the one that is counted, so long as it is provided within the applicable deadline. If your shares are held by your broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee to change your vote or revoke your proxy.

#### How are votes counted?
Votes will be counted by the inspector of election appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately count votes "For," votes to "Withhold" and broker non-votes for the proposal to elect directors and, with respect to each other proposal, votes "For," votes "Against," votes to "Abstain" and broker non-votes (if applicable).

------

#### What are "broker non-votes"?
Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in "street name" does not give instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on "non-routine" proposals. Generally, if shares are held in street name, the beneficial owner of the shares is entitled to give voting instructions to the broker, bank or other nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker, bank or other nominee can still vote the shares with respect to matters that are considered to be "routine" under applicable rules but cannot vote the shares with respect to "non-routine" matters. On non-routine proposals, any "uninstructed shares" may not be voted by the broker, bank or nominee and are considered to be "broker non-votes." Only the proposal to ratify the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm is considered a "routine" matter for this purpose and brokers, banks or other nominees generally have discretionary voting power with respect to such proposal. Brokers, banks and other nominees do not have authority to vote on the election of directors without voting instruction from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes will be counted for the purpose of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting.

**How many votes are needed to approve each proposal, what are the voting options, how does the Board recommend I vote and what is the effect of an withhold/abstention or broker non-vote?**

---

#### What is the quorum requirement?
A quorum of stockholders is necessary to hold a valid stockholder meeting. A quorum will be present if stockholders holding at least a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote generally in the election of directors are represented in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were 26,430,915 shares outstanding and entitled to vote. Thus, the holders of at least 13,215,458 shares must be in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting to have a quorum.

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy by mail, over the phone or through the internet (or one is submitted on your behalf by your broker, bank or other nominee) or if you vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, votes to "Withhold" and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement.

#### How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?
Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. In addition, final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K that we expect to file with the SEC within four business days of the Annual Meeting.

#### Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?
The accompanying proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board for use at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the Company will pay for the entire cost of soliciting proxies. In addition to these proxy materials, our directors and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone, or by other means of communication. Directors and employees of the Company will not be paid any additional compensation for soliciting proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms, banks and other nominees for the cost of forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners.

#### How can I access the list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?
A complete list of stockholders of record on the Record Date will be available by request to ir@cvrx.com for examination at our corporate offices by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting for a period of 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting.

------

#### What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?
If you receive more than one Notice, your shares may be registered in more than one name or in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Notice to ensure that all your shares are voted.

#### When are stockholder proposals for inclusion in our Proxy Statement for next year's annual meeting of stockholders due?
Stockholders wishing to present proposals for inclusion in our Proxy Statement for the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2027 Annual Meeting") pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), must submit their proposals so that they are received by us at our principal executive offices no later than December 21, 2026. Proposals should be sent to our Secretary at CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway, Suite 650, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55445.

#### When are other proposals and stockholder nominations for the 2027 Annual Meeting due?
With respect to proposals and nominations not to be included in our Proxy Statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, our Amended and Restated By-Laws (our "By-Laws") provide that stockholders who wish to nominate a director or propose other business to be brought before the stockholders at an annual meeting of stockholders must notify our Secretary by a written notice, which notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding year's annual meeting of stockholders.

Stockholders wishing to present nominations for director or proposals for consideration at the 2027 Annual Meeting under these provisions of our By-Laws must submit their nominations or proposals so that they are received at our principal executive offices not earlier than February 1, 2027 and not later than March 3, 2027 in order to be considered. In the event that the 2027 Annual Meeting is to be held on a date that is not within 30 days before or 60 days after the one-year anniversary of the Annual Meeting, then a stockholder's notice must be received by the Secretary no earlier than 120 days prior to such annual meeting and no later than 90 days prior to such annual meeting or, if the first public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is less than 100 days prior to such annual meeting, no later than the tenth day following the day on which we make a public announcement of the date of the 2027 Annual Meeting. In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board's nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than April 2, 2027.

