Echo IQ Limited Completes its Clinical Validation for its Heart Failure Clinical Decision Support Software in Collaboration with the Mayo Clinic Platform Echo IQ Limited announced that it has completed its clinical validation for its heart failure clinical decision support software ("EchoSolv HF") in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic Platform ("MCP"), a division of the Mayo Clinic, a top ranked US hospital. The MCP Validate program is a unique in-market AI evaluation program which generates an independent and objective report on accuracy, efficacy and susceptibility to bias for AI-based decision software. The clinical validation was designed to evaluate the EchoSolv HF model's ability to detect heart failure on an independent dataset of ~17,000 individual echocardiogram studies. In a major milestone, the primary endpoint of the clinical validation has been met, with results exceeding expectations. The study results show that EchoSolv HF demonstrated outstanding performance in identifying patients with heart failure, achieving a sensitivity of 99.5%. Likewise, the model was accurate in identifying patient that did not have heart failure, achieving a specificity of 91.0%. Completion of the clinical validation marks the final clinical requirement prior to a formal submission for clearance by the US Food & Drug Administration ("FDA"). Echo IQ is now in the process of completing its formal submission to advance the clearance of EchoSolv HF via the FDA's 510(k) regulatory pathway. The Company expects to lodge this submission in the coming weeks. FDA clearance of the solution would allow for EchoSolv HF to be marketed to and used by healthcare professionals in the USA as a clinical decision support software to aid in the detection of heart failure. Heart failure is the leading cause for rehospitalisation in the US and accounts for 17% of all healthcare expenditure in the country. It is now estimated that one in four Americans will develop heart failure in their lifetime. Upon potential FDA clearance of the solution, the Company intends to leverage its existing footprint in the US market to drive uptake of EchoSolv HF. Breakeven Date Change • Nov 25

Echo Iq Highlights Market Potential for Echosolv as Following Presentation of New Data for Severe Aortic Stenosis (As) Presented At Aha Scientific Sessions 2025 Echo IQ announced that overwhelmingly convincing data from two recent studies have highlighted the significant gaps in the current standard-of-care for diagnosing and monitoring severe aortic stenosis (AS), and potential for EchoSolv AS to drive improved patient outcomes. The results from both studies were presented separately at the American Heart Association (AHA) Scientific Sessions 2025, which was held in New Orleans, Louisiana. A key takeaway from the study that reviewed echocardiograms for more than 1.2 million patients is that the 'watchful waiting' strategy for moderate-to-severe AS cases is failing many of these patients. In addition, the insights from the results that show how EchoSolv AS was able to identify the severe AS phenotype more accurately than cardiologists, particularly in some subtypes of AS. This study was of particular interest as it showed clearly that the company have work to do in accurately diagnosing women with aortic stenosis and the company are optimistic with the performance of EchoSolv AS to improve the gender equity. Study titled, "Accuracy of cardiologist reporting of severe aortic stenosis vs decision-support artificial intelligence and its impact on clinical management" presented by Dr. Vikas Bhat, University of Notre Dame Australia, this investigator-initiated study compared traditional cardiologist reporting with EchoSolv™?, an AI-powered clinical decision support system. Findings from 30,878 echocardiograms revealed: EchoSolv outperformed cardiologists in identifying severe AS phenotypes, particularly in women and low- gradient cases. Findings underscore the need for policy and clinical practice changes to address treatment gaps and improve survival. This study was funded by an IIS grant from Edwards LifeScience. The funders played no part in the data curation/analysis /preparation of these data. EchoSolv AS is poised to change this paradigm by enabling more precise and consistent identification of high-risk AS patients, thereby supporting clinicians in making informed, timely decisions regarding intervention. Globally, AS is a widespread but frequently underdiagnosed condition, primarily caused by calcification of the aortic valve, which serves as a critical gateway to the heart. Failure to diagnose AS in a timely manner can lead to missed opportunities for lifesaving interventions, such as valve replacement surgery. EchoSolv AS has undergone rigorous validation, including FDA Clearance, through extensive testing across both the United States and Australia, demonstrating the utility of aiding in the accurate diagnosis of patients with aortic stenosis. NEDA principal investigator, Professor David Playford, the senior author for both studies, said: " These studies confirm previous reports in two ways. First, reaffirm that moderate and severe aortic stenosis is a lifethreatening condition that causes significant health service utilization, heart failure hospitalizations and premium mortality. Second, artificial intelligence is capable of outperforming cardiologists in the identification of the set of abnormalities that happen when aortic stenosis progresses toward the severe state. These two findings, taken together, reinforce that EchoSolv AS AI should be considered as a routine option during echocardiographic reporting.

