Why it matters

FDA approval is the most important near-term catalyst for the company, enabling the commercial launch of the second-generation system and driving significant future revenue growth.

We continue to believe this to be the most important near-term catalyst for the company. We submitted our PMA supplement to the FDA in June of 2025, and based off of our interactions with the FDA to date, we continue to believe we are on track for a potential approval in the second half of this calendar year, although the timing and outcome of the review remain subject to the FDA approval process.

Q&A highlights

Can you provide more detail on how the recent financing capital will be used, specifically for the Gen 2 LungFit PH launch and commercial rollout, and where the biggest investments will be?

The capital will primarily be used for operations, including building pilot devices for the Gen 2 system and scaling up device production upon FDA clearance for commercial launch in 2027 and beyond. It will also absorb some of the company's cash burn during this period.

“It really is a lot for operations. So what we have going right now is we have the pilots, which are being built on the Gen 2 device, in the near term and then upon FDA clearance, we'd be building a lot more devices and gaining commercial steam for 2027 and beyond.”

Detailed narrative

Financial Strengthening and NASDAQ Compliance

Beyond Air has significantly strengthened its financial position through a recent financing of up to $30 million, securing $10 million in upfront gross proceeds. This capital infusion has also enabled the company to regain compliance with NASDAQ's listing requirements, providing greater financial flexibility for future operations and strategic initiatives, particularly the planned commercial launch of the second-generation LungFit PH system.

Commercial Expansion and Market Access

The company continues to expand its commercial footprint by deepening relationships with hospitals and health systems. During the quarter, Beyond Air secured a national group purchasing agreement with a third major U.S. GPO, complementing existing agreements with Premier and Vizion. These partnerships collectively provide access to a substantial portion of U.S. hospitals, forming a critical component of the commercial strategy for LungFit PH.

International Distribution Network Growth

Beyond Air is actively expanding its global distribution network, with partnerships already in place covering over 40 countries. The strengthened financial position from the recent equity raise is expected to better support these international partners in bringing LungFit PH to market in various regions. This international expansion is identified as a key growth center for the company.

Second-Generation LungFit PH FDA Review Progress

The second-generation LungFit PH system remains under review by the FDA, with the PMA supplement submitted in June 2025. Management reports positive and frequent interactions with the FDA, indicating that the review process is on track for a potential approval in the second half of calendar year 2026. The company is actively preparing for a commercial launch pending this critical regulatory milestone.

Disciplined Capital Allocation and Operational Focus

Beyond Air maintains a disciplined approach to capital allocation, primarily dedicating resources to the LungFit PH program. The recent financing is earmarked to support operations, including the building of pilot devices for the Gen 2 system and covering cash burn during the pre-launch phase. This strategic investment aims to ensure a robust commercial rollout post-FDA clearance.

Confidence in H2 2026 Revenue Growth

Despite flat revenue in Q1 FY27, management expressed strong confidence in achieving its reaffirmed $8 million revenue guidance for calendar year 2026, implying significant growth in the second half. This confidence is attributed to a doubled commercial pipeline, recent wins in the current quarter, and immediate revenue recognition from international tenders, which are expected to contribute meaningfully to H2 numbers.
