• NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Exorbitant costs underscored by byzantine processes plague today’s healthcare systems, creating an $8.45 trillion global healthcare market in 2018, which represents about 10% of GDP in developed countries. Safe to say, the industry is looking for solutions, particularly more efficient ones that improve health outcomes and lower direct and indirect costs. The answer is found in technology, with healthtech (healthcare technology) and medtech (medical technology) buzzwords speaking to leveraging next-generation innovation in a bid to flatten the healthcare spending curve. New applications are being launched daily, and uptake is accelerating, fanned by the COVID-19 pandemic that bolstered adoption of self-diagnostic and remote solutions that have been embraced by health insurers and individuals alike. Some companies, such as Nemaura Medical Inc. (NASDAQ: NMRD), are specializing in certain areas of unmet medical need, such as diabetes and obesity for NMRD. 

Nemaura Medical Inc. (NASDAQ: NMRD) is a medical technology company developing affordable diagnostic and digital tools for chronic disease management. Its flagship product, sugarBEAT®, is a wearable, non-invasive and flexible Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) designed to help people with diabetes and prediabetes manage their glucose levels. Insulin users can adjunctively use sugarBEAT when calibrated with a finger-stick glucose reading.

sugarBEAT consists of a daily disposable adhesive skin patch connected to a rechargeable transmitter with a smartphone app displaying glucose readings at five-minute intervals for periods of up to 24 hours. One of the great advantages of the product, apart from the fact that users no longer need to draw blood samples or prick their fingers, is that a person can wear the CGM patch on whatever day they choose. Existing CGM devices must be implanted under the skin. Wearable disposability is a unique feature of sugarBEAT and a world first, opening up vast potential for changing the way people manage their chronic disease conditions. sugarBEAT received CE mark clearance in May 2019, allowing it to be marketed and sold within the European Union as a Class 2b Medical Device. The company submitted a premarket approval (PMA) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2020 which is currently under review.

Founded in 2011, Nemaura set out to develop a single platform technology to measure blood markers at the surface of the skin. Since then, the company has evolved with the creation of wearable technologies and digital health care solutions that encourage and empower people to take charge of their own health and well-being. Nemaura’s skin surface blood monitoring technology has allowed the company to create additional products, which are in the pipeline, such as Lactate Monitoring.

Technologies

Digital Solutions for Weight Loss and Potential Reversal of Type 2 Diabetes

This is a digital program that comes with more than a decade of clinical evidence demonstrating excellent efficacy. The company has combined this with its glucose-monitoring platform to bring a product to market to help people with diabetes manage their condition and potentially reverse Type 2 diabetes.

Glucose Monitoring Solutions for Diabetes Prevention and Reversal

Over 420 million people worldwide are living with diabetes, and prediabetes cases total almost three times that number. Undoubtedly, diabetes is an urgent global health crisis. Combining clinical research with patient-friendly technology, Nemaura’s sugarBEAT product delivers a non-invasive, affordable and flexible method of blood glucose tracking for improved diabetes management.

Continuous Lactate Monitoring for Athletic Performance (Non-Medical)

Lactic acid is a key performance indicator for the body and a guide to how well muscles react to long term exertion and recovery. Well-trained athletes and those who regularly engage in sports are very efficient at faster lactate ‘recycling’ for extra energy (ATP). Nemaura expects to launch its lactate sensor to the sports and personal training market in 2022.

Continuous Lactate Monitoring in Disease State (Medical)

An increase in blood lactate levels is also a marker of critical disease states. Recent publications have indicated the presence of elevated lactate levels in patients with COVID-19 infection. Nemaura has developed a lactate sensor that is being integrated into the company’s platform, which will be submitted for regulatory clearance upon completion of requisite clinical studies.

Continuous Temperature Monitoring for Viral Infection Detection and Disease Progression

A person’s body temperature says a lot about their health. Several diseases, including COVID-19, are characterized by an increase in body temperature, so temperature monitoring is a vital tool in the detection, diagnosis and prevention of the spread of disease. Nemaura is expecting to submit this adaptation of the device for regulatory clearance in 2022.

