Profound Medical Corp. (PROF) - Ansoff Matrix: Market Penetration

You're looking at how Profound Medical Corp. (PROF) plans to squeeze more revenue out of its existing market-the current installed base of TULSA-PRO systems and the urology segment it already serves. This is about depth, not breadth, in the current playing field.

The core of this strategy rests on maximizing the use of the technology you've already placed. As of the third quarter of 2025, the TULSA-PRO installed base stood at exactly 70 systems. Management noted that achieving this installed base, combined with existing system utilization, drove record total revenues for the quarter. To really drive home the penetration, you need to see how these systems are being used across the patient spectrum.

Here's a quick look at the patient mix treated by TULSA-PRO customers in the third quarter of 2025:

• Treated for prostate cancer only: 79%
• Hybrid patients (cancer and BPH): 14%
• Salvage cases: 3%
• BPH only: 2.5%

The flexibility of the procedure is key here; for instance, 45% of cases by intention-to-treat were whole gland ablations, while 26% were hemi-ablations. This shows the installed base is being used across various treatment protocols.

A major near-term catalyst for increasing utilization and driving new capital sales is the new reimbursement structure. The U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) established a Category 1 CPT code for the Transurethral Ultrasound Ablation (TULSA) procedure, effective January 1, 2025, placing it at Urology APC Level 7. This is a significant step for market adoption because it sets a clear, favorable payment baseline across different settings.

You need to know the specific payment levels to gauge the financial incentive for new adopters:

This Level 7 classification represents an increase of approximately 41% for hospitals and 49% for ASCs over previous proposed rule payments. Furthermore, this payment is 25% higher than the 2025 final rule payment for robotic radical prostatectomy.

To convert the pipeline, the sales team is focused on closing deals that are already deep in the funnel. As of the Q3 2025 announcement, the TULSA-PRO qualified sales pipeline stood at 93 new systems classified within the "Verify, Negotiate and Contracting" stages. Closing these deals directly feeds the recurring revenue engine. That engine generated $4.1 million in recurring-non-capital-revenue in Q3 2025, which is comprised of consumables, leases, and warranties. Total revenue for the quarter was $5.3 million, meaning recurring revenue accounted for approximately 77.4% ($4.1M / $5.3M) of the total.

Finally, streamlining workflow is being addressed through strategic alliances. In September 2025, Profound Medical Corp. announced the launch of a first-of-its-kind TULSA-PROgram in partnership with Texas Prostate and Dallas Medical Center. This model is specifically designed to bridge private-pay practices and Medicare-participating hospitals, helping to remove friction points for patient access and physician scheduling.

Execute the exclusive distribution deal in Saudi Arabia for TULSA-PRO and Sonalleve.

Profound Medical Corp. entered into an exclusive distribution and supply agreement for TULSA-PRO and Sonalleve technologies in Saudi Arabia with Al Faisaliah Medical Systems Co. (FMS), a subsidiary of Al Faisaliah Group (AFG), announced on November 11, 2025. All required regulatory approvals to import and sell both ablative technologies in Saudi Arabia are already in place.

Expand the TULSA-PRO installed base to meet the goal of at least 75 systems by year-end 2025.

Profound Medical Corp. aims to have at least 75 TULSA-PRO units installed by the end of 2025. As of the last report in October 2025, the TULSA-PRO installed base was 67 systems.

Accelerate commercialization in new international markets like Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

The company regained exclusive distribution rights for TULSA-PRO in Canada from Knight Therapeutics Inc. in November 2025. The prior exclusive distribution rights agreement with Knight began in April 2015.

On November 12, 2025, Profound Medical Corp. announced an exclusive distribution and supply agreement for the TULSA-PRO system with Getz Healthcare in Australia and New Zealand.

Leverage the China National Medical Products Administration approval for Sonalleve in uterine fibroids.

Sonalleve received approval from the China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA, formerly CFDA) for the non-invasive treatment of uterine fibroids. This NMPA approval was announced on May 9, 2018.

Target new US hospital networks, definitely focusing on high-volume prostate cancer centers.

Medicare coverage for the TULSA Procedure became effective in January 2025 across Hospital Outpatient, Ambulatory Surgical Center, and Private Office/Non-Facility settings.

