Coyuchi Inc.

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Coyuchi Inc.

A survey that focused on institutional investors in Canada has determined that environmental, social and governance (ESG) has gone mainstream, with increasingly numbers of companies carrying out double-materiality evaluations. The survey found that investors are not only considering ESG factors in their investment evaluations but also expanding to the broader positive/negative impacts of their investments. This comes amid indications from the country's Environment and Climate Change Ministry that the nation will have a transition taxonomy by Dec. 31, 2024. This latest survey was conducted by Millani, which offers corporate sustainability advisory and responsible investing services. Investigators began their study by collecting responses from 37 asset managers and owners who represent roughly $3.8 trillion of assets under management. The United Kingdom's Sustainability Disclosure Requirements also mandates financial institutions and companies to disclose their impact on the society and environment, be it negative or positive. Even with the pushback and polarization surrounding ESG in the U.S., many enterprises such as Coyuchi Inc. appear focused on incorporating ESG principles in every aspect of their operations.

Coyuchi is the gold standard in sustainable luxury home goods. The company offers sustainably produced luxury organic bedding, sheets, towels, apparel, and other home goods for the environmentally conscious home. With a timeless, coastal-inspired aesthetic, Coyuchi uses only 100% organic cotton materials to manufacture all of its textiles.

The Company was built upon four foundational pillars: protect the planet, innovate circular design, live sustainably, and enrich the community. These guiding principles have proven an effective market strategy. In 2021, Coyuchi earned $33.3 million in net sales, amounting to 26% YoY growth (the industry average is only 5%). It also experienced 2x customer growth to 200,000 active customers, averaging a 35% customer repeat purchase rate.

With a seasoned leadership team, a robust e-commerce shopping experience, and a healthy customer base that drives the fast-growing organic luxury market, Coyuchi is prepared to propel a new phase of growth as the rest of the world finally awakens to sustainability at scale.

A Lucrative Market Ripe for the Taking

The global market for organic bedding, which was estimated at $814.3 million in 2020, is projected to reach $1.1 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 4.9% over that period, according to Research and Markets. More specifically, the domestic organic bedding market is estimated at $240.1 million in 2020, according to Statista. Overall, the U.S. market for home textiles is currently valued at $25 billion annually, and, with a forecast annual growth rate of 5%, it is expected to reach $30 billion by the end of 2025.

Grand View Research reported in 2020 that shifting consumer preference toward high-end lifestyle products is a key factor driving the growth of the organic bedding market. Seventy-four percent of consumers are willing to pay more for sustainable products – a consumer preference that has steadily increased over the last few decades.

A significant milestone that promises to change technology in quantum computing has been reached. For the first time in the history of computers, a quantum computer has fixed its own errors mid-calculation. Quantum error correction, as scientists are calling it, is a process that makes quantum computers more reliable. It also has the potential to pave the way for these computers to solve problems that are a challenge for advanced classical computers. So why does error correction matter? Well, Quantum computers are not like ordinary laptops or even phones. These machines perform calculations using quantum bits, or qubits, which harness the strange and powerful laws of quantum physics. The catch? Qubits are notoriously sensitive and can cause massive errors even when faced with the slightest disturbances. If quantum computers are to solve incredibly complex problems, there must be error correction. Although these strides are encouraging, the end game is clear: a universal quantum computer that can process any calculation however complicated. Scientists are working on this, and when they figure it out, quantum computers will be able to help us solve some of the largest problems humanity is facing today. Other quantum computing companies such as D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) are coming up with their own innovations that are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in quantum computing.

CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) is a clinical stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system.

The company was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Organ Targeted Therapeutics

The company’s lead drug candidate, Berubicin, is proposed for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. Berubicin also has potential to treat other central nervous system malignancies. Based on limited clinical data, Berubicin appears to be the first anthracycline to cross the blood brain barrier in the adult brain, and it was the subject of a successful Phase 1 study which found the MDT and produced efficacy data as well.

