NEFECON Included in 2024 KDIGO Clinical Practice Guidelines

HONG KONG, Oct 2, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Recently, Everest Medicines has announced another positive development. The company’s lead product, NEFECON, as the only in-disease IgA nephropathy (IgAN) treatment, has been included in the “KDIGO 2024 Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management Of Immunoglobulin A Nephropathy (IgAN) and Immunoglobulin A Vasculitis (IgAV) (Public Review Draft)” (hereinafter referred to as the “New Guidelines (Draft)”), recommending treatment with a 9-month course of NEFECON for patients who are at risk of progressive kidney function loss with IgAN (2B). This significant milestone further solidifies Everest Medicines' leadership in the treatment of IgAN and brings new hope to IgAN patients worldwide.NEFECON Ushering in a New Era of Standardized Treatment of IgA NephropathyAccording to the New Guidelines, NEFECON is the only treatment to date proven to reduce levels of pathogenic forms of IgA and IgA immune complexes. The inclusion of NEFECON in the New Guidelines Draft solidifies NEFECON as the first-line cornerstone in the treatment of IgAN, ushering in a new era of standardized treatment. With the imminent release of China’s first-ever IgAN guidelines, NEFECON is expected to be recommended as the first-line treatment for IgAN patients at risk of disease progression, further reinforcing its pivotal role in clinical practice.According to Everest Medicines’ recent financial reports, NEFECON has generated RMB 167.3 million in sales revenue just over a month after its commercial launch and first prescription in mainland China in May 2024, demonstrating strong market demand. NEFECON has been commercially launched in mainland China, Macau, and Singapore, and has also been approved in Hong Kong. The New Drug Application (NDA) of NEFECON has been accepted in South Korea, signaling steady progress in global commercialization.In the second half of 2024, Everest Medicines will continue to promote the sales of NEFECON in mainland China and other regions in the Asia-Pacific, while actively participating in China’s National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) negotiations to further enhance the affordability and accessibility. It is expected that 2025 will be a breakout year for NEFECON sales, with promising potential for the future.Core Products Performing Strongly, Differentiated Pipeline Further RefinedAccording to Everest Medicines’ interim results for the first half of 2024, the company’s total revenue reached RMB 301.5 million, marking a significant growth of 158% compared to the second half of 2023, and achieved commercial level profitability. The commercial launch of NEFECON has been a key driver behind this revenue growth. In addition, XERAVA (eravacycline), the world’s first-in-class fluorocycline antibiotic, also performed exceptionally well, generating RMB 134.2 million in sales in the first half of 2024. As the availability of XERAVA expands to reach more patients, its revenue is expected to grow further.Within the autoimmune disease portfolio, the lead product VELSIPITY (etrasimod) has been approved in Macau and Singapore, with plans to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) in mainland China and Hong Kong in the second half of 2024, alongside a commercial launch in Macau. Everest Medicines is expected to have three commercialized products by the end of 2024, further refining its differentiated pipeline development and driving the company into a new phase of growth.In terms of innovative R&D, Everest Medicines owns a proprietary mRNA development platform with full intellectual property and global rights, focusing on developing both preventive and therapeutic self-developed mRNA products. In August 2024, Everest announced the launch of the first-in-human Investigator-Initiated Clinical Trial (IIT) for EVM16, a personalized mRNA cancer vaccine program. Everest Medicines is anticipated to submit investigational new drug applications in the United States and China in 2025 for EVM14, a Tumor-Associated Antigens (TAA) cancer vaccine program.In addition, EVER001, a next-generation covalent reversible BTK inhibitor, with global rights, is under development for the treatment of renal diseases worldwide. The company is expected to announce the topline results of its Phase 1b study in membranous nephropathy in the second half of 2024.With the company’s dual-engine strategy of in-house discovery and global in-licensing, Everest Medicines continues to expand its product pipeline and drive business growth. The company maintains its revenue guidance of RMB 700 million for 2024 and remains confident in achieving cash flow break-even by the end of 2025.With NEFECON being included in multiple authoritative domestic and international treatment guidelines, along with the ongoing R&D and promotion of numerous core products. Everest Medicines has once again demonstrated its leading position in the global biopharmaceutical field. Armed with its robust pipeline and continuous innovative R&D capabilities, the company is steadily advancing towards becoming a top-tier player in the global pharmaceutical industry.

