Prodigy Press Wire

Forest Health Field Day. The students were planting blister rust-resistant Sugar Pine saplings. Sierra Watershed Education Partnerships (SWEP) celebrates a remarkable 30-year milestone this year, marking three decades of commitment to promoting stewardship by connecting students to sustainability, and environmental conservation. SWEP's journey began in 1994 when a group of parents and teachers founded the organization. Although they officially gained nonprofit status in 1997, the organization's roots were firmly planted in connecting local students to their natural surroundings. Over the years, SWEP has evolved, receiving grants, collaborating with partners, and expanding its reach to promote stewardship and service learning. Missy Mohler, SWEP Executive Director Executive Director Missy Mohler reflects on SWEP's early struggles, highlighting the challenges of obtaining nonprofit status. “Despite these hurdles, SWEP has emerged resilient, and we are dedicated to fostering hope and empowering students to take action for the environment.” Missy Mohler's words resonate as a testament to SWEP's perseverance. A significant focus for SWEP lies in addressing pressing environmental issues, from wildfires to waste management. The organization empowers students by engaging them in hands-on projects, like defensible space initiatives. Through these experiences, students learn the importance of their contributions and gain practical knowledge about environmental challenges. Waste management and sustainability are at the core of SWEP's initiatives. By running sustainability clubs and conducting food waste audits, SWEP actively involves students in solutions to combat issues like plastic pollution and methane emissions. The organization's commitment to waste diversion is evident in its success, having diverted 13,000 pounds of food waste last school year. Environmental conservation takes center stage as SWEP's High School clubs travel to various schools and communities, emphasizing the significance of reusable items and advocating against single-use plastics. Their impact extends beyond education, influencing local policies such as the ban on single-use plastics, and showcasing the tangible outcomes of their efforts. The organization's partnerships with schools in the Tahoe Truckee region underscore its commitment to diversity, recognizing it as a key asset for success. Despite past challenges, SWEP has navigated budget closures and grant freezes, securing support through grants, sponsorships, community partners, and generous donations. SWEP calls for funding to support its mission of connecting students to the environment and contributing to the natural world. Over 10,000 student connections in the past five years speak to the organization's reach. The strategic plan outlines ambitious goals, emphasizing equitable programming, outdoor education, and cultural connections with the Washoe indigenous tribe. SWEP remains steadfast in its belief that exposing students to nature will shape a positive future. By intertwining cultural history and respecting the natural world, SWEP aims to create a meaningful learning environment that fosters environmental consciousness.

