Under Rule&#160;15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the ADSs on any day prior to the business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the ADSs initially will settle in T+2, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of ADSs who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisors. </font>

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We are advancing the evaluation of our Focal One Robotic HIFU platform for the potential treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (&#8220;BPH&#8221;). Based on published third-party estimates, more than 100&#160;million men worldwide are living with BPH, with more than 13&#160;million new cases diagnosed annually including over 600,000 in the United States. We believe our experience in robotic HIFU for prostate cancer may provide a foundation for developing a non-invasive treatment option for patients with BPH. Our BPH development program is currently focused on feasibility studies inside and outside the United States. In the United States, the feasibility study has received Institutional Review Board approval. Outside the United States, a multicenter feasibility study is underway. </font>

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We are also advancing development of the Focal One Robotic HIFU platform for the potential treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis, a severe form of endometriosis for which treatment options are currently limited primarily to hormonal therapy and surgery. Based on published third-party estimates, approximately 38&#160;million women worldwide are affected by deep infiltrating endometriosis, with more than 783,000 patients diagnosed annually including over 225,000 in the United States. We believe our robotic HIFU technology may provide a non-invasive treatment alternative, as opposed to current treatment options that are limited to hormone therapy and/or invasive surgery, designed to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life. Outside the United States, our endometriosis program is progressing through ongoing clinical development, including a randomized controlled pivotal study, and we have initiated a limited commercial launch in Europe under our CE mark for this indication. In the United States, we received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for this indication in 2024 and are evaluating long-term data generated from our European studies to inform our regulatory strategy. </font>

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Focal One has not been cleared or approved by the FDA for the treatment of deep infiltrating endometriosis, and its use for that indication in the United States is investigational. Breakthrough Device Designation provides for enhanced interaction with the FDA during development and review but does not guarantee or accelerate clearance or approval, and there can be no assurance that Focal One will receive clearance or approval for this indication. </font>

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">During the second quarter of 2026, the ESWL and Distribution segments met the criteria to be classified as held for sale under ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements&#8201;&#8212;&#8201;Discontinued Operations, and ASC 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment, and we determined that the planned exit represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on our operations and financial results. Accordingly, our unaudited financial results as of and for the six&#160;months ended June&#160;30, 2026 will reflect our ESWL and Distribution operating segments as discontinued operations.

The following information reflects our preliminary estimates with respect to such data based on currently available information and does not present all necessary information for an understanding of our financial condition as of and for the six&#160;months ended June&#160;30, 2026.

            <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We have provided ranges, rather than specific amounts, for the information below, primarily because our financial closing and analysis procedures as of and for the six&#160;months ended June&#160;30, 2026 are not yet completed. This unaudited estimated financial information has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, our management and is subject to revisions based on our procedures and controls associated with our financial reporting process. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on these preliminary estimates. Our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG S.A., has not audited, reviewed, examined, compiled, nor applied agreed-upon procedures with respect to our preliminary results or the accounting treatment thereof and does not express an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto. Our actual unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six&#160;months ended June&#160;30, 2026 are not expected to be filed with the SEC until after the completion of this offering. </font>

Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the ADSs prior to the business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the ADSs initially will settle in T+2, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed a settlement. Purchasers of ADSs who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisors. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">From August&#160;17, 2026, the scope of regulated markets mentioned above will include not only (i)&#160;the regulated markets located in EU or EEA Member States and included on ESMA&#8217;s list, but also (ii)&#160;the markets located in third countries benefiting from an EU equivalence decision (including U.S. NYSE and Nasdaq); and (iii)&#160;the following specifically designated exchanges: London Stock Exchange (United Kingdom); SIX Swiss Exchange (Switzerland); Toronto Stock Exchange (Canada); Singapore Exchange (Singapore); Japan Exchange (Japan); and Korea Exchange (South Korea). The crossing of the threshold of 10% of the voting rights of French companies whose shares are admitted to trading on a regulated market is subject to a fast-track review procedure (filing of a simplified form, delay for the Minister to respond limited to 10&#160;days, transaction deemed authorized in the absence of a response at the end of the delay). </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If an investment in us requiring the prior authorization of the Minister of the Economy is made without such authorization having been granted, the Minister of the Economy may cancel the transaction or order (possibly under financial penalty) the investor concerned (i)&#160;to submit an application for authorization, (ii)&#160;to have the previous situation restored at its own expense or (iii)&#160;to modify the investment. In addition, the Minister may impose undertakings and conditions on the investor (including regular reporting commitments). The investor concerned could also be declared administratively and criminally liable and be sanctioned, in particular, by exclusion from any public contract or by a fine which may not exceed the highest of the following three amounts: (i)&#160;twice the amount of the investment concerned, (ii)&#160;10% of our annual pre-tax revenues and (iii)&#160;&euro;5&#160;million (for a company) or &euro;1&#160;million (for an individual). The application of these regulations is likely to constitute a potential barrier to investments made by investors located outside the European Economic Area and could therefore limit our access to sources of financing. </font>

