PGEN CLASS ACTION DEADLINE: Bernstein Liebhard Reminds Investors of the Deadline to File a Lead Plaintiff Motion in a Securities Class Action Lawsuit Against Precigen Inc., f/k/a Intrexon Corporation     

Bernstein Liebhard, a nationally acclaimed investor rights law firm, reminds investors of the deadline to file a lead plaintiff motion in a securities class action lawsuit that has been filed on behalf of investors that purchased or acquired the securities of Precigen Inc. ("Precigen" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: PGEN, XON) between May 10, 2017 and September 25, 2020 (the "Class Period"). The lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California alleges violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If you purchased   Precigen   securities, and/or would like to discuss your legal rights and options please visit PGEN XON Shareholder Class Action or contact Matthew E. Guarnero toll free at (877) 779-1414 or MGuarnero@bernlieb.com .

The complaint alleges that the Defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose to investors that: (1) the Company was using pure methane as feedstock for its announced yields for its methanotroph bioconversion platform instead of natural gas; (2) yields from natural gas as a feedstock were substantially lower than the aforementioned pure methane yields; (3) due to the substantial price difference between pure methane and natural gas, pure methane was not a commercially viable feedstock; (4) the Company's financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 were false and could not be relied upon; (5) the Company had material weaknesses in its internal controls over financial reporting; (6) the Company was under investigation by the SEC since October 2018; and (7) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

On September 25, 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced that a cease and desist order against Precigen. The cease and desist order involved "inaccurate reports concerning the company's purported success converting relatively inexpensive natural gas into more expensive industrial chemicals using a proprietary methane bioconversion ('MBC') program." The order noted that the Company was "primarily using significantly more expensive pure methane for the relevant laboratory experiments but was indicating that the results had been achieved using natural gas."

The cease-and-desist order further stated that the Company "pitched the MBC program privately to numerous potential business partners over the course of 2017 and 2018. A number of these potential partners performed due diligence on the MBC program including reviewing lab results and plans for commercialization. [The Company] has not yet found a partner for the MBC program."

If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than December 4, 2020. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. Your ability to share in any recovery doesn't require that you serve as lead plaintiff. If you choose to take no action, you may remain an absent class member.

ASX Oil and Gas Stocks: 5 Biggest Companies in 2025

Oil and gas are key energy fuels, and ASX-listed Australian oil and gas companies could benefit from their price moves.

For the most part, 2024 was a volatile year for both the oil and gas markets. In the first half of the year, oil prices were riding an uptrend, spurred on by rising tensions in the Middle East amid tightening supply.

However, after prices peaked at US$91.70 per barrel in early April, demand-side challenges weighed oil down, with levels sinking to US$77 in early June. In the second half of the year, oil prices took a hit as global economic uncertainties continued to grow.

By September 10, oil fell to a year-to-date low of US$69.09 as investors anticipated interest rate cuts in the US and the Israel-Hamas war continued to threaten supply chains. Weakness in demand from China also suppressed oil prices. By late December, prices were holding in the US$72.40 range.

Energizing the Future: How Green Hydrogen is Shaping Sustainable Investments

As the world continues to face the challenges of and find solutions to climate change, the hydrogen economy is emerging as a beacon of hope in the area of sustainable energy. This transformative shift is not just reshaping industries; it's opening up exciting avenues for investors keen on aligning their portfolios with a greener future.

Hydrogen, particularly green hydrogen, is taking center stage in the global push towards decarbonization. Unlike its counterparts — blue and grey hydrogen — green hydrogen is produced using renewable energy sources, resulting in zero carbon emissions. This clean energy carrier is poised to play a crucial role in sectors traditionally difficult to decarbonize, such as heavy industry and long-haul transportation.

The numbers speak volumes about hydrogen's potential. Market projections paint an optimistic picture, with the global hydrogen generation market expected to surge from $158.8 billion in 2023 to a staggering $257.9 billion by 2028. More impressively, the green hydrogen market alone could surpass $334.6 billion by 2032. These figures underscore a seismic shift in energy paradigms, with clean hydrogen potentially capturing up to 30 percent of the market share by 2030, up from less than 1 percent today.

Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release.

All amounts contained in this new release are in United States dollars, unless otherwise stated and all tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, except as otherwise noted.

Abbreviations:

boepd

=   barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") per day

bopd

=   barrels of oil and/or natural gas liquids (condensate) per day

e 3 m 3 /d

=   thousand cubic metre per day

m 3

=   cubic metre

m 3 /d

=   cubic metre per day

Mcf

=   thousand cubic feet

Mcfpd

=   thousand cubic feet per day

MMcfpd

=   million cubic feet per day

NGLs

=   natural gas liquids

BOE Disclosure . The term barrels of oil equivalent ("boe") may be misleading, particularly if used in isolation. A boe conversion ratio of six thousand cubic feet per barrel (6Mcf/bbl) of natural gas to barrels of oil equivalence is based on an energy equivalency conversion method primarily applicable at the burner tip and does not represent a value equivalency at the wellhead. All boe conversions in this news release are derived from converting gas to oil in the ratio mix of six thousand cubic feet of gas to one barrel of oil.

Contracted firm volumes .   The 2025 contracted daily firm volumes of 400 e 3 m 3 /d (before any provisions for take or pay allowances) represents contracted volumes based on contract referenced natural gas heating value. Note that Alvopetro's reported natural gas sales volumes are prior to any adjustments for heating value of Alvopetro natural gas. Alvopetro's natural gas is approximately 7.8%   higher than the contract reference heating value. Therefore, to satisfy the contractual firm deliveries Alvopetro would be required to deliver approximately 371e 3 m 3 /d (13.1MMcfpd).
