SHELTON, CONNECTICUT / ACCESS Newswire / October 15, 2025 / NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE American:NNVC) (the “Company”), reports that an analyst research report was published on the Company that explains its dual-track, rapid clinical development strategy for NV-387, going after MPox and also after all respiratory viral infections, that include Influenzas, Coronaviruses, RSV among others. The analyst research report was published by proactive investors news (https://www.proactiveinvestors.com/companies/news/1080303/nanoviricides-dual-track-clinical-development-during-2026-1080303.html/long).

The analyst research report summarizes:

“Nanoviricides (NNVC), a US company, targets the unmet medical need for an effective, broad- spectrum acute oral antiviral therapy with NV-387. NNVC’s nano-polymer, micelle technology directly binds and destroys virus particles in the blood preventing them entering and infecting cells; in effect a highly selective, ruthless (but safe) nanomachine.

NNVC is now pursuing a dual track strategy for clinical development. The first trial will be against MPox virus, a relative of smallpox. The second is in respiratory viral diseases. NV’s lead molecule NV-387 has already completed a Phase 1 study in 2023 showing safety and tolerability.

The immediate study, which could start by late CY25 or early in CY26, is for MPox. MPox is an endemic virus related to smallpox so has biodefense applications. Ethics approval for an NV- 387 Phase 2 trial in Congo has already been gained; the next stage is a formal Phase 2 Clinical Trial Application (CTA). A successful African trial could lead to possible development funding from the US biodefense agency (BARDA).

The second planned study uses mostly the same CTA as the MPox study but will target respiratory viral diseases. An adaptive “basket-type” trial in India will gather data on NV-387 efficacy against flu, RSV and coronaviruses. This might start in winter 2026 but a later start is possible. This could lead to focused US trials, perhaps from 2027. Management notes independent estimates of a US$2.6 bln opportunity in RSV and US$4.6 bln in influenza.”

Additional details can be found in the analyst research report.

About NanoViricides

NanoViricides, Inc. (the “Company”) (www.nanoviricides.com) is a clinical stage company that is creating special purpose nanomaterials for antiviral therapy. The Company’s novel nanoviricide™ class of drug candidates and the nanoviricide™ technology are based on intellectual property, technology and proprietary know-how of TheraCour Pharma, Inc. The Company has a Memorandum of Understanding with TheraCour for the development of drugs based on these technologies for all antiviral infections. The MoU does not include cancer and similar diseases that may have viral origin but require different kinds of treatments.

The Company has obtained broad, exclusive, sub-licensable, field licenses to drugs developed in several licensed fields from TheraCour Pharma, Inc. The Company’s business model is based on licensing technology from TheraCour Pharma Inc. for specific application verticals of specific viruses, as established at its foundation in 2005.

Our lead drug candidate is NV-387, a broad-spectrum antiviral drug that we plan to develop as a treatment of RSV, COVID, Long COVID, Influenza, and other respiratory viral infections, as well as MPOX/Smallpox infections. Our other advanced drug candidate is NV-HHV-1 for the treatment of Shingles. The Company cannot project an exact date for filing an IND for any of its drugs because of dependence on a number of external collaborators and consultants. The Company is currently focused on advancing NV-387 into Phase II human clinical trials.

NV-CoV-2 (API NV-387) is our nanoviricide drug candidate for COVID-19 that does not encapsulate remdesivir. NV-CoV-2-R is our other drug candidate for COVID-19 that is made up of NV-387 with remdesivir encapsulated within its polymeric micelles. The Company believes that since remdesivir is already US FDA approved, our drug candidate encapsulating remdesivir is likely to be an approvable drug, if safety is comparable. Remdesivir is developed by Gilead. The Company has developed both of its own drug candidates NV-CoV-2 and NV-CoV-2-R independently.

The Company is also developing drugs against a number of viral diseases including oral and genital Herpes, viral diseases of the eye including EKC and herpes keratitis, H1N1 swine flu, H5N1 bird flu, seasonal Influenza, HIV, Hepatitis C, Rabies, Dengue fever, and Ebola virus, among others. NanoViricides’ platform technology and programs are based on the TheraCour® nanomedicine technology of TheraCour, which TheraCour licenses from AllExcel. NanoViricides holds a worldwide exclusive perpetual license to this technology for several drugs with specific targeting mechanisms in perpetuity for the treatment of the following human viral diseases: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV/AIDS), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), Rabies, Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2), Varicella-Zoster Virus (VZV), Influenza and Asian Bird Flu Virus, Dengue viruses, Japanese Encephalitis virus, West Nile Virus, Ebola/Marburg viruses, and certain Coronaviruses. The Company intends to obtain a license for RSV, Poxviruses, and/or Enteroviruses if the initial research is successful. As is customary, the Company must state the risk factor that the path to typical drug development of any pharmaceutical product is extremely lengthy and requires substantial capital. As with any drug development efforts by any company, there can be no assurance at this time that any of the Company’s pharmaceutical candidates would show sufficient effectiveness and safety for human clinical development. Further, there can be no assurance at this time that successful results against coronavirus in our lab will lead to successful clinical trials or a successful pharmaceutical product.

