FOLLOWING THE SIGNATURE OF A FINANCIAL AGREEMENT FOR UP TO €37.5 MILLION WITH THE EIB, MEDIAN TECHNOLOGIES LAUNCHES AN APPROXIMATELY €22.0 MILLION CAPITAL INCREASE TO SUPPORT COMMERCIALIZATION OF EYONIS LCS IN THE U.S. AND TO FINANCE EXPANSION OF ITS PROPRIETARY EYONIS SUITE OF SOFTWARE AS A MEDICAL DEVICE
Median Technologies (FR0011049824, ALMDT, PEA-PME scheme eligible, "Median" or the "Company"), manufacturer of eyonis, a suite of artificial intelligence (AI) powered Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) for early cancer diagnosis, and a leading provider of AI-based image analyses and central imaging services for oncology drug developers, announces today the launch of a capital increase through the issuance of shares with attached warrants ("ABSA") without preferential subscription rights, but with a priority subscription period of 5 trading days for an amount of approximately €22.0 million, which may be increased to €25.3 million following the exercise of the full Extension Clause (as defined below). The ABSA will be offered through the priority subscription period, as well as, for the remaining securities, by way of a public offering and a private placement to certain qualified investors (together, the "Offering").
The Company has already received subscription commitments from existing and new shareholders, for an amount of €17.2 million, representing 78.0% of the initial amount of the Offering.
Subscription period of the priority subscription and the public offering is of 5 trading days, from July 23, 2025 until July 29, 2025 at 5:00 pm CEST.
Fredrik Brag, CEO and Founder of Median Technologies, commented: "With this fund raising, Median will be making an important step to obtaining the financial resources it needs to successfully launch eyonis LCS in the U.S. The resulting increase in our cash runway will significantly strengthen our negotiating position toward strategic commercial partners for eyonis LCS distribution in the U.S. and will help us to obtain favorable and profitable partnership conditions and further demonstrate the potential of eyonis LCS. Our vision is to leverage our unique expertise in AI, computer vision and signal processing technologies to become the leading global company in image-based tests for the early diagnosis of cancers. Early diagnosis can make many cancers curable, and this capital increase will also empower us to accelerate the development of our eyonis Software as a Medical Device suite, expanding it into new cancer types where early diagnosis can dramatically improve patient outcomes.
"We are grateful for the strong and consistent support and commitment from our existing and new shareholders, reflecting the potential of eyonis LCS to save patients' lives, and look forward to welcoming new institutional and individual investors."
The offering follows the signing of a financial agreement for a new financing facility for up to €37.5 million with the European Investment Bank (EIB), announced on July 11, 2025.
Successful settlement and delivery of the offering is expected to allow the Company to fulfill its contractual obligations with EIB for the drawing down of the €19 million first tranche of the new financing facility.
Intended use of the transaction's net proceeds
- Approximatively one-third of the net proceeds from the transaction will be used to support eyonis Lung Cancer Screening (LCS) progress towards major milestones consisting of commercial launch and sales development in the U.S.
- Approximatively one-third of the net proceeds from the transaction will be used to accelerate the expansion of Median's proprietary suite of Software as a Medical Device, eyonis, for image-based early cancer diagnosis, notably the scientific and clinical development of Software as a Medical Devices for incidental findings of pulmonary nodules (eyonis IPN) and liver cancer early diagnosis (eyonis HCC).
- Approximately one-third of the net proceeds from the transaction will be used to finance the Company's general corporate needs and to support its cash position through the third quarter of 2026.
eyonis LCS progress status and next steps
Regulatory filings for marketing in U.S. and Europe and marketing authorizations:
- On May 14, 2025, Median Technologies announced the filing of an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for 510(k) clearance of eyonis LCS.
- On July 1, 2025, the Company announced the filing of an application for Class IIb CE marking of eyonis LCS.
- In line with the projected timeline, on July 12, 2025, the Company received a list of questions from the FDA regarding the results from the pivotal studies of eyonis LCS. These questions are currently under review, and the Company will provide responses to the FDA within the allotted timeframe.
