  33.                  <span class="legendSpanClass">SAN FRANCISCO</span>, <span class="legendSpanClass">Oct. 14, 2025</span> /PRNewswire/ &#8212; A new securities class action lawsuit has been filed against <b>KinderCare Learning Companies, Inc. (NYSE: KLC)</b> and its executives, alleging the company misled investors during its <b>October 2024 Initial Public Offering (IPO)</b>. The lawsuit, styled <i>Gollapalli v. KinderCare Learning Companies, Inc., et al.</i>, seeks to represent investors who purchased KLC common stock in or traceable to the company&#8217;s IPO. </p>

  41. <p>The lawsuit claims that KinderCare&#8217;s IPO documents painted a false and misleading picture of the company&#8217;s operations. While the company described its services as providing &#8220;the highest quality care possible&#8221; in a &#8220;safe, nurturing and engaging environment,&#8221; the complaint <span><span class="" title="">alleges</span></span> these statements were contradicted by a documented history of serious safety and care failures that were concealed from investors.</p>
  42. <p>Hagens Berman urges KinderCare investors who suffered substantial losses to <a href="https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4531879-1&amp;h=1176025557&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hbsslaw.com%2Finvestor-fraud%2Fklc&amp;a=contact+the+firm+now" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">contact the firm now</a>.</p>

  46.                  <b>Federal Subsidies and Unforeseen Risks</b>
  47.                </p>
  48. <p>The lawsuit highlights that <b>more than 30%</b> of KinderCare&#8217;s revenues come from federal subsidies, making the <span><span class="" title="">alleged</span></span> omissions particularly significant. According to the complaint, the company&#8217;s failure to disclose a history of <b>child neglect and harm</b> exposed it to a material, undisclosed risk of legal and regulatory action that could threaten this major revenue source.</p>
  49. <p>Since the IPO, KinderCare&#8217;s stock has performed poorly, dropping from its offering price of <b>$24 per share</b> to lows near <b>$9 per share</b>. The lawsuit attributes this decline to the market&#8217;s realization that the company&#8217;s positive statements were unfounded.</p>

  51.                  <b>Hagens Berman&#8217;s Investor Investigation</b>
  52.                </p>
  53. <p>National plaintiffs&#8217; rights firm Hagens Berman is investigating these claims and encourages investors who purchased KLC stock in the IPO and suffered losses to consider their legal options. The firm is focused on the extent to which the company&#8217;s <span><span class="" title="">alleged</span></span> history of safety and care failures was concealed from the public, leading to an artificially inflated IPO price and subsequent investor losses.</p>
  54. <p>&#8220;Our investigation is focused on the fundamental disconnect between how KinderCare presented itself to investors in its IPO and the <span><span class="" title="">alleged</span></span> reality of its operations. The lawsuit claims investors were sold on a promise of &#8216;high-quality care&#8217; while being kept in the dark about a history of safety and neglect issues. We are focusing on whether this <span><span class="" title="">alleged</span></span> failure to disclose key risks to the business and revenue streams constitutes a violation of the U.S. securities laws,&#8221; said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.</p>
  55. <p>If you invested in KinderCare and have substantial losses, or have knowledge that may assist the firm&#8217;s investigation, <a href="https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=4531879-1&amp;h=1032675702&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hbsslaw.com%2Finvestor-fraud%2Fklc&amp;a=submit+your+losses+now" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">submit your losses now</a> »</p>

