Speaker #3: Good morning and thank you for joining us. Q2 was another strong quarter for establishment labs. We delivered revenue of $67.5 million and adjusted EBITDA of $3.7 million representing revenue growth of 31.7% over the same period last year.

Peter Caldini: Good morning, and thank you for joining us. Q2 was another strong quarter for Establishment Labs. We delivered revenue of $67.5 million and adjusted EBITDA of $3.7 million, representing revenue growth of 31.7% over the same period last year. The US business once again outperformed, generating revenue of $24.7 million, an increase of over 140% compared to the same quarter last year, and an increase of 26% from Q1. Outside the United States, our business grew steadily at 4.4%, supported by strong execution in our direct markets and steady demand with our distributors. Our minimally invasive platform continued to emerge as an important growth driver globally, generating $12.1 million in revenue during the quarter. We are off to a good start in Q3, which is traditionally the seasonal low point of our industry.

Speaker #3: Outside the United States, our business grew steadily at 4.4%, supported by strong execution in our direct markets and steady demand with our distributors. Our minimally invasive platform continued to merge as an important growth driver globally, generating $12.1 million in revenue during the quarter.

Speaker #3: We're off to a good start in Q3, which is traditionally the seasonal low point of our industry. As a result of our first half performance, we are raising our full-year revenue guidance to $269 to $271 million, up from our previous range of $266.5 to $268.5 million.

Peter Caldini: As a result of our H1 performance, we are raising our full year revenue guidance to $269 to $271 million, up from our previous range of $266.5 and $268.5 million. Minimally invasive is approaching 15% of our global business for the year and is expanding our total addressable market. We should transition to free cash flow positive during the H2 of 2026 and be free cash flow positive for fiscal 2027. With our recent inclusion in the Russell 2000 index, we have quite a bit of new interest in our story, and this was a focus of our Q1 call, where we walked through the technological foundation of our business and what makes Establishment Labs different. If you are joining us for the first time, I would encourage you to read the transcript from that call.

Speaker #3: Minimally invasive is approaching 15% of our global business for the year, and is expanding our total addressable market. We should transition to free cash flow positive during the second half of 2026 and be free cash flow positive for fiscal 2027.

Speaker #3: Where we walked through the technological foundation of our business and what makes establishment labs different. If you're joining us for the first time, I'd encourage you to read the transcript from that call.

Speaker #3: It provides a good overview of our product differentiation, strategy, and the long-term opportunity we see ahead. We aren't just looking to take share from others in breast aesthetics and reconstruction.

Peter Caldini: It provides a good overview of our product differentiation, strategy, and the long-term opportunity we see ahead. We are not just looking to take share from others in breast aesthetics and reconstruction. We are looking to meaningfully expand the market. Breast aesthetics has been heavily underinvested for years and we remain the only company bringing meaningful improvements and differentiated technologies to the market. Our goal has never been to be another implant company. Our goal is to be a major contributor to women's health. We started with Motiva Implant, a product developed through years of investment in science, engineering, and clinical research. It has shown the strongest safety data in the industry, and this has been the foundation for one of the fastest launches in the US breast aesthetics.

Speaker #3: It has shown the strongest safety data in the industry and this has been the foundation for one of the fastest launches in the U.S.

Speaker #3: breast aesthetics. Our technology platform allows us to do so much more, and we are already seeing how it enables an entirely new category of procedures through the introduction of minimally invasive.

Peter Caldini: Our technology platform allows us to do so much more, and we are already seeing how it enables an entirely new category of procedures through the introduction of minimally invasive. Today, that platform consists of two procedures, Mia and Preservé. A third procedure called GEM is currently in development and represents a potential breakthrough in gluteal augmentation, offering what could be a safer and more predictable alternative to the Brazilian butt lift. Mia and Preservé are built on the tissue-preserving principles that Establishment Labs has pioneered and patented. The surgeries are designed to preserve native breast tissue, sensation, and chest muscles. The focus on preservation delivers clear benefits to the patient. Minimal anesthesia with barely noticeable scars and a significantly reduced recovery time compared to traditional breast augmentation.

Speaker #3: Minimal anesthesia with barely noticeable scars and a significantly reduced recovery time compared to traditional breast augmentation. PreserVe accommodates a broader range of patient needs, including larger augmentations and augmentation mastopexy procedures, while maintaining the same principles of tissue preservation and faster recovery.

Peter Caldini: Preservé accommodates a broader range of patient needs, including larger augmentations and augmentation mastopexy procedures while maintaining the same principles of tissue preservation and faster recovery. Mia, which is currently available outside the United States, is designed for women seeking a more subtle enhancement, typically 1 to 2 cup size increase. The procedure uses our Ergonomix2 diamond implant, offering a scarless breast with a small incision made in the underarm. The implant is one of the major differences between Mia and Preservé. It is a patented new shape, breaking a decades-old dichotomy of round and teardrop implants. This shape, which is symmetrical, has more volume in the middle, creating more projection with a smaller volume implant. This shape is the first of its kind, truly innovative, and has many usage opportunities as we expand our efforts in minimally invasive.

Speaker #3: This shape is the first of its kind, truly innovative, and has many usage opportunities as we expand our efforts in minimally invasive. The softness and lightweight design allow for an augmentation that aims to integrate so well with the body that women.

Peter Caldini: The softness and lightweight design allow for an augmentation that aims to integrate so well with the body that women forget they have implants. Also of note, we developed a patented automated injector for Mia, replacing the current manual insertion process used in traditional breast augmentations. Today, implants are generally placed either by hand or through a device known as a funnel. The injector offers a far more seamless process and simplifies what can be one of the more challenging parts of the surgery, and over time could become a new standard in the industry. As you learn about our technology, it's worth reading the supplement on Preservé that has been accepted and should be published later this year in the "Aesthetic Surgery Journal." This is a compendium of peer-reviewed clinical data specifically on breast tissue preservation and the techniques.

