Picard Medical / SynCardia Showcases Leadership in Total Artificial Heart Therapy at Technology and
Heart Failure Therapeutics Conference
New data highlight additional benefits beyond survival with the SynCardia Total Artificial Heart and
preclinical progress for the next-generation Emperor system
Tucson, Ariz. March 2, 2026 - Picard Medical, Inc. (NYSE American: PMI) (“Picard” or the “Company”), parent company of SynCardia Systems LLC, maker of the world’s first total artificial heart approved by both the U.S. FDA and Health Canada, today announced that Dr. Andre Simon, Vice President of Clinical Affairs, will deliver three scientific and educational presentations at the Technology and Heart Failure Therapeutics (THT) 2026 conference to be held in Boston from March 2nd to March 4th 2026. Dr. Simon’s presentations will focus on both the current SynCardia Total Artificial Heart (STAH) and the Company’s next-generation fully implantable Emperor system, reinforcing Picard Medical’s leadership in advanced mechanical circulatory support.
Dr. Andre Simon commented, “Total artificial heart therapy continues to evolve through both clinical experience and technological innovation. Our goal is not only survival, but meaningful recovery, improved quality of life, and preservation of transplant opportunity. Picard Medical’s participation at THT reflects the Company’s ongoing commitment to scientific exchange, physician education, and innovation in next generation artificial heart technology.”

Date and Time: Wednesday, March 4; 8:50 AM EST; Ensemble C-D | Level 2
Title: “Beyond Survival: Defining Success After Total Artificial Heart Implantation”
This presentation will highlight updated registry analyses showing that outcomes with the SynCardia Total Artificial Heart extend beyond survival to include stabilization, organ recovery, functional improvement, and preservation of transplant eligibility. Key findings include sustained clinical success in critically ill patients, improved outcomes in patients implanted earlier in their disease trajectory, strong recovery potential even in patients initially not eligible for transplant, and significant improvements in quality of life after early postoperative recovery. Renal and neurological outcomes remain major determinants of long-term success.