Market Opportunity

Obesity and diabetes are two of the major drivers of the current chronic disease epidemic. According to the International Diabetes Federation, there are more than 463 million people living with diabetes worldwide. In the U.S., about 28,000 people are diagnosed with diabetes every week, and more than 34 million suffer from diabetes. Another 88 million Americans have prediabetes. Other industrialized countries show similar numbers based on their populations. In the U.K., 4.8 million people have diabetes, with another diagnosed every two minutes. In Germany, 9.5 million have diabetes, with almost half estimated to be undiagnosed and so at greater risk.

On average, employers and insurers spend more than $9,000 annually on health care for an employee with diabetes, compared to $1,600 annually for a healthy employee. In the U.S. alone, more than $760 billion was spent on diabetes-related health care expenditures during 2019. Nemaura is positioned at the intersection of the global Type 2 diabetes market that is expected to reach nearly $59 billion by 2025, the $50-plus billion prediabetic market, and the wearable health-tech sector for weight loss and wellness applications forecast to hit $60 billion by 2023.

Ideanomics Inc. (NASDAQ: IDEX) is a global company facilitating the adoption of commercial electric vehicles and supporting next-generation financial services and fintech products. Ideanomics is currently divided into two divisions – mobility and capital. These divisions provide shareholders with access to disruptive and high-growth opportunities.

The company expects 2021 to be another growth year after it raised approximately $400 million over the past six months. This funding has already been put to good use with acquisitions of Wireless Advanced Vehicle Electrification (WAVE) and Timios. With roughly $200 million still on the balance sheet, Ideanomics continues to look for new investments and acquisitions in revenue-based opportunities focused on EV and fintech businesses.

Founded in 2004, Ideanomics is headquartered in New York, New York, with additional offices in Hangzhou, Beijing and Qingdao, China. Its current operations span the United States, China, Ukraine and Malaysia.

Ideanomics Mobility

Ideanomics Mobility is focused on the EV market. The global commercial EV market was valued at $34.7 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 39.9% through 2022 to reach a total of $132.73 billion (https://ibn.fm/pPrf4). According to a survey by Grand View Research, the global EV charging infrastructure market is also expected to grow and reach $144.97 billion in 2028, expanding at a CAGR of 33.4% from 2021 to 2028.

This growth is expected to be driven by increased support of electric vehicles from the public, as well as the current U.S. administration, which has a goal of achieving a 100% clean-energy economy.

The Ideanomics Mobility unit consists of five companies:

• Mobile Energy Global (MEG) – Wholly owned China-based service provider of the Sales-to-Finance-to-Charging (S2F2C) business model to assist commercial fleet operators on EV enablement. Recent sales include 2,000 units of D1, BYD’s custom electric ride-hailing vehicle.

More mainstream institutions and a growing number of companies have increased their digital securities services, along with institutional investments boosting bitcoin and the emergence of favorable regulatory developments, creating ample opportunities for widespread adoption of financial technologies.

Additionally, the U.S. real estate industry is ripe for technologization, as it currently is fragmented, antiquated, opaque and largely untouched by tech innovation. However, the expanding market, with U.S. home sales expected to grow 21.9% in 2021, and the increased digitization of all business spaces are expected to promote a digital-first experience as the new industry standard this year and beyond (https://ibn.fm/DwsUv).

DSG Global Inc. (OTCQB: DSGT)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight DSG Global Inc. (DSGT).

DSG Global (OTCQB: DSGT) today announced that its Canadian electric vehicle division, Imperium Motor Company Canada, finished a successful Montreal Electric Vehicle Exhibit this past weekend. According to the update, the company took deposits on 136 SEV vehicles and experienced a strong uptick of 60 more deposits over the weekend for SEV vehicles ordered online during the show. The company received combined deposits on over 196 vehicles for the three-day event. To view the full press release, visit https://ibn.fm/942DI

DSG Global Inc. (OTCQB: DSGT) is an emerging global technology company with interconnecting businesses in fast growing market sectors. With roots in the golf industry, the company specializes in golf fleet management and is moving quickly into road-ready electric vehicles for delivery in the third quarter of 2021.

In 2019, the company secured exclusive North America distribution rights for Jonway Automobile Co. road-ready electric vehicles (EVs). Jonway, based in Zhejiang, China, began manufacturing new vehicles s in 2003 and today produces Electric powered Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUV’s, and Scooters. Jonway vehicles are exported to more than 80 countries and are built to comply with U.S. safety and environmental standards.

