Mind Medicine Inc. (MNMD)

QualityStocks, InvestorPlace, Schaeffer's, MarketBeat, The Wealth Report, The Street, The Stock Dork, MarketClub Analysis, Daily Trade Alert, Wealth Daily, Trades Of The Day and PsychedelicNewsWire reported earlier on Mind Medicine Inc. (MNMD), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

The growing psychedelic industry is charting its own path to commercialization instead of following cannabis’ footprints. The psychedelics industry is basing its approach on facts and research, unlike cannabis, which centered on legalization.

Experts in the psychedelic field have been conducting research on the substances for decades now, which has led to the discovery of various benefits that psychedelics hold. Researchers started studying psychedelics in the 1950s, until two decades later when the Controlled Substances Act came into effect. This act made it illegal to hold, much less carry out research on these compounds, which were classified into different schedules.

It wasn’t until the early 2000s that scientists from John Hopkins University acquired regulatory approval to recommence studies into the substances. In 2006, one study determined that one dose of psilocybin was safe for administration and held long-term benefits. Psilocybin is a naturally occurring psychoactive compound found in hallucinogenic mushrooms. Since then, over 150 peer-reviewed articles on psychedelics have been published in scientific journals.

Institutions such as Stanford University have become research pioneers in the burgeoning field while others, including the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, have launched the Center for Psychedelic & Consciousness Research. This center is dedicated to advancing the scientific understanding of psychedelics and their potential for treating mental-health conditions, expanding understanding of consciousness and improving well-being.

Healthcare professionals haven’t been left behind either. Dr. Lynn Marie Morski, a former VA physician, helped set up the Psychedelic Medicine Association. This organization is focused on narrowing the gap between psychedelic therapies and conventional medical care through education, research and data.

The private sector is also helping advance psychedelic research, funding new research and commercializing therapies that incorporate psilocybin, MDMA and ketamine. Major players in the field include Lykos Therapeutics, a company based in California that has concluded two phase 3 trials for post-traumatic stress disorder. The company has also submitted a new drug application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for MDMA for use in combination with psychological intervention administered by qualified healthcare practitioners. The FDA is expected to finish its review later this year.

The drug’s approval would lead to the rescheduling of MDMA to allow for medical use.

Currently, however, it remains classified under Schedule I. Substances under this classification are said to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use.

MAPS’ director of communications Betty Aldworth believes the private industry will play a crucial role in this growing sector. This view is supported by the R&D efforts currently being undertaken by for-profit entities such as Mind Medicine Inc. (NASDAQ: MNMD) (NEO: MMED) (DE: MMQ) that are geared at taking psychedelic drug candidates through the FDA approval process.

Mind Medicine Inc. (MNMD), closed Thursday's trading session at $4.77, up 3.2468%, on 630,564 volume with 00 trades. The average volume for the last 3 months is 3.202M and the stock's 52-week low/high is $2.41 /$5.35 .

(CGC), and today we highlight the Company, here at the QualityStocks Daily Newsletter.

A recent study on the online search behavior concerning delta-8 THC says that the cannabinoid seems to be substantially more common in states where cannabis is still prohibited, based on information obtained from Google Trends. According to an analysis by CBD Nationwide, delta-8 THC online searches were almost twice as common in states where recreational marijuana is still illegal. This indicates that there has been a notable movement toward other cannabinoids in reaction to marijuana prohibitions.

A contributing factor to the popularity of delta-8 in these states is its extensive availability, both online and in physical stores such as gas stations, smoke shops and convenience stores. The cannabinoid, which is usually derived from hemp or synthesized from different parts of the plant, is legal in the United States.

According to the company, the difference in interest in the substance between states with differing cannabis laws was statistically significant, and the results were unlikely to have been caused by random chance, as evidenced by the very low p-value.

Google searches for the cannabinoid have increased dramatically in recent years, the study noted, with an 850% spike in the year 2021 alone. According to a 2023 AMA study, states that prohibit cannabis use may unintentionally promote the use of delta-8 items, a trend likely aggravated by hemp being federally legalized under the Farm Bill 2018.

The CBD Nationwide study indicated that there is more interest in delta-9 THC in states where cannabis is illegal, albeit to a lesser extent. To validate the results, the analysis used statistical tests such as Tukey’s Honestly Significant Difference (HSD) tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA).

