D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS)

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

A startup based in the United Kingdom recently made history when it debuted a quantum computer that uses standard silicon chips at the UK National Quantum Computing Center (NQCC). The recent deployment represents a significant step in quantum computing development and could democratize the nascent technology by eliminating the need for specialized and costly chips. Developed by Quantum Motion, this system is the startup's first silicon-based full-stack quantum computer, eschewing conventional quantum computing development by using standard silicon chip technology over specialized chips. The new quantum computing system employs the same silicon chips used in laptops and mobile phones, making it the first quantum computer in history to be developed using the chip fabrication process used to develop traditional computers. The company's approach is clever because it uses the same manufacturing processes that already pump out billions of smartphone and computer chips, potentially making quantum computers way more affordable and practical. CEO and President Hugo Saleh said that their system can eventually handle millions of qubits without needing a bigger physical footprint, which means quantum computing might finally be ready to move out of specialized research facilities and into the real world. With many other companies like D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) working to bring quantum computing to the mainstream, the future of the technology is looking brighter day by day.

Brera Holdings PLC (NASDAQ: BREA)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Brera Holdings PLC(NASDAQ: BREA).

Brera Holdings (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 ("MCO") strategy. The company was featured in a recent article that discusses its Outperform rating from PartnerCap Securities. "The firm assigned a price target of $11.50 in a new report, ‘Kicking off a Global Value Play: Early Entry into the World's First Public MCO Platform.' The coverage initiation highlights Brera's role as the first publicly listed multi-club ownership company, positioning it within an expanding asset class where football franchises are increasingly treated as financial investments. PartnerCap argues that Brera's current valuation fails to reflect either its recent acquisitions or the broader synergies expected from its portfolio strategy," reads the article. "PartnerCap estimates Brera will generate $15.2 million in revenue in fiscal year 2026. Based on current trading levels, the company is valued at roughly 1.0x EV/revenue, well below the 2.7x peer average. The $11.50 target reflects a multiple of 2.25x on those projections."

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.

Strawberry Fields REIT Inc. (NYSE American: STRW) is a self-administered real estate investment trust engaged in the ownership, acquisition, development, and leasing of skilled nursing and other healthcare-related properties. Initially spun out in 2015 with a 33-property portfolio in Indiana and Illinois, the company has steadily expanded its footprint and now owns and leases across 10 states. Its facilities are leased to experienced third-party operators, primarily under long-term triple-net agreements.

The company’s disciplined strategy emphasizes working with regional operators and experienced consultants, focusing on markets where demographic tailwinds and regulatory barriers support long-term demand. From 2020 through projected 2025, the company achieved compound annual growth rates of 13.6% in Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) and 13.5% in Adjusted EBITDA (AEBITDA).

In August 2025, the board of directors approved a 14.3% increase in the company’s quarterly dividend to $0.16 per share. Chairman and CEO Moishe Gubin stated that the dividend increase reflects the company’s strong performance and sustainable outlook, while still keeping the payout ratio below 50%.

Strawberry Fields REIT is headquartered in South Bend, Indiana.

Portfolio

As of September 2025, Strawberry Fields REIT owns and holds long-term leasehold interests in 142 healthcare facilities totaling more than 15,500 licensed beds. The portfolio includes 130 skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), 10 assisted living facilities (ALFs), and two long-term acute care hospitals (LTACHs), with properties located in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas.

In recent months, Strawberry Fields REIT has expanded its portfolio through the following acquisitions:

• Nine skilled nursing facilities in Missouri totaling 686 beds for $59 million. Eight of the facilities were added to an existing master lease with the Tide Group, increasing annual base rent by $5.5 million, while the ninth facility was added to Reliant Care Group’s lease, raising rent by an additional $0.6 million.
• An 80-bed skilled nursing facility near Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, for $4.25 million, which was leased to a current operator under a master lease with $425,000 of initial rents and 3% annual escalations.
• A 124-bed facility comprised of 108 skilled nursing beds and 16 assisted living beds near Poplar Bluff, Missouri, for $5.3 million, which was leased to a current operator under a master lease with $530,000of initial rents and 3% annual escalations.