These vehicles are being sold via DSG’s wholly owned subsidiary, Imperium Motor Company (IMC). The move into consumer vehicles capitalizes on the company’s strength in the selection and distribution of EVs, the ability to work with large manufacturers and in application of proprietary technology unique to DSG. DSG’s advanced fleet tracking can be integrated into Jonway EVs to offer a customized scalable and integrated solution to meet the needs of small businesses and large enterprises.

The Future is Electric

With decades of EV experience in golf, including distribution of highly advanced carts, DSG recognized the huge chasm between consumer interest in acquiring road ready EVs versus current EV models’ lack of availability and affordability. As such, the company focused on becoming a distribution and EV brand management company unencumbered by the manufacturing process. The manufacturers take responsibility for building vehicles to DSG’s specifications and fulfillment of regulatory and licensing requirements.

DSG has also established a distribution agreement with Skywell New Energy Automobile Group Ltd., an Asian-based EV manufacturer. Skywell will supply DSG with SUV’s, Passenger Vans, Cargo Vans, Commercial Vehicles and Buses that will be fully certified for use in the United States.

Brands

Imperium Motor Company (IMC) seeks to transform the way the world drives by making greener transportation available to everyone. IMC is an EV sales and marketing company that distributes directly to consumers and through third party distributors, offering a wide variety of affordable vehicles equipped for the North American market. The company’s emphasis is on great design, a green mindset, performance and functionality. Its vehicles include 26 models of high-speed, mid-speed and low-speed electric vehicles including cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, buses and scooters.

Vantage Tag Systems (VTS) is a global leader in the design, manufacture, and marketing of fleet management solutions for the golf industry. VTS has developed the TAG suite of products that represents the industry’s first completely modular fleet management solution. The company’s patented analytics, mobile touch screen GPS units and electric golf carts are sold around the world through a network of established distributors and partnerships with notable brands in fleet and equipment manufacture. VTS solutions also have applications in managing commercial, agricultural, military and government fleets. VTS is a wholly owned subsidiary of DSG Global.

Market Outlook

The global EV market was valued at $273 billion in 2017, according to Fortune Business Insights, and is projected to exceed $987 billion by 2027, with a projected CAGR of 17.4 percent. The relative high manufacturing costs of EVs compared to gasoline-powered vehicles and the resulting higher sticker price to consumers are major obstacles to near term market adoption.

The global e-bike market is estimated to grow to $70 billion by 2027 from its current valuation of $41.1 billion. An estimated 130 million e-bikes are expected to be sold globally over the next two years. The U.S. imported approximately 600,000 e-bikes in 2020, according to the Light Electric Vehicle Association, and its analysts expect that number will grow substantially in 2021.

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Mind Cure Health Inc. (CSE: MCUR) (OTCQB: MCURF).

If you’ve been feeling stressed, identifying the cause of the stress and addressing it may help you feel better. University of Lancaster occupational health expert Gary Cooper says that turning to something unhealthy such as drinking or smoking will not help manage stress. However, adopting a positive outlook, remaining in control of your situation and building emotional strength might. Below are a few ways one can use to manage stress. When stress becomes chronic, you may need to see a professional. A number of companies, including Mind Cure Health Inc. (CSE: MCUR) (OTCQB: MCURF), are also developing a new class of therapeutics aimed at giving patients with mental disorders better treatment outcomes.

Mind Cure Health Inc. (CSE: MCUR) (OTCQB: MCURF) (“MINDCURE”) is a diversified life sciences company at the forefront of the mental health industry. The company is currently developing digital therapeutics and researching psychedelic compounds, while innovating and commercializing new ways to promote healing and improve mental health.

MINDCURE’s research and digital therapeutics technology supports access to safe, science-based, evidence-backed psychedelic-assisted therapies globally. With hundreds of millions of people suffering from mental illnesses worldwide and an estimated $1 trillion in lost productivity per year, psychedelics offer promising alternatives for healing. This medical need has been amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 40 percent of U.S. adults reported struggling with substance abuse or mental health issues during the pandemic.

