Advisory

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures: Throughout this press release and in other materials disclosed by the Company, we employ certain measures to analyze financial performance, financial position, and cash flow. These non-IFRS and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other issuers. The non-IFRS and other financial measures should not be considered to be more meaningful than financial measures which are determined in accordance with IFRS, such as net income (loss), oil and natural gas sales revenue and net cash provided by (used in) operating activities as indicators of our performance.

“Non-current financial liabilities” is a supplemental financial measure. Non-current financial liabilities is comprised of the non-current portions of trade and other payables, loans, notes payable and lease liabilities as presented in the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position. See “Summary of Financial Information”.

“Operating netback” is a non-IFRS measure. Operating netback is comprised of oil and natural gas sales revenue less export tax, royalties and turnover tax and operating costs. Management believes this measure is a useful supplemental measure of the Company’s profitability relative to commodity prices. See “Results of Operations – Operating Netback” for a reconciliation of operating netback to oil and natural gas sales revenue, being our nearest measure prescribed by IFRS.

“Operating netback per BOE” is a non-IFRS ratio. Operating netback per BOE is comprised of operating netback divided by total BOE sales volumes in the period. Management believes this measure is a useful supplemental measure of the Company’s profitability relative to commodity prices. In addition, management believes that operating netback per BOE is a key industry performance measure of operational efficiency and provides investors with information that is also commonly presented by other crude oil and natural gas producers. Operating netback is a non-IFRS measure. See “Results of Operations – Operating Netback” for the calculation of operating netback per BOE.

“Working capital (deficiency / deficit)” is a capital management measure. Working capital is comprised of current assets less current liabilities. Management believes that working capital is a useful measure to assess the Company’s capital position and its ability to execute its existing exploration commitments and its share of any development programs. See “Summary of Financial Information” for a reconciliation of working capital to current assets and current liabilities, being our nearest measures prescribed by IFRS.

Abbreviations and BOE Presentation: “bbl” means barrel; “bbls” means barrels; “BOE” means barrels of oil equivalent; “mcf” means thousand cubic feet; “NGL” means natural gas liquids; and “UTE” means Union Transitoria de Empresas, which is a registered joint venture contract established under the laws of Argentina. All BOE conversions in this press release are derived by converting natural gas to oil in the ratio of six mcf of gas to one bbl of oil. BOE may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A BOE conversion ratio of six mcf of gas to one bbl of oil (6 mcf: 1 bbl) is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. Given that the value ratio based on the price of crude oil as compared to natural gas in Argentina from time to time may be different from the energy equivalency conversion ratio of 6:1, utilizing a conversion on a 6:1 basis may be misleading as an indication of value.

The quarter’s results reflect Syntec’s expanding role in next-generation bipartisan defense and space technologies, including continued growth in major programs of national importance like Artemis III, low-Earth orbit reconnaissance, satellite collision-avoidance, and AR/VR soldier gear. Syntec combined these achievements with lower selling, general, and administrative expenses. Overall cash reserves strengthened, growing by $0.3 million.

“We are excited to be moving quickly with a well-disciplined execution plan, adding proven pioneering programs to existing customer products, all typical with a 7-10 year product life cycle and needing replacement over time,” said Matt Carey, Vice President of Business Development.

Gross profit for the quarter increased 127% year over year to $1.9 million. Gross margin nearly doubled compared with the prior-year quarter. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $1.7 million, reduced by $0.3 million from the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $0.9 million, or 10% of revenue, compared with approximately break-even and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of nearly 0% in the prior-year quarter. 

Beginning this quarter, we are presenting revenue across five end markets: Space Tech, Defense Tech, Life Sciences, AI Data Center, and Other Scientific Instruments. These categories will provide greater visibility into the markets served by our products and the demand drivers affecting our business going forward. Space Tech includes space-related communications, orbital safety, reconnaissance, and rockets. Defense Tech covers bipartisan, cross-administration, proven next-gen AI-driven AR/VR connected battlefield, night-vision, and other soldier gear. Together, Space Tech and Defense Tech represent 64% of our third-quarter revenues and are expected to continue driving our success in subsequent quarters.

Our fastest-growing end market is space technology. Syntec is excited to share that Space Tech revenue increased 117% year over year to $1.3 million. In Q3, Space Tech represented 15% of quarterly revenue and was the fastest-growing segment for the quarter. Our space products support low-Earth-orbiting satellites, debris detection and collision avoidance, reconnaissance, and lunar rocket hardware. In Q3, we announced orders that expand our participation in orbital safety and government satellite reconnaissance. These new product lines broaden our space business across multiple customer programs and mission requirements.

After quarter-end, we announced orders for a new program for our actuator products to support NASA’s Artemis III rockets. This program extends our space portfolio from satellites into hardware supporting lunar missions.

