### Overview

We are an innovative health technology business with a mission to revolutionize patient care globally through transformational, accessible, clinically relevant diagnostic imaging and data solutions. Our Swoop® Portable Magnetic Resonance (“MR”) Imaging® System (“Swoop® system”) produces high-quality images at a lower magnetic field strength than conventional magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) scanners. The Swoop® system is a bedside magnetic resonance imaging device for producing images that display the internal structures of the head where full diagnostic examination is not clinically practical. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis. The easy-to-use interface and portable design of our Swoop® system make it accessible anywhere in a hospital, clinic, or patient care site. We are working to realize our vision of providing affordable and accessible imaging of health conditions to clinicians worldwide.

MRI is a medical imaging technique used in radiology to image the human body’s anatomy and physiological processes. MRI is typically used in various clinical settings for medical diagnosis, the staging of disease, and follow-up treatment. Unlike X-ray computed tomography (“CT”) or positron emission tomography (“PET”), MRI does not expose patients to harmful ionizing radiation. We believe MRI offers unrivaled clarity in assessing brain structure and pathology.

The demand for MRI has been increasing due to the aging population and the rising prevalence of neurological, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative conditions. Healthcare professionals and insurers recognize imaging as an effective, non-invasive diagnostic tool for evaluation and ongoing monitoring. The Swoop® system is the next generation MRI device designed to increase access to MRI in a cost-effective manner and expand the current $32 billion imaging market.

Despite its advantages, many healthcare institutions worldwide lack the facilities, qualified operators, and capital necessary to acquire and maintain expensive MRI devices. The Swoop® system, the world’s first MR imaging system capable of providing neuroimaging at the point of care, can inform the timely diagnosis and treatment of acute conditions within a broad range of clinical settings. We designed the Swoop® system to address the limitations of current imaging technologies and make MR imaging accessible nearly anytime and anywhere in a hospital setting. We believe the adoption of the Swoop® system by healthcare professionals has benefits across healthcare communities in both high and low resource settings.

The Swoop® system integrates deep learning, a form of artificial intelligence, as a component of its image processing for T1, T2 and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (“FLAIR”) sequences. Our future product roadmap also includes development of an artificial intelligence ("AI") algorithm for our diffusion-weighted imaging (“DWI”) sequence. The integration of deep learning does not require any additional steps from the user. As a result, deep learning enhances the image quality and, consequently, the diagnostic value of images generated at ultra-low field. The algorithms are designed to improve the image quality of our scan output, while reducing the impact of scan artifacts. The images created with these algorithms were validated by expert radiologists and our latest software update has received FDA clearance. As we move forward, we are continuously investing in improving our AI-driven image quality, leveraging each imaging-focused software release to further improve the Swoop® System performance.

Legacy Hyperfine received initial 510(k) clearance for brain imaging from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) in 2020. In February 2023, we received 510(k) clearance from the FDA of the latest update of our Swoop® system software. This updated software significantly improves DWI image quality. The Swoop® system has since been authorized for brain imaging in several countries, including the European Union (CE marking), the United Kingdom (UKCA), Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

In December 2022, we suspended the development of our Liminal brain sensing platform which was the focus of Liminal and was in the early stages of development to non-invasively measure key vital signs in the brain. Also, in December 2022, we announced an organizational restructuring designed to decrease our costs and create a more streamlined organization to support our business. As a result, we terminated approximately 13% of our global workforce including, among others, the employees of our subsidiary, Liminal. In connection with the restructuring, we incurred $1.0 million of costs consisting primarily of cash severance costs, other severance benefits, fixed asset impairment costs and other related restructuring costs. We substantially completed the restructuring in the first quarter of 2023. We may also incur additional costs not currently contemplated due to events that may occur as a result of, or that are associated with, the restructuring.

### Key Performance Metrics

We review the key performance measures discussed below to evaluate the business and measure performance, identify trends, formulate plans and make strategic decisions.

