The Total Economic Impact study uncovers how companies can do this faster and more effectively with the Databricks Unified Data Analytics Platform. Using Databricks, customers can tap innovations like AI-powered personalized product recommendations, supply chain forecasting, manufacturing defect detection, and fraud prevention that help maximize top-line growth and reduce operating costs. Data teams interviewed for the study experienced the following key benefits of Databricks' Unified Data Analytics Platform: Increased Profits by Accelerating Data Science Outcomes:Customers reported an increase in revenues by 5%. By realizing the combination of more and better machine learning models with Databricks, data scientists were able to spend more time iterating on new innovations. According to a Vice President of Data Science at a global media company, "Before, we had to wait two weeks for a process to finish before we could analyze and iterate on a ML model. Now, the same job takes an hour. We can iterate over it multiple times a day, allowing us to really understand the outcomes of our research, tweak it, and make a new model without interruption." Improved Productivity of Data Teams: Databricks improved customer productivity of data scientists and data engineers by 25% and 20%, respectively. Customers shared that the improved data management capabilities enabled data teams to spend less time searching for and cleaning data, less time creating and maintaining ETL pipelines, and more time building analytics and ML models to drive meaningful business outcomes.

Aman Bhardwaj, our COO, and the core group of engineers at Liberty have made great progress towards this goal over the past twelve months. We are now able to demonstrate not only 3D video-rate imaging but also the real-time automated detection of concealed metallic and non-metallic threats that may be carried into a public venue or other hi-traffic application. Unfortunately, we continue to see a rise in gun violence in the United States, so it is becoming even more important to commercialize products like HEXWAVE."

Over the years, organizations have enhanced the level of innovation, and with the outbreak of COVID-19, a majority of operations have been compromised. This has forced organizations to function in a non-optimized manner, as a result of which they are looking for innovative areas that can improve their revenue by a small percentage.

Decisions that are driven by data help in saving time. Therefore, electronic payments are already benefitting from long-standing trends where physical cash is quickly becoming a thing of the past, and the COVID-19 outbreak is expected to accelerate the use of electronic payment methods. In the short-term, most shops across the globe are now only accepting digital payments, even though the total number of transactions is decreasing. Although cash is quickly becoming a thing of the past, some traditional generations still resist the use of digital currency. Digital payments continue to evolve, with the inclusion of payment-enabled IoT devices augmenting the browser and mobile payment experience. Consumers can pay using a range of newly connected devices, including connected cars, household appliances, and, most recently, wearables. In parallel, the IoT is also changing the retail Point of Sale (PoS) to include several new touchpoints, including parking meters, fitting room mirrors, and vending machines. IoT devices range from small wearable devices and shopping carts to home appliances and cars. IoT devices use a connectivity channel to trigger a payment transaction, with technology depending on the environment. Manufacturing vertical is expected to see less growth during the forecast period With the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the manufacturing industry is badly hit. The manufacturing slowdown in China has affected the manufacturing business in more than 15 countries, due to country-wide lockdowns, strict international border controls, social distancing measures for workers, and supply chain issues from China. According to The Economic Times, the government ordered manufacturing sectors in India, such as automakers, smartphone makers, consumer electronic firms, appliance makers, and many others, to shut down their operations till the end of March 2020. Factory shutdowns will further lead to incalculable damages to the production of key products. The Economic Times also stated that in this extreme scenario of a complete shutdown of all factories for one month, it is estimated that the real manufacturing Gross Value Added (GVA) would fall by 5% in FY 2020/21. These factory shutdowns would delay the immediate implementation of IoT solutions, thus, adversely affecting the Indian manufacturing market.

Article: BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), a leader in consumer robots, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2021. "iRobot delivered a strong finish to 2020 with revenue, operating income and EPS that surpassed the plans that we outlined at the end of October," said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. "Solid demand combined with excellent collaboration and execution among our sales, marketing and operations teams and our broader supply chain enabled us to grow fourth-quarter revenue in excess of 25% in each major geographic region. We converted this top-line performance into increased operating income and EPS." Angle continued, "Maintaining a clean home has taken on increasing importance while the pandemic forces people to stay at home. It is gratifying to see that our efforts to differentiate our floor cleaning robots with innovative features and functionality that support the fluid lifestyles of their owners are resonating in the marketplace. To that end, we generated significant growth with our premium floor cleaning robots throughout the year. We were also pleased with the substantial expansion of our connected customer base, which grew over 80% in 2020." Angle concluded, "Our outlook for 2021 reflects our confidence that the growth drivers for our business will remain largely intact over the coming quarters. We believe that our success in continuing to drive solid top-line expansion in 2021 will also enable us to fund investment into key areas of our business and help mitigate the impact of tariffs on our 2021 profitability. As we move forward, we believe that our success in scaling Malaysia volumes, advancing key R&D initiatives and building stronger, more enduring relationships with millions of connected customers will further strengthen our business, enhance our ability to drive overall top-line growth and accelerate our profitability over the long term. As we continue to execute on our plans, we are excited about our prospects to sustain solid top-line growth into 2022 and convert that expansion into 2022 profit margins and EPS that exceed 2020 levels." Financial Performance Highlights Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 28% to $544.8 million over $426.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Full-year 2020 revenue was $1,430.4 million, an increase of 18% over $1,214.0 million in 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 revenue growth was highlighted by 28% growth in the U.S. and 27% international growth. Growth outside of the U.S. was led by 39% expansion in Japan and a 26% increase in EMEA. Full-year 2020 revenue grew 23% in the U.S., 20% in Japan and 8% in EMEA. We estimate that iRobot's fourth-quarter 2020 revenue to support e-commerce, which spans the company's own website and app, dedicated e-commerce websites and the online arms of traditional retailers, grew by over 70% over the fourth quarter of 2019, and represented approximately 60% of fourth-quarter 2020 revenue. For the full year 2020, we estimate that revenue to support e-commerce grew approximately 55% and represented 60% of annual revenue. Direct-to-consumer revenue of $68 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 117% from the prior year's fourth quarter. 2020 direct-to-consumer revenue of $151 million grew 114% over 2019. The company enjoyed strong growth in its premium robots for both the quarter and full year. Premium robot revenue grew 55% in the fourth quarter of 2020 and nearly 50% for the full year. Premium robots are defined as floor cleaning robots with an MSRP of $500 and higher (the Roomba i3+, 900 Series, i7 Series and s9 Series, and the Braava Jet m Series). Fourth-quarter 2020 GAAP operating income was $15.3 million, compared with $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 non-GAAP operating income was $30.4 million versus $27.0 million in the same period last year. Full-year 2020 GAAP operating income was $146.3 million, compared with $86.6 million for the full year 2019. For 2020, non-GAAP operating income was $149.7 million versus $125.8 million for the full year 2019. GAAP net income per share for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $0.46, compared with $0.70 per share in the fourth quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income per share was $0.84 for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $0.69 in the fourth quarter of 2019. GAAP net income per share for 2020 was $5.14, compared with $2.97 per share in 2019. Full-year non-GAAP 2020 net income per share was $4.14, compared with $3.62 for full-year 2019. iRobot's 2020 financial results were achieved over a 53-week period while the company's 2019 performance reflected a 52-week period. As of January 2, 2021, the company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $483.7 million, up from $357.3 million as of September 26, 2020, and $256.4 million as of December 28, 2019.

We use non-GAAP measures to internally evaluate and analyze financial results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and enable comparison of our financial results with other public companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Amortization of acquired intangible assets: Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of amortization of intangible assets including completed technology, customer relationships, and reacquired distribution rights acquired in connection with business combinations. Amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of our acquisitions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Tariff Refunds: iRobot was granted a Section 301 List 3 Tariff Exclusion in April 2020, which temporarily eliminates tariffs on the Company's products imported from China until December 31, 2020 and entitles the Company to a refund of all related tariffs previously paid since September 2018. We exclude the refunds for tariffs paid in 2018 and 2019 from our 2020 second-quarter and year-to-date non-GAAP measures because those tariff refunds associated with tariff costs incurred in the past have no impact to our current period earnings. Net Merger, Acquisition and Divestiture (Income) Expense: Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (income) expense primarily consists of transaction fees, professional fees, and transition and integration costs directly associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. It also includes business combination adjustments including adjustments after the measurement period has ended. The occurrence and amount of these costs will vary depending on the timing and size of these transactions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation is a non-cash charge relating to stock-based awards. We exclude this expense as it is a non-cash expense, and we assess our internal operations excluding this expense and believe it facilitates comparisons to the performance of other companies. IP Litigation Expense, Net: IP litigation expense, net relates to legal costs incurred to litigate patent, trademark, copyright and false advertising infringements, or to oppose or defend against interparty actions related to intellectual property. Any settlement payment or proceeds resulting from these infringements are included or netted against the costs. We exclude these costs from our non-GAAP measures as we do not believe these costs have a direct correlation to the operations of our business and may vary in size depending on the timing and results of such litigations and settlements. Gain/Loss on Strategic Investments:Gain/loss on strategic investments includes fair value adjustments, realized gains and losses on the sales of these investments and losses on the impairment of these investments. We exclude these items from our non-GAAP measures because we do not believe they correlate to the performance of our core business and may vary in size based on market conditions and events. We believe that the exclusion of these gains or losses provides investors with a supplemental view of our operational performance. Restructuring and Other: Restructuring charges are related to one-time actions associated with workforce reductions, including severance costs, certain professional fees and other costs directly associated with resource realignments tied to strategic initiatives or changes in business conditions. We exclude this item from our non-GAAP measures when evaluating our recent and prospective business performance as such items vary significantly based on the magnitude of the action and do not reflect anticipated future operating costs. In addition, these charges do not necessarily provide meaningful insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. Income tax adjustments:Income tax adjustments include the tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments, calculated using the appropriate statutory tax rate for each adjustment. We reassess the need for any valuation allowance recorded based on the non-GAAP profitability and have eliminated the effect of the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. jurisdiction. We also exclude certain tax items that are not reflective of income tax expense incurred as a result of current period earnings. These certain tax items include, among other non-recurring tax items, impacts from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and stock-based compensation windfalls/shortfalls. We believe disclosure of the income tax provision before the effect of such tax items is important to permit investors' consistent earnings comparison between periods. iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of GAAP Actuals to Non-GAAP Actuals (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited) For the three months ended For the twelve months ended January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 GAAP Revenue $ 544,827 $ 426,778 $ 1,430,390 $ 1,214,010 GAAP Gross Profit $ 215,421 $ 169,370 $ 670,229 $ 543,927 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 225 2,438 1,920 11,721 Stock-based compensation 362 366 1,511 1,486 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Non-GAAP Gross Profit $ 219,539 $ 172,174 $ 637,174 $ 557,134 Non-GAAP Gross Margin 40.3% 40.3% 44.5% 45.9% GAAP Operating Expenses $ 200,151 $ 152,820 $ 523,907 $ 457,309 Amortization of acquired intangible assets (228) (255) (992) (1,051) Stock-based compensation (8,709) (4,635) (28,464) (22,258) Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (expense) income - (138) 566 (466) IP litigation expense, net (2,084) (2,582) (5,444) (2,218) Restructuring and other (10) - (2,073) - Non-GAAP Operating Expenses $ 189,120 $ 145,210 $ 487,500 $ 431,316 Non-GAAP Operating Expenses as a % of Non-GAAP Revenue 34.7% 34.0% 34.1% 35.5% GAAP Operating Income $ 15,270 $ 16,550 $ 146,322 $ 86,618 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (566) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Non-GAAP Operating Income $ 30,419 $ 26,964 $ 149,674 $ 125,818 Non-GAAP Operating Margin 5.6% 6.3% 10.5% 10.4% GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 1,691 $ 5,011 $ 40,847 $ 13,533 Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments 3,826 1,159 (12,016) 4,648 Other tax adjustments 253 1,267 (635) 6,928 Non-GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 5,770 $ 7,437 $ 28,196 $ 25,109 GAAP Net Income $ 13,335 $ 20,041 $ 147,068 $ 85,300 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (1,241) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Gain on strategic investments (250) (8,332) (43,817) (8,904) Income tax effect (4,079) (2,426) 12,651 (11,576) Non-GAAP Net Income $ 24,155 $ 19,697 $ 118,579 $ 104,020 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.46 $ 0.70 $ 5.14 $ 2.97 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 0.02 0.09 0.10 0.44 Stock-based compensation 0.32 0.18 1.05 0.83 Tariff refunds 0.12 - (1.28) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - - (0.04) 0.01 IP litigation expense, net 0.07 0.09 0.19 0.08 Restructuring and other - - 0.07 - Gain on strategic investments (0.01) (0.29) (1.53) (0.31) Income tax effect (0.14) (0.08) 0.44 (0.40) Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.84 $ 0.69 $ 4.14 $ 3.62 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculation 28,763 28,563 28,618 28,735 Section 301 Tariff Costs Section 301 tariff costs $ - $ 21,896 $ - $ 37,862 Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to gross and operating margin (GAAP & non-GAAP) - % (5.1)% - % (3.1)% Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to net (loss) income per diluted share (GAAP & non-GAAP) $ - $ (0.77) $ - $ (1.32) Supplemental Information Days sales outstanding 31 31 Days in inventory 55 56 iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of Fiscal Year 2021 GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance (unaudited) FY-21 GAAP Gross Profit $662 - $692 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$2 million Total adjustments ~$3 million Non-GAAP Gross Profit $665 - $695 million FY-21 GAAP Operating Income $69 - $79 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$32 million IP litigation expense, net ~$8 million Total adjustments ~$41 million Non-GAAP Operating Income $110 - $120 million FY-21 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $1.85 - $2.10 Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$0.03 Stock-based compensation ~$1.10 IP litigation expense, net ~ $0.27 Income tax effect ~($0.25) Total adjustments ~$1.15 Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $3.00 - $3.25 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculations ~29.1 million SOURCE iRobot Corporation Related Links http://www.irobot.com Just write a title.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
iRobot Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2020 Financial Results. 28% Revenue Growth Drives Better-than-Expected Operating Income and EPS.
BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), a leader in consumer robots, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2021. "iRobot delivered a strong finish to 2020 with revenue, operating income and EPS that surpassed the plans that we outlined at the end of October," said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. "Solid demand combined with excellent collaboration and execution among our sales, marketing and operations teams and our broader supply chain enabled us to grow fourth-quarter revenue in excess of 25% in each major geographic region. We converted this top-line performance into increased operating income and EPS." Angle continued, "Maintaining a clean home has taken on increasing importance while the pandemic forces people to stay at home. It is gratifying to see that our efforts to differentiate our floor cleaning robots with innovative features and functionality that support the fluid lifestyles of their owners are resonating in the marketplace. To that end, we generated significant growth with our premium floor cleaning robots throughout the year. We were also pleased with the substantial expansion of our connected customer base, which grew over 80% in 2020." Angle concluded, "Our outlook for 2021 reflects our confidence that the growth drivers for our business will remain largely intact over the coming quarters. We believe that our success in continuing to drive solid top-line expansion in 2021 will also enable us to fund investment into key areas of our business and help mitigate the impact of tariffs on our 2021 profitability. As we move forward, we believe that our success in scaling Malaysia volumes, advancing key R&D initiatives and building stronger, more enduring relationships with millions of connected customers will further strengthen our business, enhance our ability to drive overall top-line growth and accelerate our profitability over the long term. As we continue to execute on our plans, we are excited about our prospects to sustain solid top-line growth into 2022 and convert that expansion into 2022 profit margins and EPS that exceed 2020 levels." Financial Performance Highlights Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 28% to $544.8 million over $426.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Full-year 2020 revenue was $1,430.4 million, an increase of 18% over $1,214.0 million in 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 revenue growth was highlighted by 28% growth in the U.S. and 27% international growth. Growth outside of the U.S. was led by 39% expansion in Japan and a 26% increase in EMEA. Full-year 2020 revenue grew 23% in the U.S., 20% in Japan and 8% in EMEA. We estimate that iRobot's fourth-quarter 2020 revenue to support e-commerce, which spans the company's own website and app, dedicated e-commerce websites and the online arms of traditional retailers, grew by over 70% over the fourth quarter of 2019, and represented approximately 60% of fourth-quarter 2020 revenue. For the full year 2020, we estimate that revenue to support e-commerce grew approximately 55% and represented 60% of annual revenue. Direct-to-consumer revenue of $68 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 117% from the prior year's fourth quarter. 2020 direct-to-consumer revenue of $151 million grew 114% over 2019. The company enjoyed strong growth in its premium robots for both the quarter and full year. Premium robot revenue grew 55% in the fourth quarter of 2020 and nearly 50% for the full year. Premium robots are defined as floor cleaning robots with an MSRP of $500 and higher (the Roomba i3+, 900 Series, i7 Series and s9 Series, and the Braava Jet m Series). Fourth-quarter 2020 GAAP operating income was $15.3 million, compared with $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 non-GAAP operating income was $30.4 million versus $27.0 million in the same period last year. Full-year 2020 GAAP operating income was $146.3 million, compared with $86.6 million for the full year 2019. For 2020, non-GAAP operating income was $149.7 million versus $125.8 million for the full year 2019. GAAP net income per share for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $0.46, compared with $0.70 per share in the fourth quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income per share was $0.84 for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $0.69 in the fourth quarter of 2019. GAAP net income per share for 2020 was $5.14, compared with $2.97 per share in 2019. Full-year non-GAAP 2020 net income per share was $4.14, compared with $3.62 for full-year 2019. iRobot's 2020 financial results were achieved over a 53-week period while the company's 2019 performance reflected a 52-week period. As of January 2, 2021, the company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $483.7 million, up from $357.3 million as of September 26, 2020, and $256.4 million as of December 28, 2019.

We use non-GAAP measures to internally evaluate and analyze financial results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and enable comparison of our financial results with other public companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Amortization of acquired intangible assets: Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of amortization of intangible assets including completed technology, customer relationships, and reacquired distribution rights acquired in connection with business combinations. Amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of our acquisitions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Tariff Refunds: iRobot was granted a Section 301 List 3 Tariff Exclusion in April 2020, which temporarily eliminates tariffs on the Company's products imported from China until December 31, 2020 and entitles the Company to a refund of all related tariffs previously paid since September 2018. We exclude the refunds for tariffs paid in 2018 and 2019 from our 2020 second-quarter and year-to-date non-GAAP measures because those tariff refunds associated with tariff costs incurred in the past have no impact to our current period earnings. Net Merger, Acquisition and Divestiture (Income) Expense: Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (income) expense primarily consists of transaction fees, professional fees, and transition and integration costs directly associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. It also includes business combination adjustments including adjustments after the measurement period has ended. The occurrence and amount of these costs will vary depending on the timing and size of these transactions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation is a non-cash charge relating to stock-based awards. We exclude this expense as it is a non-cash expense, and we assess our internal operations excluding this expense and believe it facilitates comparisons to the performance of other companies. IP Litigation Expense, Net: IP litigation expense, net relates to legal costs incurred to litigate patent, trademark, copyright and false advertising infringements, or to oppose or defend against interparty actions related to intellectual property. Any settlement payment or proceeds resulting from these infringements are included or netted against the costs. We exclude these costs from our non-GAAP measures as we do not believe these costs have a direct correlation to the operations of our business and may vary in size depending on the timing and results of such litigations and settlements. Gain/Loss on Strategic Investments:Gain/loss on strategic investments includes fair value adjustments, realized gains and losses on the sales of these investments and losses on the impairment of these investments. We exclude these items from our non-GAAP measures because we do not believe they correlate to the performance of our core business and may vary in size based on market conditions and events. We believe that the exclusion of these gains or losses provides investors with a supplemental view of our operational performance. Restructuring and Other: Restructuring charges are related to one-time actions associated with workforce reductions, including severance costs, certain professional fees and other costs directly associated with resource realignments tied to strategic initiatives or changes in business conditions. We exclude this item from our non-GAAP measures when evaluating our recent and prospective business performance as such items vary significantly based on the magnitude of the action and do not reflect anticipated future operating costs. In addition, these charges do not necessarily provide meaningful insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. Income tax adjustments:Income tax adjustments include the tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments, calculated using the appropriate statutory tax rate for each adjustment. We reassess the need for any valuation allowance recorded based on the non-GAAP profitability and have eliminated the effect of the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. jurisdiction. We also exclude certain tax items that are not reflective of income tax expense incurred as a result of current period earnings. These certain tax items include, among other non-recurring tax items, impacts from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and stock-based compensation windfalls/shortfalls. We believe disclosure of the income tax provision before the effect of such tax items is important to permit investors' consistent earnings comparison between periods. iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of GAAP Actuals to Non-GAAP Actuals (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited) For the three months ended For the twelve months ended January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 GAAP Revenue $ 544,827 $ 426,778 $ 1,430,390 $ 1,214,010 GAAP Gross Profit $ 215,421 $ 169,370 $ 670,229 $ 543,927 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 225 2,438 1,920 11,721 Stock-based compensation 362 366 1,511 1,486 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Non-GAAP Gross Profit $ 219,539 $ 172,174 $ 637,174 $ 557,134 Non-GAAP Gross Margin 40.3% 40.3% 44.5% 45.9% GAAP Operating Expenses $ 200,151 $ 152,820 $ 523,907 $ 457,309 Amortization of acquired intangible assets (228) (255) (992) (1,051) Stock-based compensation (8,709) (4,635) (28,464) (22,258) Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (expense) income - (138) 566 (466) IP litigation expense, net (2,084) (2,582) (5,444) (2,218) Restructuring and other (10) - (2,073) - Non-GAAP Operating Expenses $ 189,120 $ 145,210 $ 487,500 $ 431,316 Non-GAAP Operating Expenses as a % of Non-GAAP Revenue 34.7% 34.0% 34.1% 35.5% GAAP Operating Income $ 15,270 $ 16,550 $ 146,322 $ 86,618 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (566) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Non-GAAP Operating Income $ 30,419 $ 26,964 $ 149,674 $ 125,818 Non-GAAP Operating Margin 5.6% 6.3% 10.5% 10.4% GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 1,691 $ 5,011 $ 40,847 $ 13,533 Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments 3,826 1,159 (12,016) 4,648 Other tax adjustments 253 1,267 (635) 6,928 Non-GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 5,770 $ 7,437 $ 28,196 $ 25,109 GAAP Net Income $ 13,335 $ 20,041 $ 147,068 $ 85,300 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (1,241) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Gain on strategic investments (250) (8,332) (43,817) (8,904) Income tax effect (4,079) (2,426) 12,651 (11,576) Non-GAAP Net Income $ 24,155 $ 19,697 $ 118,579 $ 104,020 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.46 $ 0.70 $ 5.14 $ 2.97 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 0.02 0.09 0.10 0.44 Stock-based compensation 0.32 0.18 1.05 0.83 Tariff refunds 0.12 - (1.28) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - - (0.04) 0.01 IP litigation expense, net 0.07 0.09 0.19 0.08 Restructuring and other - - 0.07 - Gain on strategic investments (0.01) (0.29) (1.53) (0.31) Income tax effect (0.14) (0.08) 0.44 (0.40) Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.84 $ 0.69 $ 4.14 $ 3.62 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculation 28,763 28,563 28,618 28,735 Section 301 Tariff Costs Section 301 tariff costs $ - $ 21,896 $ - $ 37,862 Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to gross and operating margin (GAAP & non-GAAP) - % (5.1)% - % (3.1)% Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to net (loss) income per diluted share (GAAP & non-GAAP) $ - $ (0.77) $ - $ (1.32) Supplemental Information Days sales outstanding 31 31 Days in inventory 55 56 iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of Fiscal Year 2021 GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance (unaudited) FY-21 GAAP Gross Profit $662 - $692 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$2 million Total adjustments ~$3 million Non-GAAP Gross Profit $665 - $695 million FY-21 GAAP Operating Income $69 - $79 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$32 million IP litigation expense, net ~$8 million Total adjustments ~$41 million Non-GAAP Operating Income $110 - $120 million FY-21 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $1.85 - $2.10 Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$0.03 Stock-based compensation ~$1.10 IP litigation expense, net ~ $0.27 Income tax effect ~($0.25) Total adjustments ~$1.15 Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $3.00 - $3.25 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculations ~29.1 million SOURCE iRobot Corporation Related Links http://www.irobot.com

