【C.S Group】: Launches Antcin A-Based Veterinary Drug Initiative Across Taiwan and China

TAIPEI, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Cordyceps Sunshine Biotech Holdings Co., Ltd.C.S Group announced a major milestone in veterinary drug development at the “Pharmacological Progress Conference for Taiwanofungus camphoratus Applications in the Pet Market,” co-hosted with the Chinese Herbal Fungi Industry Research and Development Association (CHFIRDA).

At the conference,C.S Group revealed its plans to enter the pet pharmaceutical market with a novel combination therapy that integrates Antcin A — a purified extract from Taiwanofungus camphoratus — with steroids. The company is preparing to launch Phase I clinical trials with the U.S. FDA later this year and simultaneously initiate veterinary drug registration processes in Taiwan and mainland China.

Taiwanofungus-Based Therapies Target Growing Pet Healthcare Needs

During the event, Dr. Chia-Hsin Huang, a leading authority on Taiwanofungus camphoratus, shared insights into the significant overlap between human and pet diseases, noting that pets frequently suffer from conditions such as skin disorders, allergies, inflammation, cancer, and immune system dysfunctions. Steroids are commonly prescribed by veterinarians for rapid symptom relief and are widely incorporated into topical creams, eye drops, ear treatments, as well as injectable and oral medications.

However, Dr. Huang cautioned against the risks of steroid overuse, citing side effects including increased appetite, excessive thirst and urination, weight gain, hair thinning, weakened skin, lethargy, and muscle weakness. He noted that prolonged steroid dependence can lead to serious complications: studies show that 54% of affected pets develop liver disease, 15% experience secondary diabetes, and 2% may suffer irreversible adrenal insufficiency — outcomes that can be fatal.

New research presented at the conference demonstrated that Antcin A exhibits potent anti-inflammatory properties similar to steroids. Initial studies combining TF-15 (a high-concentration Antcin A extract supplied byC.S Group) with dexamethasone (DXMS) in lung cancer cell models indicated a potential synergistic effect, suggesting new pathways for safer, more effective treatment regimens. According to Valuates Reports, the global market for veterinary steroids reached $38.3 billion USD in 2021 and continues to grow annually. Introducing Taiwanofungus-derived therapies to complement or replace traditional steroids could significantly expand market potential.

Mainland China’s Pet Healthcare Market Presents Huge Opportunity

Vincent Liu, Chief Technology Officer ofC.S Group‘s R&D Center, highlighted the growing scale of China’s pet industry. Based on projections from China Asset Information Network, the Chinese pet market is expected to reach RMB 649.09 billion (approximately USD 90 billion) by 2025, driven by rising pet ownership rates and increased per-pet spending.

C.S Group ‘s Greater China operations are supported by its exclusive partner, Guangdong Baoquan Agricultural Biotechnology. Baoquan holds the distinction of being China’s first privately-owned enterprise certified by the China Agricultural Ecology Research Institute as a demonstration base for standardized Taiwanofungus camphoratus cultivation. Leveraging strong ties with agricultural and veterinary medicine authorities, Baoquan plans to apply for veterinary import licenses in the second half of this year, further accelerating market entry.

Preparing for FDA Phase I Trials and Animal Drug Manufacturing Expansion

Dalan Huang, President of C.S Group, emphasized that following confirmation of Antcin A’s non-toxic safety profile and preliminary efficacy, the company will proceed with submitting an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the U.S. FDA for Phase I human clinical trials. These trials will assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in preparation for broader therapeutic applications. Plans are also underway to seek animal drug registration in Taiwan and to initiate the construction of a dedicated animal pharmaceutical manufacturing facility.

Injectable steroid therapies remain a standard treatment method for pets globally, supported by growing demand for pet healthcare and livestock development. In Taiwan alone, the veterinary injectable steroid market exceeded NT$1.5 billion (approximately USD 47 million) in 2022 and is forecasted to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.2% over the next five years.

Looking ahead,C.S Group aims to build on its scalable production of Taiwanofungus camphoratus by further enhancing the extraction of active ingredients, establishing a strong pet health brand, and expanding into both the pet food and pharmaceutical sectors. Targeting markets across Asia and Southeast Asia, the company is committed to delivering safe, natural solutions for pets, earning the trust of pet owners worldwide.

Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd Reports Full Year 2024 Financial Results

Highlights Positive Earnings Per Share and Substantial Cash Position of $11.11/share Amidst Challenging Economic Environment

SHANGHAI, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Nisun International Enterprise Development Group Co., Ltd (“Nisun International” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: NISN), a technology and industry-driven financing solutions provider and an integrated supply chain solutions provider, today announced its financial results for the full year ended December 31, 2024.

Recent Achievements and Highlights (as reported in the 20-F):

  • Reported total revenue of $340.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
  • Achieved net income of $5.9 million and positive earnings per share of $1.43 for the year ended December 31, 2024, including non-cash expenses of $9.2 million related to share-based compensation and $5.0 million related to provisions for bad debts.
  • Maintained a substantial cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash balance of $45.0 million as of December 31, 2024.
  • Continued investment in technology, talent, content, brand recognition, customer base expansion, and other initiatives.
  • Successfully navigated challenges posed by the economic slowdown in 2024 by scaling down bulk trading volume to minimize losses.

Management Commentary

Mr. Xin Liu, Chief Executive Officer of Nisun International, commented on the results, “The 2024 fiscal year presented a challenging operating environment, primarily due to the economic slowdown in China. This broad economic shift led to a more cautious approach from individual investors who fund SME financings, prompting SMEs themselves to reduce their corporate finance activities to minimize risk. As a provider of technology-driven customized financing solutions to SMEs, this environment directly impacted our SME financing solutions revenue, which saw a decline. Similarly, the economic slowdown and the high volatility in commodity market prices affected our supply chain trading revenues, particularly in bulk trading, where we strategically scaled down volume to manage potential losses.”

Mr. Liu continued, “Despite these headwinds affecting our financial performance in 2024, we remain focused on our long-term strategy and believe we are well-positioned for future growth. Our comprehensive technology-driven integrated supply chain financing solutions services, launched in January 2020, and our supply chain trading business, launched in July 2021 by leveraging our high-quality customer base and resources from supply chain financing solutions, are integral to our future. In the second half of 2024, we expanded our supply chain financing business into the gold industry, resulting in a $1.9 million increase in supply chain financing revenue compared to the first half of the year. We are actively building a solid pipeline of demand from our supply chain management and commodity trading customers. We believe this focus on integrated solutions will generate much higher margin technology financing solutions business in the future once investor risk appetite recovers and market conditions improve. Our substantial cash position also provides a solid foundation as we navigate the current economic climate and invest for the future.”

Full Year 2024 Financial Results Summary

For the year ended December 31, 2024, Nisun International reported total revenue of $340.2 million, a decrease of approximately 12% from $386.7 million in the prior year. The decline was primarily attributable to decreases in revenue from SME financing solutions services and supply chain trading, driven by the economic slowdown and market volatility.

Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $309.3 million, down 11% from $346.7 million in 2023, primarily reflecting the reduction in supply chain trading volume.

Gross profit was $30.9 million in 2024, a decrease of 23% from $39.9 million in 2023. The decline in gross profit was mainly due to the decrease in revenue, impacting SME financing services, supply chain financing solution services, and the supply chain trading business.

Income from operations for 2024 was $3.6 million, a decrease of 81% from $18.8 million in 2023.

Net income for fiscal year 2024 was $5.9 million, compared to $17.7 million for fiscal year 2023.

Net income per share for fiscal year 2024 was $1.43, compared to $4.46 for fiscal year 2023.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $45.0 million. Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $75.7 million in 2024, primarily reflecting higher advance deposits to key suppliers and other working-capital investments that position Nisun international to secure inventory and fulfill expanding customer demand. Management views this outflow as a strategic deployment of capital that lays the groundwork for future revenue growth and higher-margin opportunities as market conditions improve.

Hatem Dowidar, Group Chief Executive Officer of e&, said: “Q1 2025 marks another milestone in e&’s journey, with a strong performance across all fronts. Our consolidated revenue reached AED 16.9 billion while EBITDA amounted to AED 7.4 billion, growing year over year by 18.7% and 15.4%, respectively and benefiting from disciplined execution, dedicated customer focus and guided by our vision of being a global technology company.

