### Overview

We are a veterinary health company creating and marketing products for companion animals by focusing on the unmet needs of clinical veterinarians. Our mission is to enrich the lives of the animals we love and the people that care for them by providing products and technologies that improve patient care and enhance the economic health of veterinary practices. Our product portfolio includes innovative diagnostics and therapeutic medical devices that emphasize patient health and enhancing practice economics.

We currently have six discrete platforms in our product portfolio:

#### Diagnostic Products

- our TRUFORMA® platform, comprising point-of-care diagnostic products for disease states in dogs and cats, providing assays for use at the point-of-care that provide reference lab accuracy, thereby enabling practitioners to diagnose and treat diseases sooner;
- our TRUVIEWTM platform which consists of the TRUVIEW digital cystoscopy instrument providing microscopic images and related pathology services which enable practitioners to receive a Pathologist interpretation of the images;
- our Revo Squared® imaging platform, comprising diagnostic imaging products and services for use in animal health, including the SONOVIEW™ ultrasound system; and
- our VetGuardian® platform, which provides continuous wireless monitoring of pets’ vital signs and provides them remotely to veterinarian practice staff, along with alert messaging should the vital signs rise or fall out of range, to assist in rapidly diagnosing issues;

#### Therapeutic Products

- our world-leading PulseVet® platform, which provides for non-invasive electro-hydraulic shock wave treatment of a wide variety of conditions in horses and small animals, including osteoarthritis, tendon and ligament healing, bone healing, chronic pain relief and wound healing, to promote healing and reduce the need for surgery and/or medication; and
- our Assisi Loop® platform including a series of products that use targeted Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (tPEMF) therapy to decrease pain and inflammation and accelerate healing or reduce anxiety.

As a result of an internal strategic view, we have focused our development and commercialization efforts on our TRUFORMA®, Revo Squared®, VetGuardian, PulseVet, and Assisi Loop platforms. We believe this narrowed focus will enable us to capitalize on our core strengths and to accelerate the commercialization of these existing platforms.

For the foreseeable future, we expect to continue to incur losses, which we expect will begin to decrease from historical levels as we continue the commercialization of our TRUFORMA platform and recognize additional profits from the expansion of the Revo Squared, VetGuardian, PulseVet, and Assisi Loop products, our product development activities, and our sales and marketing activities.

### Revenue

Our revenue consisted of consumables sold in the U.S associated with our TRUFORMA platform; capital and consumables sold in the U.S and internationally associated with our PulseVet platform; consumables sold in the U.S. and internationally associated with our Assisi products, capital associated with our Revo Squared products, and capital associated with our VetGuardian products.

### Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consisted primarily of the cost of raw materials used in the assembly of PulseVet capital and consumables, the cost of TRUFORMA consumables purchased, and the cost of Assisi parts purchased and related sub-components. We expense all inventory obsolescence provisions related to normal manufacturing changes as cost of revenue.

### Operating Expenses

The majority of our operating expenses have been for the selling, general and administrative activities related to general business activities, capital market activities, stock-based compensation, developing a commercial team and research and development activities related to our product development.

### Research and Development Expense

All costs of research and development are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Research and development costs primarily consist of salaries and related expenses for personnel, fees paid to consultants, outside service providers, professional services, travel costs and materials used in clinical trials and research and development.

### Selling, General, and Administrative Expense

Selling, general, and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel costs, including salaries, related benefits and stock-based compensation for employees, consultants and directors. These expenses also include costs associated with sales and marketing activities, professional fees, and corporate administrative and overhead costs, including rent and other facilities costs, amortization, and depreciation.

### U.S. Taxes

As of December 31, 2022, we had net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes of $32,456 and non-capital loss carryforwards for Canada of $46,384, which will begin to expire in fiscal year 2035. We have evaluated the factors bearing upon the realizability of our deferred tax assets, which are comprised principally of net operating loss carryforwards and non-capital loss carryforwards. We concluded that, due to the limitations under Section 382 of the Code, our U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryforwards for the periods prior to February 11, 2021 have been limited to zero. We therefore have derecognized $21,013 of our U.S. deferred tax assets, resulting in a remaining carryforward balance of $11,443.

