Asiakkaat
Pulmonx sells primarily to hospitals, interventional pulmonologists, and distributors that support bronchoscopic lung volume reduction procedures. Demand depends on physician adoption, hospital program development, reimbursement access, and the number of patients identified as eligible for treatment. The company also works with patient advocacy and education channels to expand awareness among COPD patients and referring clinicians.

Influence demand through diagnosis, referral, and awareness of minimally invasive treatment options.
Strategia
Pulmonx is focused on expanding Zephyr Valve adoption by building hospital programs, training physicians, and increasing patient awareness in severe emphysema. It also seeks to broaden its addressable market through clinical evidence, regulatory work, and next-generation products such as AeriSeal, while extending commercial reach in international markets where reimbursement is established or improving.
The core growth lever is broader physician and hospital adoption of Zephyr Valve therapy.
Coverage and published outcomes are critical for hospital uptake and payer acceptance.
International markets provide additional procedure volume but require local execution and reimbursement readiness.
Pipeline expansion can increase the addressable market and reduce reliance on one product family.
Maantiede
Q1/2026Pulmonx is headquartered in the United States and sells through a direct commercial organization there, while international markets use a mix of direct and distributor-based sales. Management discloses meaningful revenue from both the United States and international markets, with international sales spanning Europe, Asia Pacific, and other select countries. Geography matters because reimbursement, physician training, and regulatory approval differ by market and affect adoption speed.

Riskit
Pulmonx is exposed to adoption risk because its business depends heavily on one core therapy, physician training, and hospital program development. It also faces reimbursement, regulatory, clinical evidence, and international execution risks, all of which can slow procedure growth or limit market access. As a medical device company, it must also manage product liability, cybersecurity, and foreign exchange exposure across markets.
