Predictive Oncology Issues Letter to Shareholders
NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI), a knowledge-driven company focused on applying artificial intelligence (“AI”) to personalized medicine and drug discovery, today issued a letter to shareholders discussing the Company’s recent accomplishments and voting recommendations from its Board of Directors for two proposals that are scheduled for shareholder vote on September 3, 2020.
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
Predictive Oncology is committed to executing our strategic vision to develop and commercialize an offering that will enable us to support the improvement in healthcare outcomes for oncology patients and increase value for our shareholders. Over the last six months we have been diligently assembling a portfolio of assets and aligning our capital and governance structures to help us achieve this vision.
At our annual meeting on September 3, 2020, we are asking you to approve two important compensation-related proposals – repricing stock options for executives and key employees (but excluding director options), and an increased share reserve for the stock incentive plan. Management and the Board considered these proposals carefully before recommending them for your approval, and we need your vote FOR these proposals. Approval is critical as we expand upon our considerable recent business accomplishments and enhance shareholder value by attracting and retaining talented management.
Recent Accomplishments
- Completed acquisition of Quantitative Medicine. In July we completed our acquisition of QM, a biomedical analytics and computational biology company. This acquisition equips us to further leverage our unique database of drug-response and genomics profiles that our subsidiary, Helomics, has gathered from more than 150,000 cancer cases over more than 10 years of clinical testing. By integrating QM’s proven machine learning platform, CoRE, with our proprietary database of drug response and genomics profiles we believe we can revolutionize the role of our AI-driven predictive models in the discovery and development of new anti-cancers and will be able to more quickly understand how specific types of tumors react to cancer drug therapies. We expect to offer this new capability to our pharmaceutical company customers in revenue generating projects later this year.
- Completed acquisition of Soluble and BioDtech. In June we completed our acquisition of Soluble Therapeutics and BioDtech, thereby expanding our precision medicine revenue and monetization prospects in a meaningful way. The Soluble Therapeutics assets increase our capabilities to predict and provide the best formulation with the highest concentration and the most stable solution for protein and peptide-based drugs in providing services to the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. Our acquisition of BioDtech gives us ownership of BioDtech’s successfully developed test used to ‘unmask’ endotoxins, which allows a monitoring physician to perhaps change the strategy of treatment or treat the patient with antibiotics. These acquisitions expand our opportunities within precision medicine.
- First commercial sale of novel ovarian cancer media. In the second quarter our TumorGenesis business achieved a major milestone with the first order of our unique ovarian cancer cell culture media for cancer cells collected from patient derived samples (PDx) to a top-rated medical university in New England. This new media allows researchers around the world to isolate and then culture ovarian cancer cell types and culture them reproducibly to find new targets for treatment, diagnostics or other studies on the close interrelationship of ovarian cancer tumor populations and how they are able to fool a patient’s immune system.
- Helomics nearing commercialization of revenue-generating services. Helomics, our flagship precision medicine and AI division, continues its strong progress on CancerQuest2020, its collaborative project with UPMC Magee Women’s Hospital to build an AI-driven predictive model of ovarian cancer. In addition, there is continued progress with Genomics England in the UK to build an AI model or ovarian cancer to be used for clinical decision support for patients. We expect completion of the models in late Q3 and are pursuing in parallel commercial discussions to use these ovarian cancer AI-models in revenue generating projects with Pharmaceutical companies in Q4 and Q1-2021. Furthermore, we expect the recent acquisition of and integration of Quantitative Medicine’s CoRE platform to drive additional revenue generating projects in the same period. Helomics clinical testing for ovarian cancer has continued throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and we are continuing outreach efforts to clinicians to drive more testing revenue.
- Strengthened balance sheet with capital raise, cash from warrants and restructuring of debt. During the second quarter we raised $4.4 million in aggregate gross proceeds through a registered direct offering and the exercise of existing warrants. In addition, I personally reinforced my commitment to our mission when I exchanged $2.1 million of Predictive Oncology notes that I held for additional common stock in the company. Through these actions, we significantly strengthened and simplified our balance sheet and created additional runway to execute our vision.
- Restructured board of directors with appointment of three new directors. In July, we reconstituted our board of directors with the appointment of Dr. Nancy Chung-Welch, Ph.D., Mr. Charles L. Nuzum, CPA and Mr. Greg St. Clair. Each of these members brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and thought leadership that are highly valuable. Collectively, these appointments significantly elevate our depth in the areas of new business development, executive leadership and financial acumen and demonstrate our commitment to aligning our board’s expertise with our strategic objectives to drive increased value for our shareholders.
Annual Meeting Proposals
At our Annual Meeting on September 3, 2020 you are being asked to approve a number of proposals that are described in our proxy statement that we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2020 and have mailed to our stockholders. Two of the proposals are vital to retaining and attracting top talent aligned with executing our corporate strategy such that we can scale and grow our business and achieve profitability.
