Recent Company History

Over the past few quarters, PAVmed and Lucid have repeatedly used earnings and business updates to highlight capital raises, liquidity and commercial progress.

Today’s Q1 2026 results for PAVmed continue this pattern of pairing operating updates with financing-driven runway extension.

Key Terms

fda 510(k) submission, gaap, non-gaap, ebitda, +4 more

8 terms

fda 510(k) submission regulatory

"ahead of a planned FDA 510(k) submission."

An FDA 510(k) submission is a regulatory filing to show a new medical device is sufficiently similar to an already-approved device so it can be marketed in the U.S. without undergoing the most extensive premarket review. For investors, 510(k) clearance is a key milestone that reduces regulatory uncertainty and shortens time to sales—think of it as proving a new product is close enough to an established model to be sold without rebuilding trust from scratch.

gaap financial

"presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)"

GAAP, or Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, are a set of standardized rules and guidelines that companies follow when preparing their financial statements. They ensure consistency, transparency, and comparability across different companies, making it easier for investors to understand and compare financial information accurately. This helps investors make informed decisions based on trustworthy and uniform financial reports.

View in glossary

non-gaap financial

"These non-GAAP financial measures include net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation"

Non-GAAP refers to financial measures that companies use to show their earnings or performance without including certain expenses or income that are often added back to give a different picture. It matters because it can make a company's results look better or more favorable, but it may also hide important costs, so investors need to look at both GAAP (official rules) and non-GAAP numbers to get a full understanding.

View in glossary

ebitda financial

"These non-GAAP financial measures include net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA)"

EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.

View in glossary

stock-based compensation financial

"stock-based compensation expense, loss on the issuance or modification of convertible securities"

Stock-based compensation is when a company pays employees, directors or consultants with shares or the right to buy shares instead of or in addition to cash. It matters to investors because issuing stock or options spreads ownership thinner (like cutting a pie into more slices), which can reduce each existing share’s claim on profits and can also change reported earnings; investors watch it to assess true cost of running the business and how management is incentivized.

View in glossary

warrant liability financial

"Change in fair value – warrant liability"

Warrant liability is the financial obligation a company records when it grants warrants—special options giving the holder the right to buy company shares at a set price in the future. It matters to investors because changes in this liability can affect a company's reported earnings and overall financial health, similar to how a pending contract can influence a company's future value.

form 10-q regulatory

"results ... were filed with the SEC on Form 10-Q on May 14, 2026"

A Form 10-Q is a detailed report that publicly traded companies are required to file with regulators three times a year, providing an update on their financial health and business activities. It is important for investors because it offers timely insights into a company's performance, helping them make informed decisions about buying or selling stocks. Think of it as a regular check-up report that shows how well a company is doing.

diluted financial

"per common share on a diluted basis."

Diluted describes how the value or claim of each existing share is reduced when additional shares could be issued or converted from things like stock options, warrants, or convertible debt. For investors it matters because diluted measures show a more complete picture of per-share earnings and ownership, like adding more slices to a pie so each slice becomes smaller — helping you judge how future share creation could lower your stake or earnings per share.

PAVmed Non-GAAP Measures

• To supplement our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), management provides certain non-GAAP financial measures of the Company's financial results. These non-GAAP financial measures include net loss before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and non-GAAP adjusted loss, which further adjusts EBITDA for stock-based compensation expense, loss on the issuance or modification of convertible securities, the periodic change in fair value of convertible securities, and loss on debt extinguishment. The foregoing non-GAAP financial measures of EBITDA and non-GAAP adjusted loss are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP.
• Non-GAAP financial measures are presented with the intent of providing greater transparency to the information used by us in our financial performance analysis and operational decision-making. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to assist investors, shareholders, and other readers of our financial statements in making comparisons to our historical financial results and analyzing the underlying performance of our results of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be, and should not be, a substitute for, considered superior to, considered separately from, or as an alternative to, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
• Non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance readers' overall understanding of our current financial results and to provide further information for comparative purposes. Management believes the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors by isolating certain expenses, gains, and losses that may not be indicative of our core operating results and business outlook. Specifically, the non-GAAP financial measures include non-GAAP adjusted loss, and its presentation is intended to help the reader understand the effect of the loss on the issuance or modification of convertible securities, the periodic change in fair value of convertible securities, the loss on debt extinguishment and the corresponding accounting for non-cash charges on financial performance. In addition, management believes non-GAAP financial measures enhance the comparability of results against prior periods.
• A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure of all non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:
