TNX-102 SL is a sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine designed for transmucosal delivery and durable activity in treating fibromyalgia: FDA PDUFA goal date of August 15, 2025

TNX-102 SL demonstrated statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint of reduction in fibromyalgia pain in two double-blind randomized placebo-controlled Phase 3 studies

If approved by FDA, TNX-102 SL would become the first member of a new class of non-opioid analgesic drugs for fibromyalgia and the first new drug for treating fibromyalgia in more than 15 years

CHATHAM, N.J., June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP) (Tonix or the Company) presented data in a poster presentation at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology (EULAR) 2025, held June 11-14, 2025, in Barcelona, Spain. A copy of the Company’s poster, titled “Advancing Fibromyalgia Treatment: Transmucosal Sublingual Cyclobenzaprine (TNX-102 SL) Targets Non-restorative Sleep and Provides Sustained Pain Reduction” is available under the Scientific Presentations tab of the Tonix website at www.tonixpharma.com. TNX-102 SL (cyclobenzaprine HCl sublingual tablets) is a non-opioid analgesic designed for daily bedtime dosing with an FDA Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) goal date of August 15, 2025.

“Fibromyalgia is a complex and invisible chronic pain condition which drives many patients to be prescribed chronic opioids which are associated with addiction and overdose,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “To address the chronic symptoms of fibromyalgia, potential therapeutic options must provide durable benefits. TNX-102 SL has shown statistically significant, durable activity (14 weeks) in reducing fibromyalgia pain in two Phase 3 studies. Designed to target the sleep disturbance of fibromyalgia, TNX-102 SL harnesses the therapeutic activity of cyclobenzaprine in part by reducing in the level of the active metabolite norcyclobenzaprine relative to oral cyclobenzaprine. Norcyclobenzaprine is believed to interfere with the durability of oral cyclobenzaprine’s treatment effect in off-label chronic dosing regimens and in a failed double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial.1 TNX-102 SL now has the potential to be the first new treatment option for fibromyalgia patients in 15 years.”

TNX-102 SL is designed for transmucosal absorption to bypass first-pass hepatic metabolism. The poster presentation shows the day 20 steady state blood levels from a study of nightly TNX-102 SL dosing in which the peak level of cyclobenzaprine exceeds the level of the active metabolite norcyclobenzaprine during sleep time. In contrast, with nightly oral cyclobenzaprine dosing, pharmacokinetic simulations show that norcyclobenzaprine accumulates to higher levels, and the cyclobenzaprine peak level does not exceed the norcyclobenzaprine level during sleep time.

The poster includes data from the RESILIENT Phase 3 study evaluating the efficacy and safety of TNX-102 SL with a primary endpoint of reducing daily pain numeric rating scale scores after 14 weeks of treatment. TNX-102 SL significantly reduced pain and improved clinical outcomes in fibromyalgia patients while demonstrating a favorable tolerability profile. TNX-102 SL employs a novel mechanism targeting the sleep disturbance in fibromyalgia by acting as a potent antagonist at four post-synaptic receptors, each of which is known to regulate sleep.

About Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a common chronic pain disorder that is understood to result from amplified sensory and pain signaling within the central nervous system, called central sensitization. Brain imaging studies have localized the functional disorder to the brain’s insula and anterior cingulate cortex. Fibromyalgia afflicts more than 10 million adults in the U.S., the majority of whom are women. Symptoms of fibromyalgia include chronic widespread pain, non-restorative sleep, fatigue, and brain fog (or cognitive dysfunction). Other associated symptoms include mood disturbances, including depression, anxiety, headaches and abdominal pain or cramps. Individuals suffering from fibromyalgia often struggle with their daily activities, have impaired quality of life, and frequently are disabled. Physicians and patients report common dissatisfaction with currently marketed products. Fibromyalgia is now recognized as the prototypic nociplastic syndrome. Nociplastic pain is the third primary type of pain in addition to nociceptive pain and neuropathic pain. Many patients present with pain syndromes that are mixtures of the three primary types of pain. Nociplastic syndromes are associated with central and peripheral sensitization. Fibromyalgia can occur without any identifiable precipitating event. However, many fibromyalgia cases follow one or more precipitating event(s) including: post-operative pain, acute or chronic nociceptive or neuropathic pain states; recovery from an infectious illness; a cancer diagnosis or cancer treatment; a metabolic or endocrine stress; or a traumatic event. In the cases of recovery from an infectious illness, fibromyalgia is considered an Infection-Associated Chronic Condition. In addition to fibromyalgia cases associated with other conditions or stressors, the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, has concluded that fibromyalgia is a diagnosable condition that can occur after recovery from COVID-19 in the context of Long COVID.

