Shocking sex allergy that made a 29-year-old woman infertile
A young Lithuanian woman was struggling to conceive with her partner — a rare but shocking allergy was to blame for her infertility, according to a new case report in a medical journal. For the 29-year-old patient, four years of natural attempts and two rounds of IVF proved ineffective, stumping her doctors. Since she's asthmatic with a sensitivity to mold, cat fur and dust, the woman suspected that her allergies might be a contributing factor. 3 Tests pinpointed high sensitivity to the protein Can f 5, found in dog dander and urine, which has been linked to potential sensitivities toward human semen. Prostock-studio – Subsequent blood tests revealed that she had high levels of eosinophils, a white blood cell that defends the body against allergens. In addition to her established allergies, skin tests showed allergic sensitivity to mites, pollen, insects and dogs. Tests also pinpointed high sensitivity to the protein Can f 5, found in dog dander and urine, which has been linked to potential sensitivities toward human semen. The woman shared with her allergist that she frequently experienced nasal congestion and sneezing after having unprotected sex with her partner. Using samples from her partner's semen, doctors confirmed that she has a semen allergy. 3 Seminal plasma hypersensitivity (SPH) is a rare allergic reaction to proteins in seminal fluid. RHJ – A semen allergy, also known as seminal plasma hypersensitivity (SPH), is a rare reaction to proteins found in male spermatic fluid, according to the Cleveland Clinic. SPH is recognized as a Type 1 hypersensitivity, characterized by a rapid, exaggerated immune response to an allergen, putting semen in the same category as peanuts and pet dander. For those afflicted, reactions to exposure to ejaculate run the gamut from burning, itching, redness and swelling of the vulva or vagina to hives, shortness of breath, dizziness and even anaphylaxis. The primary treatment for SPH is condoms, but in this case, the woman was determined to conceive with her partner and eschewed the latex solution. SPH does not directly cause infertility, though conception can be challenging. Treatments for would-be parents include antihistamine medication before intercourse, anti-inflammatories after and/or desensitization therapy using diluted seminal plasma. 3 SPH does not directly cause infertility, though conception can be challenging. Mark Adams – In cases where the allergic reaction is severe, some couples turn to using washed sperm free from seminal plasma in IVF treatments to divert the allergic trigger. Desensitization therapy was unavailable in Lithuania, and the patient found antihistamines before sex to be 'ineffective' at managing her reactions. During a follow-up visit three years later, the woman disclosed that she was still unable to conceive and, worse still, her allergic symptoms had expanded to include eye irritation and a burning sensation in her vulva. Her case was detailed last year in the journal Frontiers in Medicine. SPH was initially documented in 1967, when a woman was hospitalized following a 'violent allergic reaction' to sex. For the next three decades, it was assumed that SPH affected fewer than 100 women worldwide. Yet, a 1997 study led by allergist Jonathan Bernstein revealed that nearly 12% of reported postcoital symptoms could be classified as SPH. The condition is now believed to affect one in 40,000 people. The authors of the latest report said that further research is needed to understand the relationship between SPH and pregnancy. They noted that the root cause of infertility is often challenging to nail down. 'This case serves as a reminder that seemingly unrelated allergic conditions, when combined, can contribute to reproductive health challenges, warranting comprehensive evaluations,' they wrote.

