Descriptiontext

Saluda Medical is a commercial-stage medical device company that develops and sells the Evoke System, a closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS) platform indicated for chronic intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs. Founded in 2010 and dual-headquartered in Bloomington, Minnesota (U.S. operating subsidiary) and Macquarie Park, Australia (Saluda Medical Pty Limited, the listed parent), the company pioneered the use of Evoked Compound Action Potentials (ECAPs) in 2011 — the electrical signature the spinal cord generates in response to stimulation — and has since built what it describes as the world's largest ECAP measurement database.

The product architecture centers on three patented components: the Evoke implantable pulse generator (IPG) paired with SmartLoop technology, which automatically re-adjusts stimulation on every pulse (over 4 million times per day) to maintain a therapeutic dose; EVA Sensing Technology, the first FDA-approved automated programming platform in SCS; and the CAP24 surgical paddle lead, the first and only SCS paddle lead purpose-built for closed-loop neuromodulation (FDA approved June 2026). The company's commercial motion is enterprise field sales targeting implanting physicians — pain specialists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedic surgeons — supported by KOL engagement, a Physician Finder website tool, a Patient Ambassador program, and a Saluda SmartAccess reimbursement support service. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of the IPG and leads to hospitals and physicians; pricing is not publicly disclosed and follows a quote-based process.

Saluda Medical listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in December 2025 (ASX:SLD) at a ~A$775 million fully diluted valuation, raising ~A$230.8 million (≈US$150 million). The company has raised over US$250 million of equity since 2017, including US$150 million from Wellington, Fidelity, and TPG in April 2023 and a US$100 million round in January 2025 from Redmile, Wellington, Fidelity, TPG, T. Rowe Price, Piper Heartland, and Action Potential Venture Capital. FY25 revenue was US$70 million against a US$128 million loss, with FY26 guidance raised on the back of "strong commercial progress" per company disclosures. The company competes against Medtronic, Boston Scientific, and Abbott in a U.S. SCS market that company materials size at >US$26 billion.
