NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 16, 2018 / SeeThruEquity, the leading independent equity research firm focused on smallcap and microcap public companies, today announced it has issued an update note on Zomedica Pharmaceuticals Corp. (NYSE American: ZOM), (TSXV: ZOM).

The report is available here: ZOM Update Note.

Based in Ann Arbor, MI, Zomedica Pharmaceuticals Corp. (NYSE American: ZOM, TSXV: ZOM, "Zomedica") is a veterinary diagnostic and pharmaceutical company creating products for companion animals (canine, feline and equine). Zomedica has a strong management team comprised of veterinarians, scientists, and experienced sales and marketing professionals. The company is led by Chairman and CEO Gerald Solensky Jr., who is supported by an impressive team of executives with senior-level experience at a number of leading companies in the animal healthcare space, including IDEXX Laboratories, among others. Zomedica's mission is to provide needs-driven solutions that give veterinarians the opportunity to lower costs, increase productivity and grow revenue while better serving the animals in their care. To achieve this mission, Zomedica established an extensive veterinarian engagement platform, Voice of The Vet™, and is developing a pipeline of diagnostics, instruments, therapeutics and drug delivery methods specifically designed to address unmet needs in healthcare for companion animals.

Highlights from the note include:

Zomedica continues to advance and expand its pipeline of diagnostic and therapeutic candidates for the companion animal market. The company recently reported significant new events as it prepares for the commercialization of its first diagnostics, including key hires and strategic partnerships that expand its portfolio. The company is expected to begin marketing activities in 2H18, with initial sales in 2019. Recent highlights are as follows:

  • Zomedica announces follow-on diagnostic ZM-020 following agreement with Seraph Biosciences. Zomedica recently added a high potential new product to its diagnostic portfolio as it gained an exclusive license to technology from Seraph Biosciences to introduce a new point of care instrument for pathogen detection, ZM-020. ZM-020 offers substantial benefits to existing methods for pathogen detection, such as faster, more accurate processing time; it will initially be marketed towards point of care fecal and urinary tract infection (UTI) testing. Zomedica expects to initiate marketing for ZM-020 in 4Q18.

  • Zomedica secures $3.5mn in new financing. Zomedica continues to make progress on the corporate front, as the company reported that it completed an aggregate of $4.0mn equity financing on June 28, 2018, offering 1.9mn shares at $2.15. Zomedica ended 2Q18 with cash on hand of approximately $4.3mn, which management will deploy to advance its therapeutic and diagnostic portfolio as well as to increase sales and marketing resources in preparation for commercial launch, which is expected in 2019.
  • Zomedica added to Russell 3000™ and Russel Microcap Indexes. Zomedica became included in the Russell 3000™ and Russell Microcap Indexes on June 25, 2018. The inclusion in the index is likely to increase awareness of Zomedica and has the potential to increase the company's prestige with potential new business and investor relationships.