MINDCURE is uniquely positioned to address these medical needs. By concentrating on both technology and research, the company is focusing on near-term revenue generation, targeting a longer-term, blue sky horizon and hedging against regulatory unknowns with a scalable, adaptive model. MINDCURE’s software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform, iSTRYM, scales globally and services every psychedelic medicine without the capital-intensive drag of clinic scale-out costs. The company plans to first enter the market for psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy, then to move into the larger fields of technologically undisrupted psychotherapy and psychiatry.

Technology

Digital therapeutics include health interventions delivered through a smart device to induce a behavioral change in the patient. The global market is focused on simplifying behavioral change and empowering consumers to take charge of their own health. iSTRYM is the company’s AI-driven software platform that enables personalized and quantified outcomes in psychedelic therapy. The SaaS platform modernizes care, taking it from manual to digital and bringing better treatment outcomes for patients and therapists while lowering costs for insurers.

iSTRYM offers clinicians direct access to global, science-backed, evidence-based protocols, integration plans, insights into client journeys, and real-time assessments for personalized care. Patients access the platform on their smart devices, enjoying transparency into their wellness journeys, personalized care resources, and optimized relationships with their practitioners. The minimal viable product (MVP) of the software is being launched in Q3 2021. MINDCURE targets a Q1-Q2 2022 commercial product launch.

Research

In June 2021, the company announced it had completed the first stage of manufacturing pharmaceutical-grade synthetic ibogaine to be used in clinical research. In July, MINDCURE announced it had filed U.S. Provisional Patent applications for the company’s first full synthetic routes to create ibogaine. The company’s pharmaceutical grade ibogaine would provide researchers access to a sustainable, high-quality, reliable, and consistent supply of the psychedelic drug.

The company is also actively researching ibogaine as a potential treatment for Traumatic Brain Injury and related conditions. Preliminary data show the drug may also have promise as a treatment for neuropathic pain and migraines. In addition, research indicates ibogaine may help repair and rewire the brain’s neural pathways, making it potentially useful in the treatment of addictions.

Market Outlook

MINDCURE actively develops technology, conducts research, and distributes products in several market spaces. The global market for digital therapeutics is projected to grow to $6.9 billion by 2025, from an estimated $2.1 billion in 2020.

StraightUp Resources Inc. (CSE: ST) is a public company engaged in the business of mineral exploration and the acquisition of mineral property assets in North America. The company’s flagship properties are located in the Red Lake Mining District of Ontario, Canada, renowned for over 30 million ounces of historic gold production. Other key projects extend into the neighboring Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt of the Uchi Subprovince. The company’s management team is led by dedicated professionals, aiming to maximize shareholder value while employing modern exploration techniques and principles to achieve its goals.

The mission of StraightUp Resources is to maximize shareholder wealth through mineral discoveries at projects with robust potential, maintain long-lasting partnerships, and continue to focus on the acquisition, development and exploration of mineral resource properties in North America. The company’s objective is to continue to locate and develop economic, precious and base metal properties of merit.

The company’s 10,000-hectare (almost 25,000 acres) RLX Projects are contiguous to various Evolution Mining, Great Bear Resources, Pacton Gold and Dixie Gold properties. Its 2,000-hectare (just under 5,000 acres) Belanger Project is contiguous to Infinite Ore’s Fredart and Garnet/Arrow properties. StraightUp intends to conduct exploration on the RLX North, RLX South, Belanger and Ferdinand Gold properties located in the Red Lake District, a location touted as having one of the best metal-endowed greenstone belts in the world. The Bear Head Gold Project is located within the Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt of the Uchi Subprovince, approximately 80 kilometers west of the Pickle Lake Gold Camp and 14 km northeast of the former gold mine, Golden Patricia. It amassed 620,000 ounces of gold at an average of 15.2 g/t Au from 1988-1997. The property is bordered by an Australian miner massive gold project. Known gold occurrences are already mapped on the Bear Head property, as are previous drill holes and results. Once the data is re-examined, an exploration budget and subsequent plans will be announced by the company.

Projects

Ontario’s Red Lake Mining District is one of Canada’s most prolific gold mining districts, renowned for its high-grade gold deposits. This is a mining-friendly, politically stable jurisdiction with a skilled labor force and infrastructure specifically built around meeting the needs of the mining industry.