Speaker #3: This is a compendium of peer-reviewed clinical data specifically on breast tissue preservation and the techniques. It focuses on the science, anatomy, and clinical outcomes of breast tissue preservation and our hope is that it will become foundational learning for plastic surgeons as they adopt PreserVe.

Peter Caldini: It focuses on the science, anatomy, and clinical outcomes of breast tissue preservation, and our hope is that it will become foundational learning for plastic surgeons as they adopt Preservé. Minimally invasive is being very well received by the market, with adoption even at higher price points. Two things are happening here. First, minimally invasive options are bringing new patients into the category that have never previously considered a breast augmentation. Second, patients already considering breast augmentation are opting for this procedure even though it's more expensive. For Establishment Labs in the United States, Preservé commands a premium of more than two times that a traditional breast augmentation procedure. Not only are we expanding the market, but it appears that women are deciding to get the procedure much faster than they traditionally have.

Speaker #3: Not only are we expanding the market, but it appears that women are deciding to get the procedure much faster than they traditionally have. Historically, women could take years between their first thoughts of having a breast augmentation and actually getting surgery.

Peter Caldini: Historically, women could take years between their first thoughts of having a breast augmentation and actually getting a surgery. The appeal of minimally invasive is shortening that consideration time. Since launch, we have seen any number of cases where women take months, and in some cases days, from consideration to surgery. We believe we're still in the very early stages of this opportunity. There is significant potential for market expansion, and we expect it to become an increasingly important driver for our growth in the years ahead. Turning to the quarter, the United States continues to be the primary growth engine for our business, now representing 36.6% of total company revenue, up from 20% a year ago. Another milestone, in Q2, we surpassed 100,000 Motiva implants in the US market in under 21 months since launch.

Speaker #3: Turning to the quarter, the United States continues to be the primary growth engine for our business, now representing 36.6% of total company revenue up from 20% a year ago.

Speaker #3: Another milestone in Q2, we surpassed $100,000 Motiva implants in the U.S. market in under 21 months since launch. We are still early in our U.S.

Peter Caldini: We are still early in our US journey, crossing 100,000 implants is an important reminder of how quickly the market has embraced our technology and how much opportunity remains ahead of us. What continues to stand out is the depth of adoption we're seeing. At the end of the quarter, we had surpassed 2,000 accounts in the United States. Many accounts have multiple surgeons using our implants. While we continue to open new accounts, an increasing percentage of our growth is now being driven by utilization within existing accounts. As surgeons become more familiar with the clinical data, products, differentiators, and patient outcomes, we are seeing adoption strengthen, particularly among early adopters and high volume accounts where Motiva now represents a significant percentage of their practice.

Speaker #3: While we continue to open new accounts and increasing percentage of our growth is now being driven by utilization within existing accounts, as surgeons become more familiar with the clinical data products differentiators and patient outcomes, we are seeing adoption strengthen, particularly among early adopters and high-volume accounts.

Speaker #3: Motiva now represents a significant percentage of their practice. One surgeon who adopted Motiva immediately following FDA approval shared that he has completed approximately 300 Motiva cases in his first year and has now converted nearly his entire augmentation practice.

Peter Caldini: One surgeon who adopted Motiva immediately following FDA approval shared that he has completed approximately 300 Motiva cases in his first year and has now converted nearly his entire augmentation practice. Another surgeon shared that for the first time in his more than 25-year career, patients are actively requesting Motiva by name, and that increased demand is translating directly into higher surgery volumes. We're also seeing that even when women have a warranty from another company that offers a free replacement, they are paying for Motiva implants themselves. These experiences seem to be representative of what we're increasingly hearing across our customer base. Late adopters are also beginning to show interest, particularly as patients' demand for Motiva continues to build.

Speaker #3: We're also seeing that even when women have a warranty, from another company that offers a free replacement, they are paying for Motiva implants themselves.

Speaker #3: These experiences seem to be representative of what we're increasingly hearing across our customer base. Late adopters are also beginning to show interest particularly in as patients demand for Motiva continues to build.

Speaker #3: In a category where patients historically have rarely asked for a specific implant brand, 75% of surgeons now report that patients are asking. And 93% of the time that brand is Motiva.

Peter Caldini: In a category where patients historically have rarely asked for a specific implant brand, 75% of surgeons now report that patients are asking, and 93% of the time that brand is Motiva. That level of consumer awareness remains highly unusual in breast aesthetics and continues to be a powerful driver of adoption, making Motiva increasingly difficult for practices to ignore. Preservé is also emerging as an important growth driver in our US business. We ended the quarter with over 300 surgeons trained and certified on the procedure, which is more than 50% above our original expectations for the year. There is no shortage of surgeon interest, they now have multiple training pathways available both in the United States and our global innovation hub in Costa Rica, and we continue to see relatively quick adoption following certification.

Speaker #3: That level of consumer awareness remains highly unusual in breast aesthetics and continues to be a powerful driver of adoption. Making Motiva increasingly difficult for practices to ignore.

Speaker #3: PreserVe is also emerging as an important growth driver in our U.S. business. We ended the quarter with over 300 surgeons trained and certified on their procedure, which is more than 50% above our original expectations for the year.

Speaker #3: There is no shortage of surgeon interest and they now have multiple training pathways available, both in the United States and are global innovation hub in Costa Rica.

Speaker #3: And we continue to see relatively quick adoption following certification. The benefits of PreserVe are showing up across both traditional and digital media outlets. In the limited time that PreserVe has been on the market, it has been mentioned as the new breast augmentation option commonly discussed on social media platforms and in the media.

Peter Caldini: The benefits of Preservé are showing up across both traditional and digital media outlets. In the limited time that Preservé has been on the market, it has been mentioned as the new breast augmentation option commonly discussed on social media platforms and in the media, including in feature articles from People Magazine and Allure, as well as The Zoe Report and The Washington Post, to name a few. Surgeons report they are charging between 30% to 50% more for Preservé procedure than for their traditional breast augmentations, confirming that patients value these benefits and are willing to pay for them. It is increasingly early in the launch to see this kind of market expansion, our success is suggestive that we are only in the early innings of something that could fundamentally change the category.

