Chairman's Statement: Foundations for a Pivotal Year
In 2025, Ondine Biomedical continued to advance its long-term strategy of
redefining infection prevention through non-antibiotic solutions.
Healthcare-associated infections remain one of the most persistent and costly
challenges facing global healthcare systems, compounded by the accelerating
impact of antimicrobial resistance. Against this backdrop, the need for
effective, scalable alternatives to traditional approaches has never been
greater.
Ondine is focused on establishing photodisinfection as a foundational
technology in infection prevention. Our light-activated,
non-resistance-forming approach is designed to align with the evolving
priorities of healthcare systems worldwide - improving patient outcomes,
increasing surgical capacity, and reducing the economic burden associated with
avoidable infections. This positions the Company at the intersection of two
powerful drivers of change: the global response to antimicrobial resistance
and the growing demand for more efficient, outcome-focused care delivery.
Over the past year, we have continued to build the clinical, regulatory, and
commercial foundations necessary to support long-term growth. Our strategy is
centred on generating high-quality evidence, engaging with leading
institutions, and advancing regulatory pathways in key markets, particularly
the United States. At the same time, we are expanding awareness and acceptance
of photodisinfection through scientific and clinical engagement, with
increasing recognition of its role within modern infection control protocols.
A central pillar of this strategy is the LANTERN Phase 3 pivotal study,
conducted across 18 hospitals in two countries and involving more than 5,000
patients. This landmark trial, supported by HCA Healthcare and delivered in
partnership with its expert research team, represents a defining moment for
the Company. As the world's first nasal photodisinfection-based crossover
study, it has been designed to provide the level of evidence required to
support regulatory approval and broad clinical adoption in the United States.
With top-line results anticipated in Spring 2026, we are focused on the next
phase of our development, including preparation for FDA submission and
subsequent commercial expansion. We believe successful completion of this
process will not only enable entry into the U.S. market but also serve as a
catalyst for wider global adoption and the continued development of Ondine's
broader pipeline of photodisinfection applications.
Looking ahead, our priority is to translate our clinical progress into
sustainable commercial growth. This includes deepening partnerships with
healthcare providers, demonstrating economic value at scale, and ensuring that
our technology can be readily integrated into standard clinical practice. As
healthcare systems continue to seek solutions that address both clinical
outcomes and cost pressures, we are confident that Ondine is well positioned
to play a meaningful role in shaping the future of infection prevention.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank our management team, partners,
and shareholders for their continued commitment and support as we build the
foundations for long-term success.
The Honourable Jean Charest
Chairman
4 June 2026
CEO Statement: Preparing for Global Impact
In 2025, Ondine Biomedical maintained a disciplined focus on execution, with a
clear objective: to translate our technology and clinical progress into a
scalable, high-impact business. We concentrated our efforts on building the
clinical and regulatory foundations necessary for U.S. market entry, while at
the same time shaping a commercial model designed for sustainable growth and
broad adoption.
Healthcare-associated infections remain a major driver of cost and capacity
constraints for health systems, with billions of dollars spent each year on
preventable complications and their consequences. Each surgery has an embedded
"infection tax" of up to $1,000 before lost surgical capacity and quality of
life considerations are quantified. Alongside clinical data, we are generating
health economic evidence to quantify the potential cost, capacity and patient
outcome benefits of nasal photodisinfection compared with current standard of
care.
As antimicrobial resistance continues to erode the effectiveness of
traditional antibiotics, providers are actively seeking practical,
non-antibiotic solutions that can improve outcomes, protect capacity, and
support more efficient care delivery. Ondine's photodisinfection platform
addresses this need through a light-activated antimicrobial approach that does
not rely on antibiotics or generate resistance and can be integrated at
critical points in the patient journey. Our real-world results suggest that
nasal photodisinfection offers improved outcomes for both patients and
healthcare systems.
Our central operational priority in 2025 was the successful execution of the
LANTERN Phase 3 pivotal trial, which underpins our U.S. regulatory strategy.
Conducted across 18 hospitals in two countries and involving more than 5,000
patients, LANTERN represents the most significant clinical investment in the
Company's history. We are deeply grateful to HCA Healthcare and its clinical
research group, HRI, for their leadership, expertise, and commitment in
managing this large-scale, complex study. We would also like to thank the
experienced research teams at the four Canadian hospitals who supported our
trial with their expertise and their patient access as well as healthcare
system and population diversity. This collaboration has been instrumental in
bringing the LANTERN trial to completion.
