Thank you, Louisa, and good morning, everyone. 2025 was a transformative year for our company, highlighted by 39% revenue growth in our core HIFU business and record commercial performance for Focal One. Importantly, much of this growth was driven by accelerated adoption in the U.S., where we delivered record system placements and strong procedure growth. The install base continues to expand. We are also seeing increased utilization across hospitals emphasizing the positive recurring revenue opportunity created by each vocal one system placement we will begin with our fourth quarter results then reflect on our achievements including our financial performance and we will close the call by outlining our strategic priorities for 2026 and the company's history for HIFU revenue representing an increase of thirty-four percent over the same period last year was led by capital sales and treatment driven revenues which continue to be the driving force of our ongoing commercial success we achieved a record 15 focal one placements worldwide including 14 cash sales representing our strongest quarter to date in both placements in cash sales performance was driven by the US market which delivered 10 cash sales its highest quarterly total on record beyond the headline numbers the profile of our customers continues to be led by the expanding adoption of focal one amongst leading academic centers in major community hospitals notably we achieved our first focal one placement in the state of Wisconsin at Aurora st. Luke's Medical Center part of advocate health a major integrated healthcare delivery network, spanning 18 hospitals across the states of Wisconsin and Illinois. In total, we achieved four new FOCA1 placements in the state of Pennsylvania during the quarter, further strengthening our presence in this region. The University of Pennsylvania, a member of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network and a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, converted their existing HIFU program to FOCA1. With the addition of the University of Pennsylvania, Focal One now has been adopted by 55% of NCCN member institutions. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, UPMC, a Society of Urologic Oncology Approved Fellowship Program, was also added to our FOCAL1 install base this quarter, bringing our penetration to 63% of the prestigious SUO group of teaching hospitals in the U.S. Of noted importance after the recent placements at two additional Cleveland Clinic hospitals in the U.S. during the fourth quarter, there are now five FOCAL1 systems within the global Cleveland Clinic hospital. Now, hospitals see increasing patient demand. They are expanding across multiple locations. We now have 10 leading U.S. healthcare systems with two or more Focal One programs. We also continue to see existing competitive high food programs converting to Focal One technology. Three major focal therapy programs converted from use of legacy high food technology to Focal One, including the University of Pennsylvania, Penn State Health, as well as Lakewood Ranch Medical Center in Florida. Notably, at Lakewood Ranch Medical Center, Dr. Stephen Schianti, a high-volume focal therapy expert, has transitioned to the Focal1i platform. Dr. Schianti is widely recognized as one of the most experienced HIFU experts in the U.S., having treated 2,000 prostate cancer patients in over 20 years using a legacy HIFU platform. His decision to adopt our latest technology further validates our strategy of ongoing innovation and reflects Focal One Eye's advanced imaging and robotic precision. Internationally, our Focal One capital sales momentum also continues to expand in existing regions as well as new emerging markets. During the quarter, we achieved four cash sales outside the U.S., including the first Focal1 system in India and the first Focal1 system in Argentina. The sale to Ruby Hall Clinic, a top-tier institution in Pune, India, represents a key commercial milestone in a large and under-penetrated market. Additionally, the sale at the Argentinian Institute of Diagnostics and Treatment in Buenos Aires expands our South American footprint, adding to other existing Focal One sites in Brazil and Chile. Finally, our momentum continues to build across Southern Europe with additional new Focal One system sales in both Italy and Spain. While we were encouraged by this strong momentum, we believe we are early in the overall adoption life cycle of FOCAL1 robotic HIFU in this large and growing addressable market. Turning our attention to utilization, U.S. FOCAL1 procedure volumes reached the highest quarterly level, growing 28% as compared to Q4 2024. This procedure growth is driven by a combination of newly launched programs as well as increased patient demand with existing programs. This was consistent across the different geographic market segments to include hospitals in large metropolitan statistical areas as well as hospitals in smaller communities. Complementing our commercial success, we achieved an important regulatory milestone during the fourth quarter. On November 20th, we received FDA clearance for the latest evolution of Focal One Robotic IFU, introducing advanced ultrasound imaging and streamlined treatment planning. This next-generation ultrasound imaging engine provides real-time visualization and supports the future development of AI-driven algorithms designed to assist surgeons with tissue ablation visualization and treatment evaluation. These combined advancements, along with the launch of Focal I Eye earlier in 2025, further strengthens our leadership position in focal therapy while providing incremental sales momentum into 2026. Turning our attention to reimbursement, the landscape continues to move in a favorable direction for Focal I. CMS finalized the 2026 Outpatient Prospective Payment System Rule, awarding a national facility payment average of $9,671, representing a 4.6% increase versus 2025. This new rate went into effect January 1st. As it relates to the physician payment, FOCA1 is also supported by favorable economics. In the 2026 Final Rule of the Physician D Schedule, CMS has set the total facility RBUs at 26.33 for the HIFU procedure. This compares favorably to alternative ablative treatments for prostate cancer for a single urologist under the same setting and patient conditions. In short, the FOCA1 HIFU procedure provides a physician from 28% to 67% higher RBUs and alternative ablative treatments from 2026. Beyond prostate cancer, we continue to advance our clinical strategy to expand new indications with use of the Focal One Robotic HyPOO platform. As Endometriosis Awareness Month comes to a close here in March, we continue our commitment to advance new innovative treatment options while raising visibility on the unmet mean for a new non-invasive treatment option for women suffering from this highly debilitating condition. La Rouse University Hospital in Lyon, France, is treating patients and hosting training programs for leading European endometriosis specialists, including physicians from Cleveland Clinic London who recently observed Focal I procedures. In BPH, our combined phase 1-2 study continues in Europe according to our outlined protocol. Simultaneously, we initiated a new clinical trial in South America in collaboration with the Mount Sinai Health System in New York with several patients already treated in early March by a team of local and U.S. BPH experts. This represents another positive step towards broadening the addressable market for use of Focal One robotic HIFU. Transitioning to surgeon education, our activities continue to build growing awareness across the urological community. We recently attended the 41st Annual Congress of the European Association of Urology in London, UK. This is the second largest scientific meeting dedicated to urology in the world with more than 12,000 attendees from 124 countries. In front of this year's EAU meeting, we collaborated with Cleveland Clinic London to host a sold-out urology peer-to-peer educational event dedicated to learning and understanding the clinical value and applications delivered by VOCAL1 robotic HIFU in the treatment of prostate cancer. This coming weekend, the world-renowned urology team at NYU Langone in New York City will host the first international symposium on robotic focal therapy. This large inaugural event entirely dedicated to FOCAL1 will offer attendees lectures, hands-on training, detailed video case reviews, and semi-live FOCAL1 procedures led by top U.S. and international experts. I will now turn the call over to Ken, who will review our financial results.

