In collaboration with SEALSQ, WISeSat.Space is bringing hardware-based trust and post-quantum cryptography into the design of satellite communications.

GENEVA, Switzerland, November 13, 2026 — WISeSat.Space Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: SAIQ), (“WISeSat.Space”), a space technology company, today outlined its approach to securing satellite communications across the entire network, from spacecraft and their communications links to mission control centers, ground stations and user terminals.

As satellite services become more important to telecommunications, financial infrastructure and defense, a compromise at any one of these points can disrupt services that people and institutions depend on.

The February 2022 cyberattack on Viasat’s KA-SAT network illustrated how a terrestrial compromise can interrupt satellite connectivity. The incident disrupted service for users in Ukraine and elsewhere in Europe. It underscored the importance of securing the systems that manage satellite networks and the terminals that connect customers to them. Communications links face a different set of risks, including radio-frequency interference, spoofing and the interception of unprotected data.

“Trust in satellite communications starts on Earth. Operators need to know that commands come from authorized sources, that terminals are genuine and that spacecraft are running trusted software. These requirements have to shape the mission before launch,” said Carlos Moreira, Founder and CEO of WISeSat.Space.

Building security into the mission before launch
Physical access to most satellites is impractical after launch. Some software can be updated remotely, but hardware defects are much harder to address, and recovery options depend on what engineers build into the spacecraft. WISeSat.Space’s development strategy is intended to emphasize pre-launch testing, verification of hardware and software supplied by third parties, and recovery planning for missions that must operate with intermittent contact.

The strategy builds on WISeSat.Space’s collaboration with its sister company, SEALSQ Corp (Nasdaq: LAES) (“SEALSQ”) which develops secure semiconductors, public key infrastructure (PKI) and post-quantum security products. In March 2026, WISeSat.Space’s parent company, WISeQey Corp. (WISeQey”) (Nasdaq/SIX: WQEY), a global quantum cybersecurity and space IoT company, announced the launch of a WISeSat satellite carrying SEALSQ’s QS7001 post-quantum security chip into low Earth orbit. That milestone marked an early flight-integration step and provides a basis for further testing and validation of post-quantum security hardware in future missions.

Three priorities for secure satellite communications

  • Hardware-based identity and post-quantum cryptography. Use hardware roots of trust to verify device identity and software integrity, and plan for the gradual introduction of post-quantum key establishment and digital signatures as equipment and mission requirements allow.
  • Stronger protection for ground networks and user terminals. Apply zero-trust principles in phases through device authentication, network segmentation and tightly controlled access to mission systems. Secure gateways can help operators introduce these controls alongside legacy equipment.
  • Onboard detection and resilient operations. Evaluate onboard anomaly detection, including machine learning where appropriate, to identify unusual behavior when ground contact is limited. Predefined safe modes and recovery procedures can help a spacecraft respond while operators assess the situation.

WISeSat.Space’s approach draws on industry guidance such as NIST IR 8401, which applies the Cybersecurity Framework to satellite ground-segment command and control. The company sees an opportunity to bring spacecraft operators, terminal manufacturers and secure semiconductor providers together earlier in mission design, when they can still make decisions about device identity, software updates and recovery that will shape operations for years.

About WISeSat.Space
WISeSat.Space Holdings Corp. (Nasdaq: SAIQ) is a space technology company focused on secure satellite communications and related space infrastructure. Its approach combines satellite infrastructure with cybersecurity and digital identity technologies to support trusted communications between connected devices and ground-based systems.

Second Consecutive Quarter of Profitability with Improving Gross Margins 
Expands Growth Pipeline with New Multi-Year Retail Partner Agreement

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SPAR Group, Inc. (OTCQB: SGRP) (“SGRP”, and together with its subsidiaries, “SPAR,” “SPAR Group” or the “Company”), an innovative services company offering comprehensive merchandising and sales solutions for retailers and brands throughout the United States and Canada, today reported financial results for the periods ended September 30, 2026.

