Zomedica se v Kanadě spojila s Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Canada Inc. na rozšíření testování PPID u koní pomocí platformy TRUFORMA. Program má veterinářům nabídnout rychlé endokrinní testy přímo v ordinaci a začíná s podzimní testovací sezónou pomocí testů eACTH a inzulinových testů.
Collaboration with one of the world's largest animal health companies expected to accelerate TRUFORMA adoption, expand installed base, and drive recurring diagnostic revenue in Canada
ANN ARBOR, MI / ACCESS Newswire / August 13, 2026 / Zomedica Corp. (OTCQB:ZOMDF) ("Zomedica" or the "Company"), a veterinary health company offering diagnostic and therapeutic solutions for equine and companion animals, today announced a collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Canada Inc., a leader in the animal health industry, to enhance the early detection, treatment, and monitoring of pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) in horses across Canada.
Through this initiative, the TRUFORMA system will support Boehringer Ingelheim's PPID awareness and testing efforts in Canada beginning with this fall testing season, enabling veterinarians to perform rapid endocrine testing at the point of care using Zomedica's equine endogenous ACTH (eACTH) and equine insulin assays.
By bringing this testing directly into equine veterinary practices, the program will support prompt diagnosis and treatment. The use of Zomedica's TRUFORMA diagnostic platform within Boehringer Ingelheim's PPID awareness and testing efforts brings advantages for Canadian veterinarians and horse owners alike.
Under the agreement, Zomedica will support the placement of TRUFORMA analyzers in participating equine veterinary practices across Canada, while Boehringer Ingelheim will provide eligible customers with complimentary diagnostic testing performed using Zomedica's TRUFORMA platform.
Participation in the program includes no-cost placement of TRUFORMA analyzers in participating equine veterinary practices, along with diagnostic cartridge kits provided at no cost to eligible Boehringer Ingelheim customers. This approach is expected to expand the installed base of Zomedica's platform in Canada and introduce participating veterinarians to additional equine assays available from Zomedica, including Cortisol and Progesterone.
PPID, previously known as equine Cushing's disease, is the most common endocrine disorder in aging horses, affecting approximately 20-25% of horses over the age of 15. This prevalence has been documented in multiple epidemiological studies, including research published in the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, which reported that roughly one-fifth of horses over 15 years of age show evidence of PPID based on endocrine testing (McFarlane et al., Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, 2018).
The program will utilize Zomedica's TRUFORMA® equine endogenous ACTH (eACTH) assay, which recent comparative evaluation data has demonstrated to have the closest agreement to reference laboratory results when compared with other commercially available assays, supporting its reliability for diagnosing PPID and monitoring treatment response.
"Expanding our collaboration with Boehringer Ingelheim-one of the largest and most respected companies in global animal health-into Canada, represents another important milestone for Zomedica," said Kevin Klass, Senior Vice President, Sales at Zomedica. "Their leadership in equine medicine, combined with our TRUFORMA diagnostic technology, creates a powerful synergy and marks another critical step in our strategy. Canada's vast geography and dispersed equine veterinary practices make access to specialized testing more challenging. Bringing this capability into the clinic will reduce the impact of distance and geographic isolation, facilitating timely testing."
"Veterinarians play a critical role in recognizing and managing PPID, and we've seen the meaningful difference that early diagnosis, treatment, and whole-horse management can make," commented Randy Trumpler, Business Unit Director - Equine at Boehringer Ingelheim Animal Health Canada Inc. "By collaborating with Zomedica, we're expanding access to innovative diagnostic solutions for Canadian veterinarians and empowering them to make faster, more confident decisions-ultimately supporting better outcomes for the horses in their care and their owners."

Commissiong, Interim Co-CEO of DataMeds AI. "The treatment market for Long COVID is expected to grow from $3.2 billion in 2023 to over $32.8 billion in 2031 according to Clearview Market Insights. We attribute this massive expected growth to the development of new protocols that combine existing biopharmaceutical drugs with supplements and medical foods to help patients manage their symptoms, along with growing awareness of Long COVID and its links to related diagnoses such as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and increasingly available diagnostic tools connecting biomarker patterns to chronic pathogen response."
"We also believe it is crucial to address acute viral infections, and our portfolio of products is expected to make a meaningful impact for patients as awareness grows," Mr. Commissiong added.

