CTT Pharma Gives Update On NSF Grant
TAMPA, FL / ACCESS Newswire / February 12, 2025 / CTT Pharmaceutical Holdings, Inc. (OTC:CTTH) submitted a full proposal to the National Science Foundation(NSF) for our patented fast dissolving nicotine strips. The NSF grant program is highly competitive as it receives over 12,000 applicants annually from companies that have innovations that could help society. CTT successfully made it past the first round process and is among a few thousand remaining applicants. These remaining applicants have several deadlines over the course of the year to file a full proposal into the grant program. CTT is anticipating an answer in this program in late April. Acceptance into this program would give government backing to CTT Pharma and would allow for extensive research and testing to help lead to development of our technology.
The World Health Organization states, 'The tobacco epidemic is one of the biggest public health threats the world has ever faced, killing over 8 million people a year around the world. More than 7 million of those deaths are results of direct tobacco use while 1.3 million are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke.' Furthermore, the CDC says, 'Cigarette smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the United States. Cigarette smoking causes more than 480,000 deaths each year in the United States. This is nearly 1 in 5 deaths.
The CEO of CTT Pharma, Ryan Khouri stated, 'To make it past the first round of applicants is a huge accomplishment by itself and shows that the NSF sees potential value for our technology within the tobacco industry. Currently there are no fast dissolving, low dose nicotine strips on the market, as most oral products stay in the mouth for an excessive amount of time. CTT also brought someone onto our team to help with this NSF Grant as they have a tremendous amount of experience with the NSF.'

Apple Reroutes 97% Of Foxconn iPhone Exports From India To US Between March And May As Trump Threatens 25% Tariff On Non-US-Made iPhones: Report
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has reportedly increased its iPhone shipments from India to the U.S. in the past few months, as the tech giant moves to protect its U.S. sales from the impact of escalating tariffs on China-made goods. What Happened: Between March and May, 97% of iPhones exported by Foxconn, also known as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd (OTC:HNHAF), from India were sent to the U.S., according to customs data reviewed by Reuters. That's a steep jump from the 2024 average of just over 50%, signaling a major supply chain realignment. The surge follows President Donald Trump's renewed push for protectionist trade measures. Trending: Maker of the $60,000 foldable home has 3 factory buildings, 600+ houses built, and big plans to solve housing — Last month, Trump publicly criticized Apple's production shift to India, recalling that he told CEO Tim Cook, "We are not interested in you building in India, India can take care of themselves, they are doing very well, we want you to build here." The president also threatened the tech giant with a 25% tariff on iPhones made outside the U.S. In the first five months of 2025, Foxconn shipped $4.4 billion worth of iPhones from India to the U.S., already surpassing 2024's total of $3.7 billion, the report said. Apple even chartered planes in March to fly $2 billion worth of iPhones directly from India to American It's Important: Apple's pivot reflects an urgent response to mounting geopolitical and trade risks, particularly with China. As U.S. tariffs on Chinese imports soar, Apple is increasingly relying on India to maintain access to the crucial U.S. market. Counterpoint Research analysts expect 25% to 30% of global iPhone production will come from India in 2025, up from 18% in 2024, the report added. Apple reported fiscal second-quarter revenue of $95.36 billion, surpassing analysts' expectations of $94.53 billion. The tech giant also delivered earnings of $1.65 per share for the quarter, slightly ahead of the projected $1.63 per share. iPhone sales reached $46.84 billion, up from $45.96 billion during the same period last year. Historically, Apple has sold over 60 million iPhones annually in the U.S., with approximately 80% of them manufactured in China, the report said.