William Linnane, President and Chief Executive Officer of SPAR Group, commented, “I am pleased with our progress in returning to profitability for the second consecutive quarter. Although lower remodel activity year over year impacted revenue in the U.S., sales growth in Canada and our continued focus on higher-quality revenue drove continued profitability, resulting in positive net income, stronger gross margins year on year, and a 47% increase in Adjusted EBITDA on a year-to-date basis. Importantly, after quarter-end, we signed a three-year services agreement with a national retailer for merchandising, store remodeling, and temporary labor services, beginning in 2027. We are building a business with greater earnings consistency, stronger customer relationships, an enhanced go to market approach, improved in store execution and improved operating leverage. As we look to quarter four 2026, and to full year 2027, we will leverage improved operating performance to generate consistent cash flow and to improve financial stability, leading to a strengthened balance sheet over time. This is a key strategic focus. The third quarter represents another significant step forward in SPAR’s transformation but there is more to do as we remain focused on increasing profitability, creating free cashflow and reducing debt.”

“At the same time, we continue to invest in strategic initiatives designed to accelerate future growth. Our strategic partnership with ReposiTrak combines advanced retail technology and data intelligence with SPAR’s nationwide execution platform to create a differentiated solution that helps retailers and consumer goods vendors to drive sales, improve on-shelf availability, increase labor efficiency, and enhance the consumer experience. Initial results from our joint go-to-market Touchless Retail approach have been very positive. More broadly, we expect that our work with ReposiTrak will lead to new go-to-market opportunities and will result in an improved operating model.” concluded Linnane.

Steven Hennen, Chief Financial Officer of SPAR Group, commented, “Our third quarter financial performance reflects continued progress against our strategic and financial objectives. Gross margin expanded to 18.9%, notwithstanding lower U.S. revenue, while disciplined cost management drove SG&A expenses down 39% from the prior year. As a result, we reported positive net income for the second consecutive quarter and generated $1.4 million in Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter. These results demonstrate the earnings potential of our merchandising-focused business model and the benefits of actions taken over the past year to improve operational efficiency and streamline the organization.”

“We believe our focus on recurring merchandising revenue, disciplined expense management, and operational execution positions SPAR to continue enhancing profitability and long-term shareholder returns,” concluded Hennen.

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

  • Net revenues were $33.5 million, down 19.0% year-over-year.
  • Gross Margin was 18.9% of sales, up from 18.6% of sales in the prior year, driven by the mix of services in the U.S.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses declined 39.0% year-over-year to $5.6 million, reflecting benefits from cost reduction initiatives and organizational restructuring.
  • Net income was $50 thousand, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($8.8) million, or ($0.37) per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted income per common share was $0.01 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of $(0.17) in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $1.4 million, compared to the prior year of $90 thousand.

Nine Months Ended 2026 Highlights

  • Net revenues were $101 million, down 11.5% year-over-year.
  • Gross Margin was 21.3% of sales, from 21.1% of sales in the prior year.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses declined 19.2% year-over-year to $18.6 million, reflecting benefits from cost reduction initiatives and organizational restructuring.
  • Net loss was ($94) thousand, or ($0.00) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($8.3) million, or ($0.35) per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted income per share was $0.04 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of ($0.14) in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $4.3 million, compared to the prior year of $2.9 million, up 47.3% year on year

Financial Position as of September 30, 2026

The Company ended the quarter with $4.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net cash used by operating activities was $7.2 million, driven by working capital intensity from the acceleration of growth initiatives.

2026 Financial Guidance

We are adjusting our full-year 2026 financial outlook to reflect our continued focus on higher-margin merchandising services and our current expectations for lower remodel activity this year. In addition, the guidance reflects some projects which have moved from 2026 to 2027, and a slowdown in certain retail sector capital spends as 2026 progressed. While this impacts revenue expectations, the gross margin enhancements year on year and the cost base reductions support our objective of improving earnings quality, profitability, and long-term shareholder value:

  • Net revenues in the range of $125 to $130 million compared to 2025 Net revenues of $136 million for the U.S. and Canada.
  • Gross margins of 20.0%-22.0%, versus 2025 Gross margin of 15.9% for the U.S. and Canada.
  • Selling, general, and administrative costs, excluding unusual items, of $23.5 to $25.0 million, versus 2025 of $32.2 million.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP net income attributable to SPAR Group and related per share amounts represent net income attributable to SPAR Group adjusted for the removal of a one-time positive adjustment. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before, as applicable from time to time, (i) depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, (ii) interest expense (iii) income tax expense, (iv) Board of Directors incremental compensation expense, (v) restructuring, (vi) impairment, (vii) nonrecurring legal settlement costs and associated legal expenses unrelated to the Company’s core operations, (viii) and special items as determined by management. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted net income attributable to SPAR Group and per share amounts, and Adjusted EBITDA because management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe that securities analysts, investors and others use these measures to evaluate companies in our industry. Our calculation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies. The following tables present a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to these measures for the periods presented:

