$AVRW: Avenir Wellness Solutions Reports Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
New Initiatives Showing Encouraging Results
SHERMAN OAKS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 17, 2024 / Avenir Wellness Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB:AVRW) ("Avenir" or the "Company"), a proprietary broad platform technology and wellness company, today announced results for the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2023.
Key financial highlights for the fourth quarter included the following:
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased to $1.1 million from the same period in 2022 by $0.2 million, or 11.7%, and also increased sequentially from Q3 2023 by $43 thousand, or 4.4%. Overall growth was lower than expected due to the continued delay in receiving the expected remainder of the asset sale proceeds to be used for advertising and marketing to drive sales. The quarter did, however, benefit from a new relationship with leading online and beauty subscription box retailer, FabFitFun.
Gross margin increased 407 basis points year over year in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to improved working capital management offset in part by a higher proportion of sales coming from our wholesale channel of distribution with its lower margins than our higher-margin direct-to-consumer sales channel.
Gross margin for the third quarter of 2023 decreased sequentially from the second quarter of 2023 by 26 basis points due to a shift in sales channel mix with a higher proportion of wholesale sales to Amazon and FabFitFun which resulted in shipments of approximately $0.3 million.
Cost containment initiatives led to a favorable impact on SG&A expenses (excluding non-cash charges) for the fourth quarter with a decrease of $357 thousand in 2023 compared to 2022 driven by decreased spend on advertising and promotion of $325 thousand lower overhead by $32 thousand.
Net operating loss from continuing operations (excluding non-cash charges) improved by $0.9 million in 2023.
"Our products continue to maintain sales levels which is encouraging given that we have been unable to fully execute on our marketing initiatives pending receipt of the balance of the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale. As mentioned in our third quarter earnings announcement, the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale allow us to invest in the future of the Company, but the delay in receiving the balance of the proceeds continued to have an impact on our operating performance. We expect accelerating sales will reaffirm the improving overall trajectory of the business. Further, our margin expansion initiatives continue to deliver results with improvement from third quarter, and we continue our overall cost containment initiatives to further reduce SG&A expenses and to maximize operating leverage.
Fine tuning our Search Engine Optimization (SEO), bringing our media buying in house and achieving successful monthly campaigns like theSkimm continue to deliver for us as we execute on our strategy to build our brands," said Nancy Duitch, Avenir CEO.
Operational Highlights
Other operational highlights during the fourth quarter of 2023 included:
Our newly formulated Seratopical Revolution Cracked Heel Souffle was selected for inclusion in FatFitFun's Summer 2024 subscription box selling out an astonishing 80,000 units in under 43 minutes. Click link to view Instagram videos on our Cracked Heel Souffle.
Our DNA Complex hero product continues to perform as our subscription based grows.
Wholesale sales led by Amazon continue to grow with all the positive product reviews.
We began development of our new TikTok shop to capitalize on the evolving digital ecommerce landscape which launched in the second quarter of 2024.

Nice buying on AVRW again today. Looks like one more investor decided to take all the .05 shares on the ask that he could get. Little by little the word is getting around that this company is on track for a good growth year in 2024 with higher shareholder value. A while ago shares were available as low as the .03 range. Those who accumulated them should be pleased with the positive pps trend in play now.

$CATV: Category V Biotech, Inc. Announces Letter of Intent to Acquire Genetic Networks, Expanding into Biotechnology Sector
MIAMI, May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 4Cable TV International, Inc. soon to be known as Category V Biotech, Inc. (OTC: CATV) announced today the execution of a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire Genetic Networks, LLC (https://geneticnetworks.com/), a leader in applied molecular biology and drug development. Effective May 15, 2024, the LOI signifies Category V Biotech's acquisition of 100% equity interests in Genetic Networks, marking the company's entry into the biotechnology sector of the Cannabis industry and solidifying its position as a fully integrated global leader in this space.
Genetic Networks brings a proprietary platform known as GeneScape™, which facilitates the rapid and unbiased discovery of optimal drug compounds through whole-genome analysis. By integrating functional assays of drug activity and human gene variants, GeneScape™ can identify the most promising targets and compounds for specific diseases, expediting development timelines and reducing costs. This acquisition enables Category V Biotech to expand into the biotech aspect of the Cannabis industry, leveraging Genetic Networks' expertise in accelerating compound discovery and development for pre-clinical and clinical testing.