With top-line LANTERN results anticipated in Spring 2026, our focus is now on
ensuring that we are ready to move decisively once data are available. This
includes completing the clinical study report, finalising the remaining
components of our planned New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration, and aligning our organisation and resources around a clear
path to launch, subject to regulatory approval.
In parallel with LANTERN, we continued to broaden the clinical and commercial
footprint of Steriwave. Pilot programmes and evaluations across multiple key
geographies and care settings are being undertaken selectively to build the
right partnerships. Spanning new surgical and distribution pathways as well as
early work in high-risk environments such as intensive care, these pilots
support our land-and-expand strategy. With this approach, we are integrating
direct experience and real-world knowledge to optimise our commercial
strategies.
The intensive care unit (ICU) will be an important market for nasal
photodisinfection given the 12-15% infection rates in these fragile patients.
In 2025, the AIM Royal Columbian Hospital research group successfully
conducted and completed the world's first clinical study of nasal
photodisinfection in the ICU. This investigator-initiated pilot study
demonstrated patient safety and the feasibility of integrating Steriwave into
ICU workflows and generated strong evidence of nasal pathogen reduction in
critically ill patients, confirming our belief that nasal photodisinfection
can significantly improve outcomes in the ICU. The study, now published in
Critical Care, also showed an observed reduction in hospital-acquired
pneumonia, a leading cause of morbidity, mortality, and cost in critical care
settings.
With an expanding set of indications in mind, we deliberately target leading
institutions and specific high-value use cases where the clinical and economic
impact of infection prevention is most visible. Over time, we work to expand
utilisation across additional departments, procedures, and indications as
confidence and experience grow. In this way, we hope to expand the network of
photodisinfection users to build awareness and regional endorsement.
This pilot-driven approach serves several purposes. It generates real-world
evidence that complements our clinical trial data, building confidence among
clinicians and administrators. It deepens relationships with hospital
partners, creating internal advocates who understand both the clinical impact
and operational practicality of photodisinfection. This also establishes
initial commercial beachheads from which we can grow sales as health systems
see the benefits in reduced complications, increased throughput, and more
efficient use of existing infrastructure.
To support this strategy, we have continued to strengthen our operational
capabilities. Investments in manufacturing and supply, including enhanced
control over key components of our photosensitizer delivery, are intended to
support reliable scaling as demand grows. At the same time, we are refining a
service-led commercial model that simplifies hospital adoption, emphasising
integration into existing workflows, staff training, and data-driven
demonstration of value, as we prepare for broader rollout.
While our current installed base and revenue remain at an early-stage relative
to the scale of the opportunity, there is significant potential for long-term
growth if clinical, regulatory and commercial milestones continue to be
achieved. More than 300 million surgical procedures are performed each year
worldwide, and infection prevention is an increasingly strategic priority for
health systems working to manage cost, capacity, and risk. We believe that a
combination of strong clinical data, compelling real-world evidence, and a
targeted land-and-expand commercial strategy leveraging our existing hospital
and healthcare system relationships can position Ondine to capture a
meaningful share of this large and growing market over time. Success with the
first photodisinfection application will help to accelerate the
commercialization of our other treatment and prevention products in our
pipeline.
Looking ahead, 2026 is expected to be a defining year for the Company. Our
priorities are clear: deliver the LANTERN clinical results, advance our FDA
submission, and build up the operational and commercial capabilities required
for launch and subsequent scale-up. We remain committed to disciplined capital
allocation, evidence-led decision-making, and a sharp focus on execution.
We would like to thank our dedicated employees and consultants, our numerous
clinical partners, and our loyal shareholders for their continued trust and
support of our efforts to bring our lifesaving technologies to global
healthcare systems. We remain focused on translating our scientific and
clinical progress into durable, long-term value for all stakeholders.

Our Strategy: Unlocking the Full Potential of Our Proprietary Platform
Foundations for scalable growth
Ondine's strategy is focused on realising the full potential of its
proprietary photodisinfection platform across global healthcare markets,
starting with Steriwave. Steriwave serves as a strategic entry point into
healthcare systems, creating opportunities to expand into additional
indications, departments, and future platform applications.
