Great Elm Group Expands Real Estate Enterprise Launching Monomoy Construction Services
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla., Feb. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Great Elm Group, Inc. ('we,' 'us,' 'our,' 'GEG' or 'Great Elm,') (NASDAQ: GEG), an alternative asset manager, today announced the formation of Monomoy Construction Services, LLC ('MCS') upon acquisition of Greenfield CRE's ('Greenfield's') assets. The result will combine the construction talent from Greenfield with civil engineering and land planning talent at Monomoy BTS Construction Management to form MCS, which will operate adjacent to Monomoy's industrial asset management business Monomoy CRE, LLC ('MCRE') (together with MCS, 'Monomoy'), to provide an integrated business model in the industrial real estate market. With this acquisition, Monomoy will offer a full-service suite of project management, procurement, construction management, asset management, market analysis and feasibility for its industrial real estate tenants.
Strategic Considerations
The transaction is part of GEG's strategy to grow its existing real estate franchise by bringing Greenfield, Monomoy's existing general contractor partner, in-house. Greenfield shares a seasoned relationship with Monomoy and has detailed knowledge of Monomoy's development projects and tenant expectations. This unique opportunity enhances the overall Monomoy enterprise in procurement and construction management expertise, enabling the business to propel its focus on construction opportunities for its existing industrial tenant base. The acquisition enables increased fee revenue from construction consulting and build-to-suit projects, while lowering in-house execution costs, allowing competitive pricing to further drive business growth.
Management Commentary
Jason Reese, Executive Chairman of GEG, said, 'The Monomoy Construction Services transaction represents a successful outcome for Great Elm's shareholders. This marks the latest in a series of strategic actions taken to enhance our focus and capabilities across our industrial real estate platform.'
Chris Macri, President of MCRE, stated, 'We welcome the Greenfield team as trusted colleagues with whom we have worked extensively. As a combined platform, we intend to pursue a robust pipeline of construction opportunities for our tenants, leading the way for creative real estate solutions in the industrial real estate and development market.'
Key Hire
MCS hires Brandon Finomore, the former President of Greenfield CRE, to lead its construction services business. Mr. Finomore joins Monomoy with over 20 years of real estate development expertise, managing and directing projects across the US ranging from $500,000 to $30,000,000. Licensed as a general contractor with the ability to run projects nationally, Mr. Finomore will work alongside the President of Monomoy, Chris Macri, to carry out Monomoy's strategic construction initiatives. As part of the transaction, GEG has awarded 276,182 restricted shares of GEG stock to Mr. Finomore that will vest on the 5th year anniversary of the grant date. These restricted shares were granted as a material inducement to Mr. Finomore's entry into employment with MCS, an affiliate of GEG, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).

Heartflow raises $316.7 million in US IPO as medtech listings attempt comeback
By Ateev Bhandari and Pritam Biswas (Reuters) -Medical technology firm Heartflow said on Thursday it had raised $316.7 million in its U.S. initial public offering, setting the stage for its Nasdaq debut in another test of investor appetite for medical tech companies. The Mountain View, California-based company sold 16.67 million shares at $19 each, compared with a targeted range of $17 to $18 apiece. It upsized its offering and raised the proposed range earlier this week reflecting strong demand. The IPO valued the company at $1.54 billion. U.S. IPOs have picked up pace in a much-awaited recovery, as solid tech earnings and progress on trade deals have helped restore investor confidence. Strong recent debuts mark a reversal from early April, when uncertainty around U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs paused dealmaking. Heartflow's stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq on Friday under the "HTFL" ticker symbol. The closing of the offering is expected on August 11. J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley and Piper Sandler are the lead underwriters for the offering. Following software firm Figma's blowout debut last week, analysts expect companies with a compelling growth story to be welcomed by the public markets. "We expect Heartflow to be well received at launch, especially following Figma's breakout success, which has helped reset sentiment toward high-growth names," IPOX CEO Josef Schuster said. Bain Capital-backed Heartflow leverages AI to create 3D models of the heart via a single specialized scan, improving detection and treatment of coronary artery disease (CAD). As AI gains widespread acceptance, companies embedding it into workflows for meaningful use cases are catching investor attention, with the technology powering gains across various Big Tech businesses. Heartflow's revenue grew 39% for the quarter ended March 31 from a year earlier. Its platform to detect CAD was used in 132,000 patients in 2024. Sign in to access your portfolio

ROSEN, TOP RANKED GLOBAL COUNSEL, Encourages Capricor Therapeutics, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action
NEW YORK, Aug. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Capricor Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAPR) between October 9, 2024 and July 10, 2025, both dates inclusive (the 'Class Period'), of the important September 15, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline. SO WHAT: If you purchased Capricor securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Capricor class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than September 15, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants provided investors with material information concerning deramiocel, Capricor's lead cell therapy candidate drug for the treatment of cardiomyopathy associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Defendants' statements included, among other things, Capricor's ability to obtain a Biologics License Application (BLA) for deramiocel from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Further, defendants provided these overwhelmingly positive statements to investors while, at the same time, disseminating false and misleading statements and/or concealing material adverse facts concerning its four-year safety and efficacy data from its Phase 2 HOPE-2 trial study of deramiocel. The lawsuit alleges this caused shareholders to purchase Capricor's securities at artificially inflated prices. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. To join the Capricor class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff. Follow us for updates on LinkedIn: on Twitter: or on Facebook: Attorney Advertising. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. ——————————- Contact Information: Laurence Rosen, Esq. Phillip Kim, Esq.
