• Reported favorable 30-day (100 patients) and 1-year (65 patients) DurAVR^® THV clinical outcomes from rolling cohorts of small annuli, symptomatic severe aortic stenosis patients
• Completed the first “double DurAVR^®” implant in a patient receiving a valve-in-valve replacement in both the mitral and aortic valve positions
• Strengthened operational infrastructure and advanced quality management system buildout while advancing manufacturing scale-up to support clinical activities, including ISO 13485 certification for DurAVR^® THV production
• Appointed David Roberts and Gregory Moss to serve as two new independent directors on the Board of Directors
• Received approval from the Company’s stockholders for ASX Limited’s grant to the Company of a waiver from ASX Listing Rule 7.1

“2025 was a pivotal year for Anteris, advancing DurAVR^® with disciplined execution, strengthening our clinical foundation, and positioning the company for long term leadership in structural heart. We converted strategy into measurable progress, reinforcing our competitive position and accelerating our path toward commercial readiness. The progress achieved in 2025 has strengthened our foundation and sharpened our trajectory toward becoming a leader in next-generation TAVR. We remained focused on what matters most; advancing clinical evidence, strengthening our balance sheet, and building sustainable long-term value,” said Wayne Paterson, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Anteris.

2025 Financial Results

The financial results for Anteris for the year ended December 31, 2025, are presented below.

The Company’s net operating cash outflows for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $77.8 million, in line with the increase in clinical, regulatory and manufacturing requirements to support the PARADIGM Trial. Reflecting this clinical focus, the key areas of the Company’s operating expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2025, were as follows:

• R&D expenses were $69.1 million and included the upscaling of manufacturing and quality capabilities, including process design and validation activities, an increase in R&D headcount, PARADIGM Trial preparatory activities, including clinical costs associated with the enrolment of additional patients and the scaling of our field-based clinical team, and expansion of our medical affairs activities, partially offset by lower DurAVR^® THV product research costs as we shifted our focus to clinical, regulatory and manufacturing activities ahead of the PARADIGM Trial.
• Selling, general and administrative expenses were $26.1 million.

About the PARADIGM Trial

The PARADIGM Trial is a prospective randomized controlled trial which will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the DurAVR^® THV compared to commercially available transcatheter aortic valve replacements (“TAVRs”).

This head-to-head study will enroll approximately 1000 patients in the ‘All Comers Randomized Cohort’ with 1:1 randomization of patients who will receive either the DurAVR^® THV or TAVR using commercially available and approved THVs. The PARADIGM Trial will assess non-inferiority on a primary composite endpoint of all-cause mortality, all stroke and cardiovascular hospitalization at one year post procedure.

The PARADIGM Trial is actively recruiting with the first patients enrolled and implanted during the fourth quarter of 2025. For further information, please refer to ClinicalTrials.gov NCT07194265.