Speaker #3: It is increasingly early in the launch to see this kind of market expansion, and our success is suggestive that we are only in the early innings of something that could fundamentally change the category.

Speaker #3: Also interesting, we are hearing from some surgeons that because of the very limited downtime with PreserVe, they have booked surgeries throughout the summer, which is unusual because the summer months are traditionally slower for breast augmentations.

Peter Caldini: Also interesting, we are hearing from some surgeons that because of the very limited downtime with Preservé, they have booked surgeries throughout the summer, which is unusual because of the summer months are traditionally slower for breast augmentations. One of our earliest adopters performed five breast augmentations in July and August last year. This year, he's already scheduled for 50 in the same time period. As we have discussed previously, a major focus of our strategy is expanding and strengthening our direct markets outside the US, and we are pleased with the progress we continue to make. Over the past year, we have not only strengthened leadership across several of our key markets, but also prioritized resources in those markets, and those investments are translating into stronger growth. Growth was broad-based across many of our regions, driven by strong execution and an increase in the number of accounts.

Speaker #3: Growth was broad-based across many of our regions driven by strong execution and an increase in the number of accounts Europe where we have the most direct markets delivered 16% growth and was especially strong in Italy, Germany, and the UK.

Peter Caldini: Europe, where we have the most direct markets, delivered 16% growth and was especially strong in Italy, Germany, and the UK. In Latin America, Argentina continued its positive trajectory from Q1, while Brazil maintained its path of stability, driven predominantly by our minimally invasive platform. Our minimally invasive platform remains an important contributor to growth outside the United States and continues to support adoption across the more than 40 markets worldwide. In general, demand trends remained stable throughout the quarter, despite continued macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty across several regions. Our exposure to the most volatile markets remains limited, and we continue to benefit from a highly diversified global business. As we look ahead, we continue to advance our innovation pipeline. This includes our reconstruction submission with the FDA, the expansion of our US product matrix through smaller implant sizes, and the continued development of GEM.

Speaker #3: All of these will help us take market share and expand the market. With that, I'll turn the call over to Sandra to discuss our financial results in more detail.

Peter Caldini: All of these will help us take market share and expand the market. With that, I'll turn the call over to Sandra to discuss our financial results in more detail.

Speaker #1: Thank you, Peter. The second quarter was another important step forward financially. We continue to deliver strong, top-line growth while expanding margins and generating positive adjusted EBITDA with improving cash flow.

Sandra Harris: Thank you, Peter. The Q2 was another important step forward financially. We continued to deliver strong top-line growth while expanding margins and generating positive adjusted EBITDA with improving cash flow. As our US business and minimally invasive platform continue to scale, we're seeing increasing operating leverage across the organization. Total revenue for the Q2 was $67.5 million, an increase of 31.7% compared to the Q2 of 2025. In the United States, revenue was $24.7 million, representing growth of 140.9% compared to the prior year. The US now represents 36.6% of total company revenue and continues to be our fastest-growing region. Growth was driven by continued adoption of Motiva and increasing contribution from our minimally invasive platform. Geographically, our business outside the United States continues to perform well. OUS revenue was $42.8 million during the quarter, representing growth of 4.4% over the Q2 of 2025.

Speaker #1: As our U.S. business and minimally invasive platform continue to scale, we're seeing increasing operating leverage across the organization. Total revenue for the second quarter was $67.5 million and increased of 31.7% compared to the second quarter of 2025.

Speaker #1: OUS revenue was $42.8 million during the quarter representing growth of 4.4% over the second quarter 2025. Our minimally invasive platform generated a $12.1 million in revenue during the quarter and continues to perform ahead of our original expectations.

Sandra Harris: Our minimally invasive platform generated $12.1 million in revenue during the quarter and continues to perform ahead of our original expectations. Gross profit for Q2 was $47.7 million, or 70.6% of revenue, compared to 68.8% in the prior year period. Gross margin expansion was primarily driven by the increasing contribution of our higher margin US and OUS direct markets, favorable product mix, and the continued growth of our minimally invasive platform. Operating expenses were $52 million for the quarter, including $2.2 million of one-time charges related to restructuring and debt refinancing. Excluding these charges, underlying operating expenses remain well controlled, increasing modestly despite revenue growth of nearly 32%, reflecting continued operating leverage across the business. Adjusted EBITDA improved by $12.2 million to income of $3.7 million, compared to a loss of $8.5 million in the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA improved by 12.2 million to income of $3.7 million compared to a loss of $8.5 million in the prior year period.

Speaker #1: We ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $71.2 million a sequential increase of 3.1 million from Q1 and 16.5 million higher than the same quarter last year and generated positive overall cash flow.

Sandra Harris: We ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $71.2 million, a sequential increase of $3.1 million from Q1, and $16.5 million higher than the same quarter last year, and generated positive overall cash flow. This milestone reflects the strong progress we have made improving profitability, expanding margins, and driving greater operating efficiency throughout the organization. Importantly, we have sufficient liquidity to execute our strategy and continue investing in future growth opportunities without the need for future equity raises. Given our strong H1 performance and continued momentum across the business, we are increasing our full year revenue guidance to between $269 million and $271 million. We expect the US business to be the primary driver of growth, while our OUS business remains healthy and diversified.

Speaker #1: We expect the U.S. business to be the primary driver of growth while our OUS business remains healthy and diversified. As we look to the third quarter, I'd like to remind investors it is historically the softest quarter of the in the industry reflecting the summer vacation period.

