Focusing on Growth Factor Frontiers, Unleashing “1+1>2” Clinical and Market Potential

Growth factors are key signaling molecules that regulate cell proliferation, migration, and tissue repair, representing some of the most transformative bioactive substances in regenerative medicine. Both EGF (Epidermal Growth Factor) and FGF (Fibroblast Growth Factor) have demonstrated significant efficacy across major indications, including wound healing, ophthalmic diseases, and metabolic disorders, underscoring their substantial market potential.

Uni-Bio possesses deep expertise in the EGF field, with its flagship products GeneTime® and GeneSoft® achieving large-scale production and nationwide commercial coverage. Concurrently, under the leadership of Academician Li Xiaokun, the WMU NERC has been a global pioneer in FGF drug R&D, having successfully translated several Class I New Drugs – including Recombinant Human Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor – and has accumulated substantial clinical data and authoritative expert consensus in trauma and metabolic diseases.

Building on this foundation, the three parties will initiate collaborative research on combined EGF/FGF therapies for key areas, including burns, dermatology, and ophthalmology. The goal is to unlock powerful therapeutic synergies, develop superior combination products and advance delivery systems, set new treatment benchmarks, and establish a leadership position in shaping this multi-billion Yuan sector.

Through the ongoing research of Academician Li Xiaokun’s team, the Center has achieved internationally leading breakthroughs in key technologies, including long-acting Modification, targeted delivery, and aerosol inhalation.

The planned “Uni-Bio – WMU Joint Innovation Laboratory for Translational Medicine” will conduct in-depth research into the synergistic mechanisms of Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) and Fibroblast Growth Factor (FGF) in regulating metabolic homeostasis, improving insulin sensitivity, and promoting tissue repair. It aims to develop novel compound formulations and drug delivery systems targeting conditions such as endocrine diseases represented by non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), respiratory diseases represented by asthma, as well as bone tissue repair. These diseases affect a large global patient population, yet there remains a significant unmet clinical need for innovative therapies. Through this collaboration, it is expected to address treatment gaps in multiple specific indications, further unlocking clinical and commercial value in the broad chronic disease market.

The “Government-University-Enterprise ” Trinity, Systematically Strengthening Full-Chain Capabilities

This collaboration extends beyond technological synergy to ecosystem co-development. The People’s Government of Ouhai District, Wenzhou, is a key facilitator and supporter of this strategic cooperation, committed to building a first-class biomedical industry ecosystem. Its core platform, the “China Gene Valley,” will provide comprehensive spatial support and specialized policy assistance for the cooperative projects across all stages – from R&D and pilot-scale testing to industrialization.

AEVIS VICTORIA SA (“AEVIS”) announces the successful completion of a comprehensive refinancing program across multiple levels of the Group, as part of its ongoing efforts to optimize its capital and financing structure.

At the holding company level, AEVIS arranged a new syndicated financing facility, enhancing the Group’s overall financial flexibility and liquidity profile.

Within the real estate segment, AEVIS completed the refinancing of an interim facility originally put in place in 2020 to finance the acquisition of several hotel assets. This interim financing has been replaced with long-term, traditional mortgage financings, further strengthening the stability of the Group’s balance sheet. In addition, AEVIS successfully secured a new financing facility for L’Oscar Hotel in London.

Collectively, these transactions extend and diversify the Group’s debt maturity profile and, together with the significant reduction of the Group’s consolidated debt by more than CHF 100 million in H1 2025, are expected to materially reduce the Group’s cost of debt and financial expenses, resulting in interest expense savings in the high single-digit million range on an annualized basis.

MindMaze Therapeutics: Consolidating a Global Approach to Reimbursement for Next-Generation Therapeutics

23.12.2025 / 07:00 CET/CEST


MindMaze Therapeutics: Consolidating a Global Approach to Reimbursement for Next-Generation Therapeutics

Geneva, Switzerland – December 23, 2025 — MindMaze Therapeutics Holding SA (SIX: MMTX) (MindMaze Therapeutics or the Company), a commercial-stage company delivering evidence-based, precision digital treatments for neurological diseases, today outlined the evolution of its global reimbursement strategy to enable scalable patient access and sustainable commercial growth for next-generation neurotherapeutics.

Building on a decade of clinical development and five years of focused reimbursement engagement, the Company’s approach integrates reimbursed deployment in the United States, national evidence-generation programs in Switzerland, and guideline-aligned engagement in the United Kingdom, creating a coordinated framework for long-term reimbursement durability across major healthcare systems.

Reimbursement Journey: From Vision to Scalable Reality

The MindMaze platform began actively evaluating and engaging with U.S. reimbursement pathways for digital neurorehabilitation in 2020, recognizing that long-term scale in healthcare innovation requires formal reimbursement alignment.

Over the subsequent five years, the MindMaze platform worked closely with clinical partners, payers, and policymakers to demonstrate real-world feasibility and utilization of technology-enabled care. This effort began with early clinic-to-home deployments at Vibra Healthcare hospitals, where MindMaze solutions were used to extend supervised neurorehabilitation beyond inpatient settings into the home, enabling patients to continue high-frequency therapy after discharge and generating real-world utilization and outcomes data that informed reimbursement discussions.

This multi-year body of real-world evidence supported the establishment of a CMS Category III (CAT III) reimbursement code for home-based digital neurorehabilitation—one of the first reimbursement pathways designed to recognize high-intensity neurotherapeutic care delivered outside traditional clinical environments. CAT III reimbursement enables continued real-world deployment while utilization, outcomes, and payer engagement are further evaluated and documented.

