    Headline: Secretary Noem is Taking a Sledgehammer to Criminal Human Trafficking Rings

    lass=”text-align-center”>On this World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, Kristi Noem and the Department of Homeland Security continue taking action to disrupt criminal human trafficking organizations
    WASHINGTON – On this year’s World Day Against Trafficking in Persons, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is announcing a series of major crack downs against the worst of the worst criminal organizations: human trafficking rings

     
    The previous administration’s open border policies empowered human traffickers and allowed over 450,000 unaccompanied children to be illegally smuggled over the border

     
    Under President Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, the full weight of the American government is bringing the hammer down on human trafficking rings

      In just the first few months, the Trump administration has developed leads on thousands of human trafficking cases

     
    DHS has also cracked down on the criminal terrorist gang Tren de Aragua, which enriches itself through the sex trafficking of vulnerable young women

      The Trump administration has arrested more than 2,700 members of Tren de Aragua so far

     
    This crisis is fueled by organized crime networks: sophisticated cartels that exploited the weakness of the previous administration, especially its open border and refusal to enforce immigration law, to rake in billions from forced labor, brutal sexual exploitation, coercing innocent people into drug running, and other heinous crimes

     
    “The brave men and women of DHS are the best in the world at going after traffickers

    They are always able to track down those who are trafficking individuals, find the ringleaders, and rip that evil off by its head,” said Secretary Kristi Noem

    “I’m so thankful that I get the chance to lead individuals like that, and agents who get up every day to help save our children and to save women and men from the kind of slavery that we’ve seen

    ” 
    Below are some examples of how DHS is fighting to put human traffickers out of business: 

    July 28, 2025: As part of Operation Apex Predator, a Child Exploitation Investigations Unit initiative with the Cyber Crimes Center, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Newark arrested four illegal alien child predators over the course of four days

    All four are registered sex offenders

    July 23, 2025: ICE arrested 243 illegal aliens in the Denver metro area

    Among those arrested were aliens wanted for human trafficking, and several members of transnational criminal organizations (TCOs), including Tren de Aragua (TdA), Los Zetas, and the Sinaloa Cartel

    July 22, 2025: Following an ICE Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) investigation, a resident of Laredo, Texas was sentenced to 63 months in prison for smuggling 101 migrants in a locked trailer

    Among the illegal aliens smuggled were 12 children

    The suspect was sentenced after pleading guilty to conspiracy to transport migrants

    July 21, 2025: As a result of an investigation by ICE HSI Rio Grande Valley, a convicted human smuggler was sentenced to 20 years in prison for possessing images of sexual assaults of prepubescent children

    July 10, 2025: ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) executed criminal warrant operations at marijuana facilities in Carpinteria and Camarillo, California

    In these facilities, at least 14 migrant children were rescued from potential exploitation, forced labor, and human trafficking

    During this operation, federal officers also arrested at least 361 illegal aliens

    Among those arrested were criminals with convictions for kidnapping, rape, attempted rape, and attempted child molestation, among other charges

    July 10, 2025: As the result of an ICE New York investigation, the leader of a Mexican sex trafficking organization was sentenced to 188 months in prison for sex trafficking multiple victims by force, fraud, and coercion

    July 9, 2025: An ICE Del Rio investigation resulted in an illegal Honduran alien being sentenced to 10 years in prison, with three years of supervised release, for his role in smuggling thousands of aliens into the United States for financial gain

    His smuggling conspiracy spanned three years and involved thousands of aliens from 11 different countries

    July 7, 2025: Border Patrol agents assisted the U

    S

    Marshals in executing an arrest warrant on a high-priority target linked to a criminal syndicate operating in human exploitation

    The suspect, a U

    S

    citizen, was wanted for multiple charges, including procurement of persons, placing individuals into prostitution, residing in a house of prostitution, and profiting from the earnings of prostitution

    The suspect was arrested without incident in Yuma, Arizona

     
    June 24, 2025: HSI Nashville identified one child victim and one adult victim of labor trafficking

    During an immigration court proceeding, the child victim revealed that she and her 18-year-old brother had been forced by their sponsor to work to pay off their smuggling fees and to pay for the sponsor’s household expenses

    After crashing into another car, the three occupants fled on foot before being arrested

    The driver faces federal charges that include human smuggling, fleeing law enforcement, and endangering human life

    May 2, 2025: Four Mexican nationals in the United States illegally were charged for their roles in an international human smuggling conspiracy that brought aliens across the Canadian border into the United States for profit

    The smuggling organization had been operating for two years and smuggled hundreds of aliens per week through Canada

    The aliens or their family members would pay thousands of dollars to be smuggled into the United States

    April 29, 2025: CBP officers at the Area Port of San Luis arrested a woman in connection with the failed smuggling attempt of a child

    The suspect, a Mexican citizen, had sedated the child prior to attempting to cross the border

    CEO Message
    Through the first half of 2025, TC Energy safely and reliably delivered energy across North America, maximizing asset value through safety and operational excellence. Despite the volatility in commodity markets and a complex macroeconomic backdrop, our business continues to demonstrate resiliency, achieving 12 per cent growth in comparable EBITDA and 13 per cent growth in segmented earnings compared to second quarter 2024. Driven by strong performance and focused execution, we now expect our 2025 comparable EBITDA outlook to be higher, in the range of $10.8 to $11.0 billion, compared to the original outlook of $10.7 to $10.9 billion. We continue to advance our strategic priorities – executing a selective portfolio of growth projects, maintaining financial strength and agility, while maximizing the value of our assets through safety and operational excellence. Our performance continues to underscore the strength of our business model and our ability to consistently deliver solid growth, low risk and repeatable performance. TC Energy’s Board of Directors approved a quarterly common share dividend of $0.85 per common share for the quarter ending September 30, 2025, equivalent to $3.40 per common share on an annualized basis.

    Following the completion of the Southeast Gateway pipeline on schedule and under budget in the second quarter, we commenced the collection of tolls from the CFE beginning May 2025. This event represents a significant operational and financial milestone, and an important step for Mexico’s energy landscape and economic development. The Southeast Gateway pipeline is a transformative infrastructure project – serving as a critical artery for delivering natural gas to underserved regions in Southeast Mexico, driving economic growth and energy security while supporting the country’s transition to lower-emitting, more reliable sources of energy. In July, the newly constituted Comisión Nacional de Energía (CNE) approved our regulated rates required to provide service to potential future interruptible service users on the Southeast Gateway pipeline other than the CFE.

    As part of our ongoing efforts to maximize the value of our assets, on July 1, 2025, Columbia Gas notified FERC that it has reached a settlement-in-principle on the Columbia Gas Section 4 Rate Case. Columbia Gas expects the final settlement to include an increase relative to pre-filed rates, subject to revision following completion and approval of settlement terms, which we anticipate in fourth quarter 2025. This outcome on our second-largest pipeline asset demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enhance system integrity and service reliability while ensuring timely capital recovery to maximize our long-term cash flow profile.

    We continue to execute our growth projects on-time and are tracking 15 per cent below budget on approximately $8.5 billion of assets expected to be placed into service this year. Year to date, we have placed into service approximately $5.8 billion of natural gas pipeline capacity projects, including the Southeast Gateway pipeline. In May, we successfully placed the East Lateral XPress (ELXP) project into service. As a strategic expansion of the Columbia Gulf Transmission system, ELXP delivers approximately 0.7 Bcf/d of firm natural gas capacity directly to Venture Global’s Plaquemines LNG terminal in Louisiana, reinforcing our role in enabling reliable, long-term energy supply to global markets.

    Fundamentals continue to drive significant growth opportunities for the incremental build-out of natural gas infrastructure across LNG export, coal-to-gas conversions, data centre demand and LDC reliability. Reflecting this momentum, we reached a positive FID on $0.4 billion of expansion facilities as part of MYGP; a program comprised of multiple distinct projects with targeted in-service dates between 2027 and 2030, subject to final company and regulatory approvals. Once complete, MYGP is expected to enable approximately 1.0 Bcf/d of incremental system throughput – further enhancing our ability to connect natural gas supply from competitive, low-cost basins to critical demand markets across North America. Additionally, we have upsized capacity on our previously announced Maysville and Pulaski projects. In aggregate, over the past nine months we have announced $4.5 billion of new capital projects, each underpinned by long-term take or pay contracts with strong counterparties and delivering a weighted average build multiple5 in the 5-7 times range. Our origination pipeline remains robust, with both the volume and scale of opportunities continuing to grow. We are seeing increased demand across multiple end-use sectors, with customers seeking additional capacity to upsize their projects. We believe this trend reflects strong underlying market fundamentals and reinforces our confidence in the long-term need for safe, reliable and affordable natural gas infrastructure.

    Looking ahead, we have clear visibility into a steady cadence of project announcements in the second half of 2025 and into 2026. Maintaining commitment to our annual net capital expenditure range of $6.0 to $7.0 billion, the majority of incremental capital is expected to be allocated toward the latter part of the decade. Our strategy remains centred on advancing low-risk, brownfield projects, underpinned by long-term contracts with strong counterparties, delivering attractive build multiples. This disciplined approach supports organic comparable EBITDA growth, underpins our three to five per cent annual dividend growth target, and enables ongoing deleveraging as we manage to our long-term target of 4.75 times debt-to-EBITDA6 ratio. These efforts collectively reinforce our commitment to sustainable, long-term value creation for shareholders.

