Stéphane Piat, CEO of CARMAT, comments: “The fundraising that we are launching today will strengthen our financial structure and allow us to calmly ensure the resumption of the implantations of our Aeson® artificial heart from October 2022. The dialogue that we are conducting with the competent authorities and the notified body DEKRA, as well as the recent resumption of our production, following the integration of changes that have allowed us to reinforce the robustness of various components, make us indeed confident in our ability to resume our clinical trials and our sales as planned, and thus meet the high expectations of doctors and patients. The support of our historic shareholders is particularly important at this crucial time for the company and I would particularly like to highlight their very strong commitment. I am also happy that we can offer other investors, as well as individuals – via the PrimaryBid platform – the opportunity to contribute to the development of our Company, and of a unique technology which we believe more than ever has the potential to radically and lastingly change the management of patients with end-stage biventricular heart failure. »
