GLYFADA, Greece, Sept. 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Seanergy Maritime Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ: SHIP) (the “Company” or “Seanergy”) announced that it has successfully completed the strategic sale of its Capesize vessel, M/V Geniuship, further optimizing its fleet and enhancing liquidity.
The Company also reported the expiration of its Class E warrants on August 20, 2025. Upon the expiration of these warrants, Seanergy has no outstanding warrants or other convertible securities.
Sale of M/V Geniuship
The M/V Geniuship was a 170,057 dwt Capesize bulker, built in 2010 by Sungdong SB in South Korea, which was acquired by Seanergy in 2015. The vessel was sold for a gross price of approximately $21.6 million to an unaffiliated buyer. The delivery was completed successfully on September 10, 2025. The transaction generated net cash proceeds of approximately $12.0 million and is expected to result in an accounting profit of around $2.5 million, which will be recorded on Seanergy’s third quarter financial results.
Expiration of Class E Warrants
The Class E warrants were issued on August 20, 2020, with a five-year term and an exercise price as of the expiration date of $3.98 per share. Following warrant exercises and a tender offer by Seanergy to repurchase warrants in January 2023, Class E warrants to purchase 57,225 common shares remained outstanding as of their expiration date. As of August 20, 2025, the remaining Class E warrants terminated.
Following the expiration of the Class E Warrants and the prior expiration of the Class D warrants in April 2025, Seanergy has no outstanding warrants.
Stamatis Tsantanis, the Company’s Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, stated:
“We are pleased to announce the well-timed sale of our 15-year-old M/V Geniuship, that takes advantage of the favorable valuation environment in the sector. The sale was concluded prior to her upcoming dry-docking, resulting in significant capex savings for Seanergy. Moreover, the approximately $12.0 million net cash sale proceeds after the repayment of the underlying loan strengthened our liquidity position.
“This proactive sale aligns perfectly with our fleet renewal strategy and enhances both our liquidity position and earnings profile.
“The expiration of the Class E warrants along with the prior expiration of the Class D warrants this past April completes the streamlining of our capital structure and removes a longstanding overhang. This is a final step in eliminating legacy dilution risks from outstanding convertible securities and enabling cleaner value recognition for our shareholders.
“With a focused Capesize platform, no outstanding warrants, and a disciplined growth path, we are positioned to capture further upside as market fundamentals strengthen and maximize returns for our shareholders.”

All of Tonix’s forward-looking statements are expressly qualified by all such risk factors and other cautionary statements. The information set forth herein speaks only as of the date thereof.
TONMYA is indicated for the treatment of fibromyalgia in adults.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
TONMYA is contraindicated:
In patients with hypersensitivity to cyclobenzaprine or any inactive ingredient in TONMYA. Hypersensitivity reactions may manifest as an anaphylactic reaction, urticaria, facial and/or tongue swelling, or pruritus. Discontinue TONMYA if a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected.
With concomitant use of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors or within 14 days after discontinuation of an MAO inhibitor. Hyperpyretic crisis seizures and deaths have occurred in patients who received cyclobenzaprine (or structurally similar tricyclic antidepressants) concomitantly with MAO inhibitors drugs.
During the acute recovery phase of myocardial infarction, and in patients with arrhythmias, heart block or conduction disturbances, or congestive heart failure.
In patients with hyperthyroidism.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Embryofetal toxicity: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause neural tube defects when used two weeks prior to conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk and to use effective contraception during treatment and for two weeks after the final dose. Perform a pregnancy test prior to initiation of treatment with TONMYA to exclude use of TONMYA during the first trimester of pregnancy.
Serotonin syndrome: Concomitant use of TONMYA with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), tricyclic antidepressants, tramadol, bupropion, meperidine, verapamil, or MAO inhibitors increases the risk of serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition. Serotonin syndrome symptoms may include mental status changes, autonomic instability, neuromuscular abnormalities, and/or gastrointestinal symptoms. Treatment with TONMYA and any concomitant serotonergic agent should be discontinued immediately if serotonin syndrome symptoms occur and supportive symptomatic treatment should be initiated. If concomitant treatment with TONMYA and other serotonergic drugs is clinically warranted, careful observation is advised, particularly during treatment initiation or dosage increases.
Tricyclic antidepressant-like adverse reactions: Cyclobenzaprine is structurally related to TCAs. TCAs have been reported to produce arrhythmias, sinus tachycardia, prolongation of the conduction time leading to myocardial infarction and stroke. If clinically significant central nervous system (CNS) symptoms develop, consider discontinuation of TONMYA. Caution should be used when TCAs are given to patients with a history of seizure disorder, because TCAs may lower the seizure threshold. Patients with a history of seizures should be monitored during TCA use to identify recurrence of seizures or an increase in the frequency of seizures.