    Finally, we released our 2025 Report on Sustainability. The report reaffirms TC Energy’s role in a collective effort to advance a lower-emissions energy system and demonstrates how we’re aiming to strike a balance between meeting growing energy demand and addressing rising global emissions, while collaborating closely with Indigenous rights holders, customers, neighbors and governments across Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Key highlights include:

    • Reduced absolute methane emissions by 12 per cent between 2019 and 2024 while increasing natural gas throughput by 15 per cent and comparable EBITDA in our natural gas business by 40 per cent
    • A continued focus on methane intensity reduction, targeting cost-effective abatement across jurisdictions
    • Achieved a five-year low in our High Energy Serious Injury and Fatality rate, demonstrating tangible progress in safeguarding our people and operations
    • Signed over 40 relationship agreements with Indigenous communities across NGTL and Foothills pipeline systems since 2020.

    Non-GAAP and Supplementary Financial Measure
    This release contains references to the following non-GAAP measures: comparable EBITDA, comparable earnings, comparable earnings per common share and comparable funds generated from operations. It also contains references to debt-to-EBITDA,a non-GAAP ratio, which is calculated using adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA, each of which are non-GAAP measures. These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning as prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. These non-GAAP measures are calculated by adjusting certain GAAP measures for specific items we believe are significant but not reflective of our underlying operations in the period. These comparable measures are calculated on a consistent basis from period to period and are adjusted for specific items in each period, as applicable except as otherwise described in the Condensed consolidated financial statements and MD&A. Refer to: (i) each business segment and the discontinued operations section for a reconciliation of comparable EBITDA to segmented earnings (losses); (ii) Consolidated results section and the discontinued operations section for reconciliations of comparable earnings and comparable earnings per common share to Net income attributable to common shares and Net income per common share, respectively; and (iii) Financial condition section for a reconciliation of comparable funds generated from operations to Net cash provided by operations. Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section of the MD&A in our most recent quarterly report for more information about the non-GAAP measures we use. The MD&A is included with, and forms part of, this release. The MD&A can be found on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca under TC Energy’s profile.

    This release contains references to build multiple, which is non-GAAP ratio which is calculated using capital expenditures and comparable EBITDA, of which comparable EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. We believe build multiple provides investors with a useful measure to evaluate capital projects.

    With respect to non-GAAP measures used in the calculation of debt-to-EBITDA, adjusted debt is defined as the sum of Reported total debt, including Notes payable, Long-term debt, Current portion of long-term debt and Junior subordinated notes, as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet as well as Operating lease liabilities recognized on our Consolidated balance sheet and 50 per cent of Preferred shares as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet due to the debt-like nature of their contractual and financial obligations, less Cash and cash equivalents as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet and 50 per cent of Junior subordinated notes as reported on our Consolidated balance sheet due to the equity-like nature of their contractual and financial obligations. Adjusted comparable EBITDA is calculated as the sum of comparable EBITDA from continuing operations and comparable EBITDA from discontinued operations excluding Operating lease costs recorded in Plant operating costs and other in our Consolidated statement of income and adjusted for Distributions received in excess of (income) loss from equity investments as reported in our Consolidated statement of cash flows which we believe is more reflective of the cash flows available to TC Energy to service our debt and other long-term commitments. We believe that debt-to-EBITDA provides investors with useful information as it reflects our ability to service our debt and other long-term commitments. See the Reconciliation section for reconciliations of adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

    This release also contains references to net capital expenditures, which is a supplementary financial measure. Net capital expenditures represent capital costs incurred for growth projects, maintenance capital expenditures, contributions to equity investments and projects under development, adjusted for the portion attributed to non-controlling interests in the entities we control. Net capital expenditures reflect capital costs incurred during the period, excluding the impact of timing of cash payments. We use net capital expenditures as a key measure in evaluating our performance in managing our capital spending activities in comparison to our capital plan.

    1 Comparable EBITDA, comparable earnings and comparable earnings per common share are non-GAAP measures used throughout this news release. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The most directly comparable GAAP measures are Segmented earnings, Net income attributable to common shares and Net income per common share, respectively. We do not forecast Segmented earnings. For more information on non-GAAP measures, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    2 Prior year results have been recast to reflect the Liquids Pipelines business as a discontinued operation as a result of the Spinoff Transaction.

    3 Based on USD/CAD foreign exchange rate of 1.35 for the second half of 2025.

    4 Net capital expenditures are adjusted for the portion attributed to non-controlling interests and is a supplementary financial measure used throughout this news release. For more information on non-GAAP measures and the supplementary financial measure, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    5 Build multiple is a non-GAAP ratio calculated by dividing capital expenditures by comparable EBITDA. Please note our method for calculating build multiple may differ from methods used by other entities. Therefore, it may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other entities. For more information on non-GAAP measures and the supplementary financial measure, refer to the Non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release.

    6 Debt-to-EBITDA is a non-GAAP ratio. Adjusted debt and adjusted comparable EBITDA are non-GAAP measures used to calculate debt-to-EBITDA. For more information on non-GAAP measures, refer to the non-GAAP and Supplementary financial measure section of this news release. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under GAAP and therefore are unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

  • MIL-OSI: Real Matters Reports Third Quarter Financial Results

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    (all amounts are expressed in millions of U.S. dollars, excluding per share amounts and unless otherwise stated)

    TORONTO, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Real Matters Inc. (TSX: REAL) (“Real Matters” or the “Company”), a leading network management services platform for the mortgage and insurance industries, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended June 30, 2025.

    “Consolidated revenues increased 22% sequentially in the third quarter to $45.4 million, in line with a seasonal uptick in U.S. Appraisal purchase mortgage market volumes and double-digit revenue growth in all three segments. We posted positive consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(A) of $0.3 million, up from a loss of $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2025,” said Real Matters Chief Executive Officer Brian Lang.

    “We continued to launch new clients in the third quarter across all three of our segments and performed at the top of lender scorecards. Subsequent to quarter end, we also went live with our second Tier 1 lender in U.S. Title and added a new top-15 lender in U.S. Appraisal,” added Lang. “Overall, we remain on track with the execution of our strategy which is focused on growing market share and readying the business to scale up when mortgage market volumes normalize.”

    “The number of mortgages being originated at higher interest rates continues to rise, steadily expanding the pool of potential refinance candidates,” concluded Lang. “Currently, nearly 12 million mortgages have rates above 6%, and approximately 8 million of those mortgages have rates above 6.5%. This presents a significant opportunity for us once the rate environment begins to shift – and we are strategically positioned to capitalize on it.”

    Q3 2025 Summary

    • Consolidated revenue of $45.4 million, down 8% year-over-year as increased revenue in our U.S. Title segment was offset by lower year-over-year U.S. Appraisal revenue
    • Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA(A) of $0.3 million compared with $1.7 million in Q3’24
    • Net loss of $4.9 million, down from net income of $1.7 million in Q3’24 primarily due to an increase of $5.6 in net foreign exchange loss
    • Launched four new clients
    • Real Matters’ U.S. Appraisal mortgage origination volumes were down 16% year-over-year mainly due to lower purchase origination volumes
    • Real Matters’ U.S. Title mortgage origination volumes up 52% year-over-year due to net market share gains with clients and higher refinance origination market volumes
    • Cash and cash equivalents of $43.8 million and no outstanding debt as at June 30, 2025

    (A) Non-GAAP Measures
    The non-GAAP measures used in this news release, including Net Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS® Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. These non-GAAP measures are more fully defined and discussed in the Company’s MD&A for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 under the heading “Non-GAAP measures”, which is incorporated by reference in this Press Release and available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

    Real Matters financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 are included in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying MD&A, each of which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. In addition, supplemental information is available on our website at www.realmatters.com.

    Net Revenue represents the difference between revenues and transaction costs. Net Revenue margin is calculated as Net Revenue divided by Revenues. The reconciling items between net income or loss and Net Revenue were as follows:

    Adjusted EBITDA represents net income or loss before stock-based compensation expense, amortization, restructuring expenses, interest expense, interest income, net foreign exchange gain or loss, gain or loss on fair value of derivatives and income tax expense or recovery. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Net Revenue. The reconciling items between net income or loss and Adjusted EBITDA were as follows:

  • MIL-OSI: CSW Industrials Reports Record Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Results

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    DALLAS, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CSW Industrials, Inc. (NYSE: CSW or the “Company”) today reported record results for the fiscal 2026 first quarter period ended June 30, 2025.