New major risk - Financial position The company has less than a year of cash runway based on its current free cash flow trend. Free cash flow: -AU$6.5m This is considered a major risk. With less than a year's worth of cash, the company will need to raise capital or take on debt unless its cash flows improve. This would dilute existing shareholders or increase balance sheet risk. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-AU$6.5m free cash flow). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (20% increase in shares outstanding). Revenue is less than US$5m (AU$1.7m revenue, or US$1.1m).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 20% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$130k revenue, or US$84k). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (20% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$145.2m market cap, or US$94.2m). New Risk • May 28
New minor risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 75% of Australian stocks, typically moving 13% a week. This is considered a minor risk. Share price volatility indicates the stock is highly sensitive to market conditions or economic conditions rather than being sensitive to its own business performance, which may also be inconsistent. It also increases the risk of potential losses in the short term as the stock tends to have larger drops in price more frequently than other stocks. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$130k revenue, or US$84k). Minor Risks Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (13% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (19% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$147.1m market cap, or US$94.8m). New Risk • May 19
New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: AU$141.2m (US$91.0m) This is considered a minor risk. Companies with a small market capitalization are most likely businesses that have not yet released a product to market or are simply a very small company without a wide reach. Either way, risk is elevated with these companies because there is a chance the product may not come to fruition or the company's addressable market or demand may not be as large as expected. In addition, if the company's size is the main factor, it is less likely to have many investors and analysts following it and scrutinizing its performance and outlook. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m (AU$130k revenue, or US$84k). Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (19% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (AU$141.2m market cap, or US$91.0m). Breakeven Date Change • May 12

Echo IQ Provides Update on the Company's Pre-Submission Meeting with the United States Food and Drug Administration Regarding Its Heart Failure Clinical Decision Support Solution Echo IQ provided an update on the Company's pre-submission meeting with the United States ("US") Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") regarding its heart failure clinical decision support solution ("EchoSolv HF"). The Company is also pleased to announceda collaboration agreement with the Mayo Clinic Platform, part of the Mayo Clinic, a top-ranked US hospital, to undertake Echo IQ's proposed validation study and qualify the Company's artificial intelligence ("AI") heart failure model. The study, expected to commence this quarter, marks the final clinical requirement prior to a formal submission for clearance by the FDA. Echo IQ anticipates FDA clearance for EchoSolv HF during H2 CY2025. Echo IQ requested the pre-submission meeting with the US FDA in December 2024 to verify the design for a proposed validation study which will evaluate EchoSolv HF in its ability to detect various forms of heart failure. The Company undertook the meeting during the first quarter of 2025 and advises that it had positive engagement with the regulator. The engagement has provided the Company confidence to advance the proposed study design of EchoSolv HF's upcoming clinical validation study. Agreement with the Mayo Clinic Platform to undertake validation study and utilisation of EchoSolv HF: Following the pre-submission meeting, the Company executed a collaboration agreement with the Mayo Clinic Platform to undertake the upcoming validation study. Mayo Clinic Platform is focused on earlier diagnoses, more accurate diagnosis and care personalised for each person. Mayo Clinic Platform is creating a world where the best possible care is available to everyone, everywhere. As new technologies create novel opportunities and approaches, Mayo Clinic Platform is harnessing these new technologies to change how care is provided. As part of the agreement, the Mayo Clinic Platform also has the right to utilise EchoSolv HF within the group's network of 30 hospitals, utilise Mayo Clinic Platform's proprietary integration software system alongside the product and co-brand with the Company on its EchoSolv HF and heart failure related materials. The pending validation study will commence this quarter with anticipated completion mid-year. This leaves the Company well placed to meet its proposed timelines for a formal submission to the FDA for regulatory clearance of EchoSolv HF in H2 this calendar year. The agreement with Mayo Clinic Platform provides strong validation of the Company's offering and its potential to positively impact heart failure, which is a widespread condition globally. Heart failure is the leading cause of re-hospitalisation in the US, accounting for 17% of all US healthcare expenditure i. The market for heart failure is estimated to be USD 70 billion annually ii.

