  • Designed to be simpler and more affordable to expand access to diabetes technology for previously underserved communities

  • Commercial availability expected in early 2025

Modular Medical, Inc. (the "Company" or "Modular Medical") (NASDAQ:MODD), an insulin delivery system technology company preparing to launch a market expansion product with a more accessible, easier to prescribe, and easier to pay for and live with technology, today announced it has received U. S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") clearance to market and sell its MODD1 pump in the United States. With its commercial manufacturing infrastructure substantially established, the Company anticipates the MODD1 should be available for sale in early 2025.

"For too long, the benefits of superior glycemic control achieved by insulin pumps have, due to cost and complexity, been restricted to only the most sophisticated, motivated and well-insured users. The goal of Modular Medical has always been to change this by making diabetes technology accessible and affordable to underserved communities. We seek to make the experience of going ‘on a pump' simpler and less intimidating and to widen the base beyond the current pump users," said Jeb Besser, CEO of Modular Medical.

"I want to thank our employees for their hard work and dedication in bringing this product to the market and our shareholders for their ongoing support of the Company. We will continue to deliver on our mission of enabling ‘diabetes care for the rest of us' and delivering on the needs of all patients and clinicians," added Paul DiPerna, Chairman and President of Modular Medical.

Modular Medical will hold a conference call to discuss the clearance of the MODD1 pump, as well as next steps and milestones. Details for the conference call will be announced when available.