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Highlights (comparisons to fiscal 2025 first quarter)

    • Total revenue increased 16.6% to a first quarter record of $263.6 million, driven by the recent acquisitions of Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks
    • Net income attributable to CSW of $40.9 million, increased 6.0% to a first quarter record, compared to $38.6 million
    • Earnings per diluted share (“EPS”) of $2.43, decreased 1.9% when compared to $2.47
    • Adjusted EPS of $2.85, excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, increased 2.5% when compared to $2.78
    • EBITDA grew 5.3% to a first quarter record of $68.7 million
    • Paid down $40 million of debt at quarter-end, strengthening the balance sheet after borrowing $135 million for the Aspen Manufacturing acquisition during the quarter, resulting in a net leverage ratio (net Debt to EBITDA), in accordance with our credit facility, of 0.2x

    Comments from the Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer

    Joseph B. Armes, CSW Industrials’ Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am very pleased to announce record revenue, net income, EBITDA, and adjusted EPS for the fiscal first quarter. These results were driven by the outstanding performance of our strategic acquisitions of PSP Products, PF WaterWorks, and, most recently, Aspen Manufacturing, which added complimentary, US manufactured, repair-focused air handlers and evaporator coils to the attractive HVAC/R end market. As we have demonstrated over the past decade, our disciplined allocation of capital to acquisitions of innovative products fuels additional future organic revenue growth by adding vitality to our product portfolio while increasing our market share.”

    Armes continued, “Organic volumes were down in the quarter off a challenging comparison, mostly driven by softer demand for products tied to weak housing activity. As we discussed on our previous earnings call, we continue to anticipate delivering full year organic growth in revenue and adjusted EBITDA for each segment, along with consolidated EPS growth and stronger operating cash flow, recognizing that timing can create quarterly fluctuations.”

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Consolidated Results

    Fiscal first quarter revenue was $263.6 million, a $37.5 million or 16.6% increase over the prior year period. Total revenue growth included $43.7 million or 19.3% inorganic growth contributed by the Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks acquisitions, which are all reported within the Contractor Solutions segment, offset by a slight reduction in organic revenue of $6.2 million or 2.8%.

    Gross profit in the fiscal first quarter was $115.4 million, representing 7.5% growth over $107.4 million in the prior year period. Gross margin contracted 370 bps to 43.8%, compared to 47.5% in the prior year period. The gross margin decrease was primarily a result of the inclusion of recent acquisitions, unfavorable quarterly impact of sales mix and volume leverage, and the inflation of some material costs, including the direct and indirect impact from tariffs.

    Operating expenses were $60.6 million in the current fiscal quarter, compared to $52.4 million in the prior fiscal quarter due to additional expenses related to acquired companies. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 23.0%, slightly lower than the prior year period of 23.2%.

    Operating income in the current period was $54.9 million compared to $55.1 million in the prior year period. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 20.8%, compared to 24.3% in the prior year period. The decrease in operating margin was a result of the previously mentioned contraction in the gross margin.

    Interest expense, net of interest income, was $1.0 million, compared to interest expense of $2.5 million in the prior year period. The $1.5 million decrease in interest expense was a result of reduced average borrowing during the current fiscal quarter and one month of interest income earned on cash balances prior to funding the Aspen acquisition on May 1, 2025.

    Net income attributable to CSW (net of non-controlling interest in the joint venture) increased 6.0% to $40.9 million compared to the prior year period of $38.6 million. EPS was $2.43, compared to $2.47 in the prior period due to the incremental increase in shares outstanding resulting from the follow-on equity offering in September 2025. Adjusted EPS, after excluding the amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, increased 2.5% to $2.85, compared to $2.78 in the prior year period.

    Fiscal 2026 first quarter EBITDA increased 5.3% to a record $68.7 million, up from $65.3 million in the prior year period. EBITDA margin contracted 280 bps to 26.1%, compared to 28.9% in the prior year period due to the contraction in gross margin offset slightly by leverage on operating expenses.

    The quarterly cash flows from operations of $60.6 million were mostly comparable to $62.7 million in the prior year period, with some routine fluctuations in working capital.

    Free cash flow, defined as cash flow from operations minus capital expenditures, was $57.7 million, as compared to $59.6 million in the prior year period.

    Following quarter-end, the Company announced its twenty-sixth consecutive regular quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.27 per share, which will be paid on August 8, 2025, to shareholders of record on July 25, 2025.

    The Company’s effective tax rate for the fiscal first quarter was 24.3%, as compared to 26.4% in the prior year period.

    Fiscal 2026 First Quarter Segment Results

    Contractor Solutions segment revenue was $196.7 million, a $36.3 million or 22.6% increase over the prior year period, comprised of inorganic growth of $43.7 million from the recent acquisitions of Aspen Manufacturing, PSP Products, and PF WaterWorks, offset by a 4.6% or $7.4 million reduction in organic revenue from decreased unit volumes. Organic unit volumes were down in the current quarter due to soft housing activity, a one-time stock up of inventory in the prior year period for a customer’s added distribution center network, higher preseason sales in our fiscal fourth quarter ended March 31, 2025, and consumers’ shift to repair of HVAC units versus replacement. As compared to the prior year period, net revenue growth was driven by the HVAC/R, electrical, and plumbing end markets. Segment operating income improved to $52.8 million compared to $49.9 million in the prior year period. The incremental profit resulted from the inclusion of recently acquired businesses and was partially offset by the impact of lower organic sales, as well as unfavorable volume leverage and sales mix. Segment operating income margin for the fiscal first quarter was 26.8% compared to 31.1% in the prior year period primarily due to the gross margin impact of recent acquisitions on our overall profit margin. Segment EBITDA in the fiscal first quarter increased 11.6% to $65.0 million, or 33.0% of revenue, compared to $58.3 million, or 36.3% of revenue in the prior year period.

    Specialized Reliability Solutions segment revenue was $36.8 million, flat to revenue reported in the prior year period. Revenue increased in the mining and energy end markets and declined in the general industrial and rail transportation end markets. Segment operating income was $5.2 million, as compared to $7.2 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 26.7%. Segment operating income margin for the fiscal first quarter was 14.2%, compared to the prior year period of 19.4% as a result of an escalation in commodity pricing, one-time expenses associated with the consolidation of a manufacturing facility, and unfavorable sales mix. Segment EBITDA in the fiscal first quarter was $6.5 million, or 17.7% of revenue, compared to $8.5 million, or 23.1% of revenue in the prior year period.

    Engineered Building Solutions segment revenue was $31.9 million, a 3.2% increase compared to $30.9 million in the prior year period. Segment operating income was $4.0 million, or 12.5% of revenue, as compared to the prior year period of $5.7 million, or 18.5% of revenue. The reduction in operating income was driven by the inflation of some project costs due to tariffs, as well as growth investment in the sales team and R&D to pursue prospective revenue opportunities. Segment EBITDA and EBITDA margin in the fiscal first quarter were $4.4 million and 13.9%, respectively, compared to $6.2 million and 20.1%, respectively, in the prior year period.

    All percentages are calculated based upon the attached financial statements. Share counts used in determining the diluted EPS are based on a weighted average of outstanding shares throughout the reporting period.

    The forward-looking statements included in this press release are based on our current expectations, projections, estimates, and assumptions. These statements are only predictions, not guarantees. Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from what is forecast in such forward-looking statements, and include, without limitation, the risk factors described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    This press release includes an analysis of adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to CSW, adjusted net income attributable to CSW, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted operating income and free cash flows, which are non-GAAP financial measures of performance. Attributable to CSW is defined to exclude the income attributable to the non-controlling interest in the Whitmore JV.

    CSW utilizes adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization) as an additional consolidated, non-GAAP financial measure, which consists of consolidated net income including income attributable to the non-controlling interest in the Whitmore JV, adjusted to remove the impact of income taxes, interest expense, depreciation, amortization and impairment, and significant nonrecurring items.

    For a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures and for a discussion of why we consider these non-GAAP measures useful, see the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” section of this release.

    Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

    We use adjusted earnings per share attributable to CSW, adjusted net income attributable to CSW, adjusted operating income, adjusted effective tax rate, and adjusted EBITDA, together with financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as revenue, cost of revenue, operating expense, operating income and net income attributable to CSW, to assess our historical and prospective operating performance and to enhance our understanding of our core operating performance. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures. We also believe these measures are useful for investors to assess the operating performance of our business without the effect of non-recurring items. In the following tables, there could be immaterial differences in amounts presented due to rounding.

  • Markets end lower amid volatility; FMCG stocks lend support

    Indian equity markets closed marginally lower on Thursday after a volatile trading session marked by global uncertainties. Despite the imposition of tariffs by the United States on Indian imports, domestic indices managed to avert a sharp selloff, buoyed by buying interest in fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) stocks.

    The benchmark Sensex closed at 81,185.58, shedding 296.28 points or 0.36 per cent. It had opened sharply lower at 80,695.50 following weak global cues but briefly rebounded in the afternoon session, touching an intraday high of 81,803.27 before slipping again in the final hour due to the expiry of monthly derivatives.

    The Nifty 50 settled at 24,768.35, down 86.70 points or 0.35 per cent.

    Market analysts said the indices reflected the underlying strength of the Indian economy, which continues to show resilience amid global headwinds. “Investors gravitated toward domestically oriented, non-discretionary players, especially FMCG, which offered attractive valuations, demand outlook and relative insulation from tariff risks,” analysts noted.

    Hindustan Unilever led the gains on the back of encouraging quarterly results, lifting the Nifty FMCG index by 791 points or 1.44 per cent. ITC, Kotak Mahindra Bank, and Eternal were also among the gainers.

