Text: MONROE, Conn., Dec. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Elidah, maker of ELITONE, a home-use treatment for incontinence, announced it was selected out of 7500 entries from 159 countries to win a Top Ten award from the global SLINGSHOT 2020 start-up competition. Elidah was the only company from the United States awarded this distinction, and one of two start-ups in the life science category.Normally held in Singapore,this year the event was virtual and offered a record $750,000 in cash prizes by StartUpSG. One hundred companies pitched at the live event, and from those ten finalists were selected. The award winners included start-ups from all over the world including Israel, United Kingdom, Singapore, and India, among others. Continue Reading Gloria Kolb holding ELITONE Elidah "We sometimes have the mindset that successful start-ups must come from Silicon Valley," said Gloria Kolb, co-founder and CEO of Elidah, "but innovation is flourishing in the rest of the world as entrepreneurial support systems expand. I was impressed by the other finalists, advancing technologies such as biometric security, artificial intelligence, and gene editing." Although the top prize went to another start-up, Ms. Kolb, as the only female entrepreneur in the finals, was happy to see a company focused on women's health receive recognition. "Women's health should not be a taboo subject, and I hope that investors realize it presents a large market, ripe for innovation." ELITONE is the first home-health device that performs the hard-to-do pelvic floor exercises for women. It operates externally, without the invasiveness of vaginal probes. Exercises are needed to tone the pelvic floor muscles, but they can be hard to do correctly. The wearable nature of ELITONE allows women to do other activities while getting treatment at home, saving time, cost, and risk of infection. In a time when the clinics and pelvic floor physical therapy offices have shut down, at-home over-the-counter devices like ELITONE provide much-needed access to effective FDA-cleared treatments.

Text: DUBLIN, Dec. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Increasing Adoption of Low-cost Devices with Simple Designs in Response to COVID-19 to Disrupt the US & EU-5 Ventilator Market, 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. Revenue for the US & EU-5 ventilators market is expected to increase by 370.7% in 2020 driven by the ongoing Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) situation. The home care segment is expected to see a comparatively strong growth potential post-pandemic. This study assesses the revenue growth impact on different ventilator market segments. It also analyzes future growth opportunities for industry participants in light of the following strategic imperatives - geopolitical chaos due to the pandemic situation and the increasing number of critical care patient admits requiring ventilator use; adoption of disruptive technologies for ventilator designs and assistive technologies; and increasing competition due to the widening demand-supply gap and relaxed regulations. Further, this study provides an evaluation of 9 different growth opportunities from the perspectives of supply chain optimization, technology focus, vertical expansion, customer and branding, new product development and others. Supply chain disruption, excess of low-cost and sub-standard ventilators, and shortage of trained healthcare staff are seen as key market restraints. Three examples of key growth opportunities evaluated are: Remote ventilator surveillance for better care management Strategic geographic expansion for improving market access Targeted brand positioning for improved market penetration Key Topics Covered: Strategic Imperatives Why Is It Increasingly Difficult to Grow?

Forward-Looking Statements Disclaimer This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by use of statements that include phrases such as may, believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, project, target, goal, plan, should, will, predict, potential, outlook, strategy, and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from the Companys forward-looking statements continues to be the adverse effect of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic ("COVID-19"), including resurgences and new variants, on the Companys business, financial performance and condition, operating results and cash flows, the real estate market and the hospitality industry specifically, and the global economy and financial markets generally. The significance, extent and duration of the continued impacts caused by the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence at this time, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the extent and effectiveness of the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, the speed of the vaccine roll-out, the efficacy, acceptance and availability of vaccines, the duration of associated immunity and efficacy of the vaccines against emerging variants of COVID-19, the potential for additional hotel closures/consolidations that may be mandated or advisable, whether based on increased COVID-19 cases, new variants or other factors, the slowing or rollback of reopenings in certain states, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified under the section titled Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID-19. Such additional factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to effectively acquire and dispose of properties; the ability of the Company to successfully integrate pending transactions and implement its operating strategy; changes in general political, economic and competitive conditions and specific market conditions; reduced business and leisure travel due to travel-related health concerns, including the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 or an increase in COVID-19 cases or any other infectious or contagious diseases in the U.S. or abroad; adverse changes in the real estate and real estate capital markets; financing risks; changes in interest rates; litigation risks; regulatory proceedings or inquiries; and changes in laws or regulations or interpretations of current laws and regulations that impact the Companys business, assets or classification as a REIT. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this press release will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Companys qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to those discussed in the section titled Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