A Digitunity analysis of previously unpublished Census data reveals persistent disparities in computer ownership across age, race, ethnicity, education, and employment status and the gap continues to impact the ability to participate in today’s digital world.

CONWAY, NEW HAMPSHIRE / ACCESS Newswire / October 15, 2025 / Digitunity releases “Large-Screen Computer Ownership: A Call to Action,” an extensive analysis of previously unpublished, demographic-specific data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2023 American Community Survey (ACS). The report reveals that more than 33 million people in the United States either lack a computing device or rely exclusively on a smartphone for internet access.

“This report is the first attempt I’m aware of to explore the lack of large-screen computer ownership across demographic characteristics. This level of detail is important for designing policies and programs that effectively reach the people who need them the most,” said Brian Whitacre, Ph.D., Professor and Jean & Patsy Neustadt Chair, Department of Agricultural Economics at Oklahoma State University and report co-author.

Even with progress in broadband expansion, one in seven U.S. households still lacks access to a large-screen computer, a vital tool for education, employment, healthcare, and civic engagement. This new analysis uncovers stark disparities:

Older adults are five times more likely than working-age adults to lack any type of computer. One in ten older adults relies exclusively on a smartphone to get online.

About one in three adults without a high school diploma do not have access to a large-screen computer at home. One in five adults without a high school diploma relies solely on a smartphone to go online.

One in four residents who identify as some other race and approximately one in six African American, American Indian/Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander residents, do not have a large-screen computer at home and rely exclusively on a smartphone to go online. That compares with 5.5% of Asian Americans and 8.5% of white residents.

People outside the labor force are more than four times as likely to be without a computer compared to those who are employed.

A household in Mississippi is three times more likely to lack a large-screen computer than a household in Utah.

By examining this level of demographic detail, we move beyond averages to see who is most affected by the lack of computer ownership and where progress is being made. Ensuring everyone who needs a computer has one is achievable but it requires treating computer ownership as a shared responsibility and mobilizing government, philanthropy, business, and community organizations to close the gap.

The data shows a clear link between income and computer access: households with lower incomes are far more likely to rely only on smartphones. These results suggest that affordability is a central barrier to computer access. Digitunity advocates for broader, coordinated solutions to increase computer ownership, including the development of sustainable computer ecosystems at the local, state, and national levels

Fonroche Lighting Installs More Solar Streetlights in 12 Hours Than Ever Before

ROWLETT, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / October 15, 2025 / The scene was in Rowlett, Texas, where City Manager David Hall blew the starting whistle at 7:00 a.m. and Fonroche’s installation team sprang into action, working at a record pace to earn a new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the most solar streetlights installed in a 12-hour period. A Guinness World Records adjudicator was on hand to verify the achievement and present the official certificate. In 10 hours and 35 minutes, Fonroche finished the project, installing just under 70 lighting systems, or 3.1 miles of roadway.

Why Attempt a World Record?
For the City of Rowlett & Fonroche Lighting America, this event was never about a medal or a certificate-it was about proving what’s possible. Communities across America wait months, years, or even decades for safe, reliable streetlighting. Fonroche wanted to provide a real-world demonstration that transformation doesn’t have to take a generation-it can happen in a single day. After Rowlett, there’s no need to just imagine it anymore.

More Than Just Speed
Rowlett’s City Manager and Council Members weren’t only focused on how fast the project could be completed. They had a financial decision to make. The local utility had proposed a $2.8 million plan to light State Highway 66. Fonroche Lighting America offered a solar-powered alternative at about half the cost. Rowlett accepted the offer, using the remaining funding to expand coverage to include Rowlett Road and Dalrock Road.

The result: three major corridors lit instead of one, without electric bills or long-term utility contracts.

“Lighting three roadways for the price of one is the kind of outcome that resonates with every city official and every taxpayer,” David Hall, City Manager of Rowlett added. “Rowlett’s investment proves that solar belongs at the center of any conversation when contemplating modern roadway infrastructure.”

