Management Comment

Commented Mr. Ori Gilboa, CEO of SaverOne, “2025 to-date has been a solid period of growth for SaverOne, driven especially by international expansion. In particular, we are expanding our global footprint by winning new deals with the international subsidiaries of long-standing customers, in line with our global expansion strategy.”

Continued Mr. Gilboa, “Our sensor solution to detect vulnerable road users (VRUs) such as pedestrians and cyclists, built upon our RF ADAS technology is also gaining further traction. We continue to engage in discussions with OEMs and tier-one suppliers, and in June we signed a preliminary agreement with a leading European-based automotive-technology ADAS provider, integrating our VRU detection solution within their ADAS sensor fusion platform, enhancing their sensor platform with non-line-of-sight VRU detection capabilities.”  

Concluded Mr. Gilboa, “Looking ahead, I am increasingly optimistic. I believe we are at a growth inflection point as we expand internationally, bringing an increasing number of fleets under the SaverOne protection umbrella.”


Recent Development


s


in the First Half of


2025

  • SaverOne Broadened its relationship with Cemex in a number of countries in Europe including Germany, Spain, Czech Republic and others. The continued expansion into new Cemex fleets demonstrates the effectiveness of SaverOne’s international expansion strategy, targeting and expanding within companies with fleets throughout the world.
  • SaverOne signed an agreement with Sdot Dan Regional Council to deploy the SaverOne System in its school bus fleet. Sdot Dan joins a group of other regional councils in Israel which aim to protect the transportation of students to local schools including Emek Yizrael, Mevo’ot Hermon and Mate Asher. This represents the growing recognition of leveraging technology for increasing safety of students by preventing driver distraction.
  • SaverOne signed a sales and marketing agreement with Florida-based TOJ Jax targeting major US trucking fleets marking the third distribution agreement signed in North America including other agreements signed recently in Canada with MRF Geosystems, and Motor Supply in 2024 covering 10 southern US states. This represents a further key strategic step for SaverOne’s US growth plans, providing access to major fleet customers with thousands of vehicles.
  • SaverOne was granted two new US patents: these patents out of SaverOne’s full IP portfolio of 23 demonstrate SaverOne’s technological leadership in mobile device detection and classification within vehicles. The new patents are entitled “System and Method for Classifying a Mode of Operation of a Mobile Communication Device in a Volume Based on Sensor Fusion” and “System and method for managing access to software applications on a mobile communication device via a phone location unit”.
  • SaverOne signed a preliminary agreement with a leading European-based automotive-technology provider, dedicated to providing sensor solutions. This collaboration represents a new and important strategic step for SaverOne’s VRU detection roadmap. The collaboration will integrate SaverOne’s Vulnerable Road User (VRU) detection solution with its ADAS sensor fusion platform, introducing a non-line-of-sight VRU detection capability to this ADAS sensor fusion platform.
  • SaverOne’s first distributor in the United States, Motor Supply, successfully completed its first pilot project with FedEx Trucking Contractor, MDM Trucking Express of Charlotte, North Carolina, and following rigorous testing, Motor Supply is moving forward with the installation of the SaverOne system across MDM’s entire fleet of 20 trucks.
  • SaverOne signed its first distribution agreement in Canada with Calgary-based MRF Geosystems Corporation. The agreement includes a six-month exclusivity period in the Alberta province, during which MRF is expected to achieve sales of at least 1,000 units.


Financial Summary


for


the


First Half of

Revenues increased 57% to NIS 756 thousand (~$224 thousand) in the first half of 2025 compared to NIS 483 thousand (~$143 thousand) for the first half of 2024. This increase was primarily due to the success of the Company’s efforts in penetrating global markets.

Gross profit was NIS 224 thousand (~$66 thousand), representing gross margin of 30% in the first half of 2025 compared to NIS 85 thousand (~$25 thousand), representing gross margin of 18%, in the first half of 2024.

Operating
loss was NIS 16.8 million (~$5.0 million) in the first half of 2025, compared to NIS 15.7 million (~$4.6 million) in the first half of 2024.

About
SaverOne’s
Systems 
SaverOne’s system is installed in vehicles to solve the problem of driver distraction as a result of drivers using distracting applications on their mobile phones while driving in a way that endangers their safety and the safety of their passengers. This phenomenon is considered one of the leading causes of global road accidents. According to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the annual cost of road accidents just in the United States stands at about $870 billion each year, excluding the costs of serious injury or death, with a quarter of those accidents estimated to be related to the use of the mobile phones while driving. SaverOne’s technology specifically recognizes the driver area in the vehicle. It prevents the driver from accessing distracting applications such as messaging while allowing others (navigation as an example) without user intervention or consent, creating a safer driving environment.