<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a seasoned marketing PR professional brainstorming a captivating headline for a press release at BUSINESS WIRE and PRNewswire<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Write a headline with strong SEO potential. Article: BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --iRobot Corp. (NASDAQ: IRBT), a leader in consumer robots, today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2021. "iRobot delivered a strong finish to 2020 with revenue, operating income and EPS that surpassed the plans that we outlined at the end of October," said Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot. "Solid demand combined with excellent collaboration and execution among our sales, marketing and operations teams and our broader supply chain enabled us to grow fourth-quarter revenue in excess of 25% in each major geographic region. We converted this top-line performance into increased operating income and EPS." Angle continued, "Maintaining a clean home has taken on increasing importance while the pandemic forces people to stay at home. It is gratifying to see that our efforts to differentiate our floor cleaning robots with innovative features and functionality that support the fluid lifestyles of their owners are resonating in the marketplace. To that end, we generated significant growth with our premium floor cleaning robots throughout the year. We were also pleased with the substantial expansion of our connected customer base, which grew over 80% in 2020." Angle concluded, "Our outlook for 2021 reflects our confidence that the growth drivers for our business will remain largely intact over the coming quarters. We believe that our success in continuing to drive solid top-line expansion in 2021 will also enable us to fund investment into key areas of our business and help mitigate the impact of tariffs on our 2021 profitability. As we move forward, we believe that our success in scaling Malaysia volumes, advancing key R&D initiatives and building stronger, more enduring relationships with millions of connected customers will further strengthen our business, enhance our ability to drive overall top-line growth and accelerate our profitability over the long term. As we continue to execute on our plans, we are excited about our prospects to sustain solid top-line growth into 2022 and convert that expansion into 2022 profit margins and EPS that exceed 2020 levels." Financial Performance Highlights Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 28% to $544.8 million over $426.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Full-year 2020 revenue was $1,430.4 million, an increase of 18% over $1,214.0 million in 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 revenue growth was highlighted by 28% growth in the U.S. and 27% international growth. Growth outside of the U.S. was led by 39% expansion in Japan and a 26% increase in EMEA. Full-year 2020 revenue grew 23% in the U.S., 20% in Japan and 8% in EMEA. We estimate that iRobot's fourth-quarter 2020 revenue to support e-commerce, which spans the company's own website and app, dedicated e-commerce websites and the online arms of traditional retailers, grew by over 70% over the fourth quarter of 2019, and represented approximately 60% of fourth-quarter 2020 revenue. For the full year 2020, we estimate that revenue to support e-commerce grew approximately 55% and represented 60% of annual revenue. Direct-to-consumer revenue of $68 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 grew 117% from the prior year's fourth quarter. 2020 direct-to-consumer revenue of $151 million grew 114% over 2019. The company enjoyed strong growth in its premium robots for both the quarter and full year. Premium robot revenue grew 55% in the fourth quarter of 2020 and nearly 50% for the full year. Premium robots are defined as floor cleaning robots with an MSRP of $500 and higher (the Roomba i3+, 900 Series, i7 Series and s9 Series, and the Braava Jet m Series). Fourth-quarter 2020 GAAP operating income was $15.3 million, compared with $16.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Fourth-quarter 2020 non-GAAP operating income was $30.4 million versus $27.0 million in the same period last year. Full-year 2020 GAAP operating income was $146.3 million, compared with $86.6 million for the full year 2019. For 2020, non-GAAP operating income was $149.7 million versus $125.8 million for the full year 2019. GAAP net income per share for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $0.46, compared with $0.70 per share in the fourth quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP net income per share was $0.84 for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $0.69 in the fourth quarter of 2019. GAAP net income per share for 2020 was $5.14, compared with $2.97 per share in 2019. Full-year non-GAAP 2020 net income per share was $4.14, compared with $3.62 for full-year 2019. iRobot's 2020 financial results were achieved over a 53-week period while the company's 2019 performance reflected a 52-week period. As of January 2, 2021, the company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $483.7 million, up from $357.3 million as of September 26, 2020, and $256.4 million as of December 28, 2019.

We use non-GAAP measures to internally evaluate and analyze financial results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and enable comparison of our financial results with other public companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Our non-GAAP financial measures reflect adjustments based on the following items. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated. Amortization of acquired intangible assets: Amortization of acquired intangible assets consists of amortization of intangible assets including completed technology, customer relationships, and reacquired distribution rights acquired in connection with business combinations. Amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the timing and valuation of our acquisitions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Tariff Refunds: iRobot was granted a Section 301 List 3 Tariff Exclusion in April 2020, which temporarily eliminates tariffs on the Company's products imported from China until December 31, 2020 and entitles the Company to a refund of all related tariffs previously paid since September 2018. We exclude the refunds for tariffs paid in 2018 and 2019 from our 2020 second-quarter and year-to-date non-GAAP measures because those tariff refunds associated with tariff costs incurred in the past have no impact to our current period earnings. Net Merger, Acquisition and Divestiture (Income) Expense: Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (income) expense primarily consists of transaction fees, professional fees, and transition and integration costs directly associated with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. It also includes business combination adjustments including adjustments after the measurement period has ended. The occurrence and amount of these costs will vary depending on the timing and size of these transactions. We exclude these charges from our non-GAAP measures to facilitate an evaluation of our current operating performance and comparisons to our past operating performance. Stock-Based Compensation: Stock-based compensation is a non-cash charge relating to stock-based awards. We exclude this expense as it is a non-cash expense, and we assess our internal operations excluding this expense and believe it facilitates comparisons to the performance of other companies. IP Litigation Expense, Net: IP litigation expense, net relates to legal costs incurred to litigate patent, trademark, copyright and false advertising infringements, or to oppose or defend against interparty actions related to intellectual property. Any settlement payment or proceeds resulting from these infringements are included or netted against the costs. We exclude these costs from our non-GAAP measures as we do not believe these costs have a direct correlation to the operations of our business and may vary in size depending on the timing and results of such litigations and settlements. Gain/Loss on Strategic Investments:Gain/loss on strategic investments includes fair value adjustments, realized gains and losses on the sales of these investments and losses on the impairment of these investments. We exclude these items from our non-GAAP measures because we do not believe they correlate to the performance of our core business and may vary in size based on market conditions and events. We believe that the exclusion of these gains or losses provides investors with a supplemental view of our operational performance. Restructuring and Other: Restructuring charges are related to one-time actions associated with workforce reductions, including severance costs, certain professional fees and other costs directly associated with resource realignments tied to strategic initiatives or changes in business conditions. We exclude this item from our non-GAAP measures when evaluating our recent and prospective business performance as such items vary significantly based on the magnitude of the action and do not reflect anticipated future operating costs. In addition, these charges do not necessarily provide meaningful insight into the fundamentals of current or past operations of our business. Income tax adjustments:Income tax adjustments include the tax effect of the non-GAAP adjustments, calculated using the appropriate statutory tax rate for each adjustment. We reassess the need for any valuation allowance recorded based on the non-GAAP profitability and have eliminated the effect of the valuation allowance recorded in the U.S. jurisdiction. We also exclude certain tax items that are not reflective of income tax expense incurred as a result of current period earnings. These certain tax items include, among other non-recurring tax items, impacts from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and stock-based compensation windfalls/shortfalls. We believe disclosure of the income tax provision before the effect of such tax items is important to permit investors' consistent earnings comparison between periods. iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of GAAP Actuals to Non-GAAP Actuals (in thousands, except per share amounts) (unaudited) For the three months ended For the twelve months ended January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019 GAAP Revenue $ 544,827 $ 426,778 $ 1,430,390 $ 1,214,010 GAAP Gross Profit $ 215,421 $ 169,370 $ 670,229 $ 543,927 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 225 2,438 1,920 11,721 Stock-based compensation 362 366 1,511 1,486 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Non-GAAP Gross Profit $ 219,539 $ 172,174 $ 637,174 $ 557,134 Non-GAAP Gross Margin 40.3% 40.3% 44.5% 45.9% GAAP Operating Expenses $ 200,151 $ 152,820 $ 523,907 $ 457,309 Amortization of acquired intangible assets (228) (255) (992) (1,051) Stock-based compensation (8,709) (4,635) (28,464) (22,258) Net merger, acquisition and divestiture (expense) income - (138) 566 (466) IP litigation expense, net (2,084) (2,582) (5,444) (2,218) Restructuring and other (10) - (2,073) - Non-GAAP Operating Expenses $ 189,120 $ 145,210 $ 487,500 $ 431,316 Non-GAAP Operating Expenses as a % of Non-GAAP Revenue 34.7% 34.0% 34.1% 35.5% GAAP Operating Income $ 15,270 $ 16,550 $ 146,322 $ 86,618 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (566) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Non-GAAP Operating Income $ 30,419 $ 26,964 $ 149,674 $ 125,818 Non-GAAP Operating Margin 5.6% 6.3% 10.5% 10.4% GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 1,691 $ 5,011 $ 40,847 $ 13,533 Tax effect of non-GAAP adjustments 3,826 1,159 (12,016) 4,648 Other tax adjustments 253 1,267 (635) 6,928 Non-GAAP Income Tax Expense $ 5,770 $ 7,437 $ 28,196 $ 25,109 GAAP Net Income $ 13,335 $ 20,041 $ 147,068 $ 85,300 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 453 2,693 2,912 12,772 Stock-based compensation 9,071 5,001 29,975 23,744 Tariff refunds 3,531 - (36,486) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - 138 (1,241) 466 IP litigation expense, net 2,084 2,582 5,444 2,218 Restructuring and other 10 - 2,073 - Gain on strategic investments (250) (8,332) (43,817) (8,904) Income tax effect (4,079) (2,426) 12,651 (11,576) Non-GAAP Net Income $ 24,155 $ 19,697 $ 118,579 $ 104,020 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.46 $ 0.70 $ 5.14 $ 2.97 Amortization of acquired intangible assets 0.02 0.09 0.10 0.44 Stock-based compensation 0.32 0.18 1.05 0.83 Tariff refunds 0.12 - (1.28) - Net merger, acquisition and divestiture expense (income) - - (0.04) 0.01 IP litigation expense, net 0.07 0.09 0.19 0.08 Restructuring and other - - 0.07 - Gain on strategic investments (0.01) (0.29) (1.53) (0.31) Income tax effect (0.14) (0.08) 0.44 (0.40) Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $ 0.84 $ 0.69 $ 4.14 $ 3.62 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculation 28,763 28,563 28,618 28,735 Section 301 Tariff Costs Section 301 tariff costs $ - $ 21,896 $ - $ 37,862 Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to gross and operating margin (GAAP & non-GAAP) - % (5.1)% - % (3.1)% Impact of Section 301 tariff costs to net (loss) income per diluted share (GAAP & non-GAAP) $ - $ (0.77) $ - $ (1.32) Supplemental Information Days sales outstanding 31 31 Days in inventory 55 56 iRobot Corporation Supplemental Reconciliation of Fiscal Year 2021 GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance (unaudited) FY-21 GAAP Gross Profit $662 - $692 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$2 million Total adjustments ~$3 million Non-GAAP Gross Profit $665 - $695 million FY-21 GAAP Operating Income $69 - $79 million Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$1 million Stock-based compensation ~$32 million IP litigation expense, net ~$8 million Total adjustments ~$41 million Non-GAAP Operating Income $110 - $120 million FY-21 GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $1.85 - $2.10 Amortization of acquired intangible assets ~$0.03 Stock-based compensation ~$1.10 IP litigation expense, net ~ $0.27 Income tax effect ~($0.25) Total adjustments ~$1.15 Non-GAAP Net Income Per Diluted Share $3.00 - $3.25 Number of shares used in diluted per share calculations ~29.1 million SOURCE iRobot Corporation Related Links http://www.irobot.com Just write a title.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> iRobot Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2020 Financial Results. 28% Revenue Growth Drives Better-than-Expected Operating Income and EPS.<|eot_id|>

(FTA) announced today that, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions, the reorganization of First Trust Mega Cap AlphaDEX Fund (Nasdaq: FMK), an index based exchange-traded fund (ETF), managed by FTA, into First Trust Dow 30 Equal Weight ETF (NYSE Arca: EDOW), an index based ETF managed by FTA, is expected to become effective immediately before the opening of the NYSE Arca on December 14, 2020. As previously announced, the shareholders of FMK and EDOW approved the FMKs reorganization into EDOW at a Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders on November 9, 2020. The reorganization was approved by the Board of Trustees of each of FMK and EDOW on January 30, 2020.

The index is the equal weight version of and seeks to measure the performance of the Dow Jones Industrial AverageTM which is composed of 30 securities issued by blue-chip U.S. companies covering all industries, with the exception of transportation and utilities. FMK is an index based ETF that seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield (before the Funds fees and expenses) of an equity index called the NASDAQ AlphaDEX Mega Cap Index. FMK pursues this investment objective by investing at least 90% of its net assets in the common stocks that comprise the index. The index is designed to select mega cap stocks from the NASDAQ US 500 Large Cap Index that may generate positive alpha, or risk-adjusted returns, relative to traditional indices through the use of the AlphaDEX selection methodology. FTA is a federally registered investment advisor and serves as the investment advisor of FMK and EDOW. FTA and its affiliate First Trust Portfolios L.P. (FTP), a FINRA registered broker-dealer, are privately-held companies that provide a variety of investment services. FTA has collective assets under management or supervision of approximately $164 billion as of November 30, 2020 through unit investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate managed accounts.

Article: NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Altice USA, Inc. (NYSE: ATUS) (Altice USA or the Company) announced today that it has commenced a modified Dutch auction tender offer to repurchase up to $2.5 billion of its Class A common stock at a price not greater than $36.00 per share nor less than $32.25 per share, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal that are being distributed to stockholders (the Offer). If the Offer is fully subscribed, the number of shares to be purchased in the Offer represents approximately 19.6% to 21.9% of Altice USAs issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock (or approximately 12.8% to 14.3% of Altice USAs total outstanding shares including both Class A and Class B common stock) as of November 19, 2020 depending on the purchase price payable for those shares pursuant to the Offer. The Offer represents a premium of approximately 0% to 12% to the NYSE closing price of the shares on November 20, 2020 of $32.27 per share. With this Offer, Altice USA is increasing its buyback target for full year 2020 from $2.0 billion to approximately $5.0 billion. From October 1, 2020 to November 20, 2020, the Company repurchased 22,677,812 Class A shares pursuant to its share repurchase program at an average cost of $29.10 per share for approximately $660 million (a total amount of approximately $2.5 billion year-to-date). As a result of the Offer, the Company now expects its 2020 year-end net leverage for the CSC Holdings, LLC debt silo to be between 5.0x to 5.5x Adjusted EBITDA (on a L2QA basis). The Company expects to return to its net leverage target for CSC Holdings, LLC of 4.5x to 5.0x over time. On November 20, 2020, the Altice USA Board of Directors increased the capacity under the Companys existing share repurchase program from $5.0 billion to $7.0 billion in the aggregate of Class A shares to facilitate the Offer and any subsequent additional share repurchases (commencing at least ten business days following the expiration or termination of the Offer). As of November 23, 2020, the capacity under the Companys upsized share repurchase program was approximately $4.3 billion, or approximately $1.8 billion after the assumed repurchase of $2.5 billion of Class A shares pursuant to the Offer. The Offer will expire at one (1) minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on Monday, December 21, 2020, unless extended by Altice USA. Tenders of shares must be made prior to the expiration of the Offer and may be withdrawn at any time prior to the expiration of the Offer. The Offer will not be conditioned upon any minimum number of shares being tendered; however, the Offer is subject to a number of terms and conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including the closing of the Companys sale of 49.99% of its Lightpath fiber enterprise business. Tendering stockholders may specify a price not greater than $36.00 per share nor less than $32.25 per share (in increments of $0.25) at which they are willing to sell their shares pursuant to the Offer. On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Company will designate a single per share price that the Company will pay for shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn from the Offer, taking into account the total number of shares tendered and the prices specified by tendering stockholders. The Company will select the lowest purchase price, not greater than $36.00 per share nor less than $32.25 per share, that will allow it to purchase shares having an aggregate purchase price of $2.5 billion, or a lower amount depending on the number of shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn (such purchase price, the Final Purchase Price). Only shares validly tendered at prices at or below the Final Purchase Price, and not properly withdrawn, will be eligible for purchase in the Offer. All shares acquired in the Offer will be acquired at the Final Purchase Price, including those shares tendered at a price lower than the Final Purchase Price. However, due to the odd lot priority, proration and conditional tender offer provisions described in the Offer to Purchase, all of the shares tendered may not be purchased if the number of shares properly tendered at or below the Final Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn have an aggregate value in excess of $2.5 billion (based on the Final Purchase Price). The Company will purchase only those shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn upon the terms and conditions of the Offer. All shares accepted for payment will be paid promptly after the expiration of the Offer period, to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest. At the maximum Final Purchase Price of $36.00 per share, the Company would purchase 69,444,444 shares if the Offer is fully subscribed, which would represent approximately 12.8% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock as of November 19, 2020. At the minimum Final Purchase Price of $32.25 per share, the Company would purchase 77,519,379 shares if the Offer is fully subscribed, which would represent approximately 14.3% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock as of November 19, 2020. Shares not purchased in the Offer will be returned at the Companys expense promptly following the expiration of the Offer. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change the per share purchase price options and to increase or decrease the aggregate value of shares sought in the Offer, subject to applicable law. In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Company may purchase in the Offer up to an additional 2% of its outstanding shares without amending or extending the Offer. The Company intends to pay for the purchase of the shares with cash on hand, cash from operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The Information Agent for the Offer is D.F. King & Co., Inc. The Depositary is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC. The Offer to Purchase, Letter of Transmittal and related documents are being mailed to stockholders of record and also will be made available for distribution to beneficial owners of shares.