A Smarter, Safer Future for Rowlett
Fonroche’s solar streetlights come with a 365-nights-a-year guarantee, staying on even during utility power outages. And because they require no underground wiring, they are completely immune to copper wire theft-a growing problem for cities nationwide.

Rowlett’s record-breaking installation is more than a headline-it’s a model for how communities can rapidly, affordably, and permanently solve their streetlighting challenges.

Rowlett Illumination Celebration & Watch Party
The City plans to celebrate the completion of the 3 projects with a Celebration and Watch Party.

Location: Asadero House, 9401 Lakeview Parkway
Date: Friday, October 17, 2025
Time: 6:00 p.m. until sunset
Details: Light appetizers provided

About Fonroche Lighting America
Fonroche Lighting America, headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, is the leader in infrastructure-grade solar lighting solutions. With offices across the United States, we proudly serve the public lighting needs of cities such as Los Angeles, San Antonio, and Denver. Our systems deliver efficient, reliable, and durable lighting for applications ranging from pickleball courts to major state highways.

Company reports rapid adoption, new enterprise customers, and team expansion; launches industry event series and performance challenge.

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / October 15, 2025 / fintastic, a third-generation planning and analysis platform built for the era of AI, today announced rapid momentum since exiting stealth mode. With more enterprise customers such as Priceline, Wind River, Aviatrix, Nextech, Artlist, and Claroty, and early five-star recognition on Gartner Peer Insights, fintastic is setting a new benchmark for performance, scalability, and intelligence in enterprise planning. Over the past six months, adoption of fintastic has accelerated significantly.

“Stakeholders are tired of fragile legacy platforms and false promises; they need planning that’s fast, scalable, and doesn’t break with their dimensionality or the size of their data sets. That’s what fintastic delivers,” said Jonathan Einav, CEO of fintastic. “We’re relentlessly focused on 100 percent customer satisfaction and delivering the highest degree of performance and impact any solution in this space can offer.”

A Third-Generation Platform Built for the AI Era
fintastic was designed and wired from day one for the modern, AI-driven enterprise. Einav elaborates on the importance of fintastic’s engineering approach, “Trying to retrofit legacy systems is the equivalent of turning a hundred-year-old house into a smart home. You can bolt on a few enhancements, but the old foundation and wiring limit everything you try to build.”

fintastic was designed from the ground up for AI. The platform delivers breakthrough performance, simplicity, and intelligence across three core pillars:

• Performance and scalability: Fintastic’s proprietary dual-engine design, optimized for both dense data and sparse data, enables real-time calculations across even the most complex, multi-dimensional models. In recent benchmark testing, the platform achieved 2.1× faster performance than other third-generation solutions on enterprise-scale workloads.

• Ease of use: A modern, low-code experience enables finance and business users to build, adapt, and extend models order of magnitude faster and without relying on IT or risking production disruptions.

• Smartastic intelligence: fintastic applies AI where it creates tangible value, delivering governed natural-language questions and answers, probabilistic forecasting for confidence in outcomes, and full transparency into the calculations.

Company Expansion and Leadership Growth
To meet market demand, fintastic has expanded its leadership team with top industry talent. Chief Revenue Officer Nate Dawson and Regional Vice President Melissa Powers bring extensive experience in scaling enterprise SaaS businesses and delivering category-defining innovation in FP&A.

“We’ve seen this category evolve through multiple generations, and each one hit a wall,” said Nate Dawson, Chief Revenue Officer at fintastic. “First-generation tools couldn’t scale, second-generation systems couldn’t keep up with change. fintastic is the first platform architected for what planners actually need today: speed, resilience, and the confidence to plan and act in real time. This isn’t incremental progress; it’s a step-change in how planning and analysis will be done going forward.”

The Future of Planning Event Series
As part of its mission to advance the planning and analysis category, fintastic is hosting the Future of Planning series, a set of in-person dinner events designed to bring together finance and technology leaders for meaningful conversation.

Over good food and great discussion, attendees will explore:

• How AI is changing the way finance teams forecast and plan.

• The increasingly strategic role of finance and the importance of informed, accurate planning.

• The modern challenges FP&A teams face and how technology can mitigate them.

The series will take place in New York, Seattle, and San Francisco, offering informative and engaging evenings with fintastic’s leadership team. Seating is limited. Registration is open at: https://www.fintastic.ai/events

Take fintastic’s “Unbreakable Challenge”
Separately, fintastic has launched the Unbreakable Challenge, an open invitation for finance and planning teams to stress-test their toughest models. The challenge demonstrates fintastic’s ability to handle the performance, dimensionality, and scale that often cause legacy systems to fail.
