TELA Bio Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

MALVERN, PA, August 10, 2026 -- TELA Bio, Inc. (“TELA Bio”), a commercial-stage medical technology company focused on providing innovative soft-tissue reconstruction solutions, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

Recent Highlights

●Announced appointment of Heather Getz as Chief Executive Officer and Director, effective August 4, 2026;

●Delivered international revenue growth of 26% over the prior year period, with continued momentum in several European markets;

●Achieved additional market share gain with OviTex unit volume growth of 12% over the prior year period;

●Grew LiquiFix revenue by 39% over the prior-year period; and

●Delivered $19.3 million revenue in the second quarter of 2026, representing a decline of 4% from the prior year period, primarily the result of a decline in OviTex PRS unit volumes.

“I am honored to join TELA Bio at such an exciting time in the Company's evolution. One reason I joined TELA is the superiority of our differentiated product portfolio. OviTex long-term data has continuously shown recurrence rates in the low single-digits, whereas other hernia repair materials have recurrence rates consistently 10 times higher than that.

“Unfortunately, the financial performance of the business does not reflect the superiority of the portfolio. Our second quarter revenue was negatively impacted by a decline in OviTex PRS volumes and continued price and mix headwinds in hernia procedures. In response, we have returned to a sales structure designed to reinforce cross-selling among our field teams, and with a clear focus on returning to growth in the second half the year,” said Heather Getz, newly appointed Chief Executive Officer of TELA Bio.

“We also continue to battle against the competitive dynamics of bundling from our largest competitors and to combat this, we have upgraded talent within our Market Access and Contracting team. We are encouraged by several indicators of progress across the business. Hernia unit volumes grew 12% year over year, demonstrating continued procedural market share gains, while ASP and procedure mix begin to stabilize. International revenue also continued to grow, and our field organization is progressing toward the productivity levels we expected as newer territory managers gain experience."

Ms. Getz continued, “Given the confluence of these dynamics, we are withdrawing our full year 2026 revenue guidance as I fully assess the business and strategic direction. What is clear to me is that as we move through the second half of the year, we must improve PRS performance, accelerate our market share gains in hernia, and translate the increasing productivity of our commercial organization into sustainable top-line growth. At the same time, we will take decisive action to extend our cash runway and better align our cost structure with our top line. We are focused on disciplined execution and creating long-term value for all our stakeholders.”

Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Revenue was $19.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of 4% compared to $20.2 million in the second quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by a decline in OviTex PRS volumes and price mix headwinds, partially offset by growing international sales.

Gross profit was $13.9 million, or 72% of revenue, in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $14.1

million, or 70% of revenue, in the same period in 2025. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to a tariff refund and a lower charge for excess and obsolete inventory as a percentage of revenue.

Operating expenses were $23.2 million in both the second quarter of 2026 and 2025. There was a de minimis increase due to higher meeting and training costs and increased professional fees partially offset by lower compensation and benefits from lower headcount, lower commission expense, and lower study costs.

Loss from operations was $9.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to $9.1 million in the same period in 2025.

Net loss was $11.3 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of $9.9 million in the same period in 2025.

Cash and cash equivalents on June 30, 2026 were $30.4 million.

The Company has withdrawn full-year guidance and will provide an update

in the future.

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.
