    The combined net Q2 2025 revenue of approximately $3.0 million for prescription and non-prescription products, including license revenue, increased approximately 35% versus net Q1 2025 revenue of approximately $2.2 million and increased approximately 10% versus net Q2 2024 revenue of approximately $2.7 million

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Jaguar Health, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAGX) (“Jaguar” or the “Company”) today reported its consolidated second-quarter 2025 financial results.

    2025 SECOND QUARTER COMPANY FINANCIAL RESULTS:

    • Net Prescription Products Revenue: The combined net revenue for the Company’s prescription products (Mytesi®, Gelclair®, and Canalevia®-CA1) was approximately $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, representing an increase of approximately 36% over the combined net revenue in the first quarter of 2025, which totaled approximately $2.2 million, and an increase of approximately 10% over the combined net revenue for the second quarter of 2024, which totaled approximately $2.7 million.

    • Mytesi Prescription Volume: Mytesi prescription volume increased by approximately 6.5% in the second quarter of 2025 over the first quarter of 2025, and Mytesi prescription volume in the second quarter of 2025 was equal to the volume in the second quarter of 2024. Prescription volume differs from invoiced sales volume, which reflects, among other factors, varying buying patterns among specialty pharmacies in the closed network as they manage their inventory levels.

    • License Revenue: For the second quarter of 2025, the Company recognized license fees of $42,500 from a securities purchase agreement with a European partner. As of June 30, 2025, the total deferred revenue associated with this contract amounts to approximately $637,500.

    • Cost of Product Revenue: Total cost of product revenue increased by approximately $0.1 million, from $0.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, due to increased sales of Mytesi.

    • Research and Development: The R&D expense decreased by $0.4 million, from $3.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to the conclusion of the Phase 3 OnTarget clinical trial, which reduced trial-related contract manufacturing services and regulatory activities.

    • Sales and Marketing: The Sales and Marketing expense increased by approximately $1.0 million, from $1.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $2.5 million during the same quarter in 2025. The increase in expense was mostly due to headcount and promotional activities related to commercialization of Gelclair, which began in the end of 2024.

    • General and Administrative: The G&A expense increased by approximately $0.4 million, from $4.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $4.7 million during the same quarter in 2025, largely due to increased legal and compliance expenses.

    • Loss from Operations: Loss from operations increased by $0.8 million, from $7.2 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $8.0 million during the same period in 2025.

    • Net Loss: Net loss attributable to common shareholders increased by approximately $1.0 million, from $9.46 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to $10.46 million in the same period in 2025. In addition to the loss from operations:

      • Interest expense decreased by $93,000, from $108,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 to approximately $15,000 income in the same period in 2025, primarily due to changing the accounting of certain debt instruments designated at Fair Value Option (FVO).

      • The fair value of financial and hybrid instrument designation at FVO decreased by $0.7 million, from a loss of $1.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, to a loss of $1.1 million in the same period in 2025, primarily due to fair value adjustments in liability classified warrants and notes payable designated at FVO.

    • Non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA: Non-GAAP recurring EBITDA for the second quarters of 2025 and 2024 were a net loss of $7.9 million and $8.8 million, respectively.

    Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Measures

    The Company supplements its condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis by providing non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP recurring EBITDA, which are considered non-GAAP under applicable SEC rules. Jaguar believes that the disclosure items of these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional information that reflects the basis upon which Company management assesses and operates the business. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP and should not be viewed in isolation or as substitutes for GAAP net sales and GAAP net loss and are not substitutes for, or superior to, measures of financial performance in conformity with GAAP.

    The Company defines non-GAAP EBITDA as net loss before interest expense and other expense, depreciation of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, share-based compensation expense and provision for or benefit from income taxes. The Company defines non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA as non-GAAP EBITDA adjusted for certain non-recurring revenues and expenses. Company management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA and non-GAAP Recurring EBITDA are meaningful indicators of Jaguar’s performance and provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

    Inspire Veterinary Partners Reports Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

    Comparable clinic revenues increase 5.7% vs prior year period

    Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Periods

    • Total revenue of approximately $4.3 million, a sequential increase of 20% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 2% from the prior year period. The decrease in revenue is attributed to the exclusion of the Hawaii clinic (KVC) from 2025 results

    • Services revenue of approximately $3.2 million, a sequential increase of 17% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 1% from the prior year period

    • Product revenue of $1.1 million, a sequential increase of 21% from Q1 2025 and a decrease of 7% from the prior year period

    • Net loss of $3.0 million, a decrease of $0.4 million from the prior year period