CNS holds a worldwide exclusive license to the Berubicin chemical compound. The company has acquired all requisite data and know-how from Reata Pharmaceuticals Inc. related to a completed Phase I clinical trial of Berubicin in malignant brain tumors. In this trial, 44% of patients experienced a statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit. In 2017, CNS entered into a collaboration and asset purchase agreement with Reata.

CNS intends to explore the potential of Berubicin to treat other diseases, including pancreatic and ovarian cancers and lymphoma. The company is also examining plans to develop combination therapies that include Berubicin.

CNS estimates that more than $25 million in private capital and grants were invested in Berubicin prior to the company’s $9.8 million IPO in November 2019.

CNS intends to submit an IND for Berubicin during the fourth quarter of 2020 and expects to commence a Phase II clinical trial of Berubicin for the treatment of GBM in the U.S. in Q1 2021. A sub-licensee partner was awarded a $6 million EU/Polish National Center for Research and Development grant to undertake a Phase II trial of Berubicin in adults and a first-ever Phase I trial in pediatric GBM patients in Poland in 2021.

The company’s second drug candidate, WP1244, is a novel DNA binding agent licensed from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. In preclinical studies, WP1244 proved to be 500-times more potent than the chemotherapeutic agent, daunorubicin, in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. The company has entered into a sponsored research agreement with the MD Anderson Cancer Center to further the development of WP1244.

CNS Pharmaceuticals recently engaged U.S.-based Pharmaceutics International Inc. and Italian BSP Pharmaceuticals SpA for the production of the Berubicin drug product. The company has implemented a dual-track manufacturing strategy to mitigate COVID-19-related risks, diversify its supply chain and provide for localized availability of Berubicin. CNS has already completed synthesis of Berubicin’s active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and has shipped the API to both manufacturers in order to prepare an injectable form of Berubicin for clinical use.

Global Brain Tumor Therapeutics Market

The high recurrence rate of malignant brain tumors is due to reappearance of focal masses, indicating that a sub-population of tumor cells in these cancers may be insensitive to current therapies and may be responsible for reinitiating tumor growth. This necessitates the development of newer drugs in the market that demonstrate greater efficacy in treating such aggressive cancers.

A global increase in neurological disorders has placed increased attention on cancers of the brain over the past decade. Neurological disorders are becoming one of the most prevalent types of disorders, due to longer life expectancy, greater exposure to infection and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. Because few treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain exist, costs are high and have acted as a restraint for the brain tumor therapeutics market.

Despite progress in surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapeutic strategies, effective treatments for brain cancer are limited by a lack of specific therapies for the brain and the difficulty in transporting therapeutic compounds across the blood brain barrier. Therefore, there is a significant need for novel and effective therapeutic drugs and strategies that prolong survival and improve quality of life for brain tumor patients.

Several companies are making significant investments into R&D, which is expected to bring more treatment options to the market in the near future. Industry reports consistently project continued growth in the market.

One report estimates that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach a valuation of $2.74 billion in 2023, with the market expected to register a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023. Another report projects that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach $3.4 billion by 2025, up from $2.25 billion in 2019 (http://nnw.fm/eDUjp).

Dynasty Gold Corp. (TSX.V: DYG) (OTC: DGDCF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Dynasty Gold Corp. (TSX.V: DYG) (OTC: DGDCF).

Dynasty Gold (TSX.V: DYG) (FSE: D5G1) (OTC: DGDCF), a Canadian mineral exploration company, today announced assay results for the first phase of the 2024 drill program at its Thundercloud property. The program comprises 2,198 meters. According to the announcement, drilling successfully intersected high-grade gold mineralization of 5.13 g/t Au over 18 meters from 97.5m to 115.5m, including 9.3 g/t Au over 4.5 meters and numerous 5 to 8+ g/t Au over 1.5m in drillhole TC24-02 (30 meters additional assay results are pending). In addition, drilling intersected broad zones of lower grade mineralization from 25 meters below surface with intercepts between 50 and 136 meters in length for grades up to 1.73 g/t Au.

