Viatris, headquartered in Canonsburg, PA, is a healthcare company that supplies medicines to 1 billion patients globally.

According to the lawsuit, defendants misled investors by, among other things, minimizing the impact of the failed inspection at Viatris’ Indore, India facility and Warning Letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

The suit alleges that on February 27, 2025, investors learned the truth when Viatris announced its financial results for Q4 and full-year 2024, providing disappointing 2025 guidance due to “the expected financial impact from Indore facility warning letter and import alert.”

On this news, the price of Viatris common stock fell more than 15%, or $1.71 per share, from a closing price of $11.24 per share on February 26, 2025 to a close of $9.53 per share on February 27.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.

Berger Montague, with offices in Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Delaware, Washington, D.C., San Diego, San Francisco and Chicago, has been a pioneer in securities class action litigation since its founding in 1970. Berger Montague has represented individual and institutional investors for over five decades and serves as lead counsel in courts throughout the United States.

Scripps wins National Association of Broadcasters’ Service to America Award for its hurricane relief efforts

PR Newswire

Together with viewers across the country, Scripps raised more than
 $289,000, providing critical aid to local communities in need


CINCINNATI
, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The National Association of Broadcasters has awarded The E.W. Scripps Company (NASDAQ: SSP) with the 2025 “Service to America” award for its relief efforts following Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Scripps received the top honor in the television ownership group category.

The Celebration of Service to America Awards honor excellence in community service, philanthropy and impact by local radio and television stations across the country.

Last fall, Hurricanes Helene and Milton made landfall within weeks of each other, wreaking havoc on the Southeastern U.S. The back-to-back catastrophic impacts from both hurricanes ranked among the 10 costliest in U.S. history.

Scripps News, Scripps’ national streaming news channel, and Scripps-owned local television stations played a pivotal role in keeping viewers informed. The dedicated team of reporters tracked the hurricanes, delivering real-time updates on landfall and the aftermath. By providing crucial information about community evacuations and preparedness, Scripps journalists ensured that viewers were well-equipped to face the challenges posed by the storms, while Scripps meteorologists delivered the latest forecasts to guide their decisions.

Before the storms, the Scripps Howard Fund, a public charity established by Scripps, collaborated with local stations and Scripps News to prepare for the potential establishment of disaster relief fundraisers. As soon as the storm passed, the three teams launched campaigns on air, online and on social media to serve impacted communities. Calls to action ran alongside Scripps’ coverage of the damage and recovery efforts. Viewers nationwide responded, raising $289,000 for 29 local nonprofits on the front lines.

“This award is a testament to the profound public service role our local broadcast teams play within communities – providing them with critical information during times of crisis and fostering human connection when it’s needed most,” said Adam Symson, Scripps president and CEO.  “Every dollar of the stations’ campaigns provided immediate relief and long-term support, offering hope and resources to communities as they began their recovery process.”


Watch: WFTS, Scripps’ local television station in Tampa Bay, presents checks to local organizations.

The NAB Leadership Foundation will honor this year’s winners at the Celebration of Service to America Awards gala on June 10 in Washington, D.C.View the full list of winners here.

DTE Energy breaks ground on new solar park to help meet Ford Motor Company’s needs for 100% carbon-free and renewable energy

Ford’s participation in DTE’s CleanVision MIGreenPower is largest renewable energy purchase from a utility in U.S. history

Detroit, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DTE Energy, the state’s largest producer of and investor in renewable energy, broke ground this morning on a 100-megawatt solar array near Coldwater, MI. When complete in 2026, Cold Creek Solar Park will be the first of several DTE parks that will help Ford Motor Company reach its goal of attributing 100 percent carbon-free and renewable energy to its Michigan manufacturing facilities.  

Ford’s purchase of 650 megawatts of renewable energy from DTE’s CleanVision MIGreenPower program is the larges such purchase from a utility in U.S. history. MIGreenPower, DTE’s voluntary renewable energy program, enables business and residential customers to attribute their electricity use to Michigan-made renewable energy while funding the development of new solar and wind parks, such as the new array now under construction near Coldwater.  

Ford’s enrollment in MIGreenPower, which will help the company avoid as much as 600,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions annually, is part of its global environmental commitments. The company’s goal is to achieve carbon neutrality across its vehicles, manufacturing and supply chain no later than 2050, and to use 100% carbon-free electricity in its global manufacturing facilities by 2035.  