The Rally That Sent Uranium Prices to a 15-year High Isn’t Over Yet

MarketJar

Uranium prices just hit their highest level in 15 years, capturing investors' attention and confirming analysts' predictions of a long-awaited, major sector rally. On November 27, weekly spot uranium prices hit $81 per pound, the highest since January 2008, according to UxC. This upward trend is linked to a tightening uranium spot market over the past two to three years, driven by inventory reductions during the pandemic. Mine closures led producers to the spot market, initiating the price surge. The situation intensified following the entry of the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (SRUUF) in July 2021, along with other major financial buyers, which has sequestered around 100 million pounds of uranium oxide in the past two and a half years. SRUUF, the world's largest physical uranium fund, held 63.16 million pounds with a net asset value of $5.16 billion as of December 7. Rising uranium demand is driven by factors like Russia's invasion of Ukraine, leading utilities to stockpile against disruptions, and unexpected needs from projects like California's Diablo Canyon plant extension. Since 2019, the market has faced a supply deficit, exhausting surpluses from 2011's Fukushima incident and pushing prices up due to limited availability. While Cameco's MacArthur River mine ramp-up has boosted supply, geopolitical events like Niger's coup have disrupted exports, affecting 5% of the global supply. Strong demand for uranium is further fueled by its role in achieving net-zero emissions and geopolitical risks, leading utilities to buy over 150 million pounds in 2023, a record high since 2012. Weekly uranium prices have already surged nearly 70% year-to-date, but analysts predict more increases to come.John Ciampaglia, CEO of Sprott Asset Management, notes that although current uranium prices are below incentive levels for North American projects, they are boosting revenue and supporting new developments. Sprott predicts a further rise in uranium prices, driven by increasing demand, utilities' focus on supply security, and growing investor attention. While prices remain below the all-time high of $136 in June 2007, there's optimism for record-breaking highs in the current bullish market. Among the companies making waves in the uranium market is GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-A:GLDG), which boasts a robust portfolio of projects, substantial cash reserves of $163 million, and zero debt. This company also holds significant equity positions in NYSE and NASDAQ-listed companies and has a joint venture with the world's second-largest uranium producer. GoldMining Inc.: Unlocking Value and Growth in Resource Markets GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-A:GLDG), known for its diverse array of gold and gold-copper projects across the Americas, also owns the Rea Uranium Project in Canada's Western Athabasca Basin. This project represents a significant venture into uranium, diversifying the company's mineral portfolio. GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-A:GLDG) is gearing up to revitalize exploration at its Rea Uranium Project in Canada's Western Athabasca Basin. CEO Alastair Still plans to work with local stakeholders for a phased approach to develop this underexplored asset. Upcoming announcements will detail targeting a significant regional shear zone near the high-grade Dragon Lake deposit. This exploration strategy is inspired by nearby significant uranium finds like NexGen’s Arrow and Purepoint Uranium Group's Spitfire, suggesting high potential for new discoveries along the same geological zone. These developments could position the Rea Project as a key player in the uranium market. Another major factor that stands out about GoldMining, which was highlighted in a recent report by CarbonCredits.com, is the company's enterprise value. The Enterprise Value (EV) serves as a key metric for assessing the "takeover value" of a company, reflecting the value assigned to its assets. Right now, GoldMining 's EV stands at a modest $29 million, indicating substantial undervaluation according to market dynamics. To put GoldMining ’s value into perspective, the Carbon Credits team explains that it’s important to look at the company’s assets. Consider GoldMining ’s La Mina gold deposit. The project is valued at $369 million by third-party engineers, yet the market attributes only $29 million to all of the company’s assets. This undervaluation becomes even more apparent considering GoldMining 's 75% ownership of the Rea uranium project, a substantial venture with Orano, the world's second-largest uranium producer. Considering the current uranium market dynamics, monetizing the Rea uranium asset could potentially surpass GoldMining 's entire EV, given comparable valuations of other uranium-focused companies. This implies that investors essentially obtain all other projects for free. GoldMining 's global resource base includes 12.65 million ounces of gold in the Measured and Indicated category and 13.41 million ounces in the Inferred category. The company strategically acquired these assets at favorable prices during market downturns, exemplifying a contrarian approach. GoldMining operates four significant businesses: Cash and Equity Portfolio of $161 million, with holdings in Gold Royalty Corp, US GoldMining, and NevGold. La Mina Project, carrying an after-tax Net Present Value of $369 million. Uranium exploration Joint Venture with Orano on the Rea Project, justifying the current enterprise value. Project Pipeline, including the Whistler gold deposit in Alaska. GoldMining 's diversified portfolio spans Brazil, Colombia, Peru, and North America, encompassing multiple projects with established resource estimates and significant exploration potential. Notably, GoldMining 's acquisition strategy during market downturns enabled cost-effective expansion. The company's second stage involves unlocking value for shareholders by selling, spinning out, or partnering on gold projects. GoldMining Inc. (NYSE-A:GLDG) has no debt, over $160 million in cash, and equity holdings, ensuring financial strength and eliminating the need for dilutive equity financing. With all-time highs in the spot price of gold and a resource portfolio gaining value as existing mines deplete, GoldMining stands poised for growth. Management and insiders, owning about 15% of the float, demonstrate alignment with shareholder interests. As the energy transition unfolds, GoldMining 's strategic plan positions it to capitalize on the increasing importance of resources, offering investors a unique opportunity in a dynamic market.

HippoFi (OTC:ORHB) Hires World’s Top Regenerative Therapy Expert Dr. Gail Naughton to Drive Commercialization Plans of its Proprietary Technologies

CGR - HippoFi Inc.

