Friedberg, Germany, Oct 29, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Today, Dr. Falk Pharma GmbH announces the successful acquisition of Kynos Therapeutics Ltd., a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on the development of novel treatments for patients suffering from acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. The company was founded as a spin-out of the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, together with lead investor Epidarex Capital, a leading early-stage transatlantic venture fund, along with IP Group, and Scottish Enterprise. Effective immediately, Kynos Therapeutics will be integrated into the Falk Group.Dr. Falk PharmaKynos Therapeutics' lead investigational asset is KNS366, a highly potent and selective first-in-class inhibitor of the enzyme kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO). In a Phase I clinical trial, KNS366 was shown to be safe and well-tolerated at multiple doses. The compound also led to a dose-dependent inhibition of the enzyme KMO and modulation of its downstream metabolites.Dr. Falk Pharma is excited about the addition of KNS366 to its R&D pipeline and will further explore the potential of KNS366 in future clinical trials, initially focusing on acute pancreatitis. This new asset will enhance Dr. Falk Pharma´s expansion into rare digestive and metabolic diseases and conditions.About KNS366Kynos Therapeutics' lead investigational asset KNS366 selectively inhibits the enzyme kynurenine 3-monooxygenase (KMO). KMO is a key enzyme in the tryptophan metabolic pathway and has also been shown to play an important role in modulating immune processes. By inhibiting KMO activity, KNS366 interferes with inflammation and other immune system pathologies by lowering levels of its downstream metabolite - 3- hydroxykynurenine (3HK) - high levels of which have been linked to tissue damage and dysregulation of the immune system during inflammation. Inflammatory diseases including acute pancreatitis trigger an exacerbated, systemic pro-inflammatory response, making KMO inhibitors a promising next-generation treatment option for disorders characterized by severe inflammation.About acute pancreatitisAcute pancreatitis is a sudden inflammation of the pancreas that can be triggered by a number of factors. In its severe form, this acute inflammation can cascade to a reaction in the entire body over several days to weeks that can result in systemic inflammation, organ failure, and death. Accordingly, acute pancreatitis requires immediate medical intervention to manage patients' symptoms and prevent worsening of their condition, often necessitating prolonged hospitalization. Currently, acute pancreatitis occurs in about 240,000 people in Europe and 300,000 people in the United States each year, with 1 in 5 acute pancreatitis patients requiring intensive care. To date, there are no proven or approved treatment options to prevent organ failure and death resulting from severe acute pancreatitis, meaning there is an urgent need for effective treatments.About partnering with Dr. Falk PharmaDr. Falk Pharma engages in a variety of collaboration and partnership models to develop and deliver innovative treatment concepts with great potential. These treatments can be based on any type of pharmacological approach, from small molecules to biologics to novel drug delivery technologies.

HONG KONG, Oct 29, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The sixteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity (COP16) opened in Colombia on October 21 for a 12-day session. During a side event, the "Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework: Potential OECM Cases in China," supported by Huatai Securities (Stock Code: 601688.SH, 6886.HK, HTSC.L), was presented to showcase China's diverse approaches to balancing ecological protection with socioeconomic development. On October 25 (local time), Huatai Securities, together with the Shan Shui Foundation, announced the launch of China's first OECMs special fund at COP16. The fund will provide practical and sustained support to qualified potential OECM cases, aiming to accelerate the mainstreaming of biodiversity conservation among diverse stakeholders. The Shanghai Stock Exchange Foundation will also provide charitable support for this initiative.The launch of the OECMs special fund was attended by Jillian Campbell, Representative of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity Secretariat; Liu Ning, Deputy Director General of the Department of Nature and Ecology Conservation of China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment; James Hardcastle, Head of the Protected and Conserved Areas Team at the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN); and