“What sets e& apart is our ability to innovate, scale and deliver while navigating a competitive global landscape— from embedding AI across our business and deploying the region’s most advanced 5G networks, to expanding our footprint across three continents with the e& PPF Telecom investment at the end of 2024, we are building a digital ecosystem that empowers individuals, businesses, and governments. We are not only growing — we are shaping the digital future with intent, impact, and global ambition.

Strong first quarter results was crowned with the successful monetisation of our stake in the Khazna business at a lucrative valuation towards the end of March.

“These outcomes are not aspirational — they are clear proof points. We are translating our ambition into measurable performance via achieving robust financial performance, retaining our network leadership, scaling our footprint across high-potential markets and optimising our assets profile to create a sustainable value for our shareholders.”

Key Operational Highlights

e&

e& started 2025 with strong momentum, earning the ranking of “World’s Fastest Growing Brand” in the Brand Finance Global 500 report. e& received a AAA rating and a brand strength score of 84.6, ranking among the top 10 most valuable telecom brands worldwide. Its brand portfolio and investment value exceeded US$ 20 billion in 2025.

e& completed the divestment of its 40% stake in Khazna for a value of USD 2.2 billion (equivalent to AED 8.0 billion). The move reflects a strategic effort to unlock value, sharpen focus on core businesses and optimise its portfolio. It also enhances shareholder returns, strengthens financial flexibility, and reinforces e&’s commitment to long-term growth.

Maroc Telecom and Inwi (Wana Corporate) signed an expanded partnership to accelerate Morocco’s fibre optic and 5G rollout. The agreement includes the formation of two joint ventures: one focused on the deployment of fiber-optic passive infrastructure and the other dedicated to the rollout of new telecommunications towers. The partnership is still subject to obtaining the needed regulatory approvals.

In Davos, e& unveiled an innovative AI and Generative AI governance solution, developed in collaboration with IBM, to promote ethical, transparent and secure deployment of AI technologies. This framework supports compliance and risk oversight across the Group’s expanding AI ecosystem, reinforcing e&’s commitment to responsible innovation.

A joint study with the IBM Institute for Business Value, titled MENA’s AI Advantage: Opportunity to Leap Ahead and Lead,” explored the region’s potential to become a global AI leader. The report revealed that 65 per cent of MENA-based CEOs are championing Generative AI adoption – outpacing the global average – and highlighted how public-private collaboration, infrastructure investment, and skills development are accelerating AI integration across industries.

In an academic partnership, e& signed an MoU with NYU Abu Dhabi to advance research and development on 6G technology. The collaboration aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry, offering students early exposure to next-generation technologies while positioning the UAE as a hub for future connectivity.

Community empowerment also remained front and centre.

e& Carrier & Wholesale Services (C&WS) reaffirmed its position as a regional powerhouse by enhancing global connectivity and integrating AI across its operations. These efforts are opening up new commercial pathways for digital services at scale, while keeping pace with the demands of an increasingly data-driven global economy.

A major highlight of the quarter was the expansion of the Fujairah SmartHub Campus, with the addition of a fourth Tier-III data centre. The new facility added 1.5 MW of capacity, bolstering the UAE’s digital backbone and strengthening interconnectivity across the Middle East. The campus continues to serve as a vital gateway for global traffic flows, regional content hosting and low-latency cloud services.

In a joint effort with the UNDP and GSMA, e& introduced an AI-powered Social and Climate Platform that turns real-time, non-conventional data into actionable insights for policymakers across the Arab States and beyond. The initiative showcases how AI can be a force for inclusive, data-driven development, aligning with the Group’s broader sustainability agenda.

e& UAE

e& UAE started Q1 2025 with a series of product innovations and partnerships designed to meet evolving consumer expectations while reinforcing its leadership in connectivity and digital services.