Defense Tech revenues increased 31% year over year to $4.2 million. This represents 49% of quarterly revenue. Our products support AI-enabled AR/VR soldier systems, night vision, missile guidance, and laser targeting products. Announcements during the year included camera and display-window products for military wearable systems, demonstrating expanded participation in customer platforms. Growth across established and newer applications supports our focus on supplying mission-critical products throughout customer program life cycles.

Our Life Sciences revenue increased 12% year over year to $2.7 million, representing 31% of quarterly revenue. Our product lines in this market serve blood diagnostics for early detection of disease, biomedical illumination and visualization, surgical robotics, DNA sequencing, ophthalmology, and veterinary care. These programs provide a substantial revenue base alongside our expanding defense and space base, giving Syntec a more diverse product mix.

AI Data Center revenue was $0.2 million. We expect this category to grow in the coming years as our products are deployed across multiple value chains within the data center. Activities include precision micro-connectors for transceivers and photonic integrated circuits, as well as optics supporting emerging orbital and earth-based fusion energy. A massive energy shortage is predicted by nearly all analysts, and Syntec plans to participate in next-generation products with cutting-edge pioneers. In August, we reported approximately $4.0 million in cumulative orders across the broader AI infrastructure “picks and shovels” opportunity since entering that market roughly two years ago.

Other scientific instruments revenue, which includes products for quantum computing applications, was $0.2 million.

The Company ended the quarter with $14.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, up from $14.0 million at the end of the second quarter. Operating activities generated $1.3 million of cash during the first nine months of the year.  “Our strong cash position gives us the flexibility to invest alongside our customers as their next-generation technologies ramp up to high production volumes for 7-10 year product life cycles,” said Dean Rudy, Chief Financial Officer. “We see an opportunity to build on our momentum in defense and space by expanding our manufacturing capabilities, utilizing our open capacity, and pursuing complementary growth opportunities. Our focus is on translating that opportunity into sustained revenue growth and stronger profitability.”

In the fourth quarter and beyond, the company continues to add new programs to utilize our open capacity for long product life cycles.

ROCHESTER, NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Syntec Optics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: OPTX) (“Syntec Optics” or the “Company”), a provider of deep-tech products to industry pioneers connecting and protecting the world, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026. Supporting mission-critical applications ranging from low-Earth-orbit satellites and bipartisan connected-battlefield defense platforms to life sciences, Syntec delivered an all-time high revenue of $8.5 million, up 23% year over year, and net income improved by $1.6 million to a positive net income of $0.2 million, compared with a $1.4 million net loss in the prior-year quarter. The quarter’s results reflect Syntec’s expanding role in next-generation bipartisan defense and space technologies, including continued growth in major programs of national importance like Artemis III, low-Earth orbit reconnaissance, satellite collision-avoidance, and AR/VR soldier gear. Syntec combined these achievements with lower selling, general, and administrative expenses. Overall cash reserves strengthened, growing by $0.3 million.

“We are excited to be moving quickly with a well-disciplined execution plan, adding proven pioneering programs to existing customer products, all typical with a 7-10 year product life cycle and needing replacement over time,” said Matt Carey, Vice President of Business Development.

Gross profit for the quarter increased 127% year over year to $1.9 million. Gross margin nearly doubled compared with the prior-year quarter. Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $1.7 million, reduced by $0.3 million from the prior-year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $0.9 million, or 10% of revenue, compared with approximately break-even and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of nearly 0% in the prior-year quarter. 

Beginning this quarter, we are presenting revenue across five end markets: Space Tech, Defense Tech, Life Sciences, AI Data Center, and Other Scientific Instruments. These categories will provide greater visibility into the markets served by our products and the demand drivers affecting our business going forward. Space Tech includes space-related communications, orbital safety, reconnaissance, and rockets. Defense Tech covers bipartisan, cross-administration, proven next-gen AI-driven AR/VR connected battlefield, night-vision, and other soldier gear. Together, Space Tech and Defense Tech represent 64% of our third-quarter revenues and are expected to continue driving our success in subsequent quarters.

Our fastest-growing end market is space technology. Syntec is excited to share that Space Tech revenue increased 117% year over year to $1.3 million. In Q3, Space Tech represented 15% of quarterly revenue and was the fastest-growing segment for the quarter. Our space products support low-Earth-orbiting satellites, debris detection and collision avoidance, reconnaissance, and lunar rocket hardware. In Q3, we announced orders that expand our participation in orbital safety and government satellite reconnaissance. These new product lines broaden our space business across multiple customer programs and mission requirements.

After quarter-end, we announced orders for a new program for our actuator products to support NASA’s Artemis III rockets. This program extends our space portfolio from satellites into hardware supporting lunar missions.

Defense Tech revenues increased 31% year over year to $4.2 million. This represents 49% of quarterly revenue. Our products support AI-enabled AR/VR soldier systems, night vision, missile guidance, and laser targeting products. Announcements during the year included camera and display-window products for military wearable systems, demonstrating expanded participation in customer platforms. Growth across established and newer applications supports our focus on supplying mission-critical products throughout customer program life cycles.

