Pharmaceutical Company - Targeting Drug Delivery
$ 20,000,000
Patented Universal Tumor-Targeting Drug Delivery Platform Co. This pharmaceutical company has developed and patented a universal tumor-targeting drug-delivery platform that can improve the safety and efficacy of many existing chemo treatments, with the ability to target numerous different types of cancer. The technology encapsulates existing FDA-approved drugs inside lipid nanoparticles (liposomes or emulsions) coated with patented human-sourced antinuclear antibodies (ANA). The lipid nanoparticle provides long-term storage stability of the drug and controlled release of the drug over time at body-temperature, and is expected to improve the safety and efficacy profile of the drug, including passive accumulation at the tumor while not harming normal tissues. The Company's ANA, sourced from lupus patients, binds to nuclear material present in abundance in areas of necrosis (dead / ruptured cells) present in and around all solid tumors, thus anchoring the drug-filled nanoparticles at the tumor where the nanoparticle is designed to slowly release the drug directly on the tumor for more effect. As the Company's ANA is not tumor-marker specific, but rather targets necrosis present in solid tumors, the technology is designed to "universally" target many different types of cancer including breast cancer, lung, ovarian, colon, prostate, etc., as well as rare childhood cancers. The Company completed a successful proof-of-concept study at Children's Hospital using Ewing's Sarcoma transplanted in immunodeficient mice. Treatment with the Company's forumlation significantly inhibited tumor growth and extended survival times compared to control mice receiving no treatment or treatment with plain liposomal doxorubicin. The Company has been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the FDA on 2 of the lead drug formulations, providing FDA fee waivers, priority review, and 7-years exclusivity upon market approval. The orphan pathway also enables the potential for New Drug Approval after successful completion of Phase 2 studies, with Phase III data collected while in the market, thus significantly lowering the time and cost to market approval. This same drug inside the Company's tumor targeting delivery system will likely have potential to treat other pediatric cancers, and/or cancers in larger adult populations. As the Company's platform and ANA has the potential to improve the safety and efficacy of many existing FDA approved drugs or even compounds in development, the Company anticipates the potential for multiple licensing agreements with multiple pharmaceutical companies seeking to improve their existing portfolio and extend patient life as they advance into clinical stage. And as it may be possible to file for New Drug Approval following successful Phase II studies, the Company anticipates licensing potential at early clinical stage. Multiple exit opportunities exist with high impact & high ROI. The Company is seeking a supportive capital partner to maintain momentum up to $20M. Funding will be used to advance the lead drug through formal Investigational New Drug enabling studies towards New Drug Approval; estimating $3-5 Million now to advance into clinical studies. Preclinical / animal studies estimate ($3 - 5 Million and 12-18 months); follwed by potential combined Phase I-II clinical study in a rare cancer (approximately 2-3 years and $10M) to potential New Drug Approval, plus additional capital to advance additional drugs in the pipeline simultaneously, thus adding tremendous value to the Company's valuation. Valuations of pharma companies often exceed $100 Million valuation at Phase I (approx. 18 months), and New Drug Approval can exceed valuations above $1 Billion. The Company has numerous, improved high-impact cancer drugs advancing with proper support. NDA is required for comprehensive Confidential Information Memorandum crafted by ProNova Partners. Detailed Information Competition: Trying to improve existing therapies and develop novel approaches to hard to treat cancers. Growth & Expansion: Huge market potential. Financing: If the price and deal structure is right. Support & Training: Transition team included. Reason for Selling: Seeking supportive capital partners to take to the next level(s). .

Process Controller Manufacturer - 2 Contract MFGs
Call/Email
CF : $ 375,000
The business manufactures and maintains process controllers servicing the water/wastewater, industrial, and institutional markets. Products are used in nuclear power plants, universities, hospitals, steel mills, paper mills etc. Two contract manufacturers make the products. One makes the products, assembles and drop ships them directly to customers. The other ships parts for final assembly at the Company's HQ. The business model has reduced overhead and the need for larger facilities. The Company has been through several incarnations since the late 1800's and into the1900s when early models of process controllers were invented. This legacy of innovation was nearly lost when the 2004 buyers, a private equity group, failed to implement adequate management and oversight of operations. When purchased and a new LLC established in 2019, the operation was distressed; innovation stalled and engineering on hold. The current owner, an industry-insider, knew what needed to be done, reduced manpower redundancy, but saved jobs and inspired innovation once again. The value-add potential seen in restructuring; reducing overhead, implementing operational efficiencies and improvements resulted in increased bottom-line profitability and the business' gross margin. Detailed Information Facilities: The 7,500 square foot industrial/office space rents for $4,700 per month. The lease extends through May 2024. About half of the space is open warehouse with offices around the perimeter. Competition: Three large multinational corporations are the most predominate competitors in the market that cannot compete with on price thanks to the greater flexibility in pricing. This flexibility also means the ability to offer more customization options to the customer. Other than lower price points, the Company offers great support & application-based solutions. Excellent support, outstanding products and digital marketing, have helped grow market share in since 2019. Growth & Expansion: The Company is on track for gaining market share in a variety of categories of controllers, and with the pending release of the new a next-generation controller more opportunities will open. Additionally, the Company was been awarded a contract for an international nuclear project. In the future, greater overhauls in various industries will be needed to accommodate greater automations. Many new opportunities that will originate with engineering department. The team will create drawings, and design controller configuration. Domestic and international oil and gas industry applications are still strong; natural gas pipelines require compression, measuring and refinery stations. There will be more opportunity in renewable energy, as the industry becomes more streamlined. To ensure long-range goals are reached, the Seller recommends the Buyer focus on making R&D investments, keep new product pipelines growing, and increase spending in the sales & marketing departments. Financing: TBD if structure and terms are acceptable. Support & Training: To ensure a smooth transition and ongoing success the Sellers will work with a buyer as needed for three months, and longer as a paid part-time consultant, as negotiated. Reason for Selling: Seller enjoys restructuring companies, once stabilized, it's onto the next rescue project!