#### Inflation Reduction Act

On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”) was signed into federal law. The IR Act provides for a new U.S. federal 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of stock by publicly traded U.S. domestic corporations and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of publicly traded foreign corporations occurring on or after January 1, 2023.

The excise tax is imposed on the repurchasing corporation itself, not its shareholders from which shares are repurchased. The amount of the excise tax is generally 1% of the fair market value of the shares repurchased at the time of the repurchase. However, for purposes of calculating the excise tax, repurchasing corporations are permitted to net the fair market value of certain new stock issuances against the fair market value of stock repurchases during the same taxable year. In addition, certain exceptions apply to the excise tax, such as repurchases under $1 million.

Any redemption or other repurchase that occurs after December 31, 2022, in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise, may be subject to the excise tax. Whether and to what extent we would be subject to the excise tax in connection with a business combination, extension vote or otherwise would depend on a number of factors, including (i) the fair market value of the redemptions and repurchases in connection with the business combination, extension or otherwise; (ii) the structure of a business combination; (iii) the nature and amount of any equity issuances in connection with a business combination (or otherwise issued not in connection with a business combination but issued within the same taxable year of a business combination); and (iv) the content of regulations and other guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

The IR Act also included a new 15% Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (“CAMT”) that acts as a new book minimum tax of at least 15% of consolidated GAAP pre-tax income for corporations with average book income in excess of $1 billion. Any increase in our effective tax rate will depend on a number of factors, including any offsets for general business credits or changes in book income following business combinations. The CAMT is effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Lastly, the IR Act also creates several potentially beneficial tax credits to incentivize investments in certain technologies and industries.

We are in the process of evaluating the potential impacts of the IR Act. While we do not believe the IR Act will have a material negative impact on our business or our financial performance, the effects of the measures are unknown at this time. Our analysis is ongoing and incomplete, and it is possible that the IR Act could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our tax liability. We continue to monitor the IR Act and related regulatory developments to evaluate their potential impact on our business, tax rate and financial results.

### Canadian Taxes

In Canada, due to the uncertainty of realizing any tax benefits as of June 30, 2023, we continue to record a full valuation allowance against our Canadian deferred tax assets.

### Translation of Foreign Currencies

The functional currency, as determined by management, for our subsidiaries in the United States, Switzerland, and Canada is the U.S. dollar, which is also our reporting currency.

The functional currency, as determined by management, for our Japanese subsidiary is the Japanese Yen. Japanese Yen are translated for financial reporting purposes with translation gains and losses recorded as a component of other comprehensive income or loss.

### Stock-Based Compensation

We measure the cost of equity-settled transactions by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments at the date at which they are granted.

We calculate stock-based compensation using the fair value method, under which the fair value of the options at the grant date is calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, and subsequently expensed over the vesting period of the option using the graded vesting method. The provisions of our stock-based compensation plans do not require us to settle any options by transferring cash or other assets, and therefore we classify the awards as equity. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest. We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise these estimates, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The expected term, which represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, is estimated based on an average of the term of the options. The risk-free rate assumed in valuing the options is based on the Canadian treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of the option. The expected dividend yield percentage at the date of grant is zero as we are not expected to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

### Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share, or EPS, is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through the exercise or conversion of stock options, restricted stock awards, warrants and convertible securities. In certain circumstances, the conversion of options, warrants and convertible securities are excluded from diluted EPS if the effect of such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

### Comprehensive Loss

We follow FASB ASC topic 220. This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive (loss) income and its components. Comprehensive loss is net loss plus certain items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity.

### Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those described below. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 4 of the notes to our consolidated financial statements, management has identified the following as “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates”: Intangible Assets and Business Combinations; Impairment Testing; Valuation and Payback of Property and Equipment; and Revenue Recognition and Liabilities Due to Customers. We believe that the estimates and assumptions involved in these accounting policies may have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements.

#### Intangible Assets and Business Combinations

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of a business combination are recognized at their acquisition date fair values. In determining fair values for recent business combinations, we utilize various forms of the income, cost, and market approaches depending on the asset or liability being valued.

