Potential Acquisition of Assets

In February 2025, Catheter Precision, Inc. (the “Company”) formed its subsidiary Cardionomix, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“Cardionomix”), in order to pursue the possible acquisition of certain assets of Cardionomic, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which has ceased operations. We issued 82% of the common stock of Cardionomix to the Company, 5% to David Jenkins, our Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of the Board, 7% to FatBoy Capital L.P., an entity controlled by Mr. Jenkins, and 6% to certain business associates of Mr. Jenkins. These minority interests were issued to compensate these persons for bringing this business opportunity to the Company.

The Company and Cardionomix are currently negotiating an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cardionomic (assignment for the benefit of creditors), LLC, a California limited liability company (the “Seller”), in its sole and limited capacity as assignee for the benefit of creditors of Cardionomic, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Assignor”), pursuant to which Cardionomix would purchase assets related to the Assignor's late-stage treatment in development for acute decompensated heart failure (the “Purchased Assets”), consisting of patents and trademarks related to the Assignor's Cardiac Pulmonary Nerve Simulation (CNPS) System. In the Agreement as currently proposed, the Seller would represent that Assignor had previously transferred ownership of all of its right, title and interest in and to all of its tangible and intangible assets, including the Purchased Assets, to Seller, and, in so doing, also designated Seller to act, pursuant to California law, as the assignee for the benefit of creditors of Assignor.

The proposed Agreement provides that at closing of the transaction, the Purchased Assets will be acquired by Cardionomix on an “AS IS” and “WHERE IS” basis, with limited representations from the Seller, in exchange for the issuance by the Company of 1,000,000 restricted shares of the Company's common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Share Consideration”) and the issuance by Cardionomix of a promissory note (the "Note") in the amount of $1.5 million, with simple interest accruing at 4% per annum on the principal thereof and no interest or principal payable until the maturity date of the Note, which will be three years following issuance of the Note.

Following the closing of the proposed acquisition, should it occur, Cardionomix would have no significant assets other than the Purchased Assets. Accordingly, it would need to raise substantial funds in order to develop the Purchased Assets. We have begun discussions with potential investors, but there can be no guarantee that we will be able to raise sufficient funds for this purpose on a timely basis or at all. Any such financing is likely to entail the issuance of additional securities by Cardionomix to such investors, which securities would also be likely to provide certain corporate governance rights. Such an issuance is expected to reduce the Company's ownership interest in Cardionomix, although it is expected that Cardionomix would remain a majority owned consolidated entity. The Company does not intend to pursue this financing unless and until it acquires the Purchased Assets. The information set forth in this Current Report on Form 8-K is not an offer to sell or exchange, or solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities.

We currently hope to sign and close this transaction in the first half of the second quarter of 2025, but we do not have a signed agreement with the Assignor and there can be no guarantee that we will do so in this time frame or at all.

