Cabbacis Granted U.S. Patent for Vaporizer Pods
The worldwide patent portfolio of Cabbacis includes 35 issued patents and various pending patent applications across the United States, Europe, China, India, Japan, Indonesia, Russia, South Korea, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico and Brazil.
U.S. Patent No. 12,349,724, which expires on July 27, 2038, includes ten claims on pods for electronic vaporizers. The claims cover vaporizer pods comprising blends of at least 5 mg of conventional-nicotine reconstituted tobacco and at least 5 mg of hemp, and separately, at least 5 mg of reduced-nicotine reconstituted tobacco and at least 5 mg of hemp. Reconstituted tobacco is typically used in closed-end electronic vaporizer pods. Commercial examples of popular, closed-end electronic vaporizers – also known as heat-not-burn products – include IQOS®, Ploom® and glo®.
Vaporizer pods covered under the 724 patent that contain conventional-nicotine tobacco and hemp will provide consumers with pleasant and differentiated taste and sensory characteristics, as compared to the above vaporizer brands that contain conventional-nicotine tobacco without any hemp.
Cabbacis owns two other previously-issued U.S. patents on vaporizer pods containing tobacco and hemp: 10,777,091 and 10,973,255 along with various international vaporizer pod patents.
The Company's patented, reduced-nicotine, iBlend™ vaporizer pods and patented, reduced-nicotine, iBlend™ cigarettes in development are to assist vapers or smokers of conventional tobacco products to vape or smoke less or transition to less harmful tobacco or nicotine products. iBlend™ reduced-nicotine cigarettes contain approximately 95 percent less nicotine than conventional cigarette brands. The Company's products in development are patented in many of the largest tobacco markets across the globe including the United States, China, Europe, Brazil and Japan.
Joseph Pandolfino, Chief Executive Officer of Cabbacis, commented, 'We are thrilled to announce this new patent for vaporizer pods, further fortifying our already robust intellectual property position. This patent, when taken in tandem with our existing patents, comprehensively cover, across more than 30 countries, any ratio of reduced-nicotine tobacco and hemp blended together in cigarettes and/or any ratio of conventional-nicotine tobacco and hemp or reduced-nicotine tobacco and hemp blended together in vaporizer products.'

About Reduced-Nicotine Cigarettes
Reduced-nicotine cigarettes without hemp that contain about 95 percent less nicotine than conventional cigarettes have been evaluated in dozens of independent studies. Results demonstrate, as reviewed in Donny and White 2022 (Int J Drug Policy 99:103436), that subjects smoked fewer cigarettes per day, reduced their nicotine dependence and exposure, doubled their quit attempts, and/or increased their number of smoke-free days.

Rosen Law Firm Encourages Simulations Plus, Inc. Investors to Inquire About Securities Class Action Investigation
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces an investigation of potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of Simulations Plus, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLP) resulting from allegations that Simulations Plus may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public. So What: If you purchased Simulations Plus securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses. What to do next: To join the prospective class action, go to or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email case@ for information on the class action. What is this about: On July 15, 2025, during market hours, Benzinga published an article entitled 'Simulations Plus Sees Weaker Demand Persist, Outlook Softens.' The article stated that Simulations Plus shares had declined 'following the release of [Simulations Plus'] third-quarter 2025 earnings report.' The article stated that Simulations Plus had reported sales of $20.4 million, representing a 10% year-over-year increase, but this fell short of the consensus estimate of $20.9 million.' Further, '[t]his miss followed preliminary third-quarter sales figures released in June, which were already lower than expectations at $19 million to $20 million, compared to a consensus of $22.78 million.' On this news, the price of Simulations Plus stock fell 25.75% on July 15, 2025. Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. At the time Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
