Taglich Brothers Maintains Speculative Buy Rating On Cosmos Health With $4 Price Target, Highlighting Potential Valuation Upside

Marel Corporation Ltd

By Marel Corp Cosmos Health ($COSM or 'Cosmos') is a global healthcare group that remains significantly undervalued by the market, despite strong execution and broad diversification across multiple sectors. The company boasts an innovative R&D division that leverages AI-driven drug repurposing, along with ownership of proprietary pharmaceutical and nutraceutical brands like Sky Premium Life. As a vertically integrated manufacturer of medicines, Cosmos is strategically positioned within the healthcare industry. Additionally, its logistics arm, CosmoFarm, distributes healthcare products to over 1,000 pharmacies, while its telehealth platform further strengthens the company’s presence in the evolving healthcare landscape. Despite the company generating nearly $60 million in annual revenue—expected to grow to $155.80 million by 2027, according to the company’s guidance for the 2024-2027 period—its market cap remains depressed at just around $20 million. The share price has dropped significantly over the past couple of years, despite notable progress on multiple fronts. Based on the guidance provided issued by the company, it expects to be highly profitable in the coming years, with EBITDA projected to reach nearly $30 million by 2027. Specifically, the company issued the following guidance: The anticipated achievements are expected to result from a combination of strategic initiatives, including a focus on higher-margin business segments, operational synergies, and enhanced cost efficiency. As highlighted by the company, the following key priorities could drive this growth: Expansion of Sky Premium Life's global footprint and product range, introducing new formulas, therapeutic areas, and customized offerings. This will be supported by strategic partnerships with exclusive distributors and digital channels. Global launch of C-Sept and C-Scrub, both of which possess significant market potential and face limited competition. Production is being scaled up, with additional products in the development pipeline. Expansion of generic pharmaceuticals across the EU and international markets, with a focus on advanced generics and innovative OTC products. Optimization of Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO) operations, prioritizing high-demand medicines and competitive pricing strategies. Progress toward World Medical Organization (WMO) patent approval and completion of clinical trials for the CCX obesity pill by 2025, with commercialization anticipated in 2026. Driving organic growth by integrating the pharmacy distribution network to enhance efficiency and scalability. Corporate reorganization efforts, focusing on cost-cutting initiatives and optimizing asset and resource utilization through the integration of business units. These initiatives aim to propel the company forward while delivering sustained profitability and operational growth. Sharing the company’s optimistic outlook, Taglich Brothers recently published an updated research report on the company's common stock. Taglich maintains a Speculative Buy rating with a $4 price target, implying a nearly four-fold increase in the share price over the next 12 months. Taglich estimates that the company’s valuation should improve alongside revenue growth, which is expected to translate into operating profits and positive cash flow. Currently, Cosmos's price-to-sales multiple (0.3x) significantly trails the sector average of 2.4x for comparable companies in medical distribution and drug manufacturing, indicating a potential catch-up opportunity. Moving forward, investors are likely to assign a valuation multiple closer to industry norms. Even with a conservative approach, applying a lower-than-average price-to-sales multiple of 1.4x to the 2025 sales per share forecast of $3.86 supports the $4 price target, accounting for execution risks and potential warrant dilution. Recently, the company has rapidly secured distribution agreements for its proprietary Sky Premium Life brand across the GCC—including Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates—as well as in European markets like Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, and Czechia. It has even signed exclusivity agreements to distribute real-time mpox (formerly monkeypox) PCR tests as far as India. In summary, Cosmos Health is a company worth monitoring as it works to position itself for potential alignment with industry peers.

AI Unpacks Generational Stereotypes, Highlighting Key Differences, but Beer Bridges the Gap

