This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.

Animal Exploitation
Since Mar 12, 2026

PROCEPT BioRobotics Corporation manufactures and markets the AquaBeam Robotic System, a surgical device that uses a high-velocity saline stream to resect prostate tissue. The system is designed for and marketed for performing transurethral prostate procedures. The company's business model is built on the commercial exploitation of animals, as its regulatory clearance and ongoing product development rely on animal testing. The AquaBeam system's 510(k) clearance by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration was predicated on preclinical studies conducted in animal models, a standard industry practice for surgical devices. As a medical robotics company, its product pipeline and future iterations of its surgical technology will necessitate further animal experimentation to demonstrate safety and efficacy for new indications or design modifications. The company derives 100% of its revenue from this product platform, making animal exploitation central to its core commercial activity.

Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.

This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