In 2025, we made a deliberate decision to prioritise clinical evidence
generation to strengthen the foundation for continued adoption and future
expansion, while maintaining targeted commercial activity. This included
investment in the LANTERN Phase 3 study, the first ICU feasibility study of
Steriwave, and collaborations with leading health care institutions to
generate real-world clinical and health economic evidence.
Together, these initiatives strengthened Ondine's clinical, commercial and
operational foundations. They support the Company's land-and-expand strategy,
help build confidence among clinicians and healthcare administrators, and
provide a stronger platform for future growth as Ondine prepares for the next
stages of U.S. regulatory engagement, commercial adoption and global scale-up.
Commercial adoption
During 2025 and post-period, Ondine continued to expand its international
real-world clinical footprint, with deployments, pilot programmes and clinical
collaborations increasing by 28% year-on-year to 37 hospitals and surgical
clinics. These sites support workflow integration, local clinical adoption and
the generation of real-world evidence for Steriwave.
Our commercial adoption is driven by a disciplined land-and-expand model
designed to establish high-credibility footholds with key hospital systems. By
targeting initial deployments with clinicians focused on improving patient
outcomes, we secure the early-stage evidence and local advocacy required for
broader rollout.
Throughout 2025, we concentrated on establishing these strategic beachheads,
prioritising workflow integration and evidence generation.
In Canada, adoption expanded across major healthcare institutions, including
the University of Ottawa Heart Institute adopting Steriwave as standard of
care for all cardiac surgeries, Interior Health becoming the second health
authority in British Columbia to standardise Steriwave for hip and knee
replacement surgeries, and continued deployment growth across Fraser Health
hospitals and other leading cardiac and surgical centres. The technology was
also deployed for the first time in an intensive care unit at Royal Columbian
Hospital, extending its application beyond traditional surgical pathways.
In the United Kingdom, Steriwave was integrated into cardiac surgical care
pathways through a pilot programme at Royal Papworth Hospital NHS Foundation
Trust, supported by Ondine's distribution partner Mölnlycke Health Care. The
Company also continued to leverage its NHS Supply Chain listing to support
streamlined procurement pathways and increase visibility among NHS
organisations across England and Wales.
Across Europe, Ondine expanded clinical collaborations and pilot programmes,
including an ENT pilot at LMU University Hospital Munich, an independent study
at University Hospital Zurich, and deployment supporting ENT surgery pathways
in Spain. Beyond these markets, Steriwave was introduced through a first
hospital pilot at ABC Medical Center in Mexico City and is being used in
oncology patients at The Mater Hospital in Sydney, Australia, further
expanding its application across new geographies and patient populations.
The evidence generated during 2025 and post-period further strengthened the
case for broader adoption. Independent findings reported significant
reductions in surgical site infections across orthopaedic and spine surgery
pathways, including a 71% reduction in knee and hip arthroplasty infections at
Mid Yorkshire Teaching NHS Trust and a 78% reduction in spine surgical site
infections at Université de Sherbrooke with a 30% reduction in average
hospital length of stay. In parallel, analysis by the York Health Economics
Consortium (YHEC) confirmed that using Steriwave prior to major surgery can
deliver substantial net cost savings, with potential savings of £1.49-£2.38
for every £1 invested. Together, this evidence provides further validation of
Steriwave's clinical and economic value and support broader adoption by
healthcare providers and administrators.
This methodical approach cultivates clinical champions and high-profile
reference sites, creating a scalable foundation to expand across new
departments, geographies and use cases including expansion to additional areas
within the same institution, expansion into additional hospitals and regions,
and expansion into new use cases.
Preparation for U.S. market entry
In 2025, Ondine directed the majority of its financial, human, and operational
resources to the execution of its LANTERN Phase 3 pivotal study. This
large-scale, private/public multicentre cross-over study conducted across two
countries represents a significant milestone for Ondine, and is a key
component of Ondine's regulatory submission to the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) for access to the U.S. market.
Patient enrolment in the LANTERN study was completed post-period, with 5,188
patients enrolled across 14 HCA Healthcare hospitals in the United States and
four hospitals in Canada. Subject to receipt of final data, the Company
remains on track to report top-line results in Spring 2026 and is advancing
the activities required to support its planned NDA pathway, including
regulatory engagement, and related manufacturing and commercial planning.
