JanOne Announces Plan to Enhance Stockholder Value Through Strategic Realignment
-The board has approved a strategic review of the biotech assets and ALT5 Sigma being the core focus going forward-
-The company is intending a name and stock symbol change to reflect this decision-
LAS VEGAS, July 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — JanOne Inc. (Nasdaq: JAN), a multidisciplinary organization with a focus on fintech and healthcare, has announced plans to enhance stockholder value through a visionary strategic realignment, entailing a redeployment of biotech assets and a change of its name.
The plan, unanimously approved by the company’s board and following the May acquisition of fintech innovator, ALT5 Sigma, is intended to complete a strategic review with the goal of monetizing the company’s biotech assets. The company will explore a variety of alternatives that could include a partial or full spin-off, entry into one or more strategic alliances, or negotiation of a partial or full sale, while focusing on the recently acquired, ALT5 Sigma fintech as the company’s core engine for revenue growth.
Tony Isaac, JanOne’s CEO, stated “the company’s strategy continues to be to enhance value for stockholders both from the recent ALT5 acquisition and the potential monetization of the biotech assets. In the short few weeks since closing the ALT5 acquisition, we have seen a significant increase in the funnel of opportunities for ALT5, which made the decision to increase the focus on that business an easy one.” Adding, “We are taking advantage of our strategic options and continuing to move swiftly toward unlocking the full potential of both sides of our company.”
In connection with the realignment, the company will change its name from JanOne Inc. to ALT5 Sigma Corporation. Its ticker symbol will change from “JAN” to “ALTS”. Further, the company will change its website address from “janone.com” to “alt5sigma.com.” The company will provide the timing of these changes in a subsequent press release.
In May, the company completed the acquisition of blockchain fintech provider, ALT5 Sigma Inc., and its subsidiaries. ALT5 provides next generation blockchain-powered technologies to enable a migration to a new global financial paradigm through ALT5 Pay, a crypto-currency payment gateway, and ALT5 Prime, an electronic over-the-counter trading platform.
As previously announced last August for its biotech business, the company was awarded a US patent for its innovative formulation of low-dose naltrexone, Jan123, for treating pain.
Vay Tham, JanOne’s Chief Revenue Officer and President of ALT5 Sigma, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, commented, “Today’s changes highlight the growing opportunities we see within JanOne. By seeking to uncouple the two businesses, each with their own unique opportunities and requirements, they will be able to reach their true market potentials without constraints.”
Marking the new strategic actions, JanOne CEO Isaac observed, “While our biotech’s trajectory stays on track, we have diversified into fintech for the benefit of our stockholders. We have proven again that we can move quickly, which is the attribute of having an innovative leadership team and a nimble company that responds quickly to opportunities that become available to us. We continue to work in this manner toward our goal of unlocking stockholder value.”

JuCoin COO Nicolas Speaks on Why $JU is the Most Promising Ecosystem Token in Crypto
SINGAPORE, Jan. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — What makes $JU stand out in the competitive world of crypto tokens? In an exclusive interview with Nicolas, the COO of JuCoin, we uncover the strategic vision driving this game-changing token. As the cornerstone of JuCoin’s ecosystem, $JU is poised to transform user experiences and solidify its place as the most promising ecosystem token in the crypto space today.
Interviewer: Nicolas, thank you for joining us today. JuCoin has been making waves in the blockchain space, and $JU is already generating significant buzz ahead of its launch. With so much anticipation, what sets $JU apart and positions it as the most promising ecosystem token in the market right now?
Nicolas: Absolutely, and thank you for having me. We’ve always envisioned $JU as more than just another platform token—it’s the core of JuCoin’s entire ecosystem. What sets $JU apart is its deep integration across all facets of JuCoin’s ecosystem.
First, $JU offers unparalleled versatility. It powers token launches, provides transaction fee discounts, facilitates governance, enables staking, and rewards active participants. Additionally, $JU is a gateway to accessing JuCoin’s high-quality ecosystem projects.
Unlike many tokens that serve a single purpose, $JU seamlessly bridges the gap between being a utility token for users and a valuable asset for ecosystem projects. This multifaceted role ensures that $JU isn’t just a token—it’s the lifeblood of JuCoin’s innovation. We’re confident this level of integration and utility will set $JU apart in the competitive crypto space.
Interviewer: With so many platform tokens in the market, what makes $JU stand out, and why do you think it will succeed in the long run?
Nicolas: What truly makes $JU stand out is its unique position within JuCoin’s ecosystem. Unlike many purely transactional tokens, $JU is designed to be a central utility token that fosters long-term value creation. It’s not just about holding a token—it’s about actively participating in the entire JuCoin ecosystem and unlocking exclusive benefits.
In addition, $JU serves as the native token of JuChain, the blockchain infrastructure we are building to empower the decentralized ecosystem of the JuChain network. This means $JU will have a dual role: fueling the innovation within JuChain’s decentralized framework while continuing to serve as the core asset in the JuCoin exchange. Here, it gives users privileges like transaction fee discounts, governance rights, staking opportunities, and access to high-quality projects.
Over time, this multi-functional design positions $JU as a true ecosystem token — one that bridges transactional utility, long-term rewards, and governance, ensuring its relevance and success for years to come.
Interviewer: Looking ahead, how does JuCoin envision $JU in the context of its 2025 strategy? What role do you see it playing as the platform grows?
Nicolas: By 2025, JuCoin aims to become a global leader in both crypto trading and blockchain development, with $JU positioned at the heart of this transformation. A major part of our strategy is the development of JuChain, an integrated blockchain infrastructure that will support the next generation of decentralized applications, tool innovation, and infrastructure development. As the gas token of this ecosystem, $JU will fuel its growth.
Additionally, our launchpad will play a critical role in onboarding high-potential projects, and $JU will be the key to gaining early access to these token launches. Beyond that, $JU will integrate deeply into our governance structure, enabling holders to vote on important decisions and directly influence the direction of the ecosystem.
In essence, $JU is designed to power the entire JuCoin ecosystem—from blockchain infrastructure to decentralized applications and token launches. It serves as the unifying medium, aligning all stakeholders and creating new opportunities for everyone involved. We firmly believe it will be the cornerstone of our success and innovation moving forward.
Interviewer: Finally, for those who are looking to get involved in $JU and JuCoin, what message do you have for them?
Nicolas: $JU is an opportunity to actively shape the future of the crypto ecosystem. Whether you’re a trader or a project developer, $JU offers a unique chance to participate in something much larger than just a token—it’s about becoming part of an innovative, growing platform.
As JuCoin continues to expand and build its ecosystem, $JU holders will be positioned to benefit from everything the platform has to offer. If you believe in the future of blockchain and want to be part of a dynamic ecosystem, $JU is the token to watch.
For crypto enthusiasts, we encourage you to follow us on our social media channels as we prepare to launch $JU and the JuCoin launchpad in the near future. Stay tuned—it’s just the beginning of an exciting journey.