- Given the usual timelines for regulatory review, the U.S. FDA 510(k) clearance for eyonis LCS is expected around the end of Q3 2025, which we expect to be followed by commercial launch in the United States.
- Median Technologies expects European marketing authorization for eyonis LCS as soon as Q1 2026.
Commercial launch
- Median Technologies is actively engaged in discussions with several leading players in AI- diagnostic and imaging equipment manufacturing for the commercialization of eyonis LCS. Some of these strategic partnerships are expected to be entered into upon or shortly after FDA marketing authorization of eyonis LCS.
- The Company has further developed its U.S. market access strategy, based on a detailed mapping of medical institutions involved in screening procedures, particularly in the United States, eyonis LCS' leading market. This mapping has enabled the identification of health institutions generating the highest volume of lung cancer screening procedures, positioning them as key drivers for the commercial launch of eyonis LCS.
- Discussions with U.S. payers will be initiated upon or shortly after FDA marketing authorization. At this stage, preliminary studies have been conducted to estimate the projected economic benefits of using eyonis LCS in lung cancer screening programs. To date, the Company has developed a detailed mapping of payers in the United States. Furthermore, an initial analysis based on a health economics Markov model simulating lung cancer progression over five years and incorporating the performance of eyonis LCS, demonstrates that eyonis LCS enhances early detection and characterization, reduces unnecessary health procedures, and generates significant cost savings for U.S. payers. The results of this preliminary analysis were presented at ISPOR 2025, the leading global conference for health economics and market access, held this past May. Results from the study are available on Median's website.
- Over the past year, the Median eyonis team has built a substantial network of early adopters composed of key opinion leaders. The team has conducted numerous visits to leading healthcare institutions and actively participated in major medical conferences organized by medical societies in pulmonology, oncology, and radiology, both in the U.S. and Europe, including the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), the European Radiology Society (ESR), the American Thoracic Society (ATS), the European Society of Thoracic Imaging (ESTI), the European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO), and the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The Company now enjoys strong recognition of its eyonis LCS technology within the medical community, along with a strong brand image associated with the product. Most of the leading healthcare institutions in contact with Median have expressed interest in participating in future health economics studies, which will be launched following regulatory marketing approvals.

Nature and legal basis of the Offering
Using the authorization granted under the 16th resolution of the Annual Shareholders' Meeting of June 17, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors, meeting on July 21, 2025, voted to launch the Offering.
The Offering will include, for those ABSA that are not subscribed during the priority period, both either on an irreducible and reducible basis:
- A public offering in France, mainly intended for individuals (the "Public Offering"); and
- A global placement intended for qualified investors (the "Global Placement") comprising:
- A private placement in France
- An international offer to qualified investors in certain countries outside the United States of America, in offshore transactions pursuant to Regulation S of the Securities Act ("Regulation S") (excluding Japan, Australia, South Africa, and Canada; and
- A private placement to a limited number of accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act")) and qualified institutional buyers (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act).
The distribution of ABSA to the public in France will occur in accordance with the applicable provisions of Euronext market rules.
TP ICAP Midcap is acting as global coordinator and bookrunner for the Offering.
Structure of the Offering
(i) Priority period
The capital increase will be carried out without shareholders' preferential subscription rights, and with a priority period, on an irreducible and reducible basis, of 5 consecutive trading days, from July 23 until 5:00 p.m. CEST on July 29, 2025, to be granted to holders of existing shares recorded in their securities accounts at the close of business on July 22, 2025, according to the indicative timetable. This priority period is neither transferable nor negotiable.