### Installed Base

The Swoop® system total installed base consists of three components, discussed in further detail below: Commercial system installations (which make up total revenue), grant fulfillment installations, and research unit installations. The Swoop® system total installed base (or total installed units) is the number of Swoop® system devices sold to or deployed to hospitals, other healthcare providers, and research institutions. We view the total installed base as a key metric of the growth of our business and is measured from period over period. As of June 30, 2023, we had a total of 131 Swoop® systems installed, including 25 research units which are installed, at no cost to the institutions, to validate and expand clinical use cases.

Presented below is a breakout of total Swoop® systems installed as of June 30, 2023 and 2022:

|  | TOTAL INSTALLED UNITS As of June 30, 2023 | As of June 30, 2022 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Commercial systems installations | 86 | 47 |
| Grant fulfillment installations | 20 | 20 |
|  | 106 | 67 |
| Research units | 25 | 25 |
| **Total Installed Units** | 131 | 92 |

*Commercial system installations* reflect device sales and subscription services through commercial agreements (commercial sales) or through research transfer agreements ("RTA") sales. Commercial sales are made to hospitals and other healthcare providers as direct sales of devices and software subscription and support services or through subscriptions for the use of the device and software. RTA sales represent the sale of Swoop® system units for research use purposes. Our revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is derived from commercial sales and RTA sales.

*Grant fulfillment installations* consist of shipments of Swoop® system units to hospitals and other clinical facilities designated by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (“BMGF”). The corresponding funding for these installations from BMGF is recorded as a reduction in the research and development expenses when realized during the period.

*Research units* represent installed units, at no cost to the institutions, to expand clinical use cases. The installation of research units is recorded as a fixed asset with the related depreciation recorded as research and development expense over the life of the research unit.

### Factors Affecting Results of Operations

The following factors have been important to our business and we expect them to impact our results of operations and financial condition in future periods:

### Technical innovation

We have developed our Swoop® system through extensive research and development activities. Moreover, our team is dedicated to clinical support programs designed to integrate the Swoop® system into an array of diverse healthcare environments. We believe that, from our commercial and clinical experience, we are gaining invaluable insights into the Swoop system’s utility. We believe these learnings will enable us to develop new services and tools in the future. Specifically, we are keen on leveraging our strengths in AI and cloud technology to transform the system into a bedside clinical decision support platform. These ongoing efforts are designed to provide automated, streamlined insights to clinicians, ultimately reducing the time to diagnosis. Additionally, we are continuously improving our image quality and imaging capabilities. Building upon this foundation and our expertise in ultra-low field MRI, we plan to develop new imaging applications, broadening the range of clinical uses for our technology. While these technical innovations may increase our research and development expenses, we expect them to have a positive impact on our results of operations and profitability in the future.

### Commercialization efforts on the Swoop® system

While our results have included revenue from outside the United States, our primary commercial focus is on the United States. Legacy Hyperfine received initial 510(k) clearance from the FDA in 2020. We are focused on building relationships and executing contracts with U.S. hospital systems. We are building a direct sales organization in the United States and have recently made changes within our sales and clinical support teams who are working in strong collaboration to increase adoption, support successful implementations and drive routine use at customer sites.

### Expand sales in international markets

The countries in which we have begun commercializing our Swoop® system include Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan. We obtained a Medical Device License issued by Health Canada, UKCA certification in the United Kingdom, CE marking in the EU and regulatory authorization in Australia and New Zealand.