Tendering stockholders may specify a price not greater than $36.00 per share nor less than $32.25 per share (in increments of $0.25) at which they are willing to sell their shares pursuant to the Offer. On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Company will designate a single per share price that the Company will pay for shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn from the Offer, taking into account the total number of shares tendered and the prices specified by tendering stockholders. The Company will select the lowest purchase price, not greater than $36.00 per share nor less than $32.25 per share, that will allow it to purchase shares having an aggregate purchase price of $2.5 billion, or a lower amount depending on the number of shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn (such purchase price, the Final Purchase Price). Only shares validly tendered at prices at or below the Final Purchase Price, and not properly withdrawn, will be eligible for purchase in the Offer. All shares acquired in the Offer will be acquired at the Final Purchase Price, including those shares tendered at a price lower than the Final Purchase Price. However, due to the odd lot priority, proration and conditional tender offer provisions described in the Offer to Purchase, all of the shares tendered may not be purchased if the number of shares properly tendered at or below the Final Purchase Price and not properly withdrawn have an aggregate value in excess of $2.5 billion (based on the Final Purchase Price). The Company will purchase only those shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn upon the terms and conditions of the Offer. All shares accepted for payment will be paid promptly after the expiration of the Offer period, to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest. At the maximum Final Purchase Price of $36.00 per share, the Company would purchase 69,444,444 shares if the Offer is fully subscribed, which would represent approximately 12.8% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock as of November 19, 2020. At the minimum Final Purchase Price of $32.25 per share, the Company would purchase 77,519,379 shares if the Offer is fully subscribed, which would represent approximately 14.3% of the total issued and outstanding shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock as of November 19, 2020. Shares not purchased in the Offer will be returned at the Companys expense promptly following the expiration of the Offer. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change the per share purchase price options and to increase or decrease the aggregate value of shares sought in the Offer, subject to applicable law. In accordance with the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Company may purchase in the Offer up to an additional 2% of its outstanding shares without amending or extending the Offer. The Company intends to pay for the purchase of the shares with cash on hand, cash from operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

(NASDAQ: LMNL) (TSX: LMNL) ("Liminal BioSciences" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that Prometic Plasma Resources, a subsidiary of Liminal BioSciences, has commenced the collection of convalescent plasma from donors who have recovered from COVID-19. "Recent published studies have indicated immune globulin and hyperimmune globulin therapy to have the potential to be one of the treatment options for patients with COVID-19. We are proud to be collecting COVID-19 convalescent plasma to be potentially used in the manufacture of hyperimmune immunoglobulins by third parties and be a part of this historic effort which aims to accelerate a reliable, scalable and sustainable option for patients suffering from the impact of COVID-19.", stated Kenneth Galbraith, Chief Executive Officer of Liminal BioSciences. "We expect that developing a hyperimmune will require third parties to collect plasma donations from many individuals who have fully recovered from COVID-19 and we encourage anyone who has recovered from COVID-19 without symptoms for 14 days to come forward and donate plasma to this worthy cause." Individuals interested in donating plasma can visit the nearest licensed plasma collection center to their location. For more information visit plasma.prometic.com. About Liminal BioSciences Inc.Liminal BioSciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel treatments for patients suffering from diseases related to fibrosis, including respiratory, liver and kidney diseases that have high unmet medical need. Liminal BioSciences has a deep understanding of certain biological targets and pathways that have been implicated in the fibrotic process, including fatty acid receptors such as FFAR1, or GPR40, G-protein-coupled receptor 84, or GPR84, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, or PPARs. In preclinical studies, we observed that targeting these receptors promoted normal tissue regeneration and scar resolution, including preventing the progression of and reversing established fibrosis. We also have encouraging clinical data that we believe supports the translatability of our preclinical data observations to the clinic. We have leveraged this understanding, as well as our experience with generating small molecules, to build a pipeline of differentiated product candidates. Our lead small molecule product candidate, fezagepras (PBI-4050), is expected to enter an additional Phase 1 clinical trial in 2H-2020 to evaluate multiple ascending doses of fezagepras in healthy volunteers, at daily dose exposures higher than those previously evaluated in our completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. Liminal BioSciences has also leveraged its experience in bioseparation technologies through its subsidiary Prometic Bioproduction Inc. to isolate and purify biopharmaceuticals from human plasma. Our lead plasma-derived product candidate is Ryplazim(plasminogen), for which the Company expects to resubmit a BLA in Q3-2020 with the FDA seeking approval to treat patients with congenital plasminogen deficiency. Prometic Plasma Resources operates two plasma collection centers in North America managed by a team of qualified professionals with decades of experience in the field of plasma collection. Our Canadian center located in Winnipeg, Manitoba is licensed by the FDA and Health Canada, and is certified by the European Union and the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA). Our American center located in Amherst, New York is licensed by the State of New York and its' BLA submission is currently under review by the FDA. Liminal BioSciences has active business operations in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States. Forward Looking StatementThis press release contains forward-looking statements about Liminal BioSciences' objectives, strategies and businesses that involve risks and uncertainties. Forwardlooking information includes statements concerning, among other things, statements with respect to the timing of any planned BLA resubmission, development of R&D programs, the timing of initiation of clinical trials, the exploration of alternatives for the future commercialization of Ryplazim, if approved, including through a third-party marketing collaboration, and the potential commercial launch of Ryplazim, if approved. These statements are "forward-looking" because they are based on our current expectations about the markets we operate in and on various estimates and assumptions. Actual events or results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements if known or unknown risks affect our business, or if our estimates or assumptions turn out to be inaccurate.

(NASDAQ: LMNL) (TSX: LMNL) ("Liminal BioSciences" or the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that Prometic Plasma Resources, a subsidiary of Liminal BioSciences, has commenced the collection of convalescent plasma from donors who have recovered from COVID-19. "Recent published studies have indicated immune globulin and hyperimmune globulin therapy to have the potential to be one of the treatment options for patients with COVID-19. We are proud to be collecting COVID-19 convalescent plasma to be potentially used in the manufacture of hyperimmune immunoglobulins by third parties and be a part of this historic effort which aims to accelerate a reliable, scalable and sustainable option for patients suffering from the impact of COVID-19.", stated Kenneth Galbraith, Chief Executive Officer of Liminal BioSciences. "We expect that developing a hyperimmune will require third parties to collect plasma donations from many individuals who have fully recovered from COVID-19 and we encourage anyone who has recovered from COVID-19 without symptoms for 14 days to come forward and donate plasma to this worthy cause." Individuals interested in donating plasma can visit the nearest licensed plasma collection center to their location. For more information visit plasma.prometic.com. About Liminal BioSciences Inc.Liminal BioSciences is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel treatments for patients suffering from diseases related to fibrosis, including respiratory, liver and kidney diseases that have high unmet medical need. Liminal BioSciences has a deep understanding of certain biological targets and pathways that have been implicated in the fibrotic process, including fatty acid receptors such as FFAR1, or GPR40, G-protein-coupled receptor 84, or GPR84, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, or PPARs. In preclinical studies, we observed that targeting these receptors promoted normal tissue regeneration and scar resolution, including preventing the progression of and reversing established fibrosis. We also have encouraging clinical data that we believe supports the translatability of our preclinical data observations to the clinic. We have leveraged this understanding, as well as our experience with generating small molecules, to build a pipeline of differentiated product candidates. Our lead small molecule product candidate, fezagepras (PBI-4050), is expected to enter an additional Phase 1 clinical trial in 2H-2020 to evaluate multiple ascending doses of fezagepras in healthy volunteers, at daily dose exposures higher than those previously evaluated in our completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. Liminal BioSciences has also leveraged its experience in bioseparation technologies through its subsidiary Prometic Bioproduction Inc. to isolate and purify biopharmaceuticals from human plasma. Our lead plasma-derived product candidate is Ryplazim(plasminogen), for which the Company expects to resubmit a BLA in Q3-2020 with the FDA seeking approval to treat patients with congenital plasminogen deficiency. Prometic Plasma Resources operates two plasma collection centers in North America managed by a team of qualified professionals with decades of experience in the field of plasma collection. Our Canadian center located in Winnipeg, Manitoba is licensed by the FDA and Health Canada, and is certified by the European Union and the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA). Our American center located in Amherst, New York is licensed by the State of New York and its' BLA submission is currently under review by the FDA. Liminal BioSciences has active business operations in Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Article: STOCKHOLM, July 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sweden-based localization and software company LocalizeDirect announces an investment of SEK10,264,530 (USD1,130,802) from Entreprenrinvest, owned by The IKEA Family Foundation and a number of Swedish venture capital firms and private individuals, including Innovum Invest. Former investors also participated in the financing round. Jan Andersson, a founder and former CEO of ReadSoft (now Kofax), will join LocalizeDirect's Board of Directors. The funding will support the launch and development of Gridly - a collaborative headless CMS for multilingual game projects. Gridly is currently in beta and will be released in September 2020. "The trend we've seen for the last few years is a shift to a continuous development of games - games as a service. Instead of a one-time launch, developers now push out new content frequently, often on a weekly basis, in multiple languages. Managing game data (such as strings, IAP, gameplay variables) for agile multiplatform and multilanguage releases is time-consuming and can rapidly spiral out of control. Gridly facilitates this process, allowing the product teams to cooperate more efficiently time- and cost-wise," says LocalizeDirect's Managing Director Christoffer Nilsson. Gridly has an open API, spreadsheet UI and features version control, branching, granular user access control and localization support. LocalizeDirect offers development companies plans depending on their project's sizes, starting with a free tier. "The demand for agile, high-quality localization technology and services will continue to grow. It is already a key success factor in the game industry, but it is evident that the need for localization also grows fast in many other areas. LocalizeDirect is very well positioned to grow in this market and Gridly has the potential to become the preferred solution for many companies in many industries," Jan Andersson, the Board Member of Entreprenrinvest and Innovum Invest underlines. About LocalizeDirect:LocalizeDirect is a Swedish localization and technology company. Founded in 2009, it now provides game translation, LQA, and CMS services for the game development industry in over 65 language pairs. LocalizeDirect is based in Sweden and Vietnam with a number of sales, localization & QA managers working across the globe. Find out more about Gridly at www.gridly.com About Entreprenrinvest: Entreprenrinvest is wholly owned by The IKEA Family Foundation.

LocalizeDirect Raises $1.1 Million for Gridly - a Headless CMS Tailor-made for Game Developers. Gridly is the response to industry requirements as it shifts to games as a service model.
STOCKHOLM, July 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sweden-based localization and software company LocalizeDirect announces an investment of SEK10,264,530 (USD1,130,802) from Entreprenrinvest, owned by The IKEA Family Foundation and a number of Swedish venture capital firms and private individuals, including Innovum Invest. Former investors also participated in the financing round. Jan Andersson, a founder and former CEO of ReadSoft (now Kofax), will join LocalizeDirect's Board of Directors. The funding will support the launch and development of Gridly - a collaborative headless CMS for multilingual game projects. Gridly is currently in beta and will be released in September 2020. "The trend we've seen for the last few years is a shift to a continuous development of games - games as a service. Instead of a one-time launch, developers now push out new content frequently, often on a weekly basis, in multiple languages. Managing game data (such as strings, IAP, gameplay variables) for agile multiplatform and multilanguage releases is time-consuming and can rapidly spiral out of control. Gridly facilitates this process, allowing the product teams to cooperate more efficiently time- and cost-wise," says LocalizeDirect's Managing Director Christoffer Nilsson. Gridly has an open API, spreadsheet UI and features version control, branching, granular user access control and localization support. LocalizeDirect offers development companies plans depending on their project's sizes, starting with a free tier. "The demand for agile, high-quality localization technology and services will continue to grow. It is already a key success factor in the game industry, but it is evident that the need for localization also grows fast in many other areas. LocalizeDirect is very well positioned to grow in this market and Gridly has the potential to become the preferred solution for many companies in many industries," Jan Andersson, the Board Member of Entreprenrinvest and Innovum Invest underlines. About LocalizeDirect:LocalizeDirect is a Swedish localization and technology company. Founded in 2009, it now provides game translation, LQA, and CMS services for the game development industry in over 65 language pairs. LocalizeDirect is based in Sweden and Vietnam with a number of sales, localization & QA managers working across the globe.

Management Comment: Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems, commented:"I am pleased with the third quarter results, particularly with the improved operating performance in this challenging COVID-19 environment and despite the pandemic's impact on our Commercial Aviation business, which resulted in a $60 million non-cash impairment of assets in the quarter. We are encouraged by our backlog of orders and the volume of opportunities we are facing around the world, which provides us with confidence in the Company's future prospects."

COVID-19 has had significant negative impacts on the worldwide economy, resulting in disruptions to supply chains and financial markets, significant travel restrictions, facility closures and shelter-in-place orders in various locations. Elbit Systems is closely monitoring the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the Company's employees, customers and suppliers, as well as on the global economy. As we last reported on August 13, 2020, we have been taking a number of actions to protect the safety of our employees as well as maintain business continuity and secure our supply chain. We also reported on a number of activities where we are leveraging our technological capabilities to assist hospital staffs and other first responders protecting our communities from the impact of the pandemic. All of these actions remain ongoing. We have implemented a series of cost control measures to help limit the financial impact of the pandemic on the Company, in parallel to the measures we are taking to maintain business continuity and deliveries to our customers. We also are working on efficiency initiatives with a number of our suppliers. We continue to evaluate our operations on an ongoing basis in order to adapt to the evolving business environment. During the first three quarters of 2020 our defense activities, which account for most of our business, were not materially impacted by the pandemic, although some of our businesses are experiencing certain disruptions due to government directed safety measures, travel restrictions and supply chain delays. The significant slowdown in commercial air traffic, and the expectation that a commercial air traffic recovery to 2019 levels will likely take a number of years, have reduced the demand for products and services for the commercial aviation markets. Additionally, manufacturers of aircrafts for these markets have announced plans to reduce production rates to adapt to the lower demand. Following a review of the economic impact on the Company's assets overall, and those assets impacted by the commercial aviation industry in particular, the Company recorded in the third quarter of 2020 non-cash expenses related to impairment of assets and inventory write-offs, due to COVID-19, in the amount of approximately $60 million. These expenses were recorded mainly in the 'Cost of Revenues' line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income and were eliminated in the non-GAAP results as a category of expenses that are not part of the Company's recurring business. We believe that as of September 30, 2020, Elbit Systems had a healthy balance sheet, adequate levels of cash and access to credit facilities that provide liquidity when necessary. We have given high priority to cash management and adequate cash reserves to run the business. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance depends on future developments including the duration and spread of the pandemic, the measures adopted by governments to limit the spread of the pandemic and resulting actions that may be taken by our customers and our supply chain, all of which are uncertain. As noted in our annual report on Form 20-F, the preparation of financial reports such as our quarterly financial results requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. For our quarterly financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we considered the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our critical and significant accounting estimates. The expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material effect on our judgments, assumptions and estimates reflected in the results. However, our future results may differ materially from our estimates. As events continue to evolve in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the estimates we use in future periods may change materially. *Non-GAAP financial data: The following non-GAAP financial data is presented to enable investors to have additional information on the Company's business performance as well as a further basis for periodical comparisons and trends relating to the Company's financial results. The Company believes such data provides useful information to investors by facilitating more meaningful comparisons of the Company's financial results over time. Such non-GAAP information is used by the Company's management to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate the Company's current performance. However, investors are cautioned that, unlike financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, non-GAAP measures may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies. The non-GAAP financial data includes reconciliation adjustments regarding non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, net income and diluted EPS. In arriving at non-GAAP presentations, companies generally factor out items such as those that have a non-recurring impact on the income statements, various non-cash items including significant exchange rate differences, significant effects of retroactive tax legislation, changes in accounting guidance, financial transactions and other items not considered to be part of regular ongoing business, which, in management's judgment, are items that are considered to be outside of the review of core operating results. In the Company's non-GAAP presentation, the Company made certain adjustments, as indicated in the table below. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Unless otherwise stated, all financial data presented is GAAP financial data. Management Comment: Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems, commented:"I am pleased with the third quarter results, particularly with the improved operating performance in this challenging COVID-19 environment and despite the pandemic's impact on our Commercial Aviation business, which resulted in a $60 million non-cash impairment of assets in the quarter. We are encouraged by our backlog of orders and the volume of opportunities we are facing around the world, which provides us with confidence in the Company's future prospects."

The decrease in GAAP gross profit in the third quarter of 2020 was a result of non-cash expenses related to impairment of assets and inventory write-offs due to the impact of COVID-19, in the amount of approximately $60 million. These expenses were eliminated in the non-GAAP results.

COVID-19 has had significant negative impacts on the worldwide economy, resulting in disruptions to supply chains and financial markets, significant travel restrictions, facility closures and shelter-in-place orders in various locations. Elbit Systems is closely monitoring the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the Company's employees, customers and suppliers, as well as on the global economy. As we last reported on August 13, 2020, we have been taking a number of actions to protect the safety of our employees as well as maintain business continuity and secure our supply chain. We also reported on a number of activities where we are leveraging our technological capabilities to assist hospital staffs and other first responders protecting our communities from the impact of the pandemic. All of these actions remain ongoing. We have implemented a series of cost control measures to help limit the financial impact of the pandemic on the Company, in parallel to the measures we are taking to maintain business continuity and deliveries to our customers. We also are working on efficiency initiatives with a number of our suppliers. We continue to evaluate our operations on an ongoing basis in order to adapt to the evolving business environment. During the first three quarters of 2020 our defense activities, which account for most of our business, were not materially impacted by the pandemic, although some of our businesses are experiencing certain disruptions due to government directed safety measures, travel restrictions and supply chain delays. The significant slowdown in commercial air traffic, and the expectation that a commercial air traffic recovery to 2019 levels will likely take a number of years, have reduced the demand for products and services for the commercial aviation markets. Additionally, manufacturers of aircrafts for these markets have announced plans to reduce production rates to adapt to the lower demand. Following a review of the economic impact on the Company's assets overall, and those assets impacted by the commercial aviation industry in particular, the Company recorded in the third quarter of 2020 non-cash expenses related to impairment of assets and inventory write-offs, due to COVID-19, in the amount of approximately $60 million. These expenses were recorded mainly in the 'Cost of Revenues' line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income and were eliminated in the non-GAAP results as a category of expenses that are not part of the Company's recurring business. We believe that as of September 30, 2020, Elbit Systems had a healthy balance sheet, adequate levels of cash and access to credit facilities that provide liquidity when necessary. We have given high priority to cash management and adequate cash reserves to run the business. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance depends on future developments including the duration and spread of the pandemic, the measures adopted by governments to limit the spread of the pandemic and resulting actions that may be taken by our customers and our supply chain, all of which are uncertain. As noted in our annual report on Form 20-F, the preparation of financial reports such as our quarterly financial results requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. For our quarterly financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we considered the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our critical and significant accounting estimates. The expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material effect on our judgments, assumptions and estimates reflected in the results. However, our future results may differ materially from our estimates. As events continue to evolve in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the estimates we use in future periods may change materially. *Non-GAAP financial data: The following non-GAAP financial data is presented to enable investors to have additional information on the Company's business performance as well as a further basis for periodical comparisons and trends relating to the Company's financial results. The Company believes such data provides useful information to investors by facilitating more meaningful comparisons of the Company's financial results over time. Such non-GAAP information is used by the Company's management to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate the Company's current performance. However, investors are cautioned that, unlike financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, non-GAAP measures may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies. The non-GAAP financial data includes reconciliation adjustments regarding non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, net income and diluted EPS. In arriving at non-GAAP presentations, companies generally factor out items such as those that have a non-recurring impact on the income statements, various non-cash items including significant exchange rate differences, significant effects of retroactive tax legislation, changes in accounting guidance, financial transactions and other items not considered to be part of regular ongoing business, which, in management's judgment, are items that are considered to be outside of the review of core operating results. In the Company's non-GAAP presentation, the Company made certain adjustments, as indicated in the table below. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In 2019 the expenses are related to acquisition of a subsidiary in the U.S. Recent Events: On August 17, 2020, the Company announced that it was awarded a contract valued at approximately $27 million to supply air-to-air combat training systems for the Navy of a South Asian Country. The contract will be performed over a two-year period, to be followed by three years of availability-based maintenance. On August 31, 2020, the Company announced that its U.S. subsidiary, Elbit Systems of America, LLC ("Elbit Systems of America"), was awarded an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity ("ID/IQ") contract by the Defense Logistics Agency Land to supply the U.S. Army with gunner hand stations, commander hand stations and circuit cards for the Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle. The contract, with a maximum value of up to approximately $79 million, will be performed over a five-year period. An initial purchase order of approximately $26 million under the ID/IQ contract followed by a second purchase order of approximately $12 million have been issued to be executed over a three-year period. On September 14, 2020, the Company announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Elbit Systems - Cyclone Ltd., was awarded a contract by Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) for the manufacture of assemblies for Forward Equipment Bay assemblies for the F-35 fighter aircraft.