Forward-looking statements are typically identified by use of statements that include phrases such as may, believe, expect, anticipate, intend, estimate, project, target, goal, plan, should, will, predict, potential, outlook, strategy, and similar expressions that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from the Companys forward-looking statements continues to be the adverse effect of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic ("COVID-19"), including resurgences and new variants, on the Companys business, financial performance and condition, operating results and cash flows, the real estate market and the hospitality industry specifically, and the global economy and financial markets generally. The significance, extent and duration of the continued impacts caused by the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence at this time, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic, the extent and effectiveness of the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, the speed of the vaccine roll-out, the efficacy, acceptance and availability of vaccines, the duration of associated immunity and efficacy of the vaccines against emerging variants of COVID-19, the potential for additional hotel closures/consolidations that may be mandated or advisable, whether based on increased COVID-19 cases, new variants or other factors, the slowing or rollback of reopenings in certain states, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified under the section titled Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of COVID-19. Such additional factors include, but are not limited to, the ability of the Company to effectively acquire and dispose of properties; the ability of the Company to successfully integrate pending transactions and implement its operating strategy; changes in general political, economic and competitive conditions and specific market conditions; reduced business and leisure travel due to travel-related health concerns, including the widespread outbreak of COVID-19 or an increase in COVID-19 cases or any other infectious or contagious diseases in the U.S. or abroad; adverse changes in the real estate and real estate capital markets; financing risks; changes in interest rates; litigation risks; regulatory proceedings or inquiries; and changes in laws or regulations or interpretations of current laws and regulations that impact the Companys business, assets or classification as a REIT. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and therefore there can be no assurance that such statements included in this press release will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the results or conditions described in such statements or the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. In addition, the Companys qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in the Companys filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to those discussed in the section titled Risk Factors in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Any forward-looking statement that the Company makes speaks only as of the date of this press release. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or cautionary factors, as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

Text: OLDWICK, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AM Best has downgraded the Financial Strength Rating (FSR) to C++ (Marginal) from B+ (Good) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Rating (Long-Term ICR) to b+ from bbb- of American Millennium Insurance Company (AMIC) (Bridgewater, NJ), a wholly owned subsidiary of Citadel Reinsurance Company Limited (Citadel Re) (Hamilton, Bermuda). Additionally, AM Best has placed these Credit Ratings (ratings) under review with negative implications. Concurrently, AM Best has placed under review with negative implications the FSR of B++ (Good) and the Long-Term ICR of bbb+ of Citadel Re. The ratings of AMIC reflect its balance sheet strength, which AM Best categorizes as very weak, as well as its marginal operating performance, limited business profile and marginal enterprise risk management. These rating actions follow AMICs second-quarter 2020 results, which resulted in year-to-date underwriting and operating losses that were well outside of managements expectations. These extraordinary losses stem from higher-than-expected loss costs and adverse loss reserve development related to two commercial auto programs both discontinued and placed into run-off in 2018. While reinsurance will play a key role in absorbing the majority of these losses, the scope and magnitude of the development was such that the net loss for the quarter depleted surplus by more than 30%, resulting in lower-than-expected risk-adjusted capital, including those prescribed under statutory risk-based capital (RBC) guidelines. As a result, AM Best has revised its assessment of AMICs capitalization and overall balance sheet strength to very weak from weak. While the surplus size of AMIC is small relative to that of Citadel Re, the scale of AMICs surplus loss also has negatively impacted the consolidated balance sheet strength of its parent, Citadel Re; however, its balance sheet assessment remains as strong. The potential for further adverse reserve development also is embedded in the balance sheet strength assessment of Citadel Re and AMIC. Additionally, AM Best has revised downward AMICs enterprise risk management assessment to marginal, given the magnitude of the loss development, potential weaknesses in AMICs internal audit functions, managements failure to acknowledge and recognize the problems in a more timely fashion and a risk appetite that proved to be well outside of AMICs modest capital base. AMICs ratings also contemplate a substantial amount of implied support from its parent, Citadel Re. Citadel Res management is in the process of developing initiatives to recapitalize AMICs balance sheet, and plans to reorganize its legacy run-off operations in a more effective manner. While the internal reorganization could take time, it is expected that AMICs statutory surplus will be largely replenished by Citadel Re during the remainder of year through additional capital support and retroactive reinsurance. The under review with negative implications status reflects AM Best's ongoing concerns regarding AMICs current capital position, managements ability to stem future loss reserve development and any shortcomings in Citadel Res anticipated recapitalization of AMIC from a RBC and Bests Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR) perspective. The ratings will remain under review pending further discussions between AM Best and Citadel Res management regarding its plans to refine AMICs business strategy and its more immediate plans to recapitalize AMIC's balance sheet to a level more commensurate with year-end 2019 and to the minimum required regulatory level prescribed by RBC guidelines. Management expects this to be implemented, resolved and executed within the next 60 days. The negative implications suggest that if these initiatives do not materialize, or if the timing of these initiatives are protracted and/or further adverse reserve development emerges, AMIC's ratings could be lowered further. This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Bests website. For all rating information relating to the release and pertinent disclosures, including details of the office responsible for issuing each of the individual ratings referenced in this release, please see AM Bests Recent Rating Activity web page.