These and other risks, uncertainties and factors are described in greater detail under the sections titled "Risk Factors," "Critical Accounting Estimates," "Results of Operations," "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 30, 2024 filed prior to the U.S. Domestication by our predecessor Penguin Solutions Cayman (as defined below), as updated by the risk factors contained in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Such risks, uncertainties and factors as outlined above and in such filings could cause our actual results to be materially different from such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that we make in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release. Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements contained in this press release to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date that the forward-looking statements were made. Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA. Penguin Solutions' management uses these non-GAAP measures to supplement Penguin Solutions' financial results under GAAP. Management uses these measures to analyze its operations and make decisions as to future operational plans and believes that this supplemental non-GAAP information is useful to investors in analyzing and assessing the Company's past and future operating performance. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items, such as share-based compensation expense; amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets (consisting of amortization of developed technology, customer relationships and trademarks/trade names acquired in connection with business combinations); cost of sales-related restructuring; diligence, acquisition and integration expense; redomiciliation costs; restructuring charges; impairment of goodwill; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration; (gains) losses from changes in foreign currency exchange rates; amortization of debt issuance costs; (gain) loss on extinguishment or prepayment of debt; other infrequent or unusual items and related tax effects and other tax adjustments. While amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets is excluded, the revenues from acquired companies are reflected in the Company's non-GAAP measures and these intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Management believes the presentation of operating results that exclude certain items provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses adjusted EBITDA, which represents GAAP net income (loss), adjusted for net interest expense; income tax provision (benefit); depreciation expense and amortization of intangible assets; share-based compensation expense; cost of sales-related restructuring; diligence, acquisition and integration expense; redomiciliation costs; impairment of goodwill; restructuring charges; loss on extinguishment of debt and other infrequent or unusual items. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, for our non-GAAP reporting, we reduced our long-term projected non-GAAP effective tax rate from 28% to 25%, which includes the tax impact of pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments and reflects currently available information as well as other factors and assumptions. This reduction was due to changes in the geographic earnings mix. While we expect to use this normalized non-GAAP effective tax rate through fiscal 2025, this long-term non-GAAP effective tax rate may be subject to change for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or changes to our strategy or business operations. Our GAAP effective tax rate can vary significantly from quarter to quarter based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, discrete items which are recorded in the period they occur, the tax effects of certain items of income or expense, significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or changes to our strategy or business operations. We are unable to predict the timing and amounts of these items, which could significantly impact our GAAP effective tax rate, and therefore we are unable to reconcile our forward-looking non-GAAP effective tax rate measure to our GAAP effective tax rate. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they exclude important information about Penguin Solutions' financial results, as noted above. The presentation of these adjusted amounts varies from amounts presented in accordance with GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to amounts reported by other companies. In addition, adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by, or used for, operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be used as a measure of liquidity. Investors are encouraged to review the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures" tables below. Explanatory Note Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, on June 30, 2025, we completed the redomiciliation of the parent company of our corporate group, Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company ("Penguin Solutions Cayman"), from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware in the United States, resulting in Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Penguin Solutions Delaware"), becoming our publicly traded parent company (the "U.S. Domestication"). Penguin Solutions Delaware is the successor issuer to Penguin Solutions Cayman. The U.S. Domestication was approved by the shareholders of Penguin Solutions Cayman and effected via a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Cayman Islands law, pursuant to which each ordinary share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of common stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware, and each convertible preferred share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of convertible preferred stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware. Additional information about the U.S. Domestication was included in Penguin Solutions Cayman's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2025. As used in this press release, unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, the terms "Penguin Solutions," "Company," "we," "our," "us" or similar terms (i) for periods prior to the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Cayman and its consolidated subsidiaries and (ii) for periods at or after the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Delaware and its consolidated subsidiaries. Throughout this press release, we refer to our equity securities (i) for periods prior to the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, as ordinary shares and/or convertible preferred shares and (ii) for periods at or after the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, as shares of common stock and/or shares of convertible preferred stock.

Use of Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are not historical in nature, that are predictive or that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions. These statements may include, but are not limited to, statements concerning or regarding future events and the future financial and operating performance of Penguin Solutions; statements regarding the extent and timing of and expectations regarding Penguin Solutions' future net sales and expenses; statements regarding Penguin Solutions' strategic objectives and development of our services and capabilities; statements regarding long-term effective tax rates; statements regarding the business and financial outlook for fiscal year 2025 described under 'Business Outlook' above; and statements regarding our liquidity. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often use words such as 'anticipate,' 'target,' 'expect,' 'estimate,' 'intend,' 'plan,' 'goal,' 'believe,' 'could,' and other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events, circumstances, results or aspirations and are subject to a number of significant risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside of our control, including but not limited to: global business and economic conditions, including the impact on the financial condition of our customers, particularly in challenging macroeconomic environments, growth trends in technology industries (including trends and markets related to artificial intelligence), our customer markets and various geographic regions; uncertainties in the geopolitical environment; the ability to manage our cost structure; disruptions in our operations or supply chain as a result of global pandemics or otherwise; changes in trade regulations and tariffs or adverse developments in international trade relations and agreements; changes in currency exchange rates; overall information technology spending, including changes in customer spending on our products and services; appropriations for government spending; the success of our strategic initiatives including the U.S. Domestication (as defined below) and our ability to realize the anticipated benefits thereof, our rebranding and related strategy, any existing or potential collaborations and additional investments in new products and additional capacity; acquisitions of companies or technologies and the failure