<p><strong>To potentially include adolescents and antibody persistence up to two years</strong></p>
<p><strong>Saint Herblain (France), November 26, 2024</strong> – <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=1rs1Klfm-mU5KCl7bAFRCQOpUX6gMkfNIdTlizK0PeNkb-Q8lBe3G2IuZytcl17gFtUl_ySe1FJjcOg7PGMvFQ==">Valneva SE</a> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VALN#NASDAQ">VALN</a>, PARIS:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLA#PARIS">VLA</a>), a specialty vaccine company, today announced that it has submitted a label extension application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to potentially extend the use of its chikungunya vaccine IXCHIQ&#xAE;, which is currently approved in adults, to adolescents aged 12 to 17 years. The application also includes adding the two-year antibody persistence data to the product label, which is a key differentiator for IXCHIQ&#xAE;. This FDA application follows the submission of label extension applications to the European Medicines Agency (EMA) and Health Canada two months ago1.</p>
<p>These label extension applications are based on positive adolescent Phase 3 data, which the Company reported in May 20242. These data showed that a single-dose vaccination with IXCHIQ&#xAE; induces a high and sustained immune response in 99.1% of adolescents, and that the vaccine was generally well tolerated. <i>The Lancet Infectious Diseases, </i>a world leading infectious diseases journal, also recently published <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=KFV2vmbE-gp0MSTaHy9FcQSwIDtZIwrqMwsJ3QkNqL7cLCJ5Ii_KYGKArVX1WeHK9p44MUAnR26Ct9H0iDsjkjpsXdiNBRtrJ6H9HHqm1asq4JdXCcuYcnzn89E8PEz92sPZT3lluCmH1n-Uq4AWN-JddP2IEIF8PcZFIuH_aec=">an article</a> showing that the vaccine was well tolerated in adolescents aged 12 to 17 years 28 days after a single injection, regardless of previous CHIKV infection.</p>
<p>In addition to the adolescent data, the U.S. and Canadian label extension applications included IXCHIQ&#xAE;'s long-term antibody persistence data, which showed that the vaccine's immune response was sustained by 97% of participants after 24 months and was equally durable in younger and older adults3. These persistence data were already included in the initial EMA filing. The Company expects to publish 36-month persistence data in the coming weeks.</p>

<p>Sinegal wasn't there to offer a magic fix – he simply explained Costco's secret sauce. The key? Value. Costco kept prices incredibly low by cutting unnecessary costs, sticking to a strict 15% markup and treating suppliers fairly to secure great deals.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Sinegal told Bezos, "The membership fee is a one-time pain, but it's reinforced every time customers walk in and see forty-seven-inch televisions that are two hundred dollars less than anyplace else.&#8221; That trust kept customers returning, knowing they'd always find great deals.</p>
<p>Bezos took this advice seriously. Days after the meeting, he called a team meeting at Amazon to discuss the company's pricing strategy – or lack thereof.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The goal? Make Amazon synonymous with lower prices. According to The New York Times, Bezos famously said, "There are two kinds of companies: those that raise prices and those that work to lower them. We are going to be the second, full-stop."</p>
<p>Soon after, Amazon slashed prices on books, music and videos – its flagship products – by as much as 30%. It worked. By the end of 2001, Amazon posted its first profitable quarter. "We had a great Q4," Bezos told Fox News in January 2002. "What really drove it was lower prices for customers."</p>

<p>The Costco connection didn't stop there. Inspired by Costco's membership model, Amazon launched Prime in 2005. It wasn't just about free shipping but creating compelling value that customers couldn't resist.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Bezos described Prime in a 2016 shareholder letter: &#8220;We want Prime to be such a good value, you'd be irresponsible not to be a member." Today, Prime has over 200 million members worldwide, generating more than $35 billion annually.</p>

Take Costco's $1.50 hot dog combo, for instance – it's stayed the same price for decades. According to former Costco CEO Craig Jelinek, Sinegal once joked, "If you raise the [hot dog] price, I will kill you.&#8221; Similarly, Amazon reinvests heavily in its logistics and technology to keep costs low and deliver on its customer-first promise.</p>

<p>The <strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/fintech-awards">Benzinga Fintech Deal Day and Awards</a></strong>, held last week in New York City, served as a hub for financial technology professionals to exchange ideas and growth strategies. <strong>Mathew Cashman</strong>, principal of investor education at the <strong>Options Clearing Corporation</strong> (OCC) and instructor at the <strong>Options Industry Council</strong> (OIC) spoke about the tools and strategies Fintech firms can use to expand their reach and engage with broader audiences.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Reaching Larger Audiences in the Digital Age</h3>
<p>Cashman emphasized the value of virtual platforms in connecting with traders and investors. &#8220;When you use online formats, you can reach a four-digit audience simultaneously, allowing more people to engage without the barriers of travel or location,&#8221; he explained. He noted that this approach creates an opportunity for companies to gain exposure and build meaningful relationships with users more cost-effectively than traditional in-person events.</p>
<p>These tools also benefit traders by providing resources to enhance their decision-making capabilities. Cashman highlighted how OCC's ecosystem includes charting platforms and advertising networks, which allow companies to integrate their offerings with tools that empower self-directed investors.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Insights on Building and Expanding Fintech Products</h3>
<p>Cashman shared his expertise in launching and expanding Fintech products during the event. Reflecting on his years in the industry, he outlined practical steps for companies looking to strengthen their presence in the financial technology space. He discussed the importance of focusing on clear objectives, creating user-centric products, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.</p>
<p>&#8220;Building and expanding products requires an understanding of what users need and how to deliver that effectively,&#8221; Cashman said. He also addressed the role of collaboration, encouraging attendees to connect with ethical partners who share similar values.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Collaboration Drives Industry Growth</h3>
<p>Cashman emphasized how events like Benzinga's Fintech Deal Day create opportunities for meaningful collaborations. By fostering conversations between companies and potential partners, the event provides a platform for building relationships that benefit all parties involved.</p>
<p>&#8220;We focus on helping our partners connect with audiences in impactful and ethical ways,&#8221; he said. Cashman underscored the importance of transparency and compliance in creating long-term value for businesses and consumers.</p>
<p>The event&#8217;s discussions highlighted the importance of leveraging technology and collaboration to meet the evolving demands of the financial technology industry. Cashman's remarks gave attendees actionable steps for driving engagement and building sustainable solutions.</p>
