Neonorm.com allows online ordering and features in-depth product information for dairy and beef farmers, foal owners and veterinarians to help drive sales.

Jaguar Animal Health, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAGX) (Jaguar), an animal health company focused on developing and commercializing first-in-class gastrointestinal products for companion and production animals, foals, and high-value horses, and Napo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Napo), a human health company developing and commercializing novel gastrointestinal prescription products from plants used traditionally in rainforest areas, today announced Jaguar’s launch of neonorm.com, a commercial website for Neonorm Foal and Neonorm Calf, Jaguar’s lead non-prescription products.

Neonorm Foal is a natural, clinically-tested, non-drug product designed for use as an anti-diarrheal in newborn horses. Diarrhea is one of the most common clinical complaints in foals, especially within the first 30 days of life. The crippling effects of dehydration that often result from secretory diarrhea in foals can manifest quickly, precipitate adverse health effects and lead to death. 

Neonorm Calf has been formulated and clinically tested to help proactively retain fluid in dairy calves and reduce the severity of diarrhea-aiding calves in avoiding debilitating, dangerous levels of dehydration associated with scours.

Neonorm.com allows online ordering of both Neonorm Foal and Neonorm Calf directly from Jaguar and features in-depth product information, customer testimonials, and FAQs to help drive sales. The new site is a component of the integrated, multichannel marketing initiatives Jaguar launched during the first half of 2017 in support of Jaguar’s Neonorm commercial strategy of connecting directly with dairy and beef farmers, bovine veterinarians, equine veterinarians, horse owners and other members of the equine community in a targeted, engaging way to help build the Neonorm brand and drive sales-both directly and through Jaguar’s core dairy market distributor as well as Henry Schein, Inc., Jaguar’s exclusive distributor for Neonorm Foal.

Sample customer testimonials appearing on Neonorm.com:

  • “My experience was very positive. Used Neonorm Foal on two different thoroughbred foals and it was effective on both. Thanks!” – Tim Tompkins, Oak Orchard Farms
  • “We saw Neonorm Foal advertised on an RFD-TV show and talked with our vet about it. We bought it as an ‘in-case-we-need-it’, we feel it’s very inexpensive insurance to have on hand!” – Mike and Teresa Thompson, MT Acres, LLC
  • “We’ve used Neonorm Calf on close to 100 calves and it is working really well.” – Chelsea Lavoie, Metcalf Farm

Neonorm.com also features ongoing monthly “Selfie Contests” designed to drive engagement with existing and prospective Neonorm Foal and Neonorm Calf customers. To enter the contests, registered site visitors upload a selfie photo of themselves with a dairy or beef calf, or a selfie photo of themselves with their foal. Contest winners are determined based on votes cast by other registered site visitors for uploaded photos.

Neonorm is a standardized botanical extract derived from the Croton lechleri tree that acts at the same last step in a physiological pathway generally present in mammals. Foaling season in the northern hemisphere generally runs from May through September, while calf scours season in the U.S. generally runs from March through June.

Proposed Merger