Responding to growing demand for high-speed connectivity, the business launched Neo Home, a new line of 1Gbps fibre plans. Tailored for modern households, Neo Home offers seamless streaming, faster downloads, and customisable TV add-ons—delivering speed and flexibility.

e& UAE successfully completed the first phase of integrating AI into its private cloud for operations. This initiative, powered by Intel’s advanced AMX technology and Cisco’s cutting-edge networking and data centre solutions, aims to elevate e& UAE’s operational efficiency by leveraging AI and developing AI use cases across its business operations.

e& UAE deepened its collaboration with Samsung to bring the latest generation of AI-powered mobile experiences to customers across the country.

e& UAE has also launched a Kids SIM Card with flexible plans and a free Parental Control Service, offering features like content filtering, screen time limits, and social media monitoring to ensure a safe digital experience for children.

In a push to empower the country’s SMB ecosystem, e& UAE partnered with AI platform Aleria to offer tailored solutions that enhance decision-making, operational efficiency, and cost management. These tools reflect e&’s commitment to enabling businesses of all sizes to thrive in a competitive digital economy.

On the enterprise side, e& UAE deepened its partnership with Microsoft, deploying M365 Copilot at scale to drive AI-powered workplace transformation. The large-scale rollout is already enhancing productivity and automating workflows across the organisation, accelerating its digital transformation journey.

e& UAE and Microsoft launched the AI for Business Skilling Programme, an initiative designed to equip Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) with essential AI skills. This initiative underscores both companies’ commitment to fostering AI-led digital transformation and empowering SMBs with the knowledge and tools needed to thrive in today’s AI-driven business landscape.

In partnership with Kindred, the business continued to align innovation with sustainability through the “Save & Grow” initiative. Available via the e& UAE app, the programme combines eco-conscious shopping with financial incentives. Users earn discounts while supporting tree planting and sustainable practices across a network of over 9,000 online retailers.

In collaboration with Open Innovation AI, e& UAE has launched a dedicated AI Lab to develop localised AI solutions, accelerate innovation, and support the UAE’s goal of becoming a global AI leader by 2031. The lab will focus on sectors like government, healthcare, finance, and education, while also nurturing a skilled AI workforce.

Meanwhile, Smiles, e& UAE’s all-in-one lifestyle and rewards app, announced a new collaboration with Tencent Cloud – the powerhouse behind WeChat – which is set to elevate digital commerce capabilities in the UAE. Smiles also partnered with Amazon.ae to offer users up to six months of Amazon Prime at discounted rates, redeemable using Smiles points. These moves reinforce Smiles’ mission to deliver everyday value through strategic, customer-first innovation.

The General Authority of Islamic Affairs, Endowments and Zakat (AWQAF UAE) entered into a cooperation agreement with e& UAE. This partnership aims to develop a digital system that enhances the experiences of worshippers in mosques across the country. The initiative focuses on improving the management of mosque facilities and services, aligning with the UAE’s broader digital transformation goals.

This collaboration reflects the UAE’s commitment to integrating technology into religious and community services, ensuring that worshippers benefit from modern, efficient, and user-friendly environments.

e& UAE joined as a main partner of the Fathers’ Endowment campaign; an initiative launched during Ramadan under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. The campaign aims to establish a sustainable AED 1 billion endowment fund to provide healthcare for underprivileged patients, honouring fathers across the UAE.

As part of its contribution, e& leveraged its platforms to facilitate donations, including SMS campaigns and the Smiles app. Additionally, e& offered a selection of premium mobile numbers for auction at the Most Noble Number charity event held in Dubai.

e& life

e& life continued to shape digital experiences, pushing the boundaries of fintech, lifestyle, and entertainment through compelling innovation and AI-driven advancements.

Careem Technologies built strong momentum, with Gross Transaction Value (GTV) surging 160 per cent compared to Q1 2024. This robust growth, fueled by increased user engagement through Careem Plus, reinforced Careem’s essential role in the everyday lives of users, especially during high-demand periods like Ramadan.

e& money reached a major milestone, surpassing 1 million cards issued. Its trusted fintech platform continued to grow significantly, providing users with reliable, efficient, and secure financial interactions, driven by enhanced AI capabilities that streamlined remittance services and ensured smooth user experiences.