Echo Iq Limited Announces Positive Interim Results from Clinical Trial At St Vincent's Echo IQ announced positive interim results from its clinical trial at St Vincent's Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The study demonstrates that the artificial intelligence in Echo's IQ's EchoSolv TM for Aortic Stenosis ("EchoSolv TM) enhances the identification of severe aortic stenosis (AS) using echocardiography. Echo IQ's EchoSolvTM platform for the detection of severe aortic stenosis was applied retrospectively to echocardiography ("echo") data from the hospital. The results of the EchoSolv TM platform were compared with the cardiologist reports and clinical outcomes of patients. The trial's primary objective was to evaluate whether EchoSolv TM could enhance identification of patients with severe AS and help guide doctors to make active management plans for these patients. EchoSolvTM successfully identified 100% of patients with guideline-defined severe aortic stenosis (being 317, or 3.8%, of the study population of 8,257 patients attending the hospital's echo laboratory). EchoSolvTM showed its capability to enhance clinical practice as 142 (or 45%) of those patients identified with guideline-severe AS by EchoSolv TM had not been identified as having guideline-severe AS by the cardiologist. EchoSolvTM identified an additional 145 patients (1.8% of the total study population) with a medium-high probability of severe AS but falling outside current clinical practice guidelines for a severe AS diagnosis. These patients would benefit from further review by the cardiologist. This study demonstrates the potential for EchoSolvTM to play an important "decision support" role in echo reporting because of the major influence a diagnosis of severe AS has on subsequent management. The echo report issued by the cardiologist has a substantial impact on valve intervention decisions. Where severe AS had been reported by the cardiologist, patients went on to receive aortic valve replacements in 57% of cases. Where the patient had not initially been identified as having disease of this severity by the cardiologist only 23% of cases underwent valve intervention. Severe AS is a serious condition with a high risk of death if left untreated, so identifying all patients with severe AS is of great importance. EchoSolv TM therefore shows strong promise by successfully highlighting all patients with guideline-severe AS to the reporting cardiologist, to assist with decision- making. Aankondiging • Dec 09
Echo IQ Launches EchoSolv for Immediate Distribution AI and Medical Technology company Echo IQ announced that its cloud-based enhanced screening platform for structural heart disease, commencing with aortic stenosis, is now available to registered customers in the US. The platform will be sold under the name EchoSolv which has been chosen to reflect the importance of identifying patients at risk of structural heart disease, and the vital role that analysis of echocardiograms plays in meeting that challenge. The EchoSolv software platform is designed to support clinicians and physicians in identifying patients with guideline-defined aortic stenosis in the first instance. Whilst treatment options for sufferers of severe aortic stenosis are considered safe and reliable, the condition has a 2 -year mortality rate of 50% when left untreated. EchoSolv TM is designed to ensure patients who would benefit from treatment or further clinical review are accurately identified. The rigorously tested product has been developed in consultation with leading cardiologists. Echo IQ's Chief Medical Advisor and Cardiologist, Professor David Playford indicates that EchoSolv "automates the identification of high-risk aortic stenosis patients. It heralds the beginning of a new era by improving the cardiologist's focus on patients at-risk without requiring any change of cardiac imaging solution, no new hardware, no new devices, and no new interference with existing infrastructure." Key Product Features: Rapid automated assessment of echocardiographic measurements for consistent analysis. Bulk assessments completed at a rate of up to 48,000 per minute. EchoSolv dashboard displays whether in-guideline thresholds have been met plus displays of key measurements and time-stamped assessments. Optional SMS/Email alerts for high-risk patients. Results can be exported in PDF and other formats. Ability to deploy platform to new markets incorporating local regulatory frameworks. Available Web Application Programming Interface (API) supports optional integration into existing workflows/systems for real-time results. Role based access controls for audit and usage traceability. Cloud-based HIPAA and SOC2 compliant platform ensures security of patient and provider information. Echo IQ is initially introducing EchoSolv in the United States where the Company has recently achieved positive results with the product in a clinical efficacy study with Harvard Medical School's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. This study demonstrated that EchoSolv successfully identified sizeable cohorts of patients with guideline-detected severe aortic stenosis as well those with a significantly heightened risk of death from the condition.

Echo IQ Limited Announces Positive Results from US Clinical Study Echo IQ announced that it has achieved clear and positive results from its clinical effectiveness and validation study conducted at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC). These results are the first for Echo IQ from the important US market. Echo IQ entered into a study agreement with Beth Israel De aconess Medical Center to assess the effectiveness of the Company's technology, as announced 27 July 2022. The study was conducted to retrospectively analyse patient records to evaluate Echo IQ's technology in detecting individuals with severe aortic stenosis as well as those with increased risk of death from the disease in a North American population. Key Findings: This study was performed on 31,141 patient records from the hospital. Echo IQ's commercially-ready AI-backed technology, named "EchoSolv TM, was applied to the BIDMC patient dataset. The key findings were: After excluding patients previously known to have been treated with an aortic valve replacement and compared to routine clinical interpretation, it rapidly and clearly identified a cluster of patients meeting guideline-definitions of severe aortic stenosis. This group accounted for a large (~5%) percentage of patients undergoing echocardiography at BIDMC. The study revealed that this cohort, meeting current echocardiographic guidelines for severe AS, received valve replacement in fewer than 50% of cases, consistent with known rates of treatment. Overall, the study showed that treatment for those with increased risk of death from aortic stenosis was received in only a quarter of cases identified by EchoSolv TM. EchoSolv TM was also successful in identifying an additional group of individuals, similar in size to the first, with a similar pattern to those with severe aortic stenosis and having a substantially increased risk of death despite not meeting current treatment guidelines. Being able to identify this group of patients has the potential to assist clinicians in the important prioritization of patients that may benefit from more intense follow-up or aortic valve replacement.