Market Opportunity

Strawberry Fields REIT operates in the skilled nursing and post-acute healthcare real estate sector, which is supported by favorable demographic and regulatory trends. The U.S. population aged 65 and older is expected to exceed 72 million by 2030 and reach 88.5 million by 2050. According to the CDC, 83.5% of skilled nursing facility residents are 65 or older.

The sector benefits from high barriers to entry, including regulatory constraints, capital requirements, and operational complexity. At the same time, government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid provide a stable reimbursement base. The company noted that despite challenges, its operators have demonstrated consistent profitability in states that are traditionally considered difficult for SNF operators.

Spending on SNF care for the aging population is projected to grow from $181.6 billion in 2021 to $273 billion in 2030, reflecting a compound annual growth rate of 4.63%. Strawberry Fields REIT’s geographic clustering strategy and long-term lease structure position it to benefit from this increasing demand and constrained supply.

Leadership Team

Moishe Gubin, Chairman, CEO, and Founder, has served as CEO since the company’s inception and was involved in every acquisition. He previously served as CFO and manager of Infinity Healthcare Management and is a licensed CPA in New York.

Jeffrey Bajtner, Chief Investment Officer and Chief Operating Officer, joined the company in 2021. He oversees acquisitions, dispositions, and investor relations. Previously, he held leadership roles at BlitzLake Partners and NorthStar Realty Finance. He is a licensed CPA in Illinois.

Greg Flamion, Chief Financial Officer, joined in January 2024. He was formerly CFO at Zimmerman Advertising and has held senior finance roles at Diageo and Bristol Myers Squibb. He holds an MBA from the University of Florida and is a CPA licensed in Indiana.

Steven Greenfield, General Counsel, joined in April 2025. He previously served as Managing Attorney at HammondLaw and held executive and legal positions at Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP and Mayer Brown LLP, focusing on tax and securities law.

NRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRXP)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight NRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRXP).

NRx Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: NRXP) , a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted its Suitability Petition for KETAFREE(TM), a planned single-patient, preservative-free ketamine product. Unlike current ketamine offerings in multi-dose vials containing the toxic preservative Benzethonium Chloride, KETAFREE(TM) is designed to eliminate such additives. The approval enables immediate re-filing of the Company's Abbreviated New Drug Application. NRx noted the product supports federal priorities of re-shoring sterile drug manufacturing and removing harmful preservatives, with the ketamine market estimated at $750 million. The Company is also advancing NRX-100, a non-generic ketamine formulation under development for suicidal depression and PTSD.

To view the full press release, visit https://ibn.fm/nqA1A

NRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRXP) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing therapies for central nervous system disorders, with a particular emphasis on conditions characterized by acute suicidality. The company is leveraging its proprietary NMDA receptor modulation platform to address significant unmet medical needs in suicidal depression, bipolar depression, chronic pain, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

With a commitment to advancing life-saving treatments, NRx is developing novel therapeutics aimed at providing safer and more effective alternatives to current treatment options. Its lead investigational drug, NRX-101, is positioned to be the first FDA-approved oral therapy for suicidal bipolar depression. Additionally, the company is working to bring NRX-100 (intravenous ketamine) to market as an approved treatment for acute suicidal depression, a condition for which existing treatments remain limited.

By integrating cutting-edge science with a patient-focused mission, NRx aims to transform the standard of care for individuals suffering from severe psychiatric and neurological conditions.

NRx has also established HOPE Therapeutics, a subsidiary focused on delivering interventional psychiatric care through a nationwide clinic network. HOPE Therapeutics aims to become the first coordinated system of care for suicidal depression and PTSD, combining ketamine, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), digital therapeutics, and other precision psychiatry tools in a supervised clinical environment.

NRx is headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware. HOPE is headquartered in Miami, Florida.

Product Portfolio

NRx Pharmaceuticals’ pipeline includes multiple late-stage therapeutic candidates targeting psychiatric and neurological disorders:

• NRX-100: A preservative free intravenous ketamine formulation under development for acute suicidal depression, backed by strong clinical trial data and Fast Track designation from the FDA.
• NRX-101: An oral therapy with a dual mechanism targeting NMDA and 5-HT2A receptors, designed for patients with suicidal treatment-resistant bipolar depression. The drug has received Breakthrough Therapy designation from the FDA.
• Expanded Research: The company is further evaluating NRX-101 as a potential non-opioid treatment for chronic pain and a therapy for complicated urinary tract infections.