"We are excited to welcome Genetic Networks into the Category V Biotech family," stated Michael Feldenkrais, CEO of Category V Biotech. "Their state-of-the-art platform and extensive knowledge will be instrumental as we strive to unlock the full potential of Cannabis-based therapeutics. Together, we anticipate bringing novel treatments to patients faster than ever before as regulated FDA products under the new regulatory environment of the United States."
Under the agreement's terms, Category V Biotech will acquire 100% of Genetic Networks. The transaction is expected to conclude in the second quarter of 2024, pending customary closing conditions.
Dr. Gennaro D'Urso, co-founder of Genetic Networks, echoed this enthusiasm, stating, "Category V Biotech shares our dedication to leveraging genetics to revolutionize drug development. By joining forces, we envisage broadening the reach and impact of our platform, ultimately delivering superior medicines to patients in need."
Following the acquisition, Genetic Networks will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Category V Biotech, retaining its existing management team and facilities. Category V Biotech plans to leverage Genetic Networks' capabilities across its global Cannabis operations, including cultivation, biotech research, and retail.
This transaction is the culmination of years of discussions, awaiting the right moment for research and development in the United States to create pharmaceutical-grade products using Cannabis. With the recent announcement of the rescheduling of Cannabis from Controlled Substance I to Controlled Substance III, reflecting a change in U.S. policies, the long-awaited strategy can now come to fruition. This shift paves the way for Category V Biotech and Genetic Networks to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the Cannabis industry, driving innovation and advancing therapeutic solutions for patients.
Category V Biotech remains actively engaged in pursuing additional acquisitions in the Cannabis industry as part of its growth strategy, with further transactions expected to be announced in the coming months.

$NRXP News: NRx Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:NRXP) Publishes Shareholder Update Letter
The June 2024 meeting of the American Society for Clinical Psychopharmacology (ASCP) focused heavily on increasing use of intravenous ketamine and intranasal S-ketamine as the emerging standard of care for treating severe depression and suicidality
Presenters from 3 open label studies at the ASCP suggested that intravenous ketamine is at least equivalent and may have advantages over intranasal S-ketamine
NRx Pharmaceuticals has now reached the 9-month stability point with its ketamine formulation (NRX-100) and has initiated 3 manufacturing lots for future drug release. Nonclinical safety for short term use of NRX-100 has recently been published and submitted to FDA
FDA leadership, in public comments at ASCP, focused on the need for nonclinical safety data for intravenous ketamine as a condition of ketamine approval
The short-term need for intravenous ketamine as an already-approved, schedule 3 drug, is heightened by recent regulatory decisions that may delay the path of potent, schedule 1 psychedelic drugs that may require more complicated clinical trial designs.
RADNOR, Pa., June 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- NRx Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: NRXP) ("NRx Pharmaceuticals", the "Company"), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, today announced that the Company posted a new Shareholder Update Letter on its website NRx Shareholder Update and further invites interested parties to subscribe to their email alert service to stay up to date on company's progress here: NRx Email Alerts . (Note: not all updates will be included in a Press Release in the future).
Today's update highlights potential implications of the Company's recent activities at the annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology. The key points include:
Intravenous and intranasal ketamine were highlighted as emerging standards of care for severe depression and suicidality
Planned NDA filing for NRX-100, our preservative free IV ketamine, for Suicidal Depression in 2024, is based on well controlled trials against both placebo and active comparator. Fast Track Designation was previously granted
An independent FDA advisory panel recently voted against MDMA, a potent, class I psychedelic, refocusing attention on already-approved Schedule 3 drugs such as ketamine for treatment of suicidal depression. The FDA panel and emerging guidance highlights the complexity of clinical trials of DEA Schedule 1 hallucinogens that do not have already-approved human uses
NRx anticipates that an important issue for longer term use of ketamine in depression will be the current multidose vial presentation that contains potentially toxic preservatives previously acceptable for one time use but less suitable for repeated use. NRX-100 is planned as a single-dose, preservative-free medication.
Please subscribe to the Company's email for future updates. NRX Email Alerts Not all of these will be the subject of a Press Release in the future.