About TNX-102 SL

TNX-102 SL is a centrally acting, non-opioid investigational drug, designed for chronic use. The tablet is a patented sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride developed for bedtime dosing for the management of fibromyalgia. Cyclobenzaprine potently binds and acts as an antagonist at four different post-synaptic neuroreceptor subtypes: serotonergic-5-HT2A, adrenergic-α1, histaminergic-H1, and muscarinic-M1-cholinergic receptors. Together, these interactions are believed to target the non-restorative sleep characteristic of fibromyalgia identified by Professor Harvey Moldofsky in 1975.   Cyclobenzaprine is not associated with risk of addiction or dependence. The TNX-102 SL tablet is based on a eutectic formulation of cyclobenzaprine HCl and mannitol that provides a stable product which dissolves rapidly and delivers cyclobenzaprine by the transmucosal route efficiently into the bloodstream. The eutectic protects cyclobenzaprine HCl from interacting with the basifying agent that is also part of the formulation and required for efficient transmucosal absorption. Patents based on TNX-102 SL’s eutectic composition and its properties have issued in the U.S., E.U., Japan, China and many other jurisdictions around the world and provide market protection into 2034. The European Patent Office’s Opposition Division maintained Tonix’s European Patent EP 2 968 992 in unamended form after an Opposition was filed against it by a Sandoz subsidiary, Hexal AG. Hexal AG did not appeal that decision. The formulation of TNX-102 SL was designed specifically for sublingual administration and transmucosal absorption for bedtime dosing to target disturbed sleep, while reducing the risk of daytime somnolence. Clinical pharmacokinetic studies indicated that relative to oral cyclobenzaprine, TNX-102 SL results in higher levels of exposure during the first 2 hours after dosing and in deceased levels of the long-lived active metabolite, norcyclobenzaprine in both single dose and multiple dose studies, consistent with bypassing first pass hepatic metabolism. Cyclobenzaprine is a tertiary amine tricyclic and its active metabolite norcyclobenzaprine is a secondary amine tricyclic. At steady state after 20 days of dosing TNX-102 SL, the dynamic peak level of cyclobenzaprine is higher than the background level of norcyclobenzaprine during sleep time. In contrast, after 20 days of dosing oral cyclobenzaprine, the simulated peak level of cyclobenzaprine is lower than the simulated background level of norcyclobenzaprine.

Supernus Pharmaceuticals Acquires Sage Therapeutics in $795M Deal, Boosting Neuropsychiatric Pipeline

Posted on by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com
Key Points:
– Supernus to acquire Sage for up to $12.00 per share, combining upfront cash and milestone-based CVRs.
– Deal adds FDA-approved ZURZUVAE® for postpartum depression to Supernus’ growing CNS portfolio.
– Transaction expected to be accretive by 2026, with $200M in annual cost synergies forecast.

Supernus Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SUPN) has announced a strategic acquisition of Sage Therapeutics (NASDAQ: SAGE) in a deal worth up to $795 million, signaling a bold expansion into the neuropsychiatric space. This all-cash transaction, set to close in Q3 2025, brings to Supernus a key commercial asset—ZURZUVAE® (zuranolone)—as well as access to Sage’s central nervous system (CNS) discovery platform.

The proposed deal includes an upfront payment of $8.50 per share in cash, representing approximately $561 million, and a non-tradable contingent value right (CVR) worth up to an additional $3.50 per share. The CVR milestones are tied to commercial performance of ZURZUVAE in the U.S. and its future launch in Japan.

This acquisition is a transformative step for Supernus, best known for CNS products such as Qelbree®, GOCOVRI®, and ONAPGO™. With the addition of ZURZUVAE—the first and only FDA-approved oral treatment for postpartum depression—the company further solidifies its footprint in the growing neuropsychiatry market. Supernus CEO Jack Khattar stated that the move “adds a fourth growth product” and “diversifies our sources of future growth.”

ZURZUVAE was developed by Sage and commercialized in partnership with Biogen. Under the collaboration, Supernus will recognize revenue equal to 50% of U.S. net sales. In 2024, that share amounted to $36.1 million, with $13.8 million already reported in Q1 2025—indicating an accelerating ramp that Supernus is now positioned to capitalize on.