Second Consecutive Quarter of Profitability with Improving Gross Margins 
Expands Growth Pipeline with New Multi-Year Retail Partner Agreement

CHARLOTTE, N.C., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SPAR Group, Inc. (OTCQB: SGRP) (“SGRP”, and together with its subsidiaries, “SPAR,” “SPAR Group” or the “Company”), an innovative services company offering comprehensive merchandising and sales solutions for retailers and brands throughout the United States and Canada, today reported financial results for the periods ended September 30, 2026.

William Linnane, President and Chief Executive Officer of SPAR Group, commented, “I am pleased with our progress in returning to profitability for the second consecutive quarter. Although lower remodel activity year over year impacted revenue in the U.S., sales growth in Canada and our continued focus on higher-quality revenue drove continued profitability, resulting in positive net income, stronger gross margins year on year, and a 47% increase in Adjusted EBITDA on a year-to-date basis. Importantly, after quarter-end, we signed a three-year services agreement with a national retailer for merchandising, store remodeling, and temporary labor services, beginning in 2027. We are building a business with greater earnings consistency, stronger customer relationships, an enhanced go to market approach, improved in store execution and improved operating leverage. As we look to quarter four 2026, and to full year 2027, we will leverage improved operating performance to generate consistent cash flow and to improve financial stability, leading to a strengthened balance sheet over time. This is a key strategic focus. The third quarter represents another significant step forward in SPAR’s transformation but there is more to do as we remain focused on increasing profitability, creating free cashflow and reducing debt.”

“At the same time, we continue to invest in strategic initiatives designed to accelerate future growth. Our strategic partnership with ReposiTrak combines advanced retail technology and data intelligence with SPAR’s nationwide execution platform to create a differentiated solution that helps retailers and consumer goods vendors to drive sales, improve on-shelf availability, increase labor efficiency, and enhance the consumer experience. Initial results from our joint go-to-market Touchless Retail approach have been very positive. More broadly, we expect that our work with ReposiTrak will lead to new go-to-market opportunities and will result in an improved operating model.” concluded Linnane.

Steven Hennen, Chief Financial Officer of SPAR Group, commented, “Our third quarter financial performance reflects continued progress against our strategic and financial objectives. Gross margin expanded to 18.9%, notwithstanding lower U.S. revenue, while disciplined cost management drove SG&A expenses down 39% from the prior year. As a result, we reported positive net income for the second consecutive quarter and generated $1.4 million in Adjusted EBITDA in the quarter. These results demonstrate the earnings potential of our merchandising-focused business model and the benefits of actions taken over the past year to improve operational efficiency and streamline the organization.”

“We believe our focus on recurring merchandising revenue, disciplined expense management, and operational execution positions SPAR to continue enhancing profitability and long-term shareholder returns,” concluded Hennen.

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

  • Net revenues were $33.5 million, down 19.0% year-over-year.
  • Gross Margin was 18.9% of sales, up from 18.6% of sales in the prior year, driven by the mix of services in the U.S.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses declined 39.0% year-over-year to $5.6 million, reflecting benefits from cost reduction initiatives and organizational restructuring.
  • Net income was $50 thousand, or $0.00 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($8.8) million, or ($0.37) per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted income per common share was $0.01 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of $(0.17) in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $1.4 million, compared to the prior year of $90 thousand.

Nine Months Ended 2026 Highlights

  • Net revenues were $101 million, down 11.5% year-over-year.
  • Gross Margin was 21.3% of sales, from 21.1% of sales in the prior year.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses declined 19.2% year-over-year to $18.6 million, reflecting benefits from cost reduction initiatives and organizational restructuring.
  • Net loss was ($94) thousand, or ($0.00) per diluted share, compared to a net loss of ($8.3) million, or ($0.35) per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted diluted income per share was $0.04 compared to adjusted diluted loss per share of ($0.14) in the prior year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA was $4.3 million, compared to the prior year of $2.9 million, up 47.3% year on year

Financial Position as of September 30, 2026

The Company ended the quarter with $4.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net cash used by operating activities was $7.2 million, driven by working capital intensity from the acceleration of growth initiatives.