Ryder ve 2. čtvrtletí zvýšil EPS o 12,4 % na 3,73 USD a tržby o 5 % na 3,35 miliardy USD. Firma zároveň navýšila celoroční výhled EPS na 14,40 až 14,80 USD z předchozího rozpětí 14,05 až 14,80 USD.
Key Takeaways Ryder's second-quarter EPS rose 12.4% to $3.73 as revenues increased 5% to $3.35 billion.Ryder raised 2026 EPS guidance as fleet earnings improved and first-half free cash flow reached $684 million.Ryder's $7.46 billion debt, limited liquidity and weak momentum profile support a selective stance. Ryder System (R - Free Report) ) has given investors plenty to assess after a sharp 2026 rally and another quarter of earnings growth. Shares are up 39.9% year to date, reflecting better execution and improving used vehicle conditions.
The case is not one-sided. Ryder’s earnings momentum, valuation discount and cash returns support investor interest, but leverage, economic uncertainty and a weaker momentum profile argue for selectivity.
Ryder’s Earnings Beat Strengthens the Bull CaseRyder reported second-quarter 2026 comparable earnings per share of $3.73, up 12.4% year over year. The result exceeded the consensus estimate, with the latest EPS surprise at 0.8%.
Total revenues rose 5% year over year to $3.35 billion. Fleet Management Solutions was a key driver, with earnings before taxes increasing 20% to $150 million on better contractual business performance and improved used vehicle sales.
Management also raised full-year comparable EPS guidance to $14.40-$14.80 from the prior range of $14.05-$14.80. The higher outlook supports the view that Ryder’s contractual portfolio and strategic initiatives are translating into earnings growth.
R Trades Below Key Sales Valuation BenchmarksRyder trades at 0.68X forward 12-month price-to-sales, well below 2.33X for its Zacks sub-industry, 1.45X for the broader transportation sector and 4.97X for the S&P 500.
That discount supports the value argument, especially for investors comparing Ryder with other transportation names. XPO, Inc. (XPO - Free Report) is tied more directly to asset-based less-than-truckload freight transportation, while J.B. Hunt Transport Services, Inc. (JBHT - Free Report) offers a broader freight and logistics model across North America.
Still, Ryder’s own history tempers the valuation case. The stock is also trading at the high end of its five-year price-to-sales range, which has run from 0.28X to 0.68X, with a median of 0.42X.
Ryder’s Cash Returns Reward ShareholdersRyder returned $406 million to shareholders through dividends and buybacks in the first half of 2026. That followed $664 million returned in 2025, $456 million in 2024 and $465 million in 2023.
Since 2021, Ryder has repurchased 26% of its outstanding shares and increased its quarterly dividend by 74%. The latest dividend increase was 11%, marking the fourth straight year of a double-digit raise.
Buybacks can strengthen per-share earnings when supported by durable cash flow. Ryder’s first-half free cash flow rose to $684 million from $461 million a year earlier, giving the company room to reward shareholders while funding fleet replacement and contractual growth.
R’s Debt Burden Limits the UpsideThe balance sheet remains the main offset. Ryder exited the second quarter with $219 million in cash and cash equivalents against $7.46 billion in total debt, including the current portion.
Its current ratio of 0.65 also reflects limited short-term liquidity flexibility. That matters for a capital-intensive leasing model that requires steady investment in vehicles and equipment.
The risk is not immediate distress, but sensitivity. If economic conditions weaken or funding costs stay restrictive, elevated leverage could narrow Ryder’s room to maneuver.
Ryder’s Price Target Leaves Moderate PotentialRyder’s $303 price target compares with the reported share price of $267.68. That implies about 13.2% appreciation potential from that level.
The upside is meaningful, but not overwhelming after the stock’s 39.9% year-to-date gain. Investors are no longer looking at a neglected setup.
Industry positioning also adds caution. Ryder’s industry sits in the bottom 32% of the Zacks Industry Rank, limiting the broader near-term backdrop even as company-specific execution has improved.
R’s Signals Favor Patience Over AggressionThe bottom line: Ryder’s earnings growth, value profile and shareholder returns keep the stock on the radar, but the rally has already priced in part of the improvement.
The stock currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), which supports a measured stance rather than an aggressive near-term buying call. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
Ryder’s Value Score of A and VGM Score of A strengthen the valuation case. Its Growth Score of B points to improving earnings prospects, while the Momentum Score of D cautions against chasing the stock after its strong advance.