We use a discounted cash flow model to measure the customer relationship, developed technology, license, trademark, and tradename assets. The estimation of fair value requires significant judgment related to future net cash flows based on assumptions related to revenue and EBITDA growth rates, discount rates, and attrition factors. Inputs are generally determined by taking into account competitive trends, market comparisons, independent appraisals, and historical data, among other factors, and were supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions. Variances in future cash flows, anticipated growth rates, and revenue could significantly impact the value assigned to intangible assets. Any variance could cause impairment charges upon testing.

#### Impairment Testing

We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. When testing goodwill for impairment, we may first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. During a qualitative analysis, we consider the impact of changes, if any, to the following factors: macroeconomic, industry and market factors; cost factors; changes in overall financial performance; and any other relevant events and uncertainties impacting a reporting unit. If our qualitative assessment indicates a goodwill impairment is more likely than not, we perform additional quantitative analyses. We may also elect to skip the qualitative testing and proceed directly to the quantitative testing. For reporting units where a quantitative analysis is performed, we perform a test measuring the fair values of the reporting units and comparing them to their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. If the fair value is less than the carrying value of the reporting unit, an impairment is recognized for the difference, up to the carrying amount of goodwill.

We estimate the fair values of our reporting units using a discounted cash flow method or a weighted combination of discounted cash flows and a market-based method. The discounted cash flow method includes assumptions about a wide variety of internal and external factors. Significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method include financial projections of free cash flow, including revenue trends, medical costs trends, operating productivity, income taxes and capital levels; long-term growth rates for determining terminal value beyond the discretely forecasted periods; and discount rates. Financial projections and long-term growth rates used for our reporting units will be consistent with, and use inputs from, our internal long-term business plan and strategies.

Discount rates will be determined for each reporting unit and include consideration of the implied risk inherent in their forecasts. Our most significant estimate in the discount rate determinations involves our adjustments to the peer company weighted average costs of capital reflecting reporting unit-specific factors. We do not make any adjustments to decrease a discount rate below the calculated peer company weighted average cost of capital for any reporting unit. Company-specific adjustments to discount rates are subjective and thus are difficult to measure with certainty.

The passage of time and the availability of additional information regarding areas of uncertainty with respect to the reporting units’ operations could cause these assumptions to change in the future. Additionally, as part of our quantitative impairment testing, we perform various sensitivity analyses on certain key assumptions, such as discount rates, cash flow projections, and peer company multiples to analyze the potential for a material impact. The market-based method requires determination of an appropriate peer group whose securities are traded on an active market. The peer group is used to derive market multiples to estimate fair value.

#### Valuation and Payback of Property and Equipment

Diagnostic based TRUFORMA® capital is placed in fixed assets once purchased or manufactured, where they remain, undepreciated, until they are placed with our customers under the agreement that they will repeatedly purchase consumables or services which are utilized within. Each instance of this placed capital represents an asset that we own. An estimate is made of the anticipated future revenue over its respective life which is ten years. If the payback period of the initial investment in the asset is less than the ten-year life of the asset, we conclude that the assets have been properly recorded, and no write-down is necessary. We rely on various data points and assumptions, including, but not limited to, the expected volume of consumables which will be sold, anticipated growth rates, and anticipated placements. Realization of the anticipated revenue is dependent on the current assumptions and forecasted models.

The customer is obligated to purchase consumables during the placement period. However, since the customer is not obligated to purchase the capital, and can return it at any time, we are exposed to a risk of loss to the extent the customer returns the capital and discontinues consumable or related service purchases.

On June 30, 2023, the carrying value of our Diagnostic instruments was $5,715. Significant assumptions included in the realization model are the rate of placement and expected utilization over the life of the instrument.

The effect of a 25% reduction in the estimated revenues associated with annual placements of instruments would increase the payback period on June 30, 2023 from 5.18 years to 7.27 years.

#### Revenue Recognition and Liabilities Due to Customers

The nature of our Therapeutics business segment gives rise to variable consideration, including discounts and applicator (“trode”) returns for refurbishment. Credits are issued for unused shocks on returned trodes, which can be used toward the purchase of replacement trodes. When revenue is recognized, a simultaneous adjustment for returns is estimated, reducing revenue. Estimated return credits are presented as a reduction to gross sales with the corresponding reserve presented as customer contract liabilities.

Variable consideration related to unused shock credits is calculated using the expected value method, which estimates the amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Estimates of variable consideration are based upon historical experience and known trends. These estimated credits are non-refundable and may only be used towards the purchase of future trode refurbishments. This practice encourages refurbishment purchase prior to complete utilization of the previous trode, enabling the customer to always have a trode on hand with ample capacity to perform treatments.

