Using Strategic Equity to Improve Financial Position

This move is part of VERO’s broader capital structure optimization strategy, which shows the company’s commitment to debt reduction and posture for long-term, sustainable growth.
Reduction in Debt Obligations

This is a notable 11% drop from the $39.7 million reported at the end of December 2024. The debt reduction provides VERO with greater financial freedom as it continues its operational transformation and works toward its long-term objectives.
Collaboration with Madryn Asset Management
Venus Concept stressed that Madryn Asset Management’s ongoing assistance and collaboration were essential to the transaction’s success. As VERO embarked on its next stage of innovation and growth with a new product roadmap, Madryn’s assistance not only made the debt conversion easier but also enhanced the company’s balance sheet.
