Novel formulation of intranasal oxytocin contains magnesium (Mg2+), shown to potentiate the analgesic effects of oxytocin on the oxytocin receptor in animal models
TNX-1900 blocks release of CGRP, a key peptide in the pathogenesis of migraine, from trigeminal ganglia neurons while limiting systemic exposure
CHATHAM, N.J., Oct. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq: TNXP), a biopharmaceutical company with marketed products and a pipeline of development candidates, today announced the completion of the clinical phase of the Phase 2 proof-of-concept, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled PREVENTION1 study of TNX-19002 (intranasal potentiated oxytocin) as a potential treatment for the prevention of migraine headaches in chronic migraineurs. A total of 88 patients were enrolled in this multi-site study in the U.S. Topline results are expected in early December 2023.
TNX-1900 is a proprietary formulation of oxytocin that contains magnesium, which Tonix has shown in animal models potentiates the action of oxytocin at oxytocin receptors and potentially improves the consistency of treatment by reducing paradoxical high-dose inhibition. Its unique, multimodal mechanism of action includes an ability to inhibit the release of the trigeminal neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in blood vessels within the brain, its lining and the brainstem, and to suppress signaling in pain neurons. Tonix believes that by engaging and activating oxytocin receptors in the trigeminal ganglia, TNX-1900 has the potential to help those suffering from chronic migraine.
“TNX-1900 is being developed as a novel, non-CGRP antagonist approach to treatment for chronic migraineurs,” said Seth Lederman, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “There are an estimated four million individuals in the U.S. suffering from this debilitating condition, and despite several classes of migraine preventives available, there remains an unmet need for novel approaches.”
“With the last patient now treated, we look forward to analysis of the results of this proof-of-concept study, which will help to inform our plans as we discuss next steps with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA),” said Gregory Sullivan, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Tonix Pharmaceuticals. “We would like to thank the participants, their families, and all the investigators and researchers who have been an important part of this journey so far.”
1Clinical Trials.gov I.D. NCT05679908 2TNX-1900 is an investigational new drug and is not approved for any indication.
About the Phase 2 PREVENTION Study The Phase 2 PREVENTION study is a double-blind, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TNX-1900 taken prophylactically on a daily basis to prevent chronic migraine. There are three arms: two treatment regimens of TNX-1900 and one placebo in a 1:1:1 ratio in a total of 88 participants across approximately 26 U.S. sites. After a four-week Run-In phase to confirm chronic migraine criteria are met, there are 12-weeks of a double-blind Treatment phase with study drug, followed by a 2-week safety Follow-Up phase. The primary efficacy endpoint is mean change in the number of migraine headache days between the 28-day Run-In phase and the last 28-days of the Treatment phase. Key secondary efficacy endpoints include proportion of patients experiencing a ≥ 50% reduction in the number of migraine headache days, mean change in the number of days using migraine abortive medications, and mean change in a migraine-specific quality of life measure.

About Migraine Migraine is a neurological condition that typically manifests in a throbbing moderate to severe headache which lasts at least four hours, often on one side of the head and aggravated by routine physical activity. It can also be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, visual disturbances, and sensitivity to bright light and loud noises1. Epidemiological studies indicate that globally, approximately 1.2 billion individuals suffer from migraines annually2. In the U.S., approximately 39 million Americans suffer from migraines and among these individuals, approximately four million experience chronic migraines (15 or more headache days per month, at least eight of which are migraines)2. The current FDA approved drugs for migraine prevention in chronic migraine include Botox® (onabotulinumtoxinA), and the anti-CGRP/CGRP-R monoclonal antibodies Aimovig® (erenumab), Vyepti® (eptinezumab), Ajovy® (fremanezumab) and Emgality® (galcanezumab).