The study, however, did not delve into the specific context of these searches, leaving it unclear if individuals in states where cannabis is illegal were seeking cannabinoid products or simply researching related laws and scientific information. Legislators, activists and business interests all have different opinions about how to regulate newly discovered cannabinoids. Certain states have chosen to prohibit or limit the sale of the substances, while others support updated federal regulations that treat intoxication cannabinoids apart from CBD.

State cannabis authorities have asked Congress to take into account laws that cover a wider range of newly discovered cannabinoids rather than only CBD.

Congress is expected to discuss the issue during the upcoming Farm Bill negotiations, which have been delayed due to a short-term extension of the existing legislation.

The analysis of search traffic shows that ending prohibition and letting cannabis companies such as Canopy Growth Corp. (NASDAQ: CGC) (TSX: WEED) to operate within a regulated marketplace facilitates public health because residents will not be pushed to try alternatives sourced from gray- or black-market actors.

Canopy Growth Corp. (CGC), closed Thursday's trading session at $3.37, up -2.0349%, on 1,704,854 volume with 00 trades. The average volume for the last 3 months is 2.943M and the stock's 52-week low/high is $3.30 /$24.364 .

Market Outlook

Fr8Tech’s established foothold in Mexico is key to its current efforts to promote sustainable growth in the cross-border shipping industry. Ongoing disruption in U.S.-Chinese trade relations have strengthened Mexico’s status as the largest trading partner of the U.S., with cross-border annual freight spending estimated at $385 billion according to data from the U.S. Department of Transportation. Annual domestic shipping in Mexico is estimated at $34 billion, while annual domestic shipping in the U.S. is estimated to total $732 billion.

Despite the size of this industry, fragmentation and inefficiencies prevail in the space. Thousands of legacy brokers, tens of thousands of shippers and hundreds of thousands of carriers still rely on outdated systems to arrange transport, spending hours on the phone negotiating pricing, waiting days to find trucks and drivers, preparing and printing forms, and operating without tracking or visibility. Add in cross-border complexity relating to customs and additional paperwork, and you have an industry ripe for technological disruption.

Fr8Tech’s recent revenue growth trends have highlighted the company’s efforts to capitalize on this opportunity. In 2021, Fr8Tech achieved revenues of $21.5 million, marking a year-over-year increase of 134%. The company issued revenue guidance for fiscal 2022 of $40 million in a February 9, 2022, press release, which would account for a further 86% year-over-year increase.

Correlate Energy Corp. (OTCQB: CIPI)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Correlate Energy Corp. (OTCQB: CIPI).

Correlate Energy (OTCQB: CIPI) has completed one of the largest rooftop solar-power facilities in Illinois. The facility was constructed at the manufacturing plant of Continental Envelope, one of the oldest envelope manufacturers in the country. Continental Envelope is focused on going green and partnered with Correlate Energy to construct the facility, which is now fully operational, along with all engineering, permitting and interconnection work completed. According to the announcement, the new solar-powered facility will supply an estimated 20%–25% of the plant's overall energy requirements and offset approximately 18,849 tons of carbon dioxide over the next two decades. Correlate also collaborated with EnerSys, a global leader in stored-energy solutions, on a solar-energy installation project totaling 3.8 megawatts. The project, which is located at the Pennsylvania headquarters of EnerSys, is one of the largest behind-the-meter solar installations in the United States.

"Continental Envelope and EnerSys are just two examples of the shift on the part of manufacturers and other businesses away from emission-causing energy sources and toward greener options," stated the press release. "Solar is a popular choice, providing 30% of the new electricity produced in the U.S. in 2019, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (‘DOE'). That was up from just 4% in 2010. The cost is also coming down, making it an affordable choice for manufacturers and businesses. At last check, installing solar panels cost less than $3 per watt, 65% cheaper than the $8.50 per watt cost a decade ago, the DOE said. As a result of all that, the solar market is projected to reach $373.84 billion by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 6.9% from now through then. . . . Correlate Energy is seeing some of that demand firsthand. In addition to Continental Envelope and EnerSys, it counts American Tire Distributors Holdings Inc. and Kyocera Corp. as customers and has a total pipeline of $512 million. Of that, about $152 million is in immediate and active projects, providing everything from solar panels to microgrids."