to successfully integrate and operate them or customers' negative reactions to them; issues, delays or complications in integrating the operations of Stratus Technologies; failure to achieve the intended benefits of the sale of SMART Brazil and its business; the impact of and expected timing of winding down the manufacturing and discontinuing the sale of products offered through our Penguin Edge business; limitations on or changes in the availability of supply of materials and components; fluctuations in material costs; the temporary or volatile nature of pricing trends in memory or elsewhere; deterioration in customer relationships; our dependence on a select number of customers, and the timing and volume of customer orders and renewals; the impact of customer churn rates, including discounting and churn of significant customers from whom we derive a significant percent of our revenue; production or manufacturing difficulties; competitive factors; technological changes; difficulties with, or delays in, the introduction of new products; slowing or contraction of growth in the memory market, LED market or other markets in which we participate; changes to applicable tax regimes or rates; changes to the valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets, including any potential inability to realize these assets in the future; prices for the end products of our customers; strikes or labor disputes; deterioration in or loss of relations with any of our limited number of key vendors; the inability to maintain or expand government business; and the continuing availability of borrowings under revolving lines of credit or other debt arrangements and our ability to raise capital through debt or equity financings. These and other risks, uncertainties and factors are described in greater detail under the sections titled 'Risk Factors,' 'Critical Accounting Estimates,' 'Results of Operations,' 'Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk' and 'Liquidity and Capital Resources' contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 30, 2024 filed prior to the U.S. Domestication by our predecessor Penguin Solutions Cayman (as defined below), as updated by the risk factors contained in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC'). Such risks, uncertainties and factors as outlined above and in such filings could cause our actual results to be materially different from such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statements that we make in this press release speak only as of the date of this press release. Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements contained in this press release to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that may arise after the date that the forward-looking statements were made. Statement Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This press release and the accompanying tables contain the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP effective tax rate, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP weighted-average shares outstanding, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share and adjusted EBITDA. Penguin Solutions' management uses these non-GAAP measures to supplement Penguin Solutions' financial results under GAAP. Management uses these measures to analyze its operations and make decisions as to future operational plans and believes that this supplemental non-GAAP information is useful to investors in analyzing and assessing the Company's past and future operating performance. These non-GAAP measures exclude certain items, such as share-based compensation expense; amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets (consisting of amortization of developed technology, customer relationships and trademarks/trade names acquired in connection with business combinations); cost of sales-related restructuring; diligence, acquisition and integration expense; redomiciliation costs; restructuring charges; impairment of goodwill; changes in the fair value of contingent consideration; (gains) losses from changes in foreign currency exchange rates; amortization of debt issuance costs; (gain) loss on extinguishment or prepayment of debt; other infrequent or unusual items and related tax effects and other tax adjustments. While amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets is excluded, the revenues from acquired companies are reflected in the Company's non-GAAP measures and these intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Management believes the presentation of operating results that exclude certain items provides useful supplemental information to investors and facilitates the analysis of the Company's core operating results and comparison of operating results across reporting periods. Management also uses adjusted EBITDA, which represents GAAP net income (loss), adjusted for net interest expense; income tax provision (benefit); depreciation expense and amortization of intangible assets; share-based compensation expense; cost of sales-related restructuring; diligence, acquisition and integration expense; redomiciliation costs; impairment of goodwill; restructuring charges; loss on extinguishment of debt and other infrequent or unusual items. In the third quarter of fiscal 2025, for our non-GAAP reporting, we reduced our long-term projected non-GAAP effective tax rate from 28% to 25%, which includes the tax impact of pre-tax non-GAAP adjustments and reflects currently available information as well as other factors and assumptions. This reduction was due to changes in the geographic earnings mix. While we expect to use this normalized non-GAAP effective tax rate through fiscal 2025, this long-term non-GAAP effective tax rate may be subject to change for a variety of reasons, including the rapidly evolving global tax environment, significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or changes to our strategy or business operations. Our GAAP effective tax rate can vary significantly from quarter to quarter based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, discrete items which are recorded in the period they occur, the tax effects of certain items of income or expense, significant changes in our geographic earnings mix or changes to our strategy or business operations. We are unable to predict the timing and amounts of these items, which could significantly impact our GAAP effective tax rate, and therefore we are unable to reconcile our forward-looking non-GAAP effective tax rate measure to our GAAP effective tax rate. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, as they exclude important information about Penguin Solutions' financial results, as noted above. The presentation of these adjusted amounts varies from amounts presented in accordance with GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to amounts reported by other companies. In addition, adjusted EBITDA does not purport to represent cash flow provided by, or used for, operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be used as a measure of liquidity. Investors are encouraged to review the 'Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures' tables below. Explanatory Note Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, on June 30, 2025, we completed the redomiciliation of the parent company of our corporate group, Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company ('Penguin Solutions Cayman'), from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware in the United States, resulting in Penguin Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation ('Penguin Solutions Delaware'), becoming our publicly traded parent company (the 'U.S. Domestication'). Penguin Solutions Delaware is the successor issuer to Penguin Solutions Cayman. The U.S. Domestication was approved by the shareholders of Penguin Solutions Cayman and effected via a court-sanctioned scheme of arrangement under Cayman Islands law, pursuant to which each ordinary share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of common stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware, and each convertible preferred share of Penguin Solutions Cayman was exchanged for one share of convertible preferred stock of Penguin Solutions Delaware. Additional information about the U.S. Domestication was included in Penguin Solutions Cayman's definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2025. As used in this press release, unless stated otherwise or the context requires otherwise, the terms 'Penguin Solutions,' 'Company,' 'we,' 'our,' 'us' or similar terms (i) for periods prior to the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Cayman and its consolidated subsidiaries and (ii) for periods at or after the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, refer to Penguin Solutions Delaware and its consolidated subsidiaries. Throughout this press release, we refer to our equity securities (i) for periods prior to the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, as ordinary shares and/or convertible preferred shares and (ii) for periods at or after the consummation of the U.S. Domestication, as shares of common stock and/or shares of convertible preferred stock.