From a financial perspective, the deal is expected to be significantly accretive starting in 2026, supported by estimated annual cost synergies of up to $200 million. Supernus will fund the transaction entirely through its existing cash reserves, avoiding equity dilution or new debt issuance. For investors, this adds a layer of financial discipline and long-term earnings potential.

Sage’s leadership, including CEO Barry Greene, called the deal the result of a comprehensive strategic review aimed at maximizing shareholder value. Greene highlighted the company’s mission in brain health and praised the Sage team’s work in delivering two first-in-class therapies for postpartum depression.

In terms of integration, Sage’s R&D pipeline and commercial operations will fold into Supernus’ existing infrastructure—a move expected to streamline costs and accelerate product development. The combined entity will also benefit from a strengthened CNS platform and expanded market reach.

While the deal is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and a majority tender of Sage’s outstanding shares, both companies anticipate a smooth closing process. Supernus plans to provide revised financial guidance following deal completion in Q3.

This acquisition reflects a strategic shift in mid-cap biopharma, where clinical differentiation and near-term revenue growth are prioritized. For small- and micro-cap investors, it also signals continued consolidation in the CNS space—where innovation, reimbursement potential, and strong commercialization strategy drive M&A activity.

Small-Cap Defense Stocks: Hidden Gems in Times of Global Uncertainty

Posted on by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com
Key Points:
– Small-cap defense companies operate in specialized sectors with higher agility and acquisition potential compared to mega-cap contractors
– Cybersecurity, drone systems, and advanced materials offer the strongest growth opportunities in current geopolitical climate
– Market volatility creates entry opportunities before institutional recognition drives valuations higher

While major defense contractors like Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman capture headlines during geopolitical tensions, astute small-cap investors should turn their attention to the lesser-known defense players positioned to benefit from increased military spending and technological innovation. Small-cap defense companies often operate in specialized niches that make them indispensable to larger prime contractors and government agencies, and unlike their mega-cap counterparts, these firms can pivot quickly to emerging threats and technologies, making them attractive acquisition targets or compelling long-term growth stories.

The current geopolitical climate, highlighted by recent Middle East tensions and ongoing global conflicts, has created a sustained tailwind for defense spending. President Trump’s pledge of a $1 trillion defense budget, while potentially falling short in fiscal 2026, signals a multi-year commitment to military modernization that extends far beyond traditional weapons systems. This environment particularly benefits small-cap companies specializing in cybersecurity and electronic warfare, where firms focusing on cyber defense, electronic countermeasures, and signal intelligence are experiencing unprecedented demand. These companies often possess proprietary technologies that are difficult to replicate and command premium margins, creating substantial competitive advantages.

The drone revolution presents another compelling opportunity, extending beyond consumer applications into military reconnaissance, logistics, and combat operations. Small-cap manufacturers of specialized UAV components, software, and support systems are capturing market share from traditional aerospace giants, while companies developing next-generation materials for armor, stealth applications, and extreme environment operations often fly under the radar while generating substantial returns for early investors.

When evaluating small-cap defense opportunities, successful investors focus on companies with government contract diversification across multiple agencies and international allies to reduce single-customer risk. The most attractive investments typically feature proprietary technology through patents and specialized expertise that create competitive moats justifying premium valuations. Experienced management teams with deep defense industry connections and security clearances consistently accelerate contract wins, while financial discipline demonstrated through strong balance sheets and consistent cash flow generation proves crucial despite the lumpy nature of contract timing.

Small-cap defense investing requires careful risk assessment, as government budget cycles, security clearance requirements, and regulatory compliance create unique challenges. However, companies that successfully navigate these hurdles often enjoy sustained competitive advantages and multi-year revenue visibility that reward patient investors. The current environment of elevated geopolitical tensions, combined with technological disruption in warfare, creates an ideal backdrop for small-cap defense investments. While large-cap names grab immediate attention during crisis periods, the real long-term value creation often occurs in the innovative small companies that power the next generation of military capabilities. Smart investors should use market volatility as an opportunity to build positions in quality small-cap defense names before institutional recognition drives valuations higher.

FreightCar America (RAIL) – Modest Adjustments to Our 2025 Quarterly Estimates; No Change to Full Year Projections

Posted on by slightbourne@noblecapitalmarkets.com


Friday, June 13, 2025

Mark Reichman, Managing Director, Equity Research Analyst, Natural Resources, Noble Capital Markets, Inc.

Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Updating estimates. While we are maintaining our 2025 rail car delivery estimate of 4,710, we have lowered our second quarter expectations to 850 from 950 and increased our third quarter estimate to 1,790 from 1,690.