Our Life Sciences revenue increased 12% year over year to $2.7 million, representing 31% of quarterly revenue. Our product lines in this market serve blood diagnostics for early detection of disease, biomedical illumination and visualization, surgical robotics, DNA sequencing, ophthalmology, and veterinary care. These programs provide a substantial revenue base alongside our expanding defense and space base, giving Syntec a more diverse product mix.

AI Data Center revenue was $0.2 million. We expect this category to grow in the coming years as our products are deployed across multiple value chains within the data center. Activities include precision micro-connectors for transceivers and photonic integrated circuits, as well as optics supporting emerging orbital and earth-based fusion energy. A massive energy shortage is predicted by nearly all analysts, and Syntec plans to participate in next-generation products with cutting-edge pioneers. In August, we reported approximately $4.0 million in cumulative orders across the broader AI infrastructure “picks and shovels” opportunity since entering that market roughly two years ago.

Other scientific instruments revenue, which includes products for quantum computing applications, was $0.2 million.

The Company ended the quarter with $14.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, up from $14.0 million at the end of the second quarter. Operating activities generated $1.3 million of cash during the first nine months of the year.  “Our strong cash position gives us the flexibility to invest alongside our customers as their next-generation technologies ramp up to high production volumes for 7-10 year product life cycles,” said Dean Rudy, Chief Financial Officer. “We see an opportunity to build on our momentum in defense and space by expanding our manufacturing capabilities, utilizing our open capacity, and pursuing complementary growth opportunities. Our focus is on translating that opportunity into sustained revenue growth and stronger profitability.”

In the fourth quarter and beyond, the company continues to add new programs to utilize our open capacity for long product life cycles.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Christina Lake Cannabis Corp. (the “Company” or “CLC”) (CSE: CLC) (OTCQB: CLCFF) (FRANKFURT: CLB) announces that its Board of Directors has appointed Nicco Dehaan, the Company’s co-founder and Chief Operating Officer, as Chief Executive Officer, effective November 13, 2026. Mr. Dehaan succeeds Mark Aiken, who is moving on to pursue other opportunities.

The appointment follows the Board’s decision, announced November 10, 2026, that CLC will remain independent and pursue its standalone plan: a sharper focus on the cultivation and sale of cannabis flower, lower costs, increased cultivation capacity and continued debt repayment. With that plan centred on CLC’s farms, the Board believes the Company is best led by the executive who built and runs them.

Mr. Dehaan co-founded CLC and has served as a director since 2019. As COO and Master Grower, he has overseen cultivation, processing and production across the Company’s Christina Lake and Midway properties and has worked closely on sales and product strategy. He will continue to serve as Chief Operating Officer and as a director.

“Having chosen to remain independent, our priority now is execution – getting the most out of the land, facilities and people we already have,” said Jay McMillan, Chairman of the Board. “Nicco knows this business from the ground up. He helped build it, and he led the operations behind our strong harvest this year. He is the right person to take CLC into its next phase. On behalf of the Board, I thank Mark for his leadership over the past four years, and wish him every success.”

“I’m proud to lead the company I helped found,” said Mr. Dehaan. “We have excellent land, proven infrastructure and a team that delivered a strong harvest this year. My priorities are clear: grow more high-quality flower from the assets we already own, keep costs down, continue paying down debt and build value for our shareholders. I look forward to working with our team and the Board to get it done.”

About Christina Lake Cannabis Corp.

HOUSTON, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cerenome, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNSY) (“Cerenome” or the “Company”), a CNS oncology company advancing an integrated platform that combines precision diagnostics, targeted radiopharmaceuticals, and artificial intelligence, announces financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provides an overview of recent business progress.

“Recognition of our first quarter of CNSide® diagnostic revenue and commercial payments beginning in October is a tremendous landmark,” said Marc H. Hedrick, M.D., Cerenome’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Furthermore, our payer universe continues to expand with now about 80% of U.S. private payers representing approximately 190 million covered lives. Most recently, with Aetna coverage, it gives physicians an in-network option for both tumor cell enumeration and molecular profiling. In parallel, our growing commercial team is focused on helping more cancer centers use our test in patient care. In therapeutics, we materially advanced our two key programs by completing enrollment in our Phase 2 trial in adults with recurrent glioblastoma, opening up higher dose cohorts in the repeat dosing of REYOBIQ™ in patients with leptomeningeal metastases and reporting interim data in that trial.”

Q3 2026 AND RECENT HIGHLIGHTS

Corporate

  • During the quarter, Plus Therapeutics rebranded as Cerenome, and on August 3 its common stock began trading on Nasdaq under the symbol CNSY. The new name and brand reflect the Company’s focus on integrating CNS diagnostics, therapeutics, and data.
  • In November, Ron Andrews was appointed as Chief Business Officer to advance CNSide commercial adoption and strategic partnerships. Mr. Andrews continues to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors.

