Tenax Therapeutics Announces Presentation of Phase 3 LEVEL Results in Late-Breaking Scientific Sessions at ESC Congress 2026

In patients with a baseline 6MWD below the trial median of 333 meters, treatment with TNX-103 resulted in a 26.3-meter improvement compared to placebo (p = 0.0112)

In the same patient population, TNX-103 produced a 47% reduction in NT-proBNP (p < 0.0001) and a 4.9 mmHg reduction in RVSP (p = 0.009) compared to placebo

With full statistics analysis now complete, Company confirms TNX-103’s biological effects include marked reductions in pulmonary artery pressure and NT-proBNP, a biomarker reflecting increased cardiac wall stress. Results will inform protocol population enrichment and changes to overall registrational path

CHAPEL HILL, N.C., Aug. 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tenax Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: TENX) (“Tenax” or “Tenax Therapeutics” or the “Company”) today announced that additional results from the Phase 3 LEVEL clinical trial evaluating TNX-103 (oral levosimendan) in patients with pulmonary hypertension due to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (PH-HFpEF) were presented in a Late-Breaking Clinical Science session at the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Congress 2026 in Munich, Germany.

Data confirmed findings from prespecified analyses which identified a favorable treatment effect in patients with a lower baseline 6MWD, supported by consistent changes in prespecified endpoints measuring cardiac stress and pulmonary pressures.

“The independent analysis of LEVEL data we presented today sharpens what the earlier topline results initially indicated: patients with the lowest baseline walking distance had the greatest improvement, on top of state-of-the-art background therapy. What was particularly striking was that even patients who did not show a significant improvement in exercise capacity had the same magnitude of reduction in cardiac wall stress and pulmonary artery pressures, changes that correspond to a reduction in heart failure hospitalizations over longer follow-up,” said Sanjiv Shah, MD, Director of the HFpEF Program at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and LEVEL’s Principal Investigator. “The magnitude of the reduction in NT-proBNP and the accompanying lowering of pulmonary pressure indicate that TNX-103 may provide clinical benefit to the majority of patients with PH-HFpEF independent of its effect on walk distance. The data are compelling and consistently point toward a potential therapeutic benefit in PH-HFpEF patients.”

“The full set of prespecified analyses we completed in the last week, and Dr. Shah’s presentation of the results today, continue to emphasize that the treatment effect of TNX-103 is concentrated in patients walking less than the trial median of 333 meters at baseline. The finding of biologic efficacy in the majority of patients in LEVEL validates that the unique mechanism of action demonstrated in the Phase 2 HELP study can address patient function. That gives us conviction and a clear strategy to enrich LEVEL-2 for a study population of patients in whom the treatment effect is demonstrable,” said Stuart Rich, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Tenax Therapeutics. “LEVEL has been enormously informative in shaping what comes next, and we intend to move quickly on behalf of patients who currently have no approved treatment options.”

Key Takeaways from Late-Breaking Presentation

The Phase 3 LEVEL clinical trial (NCT05983250) randomized 241 patients with PH-HFpEF across 41 sites in the United States and Canada. In this population, the primary endpoint of change in 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) at Week 12 did not achieve statistical significance, nor did the key secondary endpoint, change in Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire total symptom score (KCCQ-TSS); however, marked improvements were noted in exploratory endpoints that demonstrate the biologic effects of the therapy, notably N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP).

Several key observations made in the trial, and their potential influence on the future development of levosimendan for patients with pulmonary hypertension and heart failure, were emphasized:

