    Ainos continues its strategic transition away from marketing COVID test kits and further advances commercialization of its VELDONA® and VOC POCT technologies

    Strategic pivot is underpinned by Ainos' diversified product pipeline

    SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / May 12, 2023 / Ainos, Inc.Ainos, Inc. (NASDAQ:AIMD, AIMDW))) ("Ainos", or the "Company"), a diversified medtech company focused on the development of novel point-of-care testing, low-dose interferon therapeutics, and synthetic RNA-driven preventative medicine, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

    Chun-Hsien Tsai, Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Ainos, commented, "The first quarter of 2023 marks the beginning of a new chapter for Ainos. As our VOC POCT and VELDONA® technologies progress towards commercialization and COVID-19 becomes endemic, we are pivoting the primary focus of our business away from COVID-19. This strategic shift comes after years of clinical trials and development for our product pipeline, and lays a solid foundation for Ainos' continued long-term growth. Past sales of our COVID-19 test kits have helped us establish key infrastructure and partnerships that will support this transition and the success of our upcoming product offerings."

    "During the first quarter, we made significant progress in the commercialization of our VELDONA® low-dose oral interferon-alpha ("IFNα") formulation, especially in regard to its applications for animal health. We signed an agreement with a Taiwanese pharmaceutical biotech company which granted them exclusive distribution rights for our VELDONA® animal health supplements in Taiwan, marking our entry into the multi-billion-dollar veterinary health market. Meanwhile, our efforts in developing VELDONA® drug candidates for the treatment of various human disease applications continue to progress. In addition, our lead VOC POCT testing candidate, the AI Nose platform-powered Ainos Flora, is currently undergoing clinical trials and is on track to reach commercialization by the end of 2023."

    "We currently operate primarily in the Taiwan market, which, in contrast to the United States, saw its COVID-19 peak occur last year. This difference in timing has allowed us to make the transition to a commercial endemic market later than our American peers while continuing to execute our long-term growth strategy. Our achievements thus far have set the stage for a successful transition into our next product cycle, and I am both proud of our progress to date and eager to see where our innovative spirit takes us in the future."

    Hui-Lan Wu, Chief Financial Officer of Ainos, commented, "In the first quarter of 2023, we recorded total revenues of US$49,164. We strengthened our financial position through two convertible note purchase agreements in a principal amount of US$3 million. In combination with our prudent financial management, reflected by only a small year-over-year increase in cash-based operating expenses, we have created a solid foundation from which we can continue the development and monetization of our product pipeline."

    Revenues

    Revenues were US$49,164 in the first quarter of 2023, compared to US$87,200 in the same period of 2022, reflecting a slowdown of COVID-19 infections in Taiwan.