Nominations or proposals should be sent in writing to our Secretary at CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway, Suite 650, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55445. A stockholder's notice to nominate a director or bring any other business before the Annual Meeting or the 2027 Annual Meeting must set forth certain information, which is specified in our By-Laws.

------

#### EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY EXPLANATORY NOTE
We completed our initial public offering in July 2021. We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the "JOBS Act").

For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies but not to "emerging growth companies," including, but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing
 additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We will be an emerging growth company until the last day of the fiscal year following July 2, 2026, the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1.235 billion, (ii) the date that we become a "large accelerated filer" as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur at the end of the fiscal year during which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three-year period. Accordingly, we expect to lose our emerging growth company status on December 31, 2026. Under Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies may delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies.

Because we have elected to take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

#### PROPOSAL NO. 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The Board is presently comprised of seven members. The Board is divided into three classes, designated as Class I, Class II and Class III. One class of directors is elected by the stockholders at each annual meeting. Each director elected at an annual meeting serves from the time of his or her election until the third annual meeting of stockholders following that election and until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified. Class II directors, with a term expiring at the Annual Meeting, consist of Messrs. Kevin Hykes and Joseph Slattery.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has recommended, and the Board has approved, increasing the number of directors that will constitute the Board as of the Annual Meeting to eight members. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has also recommended, and the Board has approved, the nomination of three Class II directors, Messrs. Dale, Hykes, and Slattery, for election for three-year terms expiring at the 2029 annual meeting of stockholders and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or, if sooner, until the director's death, resignation or removal. Messrs. Hykes and Slattery are each currently a director of the Company. Mr. Dale is not currently a director of the Company and is standing for election by stockholders at the Annual Meeting. In 2025, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee continued a process to identify an additional director candidate with relevant leadership experience to join the Board and retained a third-party search firm to assist in identifying and evaluating potential candidates. Mr. Dale was identified as a potential candidate for the Board through this process, having been identified as a potential candidate by the search firm, as well as our Chief Executive Officer and certain non-employee directors who knew him. Mr. Dale was evaluated by the search firm and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee amongst other potential candidates.

Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees named in this Proxy Statement. If any nominee should become unavailable to serve for any reason, it is intended that votes will be cast for a substitute nominee designated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and approved by the Board. We have no reason to believe that any nominee named will be unable to serve if elected.

#### Director Information
The names and ages of the nominees and continuing directors, and their length of service with the Company and Board committee memberships are set forth in the table below.

#### THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS

#### A VOTE IN FAVOR OF EACH OF THE THREE NAMED DIRECTOR NOMINEES.

------

#### CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
This section describes key corporate governance guidelines and practices that the Board has adopted, as well as additional information about the Board. Complete copies of our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the charters of the committees of the Board and the Company's Code of Ethics and Conduct, described below, can be found in the Corporate Governance section of the Investor Relations page of our website at ir.cvrx.com/investor-relations. Alternatively, you can request a copy of any of these documents free of charge by writing to our Secretary at CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway, Suite 650, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55445. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.

#### Board Composition
The Board currently consists of seven directors. In accordance with our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Board is divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms. At each annual meeting of stockholders, the directors will be elected to succeed the class of directors whose terms have expired. The current directors are divided among the three classes as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class I directors consist of Messrs. Ballinger and Hill, whose terms expire at the 2028 Annual Meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class II directors consist of Messrs. Hykes and Slattery, whose terms expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class III directors consist of Messrs. Jain and Nielsen, and Ms. Shadan, whose terms expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting.

Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective terms. Each director's term continues until the election and qualification of their successor, or their earlier death, resignation or removal.

#### Independence of the Board of Directors
The Board has affirmatively determined that all of the nominees and continuing directors, other than Mr. Hykes, are independent directors within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards and relevant securities and other laws, rules and regulations regarding the definition of "independent" (the "Independent Directors"). In making these determinations, the Board considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with the Company and all other facts and circumstances that the Board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and any transactions involving them described in the section titled "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions." There are no family relationships between any of the directors or executive officers.

