Cybin Inc. (NEO: CYBN) Targets Major Depressive Disorder with Breakthrough Therapy

 

• Oregon is first state to permit supervised use of psilocybin, signaling shift in stigma
• CYBN entering phase 2 of clinical study of sublingual psilocybin for the potential treatment of MDD
• Newly discoverable data from psychedelic studies may potentially create entirely new marketplace of safe and effective drugs

Cybin (NEO: CYBN), a mushroom life sciences company, is working to become the first to bring a psilocybin drug to market targeting major depressive disorder (“MDD”). According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than 18 million people in the United States — and 300 million people worldwide — experience major depression. Psilocybin has become a focus for academic institutions and companies whose clinical studies have been showing the effectiveness of psychedelics in mental health treatment. The stigmas around mushrooms are beginning to fade.

Most cities have decriminalized psilocybin, but Oregon is the first to permit supervised use statewide (https://nnw.fm/5evVD). The passing of Measure 109 does not legalize the everyday use of psychedelic mushrooms but instead enables the regulated use of the shrooms in a therapeutic setting. Over the next two years, regulatory details will be worked out, including the qualifications required for therapists to use the mushrooms. The Oregon Health Authority will provide oversight for the program, and therapy recipients will undergo pre-screening, a supervised therapy session and post-use evaluation. Psilocybin is still considered a Schedule 1 drug.

Since 2018, the FDA has labeled psychedelic psilocybin a “breakthrough therapy” to treat MDD (https://nnw.fm/ENCOZ). This designation fast tracks the substance for clinical studies and for promising therapies that treat serious or life-threatening conditions and provide therapeutic benefits over available treatments (https://nnw.fm/yheiN).

On Nov. 4, 2020, John Hopkins Medicine researchers published their latest psilocybin study in “JAMA Psychiatry.” According to Alan Davis, PhD and adjunct assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at John Hopkins University School of Medicine, the results could be a game-changer (https://nnw.fm/01gv5).

“The magnitude of the effect we saw was about four times larger than what clinical trials have shown for traditional antidepressants on the market,” said Davis. “Because most other depression treatments take weeks or months to work and may have undesirable effects, this could be a game changer if these findings hold up in future ‘gold-standard’ placebo-controlled clinical trials.”

Cybind is at the forefront of companies conducting clinical trials and is entering phase 2 of its clinical study of sublingual psilocybin for the potential treatment of MDD at the beginning of 2021. The study’s objectives are to determine the appropriate dosing, evaluate clinical efficacy, and assess the safety and tolerability of psilocybin.

The company seeks to partner with esteemed individuals and institutions leading the way in the research and development of pharmaceutical uses of psilocybin. This desire led to a partnership with the Toronto Centre for Psychedelic Science (“TCPS”) where some of the first academic research on micro dosing was published (https://nnw.fm/Ota4L). Both Cybin and TCPS have high standards for scientific rigor and transparency. CYBN believes that newly discoverable data from psychedelic studies can potentially create an entirely new marketplace of safe and effective drugs.

Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) Supply Agreement with Chemours Represents Commitment to Re-Establish US Rare Earth Supply Chain

 

• UUUU has signed three-year supply agreement with Chemours Company to obtain minimum 2,500 tons of rare earth and uranium-bearing natural monazite ore per year
• CEO notes company’s excitement about working with Chemours to help “reestablish U.S. rare earth production”
• Responsible production of REES, uranium from natural monazite ore is important complement to company’s existing programs

In what could be called a milestone moment in re-establishing a fully integrated REE supply chain in the United States, Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) has announced a three-year supply agreement with the Chemours Company (NYSE: CC) (https://nnw.fm/8zVLu). The agreement calls for Energy Fuels to receive a minimum of 2,500 tons of natural monazite ore per year, one of the highest-grade rare earth element (“REE”) minerals in the world. Energy Fuels will process this monazite at its 100%-owned White Mesa Mill in Southeast Utah to produce a marketable mixed REE carbonate.