AIport

What happens when you ask generative AI models to depict Baby Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, and Gen Z? You might expect tech-challenged Boomers and avocado-loving Millennials. But what you get is far more interesting and in some cases, unexpected. A joint research project conducted by AIport and Turing Post last month analyzed over 1200 AI-generated images across four different models—Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, YandexART, and ERNIE-ViLG. The findings have revealed both familiar stereotypes and surprising quirks about how AI perceives these generations. Sad Boomers, Happy Zoomers? Contrary to the carefree Boomer stereotype, AI models like Midjourney depict Baby Boomers as introspective, or even somber, often bundled up and gazing wistfully into the distance—a reflection, perhaps, of their disillusionment with the unfulfilled ideals of the 1960s cultural revolution. However, the ERNIE-ViLG model, likely trained on datasets with a more collectivist cultural slant, shows 93% of Boomers smiling. This fascinating contrast underscores the cultural differences embedded in different AI models. Meanwhile, Gen Z’s images are vibrant and diverse, reflecting their reputation as a generation that embraces individuality, inclusivity, and self-expression. The AI-generated images depict Zoomers in colorful, highly detailed scenarios, making them the most visually distinct generation in the study. Generations Through the AI Lens The research explored how generations are portrayed in five key aspects of life: identity, relationships, work, lifestyle, and consumer habits. The AI models revealed consistent patterns and stereotypes; for example, males predominated in the depictions of Boomers and Gen Xers across all four models, while many images of Millennials and Zoomers showed greater diversity and more female representation. Surprisingly, Gen X appears to be the least well-understood generation by AI, characterized by fewer defining features compared to all other generations, likely due to the limited amount of training data available. The one stereotypical Gen X leitmotif that AI consistently identifies is their fondness for flannel shirts—an unmistakable symbol of the 1990s grunge scene worn by Gen Xers who were rebellious teenagers and young adults during that era. As for one (un)expected commonality… It’s beer. Whether they’re Millennials job-hopping or Boomers reminiscing about the good old days, AI consistently showed beer in 34% of the produced images across all generations. Prompt Engineering and AI Insights The prompts for this research were carefully crafted to avoid bias, using neutral phrases like "A Millennial at work" or "A Boomer relaxing." The results offer a telling look at how generative AI models mirror societal stereotypes, often shaped by the data they're trained on. These findings open the door to deeper discussions on how AI reflects, and sometimes distorts, cultural narratives. "Whether we think we can learn about generations from these images depends upon how confident we feel that the training data that went in is an accurate image of the self identity of a group,” explains Senior Engineer and Sociologist Stephanie Kirmer, who analyzed the findings. “For the younger sets, I don’t think we can know how much of it is media representation created by people outside the group versus how much is selfie-style personal expression. Some of what we’re getting, especially for the older groups who don’t contribute as much self-generated visual media online, is perceptions of that group from advertising and media, which we know has inherent flaws." About the Study The study examined the outputs of four globally recognized generative AI models, each with distinct aesthetic and cultural nuances, providing a comprehensive look at how each generation is portrayed visually. The selected models included Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, YandexART, and ERNIE-ViLG, offering diverse perspectives from different regions across the globe. Conclusion Whether confirming or contradicting societal stereotypes, AI-generated images provide a fascinating snapshot of how technology interprets generational differences. The fact that beer remains a unifying theme across all four models shows that, no matter our age, some things—like enjoying a cold one—transcend generational divides.

Perchè gli Italiani scelgono i Siti non AAMS Come detto in precedenza, i siti non AAMS stanno rapidamente guadagnando popolarità tra gli scommettitori italiani, poiché offrono una serie di vantaggi che superano quelli dei bookmaker regolamentati dall’AAMS. Grazie a bonus mediamente più generosi, metodi di pagamento che includono anche le criptovalute e selezioni di giochi più estese, questi siti stanno diventando sempre più gettonati. Qui sotto abbiamo preparato un elenco di motivi, dettagliati uno per uno, per i quali gli utenti si stanno spostando sempre più verso queste alternative ai casinò online tradizionali.

