Myomo, Inc. (NYSE American: MYO) (“Myomo” or the “Company”), a wearable medical robotics company that offers increased functionality for those suffering from neurological disorders and upper-limb paralysis, today announced that directors Amy Knapp and Yitzchak Jacobovitz have informed the board they will not stand for re-election as Class II directors. Ms. Knapp has been a director since July 2016 and Mr. Jacobovitz has served on Myomo’s board since January 2023. Their terms will conclude as of the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting expected to be held in June 2025.

“I’m grateful for the insights and contributions Amy and Yitz have provided the board during their tenures, and extend deepest thanks to both for their work on behalf of Myomo, our shareholders and the patients we serve,” said Paul R. Gudonis, chairman and chief executive officer. “We plan to name additional directors in the future as we continue to evolve Myomo’s governance and strategic oversight.”

“It has been a privilege to serve on Myomo’s board and I’m gratified to have played a role in the growth and success of the company to date. With the achievement of Medicare Part B coverage for the MyoPro™ and an outstanding leadership team, I believe the future is bright for Myomo, and I’m pleased to continue advising the Company on reimbursement matters,” said Ms. Knapp.

“I am highly confident in the Company’s strategic direction, its financial position and its trajectory toward achieving sustainable positive cash flow,” said Mr. Jacobovitz. “I look forward to actively supporting and advising the Company as a non-voting board observer.”
