CLINICAL UTILITY OF CXBLADDER TO HEADLINE AT AUA 2024

DUNEDIN, New Zealand – Cancer diagnostics company Pacific Edge (NZX, ASX: PEB) released a routine marketing communication this morning to investors, customers, and the media on its activities at the American Urological Association (AUA) Annual Meeting on May 3 - 6 to promote the results of its STRATA study. These activities had been previously described in our Q4 24 Investor Update released on 9 April, 2024.

Pacific Edge incorrectly stated in a footnote of this morning’s marketing communication that the information contained in it was ‘material’, and is issuing this communication to the NZX and ASX as a correction. Pacific Edge has already corrected the statement in a revised marketing email. Pacific Edge maintains the view that the information is not material as defined by the NZX listing rules since the results of the study and the AUA’s interest in it were disclosed in the company’s Q4 24 Investor Update.

Notably, in the Q4 24 Investor Update the company disclosed that the abstract of the study had been accepted as a podium presentation at the AUA and that a manuscript on the study requested by the AUA for publication in the issue of the Journal of Urology that will coincide with the AUA Annual Meeting was in the final stages of peer-review. The peer-review process has since been completed and the manuscript is confirmed to be published.
