Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 16, 2026, CapsoVision, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with selected accredited investors (the “Investors”), for the purposes of raising approximately $14 million in aggregate gross proceeds for the Company (the “Private Placement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors in the Private Placement an aggregate of 2,867,089 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at $4.883 per Share, which represents a 5% discount to the March 16th closing price, as per the terms of the agreement.
The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and agreements of the Company and the Investors and customary indemnification rights and obligations of the parties.
The closing of the Private Placement occurred on March 16, 2026. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement for general corporate purposes, including sales and marketing, research and development activities, general and administrative matters, working capital and capital expenditures.
The Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and were offered pursuant to an exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.
In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, dated March 16, 2026 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), with the Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the Company will (i) prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement to register for resale the Shares within 90 days after the closing of the Private Placement, and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to have such registration statement declared effective as soon as reasonably practicable following the filing thereof with the SEC. The Registration Rights Agreement contains customary terms and conditions for a transaction of this type.

Item 8.01. Other Events.
Update on CapsoCam Colon
The Company is a global commercial-stage medical technology company focused on creating diagnostic and screening products to identify abnormalities of the GI tract. Currently, the Company’s GI-tract capsule endoscopy solution comprises the single-use CapsoCam capsule and the associated software, CapsoCloud and CapsoView. In addition, the Company is developing its next pipeline capsule endoscope, CapsoCam Colon. The CapsoCam Colon capsule (i) leverages CapsoCam Plus’s existing capsule design with its panoramic view and (ii) incorporates both the self-developed AI to automatically detect polyps in the video and the polyp-size measurement tool enabled by a 3D sensor in the capsule.
The Company submitted the 510(k) application for its first generation CapsoCam Colon capsule to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in June 2025 and received responses from the FDA in September 2025. During the Company’s meeting with the FDA in December 2025, the FDA raised inquiries on topics including panoramic image processing methodology, and the proposed study design, sample size and primary endpoint for an extended study. Based on the Company’s communications with the FDA, the Company has decided not to further pursue the first generation CapsoCam Colon capsule submission and approval, and to prioritize its resources for the development of its second generation CapsoCam Colon capsule, featuring improved imaging quality and increased field of review with use of AI and better lens. The Company also expanded a second arm pivotal study to enroll approximately 800 patients at up to 20 sites in the U.S. in preparation for submitting a new 510(k) application for the second generation CapsoCam Colon capsule. As of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, over 500 patients have been enrolled for the second arm pivotal study. The Company currently expects to submit the 510(k) application for the second generation CapsoCam Colon capsule to the FDA in the third quarter of 2026.
Update on Breakthrough Device Designation
The Company is pioneering a novel, visual assessment for the screening and detection of pancreatic cancer. This builds on the technology and clinical results the Company has previously demonstrated in evaluating abnormalities of the duodenal wall and identification of duodenal landmarks (e.g., papilla of Vater). The Company will execute on necessary clinical studies to support this non-invasive, paradigm-changing, screening method.
Starting with a planned study, the Company will build on established scientific literature and work with leading opinion leaders (including leadership in leading Societies in pancreatobiliary field) to define malignancy diagnosis with the device.
It is expected that the study will start in the second quarter of 2026, and enroll approximately 90 patients using the CapsoCam UGI system to define diagnosis criteria.
The Company is also exploring a Breakthrough Device Designation with the FDA. Regulatory clearance for the CapsoCam UGI system in the USA is independent of this designation, as Breakthrough Designation is intended as a mechanism to facilitate development and enhance communications with the agency. An initial application was submitted for the CapsoCam UGI system for early-stage pancreatic cancer detection on November 6, 2025. A response from FDA in January 2026 determined that the CapsoCam UGI does allow for visualization of the papilla and its abnormalities, for both pre-cancerous and cancerous lesions. Due to the fact that the device does not specifically define diagnostic criteria, the application was not approved. The Company expects to resubmit the Breakthrough Device Designation application following the study, when additional data is available. The breakthrough designation is a part of the on-going project, potentially supplementing the regulatory pathway and approval for early pancreas cancer detection.