CNSide® CSF Assay Platform

  • The company submitted billing claims for approximately $1.55 million in gross billings at list prices and recognized $0.7 million in net diagnostic revenue in the quarter after estimated payer adjustments and price concessions.
  • Contracted coverage was expanded through agreements with Medical Mutual, Health Care Service Corporation and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan.
  • Secured in-network agreements were also made with Florida Blue and Aetna. The Aetna agreement, effective November 1, is the first national CNSide payer agreement to include both tumor cell enumeration and molecular profiling. The Company’s aggregate contracted footprint now represents approximately 190 million covered lives.
  • The company entered into a collaboration with Genomic Testing Cooperative to add DNA and RNA profiling to CNSide. In July, the Company also highlighted updated NCCN CNS Cancers Guidelines recognizing a role for CSF analysis in the assessment of LM.
  • XiFin was selected for revenue cycle management and clearinghouse services, and Samantha Fowlkes was appointed as Vice President and Head of Commercial Sales for CNSide Diagnostics.
  • The Company is on track for Medicare reimbursement in 1st half of 2027 and is separately pursuing a coverage determination from Novitas Solutions.
  • CNSide CSF Molecular Profile tests were launched for solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. The test was available to order beginning October 12, providing DNA and RNA profiling from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). CNSide can be ordered independently or alongside tumor cell enumeration.

REYOBIQ™ Development

  • The company presented interim Phase 1 ReSPECT-LM (multi-dose) findings at the Society of Neuro Oncology Annual meeting in November. The first 10 patients have been treated with repeated intraventricular doses of REYOBIQ, with no dose-limiting toxicities or treatment discontinuations due to adverse events reported. This highlights the potential for REYOBIQ to safely administer higher dose of tumor-destroying radiation (compared to single-dose study). Dose escalation is ongoing to identify a recommended multiple-dose regimen for a follow-on randomized study.
  • Also, enrollment was completed in the Phase 2 ReSPECT-GBM study in recurrent glioblastoma in October. Cerenome expects topline data in mid-2027 following additional patient follow-up, and plans to hold an End-of-Phase 2 meeting with the FDA thereafter.
  • Investigators reported preclinical data at the Rivkin Ovarian Cancer Research Symposium in October showing the active agent in REYOBIQ was associated with a new mechanism of action, namely positively impacting the tumor environment. The net effect described by investigators was administering REYOBIQ along with anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade enhanced antitumor activity in these preclinical studies, opening up the possibility of novel combination therapies.
  • Investigators presented pharmacokinetic, dosimetry, and safety observations from the ReSPECT-LM program at the SNO/ASCO CNS Metastases Conference in August. A separate presentation examined the potential health economic impact of earlier detection of leptomeningeal metastases (LM) using CNSide.

THIRD QUARTER 2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS

  • Cash, cash equivalents and investments totaled $4.9 million as of September 30, 2026, compared with $8.6 million as of June 30, 2026. In September, the Company announced closing a senior secured financing facility up to $20 million with royalty-based repayments. In addition, the Company raised $3.8M under the Equity Distribution Agreement subsequent to the end of the quarter.
  • Total revenue was $0.7 million, consisting entirely of net diagnostic revenue.
  • Cost of revenue was $0.9 million. Research and development expense was $2.1 million, compared with $2.4 million a year earlier. Selling, general and administrative expense was $5.2 million, compared with $3.4 million a year earlier.
  • Operating loss was $7.5 million, compared with $4.5 million a year earlier. Net loss was $8.7 million, or $1.14 per share, compared with $4.4 million, or $1.03 per share, a year earlier.

ANTICIPATED MILESTONES AND OUTLOOK FOR 2027

CNSide Commercial Rollout

  • Expand CNSide adoption across cancer centers, build-out the field sales team, enhance the testing menu and build on existing payer collection experience across the CNSide test menu.

REYOBIQ Clinical Program

  • Continue dose escalation in LM Multi-dose study and follow patients in ReSPECT-GBM for the anticipated mid-2027 topline readouts from both trials.

About Leptomeningeal metastases (LM)
Leptomeningeal metastases (LM) are a rare but severe complication of advanced cancer, affecting the fluid-lined structures of the central nervous system. LM occurs in approximately 5% of patients with metastatic cancer, with breast cancer, lung cancer, and melanoma being the most common sources. Median survival is typically 2-6 months, and effective treatment options are limited, highlighting the urgent need for novel therapies.