Lu Zhi, Boya Distinguished Professor at Peking University and Board Member of Shan Shui Foundation.In 2022, as the COP15 presidency, China played a key role in promoting the ambitious yet practical "Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework." This framework introduced the "30x30" target, which aims to protect at least 30% of the world's terrestrial, inland waters, coastal, and marine areas by 2030. Since officially designated protected areas alone cannot achieve this target, other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) with broad social participation are widely recognized as a new conservation tool that can significantly increase conservation coverage and help achieve the 30x30 target.With support from the Department of Nature and Ecology Conservation of China’s Ministry of Ecology and Environment and funding from Huatai Securities, the China Environmental Protection Foundation, Huatai Foundation, and Shan Shui Conservation Center jointly launched an initiative to collect potential OECM cases in China. This initiative aims to gather, synthesize, and showcase exemplary practices and experiences of potential OECMs in China. Through this initiative, we hope to provide a basis and reference for developing localized OECM criteria and guidelines, thereby facilitating the pathways for OECMs in China and promoting the achievement of the 30x30 target.The initiative received 90 applications from a diverse range of stakeholders, including social organizations, businesses, universities, and farmers' cooperatives. These applications covered various ecosystems such as forests, wetlands, oceans, urban areas, and farmlands, totaling 1,290 km². They contributed to the conservation of endangered species like the Siberian tiger, giant panda, Yunnan golden snub-nosed monkey, Chinese pangolin, Baer's pochard, Chinese immaculate treefrog, Chinese horseshoe crab, and others.Following a rigorous process that included desktop review, expert evaluation, field investigations, and results disclosure, 12 cases, including the Peking University Campus Conservation Area, were selected as "Outstanding Potential OECMs." Additionally, 34 cases, including Nanjing Olympic Center's near-natural green space, were identified as "Potential OECMs." These efforts demonstrate the diverse contributions of Chinese society in the process of China further exercising leadership in the field of global biodiversity governance.At COP16's side event, "Exploring Voluntary Commitments by Non-state Actors in Advancing Other Effective Area-based Conservation Measures (OECMs): Insights from China and International Perspectives", Huatai Securities and the Shan Shui Foundation jointly launched China's first OECMs special fund – the Non-state Actor OECMs Small Grants. Building on six years of experience with the "One Yangtze River" ecological and environmental protection public welfare project, Huatai Securities will focus on the Yangtze River Basin, selecting projects from potential OECM cases with practical needs and long-term potential to provide small grants and professional capacity building through the fund.Jillian Campbell, Representative of the UN Convention on Biological Diversity Secretariat, highlighted the crucial role of OECMs in achieving the 30x30 targets, emphasizing the need to focus on management effectiveness, equitable governance, and connectivity in future implementations. Liu Ning, Deputy Director General of the Department of Nature and Ecology Conservation of China's Ministry of Ecology and Environment, noted that China's National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (2023-2030) emphasizes innovating OECMs, exploring diverse governance models, and supporting various forms of in-situ conservation of biodiversity from all sectors of society. He expressed his hope that Chinese financial institutions, exemplified by Huatai Securities, will collaborate with professional organizations to conduct more exemplary explorations.Launched in 2018, Huatai Securities' "One Yangtze River" initiative promotes biodiversity mainstreaming by supporting community conservation efforts, providing youth ecological education, and fostering the growth of young professionals in sustainable development. By applying ESG principles, it encourages listed companies and financial institutions to participate in conservation. Huatai will leverage potential OECM case studies and the OECMs special fund to support diverse stakeholders' long-term biodiversity conservation efforts and innovative pilot projects, fostering a multi-stakeholder action system and promoting a collective commitment to building a beautiful China.About Huatai SecuritiesEstablished in 1991, Huatai Securities Co., Ltd.

