Reem Capital Corp. (TSXV: REEM) ("REEM") is pleased to announce details concerning a proposed arm's length business combination (the "Transaction") with Kalron Holdings Ltd. ("Kalron"), a corporation formed under the laws of Israel.
Overview of Reem
Reem is a "capital pool company" under the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") and it is intended that the Transaction will constitute the "Qualifying Transaction" of Reem, as such term is defined in Exchange Policy 2.4 - Capital Pool Companies. The common shares of Reem (the "Reem Common Shares") are currently listed on the Exchange and Reem is a reporting issuer in the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario. Reem was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "BCBCA") on March 29, 2021.
Overview of Kalron Holdings Ltd ("Kalron") and Seegnal eHealth Ltd ("Seegnal")
Kalron is a privately-held holding corporation that was established under the laws of Israel in 2017. Kalron is the sole shareholder of Seegnal, an Israeli based corporation which had operated under Teva Pharmaceuticals Industries Ltd. ("Teva") until its purchase by Kalron in December 2017. Seegnal provides patient-tailored software as a service (SAAS) system for one-glance managing & mitigating drug related problems while providing decision support to healthcare professionals at the point of care. Seegnal has developed, owns and is marketing a concept of addressing the need of detecting and solving drug-related problems, which has been determined as the fourth leading cause of mortality in developed countries.1 Seegnal's SAAS based software platform is a patient-tailored, clinicians'-friendly drug-related problem solution. Seegnal exclusively integrates at the point-of-care, unique patients'-specific data like genetics, food, results of lab tests, ECG, smoking and the effects of many concomitant medications, while delivering accuracy, sensitivity and specificity.
Seegnal is currently selling its SAAS-based platform in the State of Israel and in the UAE. To date, Seegnal has also signed distribution agreements with several major entities in the US which are well established key-players in the field, and is preparing to launch the product in US hospitals in 2022, through its US wholly-owned subsidiary - Seegnal US Inc. Seegnal was founded by its CEO, Dr. Roni Shiloh, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Teva in 2015. Dr. Shiloh, MD (with a strong background in Psychiatry) is the author of more than 40 manuscripts and textbooks on polypharmacy and drug interactions. Kalron was established by Dr. Shiloh and a large Israeli family office, and they jointly executed a management buyout of Seegnal from Teva in late December 2017.
Summary of the Proposed Transaction
Reem has entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Kalron dated April 1, 2022 (the "LOI") pursuant to which Reem and Kalron intend to complete the Transaction, and whereby Reem as it exists upon completion of the Transaction (the "Resulting Issuer") will continue the business of Kalron.
It is currently anticipated that the Transaction will occur as a merger, amalgamation or share exchange, the final structure of the Transaction being subject to receipt of tax, corporate and securities law advice for both Reem and Kalron. The LOI is expected to be superseded by a definitive agreement (the "Definitive Agreement") to be signed between the parties.
It is anticipated that each ordinary share of Kalron ("Kalron Shares") outstanding at the time of closing the Transaction ("Closing") (including the Kalron Shares issuable upon conversion of the Subscription Receipts (as defined below)) will be exchanged for an appropriately corresponding number of Reem Common Shares, with reference to the Offering Price (as defined below). Kalron will not receive any additional consideration for its shares. Prior to the Closing, it is intended that Reem shall consolidate the Reem Common Shares on such basis as is necessary to result in the deemed value of the Reem Common Shares being equal to $2,000,000. It is intended that the Reem Common Shares will be issued to holders of the Kalron Shares on the basis of one Reem Common Share for every one Kalron Share. Each outstanding option and warrant to purchase Reem Common Shares shall be adjusted so that the number of shares issuable on exercise, and the exercise price thereof, are adjusted to give effect to such consolidation.
Reem shareholder approval is not required with respect to the Transaction under the rules of the Exchange because the Transaction does not constitute a "Non-Arm's Length Qualifying Transaction" pursuant to the policies of the Exchange. However, the structure of the Transaction is being finalized and, based on the final structure as reflected in the Definitive Agreement, shareholder approval may be required under applicable law. Trading in the Reem Common Shares has been halted and is not expected to resume until the Transaction is completed or until the Exchange receives the requisite documentation to resume trading.
It is expected that upon completion of the Transaction, the Resulting Issuer, to be renamed "Seegnal eHealth Ltd.", will be listed as a Tier 2 Technology Issuer on the Exchange.
