| ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Hyperfine, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, as applicable, “Hyperfine” or the “Company”), formerly known as HealthCor Catalio Acquisition Corp. (“HealthCor”), was incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on November 18, 2020. The Company’s legal name became Hyperfine, Inc. in connection with the closing (the “Closing”) of the business combination with HealthCor on December 22, 2021 (the “Closing Date”). In connection with the Closing, Hyperfine, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Legacy Hyperfine”), and Liminal Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Liminal”), merged with and into separate wholly owned subsidiaries of HealthCor and became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company (the “Mergers”), and changed their names to Hyperfine Operations, Inc. and Liminal Operations, Inc., respectively. Liminal subsequently changed its name to Liminal Sciences, Inc. The Company is an innovative health technology business with a mission to revolutionize patient care globally through accessible, affordable, clinically relevant artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered portable ultra-low-field (“ULF”) magnetic resonance (“MR”) brain imaging. The Swoop® Portable MR Imaging® System (“Swoop® system”) produces high-quality images at a significantly lower magnetic field strength than conventional magnetic resonance imaging (“MRI”) scanners. The Swoop® system is designed to transform brain MR for the patient, the clinician and the provider, enabling a highly differentiated patient-friendly experience, timely imaging for clinicians, and favorable economics for healthcare administrators. The Swoop® system is a portable, ULF MRI 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. Healthcare professionals can use the Swoop® system efficiently to make effective clinical diagnoses and decisions in various care settings where conventional MRI devices are inaccessible and/or when they are not readily available. The portable design of the Company's Swoop® system makes it safely and readily accessible anywhere in a hospital, clinic, physician’s office, or patient care site and it does not require any special facilities accommodations. The easy to use, iPad-based interface makes its operation easy to learn and it does not require specialized MRI technicians to operate safely. ULF MR does not expose patients to harmful ionizing radiation and compares favorably in this regard to X-ray computed tomography or positron emission tomography. The Company’s Swoop® system received initial 510(k) clearance for brain imaging from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in 2020. In May 2025, the Company received 510(k) clearance from the FDA of its tenth-generation AI-powered software, Optive AI software. The tenth-generation software enhances each stage of image processing from noise cancellation and image acquisition to reconstruction and post processing and produces brain images with greater clarity, uniformity and sharper anatomical detail. Obtaining 510(k) clearance from the FDA in late May 2025 for its new next-generation Swoop® scanner powered by Optive AITM software was a very important milestone for the Company. The next-generation Swoop® system incorporates learnings from five years of real-world experience, features new hardware and is powered by Optive AITM software. The next-generation Swoop® system incorporates innovations specifically engineered to deliver the highest signal-to-noise ratio, which, when paired with the Optive AI software, achieves exceptional image quality at low-field MRI, including improved resolution and uniformity, as well as faster acquisition times. In December 2025, the Company received FDA clearance for the eleventh-generation AI-powered software. The eleventh-generation software includes a new multi-direction DWI sequence to its Optive AITM software, and this software enhancement expands the Swoop® system’s clinical capabilities by improving image quality and diagnostic confidence for stroke detection, including clearer visualization of smaller lesions and more reliable differentiation of infarcts. The multi-direction DWI sequence uses multi-direction signal acquisition, similar to techniques used in high-field MRI, and is designed to reduce artifacts that may obscure stroke pathology, while the existing single-direction DWI sequence remains available for extremely time-sensitive imaging where rapid acquisition is critical to meeting stroke treatment protocols. Outside of the United States, the first-generation Swoop® system has received marketing authorization for brain imaging in several countries, including the European Union (“CE Mark”), the United Kingdom (UK Conformity Assessment (“UKCA Mark”)), Canada, Australia, New Zealand and India. In October 2024 and February 2025, the Company received CE Mark and UKCA Mark approval for the ninth-generation of software, respectively. In August 2025, the Company received both CE Mark and UKCA Mark approvals for the Optive AITM software. In March 2026, the Company achieved an important milestone and received both CE Mark and UKCA Mark approval for both the next-generation Swoop® scanner and the latest advancement in its Optive AI software. In December 2025, the Company received regulatory approval in India from the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization, authorizing commercialization of the first-generation Swoop® system throughout India. The Company's Optive AITM software is currently available in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and India markets. All of the Company’s revenue to date has been generated from sales of the Swoop® system and related services. The Company has an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary in the United Kingdom that did not have any significant operations during the three months ended March 31, 2026. |
