EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 31, 2026, LENSAR, Inc. (the “Company”) filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (“Original Form 10-K”). The Original Form 10-K omitted portions of Part III, Items 10 (Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance), 11 (Executive Compensation), 12 (Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters), 13 (Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence), and 14 (Principal Accountant Fees and Services) in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which provides that such information may be either incorporated by reference from the registrant’s definitive proxy statement or included in an amendment to Form 10-K, in either case, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) not later than 120 days after the end of the Company’s fiscal year.

We no longer expect that the definitive proxy statement for our 2026 annual meeting of stockholders will be filed within 120 days of December 31, 2025. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (“Amendment”) is being filed solely to:

•

amend and restate Part III, Items 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of the Original Form 10-K to include the information required by such Items;

•

delete the reference on the cover of the Original Form 10-K to the incorporation by reference of portions of our proxy statement into Part III of the Original Form 10-K; and

•

file new certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as exhibits to this Amendment under Item 15 of Part IV hereof, pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Because no financial statements are contained within this Amendment, we are not including certifications pursuant to Section 906 of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

This Amendment does not otherwise change or update any of the disclosures set forth in the Original Form 10-K and does not otherwise reflect any events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 10-K. Accordingly, the Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and the Company’s filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Form 10-K. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined are defined as set forth in the Original Form 10-K.

Unless otherwise stated or the context requires otherwise, references to “LENSAR,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our,” refer to LENSAR, Inc., and references to “common stock” refer to our common stock, par value $0.01 per share.

We believe Ms. Weisner is qualified to serve on our Board of Directors because of her extensive in-house legal and compliance experience with different medical device companies, including an in-depth understanding of regulatory and reimbursement issues, intellectual property, corporate governance, risk management, corporate transactions, human resources, and internal audit.

Gary M. Winer has served as a member of our Board of Directors since April 2018.

In connection with North Run’s investment in the Company in May 2023, we agreed to increase the size of our Board from seven to nine directors following our annual meeting of stockholders held in 2023 and agreed to provide North Run with continuing director designation rights based on its beneficial ownership of our common stock on an as-converted basis.

Narrative Disclosure to Compensation Tables

Annual Base Salary

We pay our named executive officers a base salary to compensate them for the satisfactory performance of services rendered to us. The base salary payable to each named executive officer is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive’s skill set, experience, role and responsibilities. Base salaries for our named executive officers have generally been set at levels deemed necessary to attract and retain individuals with superior talent.

Bonus Compensation

Each year our Board of Directors establishes a performance-based annual bonus program for our employees and our named executive officers based on individual performance, company performance or as otherwise determined appropriate.

Each named executive officer has an established target annual bonus amount. The target annual bonus amounts for each named executive officer, expressed as a percentage of annual base salary, are 75%, 55% and 50% for Messrs. Curtis, Connaughton and Staab, respectively.

In March 2026, our Board of Directors approved cash bonus payments for the 2025 fiscal year to be paid to the named executive officers. Bonus payments were paid at target.

Other Elements of Compensation

Perquisites, Health, Welfare and Retirement Benefits

Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans, including our medical, dental, vision, group life, disability and accidental death and dismemberment insurance plans, in each case on the generally on same basis as all of our other employees. We provide a 401(k) plan to our employees, including our current named executive officers, as discussed in the section below entitled “401(k) Plan.”

We generally do not provide perquisites or personal benefits to our named executive officers, except in limited circumstances. Our Board of Directors may elect to adopt qualified or non-qualified benefit plans in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.

401(k) Plan

Our employees participate in a defined contribution employee retirement plan, or 401(k) plan. Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same basis as other eligible employees. The 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified plan under Section 401(k) of the Code. The 401(k) plan provides that each participant may make pre-tax deferrals from his or her compensation up to the statutory limit, which was $23,500 for calendar year 2025, and other testing limits. Participants that are 50 years or older can also make “catch-up” contributions, which in calendar year 2025 could be up to an additional $7,500 above the statutory limit. We also provide a matching contribution equal to 100% of an employee’s first 3% of contributions and 50% of the next 2% of contributions. Participant contributions are held and invested, pursuant to the participant’s instructions, by the plan’s trustee.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

We have not historically maintained nonqualified defined contribution plans or other nonqualified deferred compensation plans.

Termination or Change in Control Benefits

Our executive officers may become entitled to certain benefits or enhanced benefits in connection with a qualifying termination or a change in control of our company. Each of our executive officers’ employment agreements entitles them to certain payments and benefits upon certain qualifying terminations (including in connection with a change in control of our company). For additional discussion, please see “Employment Letters with our Named Executive

Officers.” Additionally, the stock option and restricted stock unit awards granted to our named executive officers will accelerate and vest in full upon a change in control of the Company.

