Coloplast Announces FDA Approval of Titan Prime Inflatable Penile Prosthesis Coloplast announced FDA approval of Titan Prime, an inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) that represents the company’s next-generation device and will be available in the U.S. in late 2026. Around 30 million men in the US experience ongoing difficulty in getting or keeping an erection firm enough for sexual activity. As an alternative to medication, some benefit from long-term treatment options such as an inflatable penile prosthesis, which is delivered through a single outpatient procedure. Inflatable Penile Prosthesis Titan Prime IPP is designed to emulate the appearance and performance of a natural erection, supporting device performance for patients, surgeons, and partners. Built with proprietary Bioflex – a polymer engineered for greater strength and durability than silicone – Titan Prime IPP delivers greater material strength than leading silicone competitors and withstands higher pressures to reinforce reliability. Titan Prime IPP preserves the rigidity and girth surgeons trust from Titan IPP today, while providing improved flaccid flexibility for comfort and concealability. The result is consistent, predictable outcomes across diverse male anatomies. Titan Prime is now FDA-approved and will be available through a phased launch to urologists and health care systems in the United States beginning in late 2026. Titan Prime IPP is approved for use in the United States by the FDA. Coloplast is pursuing regulatory approvals in other countries, where the product is not yet available. Board Change • May 20

New major risk - Financial position The company's debt is not well covered by operating cash flow. Operating cash flow to total debt ratio: 9.7% This is considered a major risk. If the company's operating cash flows are too small relative to the size of their debt, it increases their balance sheet risk. The company has less cash from operations to cover its expenses from servicing large debt and it increases the risk of liquidity issues. It also extends the time it would take for the company to pay back the debt in full, meaning it may not be able to easily pay it all off in a distress scenario. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (9.7% operating cash flow to total debt). Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 94% Cash payout ratio: 448% Minor Risk Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (5.9% increase in shares outstanding).

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 5.8% 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: Minor Risks High level of debt (314% net debt to equity). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (5.8% increase in shares outstanding). Reported Earnings • Aug 18

Coloplast Launches Male Catheter Designed to Reduce the Risk of Urinary Tract Infections Coloplast launches male catheter designed to reduce the risk of urinary tract infections. The new intermittent catheter Luja addresses important risk factors for urinary tract infections, a significant burden for people using intermittent catheters as well as healthcare systems as a whole. Urinary tract infections represent a significant challenge for people who use intermittent catheters to empty their bladder. This includes people living with spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, or spina bifida. On average, intermittent catheter users have 2-3 urinary tract infections per year1-3, which can lead to serious health complications4, have a significant impact on quality of life2, and result in hospitalisation5-9, thereby putting pressure on local healthcare systems. Coloplast is now launching Luja, the first and only male catheter featuring 80+ micro-holes, aiming to address important UTI risk factors1 linked to intermittent catheterisation. Flow stops and blockage of the catheter eyelets during emptying increase the risk of leaving residual urine behind in the bladder. Residual urine increases the risk of bacteria growth and is a well-known UTI risk factor. The launch of Luja begins this month, February, in Denmark and Finland, and the product is expected to be available across Coloplast’s key markets over the next 12 months. Coloplast is currently conducting two pivotal clinical studies to document and demonstrate the benefits of Luja. The results are expected to be publicly available within the next few months. In 2021/22, the global market for continence care products was worth an estimated 15-16 billion DKK with an underlying annual market growth of 5-6%. Coloplast is the global market leader in continence care, and the company continues to outgrow the market and take market share. The launch of Luja is expected to contribute to Coloplast’s growth trajectory and help solidify the company’s global market leader position. Luja has close to no flow stops and complete bladder emptying is defined as <10 mL (CP353, NCT05485922). Announcement • Feb 03