“We are extremely excited about working with Chemours to help reestablish U.S. rare earth production,” said Energy Fuels president and CEO Mark S. Chalmers. “Chemours is a leader in the U.S. heavy mineral sands industry, and, together we are now taking an important first step in returning the REE supply chain back to the United States. We look forward to working with Chemours in the future to expand our mutual contributions to this important initiative.

“This is a proud moment for Energy Fuels, as we deploy our unique capabilities to benefit both the environment and our shareholders,” he continued. “Energy Fuels already produces uranium, which is the fuel for clean, carbon-free nuclear energy. And we periodically produce vanadium, which is used in the production of steel, aerospace alloys, and advanced grid-scale batteries used to store renewable energy. The responsible production of rare earths and uranium from natural monazite sand ores is an important clean-technology addition to those programs.”

Energy Fuels has long been an advocate for efforts made by the U.S. government to address the country’s overreliance on critical minerals needed for clean energy and advanced technologies from foreign sources and re-establish the rare earth and uranium supply chains with U.S. companies.

“Energy Fuels stands ready to do our part in bringing uranium, vanadium and rare earth element processing and production back to the United States. We have led uranium industry efforts in Washington DC over the past three years to bring the issue of mineral supply chain security to the forefront, beginning with our Uranium Section 232 Petition, in which we asked the President to impose quotas on uranium imports,” said Chalmers earlier this year (https://nnw.fm/BWnnh). “Energy Fuels strongly supports the President’s declaration of a national emergency and invoking the Defense Production Act to free up the immediate government funding required to bring uranium production back to the United States and reduce our current dependency on imports from foreign adversaries, while also helping to fund U.S. vanadium and rare earth element production.”

This supply agreement is tangible evidence of the the company’s active efforts to do all it can to bring production of these essential minerals back to the United States. This agreement should provide Energy Fuels with the natural monazite ore it needs to provide almost 10% of total current U.S. REE demand.

In addition, UUUU is seeking additional natural monazite ore from other suppliers in order to increase its production. The company has the capacity to produce approximately 50% of U.S. REE demand in a mixed REE carbonate. Energy Fuels is also working with the U.S. Department of Energy to determine the possibility of processing other types of REE and uranium-bearing ores at the White Mesa Mill.

Energy Fuels is a leading U.S.-based uranium mining company, supplying U3O8 to major nuclear utilities; the company also produces vanadium from certain of its projects, as market conditions warrant. Headquartered in Colorado, the company holds three of America’s key uranium production centers: the White Mesa Mill in Utah, the Nichols Ranch in-situ recovery (“ISR”) Project in Wyoming, and the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas. The White Mesa Mill is the only conventional uranium mill operating in the country today, has a licensed capacity of over 8 million pounds of U3O8 per year. The mill has the ability to produce vanadium when market conditions warrant and it was the largest U.S. supplier of high purity vanadium pentoxide in 2019. Energy Fuels is also completing final test-work for the production of REE carbonate from natural monazite ore, and expects to be in commercial rare earth production in 2021. The Nichols Ranch ISR Project is on standby and has a licensed capacity of 2 million pounds of U3O8 per year. The Alta Mesa ISR Project is also on standby and has a licensed capacity of 1.5 million pounds of U3O8 per year.

Sustainable Green Team Ltd. (SGTM) Profitably Transforms Hurricane Waste into Environmentally-Beneficial Organic Products

 

• Active hurricane season projected for 2021 according to recent report examining factors contributing to Atlantic basin hurricane activity
• Hurricanes cause extreme damage due to strong winds, flooding and storm surges that create large amounts of natural waste
• SGTM provides synergistic solutions to waste disposal problems created by hurricanes that benefit the environment

Not only did the 2020 hurricane season in the United States start early, but it broke records with so many storms that the National Hurricane Center used every name in its pre-determined list (https://nnw.fm/MDgcF). Meteorologists are now predicting that 2021 may be another active season that will likely result in serious repercussions on urban infrastructure and the environment (https://nnw.fm/zr48e). Sustainable Green Team (OTC: SGTM), a leading provider of environmentally-beneficial solutions for tree and storm waste disposal, will be on call to provide remediation efforts that divert natural storm waste from landfills and transform it into organic mulch products and playground surfacing material that benefit the environment.