About TNX-1900 TNX-1900 (intranasal potentiated oxytocin) is a proprietary formulation of oxytocin in development as a candidate for prevention in chronic migraine and other conditions. In 2020, TNX-1900 was acquired from Trigemina, Inc. who had licensed the technology underlying the composition and method from Stanford University. TNX-1900 is a drug-device combination product, based on an intranasal actuator device that delivers oxytocin into the nasal cavity. Oxytocin is a naturally occurring human peptide hormone that also acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain. Oxytocin has no recognized addiction potential. It has been observed that low oxytocin levels in the body are associated with increases in migraine headache frequency, and that increased oxytocin levels are associated with fewer migraine headaches. Certain other chronic pain conditions are also associated with decreased oxytocin levels. Migraine attacks are caused, in part, by the activity of pain-sensing trigeminal neurons which, when activated, release of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) which binds to receptors on other nerve cells and starts a cascade of events that is believed to result in headache. Oxytocin, when delivered via the nasal route, concentrates in the trigeminal system1 resulting in binding of oxytocin to receptors on neurons in the trigeminal system, inhibiting the release of CGRP and transmission of pain signals returning from the site of CGRP release2. Blocking CGRP release is a distinct mechanism compared with CGRP antagonist and anti-CGRP antibody drugs, which block the binding of CGRP to its receptor. With TNX-1900, the addition of magnesium to the oxytocin formulation enhances oxytocin receptor binding3 as well as its inhibitory effects on trigeminal neurons and resultant craniofacial analgesic effects, as demonstrated in animal models4. Intranasal oxytocin has been shown to be well tolerated in several clinical trials in both adults and children5. Targeted nasal delivery results in low systemic exposure and lower risk of non-nervous system, off-target effects, which could potentially occur with systemic CGRP antagonists such as anti-CGRP antibodies6. For example, CGRP has roles in dilating blood vessels in response to ischemia, including in the heart. The Company believes nasally targeted delivery of oxytocin could translate into selective blockade of CGRP release from neurons in the trigeminal ganglion and not throughout the body, which could be a potential safety advantage over systemic CGRP inhibition. In addition, daily dosing is more rapidly reversible, in contrast to monthly or quarterly dosing, as is the case with anti-CGRP antibodies, giving physicians and their patients greater control. In addition to chronic migraine, TNX-1900 will be developed for treatment of episodic migraine, binge eating disorder, craniofacial pain conditions, and insulin resistance. Tonix also has a license with the University of Geneva to use TNX-1900 for the treatment of insulin resistance and related conditions.

Management Commentary
“As CFO Scott Thanisch and I marked our first anniversary with Orion, we are incredibly proud of how our people have worked collaboratively to embrace change and deliver positive results,” said Travis Boone, Chief Executive Officer of Orion Group Holdings. “Backlog is a key metric and indicator of the health of the business. As of September 30, backlog stood at $878 million compared with backlog of $549 million in the prior year period. We have won several prestigious projects including the $435 million contract to build a dry dock at Pearl Harbor for the US Navy and a contract valued over $100 million with the Grand Bahama Shipyard Limited (GBSL) for the turnkey design-build of the Grand Bahama Shipyard Dry Dock Replacement Project.”
“Last quarter we told you that we expected continued improvement in profitability through the back half of the year, and we are delivering on that promise. Third-quarter Adjusted EBITDA was $9.4 million versus $3.7 million in the second quarter of 2023. While our third quarter revenue of $169 million is down year-over-year due to our exit from the Central Texas concrete business, the higher quality of our revenue is delivering improved profitability.”
“Since March, our Concrete business has been profitable and improving on an Adjusted EBITDA basis. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased from negative 1.7% to positive 2.4% year-over-year. In addition, the Concrete business was operating income positive on an unconsolidated basis in the third quarter. In Marine, we have a lot of momentum with projects won and potential future projects. There’s a tremendous amount of pent-up demand that we think will be a significant tailwind for us well into 2024 and 2025.”
“As we look ahead to the fourth quarter and beyond, we are optimistic. Our investments in business development are paying off, and we have sufficient capacity and a more disciplined approach to optimize our people and assets. We will see continued improvement in our margins and benefit from operating leverage as we grow the top line. We are excited to build on our success this year and continue growing profitably in 2024,” concluded Boone.
Third Quarter 2023 Results
Contract revenues of $168.5 million decreased 7.7% from $182.6 million in the third quarter last year, primarily due to our decision to exit the unprofitable concrete business in central Texas, partially offset by an increase in marine segment revenue related to the Pearl Harbor, Hawaii drydock project (the “Pearl Harbor Project”).
Gross profit was $19.1 million or 11.3% of revenue up from $13.4 million or 7.4% of revenue in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in gross profit dollars and margin was primarily driven by margin improvements in both segments stemming from higher quality projects and improved execution, partially offset by lower equipment and labor utilization in our dredging business.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $17.1 million, up 11.4% from $15.4 million in the third quarter of 2022. As a percentage of total contract revenues, SG&A expenses increased to 10.2% from 8.5%, primarily due to lower revenues and an increase in SG&A in the third quarter. The increase in SG&A dollars reflected an increase in IT and business development spending and higher legal costs related to customer claims.
Net loss for the third quarter was $0.7 million or $0.02 per diluted share compared to net income of $0.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2022.
The third quarter 2023 net loss included $1.5 million ($0.04 diluted income per share) of non-recurring items. Third quarter 2023 adjusted net income was $0.8 million ($0.02 diluted income per share).
EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was $8.7 million, representing a 5.2% EBITDA margin, as compared to EBITDA of $7.2 million, or a 4.0% EBITDA margin in the third quarter last year. Adjusted for non-recurring items, EBITDA for the third quarter of 2023 was $9.4 million, representing a 5.6% adjusted EBITDA margin, as compared to adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2022 of $8.8 million, representing a 4.8% adjusted EBITDA margin.
Backlog
Total backlog at September 30, 2023 was $877.5 million, compared to $818.7 million at June 30, 2023 and $548.6 million at September 30, 2022. Backlog for the Marine segment was $699.9 million, compared to $614.9 million at June 30, 2023 and $280.2 million at September 30, 2022. Backlog for the Concrete segment was $177.6 million, compared to $203.8 million at June 30, 2023 and $268.4 million at September 30, 2022. In addition, the Company has been awarded $43 million in new project work subsequent to the end of the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that is not included in backlog at the end of the quarter.
Recent Wins
On September 22, the Company entered into a design-build contract valued over $100 million for its Marine and Engineering business. The contract was awarded by Grand Bahama Shipyard Limited (GBSL) for the turnkey design-build of the Grand Bahama Shipyard Dry Dock Replacement Project, situated in Grand Bahama, Bahamas. In addition, the Company was recently awarded other new contracts in both its concrete and marine segments for a combined total of approximately $121 million.
Safety Award
Orion Group Holdings, Inc. was presented with the Company Award for Leadership in Safety from the Council of Dredging and Marine Construction Safety (CDMCS).