On October 26, 2020, the Company announced that, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Elbit Systems experienced reduced demand for the products and services it supplies to the commercial aviation markets. The significant slowdown in commercial air traffic, and the expectation that a commercial air traffic recovery to 2019 levels will likely take a number of years, have reduced the demand for products and services for the commercial aviation markets. Additionally, manufacturers of aircraft for these markets have announced plans to reduce production rates to adapt to the lower demand. Following a review of the economic impact on the Company's assets overall, and those assets impacted by the commercial aviation industry in particular, the Company recorded in the third quarter of 2020 non-cash expenses related to impairment of assets and inventory write-offs, due to COVID-19, in the amount of approximately $60 million. These expenses were recorded mainly in the "Cost of Revenues" line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income and were eliminated in the non-GAAP results as a category of expenses that are not part of the Company's regular on-going business.

This reorganization will begin in the coming months and be completed during 2021. Dividend: The Board of Directors declared a dividend of $0.44 per share for the third quarter of 2020.

Article: HAIFA, Israel, Nov. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Elbit Systems Ltd. (NASDAQ: ESLT) (TASE: ESLT)(the "Company" or "Elbit Systems"), the international high technology company, reported today its consolidated results for the quarter ended September30, 2020. In this release, the Company is providing US-GAAP results as well as additional non-GAAP financial data, which are intended to provide investors a more comprehensive understanding of the Company's business results and trends. Unless otherwise stated, all financial data presented is GAAP financial data. Management Comment: Bezhalel (Butzi) Machlis, President and CEO of Elbit Systems, commented:"I am pleased with the third quarter results, particularly with the improved operating performance in this challenging COVID-19 environment and despite the pandemic's impact on our Commercial Aviation business, which resulted in a $60 million non-cash impairment of assets in the quarter. We are encouraged by our backlog of orders and the volume of opportunities we are facing around the world, which provides us with confidence in the Company's future prospects." Third Quarter 2020 Results: Revenues in the third quarter of 2020were $1,134.2 million, as compared to $1,101.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. Non-GAAP(*) gross profit amounted to $302.3 million (26.7% of revenues) in the third quarter of 2020, as compared to $290.0 million (26.3% of revenues) in the third quarter of 2019. GAAP gross profit in the third quarter of 2020 was $237.4 million (20.9% of revenues), as compared to $286.2 million (26.0% of revenues) in the third quarter of 2019.

COVID-19 has had significant negative impacts on the worldwide economy, resulting in disruptions to supply chains and financial markets, significant travel restrictions, facility closures and shelter-in-place orders in various locations. Elbit Systems is closely monitoring the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on the Company's employees, customers and suppliers, as well as on the global economy. As we last reported on August 13, 2020, we have been taking a number of actions to protect the safety of our employees as well as maintain business continuity and secure our supply chain. We also reported on a number of activities where we are leveraging our technological capabilities to assist hospital staffs and other first responders protecting our communities from the impact of the pandemic. All of these actions remain ongoing. We have implemented a series of cost control measures to help limit the financial impact of the pandemic on the Company, in parallel to the measures we are taking to maintain business continuity and deliveries to our customers. We also are working on efficiency initiatives with a number of our suppliers. We continue to evaluate our operations on an ongoing basis in order to adapt to the evolving business environment. During the first three quarters of 2020 our defense activities, which account for most of our business, were not materially impacted by the pandemic, although some of our businesses are experiencing certain disruptions due to government directed safety measures, travel restrictions and supply chain delays. The significant slowdown in commercial air traffic, and the expectation that a commercial air traffic recovery to 2019 levels will likely take a number of years, have reduced the demand for products and services for the commercial aviation markets. Additionally, manufacturers of aircrafts for these markets have announced plans to reduce production rates to adapt to the lower demand. Following a review of the economic impact on the Company's assets overall, and those assets impacted by the commercial aviation industry in particular, the Company recorded in the third quarter of 2020 non-cash expenses related to impairment of assets and inventory write-offs, due to COVID-19, in the amount of approximately $60 million. These expenses were recorded mainly in the 'Cost of Revenues' line item in the Consolidated Statement of Income and were eliminated in the non-GAAP results as a category of expenses that are not part of the Company's recurring business. We believe that as of September 30, 2020, Elbit Systems had a healthy balance sheet, adequate levels of cash and access to credit facilities that provide liquidity when necessary. We have given high priority to cash management and adequate cash reserves to run the business. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's performance depends on future developments including the duration and spread of the pandemic, the measures adopted by governments to limit the spread of the pandemic and resulting actions that may be taken by our customers and our supply chain, all of which are uncertain. As noted in our annual report on Form 20-F, the preparation of financial reports such as our quarterly financial results requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported. For our quarterly financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we considered the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our critical and significant accounting estimates. The expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic did not have a material effect on our judgments, assumptions and estimates reflected in the results. However, our future results may differ materially from our estimates. As events continue to evolve in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, the estimates we use in future periods may change materially. *Non-GAAP financial data: The following non-GAAP financial data is presented to enable investors to have additional information on the Company's business performance as well as a further basis for periodical comparisons and trends relating to the Company's financial results. The Company believes such data provides useful information to investors by facilitating more meaningful comparisons of the Company's financial results over time. Such non-GAAP information is used by the Company's management to make strategic decisions, forecast future results and evaluate the Company's current performance. However, investors are cautioned that, unlike financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, non-GAAP measures may not be comparable with the calculation of similar measures for other companies. The non-GAAP financial data includes reconciliation adjustments regarding non-GAAP gross profit, operating income, net income and diluted EPS. In arriving at non-GAAP presentations, companies generally factor out items such as those that have a non-recurring impact on the income statements, various non-cash items including significant exchange rate differences, significant effects of retroactive tax legislation, changes in accounting guidance, financial transactions and other items not considered to be part of regular ongoing business, which, in management's judgment, are items that are considered to be outside of the review of core operating results. In the Company's non-GAAP presentation, the Company made certain adjustments, as indicated in the table below. These non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all of the amounts associated with the Company's results of operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and that these measures should only be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.Investors should consider non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, and not as replacements for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Article: DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Industrial Refrigeration Systems Market Research Report: By Equipment Type, Refrigerant Type, Application - Global Industry Analysis and Growth Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The major factors driving the growth of the industrial refrigeration systems market are the expansion of the food and beverage processing sector in emerging economies, the advance of the cold chain industry, and the rise in the demand for refrigeration solutions among pharmaceutical and chemical companies. As a result of all these factors, the industry is expected to grow from $26.8 billion in 2019 to $41.1 billion in 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 5.0% between 2020 and 2030 (forecast period). Condensers, controls, evaporators, and compressors are the various categories under the equipment type segment. Among these, the compressor category led the industrial refrigeration systems market during the historical period (2014-2019). Being the component that actually provides the cooling, compressors account for anywhere between 25% and 35% of the cost of a complete refrigeration unit designed for industries. In the coming years, the controls category would grow the fastest, as the demand for energy efficiency and operational cost savings is driving the installation of control systems. The divisions under the refrigerant type segment of the industrial refrigeration systems market are hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), ammonia (NH3), and carbon dioxide (CO2). During the forecast period, the highest CAGR is projected to be witnessed by the CO2 category, as the gas is non-flammable, as well as less toxic. Termed as a natural refrigerant, the gas causes extremely little harm to the environment, if it is accidentally released from the refrigeration system. The adoption of eco-friendly refrigerants, such as CO2, is one of the key trends in the market presently. Owing to the high rate of ozone depletion, several laws have been implemented around the world to replace conventional refrigerants with natural and environment-friendly variants. For instance, the F-Gas Regulation of the European Union, which came into force in 2015, seeks to do away with the use of high-global-warming-potential (GWP) gases as refrigerants. The growth of the food and beverage processing industry in emerging economies is a significant reason for the industrial refrigeration systems market growth. With the increasing demand for processed and ready-to-eat products, food processing firms are seeing brisk business in developing countries. For instance, the food and beverage processing industry of India, which is the fifth-largest in the world, is receiving government support under the Make in India initiative. Under its 11th and 12th five-year plans, the central government has sanctioned the development of 40 mega food parks. Another reason the market for industrial refrigeration systems is expanding is the increasing demand for such systems in the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors. Refrigeration is quite important in the pharma, refining, and petrochemical sectors, as the products here need to be stored at specific temperatures to prevent spoilage. For instance, biologics, drugs, and certain medical devices need to be stored at low temperatures. With the increasing prevalence of various diseases, the demand for drugs is rising, thereby driving the demand for refrigeration solutions in the pharma industry. During the historical period, Asia-Pacific (APAC) was the largest industrial refrigeration system market, and it will also advance the fastest during the forecast period.

Global Industrial Refrigeration Systems Market (2020 to 2030) - by Equipment Type, Refrigerant Type, and Application - ResearchAndMarkets.com.
DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Industrial Refrigeration Systems Market Research Report: By Equipment Type, Refrigerant Type, Application - Global Industry Analysis and Growth Forecast to 2030" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The major factors driving the growth of the industrial refrigeration systems market are the expansion of the food and beverage processing sector in emerging economies, the advance of the cold chain industry, and the rise in the demand for refrigeration solutions among pharmaceutical and chemical companies. As a result of all these factors, the industry is expected to grow from $26.8 billion in 2019 to $41.1 billion in 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 5.0% between 2020 and 2030 (forecast period). Condensers, controls, evaporators, and compressors are the various categories under the equipment type segment. Among these, the compressor category led the industrial refrigeration systems market during the historical period (2014-2019). Being the component that actually provides the cooling, compressors account for anywhere between 25% and 35% of the cost of a complete refrigeration unit designed for industries. In the coming years, the controls category would grow the fastest, as the demand for energy efficiency and operational cost savings is driving the installation of control systems. The divisions under the refrigerant type segment of the industrial refrigeration systems market are hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), ammonia (NH3), and carbon dioxide (CO2). During the forecast period, the highest CAGR is projected to be witnessed by the CO2 category, as the gas is non-flammable, as well as less toxic. Termed as a natural refrigerant, the gas causes extremely little harm to the environment, if it is accidentally released from the refrigeration system. The adoption of eco-friendly refrigerants, such as CO2, is one of the key trends in the market presently. Owing to the high rate of ozone depletion, several laws have been implemented around the world to replace conventional refrigerants with natural and environment-friendly variants. For instance, the F-Gas Regulation of the European Union, which came into force in 2015, seeks to do away with the use of high-global-warming-potential (GWP) gases as refrigerants. The growth of the food and beverage processing industry in emerging economies is a significant reason for the industrial refrigeration systems market growth. With the increasing demand for processed and ready-to-eat products, food processing firms are seeing brisk business in developing countries. For instance, the food and beverage processing industry of India, which is the fifth-largest in the world, is receiving government support under the Make in India initiative. Under its 11th and 12th five-year plans, the central government has sanctioned the development of 40 mega food parks. Another reason the market for industrial refrigeration systems is expanding is the increasing demand for such systems in the pharmaceutical and chemical sectors. Refrigeration is quite important in the pharma, refining, and petrochemical sectors, as the products here need to be stored at specific temperatures to prevent spoilage. For instance, biologics, drugs, and certain medical devices need to be stored at low temperatures. With the increasing prevalence of various diseases, the demand for drugs is rising, thereby driving the demand for refrigeration solutions in the pharma industry. During the historical period, Asia-Pacific (APAC) was the largest industrial refrigeration system market, and it will also advance the fastest during the forecast period. This is attributed to the growth of the cold chain, where refrigeration is everything. For long-distance transportation of medical, chemical, and agricultural goods, it is imperative they remain refrigerated. The Indian government announced plans to execute 27 new integrated cold chain projects, worth $67.1 million (INR 743 crore), in September 2020.

Article: CAMBRIDGE, Mass. & LAUSANNE, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Anokion SA, a Swiss biotechnology company focused on treating autoimmune disease by restoring normal immune tolerance, today announced that the company has initiated patient dosing in the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of its ACeD study (Assessment of KAN-101 in Celiac Disease), a Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating KAN-101 for the treatment of individuals with celiac disease. Initiation of the MAD cohort enrollment follows completion of the first two single-ascending dose (SAD) cohorts in the trial, with the third SAD cohort actively dosing patients. KAN-101, Anokions lead antigen-specific drug product candidate, aims to re-educate immune cells to not respond to gluten antigens. The ACeD study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 1 trial that will enroll a total of up to 40 patients with celiac disease who are on a gluten free diet. The study is composed of two parts. In Part A, patients enrolled will receive a single dose of KAN-101 across four SAD cohorts. Upon completion of the second SAD cohort, the company initiated Part B, in which patients enrolled will each receive three doses of either KAN-101 or placebo across three MAD cohorts. Celiac disease is a serious autoimmune disorder that results in severe and life-altering symptoms in patients when not managed properly. With no approved treatments today, symptoms can only be managed through a burdensome, gluten-free diet, said Deborah Geraghty, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Anokion. We are excited to advance our Phase 1 trial to the MAD portion, which will provide important information on the potential effects of repeat dosing of KAN-101 in our target patient population. By restoring natural immune tolerance, we believe KAN-101 could significantly impact the treatment of patients with celiac disease, and we look forward to assessing initial data and advancing this program later this year. The primary endpoint of the ACeD trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of KAN-101 in patients, and the secondary endpoint is to assess serum concentrations and pharmacokinetics of KAN-101. Exploratory endpoints include assessing cytokines critical to both innate and adaptive immunity, T cell responses, as well as other serum cytokines and celiac disease symptoms in patients treated with KAN-101. Anokion anticipates reporting preliminary safety and pharmacokinetic data from the SAD cohorts of ACeD later this year. Additional information about the ACeD trial can be found at: www.ACeDtrial.com About KAN-101 KAN-101, an investigational medicine being developed for the treatment of celiac disease, is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial (ACeD study). KAN-101 encompasses a well-described gluten antigen implicated in driving the onset of celiac disease and is designed to re-educate the immune system by targeting the bodys own natural immune pathways in the liver. Anokion has generated preclinical data demonstrating potentially durable, disease-modifying benefit with its immune tolerance platform in multiple animal models of disease. About Celiac Disease Celiac disease is a genetically driven, serious autoimmune disease where inappropriate immune responses to gluten peptides lead to damage of the small intestine.1 The prevalence of celiac disease in adults is approximately 0.40.95% in the United States and 12% in Europe.2 Celiac disease can cause severe symptoms including abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.3 Long-term complications of celiac disease may include weight loss, osteoporosis, neurological problems and reproductive issues.4 The only treatment available for patients is maintaining a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet and limiting exposure to gluten proteins from wheat, barley and rye, which is oftentimes ineffective.5 About Anokion Anokion SA is a Swiss biotechnology company that aims to make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients suffering from autoimmune diseases by restoring normal immune tolerance. The company is focused on both prevalent and rare autoimmune diseases, including celiac disease, multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes. Anokions distinct approach leverages the companys immune-based platform, which targets natural pathways in the liver to restore immune tolerance and address the underlying cause of autoimmune disease.

Upon completion of the second SAD cohort, the company initiated Part B, in which patients enrolled will each receive three doses of either KAN-101 or placebo across three MAD cohorts. Celiac disease is a serious autoimmune disorder that results in severe and life-altering symptoms in patients when not managed properly. With no approved treatments today, symptoms can only be managed through a burdensome, gluten-free diet, said Deborah Geraghty, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Anokion. We are excited to advance our Phase 1 trial to the MAD portion, which will provide important information on the potential effects of repeat dosing of KAN-101 in our target patient population. By restoring natural immune tolerance, we believe KAN-101 could significantly impact the treatment of patients with celiac disease, and we look forward to assessing initial data and advancing this program later this year. The primary endpoint of the ACeD trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of KAN-101 in patients, and the secondary endpoint is to assess serum concentrations and pharmacokinetics of KAN-101. Exploratory endpoints include assessing cytokines critical to both innate and adaptive immunity, T cell responses, as well as other serum cytokines and celiac disease symptoms in patients treated with KAN-101. Anokion anticipates reporting preliminary safety and pharmacokinetic data from the SAD cohorts of ACeD later this year. Additional information about the ACeD trial can be found at: www.ACeDtrial.com About KAN-101 KAN-101, an investigational medicine being developed for the treatment of celiac disease, is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial (ACeD study). KAN-101 encompasses a well-described gluten antigen implicated in driving the onset of celiac disease and is designed to re-educate the immune system by targeting the bodys own natural immune pathways in the liver. Anokion has generated preclinical data demonstrating potentially durable, disease-modifying benefit with its immune tolerance platform in multiple animal models of disease. About Celiac Disease Celiac disease is a genetically driven, serious autoimmune disease where inappropriate immune responses to gluten peptides lead to damage of the small intestine.1 The prevalence of celiac disease in adults is approximately 0.40.95% in the United States and 12% in Europe.2 Celiac disease can cause severe symptoms including abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting.3 Long-term complications of celiac disease may include weight loss, osteoporosis, neurological problems and reproductive issues.4 The only treatment available for patients is maintaining a strict, lifelong gluten-free diet and limiting exposure to gluten proteins from wheat, barley and rye, which is oftentimes ineffective.5 About Anokion Anokion SA is a Swiss biotechnology company that aims to make a meaningful difference in the lives of patients suffering from autoimmune diseases by restoring normal immune tolerance. The company is focused on both prevalent and rare autoimmune diseases, including celiac disease, multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes. Anokions distinct approach leverages the companys immune-based platform, which targets natural pathways in the liver to restore immune tolerance and address the underlying cause of autoimmune disease.

Article: SUZHOU, China, and ROCKVILLE, Md., June 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Ascentage Pharma (6855.HK), a globally focused, clinical-stage biotechnology company engaged in developing novel therapies for cancers, chronic hepatitis B (CHB), and age-related diseases, today announced that the Phase II clinical study of the company's novel inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAP) antagonist APG-1387 in combination with entecavir for the treatment of patients with CHB has dosed its first patient in China. This global multi-center, open-label Phase II study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of APG-1387 in combination with entecavir in patients with CHB who are treatment-naive or -experienced. The study is designed to enroll 104 patients with CHB globally. According to the 2017 Global Hepatitis Report by the World Health Organization[1], there were around 257 million patients with HBV (hepatitis B virus) infections globally, with approximately 650,000 deaths annually from HBV infection-induced hepatic failure, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Standard of care treatments for HBV infection recommended by major international guidelines include entecavir, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, tenofovir alafenamide, and long-acting interferon. However, the current available drugs can achieve clearance of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and sustained post-treatment immune response only in a small proportion of patients, while most patients require long-term or even life-long treatments. As a result, there remains a significant unmet medical need for therapies that can effectively treat CHB and minimize the risk of disease progression within a limited duration of treatment. APG-1387 is a novel and highly specific IAP antagonist being developed by Ascentage Pharma. APG-1387 degrades IAPs by mimicking the endogenous second mitochondria-derived activator of caspases (SMAC) molecule to induce programmed cell death or apoptosis. In the course of HBV infection, the virus and inflammatory factors can facilitate molecular expression of cellular inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (cIAPs) in hepatocytes, inhibit cellular immune-mediated apoptosis, and promote the survival of infected hepatocytes, leading to persistent infections[2]. In addition, APG-1387 has demonstrated its ability to suppress and clear HBV infections in various in vivo and in vitro models. APG-1387 is the first IAP antagonist entering clinical stage in China. "Current treatment options for HBV infection are effective in suppressing viral replication, but much less effective in achieving clinical cure (clearance of HBsAg), necessitating long-term, and possibly life-time use of antiviral therapies," said Jinlin Hou, M.D., former President of the Society of Infectious Diseases of Chinese Medical Association (CMA), Director of Nanfang Hospital Liver Cancer of Southern Medical University (Guangzhou, China). "APG-1387 has the potential of clearing HBV infection in patients, and its unique mechanism has suggested a promising new approach to the treatment of CHB. Based on the favorable activity and safety observed in an earlier clinical study of single-agent APG-1387, we are initiating this global Phase II study of APG-1387 in combination with entecavir to further evaluate the therapeutic potential of this combination therapy." "At present, CHB still presents considerable unmet medical needs. As the first IAP antagonist entering clinical stage in China, APG-1387's unique mechanisms in inducing apoptosis and host immune modulations has the potential in delivering a cure to patients with HBV infections," said Dr. Yifan Zhai, Chief Medical Officer of Ascentage Pharma. "We hope our investigation of this combinational therapy will bring new approach to patients with CHB worldwide who are in urgent need for more effective therapies."