Calene Candela
Vice President of Investor Relations
Thank you. Good morning, and welcome to Ryder's Second Quarter 2026 Earnings Conference Call. I'd like to remind you that during this presentation, you'll hear some forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in economic, business, competitive, market, political and regulatory factors.
More detailed information about these factors and a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest GAAP measure is contained in this morning's earnings release, earnings call presentation
Ryder (R - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $3.73 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $3.7 per share. This compares to earnings of $3.32 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +0.81%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this truck leasing company would post earnings of $2.29 per share when it actually produced earnings of $2.54, delivering a surprise of +10.92%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.
Ryder, which belongs to the Zacks Transportation - Equipment and Leasing industry, posted revenues of $3.35 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.14%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $3.19 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates just once over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Ryder shares have added about 44.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.6%.
What's Next for Ryder?While Ryder has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Ryder was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $4.23 on $3.36 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $14.73 on $13.22 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Transportation - Equipment and Leasing is currently in the bottom 31% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the same industry, Freightcar America (RAIL - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026.
This rail car maker is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.01 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -90.9%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
Freightcar America's revenues are expected to be $109.92 million, down 7.3% from the year-ago quarter.
Key Takeaways R hiked its quarterly dividend by 10.9% to $1.01 per share, payable on Sept. 18 to shareholders as of Aug. 24.This marks R's 200th consecutive quarterly dividend, continuing over 50 years of uninterrupted payouts.Dividend-paying stocks are less susceptible to market swings and act as a hedge against economic uncertainty. Last week, Ryder System, Inc. (R - Free Report) ) stated that its board of directors had announced an increase in its quarterly dividend payout, reflectingthe company’s commitment to boosting shareholder value, apart from underlining confidence in its business.
Dividend-paying stocks provide a solid income stream and have fewer chances of experiencing wild price swings. Dividend stocks are safe bets for creating wealth, as the payouts generally act as a hedge against economic uncertainty, like the current scenario.
Given this backdrop, the question that naturally arises is: Should investors buy, hold, or sell Ryder stock now? A more in-depth analysis is needed to make that determination. Before diving into Ryder’s investment prospects, let’s take a glance at its financial numbers.
Ryder’s Recent Dividend Increase of 10.9%In a shareholder-friendly move, Ryder’s board of directors has approved a dividend hike of 10.9%, thereby raising its quarterly cash dividend to $1.01 per share ($4.04 annualized) from 91 cents ($3.64 annualized). The raised dividend will be paid on Sept. 18, 2026, to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Aug. 24, 2026. The move reflects R’s intention to utilize free cash to enhance its shareholders’ returns.
R's latest dividend hike is the first increase since July 2025, implying the company’s confidence in its financial footing. This marks Ryder’s 200th consecutive quarterly cash dividend. Notably, Ryder has been making uninterrupted dividend payments for more than 50 years.
Ryder has been making uninterrupted dividend payments for more than 48 years. Ryder’s bottom line has been benefiting from its consistent efforts to reward its shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. During 2022, Ryder paid dividends of $123 million and repurchased shares worth $557 million. In 2023, Ryder paid dividends of $128 million and repurchased shares worth $337 million. In 2024, Ryder returned $456 million in cash to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends. During 2025, Ryder returned $664 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividend payments. During first-quarter 2026, Ryder returned $272 million to shareholders in the form of share repurchases and dividends.
Apart from being shareholder-friendly, Ryder is well-served by its focus on contractual growth and operational discipline. Upbeat used vehicle sales, particularly in its fleet management segment, along with stable pricing and improved contractual sales activity, bode well.
Ryder's cost-cutting initiatives in response to the weak freight market conditions are also commendable. Higher free cash flow generation expectation (this reflects lower capital spending due to softer lease sales activity) for the full year is another added positive. Ryder generated $2.59 billion of cash from operating activities in 2025, higher than the $2.26 billion generated in 2024. For 2026, adjusted ROE (return on equity) is expected to be in the range of 17-18%. Net cash from operating activities is still projected to be $2.7 billion.
Ryder Stock’s Price PerformanceShares of Ryder have gained 40.5% so far this year, outperforming the Zacks Transportation - Equipment and Leasing industry’s 11.8% increase, as well as that of other industry players, The Greenbrier Companies, Inc. (GBX - Free Report) and Wabtec Corporation (WAB - Free Report) .

