D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS).

A new tool by Google is raising serious concerns about the future of truth online. In May 2025, Google's AI research team, DeepMind, released Veo 3, a powerful video generator that creates short, realistic videos from simple text prompts. While the technology is impressive, experts say it makes spreading false information much easier, and that's a big problem. Since Veo 3 was launched, there's been a sharp rise in fake videos online. In Iran and Israel, for example, people have seen clips of missile strikes that never happened. These videos were made using AI and shared widely, causing fear and confusion. During protests in Los Angeles, similar fake footage also went viral, adding to the chaos. As more companies release AI video tools, experts warn the damage from fake content is hard to undo. Once misinformation spreads, it becomes nearly impossible to stop. With tools like Veo 3 now available to the public, the line between fact and fiction is getting harder to see, and the world may not be ready. The concerns about the potential for the misuse of AI tools, or any other advanced technology for that matter, draws attention to the need for innovators, such as D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS), in all tech fields to consider safety controls/guardrails so that the utility of their innovations isn't marred by controversy surrounding its potential to be misused.

Target Verticals

While the potential applications for quantum computing are effectively limitless, D-Wave has identified a number of industry verticals as key areas of focus for its quantum architecture, providing case studies for each. These include:

• Manufacturing – D-Wave worked with Volkswagen to identify a commercial optimization application, the binary paint shop problem, which was run on D-Wave’s hybrid solver service. The solver outperformed four purely classical methods on problem sizes at commercial scale (N=3,000). In a separate project, similar inputs were tested using a leading ion trap system, which failed to find any commercial solution.
• Life Sciences – Menten AI makes use of D-Wave quantum computing to assist in the design of novel therapeutic peptides—short strings of amino acids that can act as potent drugs. With the rise of COVID-19, D-Wave’s Advantage system made it possible to identify molecules that might be especially well-suited for binding and inhibiting the related spike protein, producing several promising peptide designs.
• Finance – Multiverse Computing, a leader in developing quantum solutions for the financial sector, leveraged D-Wave’s hybrid solver service in a collaboration with BBVA, one of the world’s largest financial institutions. Multiverse demonstrated management strategies that far exceeded the granularity of traditional returns in a fraction of the time, helping BBVA identify a low-risk portfolio for investment.

Market Opportunity

The quantum computing total addressable market is projected to grow between $450 billion and $850 billion over the next 15 to 30 years, with between $5 billion and $10 billion of anticipated TAM growth coming in the next three to five years, according to Boston Consulting Group. Driving factors behind this growth include rising investments in quantum computing tech by governments and an increasing number of commercial use-cases.

Forward-thinking organizations see quantum as an opportunity to move ahead of the competition. From finding efficiencies and reducing waste to decreasing time to solution and solving problems abandoned due to complexity, the business value is real. According to data from 451 Research, 40% of large enterprises are already experimenting with quantum computing.

D-Wave is strategically positioned – in an industry with significant barriers to entry – as evident by a decades-long track record serving a roster of blue-chip customers. The company is singularly focused on helping its customers achieve clear value by leveraging quantum computing in practical business applications. With a full stack of systems, software, developer tools and services, D-Wave is working to enable enterprises, governments, developers and researchers to access the power of quantum computing, thereby providing an intriguing opportunity for prospective investors.

D-Wave’s current investor base includes PSP Investments, Goldman Sachs, BDC Capital, NEC Corporation, Aegis Group Partners and In-Q-Tel.

Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRB)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRB).

Nutriband (NASDAQ: NTRB) announced that its Board of Directors has approved a 25% preferred stock dividend, granting one preferred share for every four common shares held as of July 25, 2025, with distribution set for August 5. Each preferred share will convert to one common share upon FDA approval of the Company's AVERSA Fentanyl product. If not converted, preferred shares will be eligible for annual cash dividends from company profits at the Board's discretion. CEO Gareth Sheridan said the move reflects the Company's commitment to shareholder value as it advances toward AVERSA commercialization.

To view the full report, visit https://ibn.fm/4dkCf

Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRB) is engaged in the development of a portfolio of transdermal pharmaceutical products. The company’s AVERSA™ technology can be incorporated into any transdermal patch and includes aversive agents to prevent abuse, diversion, misuse and accidental exposure to drugs with abuse potential, specifically opioids.