Pro e Contro dei Siti Non AAMS Pro: Ampia gamma di bonus, varietà di giochi, flessibilità nei pagamenti e meno restrizioni. Contro: Il servizio clienti di queste piattaforme a volte potrebbe tardare più del dovuto nelle risposte. Cos'è un sito di scommesse sportive non AAMS? Un sito di scommesse sportive non AAMS è una piattaforma che opera senza la licenza italiana rilasciata dall’Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli, ma che possiede comunque una attestazione internazionale. Questi siti consentono agli utenti di piazzare scommesse sempre sulla maggioranza degli eventi sportivi internazionali, ma offrendo un numero di mercati che generalmente va oltre a quello proposto dai siti AAMS; infatti, come abbiamo già sottolineato, le piattaforme non AAMS sono note per avere regole meno rigide sotto tutti i punti di vista, il che significa spesso limiti di scommessa più alti, bonus più generosi e metodi di pagamento più variegati. Come registrarsi nei Siti non AAMS Registrarsi su un sito di scommesse non AAMS spesso passa da un processo più rapido rispetto a quello che si deve affrontare all’interno dei casinò tradizionali, grazie a procedure meno rigide in termini di raccolta dati. In molti casi, i siti non AAMS consentono di registrarsi con metodi alternativi come Google o Apple ID, in modo da abbattere le tempistiche necessarie per creare un nuovo conto di gioco. Inoltre, al posto della classica procedura di convalida obbligatoria dei documenti entro 30 giorni, come richiesto dai casinò AAMS per evitare la sospensione del conto, i siti non AAMS adottano procedure di Know Your Customer (KYC) meno invasive; questo significa che, anche se il processo di KYC non viene portato a termine correttamente, l'utente può comunque accedere liberamente a tutte le funzionalità del casinò ad eccezione dei prelievi, che vengono resi disponibili solo dopo aver completato questa procedura. Visitare il sito scelto: La prima cosa da fare è recarsi nella homepage del sito di scommesse non AAMS; Cliccare su "Registrati": Successivamente, bisogna cliccare sul pulsante di registrazione che è solitamente piazzato in alto a destra nella pagina principale del sito; Compilare il modulo: Arrivati qui, toccherà all’inserimento dei propri dati personali, come nome, cognome, indirizzo email e numero di telefono; alcuni siti potrebbero richiedere anche la creazione di un nome utente; Verificare l'account: Infine, bisognerà inviare una copia dei documenti richiesti per la verifica dell'identità, passaggio fondamentale per sbloccare la possibilità di effettuare dei prelievi. Giochi da casinò disponibili I siti non AAMS sono particolarmente indicati per gli amanti dei giochi del casinò, in quanto spesso e volentieri sono presenti decine di alternative per ciascuna delle categorie di giochi principali. Giochi da tavolo I giochi da tavolo includono grandi classici come blackjack e baccarat, con molte varianti alternative utili per adattarsi a diversi stili di gioco. Slot Dalle slot tradizionali alle video slot con grafiche particolareggiate, queste piattaforme offrono anche titoli con jackpot progressivi capaci di portare a vincite significative. Casinò live Il casinò live offre un'esperienza estremamente realistica con un croupier reale e include tsvoli di giochi come roulette, blackjack e poker dal vivo. Blackjack Il blackjack è disponibile sia offline live, permettendo ai giocatori di scegliere se giocare a delle partite automatizzate o in diretta con dei croupier. Roulette Le varie versioni di roulette includono quella europea, quella americana e quella francese, con sempre diverse opzioni di scommessa disponibili sia virtualmente che live. I casinò non AAMS sono legali in Italia? Sì, i siti non AAMS sono legali anche in Italia nonostante operino tramite delle licenze internazionali, come possono essere quelle rilasciate da Malta o Curaçao, piuttosto che con licenze AAMS. Questo significa che, pur non essendo regolamentati direttamente dal governo italiano, questi portali possono comunque offrire servizi di scommessa e gioco d'azzardo ai residenti in Italia senza alcuna implicazione a livello legale. Per chiudere, pensiamo