While we will maintain our commercial focus in the United States in 2023 and 2024, our commitment to the vision of providing affordable and accessible imaging that enables earlier detection and timely management of health conditions worldwide is currently made possible by grant funding from the BMGF. Through our engagement with BMGF, we have deployed and continue to deploy the Swoop® system in low-middle income settings without readily-accessible MRI technology. The multiple grants provided by our research partnership with BMGF, which commenced funding in the spring of 2020, support the deployment of 25 Swoop® system and accessories to investigators. At June 30, 2023, 20 Swoop® system units were provisioned and delivered to BMGF and the majority of the milestones for service deliverables were also met. The ongoing investigation is designed to provide data to validate the potential use of the Swoop® system in measuring the impact of maternal anemia, malnutrition, infection, and birth-related injury. In May 2023, we were awarded an additional grant from the BMGF to continue to develop a scalable approach to measuring neurodevelopment via low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonates, infants, and young children in low-to-middle income countries.

| Other income (expense), net | $25 | $1 | $24 | 2,400.0% | $31 | $(4) | $35 | (875.0)% |

Other income (expense), net had a favorable increase in other income of $24 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022. This favorable increase in other income was driven primarily by an increase in interest income from customer financing of approximately $11 thousand and a net realized gain on foreign currencies of approximately $14 thousand.

Other income (expense), net had a favorable increase in other income of $35 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2022. This favorable increase in other income was driven primarily by an increase in interest income from customer financing of approximately $19 thousand and a net realized gain on foreign currencies of approximately $11 thousand.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have funded our operations primarily with proceeds from the issuance of common and preferred stock. We have incurred significant cash burn and recurring net losses, which includes a net loss of $22.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and an accumulated deficit of $232.3 million as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $93.9 million. As we continue to invest in research and development of our products and sales and marketing, we expect to continue to incur a significant cash burn and recurring net losses for the foreseeable future until such time that our product and services sales generate enough gross profit to cover our operating expenses. However, we can provide no assurance that our product and service sales will generate a net profit in the future or that our cash resources will be sufficient to continue our commercialization and development activities.

Our ability to access capital when needed is not assured and, if capital is not available when, and in the amounts needed, we could be required to delay, scale back or abandon some or all of our development programs, commercialization of our products, and other operations which could materially harm our operations, financial condition and operating results. We expect that our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with proceeds from the sales of our products and services, will enable us to conduct our planned operations for at least the next 12 months. Factors that could accelerate cash needs include: (i) delays in achieving scientific and technical milestones; (ii) unforeseen capital expenditures and fabrication costs related to manufacturing; (iii) changes we may make in our business or commercialization and hiring strategy; (iv) costs of running a public company; (v) higher inflation and increases in product transportation and labor costs; and (vi) other items affecting our forecasted level of expenditures and use of cash resources including potential acquisitions. As part of the prioritization of our projects and expenditures, in December 2022, we suspended the development of our Liminal brain sensing platform, which was the focus of Liminal and was in the early stages of development to non-invasively measure key vital signs in the brain.

We expect to use our funds to further invest in the development of our products and services, commercial expansion, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Our future cash requirements will depend on many factors, including market adoption of our products, the cost and timing of establishing additional sales, marketing and distribution capabilities; the cost of our research and development activities; our ability to enter into and maintain collaborations; the cost and timing of potential future regulatory clearances or approvals for our products; and the effect of competing technological and market developments. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain additional funds on acceptable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity or equity-linked securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. Future debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting our operations or our ability to incur additional debt. Any debt or equity financing that we raise may contain terms that are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. If we do not have or are not able to obtain sufficient funds, we may have to delay development or commercialization of our products. We also may have to reduce marketing, customer support or other resources devoted to our products and services or cease operations.

### Cash

As of June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $93.9 million. Our future capital requirements may vary from those currently planned and will depend on various factors including further development costs, commercialization strategy, international expansion, and regulatory costs. If we need additional funds and are unable to obtain funding on a timely basis, we may need to curtail significantly our product development and commercialization efforts to provide sufficient funds to continue our operations, which could adversely affect our business prospects.