AVERSA technology has the potential to improve the safety profile of transdermal drugs susceptible to abuse, such as fentanyl, while making sure that these drugs remain accessible to patients who need them. The technology is covered by a broad intellectual property portfolio with patents granted in the United States, Europe, Japan, Korea, Russia, Canada, Mexico, Australia, and China, with recent extensions into Macao.

The company’s business model is to apply its transdermal technology to existing FDA-approved drugs with a goal of improving safety, efficacy and patient comfort while qualifying for a limited-development regulatory pathway that reduces the number of clinical trials required for approval of new drugs.

Nutriband has three subsidiaries, including 4P Therapeutics, its clinical and regulatory subsidiary; Pocono Pharmaceutical, a contract manufacturer for a wide range of clients; and Active Intelligence, a developer of sports recovery products. This ownership of manufacturing and clinical development capabilities drastically reduces costs for AVERSA and other technologies.

In April 2024, Nutriband announced that the company had been engaged by and received a first order from Fit For Life Group, a major brand license holder. A fully executed supplier agreement is expected to follow. Nutriband’s wholly owned Active Intelligence subsidiary will act as manufacturer.

In February 2025, the company formalized its product development partnership with Kindeva Drug Delivery through a long-term exclusive agreement. The collaboration supports the commercial pathway for AVERSA Fentanyl by leveraging Kindeva’s FDA-approved transdermal fentanyl patch system.

The company is headquartered in Orlando, Florida.

Products

Nutriband’s lead product candidate is AVERSA Fentanyl, an abuse-deterrent fentanyl transdermal patch. The company announced in March 2024 that it will submit a New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration seeking approval to market AVERSA Fentanyl. In subsequent updates, Nutriband confirmed that the NDA submission remains the company’s primary focus and is backed by a strong cash position.

Nutriband has partnered with Kindeva Drug Delivery, a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization, to incorporate Nutriband’s AVERSA abuse-deterrent transdermal technology into Kindeva’s FDA-approved transdermal fentanyl patch system. Because Nutriband’s abuse-deterrent technology is incorporated into the fentanyl patch but is physically separate from and does not come in contact with the drug layer, the clinical trials typically needed to demonstrate safety and efficacy for a new drug formulation would not be required.

In support of this commercialization strategy, Nutriband closed an $8.4 million private placement in April 2024 to fund development activities related to AVERSA Fentanyl. The company also licensed Bitrex®, a widely used aversive agent, to enhance the deterrent profile of its patch formulation.

AVERSA Fentanyl has the potential to be the first and only abuse deterrent patch approved anywhere in the world. The company plans to seek an expedited review by the FDA, as has been granted for certain abuse-deterrent oral opioid products, which shortens the regulatory review period to six months from the conventional 10-month FDA review cycle for NDAs.

Nutriband’s AVERSA product development pipeline also includes abuse deterrent versions of currently approved and marketed transdermal patches containing buprenorphine, an opioid used to treat opioid use disorder, and methylphenidate, a central nervous system stimulant used in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Both are labeled with FDA-required warnings for the risk of abuse and misuse, as well as warnings against accidental exposure.

Market Opportunity

Nutriband cites a market analysis report from Boston-based Health Advances, a healthcare and life sciences consulting firm. According to the report, upon FDA approval, AVERSA Fentanyl has the potential to reach peak annual sales of $200 million in the U.S.

The company further states that, should non-abuse-deterrent transdermal fentanyl products lose FDA marketing approval, AVERSA Fentanyl would have greater pricing flexibility and would have the potential to generate more than $500 million in annual revenue.

Brera Holdings PLC (NASDAQ: BREA) is an Ireland-based, international holding company focused on expanding its global portfolio of men’s and women’s sports clubs through a multi-club ownership approach. The company capitalizes on opportunities to earn tournament prizes, secure sponsorships, collect transfer fees, provide professional sports consulting services, and enhance the valuation of its clubs.

Brera Holdings builds on the legacy of Brera FC, an international football club (referred to as soccer in the U.S.), that it acquired in July 2022. Established in 2000 and based in Milan, Italy, Brera FC has distinguished itself by cultivating an alternative football legacy. In October 2024, the Internet Marketing Association awarded Brera FC with the Social Impact Through Soccer accolade at its IMPACT 5050 Conference, recognizing the club’s global perspective and positive contributions to society.

The company’s growth strategy focuses on unlocking value from undervalued sports clubs and talent, driving innovation, and generating socially impactful outcomes. Brera Holdings is actively expanding its Global Sports Group, acquiring professional football and other sports clubs in emerging markets such as Africa, Asia, and Europe.