    On the downside, major drag came from heavyweight stocks like Tata Steel, Sun Pharma, NTPC, Reliance, Asian Paints, L&T, and Titan, which contributed to the day’s losses. Most sectoral indices ended in the red. Nifty Auto declined by 89 points, Nifty IT slipped 180 points, and Nifty Bank was down by 188 points.

    The broader market reflected a similar sentiment with the Nifty Midcap 100 falling 0.93 per cent and Nifty Smallcap 100 down 1.05 per cent, indicating profit booking across segments.

    Despite the subdued closing, market experts remain cautiously optimistic, citing strong domestic fundamentals and the rotation of investor interest toward sectors less exposed to global trade tensions.

  • MIL-OSI: Bitcoin Swift Launches Stage 2 of Presale With Programmable Staking Rewards and Audited Infrastructure

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LUXEMBOURG, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitcoin Swift (BTC3), a modular blockchain protocol built for programmable finance, has officially entered Stage 2 of its 64-day presale. The project introduces smart contract automation, zero-knowledge privacy systems, and real-time staking rewards starting from day one.

    Unlike traditional blockchain protocols that depend on static systems, Bitcoin Swift incorporates embedded AI agents into its smart contracts. These contracts adjust to network conditions and participant behavior, optimizing outcomes over time. The technology stack includes a WASM engine, zk-SNARK-based privacy, and decentralized identity (DID) tools, creating a platform that combines user privacy with regulatory adaptability.

    Presale Participation Includes Real-Time Staking Rewards

    Participants in the presale can access programmable staking rewards through Bitcoin Swift’s Proof-of-Yield (PoY) system. This system moves beyond static emission models by dynamically adjusting rewards based on user activity and environmental performance. These features are live and integrated at the protocol level, with no requirement to wait for future updates.

    Currently in Stage 2 of its 64-day presale, Bitcoin Swift is gaining momentum across both crypto-native and institutional communities. Backed by KYC verification and audits from SpyWolf and SolidProof, the project is building trust while delivering innovation.

    Key Features of the Bitcoin Swift Protocol:

    • AI-powered smart contracts that evolve over time using reinforcement learning
    • zk-SNARK-based privacy architecture allowing for confidential yet auditable transactions
    • DID-based identity layer enabling selective disclosure and reputation-based governance
    • Hybrid consensus mechanism optimized for scalability and regulatory alignment

    Ecosystem Development and Market Reception

    As Bitcoin Swift gains attention, the project is engaging with the broader crypto community to explain its technical innovations. Influencers and ecosystem participants have highlighted the protocol’s integrated reward system, privacy tools, and modular structure as notable developments during the current market cycle.

    The team plans to release further updates during the presale window, including testnet onboarding and early adopter tutorials to support long-term engagement.

    Influencers Are Taking Notice

    Crypto influencers are already spotlighting BTC3 as a unique presale opportunity. Their coverage points to the chain’s advanced tech and early-stage reward structure.

    Notes
       
    (1) Earnings per share (diluted) adjusts for the dilutive effect of the potential issuance of incremental shares of our common stock.

    We assume the settlement of all of our Redeemable non-controlling interests using the maximum number of shares permitted under our arrangements. The issuance of shares and the related income acquired are excluded from the calculation if an assumed purchase of Redeemable non-controlling interests would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

    We are required to apply the if-converted method to our outstanding junior convertible securities when calculating Earnings per share (diluted). Under the if-converted method, shares that are issuable upon conversion are deemed outstanding, regardless of whether the securities are contractually convertible into our common stock at that time. For this calculation, the interest expense (net of tax) attributable to these dilutive securities is added back to Net income (controlling interest), reflecting the assumption that the securities have been converted. Issuable shares for these securities and related interest expense are excluded from the calculation if an assumed conversion would be anti-dilutive to diluted earnings per share.

    The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

       
        Three Months Ended   Six Months Ended

      Interest expense on junior convertible securities, net of taxes   3.4       3.4       6.7       6.7

      Junior convertible securities   1.7       1.7       1.7       1.7  
      Average shares outstanding (diluted)   35.3       31.4       36.0       32.3  
                                     
    (2) As supplemental information, we provide non-GAAP performance measures of Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest), Economic net income (controlling interest), and Economic earnings per share. We believe that many investors use our Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) when comparing our financial performance to other companies in the investment management industry. Management utilizes these non-GAAP performance measures to assess our performance before our share of certain non-cash GAAP expenses primarily related to the acquisition of interests in Affiliates and to improve comparability between periods. Economic net income (controlling interest) and Economic earnings per share are used by management and our Board of Directors as our principal performance benchmarks, including as one of the measures for determining executive compensation. These non-GAAP performance measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, Net income (controlling interest), Earnings per share, or other GAAP performance measures. For additional information on our non-GAAP measures, see our most recent Annual and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-K and 10-Q, respectively, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

    Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) represents our performance before our share of interest expense, income and certain non-income based taxes, depreciation, amortization, impairments, gains and losses related to Affiliate Transactions, and non-cash items such as certain Affiliate equity activity, gains and losses on our contingent payment obligations, and unrealized gains and losses on seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments. Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest) is also adjusted to include realized economic gains and losses related to these seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.

    Under our Economic net income (controlling interest) definition, we adjust Net income (controlling interest) for our share of pre-tax intangible amortization and impairments related to intangible assets (including the portion attributable to equity method investments in Affiliates) because these expenses do not correspond to the changes in the value of these assets, which do not diminish predictably over time. We also adjust for deferred taxes attributable to intangible assets because we believe it is unlikely these accruals will be used to settle material tax obligations. Further, we adjust for gains and losses related to Affiliate Transactions, net of tax, and other economic items. Other economic items include certain Affiliate equity activity, gains and losses related to contingent payment obligations, tax windfalls and shortfalls from share-based compensation, unrealized gains and losses on seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments, and realized economic gains and losses related to these seed capital, general partner commitments, and other strategic investments.

    Economic earnings per share represents Economic net income (controlling interest) divided by the Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted). In this calculation, we exclude the potential shares issued upon settlement of Redeemable non-controlling interests from Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) because we intend to settle those obligations without issuing shares, consistent with all prior Affiliate equity purchase transactions. The potential share issuance in connection with our junior convertible securities is measured using a “treasury stock” method. Under this method, only the net number of shares of common stock equal to the value of the junior convertible securities in excess of par, if any, are deemed to be outstanding. We believe the inclusion of net shares under a treasury stock method best reflects the benefit of the increase in available capital resources (which could be used to repurchase shares of our common stock) that occurs when these securities are converted and we are relieved of our debt obligation.

    The following table provides a reconciliation of Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted):

       

       

        Three Months Ended   Six Months Ended
      (in millions) 6/30/2024   6/30/2025   6/30/2024   6/30/2025
      Average shares outstanding (diluted) 35.3     31.4     36.0     32.3  
      Hypothetical issuance of shares to settle Redeemable non-controlling interests (0.2 )   (0.2 )   (0.3 )   (0.6 )
      Junior convertible securities (1.7 )   (1.7 )   (1.7 )   (1.7 )
      Average shares outstanding (adjusted diluted) 33.4     29.5     34.0     30.0  
                             
    (3) The following table presents pre-tax equity method earnings, equity method intangible amortization and impairments, and equity method income tax, which in aggregate form Equity method income (net):
       
        Three Months Ended   Six Months Ended
      (in millions) 6/30/2024   6/30/2025   6/30/2024   6/30/2025
      Pre-tax equity method earnings $ 80.3     $ 94.1     $ 222.8     $ 193.6  
      Equity method intangible amortization and impairments   (60.8 )     (27.0 )     (81.6 )     (45.6 )
      Equity method income tax   (1.4 )     (1.5 )     (5.5 )     (7.1 )
      Equity method income (net) $ 18.1     $ 65.6     $ 135.7     $ 140.9  
                                     
    (4) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, other economic items and other items include a one-time expense of $30.5 million which resulted from a modification of Affiliate equity which, consistent with the definitions of our non-GAAP performance measures, has been added back to Economic net income (controlling interest) and Adjusted EBITDA (controlling interest).

    • Non-GAAP operating income is expected to be between $2.3 million to $3.3 million.

    For the full year 2025, we currently expect:

    • Total revenue between $339.6 million and $346.6 million.
    • Non-GAAP operating income between $19 million and $25 million.

    Our third quarter and 2025 financial outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside our control. If actual results vary from these assumptions, our expectations may change. There can be no assurance that we will achieve these results.

