Brera Holdings PLC (NASDAQ: BREA)

Brera Holdings PLC (NASDAQ: BREA) is an Ireland-based international holding company pioneering multi-club ownership ("MCO") in global football. As the first publicly traded MCO on Nasdaq, Brera democratizes access to professional sports ownership, giving retail and institutional investors the ability to participate in sports as an asset class.

Brera is positioned within an expanding asset class where football franchises are increasingly treated as financial investments, highlighting football's resilience as an asset class. The Ross-Arctos Sports Franchise Index, which tracks franchise valuations across major sports, has returned around 13% annually since 1960, outpacing equities and other traditional benchmarks. Despite downturns such as the early 2000s technology correction and the 2008 financial crisis, football revenues from broadcasting and sponsorships held steady.

Since its NASDAQ listing in 2023, Brera has grown a portfolio of men's and women's teams in Italy, North Macedonia, Mozambique, and Mongolia. The strategy emphasizes acquiring undervalued clubs with strong community ties and youth systems, while using centralized oversight to improve efficiency and commercial returns.

In June 2025, Brera completed its largest deal to date, acquiring a 52% stake in Italian Serie B club S.S. Juve Stabia. The EUR 10 million transaction, financed through a mix of cash, shares, and incentives, marked Brera as one of only two MCO operators in Italy's second division. Juve Stabia's valuation rose 245 percent, to $32.3 million, after its semifinal run into the Serie A promotion playoffs following a fifth-place finish in the 2024/25 regular season, supporting the investment case for Brera's turnaround model.

Brera also owns Brera Strumica in North Macedonia, a club with access to UEFA Europa and Conference League qualification rounds, and Brera Tchumene in Mozambique, promoted to the top division in 2024. In Asia, Brera manages Brera Ilch FC in Mongolia, providing entry to a fast-growing football ecosystem.

Revenue comes from media rights distributions, tournament prize money, sponsorships, player transfers, and consulting services. The Company also invests in academies and grassroots programs, aiming to strengthen talent pipelines and expand fan bases. This offers both operating synergies and longer-term monetization opportunities. Player development across clubs can feed into higher-value transfers, while shared branding and sponsorship activation allow scale efficiencies.

A notable feature of Brera is its insider ownership. Around 26% of shares are held by management and core investors, creating a strong alignment of incentives with outside shareholders, and a key factor underpinning confidence in the company's execution.

Football's broader market context also supports the thesis. Global sports franchise ownership is estimated at $417 billion and projected to grow at more than 8% annually through 2030. Within that, multi-club ownership has gained traction, with nearly 200 clubs worldwide now part of MCO structures.

Headquartered in Dublin, with offices in Milan, Brera is committed to building a socially impactful, globally diversified portfolio of football clubs that deliver both competitive success and long-term shareholder value.

Sporting Assets

Brera's portfolio currently spans clubs in Italy, North Macedonia, Mongolia, and Mozambique, reflecting its strategy of acquiring undervalued teams and enhancing their performance through disciplined management and operational improvements.

SS Juve Stabia (Italy)

Acquired in June 2025 through a 52% controlling stake, Juve Stabia is known as "The Other Team of Naples" and is Brera's flagship asset. Founded in 1907, the historic club has competed in five Serie B and 40 Serie C campaigns and represents the passion of Castellammare di Stabia, near Naples, Amalfi, and Pompei.

During the 2024–25 season, Juve Stabia finished 5th in Serie B and advanced to the promotion playoff semifinals. Juve Stabia also ranked as the most financially efficient club in the league, achieving top performance despite one of the lowest wage bills.

Brera plans to leverage Juve Stabia's strong fan base, competitive success, and strategic location to expand sponsorships, media partnerships, and stadium infrastructure, positioning the club for long-term growth and potential Serie A promotion.

Other Portfolio Assets

• Brera Strumica FC and WFC Brera Tiverija (North Macedonia) – Acquired in 2023, Brera Strumica competes in the North Macedonian First League and builds on the legacy of football legend Goran Pandev. In 2024, Brera launched WFC Brera Tiverija, the first women's football club in North Macedonia organized as a joint-stock company. The women's team is on track to qualify for the UEFA Women's Champions League after leading the first half of the 2024/25 season.
• Brera Ilch FC (Mongolia) – Acquired in 2023, Brera Ilch competes in the Mongolian National Premier League. The club is a cornerstone of Brera's Asia strategy, driving commercial expansion, sponsorship opportunities, and regional brand growth.
• Brera Tchumene FC (Mozambique) – Established in 2023, Brera Tchumene quickly earned promotion to Mocambola, Mozambique's First Division. The club fields both men's and women's teams, but geopolitical instability has temporarily paused competition, with players affiliating with Black Bulls.
• Brera Milano (Italy) – Founded in 2000 and known as "The Third Team of Milan," Brera Milano is the company's community-centric flagship club. The semi-professional team emphasizes social impact, inclusivity, and sustainability initiatives.

