Co-Diagnostics Hosts Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Joint Venture CoMira for Unveiling of Future Automated Manufacturing Line
Visit has included tour of Utah headquarters and automated manufacturing facilities ahead of planned technology transfer
SALT LAKE CITY, June 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Co-Diagnostics, Inc. (NASDAQ:CODX) ("Co-Dx" or "the Company"), a molecular diagnostics company with a unique, patented platform for the development of molecular diagnostic tests, today announced that a delegation from CoMira Diagnostics ("CoMira"), the Company's joint venture with partners in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ("KSA"), visited Co-Diagnostics' Salt Lake City headquarters ahead of a planned technology transfer to CoMira. The visit included a tour of the Company's facilities and unveiling a future automated manufacturing line at a technology and innovation event also attended by state officials, trade representatives, and community leaders.
The week-long visit and yesterday's unveiling represent the next phase of the Company's partnership with CoMira, which is designed to bring Co-Dx's molecular diagnostics platform* and manufacturing capabilities to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The KSA delegation and other dignitaries toured the Company's future automated PCR test kit manufacturing line, a key component of the planned technology transfer to CoMira, which is expected to enable rapid scaling of diagnostic test production and more efficient deployment of testing solutions to support healthcare needs in KSA and 18 other Middle Eastern and Northern African countries.
"International partnerships like the one we have fostered with CoMira reflect our belief that closing the diagnostics gap requires a collaboration between both leading-edge technology and deep local expertise," remarked Dwight Egan, Chief Executive Officer of Co-Diagnostics. "This visit is an opportunity to demonstrate what we are building and what we intend to deliver: an integrated platform, a manufacturing capability, and a partnership model that we believe can make meaningful diagnostics more accessible across the region and beyond."
The Co-Dx PCR platform integrates artificial intelligence and cloud-connected outbreak surveillance capabilities designed to support real-time monitoring of infectious disease trends. These capabilities are expected to be a component of the CoMira partnership and reflect the Company's broader strategy of deploying automated, AI-enabled diagnostics infrastructure in key international markets.
The delegation event took place on June 17, 2026, and included participation from Utah state officials, trade representatives, and other local leaders, reflecting the significance of the partnership to both the local innovation ecosystem and U.S.-Gulf region economic collaboration.
"This visit has provided our team a direct look at the advanced manufacturing infrastructure that will underpin CoMira's future operations in the Kingdom," said Ihssan Rjoob, CEO of CoMira Diagnostics. "Co-Diagnostics has built an automated platform designed for scalable, efficient production, and we are excited to translate that capability into a local manufacturing operation that will complement CoMira's strengths in serving the healthcare needs of Saudi Arabia and the broader region."
*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 yet available for sale.
