Investment from largest shareholder strengthens balance sheet, signals insider conviction, and funds Telomir-1’s upcoming IND submission for a rare disease indication
MIAMI, FLORIDA / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / Telomir Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:TELO) (“Telomir” or the “Company”), an emerging leader in age-reversal science, today announced it has secured $3 million in equity financing, through a direct investment by The Bayshore Trust, the Company’s largest shareholder.
The transaction involved the purchase of 1 million restricted shares of the Company’s common stock at $3.00 per share, representing an 18% premium to Telomir’s closing share price of $2.54 on the date of execution. The transaction was structured as a straight restricted common stock transaction with no warrants, no discounts, and no convertible features.
This transaction follows a prior $1 million equity investment at $7.00 per share made on December 9, 2024, through The Starwood Trust-an entity affiliated with the Company’s largest shareholder – and complements an existing $5 million non-dilutive line of credit from the same affiliated group, which remains undrawn.
“We’ve now raised $4 million in equity and secured a $5 million credit line – all through affiliated entities on shareholder-friendly terms,” said Erez Aminov, Chairman and CEO of Telomir. “These investments included no warrants, no discounts, and no toxic structures. Every financing decision we make is grounded in a long-term view of shareholder value, and this raise reflects that discipline.”
From an operational standpoint, our first goal is to submit our IND by year-end and generate early human efficacy data in the most efficient and capital-responsible way. We believe pursuing a rare disease indication gives us a strategic entry point to demonstrate clinical impact and build broader value.
Advancing a Growing Pipeline with Breakthrough Potential
Telomir is advancing two highly innovative drug candidates: Telomir-1, a first-in-class age-reversal molecule targeting the root causes of cellular decline, and Telomir-Ag2, a stabilized Silver(II) compound designed to address the growing threat of drug-resistant infections.
Telomir-1: Reversing Aging, Treating Disease, and Extending Longevity
Telomir-1 is an oral small molecule that addresses five fundamental biological drivers of aging and chronic disease: mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, calcium imbalance, toxic metal accumulation (iron and copper), and telomere shortening.
In preclinical models, Telomir-1 has demonstrated:
Reversal of the biological clock, improving both lifespan and health span
Improvement of mitochondrial energy production in metabolically stressed cells
Reduction of oxidative stress (ROS), a key contributor to age-related damage
Correction of calcium signaling pathways associated with neurodegeneration and cell death
Protection against metal-induced toxicity from iron and copper
Telomere lengthening and stabilization to support cellular regeneration
Therapeutic potential has been demonstrated across several critical indications:
Progeria: Telomir confirms lifespan restoration and normalization of accelerated aging in a preclinical model of Progeria, a rare genetic disorder causing rapid aging
Type 2 diabetes: Telomir-1 reversed insulin resistance, lowered fasting glucose, and improved glucose homeostasis in zebrafish models
Wilson’s disease: Telomir-1 protected cells from copper-induced toxicity, restoring mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress
Oncology: In a prostate cancer mice model, Telomir-1 reduced tumor volume by approximately 50%
Chemotherapy support: Co-administration with Paclitaxel prevented mortality in animals otherwise experiencing toxicity
Retinal and neural protection: In vitro studies showed strong protection of human retinal cells from oxidative and metal stress conditions
These results support the advancement of Telomir-1 in multiple rare and high-value indications, including:
Progeria and Werner Syndrome
Wilson’s Disease
Type 2 Diabetes
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Spasmodic Dysphonia (SD)
Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Telomir plans to engage with the FDA through the Rare Disease Endpoint Advancement (RDEA) Pilot Program, which supports the development of novel clinical endpoints for underserved conditions. In parallel, the Company is advancing a rare disease indication aligned with Telomir-1’s mechanism of action to efficiently generate early human efficacy data and support broader clinical development.
Telomir-Ag2: Stabilized Silver(II) for Drug-Resistant Infections
Telomir-Ag2 is a novel Silver(II) complex stabilized using Telomir’s proprietary chelation platform. Silver(II) has historically shown strong antimicrobial potential but has remained clinically impractical due to its instability-until now.
Preclinical studies demonstrate that Telomir-Ag2 is active against:
Escherichia coli
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Enterococcus faecalis
Staphylococcus aureus
Methicillin- and aminoglycoside-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MARSA)
Key features include:
Superior antimicrobial performance over Silver(I) in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays
No sulfa-based compounds, minimizing allergic and cytotoxic risks
Broad potential as a topical product across burn treatment, wound care, and surgical infection prevention
Telomir-Ag2 addresses a growing global market projected to exceed $30 billion across antimicrobial dressings, hospital-acquired infection prevention, and wound care.
