Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Conditions
The information in this report and the exhibit attached hereto are being furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1934 or the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference to such filing.
On May 15, 2026, we issued a press release regarding our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K.
Non-GAAP Measures
We make reference to non-GAAP financial information in this press release together with a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Specifically, we have provided non-GAAP Cash Operating Expenses and non-GAAP Cash Operating Loss measures that exclude Depreciation and non-cash Stock Compensation.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with insight into what is used by management to conduct a more meaningful and consistent comparison of our ongoing operating results and trends, compared with historical results. This presentation is also consistent with the measures management uses to measure the performance of ongoing operating results against prior periods and against our internally developed targets. There are limitations in using these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Investors and potential investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures in this press release.

Exhibit 99.1
Vycor Medical Releases Financial Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026
BOCA RATON, FL (May 15, 2026) – Vycor Medical, Inc. (“Vycor”) (OTCQB—VYCO), today announced financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
The Company operates through two business units: Vycor Medical, which produces the ViewSite™ Brain Access System (VBAS) for neurosurgeons; and NovaVision®, a business in development which offers therapy programs to help patients recover from visual disorders after stroke or other brain injury.
Company Highlights
| ● | The Vycor Medical division revenues increased by 5% over the same period in 2025 with most of the growth coming from international markets. |
| ● | Operating profit was $45,808 compared to an operating loss of $(12,806) for the 2025 period, and non-GAAP operating profit was $59,788 compared to $20,388 in the 2025 period. |
| ● | During 2026 to date, two new peer-reviewed studies were published on the ViewSite Brain Access System (VBAS), bringing the total published peer reviewed clinical papers to 52, with an additional 14 other clinical papers. One was a case study on a complex pediatric tumor case, which particularly highlighted the effectiveness of integrating neuro-navigation systems with VBAS as “a paramount strategy for the surgical resection” of this type of lesion. The second was a retrospective study of 23 patients undergoing tumor resection, comparing outcomes of surgery using VBAS with outcomes using traditional or so-called blade retractors. The study highlighted the significantly fewer new neurological deficits at follow up for the tubular retractor group compared to the traditional blade retractor group, implying safer tumor resection using VBAS. |
Financial Results
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $458,540, an increase of $22,162 (or 5%) over the 2025 period. The Vycor Medical division (VBAS) generated revenue of $440,441, an increase of $21,921 (or 5%) over the 2025 period. Most of the increase came from international growth, a key company strategy. Gross profit for 2025 was $359,040, a 5% increase over 2024, generating a margin of 82% for both periods. The NovaVision division, which remains in development, generated revenues of $18,099 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a slight over the 2025 period, and gross margin of 89%, compared to 94%.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Information
Non-GAAP Reconciliation
Management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures (including non-GAAP operating expenses and non-GAAP net loss and loss per share), which exclude non-cash depreciation of purchased assets and non-cash stock-based compensation. Management does not consider these costs in evaluating the continuing operations of the Company. Therefore, management calculates the non-GAAP financial measures provided in this earnings release excluding these costs and uses these non-GAAP financial measures to enable it to analyze further, and more consistently, the period-to-period financial performance of its core business operations. Management believes that providing investors with these non-GAAP measures gives them additional important information to enable them to assess, in the same way management assesses, the Company’s current and future continuing operations. There are limitations in using these non-GAAP financial measures because they are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. Investors and potential investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Set forth below are reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures.
On a GAAP basis for three months ended March 31, 2026 the Company reported Operating Expenses of $329,345, an operating profit of $45,808, a net loss of $(142,077) or $(0.0 per share.
Vycor’s GAAP operating costs for three months ended March 31, 2026 include non-cash depreciation of purchased assets ($13,980). The Company is providing additional non-GAAP financial measures that exclude these charges and expenses, and reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results is provided in the tables included in this release.
On a non-GAAP basis, taking into account these adjustments, operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2026 were $315,365, non-GAAP operating profit was $59,788, and non-GAAP net loss was $(128,097) or $(0.00) per share.

(1) Non-Cash depreciation of purchased assets. These are non-cash charges related to assets which can be impacted by the timing and magnitude of acquisitions. We consider our operating results without these charges when evaluating our ongoing costs and performance and therefore exclude such charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
(2) Non-Cash Stock-based compensation expense consists of expense relating to stock-based compensation issued to employees, outside directors and non-employees including stock options, restricted common stock, and warrants. Because of varying available valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the fact that these amounts vary in size and timing, we believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense allows for a more accurate comparison of our financial results to previous periods. In addition, we believe it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of stock-based compensation expenses on our operating results.
