About Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc.
Lineage Cell Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel, 'off-the-shelf,' cell therapies to address unmet medical needs. Lineage's programs are based on its proprietary cell-based technology platform and associated development and manufacturing capabilities. From this platform, Lineage designs, develops, manufactures, and tests specialized human cells with anatomical and physiological functions similar or identical to cells found naturally in the human body. These cells are created by applying directed differentiation protocols to established, well-characterized, and self-renewing pluripotent cell lines. These protocols generate cells with characteristics associated with specific and desired developmental lineages. Cells derived from such lineages are transplanted into patients in an effort to replace or support cells that are absent or dysfunctional due to degenerative disease, aging, or traumatic injury, and to restore or augment the patient's functional activity. Lineage's neuroscience focused pipeline currently includes: (i) OpRegen ®, a retinal pigment epithelial cell therapy in Phase 2a development under a worldwide collaboration with Roche and Genentech, a member of the Roche Group, for the treatment of geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration; (ii) OPC1, an oligodendrocyte progenitor cell therapy in Phase 1/2a development for the treatment of spinal cord injuries; (iii) ReSonance™ (ANP1), an auditory neuronal progenitor cell therapy for the potential treatment of auditory neuropathy; (iv) PNC1, a photoreceptor neural cell therapy for the potential treatment of vision loss due to photoreceptor dysfunction or damage; and (v) RND1, a novel hypoimmune induced pluripotent stem cell line being developed under a gene editing partnership.

The $1.3 Billion Health-Tech IPO Everyone Missed--Until It Soared 21% on Day One
Omada Health (NASDAQ:OMDA) opened its first day of trading with a bangjumping 21% to $23 after pricing its IPO at $19. That move gives the digital chronic-care startup a market cap of roughly $1.3 billion. The $150 million raise was more than just well receivedinvestor demand came in more than 15x oversubscribed, with most allocations going to a concentrated group of institutional buyers. It's another sign that appetite for health-tech IPOs is heating up again. U.S. listings have raised nearly $25 billion year-to-date, and early-stage healthcare names are up an average of 18% since listing. Founded in 2011, Omada offers virtual care between doctor visitsfocused on diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and joint pain. What sets it apart? It's not chasing the GLP-1 gold rush. Instead, Omada supports people already on those drugs, helping them manage side effects, nutrition, and post-treatment maintenance. About 50,000 of its 679,000 members are on GLP-1s. CEO Sean Duffy told Bloomberg that while AI powers much of the back-end, real human interaction is what drives results. Our members tell us they want a personand I have yet to see anyone that feels accountable to ChatGPT, he said. Revenue for Q1 2025 came in just under $55 millionup from $35.1 million a year agowhile net losses narrowed by more than half to $9.4 million. That improving financial picture, combined with a clear niche in chronic care, could be what's drawing top-tier investors. Revelation Partners, Andreessen Horowitz, Fidelity, and USVP are all among the largest shareholders. The IPO was led by Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan. OMDA now trades on the Nasdaq Global Marketand it's one more sign that digital health might be staging a real comeback. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.