In the course of HBV infection, the virus and inflammatory factors can facilitate molecular expression of cellular inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (cIAPs) in hepatocytes, inhibit cellular immune-mediated apoptosis, and promote the survival of infected hepatocytes, leading to persistent infections[2]. In addition, APG-1387 has demonstrated its ability to suppress and clear HBV infections in various in vivo and in vitro models. APG-1387 is the first IAP antagonist entering clinical stage in China. "Current treatment options for HBV infection are effective in suppressing viral replication, but much less effective in achieving clinical cure (clearance of HBsAg), necessitating long-term, and possibly life-time use of antiviral therapies," said Jinlin Hou, M.D., former President of the Society of Infectious Diseases of Chinese Medical Association (CMA), Director of Nanfang Hospital Liver Cancer of Southern Medical University (Guangzhou, China). "APG-1387 has the potential of clearing HBV infection in patients, and its unique mechanism has suggested a promising new approach to the treatment of CHB. Based on the favorable activity and safety observed in an earlier clinical study of single-agent APG-1387, we are initiating this global Phase II study of APG-1387 in combination with entecavir to further evaluate the therapeutic potential of this combination therapy." "At present, CHB still presents considerable unmet medical needs. As the first IAP antagonist entering clinical stage in China, APG-1387's unique mechanisms in inducing apoptosis and host immune modulations has the potential in delivering a cure to patients with HBV infections," said Dr. Yifan Zhai, Chief Medical Officer of Ascentage Pharma. "We hope our investigation of this combinational therapy will bring new approach to patients with CHB worldwide who are in urgent need for more effective therapies."

APG-1387 degrades IAPs by mimicking endogenous SMAC molecule to induce programmed cell death or apoptosis. Ascentage Pharma is developing APG-1387 globally, and has completed Phase I dose-escalation trials in patients with solid tumors in China and Australia, and a Phase Ib/II clinical trial of APG-1387 and pembrolizumab combination is currently ongoing in the US. In addition, APG-1387 is also being investigated in a Phase Ib trial for the treatment of patients with Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) in China. In February 2020, Ascentage Pharma was cleared to initiate a Phase Ib/II study of APG-1387 in combination with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer. In April 2020, the company received clearance for a Phase II study of APG-1387 in combination with entecavir for the treatment of CHB.

The US FDA granted Fast-Track designation to ONCOS-102 based on encouraging pre-clinical and clinical efficacy associated with broad immune activation observed to date. Receiving this designation is an endorsement by the US FDA of the strength of the ONCOS-102 data package. The FDA Fast Track-designation is awarded to therapies with potential to address unmet medical needs in serious medical conditions and allows for more frequent interactions with the FDA to expedite clinical development, as well as the regulatory review processes. Fast-Track products have improved likelihood of receiving Priority Review for a future Biologics License Application (BLA) and may be allowed to submit parts of the application early to shorten review time. The Fast-Track approval comes in addition to ONCOS-102's existing Orphan Drug Designation (ODD) with both the US FDA and European EMA in the mesothelioma indication, which provides ONCOS-102 market exclusivity for 7 and 10 years in the USA and EU, respectively, from the date of BLA grant.

Article: NEW YORK, Oct. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Val Kleyman, Esq., a New York City divorce lawyer with the Kleyman Law Firm, announced that artificial intelligence will not replace lawyers who practice divorce and family law. Continue Reading Val Kleyman, Esq. "This is because the legal system is set up so that a lawyer who practices family and divorce law must informally practice far more than just law: the nature of the controversies involved, and the emotional states of the parties, require that a lawyer be also a therapist, a teacher, a diary, a parent, and a friend all while applying the law and keeping an appropriate, professional distance. It is a complicated and emotionally draining balancing act that no computer could ever replicate," Kleyman said. First, this area of law relies more heavily on the discretion of judges than other areas of law, due to the nature of the issues presented to the court. For example, any decisions involving children, such as custody or parenting time, require an analysis of the situation, the child, and the parties to determine what is in "the best interests of the child" an incredibly subjective standard that incorporates all the factors you would expect, and more. Second, there are too many emotions involved. The parties to a divorce can be angry, depressed, mistrustful, vengeful, or worse. Even when extreme emotions are not involved, parties seeking divorce have just made the extremely difficult and painful decision to end a relationship that was likely emotionally damaging to both of them. Some people in emotional distress are less likely to tell the truth; others are more likely to spill every detail of their lives. Some people in such states are more likely to try to manipulate situations; others are so defeated they willingly submit to unfavorable agreements. "Divorce lawyers must be able to read people well enough to sense the truth behind what is being said, and to get to the heart of what the party truly wants and needs. This involves far more than asking the right questions in the right order and is also not something a computer can solve by analyzing data," according to the New York divorce attorney Kleyman, who engages in practice of high conflict divorce.However, Kleyman agreed that practicing divorce law is emotionally and intellectually taxing and that assistance in any form can help attorneys to remain healthy, and to streamline the practice of law so that focus can be directed where it is most needed. "Though a computer may not be able to understand a person's emotional state or weigh the complicated inner workings of unique families against the function and application of the law, a computer can: speed up the preparation and submission of documents; perform legal research; analyze financial documents; perform calculations to determine the value of assets; and many other important functions," said Kleyman.About:Val Kleymanis the founder of The Kleyman Law Firm, a matrimonial law firm inNew Yorkand is rated as one of the top divorce lawyers in New York City.

Article: NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Class Action Settlements, a company that helps businesses search, claim and receive money from class action settlements, today announced the launch of its new website, ClassAction-Settlements.com. Designed to simplify a previously arduous process, ClassAction-Settlements.com helps business owners receive payment from class action settlements through a single, centralized website with no upfront costs. Stats have shown that the current class action claims filing rate is roughly 10-30%, a range that Class Action Settlements is dedicated to help increase to 80% or higher. To date, the professionals at Class Action Settlements have worked with over 100,000 small- to medium-sized businesses, helping them receive money they are due from class action settlements. The team understands that the traditional process can be time-consuming and cumbersome for business owners, resulting in large sums of money going unclaimed each year. As many businesses struggle to cope with the financial impact of the COVID-19 restrictions and shutdowns, they are looking for hidden assets. By submitting a claim for a class action settlement, business owners can receive additional money that is due to them.

Article: DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Lubricant Anti-wear Agents Market by Type (ZDDP, Phosphate, Phosphite, Phosphonate), Application (Engine Oil, Automotive Gear Oil, Automotive Transmission Fluid, Hydraulic Oil, Metalworking Fluid, Grease) and Region - Forecast to 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The global lubricant anti-wear agents market size is projected to grow from USD 698 million in 2020 to USD 784 million by 2025, at a CAGR of 2.4% from 2020 to 2025. The growing demand for high-passenger and commercial vehicles in the automotive industry is driving the lubricant anti-wear agents industry growth as well as the rising GDP in the Asia-Pacific. The increasing inclination toward electric vehicles and environmental concerns is restraining the growth of the market. The zinc dialkldithiophosphate (ZDDP) lubricant anti-wear agents segment, by type, is projected to have the largest market share Zinc dialkldithiophosphate (ZDDP) is a family of uncharged compounds composed of phosphorus, zinc, and sulfur traces, primarily used as anti-wear additives in lubricants such as gear oil, grease, and motor oil. Zinc dialkldithiophosphate has high thermal and hydrolytic stability and forms protective chemical films on metal surfaces which prevents corrosive damage to valve train and bearings. ZDDPs are multifunctional because they provide wear, oxidation, and corrosion protection. Their antioxidant properties prevent soot deposits and formation of sludge on engine components. This additive provides oxidation, copper-lead bearing corrosion, and wear control majorly in diesel and gasoline engines. It is particularly effective under severe temperature and load.

VAIO built the world's first* contoured carbon fiber laptop. Japan's VAIO, a leader in innovative technology, unleashes the first 3-D molded, carbon fiber laptop in the world. The new VAIO Z has a lighter, yet durable design and is engineered to make mobile computing effortless.
GARDENA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VAIO is the first company in the world to successfully mass produce a 3-D molded, carbon fiber laptop using Uni-direction carbon fiber which is a type of carbon fiber material that is non-woven and all fibers running in a single direction. Using technology only previously available to the car racing industry, molded carbon fiber makes the new VAIO Z lighter at just under 2.3 lbs. Moreover, with all around carbon fiber protection, the VAIO Z offers exceptional toughness, and its turbo charged with unprecedented speed. In fact, the new VAIO Z features VAIO TruePerformance, that offers the powerful processing speed previously only found in the desktop PCs of the most demanding fields. Although previously gaining popularity, mobile computing has never been more essential. With more professionals and students having to work and collaborate remotely these days, their mobile computing needs have increased. Of course, there are inherent risks with mobility as seen with mobile phone usage, for example. Everyone is well acquainted with the challenge of keeping mobile devices from getting damaged and now, more so with laptops. Both have become indispensable investments that make work, learning and connecting socially possible. So, when they are damaged, it can disrupt users needs. The new VAIO Z was designed for todays mobile computing needs. The VAIO Zs lighter yet more durable design makes mobility less cumbersome, more practical, and safer for work and learning needs. No more having to carry a heavy laptop from place to place or even room to room. No more worrying that this valued work partner and learning tool will get damaged, and no more worrying about securing your privacy. The VAIO Z offers incredible power through 11th Gen Intel Core processors and new Intel integrated graphics on its 14-inch, high-def 4k LCD panel. Additional features include crystal clear sound with Dolby Audio speakers. No more struggling to hear teammates or teachers on video conferencing calls. There are also camera shutter and mic mute shortcuts for privacy, 180-degree open/close screen for easy collaboration and increased battery life to keep you connected for hours. Plus, the VAIO Z will get to know you. Its VAIO User Sensing engineering combines human sensing technology and biometrics to make the VAIO Z a truly personal experience. The VAIO Z uses face authentication to log you in when you are seated before it, and it keeps you logged in while you are seated in front of it. No more having to remember your password or worrying someone will use it. When you are away, it locks automatically to secure your privacy. Kaoru Hayashi, Director, Vice President and Head of PC Business at VAIO Corporation, proudly states, It is with great pleasure that we introduce VAIO Z to the world. With over a decade of relentless carbon fiber research, VAIO has succeeded in creating and mass producing the world's first 3-D molded full carbon chassis for laptop PCs. VAIO has developed a unique process of working with carbon fiber to achieve beautifully contoured lines and the flexible molding of carbon fiber, that was previously difficult to mass produce. The achievement of harnessing carbon fiber's full potential of lightness and durability is both revolutionary and evolutionary as we continue looking ahead. With this evolution, the new VAIO Z offers exceptional performance, lightness, endurance, now with true ruggedness, and without compromise, all converging into one elegant design. With VAIO Z as our flagship model, we hope it is the start of VAIOs future array of laptop PC developments. We also want to use this proud moment to share VAIOs redefined mission. Like VAIO Z, we have reshaped our mission statement to show our commitment to our technical ingenuity that is deeply engrained in our DNA. Therefore, our renewed mission statement is Illuminate your spirit with VAIO. Accelerating innovation through design and technology.' Our vision is to make VAIO PCs a valued partner to customers who, like VAIO, are the worlds innovators, creators, and relentless leaders in their fields.

Article: CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Rgenta Therapeutics, a new biotechnology company focusing on developing RNA-targeting medicines for historically undruggable disease-relevant targets, announced today that it closed a $20 Million seed investment, co-led by Boehringer Ingelheim Venture Fund and Matrix Partners China. Rounding out the series seed syndicate are two additional investors, Kaitai Capital and Legend Star Fund. The company has assembled a world-class team of small-molecule drug developers and an exceptional Scientific Advisory Board in the fields of genomics and RNA biology. "We are delighted to have an outstanding syndicate of investors in this seed round," said Dr. Simon Xi, co-founder and CEO of Rgenta. "With their support, we will be able to rapidly advance our lead RNA-targeting programs into preclinical studies and expand our portfolio to pursue high-value RNA targets in a range of therapeutic areas." "Rgenta's RNA-targeting platform delivers an innovative approach that gives us access to historically undruggable, highly disease-relevant targets," said Dr. Travis Wager, co-founder and CSO of Rgenta. "The key to our platform's success is that we can analyze massive amounts of genomics data and identify regulatory sites in RNAs amenable for potent and selective modulation by small molecules.Our unique discovery engine can rapidly screen for drug-like small molecules to target RNAs and thereby regulate protein production or alter protein function." Rgenta builds on the groundbreaking work of its scientific co-founder, Dr. Zhiping Weng, an endowed professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in Worcester, Mass., who has decades of experience studying gene regulation and RNA biology and co-leads the data analysis centers of the ENCODE and psychENCODE consortia. The Rgenta scientific advisory board includes: Dr. Phillip Zamore, Chair of RNA Therapeutics Institute and Gretchen Stone Cook Professor of Biomedical Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Medical School and a co-founder of two biotechnology companies, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals and Voyager Therapeutics; Dr. Charles DeLisi, Metcalf Professor of Science and Engineering at Boston University, a transformative visionary, widely recognized as the father of the human genome project; and Dr. Friedrich Metzger, CEO of Versameb AG and previously Head of Roche Discovery Rare Diseases, and a leader of the discovery of Risdiplam, a small molecule RNA splicing modifier for treatment of spinal muscular atrophy. Rgenta's initial focus is on developing small molecules targeting the RNA regulation and splicing of disease-causing genes in oncology and neurological disorders that are 'undruggable' by traditional approaches. These target genes reside in the crux of regulatory programs and signaling pathways essential to disease development and represent ideal targets for pharmaceutical intervention. Martin Heidecker, Head of the Boehringer Ingelheim Venture fund USA and chairman of the board of directors of Rgenta, commented, "We are very excited about Rgenta's novel and integrative platform for RNA-targeting. With the unique expertise and experiences of the Rgenta team in genomics, computation, disease biology, screening, and medicinal chemistry, we are confident that Rgenta will unlock the therapeutic potentials for a new class of targets and develop innovative therapies for patients." About Rgenta TherapeuticsRgenta Therapeutics is developing a pipeline of oral, small-molecule RNA-targeting medicines with an initial focus on oncology and neurological disorders.

This Thanksgiving, the trucking industry will safely deliver 46 million turkeys (an estimated 1.4 billion pounds) along with all of the sides 214 million pounds of potatoes, 50 million pounds of sweet potatoes, 19 million pumpkin pies, and 80 million pounds of cranberries, to ensure Thanksgiving dinner is complete. "It is important to put safety first while driving on the highways to ensure everyone can make it to the dinner table," said ATA Share the Road professional truck driver Gary Martin of FedEx Ground.

While AAA projects less than 50 million Americans will travel this Thanksgiving holiday, 10% less than previous years, a majority of those will be hitting the highways and sharing the road with professional truck drivers.

Winter driving presents unique problems for motorists, including high wind and blowing snow, which contributes to reduced visibility in many regions throughout North America. Similarly, freezing temperatures can have a profound impact on vehicles and the roadways. A thorough pre-trip inspection and understanding of driving conditions can play a significant role in driving success this holiday season." ATA's Share the Road is committed to spreading the message of safety. Share the Road professional drivers recommend planning and coordinating travel plans ahead of time, as well as following the below safety tips. This safe driving guidance applies to all motorists, and is crucial when operating small passenger vehicles near large tractor-trailers: Buckle Up: A seat belt will not prevent a collision, but it will save a life. Remove ice and snow from your vehicle: Clear your windows and roof of snow to ensure you have maximum visibility and avoid creating a hazard for the vehicle behind you. Don't allow ice and snow to create additional blind spots on your vehicle. Slow Down: Chances of a crash nearly triples when driving faster than surrounding traffic. Do not drive impaired: Driving is a great responsibility, and your fellow travelers are relying on safe, attentive drivers to respectfully share the road and make good decisions. Be aware of truck blind spots: Trucks deliver your favorite Thanksgiving traditions turkeys, cranberries, mashed potatoes and all kinds of tasty pies so make it easy on them by staying out of blind spots. Pass on the left where the truck's blind spot is much smaller. Keep your eyes on the road: Distracted driving is a major cause of traffic accidents and one of the leading causes of death amongst teenagers. Even just two seconds of distraction time doubles the chances of an accident. Use your cell phone when stopped and never text while driving. Do not cut in front of large trucks: Remember trucks are heavier and take longer to make a complete stop, so avoid cutting quickly in front of them. Fully loaded tractor-trailers can take the length of a football field plus both end zones to make a complete stop. Ask your favorite quarterback how far that is. Hint: it's far. Prepare your vehicle for long distance travel: Before you head out to your aunts, uncles and cousins, check your wipers and fluids and have your radiator and cooling system serviced. Simple maintenance before you leave your home can prevent many of the problems that strand motorists on the side of the road. Prepare yourself for long distance travel: The vehicle needs maintenance, and the driver needs plenty of rest and hydration to function at his or her best. If the turkey is making you feel drowsy, pull over and wait until you are more alert. Leave early and avoid risks: Leave early to reduce anxiety about arriving late. Road conditions may change due to inclement weather or traffic congestion. Be aware of the vehicle in front of you: Leave extra room between you and the vehicle ahead. A reminder to those who are considering travel that staying home and avoiding large-group gatherings is the best way to prevent COVID-19 from spreading. In addition, ATA and Share the Road encourage Americans to make smart decisions regarding travel during the COVID-19 pandemic. With experts discouraging travel this year, keeping off the roads to allow essential workers like truck drivers and medical personnel can help everyone be safe this holiday season. **Professional drivers are available for media interviews through the ATA Office of Public Affairs** Share the Roadis a highway safety outreach program of the American Trucking Associations that educates all drivers about sharing the roads safely with large trucks.

