Preliminary analysis showed the 2025-2026 formula of Spikevax generated greater than an 8-fold increase in LP.8.1-neutralizing antibodies across age groups

Clinical findings reinforce preclinical data supporting recent FDA approval of 2025-2026 formula of Spikevax

CAMBRIDGE, MA / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2025 / Moderna, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRNA) today announced positive preliminary immunogenicity data for the 2025-2026 formula of Spikevax®, which targets the LP.8.1 variant of SARS-CoV-2 to help prevent COVID-19. The data from an ongoing Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of the 2025-2026 formula of Spikevax showed, on average, greater than an 8-fold increase in neutralizing antibodies against the LP.8.1 variant in individuals 12 through 64 years of age with at least one underlying condition that puts them at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19, and all adults 65 years of age and older. The safety profile of the vaccine was consistent with previous studies, with no new safety concerns identified.

Recent surveillance data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows the U.S. wastewater viral activity for COVID-19 is high, and LP.8.1 and its familial strains, XFG and NB.1.8.1, continue to dominate. ^[1],[2] This preliminary analysis confirms Moderna’s updated COVID-19 vaccine is a strong match to today’s top circulating strains in the U.S.

These clinical findings also reinforce preclinical data that supported the recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the 2025-2026 formula of Spikevax, which is approved by the FDA for individuals 6 months through 64 years of age with at least one underlying condition that puts them at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19, and all adults 65 years of age and older. Spikevax has also been granted approval by regulators in Canada, Europe, Japan, Mexico, Switzerland and more.

You should seek medical attention right away if you or your child has any of the following symptoms after receiving Spikevax, particularly during the 2 weeks after receiving a dose of the vaccine: chest pain, shortness of breath, feelings of having a fast-beating, fluttering, or pounding heart. Additional symptoms in children may include fainting, irritability, poor feeding, lack of energy, vomiting, pain in the abdomen, or cool, pale skin.

Other side effects that have been reported include:

• Injection site reactions: pain, tenderness and swelling of the lymph nodes in the same arm of the injection or in the groin, swelling (hardness), and redness

• General side effects: fatigue, headache, muscle pain, joint pain, chills, nausea and vomiting, fever, rash, irritability/crying, sleepiness, and loss of appetite.

• Fainting and febrile seizures (convulsions during a fever) were also reported

Tell the healthcare provider about all of your or your child’s medical conditions, including if you or your child:

• have any allergies

• had a severe allergic reaction after receiving a previous dose of any COVID-19 vaccine

• have had myocarditis (inflammation of the heart muscle) or pericarditis (inflammation of the lining outside the heart)

Successful logistics trial supports commercial qualification pathway

HESPERIA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2025 / 5E Advanced Materials, Inc. (“5E” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:FEAM)(ASX:5EA), a development stage company focused on becoming a vertically integrated global leader and supplier of refined borates and advanced boron derivative materials, today announced the successful completion of a key logistics milestone in its commercial qualification process with a major global specialty glass manufacturer serving critical end-markets including mobile electronics, advanced telecommunications, and life sciences applications.

As part of this process, boron-rich material was packaged and shipped in an ocean freight container from 5E Advanced Materials’ California operations to Taiwan via the Port of Los Angeles. The material successfully completed a 20-day international transit and was received on-site for a handling trial, where 5E’s product passed all required specifications. The customer has now advanced 5E to the next phase for full-scale product testing within its production system.

“This marks a critical step in progressing toward commercial validation and long-term supply agreements,” said Paul Weibel, Chief Executive Officer of 5E Advanced Materials. “Successfully completing this logistics and handling milestone demonstrates our ability to deliver high-quality material through global supply chains and aligns with our broader strategy to serve high-value applications in glass, magnets, semiconductors, and energy technologies.”

This advancement builds on the pilot trial completed earlier this year and reflects continued progress in aligning 5E Advanced Materials’ technical, operational, and commercial readiness with key customer requirements in advanced manufacturing sectors.

About 5E Advanced Materials, Inc.
5E Advanced Materials, Inc. (NASDAQ:FEAM)(ASX:5EA) is focused on becoming a vertically integrated global leader and supplier of refined borates and advanced boron materials, complemented by calcium-based co-products, and potentially other by-products such as lithium carbonate. The Company’s mission is to become a supplier of these critical materials to industries addressing global decarbonization, energy independence, food, national security and the defense sector. The Company believes factors such as government regulation and incentives focused on domestic manufacturing and supply chains and capital investments across industries will drive demand for end-use applications like solar and wind energy infrastructure, neodymium-ferro-boron magnets, defense applications, lithium-ion batteries, and other critical material applications. The business is based on the Company’s large domestic boron resource, which is located in Southern California and designated as Critical Infrastructure by the Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency.