By targeting top-division teams in less mainstream markets, Brera Holdings aims to strengthen its competitive position in regional tournaments, including those organized by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA). These acquisitions are expected to enhance sponsorship revenues and create new growth opportunities.

Leveraging its expertise in capital raising and revenue generation, Brera Holdings also anticipates growing demand for its consulting services, providing advisory support to sports clubs, associations, investors, and others. Brera Holdings is headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, with additional offices in Milan, Italy.

Sporting Assets

Brera Holdings continues to grow its global sports portfolio with a series of strategic acquisitions and innovations, including the FENIX Trophy Tournament, a pan-European, non-professional football competition. Launched in September 2021 and organized by Brera FC, the tournament has been recognized by UEFA and described by BBC Sport as “the Champions League for amateurs.” In 2023, Brera FC hosted the tournament’s finals at Milan’s iconic San Siro Stadium.

In March 2023, Brera Holdings expanded into Africa by establishing Brera Tchumene FC in Mozambique. Starting in the country’s Second Division League, the team quickly earned promotion to Moçambola, Mozambique’s First Division League, by November 2023.

In April 2023, Brera Holdings further strengthened its European presence by acquiring a 90% stake in Fudbalski Klub Akademija Pandev, a first-division football team in North Macedonia. This acquisition provides access to two major UEFA competitions, solidifying the company’s position in European football.

Brera Holdings’ reach extends beyond football. In July 2023, it acquired majority ownership of UYBA Volley, an Italian Serie A1 women’s professional volleyball team, demonstrating its commitment to diversifying within top-tier sports.

In September 2023, Brera Holdings entered the Mongolian football market by acquiring Bayanzurkh Sporting Ilch FC, a Mongolian National Premier League team. For the 2024 season, the club was rebranded as Brera Ilch FC, further expanding Brera’s global footprint.

In January 2024, Brera Holdings initiated a proactive search for an Italian Serie B football club, aligning with its goal of bringing multi-club ownership opportunities to mass investors through its Nasdaq-listed shares.

In February 2024, the Brera Holdings Advisory Board was established with MLS founder and World Cup director Alan Rothenberg, luxury lifestyle executive Massimo Ferragamo, sports business leaders Paul Tosetti and Marshall Geller, and Italian football icon Giuseppe Rossi.

In June 2024, the North Macedonian women’s football club Tiverija Strumica officially became part of the Brera family with the establishment of a joint-stock company controlled by Brera Holdings called Women’s Football Club Tiverija Brera AD Strumica (“Brera Tiverija”). Brera Tiverija is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brera Strumica FC.

In September 2024 Brera announced that it signed an exclusive letter of intent to acquire an Italian Serie B club (the “LOI” and the “Club”). According to a CFA report published in June 2024, this expected strategic transaction, for an estimated purchase price of $21.6 million, would add first-year annual revenue of $10.8 million to Brera, and that revenue would likely increase by 25% each year for the next three years. The company’s capital valuation, projected the report, would also experience significant appreciation during this period.

In October 2024, Brera was recognized with the 2024 Social Impact Through Soccer Award at IMPACT 5050, an annual event honoring leaders and innovators who significantly impact their industries and communities. This is the second time Brera has won the award.

Market Opportunity

A report from IMARC Group, a global management consulting firm, reveals that the international football market generated approximately $3.3 billion in revenue in 2023, with projections to grow to $4.6 billion by 2032, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.6%. Key drivers behind this growth include advancements in digitization, increasing sponsorship and partnership deals between brands and clubs, the rising interest in women’s professional soccer leagues, and the expansion of the e-sports and gaming sector.

In particular, Serie B Italian football clubs seem to present exceptionally attractive investment opportunities. As of September 2024, more than half of these clubs had appreciated between 80-100% in total market value, post-purchase.

As the world’s most-watched and most-played sport, soccer drives significant demand for football-related products and services, contributing to market growth. Broadcasting rights, sponsorships, and endorsement deals are also major revenue sources for clubs and organizations, with an expanding global fanbase generating new opportunities for financial growth, according to the report.

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF).