RLX North & South Projects
At over 10,000 hectares, the RLX North and RLX South Projects represent a district-scale exploration opportunity. The RLX North and RLX South Projects are well positioned on-strike to the southeast of the district’s largest gold deposit (Red Lake Gold Mines – Evolution Mining). The project is adjacent to Great Bear Resources’ Sobel Project. Great Bear Resources is also in the process of evaluating the area for significant regional-scale structural controls and has proposed additional work on its neighboring project in the near term. These properties are highly accessible, with the southern boundary only eight kilometers from the paved highway into Red Lake, and can be accessed by forest service roads which traverse throughout the properties.

Belanger Project
Historic exploration work on the 2,000-hectare property has identified three significant surface exposures of gold, copper and silver. Early exploration work will focus on validating historic sampling results and following the occurrences along strike with a view to better understanding the nature and controls on mineralization. The property has excellent forest road access from the town of Ear Falls.

Ferdinand Gold Project
The Ferdinand property is situated within the southeastern extension of the Confederation-Uchi greenstone belt, one of the most metal-endowed greenstone belts in the world by square kilometer. It consists of 17 contiguous mining claims covering approximately 7,143 hectares (17,650 acres), located 13 kilometers northwest of the town of Slate Falls. Access is currently by logging roads, with forestry logging operations scheduled for expansion on the property. StraightUp recently completed a heliborne magnetic survey consisting of 1,994 line-km at 50m line spacings covering the entire property. The MAG survey was designed to provide geological and structural details of a 25km long southeast extension of the Confederation-Uchi greenstone belt along the Fry-Bamaji Deformation Zone.

Bear Head Gold Project
The Bear Head Gold Project comprises 31 mining claims totaling 1,944 hectares (4,800 acres) in the Meen-Dempster Greenstone Belt of the Uchi Subprovince, host to the Golden Patricia former gold mine, which produced 620,000 ounces of gold from 1988 to 1997. The Dorothy Main gold deposit owned by Ardiden lies only one kilometer from the Bear Head Gold Project. The Dorothy Main gold deposit holds noncompliant historical resources of 46,600 ounces of gold at 6.17 g/t Au. The company looks forward to adding the Bear Head Gold Project to its exploration efforts, with a work program to be conducted later in the fall of 2021.

First Energy Metals Ltd. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight First Energy Metals Ltd. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF).

A new study conducted by researchers from the University of Nottingham has found that palladium may help produce new and sustainable ways of protecting the supply of precious metals as well as using and making molecules. The researchers discovered that the behavior of palladium didn’t match the standard characteristics that classify catalysts as being heterogeneous or homogeneous. The fact that researchers are continuing to find better ways to utilize the existing mineral resources means that the pressure to exhaust the reserves in properties owned by companies such as First Energy Metals Ltd. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF) will not be as high as it would have been if mineral resources were used wastefully.

First Energy Metals Ltd. (CSE: FE) (OTCQB: FEMFF) is a publicly traded Canadian mineral exploration company. Its primary focus is on developing a multi-commodity mineral property portfolio by identifying, acquiring and exploring North American mineral prospects in the precious metal, base metal and industrial metals sectors.

The company believes in all-natural, organically sun-grown, plant-based medicinals, and it provides consumers with science-based education on CBD for disease and lifestyle needs.

Simply Sonoma is focused on being a leader in the industry for plant-based medicinal health and beauty products and partnering with like-minded organizations. The company strives to develop broad-spectrum CBD products for therapeutic applications from a scientific perspective. Its products come from the farm rather than from a lab, with the goal of achieving fewer side effects and more efficacy for patients. The company believes in published, science-based trials and research with regard to its CBD creations.

Simply Sonoma is a different kind of natural company. From seed to sale, it owns or contracts the organic grow, extraction and product formulation operations. The company has been developing products since 2017 based on scientific research and data and has several ready to launch. Its nationally available organic CBD products employ the company’s own proprietary formulations.

For example, the company’s nonalcoholic CBD Pinot Noir beverage uses grapes specially grown for Simply Sonoma and is infused with CBD from the company’s farm. The company expects to generate revenue through national sales of its CBD products via e-commerce, as well as through a variety of chain stores, pharmacies and small businesses throughout the U.S.

