Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks CARLSMED, INC. names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 25, 2026: 74 risks under these headings, as written.7

  • We depend entirely on sales of aprevo interbody implants for our revenue. If we are unable to successfully achieve substantial market acceptance and adoption of the aprevo Technology Platform, or any of our future products, or if confidence in our products is diminished, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects would be harmed.
  • We have a limited operating history and have experienced periods of significant business changes in a short time, making it difficult for you to evaluate our business and future prospects. If we are unable to manage our business and any fluctuations in our business effectively, our business and growth prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
  • We have a history of net losses, and we expect to incur additional substantial losses in the foreseeable future.
  • Our business and growth strategy depend in part on our ability to broadly commercialize the aprevo Technology Platform for cervical spine fusion surgeries. If we are unable to do so, our future growth could be limited and our business could be harmed.
  • Managing our on-demand, customized implant model to address evolving patterns of demand is expensive, time-consuming, and subject to significant uncertainties. If we are unable to manage our CMOs to consistently meet demand on a timely basis, customers and surgeons may choose to use our competitors’ products.
  • We rely on a limited number of CMOs for the manufacture, treatment, sterilization, packaging, and distribution of our products. This reliance on third parties increases the risk that we will not have sufficient quantities of our products or such quantities at an acceptable cost, and reduces our control over the manufacturing process, which could delay, prevent, or impair our development or commercialization efforts, as well as our ability to timely deliver our aprevo interbody implants.
  • If the third parties on which we rely to assist us with premarket development activities for future products do not perform as contractually required or expected, we may not obtain regulatory clearance or approval for our future products or be able to successfully commercialize our future products.
  • We operate in a highly competitive industry, and competitive pressures or any new developments by competitors could make the aprevo Technology Platform non-competitive or obsolete and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • If we are unable to meet customer demands for new technology, or if the technologies we introduce are viewed less favorably than our competitors’ products, our results of operations and future prospects may be negatively affected.
  • Our business and growth strategy depend on our ability to maintain and expand our aprevo Personalized Spine Provider program. If we are unable to do so, our future growth would be limited, and our business would be harmed.
  • Any future sales in international markets will subject us to additional costs and risks that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • If we fail to attract and retain senior management and other key personnel, our business may be materially and adversely affected.
The other 62 risks
  • We rely on our independent sales agents to generate revenue, which subjects us to various risks.
  • If we are unable to successfully develop new products and effectively manage their introduction or improve our existing products, our business may be adversely affected.
  • We spend significant amounts on marketing and brand-building initiatives to acquire and retain customers, which may not be successful or cost effective.
  • We may be subject to product and other liability claims that could require us to pay substantial sums.
  • The off-label use of aprevo interbody implants may harm our reputation in the marketplace or result in injuries that lead to fines or sanctions by regulatory bodies if we are deemed to have engaged in the promotion of these uses, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
  • A recall of our products, either voluntarily or at the direction of the FDA or another governmental authority, or the discovery of serious safety issues with our products, could have a significant adverse impact on us.
  • Any of our products and technologies may have unforeseen adverse events or undesirable side effects, which may require our products to be taken off the market, require our products to include safety warnings, or otherwise limit sales of our products.
  • The size and expected growth of our total addressable market has not been established with precision and may be smaller than we estimate.
  • Discovery of alternative technologies or other personalized spinal implant technologies could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • Our quarterly and annual results may fluctuate significantly and may not fully reflect the underlying performance of our business.
  • Macroeconomic conditions could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • Cybersecurity risks could materially affect our business, operations, or financial condition.
  • Risk Related to Regulatory Matters
  • The continued commercialization of the aprevo Technology Platform depends in part on the extent to which third-party payors provide coverage and adequate reimbursement levels. Failure to obtain and maintain coverage and adequate reimbursement for aprevo interbody implants could limit our ability to market them and decrease our ability to generate revenue.
  • We are subject to certain federal and state fraud and abuse laws and transparency laws, and any failure to comply could subject us to substantial penalties or other adverse consequences. In addition, any challenge to or investigation into our practices under these laws could cause adverse publicity and be costly to respond to, and thus could harm our business.
  • Our employees, independent sales agents, consultants, and other commercial partners may engage in misconduct or other improper activities, including non-compliance with regulatory standards and requirements.
  • We may be subject to damages resulting from claims that we or our employees or our independent sales agents have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged trade secrets or proprietary or confidential information of our competitors or are in breach of non-competition or non-solicitation agreements with our competitors.
  • Healthcare policy changes, including recently enacted legislation reforming the U.S. healthcare system, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • Our products and operations are subject to extensive government regulation and oversight in the United States, and our failure to comply with applicable requirements could harm our business.
  • Failure to maintain marketing authorizations for our products, or to timely obtain necessary marketing authorizations for our future products, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • Interim, “top-line,” or preliminary data from clinical studies or trials that we announce or publish from time to time may change as more patient data become available and are subject to audit and verification procedures that could result in material changes in the final data.
  • We are subject to ongoing regulatory review and scrutiny. Failure to comply with post-marketing regulatory requirements could subject us to enforcement actions, including substantial penalties, and might require us to recall or withdraw a product from the market.
  • Our products must be manufactured in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and we could be forced to recall our devices or terminate production if we fail to comply with these regulations.