“Telomir-Ag2 may be the first stabilized Silver(II) compound viable for medical use,” said Dr. Itzchak Angel, Chief Scientific Advisor of the Company. “It’s broad-spectrum activity, especially against resistant strains, represents a major advancement in antimicrobial science.”

CEPM offers enterprises a proactive approach to cloud optimization integrated into engineering workflows, and drives immediate savings and long-term efficiency.
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / PointFive, a leading provider of innovative cloud efficiency solutions, announced the launch of Cloud Efficiency Posture Management (CEPM), a new category of cloud optimization technology designed for enterprise engineering and FinOps teams. Inspired by the Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), CEPM represents a shift from periodic cost reviews to an always-on, strategic discipline for managing cloud efficiency across an organization.
Traditional cloud cost management tools typically emphasize financial reporting and surface-level optimizations. They neglect deeper technical inefficiencies, resulting in missed opportunities and limited accountability from engineering teams. CEPM addresses this critical gap by proactively detecting hidden cloud waste, providing context, and actionable recommendations.
“We started PointFive to solve cloud inefficiency at its root – the technical, operational reasons – not just surface-level cost management,” said Alon Arvatz, CEO and Founder of PointFive. “Our new CEPM approach makes cloud efficiency as routine and automatic as cloud security, embedding ongoing optimization deeply into daily engineering processes. This shift is essential for enterprises to realize sustainable efficiency at scale.”
“When we started exploring CEPM across different cloud providers, we were struck by how profoundly each platform’s unique metrics influence efficiency,” said Dor Azouri, VP of Research at PointFive. “Traditional tools overlook this because their focus is surface-level visibility. With DeepWaste™, context is everything. The significant savings we uncovered were eye-opening.”
Key features of CEPM include:
Deep Optimization Insights: Identifies subtle inefficiencies missed by traditional tools, providing actionable, engineer-friendly recommendations.
Seamless Workflow Integration: Directly integrates widely-used engineering platforms like Jira and ServiceNow and communication platforms like Slack and Teams, embedding efficiency management into everyday tasks without disruption.
Rapid ROI and Immediate Impact: Enterprises such as Blackhawk Network (BHN), E.ON, Elastic, and Fanatics have already seen increased efficiency and significant cost savings within weeks of deployment.
Frictionless, Rapid Deployment: CEPM’s agentless architecture enables deployment in a single integration, providing immediate visibility into inefficiencies and opportunities.
Unique Azure Insights and Expanded Multi-Cloud Optimization: PointFive fully supports Microsoft Azure, AWS, and GCP. The importance of CEPM becomes even more evident in multi-cloud environments, where each provider surfaces different metrics, cost structures, and usage patterns. Azure, for example, reveals inefficiencies that may never appear in AWS, making cross-cloud efficiency difficult to standardize manually. CEPM bridges these gaps. It automates the discovery of cloud-specific opportunities while providing a unified, organization-wide view of efficiency posture. Early Azure adopters have uncovered millions in savings from inefficiencies unique to Azure’s environment.
Customers like BHN have successfully streamlined cloud optimization practices through CEPM, fostering deeper engineering engagement and sustained cost efficiencies.
“Cloud optimization should not be a periodic task or reactive exercise,” Arvatz emphasized. “CEPM empowers engineering teams to continuously embed efficiency into daily operations. The result is sustainable cloud savings, improved reliability, and increased agility – delivering strategic value far beyond simple cost-cutting.”

HOUSTON, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / EON Resources Inc. (NYSE American:EONR) (“EON” or the “Company”) is an independent upstream energy company with oil and gas properties in the Permian Basin. Today, the Company posted an updated investor deck and the first quarter of 2025 earnings call deck to the Company’s website: https://www.eon-r.com/presentations.
About the Oil Field Property
In November 2023, the Company acquired LH Operating, LLC (“LHO”) including its holdings in New Mexico of oil and gas waterflood production comprising 13,700 contiguous leasehold acres, 342 producing wells and 207 injection wells situated on 20 federal and 3 state leases in the Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field. The Grayburg-Jackson Oil Field is located on the Northwest Shelf of the prolific Permian Basin in Eddy County, New Mexico.
Leasehold rights of LHO, now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, include the Seven Rivers, Queen, Grayburg and San Andres intervals that range from as shallow as 1,500 feet to 4,000 feet in depth. The December 2023 reserve report from our third-party engineer, William H. Cobb and Associates, Inc. (“Cobb”), reflects LHO to have proven reserves of approximately 15.4 million barrels of oil and 3.5 billion cubic feet of natural gas. The mapped original-oil-in-place (“OOIP”) in the LHO leasehold is approximately 876 million barrels of oil in the Grayburg and San Andres intervals and 80 million barrels in the Seven Rivers interval for a total OOIP of approximately 956,000,000 barrels of oil.
