Hyperfine Expands European Market Reach with Additional Strategic Distributor Partners

New distribution partnerships further global expansion plans for the Swoop system, growing the reach of Hyperfine to a total of twelve European countries

Hyperfine (Nasdaq: HYPR), the groundbreaking health technology company that has redefined brain imaging with the first FDA-cleared portable magnetic resonance (MR) brain imaging system—the Swoop^® system—today announced it has entered into agreements with experienced and accomplished distributors in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and key Nordic markets.

With the Swoop^® system’s transformative, affordable, and accessible platform, Hyperfine aims to serve more clinicians and patients needing brain imaging across the globe. Plans to introduce the system into international markets represent a significant step in the company’s commercial growth. With the recent addition of distributors covering Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and the major Nordic markets, along with previously appointed distributors in France, the United Kingdom, and Italy, Hyperfine is now positioned for commercial expansion into twelve European countries.

"We are thrilled with the initial feedback from clinicians in European sites. The positive feedback highlights the Swoop^® system's potential to significantly impact adult and pediatric care throughout Europe," said Maria Sainz, President and CEO of Hyperfine.

The system being introduced to the European markets is commercialized in the U.S. and represents the highest-performing Swoop^® system to date in terms of image quality, speed, and usability. The company’s strong track record of securing international approvals enables its expansion into global markets.

In addition to the company’s European expansion plans, Hyperfine announced in May 2024 a distribution agreement to develop Asian markets, including India.

About the Swoop^® Portable MR Imaging^® System

The Swoop^® Portable MR Imaging^® system is U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared for brain imaging of patients of all ages. It is a portable, ultra-low-field magnetic resonance imaging device for producing images that display the internal structure of the head where full diagnostic examination is not clinically practical. When interpreted by a trained physician, these images provide information that can be useful in determining a diagnosis. The Swoop^® system also has CE certification in the European Union and UKCA certification in the United Kingdom. The Swoop^® system is commercially available in a select number of international markets.
