    • Faster turnaround times from production to delivery
    • Reduced exposure to global shipping volatility
    • Enhanced sustainability with lower carbon footprints
    • Transparent vendor collaboration via the SuperSuite digital dashboard

    The “Made in USA” module of SuperSuite is designed to provide end-to-end support to manufacturing initiatives across the country — offering legal and regulatory guidance, facility planning, local workforce development, and immediate access to iPower’s nationwide distribution and e-commerce infrastructure.

    United Package is only the beginning. iPower plans to expand its “Made in USA” initiative by forming additional strategic ventures and supporting a new wave of domestic manufacturers across various categories.

  • MIL-OSI: Cyabra Report Reveals Disinformation Campaign Against Target’s DEI Initiatives, Featured in USA Today

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    New York, NY, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —  Cyabra Strategy Ltd. (“Cyabra”), a leading AI platform for real-time disinformation detection, has released a groundbreaking new report exposing a sophisticated campaign to artificially inflate online backlash against Target’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts.

    The investigation analyzed thousands of social media conversations between January to June, 2025, and uncovered how bot networks manufactured outrage to spark a boycott movement. The report reveals how misinformation targeting Target’s DEI programs was deliberately amplified by bad actors to manipulate public perception and damage brand reputation.

    Cyabra’s report was prominently featured in USA Today’s June 4 article, “What fueled the Target DEI boycott? The answer may surprise you.” The coverage highlights Cyabra’s key findings, including that 27% of the social media accounts analyzed were fake and played a significant role in amplifying the viral backlash. The report also revealed a 764% surge in inauthentic sentiment following Target’s announcement that it was scaling back its diversity initiatives.

    While not solely responsible, the presence of fake accounts amplifying negativity from both sides – whether promoting or opposing the boycott – helped shape a toxic narrative that ultimately eroded overall brand perception, coinciding with a $12 billion drop in Target’s market value by late February 2025. The full report can be viewed here.

    The report underscores Cyabra’s ability to detect weaponized disinformation targeting brands. In today’s volatile digital environment, brands face growing risks from coordinated campaigns designed to manufacture outrage, damage trust and brand reputation, and trigger real-world consequences like boycotts and stock volatility. These attacks often appear organic but are driven by fake profiles and bot networks. Cyabra’s real-time intelligence platform helps executives distinguish authentic sentiment from manipulation, enabling faster, smarter decisions that protect brand reputation, guide crisis response, and maintain stakeholder confidence.

    “The Cyabra report uncovered a strategic operation designed to look like a viral movement,” said Dan Brahmy, CEO & Co-founder of Cyabra. “Disinformation, namely fake accounts and false narratives, are being weaponized against brands. We are proud that our disinformation detection tools are able to shine a light on how bad actors manipulate online sentiment to attack corporate values.”

    Cyabra has entered into a business combination agreement with Trailblazer Merger Corporation I (NASDAQ: $TBMC), a blank-check special-purpose acquisition company.

    About Cyabra
    Cyabra is a real-time AI-powered platform that uncovers and analyzes online disinformation and misinformation by uncovering fake profiles, harmful narratives, and GenAI content across social media and digital news channels.

  • MIL-OSI: Global Value Investment Corporation Named to PSN Top Guns List of Best Performing Strategies for Q1 2025

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    MILWAUKEE, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Global Value Investment Corporation (GVIC) announced today it has been named to the celebrated PSN Top Guns List of best performing separate accounts, managed accounts, and managed ETF strategies for Q1 2025. The highly anticipated list, published by Zephyr, remains one of the most important references for investors and asset managers.

    “Q1 2025 presented a fascinating market narrative marked by significant rotation and global shifts. Success demanded adaptability, deep market understanding, and strategic positioning,” says PSN Product Manager Nick Williams. “PSN Top Guns managers demonstrated exceptional skill in navigating these complex dynamics, where value sectors outperformed growth, international markets showed strength, and policy shifts created both challenges and opportunities. Their expertise in reading and responding to these evolving market conditions continues to showcase the enduring value of active management in separately managed accounts.”

