Predictive
Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI), focused on applying artificial intelligence (“AI”)
to personalized medicine and drug discovery, today announced its receipt of
interest from several parties for the possible acquisition of its Skyline
Medical division, which produces and sells the STREAMWAY System for disposal of
fluids in medical applications. Predictive Oncology previously announced
intentions to focus its resources on its primary mission of applying artificial
intelligence to precision medicine and drug discovery. “I am exceptionally
pleased with the rapid growth and development of our Helomics and Tumor Genesis
divisions, as well as the multiple indications of interest for our Skyline
Medical division,” Predictive Oncology CEO Dr. Carl Schwartz said in the news
release. “If this results in the sale of Skyline Medical, it would not only
provide additional working capital, it would also allow Predictive Oncology to
focus on the further development and commercialization of our two divisions
focused on precision medicine.”

About Predictive Oncology Inc.
Predictive Oncology (NASDAQ: POAI) operates through five
segments (domestic, international, clinical, CRO and DCHIP), which contain four
subsidiaries: Helomics, TumorGenesis, Skyline Medical and Skyline Europe.
Helomics applies artificial intelligence to its rich data gathered from patient
tumors to both personalize cancer therapies for patients and drive the
development of new targeted therapies in collaborations with pharmaceutical
companies. Helomics’ CLIA-certified lab provides clinical testing that assists oncologists
in individualizing patient-treatment decisions by providing an evidence-based
road map for therapy. In addition to its proprietary precision-oncology
platform, Helomics offers boutique CRO services that leverage its TruTumor(TM),
patient-derived tumor models coupled to a wide range of multi-omics assays
(genomics, proteomics and biochemical) and an AI-powered, proprietary
bioinformatics platform (DCHIP) to provide tailored solutions to clients’
specific needs. Predictive Oncology’s TumorGenesis subsidiary is developing a
new rapid approach to growing tumors in the laboratory, which essentially
“fools” cancer cells into thinking they are still growing inside a patient.
POAI’s proprietary Oncology Discovery Technology Platform kits will assist researchers
and clinicians in identifying which cancer cells bind to specific biomarkers.
Once the biomarkers are identified, they can be used in TumorGenesis’ Oncology
Capture Technology Platforms, which isolate and help categorize an individual
patient’s heterogeneous tumor samples to enable the development of
patient-specific treatment options. Helomics and TumorGenesis are focused on
ovarian cancer. Predictive Oncology’s Skyline Medical division markets its
patented and FDA-cleared STREAMWAY System, which automates the collection,
measurement and disposal of waste fluid, including blood, irrigation fluid and
others, within a medical facility, through both domestic and international
divisions. The company has achieved sales in five of the seven continents through
both direct sales and distributor partners. For more information, please