The number of trodes returned by year is tracked against the number of trodes sold in that same year, creating a current experience rate. It is assumed that the ultimate return rate for the trodes is 98%. For annual calculations, it is assumed that the expected returns in the current year for each layer increase to the experience rate of the year immediately preceding it. Once the 98% is reached the layer is removed from the calculation. The annual incremental change in expected returns is multiplied by an average return credit amount, generating the current liability due to customers.

The average return credit is calculated by dividing the actual shock credits issued by the actual number of trodes returned. A variance in the assumed return rate compared to the actual rate would impact the estimate and potentially understate net sales (overestimated rate) or overstate net sales (underestimated rate) in any given year and create a corresponding misstatement of the liability due to customers.

On June 30, 2023, the estimated value of our Therapeutics customer contract liability was $546. If the expected return rate was increased by 2%, the effect on current year reduction in sales and customer liability would have been approximately $54.

### Results of Consolidated Operations

Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are as follows:

#### Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $6,020, compared to $4,246 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,774 or 42%. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $11,502, compared to $7,997 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $3,505 or 44%.

The increase for both comparative periods was primarily due to the inclusion of our Assisi®, Revo Squared®, and VetGuardian® products which were not part of our consolidated figures as of June 30, 2022.

In general, we expect revenue to increase in subsequent periods as we benefit from a full year’s worth of sales from our recent acquisitions and increase our related sales, marketing, and commercialization efforts.

#### Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $1,972, compared to $1,240 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $732 or 59%. Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $3,619, compared to $2,250 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,369 or 61%.

The increase in cost for both comparative periods was primarily driven by increased manufacturing expense as a result of increased sales and rising input costs.

We anticipate that costs of revenue will increase in subsequent periods in accordance with the increased revenue as described above.

#### Gross Profit

Gross profit margin for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 67%, compared to 71% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Gross profit margin for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was 69%, compared to 72% for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

The decrease in gross profit margin % for both comparative periods was primarily due to the integration and launch of several new products, product mix impacts associated with sales of these new offerings, and price increases of certain component parts. In general, we believe gross margins will return to historic levels in the coming quarters.

#### Research and Development

Research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $859, compared to $319 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $540 or 169%. Research and development expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $1,777, compared to $670 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,107 or 165%.

The increase for both comparative periods was primarily driven by our continued buildup of internal capabilities to develop, test, and manufacture our next generation of diagnostic products.

We anticipate that R&D costs will increase as we maintain and enhance our current product lines and continue to develop new products.

#### Selling, General, and Administrative

Selling, general, and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $9,931, compared to $8,567 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,364 or 16%. Selling, general, and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $20,360, compared to $15,270 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $5,090 or 33%.

The increase for both comparative periods was primarily driven by salaries and noncash stock option expense associated with increased hiring campaigns, noncash amortization related to our Assisi / Revo acquisitions, recruiting and other related fees associated with our transition to a new Chief Financial Officer, and increased marketing campaigns / attendance at tradeshows to build brand awareness and recognition of our expanding suite of products.

We expect future selling, general and administrative expense to increase in line with product expansion and growth in our commercialization efforts.

#### Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $5,249, compared to a loss of $5,273 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $24 or 1%. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $11,634, compared to a loss of $9,210 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2,424 or 26%.

The net loss for each comparative periods was attributed to the matters described above. We expect to continue to record net losses in future periods until such time as we have sufficient revenue from product sales to offset our operating expenses.

#### Cash Flows

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the periods set forth below:

| ​ ​ ​ | ​ | ​ ​ Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 | ​ | ​ ​ 2022 | ​ ​ | ​ ​ ​ ​ Change | ​ ​ ​ ​ |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | ---: |
| Cash used in operating activities | ​ | $(7,933) | ​ | $(6,517) | ​ | $(1,416) | 22% |
| Cash provided by (used in) investing activities |  | ​ 8,529 |  | ​ (1,643) | ​ | ​ 10,172 | (619)% |
| **(Decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents** |  | ​ **596** |  | ​ **(8,160)** | ​ | **​** **8,756** | **(107)%** |
| Effect of exchange rate changes on cash |  | ​ (44) |  | ​ (29) | ​ | ​ (15) | 52% |
| Cash and cash equivalents, beginning of period |  | ​ 27,399 |  | ​ 194,952 | ​ | ​ (167,553) | (86)% |
| **Cash and cash equivalents, end of period** | ​ | $27,951 | ​ | $186,763 | ​ | **$(158,812)** | **(85)%** |