$AVRW News: Avenir Wellness Solutions Reports Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
New Initiatives Showing Encouraging Results
SHERMAN OAKS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 17, 2024 / Avenir Wellness Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB:AVRW) ("Avenir" or the "Company"), a proprietary broad platform technology and wellness company, today announced results for the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2023.
Key financial highlights for the fourth quarter included the following:
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased to $1.1 million from the same period in 2022 by $0.2 million, or 11.7%, and also increased sequentially from Q3 2023 by $43 thousand, or 4.4%. Overall growth was lower than expected due to the continued delay in receiving the expected remainder of the asset sale proceeds to be used for advertising and marketing to drive sales. The quarter did, however, benefit from a new relationship with leading online and beauty subscription box retailer, FabFitFun.
Gross margin increased 407 basis points year over year in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to improved working capital management offset in part by a higher proportion of sales coming from our wholesale channel of distribution with its lower margins than our higher-margin direct-to-consumer sales channel.
Gross margin for the third quarter of 2023 decreased sequentially from the second quarter of 2023 by 26 basis points due to a shift in sales channel mix with a higher proportion of wholesale sales to Amazon and FabFitFun which resulted in shipments of approximately $0.3 million.
Cost containment initiatives led to a favorable impact on SG&A expenses (excluding non-cash charges) for the fourth quarter with a decrease of $357 thousand in 2023 compared to 2022 driven by decreased spend on advertising and promotion of $325 thousand lower overhead by $32 thousand.
Net operating loss from continuing operations (excluding non-cash charges) improved by $0.9 million in 2023.
"Our products continue to maintain sales levels which is encouraging given that we have been unable to fully execute on our marketing initiatives pending receipt of the balance of the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale. As mentioned in our third quarter earnings announcement, the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale allow us to invest in the future of the Company, but the delay in receiving the balance of the proceeds continued to have an impact on our operating performance. We expect accelerating sales will reaffirm the improving overall trajectory of the business. Further, our margin expansion initiatives continue to deliver results with improvement from third quarter, and we continue our overall cost containment initiatives to further reduce SG&A expenses and to maximize operating leverage.
Fine tuning our Search Engine Optimization (SEO), bringing our media buying in house and achieving successful monthly campaigns like theSkimm continue to deliver for us as we execute on our strategy to build our brands," said Nancy Duitch, Avenir CEO.
Operational Highlights
Other operational highlights during the fourth quarter of 2023 included:
Our newly formulated Seratopical Revolution Cracked Heel Souffle was selected for inclusion in FatFitFun's Summer 2024 subscription box selling out an astonishing 80,000 units in under 43 minutes. Click link to view Instagram videos on our Cracked Heel Souffle.
Our DNA Complex hero product continues to perform as our subscription based grows.
Wholesale sales led by Amazon continue to grow with all the positive product reviews.

$CATV: Category V Biotech, Inc. Announces Letter of Intent to Acquire Genetic Networks, Expanding into Biotechnology Sector
MIAMI, May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 4Cable TV International, Inc. soon to be known as Category V Biotech, Inc. (OTC: CATV) announced today the execution of a Letter of Intent (LOI) to acquire Genetic Networks, LLC (https://geneticnetworks.com/), a leader in applied molecular biology and drug development. Effective May 15, 2024, the LOI signifies Category V Biotech's acquisition of 100% equity interests in Genetic Networks, marking the company's entry into the biotechnology sector of the Cannabis industry and solidifying its position as a fully integrated global leader in this space.
Genetic Networks brings a proprietary platform known as GeneScape™, which facilitates the rapid and unbiased discovery of optimal drug compounds through whole-genome analysis. By integrating functional assays of drug activity and human gene variants, GeneScape™ can identify the most promising targets and compounds for specific diseases, expediting development timelines and reducing costs. This acquisition enables Category V Biotech to expand into the biotech aspect of the Cannabis industry, leveraging Genetic Networks' expertise in accelerating compound discovery and development for pre-clinical and clinical testing.
"We are excited to welcome Genetic Networks into the Category V Biotech family," stated Michael Feldenkrais, CEO of Category V Biotech. "Their state-of-the-art platform and extensive knowledge will be instrumental as we strive to unlock the full potential of Cannabis-based therapeutics. Together, we anticipate bringing novel treatments to patients faster than ever before as regulated FDA products under the new regulatory environment of the United States."