NRx’s therapeutic pipeline is designed to address conditions with limited or no treatment options, with the potential to improve patient outcomes and expand the standard of care.

HOPE Therapeutics

HOPE Therapeutics, a wholly owned subsidiary of NRx Pharmaceuticals, is establishing a national network of psychiatrist-led clinics focused on suicidal depression and PTSD. Its care model integrates preservative-free ketamine, TMS, digital therapeutics, and supervised psychiatric support to deliver rapid, measurable outcomes.

The company is targeting more than 30 clinic acquisitions by year-end 2025. Recent agreements include the acquisition of Dura Medical and a letter of intent with Neurospa TMS, strengthening HOPE’s foundation in interventional psychiatry. In April, HOPE also secured a term sheet for strategic investment from a global medical device manufacturer.

With ketamine sales already underway under a 503B license, HOPE projects $100 million in annual revenue and profitability by year-end 2025. Positioned as a standalone care delivery company, HOPE offers NRx a potential future spinout opportunity to unlock additional shareholder value.

Market Opportunity

The need for innovative treatments in mental health and pain management is substantial. Suicide is a leading cause of death in the United States, claiming nearly 50,000 lives each year, with over 12 million adults seriously considering suicide annually, according to the CDC.

Suicidal depression, a distinct and life-threatening condition, affects approximately 3.5 million Americans. Despite this prevalence, the only approved intervention remains electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), a treatment with significant side effects and limited access. NRx aims to address this urgent gap with NRX-100, a preservative-free intravenous ketamine formulation being developed as the first FDA-approved treatment specifically for suicidal depression.

Additionally, approximately 7 million Americans suffer from bipolar depression, a condition where nearly half of patients will attempt suicide during their lifetime and one in five may die by suicide. NRX-101, NRx’s oral drug candidate, targets this critical unmet need as a potential first-in-class therapy specifically for bipolar depression.

Beyond mood disorders, chronic pain affects over 50 million individuals in the U.S., and PTSD impacts more than 12 million people—conditions for which few non-opioid, fast-acting treatments are available. By addressing these high-risk, underserved populations, NRx Pharmaceuticals is positioned to enter multiple billion-dollar markets and reshape the standard of care for severe psychiatric and neurological illnesses.

Leadership Team

Jonathan C. Javitt, Founder, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer or NRx, and Co-CEO of HOPE, brings four decades of experience in pharmaceutical and medical device development. He has led blockbuster drug and device programs at major companies, including Allergan, Merck, and Novartis, and has served as an advisor to four U.S. presidential administrations.

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

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

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) (FSE: Z7D) was featured in a recent article that discussed its continued construction of production facilities at its eastern Canada mine tailings reclamation site and examination of other potential sites for similar recovery and revenue generation throughout North and South America. "The traditional exploration model has eroded more capital than it's created," ESGold CEO Gordon Robb was quoted as saying. "Our approach reverses that equation. We begin with production — monetizing what others left behind — then reinvest from a position of strength into exploration. Montauban is our proof-of-concept. We believe this model can scale to dozens, even hundreds of other tailings sites across the Americas and elsewhere."

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.

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.

Oncotelic Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Oncotelic Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC).

Oncotelic Therapeutics (OTCQB: OTLC) announced that its joint venture through GMP Biotechnology Limited, Sapu Nano, has received approval from Australia's Human Research Ethics Committee to begin enrolling patients in a Phase 1 human clinical trial of Sapu003, an injectable form of Everolimus for breast cancer. Everolimus, marketed as Afinitor(R), is FDA-approved in oral form but has limited absorption of about 10%. Using Sapu Nano's Deciparticle(TM) technology, Sapu003 is delivered intravenously, allowing full drug absorption into the bloodstream. Preclinical data suggest this approach could improve efficacy over the oral version. The trial will determine optimal dosing for future studies, including a potential Phase 3, aiming to provide longer-lasting disease control and improved outcomes for breast cancer patients.