Sandra Harris: As we look to Q3, I'd like to remind investors it is historically the softest quarter in the industry, reflecting the summer vacation period. We expect the US business to remain strong, and our OUS business should reflect the normal seasonal pattern. As always, we expect our strongest quarter to be Q4. We remain very encouraged by the performance of the business, the continued momentum in the United States, the growing contribution of our minimally invasive platform, and the increasing profitability profile of Establishment Labs. Now, I'll turn the call back over to Peter.

Speaker #1: We expect the U.S. business to remain strong, and our OUS business should reflect the normal seasonal pattern. As always, we expect our strongest quarter to be the fourth.

Speaker #1: Now, I'll turn the call back over to Peter.

Speaker #2: Thank you, Sandra. As you've heard today, we continue to execute well across the business. The U.S. remains a significant growth driver. Our OUS markets continue to perform well.

Peter Caldini: Thank you, Sandra. As you've heard today, we continue to execute well across the business. The US remains a significant growth driver. Our OUS markets continue to perform well. Our minimally invasive platform is gaining momentum globally, and we have a clear path to being free cash flow positive. At the same time, we continue to advance a pipeline that should support growth for many years to come. While we are proud of what we've accomplished so far, we believe the opportunity ahead remains substantially larger than what we have achieved to date. Operator, we're now ready to take questions.

Speaker #3: One moment, please, for your first question. Your first question comes from the line of Josh Jennings from TD Cowen. Please go ahead.

Speaker #4: Hi, good morning Peter and Sandra. Thanks for taking the questions and great to see another strong quarter, especially the U.S. momentum. I wanted to appreciate your comments on Mia during the call so far.

Josh Jennings: Hi, good morning, Peter and Sandra. Thanks for taking the questions and great to see another strong quarter, especially the US momentum. Appreciate your comments on Mia during the call so far. Our checks have suggested that there's some optimism in US plastic surgeons that Mia ultimately could produce an entire new category in the aesthetic space, where you could transition breast augmentation from a surgery to an injectable procedure. Is there any plans to drive that notion and just that segmentation here in the international markets where you've launched then ultimately in the US, and how does that all play out?

Speaker #4: Our checks have suggested that there's some optimism in the U.S. plastic surgeons that Mia ultimately could produce an entire new category for in the aesthetic space where you're transitioning breast augmentation from a surgery to an injectable procedure.

Speaker #4: I mean, is there any plans to kind of drive that notion and just that segmentation here in the international markets where you've launched? And then ultimately in the U.S.

Speaker #4: And how does that all play out?

Speaker #2: Yeah, thank you, Josh. You know, listen, I think what we've always highlighted around the minimally invasive platform and this is truly an innovation that in a category that hasn't been innovation and, you know, Mia as you highlighted is just outside the U.S.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thank you, Josh. Listen, I think what we've always highlighted around the minimally invasive platform, this is truly an innovation in a category that hasn't seen innovation. Mia, as you highlighted, is just outside the US. We've had good traction. It's also a key driver for the development of Preservé. Part of this entire minimally invasive platform, I think is a significant growth driver for us. It brings in a number of new patients to the category. We've seen that through market research in the US, it's about 15% with Preservé, outside the US, similar type of numbers. It does address a number of the barriers that are preventing women from doing a breast augmentation. When you talk about minimal anesthesia, you talk about also those smaller scars and quicker recovery.

Speaker #2: We've had good traction. It's also a key driver for the development of Preserve. So part of this entire minimally invasive platform, you know, I think is a significant growth driver for us.

Speaker #2: It brings in a number of new patients to the category. We've seen that through market research in the U.S.; it's about 15% with Preserve outside the U.S.

Speaker #2: similar type of numbers. Because it does address a number of the barriers that are preventing women from doing a breast augmentation when you talk about minimal anesthesia.

Speaker #2: You talk about also those smaller scars and quicker recovery. So it'll continue to be a key driver for us and we're just in really the early stages of that development and we're seeing that impact in the U.S.

Peter Caldini: It'll continue to be a key driver for us and we're just in really the early stages of that development, and we're seeing that impact in the US and also outside the US.

Speaker #2: and also outside the U.S.

Speaker #4: Thanks for that. And I know I'm focused on the pipeline here with my questions, but you referenced GEM on the call so far. You know, it seems like there's a potential for maybe getting too aggressive with our assumptions, but a potential for initial U.S.

Josh Jennings: Thanks for that. I know I'm focused on the pipeline here with my questions, but you referenced GEM on the call so far. It seems like there's a potential for, I mean, maybe getting too aggressive with our assumptions, but a potential for initial US kind of commercial, OUS, excuse me, commercial launch maybe next year. Any more details you can provide on where that development program stands and any kind of regulatory or commercial milestones we should have on our catalyst calendar? Thanks for taking the questions.

Speaker #4: kind of commercial OUS, excuse me, commercial launch maybe next year. Any more details you can provide on where that development program stands and any kind of regulatory or commercial milestones we should have on our catalyst calendar?

Speaker #4: Thanks for taking the questions.

Speaker #2: Yeah, so Josh, so regarding GEM, you know, we see this as a tremendous opportunity. Really leveraging a lot of the technology from the minimally invasive platform in really providing a safer alternative also with more predictable results to the traditional Brazilian butt lift.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Josh, regarding GEM, we see this as a tremendous opportunity, really leveraging a lot of the technology from the minimally invasive platform In really providing a safer alternative, also with more predictable results to the traditional Brazilian butt lift. Where we are in that process is, we're doing a clinical study in Costa Rica. We expect next year in the back half to do an early experience in Latin America. Right now we're really working through what that regulatory pathway is going to be for the US as well as OUS, primarily in Europe. We're very pleased with the progress we've made so far. It's a very differentiated technology and we see this as very much an on-tap market.

Speaker #2: So where we are in that process is we're doing a clinical study in Costa Rica. We expect next year in the back half to do an early experience in Latin America and right now we're really working through what that regulatory pathway is going to be for the U.S.

Speaker #2: as well as OUS primarily in Europe. But we're very pleased with the progress we made so far. I mean, it's a very differentiated technology.