There’s a strong possibility that you have experienced lower back pain or heard of injuries in which spinal discs are damaged either because of age related degeneration, playing sports, accidents, or other physical and genetic conditions. The spinal disc is the cushion between the bones or vertebra in the spine that allows for motion and stability. Currently, there is no treatment to regenerate the spinal disc, which often relates to intense pain causing patients to turn to major surgical procedures, that can lead to complications or opioid use, which can lead to addiction. Now, imagine a future where it’s possible to completely heal such injuries and regenerate not only the spinal discs, but also other body tissue and cartilage, restoring them to their original state. The medical implications would be far reaching. This future isn't as far off as one would think, thanks to trailblazers such as HippoFi, Inc. (OTC:ORHB) through its wholly owned subsidiary PUR Biologics. HippoFi’s main goal is to give back to patients the quality of life they had prior to when injuries or the aging process took their toll and eliminate the risks of surgery and dependency on painkillers. PUR’s complete line of biologic products currently includes advanced allografts and demineralized extracellular matrices (d-ECM), innovative synthetic bone-forming solutions, and cellular-derived tissues. In addition to this, the company has several patented and next-generation regenerative stem cell and growth factor driven therapeutics for treating osteoarthritis and cartilage regeneration. PUR’s product and technology portfolio are applicable to multiple large markets which conservatively could be worth about $48 billion providing the opportunity for continued growth, and increased shareholder value. Investors should be most excited for the company’s recent addition to the executive team. There is no one better placed to help HippoFi capitalize on the huge opportunity in regenerative therapeutics than the world’s foremost authority and pioneer of regenerative medicine, Gail Naughton, MBA, Ph.D. Despite their massive potential, very few cell-based products have been approved by regulatory authorities. This is understandable considering these are complex products which are difficult to manufacture. Dr. Naughton has an extensive track-record in this space, with more cell-based products approved by the FDA than nearly anyone else in the world, making her an extremely valuable addition to the team. A pioneer in cell-based therapeutics Dr. Naughton will be HippoFi’s "Head of Regenerative Therapeutics and Commercialization" and has been a driving force in regenerative medicine for over 35 years with a proven track record in monetizing significant cell-based therapeutics and bioengineered tissue technologies in addition to holding more than 140 patents. The first company that Dr. Naughton started and went public with was Advanced Tissue Sciences, which then was acquired by Organogenesis (NASDAQ:ORGO). Advanced Tissue Sciences was started in 1988 and received three of the world’s first regulatory approvals for cell-based products, including approval for Transcyte, a “skin substitute” originally termed Dermagraft, a product placed on diabetic ulcers and used for a soft tissue filler and as a cover to help the tissue heal. The company worked closely with healthcare giant Smith & Nephew (NYSE:SNN), a leader in advanced wound care and orthopedics which very early on recognized the potential of these cell-based products. The joint venture, focused on wound care and orthopedics, not only reaffirmed the potential for these novel cell-based products but also highlighted why Dr. Naughton was indeed the foremost authority on regenerative therapies. At the same time, Advanced Tissue Sciences licensed its first skincare product to a company called SkinMedica which was eventually acquired by Allergan. Though AbbVie (NYSE:ABBV) bought out Allergan, that skincare product is still being sold. Dr. Naughton went on to start a second company called Histogen which went public as well. The company focuses on growing cells under embryonic conditions of very low oxygen and low gravity in order to revert the cells back to a stem-cell like condition. It then uses the byproducts of those cells in a very controlled manufacturing process to produce growth factors and extra-cellular matrix for a variety of reasons, including the regeneration of spinal discs which has demonstrated success in animal trials and the regeneration of the surface cartilage in joints which has gone to clinical trials. Dr. Naughton understands the pathways and potential pitfalls of bringing cellular and cellular derived technologies through the manufacturing process, animal trials, and clinical trials as well as working closely with the FDA which will be instrumental for HippoFi going forward. Furthermore, Dr. Naughton oversaw the design and development of the world’s first up-scaled manufacturing facility for tissue engineered products reaffirming her position as the world’s leading mind in manufactured cell-based products. Although currently focused on spine, the company has the ability to develop other orthopedic and bone care products as well as improve current products. Expediting the development of regenerative therapies HippoFi, Inc. (OTC:ORHB) has already achieved significant success in the regenerative therapies space, succeeding where others have failed. With the new commitment to work with Dr. Naughton, their combined efforts and revolutionary vision should be able to expedite the development of fully functioning biologics solutions in orthopedics that not only regenerate but restore function. One of Dr. Naughton and Hippofi’s first moves will be to continue the work she has been doing which has already shown success in animal studies. The exceptional results from these studies have shown that these novel biologic solutions could regenerate the spinal discs to the way they were before they had degenerated or were damaged, which ties in well with HippoFi’s current product portfolio and innovation focus. With such encouraging results, this means that the treatments would essentially be able to ‘turn the clock backwards’ and restore a patient’s tissues, functionality, and pain levels to the point they were before aging, disease, or injury. Dr. Naughton recently had success getting into clinical trials for human cartilage regeneration, another key area of focus for HippoFi. This is different than repairing because when tissue repairs it usually leaves a scar. HippoFi’s goal is to be able to have the normal tissue / cartilage / disc to regenerate back to where it was originally, without scarring. Right now, HippoFi is focused on the spine, mostly targeting bone growth products to help heal following spinal fusion procedures. And while that has been a great advancement for the patients, the company is concentrating on spine first because that’s where it has extensive experience and worldwide sales channels to drive today’s revenues. While Dr. Naughton also has significant experience in spine; their shared vision and experience will expand their target to other areas as they make more successes. Takeaway Although cell-based and cell-derived products and regenerative therapies have been around since the mid-80s, there are only a handful of products that have been approved by the FDA which has recently opened up new pathways to approval, seeing the importance of these technologies related to the future of patient care. With the addition or Dr. Naughton, and the company’s issued patent portfolio, HippoFi, Inc. (OTC:ORHB) is well positioned to change this and lead the future of regenerative medicine. With her extensive background in regenerative medicine and regulatory pathways combined with HippoFi’s business, sales, and clinical expertise they have clearly created a vision and strategy to expedite these innovative products to the patients that need them most - starting with spinal discs and osteoarthritis, and then moving forward with the regeneration of cartilage in knees and other joints.. For now, it seems that is the perfect time for investors to keep a watchful eye on HippoFi, and the addition of Dr. Naughton will be a major catalyst in helping the company meet their goals and address the significant and unmet needs in the $200 billion osteoarthritis, pain, and cartilage & spinal disc regeneration markets. Although the company currently has a market cap of just about $25 million, it may not remain at that valuation for too long once it starts gaining mainstream attention.