The average daily trading volume of the ADSs in 2025 was approximately 80,000, the low and high bid price of the ADSs for the last two fiscal&#160;years ended on December&#160;31, 2025, and December&#160;31, 2024, was $3.45 and $8.50, and $1.21 and $2.12, respectively. The ADSs have experienced, and are likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of the ADSs without regard to our operating performance. For example, the average daily trading volume of the ADSs in December&#160;2025 was 62,959 as opposed to 235,289 for the same period of 2024. The price of our securities and the ADSs in particular, may fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, including changes in our business, operations and prospects, and factors beyond our control, including regulatory considerations, results of clinical trials of our products or those of our competitors, developments in patents and other proprietary rights, general market and economic conditions and results of operations being below analysts&#8217; or investors&#8217; expectations. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Any downward pressure on the price of ADSs caused by the sale of ADSs could also encourage short sales of the ADSs by third parties. In a short sale, a prospective seller borrows shares from a shareholder or broker and sells the borrowed shares. The prospective seller hopes that the share price will decline, at which time the seller can purchase shares at a lower price for delivery back to the lender. The seller profits when the share price declines because it is purchasing shares at a price lower than the sale price of the borrowed shares. Such sales could place downward pressure on the price of the ADSs by increasing the number of ADSs being sold, which could further contribute to any decline in the market price of the ADSs. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the ADSs, regardless of our operating performance. If you invest in the ADSs, you could lose some or all of your investment. In addition, periods of volatility in the market price of a company&#8217;s securities, often trigger securities class action litigation. Any additional litigation, if instituted, causes and could cause us to incur substantial costs and our management resources are and could be diverted to defending such litigation, which could adversely affect our financial condition or results of operations. </font>

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for operating costs, capital expenditures and for general corporate purposes, including working capital. Because of the number and variability of factors that will determine our use of the net proceeds from this offering, their ultimate use may vary substantially from their currently intended use. As a result, we may spend or invest these proceeds in a way with which our shareholders disagree.

If few or no securities or industry analysts cover us, the trading price for the ADSs would be negatively impacted. If one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades the ADSs or publishes incorrect or unfavorable research about our business, the price of the ADSs would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company or fails to publish reports on us regularly, or downgrades the ADSs, or if we fail to meet the expectations of analysts, that could also cause the price of the ADSs or trading volume to decline. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Holders of ADSs do not have the same rights as shareholders and accordingly, cannot exercise rights of shareholders against us. The Depositary is the registered shareholder of the deposited shares underlying the ADSs, and therefore holders of ADSs will have the rights provided for and in accordance with the terms of the deposit agreement. We have used and will continue to use reasonable efforts to request that the Depositary notify the holders of ADSs of upcoming votes and ask for voting instructions from them. If a holder fails to return a voting instruction card to the Depositary by the date established by it for receipt of such voting instructions, or if the Depositary receives an improperly completed or blank voting instruction card, or if the voting instructions included in the voting instruction card are illegible or unclear, then such holder will be deemed to have instructed the Depositary to vote its shares and the Depositary shall vote such shares in favor of any resolution proposed or approved by our Board of Directors and against any resolution not so proposed or approved. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Under French law, shareholders have preferential rights to subscribe for cash issuances of new shares or other securities giving rights to acquire additional shares on a pro&#160;rata basis. U.S. holders of our securities may not be able to exercise preferential subscription rights for their shares unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to such rights or an exemption from the registration requirements imposed by the Securities Act is available. We may, from time to time, issue new shares or other securities giving rights to acquire additional shares (such as warrants) at a time when no registration statement is in effect and no Securities Act exemption is available. If so, U.S. holders of our securities will be unable to exercise their preferential rights and their interests will be diluted. We are under no obligation to file any registration statement in connection with any issuance of new shares or other securities. </font>