2026 Financial Guidance

We are adjusting our full-year 2026 financial outlook to reflect our continued focus on higher-margin merchandising services and our current expectations for lower remodel activity this year. In addition, the guidance reflects some projects which have moved from 2026 to 2027, and a slowdown in certain retail sector capital spends as 2026 progressed. While this impacts revenue expectations, the gross margin enhancements year on year and the cost base reductions support our objective of improving earnings quality, profitability, and long-term shareholder value:

  • Net revenues in the range of $125 to $130 million compared to 2025 Net revenues of $136 million for the U.S. and Canada.
  • Gross margins of 20.0%-22.0%, versus 2025 Gross margin of 15.9% for the U.S. and Canada.
  • Selling, general, and administrative costs, excluding unusual items, of $23.5 to $25.0 million, versus 2025 of $32.2 million.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP net income attributable to SPAR Group and related per share amounts represent net income attributable to SPAR Group adjusted for the removal of a one-time positive adjustment. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before, as applicable from time to time, (i) depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, (ii) interest expense (iii) income tax expense, (iv) Board of Directors incremental compensation expense, (v) restructuring, (vi) impairment, (vii) nonrecurring legal settlement costs and associated legal expenses unrelated to the Company’s core operations, (viii) and special items as determined by management. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted net income attributable to SPAR Group and per share amounts, and Adjusted EBITDA because management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe that securities analysts, investors and others use these measures to evaluate companies in our industry. Our calculation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly named measures reported by other companies.

Webinar to be held today at 11:00 am Eastern Time

NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Our Bond, Inc. (“Bond”) (NASDAQ: OBAI), the creator of the world’s first AI-powered Preventative Personal Security platform adopted by leading multinational companies, today provided a business update and reported financial results for the third quarter of 2026 ended September 30, 2026. The Company will host a live webinar today, November 13, 2026, at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, which will be available by accessing the following link:  https://ourbond.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4ExkGI4JSG-rJUZeb3awsA.

Third Quarter 2026 Business Highlights:

  • Signed a definitive citywide agreement with the City of Jerusalem to protect approximately 10,000 municipal workers, following the city’s designation of Bond as a sole supplier.
  • Entered the U.S. real estate market through Watson Realty Corp., one of the largest independent residential brokerages in the Southeast, which made Bond standard for its approximately 800 agents across Florida and Georgia.
  • Launched Bond’s first major awareness and lead generation campaign in five years at Global Security Exchange (GSX) 2026, drawing visitors from more than 1,000 corporations and government agencies and adding more than 50 enterprise and government opportunities of more than 10,000 people each to the pipeline.
  • Received an independent economic impact assessment from a Big Four Accounting and Consulting firm estimating that Bond generates approximately $181 in annual economic benefit per employee at current adoption levels, rising to approximately $280 per employee as adoption increases.
  • Partnered with a leading international university to make Bond available to approximately 4,000 students, faculty and staff.

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights:

  • Subscription (SaaS) revenue from Bond’s cloud-based, AI-powered Preventative Personal Security platform increased approximately 41% year-over-year and approximately 40% sequentially to $526,000, and grew to approximately 21% of total revenue from approximately 14% a year earlier.
  • Total revenue increased approximately 19% sequentially to $2.5 million.
  • Total bookings of $3.1 million, an increase of approximately 19% from $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2025.
  • Deferred revenue of $1.2 million as of September 30, 2026, more than double the $562,000 at December 31, 2025 and up approximately 94% from $636,000 at June 30, 2026.

“Our third quarter results show that our strategy is working,” said Doron Kempel, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Bond. “Subscription revenue, the foundation of our long-term model, grew 41% from a year ago and 40% from the second quarter, and bookings and deferred revenue point to continued growth ahead. With the balance sheet realignment we announced on November 2, Bond now has very limited debt, a far stronger balance sheet, and our focus is on converting the pipeline we have built through our investments in sales and marketing into recurring revenue.”