Correlate Energy Corp. (OTCQB: CIPI) is a publicly-traded company strategically positioned to capitalize on America’s unstoppable trend toward decentralized energy generation.

The energy grid in the U.S. is insufficient for the booming clean energy trend, and current infrastructure is limiting green energy distribution. Constructing the needed infrastructure to address this demand imbalance will cost billions and be far too slow, positioning decentralized systems, like those on offer from Correlate, in a key position for heightened demand.

Correlate has identified several key economic drivers powering the decentralized energy trend, including:

  1. Real Cost Savings – Customer pays zero money down and gets an instant electrical price discount to current rates.
  2. Massive Project Investment Funding – The International Energy Agency estimates that over one billion dollars per day will be invested in solar energy in 2023.
  3. Consistent Long-Term Incentives – The Inflation Reduction Act is a game-changer, supercharging renewables with $1.2 trillion in tax credits for 10 years of market support.
  4. Robust Customer Demand – Wood Mackenzie expects the U.S. solar industry to nearly triple in size over the next five years.

Correlate’s team of multi-decade experts who have worked with renowned global brands are positioning the company to make the most of this opportunity while consolidating a fragmented industry. Collectively, the team has developed, financed and deployed over $2 billion in clean energy projects to date.

Three-Pronged Strategy

Correlate is leveraging a three-pronged strategy aimed at driving shareholder value:

  1. Sell – Correlate seeks to finance, develop and profitably sell localized clean energy solutions and microgrids to industrial, commercial and residential customers.
  2. Retain – Correlate plans to retain ownership of some of these energy systems and thereby realize ongoing, reliable cash flow.
  3. Acquire – Correlate seeks to acquire proven renewable energy companies in order to exponentially grow earnings per share for investors.

This strategy is enhanced by current investment trends. Clean energy earnings are being sought after by investors. In Q4 2022, the median EBITDA multiple for green energy companies was 12.3x, according to Finerva.

Market Outlook

Over the next decade and beyond, renewable energy growth is expected to come primarily via decentralized systems like those offered by Correlate.
The Inflation Reduction Act enacted in late August 2022 is likewise expected to drive growth for the company by providing new tax incentives that reduce costs for clients and/or elevate returns to investors.

Commercial buildings consume more than 35% of the generated electricity in the U.S. and are underperforming in energy efficiency at every level. These buildings waste energy, emit too much carbon and are too costly for owners and occupants, but retrofits are not happening at the rate or scale needed.

In today’s real estate market, portfolio property owners own most commercial buildings, yet most building efficiency work is focused on single buildings, thereby missing the distinct needs of this owner class which are very different from traditional owner-occupiers. The diverse nature of commercial buildings, combined with technology and performance uncertainty, make simple energy optimization initiatives – which could greatly reduce energy use and improve building value – financially unattractive, resulting in slow adoption rates. CIPI’s financial instruments and software breakdown this issue, known as the ‘split incentive’, unlocking the majority of the addressable market.

A key portion of Correlate’s strategy relates to consolidation of what has been a fragmented industry. By uncovering opportunities to improve efficiencies through strategic M&A activities, the company intends to enhance profitability throughout its operations.

Mountain Top Properties Inc. (OTC: MTPP)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Mountain Top Properties Inc. (OTC: MTPP).

Despite a high interest rate environment, Hamptons-based real estate has shown remarkable resilience over the past year

Median home sales prices in the Hamptons rose by 1.7% in 2023

Mountain Top has partnered with On Site Builder Construction, a long-standing and reputed Hamptons-based developer to construct and market turnkey residential properties within the exclusive seaside enclave