"Since our first drill program on Thundercloud in 2022, July of 2024 drilling continued to intersect broad zones of near-surface mineralization with extensive high-grade intervals in most holes. This demonstrates the richness of the gold system on the property for potentially high-grade and bulk-tonnage mineralization," commented Ivy Chong, President and CEO. "During the fall exploration program, we will continue to drill to expand Pelham Resource along strike and at depth, simultaneously expand our footprint to the remaining untested 90% of the property."

Dynasty Gold Corp. (TSX.V: DYG) (OTC: DGDCF) is rapidly emerging as a notable player in the gold sector. With its impressive portfolio of high-potential projects and recent drilling results, Dynasty Gold is capturing the attention of investors and industry analysts alike. As the company continues to advance its exploration efforts, the potential for substantial gains becomes increasingly evident.

Many respected analysts agree that gold is in the early stages of a new commodities supercycle, where multiple forces like inflation, infrastructure spending, and global demand are driving the price surge. The question is, ‘how to profit from it’.

Dynasty Gold’s recent drilling campaign at its flagship Thundercloud project in Ontario, Canada, has delivered results that are likely to reshape expectations and could significantly impact the company’s fortunes. The latest drilling assays from the project reveal high-grade gold mineralization, confirming the project’s potential for substantial resource development.

With high-quality North American assets, renowned leadership and a miniscule market cap, Dynasty Gold looks perfectly positioned to capitalize on any potential updraft in prices and potentially deliver outsized returns. In fact, if the next batch of drill holes (expected within weeks) is successful in expanding the economics of the resource, DYG could easily outperform the market and lead the pack to the upside.

There are only about 61 million Dynasty shares issued and outstanding, with roughly 40% owned by insiders and long-term shareholders. It’s important to note that Rob McEwen owns 9.7%. A mining legend, McEwen founded Goldcorp and increased the company’s market cap 160X – from $50M to over $8B. He must see value in Dynasty Gold, too. Around 50% of outstanding shares are held by retail investors, and any positive news on top of surging global demand could catapult the stock.

High-Grade Deposits, 100% Owned

The Thundercloud Property

The Thundercloud property is situated in the prolific Archean Manitou-Stormy Lakes greenstone belt in Western Ontario, which has a geological setting similar to the Abitibi belt but is much less thoroughly explored. The region contains numerous gold showings, along with several deposits and historic producers. Initial results suggest excellent potential for bulk-tonnage orogenic gold mineralization, with the possibility of high-grade mineralization. In recent years, nearly 30 million ounces of gold have been discovered in the area.

Dynasty Gold’s Thundercloud project is strategically located within one of Canada’s most prodigious gold-producing regions. Ontario is renowned for its rich mineral deposits and supportive mining infrastructure, providing a favorable environment for exploration and development. The Thundercloud property covers approximately 5,560 acres and is located 47 kilometers southeast of Dryden, Ontario. It is accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy 17). Dryden, a resource-based town, offers essential infrastructure for mining operations.

Dynasty recently completed Phase 1 of its 2024 Drill Program at its Thundercloud property, announcing results in an August press release.

Ivy Chong, President and CEO, commented, “Dynasty completed Phase 1 of the 4,000 meters planned drilling, consisting of 11 holes for a total of 2,198 meters. The eight holes within the Pelham Zone all intersected intervals from 10+ to 70 meters of strong pyrite veinlets and disseminations similar to that associated with high-grade mineralization in the previous two years of grades up to 8.4 g/t gold over 73.5m including 151.7 g/t gold over 3.0m. We look forward to receiving the assay results from Phase 1 drilling within the next several weeks and will re-commence drilling in early September, once these results have been analyzed and an additional 10 or more drill holes sited.”

The recent drilling results at Thundercloud have substantial implications for the project’s future. High-grade gold intercepts are indicative of a robust mineralized system, which could lead to a significant increase in the project’s resource estimate. Despite this high-grade, the company’s drill holes are comparatively shallow (less than 250 meters in length). Many similar projects are required to drill as deep as 700+ meters to obtain grades similar to Dynasty’s recent results. This, in turn, enhances the project’s attractiveness to major mining companies and institutional investors.