ESGold CEO and Director Paul Mastantuono recently appeared on the Exploring Mining Podcast to discuss the company's reuse and discovery plans for the historic Montauban gold and silver mine site in Canada, west of Quebec City

ESGold is sidestepping the traditional junior miner model of obtaining investor financing for mine development, focusing instead on building revenues through tailings cleanup and repurposing that can then be reinvested in mining operations

The gold and silver resource developer is focused on an environmental and social governance mission that would minimize pollutants while repurposing waste minerals for useful construction products

The company's operation in Quebec is fully permitted and expects to begin production this year

Production is expected to begin by year end on a tailings cleanup operation by precious metal resource developer ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) . The process will provide for the economically and environmentally friendly reuse of mineral resources at the Montauban mine in Quebec where new gold and silver discovery is expected, company CEO and Director Paul Mastantuono told the Exploring Mining Podcast recently.

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) has named Gordon Robb as Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately, as the Company advances toward gold and silver production at its Montauban Project in Quebec. Robb brings over a decade of experience in global capital markets and mining finance, most recently with Scottie Resources. Paul Mastantuono will continue as Chairman while assuming the role of COO. ESGold is finalizing construction, concentrate testing, and an updated PEA at Montauban, alongside its Ambient Noise Tomography survey. The new leadership structure supports ESGold's dual focus on near-term cash flow and long-term exploration.

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production. With established infrastructure in place and a significant gold-silver resource, the company is uniquely positioned to generate near-term cash flow while unlocking the full potential of its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec—one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world.

ESGold is building a foundation for long-term growth through a dual-track strategy: cash-flow generation from tailings reprocessing to fund district-scale exploration.

The Montauban site, which operated as a mine for over 80 years, is now undergoing its first-ever systematic exploration program to determine just how large the remaining deposit may be. Near-term cash flow from tailings reprocessing will be used to fund exploration, with the goal of increasing the resource base and uncovering new discoveries across the expansive land package.

ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that turns legacy mine sites into revenue generating assets while setting a new industry benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The recent completion of a C$3.4M financing has enabled ESGold to initiate the final construction phase of its mill circuit—moving the company decisively toward production of gold and silver in Q3 2025.

Montauban Gold-Silver Project: Production Imminent

Located approximately 80 kilometers west of Quebec City, the Montauban Project is a past-producing gold-silver mine with surface and underground mineralization and over 900,000 tonnes of historical tailings. ESGold has invested over C$15 million to date, building out roads, power access, and a 16,000 sq. ft. processing facility. The company recently completed a C$3.4M financing to begin final construction of the mill circuit.

The company is fully permitted to enter into production that is expected to commence in Q3 2025 with a capacity of 500 tonnes per day, scaling to 1,000 tpd. An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is currently underway to reflect all-time high gold prices and the anticipated upside from the near-surface resource.

Parallels Between Broken Hill & Montauban

Broken Hill, discovered in 1883 in Australia, became the world’s largest source of silver, lead, and zinc—producing over $100 billion worth of metals. What made it unique was that the richest mineral zones were hidden deep underground in a twisted, boomerang-like shape, and it took decades to fully understand just how large the deposit really was.

Geologists now believe ESGold’s Montauban Project in Quebec may share similar traits. Like Broken Hill, it contains high-grade silver, lead, and zinc, along with gold—and sits within the same type of geological system known to host large, high-value mineral deposits. The rock formations, mineral assemblages, and structural complexity all suggest that Montauban could be hiding much more than what’s been historically uncovered. Academic studies now support this possible geological parallel, pointing to further evidence suggesting Montauban was formed under similar conditions as Broken Hill.

Exploration Upside

With production on the horizon, ESGold is advancing a major exploration campaign. Montauban has never undergone systematic modern exploration.

The company is currently completing a large-scale Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey—a powerful 3D imaging technology that will define the size, shape, and continuity of the mineralized system. ANT is already showing strong results, with imaging going beyond the original 400m depth target and now expected to exceed 800m. This cutting-edge technology has the potential to reveal the full extent of the anomaly for the first time in Montauban’s 110-year history.

Scalable, Replicable, Clean Mining

Montauban is also part of a broader vision. Across Canada and globally, there are hundreds of orphaned or legacy mine sites that remain unrehabilitated despite containing valuable residual metals in tailings. Quebec alone is home to more than 259 of these sites, highlighting the scale of the opportunity. ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that transforms legacy sites into productive assets while setting a new benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The company has also performed testing that utilizes Dundee Sustainable Technologies’ CLEVR Process™, a proprietary non-cyanide extraction method that achieved 90.9% gold recovery in lab testing. This clean processing approach remains a valuable and scalable asset supporting ESGold’s near-term production and exploration growth strategy.