#### Board Leadership Structure and Executive Sessions
The Board believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to allocate the responsibilities of the offices of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and/or to appoint an Independent Lead Director in any manner that it determines to be in the best interests of the Company at any point in time. The Board reviews its leadership structure periodically as part of its annual self-assessment process. In addition, the Board continues to monitor developments in corporate governance as well as the approaches our peers undertake. The Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that at any time when the Board is not led by an Independent Director serving as Chairman of the Board, the Independent Directors shall elect an Independent Director to serve as Lead Director.

Currently, there is not a Chairman of the Board; therefore, the Board has elected an Independent Lead Director. Mr. Slattery has served as our Independent Lead Director since February 2024. The Board believes that the current Board leadership structure, with Mr. Slattery currently serving as the Independent Lead Director and Mr. Hykes serving as the Chief Executive Officer, provides effective independent oversight of management. The Board's Independent Directors bring experience, oversight and expertise from outside of the Company, while Mr. Hykes brings Company-specific expertise and leadership.

As part of the Board's ongoing Board leadership succession planning, Mr. Slattery's term as Independent Lead Director will conclude at the Annual Meeting, and the Board appointed Mr. Ballinger to serve as independent Board Chair, effective at the Annual Meeting.

------

The Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the Board's Independent Directors will meet in executive session without non-Independent Directors or management present at most regularly scheduled Board meetings or more often as determined appropriate by the Independent Directors. The Board, including each of its committees, also has complete and open access to any member of the Company's management and the authority to retain independent advisors as the Board or any such committee deems appropriate. In addition, all members of the Audit Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Compensation Committee are Independent Directors, and the committee chairs have authority to hold executive sessions without management and non-Independent Directors present.

#### Role of the Board in Risk Oversight
The Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing the management of the Company's risks. The Board is responsible for general oversight of risks and regular review of information regarding our risks, including credit risks, liquidity risks and operational risks. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to accounting matters, financial reporting and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks associated with the independence of the Board and potential conflicts of interest. Although each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed through discussions from committee members about such risks. The Board also encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into the Company's corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations.

#### Meetings of the Board of Directors
The Board oversees the Company's business. It establishes overall policies and standards and reviews the performance of management. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Board held ten meetings. Each Board member attended 75% or more of the aggregate meetings of the Board and of the committees on which they served held during the period for which they were a director or committee member. The Company's directors are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders, but we do not currently have a policy relating to director attendance. Six of the seven then-serving directors attended the Company's 2025 annual meeting.

#### Committees of the Board of Directors
The Board has a number of committees that perform certain functions for the Board. The current standing committees of the Board are the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Below is a description of each committee of the Board. Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities.

*Audit Committee*

The Audit Committee oversees our corporate accounting and financial reporting process and assists the Board in its oversight of (i) the integrity of the Company's financial statements, (ii) the independent auditor's qualifications, independence and performance, (iii) the Company's internal control over financial reporting and (iv) the compliance by the Company with certain legal and regulatory requirements. During 2025, the Audit Committee met seven times.

The Audit Committee operates under a written charter and is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• appointing, compensating, retaining and overseeing the work of our independent auditor and any other registered public accounting firm engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or
 related work or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• discussing with our independent auditor any audit problems or difficulties and management's response;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pre-approving all audit and non-audit services provided to the Company by the independent auditor (other than those provided pursuant to appropriate preapproval policies established by the Audit Committee or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and discussing with management and our independent auditor financial statements and management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations to be included in the
 Company's annual and quarterly reports to be filed with the SEC;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and discussing with management the Company's policies, practices and risks related to information security and cybersecurity; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing matters, and for the confidential and anonymous
 submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

The Audit Committee consists of Messrs. Hill and Slattery and Ms. Shadan, with Mr. Hill serving as the committee chair, and the Board has affirmatively determined that each member meets the requirements for independence under the current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Mr. Slattery served as committee chair through the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and Mr. Hill assumed the committee chair role on February 14, 2026. In addition, the Board has determined that each of Messrs. Hill and Slattery is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate.

*Compensation Committee*

The Compensation Committee oversees the Company's compensation policies, plans and benefits programs. During 2025, the Compensation Committee met eight times.