Caution Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "believe," "anticipate," "may," "might," "can," "could," "continue," "depends," "expect," "expand," "forecast," “hope,” "intend," "predict," "plan," "rely," "should," "will," "may," "seek," “promising,” “potential,” or the negative of these terms and other similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these words. These forward-looking statements are subject to the safe harbor provisions under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements contained in this press release include, but are not limited to, express and implied statements regarding the following: our expectation to acquire assets of Cardionomic, Inc.; our expectations regarding those assets; our expectation to conclude financing for the new subsidiary and that the proceeds of such financing will fund development of the acquired assets independent of VTAK’s balance sheet. The Company's expectations and beliefs regarding these matters may not materialize. Actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those contemplated by these forward-looking statements as a result of uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties included under the caption "Risk Factors" in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K filed with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov. These risks and uncertainties include, but aren't limited to: that the closing of the asset acquisition described above remains subject to inherent uncertainties of negotiations; the acquisition cannot occur unless we manage to successfully negotiate and achieve execution by all relevant parties of a final, definitive agreement; any such agreement will also be subject to important closing conditions that may not be met; we may not be able to successfully complete negotiation and signing of the agreement if we fail to agree with the Seller regarding outstanding details of the proposed acquisition and further the Seller could make unanticipated demands, or decide to abandon negotiations if it receives a better offer or for other reasons we cannot anticipate and which are beyond our control; the proposed consideration includes our listed stock and if the price of our stock drops too low due to market volatility or otherwise, the Seller may be less likely to finalize the acquisition; that even if we complete the acquisition, our ability to develop and commercialize the assets could be adversely impacted if we are unable to maintain protection of the patents and trade names related thereto, which we are acquiring on an as is basis without recourse; that we may not be able to obtain the financing for Cardionomix that we anticipate and/or such financing even if obtained may not be adequate for the development of the assets; and that we may not adequately address the lessons learned from the pilot studies related to the assets, which included fatigue to nerves if stimulation is delivered for too long; high amplitude stimulation can lead to unstable hemodynamics, rhythm disturbances, and patient sensation; optimal stimulation response is dependent on more than just contractility; stimulation beyond 48 hours did not show additional benefit; stimulator modifications required to reduce procedure time, complexity, and improve user experience; and minor catheter modifications needed to accommodate larger anatomy in heart failure patients. FDA review of the assets is likely to be costly and lengthy, and there is no guarantee that clearance and approval will ever occur or occur on a timetable that is beneficial to the Company. Additionally, Cardionomix has other, minority investors aside from the Company, and future financings are expected to involve the issuance of securities by Cardionomix, which will reduce the Company’s share in the profits, if any, from the Purchased Assets and Cardionomix, and is likely to involve the grant of special corporate governance rights to other subsidiary investors so that the Company will not have unfettered control of Cardionomix. There is no guarantee that the success of the pilot studies of the CPNS System will be repeated in future trials or ultimately lead to a successful commercialization of the Purchased Assets. The medical device industry in general is highly competitive, and some of our competitors have longer, more established operating histories, with significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, sales, distribution, and other resources. The Purchased Assets are not the only device-based neuromodulation therapy currently in development for the treatment of heart failure and further must also compete against potential new drug therapies. In general, results of anticipated trials may not turn out as we currently expect, and future trials may not occur on the time tables we expect or may be more costly than anticipated. In addition, our forward looking statements are subject to the following additional uncertainties and risks: we do not have sufficient liquidity to fund our business unless we are able to obtain additional financing or enter into a strategic transaction that would provide additional liquidity during the next three to six months, we will not be able to reach profitability unless we are able to achieve our product expansion and growth goals, our research and development and commercialization efforts may depend on entering into agreements with corporate collaborators, we have in the past entered into joint marketing agreements with respect to our products, and may again enter into additional joint marketing agreements in the future that could reduce our revenues from product sales, if we experience significant disruptions in our information technology systems, our business may be adversely affected, litigation and other legal proceedings may adversely affect our business, if we make acquisitions or divestitures, we could encounter difficulties that harm our business, failure to attract and retain sufficient qualified personnel could also impede our growth, failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause our investors to lose confidence in us and adversely affect the market price of our common stock, we have determined that our internal controls and disclosure controls were not effective as of March 31, 2024, June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2024, and as a result, without effective remediation of the material weaknesses that we have identified, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, our revenues may depend on our customers' receipt of adequate reimbursement from private insurers and government sponsored healthcare programs, we may be unable to compete successfully with companies in our highly competitive industry, many of whom have substantially greater resources than we do, our future operating results depend upon our ability to obtain components in sufficient quantities on commercially reasonable terms or according to schedules, prices, quality and volumes that are acceptable to us, and suppliers may fail to deliver components, or we may be unable to manage these components effectively or obtain these components on such terms, if hospitals, physicians and patients do not accept our current and future products or if the market for indications for which any product candidate is approved is smaller than expected, we may be unable to generate significant revenue, if any, our medical device operations are subject to pervasive and continuing FDA regulatory requirements, our products may be subject to additional recalls, revocations or suspensions after receiving FDA or foreign approval or clearance, which could divert managerial and financial resources, harm our reputation, and adversely affect our business, changes in trade policies among the U.S. and other countries, in particular the imposition of new or higher tariffs by the U.S. and/or its trading partners could increase our expenses, require us to increase prices, potentially lowering demand for our products, and/or reduce our revenues and operating results, and such increase , or the imposition of other barriers to international trade, could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and operating results. The risks and uncertainties described above may be amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused significant economic uncertainty, or other pandemics, supply chain disruptions from the Ukraine war or Israeli-Hamas conflict and otherwise, and ongoing volatility in the stock markets and the U.S. economy in general.

The forward-looking statements included in this Form 8-K are made only as of the date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
