Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information in Item 7.01 below, except the section titled “Guidance Update,” is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.02.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

TELA Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) is disclosing certain preliminary financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024.

Preliminary Third Quarter Results:

Preliminary unaudited operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and certain preliminary financial condition information as of September 30, 2024 are as follows:

·Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 is estimated to be $19.0 million, compared to $15.1 million over the corresponding period of 2023.

·Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2024 is estimated to be approximately 68%, compared to 69% over the corresponding period of 2023.

·The Company ended the third quarter with $17.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $46.7 million as of December 31, 2023.

The above information is preliminary financial information as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and is subject to completion. The unaudited, estimated results as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2024 are preliminary and were prepared by the Company’s management, based upon the Company’s estimates, a number of assumptions and currently available information, and are subject to revision based upon, among other things, quarter-end closing procedures and/or adjustments, the completion of the Company’s interim financial statements and other operational procedures. This preliminary financial information is the responsibility of management and has been prepared in good faith on a consistent basis with prior periods. However, the Company has not completed the Company’s financial closing procedures for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and the Company’s actual results could be materially different from this preliminary financial information, which preliminary information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or the Company’s management as to the Company’s actual results as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary financial information and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to this preliminary financial information. During the course of the preparation of the Company’s financial statements and related notes as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company may identify items that would require the Company to make material adjustments to this preliminary financial information. As a result, prospective investors shou

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

TELA Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) is disclosing certain preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Preliminary First Quarter Results:

Preliminary unaudited operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and certain preliminary financial condition information as of March 31, 2023 are as follows:

·Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is estimated to be $11.9 million, compared to $8.2 million over the corresponding period of 2022.

·The Company ended the first quarter with $30.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $42.0 million as of December 31, 2022.

The above information is preliminary financial information as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and is subject to completion. The unaudited, estimated results as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are preliminary and were prepared by the Company’s management, based upon the Company’s estimates, a number of assumptions and currently available information, and are subject to revision based upon, among other things, quarter-end closing procedures and/or adjustments, the completion of the Company’s interim financial statements and other operational procedures. This preliminary financial information is the responsibility of management and has been prepared in good faith on a consistent basis with prior periods. However, the Company has not completed the Company’s financial closing procedures for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and the Company’s actual results could be materially different from this preliminary financial information, which preliminary information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or the Company’s management as to the Company’s actual results as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023. In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has not audited, reviewed, compiled, or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary financial information and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to this preliminary financial information. During the course of the preparation of the Company’s financial statements and related notes as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company may identify items that would require the Company to make material adjustments to this preliminary financial information. As a result, prospective investors should exercise caution in relying on this information and should not draw any inferences from this information. This preliminary financial information should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and reviewed by the Company’s auditors.