About REYOBIQ™ (rhenium Re186 obisbemeda)
REYOBIQ (rhenium Re186 obisbemeda) is a novel injectable radiotherapy specifically formulated to deliver direct targeted high-dose radiation in CNS tumors in a safe, effective, and convenient manner to optimize patient outcomes. REYOBIQ has the potential to reduce off-target risks and improve outcomes for CNS cancer patients versus currently approved therapies, with a more targeted and potent radiation dose. Rhenium-186 is an ideal radioisotope for CNS therapeutic applications due to its short half-life, beta energy for destroying cancerous tissue, and gamma energy for real-time imaging. REYOBIQ is being evaluated for the treatment of recurrent glioblastoma, leptomeningeal metastases, and pediatric brain cancer in the ReSPECT-GBM, ReSPECT-LM, and ReSPECT-PBC clinical trials, respectively. ReSPECT-GBM is supported by an award from the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH), and ReSPECT-LM is funded by a three-year $17.6 million grant from the Cancer Prevention & Research Institute of Texas (CPRIT). The Company’s ReSPECT-PBC clinical trial for pediatric brain cancer is supported by a $3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Defense’s Peer Reviewed Cancer Research Program.

FDA Fast Track Designation for Plinabulin plus docetaxel marks key regulatory milestone in DUBLIN-4 study population of Post-ICI Non-Squamous NSCLC with no actionable genomic alteration (AGA)

Strategic transaction with Biolin provides data from approximately half of DUBLIN-4’s 442 patients and supports the planned interim analysis at 221 PFS events

FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BeyondSpring Inc. (NASDAQ: BYSI) (“BeyondSpring” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage company developing innovative therapies for the treatment of cancer and other diseases, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, and provided a corporate update highlighting regulatory and strategic progress for Plinabulin and its global Phase 3 DUBLIN-4 trial.

“The third quarter marked an important regulatory and strategic step forward for Plinabulin,” said Min Qiu, Chief Executive Officer of BeyondSpring. “The FDA’s Fast Track designation underscores the significant unmet need for new treatment options for NSCLC patients without AGA and progressing after immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy, where docetaxel is still the standard of care.  Plinabulin has been shown to improve the tolerability and dose intensity of docetaxel and demonstrated a long-term survival benefit in the previous successful DUBLIN-3 study in second- and third-line EGFR wild-type NSCLC, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine in 2024.”

Mr. Qiu continued, “With an FDA-aligned Phase 3 design and a strategic transaction with Biolin to support approximately half of DUBLIN-4’s planned 442-patient enrollment, generating quality data from China, we remain focused on advancing the study toward its prespecified interim analysis at 221 progression-free survival events. We believe positive interim results could represent a significant value inflection point for BeyondSpring, as we continue to pursue financing and strategic opportunities to support global execution.”

Recent Regulatory, Clinical and Corporate Highlights

FDA Fast Track designation for Plinabulin plus docetaxel in post-ICI non-squamous NSCLC

  • The Company announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted Fast Track designation to Plinabulin plus docetaxel for advanced or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without actionable genomic alterations (AGA), following prior anti-PD-(L)1 therapy and platinum-based chemotherapy.
  • The designated population corresponds to the second- or third-line patient population targeted in the global DUBLIN-4 trial. Fast Track designation may facilitate more frequent FDA interactions and, if applicable criteria are met, rolling review of a future application.

Strategic transaction to fund half of DUBLIN-4’s planned patient enrollment

  • The Company completed the sale of BeyondSpring Ltd., its wholly owned subsidiary that indirectly held the majority equity interest in Dalian Wanchunbulin Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (“Bulin”), to Biolin Investment Limited (“Biolin”) on September 30, 2026, pursuant to a definitive agreement among the parties.
  • As non-cash consideration, Biolin will support the funding of DUBLIN-4 clinical development activities conducted by Bulin at participating sites in China, which are expected to include enrollment of approximately 221 patients, or approximately half of the planned 442-patient global enrollment. BeyondSpring will receive access to clinical data generated from the China portion of the trial.

Third Quarter Financial Results

Continuing operations:

  • Research and development (R&D) expenses were $1.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The increase of $0.1 million was primarily due to a $0.3 million increase in preclinical expenses related to Plinabulin treatment combination research in support of strategic business development and partnership initiatives, partially offset by lower patent-related legal services and drug manufacturing costs.
  • General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $0.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The increase of $0.3 million was primarily due to an increase in legal fees related to financing activities and higher consulting expenses related to accounting advisory and audit services, partially offset by lower personnel-related and travel expenses.
  • Net loss was $2.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to $1.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
  • Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $0.6 million as of September 30, 2026, compared to $4.0 million as of December 31, 2025.

Year-to-Date Financial Results

Continuing operations:

  • Research and development (R&D) expenses were $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase of $0.4 million was primarily due to expanded drug manufacturing activities and increased preclinical Plinabulin treatment combination research, partially offset by lower patent-related legal services and personnel-related expenses.
  • General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of $0.5 million was primarily due to lower personnel-related expenses, mainly from lower incentive compensation and share-based compensation, as well as lower professional service expenses in legal advisory and lower travel and entertainment expenses.
  • Net loss was $5.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $5.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

About BeyondSpring
BeyondSpring (NASDAQ: BYSI) is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing first-in-class therapies for cancers with high unmet needs. Its lead asset, Plinabulin, has been studied in more than 700 cancer patients and is in late-stage development across multiple cancer indications. Plinabulin’s novel mechanism as a GEF-H1 agonist with dendritic cell maturation benefit supports both anticancer activity and immune modulation, offering a unique approach to resensitizing tumors that have progressed on checkpoint inhibitors. In addition, it has the potential to synergize with chemotherapy, antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), radiation, and checkpoint inhibitors. BeyondSpring is also an early incubator of and maintains an equity interest in SEED Therapeutics, a clinical-stage targeted protein degradation molecular glue company with investments from Eli Lilly and Eisai.