A more comprehensive news release will be issued by Reem in due course disclosing details of the Transaction, including financial information respecting Kalron, the names and backgrounds of all persons who will constitute insiders of the Resulting Issuer, the issued and outstanding securities of each of Reem and Kalron, the terms of the exchange of securities of Reem and Kalron, the applicable security exchange ratios, the details of any meetings of the shareholders of Reem and Kalron, required to approve the Transaction and matters related thereto (as applicable), and information respecting sponsorship, once a Definitive Agreement has been executed and certain conditions have been met, including satisfactory completion of due diligence.
Concurrent Financing
In conjunction with, or prior to the Closing, it is expected that Kalron will complete a brokered private placement of subscription receipts of Kalron ("Subscription Receipts") to raise gross proceeds of at least $3,000,000 (the "Private Placement") at a price acceptable to Kalron in its sole discretion (the "Offering Price"). Each Subscription Receipt will be automatically exchanged immediately prior to the completion of the Transaction (without any further action by the holder of such Subscription Receipt and for no further payment) for one Kalron Share upon satisfaction of certain escrow release conditions.

BlinkLab Completes First Patient Test for US Autism Diagnostic Study
Digital healthcare company BlinkLab (ASX:BB1) has tested the first patient in its US autism diagnostic study, which is geared at validating the company's Dx1 test as a diagnostic aid for clinicians.
BlinkLab states in its Wednesday (March 12) release that the study is the largest digital diagnostic trial for autism in the US, with its aim being to support the early detection of developmental conditions like autism.
The first patient test took place at PriMED Clinical Research in Dayton, Ohio. PriMED, a division of PriMED Physicians, is one of two clinical sites selected for the study’s initial phase, which is targeting 100 patients.
"Launching our US trial marks a very special and important moment for BlinkLab. Our mission has always been to connect fundamental neuroscience with clinical practice through accessible technology, thereby enhancing autism diagnostic evaluations and enabling early intervention for children,” said CEO and Co-founder Dr. Henk-Jan Boele.
According to BlinkLab, the American Academy of Pediatrics advises that all children be screened for autism at 18 to 24 months. This is to refrain from delays in diagnosis, as many children miss critical windows for early intervention.
Dx1’s goal is to address these delays by helping healthcare providers deliver faster and more reliable assessments. The smartphone-based platform uses artificial intelligence to measure sensory sensitivity.
“After extensive app and portal development, stimulus refinement, and testing in hundreds of children, we are very confident in our (Food and Drug Administration) study's potential," Boele added.
Results from the targeted 100 participant study are scheduled for release in the third quarter of 2025. The trial will proceed to the main study thereafter, which aims to test 750 to 900 children.
BlinkLab’s submission for FDA 510(k) clearance is anticipated in 2026.
In 2023, privately held EarliTec Diagnostics came up with a similar innovation for autism detection. The company's creation focuses more on social-visual engagement, evaluating a child’s looking behaviour.
Currently, BlinkLab is the only ASX-listed company focusing on providing autism detection services or applications.

2 Biggest Medical Device ETFs in 2025
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are a popular investment strategy, and generally contain a variety of publicly traded companies under one stock symbol, often with a focus on a specific sector.
Depending on the ETF, investors may be able to track up-and-coming companies, get exposure to top firms or a mix of both. Aside from stocks, some ETFs also track commodities or bonds.
In the healthcare industry, medical device ETFs bring together companies that go to great lengths to develop pharmaceutical-based technology that can improve the lives of patients.
To help investors make decisions when it comes to medical device ETFs, here the Investing News Network provides a brief breakdown of what ETFs are and a look at the medical device ETFs you can invest in.
What is an exchange-traded fund?
Exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, hold a basket of equities, often focused on a theme or niche. ETFs are appealing because they give investors the ability to hone in on a specific market area without investing in individual companies. While they are similar to mutual funds, ETFs trade on stock exchanges in the same way stocks do.
Put simply, ETFs reduce the risk of investing by providing access to a larger pool of companies — they let investors pick an area that interests them and suffer less financially if one company under the ETF’s umbrella underperforms. In this way, ETFs allow investors to enter the market confidently and hopefully enjoy long-term capital gains.
Like many areas of the life science space, the medical device sector can be volatile, making ETFs particularly appealing. For example, if a company in a medical device ETF fails a clinical trial or receives negative feedback from the US Food and Drug Administration, ETF investors will largely be protected from any share price drop the stock might have.
On the other hand, if a company in a medical device ETF sees a major gain, that increase will also be muted for ETF investors. That's why some investors prefer to take their chances by adding individual stocks to their portfolios.
Medical device ETFs to consider
Investors keen on medical device ETFs only have three choices, according to ETFdb.com.