Thanks, Ryan, and good morning, everyone. Before I begin, I want to note that all 2025 figures are reported in Euros, our functional and reporting currency. For conversion purposes, our average Euro-dollar exchange rate was 1.16 for the fourth quarter, 2025. Beginning with our Q1 2026 results, we will report in U.S. dollars, reflecting our transition to a domestic issuer. Turning to full year 2025 performance, EDAP set a calendar year record for HIFU revenue in 2025. HIFU revenue for the full year 2025 was 33.1 million euros, an increase of 39% as compared to HIFU revenue of 23.8 million euros for the full year 2024. The increase in HIFU segment revenue versus the prior year was due to a 59% increase in the number of focal one system units sold and a 19% year-over-year increase in treatment-driven revenue. Total revenue for full year 2025 with 62.4 million euros, a decrease of 3% compared to 64.1 million euros for the full year 2024. The year-over-year decrease was driven by a 27% decline in our non-core distribution and ESWL businesses, which offset the 39% growth in core HIFU business, as I just outlined. This is consistent with our strategy of focusing resources on the higher margin HIFU business while managing the legacy businesses through their natural decline. Now turning to the fourth quarter. Q4 2025 was a record quarter for HIFU revenue. HIFU revenue was 11.7 million euros, a notable increase of 34% as compared to HIFU revenue of 8.8 million euros for the same period in 2024 the increase in revenue was due to continued significant strength in our focal one high food business driven by 14 focal one capital sales in the quarter versus 11 capital sales in the prior year period as well as a 22 percent year-over-year increase in focal one treatment driven revenue as mentioned earlier focal one procedures in the u.s grew 28 percent year over year total revenue for the quarter was 18.9 million euros a decrease of seven percent compared to 20.3 million euros for the same period in 2024 the decrease was primarily driven by a 38 percent decline in our non-core distribution and eswl businesses in the quarter versus Q4 2024, offsetting the 34% year-over-year growth in HIFU business. We continue to expect our non-core segments to decline as a percentage of total revenue over time, consistent with our strategic focus. Regarding gross margin, gross margin for the quarter was 8.1 million euros, compared to 9.1 million euros for the same period in 2024. Gross margin on net sales was 42.6% down from 44.8% for the same period in 2024. This decline was primarily driven by two items, tariffs on imports of finished goods from France and an inventory reserve related to legacy parts. Excluding these items, underlying gross margin performance was in line with the prior year. we continue to actively monitor the tariff environment. Operating expenses were 13.2 million euros for the quarter compared to 12.8 million euros for the same period in 2024. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to focus investments in our HIFU business. Operating loss for the quarter was 5.2 million euros compared to an operating loss of 3.7 million euros in the fourth quarter of 2024. Net loss for the quarter was 8.2 million euros or 0.22 euros per share as compared to a net loss of 1.9 million euros or 0.05 euros per share in the same period a year ago. The increase was driven by two items below the operating line, a 2.5 million euro non-cash charge related to warrants and interest expense on the european investment bank tranche a drawdown and a 2 million euro negative currency impact versus the prior year period turning to the balance sheet inventory decreased to 10.9 million euros at quarter end as compared to 13.8 million euros at the end of q3 this reduction was driven by the high volume of capital system sales in the quarter and disciplined inventory management total cash and cash equivalents were 17.4 million euros at quarter end up from 10.6 million euros at the end of q3 primarily reflecting the eib tranche a drawdown finally on to our 2026 outlook as previously announced in January, we expect core HIFU revenue to be in the range of 50 million to 54 million US dollars, representing 34% to 45% growth over 2025. Combined non-core revenue is expected in the range of 22 million to 26 million US dollars. This guidance reflects our confidence in the The capital placement momentum Ryan described, our expanding installed base, and the continued ramp of procedure volumes across our growing network of Focal I programs. I would like to now turn the call back to Ryan for closing comments.

