Distributed by Pod Dispatch · Originally issued via SEC EDGAR

MAHWAH, NJ – November 10, 2026 — KORU Medical Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: KRMD) (“KORU Medical” or the “Company”), a leading medical technology company focused on the development, manufacturing, and commercialization of innovative and patient-centric large volume subcutaneous infusion solutions, today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Third Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights

● Net revenues grew 11% over the prior year period to $11.6 million; year to date net revenues grew 17% to $35.4 million
   
● Gross profit grew 20% over the prior year period to $7.5 million, driven by gross margin improvement from 60.2% to 65.2%
   
● Net income improved by $1.0 million to $0.2 million compared to a net loss of $0.8 million in prior year period
   
● Adjusted EBITDA increased to $1.3 million from $0.1 million in the prior year period
   
● Signed two new sales and distribution agreements with partners in Europe and Africa, expanding our geographic footprint internationally
   
● Revising full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $48.0 - $48.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of 17% - 18%, compared to the previous guidance range of $47.5 - $48.5 million.

“Total Revenue of $11.6 million represents another quarter of consistent above-market growth for KORU, driven by our recurring patient base,” said Adam Kalbermatten, President and CEO of KORU Medical. “We also delivered positive net income and adjusted EBITDA for the second consecutive quarter, demonstrating the scalability of our business model. As anticipated, our year-over-year revenue growth moderated in the third quarter compared to the first half of 2026, reflecting in part the timing of our entry into a competitive non-tender market in Europe. With that market launch now behind us, we anticipate revenue growth to reaccelerate in the fourth quarter for a strong finish to the year. We are encouraged by our geographic expansion, specialty pharmacy partnerships, and pipeline advancements and plan to continue investing resources in our long-term growth strategy as we move forward.”

2026 Third Quarter Financial Results

  Change from Prior Year   % of Net Revenues  
    2026   2025   $   %   2026   2025  
Net Revenues                                
Domestic Core   $ 8,058,131     6,122,365   $ 1,935,766   31.6%   69.6%   58.9%  
International Core     3,084,050     3,695,524     (611,474 ) (16.5% ) 26.7%   35.5%  
Total Core     11,142,181     9,817,889     1,324,292   13.5%   96.3%   94.4%  
Pharma Services and Clinical Trials     424,374     584,274     (159,900 ) (27.4% ) 3.7%   5.6%  
Total   $ 11,566,555     10,402,163   $ 1,164,392   11.2%   100%   100%  

Total net revenues increased $1.2 million, or 11.2%, to $11.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $10.4 million in the prior year period.

Domestic core revenues were $8.1 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 31.6%, compared to the prior-year period. Approximately $1.2 million of the increase reflected lower orders from a U.S. distributor in the third quarter of 2025, when the distributor purchased a portion of its KORU products through one of our international distributors and reduced its inventory levels. The remaining increase was primarily driven by higher pump and consumable volumes, new patient starts, and market share gains within existing accounts.

International core revenues were $3.1 million, a decrease of 16.5% compared to the prior-year period. The decrease primarily reflected a higher prior-year comparison base, which included shipments to a distributor in a strategic market in anticipation of demand associated with conversions from vials to prefilled products, as well as purchases by an international distributor for subsequent resale in the U.S. The decrease was partially offset by growth in new patient starts within existing international markets.

As discussed above, purchases through the international distributor for resale in the U.S. affected the geographic mix of Core revenues in the prior-year period and, consequently, the year-over-year comparisons of Domestic and International Core revenues.

Pharma services and clinical trials net revenues were $0.4 million, a decrease of 27.4% compared to the prior-year period, primarily reflecting lower purchases of products for use in a customer's clinical trial program.

Gross profit increased $1.3 million, or 20.5%, to $7.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $6.3 million in the prior year period, primarily driven by gross margin and volume growth. Gross margin increased to 65.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to 60.2% in the prior year period, primarily driven by lower manufacturing costs, higher than average selling prices from our geographical customer mix and lower tariff costs driven by tariff related rebates.

Total operating expenses increased $0.2 million, or 3.2%, to $7.4 million for the third quarter of 2026 primarily driven by an increase of $0.3 million in research and development. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to higher salary and stock compensation related to headcount additions, including employees added in connection with our technology asset acquisition.

Net income increased $1.0 million to $0.2 million or $0.00 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss of ($0.8) million, or ($0.02) per diluted share, for the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was $1.3 million, or $0.02 per adjusted diluted share versus $0.1 million or $0.00 per adjusted diluted share in the prior year period. A reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is provided at the end of this press release.

Cash and cash equivalents were $7.4 million as of September 30, 2026, reflecting cash usage of $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2026.

Updated 2026 Guidance

● Revising full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $48.0 - $48.5 million, representing year-over-year growth of 17% - 18%, compared to the previous guidance range of $47.5 - $48.5 million.
   
● Revising full year 2026 gross margin to be between 63 - 64%, from prior range of 62 – 64%
   
● Reiterating positive adjusted EBITDA for the full year
   
● Raising year-end cash balance to be greater than $8.0 million, from prior guidance of greater than $7.5 million

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release includes the non-GAAP financial measures “adjusted diluted EPS” and “adjusted EBITDA” that are not in accordance with, nor an alternate to, generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on KORU Medical’s reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate the Company’s financial results. Non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with GAAP financial results. Reconciliations of the Company’s non-GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release.