The final rule established the TULSA CPT 55882 code as a Level 7 Urology Ambulatory Payment Classification (APC) for 2025.

The Medicare National Average payment for CPT 55882 is $12,992 for hospitals.

The facility payment for ASCs for CPT 55882 is $10,728 (Medicare National Average).

The TULSA+ program involves co-marketing the TULSA-PRO system with the Siemens Healthineers Magnetom Free.Max MRI scanner.

The company estimates the addressable market in the US is 200,000 prostate cancer cases and 400,000 BPH cases annually.

The TULSA-PRO qualified sales pipeline stood at 80 new systems in the 'Verify, Negotiate and Contracting' stages as of Q2 2025.

The pipeline included nearly 500 TULSA-PRO prospects, over 100 engaged leads, and 80 qualified leads as of August 2025.

The following table summarizes key operational and market data points:

The TULSA Procedure utilization saw "same store" procedure volumes up 10% sequentially from Q1-2025 in Q2 2025.

For prostate cancer patients treated by TULSA-PRO customers in Q2 2025:

• Treated for prostate cancer only: 79%
• Hybrid (Cancer and BPH): 17%
• Salvage: 3%
• BPH only: 1%

For cancer grade distribution in Q2 2025:

• GG1: 4%
• GG2: 53%
• GG3: 28%
• GG4 & GG5: 15%

For ablation type by intention-to-treat in Q2 2025:

• Whole gland: 48%
• Sub-total (more than half the gland): 26%
• Hemi-ablations or focal therapy: 26%

Profound Medical Corp. (PROF) - Ansoff Matrix: Product Development

You're looking at how Profound Medical Corp. is pushing its existing TULSA-PRO platform into new areas, which is the heart of Product Development in the Ansoff Matrix. This isn't just about selling more of the same; it's about enhancing the core technology to address previously underserved segments or improve existing workflows significantly.

The focus on the BPH-only patient segment is a major strategic move, supported by the launch of the TULSA-AI Volume Reduction module. Profound Medical announced the launch of this module for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment on November 28, 2025. This follows the first commercial BPH treatment utilizing this module in June 2025. The company projects this AI-powered module will triple its total available prostate disease market reach to approximately 600,000 patients annually. This expansion is critical because, prior to this module, BPH-only patient volumes were low due to longer treatment durations compared to other modalities.

The new TULSA-AI module is specifically designed to enhance procedural efficiency. The goal is to decrease total skin-to-skin time to an expected 60-90 minutes for these procedures. The TULSA-PRO system was previously noted for its potential to allow surgeons to consistently treat up to 4 patients a day based on consistent procedure lengths. This new software aims to optimize the workflow, enabling physicians to stack multiple BPH cases in a single day using the existing hardware and reimbursement codes.

Maintaining high profitability while innovating is key, and Profound Medical hit a significant milestone here. The gross margin for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025, was reported at 74.3%. This is a substantial increase, up 1,119 basis points year-over-year from 63.1% in the prior year period. This performance meets the strategic goal of maintaining a gross margin of over 74%, driven by manufacturing efficiency improvements and the growth in recurring revenue from consumables. As of that Q3 2025 report, the TULSA-PRO installed base stood at 70 systems, with expectations to reach at least 75 by the end of the year.

To establish TULSA as a standard-of-care option against radical prostatectomy (RP), the initial perioperative data from the CAPTAIN trial were presented on April 29, 2025, at the American Urological Association Annual Meeting. This Level 1 randomized controlled trial compared TULSA against RP in men with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. The results demonstrated statistically significant improvements across all assessed perioperative measures for TULSA:

The data showed TULSA patients experienced significantly lower post-operative pain (NRS pain) through post-treatment day 6 and maintained significantly higher patient-reported health-related QOL (EQ-5D-5L VAS) for all 30 days measured after treatment. Furthermore, the CAPTAIN trial successfully recruited to target, with 201 patients randomized as of January 2025.