In that case, the holders of ADSs will receive no value for them. </font>

        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The following discussion describes certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. holders (as defined below) relating to the ownership and disposition of ADSs. This summary applies to U.S. holders that hold the ADSs as capital assets. This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code (the &#8220;Code&#8221;), U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all as in effect on the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to specific U.S. holders in light of their particular circumstances, or to U.S. holders subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws (such as certain financial institutions, insurance companies, broker-dealers and traders in securities or other persons that generally mark their securities to market for U.S. federal income tax purposes, tax-exempt entities, retirement plans, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, certain former citizens, expatriates or long-term residents of the United States, persons that hold ADSs as part of a &#8220;straddle,&#8221; &#8220;hedge,&#8221; &#8220;conversion transaction,&#8221; &#8220;synthetic security&#8221; or integrated investment, persons deemed to sell the ADSs under the constructive sale provisions of the Code, persons who hold or receive the ADSs pursuant to the exercise of any employee stock option or otherwise as compensation, persons that have a &#8220;functional currency&#8221; other than the U.S. dollar, persons that own directly, indirectly or through attribution 10% or more of the voting power or value of the ADSs, corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax, partnerships and other pass-through entities (or arrangements treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes), and investors in such pass-through entities). This summary does not address any U.S. state or local tax consequences, non-U.S. tax consequences or any U.S. federal estate, gift or alternative minimum tax consequences, the application of special tax accounting rules under Section&#160;451(b) of the Code or the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As used in this discussion, the term &#8220;U.S. holder&#8221; means a beneficial owner of ADSs that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or is treated as: (1)&#160;an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2)&#160;a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia, (3)&#160;an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source or (4)&#160;a trust (x)&#160;with respect to which a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of its substantial decisions or (y)&#160;that has elected under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a domestic trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If an entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds ADSs, the U.S. federal income tax consequences relating to an investment in ADSs will depend in part upon the status and activities of such entity or arrangement and the particular partner. Any such entity or arrangement and a partner of any such entity should consult its tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to it (and, as applicable, its partners) of the purchase, ownership and disposition of ADSs. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Persons considering an investment in ADSs should consult their tax advisors as to the particular tax consequences applicable to them relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of ADSs, including the applicability of U.S. federal, state and local tax laws and non-U.S. tax laws. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The discussion below assumes that the representations contained in the deposit agreement are true and that the obligations in the deposit agreement and any related agreement will be complied with in accordance with their terms. Generally, a holder of an ADS should be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the beneficial owner of the ordinary shares represented by the ADS. Accordingly, no gain or loss will be recognized upon an exchange of ADSs for ordinary shares. The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holder of an ADS and the issuer of the security underlying the ADS may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the beneficial ownership by the holder of the underlying security. Accordingly, the creditability of foreign taxes, if any, as described below, could be affected by actions taken by intermediaries in the chain of ownership between the holders of ADSs and our company if as a result of such actions the holders of ADSs are not properly treated as beneficial owners of the underlying ordinary shares. </font>