Our primary production is currently from the Seven Rivers zone. In addition to proven reserves, the Company believes it may access an additional 34 million barrels of oil by adding perforations in the Grayburg and San Andres formations. With proven oil reserves of over 15 million barrels, combined with the potential 34 million additional barrels from the Grayburg and San Andres zones, LHO should produce oil and a revenue stream for more than two decades with a low decline rate.

TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / May 21, 2025 / Grid Metals Corp. (TSXV:GRDM)(OTCQB:MSMGF) (“Grid” or the “Company”) announced drill results from the remaining 19 drill holes at the Eagle gabbro and the completion of new geophysical surveys at the Mayville copper/nickel project in southeastern Manitoba. The drilling confirmed a 2 km mineralized trend at the eastern part of the Mayville Complex. Newly completed airborne geophysics has provided multiple targets for new discoveries and resource expansion.
The next planned Grid drill program in the Bird River area is at the Makwa nickel/copper property. Permitting for exploration drilling is well advanced and an ongoing field program at Makwa is focused on the highest priority geophysical targets from the recently completed Geotech Ltd. VTEM™ MAX electromagnetic survey. The Makwa property is subject to an option and joint venture agreement currently funded by Teck Resources Limited.
The Company is also in the process of permitting exploration drilling at the Falcon West property for cesium. The most recent drilling at the Lucy pegmatite (Q1 2024) by Grid intersected 3.20m of 4.6% Cs2O in a >100-metre-long cesium-enrichment trend. The drill target at Lucy is a near-surface, flat-lying cesium and lithium-enriched portion of the larger Lucy Pegmatite in which most of the cesium is believed to be associated with the primary cesium ore mineral, pollucite. Pollucite is the preferred feedstock to the cesium chemicals industry, including the nearby Tantalum Mining Corporation of Canada Ltd.’s cesium chemical plant. The next phase of drilling at the Lucy Pegmatite will be designed to test the distribution of pollucite within this specific target area.
Eagle Gabbro Exploration Highlights
The Eagle gabbro drill program intersected disseminated copper/nickel sulfide mineralization at three locations along 2 km of strike length at the Eagle gabbro on the eastern end of the Mayville copper/nickel project. Highlights from the remaining holes include:
70.8m at 0.85% CuEq1 from 105.2m in hole EAG24-07, including 13.8m at 1.50% CuEq from 110.0m (New Manitoba deposit3 area)
8.9m at 0.90% CuEq from 149.6m in hole EAG24-09
19.7m at 0.82% CuEq from 145.0m in hole EAG24-16
22.3m at 0.75% CuEq from 172.0m in hole EAG24-17
6.5m at 1.07% CuEq from 84.4m in hole EAG24-22
New airborne EM surveys completed in Q4 2024 have defined numerous, strong EM anomalies at the Mayville project that could reflect massive magmatic sulfide accumulations.
Dr. Dave Peck, P.Geo., Grid’s Vice President of Exploration, stated “The new drill results confirm the mineralized nature at the Eagle gabbro, which is located ~10 km from Grid’s existing 32 Mt indicated open-pit, copper-rich Mayville deposit2. We are now looking at a ~20 km long mineralized mafic-ultramafic complex having demonstrated potential to expand on the Mayville resource. Moreover, the results from the recent, deep penetrating EM surveys have highlighted the potential for high-grade massive sulfide deposits on the Property. In the future, adding new high-grade resources to the known near-surface disseminated sulfide deposits is seen as the best path forward for this project.”
Figure 1. Location of the 1) Mayville Deposit (yellow); 2) the top-ranked and untested conductor anomalies potentially associated with massive Cu-Ni sulfide mineralization at the Mayville project; and 3) the Eagle gabbro area. The map shows the interpreted limits of the Mayville-Eagle Complex (black outline) on a tilt derivative total magnetic intensity background image.
1 The Mayville deposit is located ~10 km to the west of the Eagle gabbro and is estimated to contain 32.0 million tonnes of indicated resources averaging 0.40% Cu and 0.16% Ni (see the Company’s May 6, 2024 news release for details)
2 Cu Eq is the copper equivalent grade, calculated as follows: CuEq (%) = Cu% + ((Ni% x NiR x NiP) + (Co% x CoR x CoP) + (Pt g/t x PtR x PtP) + (Pd g/t x PdR x PdP) + (Au g/t x AuR x AuP))/(CuR x CuP) where R = metal recovery and P = metal price. The following fixed metallurgical recoveries were assumed, guided by metallurgical test results reported by Micon International in the current Technical Report for the property (June 2024 – see Company website for details): Cu – 85%; Ni and Co – 60%; Pd, Pt and Au – 70%. The following long-term metal prices in US dollar amounts were assumed: Cu – $4.00/lb; Ni – $9.00/lb; Co – $22.50/lb; Pd – $1,100/oz; Pt – $1,100/oz; Au – $2,200/oz.