About Plinabulin and the Clinical Rationale for the DUBLIN-4 Trial
Plinabulin is a late-stage, first-in-class investigational GEF-H1 agonist with a differentiated mechanism of action that includes dendritic cell maturation, anti-angiogenic activity and mitigation of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. To date, more than 700 cancer patients have been treated with Plinabulin across multiple clinical programs in various cancer types, demonstrating an extensive clinical safety database.

The post-ICI setting remains difficult to treat: 12 Phase 3 trials evaluating different treatment approaches against docetaxel, including four involving ADCs, have failed to demonstrate an overall survival benefit over docetaxel.

In the Phase 3 DUBLIN-3 trial, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine in 2024, Plinabulin combined with docetaxel demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in OS in second- and third-line EGFR wild-type NSCLC vs. docetaxel alone (n=559), showing superior OS benefit in non-squamous patients (n=332, OS HR 0.72, p=0.0078). The combination also demonstrated statistically significant improvements compared to docetaxel alone, including doubling the 2-year and 3-year survival rates and improvements in PFS and ORR, while also significantly reducing grade 4 neutropenia (p<0.0001).

Importantly, a post hoc analysis of the DUBLIN-3 post-ICI subgroup showed a median OS of 15.8 months with Plinabulin plus docetaxel versus 11.7 months with docetaxel alone (HR 0.55), with ORR of 18.2% versus 8.0%, respectively. These findings support the clinical rationale for Plinabulin’s differentiated dendritic cell maturation mechanism and its further evaluation in DUBLIN-4.

This rationale was further supported by prospective data from the Phase 2 Study 303 (n=47), presented at ASCO 2026. In patients with NSCLC whose disease had progressed following PD-1 inhibitor treatment, the combination of Plinabulin, docetaxel and a PD-1 inhibitor demonstrated encouraging anticancer activity. With a median follow-up of 28.8 months, the Plinabulin combination showed a median PFS of 7.0 months, a disease control rate of 79.5%, and a confirmed ORR of 18.2%, with a 2-year OS rate of 58%, nearly double the historical rate reported with docetaxel in a similar patient population.

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cheetah Net Supply Chain Service Inc. (“Cheetah” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq CM: CTNT), a provider of logistics and warehousing services and international trading services, today reported results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 and provided a corporate update.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported total revenue of $3,557,805, compared to $361,935 in the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $3,195,870, or 883.0%. The Company recorded an operating loss of $821,890 for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared to an operating loss of $1,564,479 in the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of $742,589, or 47.5%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase of $237,229 in gross profit and the absence of an impairment loss of $731,307 recognized in the same period in 2025, partially offset by an increase of $287,851 in general and administrative expenses compared to the same period in 2025. The Company recognized other expenses, net, of $1,726,105 for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, primarily attributable to a $2,783,884 loss resulting from the change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration asset, partially offset by interest income of $398,232 and other income of $666,508. After accounting for an income tax provision of nil, the Company reported a net loss from continuing operations of $2,547,995, compared to net loss from continuing operations of $1,314,650 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase in net loss of $1,233,345, or 93.8%.

Tony Liu, Cheetah’s Chairman and CEO, commented: “The third quarter of 2026 marked an important step forward in the execution of our business diversification strategy. Following the acquisition of Super International Trading Limited in May, our international trading business demonstrated encouraging momentum, generating approximately $3.56 million in revenue during the quarter. This performance reflects the progress we have made in expanding our business platform and developing new sources of revenue.”

“While our logistics and warehousing business continues to face challenges arising from evolving global trade conditions and cross-border customer demand, we remain focused on optimizing our operating structure and allocating resources toward opportunities that we believe offer greater long-term growth potential. We are encouraged by the progress of our international trading business and will continue to focus on strengthening its operations, expanding business opportunities, and improving operational efficiency.”

“Looking ahead, we remain committed to disciplined capital allocation, prudent financial management, and the pursuit of strategic opportunities that complement our existing capabilities. We believe that our continued efforts to diversify our revenue streams and strengthen our operating platform will position the Company for sustainable long-term growth.”

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Continuing operations – logistics and warehousing business

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $nil from its logistics and warehousing services segment, compared to $361,935 for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the disposition of Edward and the expiration of TWEW’s legacy customer service contracts during late 2025 and early 2026, which were not renewed on their original terms. As of the date of this release, TWEW is renegotiating logistics and labor services arrangements with customers that had business relationships with TWEW prior to its acquisition, and letters of intent and draft contracts with certain of these customers are in the process of being executed.