  98. <p>Jointly organised by NBA Cares and Sands Cares, the community impact week fostered compassion and interaction through a series of inclusive and engaging activities. These included a basketball exchange at a local school, distributing boxed lunches in the community, a community basketball carnival, and the &#8220;Her Time to Play&#8221; clinic. NBA Legends such as Mitch Richmond, Tim Hardaway, Yao Ming, Shawn Marion, and Deron Williams, alongside current players from the Phoenix Suns and Brooklyn Nets, used basketball as a bridge to extend NBA Cares&#8217; community spirit to Macao, creating a positive impact across the city.</p>
  99. <p>Patrick Dumont, president and chief operating officer of Las Vegas Sands Corp., said: &#8220;As far back as the opening of Sands Macao in 2004, our company has placed service to the Macao community among our top priorities. Over the course of two decades now, our dedicated team member volunteers have given their time and energy to make a meaningful difference in this community.</p>
  100. <p>&#8220;NBA Cares and Sands Cares have been outstanding partners for this five-day community impact initiative during The NBA China Games 2025. We are excited to see the positive effect in the community, especially on local youth, children, and those in need. We appreciate all who participated and gave their support.&#8221;</p>
  101. <p>Dr. Wilfred Wong, executive vice chairman of Sands China Ltd., said: &#8220;We are thrilled to have partnered with NBA Cares to bring the community impact week to life. Not only did we invite NBA Legends and players to engage directly with the Macao community, sharing skills with local students and with rural coaches and students from Guizhou and Inner Mongolia, but we also distributed boxed lunches to the underprivileged and connected closely with members of social service organisations. These activities and more fully demonstrated the powerful impact that sports-driven philanthropy can have on our community.</p>
  102. <p>&#8220;We extend heartfelt thanks to NBA Cares for their strong support, the passionate participation of NBA Legends and players, the enthusiastic cooperation of local service organisations and schools, and the wholehearted involvement of students and teachers from Macao and those who travelled from the Chinese Mainland. We also express deep gratitude to our Sands Cares Ambassadors and other volunteers for their selfless contributions. The collective efforts of all who were involved made this week more impactful and meaningful. Looking ahead, Sands China will continue to make use of its resources to give back to the Macao community, taking concrete actions to care for society and help more people feel the warmth of community support.&#8221;</p>

  104.                  <b>Events of the &#8220;NBA Cares x Sands Cares Community Impact Week&#8221;</b>
  105.                </p>
  106. <p>The community impact week kicked off Oct. 8 with a youth basketball exchange, where NBA Legend Mitch Richmond and NBA coaches provided basketball training and mentorship to 200 students from Lou Hau High School, together with 12 coaches and students from NBA Cares&#8217; &#8220;Her Time to Play&#8221; initiative who travelled to Macao from rural Guizhou and Inner Mongolia. Richmond and Dr. Wong donated basketballs and training equipment to the school on behalf of NBA and Sands China, supporting the continued development of its basketball programme. The event concluded with an exciting five-on-five skills challenge.</p>

Phoenix Suns and Brooklyn Nets players led a basketball clinic for over 60 participants, including students from Lou Hau High School, Sheng Kung Hui Choi Kou School (Macau), and Yuet Wah College Macau, and the &#8220;Her Time to Play&#8221; coaches and students.

They shared their training tips and experience with girls&#8217; basketball team members from Pui Ching Middle School Macau and Keng Peng School, and with the &#8220;Her Time to Play&#8221; students and coaches, encouraging them to pursue their dreams. The event culminated in an exciting five-on-five friendly skills challenge, marking a perfect conclusion to the community impact week.</p>

  112. <p>More than 300 volunteers, including Sands Cares Ambassadors, served the attendees of community impact week. In recognition of their selfless dedication, Sands China will present each volunteer with a certificate of appreciation.</p>
  113. <p>Sands China established the Sands Cares Ambassador Programme in 2009, providing an organised platform for team members to continue serving the community. During the programme&#8217;s 15th anniversary last year, Sands China called on all sectors of society to answer the call to &#8220;#BeMyVolunteer&#8221; and join the company&#8217;s effort to encourage more people to volunteer with Macao&#8217;s social service organisations.</p>