Market Opportunity

A report from IMARC Group shows the international football market generated about $3.3 billion in 2023, with projections to reach $4.6 billion by 2032 at a 3.6% CAGR. Growth is fueled by digitization, sponsorship deals, rising interest in women's leagues, and the expansion of e-sports and gaming.

Second-tier European leagues, where Brera is most active, offer especially strong upside. Serie B clubs average valuations of €27 million, compared to €240 million in Serie A — nearly a ninefold gap. Promotion can deliver 4–16x increases in value, driven by higher media rights, sponsorships, and global visibility.

Brera's majority-owned SS Juve Stabia embodies this dynamic. After promotion to Serie B in 2024, the club advanced to the promotion playoff semifinals in its first season and achieved the highest market value increase in the league, climbing 245% to a $32 million valuation. This growth, highlighted across multiple industry reports, demonstrates the speed at which Brera's operational model can translate on-field success into shareholder value.

Clene Inc. (NASDAQ: CLNN)

Clene Inc. (NASDAQ: CLNN) is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on improving mitochondrial health and protecting neuronal function to treat neurodegenerative diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis (MS).

Its lead drug candidate is CNM-Au8®, an oral suspension developed to restore neuronal health and function by increasing energy production and utilization by driving critical cellular energy producing reactions that enable neuroprotection and remyelination to increase neuronal and glial resilience to disease-relevant stressors. CNM-Au8 is being studied in various clinical trials, including the Harvard/MGH Healey ALS Platform clinical trial for patients with ALS; RESCUE-ALS, a completed proof-of-concept clinical trial in patients with early symptomatic ALS; the REPAIR trials, completed target engagement clinical trials showing brain energy metabolite change with CNM-Au8; and a completed MS clinical trial for the treatment of visual pathway deficits in chronic optic neuropathy for remyelination in stable relapsing MS. The company also has a nanotherapeutic platform of drug discovery.

CNM-Au8

CNM-Au8, Clene's lead asset, is a highly concentrated aqueous suspension of catalytically active, clean-surfaced, faceted gold nanocrystals. Multiple pathogenic insults contribute to neuronal death. Mitochondrial dysfunction and NAD+ decline is a common final pathway in neurodegeneration, with NAD+ as a critical determinant of cell survival and function. CNM-Au8's catalytic mechanisms target the energetic deficits, oxidative stress and accumulation of misfolded proteins that are common to many neurodegenerative diseases.

The unique catalytic mechanism of action of CNM-Au8 is hypothesized to act as a neuroprotective and remyelinating therapy in neurodegenerative disease states in order to: (1) drive, support and maintain beneficial metabolic and energetic cellular reactions within diseased, stressed and/or damaged cells, (2) directly catalyze the reduction of harmful, reactive oxygen species ("ROS") and (3) promote protein homeostasis via activation of the heat shock factor-1 pathway, recognized to dampen the cytotoxicity caused by misfolded and denatured proteins, which are known to occur ubiquitously in neurodegenerative diseases.

CNM-Au8 is used in combination with other agents, has no known drug-drug interactions, and is designed to improve function and survival. The clinical effects of both function and survival were seen in its clinical ALS trials, as earlier announced.

More than 500 estimated years of collective exposure across ALS, MS, and Parkinson's disease participants in CNM-Au8 clinical trials and Expanded Access Protocol (compassionate use) programs have been recorded without any observed safety signals.

CNM-Au8 is a federally registered trademark of Clene Inc. Clene, based in Salt Lake City, Utah, with R&D and manufacturing operations in Maryland, began in 2013.

Market Opportunity

ALS is the most prevalent adult-onset progressive motor neuron disease, affecting approximately 30,000 people in the U.S. and an estimated 500,000 people worldwide, with a life expectancy of typically three to five years. Clene estimates that global ALS treatment sales will be greater than $1 billion annually within the coming few years. Additional treatments affecting daily function and survival remain the market need.

Additionally, there are more than 2 million MS patients globally, and Clene estimates the market size to be worth more than $23 billion annually. While the MS community has been successful at limiting relapses, non-relapsing MS patients continue to clinically deteriorate even while receiving effective immunomodulatory disease-modifying therapies ("DMTs"). A critical unmet medical need remains for therapeutic interventions that protect neuronal function and myelin health independent of immunomodulation to address progression independent of relapse activity.

