Co-Diagnostics and Cosara Advance Ebola Pcr Test Development and Co-Dx Pcr Point-Of-Care Platform Capabilities Co-Diagnostics, Inc. announced continued progress in its Ebola PCR development program with joint venture CoSara Diagnostics Pvt. Ltd. The program includes development of both a pan-Ebola assay designed to rapidly detect multiple ebolavirus species and a multiplex assay capable of differentiating among Sudan, Taï Forest, Zaire, and Bundibugyo ebolaviruses currently associated with outbreaks in Central Africa. This dual-assay strategy is intended to provide flexibility in supporting outbreak response efforts, including those of potential NGO partners, subject to future development, validation, regulatory review, and deployment requirements. The Ebola PCR assay workflow configurations also being developed to support point-of-care environments for the Co-Dx PCR point-of-care platform would represent the first blood-based pathogen assay designed for use on the Co-Dx PCR Pro. This would significantly expand the platform's capabilities beyond swab-based infectious disease testing and increase the range of potential applications that may be addressed through future menu expansion. Many of the world's most serious infectious diseases are identified using blood samples, and expanding the platform to support those applications would represent an important step forward for Co-Diagnostics. The ability to bring rapid, high-quality PCR testing closer to patients, whether through respiratory, tuberculosis, HPV, or blood-borne disease applications, supports the broader goal of making molecular diagnostics more accessible in both developed and emerging markets. The Co-Dx PCR platform (including the PCR Home, PCR Pro, mobile app, and all associated tests) is subject to review by the FDA and/or other regulatory bodies and is not yet available for sale.

Co-Diagnostics Performs Analysis of Influenza Co-Primers®? to Confirm Reactivity Against Flu A H3n2 Mutation Co-Diagnostics, Inc. announced that it has performed an in silico analysis of the Co-Primers®? used in its Logix Smart®? ABC test for the detection of influenza A, influenza B and COVID-19. The analysis showed a high homology against 3,900 influenza sequences, confirming comparable reactivity of the primer sets against the influenza A H3N2 subclade K. According to the World Health Organization, seasonal influenza causes approximately 3-5 million cases of severe illness annually, resulting in 290,000-650,000 respiratory fatalities. This year's flu vaccine is observed with subclade K (or "J.2.4.1"), which has limited natural immunity within communities. influenza A subtype H3N2 has historically been associated with higher rates of hospitalization and death, and preliminary data has already linked subclade K to countries like Japan and the United Kingdom experiencing earlier than usual flu seasons in 2025, following Australia reporting a record flu season. In November 2020, the Logix Smart ABC test received CE-marking for the simultaneous detection of and differentiation of influenza A, influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The in silico analysis concluded that there is no concern that any emerging H3N2 strains would affect the test kit's sensitivity. The Logix Smart ABC test is intended for use by qualified and trained clinical laboratory personnel. In November 2025, the Company announced that it had initiated clinical performance testing for the Co-Dx PCR Flu A/B, COVID-19, RSV point-of-care upper-respiratory multiplex test, which is intended to support a submission to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for 510(k) clearance. Similar to the Logix Smart test, the flu A targets in this test are not expected to be affected by H3N2 subclades K. This test is not approved or cleared by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA). It is for export only and is not for sale in the United States.

Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Performs Analysis of Chikungunya Co-Primers to Confirm Reactivity Against Known Virus Strains Co-Diagnostics, Inc. announced that it has performed an in silico analysis of the primers sets used in its Co-Primers-based PCR tests for the detection of chikungunya virus (or "CHIKV"), showing a high homology against over 1,200 CHIKV sequences and confirming reactivity of the CHIKV primers against known recent strains of the virus. As of July, there have been nearly 250,000 cases and 90 deaths from CHIKV worldwide, primarily concentrated in South America, but also found in countries across Africa, Asia and Europe. An estimated 5.6 billion people currently live in at-risk areas across 119 countries as warming trends contribute to expanded regions for the mosquitoes that can carry CHIKV. Chikungunya imposes a significant economic burden, especially in low- and middle-income countries. Long-term consequences for the patient are also common, particularly joint pain that can be debilitating, with 40% of people contracting chronic chikungunya arthritis, leading to the pain lasting months or even years according to the Mayo Clinic. Less common complications include auto-immune disorders and chronic fatigue. The Co-Diagnostics Logix Smart®? ZDC Test received CE-marking regulatory clearance in 2019 to be sold as an in vitro diagnostic ("IVD") for the viruses that cause Zika, dengue and chikungunya. The test functions via the Company's patented Co-Primers technology and a single-step reverse transcriptase real-time PCR process to detect and differentiate between the viral RNA of Zika, dengue (all 4 serotypes), and chikungunya in blood drawn from patients. It is available for markets that accept CE-marking as valid regulatory clearance, pending local product registration requirements. Differentiating CHIKV cases from other infections with similar symptoms, such as dengue, helps physicians avoid administering certain pain and fever medications that can increase risk of bleeding and be life-threatening in patients with severe dengue infections. As an arbovirus spread by mosquitoes, accurate diagnosis is also vital to indicate to an infected patient that they should take additional precautions to limit contact with mosquitoes, to prevent further spread of the virus. Co-Dx also offers its Co-Primers-based environmental use only Vector Smart VZDC Test to mosquito abatement districts ("MADs"), as part of its suite of vector control tests used by around 30 MADs across approximately 20 U.S. states to identify pathogens such as Zika, dengue, chikungunya, West Nile virus, St. Louis encephalitis, and Eastern and Western equine encephalitis in mosquito pools. The Vector Smart VZDC Test CHIKV primer sets are the same as those used in the Logix Smart ZDC test. Co-Diagnostics Indian joint venture CoSara Diagnostics Pvt Ltd. received clearance in October 2021 by Indian authorities to manufacture and sell its SaraGene Dengue and Chikungunya Multiplex RT-PCR test as an IVD, which is also built on the Company's Co-Primers platform technology.

Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Wins Dismissal of Class Action Lawsuit Co-Diagnostics, Inc. announced that on March 4, 2025, the Securities & Governance Litigation Team at BakerHostetler, the legal firm retained to represent the Company, won complete dismissal on summary judgment of a Section 10(b) securities class action that had been pending against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Utah. On June 15, 2020, Plaintiff Gelt Trading Ltd. filed a securities class action against Co-Diagnostics, Inc. and certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.At issue was the Company's May 1, 2020, press release, which disclosed, among other things, that the Company's Logix Smart® COVID-19 test demonstrated "100% sensitivity and 100% specificity"—well-defined scientific metrics—across independent evaluations. Plaintiff alleged that the May 1 press release was false and/or misleading because it conveyed to investors that the Logix Smart test was "100% accurate" (i.e., perfect), allegedly causing the Company's stock price to be artificially inflated. Plaintiff alleged that this artificial inflation was removed, and investors suffered losses, when the Company's stock price dropped on May 15 following three disclosures that allegedly revealed the May 1 press release to be false ("Alleged Corrective Disclosures"). BakerHostetler was retained to replace prior counsel after the motion to dismiss was denied and the case was in the early phases of discovery. On summary judgment, BakerHostetler argued that Plaintiff could not establish any genuine issue of material fact supporting liability as to any element of its Section 10(b) claim—falsity, scienter, reliance, loss causation, or damages. BakerHostetler also argued that Plaintiff's experts' testimony—which related to clinical testing and loss causation—should be excluded on summary judgment under Daubert. On March 4, 2025, after oral argument, the Court granted Defendants' Daubert motion to exclude the testimony of Plaintiff's loss causation expert and granted summary judgment for Defendants, concluding that Plaintiff could not demonstrate loss causation. The Court held that none of the three Alleged Corrective Disclosures actually "corrected" the May 1 press release, either because they did not discuss the Company's Logix Smart test, or because the allegedly contradictory information was long known to the market and already baked into the Company's stock price. Accordingly, Plaintiff could not establish that the May 1 press release was the cause of Plaintiff's or the class's losses. Having reached this conclusion, the Court declined to address the other summary judgment arguments or Daubert motions. The Company regards this dismissal as a tremendous victory and is optimistic about its chances of prevailing in any appeal Plaintiff might file. The Company looks forward to putting the matter behind it, as it moves ahead with its mission of increasing the availability of high-quality molecular diagnostics on a global scale. Anuncio • Feb 22
Co-Diagnostics, Inc. Announces Intention to Submit Enhanced Version of COVID-19 Test to FDA for 510(k) Clearance Co-Diagnostics, Inc. announced that, following a collaborative and informative dialogue with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Company has withdrawn its 510(k) application to the FDA for its Co-Dx™ PCR COVID-19 Test on the PCR Pro™*, in favor of submitting an enhanced version of the test for 510(k) clearance. Co-Dx is pleased with the productive engagement with the FDA related to the initial regulatory submission and with the performance of the test in clinical evaluations, including performance data and functionality of the instrument. The decision by the Company to withdraw the submission was based on discussions with the FDA regarding the ability to detect a potential deterioration of one component of the test, related to shelf-life stability. Following dialogue with the FDA and exploring the various courses of action available, Co-Dx has determined that the best long-term solution would be to submit a version of the test that has been enhanced to address the matter raised in the 510(k) review process. The Company plans to submit the next iteration of the Co-Dx PCR COVID-19 test for 510(k) OTC clearance, following the collection of clinical evaluation data to support the new test's performance. A new submission also allows the Company to incorporate more recent Co-Dx PCR platform developments into the COVID-19 test, which Co-Dx believes will also help to create greater operational and manufacturing efficiencies, such as consolidating manufacturing processes to utilize the next generation of test kits and instruments across all tests on the at-home and point-of-care platform. The Company's primary objective is to execute a robust development and commercialization plan for the Co-Dx PCR platform, including ongoing innovations to the PCR Pro instrument. The Co-Dx PCR COVID-19 test is expected to be followed by additional tests for tuberculosis, upper-respiratory multiplex, and a multiplex HPV test, among others. Anuncio • Jan 11