Thanks, Ken. In closing, 2025 was a year of record performance, expanding clinical validation, and technological advancement. As we enter 2026 with accelerating commercial momentum, we are executing with discipline against three high-impact priorities designed to drive durable growth and long-term shareholder value. Commercial execution. We are expanding our penetration across leading academic centers, community hospitals, and integrated delivery networks with significant runway ahead as we remain early in the adoption life cycle of this large, underpenetrated market in prostate cancer. Second, clinical indication expansion. Beyond prostate cancer, we are unlocking incremental growth opportunities for VOLC1 across new indications. We are making meaningful progress on our BPH clinical and regulatory pathway and accelerating commercialization in endometriosis. technology, and innovation. We are advancing AI-driven treatment planning and next-generation imaging capabilities to strengthen vocal ones' leadership as the most advanced robotic vocal therapy platform in the The combination of these priorities, commercial execution, indication expansion, and continued technology innovation and leadership underpins our confidence in our 2026 outlook and beyond in closing we are confident in our ability to deliver sustainable growth and praise long-term shareholder value now turn the call back over to the operator for questions operator thank you if you would like to

ask a question, please press star 1 on your keypad. To leave the queue at any time, press star 2. Once again, to ask a question, please press star and 1. And we will pause for a moment to allow everyone a chance to join the queue. We'll take our first question from Mike Sarkone with Jefferies. Please go ahead. Your line is open.

Hey, good morning, and thanks for taking the questions. I guess just to start, can you give us a little more color? I know you're reiterating the 2026 guidance, but particularly on the HIFU side, any color on growth and procedures versus – Yeah, Michael, so, again, we see pipelines building and being strong both in the U.S., but importantly also in the outside U.S. markets.

We continue to execute around, you know, global regions. So as we've talked about in the past, pipeline development and a growing pipeline in the U.S., but equally in the outside U.S., and some of that was demonstrated certainly with our results here at the end of the year, and we're already into 2026. Procedure growth, again, we saw a notable increase, Q4, 28 percent over prior year. We see double-digit growth from quarter to quarter if we measured ourselves on Q4 versus Q3. of last year, and I think we're, you know, again, seeing more and more centers actively looking to expand to a broader audience of patients. Again, each program ramps differently, but I think overall we look outward and see a strong year for us, both in terms of capital sales as well as procedure growth.

And, Michael, as we move forward to, as Ryan referenced, with 35 focal one sales in 2025, that is going to lead down the road to procedure growth as well as service growth when those expire. With our install base now at 165 units, that's also going to lead to disposable sales growth and service growth as well. capital sales will lead the way again on a percentage basis, but we do see the procedure and service revenue volume picking up as a total percentage of revenue for HIFU.

Great that's all very helpful and then maybe just my follow-up. What have you seen so far in 1Q to date in terms of for US and globally, and particularly in the U.S., have you seen any impact from some of the storms?

No impact that I can point to. I would say generally we see a nice ramp developing. You know, we came off of Q4, a strong quarter. But again, Q1 is ramping as planned, nothing holding us back from growing appropriately per the guidance we've given in procedure growth and revenue. Thank you.

Thank you. We will move next to Joseph Downing with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead, your line is open.

Hey guys, good morning. Thank you for taking the questions. Yeah, so I guess the HIFU guide was reiterated here and I'm just thinking how should investors be thinking about the first half, second half split within the HIFU guide, you know, given the seasonality with 4Q, and then specifically, what's the reasonable baseline for 1Q HIFU revenue given typical hospital CapEx sensitivity? And then just at a higher level, are you embedding any cushion for, you know, lumpiness throughout the year of the capital sales line? Do you think that should kind of flatten out a little bit over the course of this year, or should we expect more of the similar from the previous few years there?