花房集团复牌命悬一线 ACN Newswire

花房集团复牌命悬一线

香港, 2024年10月2日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 拥有直播平台花椒和六间房的花房集团(03611)即将触发香港证券交易退市政策红线,若公司连续停牌18个月,将被视为自愿退市。花房集团自2023年4月因被投资公司调查而停牌以来,已达17个月。停牌期间花房集团的业务并未受影响,2024年半年报显示,集团期内总收益为9.65亿元(人民币,下同),股东应占溢利3448.9万元,同比大增105%。其中海外社交网络收益更是同比增长9.8%至1.39亿元。目前花房集团已向港交所提交复牌文件,若通过港交所审核,花房集团将成为今年第一个实现自救,成功复牌的停牌上市公司。2022年12月12日花房集团正式登陆香港联合交易所。(资料图片)根据港交所最新数据显示,截至7月31日,2024年除牌公司25家,已获上市委员会批准的除牌公司6家,还有高达79家上市公司处于长期停牌状态。仔细分析被除牌的25家上市公司,有几个特征:一是市值较小,二是大部分属于消费行业,且无实质性经营业务,没有足够的业绩支撑其上市地位,有「养壳」之嫌。与很多停牌上市公司业务「摆烂」不同,花房集团在众多停牌公司中显然是个异类。8月26日花房集团公布2024年中期业绩报告显示,报告期内,花房集团国内直播及音频社交网络业务收益达8.13亿元。虽然受停牌影响业务有所下滑,但花椒和六间房在直播平台市场的占有率一直靠前。记者打开花椒直播和六间房网,均能正常观看直播。在六间房网的「关于我们」介绍里表示,六间房是首批文化部授权的「网络演出试点单位」之一,总注册用户已达6000万,网站拥有签约艺人25万,日演艺总时长超过5万小时。与此同时,花房集团海外社交业务展现出强劲的增长势头。中报显示,花房集团海外社交网络收益同比增长9.8%至1.39亿元,其中海外社交业务的HOLLA Group上半年收益达1.5亿元,规模暂不及内地直播业务,但其除税前可呈报部分利润达4231.3万元,相较于集团业务总和的7109.7万元,占比高达59.5%。花房集团认为,这一增长主要得益于集团海外业务对其核心市场如北美市场的精准定位,以及旗下HOLLA、MONKEY等产品在全球范围内的用户规模扩张。记者进入Google市场看到,旗下专注于北美市场的视频社交软件MONKEY下载量已达1000万以上,颇受美国年轻人喜欢。值得留意的是,截至2024年6月30日,花房集团的现金及现金等价物约为人民币19.3亿元,现金流可谓充裕。今年5月花房集团收到港交所复牌指引,7月2日,花房集团再次发布公告表示,将向联交所递交经更新复牌建议书,以证明本公司已达成复牌指引所载有关恢复本公司股份买卖的条件。花房集团可谓含着「金汤匙」出生,互联网「红衣教主」周鸿祎作为花房集团的实际控制人通过奇虎360、花椒壹号及花椒贰号控制花房集团约36.46%的股权。花房集团的第二大股东是宋城演艺,通过其全资附属公司Global Bacchus Limited持股花房集团约35.35%的股权。受经济大环境影响,花房集团两大股东的日子并不好过,周鸿祎担任董事长三六零安全科技股份有限公司刚发布的2024年中报显示,上半年凈现金流为-67.45亿元,同比下滑518.03%。受花房集团停牌影响,宋城演艺甚至已经在2023年财报中计提了巨额的长期股权投资减值准备,导致公司凈利润出现亏损。2024年中报显示,宋城演艺凈现金流为2.66亿元。两大股东的现金流都不如花房集团19.3亿元充裕。表面上看,如果花房集团退市,那么周鸿祎和宋城演艺两大股东将蒙受极大损失。可是在花房集团拥有19.3亿元现金的情况下,如果退市,两大股东或成最大赢家。一旦启动退市流程,不论是私有化还是彻底退市,周鸿祎和宋城演艺两大股东都将掌握着19.3亿元现金的分配权,花房集团现金被分配后,料将极大缓解两大股东的现金流问题,特别是对周鸿祎而言,一旦获得花房集团的现金流,将极大地改善其财务状况。对于中小投资者而言,最不愿看到的结果是花房集团退市,被锁定了18个月流动性的资金或将一无所获,由于退市涉及清盘等复杂程序,想要拿回投资款同样要经过复杂的法律程序,对于何时能够拿回投资款以及能否拿回投资款都存在极大的不确定性。如今,花房集团已经站在了能否复盘的十字路口,如果在港交所最后期限花房集团递交文件无法通过审核,花房集团将不得不面临私有化或者退市风险,那么对中小股东而言都是最坏的结果。目前,花房集团还在等待港交所最后的审核结果,对于有真实业务有现金流积极争取复盘的停牌上市公司,交易所在复牌审核上也应该有新的标准,不该像对待「殭尸」上市公司那样「一刀切」,让其一退了之。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

