Investor presentation summary
17 Jun, 2026Market opportunity and industry trends
Chronic wounds affect over 7 million Americans, with the US wound care market estimated at $76 billion annually, spanning pressure injuries, diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, burns, and surgical wounds.
The market is undergoing a shift toward evidence-based medicine, with payors reassessing reimbursement for traditional treatments and favoring technologies with strong clinical backing.
CMS and commercial providers increasingly classify regenerative technology products as medically necessary, driving demand for innovative solutions.
Recent CMS repricing of skin substitutes has drastically reduced their reimbursement, creating disruption and opportunity for alternative therapies.

Clinical studies show Ultramist achieves up to 72% greater healing rates at 12 weeks compared to standard care, with significant pain reduction and improved closure rates for chronic wounds.
Over 325,000 procedures were performed in 2025, with strong patient and physician testimonials supporting rapid healing and improved quality of life.