Against a backdrop of slowing economic growth, rising interest rates and weak consumer sentiment, it comes as no surprise that the U.S. housing market was largely on hold in 2023. Residential transactions were forecast to have fallen by 37 percent in 2023, with commercial real estate suffering an even steeper decline in transaction volumes (https://ibn.fm/22gvk). Nonetheless and against that rather lackluster backdrop, one geography did stand out. Despite seeing a decline in year over year transaction volumes, median home sales prices across The Hamptons displayed remarkable resilience, rising by just under 2 percent in 2023 (https://ibn.fm/FsUzK). The Hamptons has long been renowned for its high-end real estate market; notably, it was this very segment of the market which showed the most resilience over the past year. Despite seeing a 26 percent decline in year over year sales of individual properties, homes priced between $1 million and $3.5 million – which have historically accounted for the lion share of Hamptons' property transactions, only witnessed a 21 percent decline. It is this very resilience which Mountain Top Properties (OTC: MTPP), a diversified real estate holding company focused around building, acquiring, marketing and operating assets through its wholly owned affiliates, is looking to tap into. Through its Mountain Top Capital Fund I, Mountain Top Realty has sought to raise $75 million to acquire, renovate and remarket homes in the Hamptons; in recent weeks, the company has revealed plans to conduct a Regulation A offering, which will seek to raise up to $10 million in gross proceeds, destined to be deployed in support of the company's real estate development plans. This will come on top of the fund's existing debt capital foray, which has seen the fund receive commitments amounting to 70 percent of their anticipated real estate acquisition costs as well as a further 100 percent of the planned construction costs, a figure which the company will seek to complement with their upcoming equity raising exercise.

Mountain Top Properties Inc. (OTC: MTPP) is a diversified real estate holding company that acquires, sells and operates assets through its wholly owned subsidiaries and limited partnerships. The company specializes in property management, property technology (“PropTech”) and real estate redevelopment.

Mountain Top Properties was incorporated in 1990 and is based in Liverpool, New York, with offices in Sag Harbor, New York.

Organization

The company’s flagship subsidiary is Mountain Top Realty Inc., the managing partner of its first real estate fund focused on residential redevelopment in the prestigious and storied Hamptons, New York, beachfront communities.

Mountain Top Properties is also the lead investor in blockchain-enabled industrial and warehouse flex space HQXpress, which services the warehousing, reverse logistics and liquidation markets.

The company is in negotiations for the addition of AI-powered technologies that promise to simplify real estate services, including purchasing and sales.

Mountain Top Capital Fund I LLC

Mountain Top Capital Fund I LLC is a New York limited liability company recently organized by affiliates of Mountain Top Realty, manager of the fund. Through this fund, Mountain Top Realty will leverage the company’s experience, market conditions and industry relationships to capitalize on real estate projects as they arise.

This partnership will be focused on waterfront or water view properties in the Hamptons. The Hamptons market has historically remained strong and continues to set new highs year over year.

The fund has partnered with On Site Builder Construction Co. Inc., which is managed by Joseph Kelley, who, for over 40 years, has continued to build the highest quality architecturally designed custom houses, varying in style from classic to ultra-modern, in the Hamptons. Several houses he has built are showcased in books and magazines and featured across various forms of digital and social media. His assembled team of skilled subcontractors are among the finest skilled craftsmen in their various fields of expertise.

Mr. Kelley has built over 60 custom homes in this market and has the unique distinction of building the most expensive house sold in Sag Harbor in 2014, which sold for $31,750,000; the most expensive house in the Hamptons in 2019, which first sold for $27,500,000 in 2017 and later was renovated and re-traded for $39,250,000; and the most expensive house sold in the Hamptons in 2022, which sold with the neighboring house for $118,500,000. Mr. Kelley’s portfolio of projects is valued at over $400,000,000. Although he has historically worked as a custom home builder, he would like to shift from providing a service to now providing a finished product in this market.

Market Opportunity

Mountain Top Capital Fund I has a target to raise $75 million to acquire, renovate and remarket Hamptons waterfront or water view properties. The fund has secured debt capital commitments for 70% of the acquisition costs and 100% of the construction costs and will use $10 million to leverage strategic waterfront opportunities in and around the Hamptons.

Profits from each project will be distributed upon the sale of the project, which is anticipated every 15 to 18 months, with a target of a minimum return on investment of 20% to 30% per transaction.

The company anticipates the fund’s Hamptons projects will be followed up by several other funds targeting additional high-end markets.

GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ) is a mine-to-market enterprise specializing in gold, gemstone, and jewelry production. With ownership of mining resources, production facilities, and operational assets, the company maintains control over every aspect of its production process, from gold mining and gemstone extraction to jewelry manufacturing and global distribution.