What CAT III Reimbursement Covers

The CAT III code enables reimbursement for:

  • Technology-enabled, clinician-supervised digital neurorehabilitation
  • High-frequency, high-intensity therapy delivered at patients’ homes
  • Remote monitoring, therapy adaptation, and patient engagement tools
  • Data-driven personalization and outcome tracking

Rather than reimbursing hardware alone, CAT III supports a service-based care model, aligning reimbursement with patient usage, therapy intensity, and clinical oversight. This framework allows providers to extend therapy duration and reach more patients without proportional increases in staffing or infrastructure.

Why This Is First of Its Kind

MindMaze Therapeutics’ reimbursement framework is considered first-of-its-kind because it:

  • Supports high-dose digital neurorehabilitation as a reimbursable clinical service
  • Enables home-based therapy at scale, not as an exception
  • Recognizes AI-driven personalization and remote supervision as integral to care delivery
  • Aligns reimbursement with real-world usage, not rare and episodic clinic visits

This represents a fundamental shift from episodic rehabilitation models toward continuous, data-driven neurological care.

Geography-Specific Reimbursement Strategy

United States (US): Reimbursed Scale Through CMS Category III

In the U.S., CAT III reimbursement provides the foundation for near-term commercial scale. It enables providers to deploy MindMaze Therapeutics’ solutions across post-acute, outpatient, and home-based settings, driving increased patient onboarding, longer therapy duration, and recurring utilization. It also serves as a strategic foundation toward potential Category I (CAT I) reimbursement in the future. Real-world evidence from national programs such as SwissNeuroRehab, and multi-site deployments with hospital partners are designed to support this progression.

“Reimbursement is what allows innovation to reach patients at scale,” said Alexandre Capet, CEO of MindMaze Therapeutics. “Our Category III reimbursement enables expanded patient access and utilization, while our Swiss and international clinical programs generate the evidence required for durable, long-term reimbursement models. Together, these initiatives support our ambition to build a globally scalable, reimbursed neurotherapeutics platform.”

Switzerland (CH): National Evidence Generation via Innosuisse

In Switzerland, MindMaze Therapeutics participates in SwissNeuroRehab, a CHF 11.2 million Innosuisse-backed national flagship consortium involving leading Swiss university hospitals and rehabilitation centers.

SwissNeuroRehab is part of Innosuisse’s national flagship initiatives designed to accelerate innovation with system-level impact:

  • https://www.swissneurorehab.ch/

As a technology partner, MindMaze Therapeutics supports the deployment and validation of advanced digital neurorehabilitation pathways across institutional and home-based settings, generating high-quality clinical and health-economic evidence aligned with payer and policy expectations.

United Kingdom (UK): Guideline-Driven Market Access

In the UK, MindMaze Therapeutics is aligning its evidence-generation strategy with NICE evaluation frameworks for digital health technologies. Engagement focuses on demonstrating clinical effectiveness, system efficiency, and scalability within the NHS, supporting future reimbursement and adoption discussions.

Positioned for Long-Term Growth

With 27+ completed clinical studies, 11 regulatory clearances across major markets, and a data engine processing more than 1.2 billion data points per month, MindMaze Therapeutics continues to strengthen its position in AI-powered neurorehabilitation.

By aligning reimbursement history, real-world patient usage, and national-scale evidence generation, the Company is building a durable foundation for long-term value creation—expanding patient access today while supporting future reimbursement durability across global markets.

Gerresheimer AG corrects comprehensively revenues from bill-and-hold agreements

Duesseldorf, December 22, 2025. The Management Board of Gerresheimer AG (ISIN: DE000A0LD6E6, “Gerresheimer”) today decided to correct all revenues from bill-and-hold agreements recognized in the 2024 consolidated financial statements in the amount of approximately EUR 28m.

Following the audit of the consolidated financial statements and group management report for the 2024 financial year initiated by BaFin, Gerresheimer AG commissioned an investigation by an independent external law firm. This investigation revealed that the recognition of revenues from bill-and-hold agreements consistently did not comply with IFRS requirements and that these revenues were systematically recognized too early.

Gerresheimer AG will correct this accounting error in the previous year’s figures when preparing the 2025 consolidated financial statements. The revenues from bill-and-hold agreements of around EUR 28 million recognized in the 2024 consolidated financial statements will be corrected and recognized in the revenues for the 2025 financial year. This will be partially offset by the correction of revenues from bill-and-hold agreements from the 2023 financial year amounting to around EUR 10 million, which will now be recognized in revenues for the 2024 financial year.

As a result of the correction of these revenues from bill-and-hold agreements, the revenue of EUR 2.036 billion reported for the 2024 financial year is expected to decrease by around 1% (around EUR 18 million), the reported adjusted EBITDA of EUR 419.4 million by around 1% (around EUR 5 million) and the reported adjusted EPS of EUR 4.67 by around 2% (around EUR 0.10).

Gerresheimer AG will not include any revenues from new bill-and-hold agreements in its 2025 consolidated financial statements and will also refrain from this practice in the future.

To the extent that such revenues were already included in the revenues figures of the financial information published during the 2025 financial year, they will be corrected in the respective subsequent publications in the 2026 financial year by adjusting the previous year’s figures. In the 2025 half-year financial report, this is expected to account for revenues of around 4 million euros.

The company will continue to cooperate fully with BaFin in the audit of the 2024 consolidated financial statements and group management report.
