EDAP changes name to FocalTherics, shifts focus to robotic focal therapy

May 29, 2026 7:30 AM

EDAP TMS S.A. (NASDAQ: EDAP) announced it will operate under the new corporate name "FocalTherics" to reflect its focus on robotic focal therapy. The company will begin trading under the new ticker symbol "FOCL" at market open on June 1, 2026.



The company plans to classify its Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) and Distribution operating segments as discontinued operations beginning with second quarter 2026 financial results. CEO Ryan Rhodes said the new name derives from "Focal Therapy" and "Therapeutics" and aligns with the company's Focal One product brand.



The ticker symbol change applies to the company's American Depositary Shares, with each representing one ordinary share. The legal name will remain EDAP TMS S.A., though the company intends to seek shareholder approval for a corresponding legal name change at a future general meeting. No action is required by shareholders regarding these changes, and existing shareholder rights remain unaffected.



The American Depositary Shares will continue trading on NASDAQ with the same CUSIP number following the ticker change. FocalTherics will host an Investor Day on June 1, 2026 at 8:00 am ET to discuss its corporate identity, growth strategy, and business outlook.



The company develops and markets medical devices using focused ultrasound technology. Its Focal One Robotic HIFU platform combines imaging, treatment planning, robotic precision, and HIFU technology for focal therapy procedures.