HeartBeam Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAT)

HeartBeam Inc. (NASDAQ: BEAT) is a medical technology company developing a groundbreaking solution for at-home detection and monitoring of cardiac conditions. The company is creating the first ever cable-free synthesized 12-lead ECG platform designed to give patients the ability to record their symptoms the moment they occur, wherever they are. By providing synthesized, 12-lead ECG data, physicians can quickly assess the symptoms and ensure patients get the care they need in a timely manner. It also eliminates the need for wires, complex setup, or clinical staff, thus allowing synthesized 12-lead ECG signals to be accessible outside of a medical setting.

HeartBeam's vision is to redefine cardiac care by enabling early detection, proactive monitoring, and informed clinical decisions outside the confines of a traditional medical setting. Its patented approach not only delivers similar, but not identical, accuracy of conventional 12-lead ECGs for arrhythmia detection but also unlocks future capabilities in ischemia detection, AI-assisted analysis, and longitudinal cardiac trend tracking.

The HeartBeam System is now FDA cleared for arrhythmia assessment, following foundational 510(k) clearance granted in December 2024. The company submitted a 510(k) application for its 12-lead ECG synthesis software in January 2025 for arrhythmia assessment. As it approaches commercialization, HeartBeam is executing a multi-phase go-to-market strategy with initial U.S. rollout plans and a focus on high-margin, recurring revenue.

The company is headquartered in Santa Clara, California.

Products

HeartBeam's flagship product is a credit card-sized, cable-free device designed to capture ECG signals in three non-coplanar directions and transform them into synthesized 12-lead ECGs. This novel form factor integrates a smartphone app, cloud connectivity, and a physician portal, enabling patients to record cardiac events at the moment symptoms occur and physicians to assess and triage in near real time.

The device is supported by an expanding software ecosystem. A key component of this is HeartBeam's proprietary 12-lead ECG synthesis software, which met its clinical endpoint in the VALID-ECG pivotal study with 93.4% manual diagnostic agreement for arrhythmia assessment. This software is currently under FDA review and is designed to deliver clinical-grade arrhythmia diagnostic capabilities outside of traditional healthcare environments.

In April 2025, HeartBeam announced a strategic partnership with AccurKardia to incorporate its FDA-cleared ECG analysis software, AccurECG™, into HeartBeam's offering. This integration is expected to enhance automated rhythm interpretation, streamline physician workflows, and improve diagnostic speed and accuracy.

Additional form factors are under development, including an on-demand synthesized 12-lead patch with issued patents, intended to serve the extended-wear market segment. These complementary offerings are intended to support chronic disease management and continuous monitoring applications, broadening HeartBeam's total product ecosystem in the future.

Market Opportunity

HeartBeam is targeting large and growing segments within the $20 billion+ global cardiac monitoring and diagnostics market. According to the company's own materials, the U.S. concierge care segment alone represents a $500 million serviceable addressable market (SAM), comprising approximately 1.5 million patients—500,000 of whom are at elevated cardiac risk. This initial focus provides a strategic entry point for cash-pay and early adoption.

Expanding beyond this niche, HeartBeam identifies a $1.3 billion to $2.6 billion annual opportunity in the broader U.S. direct patient pay market, driven by more than 2.6 million high-income individuals aged 35–74 with elevated cardiac risk. For comparison, more than 2.5 million Oura rings and over 3 million AliveCor Kardia devices have been sold, demonstrating strong consumer willingness to adopt personal cardiac technologies.

HeartBeam's long-term opportunity is significantly larger. The company estimates that over 20 million people in the U.S. are at high risk for myocardial infarction (MI), representing a total addressable market nearly 40 times greater than the concierge segment. Additionally, the company's on-demand 12-lead patch aims to capture market share in the extended wear and mobile cardiac telemetry (MCOT) space, competing with incumbents like iRhythm, Boston Scientific, Philips, and Baxter.

NRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRXP)

NRx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: NRXP) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapies for central nervous system disorders, particularly Suicidal Depression and PTSD. The company is leveraging its patented NMDA receptor modulation platform with two drugs, NRX-100 (preservative-free ketamine) and NRX-101 (D-cycloserine/lurasidone), that have received FDA Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designations respectively. Both address acute unmet medical needs, in that there is no FDA-approved medication for suicidal depression and PTSD. The only approved treatment today is electroshock therapy.

A New Drug Application (NDA) for its lead investigational drug, NRX-100 (preservative free intravenous ketamine), is being filed for use as treatment for suicidal depression, a condition for which existing treatments remain limited. FDA has approved the Company's Pediatric Study Plan and granted a $4.3 million filing fee waiver to support this application. Additionally, the company is working to bring NRX-101 (D-cycloserine/lurasidone) to the market; the product is positioned to be the first FDA-approved oral therapy for suicidal bipolar depression.

