Daniel Aharonoff Continues Pioneering Work with Latest Streaming Media Investment

ENCINO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 31, 2019 / Video streaming may be the most powerful disruptive force in the entertainment industry since television became a mass phenomenon. Just as the advent of e-commerce upended the world of traditional retail, so the meteoric rise of Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime redefined the rules of content consumption, raising the bar for movie studios and cable networks. Driven by the increasing affordability of connected devices and high-speed broadband, the video streaming industry is forecast to expand at an annual rate exceeding 19% btween 2019 and 2025, reaching almost $125 billion in value. However, there was hardly anyone in the late 1990s expecting such explosive growth and the monumental impact on content consumption patterns, viewer habits, and business models. It was the early days of the internet, and watching video content on dial-up connections severely taxed the patience of PC users. Nevertheless, Daniel Aharonoff had the foresight to pursue a career in digital media, realizing that it would dominate the future. More than 20 years after founding his first successful company, online content platform VideoDome Networks, he is again pushing boundaries with his support for an innovative streaming project, Everland.

As a digital media consultant, Daniel Aharonoff has been instrumental in facilitating the transformation of such high-profile organizations as NBC and Fox Television. He continued to build up his expertise through numerous senior executive positions, expanding on his pioneering work of the late 1990s to become one of the most highly regarded digital media professionals and a prominent technology investor. Most recently, he has invested in Everland, an online gaming platform that aims to redefine the concept of a virtual community. The creator of the game is Byron ‘Reckful’ Bernstein, whom Daniel Aharonoff met through a mutual friend. The former professional esports player rose to fame as a teenager, becoming the highest-rated World of Warcraft gamer around the age of 20.

Currently in active development, Everland is looking to build an online community unlike any other, bringing players together through more than interactive chats. The platform will house a virtual world that users can explore with in-game friends and new acquaintances, in addition to which they can become the owners of virtual mansions. Users will also have the opportunity to engage in various other pursuits, such as DJing in a club, hanging out in the casino, and playing board games. Users will be able to purchase cosmetics representing their favorite streamers as well as socialize with them around Everland in various places via many mini-games custom-designed for the environment. The entire concept has the potential to introduce a ground-breaking streaming service made even more attractive by the fact that access to this fascinating world will be free.

Daniel Aharonoff has been involved in the digital media space for more than 20 years, laying the foundations of his remarkable professional success with his appointment as a strategic consultant to NBC Television. He advised the company on the launch of its VideoSeeker online service and showcased its digital properties on numerous pioneering portals, among them World News, The Tonight Show, and Saturday Night Live. This assignment was followed by the position of acting CTO at FoxKids and Fox Family Channel, where Aharonoff consulted on all technology and digital media initiatives. In 1997, he founded movie content aggregator VideoDome Networks, serving as its CEO until 2004. After a number of senior roles at digital media companies, he joined BroadScaler Consulting in 2009, assuming the CEO responsibilities.

LEAD PLAINTIFF DEADLINE ALERT: Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses Exceeding $50,000 In Acer Therapeutics Inc. To Contact The Firm

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 31, 2019 / Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, reminds investors in Acer Therapeutics Inc. (“Acer” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:ACER) of the August 30, 2019 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

If you invested in Acer stock or options between September 25, 2017 and June 24, 2019 and would like to discuss your legal rights, click here: www.faruqilaw.com/ACER. There is no cost or obligation to you.

You can also contact us by calling Richard Gonnello toll free at 877-247-4292 or at 212-983-9330 or by sending an e-mail to rgonnello@faruqilaw.com.

Attn: Richard Gonnello, Esq.

Telephone: (877) 247-4292 or (212) 983-9330

The lawsuit has been filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of all those who purchased Acer securities between September 25, 2017 and June 24, 2019 (the “Class Period”). The case, Sell v. Acer Therapeutics Inc. et al., No. 19-cv-06137 was filed on July 1, 2019.

The lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) Acer lacked sufficient data to support filing EDSIVO’s Non-Drug Application (“NDA”) with the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for the treatment of vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (“vEDS”); (2) the Ong Trial was an inadequate and ill-controlled clinical study by FDA standards, and was comprised of an insufficiently small group size to support EDSIVO’s NDA; (3) consequently, the FDA would likely reject EDSIVO’s NDA; and (4) as a result, the Company’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On June 25, 2019, Acer issued a press release disclosing that the FDA had rejected the Company’s NDA for EDSIVO. That same day, Reuters published an article titled “FDA declines to approve Acer Therapeutics’ rare genetic disorder treatment.” In discussing the FDA’s rejection of the Company’s FDA, the Reuters article noted, among other things, how “[t]he small group size” of the Ong Trial had “raised questions among experts about the adequacy of the trial results.”

On this news, Acer’s stock price fell from $19.28 per share on June 24, 2019 to $4.12 per share on June 25, 2019-a $15.16 or 78.63% drop.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Acer’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

Professional Bank Makes Commercial Borrowing Faster, Easier and More Transparent with Advanced Technology from Moody’s Analytics

Coral Gables-based community bank is first of its size to offer Moody’s Analytics AI-driven spreading software

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / July 31, 2019 / Professional Bank, one of the fastest growing financial institutions in Florida, has joined the ranks of the nation’s largest institutions in automating business loan applications. As the first sub-$1 billion community bank in the nation to use Moody’s Analytics QUIQspread™ automated spreading technology – as part of a suite of Moody’s Analytics solutions that also includes CreditLens™, ImpairmentStudio™ and MARQ™ software – the institution reviews loan applications faster, more accurately and more efficiently than most lenders.

“This investment will incrementally enhance our deal flow management, loan review and approval process which will directly benefit our commercial borrowers,” said Professional Bank Chairman and CEO Daniel R. Sheehan. “Our team continues to focus on leveraging technology to improve service and strengthen credit quality controls as we continue to grow.”

The QUIQspread solution eliminates the need for loan applicants to format financial information for Professional Bank. Moody’s Analytics software extracts data and notifies the borrower upfront of missing information. As a result, loans are processed faster.

After organizing and analyzing the application, the cloud-based, secure program generates custom reports that are more accurate and 70% faster in generating spreads than manual reviews. Automation and constant error checking produce shorter loan review times than traditional lending practices. The software uses machine learning to learn from Professional Bank’s loan officers how to produce better analyses.

“We are thrilled to see Professional Bank leading the community bank industry in integrating QUIQspread and other advanced technology solutions into its business services,” said Eric Grandeo, Senior Director of the Moody’s Analytics Accelerator, which developed the QUIQspread solution. “We are confident these capabilities will give the institution a competitive edge in attracting and retaining corporate clients.”

This year, Professional Bank rolled out technologies such as an Apple Watch app, industry leading instant person-to-person payments called SPIN, and an interactive website with more technology-focused initiatives being launched later this year. They include products and services from the Cleveland Digital Innovation Center that opened last December.

“This is just the beginning of the great enhancements we are bringing to market for our clients and employees. The team effort and partnerships prove that the right culture and environment empower us to move fast and be a leader in the industry,” said Ryan Gorney, CIO of Professional Bank.

The Bank is implementing QUIQspread and related programs in the third quarter at its banking centers, including at its newest branches in Dadeland and Boca Raton, and its just-launched Loan Production Offices in Doral and Wellington.

This and other innovations come during a period of tremendous growth for the Bank. It reported $890 million in assets for the first time in its 10-year history during the second quarter of 2019. In December 2018, the parent company raised $20 million in new capital that is being used to invest in new locations, technology and talent.

About Professional Bank: Headquartered in Coral Gables, Fla., Professional Bank is one of South Florida’s fastest-growing community banks. A subsidiary of financial holding company Professional Holding Corp. Professional Bank specializes in construction, residential and commercial real estate financing as well as business loans and lines of credit, including SBA financing. Known for high-touch customized concierge services, the bank serves the needs of its customers through a full offering of deposit products, cash management services, online and mobile banking.

Founded in 2008, Professional Bank operates full-service branches and loan production offices in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. For more information, visit myprobank.com.