    • Entered an exclusive, non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in New Jersey. Once completed, the acquisition could potentially add up to approximately $2.0 million in (unaudited) revenue

    • Entered into a securities purchase agreement for the issuance and sale of securities for up to $10M under a new convertible preferred stock transaction. The consideration, consisting of a combination of cash and transferred securities, was valued at $1.00 per share

    • Announced the launch of a company-wide incentive and recognition program, which provides vital new engagement tools and offers new avenues to wealth for all employees across their clinic network

    • Integrated a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform in partnership with leading software provider Covetrus into the Company’s medical software. The Company believes this is the only AI platform being offered among publicly traded veterinary clinic networks

    • Acquired 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in central Florida (DeBary). The acquisition is expected to add up to approximately $1.8 million in (unaudited) revenue, and brings the Company’s Florida holdings up to 5 clinics

    • For the second quarter of 2025, total revenue was approximately $4.3 million, a decrease of 2% from the prior year period but an increase of 20% from Q1 2025. Comparable clinic revenues increased 5.7% from the prior year period.

    Second Quarter 2025 Operational Highlights

    • Entered an exclusive, non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in New Jersey. Once completed, the acquisition could potentially add up to approximately $2.0 million in (unaudited) revenue

    • Entered into a securities purchase agreement for the issuance and sale of securities for up to $10M under a new convertible preferred stock transaction. The consideration, consisting of a combination of cash and transferred securities, was valued at $1.00 per share

    • Announced the launch of a company-wide incentive and recognition program, which provides vital new engagement tools and offers new avenues to wealth for all employees across their clinic network

    • Integrated a new artificial intelligence (AI) platform in partnership with leading software provider Covetrus into the Company’s medical software. The Company believes this is the only AI platform being offered among publicly traded veterinary clinic networks

    • Acquired 100% ownership interest in one animal hospital located in central Florida (DeBary). The acquisition is expected to add up to approximately $1.8 million in (unaudited) revenue, and brings the Company’s Florida holdings up to 5 clinics

    Executive Commentary

    “During the second quarter of 2025, we started to see the rewards of our new initiatives, processes, and hard work over the past 18 months with sequential revenue growth of 20% and year over year organic growth of 5.7%.,” said Kimball Carr, Inspire ‘s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We also grew our portfolio of clinics to 14 with the recently announced acquisition in Florida while significantly improving our liquidity and capital structure with the recently announced preferred stock transaction. I believe this quarter will mark the turning point for our business model and that our top line growth will accelerate going forward.

    Second Quarter 2025 Financial Overview

    All comparisons are made relative to the same period in 2024 unless otherwise stated.

    • For the second quarter of 2025, total revenue was approximately $4.3 million, a decrease of 2% from the prior year period but an increase of 20% from Q1 2025. Comparable clinic revenues increased 5.7% from the prior year period.

    • Service revenue for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $25,000 or 1%, to $3.2 million. The decrease in service revenue is mainly attributed to the exclusion of KVC from 2025 results and reduced practitioner capacity. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of the DeBary animal clinic during Q2 2025.

    • Product revenue for the second quarter 2025 decreased $82,000, or 7%, to $1.1 million. The overall decrease was a result of customers purchasing less products per visit and the exclusion of KVC from 2025 results partially offset by the acquisition of the DeBary animal clinic during Q2 2025.

    • Total operating expenses increased $285,000 or 5%. The increase is primarily due to increased costs of consulting agreements relating to customer outreach and public company costs.

    • Net loss for the first quarter of 2025 decreased $352,000, or 10%, to $3.0 million. The decline in net loss is primarily attributable to the reduction of interest expense and the exclusion of the operating expenses associated with KVC.

    Balance Sheet

    As of June 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.2 million.

This partnership will expand our reach in Florida, leverage the sales and service capabilities of Nautical Ventures and align with our plan to build a diversified portfolio that addresses high‑margin segments. We believe it will position us to capitalize on strong consumer demand and favourable market trends, while continuing to support and grow our existing brand relationships.”

    Industry data underpins the commercial rationale for the partnership. Boating and fishing contribute roughly $1.2 trillion to the U.S. outdoor recreation economy and support more than 812,000 jobs [1]. Florida is the largest market for new powerboats, engines and accessories, generating $6.4 billion in sales in 2023, a 3.1 percent increase over the prior year [2]. The National Marine Manufacturers Association projects that new powerboat sales will rebound in 2025, with total boating expenditures expected to rise 3-5 percent above 2024’s record levels [3]. Adventure‑style boats-versatile models designed for day trips, water sports and island hopping-are among the fastest‑growing categories in recreational boating, and Nimbus’s Tender, Commuter, Weekender and Coupe series are squarely in this segment. These trends suggest a sizable and resilient addressable market for high‑quality day boats and weekenders [4].