Atropine-like effects: Use with caution in patients with a history of urinary retention, angle-closure glaucoma, increased intraocular pressure, and in patients taking anticholinergic drugs.
CNS depression and risk of operating a motor vehicle or hazardous machinery: TONMYA monotherapy may cause CNS depression. Concomitant use of TONMYA with alcohol, barbiturates, or other CNS depressants may increase the risk of CNS depression. Advise patients not to operate a motor vehicle or dangerous machinery until they are reasonably certain that TONMYA therapy will not adversely affect their ability to engage in such activities.
Oral mucosal adverse reactions: In clinical studies with TONMYA, oral mucosal adverse reactions occurred more frequently in patients treated with TONMYA compared to placebo. Advise patients to moisten the mouth with sips of water before administration of TONMYA to reduce the risk of oral sensory changes (hypoesthesia). Consider discontinuation of TONMYA if severe reactions occur.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2% and at a higher incidence in TONMYA-treated patients compared to placebo-treated patients) were oral hypoesthesia, oral discomfort, abnormal product taste, somnolence, oral paresthesia, oral pain, fatigue, dry mouth, and aphthous ulcer.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
MAO inhibitors: Life-threatening interactions may occur.
Other serotonergic drugs: Serotonin syndrome has been reported.
CNS depressants: CNS depressant effects of alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants may be enhanced.
Tramadol: Seizure risk may be enhanced.
Guanethidine or other similar acting drugs: The antihypertensive action of these drugs may be blocked.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. The limited amount of available observational data on oral cyclobenzaprine use in pregnancy is of insufficient quality to inform a TONMYA-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Advise pregnant women about the potential risk to the fetus with maternal exposure to TONMYA and to avoid use of TONMYA two weeks prior to conception and through the first trimester of pregnancy. Report pregnancies to the Tonix Medicines, Inc., adverse-event reporting line at 1-888-869-7633 (1-888-TNXPMED).
Lactation: A small number of published cases report the transfer of cyclobenzaprine into human milk in low amounts, but these data cannot be confirmed. There are no data on the effects of cyclobenzaprine on a breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for TONMYA and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from TONMYA or from the underlying maternal condition.
Pediatric use: The safety and effectiveness of TONMYA have not been established.
Geriatric patients: Of the total number of TONMYA-treated patients in the clinical trials in adult patients with fibromyalgia, none were 65 years of age and older. Clinical trials of TONMYA did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients.
Hepatic impairment: The recommended dosage of TONMYA in patients with mild hepatic impairment (HI) (Child Pugh A) is 2.8 mg once daily at bedtime, lower than the recommended dosage in patients with normal hepatic function. The use of TONMYA is not recommended in patients with moderate HI (Child Pugh B) or severe HI (Child Pugh C). Cyclobenzaprine exposure (AUC) was increased in patients with mild HI and moderate HI compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, which may increase the risk of TONMYA-associated adverse reactions.
Please see additional safety information in the full Prescribing Information.
To report suspected adverse reactions, contact Tonix Medicines, Inc. at 1-888-869-7633, or the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch.

About FLAMINGO-01 and GLSI-100
FLAMINGO-01 (NCT05232916) is a Phase III clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GLSI-100 (GP2 + GM-CSF) in HER2 positive breast cancer patients who had residual disease or high-risk pathologic complete response at surgery and who have completed both neoadjuvant and postoperative adjuvant trastuzumab based treatment. The trial is led by Baylor College of Medicine and currently includes US and European clinical sites from university-based hospitals and academic and cooperative networks with plans to open up to 150 sites globally. In the double-blinded arms of the Phase III trial, approximately 500 HLA-A*02 patients will be randomized to GLSI-100 or placebo, and up to 250 patients of other HLA types will be treated with GLSI-100 in a third arm. The trial has been designed to detect a hazard ratio of 0.3 in invasive breast cancer-free survival, where 28 events will be required. An interim analysis for superiority and futility will be conducted when at least half of those events, 14, have occurred. This sample size provides 80% power if the annual rate of events in placebo-treated subjects is 2.4% or greater.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CoreCivic, Inc. (NYSE: CXW) (“CoreCivic”) announced today that it has been awarded two new contracts with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (“ICE”) to utilize 3,593 beds at two facilities we own in core enforcement areas of the United States. Once fully activated, we expect to generate total annual revenue at the two facilities combined of nearly $200 million.