As a prominent player in the industry, GEMXX stands out as a leading producer of high-quality finished Ammolite jewelry. Notably, it holds the distinction of being the sole public company engaged in Ammolite mining worldwide. In addition to its Ammolite operations, the company is actively involved in gold mining and prides itself on its ability to design and manufacture exquisite jewelry pieces and exceptionally rare, natural fossil decor items for clientele around the globe.

One of GEMXX’s key advantages lies in mining its own gold reserves to be utilized in its jewelry production. This strategic approach provides the company with a cost-saving edge over other producers in the market.

Ammolite is similar to black opal and is a biogenic gem like amber and pearl. It is derived from the fossilized shells of ammonites, a group of extinct marine nautiluses.

GEMXX’s world class gemstone cutters and jewelry designers are continuously leading the Ammolite industry. Its team believes in the company’s philosophy, vision and goals, and works every day to continue to drive the Ammolite industry to the forefront of the gem world.

The company has offices in Las Vegas and Hong Kong.

Projects and Operations

GEMXX has formulated an ambitious growth plan that, while challenging, is deemed attainable. The company’s strategy revolves around bolstering its market share through several key initiatives. Firstly, GEMXX aims to strengthen its position in current markets by nurturing and expanding existing relationships with customers and partners.

Secondly, the company plans to venture into untapped markets strategically. By identifying and targeting new areas, GEMXX seeks to establish a presence in regions that present promising opportunities for growth.

Additionally, GEMXX envisions growth through acquisitions. By considering and integrating key services, distribution networks and retail outlets into its fold, the company aims to consolidate its market position and capitalize on synergies for enhanced success.

To cater to the rising demand for its products, GEMXX has placed a primary focus on increasing gemstone production. The company’s southern properties, situated in Alberta, Canada, hold valuable deposits of rough Ammolite gemstone. By tapping into these resources, GEMXX is poised to meet the demand for its exquisite gemstone products and further fuel its expansion plans.

 

GEMXX possesses significant mineral assets in the form of a Mineral Work Permit covering an 800-acre area and two Ammonite Shell Mineral agreements encompassing 217 acres within the same region. The company’s management effectively operated mines in close proximity to these properties. Moreover, core sampling, along with fossil outcroppings on the riverbanks, confirms a substantial Ammolite resource present in these designated areas.

Both the Mineral Work Permit and the Ammonite Shell Mineral agreements grant GEMXX unrestricted access to all Ammolite resources within their respective demarcations. Notably, the company is not obligated to pay any royalties to third parties, thereby enabling GEMXX to fully capitalize on the potential of these valuable resources.

Furthermore, there are no stringent regulatory conditions that GEMXX must fulfill to gain or retain access to the Ammolite deposits. This freedom of access allows the company to proceed with its mining and production operations unimpeded, providing an advantageous position for future growth and success.

In March 2023, GEMXX made a significant announcement, revealing its acquisition of a 50% ownership stake in Crazy Horse Mining Inc., a Canadian gold mining company with assets situated in the province of British Columbia. As part of this deal, Crazy Horse’s assets, which encompass a 100% interest in two gold projects, called Snow Creek and Rosella Creek, spread across a substantial area exceeding 700 acres, now become part of GEMXX’s portfolio.

Under the terms of this strategic partnership, GEMXX and Crazy Horse will jointly share the expenses related to mining operations on these projects. Additionally, the two companies will share the gold produced from these ventures, leading to a collaborative and mutually beneficial arrangement.

Initial tests conducted on the property, combined with gold already recovered this season, confirm all expectations for the claims and substantiate the company’s estimated extraction target of over 100,000 ounces of easily recoverable gold. To validate and provide a more comprehensive assessment of this estimate, an S-K 1300-compliant Resource Report is scheduled to be conducted during the summer of 2023.

By acquiring this stake in Crazy Horse Mining Inc., GEMXX has positioned itself for further growth in the gold mining sector and is poised to capitalize on cost of goods savings in its jewelry business.

Astrotech Corp. (NASDAQ: ASTC)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Astrotech Corp. (NASDAQ: ASTC).