Products

Simply Sonoma has three tiers of products:

1. Organic CBD formulations for consumer medicinal applications.
2. Organic whole plant extracts of CBD and cannabinoids – providing the whole plant synergistic effect and giving a dose response for a variety of diseases.
3. Organic extracts paired with traditional over-the-counter functionality, delivering all the benefits of traditional OTC products but the bulk product is organic and plant derived for a more natural healthy approach, minimizing synthetic chemical components and adverse effects.

An example of tier three would be the company’s sleep aid. Current over-the-counter and prescription sleep aids like benzodiazepines, antihistamines and sleeping pills disrupt normal sleep brain patterns including REM, resulting in abnormal sleep. CBD and cannabinoids have efficacy as sleep aids and do not disrupt the normal sleep cycle.

Depending on the application, the company’s products can be delivered via:

1. Teas
2. Pills
3. Inhalers
4. Skin patches
5. Gummies
6. Tablets
7. Sublingual sprays
8. Tinctures
9. Topicals
10. Juices

Simply Sonoma has partnered with Sonoma Biologics, a premium hemp cultivator that has completed considerable research on the scientific nature of hemp and cannabis, to grow proprietary medicinal strains specifically for the company. Additionally, Simply Sonoma is working with Organic Vineyards on the company’s antioxidant, alcohol free, CBD wine product, as well as its low carb, low sugar Pinot Noir CBD sparkling product. All partner companies are environmentally conscious, solar first and organic-equivalent. Simply Sonoma’s CBD products will contain less than 0.3% of THC.

Market Outlook

Simply Sonoma competes with numerous nondescript CBD companies in the market today. The company feels its major competitive advantage is its scientific staff and product formulation expertise. Simply Sonoma products are focused on four specific health, beauty and lifestyle markets, including sleep aids, joint pain, probiotics and skin health. The Market Data Forecast valued the global sleep aid market at an estimated $175 billion in 2020. The joint pain and anti-inflammatory market is forecast to be worth approximately $41 billion in 2026 by Persistence Market Research. The market for gut health and probiotic products is expected to hit $65 billion by 2023, according to Global Market Insights. Allied Market Research valued the global beauty and skin product market at $380 billion in 2019.

Management Team

Simply Sonoma’s dynamic team has a unique combination of experience that positions them well with the company’s wellness and lifestyle products in the CBD space.

Margaret C. Caracciolo is the CEO of Simply Sonoma. She has spent most of her career in biotechnology, in the areas of clinical research and financials.

She has spent the last 10 years co-managing her family’s farm and vineyard and creating wines and other products from the farm’s organic gardens.

Angela Miller is Vice President of Operations at Simply Sonoma. She has extensive experience in cross line-of-business, global project management, and analysis from inception to post-go-live.

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Emaginos Inc..

• Forum features inspiring people who, through adversity, grit and persistence, are forging a path to being the best version of themselves
• Jones lives by a personal mantra: When I wake up every morning, I have two goals: learn something and make the world a better place
• Emaginos is committed to creating a learning environment that is personal and that provides students with a foundation of basic skills

Emaginos Inc. president Allan Jones was the featured guest on “Optimal Self Conversations,” an inspirational forum hosted by three-sport professional athlete and productivity coach Jeremy Herider (https://ibn.fm/wvC9A). The forum is designed to be a valuable resource that features interviews with inspiring people who, through adversity, grit and persistence, are forging a path to being the best version of themselves. Emaginos Inc. is raising capital from the general investing public under provisions of Regulation A and is seeking $3 million to implement its proven, patent-pending K-12 education system and transform the nation’s educational system (please see website if interested in investing). 

Emaginos Inc. is working to improve the education system of the United States through a commitment to integrated, proven best practices. Opposed to replacing public schools with charter schools, Emaginos believes in restoring neighborhood schools and having them serve as focal points of their communities.

Through the company’s model, one school in a district is transformed into a charter. This allows the district to write a separate contract for the teachers in the pilot school. The pilot school incorporates the new model into the community and proves the concept. The lessons learned from this charter are then used to transition the model to the other public schools, adapting them to the model while remaining public.

To achieve this transformation, Emaginos provides the schools with a wealth of resources ranging from technology infrastructure to curriculum training. The schools transformed by the model operate with economic efficiencies squarely in mind, resulting in a better educational experience for the same or lower overall cost.