        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In general, a corporation organized outside the United States will be treated as a passive foreign investment company (&#8220;PFIC&#8221;), for any taxable year in which, after applying certain look-through rules, either (1)&#160;at least 75% of its gross income is &#8220;passive income&#8221;, or (2)&#160;on average at least 50% of the value of its assets, determined on the basis of a quarterly average, are assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income. Passive income for this purpose generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, certain royalties, rents, and gains from the sale or exchange of property that gives rise to passive income. Assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income generally include cash, even if held as working capital or raised in a public offering, marketable securities, and other assets that may produce passive income. Generally, in determining whether a non-U.S. corporation is a PFIC, a proportionate share of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least a 25% interest (by value) is taken into account. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our status as a PFIC will depend on the nature and composition of our gross income, and the nature, composition and value of our gross assets from time to time. We have not yet determined whether we expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year. Based on the nature of our gross income and the estimated value and composition of our gross assets, we believe that we were not a PFIC during the taxable year ended December&#160;31, 2025. Because we may hold a substantial amount of cash and cash equivalents, and because the calculation of the value of our assets may be based in part on the value of the ADSs or ordinary shares, which may fluctuate considerably, we may be a PFIC in the current taxable year or future taxable&#160;years. Even if we determine that we are not a PFIC for a taxable year, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (the &#8220;IRS&#8221;) will agree with our conclusion or would not successfully challenge our position. Our status as a PFIC is a fact-intensive determination made on an annual basis applying principles and methodologies that are unclear in some respects and subject to varying interpretations. In particular, the characterization of our assets as active or passive may depend in part on our current and intended future business plans, which are subject to change. Accordingly, we cannot provide any assurance, and our U.S. counsel expresses no opinion with respect to our PFIC status for any prior, current or future taxable year. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If we are a PFIC in any taxable year during which a U.S. holder owns ADSs, the U.S. holder could be liable for additional taxes and interest charges under the &#8220;PFIC excess distribution regime&#8221; upon (1)&#160;a distribution paid during a taxable year that is greater than 125% of the average annual distributions paid in the three preceding taxable&#160;years, or, if shorter, the U.S. holder&#8217;s holding period for the ADSs, and (2)&#160;any gain recognized on a sale, exchange or other disposition, including a pledge, of the ADSs, whether or not we continue to be a PFIC. Under the PFIC excess distribution regime, the tax on such distribution or gain would be determined by allocating the distribution or gain ratably over the U.S. holder&#8217;s holding period for the ADSs. The amount allocated to the current taxable year (i.e., the year in which the distribution occurs or the gain is recognized) and any year prior to the first taxable year in which we are a PFIC will be taxed as ordinary income earned in the current taxable year. The amount allocated to other taxable&#160;years will be taxed at the highest marginal rates in effect for individuals or corporations, as applicable, to ordinary income for each such taxable year, and an interest charge, generally applicable to underpayments of tax, will be added to the tax. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If we are a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. holder holds ADSs, we generally must continue to be treated as a PFIC by that holder for all succeeding&#160;years during which the U.S. holder holds the ADSs, unless we cease to meet the requirements for PFIC status and the U.S. holder makes a &#8220;deemed sale&#8221; election with respect to the ADSs. If the election is made, the U.S. holder will be deemed to sell the ADSs it holds at their fair market value on the last day of the last taxable year in which we qualified as a PFIC, which may result in recognition of gain (but not loss) taxable under the PFIC excess distribution regime without the receipt of any corresponding cash. After the deemed sale election, the U.S. holder&#8217;s ADSs would not be treated as shares of a PFIC unless we subsequently again become a PFIC. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:12pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder holds ADSs and one of our subsidiaries or other entity in which we held a direct or indirect equity interest is also a PFIC (</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">i.e.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">, a lower-tier PFIC), such U.S. holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the shares of the lower-tier PFIC and would be subject to U.S. federal income tax under the PFIC excess distribution regime on certain distributions by the lower-tier PFIC and on gain from the disposition of shares of the lower-tier </font>

        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">If we are a PFIC, a U.S. holder will not be subject to tax under the PFIC excess distribution regime on distributions or gain recognized on ADSs if such U.S. holder makes a valid &#8220;mark-to-market&#8221; election for the ADSs. A mark-to-market election is available to a U.S. holder only for &#8220;marketable stock.&#8221; The ADSs will be marketable stock as long as they remain listed on the Nasdaq Global Market or other &#8220;qualified exchange&#8221; and are regularly traded, other than in </font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">de minimis</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> quantities, on at least 15&#160;days during each calendar quarter. If a mark-to-market election is in effect, a U.S. holder generally would take into account, as ordinary income each year, the excess of the fair market value of the ADSs held at the end of such taxable year over the adjusted tax basis of such ADSs. The U.S. holder also would take into account, as an ordinary loss each year, the excess of the adjusted tax basis of such ADSs over their fair market value at the end of the taxable year, but only to the extent of the excess of amounts previously included in income over ordinary losses deducted as a result of the mark-to-market election. The U.S. holder&#8217;s tax basis in ADSs would be adjusted to reflect any income or loss recognized as a result of the mark-to-market election. Any gain from a sale, exchange or other disposition of ADSs in any taxable year in which we are a PFIC would be treated as ordinary income and any loss from such sale, exchange or other disposition would be treated first as ordinary loss (to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains previously included in income) and thereafter as capital loss. If, after having been a PFIC for one or more taxable&#160;years, we cease to be classified as a PFIC for the remainder of a U.S. holder&#8217;s holding period in ADSs, the U.S. holder would not be required to take into account any unrecognized gain or loss in the manner described above and any subsequently recognized gain or loss would be subject to tax as described below &#8220;&#8212; Sale or Other Disposition of ADSs.&#8221; </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">A mark-to-market election will not apply to ADSs for any taxable year during which we are not a PFIC, but will remain in effect with respect to any subsequent taxable year in which we become a PFIC. Such election will not apply to our subsidiaries. Accordingly, a U.S. holder may continue to be subject to tax under the PFIC excess distribution regime with respect to any lower-tier PFICs notwithstanding the U.S. holder&#8217;s mark-to-market election for the ADSs. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">The tax consequences that would apply if we are a PFIC also would be different from those described above if a U.S. holder were able to make a valid qualified electing fund (&#8220;QEF&#8221;) election. For any taxable year in which we are a PFIC, we will determine whether we will provide to U.S. holders the information required to make a QEF election. However, there is no assurance that such information will be provided, and prospective investors should not assume that a QEF election will be available. </font>
        </div>
        <div style="text-indent:20pt; margin-top:8pt; width:456pt; line-height:11.5pt;">
          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Each U.S. person that is a shareholder of a PFIC is generally required to file an annual information return on IRS Form 8621 containing such information as the U.S. Treasury Department may require. The failure to file IRS Form 8621 could result in the imposition of penalties and the extension of the statute of limitations with respect to U.S. federal income tax. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:-0.2pt;">The U.S. federal income tax rules relating to PFICs are very complex. Prospective U.S. holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to the impact of PFIC status on the purchase, ownership and disposition of ADSs, the consequences to them of an investment in a PFIC, any elections available with respect to the ADSs and the IRS information reporting obligations with respect to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the ADSs.</font><font style="font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:0.2pt;"> </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">We currently do not expect to make distributions on the ADSs. Subject to the discussion above under &#8220;&#8212; Passive foreign investment company consequences,&#8221; a U.S. holder that receives a distribution with respect to ADSs generally will be required to include the gross amount of such distribution (including the full amount of any French withholding tax on such amount) in gross income as a dividend when actually or constructively received to the extent of the U.S. holder&#8217;s pro&#160;rata share of our current and/or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). To the extent a distribution received by a U.S. holder is not a dividend because it exceeds the U.S. holder&#8217;s pro&#160;rata share of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, it will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital and reduce (but not below zero) the adjusted tax basis of the U.S. holder&#8217;s ADSs. To the extent the distribution exceeds the </font>