Sports Brand Supports Germany’s High-Goal Polo Event for Sixth Consecutive Year

BERLIN, GERMANY AND WEST PALM BEACH, FL / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2025 / U.S. Polo Assn., the official sports brand of the United States Polo Association (USPA), proudly partnered as the Official Jersey and Apparel Sponsor of the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup, also known as the German High-Goal Championship 2025, held August 22-31, 2025, in Berlin. This prestigious tournament is the pinnacle of the polo season in Germany and is one of the most celebrated events in European polo.

The finals weekend for the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup took place at the iconic Maifeld Stadium, the same historic venue where the sport of polo was last played in the 1936 Olympic Games. Qualifying matches were held August 21-28 at the Prussian Polo and Country Club, leading to a thrilling finale that showcased the very best of the sport. In a dramatic final, Team Plusquadrat pulled away from Team Netjets with a score of 7 – 6.5. The tournament MVP was Bartolomé Bayugar from Team Plusquadrat, who was the top scorer in the final with three goals.

“Serving as the Official Jersey and Apparel Sponsor for the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup is an extraordinary honor for U.S. Polo Assn. to support an event that celebrates both the rich tradition and bright future of the sport of polo,” said J. Michael Prince, President and CEO of USPA Global, the company that manages the multi-billion-dollar U.S. Polo Assn. brand. “To support such an historic tournament in the heart of Berlin, on the same field where the sport made Olympic history in 1936, is a true reflection of our global brand’s authentic connection to the sport.”

As the event’s Official Jersey and Apparel Sponsor, U.S. Polo Assn. outfitted players and officials with branded performance team jerseys, umpire jerseys, caps, and hoodies. This year marked U.S. Polo Assn.’s sixth consecutive year supporting the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup.

The brand’s presence aligns with its broader European expansion, including retail growth in Germany and recent high-impact activations in markets such as the U.K., Italy, Spain, and beyond. Earlier this summer, U.S. Polo Assn. celebrated the grand opening of its first retail store in Berlin, located at the iconic Alexa Mall. This retail debut marks the beginning of a multi-year growth strategy across Germany and surrounding regions with strategic brand partners Incom S.p.a. and Modevertrieb Sarnacchiaro GmbH (MVS), further solidifying U.S. Polo Assn.’s presence globally.

“We are excited to continue building our partnership with U.S. Polo Assn. as we elevate the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup year after year,” said Mortiz Gaedeke, Co-CEO of Sevendays Polo Event GmbH, the Engel & Völkers Berlin Maifeld Polo Cup event organizer. “With U.S. Polo Assn.’s growing presence in Germany, including their new Berlin retail store, this collaboration strengthens the link between the sport of polo and their authentic connection with sports fans and consumers.”

Technical Information and Quality Control / Quality Assurance

All drilling was completed with HQ core. The drill core is split in half using a diamond saw. Core is logged by the Company’s geologist on site who outlines the intervals to be sampled. The maximum sample length is 1.5 meters and lengths are adjusted according to lithological and/or mineralogical contacts.

After sawing, one-half of the core is kept on site in core boxes, and the other half is submitted for analysis. Individual sample bags are sealed and placed into larger bags, which are then sealed and marked with the contents.

Samples are transported by Highlander Silver personnel to ALS Peru S.A. (“ALS“) located in Lima, Peru, where they are prepared and analyzed. ALS is independent of the Company.

In ALS, the entire sample is crushed to approximately 80% passing through a 2mm sieve. A 500 g fraction is pulverized. Gold concentration is determined by fire assay of a 30-gram charge with an AA finish (Au-AA23). Silver, lead, copper, and zinc, along with other elements, are analyzed by ICP utilizing a four-acid digestion (ME-ICP61). Over-limit samples for Au (10 g/t Au) follow gravitational finishing Au-GRA21 (30g sample). Over-limit samples for Ag (100 g/t Ag) follow gravitational finishing Ag-GRA21 (30g sample).

The internal QA/QC program includes the submission of field duplicates (1/4 core), pulp and coarse reject duplicates, and the insertion of commercial standards and blanks (coarse and fine). Control samples account for more than 15% of the total samples sent, in addition to the laboratory’s internal quality assurance programs.

The Company is not aware of any drilling, sampling, recovery, or other factors that could materially affect the accuracy or reliability of the data referred to herein.

The scientific and technical information, including the drillhole data, has been verified by Dr. Sergio Gelcich. This verification involves data validation and quality assurance procedures, such as reviewing logging directly in front of the core, analyzing database integrity, conducting quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) for assays, and cross-checking the original lab certificates.