  • Across the overall trial population (n = 241), TNX-103 was safe and well tolerated, with no significant arrhythmias.
  • This population of older, symptomatic patients presented with multiple comorbidities, and was well-treated on guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT): across these categories of increasing disease severity, with emphasis placed on atrial fibrillation and exercise tolerance, and increasing therapeutic intervention like MRAs/diuretics, and SGLT-2 inhibitors, levosimendan’s benefit appears to increase.
  • An inverse linear relationship between baseline 6MWD and treatment effect was described and demonstrated not to be explained by regression to the mean. Patients in LEVEL whose baseline 6MWD match those reported in HELP and the recent CADENCE trial with sotatercept (274-285 meters) demonstrated an approximate 20-meter placebo-adjusted improvement in 6MWD. The overall trial population in LEVEL, however, had a median about 50-60 meters higher than in these previous PH-HFpEF trials.
  • Prognostic implications include the impact of levosimendan on NT-proBNP compared to multiple classes of heart failure therapies, including some currently being tested, with commentary of the magnitude of effect in relation to heart failure events. As noted in the presentation, no data from a Phase 3 randomized trial has demonstrated even half the impact on this key indicator of cardiac wall stress, when compared to placebo. In an analysis of the relationship between heart failure outcomes and NT-proBNP change across these classes, Dr. Shah noted that the magnitude of levosimendan’s effect on cardiac wall stress suggests potential impact on outcomes in these HFpEF patients.
  • In addition to RVSP, many echocardiographic endpoints show improvement with levosimendan compared to placebo. Across each domain of echocardiography, approximately 20 echocardiographic parameters improved, even when adjusting for multiple comparisons.

Dr. Shah referenced these results in the prespecified subgroup of patients with a baseline 6MWD below the trial median of 333 meters (n = 119), at Week 12:

  • 6MWD: least-squares mean change was +23.7 meters on TNX-103 versus −2.6 meters on placebo; treatment difference of +26.3 meters (p = 0.0112).
  • KCCQ-TSS: change was +9.8 points on TNX-103 versus +4.1 points on placebo; a 5-point threshold is generally considered clinically meaningful.
  • RVSP: change of −4.4 mmHg on TNX-103 versus +0.5 mmHg on placebo; treatment difference −4.9 mmHg (p = 0.009). (post-hoc analysis)
  • NT-proBNP: geometric least-squares mean ratio of 0.53 from baseline on TNX-103 (p < 0.0001), corresponding to a 47% reduction compared to placebo. (post-hoc analysis)

The Company intends that the LEVEL-2 population be enriched on the basis of clear evidence provided by the LEVEL results, and in a manner consistent with longstanding FDA guidance for sponsors. Tenax will continue to focus on the global development of this product for patients with high unmet need.

MIMRYLO is a first-in-class hepcidin mimetic designed to regulate iron distribution in the body and red blood cell overproduction to control hematocrit levels, which is the ratio of red blood cells to the total amount of blood in the body. Maintaining controlled hematocrit levels below 45% is the primary treatment goal in PV.1

“For patients living with PV, uncontrolled hematocrit can have serious consequences, including an elevated risk of life-threatening thrombotic events,” said Andrew T. Kuykendall, M.D., VERIFY lead investigator and Associate Member in the Department of Hematology at Moffitt Cancer Center. “Current treatments, such as phlebotomy, leave a significant gap for too many patients and can pose challenges to daily life and routines. The approval of MIMRYLO offers clinicians and patients a novel, first-in-class therapy that targets erythrocytosis, which drives excess red blood cell production in PV. The strength and consistency of the VERIFY data give me real confidence in MIMRYLO’s potential to advance how we treat PV in everyday practice and to maintain hematocrit control.”

Uncontrolled Hematocrit is a Challenge in the Treatment of PV

Affecting approximately 90,000 people in the U.S., PV is characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells (erythrocytosis), leading to elevated hematocrit which can increase blood viscosity, or thickness.2,3 This has the potential to result in life-threatening thrombotic events, including stroke, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.4 Maintaining hematocrit levels consistently below 45% can prevent thrombotic events and alleviate burdensome symptoms, including severe fatigue, pruritus (itching), difficulty concentrating and night sweats.4 An estimated 78% of patients still experience uncontrolled hematocrit with current standard of care, including phlebotomy and cytoreductive therapies.5 Patients with PV experiencing uncontrolled hematocrit have a four times higher risk of cardiovascular death or major cardiovascular events.4

“People living with PV often experience complex and invisible symptoms, from extreme fatigue to the emotional strain of living with a chronic blood cancer,” said Kapila Viges, Chief Executive Officer, MPN Research Foundation. “At the same time, we know that every patient’s experience with PV is different, underscoring the need to continue to listen closely to the community to understand what matters most. There remains a need for treatments that better address these daily challenges. This meaningful approval reflects important progress and brings forward a new treatment option in a disease where patients have long needed innovation and more choices. We are encouraged by MIMRYLO’s potential to help patients meet their treatment goals.”