### Cash flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

*(In thousands)*

|  | Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 | 2022 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Net cash used in operating activities | $(23,150) | $(44,200) |
| Net cash used in investing activities | (283) | (254) |
| Net cash provided by financing activities | 107 | 2 |
| **Net decrease in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash** | **$(23,326)** | **$(44,452)** |

#### Net cash used in operating activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities of $23.2 million was due primarily to a net loss of $22.8 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $3.2 million, partially offset by non-cash items of $2.8 million. Non-cash items were primarily stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million and depreciation expense of $0.5 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were driven primarily by an increase in accounts receivable and unbilled receivables of $1.8 million driven primarily by increased revenue, a decrease in accrued expense and other current liabilities of $1.8 million driven primarily by lower bonus and salary and benefit accrual due to a lean executive leadership team and decreased headcount, and an increase in inventory of $1.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.9 million, an increase in accounts payable of $0.7 million, a decrease in prepaid inventory of $0.3 million and an increase in deferred grant funding of $0.2 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities of $44.2 million was due primarily to a net loss of $46.9 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $9.0 million, partially offset by non-cash items of $11.7 million. Non-cash items were primarily stock-based compensation expense of $11.2 million including $2.5 million related to costs associated with the Company’s former CEO grant agreement, specifically the non-recurring expense of certain equity awards, and depreciation expense of $0.5 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities were driven primarily by an increase in accounts receivable and unbilled receivables of $2.5 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.2 million, a decrease in due to related parties of $1.9 million, a decrease in accrued expense and other current liabilities of $2.0 million, a decrease in deferred grant funding of $1.1 million and an increase in inventory of $0.3 million.

#### Net cash used in investing activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash used in investing activities of $0.3 million was from fixed assets purchased.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of $0.3 million was from fixed assets purchased.

#### Net cash provided by financing activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities of $0.1 million was proceeds from option exercises.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, net cash provided by financing activities of $2 thousand was proceeds from option exercises.

### Contractual obligations

We sponsor a 401(k) defined contribution plan covering all eligible U.S. employees. Contributions to the 401(k) plan are discretionary. We did not make any matching contributions to the 401(k) plan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022.

In April 2020, we received a $1.6 million grant from the BMGF for the provision and equipping of 20 sites with our portable point-of-care MRI system to enable the performance of a multi-site study focused on optimizing diagnostic image quality through February 2023. During the third quarter of 2021, we were awarded an additional $3.3 million grant, of which $2.5 million was received from the BMGF in September 2021. During the second quarter of 2022, we received the remaining amount of $0.8 million. On March 29, 2023, the term of BMGF grant agreement was extended to February 28, 2024. On May 16, 2023, we were awarded an additional $3.4 million grant from the BMGF to continue to develop a scalable approach to measuring neurodevelopment via low-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in neonates, infants, and young children in low-to-middle income countries through February 2026, of which $0.5 million was received by June 30, 2023. Refer to Note 12 in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the BMGF grant. Any grant funds, plus any income, that have not been used for, or committed to, the project must be returned promptly to BMGF upon expiration of or termination of the agreement. Both of the grants are designed to support the deployment of a total of 25 Swoop® system devices and other services to investigators, which commenced in the spring of 2021, and was expected to fund the program for approximately two years. At June 30, 2023, 20 Swoop® system units were provisioned and delivered to BMGF and certain milestones for service deliverables were also met. These grants are designed to provide data to validate the use of our Swoop® system in measuring the impact of maternal anemia, malnutrition, infection and birth related injury.

Our purchase commitments and obligations include all open purchase orders and contractual obligations in the ordinary course of business, including commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers, for which we have not received the goods or services. A majority of these purchase obligations are due within a year. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the terms generally allow us the option to cancel, reschedule, and adjust our requirements based on our business needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services.

We had no other significant contractual obligations as of June 30, 2023.

For information on contingencies, refer to Note 12 in the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

### Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported revenue generated and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about items that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Except as described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements”, to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 22, 2023.

### Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

A description of recently issued accounting pronouncements that may potentially impact our financial position and results of operations is disclosed in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

## Market risk

As filed, 2,149 characters.