“Thanks to this strategic investment with DTE, Ford will soon be able to attribute all of our electricity supply in Michigan to clean energy,” said Amir Mirshahi, director of Utilities and Energy Infrastructure at Ford. “This partnership is proof of Ford’s unwavering commitment to transitioning to clean energy and aligns us with our sustainability objectives. It represents a significant step toward our goal of achieving carbon neutrality and will also help make our local Michigan communities more resilient to the impacts of climate change.” 

“We’re excited to be on this clean energy journey with Ford to fulfill its electricity needs with affordable, Michigan-made renewable energy,” said Matt Paul, president and chief operating officer, DTE Electric. “Our customers – whether they are large manufacturers like Ford, or hometown businesses, or families – are telling us they want more renewable energy, and we will continue to develop and deliver it to them.” 

DTE’s renewable energy portfolio currently consists of 20 wind parks and 34 solar parks – all located in Michigan. DTE has invested $4.6 billion in its renewable energy infrastructure since 2009 and aims to invest an additional $4 billion in renewable energy over the next several years.  

In 2025, DTE will have three new solar parks coming online in the first half of year, with three additional solar parks beginning construction. The six parks will total 800 megawatts, or enough clean energy to power more than 220,000 homes. The developments will help DTE make significant progress toward its goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions as well as meeting the State of Michigan’s clean energy goals.

The net asset value (NAV) of a closed-end fund is the market value of the underlying investments (i.e., stocks and bonds) in the Fund’s portfolio, minus liabilities, divided by the total number of Fund shares outstanding. However, the Fund also has a market price; the value at which it trades on an exchange. If the market price is above the NAV the Fund is trading at a premium. If the market price is below the NAV the Fund is trading at a discount.

Performance returns for the Fund are total returns, which includes dividends, and are net of management fees and other Fund expenses. Returns are calculated assuming that a shareholder reinvested all distributions. Past performance cannot predict future investment results.

Performance will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data shown. Performance information shown does not reflect the deduction of taxes that shareholders would pay on Fund distributions or the sale of Fund shares. Shareholders must be willing to tolerate significant fluctuations in the value of their investment. An investment in the Fund involves risk, including loss of principal.

Sources of distributions to shareholders may include ordinary dividends, long-term capital gains and return of capital. The final determination of the source of all distributions in 2025 for tax reporting purposes will be made after year end.

BioNexus Gene Lab Corp. Files 2024 Annual Report Highlighting Strategic Innovation, Operational Resilience, and Growth Trajectory

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BioNexus Gene Lab Corp. (Nasdaq: BGLC) (“BioNexus” or the “Company”), a diversified biotechnology and specialty materials group headquartered in Malaysia and incorporated in Wyoming, today announced the filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company’s 2024 report showcases a year of strategic realignment, technological advancement, and enhanced corporate governance – positioning BGLC for sustainable long-term growth.

Financial Resilience and Market Stability

BGLC ended 2024 with a strong cash position of over $4million and total liquidity exceeding $6 million, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to prudent capital management. Despite macroeconomic headwinds, BioNexus reduced its year-over-year net loss by over 39%, reflecting improved operational efficiency and cost discipline across its healthcare diagnostics and specialty chemicals divisions.

Breakthrough Innovation in Digital Health and Blockchain

The Company marked a significant milestone by approving a blockchain-native treasury strategy, becoming the first Nasdaq-listed issuer to prioritize Ethereum (ETH) as a core strategic reserve asset. This forward-looking initiative is intended to enhance capital efficiency while aligning with emerging digital infrastructure standards – particularly within the U.S. and Wyoming’s evolving Web3 regulatory frameworks.

Additionally, the Company continued to expand its genomic diagnostics offerings under its MRNA Scientific division and entered into strategic partnerships to scale its molecular screening platform and AI-based health diagnostics initiatives.

Nasdaq Compliance

To maintain its Nasdaq listing, the Company effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split on April 7, 2025. The Company expects to regain full compliance with the Nasdaq minimum bid price rule by or before the May 1, 2025 deadline.