The drilling program will expand the mineral resource, infill areas with limited drill data, and extend the lateral and depth boundaries of the existing resource envelope, which remains open in all directions and at depth.The 2024 drill targets recognize the mineral resource block model from the recently completed Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) and will increase the mineral resource and upgrade the confidence level of the resource categories. The drilling has met expectations, with visual results aligning with and confirming the block model's projections. The Hat deposit hosts several critical minerals as defined in the Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy, including copper, cobalt and, potentially, scandium, and possibly others.Farshad Shirvani, president & CEO of Doubleview, commented, "Year by year, the size of the Hat deposit has been increased by very targeted drilling, bringing it to a footprint of about 1.5km x 1.38km. Our technical and management team has excelled in this endeavor. Furthermore, we've discovered numerous additional elements within the Hat deposit that may become significant and enhance the resource: the Hat deposit may be unique among British Columbia's many. Recent moves by the governments of Canada and British Columbia in recognize the importance of critical minerals and announce targeted infrastructure investments in support of our industry and the many communities and businesses that directly benefit."Selected Drill Results Prior to 2024 Exploration:Every year Doubleview releases details of the year's drilling and activities. The Company website maintains all relevant information. Visual estimates indicate that 2024 drilling has exceeded expectations and will further validate the resource model and increase the dimensions of the mineral resource envelope. Table 1 provides previously announced key intersections, including copper equivalents and selected significant intercepts.

Q2 Metals Drills 215.6m at 1.69% Li2O including 64.6m at 2.29% Li2O at the Cisco Lithium Property, James Bay, Quebec, Canada