The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter and is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives with respect to the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluating the Chief Executive Officer's performance in light of these goals and
 objectives and setting compensation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and setting or making recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of the Company's other executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and making recommendations to the Board regarding director compensation; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving or making recommendations to the Board regarding the Company's compensation plans, policies and programs.

The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Ballinger, Hill, Jain and Slattery, with Mr. Jain serving as the committee chair. The composition of the Compensation Committee meets the requirements for independence under the current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Each member of the Compensation Committee is a non-employee director, as defined in Section 16b-3 of the Exchange Act.

*Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee*

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees and assists the Board in reviewing and recommending director nominees. During 2025, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met five times.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee operates under a written charter and is responsible for, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board, consistent with criteria approved by the Board;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• recommending to the Board the nominees for election to the Board at annual meetings of the Company's stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing the self-evaluations of the Board and Board committees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing the Company's programs, policies and practices relating to corporate responsibility and sustainability, including environmental, social and governance matters; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• developing and recommending to the Board any proposed changes to the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines and principles.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consists of Messrs. Ballinger, Jain and Nielsen, with Mr. Nielsen serving as the committee chair. The composition of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets the requirements for independence under the current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations.

------

#### Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures
The implementation of the Company's compensation philosophy is carried out under the supervision of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee charter requires that the Compensation Committee meet as often as it determines is appropriate to carry out its responsibilities. The Compensation Committee also meets regularly in executive session. Members of the Company's management, in addition to the Compensation Committee's independent advisors, may attend portions of the Compensation Committee meetings for the purpose of providing analysis and information to assist in making recommendations on various compensation matters. However, the Company's management does not participate in executive sessions of the Compensation Committee.

In 2025, the Compensation Committee continued to engage Aon as an independent advisor to the Compensation Committee. Aon conducted an analysis and provided advice on, among other things, the appropriate amounts and forms of compensation for our executive officers, including compensation decisions related to our Chief Executive Officer transition. For 2025, the Compensation Committee approved, with input from Aon, a peer group of comparable public companies, and Aon provided compensation information for those companies. The Compensation Committee considered this report when making its determinations regarding executive compensation for 2025.

The Compensation Committee, taking into account the various factors prescribed by Nasdaq regarding the independence of compensation consultants, has confirmed the independence of Aon as a compensation advisor and determined that retaining Aon does not result in any conflict of interest.

#### Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Process and Procedures
In connection with its nomination of directors for election or re-election at the Annual Meeting and periodically throughout the year, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers the composition of the Board and each Board committee to evaluate their effectiveness and whether changes should be considered. In support of this process, the Board has determined that the Board as a whole must have the right diversity, mix of characteristics and skills for the optimal functioning of the Board in its oversight of the Company. The Board considers the following factors and qualifications, without limitation, in the context of the Board as a whole, with the objective of recommending a group that can best perpetuate the success of the business and represent stockholder interests through the exercise of sound judgment using its diversity of experience in these various areas:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• personal and professional integrity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• ethics and values;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• experience in corporate management, such as serving as an officer or former officer of a publicly held company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• experience in the industries in which the Company competes;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• experience as a board member or executive officer of another publicly held company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• diversity;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• conflicts of interest; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• practical and mature business judgment.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee periodically reviews the composition of the Board in light of then-current challenges and needs of the Board and the Company and determines whether it may be appropriate to add or remove individuals after considering issues of judgment, diversity, skills, background and experience. Although the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy regarding diversity on the Board, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is sensitive to the importance of nominating persons with different perspectives, backgrounds and experience to enhance the deliberation and decision-making processes of the Board.

All of the Class II director nominees have been recommended to the Board by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for election as directors at the Annual Meeting, and the Board has approved such recommendations.

------

#### Stockholder Recommendations to the Board of Directors
Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration as potential director candidates may submit the names of the recommended individuals, together with appropriate biographical information and background materials, to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Secretary, CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway Avenue, Suite 650, Minneapolis, MN 55445. In the event there is a vacancy, and assuming that appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others.

#### Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors
The Board's relationship with the Company's stockholders is an important part of the Company's corporate governance program. Engaging with the Company's stockholders helps the Board to understand how stockholders view the Company, to set goals and expectations for the Company's performance and to identify emerging issues that may affect the Company's strategies, corporate governance, compensation practices or other aspects of its operations. Stockholder and investor outreach includes investor road shows, analyst meetings and investor conferences and meetings. The Board also communicates with stockholders and other stakeholders through various media, including the Company's annual report and SEC filings, proxy statement, news releases and website. The Company's conference calls on quarterly earnings releases are open to all. These calls are available in real time and as archived webcasts on the Company's website for a period of time.

The Board has a process for stockholders and others to send communications to the Board or any director. All such communications should be sent by mail addressed to the Board or any particular director at c/o Secretary, CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway Avenue, Suite 650, Minneapolis, MN 55445. All appropriate communications received by the Company's Secretary will be sent directly to the Board or to the particular director.

#### Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
The Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all employees, officers and directors, including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other executive and senior financial officers. The full text of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available in the Documents and Charters section of the Investor Relations page of our website at ir.cvrx.com/investor-relations. Information on or accessible through our website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement. The Company intends to disclose future amendments or waivers to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on its website or in public filings.

#### Insider Trading Policy, Including Anti-Hedging and Anti-Pledging Policy
The Board has adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale and other dispositions of the Company's stock that applies to all employees, officers and directors. The Company believes the policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations and Nasdaq listing standards. Under this policy, all employees, officers and directors and their family members are prohibited from trading in the Company's stock when they have material, nonpublic information about the Company, and it also prohibits disclosing (or "tipping") such information. The policy also imposes certain quarterly trading window restrictions and pre-clearance requirements. The policy also requires the Company to comply with insider trading rules when effecting transactions in its stock.

The policy also prohibits short-sales, transactions in put or call options or other derivative transactions, hedging transactions or other inherently speculative transactions in CVRx stock or pledging CVRx stock in any circumstance, including by purchasing CVRx stock on margin or holding CVRx stock in a margin account. With respect to the prohibition on hedging, the policy prohibits the purchase of any financial instrument, including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, zero cost collars and exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of CVRx stock; however, it does not prohibit participation in general portfolio diversification or investing in broad-based exchange funds.

------

#### DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
The directors play a critical role in guiding the Company's strategic direction and in overseeing the Company's management. The many responsibilities and risks and the substantial time commitment of being a director require that the Company provide adequate compensation commensurate with the directors' workload and opportunity costs. Non-employee directors receive a combination of annual cash retainers and annual grants of stock options.

Compensation of our non-employee directors is reviewed and determined by the Board on an annual basis. The annual cash retainers and equity compensation for non-employee directors who serve during only a portion of a fiscal year is pro-rated. The Board reviewed our non-employee director compensation, including market data provided by Aon, and determined to make no changes to the compensation program for 2025. However, in recognition of the Company's stock price volatility, the Board determined that each director's annual stock option grant would be capped at 0.075% of our common stock issued and outstanding on the date of grant, which limit impacted the number of stock options granted in 2025 and reduced the actual grant date value of stock options granted to each director to $105,492, as opposed to the $130,000 value reflected below.

#### PROPOSAL NO. 2: RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF THE

#### INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Audit Committee has appointed Grant Thornton as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, and the Board is submitting this appointment to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Grant Thornton has served as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm since 2016. Representatives of Grant Thornton plan to attend the Annual Meeting and will be available to answer appropriate questions from stockholders. They will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so.

Neither our By-Laws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Board is submitting the appointment of Grant Thornton to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to retain Grant Thornton. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interest of the Company and its stockholders.

**THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF GRANT THORNTON AS THE COMPANY'S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2026.**

As set forth in the Audit Committee Charter, the Audit Committee pre-approves the scope of the audit, audit-related and tax services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, as well as all associated fees and terms, pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee evaluates the independent registered public accounting firm's qualifications, performance and independence, and presents its conclusions to the full Board on at least an annual basis.