Oncotelic Therapeutics Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing RNA-based, immunotherapy, and targeted therapeutics for cancer and other underserved diseases. The company is focused on transforming outcomes for patients with difficult-to-treat and rare conditions, particularly pediatric cancers and aggressive solid tumors. Its development strategy centers on novel compound design, nanoparticle drug delivery, and the integration of artificial intelligence to accelerate discovery and regulatory workflows.

At the center of this foundation is Chairman and CEO Dr. Vuong Trieu, a prolific industry pioneer who has filed more than 500 patents with 75 issued patents across biologics, small molecules, nanoparticles, and diagnostics. Dr. Trieu co-invented Abraxane® (sold to Celgene for $2.9 billion), underscoring his track record of creating high-value therapies. Through collaborations with industry leaders and its stake in specialized joint ventures, Oncotelic is positioned to advance a diverse portfolio of oncology assets with greater speed and cost efficiency. The company also operates a proprietary AI platform, PDAOAI, which streamlines scientific writing, regulatory documentation, and data interpretation. This system is accessible to the public through a dedicated Discord server, offering real-time engagement with Oncotelic’s research ecosystem.

With expanded clinical activity and a next-generation development model, Oncotelic continues to evolve as a multi-asset innovator in precision oncology.

The company is headquartered in Agoura Hills, California.

Pipeline and Partnerships

Oncotelic’s lead candidate is OT-101, currently in a Phase 3 trial for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (STOP-PC study) and evaluated in gliomas and metastatic solid tumors in combination with IL-2 and checkpoint inhibitors. The antisense molecule targets TGF-β2, a cytokine known to suppress immune responses and promote tumor growth. A Phase 1 trial combining OT-101 with IL-2 was recently completed, demonstrating safety and paving the way for combination therapies with PD-1 blockers and other immunotherapies.

Recent data have further strengthened the rationale for OT-101 in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In June and July 2025, two peer-reviewed studies published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences identified TGF-β2 gene expression and methylation status as significant prognostic markers in PDAC, particularly among younger patients and those with low CD8+ T-cell infiltration. High TGF-β2 expression correlated with reduced overall survival, while elevated TGF-β2 methylation was associated with improved outcomes. These findings validate TGF-β2 as a high-priority target and support the continued development of OT-101 as a precision therapy. Both studies leveraged Oncotelic’s proprietary AI-driven platform, PDAOAI, to mine and assemble multi-omic datasets, showcasing the system’s role in accelerating insight generation.

The company holds a 45% ownership stake in GMP Biotechnology Limited, a joint venture with Dragon Capital Overseas Limited. GMP Bio owns SAPU Bioscience, which is executing several pipeline programs. SAPU and Oncotelic are jointly utilizing a rapid IND platform through their partnership with Shanghai Medicilon to support regulatory filings for up to 20 drug candidates, with five INDs already underway. This collaboration is central to accelerating development of next-generation anticancer agents.

After the joint venture, Dr. Trieu, with his team, built out a state of the art and GMP-certified R&D facility in San Diego, which operates under SAPU, that manufactures clinical trial materials and supports a proprietary nanoparticle platform trademarked Deciparticle ™. This platform includes four therapeutic candidates—two of which are in late-stage manufacturing and expected to enter IND filing before the end of 2025.

Additionally, Oncotelic owns AL-101, an intranasal administered apomorphine product intended for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease, Erectile Dysfunction, and Female Sexual Disorders.

Market Opportunity

Oncotelic is targeting large and underserved therapeutic markets with significant commercial potentials. The global pancreatic cancer treatment market alone is projected to grow at a 12.3% CAGR, reaching $5.84 billion by 2030, up from $2.92 billion in 2024, according to Research and Markets. This growth is driven by increased disease prevalence, aging populations, and demand for more effective treatment options. Notably, the incidence of early-onset PDAC is rising at an estimated rate of 4% per year in the 15–34 age group, highlighting an emerging unmet need for targeted therapies among younger patients.

Beyond oncology, Oncotelic intends to develop AL-101 for Parkinson’s disease, which affects over 1 million patients in the U.S. alone and is expected to impact 1.2 million by 2030. Erectile Dysfunction and Female Sexual Dysfunction are also major global health issues, with Erectile Dysfunction affecting up to 70% of men over 60 and Female Sexual Dysfunction impacting approximately 40% of women—both with limited treatment options, particularly for patients who fail to respond to existing medications. These underserved populations offer fertile ground for innovative new therapies.