We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our results of operations or financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in interest rates, inflation risk, and foreign exchange risk. We do not hold, issue or enter into any financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. We do not have significant exposure to foreign currencies.

### Interest Rate Risk

Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2023 consisted of $95 million in money market funds, demand deposit and savings accounts. Such interest-earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. The goals of our investment policy are liquidity and capital preservation. We believe that we do not have any material exposure to changes in the fair value of these assets as a result of changes in interest rates due to the short-term nature of our cash equivalents. Based on our balance sheet position at June 30, 2023, the annualized effect of a 0.5 percentage point decrease in interest rates would be to decrease earnings before income taxes by $0.5 million.

### Inflation Risk

Inflation has increased in recent periods and may increase in the future. We rely on a single contract manufacturer; inflation generally affects us by increasing our cost of manufacturing and a higher cost of certain key components. To the extent our costs are impacted by general inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases or manufacturing efficiencies. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

### Foreign Exchange Risk

We operate our business primarily within the United States and currently execute the majority of our transactions in U.S. dollars. We have not utilized hedging strategies with respect to such foreign exchange exposure. This limited foreign currency translation risk is not expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 6,216 characters.

### Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2023. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

### Remediation of the Previously Identified Material Weaknesses

As previously disclosed, we had identified two material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As previously disclosed, prior to the Closing of the Business Combination in December 2021, Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal were private companies and had limited accounting and financial reporting personnel and other resources with which to address its internal controls and procedures. We outsourced our accounting and financial reporting to 4Catalyzer Corporation (“4C”) and did not have our own finance function to appropriately perform the supervision and review of the information received from 4C and assess its reasonableness and accuracy. As a result, in connection with the combined financial statement close process of Legacy Hyperfine and Liminal for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

In addition, as previously disclosed, HealthCor previously recorded a portion of its Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in permanent equity. Notwithstanding the presence of maximum redemption thresholds or charter provisions common in special purpose acquisition companies (“SPACs”) that provide a limitation on redemptions that would cause a SPAC’s net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001, in accordance with SEC Staff guidance on redeemable equity instruments, ASC 480-10-S99, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”, and EITF Topic D-98, “Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities”, and, according to SEC Staff communications with certain independent auditors, redemption provisions not solely within the control of the issuing company require ordinary shares subject to redemption to be classified outside of permanent equity. Although we did not specify a maximum redemption threshold in HealthCor’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “HealthCor Articles”), the HealthCor Articles provided that we could not redeem our public shares in an amount that would cause our net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001. In light of the SEC Staff communications with certain independent auditors, our management re-evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, and based upon that evaluation, we concluded that the misclassification of the Class A ordinary shares was quantitatively material to individual line items within the balance sheet. This resulted in a restatement of the initial carrying value of the Class A ordinary shares subject to possible redemption, with the offset recorded to additional paid-in capital (to the extent available), accumulated deficit and ordinary shares. We concluded that the foregoing represents a material weakness in our internal controls over financial reporting.

In response to these material weaknesses, our management has expended a substantial amount of effort and resources for the remediation of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. Our management developed a remediation plan, which included the hiring of accounting and finance resources, including the Chief Administrative Officer and Chief Financial Officer and Vice President, Controller with technical public company accounting and financial reporting experience, as well as other team members. We also have access to accounting training, literature, research materials and increased communication among our personnel and outsourced third-party professionals with whom we may consult regarding the application of complex accounting transactions. Our remediation plan has been accomplished over time to achieve our objectives. We believe these actions are sufficient to remediate the identified material weaknesses and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. During the second quarter of 2023, we completed testing of the operating effectiveness of the controls and have concluded that the material weaknesses have been remediated as of June 30, 2023.

Management has concluded that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with U.S. GAAP for each of the periods presented therein.

### Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Except as described above with respect to the remediation of controls related to the material weaknesses, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

### PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

### Item1. Legal Proceedings

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings.

## Risk factors
