Investor presentation summary
3 Nov, 2026Business and product
SynCardia Total Artificial Heart (STAH) is the only commercially available FDA- and Health Canada-approved total artificial heart; approved for sale in the U.S. and Canada for indicated bridge-to-transplant use.
STAH replaces both ventricles and all four valves, is available in 50cc and 70cc sizes, and can use hospital or portable home drivers.
More than 2,100 implants have been performed across 27 countries; the longest reported patient support exceeded 8 years.
Clinical evidence and market need
In the 2004 pivotal trial, survival to transplant was 79% with STAH versus 46% in controls; overall one-year survival was 70% versus 31%.
At least 300,000 U.S. patients with advanced heart failure may benefit from durable mechanical circulatory support; the 2024 transplant waitlist exceeded 9,400 patients.
More than 5,500 patients are added to the U.S. waitlist annually, while 4,636 donor hearts were transplanted in 2024.
Growth strategy and product pipeline
Growth priorities include expanding Centers of Excellence, physician training and patient access, while scaling manufacturing and supply chains to improve capacity and gross margins.
The Unicorn next-generation pneumatic driver is planned to progress through prototype completion in 2025, design freeze and bench testing in 2026, clinical evaluation in 2028, and a potential commercialization milestone in 2029; timelines may change.
The Emperor program targets a fully implantable TAH platform: design lock and validation in 2027, GLP animal studies in 2028, clinical development from 2029+, and potential commercialization in 2032; milestones are projected and subject to change.
NMPA timing is expected in Q4 2027; EU MDR certification and other international approvals remain pending or under evaluation.