3 The New Manitoba deposit has a historical resource estimate of 2.0 million short tons averaging 0.75% Cu and 0.33% Ni (Manitoba Mineral Inventory Card #217). The Company has not been able to verify the historical estimate as relevant and the historical estimate should not be relied on.
Figure 2. Hole locations for the Q4 2024 Eagle gabbro drilling program. The map shows the interpreted position of the 4 km-long Eagle gabbro (black dotted outline), which is the host to the New Manitoba deposit, on a tilt derivative total magnetic intensity background image. Magnetic high anomalies are indicated by warmer colours.
Drill Program and Detailed Results A total of 4,132 metres were drilled in 25 holes during the Q4 2024 drill program at the Eagle gabbro (Figure 1). Three discrete targets were tested along a ~2 km segment of the Eagle gabbro. These included 11 holes targeting the historical New Manitoba deposit in the south (holes EAG24-01 to 11); 4 holes at a linear magnetic anomaly located ~500m north of the New Manitoba deposit (‘E15’ target; holes EAG24-13, 14, 16 and 17); and 6 holes at a previously untested disseminated sulfide occurrence at the Acme target area, located 1.2 km north of E15 (holes EAG24-20-25). Two holes were drilled on a conductor (EAG24-016) and a flanking magnetic anomaly (EAG24-17) located ~1 km east of the Eagle gabbro. One hole tested an unmapped magnetic anomaly located along the east side of the Eagle gabbro (EAG24-12). One hole was abandoned (EAG24-15).
All but one of the holes that intersected the Eagle gabbro encountered a steeply-dipping, several metre- to ~40-metre-thick interval of Cu-rich disseminated sulfide mineralization (the ‘Eagle Cu Zone’). The average grades and metal tenors for the Eagle Cu Zone closely resemble those characterizing the Mayville deposit. Most of these new drill intersections are shallow (<100 metres vertical depth>
Table 1. Highlights for the Q4 2024 Eagle drilling program. The true thickness of the drill intersections reported here are estimated to represent 40 – 90% of the interval lengths. Results for drill holes EAG24-01 to 06 were previously reported (see the Company’s Dec. 2, 2024 news release).

Geophysical Surveys Two new airborne EM surveys were completed during the fall and winter of 2024 at the Mayville project area. Geotech Ltd. completed a 143 line km time domain VTEM™ MAX survey over a 3.3 by 4.5 km area at a nominal line spacing of 100 metres and covering the Eagle gabbro in the eastern part of the project area. Geotech also completed a 258 line km deep-penetrating frequency domain EM survey over an 6.8 by 10.4 km area at a nominal 300 metre line spacing covering the central and eastern part of the Mayville-Eagle project area using their proprietary heli-borne ZTEM™ system. Preliminary modeling of the new survey results has identified several strongly conductive anomalies coincident with mapped or interpreted (from magnetics) parts of the 20 km long Mayville-Eagle Complex and with interpreted northeast-striking feeder structures to the complex.
A 5-line pole-dipole IP survey was also completed during the past winter over an area of ~800 metres x 900 metres that covers the historical New Manitoba deposit. The results of the survey highlight a large chargeability anomaly associated with the deposit but extending east and north beyond the known limits of the deposit. The new results highlight an opportunity to expand the historical resources estimated at New Manitoba.
Quality Assurance and Quality Control Grid Metals applies best practice quality assurance and quality control (“QAQC”) protocols in all of its exploration programs. For the current Eagle drilling program, core was logged and sampled at the Company’s core facility located on the Makwa property. Standard 1.0 metre sample lengths were used. Samples were bagged and tagged and then transported by secure carrier to the Actlabs (Thunder Bay) laboratory for sample preparation and analysis for nickel, copper, cobalt and selected major and trace element abundances using a multi-acid digestion method followed by ICP-OES analysis. Samples were also analyzed for Pd, Pt and Au using a lead collection 30 g fire assay method followed by ICP-OES analysis. The Company is using several different certified reference materials (“CRMs”) and one analytical blank for the Makwa program to monitor analytical accuracy and check for cross contamination between samples. The analytical results for the CRMs and the blank for the new analytical results reported here did not show any significant bias compared to the certified values and the fell within the acceptable limits of variability.