The Company also reported cost of revenue of $nil and $317,757 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing a decrease of $317,757, or 100.0%, consistent with the corresponding decline in revenue from Edward and TWEW.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2026, was $nil, a decrease of $44,178, or 100.0%, from $44,178 for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations-logistics and warehousing services segment decreased by $90,368, or 84.1%, to $17,068 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $107,436 for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to the disposal of Edward in 2026.

Continuing operations – international trading

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $3,557,805 from its international trading segment, all of which was generated by Super International Trading Limited (“Super International”), which we acquired on May 27, 2026. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s international trading business following the acquisition of Super International.

The Company also reported cost of revenue of $3,276,398 and $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing an increase of $3,276,398, all of which was attributable to Super International, consistent with the corresponding increase in international trading revenue.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $281,407, an increase of $281,407, from $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations – international trading segment increased to $23,349 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was mainly due to the commencement of the Company’s international trading operations following the acquisition of Super International on May 27, 2026.

Continuing operations – Corporate Unallocated Operating Adjustments

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations- corporate unallocated operating adjustments segment increased by $354,870, or 51.1%, to $1,048,697 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $693,827 for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was mainly due to travel and entertainment expenses and legal and accounting fees and other general and administrative expenses.

Share-based compensation expenses were $14,183 and $76,087 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing a decrease of $61,904, or 81.4%.

Interest income from continuing operations was $398,232 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $244,776 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $153,456 or 62.7%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average outstanding loan balances as the Company made additional loans to third parties, resulting in higher interest income.

Interest expense incurred from our continuing operations was $6,961 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, which decreased by $888, or 11.3%, from $7,849 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, mainly due to the continued amortization of our long-term borrowings and lower credit card and premium finance interest.

Net other income from continuing operations was $666,508 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $12,902 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $653,606, or 5,065.9%. The increase was primarily driven by higher foreign exchange gains resulting from currency rate fluctuations.

The Company’s receivable from withdrawal of investment deposit of $41,762,995 as of September 30, 2026, represents RMB 280,000,000 contributed by Naiside to a PRC investment fund in January 2026 and repayable in full by Shanghai Kesheng on or before December 30, 2026. The receivable is denominated in Renminbi and remeasured at each reporting date. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized an unrealized foreign exchange gain of $652,422 on this receivable. Excluding this non-cash gain, the Company’s loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $2,547,995 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 would have been approximately $3,200,417.

Other expense from the change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration asset was $2,783,884 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net loss of $2,547,995 from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $1,314,650 for the same period of 2025.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $92,700 from its logistics and warehousing services segment, compared to $1,195,860 for the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily due to the disposition of Edward and the expiration of TWEW’s legacy customer service contracts, as described above.

The Company also reported cost of revenue of $72,833 and $1,060,526 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, primarily reflecting labor and logistics costs for TWEW and ocean freight service costs incurred by Edward.

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, was $19,867, a decrease of $115,467, or 85.3%, from $135,334 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations-logistics and warehousing services segment decreased by $179,749, or 50.8%, to $173,757 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $353,506 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to lower operating and administrative expenses following the disposal of Edward, as well as ongoing cost control initiatives.

Continuing operations – international trading

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company reported revenue of $4,426,714 from its international trading segment, of which $208,909, or 4.7%, was attributable to Cheetah, and $4,217,805, or 95.3%, was attributable to Super International, which the Company acquired on May 27, 2026. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of the Company’s international trading business following the acquisition of Super International.

The Company also reported cost of revenue of $4,125,807 and $nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing an increase of $4,125,807 including $199,409 attributable to Cheetah and $3,926,398 attributable to Super International, consistent with the corresponding increase in international trading revenue.

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations-international trading segment increased to $43,433 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was mainly due to the acquisition of Super International.

Continuing operations – Corporate Unallocated Operating Adjustments

General and administrative expenses for the Company’s continuing operations- corporate unallocated operating adjustments segment increased by $275,462, or 12.2%, to $2,529,043 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $2,253,581 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase was mainly due to an increase in travel and entertainment expenses and other general and administrative expenses.

Share-based compensation expenses were $42,547 and $102,716 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, representing a decrease of $60,169, or 58.6%.

Interest income from continuing operations was $814,069 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $725,094 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $88,975 or 12.3%. The increase was primarily due to an increase in average outstanding loan balances as the Company made additional loans to third parties, resulting in higher interest income.

Interest expense incurred from our continuing operations was $21,460 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, which decreased by $3,261, or 13.2%, from $24,721 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, mainly due to lower average outstanding balances under long-term borrowings and premium finance arrangements.