The company is a REG-A+ Tier 2 public company raising capital for future development and deployment of its transformational public-school model, with the goal of changing the way public schools approach learning.

Emaginos was founded in 2008.

Program Elements

The Emaginos program provides various elements aimed at making the model successful, including:

• Learning Environment: Integrated and proven best practices, multi-level classrooms, diverse small group settings, magnet programs, etc.
• Curriculum: Education customized for individuals, no textbooks, observational assessment rubrics, no more teaching to the test, STEM integration, etc.
• School Calendar: Longer school day, longer school year, internships, college courses, etc.
• Staffing: Teacher mentoring, highly qualified teachers, teacher pay, union support, etc.
• Technology: Technology integration, videoconferencing and telepresence, administrative software, student technical support, etc.
• Wellness and Primary Health Care: Telemedicine, primary health care, wellness simulations, etc.
• Scalable and Transformational: Operates within existing budgets, accountability, research center, national leadership, etc.
• Additional Benefits: Grassroots, unanimity planning, dropout prevention, attendance, etc.

Emaginos Investment Model

Emaginos is focused on changing the way that public school transformation is approached. While many in the industry are in favor of the transition to charters or homeschooling, the company believes in keeping the same buildings and teachers while implementing new proven best practices within the existing budget.

Some key figures relating to the public school system include:

• There are 98,328 public K-12 schools.
• Total public-school enrollment exceeds 50 million.
• The public school system employs more than 3.1 million teachers.
• Total funding of public education amounts to roughly $597.5 billion, with federal funding accounting for 12.7%, state funding accounting for 43.5% and local funding accounting for 43.8% of the total.

The Emaginos model is not a one-time product sale; it is a subscription service that provides the necessary resources for the public school to transition from traditional “teaching and testing” models to the “learning and doing” model.

The Cost of the Emaginos Model

Emaginos’ start-up costs are significant as it builds the EdManage platform and its student centered, multidisciplinary, textbook-free, learning-team, project-based curriculum. However, after the platform and curriculum are built, the company expects to incur relatively small incremental costs to sell, deliver and support the program.

Even though districts are required to pay for the model and annual subscription, overall, they are expected to come out even or on top in terms of expenditure. With no more textbooks and no need for additional technology, schools can go without extra support staffing, allowing for additional cost savings.

Management Team

Dr. Keith Larick is the man who developed the Emaginos plan. As a superintendent within the Tracy Unified School District (TUSD) 20 years ago, Dr. Larick chose three educators with whom to work, with the goal of changing education. He challenged these educators to take a clean slate approach to design the optimal K-12 education program. Using proven student-centered and organizational best practices, the result was the creation of three charter schools proving the new K-12 model.

Allan Jones is the President of Emaginos Inc. He has spent over 40 years working in and around education. He was a classroom teacher, district chief information and technology officer in the public school system, and taught college courses for teachers. Mr. Jones also served as a school board member. He co-founded an online high school, consulting with school districts on technology planning, and worked for Digital Equipment Corporation’s corporate research division. While there, he created programs to identify and transfer ideas from leading universities into the company. After all those years of seeing the good, bad, and ugly within the American public school system, he joined Dr. Larick to transform America’s schools into centers of discovery and innovation.

The late Jack Taub was the Chief Visionary of Emaginos Inc. He was from Brooklyn, New York, and dropped out of school to pursue a passion for stamp collecting. He and his brother Bert, both respected philatelists, developed a successful stamp selling business. At one time, they even had an exclusive contract with the USPS, selling their stamp-collecting materials across the country. From those earnings, the brothers invested in what would be considered one of the first social networking applications – though the term didn’t exist yet. Neither brother had a good experience within the K-12 school system, so they turned their sights on fixing it. They teamed up with Dr. Larick to design new models for education adhering to the idea that all students can succeed in education.

Sharing Services Global Corporation (SHRG)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Sharing Services Global Corporation (SHRG).

