Tonisity Obtains Import Registration from Government of China for Tonisity PxW

Tonisity International Limited ("Tonisity"), a functional animal health science and nutrition company based in Ireland, is pleased to announce that the General Administration of Customs in the People's Republic of China ("GACC") has approved the importation of Tonisity PxW, which is Tonisity's second swine product. The GACC previously approved the importation of Tonisity's flagship swine product, Px, in the summer of 2022 and Tonisty's companion animal products, DoggyRade®, KittyRade®, YummyRade® and DoggyRade Pro®, in January 2023.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in China approved the registration of Tonisity PxW in 2022, which enabled Tonisity to legally sell PxW in the Chinese market. Having now obtained approval to import PxW into China, Tonisity is now positioned to accelerate sales of Tonisity PxW into the largest swine market in the world.

About Tonisity PxW

Tonisity's second product for swine, Tonisity PxW, is delivered through ordinary water lines on farms to newly-weaned pigs, with very little extra labour to implement. The weaning period and the first 2-3 weeks after weaning is a very stressful time for piglets and can lead to significant weight loss, mortality and ill health. Often, newly-weaned pigs struggle to maintain sufficient water intake. Tonisity PxW provides a palatable formula to ensure that piglets drink more readily after they are weaned from their mothers. Tonisity PxW is patented in many countries in the world and is currently being sold in Europe, Asia, North America and South America. Currently, Tonisity PxW is manufactured in Ireland.

Joint Venture in China

In July 2020, Tonisity entered into a joint venture agreement, as the controlling partner, with Impact Asia Limited, its Chinese minority partner, in order to market Tonisity's swine and companion products in China and Taiwan, including Hong Kong. Tonisity contributed technology and intellectual property to the joint venture, while the joint venture partner contributed funding, senior local management and a sales, marketing and logistics team. China is the largest consumer of pork worldwide, accounting for over 54 million tonnes of consumption of the global 112 million tonnes of pig consumption.[1] Tonisity companion animal products were launched in Hong Kong in January 2021, while Tonisity Px was simultaneously being soft-launched with select swine producers in China.

Arie Halpern, CEO of Tonisity, comments: "Tonisity is very pleased to have received another major approval from the Government of China for our novel swine and companion animal products. Our team will be working diligently to bring Tonisity PxW to the enormous Chinese market as quickly as possible."

Rodrigo Y.C. Yang, Managing Partner of Impact Asia Limited, comments: "We are excited to have received further validation and support from the Government of China in bringing Tonisity's novel isotonic products to the Chinese swine market. Our products improve the health and well-being of animals all across the world, enhance production efficiency, and reduce the carbon footprint of farmers and food companies, all while increasing their bottom line. We are excited to continue pressing forward with Tonisity's expansion into China."

GameStop Frenzy Cools, E*Trade Considers Roaring Kitty Ban

GameStop (NYSE:GME) continues to cool following a trading frenzy that drove shares up by 75 percent between the close of trading last Friday (May 31) and the start of trading on Monday (June 3).

The brief rally, which took GameStop shares to US$40.09 on Monday morning, was sparked by a Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) post made late Sunday (June 2) by an account tied to the video game retailer's most prominent supporter, Keith Gill.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.

Top Trends Shaping the Canadian iGaming Market

From emerging technologies to evolving regulations, the trajectory of iGaming has changed substantially in recent years as the market has experienced significant growth.

In 2022, Ontario's provincial government introduced game-changing legislation that established a regulatory framework for iGaming. Due to this legislation, regulated iGaming successfully displaced the unregulated market, according to Attorney General Doug Downey, creating over 1.6 million active player accounts across more than 70 operator websites as of April 2023 — just over one year following the change.

Ontario's regulation has also laid the groundwork for widespread change in the iGaming space across Canada. As iGaming continues to evolve, it's important to have a deeper understanding of both new and existing trends that will shape the industry's future, as well as regulations.