Thanks to the Fed's series of rate hikes in 2022 and 2023, inflation has cooled significantly from its post-pandemic highs, drawing closer to the 2% goal. This disinflation has occurred without severely impacting economic growth, suggesting the success of a soft landing. The stock market thrived in 2024, spurred by recent rate cuts (0.5% in September and 0.25% in November), and a notable surge followed Donald Trump's presidential election win in November, propelling indices to historic highs. Nonetheless, the outlook for 2025 remains clouded by potential trade policy changes and corporate tax discussions, which could impact business confidence and growth. The path forward holds both optimism and caution as new policies take shape. Want to invest in winners with rock-solid fundamentals?

Dubai hospital performs 825 robotic surgeries
Clemenceau Medical Center Dubai (CMC Dubai), has performed over 825 robotic procedures in last four years using the state-of-the-art da Vinci surgical system. CMC Dubai celebrated the achievement recently at the hospital's Dubai campus, attended by hospital leadership, surgeons, and the da Vinci robotic surgical team. Mark Adams, CEO, Clemenceau Medical Center Dubai said, 'Dubai is the city of innovation with the vision of the future. Every day, there is innovation with new developments — and in CMC, we want to be in front of that. In 2021, we introduced robotic surgery, and in the last four years, we have performed 825 robotic surgeries, which makes CMC one of the most advanced hospitals.' The hospital continues to redefine surgical excellence through the advanced integration of robotic technology across multiple specialties. As a regional leader in medical innovation, CMC Dubai has successfully deployed robotic-assisted surgery in general surgery, gynecology, urology, bariatric surgery, and more recently, orthopedics—demonstrating a truly multidisciplinary approach to precision care. 'Robotic surgery offers unmatched precision and control, allowing us to minimize complications and ensure faster patient recovery,' said Dr Walid Faraj, Consultant General Surgeon at CMC Dubai. 'The robotic system doesn't replace the surgeon — it enhances our capabilities. With 360-degree articulation and exceptional accuracy, we're able to operate in areas that would be challenging or risky using traditional techniques.' 'Robotic surgery is no longer the future — it's the present, empowering surgeons to perform safer, faster, and more accurate procedures,' said Dr Abdul Kader Weiss, Specialist General & Laparoscopic Surgeon at CMC Dubai. 'What once required large incisions and long hospital stays can now be done through tiny ports, with the robot as an extension of the surgeon's hand. At CMC, we are proud to be at the forefront of this transformation, aligning with the UAE's ambition to lead in medical innovation.' The result is a transformative impact on both clinical outcomes and patient experience. Robotic-assisted procedures typically involve smaller incisions, reduced blood loss, less post-operative pain, and significantly shorter hospital stays. Many patients are discharged within 24 to 48 hours, returning to normal activities more quickly and with fewer complications. CMC Dubai was among the first hospitals in the UAE to adopt robotic surgery and continues to set benchmarks in this domain. The center's commitment to innovation is matched by its focus on patient safety, outcome-driven care, and ongoing investment in the latest surgical technologies. 'Our goal is to expand what is surgically possible,' added Dr. Faraj. 'With robotic systems, we are performing more complex surgeries with greater confidence and control, while continuously improving patient satisfaction and recovery time.'