SaverOne’s primary target markets include commercial and private vehicle fleets interested in reducing potential damages and significant costs, vehicle manufacturers interested in integrating safety solutions into their vehicles, and insurance and leasing companies. SaverOne initially addresses car fleets with a focus on the Israeli, European, and US markets and other markets worldwide. SaverOne believes that an increased focus on monitoring and prevention of cellular distraction systems in vehicles, driven by upcoming expected EU regulation, will likely have a dramatic positive impact on the demand for its systems in the future.

The Company’s strategy is to provide its technology to customers in the aftermarket and address OEM vehicle manufacturers to integrate the Company’s protection technologies during the vehicle manufacturing process.

About SaverOne 
SaverOne is a technology company that designs, develops, and commercializes OEM and aftermarket solutions and technologies to lower the risk of and prevent vehicle accidents.

SaverOne’s initial product line is a suite of solutions that saves lives by preventing car accidents resulting from distraction from using mobile phones while driving. SaverOne is also developing a sensor system for early location and direction detection under all visibility conditions of vulnerable road users (VRU) through their cellphone footprint.

American Rebel Light Beer Launches in Indiana with Zink Distributing, Delivering Record-Breaking Market Penetration and On-Premise Momentum

Strategic Launch with Zink Distributing Drives Exceptional Sell Through Results for American Rebel Light Beer Across Indiana

Nashville, TN, Aug. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — American Rebel Light Beer (www.americanrebelbeer.com), the fastest-growing patriotic lifestyle beer in the U.S. and a division of American Rebel Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: AREB), officially rolled out in Indiana four weeks ago with Zink Distributing, delivering the brand’s most successful launch to date. In just under a month, American Rebel has achieved 10% market penetration in the Off-Premise channel—a standout performance in a beer market that’s trending downward nationwide.

Zink Distributing, founded in 2001, is the largest Anheuser-Busch wholesaler in Indiana, covering 16 counties including Marion, Hendricks, Hancock, Morgan, Vigo, Clay, Sullivan, Greene, and more. As the exclusive AB distributor for Indianapolis and surrounding regions, Zink is known for its operational excellence, retail execution, and commitment to community. With a portfolio that includes national brands and regional favorites, Zink has built a reputation for launching premium products with speed and scale—and American Rebel Light Beer is no exception.

“Zink Distributing didn’t just launch American Rebel—they lit a fire across Indiana,” said Todd Porter, President of American Rebel Beverage. “Their team executed with precision, passion, and a deep understanding of what it means to serve a patriotic crowd. This is the kind of launch that builds legends.”

Zink + American Rebel Light Beer: Accelerating Market Momentum

American Rebel Light Beer is gaining rapid traction across Indiana. In just four weeks, the brand has secured placements in hundreds of Off-Premise accounts throughout Zink Distributing’s territory, achieving 10% market penetration—a milestone typically reached only after multiple quarters of sustained effort. This early success highlights exceptional distributor execution, strong consumer demand, and a clear resonance with patriotic branding paired with premium taste. American Rebel’s velocity is outperforming regional benchmarks and generating repeat orders from retailers who are seeing immediate sell-through.

On-Premise Momentum

On-Premise accounts are also down nationally—but American Rebel is thriving. In Indiana, the brand is averaging 17 cases per point of distribution in bars, restaurants, and venues. That’s more than triple the volume seen in Off-Premise, signaling strong consumer pull and repeat velocity in high-traffic, high-engagement environments.

Stand Tall, Stand Proud and Be Loud – 16 oz Tall Boys Surge

American Rebel’s 16 oz “Stand Tall, Stand Proud and Be Loud” tall boys are leading the charge, accounting for nearly three-quarters of total volume sold since launch. Consumers are gravitating toward the bold packaging and larger format, making it a top seller in convenience stores, liquor stores, and high-energy bar venues. The tall boys are outperforming 12-pack 12 oz cans by a wide margin, and the momentum has prompted American Rebel to begin development of a 12-pack 16 oz format, slated to launch in spring 2026.

“When you crack open a 16 oz American Rebel, you’re not just drinking a beer—you’re standing for something,” said Andy Ross, CEO of American Rebel Holdings. “It’s bold, it’s loud, and it’s unapologetically American. That’s why it’s winning.”