    GVIC’s recognition across multiple categories reflects the firm’s disciplined approach to value investing and its ability to identify opportunities where price dislocations create long-term value potential. The awards demonstrate the effectiveness of GVIC’s investment philosophy over a multi-year period that rewarded patience, disciplined fundamental analysis, and contrarian positioning.

    “These awards validate our commitment to principled, value-oriented investing and our belief that rigorous fundamental analysis coupled with concentrated portfolios creates an information advantage that enables superior long-term performance,” said JP Geygan, CEO and President of Global Value Investment Corporation. “In a quarter marked by significant market volatility, our strategies demonstrated resilience through disciplined security selection and our long-term investment horizon. We remain focused on building generational wealth for our clients through thoughtful capital allocation and our unwavering commitment to investing excellence.”

    Through PSN’s proprietary performance screens, the PSN Top Guns awards products in six proprietary categories across more than 75 universes based on continued performance over time.

    GVIC’s Concentrated Equity Value Strategy (CEVS) and Total Return Value Strategy (TRVS) were named to PSN Top Guns 3-Year Category awards, meaning each strategy had one of the top ten returns for the three-year period. Below are the honors that were awarded for each strategy.

    Concentrated Equity Value Strategy (CEVS):

    • 3-Year Micro Cap Universe
    • 3-Year US Value Universe

    Total Return Value Strategy (TRVS):

    • 3-Year US Balanced Universe

    The Concentrated Equity Value Strategy focuses on capital concentration in a limited number of high-conviction equity investments, allowing GVIC’s investment team to devote substantial time to understanding the determinants of long-term value realization. This approach leverages the firm’s exhaustive knowledge of portfolio investments to create significant information advantages.

    The Total Return Value Strategy applies value-oriented investment principles across a diversified portfolio of individual equity and corporate debt securities, and is designed to deliver long-term capital appreciation while managing risk through thoughtful asset allocation and security selection.

    Both strategies reflect GVIC’s belief that short-term market inefficiencies create opportunities for disciplined investors willing to arbitrage dislocations between price and intrinsic value, and that value-creating initiatives often bear fruit over periods measured in years, not quarters.

    GVIC did not provide any compensation to PSN, Zephyr, or Informa Intelligence, Inc. for this ranking. The complete list of PSN Top Guns and an overview of the methodology can be located at https://psn.fi.informais.com/.

    Recent Company Highlights

    About Heidelberg Pharma

    Heidelberg Pharma is a biopharmaceutical company working on a new treatment approach in oncology and developing novel drugs based on its ADC technologies for the targeted and highly effective treatment of cancer. ADCs are antibody-drug conjugates that combine the specificity of antibodies with the efficacy of toxins to fight cancer. Selected antibodies are loaded with cytotoxic compounds, the so-called payloads, that are transported into diseased cells. Inside the cells, the toxins then unleash their effect and kill the diseased cells.

    Heidelberg Pharma uses several compounds and has built up an ADC toolbox that overcomes tumor resistance via numerous pathways and addresses different types of cancer using various antibodies. The goal is to develop targeted and highly effective ADCs for the treatment of a variety of malignant hematologic and solid tumors.

    Heidelberg Pharma is the first company to use the compound Amanitin from the green death cap mushroom in cancer therapy. The biological mechanism of action of the toxin represents a new therapeutic modality and is used as a compound in the Amanitin-based ADC technology, the so-called ATAC technology.

    The company is based in Ladenburg, Germany, and is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange: ISIN DE000A11QVV0 / WKN A11QVV / Symbol HPHA. More information is available at www.heidelberg-pharma.com.

  • MIL-OSI: Sagteс Ignites AI Commercialization Surge with US$5 Million in Contracts, Targeting US$50 Million Pipeline in 12 Months

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sagtec Global Limited (NASDAQ: SAGT) (“Sagtec” or the “Company”), the next-generation provider of customizable AI and automation platforms, today announced the signing of two major commercial contracts totaling US$5 million less than one week after the official launch of its AI-powered robotics platform.

