The full text of the letter follows:
May 28, 2025
Mr. Pedro Escudero
CEO and CIO
DOMA, Perpetual Capital Management LLC
Dear Mr. Escudero,
This letter is in response to your letter dated May 9, 2025.
First, I would like to thank you for voting for me to be re-elected to the Board of Directors. I really appreciate your vote of confidence and trust. I understand from this that you believe that my contribution to InMode's Board of Directors is important.
I am answering your letter as the CEO of InMode and presume that Dr. Michael Anghel -the Chairman of InMode – will answer your letter as well.
With regards to the claims you specified in your letter:
Buyback – As you know Pedro, in the last 12 months – we bought-back $412M of InMode shares, and in the last 2.5 years – we bought back $508M of InMode shares. Our goal is to return capital to our shareholders in the most tax-efficient manner possible. I believe that our buy-back program is reasonable for both the company as well as its shareholders and takes into consideration the tax rules in Israel.
Moving production capacity out of Israel – I don't know how many industrial companies you have managed during your career, but InMode's supply chain and manufacturing team has many years of experience in manufacturing medical equipment in Israel from many aspects, including regulation, quality and cost. As I wrote to you in my letter dated March 6, 2025 - InMode is not a mass-production company and therefore the manufacturing capacity must be in close proximity to the engineering, R&D and logistic management teams. We have been (and still are) enduring a war that has taken place in Israel over the last two years, and yet we have supplied every platform to every country/destination (90 countries) on time, without compromising our quality.
Sales Organization in North America - as I explained in my letter dated March 6, 2025, all of our sales management positions are manned, and work in a most professional manner. Unfortunately, the slowdown in our business in North America, which is mainly due to macro-economic factors and difficulty in financing medical capital equipment are the main reasons for the slowdown in our business in North America, and not the management of our sales organization.
My performance as CEO – I believe that writing that my management style is "reckless and antagonistic", with "dismal leadership and poor performance as CEO" is unbased and unethical. I am the co-founder of this company and have been managing it since day one along with my co-founder – Dr. Michael Kreindel – in a very "lean and mean" manner. I will leave the decision regarding myself to my Board of Directors.
Regards,
Moshe Mizrahy
CEO, InMode Ltd.
