Regional and Operational Highlights
In the United States, sales growth was driven by robust probe sales, which increased 33% at constant exchange rates, and services, which rose 17%. The company noted strengthening pricing power, with average probe discounting falling from 23% in 2024 to 13% in 2026. While Q2 2026 U.S. sales declined 8% due to the phasing of system sales, the company expects a significant increase in the second half driven by pancreatic-cyst momentum and upgrade cycles.
EMEA and ROW sales grew significantly, up 261% in H1, driven by strong momentum in the CellTolerance application for food intolerances. The company successfully expanded into new territories, including the UAE, Switzerland, Australia, and Spain, and obtained regulatory approvals in the Middle East, Switzerland, and the UK.
Financial Position and Outlook
The company strengthened its financial flexibility in July 2026 with a €4 million optional shareholder loan facility from Vester Finance. This facility, drawable over 24 months, extends financial visibility beyond 2027. Combined with a €27 million debt reduction achieved through the 2025 restructuring, the company operates with an optimized cost structure.
Mauna Kea expects growth to continue in the second half of 2026, supported by increased U.S. system sales, acceleration in U.S. usage volumes, and the continued ramp-up of CellTolerance. The company confirmed its trajectory toward profitability by year-end 2027 and operational self-financing thereafter.