CEO Commentary

“2024 was a foundational year for BioNexus,” said Sam Tan, CEO and President of BGLC. “We emerged from operational restructuring with renewed strategic focus, maintaining a clean balance sheet, and the conviction to lead in both healthcare technology and decentralized finance. We look forward to executing on our growth roadmap and building long-term shareholder value.”

About BioNexus Gene Lab Corp.

BioNexus Gene Lab Corp. (Nasdaq: BGLC) is a Wyoming-incorporated, Nasdaq-listed company with operating subsidiaries in Malaysia focused on molecular diagnostics and chemical raw materials distribution.

SILVERSEA REVEALS MORE ON ITS HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SOUTHERNMOST HOTEL IN PUERTO WILLIAMS, CHILE, CREATING A NEW GATEWAY TO ANTARCTICA

PR Newswire

Named The Cormorant at 55 South, Silversea reveals first spaces of the hotel, set to open during the 2025/2026 Antarctica season

Take a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the hotel here and learn more on Silversea’s Antarctica offering here. 


MIAMI
, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Silversea, the leading experiential luxury and expedition travel brand, has unveiled the first spaces and name of The Cormorant at 55 South, its new 150-room hotel in Puerto Williams, Chile, scheduled to open during the 2025/2026 Antarctica season. Upon completion, Silversea’s new hotel will create the most convenient, comfortable and seamless way to visit Antarctica.

“The Cormorant at 55 South is a tribute to the rich culture, breathtaking natural beauty, and storied history of Puerto Williams, immersing guests in their destination before embarking on their journey to Antarctica,” said Bert Hernandez, president, Silversea. “Every aspect of The Cormorant is thoughtfully designed with our guests in mind, ensuring a comfortable and uniquely Silversea experience. Each room offers panoramic views of Patagonia, and the hotel creates a deep connection to the local community, providing specially designed experiences that will allow our guests to begin their expeditions sooner than ever, all in uncompromised comfort.”

THE CORMORANT AT 55 SOUTH

The Cormorant is a nod to the unique location of the property at 55° S – making it the southernmost hotel on Earth – and an acknowledgement of the location’s history. Paying homage to Lakutaia, which is the indigenous Yahgan word for cormorant, the aquatic bird is a symbol of the seafarer and intended to bestow good fortune on guests embarking on their greatest adventure.

ROOMS DESIGNED TO IMMERSE GUESTS IN THE DESTINATION

The Cormorant will feature two distinct room views, including serene forest views and tranquil water vistas overlooking the Beagle Channel. This design brings guests closer to the breathtaking natural beauty of Patagonia, immersing them in the landscapes that define this region.

Each room is thoughtfully designed with expansive windows that frame sweeping views, filling the space with natural light and creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. The interiors feature warm wood tones and earthy elements, deepening the connection to the destination while creating an authentic and calming environment. To further this connection, every room will incorporate handcrafted items created by regional artisans, adding a unique touch that celebrates local and regional culture.

Welcoming guests from the moment they arrive will be The Cormorant’s own dedicated staff – all trained in The Silversea Way to provide the high level of service that is synonymous with Silversea.

ENHANCING THE EXPERIENCE THROUGH DESTINATION LEADERSHIP

The hotel will facilitate a uniquely frictionless journey to Antarctica, allowing guests to enjoy Silversea’s personalized service and warm hospitality throughout their entire experience. Silversea’s innovative six-day Antarctica Fly Cruise expeditions allow guests to fly over the Drake Passage, providing a shorter option without compromising on the time spent in the destination.

Having pioneered luxury expedition cruising in 2008, Silversea became the first travel brand to offer luxury Antarctica expeditions. With its experience in the region, Silversea now offers the most enriching and personalized adventures on the continent, with an industry-leading expedition team that comprises up to 28 experts in their field, knowledgeable kayak instructors, world-class onboard lectures and some of the highest Zodiac-to-guest ratios in the industry, among other enriching features.

Silversea’s expedition experts host guided walks ashore, identifying wildlife species, unique glacial and geological structures, and other fascinating features only found on an Antarctic expedition. Back on board, the team’s insightful lectures provide an overview of the day’s sightings and experiences.

FOLLOW ALONG WITH STORIES BY SILVERSEA

Silversea also announces the launch of Stories by Silversea, its new content series featuring authentic storytelling and resources. Today, Silversea is releasing the first two episodes, “Embrace the Unknown” and “A Legacy in the Making: Part 1.”