During the priority period as described above, each existing shareholder of the Company will have the option of subscribing for ABSA to be issued in connection with the Public Offering (i) on an irreducible basis, up to the pro rata amount of their interest in the Company's share capital recorded in their securities accounts at the close of business on July 22, 2025, and (ii) on a reducible basis, up to the number of ABSA they would like to subscribe for in addition to that to which they would be entitled if they exercised their irreducible priority subscription right (within the limits set out below), it being specified that orders to subscribe for ABSA on a reducible basis under the priority subscription period will be given priority over orders to subscribe for ABSA under the Public Offering and the Global Placement (including with regard to ABSA issued in connection with the possible exercise of the Extension Clause (as defined below)).
Any existing shareholder who, by application of this rule, would be allocated the right to subscribe for less than one ABSA will have the right to subscribe for one ABSA.
Shareholders wishing to subscribe for ABSA in addition to those due under their irreducible priority right may place an order either on a reducible basis within the priority period or within the framework of the Public Offering or the Global Placement. Orders placed by shareholders within the priority period on a reducible basis will be served within the limits of their requests and proportionally to the number of existing shares for which the rights have been used to support their irreducible subscription, without resulting in the allocation of fractions of ABSA. New ABSA potentially issued in the context of the exercise of the Extension Clause will be allocated as a priority, according to the same rules, to fulfill the reducible orders that were not fully served. Orders placed by shareholders within the Public Offering or the Global Placement will be treated without priority compared to orders placed by any other investor within the Public Offering or the Global Placement.
(ii) Public Offering and Global Placement
The Public Offering will be open only in France, from July 23, 2025 until 5:00 pm CEST on July 29, 2025 (for over-the-counter subscriptions and, if given this option by their financial intermediary, for online subscriptions). Funds received in support of subscriptions will be centralized by Société Générale Securities Services, which will be responsible for drawing up the certificate of deposit of funds recording the completion of the capital increase.
The Global Placement will take place from June 23, 2025, until 5:00 pm CEST on July 29, 2025. To be considered, according to the indicative timetable, orders must be received by TP ICAP Midcap no later than July 29, 2025, before 5:00 pm (Paris time).

Number of ABSA to be issued
The maximum total number of ABSA to be issued, assuming no exercise of the Extension Clause (as defined below) and with a par value of €0.05, is 13,253,012, at a unit subscription price of €1.66, giving maximum gross proceeds of approximately €22.0 million (representing approximately €0.7 million of par value plus approximately €21.3 million of new issue premium).
In the case of full exercise of the Extension Clause, the number of ABSA to be issued would increase to 15,240,963 ABSA and the maximum gross proceeds would Increase to €25.3 million (representing approximately €0.8 million of par value and approximately €24.5 million of new issue premium).
To each share issued in the Offering will be attached one warrant, which is immediately detachable. Two warrants will give the right to subscribe three new ordinary shares if exercised before February 5, 2028, at the strike price of €2.39 per share. Exercise of all the warrants would represent additional gross proceeds of approximately €47.5 million, assuming no exercise of the Extension Clause, and approximately €54.6 million in the case of the full exercise of the Extension Clause.
Subscription price
The subscription price for an ABSA is €1.66 per ABSA, payable in full at the time of subscription.
Based on the Company's closing share price on Euronext Growth on July 18, 2024, of €2.08:
- the ABSA subscription price of €1.66 per ABSA, combined with the exercise price of a warrant minus the theoretical value of a warrant, represents a 17.9% discount from to the average of the volume-weighted average prices (VWAP) of the Company's shares recorded over the twenty trading sessions preceding (and including the day of) 18 July 2025;
- 2 warrants entitle the holder to subscribe for 3 new ordinary shares of the Company at a total exercise price of €7.17. This represents an exercise price of €2.39 per new ordinary share, with the theoretical value of each warrant being €0.90 per new ordinary share according to the Black Scholes model, based on an assumed volatility of 76%.
Features of the new shares issued as part of the ABSA
The new shares, which will be subject to all the provisions of the Company's bylaws, will be issued with dividend rights.
They will be treated in the same way as existing shares as soon as they are issued. Application will be made for the shares to be admitted to trading on Euronext Growth Paris.
They will be listed on the same line as existing shares and will be fully equivalent to them as soon as they are admitted to trading.