Operational readiness and scale-up
Ondine's ability to scale is driven by the deliberate build-out of its
operational and organisational infrastructure. In 2025, the Company
strengthened manufacturing, supply chain, systems, and talent frameworks to
support demand and consistent execution. These foundations enable complex
clinical delivery and support transition to large-scale commercial deployment.
During 2025 and post-period, the Company continued to advance its in-house
manufacturing capabilities through dedicated equipment, facility upgrades and
system improvements, including the installation and validation of automated
fill-and-finish equipment to increase capacity, improve production control and
support lower cost of goods over time. Ondine also continued to enhance its
Quality Management System through the consolidation and digitisation of
quality processes, supporting a transition to a predominantly paperless
environment by the end of 2026 and improving operational efficiency. In
parallel, the Company introduced formal Sales and Operations Planning
processes and further strengthened supply chain capabilities to improve demand
forecasting, supply alignment and readiness for future global scale-up.
Financial Review
Ondine's financial priorities during 2025 were focused on advancing clinical
development, supporting targeted commercial activity, and strengthening
operational infrastructure. The Company directed the majority of its
investment toward its pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial, reflecting a deliberate
emphasis on building clinical validation ahead of key regulatory milestones as
a driver of long-term value. During the year, the Company raised c. $24
million to support these clinical priorities with the support of its long-term
shareholders and other investors.
In parallel, Ondine made targeted investments in manufacturing and operational
infrastructure to support future scalability, including dedicated
manufacturing equipment, preparatory work to enable in-house fill-and-finish
capability, and upgrades to internal systems to improve production efficiency,
quality and supply chain resilience.
This disciplined allocation of capital reflects a clear strategy to prioritise
clinical progress and operational readiness, positioning the Company for its
next phase of growth as it approaches key clinical and regulatory milestones.
Revenue
Revenue increased by 29% to $2.6 million (2024: $2.0 million), driven by new
hospital deployments and increased utilisation within existing accounts. Gross
margin was 61% (2024: 64%), with the modest change year-on-year primarily
reflecting the Company's hardware segment, where strategic investments
continue to support customer adoption and market penetration. Consumable's
margins improved during the year following the rollout of the Company's
next-generation Nasal Illuminator in Canada.
Research and development expenditure
Research and development expenses totalled $21.2 million (2024: $9.2 million),
of which $16.6 million was attributable to the LANTERN Phase 3 clinical trial.
The majority of total projected trial costs have been incurred as of 2025,
with the study now near completion.
The Company notes that Phase 3 clinical trials in the pharmaceutical industry
typically involve per-patient costs in the tens of thousands of dollars and
can result in total trial costs in the hundreds of millions for studies of
comparable size and scale. The Company's investment demonstrates its ability
to execute a large-scale clinical trial with capital significantly below that
typically associated with studies of this size.
In addition, the Company completed its first ICU pilot study during the year,
demonstrating a significant reduction in nasal bacterial load in critically
ill patients. The study was funded through equity-based arrangements, allowing
the Company to advance clinical evidence generation while preserving cash
resources. The Company also supported clinical and commercial pilot programmes
across multiple geographies.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by 12% to $8.7 million (2024:
$9.9 million), reflecting ongoing efforts to optimise the cost base while
maintaining core capabilities.
Marketing and sales expenses
Marketing and sales expenses remained stable at $1.1 million (2024: $1.1
million), reflecting the Company's prioritisation of clinical development over
near-term revenue expansion. Commercial activity remained focused on building
a foundation for future growth, including expanding the Company's installed
base, working closely with distribution partners in early-stage market
development, and onboarding and supporting Phase 3 clinical trial sites.
Liquidity, cash and cash equivalents
As at December 31, 2025, the Company held cash of $10.6 million (2024: $9.9
million). Net cash used in operating activities was $23.8 million (2024: $15.5
million), primarily driven by investment in the Phase 3 clinical trial. During
the year, the Company secured $24.2 million in financing (2024: $21.7
million), supporting continued operations and strategic priorities.
The Company continues to manage its capital resources carefully, aligning
expenditure with strategic priorities and maintaining focus on efficiency and
disciplined execution.
Post-period fundraise
Post period, Ondine raised $8.6 million in net cash from a £5.0 million gross
fundraise ($9.2 million), with extensive support from existing shareholders.