Here’s a brief look at the two biggest medical device ETFs available. The third ETF, the First Trust Indxx Medical Devices ETF (BATS:MDEV), is much smaller, with total assets of only US$2.16 million.
1. iShares US Medical Devices ETF (ARCA:IHI)
Total assets: US$5.1 billion
The iShares US Medical Devices ETF was launched in 2006 and tracked 50 holdings as of February 11, 2025. This iShares ETF has more than US$5.1 billion in assets under management and its top three constituents by weight are:
- Abbott Laboratories (NYSE:ABT): Abbott Laboratories’ medical devices are geared towards vascular disease, diabetes and vision care.
- Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ:ISRG): This medical device firm is the maker of the da Vinci surgical and Ion endoluminal systems. These robotic products are designed to improve clinical outcomes for patients through minimally invasive surgery.
- Boston Scientific (NYSE:BSX): Boston Scientific's device portfolio is extensive. Its areas of focus include gastroenterology, cardiac and vascular surgery, neurological and orthopedic surgeries, and urology.
2. SPDR S&P Health Care Equipment ETF (ARCA:XHE)
Total assets: US$208.99 million
Formed on January 26, 2011, the SPDR S&P Health Care Equipment ETF tracked 66 holdings as of February 11, 2025. This SPDR ETF has more than US$208 million in assets under management and some of its top holdings are:
- Inari Medical (NASDAQ:NARI): Headquartered in California, Inari Medical developed the first mechanical thrombectomy system to receive FDA 510(k) clearance for the treatment of pulmonary embolism.
- AtriCure (NASDAQ:ATRC): Another venous-focused medical device company, AtriCure developed the first medical device to receive FDA approval for the treatment of persistent atrial fibrillation.
- iRhythm Technologies (NASDAQ:IRTC): Medical device firm iRhythym Technologies combines wearable biosensors and cloud-based data analytics with its proprietary algorithms to produce clinical actionable information.

Cyclopharm Signs US Agreement with HCA Healthcare for Technegas®
Cyclopharm Limited (ASX: CYC) is pleased to announce the signing of a major contract with Hospital Corporation of America Healthcare (HCA), one of the largest single healthcare providers in the United States. This agreement marks a significant milestone for the company which will allow the deployment of Technegas® in up to 169 nuclear medicine departments across HCA’s extensive network.1
HCA Healthcare operates one of the most comprehensive hospital networks in the US, encompassing over 180 hospitals and approximately 2,400 sites of care in 20 states.
The national contract covering the deployment of Technegas in nuclear medicine departments across the entire HCA network was instigated by HCA after multiple of its sites entered into independent discussions with Cyclopharm regarding Technegas. This prompted HCA head office to initiate the creation of a broad-based contract which will bypass the need for individual site contract negotiations and most efficiently streamline the deployment of Technegas technology.
The agreement further underscores the commercial demand for Technegas which is already the preferred agent of choice in 65 countries outside the US for diagnosing lung conditions, including pulmonary embolism, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory diseases.
Cyclopharm CEO James McBrayer said, “We are thrilled to partner with HCA Healthcare, a leader in delivering quality care to millions of patients annually. This 3-year agreement will allow for the accelerated availability of Technegas across the US and reinforces our commitment to improving outcomes for patients with respiratory conditions.”
As well as streamlining implentation across up to 169 HCA nuclear medicine departments, today’s agreement opens discussions with the HealthTrust Purchasing Group (HealthTrust)2, HCA’s affiliated group purchasing organisation (GPO) that serves as the contracting and purchasing arm to a further network of over 1,800 hospitals in the USA.
Cyclopharm will now engage directly with individual HCA locations, clinical leaders and Divisional Directors to implement Technegas, prioritising those sites which had already entered preliminary discussions with Cyclopharm.
Technegas has been recognized globally for its ability to provide precise and reliable functional lung imaging. With this contract, HCA facilities will be at the forefront of adopting advanced nuclear medicine technology, ensuring better diagnostic and therapeutic options for their patients.
Mr. McBrayer concluded, “This agreement not only extends the footprint of Technegas in the US market but also sets the stage for its broader adoption within HealthTrust’s extensive network. We are proud to support HCA in its mission to provide exceptional care and are eager to see the positive impact of our technology on patients and clinicians alike.”

Revolutionizing Women's Health: Antifungal Innovation Brings New Investment Opportunities
The intersection of women's health and antifungal innovation represents a pivotal moment in healthcare, offering both transformative medical advancements and compelling investment opportunities.
The groundbreaking developments in antifungal treatments specifically targeting women's health issues present a substantial market potential, resulting in rising investor interest in this rapidly evolving sector.
