Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On July 13, 2026, Tactile Systems Technology, Inc. (“we,” “us,” and “our”) issued a press release announcing a distribution agreement. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

 

In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in that filing.

 

Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

On July 13, 2026, we announced that we have entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with ElastiMed, Inc. to bring MyoSleeve™, its discreet, wearable non-pneumatic compression device for the lower leg, to Department of Veterans Affairs (“VA”) and Department of Defense (“DoD”) patients across the United States. MyoSleeve expands our established market-leading portfolio by providing a new treatment option for appropriately selected patients in earlier stages of chronic swelling who may not yet require more intensive compression therapy. MyoSleeve may also be appropriate as a complementary treatment to a traditional pneumatic compression device and for patients who struggle with conservative therapy, or those with mobility-limiting cases.

 

Wrapped around the calf with the ability to be worn beneath clothing, MyoSleeve uses electroactive polymer technology to deliver dynamic compression through flexible bands that contract in sequence. The battery-powered device is designed as an all-in-one therapy option, operating without tubing, cords, or an external controller, and quietly delivers intermittent therapy while patients go about daily activities. MyoSleeve has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance and is indicated for the treatment of chronic swelling, including chronic edema, lymphedema, and venous insufficiency.

 

Under the agreement, we hold exclusive U.S. distribution rights for MyoSleeve within the VA and DoD systems. In connection with these exclusive distribution rights, we made an upfront payment of $3 million to ElastiMed. We also committed to certain minimum purchase obligations and marketing and sales promotion as we support ElastiMed’s growth. We expect to leverage our established sales organization, billing and payment expertise, and patient support infrastructure to drive MyoSleeve commercialization and support ongoing market access initiatives. MyoSleeve is available by prescription, and appropriate patient selection is determined by the treating clinician.