Following a record 2020 hurricane season, 2021 is projected to be another active year, according to recently published research examining factors contributing to Atlantic basin hurricane activity. “Early indications are that 2021 could potentially be another active season,” said Phil Klotzbach a meteorologist from Colorado State University and specialist in Atlantic basin seasonal hurricane forecasts. “Right now, we have about a 50% chance of having an above-normal hurricane season.”

Hurricanes can cause extreme damage that results in physical, economic and environmental hardship. Strong winds can wield power so immense that they uproot trees and turn them into dangerous projectiles flying through the air. Accordingly, flooding can cause extreme damage to the foundations of buildings while destroying vehicles and vegetation. These two threats, however, pose moderate risks when compared to storm surges that cause the sea level to rapidly rise and then fall, decimating everything in their path as the hurricane makes its way onto land.

The consequences of these storms on people, infrastructure and the environment can be devasting, and the 2020 season was no exception. From its early start on May 14, 2020, the record-breaking season had so many storms that, for the second time in its history, the National Hurricane Center used every name in the pre-determined list and used the Greek alphabet for the remainder of the season.

SGTM played a significant role in the remediation efforts for many of these hurricanes, such as Hurricane Laura – an exceptionally violent storm that ravaged Louisiana and caused billions of dollars in damage (https://nnw.fm/9Z76K). Rather than allow the abundant tree and vegetative waste to add to the burden imposed on municipal landfills, SGTM acted quickly through its strategic partners to collect the waste and transport it to designated processing facilities for transformation into environmentally-beneficial products.

SGTM has grown and expanded throughout 2020 with numerous new contracts, strategic partnerships and operational investments that will enable the company to tackle whatever 2021 will bring its way. With a mission of protecting and serving the environment, SGTM is positioned to continue growing by offering services that transform serious problems into profits for the benefit of its clients and the communities the company serves.

Knightscope, Inc. Adds Body Temperature Detection to Robot Security Products to Help Protect Facilities

 

• The COVID-19 pandemic has sickened more than 78 million people worldwide, leading to the deaths of more than 1.7 million people
• The pandemic has hammered businesses as society has attempted to lessen human contact in order to limit the spread of the virus responsible for the illnesses, especially as a growing number of employees of the stressed companies have needed sick leave
• Autonomous Security Robot (“ASR”) developer Knightscope has enhanced its artificial intelligence-equipped sentries with elevated body temperature detection to help companies measure body temperatures of employees and visitors entering their facilities
• The feature will help client companies protect their employees from virus transmission on their premises, potentially reducing liability concerns in the process

As vaccines to combat the novel coronavirus begin to rollout across the country, Americans are acknowledging that it may take weeks or a number of months before a significant reduction of the pandemic’s threat takes place (https://nnw.fm/ys2v9).

Autonomous security developer Knightscope has noted that one benefit of its robotic security teams patrolling select businesses and agencies across five time zones is that they are “immune and have been continuing to patrol across the country despite the pandemic” (https://nnw.fm/FsKGD).

Now, the robots are also helping to provide a sense of COVID confidence by enabling elevated body temperature detection from wherever the sentries are located.

“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that a person with a temperature of 100.4 degrees or greater has a ‘fever,’ a symptom of COVID-19,” a recent Knightscope announcement states (https://nnw.fm/v7YAD). “In an effort to help combat the spread of COVID-19, Knightscope developed a way for its clients to measure body temperatures of employees and visitors entering a facility.”