MIMRYLO is a First-In-Class Treatment Option for Adults with PV

The approval was supported by data from the global randomized Phase 3 VERIFY study (NCT05210790) that included 293 patients with PV, showing that MIMRYLO met all efficacy endpoints and demonstrated a favorable safety profile. In the study, patients receiving MIMRYLO plus current standard of care demonstrated a higher response rate compared to placebo plus current standard of care. This included hematocrit control, a reduction in the need for phlebotomy and improvement in fatigue as measured by PROMIS Fatigue Short Form 8a.

MIMRYLO was generally well-tolerated through 52 weeks of treatment in the VERIFY trial. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events in MIMRYLO-treated patients were injection site reactions and anemia. Learn more about the Phase 3 data results here.

“The approval of MIMRYLO underscores the strength of Takeda’s late-stage pipeline and our focus on developing genuinely differentiated therapies for patients who are urgently waiting for new options,” said Julie Kim, President and Chief Executive Officer, Takeda. “We are at an important inflection point as we prepare to deliver three new medicines, which have the potential to drive our future growth and are a reflection of our commitment to advancing innovation that doesn’t just add to the treatment landscape, but reshapes it. We are grateful to the patients, care partners, advocates and investigators who helped make this approval possible.”

The open-label extension of the VERIFY trial is ongoing and Takeda will share further findings at upcoming medical conferences. Takeda is working with regulators outside of the U.S. to potentially bring MIMRYLO to more patients worldwide.

This approval does not result in any changes to Takeda’s consolidated financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2027 (FY2026).

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS

  • New or Worsening Thrombocytosis: MIMRYLO may increase platelet counts in patients with PV. Platelet counts generally plateaued on treatment by Week 8. After initiating MIMRYLO and during dose modifications, monitor CBC every 2 to 4 weeks or as clinically indicated. Platelet elevations associated with MIMRYLO may require cytoreductive therapy initiation, modification, or MIMRYLO dose modifications or discontinuation.
  • Injection-Site Reactions: Injection site reactions (including Grade 3 reactions) have been reported in patients treated with MIMRYLO. The most common injection site reactions reported were erythema, pruritus, pain, and swelling. Use ice, topical corticosteroid creams, antihistamines or analgesics, as needed, to treat injection site pain and swelling.
  • Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: Based on findings from animal reproduction studies, MIMRYLO may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Advise patients to stop taking MIMRYLO if they become pregnant.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

The most common (>15%) adverse reactions were injection site reactions (56%) and anemia (16%).

USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS

  • Lactation: Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfed child, including impaired iron absorption, advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment with MIMRYLO and for 30 days after the final treatment.
  • Females and Males of Reproductive Potential
    • Pregnancy Testing: Prior to initiating MIMRYLO, pregnancy testing is recommended for females of reproductive potential.
    • Contraception: Advise female patients of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment with MIMRYLO and for at least 30 days after the final dose of MIMRYLO.

To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Takeda Pharmaceuticals at 1-844-662-8532 or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

About MIMRYLO™

MIMRYLO™ is a first-in-class subcutaneous treatment that mimics the action of hepcidin, a natural hormone that regulates iron homeostasis and erythrocytosis. By targeting the underlying mechanism of iron dysregulation in polycythemia vera, MIMRYLO aims to reduce excess red blood cell production and help patients maintain hematocrit control. MIMRYLO is administered once weekly via subcutaneous injection and has been generally well-tolerated in clinical trials to date. Protagonist discovered MIMRYLO and led its development through Phase 3. Takeda now has exclusive global development and commercialization rights for MIMRYLO.