Settlement and delivery and listing of the new shares on Euronext Growth Paris is planned for August 5, 2025.
Features of the Warrants
The features of the warrants attached to the ABSA, in particular the arrangements for maintaining the rights of Warrant holders, are described in Schedule to this press release.

Eligibility of the Offering for section 150-0 B TER of the French Tax Code (re-employment of capital gains on disposals)
If shares of stock are contributed to a company controlled by the contributor, the capital gain is tax-deferred, per Article 150-0 B ter of the French General Tax Code. If the contributed shares are sold within three years, the tax deferral is terminated, unless the company undertakes to reinvest 60% of the proceeds in an economic activity within two years of the sale. Proceeds from the sale may be invested in cash subscriptions to startup equity or to additions to equity of one or more companies that meet the conditions set out in Article 150-0 B ter of the French General Tax Code. Accordingly, the Transaction constitutes a reinvestment of a nature treatable as contribution of a capital gain.
Subscribers must also comply with the other conditions for applying the rule, which are independent of the Company (reinvestment deadline and threshold, retention of new shares, etc.). Investors who might benefit from this tax treatment are advised to consult their usual tax advisor to assess their personal situation with regard to the specific regulations applicable.
Risk factors
The principal risk factors related to the Offering are spelled out below:
- Shareholders who do not exercise their priority rights will see their percentage interest in the Company's equity subsequently diluted by the new shares and warrants.

- The market price of the Company's shares could fluctuate and fall below the subscription price of the new shares following the announcement of the offering, during the subscription period, or at any time after the close of the offering.
- The volatility and the liquidity of the Company's shares could fluctuate significantly.

No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon the exercise of a Warrant and each Warrant Share is issued only upon the exercise of two (2) Warrants.
Any adjustment will be made so that it equalizes, up to the next 1/100th of a share, the value of Warrant Shares that would have been obtained if Warrants had been exercised immediately before the implementation of one of the transactions mentioned in Section 5 and the value of the Warrant Shares that would have been obtained in the event of exercising the Warrants immediately after the implementation of that transaction.

Possible subsequent adjustments will be effected based on the preceding Exercise Ratio as calculated and rounded. The Warrants, however, may only be delivered in a whole number of share.
If the number of Warrant Shares thus calculated is not a whole number, the Holder may request delivery of either:

- the next greater number of Warrant Shares, provided that in such case the Holder pays to the Company an amount equal to the value of the additional fraction of a share thus delivered, calculated on the basis set out in the preceding paragraph.
If the Holder does not state a choice, it will receive a number of Shares rounded down to the nearest whole number, and the remainder in cash as described above.
5. Adjustments of Exercise Ratio and Exercise Price
Warrants issued by the Company are securities giving access to the share capital in the meaning of Article L. 228-91 et seq. of the French Commercial Code.
The Exercise Price and/or the number of Warrant Shares will be subject to adjustment from time to time according to mandatory legal requirements imposed by the French Commercial Code and in particular by articles L. 228-98 to L. 228-106 (with the exception of the provisions of Articles L. 228-99 1°) and L. 228-99 2°)) and articles R. 228-87 to R. 228-92 of this Code.

In particular, following implementation of a capital increase with maintenance of preferential subscription right, the Exercise Ratio will be adjusted in accordance with paragraph 1.a) below.
1.a) for financial transactions (issuance of shares or any other securities of any nature) having a listed preferential right to subscription, the new Exercise Ratio will equal the product of the Exercise Ratio applicable before the start of the transaction at issue and the following ratio:
Value of the share after detaching the preferential subscription rights | ||
+Value of the preferential subscription rights | ||
Value of the share after detaching the preferential subscription rights |
To calculate this ratio, the value of the shares after detaching the preferential subscription rights and the value of the preferential subscription rights are equal to the arithmetic mean of the market prices of their first quotes on the Trading Market (or in the absence of any quote on the Trading Market, on any stock exchange on which the Shares of the Company or the preferential subscription right are listed) during all sessions of the stock exchange included in the subscription period.