    The Nimbus partnership is one of several initiatives Vision Marine is pursuing as it structures and expands its brand portfolio under new leadership. In June 2025, the Company acquired Nautical Ventures, a Florida‑based recreational boat dealership, marina and service provider widely recognized as one of the top networks in the United States and the number‑one Axopar dealership worldwide. Nautical Ventures operates nine high‑volume retail locations across Florida and distributes a diverse range of premium brands- including Axopar, Beneteau, Brabus, Edgewater, Highfield, NorthStar, Smokercraft, Wellcraft -serving customers from pontoons to luxury yacht owners. The acquisition created North America’s first electric boat propulsion and multi‑brand retail company, combining Vision Marine’s high‑voltage E‑Motion™ powertrain and electric boats with Nautical Ventures’ established sales and service infrastructure. Integrating Nimbus into this platform is part of a broader strategy to offer consumers the best products across propulsion types while supporting long‑term growth for all brands in the Nautical Ventures family.

  • Surgical Tourism: Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Meegan Gruber Warns of Hidden Patient Risks

    Surgical Tourism: Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Meegan Gruber Warns of Hidden Patient Risks

    Dr. Gruber provides a guide for surgeon evaluation alongside complication prevention strategies and domestic alternative options which patients should consider.

    TAMPA, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / August 14, 2025 / Dr. Meegan Gruber, MD, PhD, who serves as a Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon warns patients to research all safety aspects of surgical tourism prior to scheduling foreign procedures. Each year approximately 150,000 to 320,000 U.S. citizens choose to get medical treatment abroad for cosmetic surgery operations which presents multiple medical and practical and legal dangers to patients when not properly organized.

    The appeal of low costs and immediate appointment availability together with eye-catching before-and-after images motivates Dr. Gruber. “But surgery is not a vacation. The choice of surgical location and your operating doctor along with your preoperative and postoperative care management process matters equally to the surgical procedure itself.

    Five risks patients often underestimate

    • Drug-resistant infections. Medical facilities with poor sterilization methods and insufficient oversight have caused difficult to treat infection outbreaks during surgical procedures. The verification process of infection control standards and development of concrete follow-up plans stands as an essential requirement.

    • Travel + surgery = clot risk. The combination of body contouring surgery with extended periods of travel by flight or car increases the chances of developing DVT/PE. Your surgeon must advise you to spend recovery time in the hospital before traveling home.

    • Credentials and facilities vary. American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) certification stands as the specialty standard because ABMS recognizes it in the United States. The addition of hospital OR credentialing with AAAHC or QUAD A facility accreditation enhances patient safety standards.

    • Continuity-of-care gaps. Local physicians face delays in treating complications because they do not have access to your operative records or implant details which results in increased costs.

    • Limited legal and financial recourse. The different legal systems of various countries create obstacles to resolving problems because each jurisdiction has its own approach to medical malpractice and device monitoring and patient safeguards.

    A quick safety checklist from Dr. Gruber

    • Check if the surgeon holds ABPS certification and matches their name and specialty while asking about their experience performing your target procedure.

    • Verify that your medical facility holds accreditation from AAAHC or QUAD A or hospital OR status and that emergency procedures are in place.

    • The anesthesiology details must be confirmed together with information about who will provide the anesthesia. Local anesthesia is suitable for qualified patients but general anesthesia is safer in certain cases and full information about the plan should be provided.

    • Your recovery period needs to be planned to reduce blood clot risks as well as get medical clearance before departing.

    • Before your trip you need to arrange follow-up care through defining the number of visits and weekend/night coverage and establishing what will happen during urgent medical situations.

    Safer alternatives, without crossing borders

    High-quality care performed domestically near patients’ homes provides the safest option when patients need full continuity of medical services before and after surgery. The patients at Gruber Plastic Surgery undergo candidacy screening and receive photography-guided planning and meticulous aftercare services. Local-anesthesia patients maintain continuous communication with their healthcare team during surgical procedures and general anesthesia patients receive detailed preoperative and postoperative monitoring plans. The Out of Town Patient Guide at our practice assists patients who travel within the United States to organize safe medical itineraries with suitable recovery periods and postoperative appointments.

    A word from Dr. Gruber

    “Prioritize safety over savings. Patients must verify professional credentials while selecting facilities that have received accreditation and they need to allow sufficient time for safe recovery. When you are not sure about something, request a second medical opinion. Our team along with I provide risk-focused consults to help you make well-informed decisions with confidence.”