New Risk • May 12
New minor risk - Shareholder dilution The company's shareholders have been diluted in the past year. Increase in shares outstanding: 3.3% This is considered a minor risk. Shareholder dilution occurs when there is an increase in the number of shares on issue that is not proportionally distributed between all shareholders. Often due to the company raising equity capital or some options being converted into stock. All else being equal, if there are more shares outstanding then each existing share will be entitled to a lower proportion of the company's total earnings, thus reducing earnings per share (EPS). While dilution might not always result in lower EPS (like if the company is using the capital to fund an EPS accretive acquisition) in a lot cases it does, along with lower dividends per share and less voting power at shareholder meetings. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 18% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Shareholders have been diluted in the past year (3.3% increase in shares outstanding). Market cap is less than US$100m (€32.2m market cap, or US$34.7m). Anuncio • Apr 27

Pomerantz Law Firm Announces the Filing of a Class Action Against Co-Diagnostics, Inc. and Certain Officers Pomerantz LLP announced that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Co-Diagnostics, Inc. and certain of its officers. The class action, filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and docketed under 22-cv-07988, is on behalf of a class of all persons and entities who purchased the publicly traded securities of Co-Dx during the period May 12, 2022 through the close of the market on August 11, 2022 (4:00 p.m. ET), inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the federal securities laws and to pursue remedies under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, against the Company and certain of its top officials. If one is a shareholder who purchased Co-Dx securities during the Class Period, he has until October 17, 2022 to ask the Court to appoint him as Lead Plaintiff for the class. On April 6, 2020, Co-Dx announced that it had received an Emergency Use Authorization for its Logix Smart™ COVID-19 detection test from the Food and Drug Administration, allowing it to commence sales of the test to laboratories certified by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services under the Clinical Laboratories Improvements Act (“CLIA”) to accept human samples for diagnostics testing throughout the United States. Co-Dx has sold its Logix Smart™ COVID-19 test to such CLIA labs since that time. Co-Dx services over 500 centralized lab customers, including about 200 U.S. CLIA labs, 130 foreign labs, and approximately 200 labs in India certified by the National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories. The complaint alleges that, during the Class Period, Defendants repeatedly touted the Logix Smart™ COVID-19 Test, reassuring investors about the demand for the product. At the same time, Defendants failed to disclose that: (1) demand for the Logix Smart™ COVID19 Test had plummeted throughout the quarter ended June 30, 2022, and (2) as a result, Defendants’ positive statements about the demand for the Logix Smart™ COVID-19 Test lacked a reasonable basis.