Speaker #2: And, you know, we see this as very much an untapped market. But in terms of timing for us, let's say the U.S., we have so many things that we're going to be driving growth over the next couple of years.

Peter Caldini: In terms of timing for, let's say, the US, we have so many things that we're going to be driving growth over the next couple of years. We don't see that really as a contributor in the US until 2028 and beyond, but we're still working through what that regulatory pathway is going to be.

Speaker #2: We don't see that really as a contributor in the U.S. until 2028 and beyond. But we're still working through what that regulatory pathway is going to be.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Sam Eber from U.S. Bancorp. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Sam Eiber from U.S. Bancorp. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Sam Eiber from U.S. Bancorp. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking the questions here and congrats on the nice quarter. I want to come back to Preserve in the U.S.

Sam Eiber: Hi. Good morning. Thanks for taking the questions here. Congrats on the nice quarter. I want to come back to Preservé in the US. 300 surgeons now certified. Curious what you're hearing from the field in terms of utilization and adoption, their own plan to expand Preservé within their practice, generally thoughts around the procedure and what it can mean for the US business over the back half of the year.

Speaker #5: 300 surgeons now certified. Curious what you're hearing from the field in terms of utilization and adoption. Their own plans to expand Preserve within their practice.

Speaker #5: And generally thoughts around the procedure and what it can mean for the U.S. business over the back half of the year.

Speaker #2: Yeah, thanks, Sam. I mean, it's pretty clear we're, you know, we're off to a great start with Preserve. There's significant demand. You know, I think our original target was around 200 surgeons.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thanks, Sam Eiber. It's pretty clear we're off to a great start with Preservé. There's significant demand. I think our original target was around 200 surgeons. We quickly surpassed that. We're really expanding our capacity in terms of training. There's no shortage of surgeons that are interested. What we're finding is that, as soon as they're certified, it's very quick adoption in terms of the initial ordering, and then it's a process of working through their schedules and getting the right patients. We fully expect that this is going to continue to be a key driver for our growth in the back half of this year. We're targeting to train approximately 500 surgeons for the full year 2026. This is really driven by tremendous demand in the marketplace, and it is addressing a significant barrier that patients have with doing a breast augmentation.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thanks, Sam. It's pretty clear we're off to a great start with Preservé. There's significant demand. I think our original target was around 200 surgeons. We quickly surpassed that. We're really expanding our capacity in terms of training. There's no shortage of surgeons that are interested. What we're finding is that, as soon as they're certified, it's very quick adoption in terms of the initial ordering, and then it's a process of working through their schedules and getting the right patients. We fully expect that this is going to continue to be a key driver for our growth in the back half of this year. We're targeting to train approximately 500 surgeons for the full year 2026. This is really driven by tremendous demand in the marketplace, and it is addressing a significant barrier that patients have with doing a breast augmentation.

Speaker #2: You know, we quickly surpassed that. We're really expanding our capacity in terms of training. So there's no shortage of surgeons that are interested. What we're finding is that, you know, as soon as they're certified, it's very quick adoption in terms of the original, the initial ordering.

Speaker #2: And then it's a process of working through their schedules and getting the right patients. We fully expect that this is going to be continued to be a key driver for our growth in the back half of this year.

Speaker #2: We're targeting to train approximately 500 surgeons for the full year, 2026. And, you know, this is really driven by tremendous demand in the marketplace and, you know, it is addressing a significant barrier that patients have with doing a breast augmentation and, you know, that's really been playing out in what we're seeing in the marketplace.

Peter Caldini: That's really been playing out in what we're seeing in the marketplace.

Speaker #5: Okay, really helpful. Maybe if I could just squeeze in a quick follow-up. The global minimally invasive revenue for the quarter, $12 million, certainly past our expectations.

Sam Eiber: Okay. Really helpful. Maybe if I could just squeeze in a quick follow-up. The global minimally invasive revenue for the quarter, $12 million, certainly passed our expectations. As I think about the prior $35 million guidance, it seems like you're on pace to achieve well beyond that. I guess, any updated thoughts on how we should be thinking about that number?

Speaker #5: You know, as I think about the prior 35 million guidance, it seems like you're on pace to, you know, achieve well beyond that. I guess any updated thoughts on how we should be thinking about that number?

Speaker #6: Yeah, Sam, I think we said over 35 million and, you know, what we've said recently is that we're going to be approaching for the full year about 15% of our revenue.

Sandra Harris: Yeah, Sam. I think we said over $35 million, what we've said recently is that we're going to be approaching, for the full year, about 15% of our revenue. I think that depending upon how you look at our guidance, that gives you the guide for minimally invasive going forward.

Speaker #6: So, you know, I think that depending upon how you look at our guidance, that gives you the guide for minimally invasive going forward.

Speaker #5: Okay, great. Thanks for taking the questions.

Sam Eiber: Okay, great. Thanks for taking the questions.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Mason Carico from Stephens. Your line is now open.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Mason Carrico from Stephens. Your line is now open.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Mason Carrico from Stephens. Your line is now open.

Speaker #4: Hey guys, thanks for taking the questions here. Could you give us a sense of Motiva Mix among Preserve, trained surgeons compared to that of an untrained one?

Mason Carrico: Hey, guys. Thanks for

Peter Caldini: Sure

Mason Carrico: taking the questions here. Could you give a sense of Motiva mix among Preservé-trained surgeons compared to that of an untrained one? Have you seen Preservé certification lift overall Motiva mix or share at that account? I guess, longer term, what percentage of your US volumes do you think could ultimately be Preservé?

Speaker #4: Have you seen Preserve certification lift overall Motiva Mix or share it at that account? And I guess, you know, longer term, what percentage of your U.S.

Speaker #4: volumes do you think could ultimately be Preserve?