2026 Third Quarter Financial Results

  • Total revenue was approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of approximately 19% from approximately $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2026, compared to approximately $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Year-over-year, revenue from Bond’s cloud-based, AI-powered Preventative Personal Security services increased approximately 41%, while revenue from its less strategically significant physical security services declined approximately 16%, consistent with Bond’s focus on recurring subscription revenue.
  • Annual recurring revenue (ARR) was approximately $10 million.
  • Operating expenses were approximately $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to approximately $3.8 million in the second quarter of 2026. The increase primarily reflects continued investment in sales and marketing, which rose to approximately $1.0 million from approximately $0.7 million in the second quarter.
  • Net loss was approximately $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to approximately $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2026.
  • Cash and cash equivalents were $2.2 million as of September 30, 2026. Subsequent to quarter end, Bond secured an agreement for up to $10 million of new equity capital at a premium to market, as described below.

Recent Developments

On November 12, 2026, Bond announced approximately 60% adoption among residents introduced to its pioneering city-funded personal security program in a municipality of approximately 270,000 residents, roughly 12 times the industry average. With local schools now introducing the service to students ages 8 to 18, Bond is advancing its business-to-government-to-consumer (B2G2C) growth strategy, with discussions underway with approximately 20 cities across France and Israel and the launch of outreach efforts targeting municipalities across the United States.

On November 11, 2026, Bond announced plans to accelerate the expansion of its established executive protection business, leveraging its proprietary AI-powered technology, elite tactical expertise, and global operations to provide comprehensive security for corporate executives and their families. Building on existing relationships with leading multinational corporations, the expansion is expected to create additional revenue opportunities while deepening customer relationships. To spearhead the initiative, Bond added a former U.S. Secret Service Special Agent with extensive executive protection experience in the public and private sector.

On November 11, 2026, Bond announced plans to reduce annualized operating costs by approximately $6million, including $3 million in recurring savings driven by AI, automation, and operational efficiencies, and the elimination of $3 million in nonrecurring 2026 expenses. The Company also projected 50% revenue growth in 2027, leveraging its existing infrastructure to scale without proportionate increases in operating costs, accelerating its path toward positive cash flow.

On November 2, 2026, Bond announced a balance sheet realignment under which Ascent Partners Fund LLC agreed to invest up to $10 million in Bond common stock at $2.75 per share, a 23% premium to market, and Ascent and Eastward Fund Management, LLC agreed to convert approximately $15 million of debt and preferred stock into equity, eliminating most of Bond’s outstanding debt. The conversions eliminate the interest and cash dividend payments attached to those securities. The realignment is expected to give Bond positive stockholders’ equity of at least $2.5 million and a clear path to regaining full compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements. Furthermore, since the effective date of its 1-for-20 reverse stock split on October 19, 2026, Bond’s common stock has maintained a closing bid price above $1.00 per share on each trading day. Accordingly, the Company received formal notification from Nasdaq on November 2, 2026, confirming that it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) and that the matter is now closed.

On October 20, 2026, Bond announced that an S&P 500 financial technology company selected Bond to provide personal security services for its executives and at-risk employees, with the potential to expand across the company’s broader workforce.

On October 19, 2026, Bond announced that more than 70% of eligible municipal welfare workers in Jerusalem had onboarded Bond in the first phase of its citywide rollout. Bond estimates that first-generation panic button applications offered by U.S. employers on a voluntary basis see average adoption of approximately 5%.

On October 1, 2026, Bond reported strong follow-up with corporate and government prospects met at GSX 2026 and ongoing discussions with officials in approximately 20 cities. In one city that funds Bond for its population, approximately 60% of people offered the service have onboarded.

INLIGHT Phase 1 data continue to support WVE-007’s novel mechanism of action to improve body composition by inducing fat loss without muscle loss, and support a once- or twice-yearly dosing regimen

Six-month data from ongoing Phase 2a monotherapy trial in individuals with high BMI, high adiposity, and comorbidities anticipated in 2027

WVE-007/tirzepatide combination trial ongoing; Wave announces plan to integrate its maintenance clinical trial with this ongoing combination trial

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wave Life Sciences, Inc. (Nasdaq: WVE), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on unlocking the broad potential of RNA medicines to transform human health, today highlights WVE-007 progress at ObesityWeek®, the annual congress of The Obesity Society, taking place in Washington, D.C. from November 14-17, 2026. WVE-007 is an investigational GalNac-siRNA developed with Wave’s proprietary chemistry to target fat metabolism through silencing INHBE mRNA.