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $7,933, compared to $6,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase in cash used of $1,416 or 22%. The increase in cash used in operations primarily resulted from the losses noted above, non-cash accretion on currently held available-for-sale securities that didn’t exist in 2022, and lower stock compensation which typically offsets cash impacts due to its non-cash nature. These were partially offset by increases in non-cash amortization and lower inventory due to the reclass of TRUFORMA® device inventory into PP&E as described within.

Net cash for investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was an inflow of $8,529, compared to cash used of $1,643 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase in cash of $10,172 or 619%. The increase in cash obtained in investing activities primarily resulted from the maturity of available for sale securities offset by payments for Qorvo licenses and the buildup of construction in progress related to our MyZomedica platform and production of TRUVIEWTM devices for launch preparation.

There was no cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022.

### Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception in May 2015. As of June 30, 2023, we had an accumulated deficit of $148,038. We have funded our working capital requirements primarily through the sale of our equity and equity-related securities and the exercise of stock options and warrants.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had working capital (defined as current assets minus current liabilities) of $132,415.

#### Short-Term Cash Requirements

We believe that our existing cash is sufficient to fund our expected short-term needs. We currently have fixed obligations in association with our building leases and quarterly inventory orders. We also have payment obligations associated with our on-going clinical studies, and we expect that we have sufficient cash to cover these requirements. We do not expect that our operations will require significant increases in our short-term cash needs.

#### Long-Term Cash Requirements

We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund our expected operational requirements through at least December 2025. We regularly evaluate our business plans and strategy. These evaluations often result in changes to our business plans and strategy, some of which may be material and significantly change our cash requirements. Ongoing business development activity may also require us to use some of our liquidity and use of additional capital to fund newly acquired operations. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our existing security holders will likely experience dilution, and the incurring of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict operations.

Our future capital requirements depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

- the costs and timing of our development and commercialization activities;
- the cost of manufacturing our existing and future products;
- the cost of marketing and selling our existing and future products including marketing, sales, service, customer support and distribution costs;
- the expenses needed to attract and retain skilled personnel;
- the costs associated with being a public company;
- the costs associated with additional business development or mergers and acquisitions activity, including acquisition-related costs, earn-outs or other contingent payments and costs of developing and commercializing any technologies to which we obtain rights;
- third-party costs associated with the development and commercialization of our existing and future products and the ability of our development partners to satisfy our requirements on a timely basis;
- the scope and terms of our business plans from time to time, and our ability to realize upon our business plans; and
- the costs involved in preparing, filing, prosecuting, maintaining, defending and enforcing possible patent claims, including litigation costs and the outcome of any such litigation.

### Climate Change

Zomedica is committed to responsible practices regarding the use of natural resources. Increased public awareness and concern about climate change will likely continue to (1) generate more regional and/or national requirements to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; (2) increase energy efficiency and reduce carbon pollution; and (3) cause a shift to cleaner and more sustainable sources of energy which may be more expensive than using fossil fuels as an energy source.

The potential impact of climate change on our operations and the needs of our customers remains uncertain. Scientists have proposed that the impacts of climate change could include changes in rainfall patterns, water shortages, changes to the water levels of lakes and other bodies of water, changing storm patterns, more intense storms and changing temperature levels. These changes could be severe and vary by geographic location. Climate change may also affect the occurrence of certain natural events, the incidence and severity of which are inherently unpredictable.

The effects of climate change also may impact our decisions to construct new buildings or maintain existing facilities in any areas that are or become prone to physical risks, which could similarly increase our operating costs. We could also face indirect financial risks passed through the supply chain that could result in higher prices for resources, such as energy. Additionally, climate change may adversely impact the demand, price and availability of property and casualty insurance that insures our physical assets. Due to significant economic variability associated with future changing climate conditions, we are unable to predict the impact climate change will have on us in the future.