Yeah, so thanks for the question. So when we look at this year's revenue, 2026, we're going to see the following patterns, very consistent with prior years. We anticipate Q4 to be the highest growth quarter revenue-wise and our biggest dollar-wise quarter, and the lowest quarter will be in Q3. That's very consistent with Q4 capital budgets ending and Q3 summer slowdown. So we see a little less than 50% of the business in the first half of the year, and I'd say a little more on the second half.

Great. I appreciate that, Ken. And then just on the non-core wind-down trajectory, obviously it implies another step down from last year's figure in 2026. In terms of if you can just break out how much of that is ESWL versus the distribution business, and then at what point does non-core revenue effectively reach at the minimus level, I guess, settle a little differently, when does the revenue mix shift kind of become clean enough that investors should evaluate EDAP purely on HIFU metrics? Thanks.

Yeah, so when you look at the non-core, ESWL is roughly 20% to 25% of the non-core. Okay? And the way we're looking at the business going forward is as follows. Our ESWL business now is service-only business, so we're going to continue to serve that and look at ways to monetize that business. And the way to look at the distribution business going forward, it's just like I explained last year. When these agreements expire, our annual distribution agreements, we're taking a look at each agreement. Is it material to revenue and is it accretive to gross margin? and then we're making, you know, executive decisions on should we ramp that business going forward. So I would still see that, you know, business sticking around in the short term.

Great. Appreciate that. Thank you, guys. Thank you.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Soyan Kapula Romanos. Please go ahead. You're letting me open.

Hello. This is Arche from Hitsi Vendrite. Good morning, Ryan and Kent. A couple of quick questions for me. The first one being on the margins, you know, you cited a normalized margin of 46.9%. I understand some of that is, you know, being hit by the Section 232 tariff stuff. What percentage, you know, of your revenue gets impacted by that? And then, you know, what's the strategy going forward if this – if they're sticking us to that 232 tariffs?

Yeah, so, RK, as you know, we manufacture our product in Lyon, France. So the pieces of the business that are impacted are when we shift the finished good from Lyon, France to the United States. So it's basically our US revenue that's impacted to those dollars today. We're monitoring the situation closely. We have budgeted about $2.5 million in tariffs in 2026 to be conservative. And we're just going to continually monitor, you know, what everything is happening from the government regarding those. The offset to the tariff is we do have our new ultrasound engine. As we anticipated and told you last year, we were transitioning to this engine. It's going to have better functionality and also lower cost. So that will help offset some of the tariff impact.

And then, Ryan, just about a high-level thought here. I know for quite a bit of 24 and the early part of 25, you were concerned about cash sales. You know, you closed out 20 to 25 with 14 cash sales and one lease. So does that mean some of those concerns regarding cash sales have mitigated quite a bit, and so you're comfortable going into 26? And also, if there was any price increase taken in early part of 2026, you know, just trying to understand what could be the potential levers. or the full push on the on the revenue guidance that you just gave us yeah okay so again as I tell people we sell a clinically necessary strategic revenue enhancing service line in the number one diagnosed cancer in that so that puts us in a position to be strategic in nature and with that hospitals need to

invest in the technology and that that means purchase the technology so we've been leading with the cash sale. We believe our platform is best in class in the market. It brings immediate tangible value when we launch our programs. So a cash sale makes total sense, plus the reimbursement that's in place today. So cash sales will be our lead theme going forward. In the past, we have offered some time-based operational leases or bridge to budget or bridge to purchase. We don't need to do that as much anymore. I think people realize that Focal One is a key anchor point to their overall Focal Therapy program. So we showed, you know, excellent sales and cash sales here in Q4. Our theme going forward will be leading with cash sales, as notably. In terms of a price increase, we took a price increase last year with the launch of Focal One Eye, and as you heard in the past, we made notable advancements in this new platform, both hardware and software, and we're not done. We will continue to innovate on the platform. We've made improvements in a number of areas, and we're never satisfied. So we have a price increase that went into place last year. we haven't changed our pricing strategy at the beginning of this year and we see our average selling prices tend to hold or even slightly increase. So I'm proud of the work our commercial teams are doing in the field.

Yep, yep, great. Thank you very much. Thanks for taking my questions.

Thank you.

Thank you. And at this time, there are no further questions in queue. I will turn the meeting back to Ryan Rhodes for closing remarks.

I want to thank everyone again for joining us on today's call. We look forward to seeing you in Washington, D.C. at the upcoming annual meeting of the American Urological Association in May, and our important Investor Day being held in New York City on June 1st, along with the Jefferies Healthcare Conference also taking place in New York City the beginning of June.

Thank you. This brings us to the end of today's meeting. We appreciate your time and participation. You may now disconnect.