Because we do not expect to account for our earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles, U.S. holders should expect all distributions to be reported to them as dividends. Distributions on ADSs that are treated as dividends generally will constitute income from sources outside the United States for foreign tax credit purposes and generally will constitute passive category income. If any foreign withholding tax is imposed on dividends paid on ADSs, U.S. holders may be eligible for a foreign tax credit against such U.S. holder&#8217;s federal income tax liability, or an itemized deduction in lieu of a foreign tax credit. Such dividends will not be eligible for the &#8220;dividends received&#8221; deduction generally allowed to corporate shareholders with respect to dividends received from U.S. corporations. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Dividends paid by a &#8220;qualified foreign corporation&#8221; are eligible under current law for taxation at a reduced capital gains rate rather than the marginal tax rates generally applicable to ordinary income provided that certain requirements are met. A non-U.S. corporation (other than a corporation that is classified as a PFIC with respect to the U.S. holder for the taxable year in which the dividend is paid or the preceding taxable year) generally will be considered to be a qualified foreign corporation (a)&#160;if it is eligible for the benefits of a comprehensive tax treaty with the United States that the Secretary of Treasury of the United States determines is satisfactory for this purpose and that includes an exchange of information provision, or (b)&#160;with respect to any dividend it pays on shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. We believe that the Company qualifies as a resident of France for purposes of, and are eligible for the benefits of, the Convention between the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the French Republic for the Avoidance of Double and the Prevention of Fiscal Evasion with respect to Taxes on Income and Capital, signed January&#160;1, 1996, as amended and currently in force (the &#8220;Convention Treaty&#8221;). We also believe that the Convention Treaty should be treated as satisfying conditions described in clause (a)&#160;above, although there can be no assurance in this regard. Further, the ADSs will be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, which is an established securities market in the United States, and we expect the ADSs to be readily tradable on the Nasdaq Global Market, although there can be no assurance in this regard. Subject to the discussion above under &#8220;&#8212; Passive foreign investment company consequences,&#8221; if the Convention Treaty is applicable, or if the ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, dividends paid on ADSs generally will be &#8220;qualified dividend income&#8221; in the hands of individual U.S. holders, provided that certain conditions are met, including certain holding period requirements and the absence of certain risk reduction transactions. Each U.S. holder is urged to consult its tax advisors regarding the availability of the reduced tax rate on dividends with regard to its particular circumstances. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Subject to the discussion above under &#8220;&#8212; Passive foreign investment company consequences,&#8221; a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the sale or other taxable disposition of ADSs in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount realized (</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">i.e.</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">, the amount of cash plus the fair market value of any property received) on the sale, exchange or other disposition and such U.S. holder&#8217;s adjusted tax basis in the ADSs. Such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain taxable at a reduced rate for non-corporate U.S. holders, or long-term capital loss if, on the date of sale or other taxable disposition, the ADSs were held by the U.S. holder for more than one year. Any capital gain of a non-corporate U.S. holder that is not long-term capital gain is taxed at ordinary income rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized from the sale or other disposition of ADSs will generally be gain or loss from sources within the United States for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">This discussion does not purport to be a complete analysis or listing of all potential tax effects of the acquisition, ownership or disposition of the ADSs to any particular investor, and does not discuss tax considerations that arise from rules of general application or that are generally assumed to be known by investors.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">In 2011, France introduced a comprehensive set of new tax rules applicable to French assets that are held by or in foreign trusts. These rules, among other things, provide for the inclusion of trust assets in the settlor&#8217;s net assets for purposes of applying the French real estate wealth tax, for the application of French gift and death duties to French assets held in trust, for a specific tax on capital on the French assets of foreign trusts not already subject to the French real estate wealth tax and for a number of French tax reporting and disclosure obligations. The following discussion does not address the French tax consequences applicable to securities (including ADSs) held in trusts. If securities are held in trust, the grantor, trustee and beneficiary are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific tax consequences of acquiring, owning and disposing of securities. </font>