Despite comprising half the global population, women face unique health challenges that have historically received insufficient attention and investment. Among these health challenges, vaginal candidiasis stands out as a persistent and widespread issue affecting millions of women worldwide.
Recent statistics paint a stark picture of the prevalence and burden of these infections. Approximately 75 percent of women experience vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) — commonly known as vaginal yeast infection — at some point in their lives, with the annual global prevalence reaching a staggering 134 million cases. The impact is particularly pronounced in developing countries, where the associated morbidity leads to increased healthcare costs and a significant compromise in quality of life for affected women.
The economic ramifications of recurrent VVC are substantial, encompassing both direct costs such as medical visits and medications, and indirect costs related to lost productivity. A study published in the Lancet estimates that in high-income countries, the economic burden attributed to RVVC could reach approximately US$14.39 billion annually. With nearly 500 million women worldwide impacted by VVC, including both initial and recurrent cases, the need for innovative solutions has never been more pressing.
The antifungal market: Gaps and opportunities
Despite the clear need, the current antifungal market faces significant challenges. The limited number of available drug classes — only three primary classes — restricts treatment options and increases the risk of drug resistance.
This situation is exacerbated by rising resistance rates among common fungal genera like Candida and Aspergillus, coupled with a lack of new antifungal classes in development.
The complexity of diagnosing fungal infections often leads to treatment delays, contributing to inappropriate drug use and further increasing the risk of resistance. Moreover, the emergence of drug-resistant fungal species from environmental sources poses additional challenges within clinical settings, underscoring the urgent need for innovative approaches in antifungal therapy development and resistance management.
Advancements in antifungal treatments
Amidst these challenges, recent research has highlighted significant advancements in antifungal treatments specifically addressing women's health concerns. The development of oral oteseconazole, for instance, has shown promising efficacy in clinical trials for recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis, indicating a potential shift towards more effective management strategies.
Innovative approaches combining antifungal treatments with probiotics aim to restore the natural flora of the vaginal microbiome, offering a holistic solution to improve outcomes for women experiencing recurrent infections. Furthermore, research into new antifungal targets specific to fungal pathogens affecting women has surged, potentially leading to the development of therapies with fewer side effects and improved efficacy against resistant strains.
Zero Candida: Pioneering innovation in women's health
The femtech market, projected to reach nearly $117.37 billion by 2029, represents a golden opportunity for innovative solutions in women's healthcare. At the forefront of antifungal innovation is Zero Candida Technologies (TSXV:ZCT), a company poised to transform the landscape of women's health. Zero Candida is pioneering a SMART diagnostic and therapeutic device designed to provide a chemical-free treatment for candidiasis, aiming to reduce side effects commonly associated with traditional antifungal treatment.
Zero Candida’s groundbreaking approach to treating fungal infections is centred on its innovative device that treats infections without side effects. This aligns perfectly with the growing demand for non-chemical treatments to women's health issues, addressing a critical gap in the current market.
The company's innovative use of AI and blue light technology shines a new light on women's health. In a pre-clinical study, Zero Candida reported an impressive 99.99 percent success rate in treating Candida infections, a significant breakthrough considering that these infections affect 75 percent of women worldwide at some point in their lives.
Market potential and investor interest
The market for women's health and antifungal therapeutics is on a trajectory of significant growth. As of 2023, the global antifungal drugs market was valued at approximately US$15.8 billion, with projections indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.8 percent from 2024 to 2030. Concurrently, the global women's health therapeutics market is expected to expand to US$61.6 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 4.05 percent from 2024 to 2032.
This growth is driven by increasing awareness of women's health issues, particularly in areas such as reproductive health and menopause-related therapies. The untapped potential in this sector is attracting significant investor interest, with women's health companies reportedly drawing 25 percent of the overall funding market in recent years.
Zero Candida's position at the intersection of antifungal innovation and women's health places it squarely in one of the most dynamic and promising areas of healthcare investment. By addressing the unmet needs in women's health with cutting-edge technology and a focus on non-chemical treatments, Zero Candida is not just participating in the market — it's helping to shape its future.
Investor takeaway
As investor interest grows and market projections continue to climb, the stage is set for a new era in women's health. The potential impact extends far beyond the bottom line, promising improved quality of life for women globally, and a significant reduction in the economic and social burdens associated with these prevalent conditions.
It's clear that the transformative impact of antifungal innovation on women's health is not just a possibility — it's an unfolding reality with profound implications for healthcare, investment and most importantly, the wellbeing of women around the world.
