Mr. Palumbo's deep relationships across health systems, payers and healthcare's senior executive community expected to accelerate Dario's commercial partnerships and position the Company to realize its full strategic value

NEW YORK, April 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DarioHealth Corp. (NASDAQ:DRIO) (the "Company" or "Dario"), a leader in global digital health, today announced the appointment of John R. Palumbo to its Board of Directors. The addition reflects Dario's continued alignment of board composition with its next phase of commercial scaling.

Mr. Palumbo brings more than 40 years of healthcare operating experience across early-stage ventures and Fortune 100 enterprises. His substantial background includes senior leadership roles at AmerisourceBergen Corporation (now Cencora, Inc.), where he led the provider business unit and expanded consulting and technology capabilities into a multibillion-dollar platform serving health systems nationwide, as well as Chief Operating Officer of Allscripts Healthcare Solutions, Inc. (now Veradigm, Inc.) and leadership positions at Shared Medical Systems Corporation (Siemens Aktiengesellschaft).

"John's appointment is highly intentional and strategically valuable," stated Dario's Chief Executive Officer, Erez Raphael. "As we transition from demonstrating the strength of our distribution model to scaling it efficiently through channel partnerships, we are adding leaders to our board who have done exactly that. John brings a rare combination of strategic insight, operational discipline and deep industry relationships that will directly support our growth trajectory. He has been at the center of some of healthcare's most consequential strategic transactions and organizational transformations, and his relationships with senior decision-makers across the payer, provider and health services landscape will be invaluable as we continue to build and scale. We are increasingly confident that the market will come to fully reflect the value we have built – and we are not standing still while that recognition develops."

Mr. Palumbo has guided organizations through transformative growth, including supporting two companies through IPOs and leading large-scale operational and commercial transformations. His experience is particularly relevant to Dario's evolution toward a more capital-efficient, partner-led go-to-market strategy. He brings deep familiarity with the care delivery ecosystem, including the health systems, payers and provider services organizations that are shaping its consolidation – adding a dimension of strategic reach that directly complements Dario's next phase.

In addition to his operating capabilities, Mr. Palumbo is actively engaged in the digital health ecosystem. He currently serves on the boards of PM Pediatrics Management Group, LLC, Lucid Diagnostics Inc., ivWatch, LLC and Qless, Inc., and chairs the advisory board of Brado Cuneo Nollau, LLC, an AI-driven engagement platform serving health systems.

"Dario is at a compelling inflection point," said Mr. Palumbo. "The Company has built a differentiated, integrated solution with strong engagement which is delivering proven economic and clinical outcomes. The opportunity now is to scale that value through the right commercial channels and ensure the Company captures the full strategic opportunity its platform represents. I look forward to working closely with management to help accelerate both our commercial momentum and the value creation this platform deserves."