This refund mechanism is available to entities established in (i)&#160;an EU Member State or a Member State of the European Economic Area (EEA), other than a non-cooperative State or Territory within the meaning of Article&#160;238-0 A of the FTC that has concluded a tax treaty with France that includes an administrative assistance provision to combat tax fraud and tax evasion (an &#8220;EU/EEA State&#8221;) or (ii)&#160;a State, other than a non-cooperative State or Territory that has concluded a tax treaty with France that includes an administrative assistance clause regarding the exchange of information aimed at combating tax fraud and tax evasion (a &#8220;Treaty State&#8221;), provided that the transferor is not effectively involved in the management or control of the entity whose shares are disposed of or redeemed. In addition, the Amended Finance Bill provides that specific collective investment funds established in EU/EEA States or Treaty States are excluded from the scope of the nonresident capital gain tax mentioned above under certain conditions.

This option is exercisable for a period of 30&#160;days.

Under Rule&#160;15c6-1 of the Exchange Act, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the ADSs on any day prior to the business day before delivery will be required, by virtue of the fact that the ADSs initially will settle in T+2, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of ADSs who wish to make such trades should consult their own advisors. </font>

We have also agreed to reimburse the underwriters for the fees and expenses of their counsel in connection with the offering in an amount up to $&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;, which amount includes up to $&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199;&#8199; for their counsel fees related to determining the offering&#8217;s compliance with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Overallotment transactions involve sales by the underwriters of ADSs in excess of the number of ADSs the underwriters are obligated to purchase. This creates a syndicate short position which may be either a covered short position or a naked short position. In a covered short position, the number of ADSs over-allotted by the underwriters is not greater than the number of ADSs that they may purchase in the option to purchase additional ADSs. In a naked short position, the number of ADSs involved is greater than the number of ADSs in the option to purchase additional ADSs. The underwriters may close out any short position by exercising their option to purchase additional ADSs and/or purchasing ADSs in the open market. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of ADSs in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. In determining the source of ADSs to close out the short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of ADSs available for purchase in the open market as compared with the price at which they may purchase ADSs through exercise of the option to purchase additional ADSs. If the underwriters sell more ADSs than could be covered by exercise of the option to purchase additional ADSs and, therefore, have a naked short position, the position can be closed out only by buying ADSs in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that after pricing there could be downward pressure on the price of the ADSs in the open market that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. The prospectus supplement applicable to each offering of our securities will contain a discussion of the risks applicable to an investment in the securities to which such prospectus supplement relates. Prior to making a decision about investing in our securities, you should carefully consider the specific factors discussed under the heading &#8220;Risk Factors&#8221; in the applicable prospectus supplement, together with all of the other information contained or incorporated by reference into the prospectus supplement or this prospectus. You should also consider the risks, uncertainties and assumptions discussed under Item&#160;1A, &#8220;Risk Factors,&#8221; in our most recent Annual Report on Form&#160;10-K, which is incorporated herein by reference. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by the materialization of any of these risks. The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities. These risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, in the future which will be incorporated by reference. The risks and uncertainties we have described are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">On October&#160;17, 2025, we entered into a &euro;36.0&#160;million credit facility agreement (the &#8220;Finance Contract&#8221;) with the European Investment Bank (&#8220;EIB&#8221;), which is comprised of three tranches: &euro;11.0&#160;million for the first tranche (&#8220;Tranche A&#8221;), &euro;12.0&#160;million for the second tranche (&#8220;Tranche B&#8221;), and &euro;13.0&#160;million for the third tranche (&#8220;Tranche C&#8221;, and collectively, the &#8220;Tranches&#8221;). Concurrent with the execution of the Finance Contract, we entered into a warrant agreement (the &#8220;Warrant Agreement&#8221;) with EIB, which established the terms of the warrants (</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">bons de souscription d&#8217;actions</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">) (the &#8220;Warrants&#8221;) to be issued to EIB prior to the receipt of borrowings under each Tranche. As of March&#160;25, 2026, we have issued 2,624,421 Warrants to EIB in connection with borrowings under Tranche A and estimate that we will issue approximately 1,100,000 Warrants to EIB in connection with borrowings under Tranche B and approximately 850,000 Warrants in connection with borrowings under Tranche C. </font>