As a complement to its core mining operations, ESGold is developing clean technology solutions through a joint venture with DMCMS Inc. This initiative includes a polymer division that manufactures environmentally friendly products such as road stabilizers, dust suppressants, and other industrial blends—expanding the company’s sustainable commercial footprint.

Market Opportunity

ESGold is operating in a unique and specialized segment of the mining industry—reprocessing and revitalizing legacy mine sites. The Montauban Project offers both near-term cash flow and long-term growth potential by converting tailings into revenue while systematically exploring for additional high-value mineral endowments. The company’s established infrastructure, full permitting, and reclamation approvals reduce development risk and enhance execution timelines.

The broader green mining market is projected to reach $15.92 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research. This growth is being driven by increased demand for responsible extraction methods, ESG-aligned practices, and critical mineral security. With construction underway at its fully permitted Montauban site—and exploration advancing along a Broken Hill-type geological model—ESGold is well positioned to emerge as Canada’s next premier gold and silver producer.

SolarBank Corp. (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) (NASDAQ: SUUN)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight SolarBank Corp. (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) (NASDAQ: SUUN).

Recently published analysis of China's new energy capacity installation data has revealed that the East Asian nation broke wind and solar installation records in May. According to analysis by Asia Society Policy Institute fellow Lauri Myllyvirta, China installed a record 198 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity and 46 GW of wind capacity in May 2025, enough to match Turkey's or India's power generation. The data highlights China's commitment to moving away from fossil fuels toward renewable alternatives and reducing its environmental impact. As the second-largest economy and world's manufacturing powerhouse, China emits billions of tons of greenhouse gases annually. To meet its long-term emissions goals, Beijing has poured massive investments into building renewable energy capacity and deploying supportive infrastructure. China now produces most of the world's photovoltaic solar panels and controls supply of key raw materials, such as indium, used in solar manufacturing. It is also responsible for around 60% of global wind turbine production, giving it unrivalled leverage in expanding its clean energy base. China's rapid shift to clean energy is being driven by clear policy direction and substantial public and private investment. Government support, faster permitting, and control over critical supply chains have allowed the country to roll out new renewable capacity at an unprecedented pace. If the United States doesn't respond with equally strong action, such as scaling clean energy subsidies, investing in domestic manufacturing, and modernizing its energy strategy, it risks falling far behind Beijing. North American firms like SolarBank Corp. (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: GY2) are working as best they can to provide solar energy products to the market, but more needs to be done around the region to ramp up the uptake of renewable energy. 

SolarBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN) (CSE: SUNN) is a premier developer and owner of renewable and clean energy projects, specializing in distributed and community solar initiatives throughout Canada and the United States. The company is committed to advancing the transition to sustainable energy by offering end-to-end services that include project origination, financing structuring, engineering, procurement, construction, and long-term operations and maintenance. SolarBank focuses on delivering innovative energy solutions through solar photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure.

With a vision to provide scalable and reliable clean energy solutions, SolarBank has established itself as a leader in the renewable energy market by cultivating partnerships with utilities, commercial and industrial entities, municipalities, and residential customers. Its vertically integrated business model allows for optimized efficiency, cost management, and returns across diverse markets in North America. This end-to-end approach ensures greater control over project quality, costs, and operational outcomes, strengthening its competitive position.

Driven by a mission to create a greener future, SolarBank manages a robust portfolio of projects, including more than 100 megawatts (MW) of developed capacity and a pipeline exceeding one gigawatt (GW). The company’s commitment to sustainability and innovation makes it a recognized player in the renewable energy sector.

SolarBank has offices in Toronto, Ontario and New York.

Projects

SolarBank boasts an impressive and diverse portfolio of renewable energy initiatives that underline its leadership in the clean energy space. In the U.S., the company has over 250 MW of solar projects under development, principally in New York, focusing on community solar farms and commercial and industrial installations. Notably, SolarBank is developing several community solar projects in upstate New York, which will deliver clean energy to local residents and small businesses. Community solar projects, which are a cornerstone of SolarBank’s portfolio, provide scalable solutions for renters, homeowners, and small businesses to access affordable renewable energy, driving localized energy independence and economic savings.

In Canada, SolarBank has been a significant participant in Ontario’s Feed-in-Tariff program, where it has secured contracts for close to 200 MW of capacity. Its current management includes 70 solar power projects, totaling 28.8 MW of operational solar assets. The company’s expertise extends to the development and ownership of battery energy storage systems and EV charging stations, further diversifying its portfolio.

