(“Niagen Bioscience” or the “Company”) and the Company’s common stock will begin trading under the new Nasdaq symbol “NAGE” at stock market open today, Wednesday, March 19, 2025. The CUSIP number for the Company's common stock will remain the same.
With a legacy spanning over 25 years, this strategic evolution underscores the Company’s true identity as the pioneer of NAD+ research and innovator behind transformative NAD-boosting healthy-aging solutions. At the forefront is Niagen Bioscience’s clinically proven, patented flagship nicotinamide riboside (NR) ingredient, Niagen® – the most well-researched, efficient, and high-quality, and legal NAD+ booster available.
“This is more than a name change; this is a turning point in our story,” said Rob Fried, CEO of Niagen Bioscience™. “We have achieved several scientific, financial, and strategic milestones. As Niagen Bioscience, the global leader in NAD+ science and commerce, we have the opportunity to help every living being around the world age better.”
Building on a 25+ year legacy, Niagen Bioscience’s renewed mission is simple yet powerful: “There’s a better way to age.” The Company remains dedicated to addressing one of life’s most complex challenges—aging. Embodying precision science, Niagen Bioscience is distinguished by state-of-the-art laboratories, rigorous scientific and quality protocols, and independent research collaborations with renowned investigators and institutions worldwide.
Niagen Bioscience’s clinically proven product portfolio, Tru Niagen® and Niagen™ Plus, is the pinnacle of NAD+ supplementation. Tru Niagen, the Company’s consumer supplement featuring clinically proven food-grade Niagen (patented NR), is the number one NAD+ boosting oral supplement in the United States†. Niagen Plus features pharmaceutical-grade Niagen (NR), compounded by U.S. FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facilities. It is available by prescription as intravenous (IV) and injectable Niagen. Niagen Bioscience is the first company in the U.S. to offer a novel branded ingredient (Niagen) both as a direct-to-consumer dietary supplement (Tru Niagen) and as an intravenous and injectable pharmaceutical-grade product (Niagen IV).
“Our new identity creates a stronger foundation for expanding scientific discoveries and opens doors for potential future strategic partnerships across the bioscience and healthcare sectors,” added Mr. Fried. “With this name change, we are celebrating that Niagen is a household name synonymous with healthy aging.”
Niagen Bioscience recently reported its fourth quarter and full-year 2024 financial results, with strong full-year net sales at $99.6 million, up 19% from the prior year, and $44.7 million in cash and no debt position. Niagen Bioscience continues to lead the NAD+ space and is reinforced by strong financial results, Tru Niagen’s position as the number one NAD+ boosting supplement in the United States†, the onboarding of Niagen IV at 475 clinics nationwide, and the Company’s distinctive external research program, which has generated over 35 human clinical studies on Niagen.