Wintermar’s 9M2024 Net operating profit doubled to US$11.8million (+127.1% YOY) from US$5.2 million in 9M2023, contributed by higher charter rates in DP vessels and additional vessels commencing operations, while Net Attributable Profit which includes gains from vessel sales jumped to US$19.7million for 9M2024 compared to US$2.8million in 9M2023.Owned Vessel DivisionIn the Owned Vessel segment, Revenues jumped by 36.7% YOY to US$45.0 million for 9M2024, up from US$33.0 million in 9M2023. This growth was fueled by the continued rise in OSV charter rates particularly in the higher tier segment. Gross Profit from Owned Vessels rose by 124.7% YOY to US$15.5 million in 9M2024, compared to US$6.9 million in the same period last year with average charter rates 23.1% higher in 9M2024 compared to 9M2023 while vessel utilization improved slightly from 65% in 9M2023 to 67% in 9M2024.On a Quarterly basis, Owned Vessel Revenue increased by 35.1% YOY from US$13.2million in 2Q2024 to US$17.8million in 3Q2024. This strong growth was primarily driven by the deployment of two Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs) on long-term contracts at market rates after coming off a lower priced contract in April 2024, and a reactivated PSV coming into operation in August. Gross Profit increased by an impressive 81.8% QOQ, reaching US$7.5 million in 3Q2024, compared to US$4.1 million in 2Q2024, highlighting the significant widening in Owned Vessel gross margin to 41.9% in 3Q2024 from 31.1% in 2Q2024.Chartering Division and Other ServicesThe Chartering Division also enjoyed an increase Gross Profit by 20.9% YOY, despite a 11.2% YOY decline in revenue, from US$12.9 million in 9M2023 to US$11.4 million in 9M2024.Revenue from Other Services declined by 6.5% YOY, from US$5.4 million in 9M2023 to US$5.0 million in 9M2024.

Depreciation costs grew by 8.2% YOY reaching US$10.1 million, due to the addition of vessels to the fleet. Crewing Expenses rose by 12.7% to US$7.6 million, due to the higher salaries and allowances required for Dynamic Positioning (DP) vessels and more vessels operating outside Indonesia.For 9M2024, Maintenance Costs increased by 39.8% YOY, to US$5.9 million, while fuel bunker costs increased by 16.8% YOY, totaling US$2.2 million. These cost increases were driven by major docking activities for certain vessels and the preparation of higher-tier vessels for long-term contracts.Indirect Expenses and Operating ProfitTotal Indirect Expenses increased by 33.1% YOY, rising from US$4.9 million in 9M2023 to US$6.6 million. The largest contributor to this increase came from salaries (+31.6% YOY to US$4.7million) due to a growing workforce in line with business expansion and bonuses paid in 2Q2024 while employee benefits were normalized in 2024 after an adjustment in 2023.Marketing expenses increased by 275% YOY from US$0.09 million in 9M2023 to US$0.4 million in 9M2024, due to marketing fees to support the Company’s international growth.Despite these cost increases, Wintermar successfully improved operational performance, reflected in a 127.1% YOY jump in operating profit, which grew from US$5.2 million in 9M2023 to US$11.8 million in 9M2024.Other Income, Expenses and Net Attributable ProfitInterest Expenses continued to fall from US$0.9 million in 9M2023 to US$0.8 million in 9M2024, reflecting a -19.1% YOY decline as outstanding bank debt decreased. The Company is now cash positive, leading to a significant increase in interest income from US$0.03 million in 9M2023 to US$0.3 million in 9M2024. This improvement in cash flow was driven by better operational performance and substantial gains from the sale of vessels.Equity in net earnings of associates turned around with a gain of US$2.1 million in 9M2024 compared to a loss of US$0.3 million in 9M2024, as operational performance from our associated companies also benefited from the industry upturn.The sale of vessels resulted in a substantial gain of US$17.4 million from the disposal of fixed assets in 1H2024, effectively crystalizing the monetary value of the fleet. This cash inflow provided management with the opportunity to reinvest in similar but younger vessels. In August 2024, the Company took delivery of a Platform Supply Vessel built in 2022, which is expected to be operationally ready by early December 2024. Non controlling interest was significantly higher at US$7.5million compared to only US$0.03million in 9M2023 to account for the minority share of earnings from the PSV business which is 51% controlled by Wintermar.Net Attributable Profit for 9M2024 totaled US$19.7million, a six fold increase (+605.2%YOY) from US$2.8million in 9M2023, due to a combination of higher gross profit from a strong performance in the core business as well as the gain from sale of vessels.The group's EBITDA increased by 50.8% YOY for 9M2024, reaching US$22.1 million.Industry OutlookThe world is navigating turbulent times, with escalating conflicts in the Middle East and Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine affecting some of the world’s most important oil producing countries. Geopolitical uncertainty has exposed the underlying vulnerabilities of the global energy system, which has contributed to a new investment cycle in upstream oil and gas as governments seek to ensure energy security.The current economic outlook points to global oil demand remaining resilient. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global demand for oil is expected stay above 100 million barrels per day (mb/d) through 2050. This sustained demand is driven by industrial uses, heavy-duty transportation, and petrochemical needs. The transition to renewable energy is reshaping consumption patterns, but oil and natural gas will continue to play a crucial role in meeting global energy needs.Southeast Asia remains heavily reliant on energy imports, especially oil and natural gas, to meet its growing demand. According to the IEA's World Energy Outlook, Southeast Asia is projected to become a net importer of natural gas by 2030, while China and India are also seeing a significant rise in their reliance on imported energy. China's oil imports are expected to surpass 80% by 2050, increasing its vulnerability to global supply disruptions.The Indonesian government has introduced a new gross split scheme aimed at attracting upstream investments by simplifying contractual terms and providing more favorable conditions for oil and gas contractors. This welcome move demonstrates the political will to ramp up upstream oil and gas investments in Indonesia, needed to mitigate natural production declines and the widening oil trade deficit in recent years.Business ProspectsWintermar continues to strategically strengthen its financial position and revitalize its fleet through targeted investments. As of the first nine months of 2024, the Company has invested in USS$38.8 million in fleet expansion to position its fleet in anticipation of future demand. This includes an Accommodation Work Barge (AWB), a 2022 built Platform Supply Vessel (PSV), and three newly constructed heavy load barges scheduled for delivery by the end of the year. These investments not only modernize Wintermar’s fleet but also align it with expected OSV demand as early-stage offshore drilling and exploration projects transition into the construction and production phases.These acquisitions have been financed through a combination of internal cash flow, bank loans and the sale of several low-yielding vessels. The success in securing new loans has demonstrated support from banks and enables the Company to optimize the capital structure.Contracts on hand as at end September 2024 amounted to US$71.4 million.Dividend paymentBased on the strong results in the first 9 months of 2024, the Directors have declared the payment of an interim dividend of Rp8 per share, totaling Rp34.92billion or US$2.25million.

As a critical partner of CR Beer, China Entercom has provided strong support in intelligent cloud network security services, laying a solid digital foundation for us to realize our green vision of low-carbon operations. The collaboration between the two parties has achieved technical complementarity and integration, sparking deep synergies across business models, market strategies and different aspects.”Mr. Brook Wong, Chief Executive Officer of CITIC Telecom CPC and President of China Entercom, said, “It is a great pleasure and honor to work with CR Beer on digital transformation, which is both a leading, high-quality, all-rounded alcoholic beverage company and a very important corporate client. I believe that this award is undoubtedly a high recognition for the collaborative projects between the two parties, and it is also a strong affirmation of our motto “Innovation Never Stops” and dedication in the ICT industry for more than two decades. Our next step will be riding on the wave of the digital economy, while pursuing innovation in digital intelligence, boosting high-quality development in ‘AI+ Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions, and accelerating the advancement of the ICT industry. We are committed to making technology the ultimate business enabler, promoting high-quality development with innovation and intelligence.”From the Present to the Future: China Entercom Customizes a Future-Proof “All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security” Platform for CR Beer to Realize Digital IntelligenceHeadquartered in Beijing, CR Beer is one of the significant members of China Resources Group in terms of the consumer sector, and also a pioneer with a history spanning over 30 years in the domestic alcoholic beverage industry. In view of aggregate sales, CR Beer has been top-ranked in the Chinese beer market since 2006, however, the market competition has become fiercer with the change in market demands and consumption needs, notably the trends of premiumization and diversification among the leading enterprises in the past few years. CR Beer realized digitization and intelligentization are the keys to capture the market, so it implemented the “3+3+3” corporate development strategy for premiumization in 2017, moved towards technology productization in 2020, and recently launched a dual empowerment model of “Beer and Baijiu”.To achieve digital transformation, CR Beer needs to generate higher values from technologies and foster business growth by addressing the preexisting challenges. More importantly, it needs a reliable partner with technological expertise, tailor-made solutions, exceptional service capabilities and global resources to flexibly support its future businesses and advance the three critical objectives: (1) enhance network continuity and scalability, (2) improve network efficiency, and (3) reinforce the security protection of the entire digital infrastructure.