California City Immigration Processing Center – 2,560 beds
New contract with ICE to utilize our 2,560-bed California City Immigration Processing Center. We have been preparing to accept detainees at this facility since April 1, 2025, when we entered into a six-month Letter Contract with ICE to resume operations at the facility while we worked to negotiate and execute a longer-term contract.
We began receiving detainees at the facility on August 27, 2025 under terms of the Letter Contract. Transitioning from a Letter Contract to the definitive contract effective September 1, 2025 will result in variability in revenue and cash flow as we continue to successfully hire staff and receive additional detainees during the activation period. We currently expect the activation to be complete in the first quarter of 2026, achieving a normalized run-rate in the second quarter of 2026. Total annual revenue once the activation is complete is expected to be approximately $130 million. The new contract expires in August 2027.
Midwest Regional Reception Center – 1,033 beds
New contract with ICE at our 1,033-bed Midwest Regional Reception Center in Leavenworth, Kansas. We entered into a six-month Letter Contract with ICE on March 7, 2025 to begin activation efforts at the facility while we worked to negotiate and execute a longer-term contract. Although we have been successful in hiring staff and have prepared the facility to accept detainees during this term, the intake process has been delayed by legal challenges.
The new contract commenced on September 7, 2025, and is for a term of 24 months. The agreement provides for a fixed monthly payment plus an incremental per diem payment based on detainee populations, both of which commence once the temporary injunction currently prohibiting the intake of detainees is no longer enforceable. Total annual revenue once the facility is fully activated is expected to be approximately $60 million. However, we cannot predict if or when the legal challenges will be successfully resolved.
Damon T. Hininger, CoreCivic’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to announce the finalization of contracts for these two facilities, both of which were idle at the beginning of the year. The geographic locations of each of these facilities will enhance our ability to support our government partner in its effort to enforce immigration laws in areas of need across the United States. Looking forward, we anticipate additional contracting activity that will help satisfy ICE’s growing needs.”
Patrick D. Swindle, CoreCivic’s President and Chief Operating Officer, added, “Once fully activated, these two facilities are expected to generate combined annual revenue of nearly $200 million. While the intake process has been delayed at the Midwest Regional Reception Center, we will offer newly hired employees opportunities to be redeployed at our other activations until the legal challenges are resolved. Our team continues to work hard on activating our idle facilities, which helps lay the foundation for continued earnings growth into 2026 and beyond.”

Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial planned to evaluate TNX-2900 in children and adolescents (ages 8 to 17.5 years) with Prader-Willi Syndrome under a cleared IND
TNX-2900 granted Orphan Drug and Rare Pediatric Disease Designations by the FDA, providing the potential for a Priority Review Voucher upon approval
Magnesium-potentiated intranasal oxytocin formulation designed to reduce dose-related inconsistencies in receptor activity
CHATHAM, N.J., Sept. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP), a fully-integrated commercial-stage biotechnology company with innovative marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced plans to progress its TNX-2900 program for the treatment of Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) into a Phase 2 clinical trial. TNX-2900 is a proprietary magnesium-potentiated intranasal oxytocin formulation designed to improve receptor binding and decrease dose-related inconsistencies in receptor activity. The program has received both Orphan Drug and Rare Pediatric Disease designations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), which would make Tonix eligible for a transferable Priority Review Voucher, upon approval. The FDA has cleared the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for TNX-2900 to progress into Phase 2 development.
“We are pleased to advance TNX-2900 into a Phase 2 trial for PWS, a condition with unmet needs for new medicines with activity and tolerability,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “Families caring for children with PWS face significant challenges and burdens. Among them is hyperphagia which drives persistent food-seeking behaviors that require constant supervision and often result in obesity and serious medical complications. With an average life expectancy of less than 30 years, treatment of PWS remains an urgent and unmet need. By addressing limitations of traditional oxytocin delivery, we believe TNX-2900 has the potential to become an FDA-approved therapy targeting the oxytocin receptor in PWS and provide meaningful benefit for patients and families living with this rare disorder.”
Tonix plans to conduct a Phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-design study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of TNX-2900 in male and female participants with PWS, ages 8 to 17.5 years. Eligible participants will be randomized to receive 12-weeks of treatment with TNX-2900 at one of three dose levels, or placebo, in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The primary efficacy endpoint will be the change from baseline in the validated Hyperphagia Questionnaire for Clinical Trials (HQ-CT), a widely used measure of hyperphagia severity in PWS. Secondary objectives will include assessments of behavior, caregiver burden, and quality of life measures, as well as safety and tolerability outcomes.