  • aprevo interbody implants may cause or contribute to adverse medical events that we may be required to report to the FDA, and if we fail to do so, we would be subject to sanctions that could harm our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects. In addition, the discovery of serious safety issues with aprevo interbody implants, or a recall of them either voluntarily or at the direction of the FDA, could have a negative impact on us.
  • Legislative or regulatory reforms in the United States may make it more difficult and costly for us to manufacture, market, or distribute our products, or to obtain marketing authorizations for any future products.
  • Disruptions at the FDA and other government agencies caused by funding shortages, staffing limitations, or global health concerns could hinder their ability to hire, retain, or deploy key leadership and other personnel and prevent new or modified products from being developed, reviewed, approved, or commercialized in a timely manner, or at all, which could negatively impact our business.
  • We face risks related to obtaining necessary foreign marketing authorizations.
  • Failure to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), economic and trade sanctions regulations, and similar laws could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.
  • Data Privacy Risk Factors
  • Actual or perceived failures to comply with applicable data privacy and security laws, regulations, standards, and other requirements could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
  • We may face risks associated with our use and development of AI models.
  • Our business and operations may suffer in the event of information technology system failures, cyberattacks, or deficiencies in our cybersecurity.
  • Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property
  • Our success will depend on our ability to obtain, maintain, enforce, and protect our intellectual property rights.
  • If we fail to identify our patentable inventions or adequately protect our patent rights, the commercial value of our products, services, or technologies may be adversely affected, and our competitive position may be harmed.
  • Obtaining and maintaining patent protection depends on compliance with various procedural, document submission, fee payment, and other requirements imposed by governmental patent agencies, and our patent protection could be reduced or eliminated for non-compliance with these requirements.
  • Changes in U.S. or foreign patent laws or their interpretations could diminish the value of our patents in general, thereby impairing our ability to protect our current and future products, services, or technologies, and could increase the uncertainties and costs surrounding the prosecution of our patent applications and the enforcement or defense of our current or future patents.
  • We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights throughout the world.
  • If we cannot successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, the commercial value of our products, services, or technologies may be adversely affected, and our competitive position may be harmed.
  • We may become a party to intellectual property litigation or administrative proceedings that could be expensive, time consuming, and unsuccessful, and could interfere with our ability to develop, manufacture, commercialize, import, or otherwise use our products, services, or technologies.
  • We may be subject to claims challenging the inventorship or ownership of our patents and other intellectual property rights.
  • We depend on certain intellectual property rights that are licensed to us. We may be unsuccessful in licensing or acquiring intellectual property rights from third parties that may be necessary to develop, manufacture, commercialize, import, or use our current and/or future products, services, or technologies.
  • If we are unable to protect the disclosure and use of our confidential information and trade secrets, the value of our products, services, and technologies and our business and competitive position could be harmed.
  • If our trademarks and trade names are not adequately protected, we may not be able to build brand name recognition in our markets of interest, and our competitive position may be harmed.
  • Our products contain third-party open-source software components, and failure to comply with the terms of the underlying open-source software licenses could restrict our ability to sell our products, affect our ability to protect our proprietary information, and subject us to possible litigation.
  • Risks Relating to Financial and Accounting Matters
  • Our ability to use our net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited due to certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or state tax law.
  • Our effective tax rate may vary significantly from period to period.
  • Changes in tax laws or tax rulings could adversely affect our effective tax rates, results of operations, and financial condition.
  • Our tax burden could increase as a result of ongoing or future tax audits.
  • The terms of the Customers Loan Agreement require us to meet certain operating and financial covenants and place restrictions on our operating and financial flexibility.
  • Our cash deposits with financial institutions exceed insured limits.
  • Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock
  • We are an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company, and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
  • We incur increased costs and are subject to additional regulations and requirements as a result of becoming a public company, which could lower our profits or make it more difficult to run our business.
  • If we are unable to design, implement, and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in the future, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, and the market price of our common stock may decline.
  • We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the market price of our common stock.
  • If our operating and financial performance in any given period does not meet the guidance provided to the public or to the expectations of investment analysts, the market price of our common stock may decline.
  • Future sales and issuances of our securities, including to support business growth or pursuant to our equity incentive plans, may cause dilution to our stockholders or decrease our stock price.
  • Our principal stockholders and management own a significant percentage of our stock and will be able to exert significant control over matters subject to stockholder approval.
  • Provisions in our charter documents and under Delaware law could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable and may lead to entrenchment of management.
  • Claims for indemnification by our directors, officers, and other employees or agents may reduce our available funds to satisfy successful third-party claims against us and may reduce the amount of money available to us.
  • Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for certain disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees.
  • The market price of our common stock may be volatile, which could cause the value of your investment to decline.
  • If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or if they issue an adverse or misleading opinion regarding our stock, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
  • General Risk Factors
  • If we engage in acquisitions or strategic partnerships, it may increase our capital requirements, dilute our stockholders, cause us to incur debt or assume contingent liabilities, and subject us to other risks.
  • We or the third parties we depend on may be adversely affected by natural disasters and other catastrophic events, and our business continuity and disaster recovery plans may not adequately protect us from a serious natural disaster or other catastrophic event. Any interruption in our operations or the operations of our CMOs may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects.