  251. <p>Bonn, Germany, Oct.  14, 2025  (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Horse gram from India and Nigeria’s ancient grain fonio are among the dazzling variety of opportunity crops singled out for special attention in the coming years by over 250 farmers, scientists and policymakers across seven countries. This marks the successful completion of the crucial first step in the work of the <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=faDFNk4sjL6EOWT1L5VmnVe42IszYkS81ZYxZ7FGGItT1MzZcoy8XqPbiJqXqg9LvIcookEoBd7axmX8io36zl3sNGbNSUwIAqfAqckc8gRiDFMR0dqjRvO-MQc6gvhdoU-SuDazkF7V74ySo74fDtwi89aKDhqkgy3pC7yLtyL4rdCq4ycs9t45Huml1BVy" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="Power of Diversity Funding Facility">Power of Diversity Funding Facility</a>, an ambitious global initiative launched by the Crop Trust earlier this year.</p>
  252. <p>Backed by €10 million from Germany through KfW Development Bank and €2 million from Ireland via its Department of Foreign Affairs, the Funding Facility will promote the conservation, production and consumption of high-potential opportunity crops. These plants are resilient, nutrient-rich and deeply tied to local traditions – yet overlooked by research and investment. Until now.</p>
  253. <p>Across the participating countries, national partners convened inclusive dialogues that brought together farmers, researchers and policymakers to decide which crops should take center stage. This process was supported by the Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, which brought to bear decades of expertise on neglected and underutilized crops, particularly in Africa.</p>

Through ABX-001’s capability to systemically activate both innate (immediate) and adaptive (memory) immune responses with a single administration, Abalos aims to reach new levels of immune system engagement and address current limitations in immunotherapy.</p>

Abalos developed ABX-001 as therapeutic candidate by optimizing a non-lytic arenavirus strain using strategic selections of specific mutations for immunostimulatory and anti-tumoral properties, including high tumor-tropism and minimal replication in healthy cells. Importantly, ABX-001’s mode of action is characterized by persistent and sustained replication in cancerous as well as antigen-presenting cells without destroying them. This results in exceptional induction of effector T-cells and actively guides immune cells into the tumor. This novel, non-oncolytic approach for systemic use is designed to induce a targeted, effective, and durable anti-cancer activity against primary tumors and tumor cells that have migrated to other regions of the body, so called metastases.</p>
  320. <p align="justify">“The publication in <em>Cell Reports</em> <em>Medicine</em> underscores the potential of our novel anti-cancer approach as a promising alternative for patients who face the limitations of current immunotherapies,” said Jörg Vollmer, CSO at Abalos. “By safely engaging all major lymphatic organs in a coordinated, body-wide attack against tumors, we aim to overcome key challenges such as immune evasion of cancer cells, inadequate T cell activation, and tumor heterogeneity. The strong safety profile and robust anti-cancer activity demonstrated across a range of clinically relevant solid tumor models provide a solid foundation for the clinical development of ABX-001, with the first-in-human trial expected to begin soon.”</p>
  321. <p align="justify">In a variety of murine solid tumor models, ABX-001 exhibited strong anti-tumoral efficacy by inducing the expansion of tumor-specific T cells and immune-activating cytokines such as IFN-γ. Notably, mice with complete tumor remission upon systemic ABX-001 treatment were protected from tumor cell re-challenge, suggesting long-lasting anti-tumoral immunity. The candidate demonstrated a favorable safety profile, with minimal viral replication in healthy tissues and no severe disease symptoms in arenavirus-susceptible mice. The results were replicated in non-human primates highly sensitive to wildtype arenaviruses. Here, treatment with ABX-001 led to substantially increased levels of immunostimulatory cytokines and chemokines as well as significantly increased expansion of monocytes, CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells. The CD4<sup>+</sup>/CD8<sup>+</sup> ratio decreased after ABX-001 application, reflecting the strong priming of cytotoxic T cells triggered by the candidate. Despite this strong immune activation, no adverse effects were observed at any dose level or timepoint, demonstrating a highly favorable safety profile.</p>
  322. <p align="justify">Data on the development of ABX-001 and its demonstrated proprietary anti-tumoral efficacy in a range of <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo </em>models will be presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2025.</p>