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG; LTRYW) is a global sports, entertainment, and gaming company redefining how audiences connect with content through immersive technology and ethical engagement. Formerly known as Lottery.com Inc., the company recently completed a comprehensive corporate transformation, rebranding as SEGG Media (short for Sports Entertainment Gaming Global Media) to reflect its new strategic direction and structural overhaul.

With a mission to fuse real-time experiences, fan-first platforms, and responsible innovation, SEGG Media operates at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and gaming. Its business model is built around three synergistic verticals, each designed to scale globally while delivering meaningful value to fans, partners, and shareholders.

From sim racing and esports to live event streaming and charitable gaming, SEGG Media is building a next-generation platform that redefines how audiences interact with their favorite content and communities.

The company is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas.

Portfolio

SEGG Media’s operations are structured across three core verticals: Sports.com, Entertainment, and Lottery.com.

• Sports.com is SEGG’s global hub for immersive sports media, covering sim racing, football, motorsports, and athlete-led content. The vertical includes Sports.com Studios, Sports.com Media, and Nook, each focused on original storytelling and fan-driven experiences. In June 2025, SEGG announced plans to acquire a 51% stake in the sports and technology assets of GXR World to launch the Sports.com Super App, a first-of-its-kind platform combining live streaming, e-commerce, community chat, real-money and fantasy gaming, and sports news. Built on GXR’s tech stack, which already draws over one million monthly active users, the Super App is expected to debut in Q3 2025 with an initial focus on soccer and motorsports.
• The Entertainment pillar includes AI-driven event streaming, music and fashion media, and hybrid live experiences. As part of its acquisition-led growth model, SEGG is advancing a proposed deal to acquire DotCom Ventures Inc., owner of Concerts.com and TicketStub.com, to build out ticketing, event distribution, and direct-to-fan monetization infrastructure. This initiative aligns with SEGG’s five-year plan to unify content, commerce, and fan engagement under one platform, supported by a $100 million financing facility activated in May 2025.
• Lottery.com, SEGG’s ethical gaming division, delivers domestic and international lottery access, iGaming, instant wins, sports betting, charitable gaming through properties such as WinTogether, and syndicated results data to more than 800 publishers through Tinbu. With compliance issues resolved and new operating structures in place, the platform is being relaunched globally through Lottery.com International.

Together, these three verticals enable SEGG Media to unify fragmented fan experiences into a fully integrated global ecosystem—where sports, gaming, content, and commerce converge.

Market Opportunity

The global sports betting industry is undergoing rapid expansion as digital adoption accelerates and new markets open to regulation. According to Grand View Research, the sports betting market was valued at $100.9 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $187.39 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate of 11% from 2025 to 2030. This growth is fueled by increased internet penetration, widespread mobile usage, and rising interest in real-time, interactive fan experiences.

Beyond sports betting, SEGG Media also operates in the high-growth arenas of streaming, esports, and AI-powered content delivery. These adjacent markets are seeing double-digit global growth as fans demand more immersive, on-demand, and participatory forms of entertainment. With its diversified platform and strategic positioning across three converging verticals, SEGG Media is built to capitalize on multiple long-term secular trends and unlock scalable revenue opportunities.

Leadership Team

Matthew McGahan, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, joined the company in October 2022. Since then, he has played a central role in stabilizing operations, restructuring the organization, and guiding its rebrand to SEGG Media. McGahan brings a mix of entrepreneurial drive and philanthropic leadership, having founded the UK-based charity Mask Our Heroes during the COVID-19 pandemic and previously built and sold the Harley-Davidson dealership Magic Automotive Group.

Tim Scoffham, CEO of Sports.com Media and Lottery.com International, brings over 20 years of leadership experience across gaming, media, and digital sports entertainment. Appointed following a successful consultancy period, Scoffham now leads SEGG’s global growth strategy for its iGaming and sports media divisions. He is focused on expanding international operations, aligning media and technology platforms, and driving revenue across high-growth jurisdictions while strengthening regulatory partnerships.