Demand has been so strong that Zink Distributing has had to reorder tall boys to fill retail orders, after running out of product in their warehouse. The sell-through velocity has exceeded initial forecasts, with retailers requesting additional inventory to keep shelves stocked and cold boxes full.

Zink + American Rebel Light Beer: Accelerating Market Momentum at the 71st Annual Cornwell Quality Tools NHRA U.S. Nationals

Zink Distributing is playing a pivotal role in the successful launch of American Rebel Light Beer across Indianapolis, aligning retail expansion with the brand’s sponsorship of the 71st annual Cornwell Quality Tools NHRA U.S. Nationals. View the full press release Through strategic placements in top liquor stores and full-bar activations at Spykes, Rookies, and Raceway Pub, Zink delivered best-in-class coverage and velocity across 14 counties—solidifying American Rebel’s presence in the heartland.

FangDD Reports First Half 2025 Unaudited Financial Results

SHENZEN, China, Aug. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fangdd Network Group Ltd. (NASDAQ: DUO) (“FangDD” or “the Company”), a customer-oriented property technology company in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

First Half 2025 Financial Highlights

  • Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 45.3% to RMB203.4 million (US$28.4 million) from RMB140.0 million for the same period of 2024.
  • Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was RMB39.2 million (US$5.5 million), compared to net income of RMB16.4 million for the same period of 2024.
  • Non-GAAP net loss1 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was RMB39.2 million (US$5.5 million), compared to non-GAAP net income of RMB16.4 million for the same period of 2024.

First Half 2025 Operating Highlights

  • Total closed-loop GMV2 facilitated on the Company’s platform increased by 27.3% to RMB8.0 billion (US$1.1 billion) for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from RMB6.2 billion for the same period of 2024. The growth of closed-loop GMV was mainly attributed to supportive government policies, improving market conditions in China’s real estate sector, and the Company’s strengthened focus on development of its core projects and in-depth cooperation with reputable developers.

Mr. Xi Zeng, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of FangDD, commented, “In the first half of 2025, with continuous policy support, China’s real estate market showed signs of stabilization despite ongoing adjustments. According to National Bureau of Statistics of China, the sales area of new property in the first half of 2025 decreased by 3.5% year-over-year, and the sales revenue dropped by 5.5% year-over-year. The decline rate narrowed significantly compared with the same period of 2024, indicating that the market is gradually bottoming out. Amid this environment, FangDD has been strengthening development of core projects and in-depth cooperation with reputable developers and business partners. As a result, the GMV and revenue have both increased simultaneously. Meanwhile, the company is also continuously exploring and innovating in new business areas. Looking forward to the second half of the year, we expect ongoing policy support and improving financial conditions to further support industry recovery. The company will also continue to optimize costs and upgrade business structure to achieve balanced growth in scale and profit, and promote higher-quality development.”

First Half 2025 Financial Results


REVENUE


Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 45.3% to RMB203.4 million (US$28.4 million) from RMB140.0 million for the same period of 2024. This increase was mainly attributed to our commitment to deepening our core projects and establishing long-term stable business relationships with upstream and downstream partners. Additionally, a series of supportive policies, such as greater access to credit and funding for real estate developers, mortgage interest rate cuts, and lower down payments for home buyers, contributed to the improved real estate market.


COST OF REVENUE


Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 51.0% to RMB184.9 million (US$25.8 million) from RMB122.5 million for the same period of 2024. As our revenue increased, the commission fees paid to agents for their services in completing real estate transactions also increased proportionally.


GROSS PROFIT AND GROSS MARGIN


Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased by 5.7% to RMB18.5 million (US$2.6 million) from RMB17.5 million for the same period of 2024. Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 9.1%, compared to 12.5% for the same period of 2024. The decrease in gross margin was mainly due to a lower contribution from higher-margin value-added services.


OPERATING EXPENSES


Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025, which included nil share-based compensation expenses, increased by 4.8% to RMB90.2 million (US$12.6 million) from RMB86.1 million for the same period of 2024, which included share-based compensation expenses of RMB10.0 thousand.

  • Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased to RMB3.9 million (US$0.5 million) from RMB0.5 million for the same period of 2024. This increase was primarily due to the increased marketing costs in order to support our revenue growth.
  • Product development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 slightly increased to RMB12.7 million (US$1.8 million) from RMB12.0 million for the same period of 2024.
  • General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 remained at RMB73.6 million (US$10.3 million) as for the same period of 2024.


NET LOSS/INCOME

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was RMB39.2 million (US$5.5 million), compared to net income of RMB16.4 million for the same period of 2024.

