+Added: The results of operations
+Added: discussed below reflect those of Legacy Profusa and its consolidated subsidiary for periods prior to July 11, 2025, and those of the
+Added: combined company for periods from July 11, 2025 onward.
+Added: The year ended December 31, 2025 results include Legacy Profusa up to July 11,

+Added: Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
+Added: Annual Report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
+Added: 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
+Added: We have based these forward-looking statements
+Added: on our current expectations and projections about future events.
+Added: These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks,
+Added: uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially
+Added: different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
+Added: In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,”
+Added: “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,”
+Added: “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions.
+Added: Factors that might cause or contribute to such a
+Added: discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.
+Added: are a clinical-stage digital health and medical technology company focused on developing biosensing solutions to improve health outcome
+Added: for patients in a variety of different diseases and conditions.
+Added: Our first product is Lumee Oxygen, which enables physicians to ascertain
+Added: the extent of perfusion, or passage of blood through the circulatory system to an organ or tissue, in patients with Critical Limb Ischemia
+Added: (“CLI”) both during and after endovascular revascularization procedures.
+Added: Lumee Oxygen has already received regulatory approval
+Added: in Europe through the attainment of a CE mark;
+Added: however, prior to commercialization in the U.S., Lumee Oxygen must obtain FDA clearance
+Added: latest version of Lumee Oxygen is called Wireless Lumee Oxygen System.
+Added: It has multiple components, one of which is a microsensor that
+Added: is injected into the tissue of the patient using a hypodermic needle.
+Added: The sensor is designed so it does not need to be removed as it
+Added: overcomes the foreign body response that usually inhibits the ability of permanent implants to function.
+Added: The sensor contains no electronics,
+Added: utilizing luminescence to send a light signal to a reader that is placed over the incision site, which in turn can send a signal to an
+Added: app on a smartphone.
+Added: We are in clinical trials for Lumee Glucose, our sensing solution being developed for use in continuous glucose
+Added: monitoring (CGM).
+Added: This system targets diabetics and pre-diabetics to allow them realtime access to their glucose data, at a price point
+Added: that our management thinks is comparable or lower to existing systems.
+Added: 2024, we sold our oxygen sensor for research use only applications, namely animal models and in vitro testing.
+Added: Management is targeting
+Added: the European market (those jurisdictions that accept CE mark) for early launch for both Lumee Oxygen and Lumee Glucose.
+Added: Lumee Oxygen’s
+Added: launch in Europe occurred in 2023 and Lumee Glucose launch is expected to occur in 2026, subject to regulatory approval.
+Added: We have access
+Added: to key opinion leaders (“KOLs”) in both Europe and the United States, who deal with peripheral arterial disease (“PAD”)
+Added: and Critical Limb Ischemia (“CLI”).
+Added: will sell directly to facilities based on the endorsement of these KOLs.
+Added: In Germany, Austria and France, some KOLs have already used
+Added: Lumee Oxygen on a trial basis.
+Added: We have worked with reimbursement consultants to develop potential Category I Current Procedural Terminology
+Added: (“CPT”) codes for Lumee Oxygen use.
+Added: Additionally, we have entered into commercial and clinical collaboration agreements with
+Added: practitioners and hospital departments in Austria, Belgium and France.
+Added: Lumee Glucose, if and when we obtained marketing authorization, we plan to embark on a dual strategy of both direct to hospital sales,
+Added: for our professional-use and personal-use CGM product, and direct to pharmacy sales for our personal use product only, thereby maximizing
+Added: flexibility for the consumer.
+Added: By aiming for coverage under a user’s pharmacy benefit, we believe we can diversify our user base,
+Added: while accounting for any risk related to unlikely delay of attainment of a category I CPT code for sensor insertion.
+Added: We feel a difference
+Added: between other insertable or implantable CGMs and Lumee Glucose, is that the latter can be simply inserted with a hypodermic needle and
+Added: does not require a surgical implantation, similar to how pharmacists use these needles to administer flu shots and other vaccines.
+Added: the same time, physicians can still leverage existing CPT codes related to interpretation of CGM data and we have, in parallel, initiated
+Added: steps for CPT codes related to our sensor insertion.
+Added: We will target both public and private payors for coverage.
+Added: our launch, we have devoted significantly all of our resources to research and development, as well as all clinical study activities
+Added: related but not limited to Lumee Oxygen, Lumee Glucose and prototypes for sensors of at least eight other analytes.
+Added: We have also invested,
+Added: on a smaller scale, in making sales of Lumee Oxygen for research- use only clients, which include entities working with animal models.
+Added: Furthermore, we also performed research and development under government grants.
+Added: inception, we have incurred recurring annual losses from operations.
+Added: For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we incurred a net
+Added: loss of $35.8 million and $9.2 million, respectively.
+Added: During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, we have used $16.2 million and
+Added: $2.1 million, respectively, of cash in our operating activities.
+Added: We have notes and loans payable and interest due of $6.6 million within
+Added: twelve months of December 31, 2025.
