Investor presentation summary
25 Jun, 2026Market opportunity and unmet need
U.S. cochlear implant market estimated at $84 billion, with 2.8 million adults as candidates and only 5% currently treated, leaving 95% of the market untapped.
Hearing loss affects 14% of Americans, with prevalence increasing with age; by 2060, over 73 million Americans are expected to have hearing loss.
Severe to profound hearing loss costs society about $297,000 per affected person over a lifetime and is linked to increased dementia risk, falls, depression, and reduced income.
The cochlear implant market is expected to grow due to an aging population, expanding candidacy, and rising awareness.
Product innovation and differentiation
Acclaim® CI is the first fully implanted cochlear implant, eliminating the need for external hardware and leveraging the natural ear pathway for sound.
Device features include no visible hardware, proprietary sensor, five-day recharge interval, and MRI compatibility (pending testing).
Acclaim® CI uses sensor technology from the FDA-approved Esteem® device, which has been implanted in ~1,000 patients globally.
Differentiation includes a replaceable battery, no magnets, and support for in-ear consumer electronics, unlike competitors using subcutaneous microphones and smaller, non-replaceable batteries.
Clinical and regulatory progress
Acclaim® CI pivotal trial fully enrolled with 56 patients implanted and activated as of March 2026; first in the industry to achieve this milestone.
Interim six-month data showed no serious adverse events and improved CNC word recognition from 15.2% to 39.2%.
FDA Breakthrough Device Designation granted in 2019; pivotal trial sites include leading U.S. cochlear implant centers.
FDA approval and commercial launch anticipated by end of 2027, with PMA submission expected in Q2 2027.