STARZ ON sustained powerful traction, surpassing 8 million installs and achieving impressive user engagement.

Now being rolled out across hospitals in the Middle East and Africa, Orva is transforming surgical workflows by improving efficiency, enhancing patient safety, and reducing operational costs. It’s a tangible example of how AI is reshaping the healthcare experience — not just for clinicians, but for patients too.

haifin, an e& enterprise company, has partnered with Vodacom Business, a unit of Vodacom South Africa, to launch Saif, a trade finance derisking platform. This platform is set to transform South Africa’s banking industry, marking a significant stride towards digital transformation and a more resilient banking ecosystem.

e& international

e& international strengthened its global position during Q1 2025 by scaling its infrastructure, investing in digital capabilities and expanding its reach into high-growth regions.

e& PPF Telecom Group strengthened its strategic collaboration with an agreement to acquire 100 per cent of Serbia Broadband (SBB), one of Central and Eastern Europe’s largest telecom and media operators.

e& played a key role in the successful landing of the Africa-1 submarine cable in Karachi, Pakistan, as part of a global consortium led by major telecom operators. Spanning 10,000 kilometres, the high-capacity cable links Pakistan with key international destinations, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Kenya and France. The project reflects e&’s ongoing commitment to strengthening digital infrastructure across the region and supporting Pakistan’s Digital Vision 2030.

LoveStudy AI Launches Innovative AI Flashcard Generator Platform for Enhanced Learning

SHERIDAN, Wyo., April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LoveStudy AI announces a significant update to its AI Flashcards platform, initially launched on April 21.

This new iteration enhances the system’s ability to transform how students study and retain information. The platform leverages advanced cognitive science and adaptive AI technology to help users learn more efficiently and improve academic performance.

New Platform Transforms Traditional Study Methods

The traditional approach to creating study materials often involves hours spent manually writing flashcards. LoveStudy AI’s platform allows users to generate over 100 customized flashcards in under one minute by uploading notes, textbooks, or PDF documents. The system automatically extracts key concepts and creates optimized study tools.

“We believe education should be accessible to everyone,” said Jeffrey Jou, CEO of LoveStudy AI. “Our platform enables students to learn more effectively without the barriers of complex tools or subscription fees. Every registered user receives free credits to start learning smarter immediately.”

Cross-Platform Accessibility

LoveStudy AI Flashcards offers seamless synchronization across devices, allowing users to study on phones, tablets, and computers. Progress automatically updates across all platforms, enabling productive learning during otherwise idle moments.

Science-Based Learning Approach

LoveStudy AI integrates three established cognitive science principles:

  1. AI-powered content analysis that automatically converts educational materials into properly formatted question-and-answer pairs, prioritizing high-yield content specific to users’ learning objectives.
  2. An adaptive spaced repetition algorithm that addresses the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve by scheduling reviews at scientifically determined intervals, with increased exposure to challenging concepts.
  3. Active recall methodology that requires genuine information retrieval rather than passive recognition—a technique demonstrated to improve exam performance significantly compared to conventional study methods.

Specialized Applications

For standardized test preparation (MCAT, Bar exam, SAT, etc.), students can upload past papers to identify high-frequency test questions. The platform’s “Quiz Mode” generates tests focusing on knowledge gaps, helping users concentrate on mastering difficult material.

Language learners benefit from comprehensive “Word → Sentence → Pronunciation” flashcards that enhance vocabulary acquisition and contextual understanding, aligning with established best practices in language education.

About LoveStudy AI

Founded in 2025 and headquartered in the United States, LoveStudy AI develops next-generation educational technology solutions. The company offers three core products: AI-powered flashcards (AIFlashcard), intelligent note-taking tools (AINotes), and adaptive assessment systems (AIQuiz). LoveStudy AI is committed to making effective learning accessible to students worldwide through innovative technology.

Henley & Partners Responds to European Court of Justice Ruling on Malta’s Citizenship Program

LONDON, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Henley & Partners is disappointed by the characterization of Malta’s citizenship program as an infringement of EU law or a “commercialization” of citizenship, as laid out in today’s highly politicalised judgment by the European Court of Justice (ECJ).