Clawback Policy

We have instituted a clawback policy in accordance with the Nasdaq’s final rules implementing the incentive-based compensation recovery provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, effective October 2, 2023 to support a culture of focused, diligent and responsible management that discourages conduct detrimental to our growth. The policy applies to each person who serves as an executive officer of the Company, as defined in Rule 10D-1(d) under the Exchange Act, which include our named executive officers (each, a “covered employee”). In the event of a qualifying financial restatement, a covered employee will be required to forfeit erroneously awarded incentive compensation to the Company to the extent required under applicable law.

Equity Award Timing Policies and Practices

Equity awards to employees are typically granted in connection with the Company annual award process in the first half of each year, as well as to new hires in connection with their commencement of employment. We do not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information, and we do not time the release of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation. For all stock option awards, the exercise price is the closing price of our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of the grant (or if the grant date is not a trading day, then on the immediately preceding trading day). During 2024, we did not grant stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar option-like instruments to our named executive officers.

Director Compensation

We provide compensation to our non-employee directors in the form of cash and stock-based compensation. We have reimbursed, and will continue to reimburse, our non-employee directors for their actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with attending board meetings.

Pursuant to our non-employee director compensation program, our non-employee directors receive annual retainer fees and/or long-term equity awards. Under the non-employee director compensation program, each non-employee director receives an annual retainer of $50,000, with the chairperson receiving an annual retainer of $75,000. Non-employee directors serving as the chairs of the audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees receive additional annual retainers of $20,000, $15,000 and $9,000, respectively. Non-employee directors serving as members of the audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees receive additional annual retainers of $10,000, $7,000 and $4,500, respectively.

Non-employee directors who are newly elected or appointed to our Board of Directors will receive initial stock option awards having a value of $200,000, calculated based on the Black-Scholes value on the grant date, vesting over three years with one-third of such options vesting on the first anniversary of the date of such election or appointment to the Board of Directors and the remainder vesting in equal monthly installments over the remaining two years thereafter.

During 2025, our non-employee directors were eligible for annual equity awards. Given we did not hold an annual meeting until December 2025, the annual awards to the non-employee directors were granted in May 2025, at the time the annual meeting would typically have been held. On the grant date, each non-employee director received an annual RSU award having a value of $100,000, calculated based on the closing price per share for our common stock on the grant date, which vests on the first anniversary of the grant date.

All equity awards granted to our non-employee directors will vest upon a change in control of our company or upon a director’s death or disability. Compensation under our non-employee director compensation policy is subject to the annual limits on non-employee director compensation set forth in the 2020 Plan. Our Board of Directors or its authorized committee may modify the non-employee director compensation program from time to time in the exercise of its business judgment, taking into account such factors, circumstances and considerations as it shall deem relevant from time to time, subject to the annual limit on non-employee director compensation set forth in the 2020 Plan. As provided in the 2020 Plan, our Board of Directors or its authorized committee may make exceptions to this limit for individual non-employee directors in extraordinary circumstances, as the Board of Directors or its authorized committee may determine in its discretion, provided that the non-employee director receiving such additional

compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation or in other compensation decisions involving non-employee directors.

The following table summarizes compensation received by our non-employee directors during the year ended December 31, 2025. Nicholas T. Curtis is not included in the following table as he served as an executive officer during 2025 and does not receive compensation for his board service. Mr. Curtis’s compensation is included in the Summary Compensation Table in the “Executive Compensation” section above.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.

The following table sets forth information relating to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of April 28, 2026 by:

•

each person, or group of affiliated persons, known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our common stock outstanding;

•

each of our directors;

•

each of our named executive officers for 2025; and

•

all directors and executive officers as a group.

The number of shares beneficially owned by each stockholder is determined under rules issued by the SEC. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial” owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. Except as indicated in the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the individuals and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock beneficially owned by them, subject to any applicable community property laws.

The number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by our directors and executive officers includes shares that such persons have the right to acquire within 60 days of April 28, 2026, including through the exercise of stock options and warrants, the vesting of restricted stock units and the conversion of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, as noted in the table footnotes.

Unless otherwise indicated below, the business address for each beneficial owner listed is c/o LENSAR, Inc., 2800 Discovery Drive, Orlando, Florida 32826.

(2)

Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote, and each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock entitles its holder to a number of votes equal to the whole number of shares of common stock into which a share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock can be converted.