    These early wins underscore an accelerated go-to-market approach and build momentum toward a commercial pipeline exceeding US$50 million over the next 12 months. This positions Sagtec as a rising leader in AI automation across the Asia-Pacific region.

    Key Highlights:

    • US$2 Million Robotics Deployment

    Sagtec will deploy over 100 autonomous robotic units to a leading multi-brand restaurant group in Malaysia. This marks the initial phase of a nationwide rollout, expected to generate more than US$20 million in cumulative revenue over the next year under a Robotics-as-a-Service (RaaS) model.

    • US$3 Million CRM Platform Contract

    The Company also secured a significant Customer Relationship Management (CRM) project with a prominent F&B operator. The solution features modules for loyalty management, points and credits tracking, inventory control, and workforce administration. This contract is projected to add over US$30 million in Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) revenue pipeline through regional expansion.

    Both contracts are powered by Sagtec’s modular, full-stack AI platform, which integrates voice-activated robotics, POS systems, and real-time analytics. These milestone deployments validate Sagtec’s dual-engine monetization strategy across RaaS and SaaS, generating scalable, high-margin recurring revenue.

    Strategic Outlook:

    With demand for automation accelerating in high-volume service sectors, Sagtec is actively expanding commercial engagements across Southeast Asia, Hong Kong, and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) markets. The global service robotics market is projected to surpass US$90 billion, and Sagtec is strategically positioned to lead as a platform-native AI solution provider at scale.

    Momentum Metrics – Past 7 Days

            •        2 contracts signed worth US$5M
            •        100+ robotic units deployed
            •        Targeting US$50M revenue pipeline
            •        Enterprise client base expansion across 3 regions
            •        New verticals in hospitality, retail, and foodtech unlocked

    “This is more than early traction. It marks the beginning of an exponential monetization curve. Our combined RaaS and SaaS model is engineered for rapid scaling with enterprise adoption. By embedding AI directly into day-to-day operations, we are unlocking repeatable revenue at the infrastructure level, from robotics to real-time CRM analytics,” said Kevin Ng, Chairman, Executive Director, and Chief Executive Officer of Sagtec.

  • MIL-OSI: CERo Therapeutics, Inc. Announces Option Exercise for Additional Series D Financing

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CERo Therapeutics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: CERO) (“CERo”), an innovative immunotherapy company seeking to advance the next generation of engineered T cell therapeutics that employ phagocytic mechanisms, announces that the Company has issued additional shares of its Series D Preferred Stock to certain institutional investors (the “Investors”) pursuant to the securities purchase agreement previously entered into by and between the Company and such Investors on April 22, 2025 with respect to the issuance of shares of Series D Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of up to $8 million, including $5 million previously issued in April 2025 and up to $3 million issuable at the option of the Investors. The shares of Series D Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock.

    “We welcome this vote of confidence and the continued support of our investors as we continue to show progress along our clinical timeline. The completion of our first-in-human dosing represents a significant clinical development milestone in AML for CER-1236, a novel autologous CAR-T therapeutic candidate targeting TIM 4L, and we will continue to communicate results as the data matures,” said Chris Ehrlich, Chief Executive Officer.

    The gross proceeds to CERo from today’s closing are expected to be approximately $750,000, with up to $2.25 million of cash that may be funded at one or more additional closings, at the election of the Investors.  CERo intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to take advantage of the two recent FDA IND allowances in liquid and solid tumors and complete the previously announced site activation at MDACC, as well as bring other sites online quickly. 

    This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. 

    About CERo Therapeutics Holdings, Inc.

    CERo is an innovative immunotherapy company advancing the development of next generation engineered T cell therapeutics for the treatment of cancer. Its proprietary approach to T cell engineering, which enables it to integrate certain desirable characteristics of both innate and adaptive immunity into a single therapeutic construct, is designed to engage the body’s full immune repertoire to achieve optimized cancer therapy. This novel cellular immunotherapy platform is expected to redirect patient-derived T cells to eliminate tumors by building in engulfment pathways that employ phagocytic mechanisms to destroy cancer cells, creating what CERo refers to as Chimeric Engulfment Receptor T cells (“CER-T”). CERo believes the differentiated activity of CER-T cells will afford them greater therapeutic application than currently approved chimeric antigen receptor (“CAR-T”) cell therapy, as the use of CER-T may potentially span both hematological malignancies and solid tumors. In April 2025, CERo  initiated clinical trials for its lead product candidate, CER-1236,for hematological malignancies.