The Pew Research Center reported in March that 24 percent of workers didn’t have access to any kind of paid sick leave prior to the pandemic, as noted in The Deseret News (https://nnw.fm/t4McS). Only 13 states currently require employers to offer paid sick leave. Fewer states passed temporary new measures in response to the coronavirus. But the need for sick workers to stay home if they’ve been infected means that businesses are not only under pressure as staffing levels become more critical, but also in dealing with the financial realities that their employees are wrestling with.

Knightscope’s new solution ultimately protects companies and their employees from the threat of virus transmission in the workplace as well as from the traditional external safety issues surrounding potential crime, fire and property damage matters.

“Our long-term ambition is to make the United States of America the safest country in the world,” the company’s website states.

MustGrow Biologics Corp. (CSE: MGRO) (OTCQB: MGROF) (FRA: 0C0) Reports 100% Disease Control in Banana Study

 

• MustGrow study conducted by third-party lab reports 100% control of ravaging disease
• Fusarium wilt TR4 has devastated $25-billion global banana industry
• Next step in testing will evaluate patented biopesticide technology in additional lab and field settings

MustGrow Biologics (CSE: MGRO) (OTCQB: MGROF) (FRA: 0C0) has released potentially industry-changing results for its initial Colombia laboratory test evaluating the effect of its proprietary mustard-derived organic biopesticide formulation on the disease Fusarium wilt TR4. MustGrow’s study, which was conducted and reported via third-party laboratory CyberAgrot SAS in Colombia using Instituto Colombiano Agropecuario (“ICA”) official protocols, reports 100% control of the disease (https://nnw.fm/Kk5rn).

Sometimes called the Panama disease, Fusarium wilt TR4 has devastated the $25-billion global banana industry, reaching a point where the Colombian government actually declared a state of emergency. The lab results indicate a “unique feat — a feat MustGrow believes no other agri-science team has achieved”: controlling Fusarium wilt TR4 definitively. “This laboratory work will serve as a beachhead for more advanced testing to be used to achieve registration in Colombia and other leading banana producing countries,” MustGrow stated.

In the announcement, MustGrow outlined the CyberAgrot study results. Carefully adhering to ICA official protocols, the test evaluated samples treated with MustGrow’s natural organic biopesticide as well as control samples that were left untreated. The study tested five different rates, and all data was measured after a five-day period. In all samples, MustGrow’s biopesticide showed 100% control of Fusarium wilt TR4. By contrast, all of the control samples showed Fusarium wilt TR4 still growing.

“The CyberAgrot team is very pleased with the recent laboratory results of MustGrow’s mustard-derived product,” said industry expert and CyberAgrot general manager Alexander Chajin Robles. “This work further advances MustGrow towards our shared goal of combating the Panama disease, which has devastated the Banana Industry in Colombia and across the globe. Eliminating the disease is a national priority for the Colombian government, with the disease now affecting acres in many regions of Colombia.”

The next step in testing will evaluate MustGrow’s patented biopesticide technology in the lab to refine the dose rates and then to see levels of control of Fusarium wilt TR4 in infected field settings. Fusarium wilt TR4 is the most destructive banana disease and is particularly harmful to Cavendish bananas, which are half of all bananas produced globally Once present, the disease remains viable in soil for decades and can result in complete crop loss; currently no effective treatments exist.

“MustGrow’s product achieved 100% control of Fusarium wilt TR4, and we very much look forward to now begin field trials,” said Robles. “With further success, we will advance conversations with the Colombian Agriculture regulatory body as well as the Colombian Banana Association, accelerating MustGrow’s product as the only 100% organic solution to a growing crisis.  A very exciting opportunity.”

MustGrow is an agriculture biotech company focused on providing natural, science-based biological solutions for high-value crops, including fruits and vegetables. MustGrow has designed and owns a U.S., EPA-approved natural solution that uses the mustard seed’s natural defense mechanism to protect plants from pests and diseases. More than 110 independent tests have been completed validating MustGrow’s safe and effective signature products.