Florida may soon ban delta-8 products such as vapes, edible gummies and joints. This comes after senators approved a measure that would prevent naturally occurring or synthetic delta-8 and delta-10 from being sold legally as hemp products. Delta-8 and delta-10 can produce a psychoactive high when consumed. Delta-8 is a naturally occurring tetrahydrocannabinol ("THC") compound; THC is one of the two main psychoactive compounds found in the marijuana plant, the other being cannabidiol ("CBD"). Additionally, some consumers have given testimonies attesting to hemp products helping them manage their physical pain and avoiding the use of drugs such as opioids. One patient revealed that hemp helped her manage her epilepsy and told legislators that the banning of hemp products would prompt users to shift to the medical cannabis market. Some of the issues various jurisdictions are facing in distinguishing between legal and illicit hemp products could be addressed by acquiring mass spectrometry testing equipment from several manufacturers, including Astrotech Corp. (NASDAQ: ASTC), to help in confirming that the products on the market adhere to the existing regulations.

Astrotech Corp. (NASDAQ: ASTC) is an instrumentation company that designs, manufactures and commercializes solutions. Its solutions include mass spectrometry, process controls, chemical detectors and medical disease detection.

The company was established in 1984 and, prior to 2009, was known as SPACEHAB Inc., a NASA contractor offering technology originally developed for NASA to monitor air quality on the International Space Station. When the Space Shuttle program ended, the company focused on its satellite processing and mass spectrometer instrumentation units and adopted the Astrotech name.

In 2014, Astrotech sold its satellite subsidiary to focus on its Astrotech Technology Inc. (ATi) mass spectrometry solutions, which offer a number of advantages over competing platforms. Notably, Astrotech’s ATi technology is ruggedized, rapid, simple to use and customizable, with hands-free calibration and tuning.

Between 2016 and 2019, the company secured U.S. patents for its technology and achieved European Union (ECAC) certification for the TRACER 1000™, the world’s first mass-spec Explosives Trace Detector (ETD) used in airports worldwide. Astrotech continues to innovate and add to its suite of products, including AgLAB-1000, a process control system, and the BreathTest 1000, a disease detection solution.

Astrotech is headquartered in Austin, Texas.

Subsidiaries

Astrotech Technologies Inc.

Astrotech Technologies Inc. (ATi) owns and licenses the platform mass spectrometry technology originally developed by 1st Detect. This technology is designed to be less expensive, smaller and easier to use than traditional mass spectrometers.

Unlike other technologies, ATi works under high vacuum, which eliminates competing molecules, yielding higher resolution and fewer false alarms. The company’s intellectual property includes 18 granted patents, along with extensive trade secrets.

ATi exclusively licenses the Astrotech Mass Spectrometer Technology to the three wholly owned subsidiaries of Astrotech.

1st Detect Corp.

1st Detect Corp. developed the TRACER 1000, the world’s first mass spectrometry-based explosives and narcotics trace detector. 1st Detect ETDs were developed for use at airports, cargo facilities and other secured locations and borders worldwide.

1st Detect’s commercial sales of the TRACER 1000 ETD, consumables and recurring maintenance services brought in $750,000 in total revenue during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The Astrotech subsidiary recently secured two orders for a total of 24 Tracer 1000 units from two Romanian security and telecommunications companies, to be delivered during calendar 2023.

AgLAB Inc.

AgLAB Inc. is developing a series of mass spectrometers for use in the hemp and cannabis market, with an initial focus on optimizing yields in the distillation processes.

AgLAB, which uses the company’s proprietary AgLAB 1000-D2™ mass spectrometer, has been proven to improve distillation oil yields and bottom-line profits for hemp and cannabis producers. During field trials, AgLAB was able to improve ending-weight yields by an average of 24%.

BreathTech Corp.

BreathTech is developing the BreathTest-1000™, a breath analysis tool to screen for volatile organic compound (“VOC”) metabolites found in a person’s breath that could indicate they may have a compromised condition including but not limited to a bacterial or viral infection. The company believes that new tools to aid in the battle against COVID-19 and other diseases remain of the utmost importance to help more quickly identify that an infection may be present.

Market Opportunity

A report by Mordor Intelligence, a research and advisory firm, put the global mass spectrometry market at $6.37 billion in 2023. The market is forecast to grow to $8.63 billion by 2028, achieving a CAGR of 6.25% during the forecast period.

One of the major driving factors for the growth of the mass spectrometry market is technological advancements in mass spectrometer devices, the report states. Key market players are continuously working toward advancing their existing products and launching innovative and advanced mass spectrometer devices.