sia importante ricordare che, nonostante sia sempre garantito che questi casinò operano legalmente, i giocatori dovrebbero sempre verificare la licenza sotto cui il sito opera per assicurarsi che siano protetti e che i loro fondi siano al sicuro. Metodi di deposito e prelievo Spesso, i siti di scommesse non AAMS danno la possibilità agli utenti di prelevare e versare denaro tramite decine di metodi di pagamenti differenti da quelli solitamente messi a disposizione dai concessionari. Queste piattaforme sono ben consapevoli dell'importanza di effettuare transazioni rapide e sicure, e per questo motivo mettono a disposizione diverse opzioni per soddisfare le esigenze di un pubblico internazionale; che si tratti di carte di credito, portafogli elettronici o bonifici bancari, ogni giocatore può trovare il metodo di pagamento che meglio si adatta alle proprie preferenze e necessità. L'inclusione delle criptovalute in alcuni di questi siti rappresenta un ulteriore passo avanti verso la modernizzazione delle operazioni finanziarie, in modo da garantire non solo velocità, ma anche un alto livello di anonimato e sicurezza. Vediamo ora nel dettaglio quali sono le opzioni di pagamento più comuni disponibili sui siti di scommesse non AAMS. Visa: La carte di credito Visa costituiscono uno dei metodi di pagamento più popolari e diffusi nei siti di scommesse AAMS e non. Visa garantisce che le transazioni siano sempre protette da tecnologie avanzate di crittografia, in modo da ridurre al minimo il rischio di frodi. Inoltre, la velocità delle operazioni consente ai giocatori di avere i fondi disponibili immediatamente per scommettere; tuttavia, è bene ricordare che per alcuni siti potrebbero essere applicate commissioni e che i tempi di prelievo potrebbero variare sulla base delle condizioni imposte dal concessionario. Mastercard: Mastercard è un'altra carta di credito largamente accettata all’interno dei siti non AAMS. Anche questa opzione prevede la stessa rapidità nelle transazioni e la protezione dalle frodi grazie all’utilizzo di sistemi di sicurezza piuttosto avanzati; come per Visa, anche con Mastercard si possono incontrare tempi di attesa per i prelievi che variano a seconda del sito, ma la trasparenza delle commissioni e la velocità nelle operazioni hanno reso questo metodo una scelta molto popolare; Paypal: Paypal è uno dei portafogli elettronici più utilizzati nei siti non AAMS e non. La sua popolarità deriva dalla facilità d'uso della sua interfaccia e dalla velocità di evasione delle transazioni, i cui processi permettono ai giocatori di effettuare depositi e prelievi in pochi click e secondi. Inoltre, ricordiamo che Paypal è sinonimo di un ulteriore livello di sicurezza, in quanto funge da intermediario tra il conto bancario del giocatore e il sito senza che le informazioni sensibili vengano mai condivise direttamente con il casinò. Neteller: Neteller è uno dei portafogli elettronici preferiti dai giocatori che utilizzano i siti non AAMS per via della sua alta velocità e semplicità. Le transazioni con Neteller sono quasi istantanee e permettono di trasferire fondi rapidamente, sia per i depositi che per i prelievi. Inoltre, questo portafoglio elettronico assicura un elevato livello di sicurezza, grazie a sistemi di crittografia avanzati. Bonifico bancario: Operare tramite il bonifico bancario rimane un metodo tradizionale, utilizzato soprattutto da chi preferisce trasferire fondi direttamente dal proprio conto corrente senza l'intermediazione di carte o portafogli elettronici. Anche se questo metodo offre un’elevata sicurezza, grazie al sistema bancario regolamentato, i tempi di elaborazione possono essere più lunghi rispetto ad altre opzioni, richiedendo fino a 5 giorni lavorativi per il completamento di qualsiasi tipo di giocata. Bonus e Promozioni sui Siti non AAMS Uno dei motivi principali per cui molti giocatori scelgono i siti non AAMS sta nella generosità e varietà dei bonus e delle promozioni disponibili. Questi casinò offrono promozioni molto più competitive rispetto ai siti regolamentati dall’AAMS, con cifre spesso superiori, bonus senza deposito, e programmi fedeltà più vantaggiosi.