The product, in granule format, is EPA-approved across many key U.S. states and by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) as a biopesticide for high-value crops such as fruit and vegetables. MustGrow has now concentrated a liquid format, called TerraMG, which, with regulatory approval, could be applied through standard drip or spray equipment, improving functionality and performance features.

SRAX Inc.’s (NASDAQ: SRAX) Sequire Well Suited to Meet Radical Shift in Investor Relations Dynamics

 

• Investor relations teams have witnessed radical change in ongoing responsibilities over past few years
• No longer limited to servicing existing and potential investors, IR teams must now respond to ESG queries, engage with both debt investors and credit rating agencies
• Increased responsibilities have led to heightened need for supplemental tools to assist with influx of new data, to complement ongoing IR efforts
• Sequire’s investor intelligence platform has partnered with publicly listed corporations to help provide further insight, assistance during investor engagement efforts

Investor relations (“IR”) teams have opted to refocus their strategy in what has been an unusual year for corporations across the world, seeking to emphasize both strategic engagement with existing shareholders as well as attraction of new potential investors. IR executives have also been drawn to advising corporations on their adherence towards emerging Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) standards, while simultaneously maintaining and improving engagement with debt investors and ratings agencies alike. The consequent and extraordinary increase in role responsibilities and data requirements has worked in the favor of SRAX (NASDAQ: SRAX), a financial technology company focused on unlocking data and insights for publicly traded companies through Sequire, its proprietary investor intelligence platform. The platform has enjoyed a remarkable increase in demand for its services as of late, as IR teams seek to increase investor engagement during ongoing unprecedented global business conditions.

A recent investor relations-focused survey carried out by the Bank of New York Mellon (https://nnw.fm/6LnpN) found that engagement with existing and prospective institutional investors continued to be a top priority for corporate management and IR teams alike, with the latter group devoting 38 percent of their time to existing shareholders while spending a further 25.5 percent catering to prospective investors. However, in a sign of the shifting priorities of the investment community, over 71.3 percent of IR respondents declared that communicating with investors on ESG and Corporate Social Responsibility (“CSR”) issues was now an extension to their ongoing responsibilities.

Corporate IR teams have increasingly shifted towards adopting digital solutions and the data garnered from such mediums as a way of managing the increased demands on their time while simultaneously improving engagement with investors and stakeholders. The sharp uptick in demand for investor data and digital technologies had been mirrored by engagement levels witnessed on SRAX’s Sequire platform. Launched as a stand-alone platform in early 2020, Sequire today boasts over 1 million investors and traders on its platform as well as 91 publicly-listed corporate subscribers (http://nnw.fm/0Wf4E) – a surge of growth largely driven by Sequire’s extensive range of services.

Sequire’s investor intelligence platform allows its subscribers to track their shareholders’ selling and buying trends, search and monitor key investors, track outstanding warrants, receive the latest company-specific news and media, and even create and send out customized shareholder surveys designed to elicit their stake-holders’ insights and opinions (https://nnw.fm/zHyAi).

Perhaps most critically, Sequire allows IR teams to compensate for activities which have been supplanted due to the increased demands on their time. The BNY Mellon survey showed that in 2017, IR teams would spend 26.4 percent of their time catering to prospective institutional investors – a figure which would be reduced to only 25.5 percent by 2019.

Sequire’s management illustrated the platform’s potential to make up for what would traditionally have been a key task for investor relation teams. In one example, a single corporate subscriber using Sequire witnessed its number of individual shareholders skyrocket from 3,000 to over 360,000 during its tenure on the platform.

The investor relations function at publicly listed corporations has undergone a dramatic transformation as of late – with increased regulatory burdens and social distancing leading to a heightened need for both investor intelligence platforms as well as digital distribution channels to facilitate investor communications. Sequire has sought to transform its platform to cater to the growing needs of the IR community, placing it in good stead to benefit from the ongoing evolution of investor relations.