+Added: Additionally, we have loans payable and interest due of $7.9 million which are considered non-current
+Added: and are due after December 31, 2026.
+Added: have been able to finance our operations primarily with the proceeds from the issuance of equity and debt instruments.
+Added: For the year ended
+Added: December 31, 2025, we obtained net cash from financing activities of $19.8 million, compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2024.
+Added: We held cash of $1.8 million and $0.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
+Added: consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
+Added: of liabilities in the normal course of business.
+Added: We have reviewed the relevant conditions and events surrounding its ability to continue
+Added: as a going concern including among others:
+Added: historical losses, projected future results, including the effects of COVID-19, cash requirements
+Added: for the upcoming year, funding capacity, net working capital, total stockholders’ deficit and future access to capital.
+Added: is our expectation to continue to make substantial investments in building its European and United States commercial infrastructure and
+Added: enhancing existing products and developing new ones.
+Added: Furthermore, we aim to continue discussions with potential partners in Asia.
+Added: expect to incur additional expenses due to operating as a public company, including expenses related to compliance with the rules and
+Added: regulations of the SEC and those of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, additional insurance expenses, investor relations activities and other
+Added: administrative, professional and consulting services.
+Added: As a result of these and other factors, we expect that we will require additional
+Added: financing to fund our operations and planned growth.
+Added: We may seek to raise any additional capital through equity offerings or debt financings,
+Added: additional credit or loan facilities or a combination of one or more of these funding sources.
+Added: In the scenario that we are unable to
+Added: acquire sufficient financing or financing on terms satisfactory to our management or Board of Directors, our ability to continue to pursue
+Added: our business objectives and to respond to business opportunities, challenges or unforeseen circumstances could be significantly limited,
+Added: and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
+Added: For the current period and for
+Added: twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements, our risk of going concern has been mitigated but not fully alleviated
+Added: by Tranches 1 and 2 of the Ascent PIPE Notes issued for gross proceeds of $11.0 million.
+Added: As of and for the year ended December 31,
+Added: 2025, there continue to be factors which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
+Added: for Business Combination
+Added: July 11, 2025, the Business Combination was successfully completed and was accounted for as a reverse capitalization in accordance with
+Added: Legacy Profusa was deemed the accounting predecessor of the combined business, and the Company as the parent company of the
+Added: combined business, is the successor SEC registrant, meaning that our financial statements for previous periods will be disclosed in the
+Added: registrant’s future periodic reports filed with the SEC.
+Added: The Business Combination had a significant impact on our capital structure
+Added: and operating results, and de-risked our product development, manufacturing and commercialization.
+Added: The most significant changes in New
+Added: Profusa’s future reported financial positions were approximately $11.0 million in proceeds from the PIPE Investment.
+Added: million is offset by various deferred offering costs and $2.0 million closing fees related to the underwriters marketing fee for the
+Added: IPO, which became payable upon the consummation of the Business Combination.
+Added: a result of the Business Combination, the Company has become the successor to an SEC-registered and Nasdaq-listed company, we have hired
+Added: additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company regulatory requirements and customary practices.
+Added: We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability
+Added: insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal and administrative resources.
+Added: Monetary Response, and Economic Impacts
+Added: world economy is experiencing stubbornly high inflation, a challenge not faced for decades.
+Added: Following the global financial crisis, with
+Added: inflationary pressures muted, interest rates were extremely low for years and investors became accustomed to low volatility.
+Added: The resulting
+Added: easing of financial conditions supported economic growth, but it also contributed to a buildup of financial vulnerabilities.
+Added: With inflation
+Added: at multi-decade highs, monetary authorities in advanced economies are accelerating the pace of policy normalization.
+Added: Policymakers have
+Added: continued to tighten policy against a backdrop of rising inflation and currency pressures, albeit with notable differences across regions.
+Added: Global financial conditions have tightened notably this year, leading to capital outflows.
+Added: Amid heightened economic and geopolitical
+Added: uncertainties, investors have aggressively pulled back from risk-taking and adjusted their investment preferences generally.
+Added: of systemic risk, such as higher dollar funding costs and counterparty credit spreads, have risen.
+Added: There is a risk of a disorderly tightening
+Added: of financial conditions that may be amplified by vulnerabilities built over the years.
+Added: addition, our business, growth, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by instability or
+Added: changes in a country’s or region’s economic conditions;
+Added: changes in laws or regulations or in the interpretation
+Added: of existing laws or regulations, whether caused by a change in government or otherwise;
+Added: increased difficulty of conducting business in
+Added: a country or region due to actual or potential political or military conflict;
+Added: or action by the U.S.