The beneficial ownership information shown in the table under “Common Stock” includes the number of shares of common stock held by such holder, as well as shares of our common stock such holder could acquire within 60 days of April 28, 2026, including by converting shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, exercising warrants or options, or upon settlement of restricted stock units. The beneficial ownership information shown in the table under “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” reflects the maximum number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock that may be converted into common stock (assuming that no Warrants have been exercised). Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is currently convertible into a number of shares

of common stock based on the stated value of such share and any declared and unpaid dividends divided by an initial conversion price of $2.51875.

The percentage reported under “Combined Voting Power” represents the holder’s voting power with respect to all of our shares of common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of April 28, 2026, voting as a single class, and, as to each holder, without including any shares of common stock that such holder could acquire by exercising warrants or options or upon vesting of restricted stock units, as such securities confer no voting power until the issuance of common stock upon their exercise or settlement, as applicable.

Percentage of common stock beneficially owned are based upon the 12,104,328 shares of our common stock that were outstanding on April 28, 2026.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

Our Board of Directors recognizes that transactions with related persons present a heightened risk of conflicts of interests and/or improper valuation (or the perception thereof). Our Board has adopted a written policy on transactions with related persons, which requires that our audit committee approve or ratify “related person transactions” (as defined in the policy) that are required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K requires disclosure, subject to certain exceptions, of transactions in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000 (or such other amount is applicable while we remain a smaller reporting company) and in which any “related person” as defined under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K had or will have a direct or indirect material interest. It is our policy that a director not participate in the approval of a related person transaction as to which he or she is a “related person.” Each of the “related person transactions” described

herein entered into following the adoption of our related person transaction policy was approved in accordance with such policy.

North Run Investment

We are party to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of May 12, 2024 with NR-GRI Partners, LP (the “Buyer”), a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of North Run, pursuant to which Buyer acquired, for an aggregate gross purchase price of $20.0 million, (i) an aggregate of 20,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”), which are initially convertible into 7,940,446 shares of common stock (the “Conversion Shares”), and (ii) Class A Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Class B Common Stock Purchase Warrants (together, the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 4,367,246 shares of common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) (such transactions, collectively, the “Private Placement”).

The Purchase Agreement provides North Run with continuing director designation rights based on North Run’s beneficial ownership of common stock on an as-converted basis. North Run currently has the right to designate two directors, and Thomas B. Ellis and Todd B. Hammer have been appointed as such designees.

In addition, so long as North Run beneficially owns least 20% of the Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares underlying the Preferred Shares and Warrants issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, North Run will have a right to participate on a pro rata basis in equity financings or issuances of securities convertible, exercisable, or exchangeable into equity securities of the Company or any subsidiaries in capital-raising transactions (including debt securities with an equity component), subject to certain exceptions.

As of April 28, 2026, Mr. Ellis, Mr. Hammer and North Run beneficially owned approximately 55% of our common stock. See Item 12. “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters” for additional information.

Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law. Further, pursuant to our indemnification agreements and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, our directors and executive officers are indemnified and insured against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances.

Director Independence

Under our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the applicable Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) rules (the “Nasdaq rules”), a director is not independent unless the Board affirmatively determines that he or she does not have a direct or indirect material relationship with us or any of our subsidiaries. In addition, the director must not be precluded from qualifying as independent under the per se bars set forth by the Nasdaq rules.

Our Board has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of our directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that none of Mr. Ellis, Mr. Hammer, Dr. Lindstrom, Dr. Link, Ms. O’Farrell, Ms. Weisner and Mr. Winer, representing seven of our eight directors, has a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors qualifies as “independent” as that term is defined under the Nasdaq rules. In making these determinations, our Board considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with us and all other facts and circumstances our Board deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the director’s beneficial ownership of our common stock.

All Other Fees

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The formal written charter for our audit committee requires that the audit committee pre-approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm, other than services approved in accordance with appropriate pre-approval policies established by the audit committee and applicable SEC rules.

The audit committee’s policy generally provides that the audit committee will not engage an independent registered public accounting firm to render any audit, audit-related, tax or permissible non-audit service unless the service is either (i) explicitly approved by the audit committee or (ii) entered into pursuant to the pre-approval policies and procedures. Unless a type of service to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm has received this latter general pre-approval under the pre-approval policy, it requires specific pre-approval by the audit committee. Without limiting the foregoing, the audit committee may delegate authority to one or more independent members of the committee to grant pre-approvals of audit and permitted non-audit services, and any such pre-approvals must be presented to the audit committee at its next scheduled meeting.

All of the services listed in the table above were preapproved by our audit committee.