About VERIFY

The Phase 3 VERIFY study (NCT05210790) is an ongoing, three-part, global, randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluating MIMRYLO in 293 patients with polycythemia vera over a 156-week period, with treatment extension for participants who are continuing to derive benefit from MIMRYLO beyond the 156-week treatment period. The study is evaluating the efficacy and safety of once-weekly, subcutaneously self-administered MIMRYLO in patients with uncontrolled hematocrit who are phlebotomy-dependent despite current standard of care treatment, which could include phlebotomy, hydroxyurea, interferon and/or ruxolitinib.

The primary endpoint of the study was the proportion of patients achieving a response during Weeks 20-32, which was defined as the absence of “phlebotomy eligibility.” To meet phlebotomy eligibility, patients in the study were required to have: confirmed hematocrit ≥45% that was ≥3% higher than their baseline hematocrit value, or hematocrit ≥48%. Key secondary endpoints evaluated at Week 32 included mean number of phlebotomies, proportion of patients maintaining hematocrit <45%, mean change in fatigue score as measured by PROMIS Fatigue Short Form 8a and total symptom burden as measured by Myelofibrosis Symptom Assessment Form (MFSAF) Version 4.0.

All patients have completed their participation in the randomized, placebo-controlled portion of the study evaluating the efficacy and safety of MIMRYLO plus current standard of care versus placebo plus current standard of care and are now in the open-label portions of the study.

About Polycythemia Vera (PV)

Polycythemia vera (PV) is a chronic blood cancer characterized by the overproduction of red blood cells (erythrocytosis), which increases blood viscosity, or thickness, and can result in life threatening thrombotic events such as stroke, deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Hematocrit is the ratio of red blood cells to the total amount of blood in the body. Achieving and maintaining controlled hematocrit levels of less than 45% is the primary treatment goal in PV to prevent thrombotic events and alleviate burdensome symptoms, including severe fatigue, difficulty in concentrating, night sweats and pruritus.

20/20 BioLabs Reschedules Investor Webinar to 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on September 2, 2026 to Discuss OneTest™ Revenue and Expanding Commercial Opportunity

CEO Jonathan Cohen to Detail the Company’s Strongest Quarterly Performance Since Commercial Launch of Multi-Cancer Early Detection Testing, Key Takeaways from the Next Generation Dx Summit, and Path to Broader Commercial Adoption

Webinar to Be Held Wednesday, September 2, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time; Registration Is Now Open

GAITHERSBURG, Md., Aug. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 20/20 BioLabs, Inc. (Nasdaq: AIDX) (“20/20 BioLabs” or the “Company”), an early market entrant in AI-powered, laboratory-based blood tests for the early detection and prevention of cancers and chronic diseases, today announced that its previously announced investor webinar on Wednesday, September 2, 2026 has been rescheduled to 2:00 p.m. Eastern time.

The webinar was previously scheduled to begin at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time on the same date. Jonathan Cohen, President and Chief Executive Officer of 20/20 BioLabs, will discuss the Company’s second quarter 2026 results, which included the highest OneTest™ revenue in the Company’s history, as well as his presentation at the 18th Annual Next Generation Dx Summit and how the science he presented there connects to the Company’s commercial, regulatory, and reimbursement strategy.

To access the webinar, please use the following information:

Date: Wednesday, September 2, 2026
Time: 2:00 p.m. Eastern time (11:00 a.m. Pacific time)
Webcast: Please click here to register.


During the webinar, management expects to address the following topics:

