Jack Link’s and MrBeast Announce Unprecedented Global Partnership

Jack Link’s and MrBeast Announce Unprecedented Global Partnership

Jack Link’s today announced a groundbreaking global partnership with the world’s #1 social media creator, businessman, and philanthropist, MrBeast.

LONDON, May 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Jack Link’s, a global leader in meat snacks and one of the largest privately owned food companies in the U.S., today announced a groundbreaking global partnership with the world’s #1 social media creator, businessman, and philanthropist, MrBeast (Jimmy Donaldson).

This landmark collaboration will see the two entities launch an exciting line of co-branded protein-packed meat snack products. This partnership marks MrBeast’s first-ever collaboration with a Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) company for a co-branded product line, signaling a significant convergence of traditional food industry expertise and modern digital influence.

The Jack Link’s x MrBeast collaboration introduces a new line of co-branded meat snack packs of your favourite flavours of beef jerky, biltong and beef bars. Designed for convenient snacking and active lifestyles, these packs showcase MrBeast’s signature branding, cater to protein-rich snacking needs for school lunches, road trips, and everyday protein fuelling.

“We are incredibly excited to partner with MrBeast,” said Troy Link, CEO of Jack Link’s. “Jimmy’s entrepreneurial spirit and dedication to his fans align perfectly with our values at Jack Link’s. We believe this collaboration will drive a new generation of consumers into the meat snacks category, worldwide.”

This strategic partnership targets the significant market of Gen Alpha, Gen Z, and their parents. Despite 33 percent of younger consumers snacking more than three times a day, only about 9 percent currently opt for meat snacks, highlighting a substantial opportunity for growth by offering appealing and convenient choices that merge the trusted quality of Jack Link’s with the widespread influence of MrBeast.*

“I’ve been eating Jack Link’s since I can remember, so teaming up is a no-brainer,” Donaldson said. “Now we get to do something super fun and tasty for our fans – I can’t wait for everyone to see what we dream up.”

MrBeast’s CEO, Jeff Housenbold, added, ”We’re always looking to partner with brands that share our ‘better than the competition’ and ‘better-for-you’ philosophy, so this collaboration with Jack Link’s felt like a natural fit. Beast Packs are a way to bring the MrBeast experience from the screen to the snack aisle – while also introducing our fans to each other’s worlds.”

Research and Development
For the first quarter ending March 31, 2025, research and development expenses were €9.0 million, versus €7.2 million for the first quarter ending March 31, 2024. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to higher R&D activities and clinical study expenses.

For the first quarter ending March 31, 2025, selling, general and administrative expenses were €12.4 million, versus €6.0 million for the first quarter ending March 31, 2024.

Operating Loss
Total operating loss for the first quarter ending March 31, 2025 was €20.6 million, versus €12.2 million in the first quarter 2024, respectively. This was driven by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses to support commercialization of the Genio system, the Company’s overall scale-up preparations for the upcoming commercialization of Genio® system in the US upon receipt of FDA approval and increased R&D activities and clinical study expenses.

Cash Position
As of March 31, 2025, cash, cash equivalents and financial assets totaled €63.0 million, compared to €85.6 million at the end of 2024.

First Quarter 2025
Nyxoah’s financial report for the first quarter of 2025, including details of the consolidated results, are available on the investor page of Nyxoah’s website (https://investors.nyxoah.com/financials).

Progress Toward FDA PMA Approval
On March 26, 2025, Nyxoah announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued an Approvable Letter regarding the Company’s Pre-Market Approval (PMA) application for the Genio® system. The Approvable Letter means that Nyxoah’s application for marketing the device in the United States substantially meets the requirements of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and the FDA’s PMA implementing regulations.

The FDA has accepted all other data provided with the PMA submission, including most importantly that the clinical study demonstrates the safety and effectiveness of the Genio® system. Nyxoah has successfully completed the validation work requested by the FDA for the manufacturing process used for a component of the Genio system at the U.S. manufacturing site. The Company submitted the required documentation to the FDA, which has reviewed this validation work and confirmed they have no further questions. We believe that the last step before full PMA approval is an on-site FDA inspection of the U.S. manufacturing site which we expect to be completed shortly. As part of the PMA process, this site already passed an on-site inspection with no deficiencies, giving the Company confidence in completing this regulatory step. Nyxoah anticipates that its application could potentially be approved in the second quarter of 2025.

Conference call and webcast presentation
Company management will host a conference call to discuss financial results on Wednesday, May 14, 2025, beginning at 2:00pm CET / 8:00am ET.

Dr Mohsin Bin Balwan, Director of Traffic Engineering Department at SRTA, comments: “This project underscores our commitment to develop and maintain a robust transportation infrastructure that fosters the Emirate’s sustainable development and growth. By leveraging advanced technologies from global companies like Kapsch TrafficCom, SRTA aims to improve the quality of life for residents and visitors alike. This project marks a pivotal step towards Sharjah’s vision for AI driven and intelligent transport ecosystem solutions. The use of advanced artificial intelligence to monitor and respond to tunnel conditions in real-time significantly enhances public safety. These tunnels are set to become among the most intelligent and safe tunnel systems globally.”

Project details

The project involves the implementation and maintenance of various mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems for five tunnels. Key systems include:

  • Advanced Traffic Management System
  • Tunnel Ventilation System
  • Emergency Telephone System
  • Backbone Communication Network System
  • SCADA Integration System for real-time control
  • CCTV System, Incident Detection, and interrelated analytics
  • Lighting, Evacuation, and Fire Safety Systems
  • Power supply and environmental utilities
  • Server and XR-enabled control room facilities

The tunnels, among them the Al Multaqa tunnel which, at 2.7 kilometers is the longest covered tunnel in the Middle East, are essential for improving congestion, reducing travel time for trade and tourism, enhancing the air quality and ensuring reliability of the roadway infrastructure and driver safety.
