The Special Committee received a fairness opinion from an independent financial advisor and determined the transaction is fair to, and in the best interests of, Crown's unaffiliated public stockholders.

AVITA Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCEL#NASDAQ">RCEL</a>, ASX: AVH))), a leading therapeutic acute wound care company delivering transformative solutions, today highlighted data presented by researchers at the British Burn Association (BBA) Annual Meeting demonstrating reduced length of hospital stay among burn patients treated with RECELL&#xAE;. The session, titled The Clinical Impact of Skin Cell Suspension Autograft from a National Registry Perspective, represents the largest real-world analysis of skin cell suspension autograft (commercially known as RECELL) to date.
The patented RECELL technology uses a small sample of a patient's own skin to produce Spray-On Skin&#x2122; Cells, an autologous cell suspension that supports wound healing throughout the wound bed. Compared to traditional skin grafting, RECELL requires significantly less donor skin and offers a range of clinical benefits, including less pain at the donor site, faster healing, improved outcomes, and fewer procedures. These advantages contribute to shorter hospital stays and associated cost savings.

<h2>Unveiling the Story Behind ARM Holdings</h2>
Arm Holdings is the intellectual property owner and developer of the ARM architecture, which is used in 99% of the world's smartphone CPU cores, and it also has high market share in other battery-powered devices like wearables, tablets, or sensors. Arm licenses its architecture for a fee, offering different types of licenses depending on the flexibility the customer needs. Customers like Apple or Qualcomm buy architectural licenses, which allow them to modify the architecture and add or delete instructions to tailor the chips to their specific needs. Other clients directly buy off-the-shelf designs from Arm. Both off-the-shelf and architectural customers pay a royalty fee per chip shipped.

Genuine Marketing Group Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GMGZ#OTC">GMGZ</a>) announced the beta launch of its blockchain-based platform ZPTAG for the cannabis industry, partnering with Ignite Dispensary to pilot the technology across select locations in Wisconsin.
The announcement was made Monday morning during the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis-conference">Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference</a> in Chicago, one of the industry's leading gatherings of investors, operators and executives.
Beginning June 20, the beta program will cover nine SKUs, including pre-rolls, gummies and infused snack mixes, all tagged with unique identifiers enabling full lifecycle tracking. The ZPTAG platform provides seed-to-sale transparency, offering real-time access to product certifications, lab results and logistics milestones through a mobile application.
According to GMGZ, the system is designed to support government compliance while enhancing supply chain visibility and building consumer trust. It expands upon the company's prior work in Carbon Intensity (CI) scoring and now applies similar principles to reward responsible operators in the regulated cannabis space.
"We are pleased to be launching our cannabis efforts with Ignite Dispensary and working closely with our longtime partner and industry expert, Tim Frey," said Chuck Chastain, CEO of Genuine Marketing Group. "His attention to detail and wealth of cannabis knowledge is indispensable for GMG. I can't think of a better way to ensure ZPTAG delivers for the industry."
Ignite Dispensary founder Timothy Frey said the partnership reflects his company's commitment to transparency and consumer confidence. "ZPTAG lets us take that to the next level by giving you an easy way to see exactly what you are getting and why we stand behind it," said Frey. "It is just one more way we are working to elevate the experience and continue building trust with our community."
The beta will initially launch across Ignite's Wisconsin operations, with plans to expand to other hemp-derived and cannabis products, including THC-infused beverages, tinctures and flower. A broader national rollout is expected in late 2025 and early 2026.

Barclays Initiates Coverage On Ryder System with Overweight Rating, Announces Price Target of $190

In a call hosted today, June 9, 2025, PolyPid Ltd. unveiled highly successful topline results from its SHIELD II Phase 3 trial of D-PLEX100 for preventing surgical site infections (SSIs) in abdominal colorectal surgery patients with large incisions.
The double-blind trial of 798 patients achieved statistical significance across all endpoints, demonstrating a 38% reduction in the primary composite endpoint and a remarkable 58% reduction in SSI rates from 9.5% to 3.8% compared to standard care alone.
These results position D-PLEX100 among the most effective prophylactic interventions for this indication, addressing a significant unmet medical need that costs the U.S. healthcare system up to $10 billion annually.
With FDA Fast Track, Breakthrough Therapy, and QIDP designations already secured, PolyPid plans a pre-NDA meeting by end-2025 followed by NDA submission in early 2026, while these compelling Phase 3 results are expected to accelerate ongoing global partnership discussions for commercialization.