  • A review of the Company’s second quarter 2026 results, including record OneTest™ revenue of $0.7 million, an increase of 47.1% year-over-year. Management believes this was the strongest quarterly performance since commercial launch of multi-cancer early detection (“MCED”) testing;
  • The operating leverage the Company is beginning to demonstrate in its laboratory model, with gross profit increasing 86.6% and gross margin expanding to 41.7% from 30.5%, and how management expects incremental testing volume to be absorbed across a largely fixed laboratory cost base;
  • Key takeaways from Mr. Cohen’s presentation at the 18th Annual Next Generation Dx Summit in Washington, D.C., “Aligning MCED with MAHA: Combining Protein Tumor and Inflammatory Biomarkers for Both Early Detection and Prevention of Cancers through Anti-Inflammatory Lifestyle Enhancements,” and what he heard from the clinical, regulatory, and commercial leaders in attendance;
  • The evolution of the OneTest™ platform, from a first-generation MCED blood test built on protein tumor biomarkers, to a second generation that adds inflammatory biomarkers, to a planned third-generation test designed for quarterly monitoring of both biomarker classes using at-home, upper-arm capillary blood collection devices;
  • Continued momentum in state-funded firefighter cancer screening, including Vermont’s 12-month statewide initiative to screen up to 4,500 firefighters and the $520,000 awarded to Maryland fire departments, the revenue the Company expects these programs to generate through the end of 2026, and its expected path to having tested more than 35,000 firefighters by year-end;
  • How that growing body of real-world evidence is intended to support the Company’s regulatory and reimbursement strategy, including the statutory Medicare pathway for FDA-authorized MCED blood tests beginning in 2028, and the Company’s serial biomarker tracking methodology, which follows biomarker trajectories over time rather than relying on single-point testing;
  • Commercial expansion across occupational health, military, intelligence community, physician practice, and retail channels, including the 29 new accounts added during the second quarter; and
  • A live question-and-answer session with management.

“The second quarter was the strongest quarterly performance since commercial launch for multi-cancer early detection testing, and the audience I addressed at the Next Generation Dx Summit is exactly the group that shapes how quickly tests like ours reach patients,” said Jonathan Cohen, President and Chief Executive Officer of 20/20 BioLabs. “On September 2, I want to connect those two threads for investors: the science of pairing protein tumor markers with inflammatory markers for both detection and prevention, and the commercial and reimbursement pathway that record OneTest™ volume is helping us build.”

The September 2 webinar is part of the Company’s monthly investor webinar series, held on the first Wednesday of each month, generally at 12:00 p.m. Eastern time. Investors and other interested parties are encouraged to submit questions in advance to [email protected]. A replay will be made available through the Company’s investor relations website following the event.

As part of its commitment to expanding access to early cancer detection, 20/20 BioLabs will provide webinar attendees with a promotional discount code for OneTest™ at the conclusion of the event. The offer will be available to all attendees, regardless of shareholder status.

Additional detail on the Company’s second quarter 2026 results is available in the earnings release issued on August 17, 2026, and in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The webinar is not expected to include the disclosure of any material non-public information.

CAR INVESTOR ALERT: Avis Budget Group, Inc. Investors with Substantial Losses Have Opportunity to Lead the Avis Class Action Lawsuit – RGRD Law

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Avis Budget Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAR) securities (including those who bought Avis common stock to cover a short position) between February 20, 2026 and April 21, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”), have until September 29, 2026 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Avis class action lawsuit. Captioned Hakimian v. Pentwater Capital Management LP, No. 26-cv-02275 (M.D. Fla.), the Avis class action lawsuit charges Pentwater Capital Management LP and its Chief Executive Officer with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

CASE ALLEGATIONS: Avis provides car and truck rentals, car sharing, and ancillary products and services to business and consumers through its Avis, Budget, and Zipcar brands.

The Avis class action lawsuit alleges that Pentwater Capital Management LP and its CEO Matthew Halbower steadily accumulated a massive equity stake in Avis over a period of months, notwithstanding Avis’s weak underlying business fundamentals, while driving up its stock price by buying heavily in the midst of a short-squeeze dynamic. Then, only after Avis’s stock price peaked at $847.70 per share on April 21, 2026, Pentwater sold 4.3 million shares of Avis stock into the market between April 22 and 23, for $1.75 billion in proceeds and causing Avis’s share price to plummet, the complaint alleges.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Avis securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Avis class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Avis class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Avis class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Avis class action lawsuit.

Trinity Biotech Provides Diagnostics Business, Transformation And Corporate Update

– Continued execution of transformation strategy drives commercial, manufacturing and pipeline progress

– PrePsia™ patent portfolio expands to nine granted U.S. and European patents

– Company issues update on Nasdaq listing

DUBLIN, Aug. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Trinity Biotech plc (Nasdaq: TRIB), a commercial-stage biotechnology company focused on human diagnostics and diabetes management solutions, today provided an update on key developments across its diagnostics business, highlighting continued commercial progress, operational transformation and diagnostic pipeline advancement.

