Co-Diagnostics Signs Definitive Agreement with Arabian Eagle in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Establish CoMira Diagnostics and Localize Co-Dx™ PCR Platform Across the Middle East

The new Saudi-based CoMira Diagnostics joint venture will be engaged in manufacturing and distribution of the Company's upcoming Co-Dx™ PCR platform and other Co-Dx IP across KSA and 18 other MENA countries

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CODX) (the "Company" or "Co-Dx"), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, patented platform for the development of molecular diagnostic tests, today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement with Arabian Eagle Manufacturing ("Arabian Eagle"), a regional manufacturing and distribution company based in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ("KSA") to form a joint venture ("JV"), CoMira Diagnostics ("CoMira"), to research, develop, manufacture, assemble, distribute, and commercialize Co-Dx technologies and intellectual property, including the Company's upcoming Co-Dx™ PCR point-of-care platform*, within KSA and 18 other countries (the "Territory") throughout the Middle East and North Africa ("MENA").

CoMira's mission aligns with the key pillars of Saudi Vision 2030, supporting technology localization, industrial diversification, and healthcare innovation, as the new venture engages in research, development, manufacturing, assembly, distribution, and commercialization of Co-Dx products.

The CoMira partners also believe that initially pursuing regulatory clearance with the Saudi Food & Drug Administration ("SFDA") will directly facilitate entry into many other countries in the Territory.

Company CEO Dwight Egan commented "We are pleased to announce this agreement to establish the relationship with Arabian Eagle, our valued partners in the Middle East, as we expand the reach of our exciting healthcare innovations into a region with a large and growing market for medical devices and point-of-care diagnostics. The KSA has published the key demand drivers that underpin that anticipated growth, and we believe that our cutting-edge PCR technology, along with the scope and mission of CoMira, addresses those drivers while reinforcing our resolve to close the accessibility gap between high-quality PCR diagnostics and those who need them."

"Arabian Eagle Manufacturing is proud to partner with Co-Diagnostics in establishing a transformative platform for molecular diagnostics within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia," remarked Ihssan Rjoob, CEO of Arabian Eagle. "This collaboration supports the goals of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 by advancing health security, driving technology localization, and promoting sustainable industrial growth.

"This partnership represents a compelling model for combining international innovation with strong local leadership, utilizing machine learning and AI for continuous process improvement, and delivering lasting impact across healthcare and manufacturing ecosystems," continued Mr. Rjoob.

"Most importantly, we believe that our shared mission to empower patients, clinicians, and healthcare providers with faster, more accessible and reliable diagnostic tools, will ultimately contribute to better health outcomes across the region."

The principals of Arabian Eagle ran the primary distributor in the Middle East and were instrumental in KSA being one of the largest international markets for the Company's Logix Smart® tests. According to the JV agreement, Arabian Eagle will contribute local operational and customer support, lead the manufacturing facility set-up and regulatory clearance/registration responsibilities, manage other logistics activities and ensure compliance with local industrial and commercial laws in pursuit of the JV's objectives across the Territory.

Similar to the Company's partnership in India with its existing JV, CoSara Diagnostics Pvt Ltd, Co-Dx will provide CoMira an exclusive license to use, manufacture, and commercialize the licensed IP, which will include the upcoming Co-Dx PCR platform as well as the Company's existing suite of lab-based PCR diagnostic products. Infectious disease tests on the new platform currently in preparation to begin clinical evaluations before the end of 2025 in various jurisdictions include tuberculosis, an 8-type HPV multiplex test, and an upper respiratory multiplex test for influenza A and B, COVID-19, and RSV.

Other MENA countries included in the Territory consist of Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Syria, Turkey, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Yemen, Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco, Sudan and Tunisia.

*The Co-Dx PCR platform (including the PCR Home™, PCR Pro™, mobile app, and all associated tests) is subject to review by the FDA and/or other regulatory bodies and is not currently available for sale.