This ruling marks the conclusion of a case brought by the European Commission in March 2023. This case alleged that Malta’s citizenship by investment program violated the principle of sincere cooperation (a vague principle in EU law) and supposedly undermined the integrity of EU citizenship. However, the EU Commission, and now the ECJ’s reasoning, lacks a solid foundation in EU law, as many leading legal scholars and the Court’s own Advocate General have pointed out prior to today’s ruling.

Indeed, there is a stark contrast to the thoughtful and legally grounded opinion of the Advocate General, the ECJ’s lead judge, who concluded that the Maltese program did not infringe EU law and that the EU Commission had no case. The Court has now reversed course by a staggering 180 degrees and issued a judgement that appears politically motivated, as the reasoning provided by the court is tenuous at best. This undermines judicial consistency and confirms serious concerns about the increasing politicization of the EU’s legal institutions. It also undermines two of the most important values of the EU itself, democratic legitimisation and rule of law.

Dr. Christian H. Kälin, Chairman of Henley & Partners, says “the idea that investment migration undermines solidarity within the EU is not only unfounded but reflects a troubling misunderstanding of the socio-economic role these programs play. Malta’s framework exemplifies responsible nation-building — not opportunism. There are countless and major historic examples in Europe and elsewhere in the world. Rather than rejecting investment migration, the EU should focus on enhancing due diligence and harmonizing regulatory oversight to attract the right people to the Union who can contribute significantly and bring private investment, talent and entrepreneurship, which is urgently needed in Europe.”

He added that this judgment should not close the door to a more rational, fact-based conversation about the role of investment migration within the European project. Respecting national competences and fostering economic resilience — especially in smaller Member States — should be seen as part of a unified but diverse Europe.

SecAI Debuts at RSA 2025, Redefining Threat Investigation with AI

By fusing agentic AI and contextual threat intelligence, SecAI transforms investigation from a bottleneck into a force multiplier.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SecAI, an AI-enriched threat intelligence company, made its official debut today at RSA Conference 2025 in San Francisco, marking the company’s first public appearance on the global cybersecurity stage. At the event, the SecAI team is showcasing the latest version of its platform to security professionals from around the world.

The updated SecAI Investigator platform is purpose-built to solve one of cybersecurity’s most stubborn challenges: efficient threat investigation. It tackles this by combining two key innovations. First, it delivers curated, high-fidelity threat intelligence, which includes clear verdicts, multi-dimensional labels, and rich context like historical attack behavior through a unified interface. Second, it’s designed from the ground up with an AI-native architecture. The platform leverages advanced AI techniques not only for natural language interaction, but for deep information integration, contextual security reasoning, and suggest remediation options.

SecAI Booth At RSA Conference 2025, N-6570
SecAI Booth At RSA Conference 2025, N-6570

“We believe the future of cybersecurity lies in intelligent systems that can think and adapt like seasoned analysts,” said Chase Lee, Managing Director at SecAI. “Threat investigation has remained one of the most human-intensive parts of the SOC, but it doesn’t have to be. By combining deep threat intelligence with agentic AI, we’re not just accelerating investigations—we’re reshaping what’s possible in cyber defense. This is about giving security teams superhuman capabilities to meet the scale and speed of modern threats.”

In the security operations lifecycle—typically divided into detection, investigation, and response—automation has advanced detection and response dramatically over the past decade. But investigation remains a critical bottlenecks, often consuming over 70% of analysts’ time. SecAI believes that effective investigation depends on two essential capabilities: accurately gathering and organizing relevant information, and making sound, timely judgments. The main blockers today are:

  • A lack of timely, comprehensive threat intelligence
  • Ineffective methods for connecting data points to practical workflows

SecAI Investigator addresses both. By streamlining the investigation process, the platform enables analysts to rapidly evaluate the nature and relevance of IPs, domains, and threat actors, dive deep into logs and alerts, and make faster, more confident decisions.

Looking ahead, SecAI plans to roll out API and threat intelligence feed integrations, allowing customers to embed SecAI’s contextual threat intelligence directly into their existing systems and workflows. This will enable real-time enrichment, faster responses, and more scalable intelligence-driven operations across teams.