  • MIL-OSI: 21Shares welcomes FCA’s decision to open retail access to Crypto ETNs

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    The decision paves the way for broader digital asset adoption in the UK

    London, 6 June 2025 – 21Shares, one of the world’s leading issuers of cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) and the first to list crypto ETNs on the London Stock Exchange (LSE), welcomes the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) announcement today proposing to lift the ban on offering crypto exchange-traded notes (cETNs) to UK retail investors.

    The proposal aims to support innovation and competitiveness in the UK’s digital asset sector while ensuring robust investor protection. Crypto ETNs are already widely accessible to retail investors in other major jurisdictions across Europe, and this change would bring the UK into alignment with global best practice.

    “This is a landmark moment for the UK digital asset market,” said Russell Barlow, CEO of 21Shares. “We fully support the FCA’s move to provide regulated access to crypto ETNs for retail investors. Retail investors in the UK deserve cost effective, efficient and regulated access to the digital asset economy. This consultation represents real progress towards that goal and affirms the FCA’s commitment to balancing innovation with investor protection as well as the UK’s position as a leading global financial centre.”

    In 2024, 21Shares listed the first physically-backed crypto ETNs on the London Stock Exchange, providing professional investors in the UK with regulated access to digital assets. Today’s announcement, which marks a reversal of the FCA’s initial 2021 ban on retail access to crypto derivatives and ETNs, paves the way for retail investors to participate via the same trusted, transparent instruments.

    21Shares looks forward to engaging constructively with the FCA and market stakeholders throughout the consultation process. The firm stands ready to support the expansion of regulated crypto access to retail investors with its comprehensive suite of physically backed ETPs, which includes exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

  • MIL-OSI: Pocket-Sized Gold Mine: Bitcoin Solaris Nova App Lets Anyone Build Crypto Wealth From Their Phone

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    TALLINN, Estonia, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In the early days of crypto, mining was reserved for the technically elite. Specialized rigs, high electricity bills, and complex setups created a wall between everyday people and the wealth being generated behind blockchain technology. Fast forward to 2025, and Bitcoin Solaris is tearing down that wall, placing the power of crypto mining directly into the palm of your hand.

    This isn’t just another blockchain project promising change. Bitcoin Solaris (BTC-S) is delivering it through innovation, accessibility, and mobile-first scalability. BTC-S is powered by a dual-layered, dual-consensus system—combining Proof-of-Work (PoW) with Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) to ensure both security and efficiency. This architecture allows BTC-S to achieve lightning-fast 10,000+ transactions per second while keeping its network highly decentralized and secure.

    But the real revolution is in how it’s mined—and who can mine it.

    Your Phone Is Now a Mining Rig

    At the core of this disruption is the upcoming Solaris Nova App—an intuitive, cross-platform mining tool that lets anyone start earning from their smartphone, desktop, or even a browser. Mining has never been this simple:

    • Cross-device compatibility: Supports ASICs, GPUs, laptops, and smartphones.
    • One-click setup: No coding, no wallet configuration—just tap and go.
    • Real-time wallet rewards: Earnings are visible immediately.
    • Adaptive algorithms: Optimizes based on device specs for peak performance.
    • Energy efficiency: Consumes 99.95% less energy than traditional mining.

    Even more impressive? Bitcoin Solaris has baked in end-to-end encryption, biometric logins, remote wipe capabilities, and gamified features like achievements and leaderboards, making it secure, fun, and inclusive.

    Build Wealth, Stake, and Grow with Liquid Staking

    Bitcoin Solaris doesn’t stop at mining. It also enables liquid staking, allowing users to earn passive income without locking up their assets. When users stake BTC-S, it’s instantly converted into sBTC-S at a 1:1 ratio.

