CARMAT Announces Being in a Critical Financial Situation and at Risk of Insolvency as of End-June 2025
PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News: CARMAT (FR0010907956, ALCAR), designer and developer of the world's most advanced total artificial heart, aiming to provide a therapeutic alternative for people suffering from advanced biventricular heart failure (the ' Company ' or ' CARMAT '), today announces being in a critical financial situation and at risk of insolvency as early as the end of June 2025. Critical financial situation and risk of insolvency at the end of June 2025 When reporting its full-year 2024 results (press release dated April 29, 2025), on April 29, 2025, the Company had indicated that it was funded until mid-June 2025 and actively working on financing options to secure, in the short term, the resources needed to continue its operations beyond that date. Despite all its efforts, in a very challenging funding environment—particularly for small and mid-cap companies—the Company has not, to date, been able to secure such financing and will be in a situation of insolvency at the end of June 2025 unless it manages, before then, to secure additional cash of at least €3.5 million. More generally, based on its current business plan, the Company estimates its 12-month financial needs at approximately €35 million, including around €20 million by end-December 2025 (broken down into €8 million by end-July, an additional €4 million by end-September, and a further €8 million by end-December 2025). Next steps and launch of a donation campaign CARMAT continues to actively explore all financing options to ensure business continuity beyond June 2025. In parallel to this, the Company is today launching a donation campaign through an online platform, which is the subject of a separate press release (link to the press release). Press releases will be issued regularly to keep shareholders and the financial community informed of any developments regarding the Company's financial situation.

CARMAT Announces Its 2024 Annual Results
PARIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News: CARMAT (FR0010907956, ALCAR), designer and developer of the world's most advanced total artificial heart, aiming to provide a therapeutic alternative for people suffering from advanced biventricular heart failure (the ' Company ' or ' CARMAT '), today announces its annual results for the year ending December 31, 2024 1. 2024 annual results Revenues of €7.0 million, corresponded to the sale of 17 Aeson® artificial hearts for commercial implants (Germany, Italy, Spain, and Poland) and to the sale of 25 Aeson® artificial hearts in the EFICAS clinical trial in France. As a result of a tight cost control, the operating loss for 2024 was contained at €49.2 million, showing a slight improvement over the prior year (-€52.5 million). In 2024, CARMAT has dedicated most of its efforts and resources to: - commercial development in Europe; - pursuing the EFICAS clinical study in France; - implementing actions required to resume the Early Feasibility Study (EFS) in the United States; - strengthening and optimizing its supply chain; - reinforcing its financial structure. Taking into account net financial expense (-€3.2 million), non-recurring items (-€0.6 million), and research tax credit (+€1.7 million), the net loss for 2024 stood at €51.4 million, improving by €2.5 million compared to 2023. For 2024 key developments, readers are kindly invited to refer to the dedicated press release issued on January 8, 2025, and to subsequent press releases available on the Company's website: Cash position and financial structure Cash and cash runway As of December 31, 2024, CARMAT's cash position stood at €4.7 million (vs. €8.0 million at end 2023), reflecting the following cash flows: The Company reduced its combined operating and investing cash burn by 23% in 2024 (-€13.7 million vs. 2023). This translated into monthly cash burn of €3.7 million in 2024, compared to €4.9 million per month in 2023. In terms of financing in 2024, the Company: - carried out three capital increases for a total gross amount of €42.8 million (€16.5 million in January, €16.0 million in May, and €10.3 million in September); - received the final €0.3 million tranche of a €1.4 million grant (CAP23) awarded to CARMAT under the 'Plan de Relance pour l'industrie – Secteurs Stratégiques' call for projects; - secured €2.5 million via the equity financing line signed on July 5, 2024 with Vester Finance; - paid €0.7 million in interest due on its loans (EIB loan and government-backed loans), or 'PGEs'). In addition, the Company raised a further €9.7 million 2 in gross proceeds post-year-end, on January 31, 2025. On March 26, 2025, CARMAT also signed a new equity financing line with IRIS Capital Investment ("IRIS") for a maximum of 9,000,000 shares (approximately 15% of its capital) over 24 months 3. Based on these developments, the Company believes that its available secured financial resources should allow it to fund its operations until mid-June 2025, under its current business plan. Net financial debt On March 22, 2024, the Company reached an agreement with all its financial creditors (European Investment Bank 'EIB', BNP Paribas 'BNPP', and Bpifrance 'BPI') on new loan repayment terms 4. As a result of this agreement, CARMAT's net financial debt stood at €53.1 million at December 31, 2024, broken down as follows: * Due within 12 months Expand The Company's financial liabilities include: - outstanding principal and accrued interest on the EIB loan for a total of €24.8 million 5; - outstanding principal and accrued interest on the two PGEs (government-backed loans) for a total of €9.5 million; 6 - as well as accrued interest on repayable advances: €9.9 million from Bpifrance, and €0.1 million from the 'France 2030' plan. Short-term financial liabilities mainly relate to repayments due under the PGEs in 2025. * ** The 2024 financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on April 25, 2025, on a going concern basis. Audit procedures by the Company's statutory auditor have been completed and his report is in the process of being issued. The Company expects to publish its 2024 Universal Registration Document (including the annual financial report) as soon as the audit report is received, anticipated by no later than April 30, 2025. As of the date of this press release, available cash and cash equivalents are not sufficient to fund CARMAT's operations over the next 12 months. Based on its current business plan, the Company estimates its cash runway to mid-June 2025, with 12-month funding needs of approximately €35 million. CARMAT is actively exploring various financing options to secure the resources required to continue its activities beyond June 2025. More specifically, the Company believes—based on its current discussions with potential investors—that it should be in a position to carry out a new capital increase by mid-June 2025, extending its cash runway by several months. CARMAT believes that its recent progress (2.5-fold increase in sales between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025, imminent completion of EFICAS patient enrolment, conditional FDA approval in April 2025 to initiate the second EFS cohort in the U.S., and recent peer-reviewed scientific publications) should facilitate this operation. However, the Company cannot guarantee that the necessary financing will be secured. This creates a significant degree of uncertainty that could impact the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If CARMAT is unable to obtain the required funding, applying standard French accounting rules and assumptions for going concern may no longer be appropriate for valuing its assets and liabilities. *** About CARMAT CARMAT is a French MedTech that designs, manufactures and markets the Aeson ® artificial heart.