Backlog Definition
Backlog consists of projects under contract that have either (a) not been started, or (b) are in progress but are not yet complete. The Company cannot guarantee that the revenue implied by its backlog will be realized, or, if realized, will result in earnings. Backlog can fluctuate from period to period due to the timing and execution of contracts. The typical duration of the Company’s projects ranges from three to nine months on shorter projects to multiple years on larger projects. The Company’s backlog at any point in time includes both revenue it expects to realize during the next twelve-month period as well as revenue it expects to realize in future years.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes the financial measures “adjusted net income/loss,” “adjusted earnings/loss per share,” “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA margin.” These measurements are “non-GAAP financial measures” under rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, including Regulation G. The non-GAAP financial information may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. By reporting such non-GAAP financial information, the Company does not intend to give such information greater prominence than comparable GAAP financial information. Investors are urged to consider these non-GAAP measures in addition to and not in substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted net income/loss and adjusted earnings/loss per share should not be viewed as an equivalent financial measure to net income/loss or earnings/loss per share. Adjusted net income/loss and adjusted earnings/loss per share exclude certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful evaluation of the Company’s financial performance. The Company believes these adjusted financial measures are a useful supplement to earnings/loss calculated in accordance with GAAP because they better inform our common stockholders as to the Company’s operational trends and performance relative to other companies. Generally, items excluded are one-time items or items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Accordingly, any guidance provided by the Company generally excludes information regarding these types of items.
Orion Group Holdings defines EBITDA as net income/loss before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for certain items that management believes impairs a meaningful comparison of operating results. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for the period by contract revenues for the period. The GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income, while the GAAP financial measure that is most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA margin is operating margin, which represents operating income divided by contract revenues. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are used internally to evaluate current operating expense, operating efficiency, and operating profitability on a variable cost basis, by excluding the depreciation and amortization expenses, primarily related to capital expenditures and acquisitions, and net interest and tax expenses. Additionally, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin provide useful information regarding the Company’s ability to meet future debt service and working capital requirements while providing an overall evaluation of the Company’s financial condition. In addition, EBITDA is used internally for incentive compensation purposes. The Company includes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin to provide transparency to investors as they are commonly used by investors and others in assessing performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have certain limitations as analytical tools and should not be used as a substitute for operating margin, net income, cash flows, or other data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of the Company’s profitability or liquidity.