Sharing Services Global (OTCQB: SHRG) has provided $1.4 million in funding to Stemtech Corporation (OTCQB: GNTW), an innovative nutraceutical company and a pioneer in the field of stem cell nutrition. Included in the transaction is the announcement that SHRG CEO John “JT” Thatch will be named a member of the Stemtech Corporation board of directors. A leading development company and service provider in the direct-to-consumer space with more than $100 million in annual revenues, SHRG looks for opportunities to leverage the capabilities and expertise of various companies that market and sell products direct to the consumer. To view the full press release, visit https://ibn.fm/MW1iP

Sharing Services Global Corporation (SHRG), formerly Sharing Services Inc., is a diversified company dedicated to maximizing shareholder value, operating through two primary subsidiaries: Elepreneurs Holdings, a direct-selling company, and Elevacity Holdings, a products company. Headquartered in Plano, Texas, SHRG markets and distributes Elevate-branded health and wellness products through an independent sales force of distributors called Elepreneurs.

Proprietary Products

SHRG’s current exclusive Elevate product offerings are marketed under the Elevacity brand, so named to signify the company’s commitment to elevating lives.

The Elevate health and wellness product line consists of nutraceutical products that SHRG refers to as D.O.S.E., which stands for dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins – all of which are key hormones proven to promote happiness and well-being.

Elevacity brand products are carefully formulated, chosen and designed to support a single objective: elevate the happiness and well-being of the consumer.

Global Network of Elepreneurs

Elevacity products are shared and sold by a growing international network of home-based entrepreneurs, called Elepreneurs, operated by Elepreneurs Holdings. This SHRG subsidiary provides basic and advanced programs for both new and experienced entrepreneurs who are focusing on their direct-sales careers.

SHRG’s high-performing independent sales force follows the company’s Blue Ocean selling strategy, an approach that encourages individuals to seek new markets, lead, and to “stop competing and start creating.” The Blue Ocean strategy is based on the book, “Blue Ocean Strategy,” written by Professor Renée Mauborgne, who notes that “the lesson here is that the best defense is offense, and the best offense… is to make a blue ocean shift and create your own blue ocean.”

Following this selling strategy, SHRG’s Elepreneurs are taught that, rather than competing directly in a competitive, direct-selling market, they should focus on making competitors irrelevant and succeeding in an uncontested marketplace.

In addition, SHRG’s Elepreneurs use the interactive, video-based VERB sales-marketing platform developed by Verb Technology Company Inc. The app utilizes proprietary interactive video data collection and analysis technology and provides next-generation customer relationship management, lead generation, and video marketing software applications.

Continued Momentum as Industry Leader

These selling strategies have resulted in sharp and consistent revenue gains. In the company’s 10-Q filed with the SEC for the three months ended Oct. 31, 2019, SHRG reported sales of $38.8 million for fiscal Q2 2019, an increase of 116% over sales of $17.9 million reported for the comparable quarter of 2018. Consolidated gross profit jumped by $16.2 million to $27.4 million for the same period compared to Q2 2018.

SHRG’s consolidated operating earnings were $3.9 million in the fiscal quarter ended Oct. 31, 2019, compared to $866,802 for the comparable period the prior year. Consolidated gross margin also grew 70.9% for the three months ended Oct. 31, 2019, compared to 62.2% the prior year.

These numbers are continuing a trend established over the past two years. In fiscal Q1 2019, SHRG achieved revenues of $35.4 million, more than double that of the comparable period in 2018. Even earlier, the company reported sales of $85.9 million for fiscal year ended April 30, 2019. This represents a nine-fold increase, or $77.5 million jump, over the company’s revenues of $8.4 million the prior year.

These numbers bring SHRG’s sales revenues since December 2017 — when the company’s Elevate product line was released — to an impressive cumulative total of $169 million.

Preparing for Success

SHRG is well prepared to continue and accommodate for this growth. The company recently expanded its corporate footprint by moving to a 10,000-square-foot facility in Plano, Texas, that offers ample room to expand as the company grows and flourish. The larger corporate locale provides space for a growing customer service department, product fulfillment, opportunity and training rooms, as well as a video production suite.

In addition, the company has a seasoned, expert leadership team in place, led by John “JT” Thatch. Thatch was appointed president and CEO of SHRG in March 2018, bringing to the company his expertise obtained from successfully starting, owning and operating several businesses in various industries. His experience with corporate growth, acquisitions, financing and negotiation in fast-paced and flexible environments will significantly assist SHRG as the company aims to expand and increase revenues.
