Vicarious Surgical Inc Demonstrates Sustained System Performance And Complex Hernia Procedure Workflows In Pre-Clinical Setting Vicarious Surgical Inc. announced the successful completion of a full-day synthetic abdominal model lab demonstrating sustained system performance and continued procedural workflow progression for the Vicarious Surgical System. During the lab, the Vicarious Surgical System operated fully draped for multiple hours while the CMO, an experienced abdominal surgeon, performed back-to-back IPOM+ and robotic transabdominal preperitoneal (rTAPP) ventral hernia repair workflows. The lab was conducted using the Company’s integrated instrument suite, including needle drivers, graspers, monopolar scissors and electrosurgical energy. The lab represents an important progression beyond the Company’s previously announced integrated benchtop testing milestone by extending validation of the Vicarious Surgical System into sustained procedural workflows under clinically relevant operating conditions. The testing demonstrated continued progress in runtime stability, visualization, instrument control and workflow execution as the Company advances toward design freeze and future cadaveric and in-vivo studies. The Company intends to continue expanding procedural workflow testing and system validation activities as it advances development of the Vicarious Surgical System for ventral hernia repair and other abdominal procedures.

Vicarious Surgical Inc. Completes Integrated Benchtop Testing of Full Surgical Instrument Suite for Ventral Hernia Repair Vicarious Surgical Inc. announced the successful completion of initial integrated benchtop testing for its full suite of surgical instruments, required for its anticipated first clinical indication of ventral hernia repair, marking an important step toward design validation, clinical readiness, and the Company’s targeted design freeze milestone. This milestone represents the first system-level performance evaluation of the Company's three core instruments: needle drivers, fenestrated graspers, and monopolar scissors, each of which is designed for use with the Vicarious Surgical System. The successful testing of all three instruments in a unified evaluation serves as a critical step in systematically de-risking the Company's path toward first-in-human use. Notably, the monopolar scissors, which previously demonstrated successful electrical performance in a December porcine lab study, exhibited strong motion and mechanical cutting capabilities following the Company's standard automated calibration and bring-up process. Importantly, instrument and camera sensors remained stable, with no degradation in video or motion quality in the presence of monopolar electrosurgical energy, confirming robust system performance under clinically relevant operating conditions. The successful completion of this benchtop testing positions the Company to advance to the next phase of preclinical validation, including planned cadaveric and porcine studies, as it continues to prepare for first clinical use of the Vicarious Surgical System and execute against a defined series of development milestones leading to design freeze.

Vicarious Surgical Inc. Receives Delisting Notice From NYSE On March 3, 2026, the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) notified Vicarious Surgical Inc. (the Company) that the NYSE had determined to (A) immediately suspend trading in the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the Common Stock), due to a determination that the Company had fallen below the NYSE's continued listing standard requiring listed companies to maintain an average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading day period of at least $15,000,000 pursuant to Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, and (B) commence proceedings to delist the Common Stock. The NYSE has stated that it will apply to the Securities and Exchange Commission to delist the Common Stock by filing a Form 25 upon completion of all applicable procedures, including any appeal by the Company of the NYSE's delisting determination, which appeal must be made within ten business days from receipt of the determination. The Company is currently evaluating whether to appeal the delisting determination. The Company has received approval of its application to have the Common Stock quoted on the OTCID market tier (OTCID) operated by the OTC Markets Group Inc. (OTC Markets). The Company expects that the Common Stock will commence quotation on the OTCID at the open of business on March 4, 2026 under the current trading symbol of RBOT. The OTCID is a significantly more limited market than the NYSE, and quotation on any OTC market will result in a less liquid market for existing and potential holders of the Common Stock to trade the Common Stock and could further depress the trading price of the Common Stock. The Company can provide no assurance that the Common Stock will continue to trade on this market, whether broker-dealers will provide and continue to provide public quotes of the Common Stock on this market, or whether the trading volume of the Common Stock will be sufficient to provide for an efficient trading market. The suspension and/or delisting of the Company's common stock from the NYSE could negatively impact the Company by (i) reducing the liquidity and market price of the Common Stock; (ii) reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire the Common Stock, which could negatively impact the Company's ability to raise equity financing; (iii) impacting the Company's ability to use a registration statement to offer and sell freely tradable securities, thereby preventing the Company from accessing the public capital markets; and (iv) impairing the Company's ability to provide equity incentives to its employees.

