IceCure CEO Issues Letter to Shareholders: Reports Record Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 ProSense® Sales
Company experiencing strong demand in the U.S. following FDA marketing authorization of ProSense® as the only on-label minimally invasive solution for the local treatment of low-risk breast cancer, addressing a market opportunity of approximately 200,000 patients
Record European sales, driven by positive effects of U.S. clearance and continued growing adoption of ProSense® cryoablation for breast cancer in key markets
Record number of peer-reviewed publications and presentations at global conferences demonstrates growing clinical evidence for cryoablation of breast, musculoskeletal, and kidney cancers with ProSense®
CAESAREA, Israel, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IceCure Medical Ltd. (NASDAQ:ICCM) ("IceCure", "IceCure Medical" or the "Company"), developer of minimally-invasive cryoablation technology that destroys tumors by freezing as an option to surgical tumor removal, today issued the following letter to shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Eyal Shamir.
Dear shareholders,
2025 was a pivotal year for IceCure – we were granted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's ("FDA") marketing authorization for ProSense® cryoablation for the local treatment of low-risk breast cancer with endocrine therapy in women aged 70 and above, including those who are not candidates for breast cancer surgery. This achievement has strengthened our belief that ProSense® can expand patient choice, enhance care, and offer improved healthcare economics through a minimally invasive approach. This milestone marks a meaningful step toward establishing cryoablation as a new standard of care for eligible women in the United States seeking effective care without surgical removal of breast tissue.
Following the FDA marketing authorization in October 2025, we have experienced and continue to experience an overwhelmingly positive response and interest in ProSense® consoles and disposable cryoprobes. This has contributed to record fourth quarter results in 2025 in North America. We are particularly enthused to see systems being placed at highly regarded institutions in the United States, which we believe can further accelerate broader adoption of ProSense®. Our sales team is engaged with leading hospitals, clinics, breast surgeons, and interventional radiologists currently evaluating ProSense® in the U.S.
Based on preliminary, unaudited estimates, IceCure delivered a record ProSense® sales of approximately $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, driven by growing demand in the U.S. and record sales in Europe as we continue to execute our global commercial strategy. Our cash and cash equivalents balance as of December 31, 2025 was approximately $8.9 million. This preliminary financial information has been prepared solely on the basis of information that is currently available to, and that is the responsibility of, management. This preliminary financial information is based upon our estimates and remains subject to, among other things, the completion of IceCure's financial closing procedures and final adjustments, which may impact the results and expectations set forth above.
We also saw continued advancement in the large body of data supporting ProSense® for other indications. In 2025, independent investigators produced a record number of peer-reviewed publications and presentations regarding the use of ProSense® for breast, musculoskeletal, and kidney cancers. We believe this expanding body of evidence is critical to long-term adoption and to supporting expanded clinical use around the world.
2025 Key Achievements
FDA Marketing Authorization for Low-Risk Breast Cancer in Women Aged 70 and Above: The FDA granted marketing authorization for ProSense® for the local treatment of low-risk breast cancer in women aged 70 and above with endocrine therapy, establishing ProSense® as the first and only medical device to receive FDA marketing authorization for the local treatment of breast cancer.
Significant Addressable U.S. Patient Population: ProSense® addresses a U.S. patient population for breast cryoablation of approximately 200,000 women annually. This population includes approximately 46,400 early-stage, low-risk breast cancer patients aged 70 and over, 88,500 patients who are not candidates for breast cancer surgery, and 63,000 patients with fibroadenomas who opt for excision.
Commercial Expansion Across North America: ProSense® systems were sold and installed at new locations across North America, including at one of the most highly regarded medical institutions in the United States, reflecting strong clinical interest following the FDA marketing authorization.
Record Scientific Visibility and Independent Validation: IceCure achieved a record number of peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations by 16 principal investigators at 10 conferences across the globe including the U.S., Europe, and Asia, covering indications including breast, musculoskeletal and kidney cancer. These independent third-party studies continue to demonstrate ProSense® efficacy and safety in breast cancer and its potential for other indications.
Clinical Validation in Lung Cancer and Endometriosis: While a large body of evidence in ProSense®'s treatment of breast cancer continues to accumulate, independent studies demonstrated that IceCure's cryoablation system, combined with radiation therapy, successfully treated non-small cell lung cancer ("NSCLC"), demonstrating 92% disease-specific 5-year survival. Additional independent studies also demonstrated that ProSense® substantially reduced abdominal wall endometriosis pain with high procedural efficacy.
Regulatory Achievements: ProSense® received regulatory approval in Switzerland for indications including breast, lung, liver, and kidney cancer, while the next-generation XSense™ received regulatory approval in Israel.
Intellectual Property Estate Continued to Grow: IceCure was granted and allowed four new patents in the U.S. and China covering our latest innovations, including next-generation multi-probe cryoablation system, cryogenic pump, and cryogenic flow control technology.
2026 Objectives
- We believe the commercial sales momentum in the U.S. and wider utilization in Europe is expected to generate higher ProSense® system and cryoprobe sales in 2026.
- We expect additional reimbursement coverage may potentially become available for ProSense® procedures in 2026 and beyond based on factors including the FDA's marketing authorization in low-risk breast cancer, post-market activity, and recommendations from professional medical associations. ProSense® currently has reimbursement under the CPT III code which increased to $4,049 effective January 2026.
- Terumo, our distributor in Japan, is expected to submit a request for breast cancer clearance to Japan's Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency in the first half of 2026.
- More peer-reviewed publications are expected from ongoing independent studies of ProSense® worldwide.
- We expect continued progress toward regulatory approvals for ProSense® in additional global markets.
- We continue to explore opportunities for strategic cooperation and partnership, supported by recent clinical, regulatory, and commercial progress.
We wish you all a peaceful, healthy, and prosperous 2026.
Sincerely,
Eyal Shamir, CEO
