Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
|
On May 4, 2026, Pulse Biosciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), announced certain financial and operational results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2026. A copy of the Company’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by this reference. This information, as well as Exhibit 99.1, is intended to be furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), nor incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
While the Company has not finalized its full financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company expects to report that it had approximately $68.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $0.2 million in net accounts receivable as of March 31, 2026, with net cash used in operating activities of approximately $14.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. In addition, the Company expects to report that for the three months ended March 31, 2026, it generated a total of approximately $0.4 million in product revenue, incurred cost of product revenue of approximately $0.4 million, research and development costs of approximately $12.6 million, and selling, general and administrative costs of approximately $6.6 million. Overall, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company expects to report a net loss of approximately $18.6 million.
These amounts are preliminary, have not been audited and are subject to completion of the Company’s financial closing procedures. Neither the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm nor any other publicly registered accounting firm has audited, reviewed or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary information and, accordingly, no firm has expressed an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. Consequently, these amounts may differ materially from the amounts that will be reflected in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2026.
On May 4, 2026, Pulse Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) announced accelerated enrollment timelines in its NANOPULSE-AF clinical trial. The NANOPULSE-AF trial is a prospective, multicenter, pivotal, clinical investigation currently evaluating the Company’s nPulse™ Cardiac Catheter System for treating recurrent, drug-resistant, symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (“AF”). The Company plans to enroll approximately 215 participants in this study, across multiple clinical sites, and expects the primary endpoints will be assessed at 6 and 12 months post-ablation to measure procedural success and safety outcomes.
The Company now expects to complete enrollment in its NANOCLAMP-AF clinical trial by the end of the first half of 2027. The NANOCLAMP-AF trial is a single-arm, prospective multicenter study designed to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the nPulse Cardiac Surgical System for the treatment of AF in concomitant surgical procedures. Multiple sites, including two outside the United States, are planned for patient enrollment.
The information contained in paragraphs two and three of Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.