Article: GREEN BAY, Wis., April20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: NCBS) ("Nicolet") announced first quarter 2021 net income of $18.2 million and earnings per diluted common share of $1.75, compared to $18.0 million and $1.74 for fourth quarter 2020, and $10.6 million and $0.98 for first quarter 2020, respectively. Annualized quarterly return on average assets was 1.64%, 1.58% and 1.19%, for first quarter 2021, fourth quarter 2020 and first quarter 2020, respectively. "We are very pleased with the exceptional start to 2021," said Mike Daniels, President and CEO of Nicolet National Bank. "The main themes from late 2020 continue to drive our earnings - strong mortgage income, improved asset quality, Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan activity, and expense control - producing $18 million of net income for the third consecutive quarter." "Our commercial customer base as a whole has proven to be resilient, entrepreneurial, and focused on being great operators of their businesses. Our bankers have worked hard to build solid relationships, not just for a transaction, but to become a true asset to our customers and to be a partner in finding solutions," Daniels said. "This combination of great customers and great bankers has led to pristine asset quality metrics, allowing us to lower our loan loss provision to $0.5 million this quarter." "In the mortgage and wealth business, our bankers and advisors continue to build on their outstanding reputation because of their willingness to lead proactive, real conversations, especially as the pandemic continues to affect our communities," Daniels said. "Word-of-mouth referrals determine success in these businesses. We continue to grow because of the trust we earn every day, with every customer." Secondary mortgage income was $7.2 million for first quarter (compared to $7.8 million and $2.3 million for fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively), and wealth revenues were $4.6 million (3% and 17% more than fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively). "All areas of the bank are performing well because we remain focused on executing a simple yet important purpose: serve our customers, communities, and each other," said Bob Atwell, Chairman and CEO of Nicolet. "The results of this execution are what shows in the first quarter numbers." The timing of Nicolet's acquisition of Advantage Community Bancshares, Inc. ("Advantage") on August 21, 2020, at 4% of then pre-merger assets, impacts financial comparisons. At consummation, Advantage added $172 million in assets, $88 million in loans, $1 million in core deposit intangible, $12 million in goodwill, $141 million in deposits and four branches. Balance Sheet ReviewAtMarch 31, 2021, period end assets were$4.5 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2020, with a slight shift in composition. The shift in assets included a $57million increase in loans (including $43million from net activity in PPP loans, and $14 million increase in all other loans, mainly commercial) and a $19million increase in investment securities, offset by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents (down $67million to $736million). Total deposits of$3.9 billion at March 31, 2021, were also minimally changed from December 31, 2020, with a decrease of $64 million in brokered deposits (as brokered deposits mature without renewal given our liquid position) substantially offset by a $54 million increase in customer core deposits (aided in part by additional stimulus checks and new PPP funds on deposit). Total capital was $550 million at March 31, 2021, an increase of $11million since December 31, 2020, mostly due to solid earnings, partly offset by share repurchase activity and unfavorable net fair value investment changes. Nicolet repurchased 56,886 shares at a total cost of $4.1million, or an average per share cost of $72.10 during first quarter 2021. During 2020, we originated 2,725 PPP loans totaling $351 million, bearing a 1% contractual rate, and earned a $12.3 million fee. During first quarter 2021, under the latest round of the SBA's program, Nicolet originated 1,928 PPP loans totaling $145 million and earned a $7.2 million fee. Of the total fees, $5.7 million was accreted into interest in 2020 and $3.4 million was accreted in first quarter 2021. At March 31, 2021, the net carrying value of all PPP loans was $229 million, or 8% of total loans, for a net $43 million increase over year-end 2020. SBA loan forgiveness that started in November 2020 has boosted overall borrower equity in their businesses, meaningfully improving the credit quality of many commercial relationships. Asset QualityNonperforming assets were $13 million at March 31, consisting of $9 million of nonaccrual loans and $4 million of other real estate owned (primarily closed bank branch properties yet to be sold), and representing 0.28% of total assets, unchanged from $13 million or 0.29% at December31 and down from $16 million or 0.42% at March 31, 2020. Since the prior quarter, the allowance for credit losses-loans increased to $33 million, due to the $0.5 million provision for credit losses recognized and negligible net charge-offs (0.01% of average loans, annualized). At March 31, 2021, the allowance represented 1.15% of total loans, and represented 1.25% of total loans excluding the net carrying value of PPP loans. Income Statement ReviewNet income for first quarter 2021 was $18.2 million, consistent with net income of $18.0 million for fourth quarter 2020 and 73% stronger than net income of $10.6 million for first quarter 2020. Net interest income was $33.6 million for first quarter 2021, $0.4 million (1%) lower than $34.0 million for fourth quarter 2020, comprised of $1.2 million lower interest income offset by $0.8 million lower interest expense. Higher net interest income from positive rate changes (up $0.6 million) between the sequential quarters was more than offset by lower net interest income from two fewer days (down $0.6 million) and unfavorable volumes (down $0.4 million). Average interest-earning assets of $4.1 billion were minimally changed from fourth quarter 2020, with lower average loans (down $43 million, mostly from forgiveness on PPP loans outpacing new PPP and other loan growth), offset by growth in investments (up $7 million) and other interest-earning assets (up $34 million, mostly cash). Average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.8 billion increased $20 million (1%) over fourth quarter 2020, comprised of higher core interest-bearing deposits (up $110 million), and lower brokered deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities (down $90 million combined). The mix of average interest-earning assets continues to impact the margin trend most, at 69% loans (comprised of 5% PPP loans earning 7.65% and 64% all other loans earning 4.57%), 13% investments and 18% other interest-earning assets (mostly low-earning cash), compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 70% loans (7% in PPP loans earning 5.26% and 63% all other loans earning 4.71%), 13% investments and 17% other interest-earning assets. The mix of interest-bearing liabilities for first quarter was 98% deposits costing 44bps and 2% all other borrowings costing 2.42%, compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 95% deposits costing 53bps and 5% all other borrowings costing 1.63% (of which over half was very low-cost funding directly related to PPP). The net interest margin for first quarter 2021 was 3.31%, up 2bps from 3.29% for fourth quarter 2020, as the yield on interest-earning assets declined 5bps (to 3.63%), the cost of funds favorably declined 11bps (to 0.47%), and the contribution from net free funds fell 4bps. Loans yielded 4.80% for first quarter 2021, up 4bps from fourth quarter 2020, with total PPP loans yielding 7.65% (up 239bps over fourth quarter, aided mostly by accelerating fee accretion in line with loan forgiveness), while all other loans earned 4.57% (down 14bps from the prior quarter, pressured by new or renewed loans in the lower rate environment). Investments yielded 1.96%, 19bps lower than fourth quarter 2020, as new funds are invested in the lower rate environment. The cost of funds of 0.47% for first quarter 2021 declined 11bps on a sequential quarter basis, attributable mainly to the timing of prudent pricing actions on core interest-bearing deposits (down 8bps to 0.31% for first quarter 2021). Noninterest income was $17.1 million for first quarter 2021, up $0.2 million (1%) compared to fourth quarter 2020. Excluding net asset gains (losses), noninterest income was $16.4 million, down $1.1 million (6%) from fourth quarter 2020. Net mortgage income of $7.2 million remains strong, though down from the record levels experienced in 2020, on lower sale gains and capitalized gains combined (down $0.4 million or 5%) and net unfavorable fair value marks (down $0.2 million). Trust services fee income and brokerage fee income combined increased $0.1 million (3%) over fourth quarter 2020. Net asset gains were $0.7 million (comprised primarily of market gains on equity securities), compared to net asset losses of $0.6 million in fourth quarter 2020 (mostly from $1.0 million of net losses on branch other real estate owned write-downs, partly offset by $0.4 million of market gains on equity securities). All remaining noninterest income categories combined decreased $0.6 million from fourth quarter 2020 largely due to $0.4 million lower BOLI income. Noninterest expense of $26.1 million increased $0.7 million (3%) from fourth quarter 2020. Personnel expense decreased slightly ($0.1 million or 1%) from fourth quarter 2020, with a 3% overall increase in base salaries for the new year more than offset by lower non-salary personnel costs combined given timing and pace changes in the new year. All non-personnel expenses combined increased $0.8 million (8%) over fourth quarter 2020, largely due to $0.5 million higher professional costs related to the recently announced acquisition and $0.2 million higher FDIC expense from the larger assessment base. On April 12, 2021, we entered into a definitive merger agreement with Mackinac Financial Corporation ("Mackinac" (NASDAQ: MFNC)) pursuant to which Mackinac will merge with and into Nicolet, expanding Nicolet prominently into Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Mackinac shareholders will receive fixed consideration of 0.22 shares of Nicolet and $4.64 in cash for each share owned (approximating a 20% cash and 80% stock split), subject to provisions provided for in the merger agreement. At December 31, 2020, Mackinac had total assets of $1.5 billion, loans of $1.1 billion, deposits of $1.3 billion and equity of $168 million. The merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by regulators and shareholders of both Mackinac and Nicolet. "We are committed to realizing the promise of the acquisition of Mackinac Financial Corporation, which is to come together as a strong, people-driven, local community bank," said Daniels. "Our team is assembled and using their experience to help create a seamless integration. We understand that, at this point, we will be judged by our actions, not our words. It's time to deliver, and I am confident that our team will do exactly that," concluded Daniels. About Nicolet Bankshares, Inc.

Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2021 Earnings.
GREEN BAY, Wis., April20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: NCBS) ("Nicolet") announced first quarter 2021 net income of $18.2 million and earnings per diluted common share of $1.75, compared to $18.0 million and $1.74 for fourth quarter 2020, and $10.6 million and $0.98 for first quarter 2020, respectively. Annualized quarterly return on average assets was 1.64%, 1.58% and 1.19%, for first quarter 2021, fourth quarter 2020 and first quarter 2020, respectively. "We are very pleased with the exceptional start to 2021," said Mike Daniels, President and CEO of Nicolet National Bank. "The main themes from late 2020 continue to drive our earnings - strong mortgage income, improved asset quality, Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan activity, and expense control - producing $18 million of net income for the third consecutive quarter." "Our commercial customer base as a whole has proven to be resilient, entrepreneurial, and focused on being great operators of their businesses. Our bankers have worked hard to build solid relationships, not just for a transaction, but to become a true asset to our customers and to be a partner in finding solutions," Daniels said. "This combination of great customers and great bankers has led to pristine asset quality metrics, allowing us to lower our loan loss provision to $0.5 million this quarter." "In the mortgage and wealth business, our bankers and advisors continue to build on their outstanding reputation because of their willingness to lead proactive, real conversations, especially as the pandemic continues to affect our communities," Daniels said. "Word-of-mouth referrals determine success in these businesses. We continue to grow because of the trust we earn every day, with every customer." Secondary mortgage income was $7.2 million for first quarter (compared to $7.8 million and $2.3 million for fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively), and wealth revenues were $4.6 million (3% and 17% more than fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively). "All areas of the bank are performing well because we remain focused on executing a simple yet important purpose: serve our customers, communities, and each other," said Bob Atwell, Chairman and CEO of Nicolet. "The results of this execution are what shows in the first quarter numbers." The timing of Nicolet's acquisition of Advantage Community Bancshares, Inc. ("Advantage") on August 21, 2020, at 4% of then pre-merger assets, impacts financial comparisons. At consummation, Advantage added $172 million in assets, $88 million in loans, $1 million in core deposit intangible, $12 million in goodwill, $141 million in deposits and four branches. Balance Sheet ReviewAtMarch 31, 2021, period end assets were$4.5 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2020, with a slight shift in composition. The shift in assets included a $57million increase in loans (including $43million from net activity in PPP loans, and $14 million increase in all other loans, mainly commercial) and a $19million increase in investment securities, offset by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents (down $67million to $736million). Total deposits of$3.9 billion at March 31, 2021, were also minimally changed from December 31, 2020, with a decrease of $64 million in brokered deposits (as brokered deposits mature without renewal given our liquid position) substantially offset by a $54 million increase in customer core deposits (aided in part by additional stimulus checks and new PPP funds on deposit). Total capital was $550 million at March 31, 2021, an increase of $11million since December 31, 2020, mostly due to solid earnings, partly offset by share repurchase activity and unfavorable net fair value investment changes. Nicolet repurchased 56,886 shares at a total cost of $4.1million, or an average per share cost of $72.10 during first quarter 2021. During 2020, we originated 2,725 PPP loans totaling $351 million, bearing a 1% contractual rate, and earned a $12.3 million fee. During first quarter 2021, under the latest round of the SBA's program, Nicolet originated 1,928 PPP loans totaling $145 million and earned a $7.2 million fee. Of the total fees, $5.7 million was accreted into interest in 2020 and $3.4 million was accreted in first quarter 2021. At March 31, 2021, the net carrying value of all PPP loans was $229 million, or 8% of total loans, for a net $43 million increase over year-end 2020. SBA loan forgiveness that started in November 2020 has boosted overall borrower equity in their businesses, meaningfully improving the credit quality of many commercial relationships. Asset QualityNonperforming assets were $13 million at March 31, consisting of $9 million of nonaccrual loans and $4 million of other real estate owned (primarily closed bank branch properties yet to be sold), and representing 0.28% of total assets, unchanged from $13 million or 0.29% at December31 and down from $16 million or 0.42% at March 31, 2020. Since the prior quarter, the allowance for credit losses-loans increased to $33 million, due to the $0.5 million provision for credit losses recognized and negligible net charge-offs (0.01% of average loans, annualized). At March 31, 2021, the allowance represented 1.15% of total loans, and represented 1.25% of total loans excluding the net carrying value of PPP loans. Income Statement ReviewNet income for first quarter 2021 was $18.2 million, consistent with net income of $18.0 million for fourth quarter 2020 and 73% stronger than net income of $10.6 million for first quarter 2020. Net interest income was $33.6 million for first quarter 2021, $0.4 million (1%) lower than $34.0 million for fourth quarter 2020, comprised of $1.2 million lower interest income offset by $0.8 million lower interest expense. Higher net interest income from positive rate changes (up $0.6 million) between the sequential quarters was more than offset by lower net interest income from two fewer days (down $0.6 million) and unfavorable volumes (down $0.4 million). Average interest-earning assets of $4.1 billion were minimally changed from fourth quarter 2020, with lower average loans (down $43 million, mostly from forgiveness on PPP loans outpacing new PPP and other loan growth), offset by growth in investments (up $7 million) and other interest-earning assets (up $34 million, mostly cash). Average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.8 billion increased $20 million (1%) over fourth quarter 2020, comprised of higher core interest-bearing deposits (up $110 million), and lower brokered deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities (down $90 million combined). The mix of average interest-earning assets continues to impact the margin trend most, at 69% loans (comprised of 5% PPP loans earning 7.65% and 64% all other loans earning 4.57%), 13% investments and 18% other interest-earning assets (mostly low-earning cash), compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 70% loans (7% in PPP loans earning 5.26% and 63% all other loans earning 4.71%), 13% investments and 17% other interest-earning assets. The mix of interest-bearing liabilities for first quarter was 98% deposits costing 44bps and 2% all other borrowings costing 2.42%, compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 95% deposits costing 53bps and 5% all other borrowings costing 1.63% (of which over half was very low-cost funding directly related to PPP). The net interest margin for first quarter 2021 was 3.31%, up 2bps from 3.29% for fourth quarter 2020, as the yield on interest-earning assets declined 5bps (to 3.63%), the cost of funds favorably declined 11bps (to 0.47%), and the contribution from net free funds fell 4bps. Loans yielded 4.80% for first quarter 2021, up 4bps from fourth quarter 2020, with total PPP loans yielding 7.65% (up 239bps over fourth quarter, aided mostly by accelerating fee accretion in line with loan forgiveness), while all other loans earned 4.57% (down 14bps from the prior quarter, pressured by new or renewed loans in the lower rate environment). Investments yielded 1.96%, 19bps lower than fourth quarter 2020, as new funds are invested in the lower rate environment. The cost of funds of 0.47% for first quarter 2021 declined 11bps on a sequential quarter basis, attributable mainly to the timing of prudent pricing actions on core interest-bearing deposits (down 8bps to 0.31% for first quarter 2021). Noninterest income was $17.1 million for first quarter 2021, up $0.2 million (1%) compared to fourth quarter 2020. Excluding net asset gains (losses), noninterest income was $16.4 million, down $1.1 million (6%) from fourth quarter 2020. Net mortgage income of $7.2 million remains strong, though down from the record levels experienced in 2020, on lower sale gains and capitalized gains combined (down $0.4 million or 5%) and net unfavorable fair value marks (down $0.2 million). Trust services fee income and brokerage fee income combined increased $0.1 million (3%) over fourth quarter 2020. Net asset gains were $0.7 million (comprised primarily of market gains on equity securities), compared to net asset losses of $0.6 million in fourth quarter 2020 (mostly from $1.0 million of net losses on branch other real estate owned write-downs, partly offset by $0.4 million of market gains on equity securities). All remaining noninterest income categories combined decreased $0.6 million from fourth quarter 2020 largely due to $0.4 million lower BOLI income. Noninterest expense of $26.1 million increased $0.7 million (3%) from fourth quarter 2020. Personnel expense decreased slightly ($0.1 million or 1%) from fourth quarter 2020, with a 3% overall increase in base salaries for the new year more than offset by lower non-salary personnel costs combined given timing and pace changes in the new year. All non-personnel expenses combined increased $0.8 million (8%) over fourth quarter 2020, largely due to $0.5 million higher professional costs related to the recently announced acquisition and $0.2 million higher FDIC expense from the larger assessment base. On April 12, 2021, we entered into a definitive merger agreement with Mackinac Financial Corporation ("Mackinac" (NASDAQ: MFNC)) pursuant to which Mackinac will merge with and into Nicolet, expanding Nicolet prominently into Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Mackinac shareholders will receive fixed consideration of 0.22 shares of Nicolet and $4.64 in cash for each share owned (approximating a 20% cash and 80% stock split), subject to provisions provided for in the merger agreement. At December 31, 2020, Mackinac had total assets of $1.5 billion, loans of $1.1 billion, deposits of $1.3 billion and equity of $168 million. The merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by regulators and shareholders of both Mackinac and Nicolet. "We are committed to realizing the promise of the acquisition of Mackinac Financial Corporation, which is to come together as a strong, people-driven, local community bank," said Daniels. "Our team is assembled and using their experience to help create a seamless integration. We understand that, at this point, we will be judged by our actions, not our words. It's time to deliver, and I am confident that our team will do exactly that," concluded Daniels. About Nicolet Bankshares, Inc.

Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2021 Earnings
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a seasoned marketing PR professional brainstorming a captivating headline for a press release at BUSINESS WIRE and PRNewswire<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> Write a headline with strong SEO potential. Article: GREEN BAY, Wis., April20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Nicolet Bankshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: NCBS) ("Nicolet") announced first quarter 2021 net income of $18.2 million and earnings per diluted common share of $1.75, compared to $18.0 million and $1.74 for fourth quarter 2020, and $10.6 million and $0.98 for first quarter 2020, respectively. Annualized quarterly return on average assets was 1.64%, 1.58% and 1.19%, for first quarter 2021, fourth quarter 2020 and first quarter 2020, respectively. "We are very pleased with the exceptional start to 2021," said Mike Daniels, President and CEO of Nicolet National Bank. "The main themes from late 2020 continue to drive our earnings - strong mortgage income, improved asset quality, Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan activity, and expense control - producing $18 million of net income for the third consecutive quarter." "Our commercial customer base as a whole has proven to be resilient, entrepreneurial, and focused on being great operators of their businesses. Our bankers have worked hard to build solid relationships, not just for a transaction, but to become a true asset to our customers and to be a partner in finding solutions," Daniels said. "This combination of great customers and great bankers has led to pristine asset quality metrics, allowing us to lower our loan loss provision to $0.5 million this quarter." "In the mortgage and wealth business, our bankers and advisors continue to build on their outstanding reputation because of their willingness to lead proactive, real conversations, especially as the pandemic continues to affect our communities," Daniels said. "Word-of-mouth referrals determine success in these businesses. We continue to grow because of the trust we earn every day, with every customer." Secondary mortgage income was $7.2 million for first quarter (compared to $7.8 million and $2.3 million for fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively), and wealth revenues were $4.6 million (3% and 17% more than fourth and first quarters of 2020, respectively). "All areas of the bank are performing well because we remain focused on executing a simple yet important purpose: serve our customers, communities, and each other," said Bob Atwell, Chairman and CEO of Nicolet. "The results of this execution are what shows in the first quarter numbers." The timing of Nicolet's acquisition of Advantage Community Bancshares, Inc. ("Advantage") on August 21, 2020, at 4% of then pre-merger assets, impacts financial comparisons. At consummation, Advantage added $172 million in assets, $88 million in loans, $1 million in core deposit intangible, $12 million in goodwill, $141 million in deposits and four branches. Balance Sheet ReviewAtMarch 31, 2021, period end assets were$4.5 billion, unchanged from December 31, 2020, with a slight shift in composition. The shift in assets included a $57million increase in loans (including $43million from net activity in PPP loans, and $14 million increase in all other loans, mainly commercial) and a $19million increase in investment securities, offset by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents (down $67million to $736million). Total deposits of$3.9 billion at March 31, 2021, were also minimally changed from December 31, 2020, with a decrease of $64 million in brokered deposits (as brokered deposits mature without renewal given our liquid position) substantially offset by a $54 million increase in customer core deposits (aided in part by additional stimulus checks and new PPP funds on deposit). Total capital was $550 million at March 31, 2021, an increase of $11million since December 31, 2020, mostly due to solid earnings, partly offset by share repurchase activity and unfavorable net fair value investment changes. Nicolet repurchased 56,886 shares at a total cost of $4.1million, or an average per share cost of $72.10 during first quarter 2021. During 2020, we originated 2,725 PPP loans totaling $351 million, bearing a 1% contractual rate, and earned a $12.3 million fee. During first quarter 2021, under the latest round of the SBA's program, Nicolet originated 1,928 PPP loans totaling $145 million and earned a $7.2 million fee. Of the total fees, $5.7 million was accreted into interest in 2020 and $3.4 million was accreted in first quarter 2021. At March 31, 2021, the net carrying value of all PPP loans was $229 million, or 8% of total loans, for a net $43 million increase over year-end 2020. SBA loan forgiveness that started in November 2020 has boosted overall borrower equity in their businesses, meaningfully improving the credit quality of many commercial relationships. Asset QualityNonperforming assets were $13 million at March 31, consisting of $9 million of nonaccrual loans and $4 million of other real estate owned (primarily closed bank branch properties yet to be sold), and representing 0.28% of total assets, unchanged from $13 million or 0.29% at December31 and down from $16 million or 0.42% at March 31, 2020. Since the prior quarter, the allowance for credit losses-loans increased to $33 million, due to the $0.5 million provision for credit losses recognized and negligible net charge-offs (0.01% of average loans, annualized). At March 31, 2021, the allowance represented 1.15% of total loans, and represented 1.25% of total loans excluding the net carrying value of PPP loans. Income Statement ReviewNet income for first quarter 2021 was $18.2 million, consistent with net income of $18.0 million for fourth quarter 2020 and 73% stronger than net income of $10.6 million for first quarter 2020. Net interest income was $33.6 million for first quarter 2021, $0.4 million (1%) lower than $34.0 million for fourth quarter 2020, comprised of $1.2 million lower interest income offset by $0.8 million lower interest expense. Higher net interest income from positive rate changes (up $0.6 million) between the sequential quarters was more than offset by lower net interest income from two fewer days (down $0.6 million) and unfavorable volumes (down $0.4 million). Average interest-earning assets of $4.1 billion were minimally changed from fourth quarter 2020, with lower average loans (down $43 million, mostly from forgiveness on PPP loans outpacing new PPP and other loan growth), offset by growth in investments (up $7 million) and other interest-earning assets (up $34 million, mostly cash). Average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.8 billion increased $20 million (1%) over fourth quarter 2020, comprised of higher core interest-bearing deposits (up $110 million), and lower brokered deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities (down $90 million combined). The mix of average interest-earning assets continues to impact the margin trend most, at 69% loans (comprised of 5% PPP loans earning 7.65% and 64% all other loans earning 4.57%), 13% investments and 18% other interest-earning assets (mostly low-earning cash), compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 70% loans (7% in PPP loans earning 5.26% and 63% all other loans earning 4.71%), 13% investments and 17% other interest-earning assets. The mix of interest-bearing liabilities for first quarter was 98% deposits costing 44bps and 2% all other borrowings costing 2.42%, compared to fourth quarter 2020 with 95% deposits costing 53bps and 5% all other borrowings costing 1.63% (of which over half was very low-cost funding directly related to PPP). The net interest margin for first quarter 2021 was 3.31%, up 2bps from 3.29% for fourth quarter 2020, as the yield on interest-earning assets declined 5bps (to 3.63%), the cost of funds favorably declined 11bps (to 0.47%), and the contribution from net free funds fell 4bps. Loans yielded 4.80% for first quarter 2021, up 4bps from fourth quarter 2020, with total PPP loans yielding 7.65% (up 239bps over fourth quarter, aided mostly by accelerating fee accretion in line with loan forgiveness), while all other loans earned 4.57% (down 14bps from the prior quarter, pressured by new or renewed loans in the lower rate environment). Investments yielded 1.96%, 19bps lower than fourth quarter 2020, as new funds are invested in the lower rate environment. The cost of funds of 0.47% for first quarter 2021 declined 11bps on a sequential quarter basis, attributable mainly to the timing of prudent pricing actions on core interest-bearing deposits (down 8bps to 0.31% for first quarter 2021). Noninterest income was $17.1 million for first quarter 2021, up $0.2 million (1%) compared to fourth quarter 2020. Excluding net asset gains (losses), noninterest income was $16.4 million, down $1.1 million (6%) from fourth quarter 2020. Net mortgage income of $7.2 million remains strong, though down from the record levels experienced in 2020, on lower sale gains and capitalized gains combined (down $0.4 million or 5%) and net unfavorable fair value marks (down $0.2 million). Trust services fee income and brokerage fee income combined increased $0.1 million (3%) over fourth quarter 2020. Net asset gains were $0.7 million (comprised primarily of market gains on equity securities), compared to net asset losses of $0.6 million in fourth quarter 2020 (mostly from $1.0 million of net losses on branch other real estate owned write-downs, partly offset by $0.4 million of market gains on equity securities). All remaining noninterest income categories combined decreased $0.6 million from fourth quarter 2020 largely due to $0.4 million lower BOLI income. Noninterest expense of $26.1 million increased $0.7 million (3%) from fourth quarter 2020. Personnel expense decreased slightly ($0.1 million or 1%) from fourth quarter 2020, with a 3% overall increase in base salaries for the new year more than offset by lower non-salary personnel costs combined given timing and pace changes in the new year. All non-personnel expenses combined increased $0.8 million (8%) over fourth quarter 2020, largely due to $0.5 million higher professional costs related to the recently announced acquisition and $0.2 million higher FDIC expense from the larger assessment base. On April 12, 2021, we entered into a definitive merger agreement with Mackinac Financial Corporation ("Mackinac" (NASDAQ: MFNC)) pursuant to which Mackinac will merge with and into Nicolet, expanding Nicolet prominently into Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Mackinac shareholders will receive fixed consideration of 0.22 shares of Nicolet and $4.64 in cash for each share owned (approximating a 20% cash and 80% stock split), subject to provisions provided for in the merger agreement. At December 31, 2020, Mackinac had total assets of $1.5 billion, loans of $1.1 billion, deposits of $1.3 billion and equity of $168 million. The merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by regulators and shareholders of both Mackinac and Nicolet. "We are committed to realizing the promise of the acquisition of Mackinac Financial Corporation, which is to come together as a strong, people-driven, local community bank," said Daniels. "Our team is assembled and using their experience to help create a seamless integration. We understand that, at this point, we will be judged by our actions, not our words. It's time to deliver, and I am confident that our team will do exactly that," concluded Daniels. About Nicolet Bankshares, Inc.