Minuteman Press International Inc

For nearly two decades, Paula and Keith Boyce have been the dynamic duo behind the Minuteman Press franchise in the vibrant town of King's Lynn, Norfolk, UK. Their journey has been nothing short of extraordinary, transforming their business from a traditional high street print shop into a cutting-edge powerhouse, delivering ingenious print solutions to a roster of prestigious corporate clients. The highlight of their journey came in 2021 when they received the coveted invitation to join the Minuteman Press International President’s Club, a testament to their unwavering dedication and relentless pursuit of excellence. Keith Boyce shares the nearly 20-year journey of Minuteman Press in King’s Lynn as well as the key lessons learned, growth insights for 2024, and advice for other owners. History of the Business According to Keith Boyce, “it all began in 2004 with the introduction to Minuteman Press International’s invaluable network of suppliers and partners.” With a focus on marketing, the Boyces conquered new markets, concentrating on delivering unparalleled service that shifted the conversation from price to value. This blueprint for success has powered year after year of remarkable growth, with one notable exception—2021 (during the height of the pandemic). So, what makes Minuteman King’s Lynn such a tour de force? Keith shares, “The system isn't a rigid framework; it's a catalyst for innovation. The transition from the bustling High Street to our present location at 12 Campbells Business Park was a thrilling exercise in adaptability, rooted in Minuteman Press' fundamental principles. Through open channels of communication, our entire team embraced opportunities.” Keith continues, “Then came the curveball – COVID-19. The world changed overnight, and our customers needed novel ways to engage with clients and expand their online presence. We already had a head start serving this market and seized this unique moment, igniting a spark of reinvention in the business, setting us apart from the competition. The reward? A robust financial position to propel us through this thrilling metamorphosis.” Growing the Business Today Today, Keith shares, “Our business is a perfect blend of tradition and innovation. Traditional core products still make up 50% of our operations. However, more recently in 2023 we took a bold leap forward by acquiring an apparel company. The remaining 50% is a whirlwind of online services, with virtual shops, print-on-demand, fulfilment, and drop-shipping at the forefront. These cutting-edge solutions are on everyone's lips as they adapt to the evolving business landscape. In 2023 and beyond, we are elated to provide ‘managed print services’ to 10 customers, with grand plans to expand to 20 in the coming year. The magic lies in the fact that our relationships with these customers evolve into vital partnerships, creating a vibrant ecosystem of success and learning.” What's next for Minuteman Press in King’s Lynn?

We are covering Google, social media, and a reinvigorated campaign to meet our existing, dormant, and new customers face to face.” Keith continues, “As Minuteman Head Office puts it, there's direct marketing, and then there's everything else! This is the fundamental tenet of our ongoing quest for year-on-year growth. We also strive to achieve this with careful consideration of our environmental footprint and the need to focus on sustainability, which is a big point of focus here in the UK.” Key Lessons Learned & Advice for Others Keith concludes by sharing, “The most gripping lessons we’ve learned in our 19-year journey are that marketing and nurturing new & existing customers is an unending adventure.