The company’s vertically integrated approach spans the entire project lifecycle, from initial site acquisition and grid interconnection to long-term operation and maintenance services. This ensures seamless execution and high-quality outcomes, providing value to stakeholders and supporting the transition to a clean energy future.

Market Opportunity

SolarBank operates within a growing renewable energy market driven by global demand for sustainable power solutions. In North America, favorable policies such as the Inflation Reduction Act in the United States and Canada’s investments in green technologies provide a robust foundation for renewable energy adoption. Solar PV installations and battery energy storage systems are at the forefront of this expansion, addressing energy reliability and grid stability while reducing carbon emissions.

The North American solar PV market was valued at $25.02 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach $120.74 billion by 2027, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.7% from 2020 to 2027. Likewise, the global BESS market is expected to expand from $7.8 billion in 2024 to $25.6 billion by 2029, at a CAGR of 26.9%, as reported by MarketsandMarkets. These trends are driven by the increasing integration of renewable energy sources, the need for grid resilience, and declining technology costs.

SolarBank’s operations have it well-positioned to capitalize on these opportunities. With a development pipeline exceeding one gigawatt (GW), the company is focused on meeting growing demand in community and commercial solar sectors. Decentralized energy solutions, such as virtual net metering and behind-the-meter systems, further enhance SolarBank’s market potential by addressing the critical need for flexible, cost-effective, and sustainable energy infrastructure.

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX).

A focus during the webinar was the investigator-initiated study currently being conducted at the University of Pennsylvania under the leadership of Dr. Ellen Kim.

Interim results show that among the first eight patients who completed 18 weeks of treatment, 75% demonstrated a greater than 50% reduction in disease severity.

Soligenix anticipates top-line results from the phase 3 trial in the second half of 2026.

In a recent webinar hosted by Allele Capital, Soligenix (NASDAQ: SNGX) executives Dr. Christopher Schaber and Dr. Christopher Pullion shared detailed updates on the company's HyBryte(TM) (synthetic hypericin) clinical development ( https://ibn.fm/dz7eO ). The event offered an in-depth look at Soligenix's ongoing confirmatory phase 3 trial for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma ("CTCL"), a rare non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and discussed promising data emerging from an investigator-initiated study conducted at the University of Pennsylvania. Soligenix, a late-stage biopharmaceutical company, is dedicated to developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases and unmet medical needs, and HyBryte(TM) represents the company's lead asset aimed at transforming the treatment landscape for CTCL.

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases with high unmet medical needs. Operating through two key segments, the company’s Specialized BioTherapeutics division is dedicated to oncology and inflammation therapies, while its Public Health Solutions segment advances vaccines and therapeutics targeting biothreats and infectious diseases.

The company is actively advancing multiple late-stage clinical programs, including HyBryte™ (SGX301), a novel photodynamic therapy for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).

With a diversified pipeline, multiple orphan and fast-track designations, and collaborations with government agencies, Soligenix is uniquely positioned for potential regulatory approvals and commercialization.

The company is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey.

Pipeline and Development Programs

Specialized BioTherapeutics

Soligenix’s Specialized BioTherapeutics division develops treatments for oncology and inflammatory diseases, focusing on conditions with few or no effective therapeutic options. HyBryte™ (synthetic hypericin) has completed a Phase 3 study for CTCL, demonstrating statistically significant efficacy, and a second confirmatory Phase 3 trial is actively enrolling patients to support potential regulatory submissions worldwide. If approved, it would be the first non-mutagenic photodynamic therapy for early-stage CTCL, addressing an unmet medical need. It has received orphan drug designations in the U.S. and Europe, as well as Fast Track designation in the U.S.

GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ)

It was expected that the military conflict between Iran and Israel would cause global oil and gas prices to skyrocket. However, after 12 days of drone and missile strikes between the warring parties, compounded by U.S. strikes on key nuclear sites in Iran, oil and gas prices on the global market are lower than the levels at which they were prior to the confrontation. What could explain this anomaly? The output of shale oil and gas in the United States is one key reason to explain why the market has generally remained stable despite the boiling conflict in the Middle East. The output from the U.S. has provided needed diversification of supply sources, so countries that would have suffered if production in the Middle East is hampered are assured that America can increase its production if the need arises. This supply buffer has calmed markets and had a beneficial effect upon prices. Ironically, the final factor we will discuss here has to do with the previous threats that Iran has made that it would close the strait. Each time there has been a threat to the country, Iran has quickly threatened to close the strait and nothing has happened. In Texas, they would describe Iran as "all hat, but no cattle." Big talk, no action. Iran has repeated its threat so many times and done nothing, so the world has learned to ignore its threat. Those who cry wolf when no such wolf is close by eventually get eaten by a wolf as their cries for help are ignored. For now, oil and gas markets are carrying on as though the Middle East didn't flare up in military confrontation. However, entities like GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ) are probably studying the Middle East situation closely in order to identify vital lessons that they can factor into their planning and operations.

GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ), a publicly traded company established as a mine-to-market gold, gemstone and jewelry producer, is now expanding into energy projects and has positioned itself to be a significant player in the energy market with a focus on investment in Latin America’s oil and gas sector. Established with a vision to capitalize on untapped and emerging opportunities, the company specializes in identifying and executing projects with the potential of extraordinary returns.

GEMXX (and its partners) are led by seasoned experts with decades of collective experience in the energy industry. GEMXX leverages cutting-edge technology, strategic partnerships and rigorous market analysis to pinpoint lucrative ventures in Latin America’s dynamic energy landscape. Central to the company’s mission is its commitment to investing in overlooked, low-cost, high return oil and gas exploration projects. By meticulously assessing geological data, geopolitical factors and market trends, GEMXX identifies regions with the greatest potential for significant undiscovered reserves and optimal extraction conditions.

The company’s strategic geographic focus on Latin America allows it to capitalize on the region’s vast reserves while navigating regulatory frameworks to foster mutually beneficial relationships with local stakeholders. Through a combination of innovation, expertise and unwavering dedication, GEMXX aims to redefine the possibilities in Latin America’s oil and gas sector.

The company is headquartered in Las Vegas.

Projects and Operations

Energy Investments

GEMXX is strategically expanding its business model to include a significant partnership with Latin Energy Partners Inc. LEP is actively exploring two basins in Latin America, with estimates indicating a potential for over 1 billion barrels of recoverable oil in each basin.

The two companies have defined terms to jointly drill four test wells in a promising geological formation in the Republic of Paraguay. GEMXX’s investment secures 40% of production from the first four wells and 40% of future production from nearly 25,000 acres surrounding the initial test well heads.

Seismic and geological data assessments show promising indicators for hydrocarbon deposits. Initial exploration of the two target basins confirmed several kilometers of sedimentary fill with strong potential for accommodating successful, conventional oil and gas petroleum systems.

Latin America remains largely uncharted in hydrocarbon exploration, yet recent studies suggest considerable untapped potential. GEMXX believes Latin America is one of the last underdeveloped energy opportunities on Earth, quickly emerging due to demand and deregulation.

Market Opportunity

A 2023 report from ReportLinker, an award-winning market research company, estimated the value of the global oil and gas market that year at $7.33 trillion and projected it would grow to $8.67 trillion by 2027, representing a CAGR of 4.3% over the forecast period.

The report identified the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, with its resulting economic sanctions and supply chain disruptions, as a constraint on market expansion that will hold market growth below its natural level. Oil price volatility is also likely to have a negative impact on market growth, according to the report. In May 2024, the market price of crude oil was approximately $78 per barrel.

The World Gold Council, the industry association for the world’s gold producers, estimated in 2023 the physical financial gold market, which is made up of bars, coins, gold ETFs and central bank reserves, is worth nearly $5 trillion. The council reports that gold mine production adds approximately 3,500 tons of the precious metal to the world’s supply annually, equivalent to about 2% growth.

This historical scarcity and relatively slow production of new supply, as compared to other commodities, is a primary reason gold has retained its value for millennia, according to the council. In May 2024, the market price of gold was approximately $2,340 per ounce.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF).

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) is a Canadian exploration and development company advancing the district-scale Swanson Gold Project in Québec’s prolific Abitibi Gold Belt and progressing toward the near-term restart of gold production at its wholly owned Beacon Gold Mill. The company’s strategy centers on consolidating strategic land packages—highlighted by its flagship Swanson Gold Project, a 160 km² district-scale property that includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. The company is leveraging its 100%-owned, fully permitted and recently refurbished Beacon Gold Mill to transition from explorer to near-term gold producer—a key inflection point that typically triggers a market re-rating, further bolstered by current rising gold market prices. By processing material from Swanson and offering custom milling to regional projects, LaFleur aims to generate cash flow with minimal capital outlay, targeting annual gold production of up to 15,000 to 20,000 ounces by early 2026.