Another major factor that is expected to boost market growth is increasing research and development expenditure by both government and private entities, according to the report. Mass spectrometry devices are also being used in the detection and analysis of COVID-19 and other disease samples, which may have a positive impact on the market.

Management Team

The Astrotech leadership team includes management executives, as well as industry and technology experts. The company continues to actively expand its talent pool to meet evolving demands.

Other highlights from the report show revenue during 2023 increased 17%, reaching $1.2 million compared to $1 million in 2022; gross profit during 2023 was also up, totaling $539,000 compared to $464,000 in 2022, with gross profit margin at 45.2% in 2023 compared to 45.5% in 2022; net loss decreased in 2023, coming in at $7.7 million compared to $9.7 million for 2022; and Adjusted EBITDA loss, which is a non-GAAP measure of operating performance, was $6.9 million for 2023, compared to $8.5 million in 2022, an improvement of $1.5 million.

"During 2023, we executed on a number of key initiatives that will be the foundation to drive growth into the future, most notably was the development of Evolve, our all-new soft bait product that was launched on a limited basis at the end of 2023," said SenesTech president and CEO Joel Fruendt in the press release. "Since the full launch of Evolve in January 2024, we have seen a significant uptick in interest and orders from a wide range of sales channels and geographies. For instance, we were recently approved as a vendor for a major nationwide hardware retailer; we have signed distribution and stocking agreements for grain-management and open-field agricultural applications; and we have expanded our geographical reach outside the United States, including Hong Kong, Macau, the United Arab Emirates, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and the Netherlands. It is increasingly clear that Evolve is a game changing product that will be a key driver to our revenue growth in 2024."

SenesTech Inc. (NASDAQ: SNES) is the rodent fertility control expert and the inventor of the only EPA-registered contraceptive for male and female rats. The company’s technology provides an innovative and humane method for managing rat populations.

SenesTech is focused on developing effective solutions that are grounded in science and proven through research, all while providing value to people, communities and the environment. The company’s passion is to create a healthier world by better controlling rat pest populations. This aim is critical, as, if left unchecked, a breeding pair of rats and their descendants can produce up to 15,000 pups after just one year.

The company strives for clean cities, efficient businesses and happy households – with a product that was scientifically designed to be effective without killing rats. SenesTech is committed to the sustainable, humane treatment of animals, improving the quality of all human life and enhancing environmental stewardship through the global application of its effective solution in fertility control technology.

SenesTech is headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona.

ContraPest®

SenesTech’s first product, ContraPest®, applies revolutionary technology to a global challenge that has persisted since the Middle Ages – the proliferation of rats in urban and agricultural settings. ContraPest® targets the reproductive capabilities of Norway and roof rats. As a highly palatable liquid, the formulation promotes sustained consumption, helping to reduce fertility in both male and female rats, bringing populations down and keeping them down.

The company’s flagship offering can be used as part of integrated pest management (IPM) programs – fitting seamlessly into all IPM programs – to help reduce reproduction and magnify the success of these protocols, or as a standalone solution for customers who want to reduce or eliminate the use of lethal rodent control methods.

In multiple, independent field deployments, ContraPest was shown to reduce rat activity over 90% when added to an existing IPM program.

ContraPest® is registered federally as a General Use Product.

Delivery Systems and New Products

In July 2023, SenesTech began to distribute a new delivery system for ContraPest®, the Isolate Bait System™. This new delivery system brings to market a simple design that enables more efficient deployment, incorporates an enhanced formulation of ContraPest® that is expected to provide improved performance of the fertility control bait in the field and is paired with a new bait station that is more space-efficient and economical.

The other delivery systems available for ContraPest include the Ultimate Bait System™, a tank and tray in a larger format for use with more severe infestations, and the Elevate Bait System™, a unique delivery system that targets above ground infestations, as with roof rats.

SenesTech, as of August 2023, is also in the final stages of releasing a soft bait formulation, which provides the unique attributes of proven fertility control in an industry-familiar format demanded by big box retailers, key e-commerce channels and leading industry pest management professionals.

Market Opportunity

According to SenesTech’s figures, rats cause over $27 billion in damage to public and private infrastructure annually in the United States. Rats also destroy 20% of the global stored food supply every year by consuming or contaminating it.

