    Toronto, Ontario – TheNewswire - July 11, 2025 –Ventripoint Diagnostics Ltd. (“Ventripoint” or the“Corporation”),(TSXV:VPT) is pleased to announce that it has signed a non-binding termsheet with Lishman Global Inc. outlining the exclusive ,non-transferable license of Ventripoint technology for use withinLishman’s echocardiography image platform in the People’s Republicof China including the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong andMacao (the “Territory”).

    Previously, Lishman’s Chinese subsidiary had received CFDA approval and a Certificate of Production(CoP) from the CFDA in the People’s Republic of China forthe VMS+ product used foranalysis of the right ventricle (RV) only of the heart. The subsidiary has a GMP certifiedmanufacturing facility in China that is able to produce at a scalecapable of addressing the Chinese market.

    Upon execution, the new license will enable
    Lishman and its subsidiaries to fully integrate
    VMS+ 4.0 within its cart-based and hybrid echocardiography platforms
    and to market the technology within the Territory. The final license
    will specify annual minimum volumes once CFDA approval has been
    secured. Lishman has placed a purchase order for VMS+ components
    needed to support the manufacture of systems sufficient to support
    validation of the product and submission to CFDA.  Lishman has
    committed to an investment into Ventripoint.


    “We appreciate the ongoing commitment of our Chinese
    partners to VMS+,” stated Hugh MacNaught, President and CEO.
     “Heart disease remains the number one healthcare issue in China
    with nearly twice the rate of hospital admissions for cardiovascular
    conditions than in North America.  China has a higher rate of use of
    echocardiograms than in North America and is expected to benefit from
    both the performance improvements inherent to VMS+ that enable greater
    accuracy of echo studies and the ability of the system to work with
    sparse data that should reduce the number of repeat studies. Upon CFDA
    approval all 32,000 hospitals in China and its territories will gain
    awareness of a 2D echocardiography system that generates volumetric
    results with similar levels of accuracy to cMRI.”


    “We are looking forward to working closely with
    Ventripoint to integrate VMS+ within our platforms, secure CFDA
    approval, and actively market our solution to the Chinese clinical
    community” stated Paul Gibson, CTO of Lishman.


    Pre-marketing efforts are underway in the Chinese
    market with the objective of establishing a presence within each of
    the 22 provinces plus the Special Administrative Regions within the
    country. There are over 2,500 Tier 1 hospitals and a total of 32,000
    hospitals, with over 1,000 new hospitals currently under
    construction.