“At this year’s ObesityWeek annual meeting, we will be connecting with the healthcare providers and broader community driving the future of obesity care, and we are eager to share how a body composition–focused approach could address the treatment gaps that exist today for individuals living with obesity,” said Christopher Wright, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer at Wave Life Sciences. “The Phase 1 single-dose portion of our INLIGHT clinical trial continues to demonstrate that WVE-007 impacts the desired biology with potent, durable Activin E reductions leading to body composition improvements and a favorable safety profile. We continue to advance our ongoing higher BMI Phase 2a monotherapy trial, which is evaluating WVE-007’s potential to expand the treatment landscape for obesity, particularly for individuals who need an alternative to incretins. We expect six-month follow-up data in 2027, which will include body composition measurements as well as liver fat changes that could accelerate development in MASH. In parallel, we are also investigating WVE-007 as a complementary approach to enhance fat loss with incretins, and as a post-incretin weight maintenance strategy. We look forward to engaging with the community and highlighting the progress of our INLIGHT™ clinical trial.”

This presentation will feature discussion on the current obesity treatment landscape and the potential for new therapeutic approaches to address key limitations of chronic weight management. The session includes discussion from leading clinicians on why improving body composition, including reducing harmful visceral fat while preserving lean mass, may serve as an important measure of meaningful change. Wave will also present an overview of the WVE-007 clinical program.

WVE-007 clinical program updates

The ongoing Phase 1 portion of the INLIGHT™ clinical trial is evaluating single doses of WVE-007 in otherwise healthy individuals living with overweight or obesity. WVE-007 continues to be generally safe and well tolerated, with no discontinuations, and no drug-related serious adverse events. There were no clinically meaningful changes in clinical laboratory measurements, including lipid profiles or liver function tests.

Individuals in the top three dose cohorts (240 mg, 400 mg, 600 mg) are being followed through the final 12-month assessment timepoint. To date, single-dose Activin E reductions are durable, dose-dependent, and consistently above therapeutic threshold, with mean maximums of 82%, 84%, and 88%, respectively. In the 240 mg cohort, for which all subjects have reached one year follow-up, single-dose placebo-adjusted mean Activin E reductions from baseline remained significant.

While Activin E reductions were consistent and deep across cohorts, both preclinical and Phase 1 clinical data continue to indicate baseline body composition (higher BMI, higher adiposity) is associated with greater therapeutic effects. The average baseline BMI in the Phase 1 study is 31.7 kg/m2 and continues to be lower than Phase 2 and 3 obesity trials.

In the 240 mg cohort, which had the highest baseline BMI, placebo-adjusted reductions in visceral fat, total fat, and waist circumference, with preservation of lean mass continued to be observed one year following a single dose. The 400 mg and 600 mg cohorts had lower baseline BMI. Data from the 600 mg cohort at six months was similar to previously-reported 400 mg data, with placebo-adjusted reductions in visceral fat and waist circumference and preservation of lean mass, while total fat remained relatively unchanged. Across the three cohorts, individuals with higher BMI and higher baseline adiposity continued to have a more pronounced treatment effect.

The Phase 2a portion of the INLIGHT™ trial in individuals with higher BMI (35-50 kg/m²) and higher baseline adiposity, with and without type 2 diabetes, is ongoing, evaluating multiple doses of the 240 mg and 400 mg dose levels of WVE-007. To date, baseline adiposity in this trial is substantially higher than in the Phase 1 portion and in line with Phase 2 and 3 trials in individuals living with obesity. The trial includes multiple assessments over a 12-month period, including body weight, waist circumference, body composition (MRI and DEXA), liver fat (MRI-PDFF), HbA1c, and lipid levels. These data will inform further development of WVE-007 in obesity, as well as in MASH, type 2 diabetes, and other cardiometabolic diseases. Wave expects to deliver six-month data from its Phase 2a trial in 2027.

Wave has also initiated a Phase 2a combination trial evaluating WVE-007 with weekly tirzepatide compared to tirzepatide alone in individuals living with obesity (BMI 35-50 kg/m²) and type 2 diabetes. Today, Wave is announcing its plan to integrate its maintenance clinical trial with this ongoing combination trial, which is expected to enhance operational efficiencies and accelerate time to data.
