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

New research from Northeastern University suggests that Europe's tough data privacy rules are slowing artificial intelligence development, though the effect differs widely from country to country. Luis Alfonso Dau, an associate professor at Northeastern, analyzed how the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has shaped AI innovation since its introduction in 2018. His study suggests that while the policy strengthened privacy protections, it also limited the pace of technological advancement across the region. Dau says the results hold lessons for both policymakers and business leaders. Companies can use these insights to identify markets more conducive to AI innovation, while governments may need to weigh the trade-offs between privacy and technological progress. While Dau emphasized that GDPR remains essential for protecting consumers, he cautioned that understanding its broader economic consequences is key. "We're not saying GDPR is harmful," he noted. "But understanding all of its consequences is essential for shaping smarter regulations that both safeguard citizens and encourage innovation." Businesses like D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) based in the U.S. hope that the regulatory climate remains conducive for tech innovation so that the country can sustain its dominance in the industry.

Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRB)

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

Nutriband (NASDAQ: NTRB) , a pharmaceutical company developing transdermal drug delivery technologies, was featured in a Channelchek report by Noble Capital Markets summarizing its presentation at Noble's Virtual Emerging Growth Conference. The Oct. 23, 2025, report highlights the company's lead product, AVERSA Fentanyl , an abuse-deterrent transdermal patch that releases aversive agents if tampered with, reducing the risk of opioid misuse. Market projections estimate annual sales of $200 million, potentially rising to $800 million if the FDA mandates abuse-deterrent patches across the category. Following completion of its manufacturing scale-up with Kindeva Drug Delivery, Nutriband expects to begin a human abuse liability study in early 2026 and file a New Drug Application later that year. Noble reaffirmed its Outperform rating and $15 price target, citing Nutriband's ability to fund R&D through its contract manufacturing division without shareholder dilution.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The company is headquartered in Orlando, Florida.

Products

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

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

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

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

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

Market Opportunity

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

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

Resource estimates include indicated resources of 52,000 tonnes grading 18.1 oz/t Ag, 3.26% Pb, and 3.4% Zn, and inferred resources of 161,000 tonnes grading 22.0 oz/t Ag, 2.48% Pb, and 3.86% Zn.

Dominion Creek Project (Au-Ag)

Nicola holds a 50% land ownership and 75% economic stake in this gold-silver project. Located 43 km from Wells, British Columbia, the site has returned grab samples averaging 61.3 g/t Au and 173.7 g/t Ag. The company has received its final permit and plans to extract a 10,000-tonne bulk sample in 2025, which will be processed at its Merritt Mill facility.

Operations

In addition to its exploration assets, Nicola Mining operates a suite of permitted industrial facilities in British Columbia that generate revenue and support the company’s broader development strategy. These assets form the backbone of Nicola’s self-sustaining business model.

Merritt Mill & Tailings Facility

Nicola owns and operates British Columbia’s only provincially permitted toll mill for gold and silver, a $30 million flotation facility located near Merritt. Gold production began in 2023. The facility is supported by long-term Milling and Profit Share Agreements with companies including Osisko Development Corporation, Blue Lagoon Resources, and Talisker Resources.

Sand & Gravel Pit / Rock Quarry / Ready-Mix Concrete Plant

Nicola also operates a permitted gravel pit (100,000 t/year), rock quarry (1,500 t/day), and is set to launch a ready-mix cement plant in Q2 2025. These operations, run in partnership with local First Nations, generate stable cash flow to support exploration efforts.

Market Opportunity

Nicola Mining is uniquely positioned in southern British Columbia, a jurisdiction recognized for its mining-friendly policies, skilled labor force, and robust infrastructure. The New Craigmont Project is geologically situated within the Guichon Creek Batholith, a region hosting some of Canada’s largest copper mines, including Highland Valley. Exploration data from 2023 and 2024 support the potential presence of both skarn and porphyry systems, increasing the strategic value of Nicola’s holdings.

The company’s other assets, including Treasure Mountain and Dominion Creek, are located in historically productive areas with high-grade mineralization and established access routes. Dominion Creek, in particular, sits atop the Isaac Lake Fault system—identified in British Columbia’s RGS (Regional Geochemical Survey) as a highly anomalous gold-silver corridor. Nicola’s integrated production model enables it to generate revenue while advancing these exploration programs without excessive dilution, providing a distinct advantage in a volatile commodities market.

Leadership Team

Peter Espig, Chief Executive Officer & Director, is a former diamond driller who spearheaded Nicola through a restructuring into its recent growth. He brings over $2 billion in private equity transaction experience, is a pioneer of SPACs, and has held senior positions at Goldman Sachs Japan and Olympus Capital.

Will Whitty, VP of Exploration, brings to the company over 15 years of experience in copper and gold exploration. He previously worked at Freeport-McMoRan and Nevada Gold Mines. He holds a master’s degree from the Mineral Deposit Research Unit (MDRU) at the University of British Columbia.

Bill Cawker, Corporate Development, manages investor relations, communications, and corporate governance. He joined Nicola in 2023 and brings extensive small-cap public markets experience, along with a degree in economics from the University of British Columbia.

Sam Wong, Chief Financial Officer, is a CPA with over 18 years of experience in the mining sector. He previously held executive roles at several publicly listed resource companies. He began his career at Deloitte LLP in Vancouver.

Bollinger Innovations, Inc. (NASDAQ: BINI)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Bollinger Innovations, Inc. (NASDAQ: BINI).

Mega batteries are playing a critical role in the global transition from fossil fuels to renewable alternatives. While green energy sources are undoubtedly cleaner than fossil fuels such as oil and natural gas, they are plagued by one major issue that could impact their rollout: intermittency. Unlike fossil fuels, which can generate energy at any time at very high efficiency, renewables are beholden to external factors such as weather and time, which determine the amount of clean energy they can generate. For instance, solar energy projects can only generate electricity during the day and reach peak production during a small window of time, while wind projects require windy weather to function efficiently. The result is peaks where renewable energy projects generate lots of clean energy, followed by lows where they generate little to no energy. Furthermore, a sustained drop in lithium-ion battery prices over the past decade and a half means that megabatteries are becoming an increasingly cost-effective means of addressing the intermittency issues endemic to clean energy. Major markets like the U.S., China, Europe, and Asia will most likely continue to incorporate megabatteries into their green energy pipelines as the green transition accelerates. As battery technology evolves to serve the renewable energy industry, other related technologies like the electric vehicles from manufacturers like Bollinger Innovations, Inc. (OTC: BINI) could also benefit from those improvements by incorporating innovative batteries into their products.