The impressive drilling results from Dynasty’s Canadian project will be followed by more drilling with more news expected in the next few weeks. Roughly 90% of the project has thus far seen limited drilling and therefore represents untested potential. Positive assay results often generate increased interest and confidence as the market reacts to the potential for significant resource discoveries.

The Golden Repeat Property

Located on the north slope of the Midas Trough, along the Carlin Trend within the Northern Nevada Rift, the Golden Repeat gold property comprises 49 contiguous mining claims totaling approximately 968 acres. These claims share geological similarities with gold properties in the well-known Midas Gold Camp.

Hecla Mining Company’s Midas Mine is located 18 kilometers east of the property, with other major Carlin-style gold mines, including Nevada Gold Ventures LLC’s Getchell-Twin Creeks-Turquoise Ridge mines (15 kilometers southwest) and its Goldstrike Mine complex (50 kilometers southeast) nearby.

The property is easily accessible from Interstate 80, with excellent local mining infrastructure. Gold Fields and Romarco Minerals briefly drilled the property in the 1990s, but a large portion remains unexplored.

Market Opportunity

In 2023, the World Gold Council estimated the physical financial gold market – comprising bars, coins, gold ETFs, and central bank reserves – was valued at nearly $5 trillion.

This historical scarcity and relatively slow rate of new production, compared to other commodities, are key reasons gold has retained its value for millennia. In September 2024, the spot price of gold was quoted at just over $2,497 per ounce.

Dynasty Gold’s strategic focus on expanding its resource base and advancing its exploration efforts positions it well for future success. The company’s ongoing drilling programs are designed to further delineate and expand the high-grade zones identified, which could lead to a substantial resource upgrade and increased project valuation.

Additionally, the potential for resource expansion and the attractiveness of Dynasty Gold’s project in a top-tier mining jurisdiction such as Ontario could attract interest from strategic partners or acquisition targets. Options include both smaller scale high-grade production in the near term or bulk tonnage production in the years ahead. Such developments would provide additional opportunities for capital infusion and project acceleration, further supporting a positive trajectory for the stock price.

Management Team

Ivy Chong has served as CEO of Dynasty Gold since 2008. With over two decades of experience in the mining and oil & gas industries, she has negotiated several option and joint venture agreements with major companies such as Teck, AngloGold Ashanti, Azimut, and Avocet Mining. She has assisted numerous companies with IPOs and raised capital for resource firms across Asia, Europe, and North America. Before entering the resource industry, she worked at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Deloitte and Touche LLP.

Larry Kornze, VP of Exploration and Director at Dynasty Gold, brings over 30 years of international gold exploration experience to the company. He is credited with discovering Barrick’s 40-million-ounce gold deposit at the Betze Mine on the Carlin Trend in Nevada during the late 1980s. Kornze was also involved in the discovery of other significant deposits in Nevada, including Miekle, Deepstar, Screamer, and Rodeo. He has held positions with Newmont and Getty Mining in North America and serves on the boards of several public gold exploration companies.

PaxMedica Inc. (NASDAQ: PXMD)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight PaxMedica Inc. (NASDAQ: PXMD).

Sleep disorders are often caused by hypermotor restlessness, restless leg syndrome, hyperarousability, periodic limb movements in sleep and restless sleep disorder. Now, a new study has considered the role iron levels play in causing these disorders. Iron is usually found in microglia, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes and neurons. This element is needed to help synthesize neurotransmitters that regulate the wake/sleep cycle. The study used data gathered from structured intake forms and clinical evaluations conducted at the Child & Adolescent Psychiatry division of the Sleep/Wake-Behavior clinic in BC Children's Hospital. Data on parental history of iron deficiency, recent iron status and covariate factors such as medications and comorbidities was recorded. The team published its findings in the "Nutrients" journal. The researchers involved include David Wensley, Osman S. Ipsiroglu, Alexandra L. Wagner, Parveer K. Pandher, Anamaria Richardson, Olivia Hill, Marion Suzanne Lewis, Scout McWilliams, Calvin Kuo, Melissa Braschel, Elizabeth Keys, Robin Friedlander and Katherine Edwards. As companies such as PaxMedica Inc. (OTC: PXMD) continue their efforts to develop treatments targeting autism, it is likely that more insights into the factors behind the onset of the symptoms that patients manifest will become known.