Article: MINNEAPOLIS, March 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Bio-Techne Corporation (NASDAQ:TECH) today shared news from clinical partners on the use of the ProteinSimple-branded EllaAutomated Immunoassay platform in the fight against COVID-19. In a March 23, 2020 press release, the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai announced that they are utilizing Bio-Techne's Ella Automated Immunoassay Platform to monitor individual immune responses to COVID-19. Specifically, the Ella Cytokine Storm Panel is being used to detect Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS) in real-time. Cytokine Release Syndrome represents a critical point in individuals with severe COVID-19 disease where immune molecules, called cytokines, attack the patient's organs, representing a critical and potentially fatal point in disease management. As stated in its press release, "Mount Sinai clinical laboratories will use the ELLA Cytokine Storm Panel in COVID-19 patients who have been admitted to the hospital to monitor them and know, in real time, when they are experiencing cytokine storm. The test results are available in a few hours and can be repeated throughout the course of care to help guide hospital care and to measure the response to experimental drugs given in clinical trials for COVID-19 patients."

Mount Sinai joins hospitals in Italy and throughout Europe that have and are continuing to adopt the Ella platform for CRS testing during this crisis. Ella's sensitivity, simplified workflow, and fast time-to-results make the platform ideal for CRS testing and are the key factors driving this adoption. These developments follow the 2018 announcement that Micropoint Biotechnologies of China is developing clinical applications for the detection of CRS on the Ella platform. "Ella is a potentially important tool for monitoring and saving patients who are infected by COVID-19," commented Chuck Kummeth, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bio-Techne. "The Ella Cytokine Storm Panel has the potential to enable front line healthcare workers to triage high-risk COVID-19 patients in real-time, guide hospital care and to measure responses to experimental clinical trial drugs. Ella joins several other products Bio-Techne has deployed to combat COVID-19, including RNAscope for detection of coronavirus in tissue and antibodies for vaccine development. We are focused on leveraging our deep portfolio and developing new tools to enable solutions for this rapidly evolving pandemic." Bio-Techne aims to further enable customers to utilize the Ella platform for this and other clinical applications where time-to-results is critical. To that end, Bio-Techne is investing in both near-term and long-term efforts to enable broader clinical adoption of Ella and expand beyond its current Research Use Only (RUO) status. This includes partnering with clinical research customers to pursue Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) status for COVID-19 testing in key regions, as well as investing in manufacturing and quality control systems required for diagnostic products.

These developments follow the 2018 announcement that Micropoint Biotechnologies of China is developing clinical applications for the detection of CRS on the Ella platform. "Ella is a potentially important tool for monitoring and saving patients who are infected by COVID-19," commented Chuck Kummeth, President and Chief Executive Officer of Bio-Techne. "The Ella Cytokine Storm Panel has the potential to enable front line healthcare workers to triage high-risk COVID-19 patients in real-time, guide hospital care and to measure responses to experimental clinical trial drugs. Ella joins several other products Bio-Techne has deployed to combat COVID-19, including RNAscope for detection of coronavirus in tissue and antibodies for vaccine development. We are focused on leveraging our deep portfolio and developing new tools to enable solutions for this rapidly evolving pandemic." Bio-Techne aims to further enable customers to utilize the Ella platform for this and other clinical applications where time-to-results is critical. To that end, Bio-Techne is investing in both near-term and long-term efforts to enable broader clinical adoption of Ella and expand beyond its current Research Use Only (RUO) status. This includes partnering with clinical research customers to pursue Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) status for COVID-19 testing in key regions, as well as investing in manufacturing and quality control systems required for diagnostic products.

Article: SILVER SPRING, Md., April 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Every step we have taken as part of our approach to COVID-19 testing has been a careful balancing of risks and benefits in order to meet the urgent public health needs as we combat this new pathogen. We have moved quickly and thoughtfully, and we are continuing to learn and adapt based on the real-world experience and data we're seeing. In the meantime, frontline health care workers who are making life-and-death decisions every day in their fight against this novel coronavirus need to have all the information possible to make educated decisions about which test to use to help identify individuals who have developed an immune response to the virus. We are committed to providing as up-to-date information as possible to support their heroic efforts. As the country starts to see positive signs that the mitigation efforts, like stay-at-home orders and social distancing, are working in our fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, the question of when we can return to work and resume our normal activities is one of the most critical issues facing our nation. Antibody tests also known as serological tests may have the potential to play a role in this complex calculation. Results from these tests can help identify who has been infected and developed antibodies that may protect from future infection as well as identify those still at risk. Results can also help inform who may qualify to donate blood that can be used to manufacture convalescent plasma, an investigational product for use with those who are seriously ill from COVID-19. Today, given the active dialogue about serological tests that are currently on the market, and their significance in the nation's response efforts, we'd like to provide further details about our thinking on these tests and our approach to making accurate and reliable serology tests widely available, while also protecting Americans from tests marketed with false or unsubstantiated claims. FDA Approach to Expanding Access to Serology Tests First, we continue to provide the opportunity for interested developers to request FDA authorization through the emergency use authorization (EUA) process. To date, we have already issued four EUAs for serological tests, and we expect that number to continue to grow in the coming weeks. The FDA encourages developers to submit EUA requests for their tests, as an EUA will provide laboratories and providers with assurance that FDA has reviewed that test. We are working around-the-clock to review EUA submissions quickly and we continue to take steps to ensure the process is as streamlined and efficient as possible. For example, we are working on EUA Templates that laboratories and commercial manufacturers may use to facilitate the preparation and submission of an EUA request. We expect to make them available in the coming days. To enhance the U.S. Government's ability to identify well-performing tests and inform FDA recommendations and decision making, we are collaboratingwith the National Institutes of Health's National Cancer Institute (NCI) and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to establish a capability at NIH to evaluate serological tests for developers. This effort includes tests already available for use, as well as tests not yet on the market where additional validation data is needed to support an EUA. Performance assessments for serological tests will begin soon, and we expect to start seeing results shortly thereafter. We will review NIH's results expeditiously, and performance results from NIH's assessment may complement and inform the determination of whether FDA issues an EUA for a particular test. Recognizing that more flexibility was needed during a pandemic of this scale and speed, and incorporating feedback from the medical community, states and test developers, we have also provided regulatory flexibility for serological tests in an effort to provide laboratories and health care providers with early access to these tests with the understanding that the FDA had not reviewed or authorized (or "approved") them, at least not initially, and these tests should not be used for diagnosing or excluding active SARS-CoV-2 infection. Specifically, last month, as part of our broader strategy, the FDA issued a policy explaining that FDA does not intend to object when developers of serological tests market or use their tests without prior FDA review where: 1) the tests are validated by the developer to determine that they are accurate and reliable, 2) notification of the developer's validation is provided to FDA, and 3) the tests are labeled appropriately, including that they are not to be used as a sole basis for diagnosis. Our policy does not apply to at-home specimen collection or at-home testing because of the added challenges in assuring test accuracy that these pose. The policy does apply to tests that can be performed in patient care settings. Laboratories could validate tests they receive from commercial manufacturers and determine if they should be used in their facilities. Some laboratories have already done so or have developed their own serological tests. The bottom line is that FDA still expects tests to be validated even under our revised policy for tests. However, the EUA process or an evaluation by NIH supports greater confidence in test performance. How the Tests Work Unlike a test designed to diagnose an active COVID-19 infection (specifically from the SARS-CoV-2 virus), serological tests can help identify individuals who have developed an immune response to the virus, either as part of an active infection or a prior infection. The tests detect the presence of antibodies in the blood if antibodies are present, that indicates that the person has been exposed to the virus and developed antibodies against it, which may mean that person has at least some immunity to the coronavirus. In the early days of an infection when the body's immune response is still building, antibodies may not be detected, which is why serological tests should not be used as the sole basis to diagnose or exclude infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. There is still a great deal about COVID-19 immunity that we don't yet fully understand. For example, we don't yet know that just because someone has developed antibodies, that they are fully protected from reinfection, or how long any immunity lasts. We do expect that data from more widespread serological testing will help us track the spread of the virus nationwide and assess the impact of our public health efforts now, while also informing our COVID-19 response as we continue to move forward. Determining the next steps in our response to COVID-19 is partially dependent on an accurate assessment of our national efforts thus far, and the quality of data for making this decision is dependent on accurate testing products. Why Validation Data Are Needed All clinical tests should be validated prior to use, and this expectation is articulated in our March 16 policy. We have provided regulatory flexibility regarding the independent check by FDA for antibody tests that are limited in their clinical applications, but still expect all developers to validate their tests prior to offering them for limited clinical uses. To minimize the number of false positive results, serological tests must be well-designed to specifically identify antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and must not "cross-react," or provide positive results when encountering antibodies against other respiratory viruses. Concerns and Education for Frontline Workers and States Currently, we are working on several fronts to provide more clarity about which tests have received FDA review and which have not. In addition, to facilitate awareness of these serological tests, the FDA has been posting on its website the tests for which it has received a notification under this policy since mid-March. We have also updated our website to better clarify which tests have been authorized by FDA and which have not been authorized. However, some test developers have misused the serology test kit notification list to falsely claim their serological tests are FDA approved or authorized. Others have falsely claimed that their tests can diagnose COVID-19. When we become aware of these issues, we have and will continue to take appropriate action against firms making or distributing unvalidated tests or those making false claims, such as issuing Warning Letters requesting that companies stop their unlawful promotion and detaining and refusing fraudulent test kits at the border. We are sharing educational materials with state governments, hospital systems, payors, and health care professional associations to ensure they understand the potential for false-positive results in tests that have not yet been reviewed by FDA, and can make educated decisions when considering purchasing, insuring and using these tests. We have been and will continue actively engaging with the testing development community to continue to gain input and provide clarity around our processes, policies and validation efforts.

Article: MIAMI BEACH, Fla., June 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Last year the Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce (Chamber) began developing a Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Council that officially launched February 2020 and is Co-Chaired by Eva Dias and Andre Williams. The Chamber continues to strive to improve the quality of life for our diverse community and is looking forward to making significant contributions with this new Council. Diversity and inclusion are core values for the Chamber and it is critical that we incorporate these values into all aspects of our work including advocacy, communications, workplace environment, vendor selection, hiring, promotion and retention. In order to carry out the Chamber's core values, Committee will foster a shared culture at the Chamber that promotes the goals of accepting, respecting and valuing differences that include attributes such as age, race, gender, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender expression, sexual identity, ability, language, family circumstances and cultural backgrounds. "I appreciate the support from the Chamber, Board Chair Robin Jacobs and Chamber President & CEO Jerry Libbin for the DE&I Council," said Williams. "These goals can only be achieved by engaging leadership in mainstream organizations like the Chamber to promote diversity, equity and inclusion to its member businesses whose bottom line will grow because of it." "The world will be a better place when we recognize that diversity, equity and inclusion are no longer a necessary discussion," said Dias. "I look forward to the day that our mission is just part of our regular life and that we have completed our Council's goals through the Chamber." "I want to acknowledge Andre and Eva's leadership as co-chairs," said Chair of the Board Robin Jacobs. "A diverse workforce means having a greater variety of backgrounds, talents, and experiences." On June 30 at 4 PM, the Chamber will host a free webinar on how minority businesses can apply for and receive contracts with the City of Miami Beach. City officials will be present. To date the Council has done the following: In an effort to expand their multicultural efforts, the Council has developed partnerships with other organizations and government entities such asthe City's procurement department, the Brazilian Consulateand theGreater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau.

Article: NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR), a leading supplier of single-plane illumination microscopy (SPIM) technology for research on live cells and cleared biological samples, today announced that two Luxendo MuVi and LCS SPIM light-sheet microscopes have been installed by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). The funding for the two light-sheet fluorescence microscopes was supported by Cycle for Survival (https://www.cycleforsurvival.org). The new SPIM microscopes will help researchers visualize the cellular and tissue hallmarks of cancer and translate those findings into better cancer treatment methods. By understanding how cells mobilize to build organs, researchers can glean insights into why some cells become cancerous and lead to organ destruction, said Dr. Anna-Katerina Hadjantonakis, MSK Chair of the Developmental Biology Program. Instruments such as these are useful for imaging across differing length scales from subcellular to single cells to tissue-level processes allowing researchers to study cellular dynamics and cellular motion, processes that enable cells to metastasize. Light-sheet fluorescence microscopy has emerged as a uniquely powerful method for high-resolution, cleared-sample and dynamic biological imaging, added Dr. Lars Hufnagel, Vice President and General Manager of Brukers Luxendo light-sheet microscopy business. We couldnt be more pleased that our technology will be assisting the great MSK researchers and programs in such important work. About the MuVi and LCS SPIM Systems Brukers SPIM systems avoid sample phototoxicity by sequentially illuminating a stack of small slices of the organism, allowing scientists to observe living organisms for extended periods of time without photodamage. In particular, MuVi SPIM allows fast 3D imaging of live cells and living objects, such as spheroids and whole specimens, without the need of sample rotation. Despite the fact that sample rotation is not necessarily needed for a non-isotropic acquisition, the MuVi SPIM system provides this degree of freedom such that isotropic resolution can be achieved. The modular LCS SPIM for large, cleared samples has been designed to be compatible with a broad variety of clearing solutions and sample sizes. Its new sample mounting approach and innovative optical design enables unprecedented acquisition times and minimizes sample distortions while seamlessly integrating into existing clearing and sample preparation pipelines. To handle the vast amount of data produced by the light-sheet technique, Lux DATA comprehensive data processing and storage provides fast transfer and large-capacity storage and leverages multi-core- and multi-GPU-based processing. About Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR) Bruker is enabling scientists to make breakthrough discoveries and develop new applications that improve the quality of human life. Brukers high performance scientific instruments and high value analytical and diagnostic solutions enable scientists to explore life and materials at molecular, cellular and microscopic levels. In close cooperation with our customers, Bruker is enabling innovation, improved productivity and customer success in life science molecular and cell biology research, in applied and pharma applications, in microscopy and nanoanalysis, as well as in industrial applications. Bruker offers differentiated, high-value life science and diagnostics systems and solutions in preclinical imaging, clinical phenomics research, proteomics and multiomics, spatial and single-cell biology, functional structural and condensate biology, as well as in clinical microbiology and molecular diagnostics.

Article: NEW YORK, Dec.3, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --Kubient(NasdaqCM: KBNT, KBNTW), the cloud advertising marketplace that enables advertisers and publishers to reach, monetize and connect their audiences efficiently and effectively, today announced the identification of previously undetected fraudulent synthetic network (SynthNet) designed to present web based or computer generated traffic as legitimate mobile application traffic coming from premium app publishers. The SynthNet fraud was detected through Kubient's Artificial Intelligence (KAI), an in-stream ad-fraud prevention tool that uses pattern recognition and device scoring to catch and identify fraud before it happens. The result was a significant amount of fraudulent website and computer traffic being transmitted that claimed to come from mobile sources like The Washington Post, Weather Underground, and a mixture of apps in other categories such as gaming, entertainment, utilities, shopping, and food. SynthNet is a Central Control System (CCS) bot, meaning it doesn't infect devices or make calls from third party networks, but rather it is deployed directly by the fraudsters on their own systems. These bad actors use it to sell fraudulent traffic as a video ad placement which offers a higher payout to the publisher compared to traditional display advertising. To deploy SynthNet at large scale and have wide saturation across the United States, SynthNet used a Cloud Service Broker (CSB). The service enabled SynthNet to be deployed across multiple cloud providers such as AWS, Google and Azure without needing a direct account with the services and it allows them to continue to operate and deploy if they are disabled from any single provider. "Bad actors are getting smarter about finding ways to send false impressions," said Paul Roberts, Interim CEO and founder of Kubient. "We continue to urge advertisers to be cautious of the partners they allow into their tech stacks and remain skeptical about suspicious activity or CPMs that appear to be too good to be true. As ad budgets are still recovering due to COVID-19, it's important that media buyers are buying quality inventory and are catching fraud as soon as possible." The KAI algorithm is trained to analyze the behavior, consistency, and quality to determine audience credibility - accurately flagging fraud within the 300 milliseconds time frame of a programmatic advertising auction. In fact, Kubient's technology catches it in less than 10 milliseconds, which the company believes is faster than any other tool on the market. In the case of SynthNet, Kubient saw two things in a routine analysis of KAI: Fingerprint device information called "User Agents" that were being used in the auction requests which were many versions passed the current iterations of the web browsers they portrayed; and The same "User Agents" were in fact Mobile Web traffic, yet the criminals were attempting to sell the advertising impressions as Mobile App traffic. "Fraudsters have devised simplistic yet agile systems that allow them to do less work but achieve maximum impact while evading typical anti-fraud measures," stated Roberts. "KAI technology goes beyond the narrow scope our competitors are relying on and allows us to weed out this new crop of criminals quickly before our clients spend any money." Following the unveiling of the fraud, Kubient reached out to the three companies that had been impacted by the invalid traffic and is working to future proof their ad operations moving forward. This discovery comes on the heels of the Kubient Fraud Prevention Team also discovering Weasel Fraud in October.