    That means you can:

    • Trade your staked tokens freely.
    • Use them in DeFi protocols like lending or liquidity pools.
    • Participate in governance without losing yield.

    Best of all, liquid staking is fully integrated into the Solaris Nova App. Validator selection is automated, the UI is beginner-friendly, and the security framework ensures peace of mind.

    BTC-S’s model improves both decentralization and capital efficiency, letting your assets work for you from day one.

    Mining Has Evolved—BTC-S Puts It in Your Pocket

    Why Everyone’s Talking About It

    With mobile mining and staking at the center of its offering, it’s no surprise that over 11,000 users have joined the presale so far. And with just around 8 weeks left in the sale, interest is only accelerating.

    • Current Price: $6
    • Next Phase: $7
    • Launch Price: $20
    • Bonus: 10%

    It’s not just retail investors taking notice. Crypto Royal recently published a detailed review of Bitcoin Solaris, praising the project’s smart tech and accessibility. As more influencers weigh in, the momentum continues to build.

    Security Backed by Real Audits and Transparency

    What sets Bitcoin Solaris apart from many crypto projects is its commitment to trust and transparency. It’s passed not one, but two major audits—by Cyberscope and Freshcoins. Plus, the team has completed full KYC verification, further proving it’s here to stay.

    And as excitement continues to spread, you can track updates, join discussions, and be part of the movement on the project’s Telegram and X channels.

    Conclusion: Crypto Wealth Isn’t Reserved for the Elite Anymore

    Bitcoin Solaris is more than a token—it’s a technology shift. It brings together power, speed, and inclusivity in a way the industry has never seen before. Through the exciting release of the Solaris Nova App, anyone—from students to working professionals—can mine, stake, and grow their wealth without needing expensive rigs or deep technical knowledge.

    If you ever felt like you were late to Bitcoin, this is your second chance—but built for the mobile era. And this time, all it takes is the phone in your pocket.

  • MIL-OSI: MEXC Officially Unveils Launchpad Platform: Acquire BTC at up to 90% Discount

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    VICTORIA, Seychelles, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MEXC, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has officially unveiled its new Launchpad, an innovative token issuance platform that provides users with guaranteed access to high-quality projects at discounted prices. MEXC’s first-ever Launchpad event and debut offering lets users subscribe to select tokens and unlock discounts on BTC.

    According to data from Triple-A, the global crypto user base has surpassed 560 million, and market momentum continues to grow. However, many users remain sidelined from having early investment access to promising projects, but also access to established assets at significant discounts due to high entry barriers and complex risk factors.

    MEXC Launchpad addresses these pain points with a redesigned, fully upgraded investment platform that breaks through the traditional IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) model.

    By offering discounted access to premium project tokens, Launchpad aims to provide users with inclusive access to high-quality crypto investments, helping retail users capture emerging and established market opportunities.

    Because of these highlights, MEXC Launchpad is known for being the
    “Your Easiest Way to Top Tokens — Early or at a Discount.” Key features of the Launchpad include:

    Discounted Access to Token Subscriptions
    The platform adopts a differentiated pricing strategy, offering users the opportunity to subscribe at prices below market expectations. This significantly lowers the cost barrier for retail investors to participate in high-quality projects and positions them to benefit from potential gains after the token is listed.

    Fair Participation
    Breaking away from traditional lottery systems and favoring large holders, MEXC Launchpad ensures that all eligible users can participate on equal footing. Users are not required to complete complex tasks to subscribe, a feat that significantly improves participation and enhances accessibility.

    Rigorous and Professional Project Selection
    MEXC has implemented a rigorous evaluation framework that assesses projects across multiple dimensions, including technology and innovation, team background, and development potential. This professional vetting process ensures that only high-quality projects are featured, helping users manage investment risk effectively.

    Flexible and Diverse Subscription Models
    Users can participate using designated tokens, with both non-oversubscription and oversubscription models available. In the non-oversubscribed model, users receive tokens based on the amount committed. The oversubscribed model uses a proportional allocation mechanism to ensure a fair distribution process.
    The debut MEXC Launchpad event offers BTC-based subscriptions, featuring special discount packages tailored to different types of users.

