Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Contract Manufacturing Agreement

On March 17, 2025, AVITA Medical Americas, LLC (“AVITA Medical”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of AVITA Medical, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a contract manufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) with Stedical Scientific, Inc. (“Stedical Scientific”) to manufacture PermeaDerm® Biosynthetic Wound Matrix (“PermeaDerm”) in the United States. PermeaDerm is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration as a transparent biosynthetic wound matrix for use in the treatment of a variety of wound types until healing is achieved.

Under the terms of the Manufacturing Agreement, AVITA Medical will manufacture PermeaDerm in the United States for the purposes of (i) sale in the United States under the terms of the existing Distribution Agreement (defined below) and (ii) sale to Stedical Scientific for sale or distribution outside the United States. The term of the Manufacturing Agreement is ten years.

Amendment Two to the Exclusive Distribution Agreement

 

On March 17, 2025, AVITA Medical and Stedical Scientific entered into an Amendment Two (the “Amendment”) of their existing exclusive distribution agreement under which AVITA Medical distributes PermeaDerm in the United States (the “Distribution Agreement”).

 

Under the terms of the Amendment, AVITA Medical's share of revenue from PermeaDerm sales increases from 50% to 60% and Stedical Scientific becomes eligible for certain milestone payments conditioned upon AVITA Medical's achievement of specified sales targets. The Amendment revises the initial term of the Distribution Agreement to ten years from the date of the Amendment.