All the services provided by Grant Thornton during 2025, and fees for such services, were pre-approved by the Audit Committee in accordance with these standards.

#### Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
The Audit Committee reviews the Company's financial reporting process on behalf of the Board. The Company's management has the primary responsibility for the preparation and integrity of the consolidated financial statements and the reporting process, including establishing and monitoring the system of internal financial controls. In this context, during fiscal year 2025, the Audit Committee met and held discussions with management and Grant Thornton, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. The Company's management has represented to the Audit Committee that the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements of the Company with management of the Company and with Grant Thornton.

In addition, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with Grant Thornton: (i) the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the "PCAOB"), and the SEC; and (ii) the written disclosures and the letter received from Grant Thornton required by applicable requirements of PCAOB regarding Grant Thornton's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and the independence of Grant Thornton from the Company and its management.

Based on the review and discussion referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 for filing with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors:

*2025 Annual Incentive Awards*

Our NEOs are eligible to receive a cash payment based on our achievement of certain financial and individual performance goals. Our NEO's and the Company's performance determine the amount, if any, of awards earned. Such awards are based on performance relative to the established targets, which are established annually by the Compensation Committee.

The Compensation Committee determined that the annual incentive opportunity for our NEOs in 2025 would be based on the Company's achievement of revenue and operational goals, including total revenue, U.S. revenue, modified operating loss, and key operating objectives. The weightings of the goals varied among our NEOs as reflected below:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  **Metric** | **Mr. Hykes** | **Mr. John** | **Mr. Adamson** |
|  Total revenue | 60% | 0% | 60% |
|  U.S. revenue | 0% | 100% | 0% |
|  Modified operating loss | 20% | 0% | 20% |
|  Key operating objectives | 20% | 0% | 20% |

---

Achievement against the stated goals is determined annually, with no minimum or maximum specified for the portion of the target incentive amount attributed to financial objectives and payouts for the portion of the target incentive amount attributed to the key operating objectives ranging from 0% to 125% of target. The annual target incentive opportunities (expressed as a percentage of base salary) for 2025 for our NEOs were as follows, and, for the sake of clarity, our NEOs can earn more or less than target based on the achievement of the respective goals:

The actual 2025 annual cash incentive award amounts that were paid in 2025 are included in the Summary Compensation Table in the column entitled "Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation."

*2025 Stock Option Grants and RSUs*

Prior to 2025, the Company delivered the full value of long-term incentives for NEOs in the form of stock options. In 2025, the Company introduced RSUs, with long-term incentive values weighted approximately 50% in the form of stock options and 50% in the form of RSUs, with stock options weighted 1.5 times to each RSU. All of the stock options vest as to 25% of the shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and as to 1/48th of the shares each month thereafter. All of the RSUs vest as to 25% of the shares on each annual anniversary of the date of grant. Each NEO's unvested stock options and RSUs generally terminate on his or her termination of employment for any reason, except that if the NEO's employment is terminated by the NEO due to Constructive Discharge or by us for any reason other than for Cause during the three months preceding or the eighteen months after a Change in Control, the unvested portion of the stock options or RSUs, as applicable, will vest. For these purposes, Constructive Discharge and Cause are defined in the applicable award agreement and are consistent with the same terms included in executive employment agreements as described under "Employment Agreements" below.

#### Other Elements of Compensation
*401(k) Plan*

The Company currently maintains a 401(k)-retirement savings plan (the "401(k) Plan") for employees who satisfy certain eligibility requirements, including our NEOs. The Internal Revenue Code allows eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation, within prescribed limits, on a pre-tax basis through contributions to the 401(k) Plan. The Company believes that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings through the 401(k) Plan adds to the overall desirability of our executive compensation package. In 2025 and 2024, we matched 100% of the first 4% of each participant's contributions.

*Other Employee Benefits and Perquisites*

All of our full-time U.S.-based employees, including our NEOs, are eligible to participate in our health and welfare plans, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• medical, dental and vision benefits;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• medical and dependent care flexible spending accounts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• short-term and long-term disability insurance; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• life insurance.