Net other income from continuing operations was $1,669,286 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $42,658 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, representing an increase of $1,626,628, or 3,813.2%. The increase was primarily driven by higher foreign exchange gains resulting from currency rate fluctuations.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company recognized an unrealized foreign exchange gain of approximately $1,631,708 related to the receivable arising from the withdrawal of the investment deposit. Excluding this non-cash gain, the Company would have incurred a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of approximately $4,719,313 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Other expense from the change in fair value of acquisition-related contingent consideration asset was $2,783,884 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to $nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

As a result of the above factors, the Company had a net loss of $3,093,215 from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to a net loss of $2,581,087 for the same period of 2025.

Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations

The Company reported a net loss of approximately $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $2.5 million. As the Company continues to integrate its newly acquired international trading business and develop its logistics and warehousing service business, the Company may continue to incur operating losses and generate negative cash flow. These factors were considered in management’s evaluation of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, together with the mitigating factors described below.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $14.5 million and a working capital balance of $87.1 million. In addition, the Company had a receivable from withdrawal of investment deposit of $41.8 million and loans receivable from third parties of approximately $29.5 million, which can be sufficient for the Company to support its ongoing business operations and meet the obligations in the future.

Management has evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in accordance with ASC 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern. This evaluation considered the Company’s current financial condition, expected cash flows, obligations due within the next 12 months, and available sources of liquidity.

The Company is working to further improve its liquidity and capital sources primarily by generating cash from operations, pursuing debt financing, and, if needed, seeking financial support from its principal stockholder. If necessary to fully implement its business plan and sustain continued growth, the Company may seek additional equity financing from outside investors. Based on the current operating plan, management believes that the aforementioned measures collectively will provide sufficient liquidity to meet the Company’s liquidity and capital requirements for at least 12 months from the issuance date of its consolidated financial statements.

 –     Continued to advance the development of CLD-401 towards the clinic

–      Presented new CLD-401 data and in situ TCE platform advances at the ESMO Congress 2026

–      Received $1.2 million gross proceeds from at-the-market registered direct offering

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Calidi Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NYSE American: CLDI) (“Calidi” or the “Company”), a biotechnology company pioneering the development of targeted genetic medicines, today reported financial and operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2026, and reviewed recent business highlights.

“Throughout the third quarter, Calidi continued to advance its RedTail platform for systemic and local delivery and redefine the potential of oncolytic viruses and genetic medicine,” said Eric Poma, Ph.D., Calidi Biotherapeutics CEO. “In particular, CLD-401 demonstrated remarkable anti-tumor activity with systemic administration in syngeneic tumor models and continues to progress towards the clinic.”

Third Quarter 2026 and Recent Business Developments

  • Presented two posters at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2026 on October 24, 2026. The presentations showcased new data from the Company’s RedTail platform, a systemically delivered virotherapy platform engineered to selectively target tumors, remodel the tumor microenvironment, and enable high-level expression of therapeutic genetic payloads directly within tumors.
    • Preclinical data on Calidi’s lead program, CLD-401, showed complete tumor eradication in 80% of EMT6 breast cancer tumor-bearing mice versus 0% in the control arm. CLD-401 was engineered for systemic delivery, and new data from an MB49 bladder cancer model show it retains antitumor activity with either systemic intravenous or localized intratumoral administration, supporting flexible delivery approaches across tumor accessibility and disease settings. 
    • Presented preclinical data from Calidi’s in situ T-cell engager (“TCE”) platform, including CLD-501, its TROP-2-targeted candidate, and CLD-502, its EpCAM-targeted candidate.   Following intravenous delivery, the platform generated approximately 10 ng/mL of EpCAM-targeted TCE directly within tumors, and both targeted TCEs demonstrated antigen-dependent, does-responsive T-cell mediated cytotoxicity.
  • Received $1.2 million gross proceeds from an at-the-market registered direct offering that closed on September 18, 2026.
  • Reduced general and administrative expenses by $1.0 million, or 39%, in the third quarter of 2026 versus the same period in the prior year. Reduced general and administrative expenses by $3.6 million, or 42%, in the nine months ended September 30, 2026, versus the same period in the prior year. On November 6, 2026, Calidi executed a restructuring plan, predominantly through a reduction in headcount, that is expected to save $3 million on an annualized basis to extend the Company’s cash runway to reduce costs, extend the Company’s operating runway, and preserve capital while pursuing additional financing. 

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Calidi reported a $3.6 million net loss attributable to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2026, compared to a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $10.8 million for the third quarter of 2025, which included a $5.7 million non-cash charge for a deemed dividend on warrants.  There was no such charge during the third quarter of 2026.

Research and development expenses were $2.7 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $2.4 million for the same quarter in 2025.

General and administrative expenses were $1.6 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $2.7 million for the same quarter in 2025.

The Company had $3.9 million in cash and $0.2 million in restricted cash as of September 30, 2026, compared with $5.6 million in cash and $0.2 million in restricted cash as of December 31. 2025.
