American Marconi Wireless News - Zomedica Announces License & Supply Agreement with Cresilon Inc. to Market and Sell Vetigel(R) Hemostatic Gel in the Animal Health Market

Zomedica Corp. (NYSE American:ZOM) ("Zomedica" or the "Company"), a veterinary health company offering point-of-care diagnostics and therapeutic products for equine and companion animals, today announced that it had entered into a license and supply agreement with Cresilon, Inc. to market and sell the Vetigel^® hemostatic gel product line on an exclusive basis in the United States and on a non-exclusive basis outside the United States.

Under the terms of the agreement, Zomedica will assume responsibility for supplying U.S. customers and will collaborate with Cresilon to support customers outside the U.S. This partnership enables Zomedica to further its mission of delivering innovative solutions that enhance patient care and operational efficiency for veterinary practitioners.

Vetigel is a groundbreaking, plant-based formula designed to stop bleeding rapidly when applied directly to the source. Unlike traditional methods, Vetigel halts bleeding in seconds without becoming incorporated into the clot. The product has been validated in clinical studies reported in white papers, demonstrating its ability to save time during surgical procedures and significantly reduce blood loss in patients. Key applications include:

• Surgical Procedures: Effective in controlling bleeding during soft organ biopsies and excisions;

• Dental Applications: Successfully used to manage bleeding in routine and advanced dental procedures;

• Emergency Care: Proven efficacy in treating venous and arterial bleeds; and

• Liver Biopsy: Demonstrated to stop bleeding faster than competitive hemostatic agents.

"We are excited to add Vetigel^® to Zomedica's portfolio of innovative veterinary products," said Kevin Klass, Senior Vice President of Sales at Zomedica. "Vetigel's ability to rapidly stop bleeding across a variety of procedures makes it an invaluable tool for veterinarians, enabling them to enhance patient outcomes while improving surgical efficiency. This partnership with Cresilon allows us to bring cutting-edge solutions to veterinary professionals in the U.S. and beyond."

Greg Blair, Zomedica's Senior Vice President, Business Development & Strategic Planning, added, "This new venture with Cresilon is another way Zomedica stays true to our mission of enhancing the quality of care for pets, increasing pet parent satisfaction, and improving the workflow, cash flow, and profitability of veterinary practices. By bringing innovative solutions like Vetigel to market, we are empowering veterinarians to deliver better outcomes and experiences for their patients and clients."

"This partnership with Zomedica is ideal for the future of Vetigel," said Joe Landolina, CEO of Cresilon. "Zomedica's established reputation, robust field sales team, and commitment to veterinary excellence make them the perfect match for expanding the reach of this revolutionary product. Together, we look forward to making Vetigel an essential tool for veterinary practices worldwide."

Vetigel's versatility and proven efficacy make it a game-changer for veterinary practices, addressing critical needs in both routine and emergency settings. Zomedica looks forward to expanding access to this exciting technology to more customers leveraging our existing field sales team, frequent trade show programs, and weekly continuing education programs.