Both new drugs are part of the growing focus on neuroplastic therapies that treat life-threatening CNS diseases by stimulating the growth of new synaptic connections within the brain. Research has shown that suicidal depression is associated with high levels of NMDA receptor activity in the brain, with atrophy of brain cell connections. Administration of NMDA antagonist drugs such as NRX-100 and NRX-101 is associated in increased levels of brain glutamate, formation of new synapses, and documented clinical improvement in well controlled clinical trials.

NRx has also established HOPE Therapeutics, a wholly-owned 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, treatment resistant depression and PTSD, combining ketamine therapies, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), digital therapeutics, and other precision psychiatry tools in a safe, professional clinical environment. NRx plans to spin HOPE out as an independent, publicly traded company in the near term.

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

NRx Product Portfolio

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

• NRX-100: A preservative free intravenous ketamine formulation (patent pending); an NDA for the product is being filed with the FDA for acute suicidal depression, backed by strong clinical trial data and Fast Track designation from the FDA.
• NRX-101 (oral D-cycloserine/lurasidone): A patent protected 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; an NDA for Accelerated Approval is planned for 2025.
• Expanded Research: The company is further evaluating NRX-101 as a potential non-opioid treatment for chronic pain and as 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 psychiatry-led clinics focused on suicidal depression, treatment resistant depression, PTSD and related Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders. Its care model integrates ketamine therapy, 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 progress includes agreements to acquire Kadima Neuropsychiatric Institute and Dura Medical and a letter of intent with Neurospa TMS, strengthening HOPE's foundation in interventional psychiatry.

HOPE projects $100 million in forward looking annual revenue and profitability by year-end 2025. Positioned as a stand-alone 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, an acutely life-threatening condition, affects approximately 12 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 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 or 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.

Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRB)

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.

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG)

SEGG Media Corp. (NASDAQ: SEGG) 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 $300 million financing facility.
• 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.

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX)

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

The company is actively advancing multiple late-stage clinical programs, including HyBryte™ (SGX301), a novel photodynamic therapy for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Additional candidates in development target psoriasis (SGX302), oral mucositis (SGX942), and Behçet's disease (SGX945), while its public health efforts focus on heat-stable vaccines for ricin poisoning (RiVax®), Ebola (SuVax™), and Marburg (MarVax™) viruses, that have been supported by non-dilutive government grants and contracts of approximately $60 million to date.

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

The company is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey.

Pipeline and Development Programs

Specialized BioTherapeutics

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

SGX302, a photodynamic therapy based on the same active ingredient as HyBryte™, is in clinical development for mild-to-moderate psoriasis, with positive Phase 1/2 proof-of-concept results, it is actively enrolling patients in a Phase 2a clinical trial.

SGX942, designed to reduce inflammation and tissue damage in oral mucositis associated with cancer treatment, is progressing as a potential first-in-class therapy.
SGX945, targeting aphthous ulcers in Behçet's disease, is actively enrolling in a Phase 2a clinical trial and has received fast-track designation, highlighting the urgency of developing effective treatments for this rare inflammatory condition.

Public Health Solutions

The company's Public Health Solutions segment focuses on medical countermeasures for biothreats and emerging infectious diseases, leveraging non-dilutive government funding to advance its programs. RiVax®, a ricin toxin vaccine, has demonstrated strong preclinical and early clinical results and may be eligible for government procurement under the Strategic National Stockpile initiative.

The company's RiVax®, as well as its vaccine candidates for Ebola and Marburg viruses are based on its proprietary ThermoVax® technology, which stabilizes vaccines for long-term storage without refrigeration. This approach could be transformative in regions where maintaining cold-chain logistics is challenging.

The ongoing development of these vaccines is supported by funding from NIH, BARDA, and DTRA, with the potential for up to three priority review vouchers (PRVs) upon regulatory approval, to be used for future programs or sold. Notably, PRVs have previously sold for roughly $100 million.

Market Opportunity

Soligenix targets markets with significant commercial potential, focusing on rare diseases and biodefense applications. HyBryte™ addresses CTCL, a disease affecting over 68,000 patients across the U.S. and Europe, with a total market opportunity exceeding $250 million. SGX302, the company's therapy for mild-to-moderate psoriasis, serves a much larger population, as over eight million people in the U.S. are affected by the condition, representing a global market opportunity exceeding $1 billion.

SGX942, developed for oral mucositis in head and neck cancer patients, is aimed at a market worth more than $500 million, while SGX945 for Behçet's disease serves a niche segment valued at over $200 million worldwide.

In addition to its rare disease programs, Soligenix's Public Health Solutions division has the potential to generate significant revenue through government procurement contracts. By focusing on both orphan drug markets and government-funded biodefense initiatives, Soligenix has positioned itself for sustained revenue growth through multiple high-value opportunities.