New major risk - Share price stability The company's share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months. It is more volatile than 90% of American stocks, typically moving 16% a week. This is considered a major risk. Share price volatility 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. It may also indicate 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. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (16% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 2 years (US$51m net loss in 2 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (20% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$13.1m market cap). Announcement • Jan 13
Vicarious Surgical Advances Toward Design Freeze with Successful In-Vivo Porcine Lab Vicarious Surgical announced the successful completion of an in-vivo porcine lab conducted in December 2025, marking a meaningful step forward in the development of the company's robotic system and reinforcing progress toward system design freeze targeted for the end of 2026. During the lab, surgeons independently completed key elements of a ventral hernia repair using Vicarious Surgical's pre-DV system as part of a limited-scope feasibility assessment. In parallel, the company executed a series of targeted technical evaluations designed to assess system performance against key engineering and functional specifications. Data generated during the lab, along with structured surgeon feedback, are being incorporated into ongoing design refinement, verification planning, and system optimization efforts. The December in-vivo lab builds on Vicarious Surgical's disciplined, specification-driven development approach and reflects the company's focus on minimizing technical risk through iterative testing, surgeon engagement, and data-driven execution at this stage of system integration. This marks the Company's first in-vivo animal lab conducted in several years, and the first performed with an integrated system architecture rather than early-stage prototypes, providing critical insight into system behavior under realistic surgical conditions. The lab was conducted for research and development purposes only and was not designed to support regulatory submissions or clinical claims. New Risk • Dec 26

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: US$49k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$50m free cash flow).

(the ‘Company’) received a written notice (the ‘Notice’) from the New York Stock Exchange (the ‘NYSE’) indicating the Company was no longer in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards set forth in Section 802.01B of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual (the ‘Minimum Market Capitalization Standard’) due to the fact that the Company’s average global market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period was less than $50 million and, at the same time, its stockholders’ equity was less than $50 million. In accordance with applicable NYSE procedures, the Company timely submitted a plan (the ‘Compliance Plan’) to the NYSE advising it of the definitive actions the Company has taken, is taking, and plans to take that would bring it into conformity with the Minimum Market Capitalization Standard within 18 months of receipt of the Notice (the ‘Cure Period’). On July 8, 2025, the NYSE notified the Company that it had accepted the Compliance Plan (the ‘Acceptance Letter’). The NYSE will review the Company on a quarterly basis to confirm compliance with the Compliance Plan. If the Company fails to comply with the Compliance Plan or does not meet the Minimum Market Capitalization Standard at the end of the Cure Period, it will be subject to NYSE’s prompt initiation of suspension and delisting procedures. The Acceptance Letter has no immediate impact on the listing of the Company’s Class A common stock, which will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the Cure Period, subject to the Company’s continued compliance with the Compliance Plan and NYSE’s other continued listing standards. However, the Class A common stock trading symbol will have an added designation of ‘.BC’ to indicate that the status of the Class A common stock is below criteria with the NYSE continued listing standards. The ‘.BC’ indicator will be removed at such time as the Company regains compliance. The current noncompliance with the NYSE listing standards does not affect the Company’s ongoing business operations or its U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘Commission’) reporting requirements. The Company is considering all available options to regain compliance with NYSE’s continued listing standards. Board Change • Jul 02

New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 21% 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 Risks Less than 1 year of cash runway based on free cash flow trend (-US$50m free cash flow).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.1% per year for the foreseeable future. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (28% average weekly change). Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.1% per year for the foreseeable future. Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$82m net loss in 3 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (40% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (US$63.3m market cap). Announcement • Feb 13

New minor risk - Market cap size The company's market capitalization is less than US$100m. Market cap: US$89.6m 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 Risks Share price has been highly volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$50m net loss in 3 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (41% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$99k sold).

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 American stocks, typically moving 15% 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. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$50m net loss in 3 years). Share price has been volatile over the past 3 months (15% average weekly change). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (42% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$147k sold). Announcement • Jul 14

New minor risk - Insider selling There has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: US$147k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Revenue is less than US$1m. Minor Risks Currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over next 3 years (US$62m net loss in 3 years). Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (4.7% increase in shares outstanding). Significant insider selling over the past 3 months (US$147k sold). Recent Insider Transactions • May 27