−Removed: Critical Accounting Estimates
−Removed: Certain of our accounting policies require that
−Removed: management apply significant judgments in defining the appropriate assumptions integral to financial estimates.
−Removed: On an ongoing basis, management
−Removed: reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented
−Removed: fairly and in accordance with U.S.
−Removed: Judgments are based on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, industry trends and
−Removed: information available from outside sources, as appropriate.
−Removed: Some of the more significant estimates are in connection with determining
−Removed: the fair value of the warrant liabilities and convertible promissory note.
−Removed: However, by their nature, judgments are subject to an inherent
−Removed: degree of uncertainty, and, therefore, actual results could differ from our estimates.
−Removed: Promissory Note
−Removed: fair value of the Company’s convertible promissory note is valued using a compound option formula on the convertible feature and
−Removed: a present value of the host contract.
−Removed: The valuation technique requires inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall
−Removed: fair value measurement.
−Removed: These inputs reflect management’s own assumption about the assumptions a market participant would use in
−Removed: pricing the working capital loan.
−Removed: account for the warrants issued in connection with the IPO in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40.
−Removed: Such guidance provides
−Removed: that because the warrants do not meet the criteria for equity treatment thereunder, each warrant must be recorded as a liability.
−Removed: we classified each warrant as a liability at its fair value.
−Removed: This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date.
−Removed: With each such re-measurement, the warrant liabilities will be adjusted to fair value, with the change in fair value recognized in our
−Removed: consolidated statements of operations.
−Removed: determining the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants and the Representative’s Warrants assumptions related to expected
−Removed: share-price volatility, expected life and risk-free interest rate are utilized.
−Removed: The Company estimates the volatility of its common stock
−Removed: based on historical volatility that matches the expected remaining life of the warrants.

+Added: have been prepared in accordance with U.S.
+Added: The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates
+Added: and assumptions for the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and related disclosures.
+Added: Our estimates are based on
+Added: our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form
+Added: the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
+Added: results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material.
+Added: consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:
+Added: (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were
+Added: highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made, and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from

+Added: estimate that rises to the level of a critical accounting estimate.
+Added: Ascent PIPE Notes is carried at fair value based on unobservable market inputs.
+Added: The fair value of financial instrument is determined
+Added: using the Monte Carlo simulation model.
+Added: Where observable market prices are not available, we use models that incorporate assumptions
+Added: about credit risk, interest rates, and market volatility.
+Added: These estimates require significant judgment, particularly for instruments
+Added: classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
+Added: Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the reported fair values and
+Added: related income or expense.
+Added: We regularly review and update our valuation to reflect current market conditions and ensure consistency with
accounting standards.

−Removed: This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years
−Removed: beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted.
−Removed: The Company adopted ASU 2023-07, which was applied retrospectively
−Removed: to all prior periods presented.
−Removed: See Note 10 for further details regarding this adoption.
−Removed: Standards not yet Adopted
−Removed: December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No.
−Removed: 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740):
−Removed: Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”),

−Removed: as an “emerging growth company” under the JOBS Act and are allowed to comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements
−Removed: based on the effective date for private (not publicly traded) companies.
−Removed: We are electing to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting
−Removed: standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such

+Added: and is material to our consolidated financial statements.
+Added: The Ascent PIPE Notes was valued at $7.9 million as of December 31, 2025.
+Added: In addition, we consider this estimate critical due to its complexity, subjectivity, and material impact on reported results.
+Added: we have one critical accounting estimate to report, and have included our considerations below.
+Added: have elected to account for our Ascent PIPE Notes at fair value under ASC 825, “Financial Instruments.” The PIPE Subscription
+Added: Agreement is classified as a Level 3 financial instrument due to the absence of observable market inputs and the significant use of management
+Added: judgment in determining fair value.
+Added: fair value is estimated using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model that incorporates multiple simulated settlement scenarios,
+Added: including conversion, repayment, and extension.
+Added: Key inputs include the discount rate, expected term, volatility, and conversion likelihood.
+Added: When the PIPE Subscription Agreement was executed between Northview and the PIPE investors, the loan was with a related party, as such
+Added: observable market data is limited, and management applies significant judgment in assessing the economic substance of the arrangement.
+Added: the year ended December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the Ascent PIPE Notes increased by $3.3 million.
+Added: Changes in fair value
+Added: are recognized in earnings each period.
+Added: We consider this estimate critical due to its complexity, subjectivity, and material impact on
+Added: reported results.
+Added: policies are reviewed quarterly, and inputs are updated based on evolving market conditions and contractual developments.
+Added: the discount rate of +100 basis points would result in a fair value change of approximately $13 thousand or (0.2)%, while a 10% change
+Added: in volatility would impact fair value by approximately $8 thousand or 0.1%.
