Inspira Technologies CEO Issues Letter to Shareholders on Strategic Direction and Value Creation PlanRA'ANANA, Israel, May 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN, IINNW) ("Inspira," "Inspira Technologies," or the "Company"), today issued a letter to its shareholders from its Chief Executive Officer, Dagi Ben-Noon. Dear Valued Shareholders, Our strategy is built around three distinct value tracks: a commercially active AME platform, a focused quantum connectivity program targeting one of the industry’s most important scaling bottlenecks, and a medical business being positioned as a wholly owned subsidiary with meaningful near-term strategic potential. Each track has its own timeline, execution path, and value driver. Together, they form a coordinated framework designed to convert the Company’s assets into measurable business outcomes and long-term shareholder returns. Importantly, our recent commercial activity should not be viewed as an isolated event, but as clear evidence of a broader revenue ramp now developing across the Company. This ramp up is expected to be supported by AME system sales, recurring consumables and service revenues, and continued monetization of our medical technologies. Our objective is to convert this commercial activity into a scalable revenue base that grows consistently quarter over quarter. This revenue ramp will be reflected in the Company’s upcoming financial reports. At the same time, the Company’s management has actively reduced the burn rate of the legacy medical business while reallocating capital toward the AME platform and quantum connectivity program. This is not a passive increase in expenses; it is a deliberate shift in the Company’s cost structure from legacy medical operating expenses toward commercial AME execution, quantum development, customer deployments, and revenue-generating activity. Our execution priorities are clear: accelerate cash collection, expand recurring revenue, improve gross margins, increase capital efficiency, and convert commercial activity into scalable revenue growth. 1. Quantum Computing Connectivity We believe the highest-value application of the AME platform lies in addressing one of quantum computing’s defining hardware bottlenecks: connectivity inside dilution cryostats. Quantum computers are not limited by qubits alone; they are increasingly limited by the wiring required to control and read them. Today, those lines are typically assembled from separate cables, connectors, shields, thermal anchors, and mechanical components, an approach that can support small systems, but does not scale as qubit counts increase. More qubits require more wires, and more wires introduce more heat, noise, space constraints, RF loss, and mechanical complexity into the cryogenic system. This is the connectivity wall. Our approach is not to improve a single cable or connector, but to build a complete monolithic interconnect architecture. This architecture is built as a single engineered structure from the outset, combining the conductor, RF dielectric, shielding, thermal management, and mechanical routing rather than assembling them as separate components. As a result, it removes unnecessary connectors and RF discontinuities, embeds shielding to suppress crosstalk, incorporates thermal traps and anchoring to intercept heat before it reaches the coldest stage, and enables approximately 20 fully shielded conductors per square centimeter. Just as important, it preserves the material purity, continuity, and clean interfaces required for quantum environments. In simple terms, traditional quantum wiring is assembled; our solution is engineered as one monolithic system. Last week we signed a joint development agreement with Qarakal Quantum Ltd., a leading quantum hardware initiative connected to Israel Aerospace Industries and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, to jointly advance and validate our quantum connectivity architecture for cryogenic quantum systems. This collaboration moves our solution from internal development toward system-level validation in a working quantum environment, and we expect to announce additional collaborations with leading quantum ecosystem participants in the coming weeks. The market opportunity is significant. McKinsey projects the quantum computing market could reach up to $72 billion by 2035, according to McKinsey’s 2025 Quantum Technology Monitor1, while the Boston Consulting Group estimates the broader quantum ecosystem could approach $170 billion by 20402. We are positioning the Company to participate in this market through a focused connectivity strategy aimed at one of the sector’s most critical scaling constraints. To align our corporate identity with this strategic direction, shareholders have approved changing the Company’s name to QTREX Quantum Ltd. 2. The AME Platform This level of commercial activity, achieved in such a compressed timeframe, demonstrates not only the strength of the underlying platform but also the depth of demand from leading organizations operating in the most demanding hardware environments in the world. We currently see a robust pipeline of additional engagements developing, including organizations operating at the intersection of advanced computing and quantum infrastructure, and we expect commercial momentum to continue building over the coming quarters. A significant portion of the AME platform’s customer base is concentrated in the aerospace, missile, and defense sectors, and we are experiencing growing interest from additional leading organizations across these markets. This interest is driven by AME’s ability to deliver capabilities that conventional electronics manufacturing does not offer. By combining advanced conductive materials, specialized RF dielectrics, complex 3D geometries, and high-density electronic structures in a single manufacturing platform, AME creates a powerful technology stack for mission-critical environments. This combination of unique materials and integrated manufacturing capabilities makes AME especially suited for customers that require compact, rugged, high-performance electronic systems where size, weight, signal integrity, and reliability are critical. Beyond the immediate commercial opportunity, AME also gives us strategic access to organizations that are active in quantum and next-generation computing. Several current and new AME customers, maintain relevant programs in quantum computing or related advanced computing infrastructure. We are working to expand these commercial relationships into additional units and programs within the same organizations, creating a potential bridge between AME’s current traction and our broader quantum connectivity strategy. 3. Medical Business This monetization effort is supported by several advanced medical assets with regulatory, clinical, and commercial validation. The INSPIRA™ ART100 is FDA-cleared for cardiopulmonary bypass procedures in the U.S. and is in active clinical use at leading U.S. institutions, including top academic medical centers. To date, the ART100 has been used clinically in more than 40 patients and continues to be used actively and routinely. In addition, the HYLA™ platform has recently been validated in a next-generation standalone configuration with high parameter accuracy, targeting the broader heart-lung surgery market. We are preparing to submit the HYLA platform for FDA clearance in the coming months. Beyond the Company’s current clinical and regulatory milestones, the broader critical care environment continues to demonstrate the strategic relevance of advanced oxygenation technologies. Severe infectious disease events, including recent Andes virus, associated hantavirus infections and Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (“HPS”) cases monitored by global health authorities, continue to underscore the importance of ICU readiness, advanced blood oxygenation, and extracorporeal support infrastructure. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention clinical guidance from May 2026 notes that early ECMO initiation in deteriorating HPS patients has been associated with approximately 80% survival. Inspira’s FDA cleared ART100 platform remains a meaningful medical asset within the Company’s broader portfolio. In this context, the Company has notified relevant U.S. public health authorities of its manufacturing readiness for broader critical care preparedness planning. Across all three tracks, disciplined capital allocation remains our operating principle. The termination of our ATM and SEPA facilities in March 2026 reflects our commitment to a cleaner capital structure and a more deliberate financing strategy. With a revenue ramp up now developing, the medical monetization process underway, and burn reduction already implemented, our priority is to preserve capital, extend runway, and convert strategic progress into measurable financial results. Looking ahead, we believe Inspira is at an inflection point. The convergence of an actively scaling AME commercial platform, a quantum connectivity strategy targeting one of the largest emerging hardware markets in technology, and a medical monetization process designed to deliver non-dilutive capital, creates what we believe is a unique combination of near-term commercial visibility and long-term strategic upside. We expect the coming weeks and months to bring continued execution milestones across all three tracks. On behalf of the entire team, thank you for your continued support and confidence. We are committed to executing this strategy with discipline, transparency, urgency, and a clear focus on measurable milestones. Our priority is to translate the Company’s assets, strategic partnerships, and commercial progress into concrete results for our shareholders.