Speaker #2: Yeah, so thanks. So we are seeing in the accounts, I mean, there's such strong interest in Preserve. It's truly a unique innovation in the marketplace that's really been starving for innovation.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thanks. We are seeing in the accounts, there's such strong interest in Preservé. It's truly a unique innovation in the marketplace that's really been starving for innovation. We're seeing strong interest and a number of surgeons are really, once they get trained and accustomed to using Preservé, a lot of them see this as really the future of the industry, and it will continue to be a bigger part of the practice. It generates a significant revenue opportunities for them. We see that over time, that will continue to be a bigger part of that market. In terms of the split, I don't Sandra?

Speaker #2: So, you know, there's really we're seeing strong interest and a number of surgeons are really once they get trained and accustomed to using Preserve, you know, a lot of them see this as really the future of the industry and it will continue to be a bigger part of the practice.

Speaker #2: It's certainly it generates a significant revenue opportunities for them. So we see that over time that we'll continue to be a bigger part of that market.

Speaker #2: In terms of the split, I don't thunder.

Speaker #6: Yeah, I mean, in terms of the split, I don't think that we've really talked about the split between the U.S. and the OUS, but it's going to be a very important part of our ability to expand the market and to take continue to take market share in the U.S.

Sandra Harris: Yeah. In terms of the split, I don't know that we've really talked about the split between the US and the OUS, but it's going to be a very important part of our ability to expand the market and to continue to take market share in the US.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Caitlin Roberts from Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Caitlin Roberts from Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Caitlin Roberts from Canaccord Genuity. Please go ahead.

Speaker #1: Great. Thanks so much for taking the question and congrats on a great quarter. Would love to touch. On Recon. Have you had any convos with the FDA on the Recon indication and updated expectations for this approval timeline?

Caitlin Roberts: Great. Thanks so much for taking the question, and congrats on a great quarter. Would love to touch on ReCon. Have you had any convos with the FDA on the ReCon indication and updated expectations for this approval timeline? How many hospitals are you now in this for? Thank you.

Speaker #1: And how many hospitals are you now in the Florida? Thank you.

Speaker #2: Yeah, thanks, Caitlin. You know, obviously Recon is a tremendous opportunity for us. It doubles the PAM for us in the U.S. and we fully expect that have the same level of success in Recon in the U.S.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thanks, Caitlin. Obviously, ReCon is a tremendous opportunity for us. It doubles the TAM for us in the US. We fully expect to have the same level of success in ReCon in the US that we've experienced in augmentation. In terms of the feedback, we have heard back from the FDA. We're in the process of responding to what we consider some routine questions. What I think is very positive, they've now started the BIMO audits of our clinical study sites, which I think is a normal part of the process, and I think it's a good indication that things are progressing well. In terms of the actual approval timing, it's really up to the FDA. What we're seeing, everything is positive, moving in the right direction.

Speaker #2: that we've experienced in augmentation. So in terms of the feedback we have heard back from the FDA, we're in the process of a responding to what we consider some routine questions.

Speaker #2: You know, what I think is very positive, they now started the BMO audits of our clinical study sites, which I think is a normal part of the process.

Speaker #2: And I think it's a good indication that things are progressing well. In terms of the actual approval timing, I mean, it's really up to the FDA.

Speaker #2: But what we're seeing everything is positive moving in the right direction. And then just to remind everybody, we don't really expect from a planning standpoint to achieve material revenue in Recon until 2027.

Peter Caldini: Just to remind everybody, we don't really expect from a planning standpoint to achieve material revenue in ReCon until 2027.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Joan Wunsch from Citi. Your line is now open.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Joanne Wuensch from Citi. Your line is now open.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Joanne Wuensch from Citi. Your line is now open.

Jane Marie Lie: Hello, this is Jane Marie Lie on for Joanne from Citi. Thanks for the question. At this H1 mark, could you provide more color on your expectations for the H2 of the year? I know it's a bit early, but for 2027, how should we think about that? Do you have any kind of color on that as well?

Jane-Marie Lai: Hello, this is Jane-Marie Lai on for Joanne from Citi. Thanks for the question. At this H1 mark, could you provide more color on your expectations for the H2 of the year? I know it's a bit early, but for 2027, how should we think about that? Do you have any kind of color on that as well?

Speaker #7: Hello, this is Jane Marie Lai on for Joanne from Citi. Thanks for the question. At this half you mark, what are could you provide more color on your expectations for the second half of the year?

Speaker #7: And I know it's a bit early, but for 2027, how should we think about that? And do you have any kind of color on that as well?

Speaker #2: Yeah, so I'm not sure I've fully heard the question. My understanding is what's our expectation in terms of the back half of the year?

Peter Caldini: Yeah. I'm not sure I fully heard the question. My understanding is what's our expectation in terms of the H2 of the year. Listen, I think we're going to continue to see the strong momentum that we've experienced in the H1, especially with the US, also in terms of how we're driving growth in our direct markets. We expect that momentum to continue in the H2 of the year. I think there's significant continued growth opportunities with our platforms and the different initiatives that we're driving. We haven't really set any guidance as it relates to 2027. I'll pass that over to Sandra.

Speaker #2: You know, listen, I think we're going to continue to see the strong momentum. That we've experienced in the first half, you know, especially with the U.S., but also in terms of how we're driving growth in our direct markets.

Speaker #2: We expect that momentum to continue in the back half of the year, and, you know, I think there's significant continued growth opportunities with our platforms and the different initiatives that we're driving.

Speaker #2: We haven't really set any guidance as it relates to 2027, but I'll pass that over to Sandro.

Speaker #6: Yeah, just as it relates to this year, I'll just remind you of our seasonality and we do anticipate that our fourth quarter is always the strongest quarter of the year with a third quarter being impacted by some seasonal impacts around the summer and vacation periods in both our OUS business and our U.S.

Sandra Harris: Yeah, just as it relates to this year, I'll just remind you of our seasonality. We do anticipate that our Q4 is always the strongest quarter of the year, with the Q3 being impacted by some seasonal impact around the summer and vacation periods in both our OUS business and our US business. What we did is we have raised our guidance to $269 to $271. In regard to 2027, the only information we've provided to date is that we do expect that revenue next year would be around the 25% growth mark.