    We do not provide guidance for loss from operations , the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Non-GAAP operating income, and similarly cannot provide a reconciliation between its forecasted Non-GAAP operating income and Non-GAAP income per share and these comparable GAAP measures without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain items. These items are not within our control and may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “outlook,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “project,” “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “can,” “predict,” “potential,” “strategy,” “target,” “explore,” “continue,” or the negative of these terms, and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These statements may relate to our ability to successfully execute our rebranding initiative, our increased focus on AI enablement, market size and growth strategy, our estimated and projected costs, margins, revenue, expenditures and customer and financial growth rates, our Q3 and fiscal 2025 financial outlook, our plans and objectives for future operations, growth, initiatives or strategies. By their nature, these statements are subject to numerous uncertainties and risks, including factors beyond our control, that could cause actual results, performance or achievement to differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. These assumptions, uncertainties and risks include that, among others, our business would be harmed by any decline in new customers, renewals or upgrades, our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our prospects and future results of operations, we operate in competitive markets, we may not be able to sustain our revenue growth rate in the future, our business would be harmed by any significant interruptions, delays or outages in services from our platform or certain social media platforms, and a cybersecurity-related attack, significant data breach or disruption of the information technology systems or networks could negatively affect our business. Additional risks and uncertainties that could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements are included under the caption “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and the future quarterly and current reports that we file with the SEC. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements are made and are based on information available to Commerce at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events. Commerce assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, except as required by law.

    Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    We have provided in this press release certain financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Our management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believes that use of these Non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar Non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP and should be read only in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of our historical Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations.

    Annual Revenue Run-Rate

    We calculate annual revenue run-rate at the end of each month as the sum of: (1) contractual monthly recurring revenue at the end of the period, which includes platform subscription fees, invoiced growth adjustments, feed management subscription fees, recurring professional services revenue, and other recurring revenue, multiplied by twelve to prospectively annualize recurring revenue, and (2) the sum of the trailing twelve-month non-recurring and variable revenue, which includes one-time partner integrations, one-time fees, payments revenue share, and any other revenue that is non-recurring and variable.

    Enterprise Account Metrics

    To measure the effectiveness of our ability to execute against our growth strategy, we calculate ARR attributable to Enterprise Accounts. We define Enterprise Accounts as accounts with at least one unique Enterprise plan subscription or an enterprise level feed management subscription (collectively “Enterprise Accounts”). These accounts may have more than one Enterprise plan or a combination of Enterprise plans and non-enterprise plans.

    Average Revenue Per Account

    We calculate average revenue per account (“ARPA”) for accounts in the Enterprise cohort at the end of a period by including customer-billed revenue and an allocation of partner and services revenue, where applicable. We allocate partner revenue, where applicable, primarily based on each customer’s share of gross merchandise volume (“GMV”) processed through that partner’s solution. For partner revenue that is not directly linked to customer usage of a partner’s solution, we allocate such revenue based on each customer’s share of total platform GMV. Each account’s partner revenue allocation is calculated by taking the account’s trailing twelve-month partner revenue, then dividing by twelve to create a monthly average to apply to the applicable period in order to normalize ARPA for seasonality.

    Adjusted EBITDA

    We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related costs, restructuring charges, depreciation, gain on convertible notes extinguishment, interest income, interest expense, other expense, and our provision or benefit for income taxes.

    Acquisition related costs include contingent compensation arrangements entered into in connection with acquisitions and achieved earnout related to an acquisition.

    Restructuring charges include severance benefits, right-of-use asset impairments, lease termination gain, software impairments, accelerated depreciation and amortization, and professional services costs.

    Depreciation includes depreciation expenses related to the Company’s fixed assets.

    The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net loss.

    Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss)

    We define Non-GAAP Operating Income (Loss) as our GAAP Loss from operations, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related costs, and restructuring charges. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our loss from operations.

    Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss)

    We define Non-GAAP Net Income (Loss) as our GAAP net loss, excluding the impact of stock-based compensation expense and related payroll tax costs, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition related costs, restructuring charges, and gain on convertible notes extinguishment. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our net loss.

    Non-GAAP Basic and Dilutive Net Income (Loss) per Share

    We define Non-GAAP Basic and Dilutive Net Income (Loss) per Share as our Non-GAAP net income (loss), defined above, divided by our basic and diluted GAAP weighted average shares outstanding. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our basic net loss per share.

    Free Cash Flow

    We define Free Cash flow as our GAAP cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less our cash paid for website domain name and GAAP purchases of property, equipment, leasehold improvements and capitalized internal-use software (Capital Expenditures). The most directly comparable GAAP measure is our cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding Codere Online Luxembourg, S.A. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Codere Online”) or Codere Online’s or its management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this document may include, for example, statements about Codere Online’s financial performance and, in particular, the potential evolution and distribution of its net gaming revenue; any prospective and illustrative financial information; and changes in Codere Online’s strategy, future operations and target addressable market, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans.

    These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this document and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing Codere Online’s or its management team’s views as of any subsequent date, and Codere Online does not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws.

    As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, Codere Online’s actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that Codere Online does not presently know or that Codere Online currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include (i) changes in applicable laws or regulations, including online gaming, privacy, data use and data protection rules and regulations as well as consumers’ heightened expectations regarding proper safeguarding of their personal information, (ii) the impacts and ongoing uncertainties created by regulatory restrictions, changes in perceptions of the gaming industry, changes in policies and increased competition, and geopolitical events such as war, (iii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations and identify and realize additional opportunities, (iv) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which Codere Online operates, (v) the risk that Codere Online and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize Codere Online’s services, or experience significant delays in doing so, (vi) the risk that Codere Online may never achieve or sustain profitability, (vii) the risk that Codere Online will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all, (viii) the risk that Codere Online experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations, (ix) the risk that third-party providers, including the Codere Group, are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations, (x) the risk that the online gaming operations will not provide the expected benefits due to, among other things, the inability to obtain or maintain online gaming licenses in the anticipated time frame or at all, (xi) the risk that Codere Online is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property, (xii) the risk that Codere Online’s securities may be delisted from Nasdaq and (xiii) the possibility that Codere Online may be adversely affected by other political, economic, business, and/or competitive factors. Additional information concerning certain of these and other risk factors is contained in Codere Online’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning Codere Online or other matters and attributable to Codere Online or any person acting on their behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements above.

    Financial Information and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    Codere Online’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), which can differ in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

    This document includes certain financial measures not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS (“non-GAAP”), such as, without limitation, net gaming revenue, Adjusted EBITDA and constant currency information. These non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with U.S. GAAP or IFRS and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing Codere Online’s financial results. Therefore, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to revenue, net income, cash flows from operations or other measures of profitability, liquidity or performance under U.S. GAAP or IFRS. You should be aware that Codere Online’s presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. In addition, the audit of Codere Online’s financial statements in accordance with PCAOB standards, may impact how Codere Online currently calculates its non-GAAP financial measures, and we cannot assure you that there would not be differences, and such differences could be material.

    Codere Online believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends in comparing Codere Online’s financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors. These non-GAAP financial measures are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable measure under IFRS are included herein.

    This document may include certain projections of non-GAAP financial measures. Codere Online is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP or IFRS financial measures without unreasonable effort, due to the inherent difficulty and variability of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such comparable measures or such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, ascertained or assessed, which could have a material impact on its future IFRS financial results. Consequently, no disclosure of estimated comparable U.S. GAAP or IFRS measures is included and no reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures is included.

    Use of Projections
    This document contains financial forecasts with respect to Codere Online’s business and projected financial results, including net gaming revenue and adjusted EBITDA. Codere Online’s independent auditors have not audited, reviewed, compiled or performed any procedures with respect to the projections for the purpose of their inclusion in this document, and accordingly, they did not express an opinion or provide any other form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this document. These projections should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying the prospective financial information are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information. See “Forward-Looking Statements” above. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the prospective results are indicative of the future performance of Codere Online or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the prospective financial information. Inclusion of the prospective financial information in this document should not be regarded as a representation by any person that the results contained in the prospective financial information will be achieved.

    For further information on the limitations and assumptions underlying these projections, please refer to Codere Online’s filings with the SEC.

    Preliminary Information
    This document contains figures, financial metrics, statistics and other information that is preliminary and subject to change (the “Preliminary Information”). The Preliminary Information has not been audited, reviewed, or compiled by any independent registered public accounting firm. This Preliminary Information is subject to ongoing review including, where applicable, by Codere Online’s independent auditors. Accordingly, no independent registered public accounting firm has expressed an opinion or any other form of assurance with respect to the Preliminary Information. During the course of finalizing such Preliminary Information, adjustments to such Preliminary Information presented herein may be identified, which may be material. Codere Online undertakes no obligation to update or revise the Preliminary Information set forth in this document as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. The Preliminary Information may differ from actual results. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance upon this Preliminary Information. The Preliminary Information is not a comprehensive statement of financial results, and should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the Preliminary Information is not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved in any future period.

    No Offer or Solicitation

  • MIL-OSI Africa: Op-Ed: Financing Energy Access in Africa: Leveraging Fossil Fuel Revenues to End Energy Poverty (By NJ Ayuk)

    Source: APO – Report:

    NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber (https://EnergyChamber.org)

    In an emissions-focused world, do oil and gas revenues have a role to play in ending energy poverty in Africa? It may sound counterintuitive, but many would argue that they do, albeit as enablers of a future powered by alternative energy sources.

    The key lies in recognizing that Africa’s situation is unique, and solutions take time, building on what we have and what we can do with it. This means that, in working towards a just energy transition, the continent’s oil and gas resources shouldn’t be viewed as obstacles that need to be immediately replaced by renewable energy sources. Instead, rather than prematurely phasing out fossil fuels in response to global pressure, Africa should harness these revenues responsibly to finance its energy transition and ultimately eradicate energy poverty.