LaFleur’s vision is to evolve into an intermediate gold producer by capitalizing on strong market conditions and Québec’s rich mining infrastructure. The location, in the world-class Abitibi Gold Belt, and its infrastructure advantage, positions LaFleur for regional consolidation, strategic partnerships, or acquisition interest. Its mission emphasizes efficient value creation through methodical exploration, low-cost asset advancement, and opportunistic acquisitions—including land and deposits from Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining.

Québec ranks among the world’s top mining jurisdictions, offering access to flow-through capital and regulatory stability. LaFleur’s integrated strategy—combining exploration at Swanson, a permitted mill at Beacon, and potential custom milling agreements—supports a streamlined path to near-term production.

LaFleur Minerals is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Projects

LaFleur Minerals’ operations focus on two strategically located assets in the Abitibi Gold Belt: the Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill and Mine. These projects leverage the region’s world-class mining infrastructure and high-grade gold potential to drive the company’s transition to production.

Swanson Gold Project

The Swanson Gold Project spans 16,600 hectares and hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits along a major structural break in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Swanson deposit outlines 123,400 oz of gold in Indicated category (2.1 million tonnes at 1.8 g/t) and 64,500 oz in Inferred category (872,000 tonnes at 2.3 g/t). Located 66 km north of Val-d’Or, the Project is accessible by road and rail and benefits from more than 36,000 meters of historical drilling, along with existing infrastructure including an 80-meter decline portal.

Recent work—including airborne magnetics, soil sampling, and Induced Polarization surveys—has identified multiple high-priority targets and resulted in several high-grade gold assay results, including a grab sample grading 11.71 g/t Au at Jolin, which points to significant upside as the Company prepares to test multiple new zones.

LaFleur has defined over 50 drill targets at Swanson and nearby prospects (Bartec, Jolin, Marimac) and is completing a minimum 5,000-metre diamond drilling beginning in June 2025. LaFleur Minerals has also initiated permitting for a 100,000-tonne surface bulk sample averaging 1.89 g/t Au, which it plans to process at the Beacon Gold Mill as part of a near-term production strategy.

Beacon Gold Mill

LaFleur’s 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill is a fully refurbished and permitted mill and tailings storage facility capable of processing 750 tonnes per day (tpd), with potential expansion to 1,800 tpd, with access to numerous nearby gold deposits that could be prime sources of ore. Located only 60 km from Swanson, it underwent a $20 million upgrade by Monarch Mining in 2022 and has been under care and maintenance since early 2023. LaFleur is finalizing a C$5-6 million restart plan, ramping up production by late 2025 into early 2026, processing Swanson mineralized material and assessing custom milling opportunities for regional deposits, creating multiple potential revenue streams.

The Beacon Gold Mill is a de-risked, proven asset that benefits from existing infrastructure, including access to roads, power, and skilled labor, and further enhances the overall value proposition of LaFleur by providing a clear path to production and potential revenue-generation.

Market Opportunity

LaFleur Minerals is targeting the gold mining and processing market in Québec’s Abitibi Gold Belt, one of the world’s most productive gold regions. Its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill, with a 750 tpd capacity and authorization to process 1.8 million tonnes of tailings, is strategically positioned to handle material from LaFleur’s Swanson Gold Project and to offer custom milling for nearby deposits such as Granada Gold. The company projects annual production of over 30,000 ounces of gold once in full production, with potential for significant revenue generation based on prevailing market prices.

Global demand for gold remains robust, driven by geopolitical risk, inflation hedging, and central bank accumulation. The World Gold Council forecasts 3-5% annual demand growth through 2030, with average prices expected between $3,200 and $3,500/oz. Within this environment, Québec’s top-tier mining jurisdiction—ranked fifth globally by the Fraser Institute in 2023—offers streamlined permitting and access to flow-through capital. LaFleur’s low-cost Beacon restart (C$5-6 million) and proximity to more than 100 active and historical mines position the company to fill a growing need for small-to-medium scale custom milling.

At Swanson, LaFleur plans to grow its current 187,900-ounce resource toward 1 million ounces through its 2025 drilling program. This hub-and-spoke strategy, leveraging centralized milling and strong local infrastructure, reduces development risk and strengthens LaFleur’s foothold in one of the most attractive gold belts in the world.
