RA'ANANA, Israel, March 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ:IINN) ("Inspira" or the "Company"), a pioneer in innovative life-support and diagnostic technologies, today announced its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2025, and provided a corporate update.

Dagi Ben-Noon, Chief Executive Officer of Inspira, commented: "2025 marked a pivotal year for Inspira as we advanced from clinical validation into early commercial execution. Throughout 2025 and since year-end, we saw meaningful progress across multiple commercialization pathways for the INSPIRA™ ART100 system, including active clinical use at leading medical centers, advancement of a submitted quotation into a capital intake process at a leading U.S. academic medical center, and continued expansion of our commercial footprint. In parallel, we are engaged in ongoing discussions with multiple medical device companies regarding broader strategic collaboration frameworks and other potential value-creating opportunities to support the Company's long-term commercial expansion. We also strengthened the broader foundation of the Company through continued development of HYLA™ and further expansion of our intellectual property portfolio. As we move through 2026, our focus remains on execution - advancing procurement processes, expanding clinical and commercial deployment, and converting our growing opportunity base into revenue."

Recent Business and Operational Highlights

Clinical Validation and Expansion in Leading Medical Centers: In April 2025, Inspira successfully treated its first patient using the ART100 system at Westchester Medical Center, marking a critical milestone in validating the system's real-world clinical performance. Subsequent to year-end, the ART100 was deployed at additional leading medical centers in the U.S. and has alre been used in multiple clinical procedures, including lung transplant cases, further expanding the Company's clinical footprint and demonstrating its applicability in complex, high-acuity hospital environments.

Subsequent to year-end, the Company received vendor approval enabling the ART100 to enter formal procurement pathways across a major healthcare network, where the system has since been used in lung transplant procedures at a leading medical center. In parallel, following completion of the clinical evaluation phase at a leading U.S. academic medical center, the institution advanced the submitted quotation into its capital intake process, reflecting continued progression toward formal procurement.

To support this expansion, the Company appointed U.S.-based Mike Hershkovitz, a former Johnson & Johnson senior business manager with nearly two decades of experience across U.S. and international healthcare markets, as Vice President of Global Sales. The Company is also engaged in active commercial discussions with multiple hospital systems and commercialization organizations across evaluation, deployment and procurement pathways, and expects additional deployments and procurement conversions as these processes advance.

Commercial Traction, Procurement Progression and Scaling Infrastructure: During 2025, Inspira initiated its first commercial deployments of the ART100 system, generating initial revenues and establishing early user experience in hospital environments. Building on this foundation, the Company secured binding purchase orders totaling $49.5 million during mid-2025, representing its first large-scale commercial commitments, with revenue expected to be primarily recognized during 2026 as these orders progress through governmental procurement and budgetary validation processes.

Advancement of HYLA™ Blood Sensor and Platform Development: Inspira continued to advance its HYLA™ blood sensor platform during 2025 and subsequent to year-end. The Company previously reported 97.35% accuracy in clinical evaluations and has since progressed HYLA into a next-generation standalone configuration with additional parameters. This configuration is designed to enable HYLA to operate independently of the Company's respiratory support devices and may support a broader commercial pathway upon regulatory clearance. In parallel, the Company strengthened its long-term platform positioning through continued expansion of its intellectual property portfolio, including U.S. patent approval for the INSPIRA™ ART500 core technology, extending protection through at least 2043.

Strategic Evaluation and Portfolio Optimization: In January 2026, the Company announced that it had entered into a non-binding term sheet with Bio-View Ltd. outlining the principal terms of a proposed acquisition of an advanced liquid biopsy diagnostics business. Following further evaluation, the Company determined not to proceed with the proposed transaction and terminated its previously disclosed term sheet. The Company is currently evaluating strategic alternatives, including opportunities that it believes may offer a more compelling path to generating significant shareholder value, and will provide updates as appropriate.

Financial Results for the Year Ended December 31, 2025

Revenues: For the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized approximately $289,000 in revenues resulting from initial deployments of the INSPIRA™ ART100 system.

Research and development expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, were $7,496,000, compared to $6,323,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to higher share-based compensation expenses and the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on salary-related costs.

General and administrative expenses increased to $5,532,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, from $4,185,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. This increase was driven primarily by higher salary expenses and share-based compensation, including accelerated vesting of stock options in connection with the departure of the Company's former President.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $588,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $754,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to lower payroll expenses that were shifted to general and administration expenses.

Total operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, were $13,623,000, compared to $11,267,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

Net loss was $13,220,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, compared to $11,053,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024.

Cash and cash equivalents and deposits totaled $3,159,000 as of December 31, 2025, compared to $5,779,000 as of December 31, 2024. Subsequent to year-end, the Company completed a registered direct offering generating gross proceeds of approximately $4.75 million, strengthening its liquidity position and supporting continued commercial execution, ongoing operations and strategic initiatives in 2026.

As a result, the Company believes that due to the net proceeds from the offering and from certain amendments to existing warrants that are now classified as equity, it currently satisfies the minimum stockholder's equity requirement of $2.5 million under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Financial liabilities at fair value totaled $1,082,000 as of December 31, 2025, compared to $1,575,000 as of December 31, 2024, representing the fair value of the Company's equity-linked liabilities.
