Management Commentary

"The fourth quarter was marked by continued progress toward the commercialization of our mBôs™ Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) System, and a strengthened balance sheet to provide the cash runway to meet near-term commercialization milestones," said Ben Sexson, Chief Executive Officer of Monogram. "Early in the quarter, we closed an upsized and oversubscribed $13 million public offering to support key strategic initiatives, including clinical trials and new technology development.

"We remain diligently focused on FDA clearance for our mBôs™ TKA System 510(k) submission. The Application was submitted on July 19, 2024, and passed the initial FDA Administrative Review. On September 30, 2024, we received an Additional Information Request ("AIR") from the FDA regarding the submission, placing the application on hold pending a complete response to the AIR within 180 days. On October 16, 2024, we held a teleconference with the FDA to address clarification questions, which we found constructive. On December 17, 2024, we conducted a positive Submission Issue Request (SIR) meeting with the FDA.

"We have now completed all supplemental testing and submitted our formal response to the FDA regarding the AIR, and do not currently anticipate further requests for information. Assuming a favorable decision by the FDA following receipt of the AIR, the next communication from them is anticipated to be a clearance decision for the mBôs™ TKA System. If granted, clearance would enable commercialization and sales of the TKA system in the United States.

"We are also moving forward with our application to run an Outside the United States ("OUS") clinical trial on the fully autonomous version of the system in collaboration with Shalby Limited, a global multi-specialty hospital chain and one of India's leading orthopedic hospital groups. This would prepare the groundwork for the international launch of the mBȏs TKA System. Under the collaboration, Shalby will enroll patients at various sites in India for surgeons to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the mBȏs TKA System with the Consensus CKS implant, which is substantially equivalent to the Monogram mPress implants for regulatory purposes.

"In January, we successfully shipped a robot to support clinical trial training to India, and an Investigator Meeting was conducted at a Shalby Hospital in Ahmedabad, India. The meeting was attended by principal investigators, multiple surgeons, and staff to review study protocols, regulatory requirements, and operational procedures. Bringing together key stakeholders, the meeting provided an opportunity for in-depth discussions on study protocols and a demonstration of the mBôs technology, reinforcing the collaborative approach to this clinical trial. The meeting was organized by Reliance Life Sciences, a Reliance Group company and one of India's largest private sector companies, which is responsible for managing the regulatory submission and communications for the clinical trial. While regulatory timelines can be variable, we remain confident in our submission and the strength of our strategic partnerships with Reliance Life Sciences and Shalby to support the process.

"During the quarter, we continued to hold cadaveric system demos, receiving surgeon and market interest for our hands-free, fully active system. With this support, we continue to believe in our thesis for orthopedic robotics and the value proposition of our proposed active robotic system and are confident such a system could be a game-changing advancement for the industry. Validating this thesis, we were recently named ‘Orthopedic Joint Replacement Company of the Year 2024' by Medical Tech Outlook from an expert panel of C-level executives, industry thought leaders, and the editorial board.

"Looking ahead, we are awaiting response from the FDA for a clearance decision for the mBôs™ TKA System, which would enable commercialization and sales in the U.S. We continue to work with regulators, our Contract Research Organization (CRO) and the team at Shalby to obtain clearance and plan logistics for our anticipated multicenter clinical trial. At the same time, we remain aggressively focused on enhancing our system's performance, including optimizing workflow efficiencies and reducing cut times, to further improve future system competitiveness. We are also exploring further domestic and international relationships as we move toward commercialization and execution of our long-term road map. Strengthened by the cash runway needed to meet all near-term commercialization milestones, we are incredibly optimistic for 2025 and our mission to advance the standard of care in orthopedic medicine." concluded Sexson.

Upcoming Milestones

• The Company is seeking to obtain FDA clearance for the mBôs™ TKA System.

• The Company is seeking to obtain regulatory clearance to conduct clinical trials in India with strategic partner Shalby Hospitals.

• Continue exploring domestic relationships.

• Continue exploring international relationships.

• Continued R&D and product development to improve future competitiveness and expand to new applications.

Full Year 2024 Financial Results

Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $8.8 million, compared to $10.6 million the prior year (17%). The R&D decrease year over year was driven by the company having largely completed the verification and validation phases in the first half of 2024, resulting in overall reduction of R&D expenses in 2024 compared to 2023.

Marketing and advertising expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $2.1 million, compared to $3.0 million in the prior year (30%). The decrease in marketing and advertising expenses was driven largely by market conditions that influenced the effectiveness of fundraising efforts impacting both the cost of investor acquisition and the overall success of a crowdfunded capital raise.

General & administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, increased to $4.4 million, from $4.1 million in 2023 (9%). The increase was primarily due to a full year of public company expenses primarily composed of insurance expenses, regulatory compliance expenses, and professional expenses offset by reductions in payroll and related expenses.

Net loss was $16.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to a net loss of $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The net loss in 2023 was positively impacted by the change in fair value of a warrant liability of $3M that did not re-occur in 2024, as the warrant was exercised.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $15.7 million as of December 31, 2024, compared to $13.6 million as of December 31, 2023. The company continues to direct its resources with a focus on commercializing the mBôs™ TKA System as capital efficiently as possible.

About Monogram Technologies Inc.

Monogram Technologies (NASDAQ: MGRM) is an AI-driven robotics company focused on improving human health, with an initial focus on orthopedic surgery. The Company is developing a product solution architecture to enable patient-optimized orthopedic implants at scale by combining 3D printing, advanced machine vision, AI and next-generation robotics.

Monograms mBôs precision robotic surgical system is designed to autonomously execute optimized paths for high-precision insertion of its FDA-cleared mPress press-fit implants. The goal is well balanced, better-fitting bone sparing knee replacements. The Company initially intends to produce and market robotic surgical equipment and related software, orthopedic implants, tissue ablation tools, navigation consumables, and other miscellaneous instrumentation necessary for reconstructive joint replacement procedures. Other clinical and commercial applications for the mBôs with mVision navigation are also being explored.

Monogram has obtained FDA clearance for mPress implants and applied for 510(k) clearance for its robotic products. The Company is required to obtain FDA clearance before it can market its products. Monogram cannot estimate the timing or assure the ability to obtain such clearances.

The Company believes that its mBôs precision robotic surgical assistants, which combine AI and novel navigation methods (mVision), will enable more personalized knee implants for patients, resulting in well balanced better-fitting knee replacements with bone sparing implants. Monogram anticipates that there may be other clinical and commercial applications for its navigated mBôs precision robot and mVision navigation.