Shares of Siemens Energy took a nosedive on Thursday after the German wind power firm revealed it is seeking financial guarantees from the government to shore up its balance sheet. The company’s stock plunged over 32% amid concerns over ongoing problems at its wind turbine manufacturing subsidiary Siemens Gamesa.
This latest crisis of confidence in Siemens Energy comes after a tumultuous year where the company scrapped its profit forecasts due to major setbacks at Siemens Gamesa. Persistent quality control issues and production delays have plagued Siemens Gamesa, dragging down the parent company’s financial performance. Siemens Energy shocked investors earlier this year when it warned that these issues could persist for years.
Now Siemens Energy is looking to the German government for a lifeline to provide the guarantees it needs for long-term projects and growth ambitions. With its strong order intake and project pipeline, Siemens requires sizeable guarantees to move forward. It remains unclear exactly how much financing Siemens Energy is seeking from the government and what form this support may take. The company is holding preliminary talks with German officials, banks, and other stakeholders to find a solution.
For investors, this latest turmoil calls Siemens Energy’s financial health into question. While the company left its 2023 guidance unchanged, its stock has been battered this year. Shares are down nearly 60% year-to-date due to the cascading problems at Siemens Gamesa. The turbine troubles will continue to be a dark cloud over Siemens Energy until substantial progress is made on quality control and production. Siemens Gamesa’s issues with offshore wind ramp up also remain a glaring concern.
All of this uncertainty around Siemens Energy and its finances have sent investors rushing for the exits. But for bargain hunters, the plummeting stock could also look like a tempting buying opportunity. Siemens Energy maintains a strong long-term outlook in the booming renewable energy market. Demand for wind power is surging, especially in Europe, as countries move aggressively toward carbon neutrality. Siemens Energy still boasts an enviable portfolio of technology and intellectual property in the industry.
If Siemens Energy can weather its current storms, its future prospects in offshore and onshore wind power remain bright. But the company must fix its turbine troubles and strengthen its balance sheet to fully capture the potential ahead. For conservative investors, it may be best to wait on the sidelines until more clarity emerges. But for speculators willing to stomach volatility and risk, Siemens Energy’s swooning shares could offer a high-risk, high-reward proposition.
Much depends on whether the German government views Siemens Energy as simply too big and important to fail. Germany is staking much of its economic future on renewable energy leadership. Having a national industrial champion falter so badly would be an embarrassment and setback. Siemens Energy is essentially making the case that it’s too strategically vital for Germany’s interests to be allowed to flounder.
Yet the German government also has to be wary of setting a precedent of bailing out struggling companies at taxpayer expense. Germany may be willing to extend credit guarantees to Siemens Energy, but direct financial aid seems unlikely. The coming months will be crucial in determining if Siemens Energy can right itself and deliver on its clean energy ambitions. For investors, the ride may continue to be bumpy until the company can prove it has turned a corner.

Third Quarter Results. Revenue for Orion was $168.5 million, a 7.7% decrease from $182.6 million last year reflecting the exit of the Central Texas concrete market. Adjusted net income for the quarter was $0.8 million, or diluted EPS of $0.02, flat with last year. Adjusted EBTIDA was $9.4 million compared to $8.8 million in the previous year.
Better Margins. Although revenue decreased year-over-year, Orion showcased better margin improvement in its gross and adjusted EBITDA margins through taking higher quality projects and better execution. Gross margin improved to 11.3% from 7.4% last year and adjusted EBITDA to 5.6% from 4.8%. We believe margin improvement can continue as the Company further implements its current strategy and executes it, and puts another feather in the Company’s cap heading into the new year.

Private placement oversubscribed. LithiumBank recently closed a private placement of 3,506,500 units at a price of C$1.00 per unit. Originally, the company had planned to raise C$2 million, which was later increased to C$3 million. Each unit is comprised of one common share of the company and one-half of one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase an additional share at a price of C$1.50 per share for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. Coupled with over C$6 million designated for exploration, the financing provides discretionary funds to advance LithiumBank’s Boardwalk and Park Place projects and accelerate pilot plant testing with G2L Greenview Resources.
Significant insider participation. Demonstrating their own commitment and confidence in LithiumBank, insiders of the company purchased 970,000 units or 27.66% of the total units offered in the private placement.

Our Discussion Included Eledon’s Science, Markets, and Company Strategy. We recently spoke with the Eledon CEO, Dr. DA Gros, as part of our C-Suite Interview Series. Our interview included the scientific principles on which tegoprubart is based, the unmet need in kidney transplantation, and the current clinical trials. Dr. Gros also discussed additional tegoprubart indications, company finances, and future milestones.
Eledon Is Pursuing An Unmet Need In Kidney Transplantation. Dr. Gros described how tegoprubart blocks a step in the immune response that has applications in many immune disorders. The first application in development is for prevention of kidney transplant rejection, where the current standard of care drugs are effective but have toxic side effects that lead to organ failure after 10 to 12 years. Tegoprubart is currently in two clinical trials for this indication.