Proposal No. 3: Approval of Repricing Stock Options Held By Officers and Employees.
The Board has determined that adverse changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock since the Eligible Options were granted could materially interfere with the Company’s efforts to retain the service of its existing officers and employees. In Proposal No. 3, Predictive is seeking approval of a one-time repricing of all stock options outstanding under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2012 Stock Incentive Plan held by current officers or employees of the Company which have an exercise price higher than $1.54 per share, but excluding stock options granted for service on the Board of Directors. More specifically, the proposal requests stockholder approval to change the exercise price of eligible options to $1.54 per share, equal to the closing sale price of the common stock on July 1, 2020, the day before the Board approved the repricing.
The Board recommends the option repricing to encourage an increasing alignment of their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders and their stake in the long-term performance and success of the Company. When the market price for the Company’s common stock is significantly below the applicable exercise price of an option (often referred to as “underwater” or “out-of-the-money”), for example, the Board believes that the option holder is not likely to exercise that option and will not have the desired incentive that the option was intended to provide.
Please note:
- When the Board approved the repricing, it excluded the stock options that were granted to the directors for their service.
- In considering the repricing of my stock options that I hold as CEO, the Board noted that I received most of those option in lieu of cash salary for nearly two years, which I was willing to accept to accommodate the cash needs of the Company.
Proposal No. 4: Increase in Reserve in Stock Incentive Plan. The Company does not possess enough options in its stock incentive option plan to incentivize valued employees currently working hard to bring success to Predictive and align their incentives with our shareholders. It is also critical to have a large enough share reserve under the plan to attract prospective employees to our organization. In order to meet its business and growth objectives, the company will need to hire talented additional management and operating personnel.
In Proposal No. 4, Predictive is requesting stockholder approval to increase the share reserve by 750,000 shares, to a total of 1,750,000 shares. Currently, options to purchase 830,488 shares of common stock are subject to outstanding stock options under the Restated Plan. In determining the amount of the increase in the Restated Plan, the Predictive Board carefully considered its intention to grant further equity awards to current and future executive officers and key employees and directors. The Restated Plan also eliminates certain limitations on individual awards that are no longer required under applicable tax laws.
The Board believes that approval of Proposal No. 4 is in the best interests of Predictive and its stockholders because the availability of an adequate number of shares reserved for issuance is important in attracting, retaining and motivating employees, consultants and directors in order to achieve the company’s long-term growth and profitability objectives.
We believe that adopting these measures will give Predictive the ability to attract and retain the high-quality professionals we need to achieve our strategic vision and create value for shareholders. Accordingly, management is asking shareholders to approve the proposal to reprice options (Proposal 3) and approve the proposal to amend and restate the company’s 2012 stock incentive plan (Proposal 4).
We remain open and available to speak with any of our fellow shareholders as you make your decisions and, again, thank you for your support.

Lithium Miners Strategize for Long-Term Gains as Market Recovers
USA News Group Commentary
Issued on behalf of Lithium South Development Corporation
VANCOUVER, BC, May 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — USA News Group – Despite what appears to be a supply glut currently in the global lithium market, already there are signs of a lithium rebound on the horizon. According to Statista, global lithium demand is projected to grow through next year, while Fastmarkets predicts lithium supply will increase 30% in 2024. Fastmarkets also expects that by 2030, US lithium demand alone will grow by nearly 500%. Looking ahead, lithium miners continue to move their chess pieces onto the board with anticipation of long-term rewards, including the work of Lithium South Development Corporation (TSXV:LIS) (OTC:LISMF), Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (SQM) (NYSE:SQM), Piedmont Lithium Inc. (NASDAQ:PLL), Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE:LAC) (TSX:LAC), and Rio Tinto Group (NYSE:RIO).
Lithium South Development Corporation (TSXV:LIS) (OTC:LISMF) recently filed a new Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), which provides support for the company to proceed with development plans for a 15,600 tonnes per year lithium carbonate plant. As per the PEA, the project’s financial model shows a Net Present Value (NPV) after tax of US$938 million, and an after-tax Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 31.6%, with a 2.5-year payback.
“We are very pleased to have achieved this important milestone for the HMN Li Project,” said Adrian F.C. Hobkirk, Founder, President and CEO of Lithium South. “The robust economics and room for expansion indicate a promising future for Lithium South.”
The HMN Li project is planned to use an extraction and recovery process based on conventional solar evaporation of the well brine. Magnesium and other contaminants will be removed using industry standard proven methods including liming. The concentrated lithium solution will then be processed into lithium carbonate technical grade.