b) for financial transactions effected by free allocation of listed subscription rights to shareholders with a correlative right of placement of securities to come from subscription rights not used by their holders during the period of subscription which has opened to them, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to the product of the Exercise Ratio before the start of the transaction contemplated and of the following ratio:
Value of the share after detaching the subscription right | ||
+Value of the subscription right | ||
Value of the share after right detaching the subscription right |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- the value of a share after detaching the subscription right will be equal to the mean average weighted by volumes (i) of the market prices of the Company's Shares on the Trading Market (or in absence of listing on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange on which the Shares are listed) during all stock exchange sessions included in the subscription period, and (ii) (a) of the sale price of the financial securities transferred within a placement, if these financial securities that can be assimilated to existing Shares in the Company, by multiplying the sale price by the volume of Shares sold within the process of placement or (b) of the market prices of the Company's Share on the Trading Market (or in absence of listing on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange on which the Share are quoted) the day the transfer price for the financial securities is fixed within the framework of the placement if these last ones are not the shares similar to the existing Shares of the Company;
- the value of the subscription right will be equal to the mean average weighted by volumes (i) of the market prices of the subscription right on the Trading Market (or in absence of quotation on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange or on a market on which the right is quoted) during all stock exchange sessions included in the subscription period, and (ii) the implicit value of the subscription right resulting from the sale price of the securities sold within the placement framework, which corresponds to the difference (if positive) adjusted to the Exercise Ratio of the subscription, between the sale price of the securities sold within the framework of a placement and the subscription price of securities by exercising subscription right, by multiplying this last so determined value, the corresponding volume of subscription rights exercised for allocating the securities sold in the framework of this placement.
2. In case of free allotment of shares to shareholders, and also in case of regrouping or splitting of Shares, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to the Exercise Ratio obtained before the start of the transaction contemplated and of the following ratio:

Value of the share before distribution | ||
Value of the share before distribution | ||
Amount per share of the distribution or value of securities or assets distributed per share. |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- the value of the Share before distribution will be equal to the mean average weighted by volumes of the market prices of the Company's Share observed on the Trading Market (or in absence of a quotation on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange on which the Share are listed) during the last [ten] sessions of the stock exchange preceding the day the Shares of the Company are quoted ex-distribution;
- if distribution is made in kind:
- in case of delivery of securities already listed on a stock exchange, the value of the securities will be determined as above,
- in case of delivery of securities not yet listed on a stock exchange, the value of securities remitted will be equal, if they should be listed on a stock exchange during the period of ten sessions starting from the date on which the Shares of the Company are listed ex-distribution, to the mean average weighted by volumes of the market prices observed on said market during the [ten] first sessions of the stock exchange included in this period during which said securities are quoted, and
- in all other cases (securities delivered not listed on a stock exchange or listed during less than three stock market sessions during a period of ten sessions mentioned above or distribution of assets), the value of the securities or the assets remitted per share shall be determined by an independent expert of international reputation appointed by the Company.
5. In case of free allocation to shareholders of securities, other than shares of the Company and subject to paragraph 1 b) above, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to:
(a) if the rights to the free allocation of securities were listed on the Trading Market (or in the absence of quotation on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange), the product of the Exercise Ratio applicable before the transaction contemplated and of the following ratio:
Share price ex-right to free allocation+ value of the right to free allocation | ||
Share price ex-right to free allocation |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- the value of the share ex-right of free allocation will be equal to the mean average weighted by volumes of the market prices observed on the Trading Market (or in absence of quotation on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange on which the share ex-right of free allocation is quoted) of the share ex-right of free allocation during the first [ten] sessions of the stock exchange starting on the date on which the shares of the Company are quoted ex-right of free allocation;
- the value of the right to free allocation will be determined as in the above paragraph.
If the right to free allocation is not quoted during each of the [ten] sessions of the stock exchange, its value will be determined by an independent expert of international reputation appointed by the Company.
