What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- International commercialization momentum: “Sales activities for LockeT outside of the United States are increasing… CE Mark approval… generated interest in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, UK, and South Africa” with five South Africa reorders .
- VIVO adoption and European entry: “Sales activity for VIVO is… gaining traction outside the US… first purchase order from France in October” .
- Clinical validation: Q3 press highlighted EP Lab Digest coverage of LockeT’s economic benefits; prior quarter showcased multi‑center VIVO accuracy >94% and long‑term outcomes, plus LockeT safety/effectiveness in large‑bore procedures .
What Went Wrong
- Liquidity risk: Management disclosed substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months without new financing .
- Heavy royalty burden: Fair‑value royalties payable increased materially in 2025; though Q3 saw a positive revaluation, cumulative obligations remain large (LockeT royalty payable $11.317M at Q3) .
- Continued operating losses: Operating loss was $(3.021)M in Q3 and $(4.686)M in Q2 reflecting early‑stage scale and investment, with EBIT margins deeply negative .

Estimates Context

Key Takeaways for Investors
- Traction inflecting internationally: CE Mark/UK approval catalyzed early reorder behavior and first France orders; watch EU/UK distributor ramp and reorder velocity as leading indicators .
- High gross margins (~92–93%) on a small revenue base suggest product economics are favorable; scale is key to narrowing operating losses over the next 12 months .
- Liquidity is the gating factor: management disclosed substantial doubt about going concern absent financing; monitor ATM/PIPE usage, cash burn, and royalty cash obligations .
- Royalty structure is material: sizable fair‑value royalties payable tied to LockeT and inventor agreements represent ongoing economic headwinds despite Q3 revaluation benefit .
- Clinical/commercial catalysts: additional VIVO/LockeT studies and EU launches can drive adoption; track publications, new accounts, and geography expansion (France, South Africa, broader EU) .
- No numeric guidance and no call transcript: trading may react to incremental commercialization updates and financing newsflow rather than formal targets .
- Strategy optionality (subsidiaries/IP): Cardionomix (CPNS) and KardioNav initiatives add medium‑term optionality but will require funding; near‑term P&L remains driven by VIVO/LockeT .