Sandra Harris: Yeah, just as it relates to this year, I'll just remind you of our seasonality. We do anticipate that our Q4 is always the strongest quarter of the year, with the Q3 being impacted by some seasonal impact around the summer and vacation periods in both our OUS business and our US business. What we did is we have raised our guidance to $269 to 271. In regard to 2027, the only information we've provided to date is that we do expect that revenue next year would be around the 25% growth mark.

Speaker #6: business. What we did is we have raised our guidance to 269 to 271. And then in regard to 2027, the only information we provided to date is that, you know, we do expect that revenue next year would be around the 25% growth mark.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Anthony Petrone from Mizuho Financial Group. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Anthony Petrone from Mizuho Financial Group. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Anthony Petrone from Mizuho Financial Group. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Thanks. And congrats on the strong print here. Maybe one on Preserve competitive dynamics and then pricing. Just on Preserve, when you think about site adoption in the U.S.

Anthony Petrone (Mizuho Fin: Thanks, and congrats on the strong print here. Maybe one on Preservé competitive dynamics and then pricing. Just on Preservé, when you think about site adoption in the US specifically, one of the med tech phenomenons, for instance, with da Vinci Surgical, you sort of have da Vinci in your practice in the early days, and it represents a competitive advantage for that site. That site then gains share from its competitors. To what extent do you think Preservé is going to allow surgeon sites to have competitive advantages versus its competitors? When do you think that tipping point actually happens? Just on unit economics, can you remind us where Preservé sits per case versus Motiva? When you think about reconstruction, how pricing will settle out there? Thanks.

Speaker #5: specifically, you know, one of the med tech phenomenons, for instance, with DaVinci Surgical, you sort of have DaVinci in your practice in the early days and it represents a competitive advantage for that site.

Speaker #5: That site then gains share from its competitors. So what to what extent do you think Preserve is going to allow surgeon sites to have competitive advantages versus its competitors?

Speaker #5: When do you think that tipping point actually happens? And then just on unit economics, can you remind us where Preserve sits per case versus Motiva?

Speaker #5: And when you think about reconstruction, how pricing will settle out there? Thanks.

Speaker #2: All right. So thanks, Anthony. In terms of Preserve, you know, as we highlighted, we're really in the early innings in the U.S. But the feedback has been incredibly positive.

Peter Caldini: All right. Thanks, Anthony. In terms of Preservé, as we highlighted, we're really in the early innings in the US, the feedback has been incredibly positive from the surgeons. We continually get approached by surgeons, we expect that to continue to grow. As I mentioned previously, we're building out or expanding our capacity to do the training. For us, I think that's going to be the surgeons that are using Preservé, it provides them a significant competitive advantage in the market, I think that's where such a strong interest is. We've seen from market research that 15% of women who have done Preservé were not initially considering doing a breast augmentation until they heard about Preservé. It really has the potential to be a category driver and bring additional patients to the surgeon.

Speaker #2: From the surgeons, we continually get approached by surgeons and we expect that to continue to grow. You know, as I mentioned in previously, we're building out or expanding our capacity to do the training.

Speaker #2: So, you know, for us, I think that's going to be the surgeons that are using Preserve. It provides them a significant competitive advantage in the market.

Speaker #2: And I think that's where such a strong interest is. I mean, we've seen from market research that 15% of women who have done Preserve were not initially considering doing a breast augmentation until they heard about Preserve.

Speaker #2: So it really is has the potential to be a category driver and bring additional patients to the surgeon. So we see that as a competitive advantage.

Peter Caldini: We see that as a competitive advantage, that's probably why we have such significant demand from different surgeons. In terms of the ReCon, we highlighted we're making good progress from a regulatory standpoint. This clearly is a significant increase in terms of the ASP in the ReCon segment. It also really doubles our total addressable market in the US. We're very pleased with the progress we're making there. I think we've already laid a decent foundation with the Motiva Flora, just getting our foot in the door in a number of facilities, we still have to go through that back process.

Speaker #2: And that's probably why we have such significant demand from different surgeons. In terms of the Recon we highlighted, we're making good progress from a regulatory standpoint.

Speaker #2: You know, this clearly is a significant increase in terms of the ASP and the Recon segment. It also really doubles our total addressable market in the U.S.

Speaker #2: So we're very pleased with the progress we're making there. I think we've already laid a decent foundation with the Flora, just getting our foot in the door in a number of facilities, but we still have to go through that back process.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Mike Madsen from NETAM and Company. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Mike Matson from Needham & Company. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Mike Matson from Needham & Company. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Yeah, thanks. So you know, I heard the growth kind of 4-ish percent outside the U.S., but just curious if you're seeing or saw any sort of impact from the Iran war and either the Middle East or the broader international business in the quarter?

Peter Caldini: Yeah, thanks. I heard the growth is kind of 4% outside the U.S., but just curious if you're seeing or saw any sort of impact from the Iran War in either the Middle East or the broader international business in the quarter. Yeah. Thanks, Mike. We've had, I think, very solid growth outside the U.S., and a lot of that's been driven by our direct markets, in particular in Europe. We've achieved 16% growth this quarter versus the same quarter last year. Very pleased with that. That's very important for us because we prioritize those markets. These are our markets where we have better economics. We've made a number of leadership changes. We're also increasing the resources, and it's really reflected in terms of our performance.

Mike Matson: Yeah, thanks. I heard the growth is kind of 4% outside the U.S., but just curious if you're seeing or saw any sort of impact from the Iran War in either the Middle East or the broader international business in the quarter.

Speaker #2: Yeah, so thanks, Mike. I mean, we've had, I think, very solid growth outside the U.S., and a lot of that's been driven by our direct markets, particularly in Europe.