(b) if the right to free allocation of securities were not listed on the Trading Market (or in the absence of quotation on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange), the product of the Exercise Ratio applicable before the start of the transaction contemplated and of the following ratio:
Share price ex-right to free allocation of shares | ||
Value of that security(ies) granted per share | ||
Share price ex-Right to free allocation |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- the share price ex-right to allocation will be determined as in paragraph a) above.
- if these securities are quoted or can be quoted on the Trading Market (or if not on the Trading Market, on another stock exchange), within ten sessions of the stock exchange starting from the day shares are quoted ex-distribution, the value of the securities given by share will be equal to the mean average weighted by volumes of the prices of these securities observed on said market during the [ten] first sessions of the stock exchange included in this period during which said securities are quoted. If the attributed securities are not quoted during each of these [ten] market sessions, the value of these securities will be determined by an independent expert of international reputation appointed by the Company.
6. In case of absorption of the Company by another company or merger with one or more companies resulting in the incorporation of a new company or spin-off, the exercise of the Warrants will allow allocation of shares of the absorbing company or the new company(ies) or the company(ies) that benefit from the spin-off.
The new Exercise Ratio will be determined by multiplying the Exercise Ratio applicable before the start of the contemplated transaction by the exchange ratio of the Company's shares against the shares of the absorbing company or the new company(ies) or the company(ies) that benefit from the spin-off. These companies will be fully subrogated to the Company's rights and obligations towards the Holders.
7. In case of buyback of the Company of its own Shares (except for buyback made pursuant to article L.225-209 of the French Commercial Code) at a price higher than the stock exchange price, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to the product of the Exercise Ratio applicable before the buyback and the following ratio:
Share price x (1-Pc%) | ||
Share price Pc% x Buyback price |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- Share price means the mean average weighted by volumes of the market prices of the Company's shares on the Trading Market (or in case of absence of quotation on the Trading Market, on another market or a similar market on which the Share are quoted) during the ten last stock exchange sessions preceding the buyback (or the possibility of buyback).
- Pc% means the percentage of total share capital repurchased; and
- Buyback price means the effective buyback price.
8. In case of amortisation of the share capital of the Company, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to the product of the Exercise Ratio on the date before the start of the contemplated transaction and of the following ratio:
Value of the share before amortisation | ||
Value of the share before amortisation amount of the amortisation per share |
For the calculation of the ratio, the share value before amortisation will be equal to the mean weighted by volumes of the market prices of the Company's Shares on the Trading Market (or in case of absence on the Trading Market, on another market or on a similar market on which the Share are quoted) during the ten last sessions of the stock exchange preceding the session the shares of the Company are quoted ex- amortisation.
9. (a) In case of change in the allocation of profits and/or creation of new preference shares resulting in such modification by the Company, the new Exercise Ratio will be equal to the product of the Exercise Ratio before the start of the contemplated transaction and the following ratio:
Share price before modification | ||
Share price before modification reduction per share of the right to profits. |
For the calculation of this ratio:
- the share price before modification means the volume weighted mean average of the prices of the Company's Shares on the Trading Market (or on another market or another similar market where the Shares are quoted) during the last ten sessions of the stock exchange preceding the date of modification;
- the reduction by share on the right to profits will be determined by an independent expert of international reputation appointed by the Company and will be submitted to the approval of the Masse (as defined herein).
If however these preference shares are issued with shareholders' preferential subscription rights or by free distribution of warrants to subscribe to such preference shares, the new Exercise Ratio will be adjusted in accordance to paragraphs 1 or 5 above.
(b) in case of creation of preference shares without a modification in the distribution of profits, the adjustment of the Exercise Ratio that would be necessary will be determined by an independent expert of international reputation appointed by the Company.
If the Company were to carry out transactions where an adjustment had not been completed under paragraphs 1 to 9 above, and should a later law or regulations require an adjustment, the Company shall undertake such adjustment in accordance with the law or regulations then applicable and the market practice observed in France.