Under the agreement's terms, Category V Biotech will acquire 100% of Genetic Networks. The transaction is expected to conclude in the second quarter of 2024, pending customary closing conditions.
Dr. Gennaro D'Urso, co-founder of Genetic Networks, echoed this enthusiasm, stating, "Category V Biotech shares our dedication to leveraging genetics to revolutionize drug development. By joining forces, we envisage broadening the reach and impact of our platform, ultimately delivering superior medicines to patients in need."
Following the acquisition, Genetic Networks will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Category V Biotech, retaining its existing management team and facilities. Category V Biotech plans to leverage Genetic Networks' capabilities across its global Cannabis operations, including cultivation, biotech research, and retail.
This transaction is the culmination of years of discussions, awaiting the right moment for research and development in the United States to create pharmaceutical-grade products using Cannabis. With the recent announcement of the rescheduling of Cannabis from Controlled Substance I to Controlled Substance III, reflecting a change in U.S. policies, the long-awaited strategy can now come to fruition. This shift paves the way for Category V Biotech and Genetic Networks to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the Cannabis industry, driving innovation and advancing therapeutic solutions for patients.
Category V Biotech remains actively engaged in pursuing additional acquisitions in the Cannabis industry as part of its growth strategy, with further transactions expected to be announced in the coming months.

$AVRW: Avenir Wellness Solutions Reports Fourth Quarter 2023 Results
New Initiatives Showing Encouraging Results
SHERMAN OAKS, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 17, 2024 / Avenir Wellness Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB:AVRW) ("Avenir" or the "Company"), a proprietary broad platform technology and wellness company, today announced results for the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2023.
Key financial highlights for the fourth quarter included the following:
Net revenue in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased to $1.1 million from the same period in 2022 by $0.2 million, or 11.7%, and also increased sequentially from Q3 2023 by $43 thousand, or 4.4%. Overall growth was lower than expected due to the continued delay in receiving the expected remainder of the asset sale proceeds to be used for advertising and marketing to drive sales. The quarter did, however, benefit from a new relationship with leading online and beauty subscription box retailer, FabFitFun.
Gross margin increased 407 basis points year over year in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to improved working capital management offset in part by a higher proportion of sales coming from our wholesale channel of distribution with its lower margins than our higher-margin direct-to-consumer sales channel.
Gross margin for the third quarter of 2023 decreased sequentially from the second quarter of 2023 by 26 basis points due to a shift in sales channel mix with a higher proportion of wholesale sales to Amazon and FabFitFun which resulted in shipments of approximately $0.3 million.
Cost containment initiatives led to a favorable impact on SG&A expenses (excluding non-cash charges) for the fourth quarter with a decrease of $357 thousand in 2023 compared to 2022 driven by decreased spend on advertising and promotion of $325 thousand lower overhead by $32 thousand.
Net operating loss from continuing operations (excluding non-cash charges) improved by $0.9 million in 2023.
"Our products continue to maintain sales levels which is encouraging given that we have been unable to fully execute on our marketing initiatives pending receipt of the balance of the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale. As mentioned in our third quarter earnings announcement, the proceeds from the July 2022 asset sale allow us to invest in the future of the Company, but the delay in receiving the balance of the proceeds continued to have an impact on our operating performance. We expect accelerating sales will reaffirm the improving overall trajectory of the business. Further, our margin expansion initiatives continue to deliver results with improvement from third quarter, and we continue our overall cost containment initiatives to further reduce SG&A expenses and to maximize operating leverage.
Fine tuning our Search Engine Optimization (SEO), bringing our media buying in house and achieving successful monthly campaigns like theSkimm continue to deliver for us as we execute on our strategy to build our brands," said Nancy Duitch, Avenir CEO.
Operational Highlights
Other operational highlights during the fourth quarter of 2023 included:
Our newly formulated Seratopical Revolution Cracked Heel Souffle was selected for inclusion in FatFitFun's Summer 2024 subscription box selling out an astonishing 80,000 units in under 43 minutes. Click link to view Instagram videos on our Cracked Heel Souffle.
Our DNA Complex hero product continues to perform as our subscription based grows.
Wholesale sales led by Amazon continue to grow with all the positive product reviews.