Peter Caldini: Yeah. Thanks, Mike. We've had, I think, very solid growth outside the U.S., and a lot of that's been driven by our direct markets, in particular in Europe. We've achieved 16% growth this quarter versus the same quarter last year. Very pleased with that. That's very important for us because we prioritize those markets. These are our markets where we have better economics. We've made a number of leadership changes. We're also increasing the resources, and it's really reflected in terms of our performance.

Speaker #2: You know, we've achieved 16% growth this quarter versus the same year, the same quarter last year. So very pleased with that. And that's very important for us because we prioritize those markets.

Speaker #2: These are our markets where we have better economics. We've made a number of leadership changes. We're also increasing the resources. And it's really reflected in terms of our performance.

Peter Caldini: What we're trying to do is de-emphasize our dependency on the distributors, and I think we're really establishing that, and I think we've been very effective in doing it. Specifically, I would say across most of our distributor markets, I think demand has been steady. The one outlier is what you highlighted is the Middle East, obviously with the conflict there. We have had orders, but it's at a much lower level than what we've experienced in the past. We don't expect that to change for the remainder of the year. This is, in terms of the spillover in other markets, we haven't really seen that, but we're going to continue to monitor that very closely and course correct where necessary.

Speaker #2: And you know, what we're trying to do is de-emphasize our dependency on the distributors. And I think that's really been we're really establishing that.

Speaker #2: And I think we've been very effective in doing it. Specifically, I would say across most of our distributor markets, I think demand has been steady.

Speaker #2: But the one outlier is what you highlighted is the Middle East. You know, obviously with the conflict there, we have had orders, but it's at a much lower level than what we've experienced in the past.

Speaker #2: And we don't expect that to change for the remainder of the year. But this is in terms of the spillover in other markets, we haven't really seen that, but we're going to continue to monitor that very closely.

Speaker #2: And course correct, we're necessary.

Speaker #6: And Mike, just as a reminder, Middle East is less than 5% of our revenue.

Sandra Harris: Mike, just as a reminder, Middle East is less than 5% of our revenue.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Alan Gong from JP Morgan. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Allen Gong from J.P. Morgan. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Allen Gong from JPMorgan. Please go ahead.

Speaker #5: Thanks for the question. I guess just on the cost front, you know, when we look at your operating spend for the quarter, you know, excluding the refinancing costs came in better than expected.

Allen Gong: Thanks for the question. I guess just on the cost front, when we look at your operating spend for the quarter, excluding the refinancing costs, came in better than expected. When we look forward, there's clearly a lot to invest into between continued launch of the minimally invasive platform and upcoming reconstruction, not to mention GEM. How should we think about the trajectory of SG&A and R&D spend in the balance of the year?

Speaker #5: But when we look forward, there's clearly a lot to invest into between continued launch of the minimally invasive platform and upcoming reconstruction, not to mention GEM.

Speaker #5: So how should we think about the trajectory of, you know, SG&A and R&D spend in the balance of the year?

Speaker #6: Yeah, thanks, Alan, for the question. And as you noted, we are making progress leveraging our operating expenses. As you noted, we had some one-time costs in the quarter that made our overall operating expenses around $52 million.

Sandra Harris: Yeah. Thanks, Allen, for the question. As you noted, we are making progress leveraging our operating expenses. As you noted, we had some one-time costs in the quarter that made our overall operating expenses around $52 million. When you adjust for that, we're seeing that basically we have leveraged our operating expense in relation to our sales growth. Single-digit growth in operating expenses with strong double-digit growth in revenue. As we look out, we have had a very healthy investment in our R&D efforts around our innovation pipeline, and I think we've been investing at the right rate to bring that innovation. To date, we're not anticipating any major increases to what we've previously seen. We think we're pacing our innovation pipeline appropriately, and we continue to look for areas of opportunity to leverage our expenses as we grow the business across the organization.

Speaker #6: But when you adjust for that, we're seeing that, you know, basically we have leveraged our operating expense in relation to our sales growth. So, you know, single-digit growth in operating expenses with strong double-digit growth in revenue.

Speaker #3: Your next question comes from the line of Matthew Taylor from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Operator 2: Your next question comes from the line of Matthew Taylor from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Operator: Your next question comes from the line of Matthew Taylor from Jefferies. Please go ahead.

Matthew Taylor: Hi. Good morning. Thanks for taking the question. I wanted to ask a follow-up on ReCon, and maybe I'll weave that into a 2027 question. I guess my question is, hypothetically, if you got ReCon approval on 1 January, I'm just interested in how quickly that would start to contribute and how quickly you can launch it. When you talked about 25% growth-ish next year, does that include a lot of ReCon contribution, or would you grow 25% without it? Thanks.

Speaker #5: Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking the question. I wanted to ask a follow-up on Recon and maybe I'll weave that into a 27 question.

Speaker #5: So I guess my question is, hypothetically, if you got Recon approval on January 1st, I'm just interested in how quickly that would start to contribute and how quickly you can launch it.

Speaker #5: And when you talked about 25% growth-ish next year, does that include a lot of Recon contribution or would you grow 25% without it? Thanks.

Speaker #6: Yeah, in regard to Recon, I think what we've said in the past is that, you know, we don't anticipate we would grow as rapidly as we have with our launch of our minimally invasive platform.

Sandra Harris: Yeah. In regard to ReCon, I think what we've said in the past is that we don't anticipate we would grow as rapidly as we have with our launch of our minimally invasive platform. It does take a longer period of time as we work with the hospitals. As far as what's in our guidance for this year, I think we've said that we don't have any anticipation for ReCon this year. As we work toward 2027, we'll provide more color on that based upon what we know from the FDA timing.

Speaker #6: It does take longer period of time as we work with the hospitals and as far as what's in our guidance for this year, I think we've said that we don't have any anticipation for Recon this year.

Speaker #6: And as we work toward 2027, we'll provide more color on that based upon what we know from the FDA timing.