Article: BRONX, N.Y., July 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Britta Will, Ph.D., assistant professor of medicine and of cell biology at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, has won a 2020 Pershing Square Sohn Prize for Young Investigators in Cancer Research. Dr. Will is one of seven New York City area-based scientists to receive the prestigious award, which provides $600,000 over three years for innovative basic science cancer research. Dr. Will's award will help fund her studies on the mechanisms that create and sustain cancer stem cellsa unique and therapy-resistant population of cancer cells in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), two age-related and largely incurable blood cancers. Watch video of Dr. Britta Will describing her cancer research. "I'm very excited and honored that the Pershing Square Sohn Cancer Research Alliance selected me for this award," Dr. Will said. "The prize will boost my lab's efforts to make scientific advances that can help us better understand these cancers and work toward developing drugs that can benefit patients. With every publication, with every piece of data we put out there, we increase the knowledge and our ability to help patients. Being able to work on this every day is a real privilege." When people have AML or MDS, a small population of cancerous blood stem cells, called leukemic stem cells (LSCs), resists chemotherapy and causes the cancers to relapse. Dr. Will plans to investigate how iron influences LSCs. Specifically, she will study iron regulatory pathways, key processes that determine how cells acquire and use this essential nutrient. In research involving mouse models of myeloid leukemia and human LSCs, she willdetermine whether limiting the cells' access to iron can slow or prevent cancer growth. Results could lead to new drugs that could limit iron availability and make cancer stem cells more susceptible to chemotherapy. Dr. Will noted that the prize specifically supports early-stage research that is impossible to get funded through traditional grants. "The Pershing Square Sohn Alliance's mission stresses that no one should be afraid to start something new and out-of-the-box," said Dr. Will, whose lab includes four postdoctoral researchers, a Ph.D. student, and several technicians. "This award enables us to step out of our comfort zone. It's also a great encouragement that provides an ecosystem for younger trainees on these projects to develop their careers." "This is a well-deserved honor for Dr. Will," said Roman Perez-Soler,M.D.,chief of medical oncology at Einstein and chair of oncology at Montefiore Health System. "Her creative and bold research earned her this award and we look forward to her continued success and scientific discoveries." Dr. Will is the second Einstein faculty member to win the Pershing Square Sohn prize; in 2015, the Alliance awarded the honor to Evripidis Gavathiotis, Ph.D., professor of biochemistry and of medicine. About Albert Einstein College of MedicineAlbert Einstein College of Medicineis one of the nation's premier centers for research, medical education and clinical investigation. During the 2019-20 academic year, Einstein is home to 724 M.D.students, 158 Ph.D. students, 106 students in the combined M.D./Ph.D. program, and 265 postdoctoral research fellows.

Article: NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on hospital acute care, gastroenterology and rheumatology, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial results. Net Revenues for the fourth quarter were $10.3 million, up 10% over the prior year period. For the full year 2020, Net Revenues totaled $37.4 million, a 9% increase over 2019. The company also recorded an additional $3.2 million in revenue during the year associated with divested product rights for two brands it is no longer distributing. As of December31, 2020, the total assets of the Company were $96.5 million, including $24.8 million in cash and investments. Total Liabilities were $49.6 million, and Total Shareholder's Equity was $47 million. Cumberland also had approximately $44 million in tax net operating loss carryforwards, resulting from the prior exercise of stock options. 2020 Highlights: Implemented national launch of a Next Generation Caldolor product featuring a ready-to-use formulation in a pre-mixed bag Commenced several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access Cumberland's acute care brands during the COVID-19 pandemic Announced a series of publications featuring important new data associated with the Company's Caldolor (ibuprofen) Injection, for the treatment of pain and fever and Vibativ (telavancin) Injection, for the treatment of hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, as well as complicated skin and skin structure infections Introduced an FDA-approved RediTrex line of injectable methotrexate products, featuring an innovative delivery system for patients with arthritis "We are grateful that Cumberland was able to successfully manage through the pandemic during 2020, in spite of the significant market headwinds and other challenges we encountered," said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "Our facilities remained open, our operations continued, and our organization remained intact." He continued, "I would like to acknowledge and thank my colleagues for their continued dedication during such trying times for many. Together, we remain focused on our mission of advancing patient care through the delivery of high-quality medicines." Caldolor Early in 2020, Cumberland implemented a national launch of its Next Generation Caldolorproduct featuring a ready-to-use formulation, offering time and cost savings associated with its administration. Caldolor is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and may be used as the sole method of treatment for mild-moderate pain or as part of a multimodal treatment for severe pain. Cumberland's new formulation of Caldolor comes in a pre-mixed bag that is ready for use. It is the first FDA-approved pre-mixed bag of ibuprofen. Caldolor was also the subject of several clinical studies published during the year. These studies demonstrated that patients given Caldolor experienced less postoperative pain and had decreased opioid use. Due to these studies, Caldolor was recommended for consideration in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols for the management of postoperative pain - including that of traumatic origin. Vibativ Cumberland launched several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access the Company's acute care brands during the healthcare emergency. Cumberland's Vibativ product was used to help COVID-19 patients who developed secondary-bacterial infections in their lungs. Vibativ is a potent antibiotic, FDA approved to treat hospital and ventilator acquired pneumonia that can result from a variety of infectious agents. It addresses a range of Gram-positive bacterial pathogens, including those that are considered difficult-to-treat and multidrug-resistant. Additionally, there were a series of clinical study manuscripts published during the year regarding Vibativ. One study suggested that Vibativ is a promising and viable option for patients with bacteremia or endocarditis, including those with MRSA or another S. aureus pathogen. Two other studies confirmed the continued in vitro potency of Vibativ and detailed the positive outcomes that resulted. RediTrex The Company implemented a soft launch of its newly FDA-approved RediTrex product line during the fourth quarter. Cumberland is now preparing for a full national launch during the second half of 2021, once product supplies are assured and market conditions return to normal. The Company believes that RediTrex will be a valuable addition to the portfolio and help further diversify and grow its business. RediTrex is approved for patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have difficulty tolerating or responding to orally delivered methotrexate. It is also approved for symptomatic control of severe, recalcitrant, disabling psoriasis in adults who are not adequately responsive to other forms of therapy. Omeclamox-Pak Cumberland closely monitored its supply chain during the 2020 pandemic. This included monitoring the facilities that supply the raw materials along with those that manufacture the Company's products. Overall, the chain remained intact with batches of finished goods shipped to the warehouses that supply the country's hospital and retail pharmacies. However, there was one exception, as the facility packaging Omeclamox-Pak encountered financial difficulties due to the pandemic and suspended operations. Subsequently, Cumberland learned that this facility is reorganizing, and the Company awaits the resumption of its operations. Ifetroban Phase II Clinical Programs Cumberland's development pipeline includes a series of product candidates in Phase II development. Enrollment in the Company's studies significantly slowed during the pandemic, due to trial suspensions and the decrease in eligible patient admissions to medical centers across the country. While enrollment of new patients was limited most of the year, the Company ensured that patients already entered into a trial continued to receive their study drug. Cumberland looks forward to an improvement in study enrollment as the pandemic subsides and centers begin to reopen. The Company has Phase II clinical programs underway evaluating its ifetroban product candidates in patients with cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Systemic Sclerosis, and Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease.

Net revenue by product for the three months ended December31, 2020, included $5.2 million for Kristalose, $2.3 million for Vibativ, $1.7 million for Caldolor, and $0.9million for the Company's newest brand, RediTrex.

These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release. Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance. The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows: Adjusted Earnings: net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense and other income and interest expense. (a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland. (b) Represents the write-off of deferred offering costs associated with our previous S-3. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted Earnings divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding. SOURCE Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Reports 9% Revenue Growth In 2020.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on hospital acute care, gastroenterology and rheumatology, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial results. Net Revenues for the fourth quarter were $10.3 million, up 10% over the prior year period. For the full year 2020, Net Revenues totaled $37.4 million, a 9% increase over 2019. The company also recorded an additional $3.2 million in revenue during the year associated with divested product rights for two brands it is no longer distributing. As of December31, 2020, the total assets of the Company were $96.5 million, including $24.8 million in cash and investments. Total Liabilities were $49.6 million, and Total Shareholder's Equity was $47 million. Cumberland also had approximately $44 million in tax net operating loss carryforwards, resulting from the prior exercise of stock options. 2020 Highlights: Implemented national launch of a Next Generation Caldolor product featuring a ready-to-use formulation in a pre-mixed bag Commenced several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access Cumberland's acute care brands during the COVID-19 pandemic Announced a series of publications featuring important new data associated with the Company's Caldolor (ibuprofen) Injection, for the treatment of pain and fever and Vibativ (telavancin) Injection, for the treatment of hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, as well as complicated skin and skin structure infections Introduced an FDA-approved RediTrex line of injectable methotrexate products, featuring an innovative delivery system for patients with arthritis "We are grateful that Cumberland was able to successfully manage through the pandemic during 2020, in spite of the significant market headwinds and other challenges we encountered," said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "Our facilities remained open, our operations continued, and our organization remained intact." He continued, "I would like to acknowledge and thank my colleagues for their continued dedication during such trying times for many. Together, we remain focused on our mission of advancing patient care through the delivery of high-quality medicines." Caldolor Early in 2020, Cumberland implemented a national launch of its Next Generation Caldolorproduct featuring a ready-to-use formulation, offering time and cost savings associated with its administration. Caldolor is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and may be used as the sole method of treatment for mild-moderate pain or as part of a multimodal treatment for severe pain. Cumberland's new formulation of Caldolor comes in a pre-mixed bag that is ready for use. It is the first FDA-approved pre-mixed bag of ibuprofen. Caldolor was also the subject of several clinical studies published during the year. These studies demonstrated that patients given Caldolor experienced less postoperative pain and had decreased opioid use. Due to these studies, Caldolor was recommended for consideration in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols for the management of postoperative pain - including that of traumatic origin. Vibativ Cumberland launched several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access the Company's acute care brands during the healthcare emergency. Cumberland's Vibativ product was used to help COVID-19 patients who developed secondary-bacterial infections in their lungs. Vibativ is a potent antibiotic, FDA approved to treat hospital and ventilator acquired pneumonia that can result from a variety of infectious agents. It addresses a range of Gram-positive bacterial pathogens, including those that are considered difficult-to-treat and multidrug-resistant. Additionally, there were a series of clinical study manuscripts published during the year regarding Vibativ. One study suggested that Vibativ is a promising and viable option for patients with bacteremia or endocarditis, including those with MRSA or another S. aureus pathogen. Two other studies confirmed the continued in vitro potency of Vibativ and detailed the positive outcomes that resulted. RediTrex The Company implemented a soft launch of its newly FDA-approved RediTrex product line during the fourth quarter. Cumberland is now preparing for a full national launch during the second half of 2021, once product supplies are assured and market conditions return to normal. The Company believes that RediTrex will be a valuable addition to the portfolio and help further diversify and grow its business. RediTrex is approved for patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have difficulty tolerating or responding to orally delivered methotrexate. It is also approved for symptomatic control of severe, recalcitrant, disabling psoriasis in adults who are not adequately responsive to other forms of therapy. Omeclamox-Pak Cumberland closely monitored its supply chain during the 2020 pandemic. This included monitoring the facilities that supply the raw materials along with those that manufacture the Company's products. Overall, the chain remained intact with batches of finished goods shipped to the warehouses that supply the country's hospital and retail pharmacies. However, there was one exception, as the facility packaging Omeclamox-Pak encountered financial difficulties due to the pandemic and suspended operations. Subsequently, Cumberland learned that this facility is reorganizing, and the Company awaits the resumption of its operations. Ifetroban Phase II Clinical Programs Cumberland's development pipeline includes a series of product candidates in Phase II development. Enrollment in the Company's studies significantly slowed during the pandemic, due to trial suspensions and the decrease in eligible patient admissions to medical centers across the country. While enrollment of new patients was limited most of the year, the Company ensured that patients already entered into a trial continued to receive their study drug. Cumberland looks forward to an improvement in study enrollment as the pandemic subsides and centers begin to reopen. The Company has Phase II clinical programs underway evaluating its ifetroban product candidates in patients with cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Systemic Sclerosis, and Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease. FINANCIAL RESULTS: Net Revenue: For the three months ended December31, 2020, net revenues were $10.3 million, up 10% from $9.3 million for the prior year period.

Net revenue by product for the three months ended December31, 2020, included $5.2 million for Kristalose, $2.3 million for Vibativ, $1.7 million for Caldolor, and $0.9million for the Company's newest brand, RediTrex. For the year ended December31, 2020, net revenues were $37.4million, an 8.9% increase compared to $34.4million for the year ended December31, 2019.

Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses for the three months ended December31, 2020 were $12.0 million, down from $12.7 million for the prior year period. Total operating expenses for the year ended December31, 2020 were $43.8million, similar to $43.7million for 2019. Adjusted Earnings: Adjusted Earnings for the three months ended December31, 2020 were $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $(1.9) million, or $(0.12) per share for the prior year period. Adjusted Earnings for the full year ended December31, 2020 were a loss of $(0.1)million, or $(0.01) per share, a significant turnaround over the loss of $(3.4) million, or $(0.22) per share in 2019. This performance measure represents net income attributable to common shareholders with adjustments for the impact of income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share based compensation expenses and expenses that are non-core to the operating performance of the period. The definition and the reconciliation of Adjusted Earnings are provided in this release. Cash Flow: Cash flow from operations for the year ended December31, 2020 was $5.4million, compared to $3.1million for the prior year. Balance Sheet: At December31, 2020, Cumberland had $24.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. Total assets at December31, 2020 were $96.5 million. Total Liabilities were $49.6 million, including $15.0 million outstanding on the Company's revolving line of credit and $8.2 million related to contingent liabilities related to the Vibativ acquisition, resulting in Total Shareholder's Equity of $47 million.

These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release. Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance. The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows: Adjusted Earnings: net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense and other income and interest expense. (a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland. (b) Represents the write-off of deferred offering costs associated with our previous S-3. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted Earnings divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding. SOURCE Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Article: NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ --Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CPIX), a specialty pharmaceutical company focused on hospital acute care, gastroenterology and rheumatology, today announced fourth quarter and full year 2020 financial results. Net Revenues for the fourth quarter were $10.3 million, up 10% over the prior year period. For the full year 2020, Net Revenues totaled $37.4 million, a 9% increase over 2019. The company also recorded an additional $3.2 million in revenue during the year associated with divested product rights for two brands it is no longer distributing. As of December31, 2020, the total assets of the Company were $96.5 million, including $24.8 million in cash and investments. Total Liabilities were $49.6 million, and Total Shareholder's Equity was $47 million. Cumberland also had approximately $44 million in tax net operating loss carryforwards, resulting from the prior exercise of stock options. 2020 Highlights: Implemented national launch of a Next Generation Caldolor product featuring a ready-to-use formulation in a pre-mixed bag Commenced several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access Cumberland's acute care brands during the COVID-19 pandemic Announced a series of publications featuring important new data associated with the Company's Caldolor (ibuprofen) Injection, for the treatment of pain and fever and Vibativ (telavancin) Injection, for the treatment of hospital-acquired and ventilator-associated bacterial pneumonia, as well as complicated skin and skin structure infections Introduced an FDA-approved RediTrex line of injectable methotrexate products, featuring an innovative delivery system for patients with arthritis "We are grateful that Cumberland was able to successfully manage through the pandemic during 2020, in spite of the significant market headwinds and other challenges we encountered," said A.J. Kazimi, Chief Executive Officer of Cumberland Pharmaceuticals. "Our facilities remained open, our operations continued, and our organization remained intact." He continued, "I would like to acknowledge and thank my colleagues for their continued dedication during such trying times for many. Together, we remain focused on our mission of advancing patient care through the delivery of high-quality medicines." Caldolor Early in 2020, Cumberland implemented a national launch of its Next Generation Caldolorproduct featuring a ready-to-use formulation, offering time and cost savings associated with its administration. Caldolor is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and may be used as the sole method of treatment for mild-moderate pain or as part of a multimodal treatment for severe pain. Cumberland's new formulation of Caldolor comes in a pre-mixed bag that is ready for use. It is the first FDA-approved pre-mixed bag of ibuprofen. Caldolor was also the subject of several clinical studies published during the year. These studies demonstrated that patients given Caldolor experienced less postoperative pain and had decreased opioid use. Due to these studies, Caldolor was recommended for consideration in Enhanced Recovery After Surgery protocols for the management of postoperative pain - including that of traumatic origin. Vibativ Cumberland launched several national initiatives during 2020 to help hospitals access the Company's acute care brands during the healthcare emergency. Cumberland's Vibativ product was used to help COVID-19 patients who developed secondary-bacterial infections in their lungs. Vibativ is a potent antibiotic, FDA approved to treat hospital and ventilator acquired pneumonia that can result from a variety of infectious agents. It addresses a range of Gram-positive bacterial pathogens, including those that are considered difficult-to-treat and multidrug-resistant. Additionally, there were a series of clinical study manuscripts published during the year regarding Vibativ. One study suggested that Vibativ is a promising and viable option for patients with bacteremia or endocarditis, including those with MRSA or another S. aureus pathogen. Two other studies confirmed the continued in vitro potency of Vibativ and detailed the positive outcomes that resulted. RediTrex The Company implemented a soft launch of its newly FDA-approved RediTrex product line during the fourth quarter. Cumberland is now preparing for a full national launch during the second half of 2021, once product supplies are assured and market conditions return to normal. The Company believes that RediTrex will be a valuable addition to the portfolio and help further diversify and grow its business. RediTrex is approved for patients with severe, active rheumatoid arthritis and polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis who have difficulty tolerating or responding to orally delivered methotrexate. It is also approved for symptomatic control of severe, recalcitrant, disabling psoriasis in adults who are not adequately responsive to other forms of therapy. Omeclamox-Pak Cumberland closely monitored its supply chain during the 2020 pandemic. This included monitoring the facilities that supply the raw materials along with those that manufacture the Company's products. Overall, the chain remained intact with batches of finished goods shipped to the warehouses that supply the country's hospital and retail pharmacies. However, there was one exception, as the facility packaging Omeclamox-Pak encountered financial difficulties due to the pandemic and suspended operations. Subsequently, Cumberland learned that this facility is reorganizing, and the Company awaits the resumption of its operations. Ifetroban Phase II Clinical Programs Cumberland's development pipeline includes a series of product candidates in Phase II development. Enrollment in the Company's studies significantly slowed during the pandemic, due to trial suspensions and the decrease in eligible patient admissions to medical centers across the country. While enrollment of new patients was limited most of the year, the Company ensured that patients already entered into a trial continued to receive their study drug. Cumberland looks forward to an improvement in study enrollment as the pandemic subsides and centers begin to reopen. The Company has Phase II clinical programs underway evaluating its ifetroban product candidates in patients with cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Systemic Sclerosis, and Aspirin-Exacerbated Respiratory Disease. FINANCIAL RESULTS: Net Revenue: For the three months ended December31, 2020, net revenues were $10.3 million, up 10% from $9.3 million for the prior year period. The company also recorded an additional $900,000 in revenue during the fourth quarter associated with divested product rights. Net revenue by product for the three months ended December31, 2020, included $5.2 million for Kristalose, $2.3 million for Vibativ, $1.7 million for Caldolor, and $0.9million for the Company's newest brand, RediTrex. For the year ended December31, 2020, net revenues were $37.4million, an 8.9% increase compared to $34.4million for the year ended December31, 2019. Additionally, the company recorded a total of $3.2 million in revenue during 2020 associated with divested product rights. Net revenue by product for the year ended December31, 2020, included $15.6million for Kristalose, $10.9million for Vibativ, $5.3million for Caldolor, $1.9million for Acetadote (including the brand and Company's Authorized Generic), $1.1million for Vaprisol, $0.9million for RediTrex, and $0.3million for Omeclamox- Pak. Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses for the three months ended December31, 2020 were $12.0 million, down from $12.7 million for the prior year period. Total operating expenses for the year ended December31, 2020 were $43.8million, similar to $43.7million for 2019. Adjusted Earnings: Adjusted Earnings for the three months ended December31, 2020 were $0.2 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $(1.9) million, or $(0.12) per share for the prior year period. Adjusted Earnings for the full year ended December31, 2020 were a loss of $(0.1)million, or $(0.01) per share, a significant turnaround over the loss of $(3.4) million, or $(0.22) per share in 2019. This performance measure represents net income attributable to common shareholders with adjustments for the impact of income taxes, depreciation, amortization, share based compensation expenses and expenses that are non-core to the operating performance of the period. The definition and the reconciliation of Adjusted Earnings are provided in this release. Cash Flow: Cash flow from operations for the year ended December31, 2020 was $5.4million, compared to $3.1million for the prior year. Balance Sheet: At December31, 2020, Cumberland had $24.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. Total assets at December31, 2020 were $96.5 million. Total Liabilities were $49.6 million, including $15.0 million outstanding on the Company's revolving line of credit and $8.2 million related to contingent liabilities related to the Vibativ acquisition, resulting in Total Shareholder's Equity of $47 million.

These financial measures should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The definition of these supplemental measures may differ from similarly titled measures used by others. Because these supplemental financial measures exclude the effect of items that will increase or decrease the Company's reported results of operations, management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of the supplemental financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the tables accompanying this release. Cumberland's management believes these supplemental financial performance measures are important as they are used by management, along with financial measures in accordance with GAAP, to evaluate the Company's operating performance. In addition, Cumberland believes that they will be used by certain investors to measure the Company's operating results. Management believes that presenting these supplemental measures provides useful information about the Company's underlying performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that Cumberland does not believe are indicative of its core business performance or reflect long-term strategic activities. Certain of these items are not settled through cash payments and include: depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense and income taxes. Cumberland utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to pay minimal income taxes. In addition, the use of these financial measures provides greater transparency to investors of supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making, including the evaluation of the Company's operating performance. The Company defines these supplemental financial measures as follows: Adjusted Earnings: net income (loss) adjusted for the impact of income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense and other income and interest expense. (a) Represents the share-based compensation of Cumberland. (b) Represents the write-off of deferred offering costs associated with our previous S-3. Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted Earnings divided by diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding. SOURCE Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc.
