Oak Ridge, TN, Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Daxor Corporation (NASDAQ:DXR), the global leader in blood volume measurement technology, today announced its intention to transition its primary regulatory reporting framework from the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Investment Company Act) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), subject to its completion of required regulatory filings and approvals. This transition reflects the sustained rapid scaling and strategic maturation of the Company's core diagnostic technology operating business.

The Company's principal focus remains the development and commercialization of its market-leading Blood Volume Analysis (BVA) technology. This is the only FDA-cleared diagnostic blood test providing objective, patient-specific quantification of a patient's total blood volume status and composition.

Key Highlights of the Transition

Reaffirmed Focus on Operations: This transition validates the success of management's strategy to prioritize and rapidly grow the core BVA technology division. This growth has been marked by significant developmental milestones, including revenue increases, new hospital system and medical practice customer acquisitions, and recent FDA-clearance of its next generation blood volume analyzer
Alignment of Financial Profile: Operational growth has evolved to a point where the Company's financial profile is now more accurately and appropriately represented under the Exchange Act framework, aligning regulatory status with the Company's primary identity as an innovative medical device and diagnostic technology firm
Enhanced Investor Clarity: Reporting under the Exchange Act will simplify financial disclosures and provide investors with standardized GAAP metrics and benchmarks in line with, and directly comparable to other publicly traded medical diagnostic companies. This alignment is expected to improve transparency and garner deeper institutional interest while expanding analyst coverage

"The strategic decision to transition back to Exchange Act reporting is a financial validation of our focused growth strategy," said Robert Michel, Daxor's Chief Financial Officer. "Daxor has achieved the scale necessary to align our regulatory and operational frameworks with our identity as a high-growth medical diagnostic company, enhancing transparency and comparability for our investors."

Next Steps

The Company anticipates completing the necessary regulatory steps to fully effectuate the change in reporting status by the end of the second quarter, subject to completion of required regulatory filings and approvals.