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder and the leading cause of life-threatening childhood obesity, affecting about 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 30,000 births. Infants often present with poor muscle tone and feeding difficulties, while children and adolescents develop hyperphagia, behavioral challenges, and severe obesity and metabolic disease. Current interventions are difficult to sustain and often inadequate.
Research suggests PWS is associated with a functional deficiency of oxytocin, a neuropeptide that regulates satiety and feeding behaviors through the oxytocin receptor. Oxytocin treatment addresses several key features of PWS expressed in the MAGEL2 (MAGE-like 2) knock-out mouse.1 Intranasal oxytocin therapy has shown benefits in infants with PWS.2 Carbetocin has a different spectrum of activity on oxytocin and vasopressin receptors than oxytocin and carbetocin has not been tested to our knowledge in the MAGEL2 knock-out mouse.3 Oxytocin has dose-related inconsistencies in receptor activity that have been described as “high-dose suppression” or an “inverted “U” dose response.4 TNX-2900 is formulated with magnesium to further enhance oxytocin receptor binding and signaling, with the goal of providing more consistent and selective receptor activation while minimizing off-target vasopressin effects. In vitro and in vivo in animals Mg++– containing formulations reduce these inconsistencies.4
About Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS)
PWS is recognized as the most common genetic cause of life-threatening childhood obesity and affects males and females with equal frequency and all races and ethnicities. PWS results from the absence of expression of a group of genes, specifically related to the MAGE (melanoma antigen) gene family on the Prader–Willi critical region (15q11–q13) on the paternally acquired chromosome. The hallmarks of PWS are lack of suckling in newborns and, in children and adolescents, severe hyperphagia – an overriding physiological drive to eat, leading to severe obesity and other complications associated with significant mortality. A systematic review of the morbidity and mortality as a consequence of hyperphagia in PWS found that the average age of death in PWS was 22.1 years.5 Given the serious or life-threatening manifestations of these conditions, there is a critical need for effective treatments to decrease morbidity and mortality, improve quality of life, and increase life expectancy in people with PWS. Oxytocin has potent effects in correcting behavioral characteristics of the MAGEL2 knock-out mouse model for PWS and autism. 1,6,7 Six clinical trials have investigated intranasal oxytocin as a treatment in pediatric patients with PWS. Four clinical studies showed evidence for improvement in PWS-related behaviors/symptoms/2,810 Three of these clinical studies reported evidence for improvement in hyperphagia8-10 and one showed an improvement in sucking in infants.2

About TNX-2900 and Tonix’s Potentiated Oxytocin Platform
TNX-2900 is based on Tonix’s patented intranasal Mg2+-potentiated oxytocin formulation intended for use by children and adolescents. This formulation is believed to enhance the potency of oxytocin as well as increase specificity for oxytocin receptors relative to vasopressin receptors, potentially reducing unwanted side effects from activating vasopressin receptors. In collaboration with academic investigators, Tonix is also testing a different intranasal formulation, designated TNX-1900 for adolescent obesity, binge eating disorder, bone health in autism, and social anxiety disorder. Oxytocin is a naturally occurring human hormone that acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. Oxytocin is believed to be more than 600 million years old and is present in vertebrates including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and fish. It was initially approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as Pitocin®, an intravenous infusion or intramuscular injection drug, for use in pregnant women to induce labor and control postpartum bleeding or hemorrhage. An intranasal formulation of oxytocin is marketed in some European countries to assist in breast milk production as Syntocinon® (oxytocin nasal 40 international units/ml).

TONMYA is indicated for the treatment of fibromyalgia in adults.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
TONMYA is contraindicated:
In patients with hypersensitivity to cyclobenzaprine or any inactive ingredient in TONMYA. Hypersensitivity reactions may manifest as an anaphylactic reaction, urticaria, facial and/or tongue swelling, or pruritus. Discontinue TONMYA if a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected.
With concomitant use of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors or within 14 days after discontinuation of an MAO inhibitor. Hyperpyretic crisis seizures and deaths have occurred in patients who received cyclobenzaprine (or structurally similar tricyclic antidepressants) concomitantly with MAO inhibitors drugs.
During the acute recovery phase of myocardial infarction, and in patients with arrhythmias, heart block or conduction disturbances, or congestive heart failure.
In patients with hyperthyroidism.
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Embryofetal toxicity: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause neural tube defects when used two weeks prior to conception and during the first trimester of pregnancy. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk and to use effective contraception during treatment and for two weeks after the final dose. Perform a pregnancy test prior to initiation of treatment with TONMYA to exclude use of TONMYA during the first trimester of pregnancy.