Strengthening Commercial Leadership in Europe

Trinity Biotech is pleased to announce that Jordi Romero has joined the Company as Head of Commercial Operations – Europe. Mr. Romero brings extensive experience in diagnostic sales, marketing and commercial leadership, including significant expertise within the haemoglobin diagnostics market. He joins Trinity at an important stage in the Company’s transformation as it seeks to accelerate profitable growth across its diagnostics franchise in Europe and other international markets. 

Mr. Romero’s appointment forms part of Trinity’s broader strategy to strengthen its commercial organisation, deepen customer engagement and enhance execution across key international markets.

Continued Rollout of Upgraded HbA1c Column Technology

The Company also announced continued progress in the commercial rollout of its next-generation high-capacity HbA1c column system for the FDA-cleared Premier Hb9210™ analyser. Trinity has now successfully completed rollout of the upgraded column system in three of its largest international markets and is receiving positive customer feedback regarding performance and overall user experience.

Designed for Trinity Biotech’s Premier Hb9210™ analyser, the Company’s dedicated laboratory HbA1c solution, the upgraded column system delivers up to four times the testing capacity compared to the existing column system and minimizes instrument downtime through improved stability and reduced calibration requirements. These operational gains create a more efficient workflow for clinical laboratories and support broader adoption of the platform.

The Company expects continued deployment across additional markets over the coming quarters.

Operational Transformation Driving Margin and Working Capital Benefits

Trinity continues to execute its comprehensive operational transformation programme, including the transition of significant portions of the manufacturing process for its World Health Organization-approved rapid HIV test portfolio to an outsourced manufacturing structure.

The Company has successfully completed manufacture of the previously announced approximately 9 million TrinScreen HIV tests under this new operating model and has now also commenced manufacture of Uni-Gold™ HIV utilising its outsourced manufacturing structure.

The Company remains focused on scaling Uni-Gold™ HIV production and has currently a strong order book for the product.

Once fully scaled, the Company expects the outsourced manufacturing model to deliver meaningful improvements in gross margin performance, manufacturing efficiency and working capital utilisation.

As previously indicated, the transition and scale-up process may result in quarter-to-quarter variability in Uni-Gold™ HIV revenues during the ramp-up period as manufacturing output continues to increase and supply chain inventories are optimised.

Continued Advancement of the Diagnostics Pipeline

Trinity also continues to advance its pipeline of innovative diagnostic products.

Most recently, the Company received a European patent covering the use of blood pressure-related metrics in its PrePsia™ early preeclampsia prediction platform. This brings the total number of PrePsia™ related granted patents across Europe and the United States to nine and further strengthens the intellectual property protection around the Company’s maternal health programme.

PrePsia™ is being developed as an early screening test designed to identify pregnancies at increased risk of preterm preeclampsia, one of the leading causes of maternal and foetal morbidity worldwide. The Company believes the continued expansion of the intellectual property portfolio supporting PrePsia™, and its underpinning technologies, strengthens the foundation for future commercialisation opportunities in women’s health diagnostics. 

The Company intends to launch the PrePsia™ test through its existing New York State Department of Health approved reference laboratory.

Transformation Continues to Gain Momentum

The Company believes these achievements demonstrate continued execution against its strategy to transform Trinity Biotech into a more efficient, commercially focused and innovation-driven diagnostics business.

Key areas of progress include:

  • Strengthening commercial leadership and market execution.
  • Enhancing the competitiveness of the Premier Hb9210 platform.
  • Improving manufacturing efficiency through strategic outsourcing initiatives.
  • Expanding intellectual property protection around high-value diagnostic pipeline assets.
  • Positioning the business for sustainable margin expansion and profitable growth.