Non-GAAP net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was RMB39.2 million (US$5.5 million), compared to non-GAAP net income of RMB16.4 million for the same period of 2024.


NET LOSS/INCOME PER SHARE


Basic and diluted net loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were RMB12.7 (US$1.8) and RMB9.7 (US$1.4), respectively. In comparison, the Company’s basic and diluted net income attributable to ordinary shareholders per share for the same period of 2024 were both RMB46.3.


LIQUIDITY


As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments of RMB188.1 million (US$26.3 million). For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net cash used in operating activities was RMB21.2 million (US$3.0 million).

Exchange Rate

This press release contains translations of certain Renminbi amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of readers. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from Renminbi to U.S. dollars, in this press release, were made at a rate of RMB7.1636 to US$1.00, the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Federal Reserve Board on June 30, 2025. The Company makes no representation that the Renminbi or U.S. dollar amounts referred could be converted into U.S. dollar or Renminbi, as the case may be, at any particular rate or at all.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP, this press release presents non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP net margin by excluding share-based compensation expenses from income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures are important to help investors understand the Company’s operating and financial performance, compare business trends among different reporting periods on a consistent basis and assess the Company’s core operating results, as they exclude certain expenses that are not expected to result in cash payments. Using the above non-GAAP financial measures has certain limitations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and will continue to be incurred in the future and are not reflected in the presentation of the non-GAAP financial measures, but should be considered in the overall evaluation of the Company’s results. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to financial measures prepared under GAAP, but should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared under GAAP. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures, which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance. Reconciliation of each of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth at the end of this release.

Blade Completes Sale of Passenger Business and Planned Name Change to Strata Critical Medical, Begins Trading Under Ticker Symbol SRTA

NEW YORK, Aug. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Strata Critical Medical, Inc. (Nasdaq: SRTA, “Strata” or the “Company”), formerly known as Blade Air Mobility, Inc. (Nasdaq: BLDE), today announced the successful closing of the previously announced divestiture of the Company’s Passenger business to Joby Aviation, Inc. (NYSE: JOBY). Joby has elected to pay the up-front consideration in stock. The Company may receive up to an additional $35.0 million in consideration based on maintaining certain employee retention and financial performance targets during the 18 and 12 months, respectively, following today’s closing, as well as the release of up to $10.0 million in indemnity holdbacks, payable in cash or stock at Joby’s election.

The Company’s re-branding to Strata Critical Medical is now complete and Strata will begin trading under the ticker symbol SRTA today.

“Our re-branding as Strata Critical Medical reflects the Company’s now 100% focus on the rapidly growing, contractual, and macro-non-correlated marketplaces for organ logistics and other medical services,” said Melissa Tomkiel, Co-CEO and General Counsel. “We’ve built the industry-leading organ transplant logistics and services platform, delivering rapid response times and cost efficiency while benefiting from the redundancy and unmatched scale of our coast-to-coast asset-light aircraft network.”

“Strata’s experience and track record providing mission-critical logistics to the organ transplant community provides the foundation for our growth plan in medical services and logistics more broadly,” said Co-CEO and CFO Will Heyburn. “Our ‘one-call’ logistics solution, where we procure a variety of additional services from third-parties on behalf of our customers, gives us a unique vantage point into a multitude of growth opportunities, which we will continue to pursue through organic growth, strategic partnerships and acquisitions, for which we are very well funded.”

As previously disclosed, we are updating our 2025 financial guidance to reflect the Passenger business divestiture throughout all periods in 2025. Beginning with our Q3 2025 earnings report, the Passenger business will be reported in discontinued operations.

For the full year 2025:

  • Revenue of $160-170 million
  • Double-digit Adjusted EBITDA(1)

Adjusted unallocated corporate expenses and software development costs are expected to decrease to a quarterly run rate of approximately $3.5 million in Q4 2025.

(1) We have not reconciled the forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA guidance included above to the most directly comparable GAAP measure because this cannot be done without unreasonable effort due to the variability and low visibility with respect to certain costs, the most significant of which are incentive compensation (including stock-based compensation), transaction-related expenses, certain fair value measurements, which are potential adjustments to future earnings. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable, and a potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.


Investor Day


Strata is planning an investor day to take place this fall. We will provide more information about this event over the coming weeks.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside Strata’s control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.

Additional factors can be found in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, each as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these events or how they may affect us. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and Strata undertakes no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, changes in expectations, future events or otherwise.