The US economy demonstrated its resilience in the third quarter, with GDP growing at an annualized rate of 4.9% according to the Commerce Department. This growth rate exceeded economists’ expectations of 4.7% and represents a significant rebound from Q2’s growth of 2.1%.
The robust GDP growth was powered by strength in consumer spending, which rose 4% in Q3 after lackluster growth of just 0.8% in the previous quarter. Consumers clearly opened their wallets again over the summer despite high inflation and interest rate hikes from the Federal Reserve. With consumer spending accounting for about two-thirds of economic activity, this reacceleration was pivotal in driving overall growth.
Other factors contributing to GDP growth included business investment, government spending, exports, and inventory accumulation. Housing also provided a lift, with residential investment posting a solid 26.8% growth rate versus declines in the first half of 2023.
For investors, the better than expected GDP report signals the US economy remains on solid ground, defying recession predictions. However, risks still loom on the horizon that could derail growth. Surging inflation and the Fed’s aggressive rate hikes to contain prices remain headwinds. Ongoing geopolitical tensions, a wobbly stock market, and other challenges could also dampen economic activity going forward.
The GDP data will likely give the Fed confidence to stay the course with its tightening monetary policy. Another massive interest rate hike of 75 basis points is widely expected at next week’s FOMC meeting as the central bank keeps its foot on the brake to slow demand and curb inflation. While the economy has proven resilient so far, the delayed impact of the Fed’s actions will almost certainly be felt in the coming quarters.
For investors, resilience is the key takeaway from the Q3 GDP report in the face of tremendous uncertainty. However, resilience should not be mistaken for invincibility. Moderating consumer spending, shrinking business investment, and the full brunt of Fed tightening suggest slower growth lies ahead. While a recession may not be imminent, markets could endure further turbulence as the economy downshifts.
The path forward for investors calls for caution and patience. Sticking to a long-term perspective focused on quality is crucial, as economic slowdowns and market volatility persist. Maintaining diversification across asset classes can help smooth out the ride during turbulent times. With recession risks lingering, investors may want to emphasize defensive sectors and blue-chip companies with strong cash flows.
The Q3 GDP surprise allows investors to breathe a momentary sigh of relief. But uncertainty still prevails, and slowing growth is likely in coming quarters. Patience and prudence remain vital virtues for investors in these complicated economic times. While the US economy has shown its mettle so far, the investing environment ahead will require careful navigation.
Tech stocks have taken it on the chin over the past two days, with the Nasdaq tumbling nearly 3.5%, despite stellar earnings reports from two giants in the space. Alphabet and Meta both exceeded expectations with their latest quarterly results, yet saw their shares plunge amid broader concerns about economic conditions weighing on future growth.
Alphabet posted robust advertising revenues, with Google Search and YouTube continuing to hum along as profit drivers. However, its Google Cloud division came up shy of estimates, expanding at a slower pace as clients apparently pulled back on spending. This reignited worries about Alphabet’s ability to gain ground on the cloud leaders Amazon and Microsoft.
Meanwhile, Meta also topped analyst forecasts, led by better ad revenues at Facebook and Instagram. But in the earnings call, Meta CFO Susan Li warned that the conflict in the Middle East could impact advertising demand in the fourth quarter. This injected uncertainty into Meta’s outlook, leading the stock lower.
The sell-off in these tech titans reflects overall investor angst regarding the challenging macroeconomic environment. While both companies beat expectations for the just-completed quarter, lingering headwinds such as high inflation, rising interest rates, and global conflicts have markets on edge.
Details
This skittishness has erased the gains tech stocks had made earlier in the year after a dismal 2022. Meta and Alphabet remain in positive territory year-to-date, but have given back chunks of their rallies from earlier this year. Other tech firms like Amazon and Apple are also dealing with the fallout ahead of their upcoming earnings reports.
The market is taking a “sell first, ask questions later” approach with these stocks right now. Even as fundamentals remain relatively sound, any whiff of weakness or caution from management is being seized upon as a reason to sell. The slightest negative data point is exaggerated amid the unsettled backdrop.
Both Alphabet and Meta have been aggressively cutting costs after overindulging during the pandemic boom years. But investors are now laser-focused on the revenue outlook, rather than celebrating the expense discipline. If top-line growth decelerates materially, the bottom-line gains from cost reductions will be moot.
For now, the Nasdaq remains in a confirmed uptrend, so this could prove to be just a brief pullback before tech stocks regain their footing. Many firms in the sector remain highly profitable with solid balance sheets. But the risk is that slowing economic activity and consumer jitters will weigh on future earnings potential.
Tech investors may need to buckle up for more volatility ahead. The days of easy gains propelled by boundless growth and ultra-low interest rates appear to be over. Now tech companies face much more skeptical scrutiny of their business fundamentals. In an environment where growth is harder to come by, even stellar quarterly results may not be enough to pacify traders worried about what lies ahead.