The PEA announcement came just weeks after the company announced the expansion of its ongoing production well drill program. A 400 meter deep pumping well has been completed at the Alba Sabrina claim block, which at 2,089 hectares is the project’s largest. Recent efforts at the well successfully cleared out sediments, leading to the flow of clear brine with strong artesian characteristics, suggesting potential for enhanced brine extraction rates. To maximize these benefits, Lithium South has contracted a significantly larger 80-kilowatt pump, and is now completing a long term pump test. Based on results, further wells are planned for Alba Sabrina and the southern claim blocks at Viamonte and Norma Edith.
“These developments on the Alba Sabrina claim block could potentially enhance our operational capacity,” said Hobkirk. “The completion of this pumping test, anticipated by the end of May, will provide critical technical insight into the capacity potential of this area of the salar.”
Earlier in the year, Lithium South together with the Korean conglomerate POSCO, entered into a cooperative development agreement on the HMN Li Project, representing a crucial step forward in advancing towards lithium production. Previously, towards the end of 2023, Lithium South also released an updated NI 43-101 technical report for its premier HMN Li asset, which demonstrated a significant 175% boost in its lithium resource, amounting to over 1.58 million tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE).
According to Chile’s Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (SQM) (NYSE:SQM), there will be steady lithium prices in the coming months, despite the supply glut. In particular, SQM is optimistic for the second half of the year, which the company predicts will entail higher sales volumes.
“As we enter into 2024, we anticipate another robust year of growth in lithium market, with global demand increasing by at least 20%, supported by electric vehicle sales growth globally and increasing demand for battery materials,” said Ricardo Ramos, CEO of SQM. “However, the excess in lithium and battery materials capacity seen during last year is expected to continue during this year, keeping pressure on lithium market prices. We expect our average lithium prices to remain relatively stable throughout the year and our sales volumes to increase slightly during this year, subject to market conditions and any changes in supply-demand balance.”
This optimism was shared by Keith Phillips, CEO of Piedmont Lithium Inc. (NASDAQ:PLL) in an interview with Yahoo! Finance Live.
“[When it comes to mining] low prices are the cure for low prices,” said Phillips, adding that “it’s a matter of time” that prices will rebound. How fast that rebound occurs is still to be determined, however, Piedmont isn’t slowing its march.
Just recently, Piedmont received its state mining permit from the state of North Carolina, where the company owns 3,600 acres, from which it plans to mine spodumene from at least half of the area. Piedmont will then convert the material to lithium hydroxide, which is key to the manufacturing of EV batteries.
“We look forward to continued engagement with the local community and the Gaston County Board of Commissioners,” said Phillips. “We have had extensive and ongoing dialogue with possible funding sources for Carolina Lithium.”
Domestically sourced lithium is projected to become even more desirable, especially with US government incentives underway. Lithium Americas Corp. (NYSE:LAC) (TSX:LAC) recently secured a record $2.26 billion loan from the US Department of Energy to build its Thacker Pass lithium project in Nevada.
Construction began at the site located just south of the Nevada-Oregon border in March 2023, following a lengthy and intricate legal victory over conservationists, ranchers, and Indigenous groups. Lithium Americas anticipates finalizing securing a loan later this year, pending the completion of final environmental assessments. Once the financing is in place, the company aims to commence substantial construction activities, a project slated to last three years. The initial phase of the mine is projected to yield 40,000 metric tons of battery-grade lithium carbonate annually, sufficient to supply up to 800,000 electric vehicles.
“Our team has been focused on refining the development plan and de-risking construction execution of Phase 1 for Thacker Pass,” said Jonathan Evans, President and CEO of Lithium Americas. “We have de-risked execution by advancing detailed engineering and project planning. To date, we have completed all the early-works and infrastructure required for major construction, including excavating the processing plant areas.”
Looking at multiple international lithium projects, mining giant Rio Tinto Group (NYSE:RIO) has already expressed the company remains bullish on lithium despite not currently seeking any big acquisitions. Back in March, Rio Tinto committed to spending $350 million on its Rincon lithium project in Argentina, set to commence production by the end of the year.
This comes just months after the President of Serbia expressed interest to hold further talks with Rio Tinto regarding its Jadar lithium project, after the country revoked licenses on the $2.4 billion asset in 2022. If brought to completion, the project could supply 90% of Europe’s current lithium needs, and make Rio Tinto a leading lithium producer. As well, Rio Tinto held talks with the country of Rwanda back in January for the exploration and mining of lithium in the East African nation.
“[Rio Tinto is] “excited to be partnering with the government of Rwanda, applying our global experience to accelerate the search for primary lithium deposits in Rwanda’s Western Province,” said Lawrence Dechambenoit, global head of external affairs at Rio Tinto. The move could further unlock the potential of another country’s mining sector, if successful.