“Having considered carefully and conducted rigorous technical tests, CR Beer decided to join hands with China Entercom. With its full-cycle support from customization, deployment and installation, implementation to operation and maintenance, we adopted its innovative suite of ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions (MPLS + SD-WAN + Security + SASE + Private Cloud). With this solution as a solid and secure foundation for digital transformation, CR Beer has experienced a seamless and highly efficient transformation journey, which is in line with the ultimate goals of our partnership,” said Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.IDC commented on “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network” project, said: “This project has excelled and outcompeted others in network optimization, service delivery, technology innovation and low-carbon development. Additionally, the one-stop service provided by China Entercom not only streamlines the network management, but also ensures network stability and security with its round-the-clock monitoring function. With the integration of multiple innovative technologies, the customized ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions have addressed the digital transformation requirements of CR Beer. In particular, deploying the private cloud in the low-carbon data center is apparently a proactive approach to environmental protection and low-carbon operation, providing an excellent paradigm of both economic benefits and social responsibility commitments, setting a benchmark for the industry.”Rooted in China, Connecting Globally: China Entercom as the long-term partner of CR Beer’s Globalization StrategyCR Beer is committed to fulfilling its responsibility as a subsidiary of China Resources Group, actively promoting the “Belt and Road” Initiative and global development. To connect globally, the company first established a global strategic partnership with Heineken Group in 2019 under the “Going Global” policy, making China the second largest market for Heineken. By leveraging the global resources of China Entercom and its parent company CITIC Telecom CPC, the next step of CR Beer is to promote a comprehensive digital transformation with network improvement as the basis, realizing automated workflow and intelligent decision support. Meanwhile, the company is looking forward to boosting operational efficiency and responsiveness to drive rapid business growth and expand its market presence along the “Belt and Road”, in Southeast Asia, Europe and the global market.Mr. Henry Ko, General Manager of Enterprise Sales, China Entercom, said, “The cooperation between China Entercom and CR Beer started at the initial stage of its digital transformation journey. As an industry leader, CR Beer has more heightened requirements of digital transformation — cost reduction, higher efficiency, and most importantly, holistically solving current pain points and challenges for a better future. And this is where our strengths lie. Having worked with a variety of industries for more than 20 years, China Entercom is well aware that forward-looking technologies and services offered by solution providers are the keys to maximizing clients’ IT investment efficiency.”“There are some prerequisites for new technology applications to attain cost reduction and efficiency enhancement during digital transformation. The first is to select the right technologies and solutions, and the second is to carry out customized implementation and deployment for better business development. In other words, choosing the right partner matters. It is a great pleasure to be the right partner for CR Beer, and to be working together since the very beginning of its digital transformation, which it has eventually achieved higher efficiency with technologies,” continued Mr. Ko.Beer with ICT Innovations: CR Beer Adds a Hint of New Technology FlavorThe in-depth cooperation between CR Beer and China Entercom demonstrates the convergence of innovative ICT technologies with the traditional alcoholic beverage industry, resembling a brewer blending liquors delicately. The next stage of cooperation is reportedly in the direction of going globally, AI+ and SOC-as-a-Service (SOCaaS).“Under the leadership of Mr. Guo Hua, Chief Digital Officer of CR Beer, the information technology team is actively promoted ‘Five Transformations, Three Concentrations, One Core, and Four Platforms as the transformation framework to comprehensively promote the implementation of the digital strategy, committed to aligning with top international standards. As we strongly support the digitalization of our business systems, we consistently enhance infrastructure development and information security. In parallel, we are proactively delving into the implementation of cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, aiming to propel our digital transformation efforts. Our goal is to establish a globally competitive IT brand and highlight the distinctive value of CR Beer and its IT division through recognition at the IDC awards. We anticipate our continued collaboration with China Entercom, strategically mapping out our long-term partnership to achieve a more robust digital transformation and sustainable development,” concluded Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.References[1]Source: CR Beer[2]https://www.jnexpert.com/article/detail?id=4040About IDC Future Enterprise Awards ChinaIn its ninth year, the IDC Future Enterprise Awards recognize remarkable institutions, organizations and/or individuals that have showcased critical efforts and breakthroughs in digital transformation.