    Prioritizing Development Alongside Sustainability

    Nearly 600 million Africans still live without access to electricity (https://apo-opa.co/3U6V4uH). This access is a fundamental human right, yet energy poverty remains one of the continent’s most significant barriers to development. This undermines health systems, education, industrialization, and dignity. As the world debates how to rapidly achieve net-zero, Africa’s priority is different: how to power its people now, while building a sustainable future.

    Measuring Africa’s energy transition progress against external calls for an abrupt end to fossil fuels risks leaving millions behind. Our continent contributes less than 4% (https://apo-opa.co/4odEQxF) to global emissions, yet we are expected to decarbonize at the same pace as industrialized nations that built their wealth on hydrocarbons.

    Instead, the continent’s abundance of fossil fuels should be viewed as a bridge, not a barrier. The African Energy Chamber (AEC) Africa-Paris Declaration (https://apo-opa.co/3GO1ImM) underscores this principle – Africa’s oil and gas revenues can and must be used as a financial lever to invest in electrification, clean energy, and infrastructure projects. This pragmatic and just approach prioritizes development alongside sustainability, not instead of.

    There are several ways to achieve this. First, reinvesting oil and gas revenues into rural electrification can transform communities. Decentralized solutions like off-grid solar and mini-grids offer practical ways to reach remote areas. Although urban dwellers do experience power outages, for many rural populations, it’s a way of life. For the mother cooking with firewood or the student studying by candlelight, a small solar grid is life-changing. Fossil fuel revenues can finance these systems at scale, bridging the immediate access gap while longer-term grid expansions are in progress.

    Second, establishing innovative financing mechanisms is essential. For instance, the fledgling Africa Energy Bank (https://apo-opa.co/4l5R2Of) aims to bridge the continent’s estimated $31 billion to $50 billion annual energy funding gap by focusing predominantly on financing energy projects. Launched in 2025, the bank is poised to play a transformative role in mobilizing capital for African energy projects. Additionally, global investors are increasingly exploring energy investment opportunities in Africa. In support of this, development finance institutions, such as the African Development Bank, the World Bank, and the International Finance Corporation, are de-risking investments by offering concessional loans, guarantees, and technical assistance, making investment in African energy projects more attractive. 

    Third, policy reforms that create enabling environments are critical. Here, governments have a role to play in prioritizing revenue-generating projects, creating stable regulatory frameworks, and offering incentives for public-private partnerships. This will support investment, reduce risks, and unlock the transformative power of energy access.

    These solutions demonstrate the importance of a fair and equitable transition and the vital role that fossil fuels will continue to play in achieving this goal. They also prove that this goal is achievable, even if it is on the continent’s own terms.

    Unique Solutions to Africa’s Energy Challenges

    Africa’s path to net-zero has the same end goal as the rest of the world, but it can’t mirror their journey. Our starting points are different, and our development needs are urgent. We understand that climate action can’t be delayed. But it can be just, inclusive, and rooted in African realities. And it can also be supported by revenues from our abundant natural resources.  

    The Africa-Paris Declaration notes that ‘a fair transition recognizes that fossil fuels remain valuable for Africa’s development, prosperity, and energy access goals. Africa doesn’t need to choose between oil and gas or renewables. Given our current position, all are important and require both strategic and sensible deployment. Fossil fuels generate the revenues to invest in solar, wind, hydropower, and grid infrastructure. They fuel industries that create jobs. They support healthcare, education, and innovation.

    When managed responsibly, Africa’s fossil fuel revenue can serve as a bridge to a brighter, greener, and more prosperous continent. Will it be quick and easy? No. Will some question the approach? Most certainly. But the alternative is leaving hundreds of millions of people in the dark.

    Why DT Midstream Uses Operating Earnings, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow

    Use of Operating Earnings Information – Operating Earnings exclude non-recurring items, certain mark-to-market adjustments and discontinued operations. DT Midstream management believes that Operating Earnings provide a more meaningful representation of the company’s earnings from ongoing operations and uses Operating Earnings as the primary performance measurement for external communications with analysts and investors. Internally, DT Midstream uses Operating Earnings to measure performance against budget and to report to the Board of Directors.

    Adjusted EBITDA is defined as GAAP net income attributable to DT Midstream before expenses for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and loss from financing activities, further adjusted to include the proportional share of net income from equity method investees (excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and to exclude certain items the company considers non-routine. DT Midstream believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful to the company and external users of DT Midstream’s financial statements in understanding operating results and the ongoing performance of the underlying business because it allows management and investors to have a better understanding of actual operating performance unaffected by the impact of interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and non-routine charges noted in the table below. We believe the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is meaningful to investors because it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the midstream industry to evaluate a company’s operating performance without regard to items excluded from the calculation of such measure, which can vary substantially from company to company depending on accounting methods, book value of assets, capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired, among other factors. DT Midstream uses Adjusted EBITDA to assess the company’s performance by reportable segment and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting.

    Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) is calculated by deducting earnings from equity method investees, depreciation and amortization attributable to noncontrolling interests, cash interest expense, maintenance capital investment (as defined below), and cash taxes from, and adding interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, certain items we consider non-routine and dividends and distributions from equity method investees to, Net Income Attributable to DT Midstream. Maintenance capital investment is defined as the total capital expenditures used to maintain or preserve assets or fulfill contractual obligations that do not generate incremental earnings. We believe DCF is a meaningful performance measurement because it is useful to us and external users of our financial statements in estimating the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and making maintenance capital investments, which could be used for discretionary purposes such as common stock dividends, retirement of debt or expansion capital expenditures.

    In this release, DT Midstream provides 2025 and 2026 Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA as projected for full-year 2025 and 2026 is not provided. DT Midstream does not forecast net income as it cannot, without unreasonable efforts, estimate or predict with certainty the components of net income. These components, net of tax, may include, but are not limited to, impairments of assets and other charges, divestiture costs, acquisition costs, or changes in accounting principles. All of these components could significantly impact such financial measures. At this time, DT Midstream is not able to estimate the aggregate impact, if any, of these items on future period reported earnings. Accordingly, DT Midstream is not able to provide a corresponding GAAP equivalent for Adjusted EBITDA.

    Forward-looking Statements

    This release contains statements which, to the extent they are not statements of historical or present fact, constitute “forward-looking statements” under the securities laws. These forward-looking statements are intended to provide management’s current expectations or plans for our future operating and financial performance, business prospects, outcomes of regulatory proceedings, market conditions, and other matters, based on what we believe to be reasonable assumptions and on information currently available to us.

The absence of such words, expressions or statements, however, does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. In particular, express or implied statements relating to future earnings, cash flow, results of operations, uses of cash, tax rates and other measures of financial performance, future actions, conditions or events, potential future plans, strategies or transactions of DT Midstream, and other statements that are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements.

    The above list of factors is not exhaustive. New factors emerge from time to time. We cannot predict what factors may arise or how such factors may cause actual results to vary materially from those stated in forward-looking statements, see the discussion under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on Form 10-K and any other reports filed with the SEC. Given the uncertainties and risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, you should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

    Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made. We are under no obligation to, and expressly disclaim any obligation to, update or alter our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, subsequent events or otherwise.

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    BANGKOK, July 31 (Xinhua) — The Thai government on Wednesday approved adjustments to the country’s key incentive programs to encourage manufacturers to boost exports of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), a move aimed at bolstering the country’s position as a regional EV manufacturing hub.

    Manufacturers participating in the EV subsidy program, which started in 2022, are required to produce electric vehicles domestically as compensation for receiving subsidies and exemption from import duties.

    Under the revised terms, one BEV produced for export will count as 1.5 vehicles under the local production quota, making it easier to meet production commitments.

    “The changes will allow for greater flexibility and help Thailand, already a leader in the region’s auto industry, become a key base for electric vehicle production,” said Narit Terdsteerasukdee, secretary general of the Thai Board of Investment (BOI).

    The adjustments to the program come as total investment in the country’s EV supply chain as of June reached 137.7 billion baht (about US$4.21 billion), the BOI said in a statement.

    The move is expected to boost Thailand’s EV exports to around 12,500 units in 2025 and 52,000 units in 2026.

    In the first half of 2025, the number of new BEV registrations increased by 52.4 percent year-on-year to reach 57,289 units, accounting for 15 percent of all new vehicle registrations in Thailand.

    To date, the Thai government has provided subsidies totaling more than 12 billion baht (approximately $367.82 million) for 175,064 BEVs and 34,559 electric motorcycles under the EV 3.0 and 3.5 subsidy programs. –0–

  • MIL-OSI: Banco Santander-Chile Announces Second Quarter 2025 Earnings

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SANTIAGO, Chile, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Banco Santander Chile (NYSE: BSAC; SSE: Bsantander) announced today its results1 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, and second quarter 2025 (2Q25).

    Solid financial performance with a ROAE2of 24.5% in 2Q253, the fifth consecutive quarter with a ROAE above 20%.