Brand Engagement Network Brings AI Assistants To Medical Coaching And The $6.7 Billion Concierge Medicine Market Following The Expansion Of Its Board

Benzinga

By Anthony Termini, Benzinga The world of healthcare is rapidly changing, with holistic, accessible care as a key element. In the aftermath of a global pandemic, many patients are demanding a wider range of services that meet a broader range of needs. We may even potentially be entering a golden age of healthcare where patients are being prioritized more than ever, and technology is rapidly advancing to assist physicians in achieving these goals. Brand Engagement Network (BEN) (NASDAQ: BNAI), an artificial intelligence (AI) company, aims to enhance support in this radically expanding industry. The company is an emerging provider of personalized patient engagement. It uses AI to power technology that can see, hear and understand the input it receives from a patient. Using human-like avatars as the interface, BEN says its HIPAA-compliant technology can support highly specific patient requests and can remember, analyze, speak and gesture in a similar way that a person would in a human-to-human interaction. The company’s AI assistants can provide insights about preventative medicine and healthcare options based on a patient’s insurance and health plan while also protecting sensitive medical information. These human-modeled AI assistants are also designed to help augment health and wellness coaching. BEN’s AI Assistants Are Filling Gaps In The Healthcare Industry In August 2024, the company entered an agreement with Members Only Health, a full-service concierge healthcare company. The members-only agreement sets up the development of an AI assistant to serve a number of patient needs. These may include the 24/7/365 availability of a personal concierge to navigate and coordinate the global network Members Only Health (MOH) maintains across providers, health plans and preventative medicine data. Now, MOH expects to have the ability to scale its business much faster and more efficiently by deploying AI assistants to support its growing client base. Nicholas Argento, CEO of Members Only Health says that patients who use healthcare concierge services benefit from professional care around the clock. He adds that AI technology like BEN’s can help ensure that patients “have access to up-to-date healthcare information and the most convenient options for treatment.” The concierge medicine market in the U.S. reached $6.7 billion in 2023. The market is expected to grow annually by nearly 10.4% through 2030. Not to mention, concierge services’ focus on accessibility will be even more important in the coming decades, as our population continues to age; by 2054, 84 million adults ages 65 and older will make up an estimated 23% of the population. BEN also entered into an agreement with INTERVENT International, a key player in the health coaching industry. The agreement with INTERVENT is intended to incorporate human-modeled AI assistants into INTERVENT’s scientifically proven health coaching programs. The goal is to scale a cost-effective, in-depth and conversational support system for both professional health coaches and patient participants. Led by physicians, INTERVENT is a high-tech/high-touch health management company. It delivers evidence-based behavior change and entity-wide or population-based health and wellness coaching. The agreement with BEN is aimed at helping INTERVENT train coaches faster and serve more program participants at a lower cost than would be possible with human interaction alone. INTERVENT’s CEO, Neil Gordon, MD, PhD, MPH, believes AI-driven technology will benefit healthcare providers and patients. He says that “AI will not replace appropriately trained health coaches, but appropriately trained health coaches who leverage purpose-built AI and other technologies are likely to replace those who do not.” How BEN Is Ensuring It Has A Strong Team To Herald In This New Age Of Healthcare And Technology “AI technology offers an incredible opportunity to vastly improve patient outcomes,” said Richard Isaacs, MD, FACS, Dean of the College of Medicine and Professor of otolaryngology at California Northstate University. Isaacs has an intimate understanding of the intersection of technology innovation and medicine and in 2021 was regarded by Modern Healthcare as one of the 100 Most Influential People in Healthcare. Isaacs is a recent addition to BEN’s Board of Directors. At the time of his appointment, he said that he has “always pursued the realization of what is possible in healthcare with new technologies” and that he looks “forward to helping guide BEN’s development of new applications … in the industry.” With the increasing adoption of AI technologies, BEN’s commitment to creating a team of innovators and experts can help set it apart from competitors. Issacs has a long history of embracing new technologies to benefit physicians and patients alike. While he was the chief physician at South Sacramento Medical Center, Issacs led the development and implementation of Kaiser Permanente’s electronic health record system. Under his direction, the facility first began using smartphone applications to help enhance personalized care and improve overall patient experiences. At the company’s core, it is interested in using its proprietary technology to advance industries that require support. It does not seem to be interested in the model of AI for the sake of AI, but rather in developing a robust AI product and connecting with partners to see how it can best assist in bringing evolution to industries in flux. “Improving patient experiences and healthcare outcomes starts with elevating the education and training of healthcare professionals, and enhancing access to healthcare,” said Paul Chang, CEO of BEN. “Supplementing training programs, health coaching (digital and otherwise), and patient engagement with AI technology helps to address significant resource and labor gaps in the healthcare industry while empowering professionals and patients to make informed decisions for optimal health.” Brand Engagement Network believes these agreements will help drive the development of healthcare AI assistants to augment and automate business processes ranging from professional health coaching to patient engagement. The collaborations are expected to help people access specialized healthcare, which may improve patient outcomes.