Developing next-generation consumables is tied to the platform's overall economic performance. The recurring revenue component, which includes consumable sales, grew significantly, contributing $4.1 million of the total Q3 2025 revenue of approximately $5.3 million. The improvement in gross margin to 74.3% in Q3 2025 is attributed to better manufacturing efficiency, which speaks directly to the optimization of the consumable supply chain and production process. The company's cash position as of September 30, 2025, was approximately $24.8 million, supporting ongoing R&D investments.

The clinical utilization profile in Q3 2025 shows the platform is being used across the spectrum, though the BPH-only segment is still small:

• Prostate cancer only: 79% of treatments.
• Hybrid (Cancer + BPH): 14% of treatments.
• BPH only: 2.5% of treatments.

Finance: review Q4 2025 cash burn against the $24.8 million on hand as of September 30, 2025, by end of January.

Profound Medical Corp. (PROF) - Ansoff Matrix: Diversification

You're looking at how Profound Medical Corp. (PROF) plans to move beyond its core prostate market with the Sonalleve platform, which is the essence of diversification here. This strategy hinges on leveraging existing, approved technology into new clinical areas.

Initiate clinical trials for Sonalleve's application in non-invasive ablation of abdominal cancers.

Profound Medical confirms it is in the early stages of exploring potential treatment markets for Sonalleve, specifically citing non-invasive ablation of abdominal cancers as an area where the technology has shown clinical application. While the exploration is active, specific financial commitments or trial initiation dates for this area weren't detailed in the Q3 2025 reports. The company's overall financial focus remains on scaling TULSA-PRO, which saw preliminary Q3 2025 revenue hit approximately $5.2 million to $5.3 million, representing growth of between 84% and 87% year-over-year. Still, any success in abdominal cancers would represent a significant new revenue stream outside the prostate.

Secure regulatory clearance for Sonalleve in hyperthermia for cancer therapy, a new modality.

Similar to abdominal cancers, Profound Medical is exploring hyperthermia for cancer therapy as another potential application for Sonalleve. This represents a new modality expansion. The company's current installed base for TULSA-PRO stood at 70 systems as of September 30, 2025, with a qualified sales pipeline of 93 new systems, showing where the immediate capital deployment is focused. Securing a new cancer therapy clearance would be a major step for diversification.

Explore strategic partnerships to apply MRI-guided focused ultrasound (MR-HIFU) technology outside of ablation.

Profound Medical has been active in expanding its distribution footprint, which supports the commercialization of its platforms, including Sonalleve. For instance, Profound Medical entered an exclusive distribution and supply agreement for both TULSA-PRO and Sonalleve in Saudi Arabia with Al Faisaliah Medical Systems Co. Also, a strategic distribution agreement was announced with Getz Healthcare to introduce TULSA-PRO in Australia and New Zealand. Historically, the company acquired Philips' Sonalleve MR-HIFU business in 2017 for a 12% minority interest in Profound Medical, establishing a key foundation for this technology. The current focus appears to be on distribution expansion rather than new MR-HIFU technology application partnerships.

Seek FDA approval for Sonalleve's already CE-marked indications like adenomyosis and desmoid tumors.

The Sonalleve platform already holds a CE mark for several indications beyond prostate disease, which sets the stage for seeking broader US market access. You should know the current regulatory status for these CE-marked uses:

The only confirmed FDA clearance for Sonalleve mentioned recently is the HDE for osteoid osteoma. The company is maintaining its FY 2025 revenue growth guidance at ~70%-75%, largely driven by TULSA-PRO, but expanding Sonalleve indications would diversify that revenue base.

Acquire complementary AI-powered imaging or planning technology to expand the core MR-guided platform.

Profound Medical Corp. is heavily focused on internal AI development rather than external acquisition for its core platform expansion. The company recently received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Contouring Assistant AI module, which enhances automated treatment plan creation for TULSA-PRO. Urologists using this AI module demonstrated a 32% improvement in contouring speed in clinical studies. Furthermore, the company is working on the TULSA-AI Volume Reduction module, expected to fully launch in Q4-2025. The company had cash on hand of approximately $24.8 million as at September 30, 2025, which could fund an acquisition, but current public reporting emphasizes internal AI rollout.

The TULSA-PRO installed base is 70 systems, and the company is aiming for at least 75 installs by year-end 2025. That's where the near-term action is.