The Company provides the statutorily required, country-specific health and welfare benefits to our European-based employees.

#### Employment Agreements
The Company has entered into an employment agreement with each of our NEOs. Each employment agreement sets forth an initial annual base salary and target bonus for the NEO and provides that the NEO's future compensation will be determined annually by the Compensation Committee. Each NEO's employment is terminable at will, provided that, 30 days' advance notice must be provided in the event of a termination of the NEO's employment without Cause or in the event of the NEO's termination of employment due to resignation or Constructive Discharge. The terms "Cause" and "Constructive Discharge" are defined below.

Except as provided below, in the event of the NEO's termination of employment without Cause or due to Constructive Discharge, the employment agreements provide for the NEO to receive continued payments of base salary for 12 months and reimbursement of medical insurance premiums for a period of 12 months.

------

In the event of the NEO's termination of employment without Cause or due to Constructive Discharge during the protection period, which is the period commencing three months preceding a Change in Control of the Company and ending 18 months following a Change in Control of the Company, the employment agreements provide for the NEO to receive a lump sum payment of 18 months' base salary in the case of the CEO, 12 months' base salary in the case of the other NEOs, a lump sum payment of 150% of the current year's target annual bonus in the case of the CEO, 100% of the current year's target annual bonus in the case of the other NEOs and reimbursement of medical insurance premiums for a period of 18 months in the case of the CEO and 12 months in the case of the other NEOs. If there is no target bonus for the applicable NEO for the year of termination, the payment will be based on the average of the actual bonus paid to the executive in the three years preceding the termination. For these purposes, a Change in Control of the Company is defined substantially the same as in the 2021 Plan.

As defined in the employment agreements, "Constructive Discharge" generally means (i) without the NEO's consent, the assignment of the NEO to employment responsibilities or duties which are of materially lesser status and degree of responsibility than the NEO's position, responsibilities or duties on the date when the NEO commenced employment; (ii) without the NEO's consent, the requirement that the NEO be based anywhere other than within 100 miles in the case of the CEO (50 miles in the case of the other NEOs) of the NEO's then-current primary residence in the case of the CEO and our office location on the date the NEO commenced employment in the case of the other NEOs; and (iii) a material reduction in the NEO's total compensation, including any bonus for which he is eligible, other than a reduction in compensation that is part of a general reduction in compensation for the Company's senior management.

As defined in the employment agreements, "Cause" generally means the NEO's (i) material breach of the NEO's proprietary information and noncompetition agreement with the Company; (ii) willful and reckless job-related material misconduct, including material failure to perform the NEO's duties as an officer or employee; (iii) commission of fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement in connection with the Company's business; (iv) conviction of, or plea of nolo contendere to, criminal misconduct (excluding parking violations, occasional minor traffic violations, or similar infractions); or (v) established use of narcotics, liquor or illicit drugs having a detrimental effect on the performance of the NEO's employment responsibilities.

#### Employment Agreement with Mr. Hykes
In connection with the appointment of Mr. Hykes as President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Hykes with substantially the same terms described above. The employment agreement provides the following compensation for Mr. Hykes: (i) annual base salary of $640,000; (ii) target annual cash incentive of 75% of base salary (with the payout for 2024 prorated for the portion of the year during which Mr. Hykes serves as CEO); (iii) stock options to purchase 360,000 shares of the Company's common stock upon the commencement of Mr. Hykes' employment; and (iv) a cash sign-on bonus of $150,000 that was subject to repayment if Mr. Hykes' employment was terminated by the Company for cause or if Mr. Hykes resigned other than for constructive discharge during the first year of his employment, which condition has now lapsed. The initial grant of stock options vests as to 25% of the shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and in successive equal monthly installments over the subsequent three years, subject to continued employment with the Company and the terms and conditions in the stock option agreement, and, in addition to the Company's standard vesting terms, provide for continued vesting of the stock options in the event Mr. Hykes' employment is terminated by the Company without cause within the first two years following the grant date, subject to compliance with certain covenants.