Highlights:Strong analytical results from the inaugural drilling campaign for Q2 Metals include:CS-24-018: Widest interval of215.6 m at 1.69% Li2O, including 64.6 m at 2.29% Li2O.CS-24-011: Widest interval of 81.8 m at 1.17% Li2O.CS-24-013: Widest interval of 59.5 m at 1.18% Li2O.Core assay results remain to be reported on six (6) additional drill holes completed during the Summer 2024 Drill Campaign.Q2 Metals Corp. (TSXV:QTWO)(OTCQB:QUEXF)(FSE:458) ("Q2" or the "Company") is pleased to report the core assay results on drill holes CS-24-011 to CS-24-016 and CS-24-018 from the Spring 2024 Drill Campaign at the Cisco Lithium Property (the "Property" or the "Cisco Property") located within the greater Nemaska traditional territory of the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, Canada. All drill holes intersected pegmatite with visual indications of spodumene mineralization identified."These assays continue to validate the potential and scale of the Cisco Property as that of a larger mineralized system," stated Neil McCallum, Vice President Exploration of the Company. "One important observation of these results is the higher-grade nature of the larger mineralized system as we test and track the system progressing to the south.""We are extremely pleased with these assay results, which continue to demonstrate the world-class nature of the Cisco Project," said Alicia Milne, President and Chief Executive Officer of Q2 Metals. "It is difficult to ignore the significance of what we've discovered at Cisco and our team is committed to continuing to unlock Cisco's full potential."A total of 6,359.7 metres ("m") was drilled over 17 holes during the Spring and Summer 2024 Drill Campaigns.The analytical results reported herein represent 2,318.4 m of drilling over seven (7) holes during the drill campaigns with core assay results remaining to be reported on six (6) additional drill holes that were completed.Complete highlighted intervals from holes CS-24-011 to 016 and CA-24-018 are summarized in Table 1 and represented in Figure 1, with two cross sections in Figures 2 and 3.Figure 1. Map of Recent Drill Hole Analytical Results at Cisco PropertyDrills holes CS-24-011 to CS-24-015 targeted the extension of the CO1 outcrop area towards the CO3 outcrop area.Drill hole CS-24-011 was the most significant interval near CO1, which returned results of 81.8 m of 1.17% Li2O. The hole was a 70 m westward step out from previously reported drill holes CS-24-009 and 010 which had similar results of 82.1 m of 1.43% Li2O and 120.3 m of 1.72% Li2O, respectively (Figure 1 and Cross Section A- Figure 2).As seen in the Cross Section B (Figure 3), many of the western drill holes (CS-24-012 to 015) had several narrower intervals between three (3) and 30 m wide (see Table 1). Drill hole CS-24-016 tested directly below the CO1 outcrop to understand the continuity of mineralization in that region, with 15.8 m of 1.33% Li2O.Drill hole CS-24-018 is the first hole with analytical results to confirm the large, mineralized zone to the south with results of 215.6 m at 1.69% Li2O, including 64.6 m at 2.29% Li2O. The wide mineralized zone in drill hole CS-24-018 is at a depth of between 130 and 270 m vertically below the surface, with the first significant mineralized interval at a depth of only 35 m vertically below the surface.Figure 2. Cross Section A (looking northeast)Figure 3. Cross Section B (looking northeast)Table 1. Summary of Analytical Results of Spring Drill Holes at Cisco PropertyAll intervals of greater than 2 m of core-length are included in the table. Internal dilution of non-pegmatite material was limited to intervals of less than 5 m. No specific grade cap or lower cut-offs were used during grade and width calculations. All intervals are reported as core widths and mineralized intervals in all the holes drilled thus far are not representative of the true width as the modelled pegmatite zones are being refined with every additional hole. Drill hole collar information has been previously reported for each drill hole reported herein and is also available at: https://www.q2metals.com/property/cisco-lithium-property/.Due to the Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) protocols in place by both the Company and the analytical laboratory (SGS Canada), drill hole CS-24-017 was re-submitted for testing. Results will be reported when received and reviewed by the Company.About the Cisco PropertyThe Cisco Property is comprised of 222 mineral claims and is 11,374 hectares in size. It is located less than 10 kilometres ("km") east of the Billy Diamond Highway, and is approximately 150 km north of Matagami, a small town that contains the closest rail link to much of James Bay. The Property lies within the greater Nemaska Community lands of the Eeyou Istchee Territory, James Bay, Quebec.The Property is situated along the Frotet Evans Greenstone Belt, comprised of a volcanic package dominated by mafic to felsic metavolcanic rocks, of the southern James Bay Lithium District, the same belt that hosts the Sirmac and Moblan lithium deposits, located 130 km and 180 km away, respectively.Sampling, Analytical Methods and QA/QC ProtocolsAll drill core samples were shipped to SGS Canada's preparation facility in Val D'Or, Quebec, for standard sample preparation (code PRP92) which includes drying at 105°C, crushing to 90% passing 2 mm, riffle split 500 g, and pulverize 85% passing 75 microns. The pulps are then shipped by air to SGS Canada's laboratory in Burnaby, BC, where the samples are homogenized and subsequently analyzed for multi-element (including Li and Ta) using sodium peroxide fusion with ICP-AES/MS finish (code GE_ICM91A50). The reported Li grade was reported by SGS Canada as lithium oxide (Li2O). Drill core was saw-cut with half-core sent for geochemical analysis and half-core remaining in the box for reference. The same side of the core was sampled to maintain representativeness.A Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC) protocol following industry best practices was incorporated into the sampling program. Measures include the systematic insertion of quartz blanks and certified reference materials (CRMs) into sample batches at a rate of approximately 5% each. Additionally, analysis of pulp-split and reject-split duplicates was completed to assess analytical precision. The QP has verified the QA/QC results of the analytical work.Qualified PersonNeil McCallum, B.Sc., P.Geol, is a registered permit holder with the Ordre des Géologues du Québec and Qualified Person as defined by NI 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information in this news release.