The exercise price for each Warrant under each Tranche is determined by taking 90&#160;percent of the euro equivalent 90-day average Nasdaq closing price of our ADSs as of the day prior to issuance of the Warrants for the applicable Tranche, as reduced by a 10% discount. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Each Warrant shall be exercisable for one ordinary share, subject to the anti-dilution adjustments described below. The Warrants have a maturity of twenty&#160;years, and outstanding Warrants are exercisable upon the earliest to occur of (i)&#160;the maturity date of the applicable Tranche, and (ii)&#160;the occurrence of certain events (each an &#8220;Exercise Event&#8221;), including, (a)&#160;the disposal of assets, or shares of subsidiaries holding assets, related to research and development projects, (b)&#160;a change of control of the Company, (c)&#160;the maturity date of the last Tranche disbursed under the Finance Contract, (d)&#160;the prepayment of any principal amount due under the Finance Contract, or (e)&#160;an event of default. </font>

Additional shares may be issued for cash or for assets contributed in kind, upon the conversion of debt securities previously issued by the Company, by capitalization of profits, reserves or share premium, or, subject to certain conditions, by way of offset against indebtedness incurred by the Company. Dividends paid in the form of shares may be distributed in lieu of payment of cash dividends, as described above under &#8220;&#8212; Dividend and Liquidation Rights (French law)&#8221; in this prospectus.

Increases in share capital effected by an increase in the par value of shares require unanimous approval of the shareholders, unless effected by capitalization of reserves, profits or share premium.

Shareholders&#8217; meetings may be convened by the Board of Directors or, if the Board of Directors fails to call such a meeting, by our statutory auditors or by a court-appointed agent. The court may be requested to appoint an agent either by one or more shareholders holding at least 5% of the registered capital or by an interested party under certain circumstances, or, in case of an urgent matter, by the Work Council (</font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Comit&#233; Social et Economique</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">) representing the employees, if any.

Under French law, one or several shareholders together holding a specified&#160;percentage of share capital (as calculated based on a degressive scale in accordance with French law) may propose resolutions to be submitted for approval by the shareholders at the meeting. Upon our request, The Bank of New York Mellon will send to holders of ADSs notices of shareholders&#8217; meetings and other reports and communications that are made generally available to shareholders.

Shareholders deciding to exercise their voting rights must have their shares registered in their names in the shareholder registry maintained by or on behalf of the Company before the meeting. An ADS holder must timely and properly return its voting instruction card to the depositary to exercise the voting rights relating to the shares represented by its ADSs. The depositary will use reasonable efforts to vote the underlying shares in the manner indicated by the ADS holder. In addition, if an ADS holder does not timely return a voting instruction card or the voting instruction card received is improperly completed or blank, that holder will be deemed to have given the depositary a proxy to vote, and the depositary will vote in favor of all proposals recommended by the Board of Directors and against all proposals that are not recommended by the Board of Directors. </font>

Each share confers on the shareholder the right to one vote. Under French law, an entity we control, directly or indirectly, is prohibited from holding shares in the Company and, in the event it becomes a shareholder, shares held by such entity would be deprived of voting rights. A proxy may be granted by a shareholder whose name is registered on our share registry to his or her spouse, his/her partner with whom he/she has entered into a civil union, to another shareholder or to a legal representative, in the case of a legal entity, or by sending a proxy to the Company without indication of the beneficiary (in which </font>