#### Equity Award Agreements
Stock options and RSUs granted by the Company generally provide for acceleration of vesting upon the death or disability of the NEO. In addition, for stock options granted to NEOs on or after June 29, 2021, and for RSUs, the awards will vest in the event of the NEO's termination of employment without Cause or due to Constructive Discharge during the protection period in connection with a Change in Control of the Company.

#### Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Equity Awards
The Company does not have any formal policy that requires it to grant, or avoid granting, equity awards to the executive officers at certain times. Historically, the Compensation Committee has granted equity awards, in the form of stock options, in connection with annual compensation decisions at its first regular meeting of the year, and awards for newly hired executive officers were made at a regular meeting or, when appropriate, in connection with the hire of an executive officer. Commencing in 2025, the Company granted, and expects to continue to grant, annual equity awards on the last business day of February, which will generally occur after the Company has released its financial results and filed the related Annual Report on Form 10-K for the most recently completed fiscal year. As a result, in all cases, the timing of the grant of stock options, has occurred, and will occur, independent of the release of any material, nonpublic information, and the Company does not time the disclosure of material, nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value or exercise price of stock options.

 to the lesser of (a) 5% of the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding on the last day of the calendar month before the date of each automatic increase, or (b) such lesser number of shares as determined by the Board. The
 number of shares available for issuance under our ESPP increases automatically on January 1 of each calendar year of the Company beginning January 1, 2022 and ending on and including January 1, 2031, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i)
 1% of the total number of shares outstanding as of December 31 of the immediately preceding calendar year, or (ii) such lesser number of shares determined by the Board.

#### CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

#### Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions
The Board has adopted a written related person transaction policy setting forth the policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions. This policy covers, with certain exceptions set forth in Item 404 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act, any transaction, arrangement or relationship, or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, in which we were or are to be a participant, where the amount involved exceeds $120,000 in any fiscal year and a related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest, including without limitation, purchases of goods or services by or from the related person or entities in which the related person has a material interest, indebtedness, guarantees of indebtedness and employment by us of a related person. In reviewing and approving any such transactions, the Audit Committee is tasked to consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including but not limited to, whether the transaction is on terms comparable to those that could be obtained in an arm's length transaction and the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction. All the transactions described in this section occurred prior to the adoption of this policy but are reviewed on a regular basis by the Audit Committee.

------

#### Related Party Transactions
The following is a description of transactions to which we were a party since January 1, 2024 in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000, and in which any of our executive officers, directors or holders of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

*Investors' Rights Agreement*

The Company entered into the eighth amended and restated investors' rights agreement (the "Investors' Rights Agreement") with the holders of the Company's outstanding convertible preferred stock, including entities with which certain of its directors are affiliated, and certain holders of common stock. Pursuant to the Investors' Rights Agreement, the parties thereto, which include certain of our directors and executive officers, and entities affiliated therewith, are entitled to rights with respect to the registration of their shares of the Company's common stock under the Securities Act. The Investors' Rights Agreement expired by its terms in 2025.

#### HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (*e.g*., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for Notice or other proxy materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice or other proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as householding, potentially provides extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards.

A Notice or proxy materials will be delivered in one single envelope to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from one or more of the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be householding communications to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent with your broker. Upon written request to Secretary, CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway Avenue, Suite 650, Minneapolis, MN 55445, or by telephone at (763) 416-2840, the Company will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice and, if applicable, proxy materials to any stockholder at a shared address to which it delivered a single copy of any of these materials. To receive a separate copy, or, if a stockholder or stockholders sharing the same address are receiving multiple copies, to request that the Company only send a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, our proxy materials, please contact your broker if you are a beneficial holder through a broker, or, if you are a registered holder, contact our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC.

#### OTHER MATTERS
The Board knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote on such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

**A copy of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on February 13, 2026, is available without charge upon written request to Investor Relations, CVRx, Inc., 9201 West Broadway Avenue, Suite 650, Minneapolis, MN 55445 or by accessing a copy on the Company's website at ir.cvrx.com/investor-relations in the Investors section under "Financial Information." Information on or accessible through the Company's website is not incorporated by reference in this Proxy Statement.**