Nasdaq Notice 

As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 6-K filed February  20, 2026, on February  19, 2026, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that, for the preceding 30 consecutive business days, the market value of publicly held shares (“MVPHS”) remained below the minimum $15 million for continued inclusion on The Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(b)(3)(c) (the “MVPHS Requirement”). The Company was provided an extension of 180 calendar days, or until August 18, 2026, (the “Compliance Period”) to regain compliance with the MVPHS Requirement. 

On August 28, 2026, the Company received a staff determination letter (the “Determination Letter”) from the Staff notifying the Company that it had not regained compliance with the MVPHS Requirement by August 18, 2026. Accordingly, and as described in the Determination Letter, unless the Company timely requests a hearing before a Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities would be subject to suspension/delisting. Accordingly, the Company intends to timely request a hearing before the Panel.

The Company has a number of initiatives and strategic transactions at advanced stages, which, if completed, would be expected to increase the Company’s MVPHS above the $15 million minimum. The Company intends to continue to progress these transactions and as such management remains confident that the actions currently underway will enable the Company to reach a MVPHS of over $15 million.

The hearing request will automatically stay any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing and the expiration of any additional extension period granted by the Panel following the hearing. In that regard, pursuant to the Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Panel has the authority to grant an extension not to exceed February 24, 2027.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Panel will grant the Company an additional extension period or that the Company will ultimately regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Select Market.

Trinity Biotech claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Reform Act. These forward-looking statements are often characterized by the terms “may,” “believes,” “projects,” “expects,” “anticipates,” or words of similar import, and do not reflect historical facts. Specific forward-looking statements contained in this release may be affected by risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, our ability to capitalize on the Waveform transaction and our recent acquisitions, our continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market, our ability to achieve profitable operations in the future, our ability to successfully develop and commercialize data center cooling & thermal management solutions for AI and high-performance computing, the impact of the spread of COVID-19 and its variants, the possible pause and/or disruption in U.S. Government funding for HIV tests produced by Trinity Biotech, potential excess inventory levels and inventory imbalances at the Company’s distributors, losses or system failures with respect to Trinity Biotech’s facilities or manufacturing operations, the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on international operations, fluctuations in quarterly operating results, dependence on suppliers, the market acceptance of Trinity Biotech’s products and services, the continuing development of its products, required government approvals, risks associated with manufacturing and distributing its products on a commercial scale free of defects, risks related to the introduction of new instruments manufactured by third parties, risks associated with competing in the human diagnostic market, risks related to the protection of Trinity Biotech’s intellectual property or claims of infringement of intellectual property asserted by third parties, and risks related to the condition of the United States economy and other risks detailed under “Risk Factors” in Trinity Biotech’s annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and Trinity Biotech’s other periodic reports filed from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

AiRWA receives expected notification of deficiency from Nasdaq related to delayed filing of annual report on Form 10-K

Smyrna, Delaware, Aug. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AiRWA Inc. (NASDAQ: YYAI) (the “Company”) today announced that it received an expected deficiency notification letter from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) on August 24, 2026 (the “Notice”). The Notice indicated that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) (the “Listing Rule”) as a result of its failure to timely file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2026 (the “Form 10-K”), as described more fully in the Company’s Form 12b-25 Notification of Late Filing (the “Form 12b-25”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on July 30, 2026. The Listing Rule requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic reports with the SEC.

The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

In accordance with Nasdaq’s listing rules, the Company has 60 calendar days after the Notice, or until October 23, 2026, to submit a plan to regain compliance with the Listing Rule. Pursuant to the Notice, following receipt of such plan, Nasdaq may grant an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the Form 10-K’s due date, or until January 25, 2027, for the Company to regain compliance. The Company expects and intends to file the Form 10-K before the October 23, 2026, deadline for submission of the plan.

As previously disclosed, the filing of the Form 10-K was delayed due to the matters described in the Form 12b-25. Following a significant acquisition, it has proved more time-consuming than anticipated to consolidate the financial results of the acquired business with our own.

The Company continues to work diligently to complete its 2026 10-K and, once it is filed with the SEC, the Company anticipates regaining and maintaining compliance with its SEC reporting obligations and Nasdaq listing requirements.