PaxMedica Inc. (NASDAQ: PXMD) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on the development of novel anti-purinergic therapies (APTs) for the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and other serious conditions with intractable neurologic symptoms.

The company’s lead programs are focused on ASD, for which there are currently no approved pharmacologic treatments that target its cause and symptoms. Currently used treatments only address the symptoms of the condition, rather than targeting the pathophysiology itself.

PaxMedica is on a promising path to address these unmet medical needs, bringing hope to millions. Anti-purinergic therapies target the excess production of purines in cells. An overexpression of purines can offset homeostasis and result in an overproduction of cellular adenosine triphosphate, the main energy molecule in all living cells.

The company is headquartered in Tarrytown, New York.

Product Pipeline

PaxMedica is building a robust pipeline of products targeting ASD and related neurodevelopmental conditions. The company’s lead product in development may help eliminate, reduce or modulate some of the more troublesome aspects of ASD. That would open the potential for people with autism to integrate their behavior with others more successfully and improve their lives.

PaxMedica’s lead programs, PAX-101 and PAX-102, utilize the company’s proprietary source of suramin sodium, a broadly acting anti-purinergic therapy that has been known for over 100 years. Its current pipeline includes:

• PAX-101 (IV Suramin) for ASD – PAX-101 completed a Phase 2B study for ASD in 2021. Suramin is a broadly acting APT and has reported positive results from a dose range study. The results of PaxMedica’s Phase 2B study, which targeted 52 subjects across six sites in South Africa, were presented to AACAP in October 2021.
• PAX-102 (Intranasal Suramin) – PaxMedica has developed a proprietary intranasal formulation of suramin that is currently being evaluated in ASD and other neurodevelopmental conditions.
• PAX-101 for HAT – Given suramin’s historical use as a treatment for Human African Trypanosomiasis (HAT), or African Sleeping Sickness, the company is also developing PAX-101 as a treatment for HAT. PaxMedica’s most advanced program is the pursuit of PAX-101 for early-stage East African HAT.
• Selective APTs – PaxMedica has conducted several preclinical studies to evaluate other APTs that are more selective to specific purinergic receptors and may offer additional benefits over suramin.

Market Opportunity

According to a report by Fortune Business Insights, a leading global market research company, the global ASD therapeutics market was estimated at $1.93 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow from $2.01 billion in 2023 to $3.42 billion by 2030, a CAGR of 7.9% over the forecast period. As there is no current treatment for the core symptoms of autism, PaxMedica believes the addressable market for PAX-101, if approved, could greatly exceed these forecasts.

Autistic disorder, Asperger’s Syndrome and Pervasive Development Disorder are the three main types of ASD, affecting millions of people globally. A 2020 report by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention estimated that one in 36 children in the U.S. have been diagnosed with autism disorder.

Several factors are expected to contribute to market growth prospects. A growing prevalence of the condition globally and rising awareness coupled with available treatment options are key factors expected to drive ASD therapeutics market growth during the forecast period. Growing investment in R&D to find effective treatments is also expected to fuel global market growth.

With full 100% ownership of over 1,000 square kilometers of gold and copper projects strategically positioned in premier low-cost mining jurisdictions, Torr is poised for substantial returns across various promising regions.

The company’s extensive portfolio encompasses multiple district-scale projects, including the Filion Gold Project in northern Ontario, the Kolos Copper-Gold Project in south-central British Columbia, and the Latham Copper-Gold Project in northern British Columbia. These projects are all located in prolific mining regions with paved highway access, robust support infrastructure, and favorable geological conditions offering significant potential for new discoveries.

Headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Torr Metals is ideally situated to leverage its expertise and resources for continued exploration and growth.

Projects

Kolos Copper-Gold Project

Situated within British Columbia’s prime copper-producing belt, the 140-square-kilometer Kolos Copper-Gold Project exhibits Nicola Belt geology similar to notable porphyry mines, including Copper Mountain and Highland Valley, respectively situated 106 kilometers to the south and 30 kilometers to the northwest.

With field operations based in the nearby city of Merritt and year-round access provided via Highway 5, the Kolos Project showcases substantial discovery upside potential with five defined large-scale copper-gold-molybdenum anomalies untested by drilling.

Torr Metals’ primary focus lies in unlocking the potential for major new discoveries at the Kolos Copper-Gold Project, with recent surface geochemical results marking a significant milestone positioning the company as a new key player in the region.

Filion Gold Project

The 261-square-kilometer Filion Project is situated within a largely unexplored greenstone belt where gold was initially discovered in the 1930s. With a comparable geological setting to regional orogenic gold deposits and multiple newly identified and undrilled gold trends in surficial geochemistry, the Filion Project holds significant district-scale exploration promise.

The Filion Project benefits from unparalleled infrastructure access, with direct drive-on access from the Trans-Canada Highway, as well as a regional railway and power grid four kilometers to the south. Additionally, the nearby town of Kapuskasing, with a population of 8,300, provides essential support services.

This strategic positioning ensures the Filion Project’s viability for cost-effective, year-round operations in an area poised for untapped discovery potential.

Latham Copper-Gold Project

Situated in British Columbia’s renowned Golden Triangle, the Latham Project spans a vast 689-square-kilometer district, offering immense potential for multiple major discoveries. Accessible year-round via Highway 37, just 20 kilometers south of the town of Dease Lake, the site is strategically located amidst established mining infrastructure, including the active Red Chris mine to the southeast and upcoming major porphyry projects at Schaft Creek and Galore Creek along-trend to the southwest.

Highlighted by the Gnat Pass copper-gold porphyry deposit dating back to the 1960s, the Latham Project presents a compelling opportunity for significant expansion and potential discovery. A non-compliant indicated resource at the Gnat Pass deposit includes 33 million tonnes at 0.39% copper, open beyond 200 meters vertical depth, alongside six drill-ready kilometer-scale copper-gold exploration targets.

Moreover, the Latham Project’s appeal corresponds to the region being an attractive destination for major asset acquisitions and takeovers. Recent transactions within a 40-kilometer radius include Newmont’s 2021 acquisition of the Saddle North copper-gold porphyry deposit for $311 million and Newcrest’s investment in the Red Chris copper-gold porphyry deposit in 2019 for $804 million, underscoring industry acknowledgment of the region’s potential.

Market Opportunity

The World Gold Council, the industry association for the world’s gold producers, estimated in 2023 that 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.

Likewise, a report from Acumen Research and Consulting, a global provider of market intelligence and consulting services, valued the global copper market at $304.1 billion in 2022 and forecast that it will reach a market size of $496.8 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast period.

The report identifies a growing demand for copper in the electronics industry, as well as an expanding copper supply due to increasing production from existing mines and the rising number of mine development projects in developing nations, as driving factors in the rising value of the copper market.

Cybersecurity

In 2015, SuperCom identified the cybersecurity market as a fast-growing space with significant advantages due to synergistic technologies and a shared customer base with its e-Gov and IoT business units. Consequently, SuperCom strategically acquired Prevision Ltd., a company with a strong presence in the market and a broad range of competitive cybersecurity services.

During the first quarter of 2016, SuperCom acquired Safend Ltd., an international provider of cutting-edge endpoint data protection guarding against corporate data loss and theft through content discovery and inspection, encryption methodologies, and comprehensive device and port control.

Both acquisitions significantly expanded the breadth of the company’s global cybersecurity capabilities.