Serotonin syndrome: Concomitant use of TONMYA with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), tricyclic antidepressants, tramadol, bupropion, meperidine, verapamil, or MAO inhibitors increases the risk of serotonin syndrome, a potentially life-threatening condition. Serotonin syndrome symptoms may include mental status changes, autonomic instability, neuromuscular abnormalities, and/or gastrointestinal symptoms. Treatment with TONMYA and any concomitant serotonergic agent should be discontinued immediately if serotonin syndrome symptoms occur and supportive symptomatic treatment should be initiated. If concomitant treatment with TONMYA and other serotonergic drugs is clinically warranted, careful observation is advised, particularly during treatment initiation or dosage increases.
Tricyclic antidepressant-like adverse reactions: Cyclobenzaprine is structurally related to TCAs. TCAs have been reported to produce arrhythmias, sinus tachycardia, prolongation of the conduction time leading to myocardial infarction and stroke. If clinically significant central nervous system (CNS) symptoms develop, consider discontinuation of TONMYA. Caution should be used when TCAs are given to patients with a history of seizure disorder, because TCAs may lower the seizure threshold. Patients with a history of seizures should be monitored during TCA use to identify recurrence of seizures or an increase in the frequency of seizures.
Atropine-like effects: Use with caution in patients with a history of urinary retention, angle-closure glaucoma, increased intraocular pressure, and in patients taking anticholinergic drugs.
CNS depression and risk of operating a motor vehicle or hazardous machinery: TONMYA monotherapy may cause CNS depression. Concomitant use of TONMYA with alcohol, barbiturates, or other CNS depressants may increase the risk of CNS depression. Advise patients not to operate a motor vehicle or dangerous machinery until they are reasonably certain that TONMYA therapy will not adversely affect their ability to engage in such activities.
Oral mucosal adverse reactions: In clinical studies with TONMYA, oral mucosal adverse reactions occurred more frequently in patients treated with TONMYA compared to placebo. Advise patients to moisten the mouth with sips of water before administration of TONMYA to reduce the risk of oral sensory changes (hypoesthesia). Consider discontinuation of TONMYA if severe reactions occur.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most common adverse reactions (incidence ≥2% and at a higher incidence in TONMYA-treated patients compared to placebo-treated patients) were oral hypoesthesia, oral discomfort, abnormal product taste, somnolence, oral paresthesia, oral pain, fatigue, dry mouth, and aphthous ulcer.
DRUG INTERACTIONS
MAO inhibitors: Life-threatening interactions may occur.
Other serotonergic drugs: Serotonin syndrome has been reported.
CNS depressants: CNS depressant effects of alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants may be enhanced.
Tramadol: Seizure risk may be enhanced.
Guanethidine or other similar acting drugs: The antihypertensive action of these drugs may be blocked.
USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS
Pregnancy: Based on animal data, TONMYA may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. The limited amount of available observational data on oral cyclobenzaprine use in pregnancy is of insufficient quality to inform a TONMYA-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Advise pregnant women about the potential risk to the fetus with maternal exposure to TONMYA and to avoid use of TONMYA two weeks prior to conception and through the first trimester of pregnancy. Report pregnancies to the Tonix Medicines, Inc., adverse-event reporting line at 1-888-869-7633 (1-888-TNXPMED).
Lactation: A small number of published cases report the transfer of cyclobenzaprine into human milk in low amounts, but these data cannot be confirmed. There are no data on the effects of cyclobenzaprine on a breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for TONMYA and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from TONMYA or from the underlying maternal condition.
Pediatric use: The safety and effectiveness of TONMYA have not been established.
Geriatric patients: Of the total number of TONMYA-treated patients in the clinical trials in adult patients with fibromyalgia, none were 65 years of age and older. Clinical trials of TONMYA did not include sufficient numbers of patients 65 years of age and older to determine whether they respond differently from younger adult patients.
Hepatic impairment: The recommended dosage of TONMYA in patients with mild hepatic impairment (HI) (Child Pugh A) is 2.8 mg once daily at bedtime, lower than the recommended dosage in patients with normal hepatic function. The use of TONMYA is not recommended in patients with moderate HI (Child Pugh B) or severe HI (Child Pugh C). Cyclobenzaprine exposure (AUC) was increased in patients with mild HI and moderate HI compared to subjects with normal hepatic function, which may increase the risk of TONMYA-associated adverse reactions.
Please see additional safety information in the full Prescribing Information.