    As of June 30, 2025, the Bank’s net income attributable to shareholders totaled $550 billion ($2.92 per share and $1.25 per ADR), representing an increase of 62.8% YoY4 and with an ROAE of 25.1% in 6M255 compared to an ROAE of 15.8% in 6M246. The increase in results is explained by an increase in the Bank’s main revenue lines. Operating income increased 22.0% YoY and 12.6% compared to the second quarter of 2024 (2Q24), driven by a better net interest and readjustment income and higher fees and results from financial transactions.

    Compared to the previous quarter (1Q25), net income attributable to shareholders decreased slightly by 0.5%. The UF variation in 2Q25 was lower than in 1Q25, which reduced QoQ7 adjustment gains. The quarter also saw lower results from financial transactions and higher loan loss provisions. This was offset by higher interest income and cost controls. This marked the ROAE of 24.5% in 2Q25, the fifth consecutive quarter with ROAEs above 20%.

    Strong recovery of NIM8, reaching 4.1% in 2Q25

    Accumulated net interest and readjustment income (NII) as of June 30, 2025, increased 26.0% compared to the same period in 2024. This increase in NII was due to higher net interest income due to the effect of a lower monetary policy rate on our funding cost, which fell from 5.0% to 3.9% in 6M25. The increase is also explained by higher readjustment income, resulting from a greater variation in the UF during the period.

    Compared to 1Q25, net interest and readjustment income increased 1.2% QoQ due to a 2.0% increase in average interest earning assets, offset by lower readjustment income due to lower inflation in 2Q25 compared to the previous quarter.

    Given the above, the NIM increased from 3.1% in 2Q24 to 4.1% in 1Q25 and remained at 4.1% in 2Q25.

    The customer base continues to expand, with total customers increasing by 11.5% YoY and digital customers increasing by 7.9% YoY.

    Our strategy of strengthening digital products has led to continued growth in our customer base, reaching approximately 4.5 million customers, of which nearly 2.3 million are digital customers (87% of our active customers).

    The Bank’s market share in checking accounts remains strong at 22.4% through April 2025, driven by increased customer demand for US dollar checking accounts, as customers can open these types of accounts digitally through our platform in a few easy steps. This also demonstrates the success of Getnet’s strategy to encourage cross-selling of other products, such as checking accounts, to SMEs.

    Net commissions increased by 13.2% in 6M25, reaching recurrence levels9of 61.9%.

    Net commissions increased 13.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, driven by increased customer numbers and greater product usage. As a result, the recurrence ratio (total net commissions divided by core support expenses) increased from 58.3% as of June 2024 to 61.9% as of June 2025, demonstrating that more than half of the Bank’s expenses are funded by commissions generated by our customers.

    Best in Class efficiency10of 35.3% in 6M25.

    The Bank’s efficiency ratio reached 35.3% as of June 30, 2025, better than the 42.1% recorded in the same period last year. Total operating expenses (which include other expenses) increased 2.3% in 6M25 compared to 6M24, driven by administrative expenses primarily related to higher technology expenses in the first quarter, as well as other expenses related to the restructuring of our branch network and the transformation to Work/Café.

    In the first quarter of 2025, the Bank celebrated the major milestone of the Gravity project, the migration from the Mainframe to the Cloud. In January, we transitioned processing to our new Cloud, which resulted in higher transitional technology expenses related to the change and write-downs and impairments related to legacy systems.

    Solid CET1 ratio11of 10.9%.

    Our CET1 ratio rose to 10.9% by the end of June 2025, and the overall Basel III ratio12 will reach 17.0%. The Bank’s capital includes a provision for 60% of 2025 earnings to date.

    Banco Santander Chile is one of the companies with the highest risk ratings in Latin America, with an A2 rating from Moody’s, A- from Standard & Poor’s, A+ from the Japan Credit Rating Agency, AA- from HR Ratings, and A from KBRA. All of our ratings have a stable outlook as of the date of this report.

    As of June 30, 2025, the bank had total assets of Ch$66,188,442 million (US$69,371 million), total gross loans (including those owed by banks) at amortized cost of Ch$40,942,542 million (US$42,911 million), total deposits of Ch$29,614,613 million (US$31,039 million), and shareholders’ equity was $4,514,322 million (US$4,731 million).

    Distributions are not guaranteed

    Standardized Performance and Fund details can be obtained by clicking the ETF Ticker in the table above or by visiting us at www.graniteshares.com.

    1The Distribution Rate shown is as of based of the NAV per share as of July 30, 2025, adjusted for corporate actions. The Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recent distribution remained the same going forward. The rate represents a single distribution from the fund and does not represent total return to the fund. The distribution rate is calculated by annualizing the most recent distribution and dividing it by the most recent NAV adjusted for corporate actions.

    2The 30-Day SEC Yield represents the net investment income (excluding option income) earned by the ETF over the 30-day period ended June 30, 2025. It is expressed as an annualized percentage rate based on the ETFs share price at the end of that period. This metric does not reflect the total income generated by the fund, as it excludes option premium income central to the YieldBOOST strategy.

    3Each GraniteShares YieldBOOST ETF seeks to generate income by selling put options on the underlying asset. While this strategy can generate attractive premiums, it generally caps the upside potential of the ETF. If the reference asset appreciates significantly, the ETF will not fully participate in those gains. However, if the reference asset declines in value, the ETF may experience losses that are not offset by the income received. Investors may be exposed to downside risk while forgoing upside participation.

    4ROC or Return of Capital indicates how much the distribution reflects an investor’s initial investment. The figures shown for each Fund in the table above are estimates based on the latest 19a1 forms and may later be determined to be taxable net investment income, short-term gains, long-term gains (to the extent permitted by law), or return of capital. Actual amounts and sources for tax reporting will depend upon the Fund’s investment activities during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Your broker will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year to tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

    5Ex-Date: The first day an ETF trades without the right to receive the upcoming distribution 

    6Record Date: The cut-off date set by the company to determine which ETF holders are eligible to receive the distribution

    7Payment Date: Date on which the distribution is paid to eligible ETF holders.

    Fund shareholders are not entitled to any distribution paid by the Underlying ETFs.

    GraniteShares Advisors LLC has contractually agreed to waive its fees and/or pay for operating expenses of the Fund to ensure that total annual fund operating expenses (exclusive of any (i) interest, (ii) brokerage fees and commission, (iii) acquired fund fees and expenses, (iv) fees and expenses associated with instruments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example options and swap fees and expenses), (v) interest and dividend expense on short sales, (vi) taxes, (vii) other fees related to underlying investments (such as option fees and expenses or swap fees and expenses), (viii) expenses incurred in connection with any merger or reorganization or (ix) extraordinary expenses such as litigation) will not exceed 1.15%. This agreement is effective until December 31, 2025, and it may be terminated before that date only by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. GraniteShares Advisors LLC may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses from the Fund for three years from the date such fees and expenses were waived or paid, if such reimbursement will not cause the Fund’s total expense ratio to exceed the expense limitation in place at the time of the waiver and/or expense payment and the expense limitation in place at the time of the recoupment.

    Fund is newly launched and has risks associated with its limited operating history.

    The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (844) 476 8747.

    Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For a Prospectus or summary prospectus with this and other information about the Funds, please call (844) 476 8747 or. Read the prospectus or summary prospectus carefully before investing.

    The Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield is not indicative of future distributions, if any, on the ETFs. In particular, future distributions on any ETF may differ significantly from its Distribution Rate or 30-Day SEC Yield. You are not guaranteed a distribution under the ETFs. Distributions for the ETFs (if any) are variable and may vary significantly from month to month and may be zero. Accordingly, the Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield will change over time, and such change may be significant. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. These distribution rates caused by unusually favorable market conditions may not be sustainable. Such conditions may not continue to exist and there should be no expectation that this performance may be repeated in the future. Additional fund risks can be found below.

    An investment in the Fund involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. The Fund is non-diversified and includes risks associated with the Fund concentrating its investments in a particular industry, sector, or geographic region which can result in increased volatility. The use of derivatives such as option contracts and swaps are subject to market risks that may cause their price to include Risk of the Underlying ETF, Derivatives Risk, Affiliated Fund Risk, Put Writing Strategy Risk, Option Market Liquidity Risk, Counterparty Risk, Distribution Risk, & NAV Erosion Risk Due to Distribution. These and other risks can be found in the prospectus.

    There is no guarantee that the Fund’s investment strategy will be properly implemented, and an investor may lose some or all of its investment.

    An Investment in the Fund is not an investment in the Underlying ETFs

    – The Fund’s strategy will cap its potential gain if the Underlying ETFs share increases in value.
    – The Fund’s strategy is subject to all potential losses if the Underlying ETFs share decline, which may not be offset by the income received by the Fund,
    – The Fund does not invest directly in the Underlying ETFs,
    – Fund shareholders are not entitled to any distribution paid by Underlying ETFs.

    Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the ETF. There can be no guarantee that an active trading market for ETF shares will develop or be maintained, or that their listing will continue or remain unchanged. Buying or selling ETF shares on an exchange may require the payment of brokerage commissions and frequent trading may incur brokerage costs that detract significantly from the returns.

