- Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-Term Investments: Approximately $514 million as of December 31, 2025.
- Revenue, Profit, and Margins: The filing text does not provide a clear value for revenue, net income, operating margins, or cash flow from operations.

Material Changes and Comparisons
The filing does not provide comparative data against the prior fiscal year or quarter.

Management, including CEO Marino Garcia, plans to present these preliminary figures at investor meetings and the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference on January 12, 2026. The Company explicitly states that the estimated cash balance is preliminary and unaudited. Actual financial results may differ materially from these estimates once the fourth-quarter and fiscal-year closing procedures are completed. The filing includes standard cautionary notes regarding forward-looking statements and associated risks.