Each share confers on the shareholder the right to one vote. A proxy may be granted by a shareholder whose name is registered on our share registry to his or her spouse, his/her partner with whom he/she has entered into a civil union, to another shareholder or to a legal representative, in the case of a legal entity, or by sending a proxy to the company. Under French law, a proxy that is returned without instructions will be counted as present for purposes of the quorum and will be counted (i)&#160;in favor of the adoption of the draft resolutions supported by the board of directors and (ii)&#160;against the adoption of all other draft resolutions that were not expressly supported by the board of directors. The proxy is only valid for a single meeting or for successive meetings convened with the same agenda. It can also be granted for two shareholders&#8217; general meetings, one ordinary, and the other extraordinary, held on the same day or within a period of 15&#160;days. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Our ordinary shares are traded on the Nasdaq Global Market represented by ADSs delivered by The Bank of New York Mellon (the &#8220;depositary&#8221;) pursuant to the deposit agreement (the &#8220;deposit agreement&#8221;) dated as of July&#160;31, 1997, as amended and restated as of April&#160;7, 2008, among our company, The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary, and all owners and beneficial owners from time to time of ADSs issued thereunder. Ordinary shares that may be issued pursuant to this prospectus and the applicable prospectus supplement, whether directly or upon conversion of preferred shares or exercise of warrants, may be represented by ADSs. The ADSs may be uncertificated securities or certificated securities evidenced by American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs. Each ADS will represent one share (or a right to receive one share) deposited with the principal Paris office of Uptevia (formerly BNP Paribas Securities Services) (the &#8220;custodian&#8221;), as custodian for the depositary under the deposit agreement. Each ADS will also represent any other securities, cash or other property which may be held by the depositary. The depositary&#8217;s corporate trust office at which the ADSs will be administered and its principal executive office are located at 240 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10286 (the &#8220;Corporate Trust Office&#8221;). </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">You may hold ADSs either directly or indirectly through your broker or other financial institution. If you hold ADSs directly, you are an ADS holder. This description assumes you hold your ADSs directly. If you hold the ADSs indirectly, you must rely on the procedures of your broker or other financial institution to assert the rights of ADS holders described in this section. You should consult with your broker or financial institution to find out what those procedures are. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As an ADS holder, we will not treat you as one of our shareholders and you will not have shareholder rights. French law governs the rights of holders of our ordinary shares. The depositary will be the holder of the shares underlying your ADSs. As a holder of ADSs, you will have ADS holder rights. A deposit agreement among us, the depositary and you, as an ADS holder, and the beneficial owners of ADSs set out ADR holder rights as well as the rights and obligations of the depositary. New York law governs the deposit agreement and the ADRs. </font>

Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among owners on account of exchange restrictions or the date of delivery of any ADSs or otherwise.

The depositary may withhold any such distribution of ADRs if it has not received satisfactory assurances from us that such distribution does not require registration under the Securities Act or is exempt from registration under the provisions of such Securities Act. In lieu of delivering fractional ADSs in the event of any such dividend or free distribution, the depositary will sell the amount of shares represented by the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds in accordance with the deposit agreement.

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Nevertheless, a final judgment for the payment of money rendered by any federal or state court in the United States based on civil liability, whether or not predicated solely upon the U.S. federal securities laws, would be recognized and enforced in France provided that a French judge considers that this judgment meets the French legal requirement concerning the recognition and the enforcement of foreign judgments and is capable of being immediately enforced in the United States. A French court is therefore likely to grant the enforcement of a foreign judgment without a review of the merits of the underlying claim, only if (i)&#160;that judgment was rendered by a court having jurisdiction over the matter as the dispute is clearly connected to the jurisdiction of such court, the choice of the U.S. court was not fraudulent and the French courts did not have exclusive jurisdiction over the matter, (ii)&#160;the judgment does not contravene international public policy rules, as applied by French courts, whether such rules pertain to the merits or to the procedure of the case, including any defense rights, (iii)&#160;the judgment is not tainted with fraud and (iv)&#160;the judgment does not conflict with a French judgment or a foreign judgment (or an arbitral award) which has become effective in France. In addition, French law guarantees full compensation for the harm suffered but is limited to the actual damages, so the victim does not suffer or benefit from the situation, it being specified that under French law, the principle of awarding punitive damages is not, </font><font style="font-style:italic;letter-spacing:0.2pt;">per se</font><font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">, contrary to public order, provided the amount awarded is not disproportionate to the harm suffered and the defendant&#8217;s breach. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">As a result, the enforcement, by U.S. investors, of any judgments obtained in U.S. courts in civil and commercial matters, including judgments under the U.S. federal securities law against us or members of our Board of Directors, officers or certain experts named herein who are residents of France or countries other than the United States would be subject to the above conditions. </font>

          <font style="letter-spacing:0.2pt;">Finally, there may be doubt as to whether a French court would impose civil liability on us, the members of our Board of Directors, our officers or certain experts named herein in an original action predicated solely upon the U.S. federal securities laws brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in France against us or such members, officers or experts, respectively. </font>