    This information is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the shares of any Funds to any person in any jurisdiction in which an offer, solicitation, purchase or sale would be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Please consult your tax advisor about the tax consequences of an investment in Fund shares, including the possible application of foreign, state, and local tax laws. You could lose money by investing in the ETFs. There can be no assurance that the investment objective of the Funds will be achieved. None of the Funds should be relied upon as a complete investment program.

  • MIL-OSI: authID Launches Identity Exchange (IDX) to Eliminate Enterprise Identity Blind Spots, in Strategic Partnership with NEC Networks & System Integration Corporation (NESIC)

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New platform delivers passwordless, privacy-first, and interoperable digital credentials to modernize identity security and support Zero Trust architecture

    DENVER, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — authID®  (Nasdaq: AUID) (“authID”), a leading provider of biometric identity verification and authentication solutions, today announced the launch of authID Identity Exchange (IDX), a next-generation platform purpose-built to close long-standing gaps in enterprise identity and access management. IDX modernizes identity management with biometric-bound, passwordless, interoperable credentials that stop phishing attacks, ensuring only verified users can access sensitive systems and data.

    Developed in strategic partnership with NESIC, a subsidiary of NEC Corporation, and a leader in integrated IT and network solutions for digital transformation (DX), IDX allows authorized personnel to create or claim a central credential that can be leveraged across multiple subsidiaries of a large enterprise, simplifying and securing the management of workforce identities.

    With IDX, organizations can eliminate ghost accounts and shared credentials for every identity in the enterprise, automate onboarding through secure document verification, and extend protections to full-time employees and contractors alike. The platform also helps reduce identity-related IT support costs while ensuring compliance with global data security and privacy regulations.

    “At authID, our mission is to solve pain points in today’s identity infrastructure, particularly those that continually expose large, complex organizations to breaches, fraud, operational friction, and unnecessary compliance risks,” said Rhon Daguro, CEO of authID. “IDX helps redefine how identity verification should work in a Zero Trust world: unphishable, privacy-first, frictionless, and built to secure every identity across the extended enterprise.”

    IDX is the first enterprise platform built on the Accountable Digital Identity Association (ADI Association) specification (now part of the Secure Identity Alliance or SIA), ensuring it is aligned with global interoperability and data sovereignty standards. Key innovations include:

    • Privacy-by-Design: Leveraging privacy-preserving biometrics (via authID’s PrivacyKeyTM), IDX authenticates users without storing sensitive biometric data, eliminating honeypots and supporting compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, BIPA and other regulatory frameworks.
    • Frictionless Authentication: IDX is the first platform to combine authID’s PrivacyKey biometric protocol with FIDO2 in a single implementation, enabling strong, unphishable, and passwordless logins for every enterprise identity.
    • AI-Driven Identity Lifecycle Management: From onboarding to revocation, IDX uses intelligent automation to reduce IT overhead and ensure policy compliance.
    • Plug-and-Play Integration: IDX works seamlessly with leading Identity and Access Management (IAM) platforms including Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, and Ping Identity, while also interoperating with emerging global identity exchanges.

    “NESIC and authID share a vision for a more secure and connected digital future where every identity is verified, protected, and interoperable,” said Osamu Kikuchi, EVP, CDO, CIO, and member of the board at NEC Networks & System Integration Corporation. “Having launched the Japanese Identity Exchange via our Symphonict Trust framework, we’re excited to partner with authID to expand this vision globally.”

    The initial target use cases available at deployment include:

    • Enterprise workforce authentication across devices and locations.
    • Contractor and vendor onboarding without shared accounts.
    • Supply chain security and access governance.
    • Government and public-sector federated credentials.
    • Call centers and support with strong agent authentication.

    “IDX represents a foundational shift in how enterprises manage identity: decentralized, privacy-first, and built for a connected world,” said Ramesh Kesanupalli, co-founder of the ADI Association and FIDO Alliance founder. “This is the future of identity in motion.”

    authID (Nasdaq: AUID) ensures enterprises “Know Who’s Behind the Device™” for every customer or employee login and transaction through its easy-to-integrate, patented biometric identity platform. authID powers biometric identity proofing in 700ms, biometric authentication in 25ms, and account recovery with a fast, accurate, user-friendly experience.

  • MIL-OSI: ReconAfrica Provides a Corporate Update and Announces That the Kavango West 1X Well Has Started Drilling

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    CALGARY, Alberta, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Reconnaissance Energy Africa Ltd. (the “Company” or “ReconAfrica”) (TSXV: RECO) (OTCQX: RECAF) (Frankfurt: 0XD) (NSX: REC) announces that the Kavango West 1X exploration well is currently drilling and provides a corporate update on ongoing operations.

    Kavango West 1X (Prospect I) – Well Spud on July 31st

    The Kavango West 1X exploration prospect spud on July 31st. The well is planned to reach total depth (TD) of approximately 3,800 metres (12,500 feet) by the end of November 2025 and is expected to penetrate over 1,500 metres of Otavi carbonate reservoir section, which is the primary target of the Damara Fold Belt play.   The prospect is a large structural fold identified on modern 2D seismic data, which extends over 22 kilometers long by 3 kilometers wide. The Company has identified over 19 prospects and four leads mapped in the Damara Fold Belt trend, with an additional 5.0 million acres captured in a recently executed Memorandum of Understanding in offsetting Angola. More information about the Damara Fold Belt Play, and the Kavango West 1X well, can be found in the Corporate Presentation available on the Company’s website.

    Brian Reinsborough, President and CEO stated: “We are pleased to announce that we have started drilling the Kavango West 1X well. This is an exciting time for everyone at the Company, our partners and stakeholders in Namibia and, of course, shareholders alike. Originally, the Kavango West 1X location was not scheduled to be the next well, but the location was reprioritized after the results of our last well, Naingopo. While this reprioritizing resulted in a slightly longer lead time to spud this location, the Company prioritizes rigorous technical appraisal with respect to location selection to ensure we have the best possible chance for commercial success. We think that the Kavango West 1X prospect represents our best opportunity in the Damara Fold Belt to unlock the potential of this play and we look forward to reporting results expected before year-end 2025.”

    Chris Sembritzky, SVP Exploration commented: “By utilizing our learnings from the Naingopo well, Kavango West 1X represents the best opportunity we have identified on seismic in the Damara Fold Belt play due to its size, hydrocarbon migration pathway and well defined four-way closure.  With our new subsurface learnings, highly experienced drilling crew and optimized, built for purpose drill bits, we believe that we have captured the best possible chance for drilling an efficient, safe and commercially successful well.”

    Corporate Update

    Due to our ongoing drilling activities, the previously announced 3D seismic program that had been scheduled for the second half of 2025 has been moved to the 2026 operating program.The Company is continually reviewing potential investment opportunities that may include acquisition of further acreage for exploration, development and producing properties and joint venture transactions that target acceleration of production and free cash flow, particularly due to the Company’s concentrated asset risk profile.

    Stock Option Grants

    As part of the annual compensation review, the Company has granted incentive stock options (the “Options”) to certain directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company to acquire an aggregate of 6,960,000 common shares at an exercise price of $0.60 per share. The Options are exercisable for a five-year term expiring July 31, 2030, and will be subject to certain vesting provisions as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with the Company’s Stock Option Plan. The Options granted to insiders are subject to restrictions on resale until November 30, 2025, in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange.

  • MIL-OSI: Firm Capital Property Trust Announces Normal Course Issuer Bid

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    TORONTO, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Firm Capital Property Trust (“FCPT” or the “Trust”), (TSX: FCD.UN) announced today that the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) has accepted a notice filed by FCPT of its intention to make a normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”) with respect to its outstanding trust units.

    The notice provides that FCPT may, during the 12 month period commencing August 5, 2025 and ending no later than August 4, 2026, purchase through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian Trading Systems up to 3,266,775 trust units in total, being 10% of the “public float” of trust units as of July 28, 2025. The price which FCPT will pay for any trust units will be the market price at the time of acquisition. During the period of this NCIB, FCPT may make purchases under the NCIB by means of open market transactions. The actual number of trust units which may be purchased pursuant to the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by senior management of FCPT. The average daily trading volume on the TSX from January 1, 2025 to June 30, 2025 was 24,867 trust units. Daily purchases under the NCIB will be limited to 6,216 trust units, other than block purchases. All trust units purchased by FCPT under the NCIB will be cancelled.

    As of July 28, 2025, there were 36,925,682 trust units of FCPT outstanding, and the public float was 32,667,751 trust units.

    FCPT believes that its trust units may from time to time trade in a price range that does not adequately reflect the value of such units in relation to the business of FCPT and its future business prospects. As a result, depending upon future price movements and other factors, FCPT believes that the outstanding trust units may represent an attractive investment to FCPT. Furthermore, purchases of trust units are expected to benefit all persons who continue to hold trust units by increasing their equity interest in FCPT.

    Pursuant to a previous notice of intention to conduct a NCIB, FCPT sought and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 3,281,995 trust units through open market purchases on the TSX and alternative Canadian trading systems for the period of July 18, 2024 to July 17, 2025. FCPT did not purchase for cancellation any of its trust units under this prior normal course issuer bid.
