WallStreet Research(TM) Announces Release of Corporate Profile Coverage on Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAGX)
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / December 26, 2017 / WallStreet Research™ (WSR), a top-ranked independent research firm with a history spanning over three decades, today announced that it has initiated Corporate Profile coverage on Jaguar Health, Inc. (JAGX) ("Jaguar" or the "Company"). WallStreet Research™ is ranked Number One on the Google, Yahoo, and Bing search engines for both small- and micro-cap research with a global following. A WSR Corporate Profile Report on Jaguar Health, Inc., together with additional information about WallStreet Research™, is available at www.WallStreetResearch.org. The WSR Corporate Profile highlights the Company's recent accomplishments and growth plans for 2018 and beyond.
Jaguar is a commercial stage natural-products pharmaceuticals company focused on developing and commercializing sustainably derived gastrointestinal products for both human prescription use and animals on a global basis. The Company's goal is to become a leading provider of products that address unmet gastrointestinal health needs for the human market as well both the companion and production animal markets.
The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., focuses on developing and commercializing proprietary human gastrointestinal pharmaceutical products from plants used traditionally in rainforest areas. Napo has launched its FDA-approved human drug product, Mytesi® (crofelemer), which is indicated for the symptomatic relief of noninfectious diarrhea in adult patients with HIV/AIDS on anti-retroviral therapy (ART). Mytesi® is a first-in-class anti-secretory agent and the first oral drug approved by the FDA under botanical guidance. Mytesi® is in development by Napo for multiple possible follow-on indications, including cancer therapy-related diarrhea; orphan-drug indications for infants and children with congenital diarrheal disorders and short bowel syndrome; supportive care for inflammatory bowel disease; irritable bowel syndrome; and as a second-generation anti-secretory agent for use in Cholera patients.
Jaguar has received Minor Use in a Major Species designation from the FDA for its animal drug product candidate, Canalevia™, for the indication of chemotherapy-induced diarrhea in dogs. The Company has also completed submission to the FDA of all required major technical sections for conditional approval for Canalevia™.
Equilevia™ is Jaguar's non-prescription premium product aimed at total gut health for the large equine market. Jaguar believes there is a strong and growing need for a personalized, premium product for total gut health in equine athletes, and in December 2017 Jaguar entered into a collaboration agreement with Seed Mena Businessmen Services (SEED) for Equilevia™. Based in the United Arab Emirates, SEED is affiliated with Seed Group, a diversified group of companies under the umbrella of The Private Office of His Royal Highness Sheikh Saeed Bin Ahmed Al Maktoum focused on establishing strategic partnerships with multinational companies from around the globe in an effort to leverage Seed Group's network to support potential business expansion in the Middle East and North Africa region.
Jaguar is managed by a strong team led by founder and CEO Lisa Conte, who is also a member of the board of directors. Ms. Conte holds an M.S. in Physiology and Pharmacology from the University of California, San Diego, an M.B.A., and an A.B. in Biochemistry from Dartmouth College.
The third quarter of 2017 was the first period for which Jaguar reported consolidated human and animal revenue and financial results, post merger, with two months of human-product revenue. The Company expects to see a significant revenue increase in future quarters as it continues to increase sales and marketing efforts of Mytesi®. The Company reported $2.8 million dollars in gross revenue for Mytesi® during the first 10 months of 2017.
Mr. Alan Stone, Managing Director of WallStreet Research™, commented, "With the introduction of human product revenue, along with an expanding pipeline of animal products, a strong management team, and the ramping up of overall marketing efforts, Jaguar appears well positioned for rapid future growth during 2018 and beyond."