Attractive Valuation Picture for Ryder StockRyder looks cheap from a valuation standpoint. Considering the forward 12-month price-to-sales ratio (P/S-F12M), Ryder is trading at a discount compared to the industry.
The stock has a forward 12-month P/S-F12M of 0.76X compared with 2.26X for the industry over the past five years. These factors indicate that the stock’s valuation is attractive. Ryder has a Value Score of A.

What Do Earnings Estimates Say for Ryder?The positive sentiment surrounding Ryder stock is evident from the fact that the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the third quarter of 2026 and the fourth quarter of 2026 earnings has been revised upward in the past 90 days. The consensus mark for 2026 and 2027 earnings has also been projected northward in the past 90 days.
The favorable estimate revisions indicate brokers’ confidence in the stock.

Time to Buy Ryder StockApart from being attractively valued, Ryder stock is being well-served by its focus on contractual growth and operational discipline. Upbeat used vehicle sales, particularly in its fleet management segment, along with stable pricing and improved contractual sales activity, bode well. Initiatives to reward its shareholders through dividends and buybacks are praiseworthy as well.
We believe that the positives surrounding the stock (as highlighted throughout the write-up) outweigh the concerns regarding supply-chain disruptions and high fuel costs due to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, tariff-induced economic uncertainties, risks associated with an economic slowdown, geopolitical tensions and a leveraged balance sheet. We, therefore, suggest investors add Ryder stock to their portfolios for healthy returns. The company’s Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) further supports our thesis.

BioLargo uvádí CupriDyne pro produkty pro domácí mazlíčky pod dosud neoznámenou značkou po úspěchu Pooph, které pod licencí vygenerovaly přes 125 milionů USD v tržbách. Firma začne v oblasti péče o domácí mazlíčky a poté se rozšíří do domácích odor a čisticích produktů.
BioLargo's newly formed subsidiary, BioLargo CPG, will bring to consumers the authentic, independently safety-tested CupriDyne® technology under its own brand following the marketing success of the original Pooph products that generated more than $125 million in pet-care sales while under license from BioLargo.
WESTMINSTER, CA / ACCESS Newswire / July 13, 2026 / BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQX:BLGO) today announced that it is preparing to relaunch CupriDyne®-based consumer pet products under a yet-to-be-announced brand. Targeting pets first, the new consumer products subsidiary will eventually expand into household odor and cleaning products. Formed to fill the gap left by Pooph's ongoing withdrawal from the market, BioLargo will sell direct to consumers and through online marketplaces such as Amazon, leveraging a "digital-first" strategy that allows for hyper-specific audience targeting, real-time performance tracking, and flexible budgets, rather than depending on expensive television campaigns.
CupriDyne-based pet products generated over $125 million in sales while under license and marketed under the Pooph brand. Unfortunately, a series of business decisions by Pooph's management later culminated in its abandonment of CupriDyne-formulated products, the foreclosure of their assets by their lender, board and CEO resignations, and what appears to be the cessation of business operations. BioLargo always owned the CupriDyne technology and had to revoke Pooph's license. Now, the ownership of the Pooph brand is embroiled in litigation. "As a result, we have an opportunity to leverage the prior marketing success by introducing our own brand" said Joseph Provenzano, who will lead the new BioLargo consumer products subsidiary as CEO.
BioLargo's launch brings the CupriDyne® technology and BioLargo's original products back to consumers who loved them. According to Grand View Research1, the U.S. pet odor control and clean-up products market was valued at approximately $6.47 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach approximately $8.87 billion by 2030. BioLargo's initial launch into pet odor control is part of a much larger home and pet cleaning opportunity. The company views pet care as a proven, well-defined category where the difference between masking and eliminating odors is immediately obvious to consumers. Unlike the Pooph brand, BioLargo's new brand will not be limited to pets, and will use the pet product launch to anchor a broader expansion of CupriDyne products across the home.
BioLargo has assembled a team of branding, marketing, creative, and channel-sales experts with proven track records building and growing consumer brands nationally in the pet and household categories. It plans to release additional information, including the product line, the brand name, and key team members, as the product nears its formal launch.
"It will be great to get back into the pet odor control and consumer products business", said Dennis Calvert, BioLargo CEO. "We have seen what can be done, and this time we will own the brand and control the marketing and distribution."