Text: INDIANAPOLIS, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Biosynthetic Technologies today announced that its Estolide technology has found a new use in diabetic testing applications. In partnership with Cayman Chemical, Biosynthetic Technologies, provides discovery and pre-clinical development services to the global pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic research markets using Estolide products (also known as fatty acid hydroxy fatty acids or FAHFAs) for research purposes. Biosynthetic Technologies developed a novel class of high-performance, bio-based base oils with a wide range of uses. These patented Estolides are biodegradable, non-bioaccumulative, and non-toxic. In addition to industrial products such as lubricants and additives, Estolides have potential applications in the pharmaceutical sector. In recent years, it was shown that free-acid Estolides are produced endogenously in animals and humans. Optically active Estolides such as (R)9-palmitic acid hydroxystearic acid demonstrate biological activities that have made them targets for research in the treatment of diabetes and certain inflammatory conditions. In addition to their potential use as an active pharmaceutical ingredient, some Estolides exhibit physical properties that may make them particularly suitable as an additive in certain pharmaceutical formulations. Estolide esters are safe, non-toxic, and hydrolytically stable, making them attractive candidates for potential uses such as excipients and active drug delivery vehicles. "We are proud to report that our Estolides are now used as excipients and active drug delivery vehicles," said Dr. Matthew Kriech, COO of Biosynthetic Technologies and a type-1 diabetic himself. "We have always known that Estolide technology would enable us to deliver innovative solutions for a sustainable future. We did not know that Estolide technology would have the impact that it has today, providing a medical solution to diabetes testing applications." "We are delighted to offer the innovative products developed by Biosynthetic Technologies to our partners and customers in the life science research community. Biosynthetic Technologies is well known as a leader in the development and manufacture of novel, environmentally responsible, and sustainable high-performance biobased synthetic materials, but this just once again proves to all of us that our novel Estolides are indeed cutting edge," said Mr. Mark Miller, CEO of Biosynthetic Technologies. At Biosynthetic Technologies, we understand the importance of sustainable manufacturing practices. Biosynthetic Technologies is committed to sustainability and clearly focused on the responsible use of natural resources in our daily business. We understand that health, environmental awareness, and traceability play just as large a role for consumers as quality and efficacy. As such, our manufacturing facility is operating with a NEGATIVE carbon footprint! About Biosynthetic Technologies: Biosynthetic Technologies manufactures a revolutionary new class of biobased synthetic compounds called Estolides that are made from organic fatty acids found in various bio-derived oils. These highly functional biosynthetic oils have numerous uses in lubricant, automotive, marine, pharma, and personal care applications and can be used as the primary base oil of a formulation, a component of a base oil co-blend, or even as an additive. In addition to their high-performance properties, these renewable oils are biodegradable and nontoxic.

Text: DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Digitally Printed Wallpaper Market Forecast to 2027 - COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis By Substrate (Nonwoven, Vinyl, Paper, and Others), Printing Technology (Inkjet and Electrophotography), and End-User(Residential and Commercial)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. According to this report the global digitally printed wallpaper market was valued at US$ 3,253.3 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 17,676.0 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 24.2% from 2020 to 2027. In 2019, APAC led the global digitally printed wallpaper market with a significant market share, followed by Europe and North America. APAC is well-known for technological innovations that are taking place in countries such as China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. APAC is projected to register the highest growth rate in the market during the forecast period. China contributes a major share in the Asia Pacific market. The increasing demand for inexpensive interior decoration, rising number of new housing units, increasing population, and surging investments in the infrastructure sector generate demand for digitally printed wallpaper in this region. The low manufacturing cost, and favorable policies and plans - such as the National New-type Urbanization Plan in China - propel the market growth in the region. The large population in countries such as India and China raises the demand for commercial and residential infrastructure. APAC comprises a large number of emerging economies such as India, China, and other southeastern countries, which are demanding more infrastructure projects. Moreover, various countries in the region are focusing on attracting new investments in infrastructure development. For instance, India's government has allowed 100% FDI under automatic route in completed projects for operations and management of townships, malls/shopping complexes, and business constructions. These factors are expected to support the growth of the construction industry in the region in the coming years, which would fuel the growth of the region's digitally printed wallpaper market. Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Digitally Printed Wallpaper Market According to the latest report from World Health Organization (WHO), the US, Spain, Italy, France, Germany, the UK, Russia, Turkey, Brazil, Iran, India, and China are a few of the worst affected countries due to COVID-19 outbreak.