Rats are known to spread at least 35 diseases, globally posing a dangerous risk to public health and safety. Not only does this age-old problem persist despite extensive campaigns to eradicate it, but multiple sources have reported that post-COVID rat populations have boomed.

Poison-based control methods sicken rats, and they typically die slowly. An animal that eats a poisoned rat may also sicken or die. The global rodenticide market is projected to be worth $1.7 billion by 2026.

In one case study, results reported by the customer showed a $5,000 investment in ContraPest® saved more than $500,000 annually in reduced labor, loss and damage.

Management Team

Joel Fruendt is SenesTech’s President and CEO. He has 15 years of executive leadership in the vector and pest control industries as Vice President and General Manager of Clarke Environmental Inc., a leading vector and pest control products and services company. He has extensive expertise in the development and manufacturing of EPA-registered chemical control products, and the commercialization and sale of those products. He received the ‘Smart Leaders’ award from Smart Business Magazine and holds a bachelor’s degree in business from Illinois Wesleyan University.

Longeveron Inc. (NASDAQ: LGVN) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing regenerative medicines to address unmet medical needs for specific aging-related and life-threatening conditions. The Company’s research and therapies are aimed at improving the outcome of infants born with a life-threatening heart condition, as well as improving the healthspan for the aging population – the number of years a person is expected to live in relatively good health, free of chronic disease and disabilities of aging, with function and ability to perform activities of daily living.

Longeveron is involved in clinical trials in the following indications: Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), Alzheimer’s disease, and Aging-related Frailty.

The Company’s philosophy revolves around the idea that regenerative medicine may hold the potential to improve certain rare medical conditions and contribute to healthy aging. While there has been a remarkable rise in life expectancy over the last century due to medical and public health advancements, this increase in longevity has not been paralleled by the number of years a person is expected to live in relatively good health, free of chronic disease and disabilities of aging.

Longeveron’s lead investigational product is Lomecel-B™, an allogeneic Medicinal Signaling Cell therapy product isolated from the bone marrow of young, healthy adult donors. As humans age, they experience a decrease in immune system function, a decline in blood vessel functioning, chronic inflammation, and other issues. Clinical data has suggested that Lomecel-B™ may address these conditions through multiple mechanisms of action (MOA) that simultaneously target key aging-related processes.

The Company is headquartered in Miami, Florida.

Lomecel-B™

Lomecel-B™ is being evaluated in multiple clinical trials for aging-related chronic diseases and other life-threatening conditions under U.S. FDA-approved Investigational New Drug applications. Lomecel-B™ has multiple potential mechanisms of action encompassing pro-vascular, pro-regenerative, anti-inflammatory, and tissue repair and healing effects with broad potential applications across a spectrum of disease areas.

The drug is made from special living cells called Medicinal Signaling Cells (MSCs) that are isolated from fresh bone marrow tissue that has been donated by adult donors aged 18 to 45. Once the MSCs have been isolated from the fresh bone marrow through a careful selection process, the cells are culture-expanded (allowed to replicate under controlled laboratory conditions) into the billions using specialized techniques and processes. After a specific number of expansion cycles, called “passages,” the cells are harvested, separated into specific doses (e.g., 50 million cells), and cryopreserved until future use.

These cells have been shown to have characteristics that allow them to be transplanted from a donor to host without triggering a harmful immune response in the recipient, and they can be administered on an outpatient basis in as little as 40 minutes after thawing. Because of these characteristics, Lomecel-B™ is considered an “off-the-shelf” product.

In some trials, such as for Alzheimer’s disease and Aging-related Frailty, Lomecel-B™ is administered via peripheral intravenous infusion, while, in the Company’s HLHS trial, Lomecel-B™ is administered via direct injection into the heart tissue.

Market Opportunity

Longeveron estimates the potential market size for Lomecel-B™ in the treatment of HLHS to be up to $1 billion annually, globally.

U.S. patients suffering from Aging-related Frailty are estimated using U.S. Census Bureau statistics to be approximately 8.1 million. That population potentially represents a market for Lomecel-B™ of between $4 billion and $8 billion globally per year, according to Company estimates.

Additionally, the Alzheimer’s Association puts the number of Americans with that disease at 5.1 million, highlighting another potentially addressable market for Lomecel-B™, that’s worth $5 billion to $10 billion annually.