    • New User Exclusive: Subscribe at up to 90% off (as low as 10% of the market price), with subscription limits ranging from 5 to 55 USDT and a total supply of 4 BTC.
    • All Users: Enjoy a 20% discount on subscriptions, with subscription limits from 25 to 250 USD1 and a total supply of 3 BTC.
    • Referral Rewards: Earn a 5 USDT bonus for each new user referred, up to a maximum of 100 USDT in referral rewards.
    • Subscription Period: June 6 to June 20

    “The release of MEXC Launchpad marks a major milestone in MEXC’s commitment to inclusive finance,” said Tracy Jin, COO of MEXC. “By offering a fair and simple subscription model, we’re making premium project investment accessible to everyone, not just a privileged few. Choosing BTC as the first featured asset opens a new channel for everyday users to participate in “digital gold.” Looking ahead, we’ll continue introducing high-quality projects to bring more value to our global users.”

    Cryptocurrency investing involves significant risk and is subject to market volatility. Investors may face potential loss of principal. Please ensure you thoroughly understand the project details and carefully evaluate your risk tolerance before making any investment decisions.

    The first BTC Launchpad event is now live on MEXC. For more details, visit the official Launchpad page: https://www.mexc.com/launchpad

  • MIL-OSI: Lucinity Appoints Payoneer CCO and Goldman Sachs MD as Strategic Advisors

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    REYKJAVIK, Iceland, June 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lucinity has expanded its Advisory Council with the appointment of industry leaders Micheal Sheehy, Chief Compliance Officer at Payoneer, and Konstantinos Rizakos, Managing Director of Compliance Engineering at Goldman Sachs. Both bring deep expertise to Lucinity from their experience in managing large compliance and technology programs across global financial institutions.

    Lucinity helps financial institutions detect and investigate financial crime faster and smarter using AI-powered tools. Its Advisory Council brings together industry leaders to guide the company’s international expansion, go-to-market strategy, and customer-driven product innovation.

    Micheal brings over a decade of leadership across AML/CTF, payments compliance, and regulatory risk management. He has extensive experience leading global FCC/compliance operations in the U.S., Europe, and APAC. At Payoneer and throughout his career, he has built and scaled compliance programs, managed regulatory obligations across highly regulated markets, and implemented advanced RegTech solutions. His hands-on expertise with the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act, various EU AML directives, and multiple APAC regulatory frameworks will be instrumental in guiding Lucinity’s strategy to serve clients operating globally.

    Konstantinos has been a leading figure in compliance technology for over twenty years, having run the Compliance application portfolios at Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley. He has been an advocate of machine learning, workflow automation, and large-scale data platforms, and has driven their adoption in the industry as a whole. In the (new) age of AI, he plays an active role in AI product governance and in steering enterprise platforms, both through committee memberships and by launching an AI product management course at NYU Stern School of Business.

    Micheal and Konstantinos both bring a rare combination of regulatory expertise and technical depth that will help shape Lucinity’s global strategy and platform evolution. Their expertise will help Lucinity deepen its impact: improving investigation efficiency, enhancing team productivity, and reducing the cost and complexity of compliance for financial institutions.

    “We brought in Micheal and Konstantinos because they’ve built and run compliance programs at the highest levels. They know what works, what breaks, and what it takes to scale. They understand where compliance is headed, and with their guidance, our product will be moving faster, getting better, and raising the bar for the industry,” said Guðmundur Kristjánsson (GK), CEO and Founder of Lucinity.

    Lucinity’s Advisory Council now includes:

    • Ed Wilson – Former Partner at Venable LLP with legal expertise in cross-border financial law 
    • Tanya Ziv – Former CCO at Visa Cross-Border Solutions and Former COO at Yapily

    • John McCarthy – Former AML/Sanctions Officer at Airbnb with law enforcement expertise
    • Micheal Sheehy – Chief Compliance Officer at Payoneer 
    • Konstantinos Rizakos – Managing Director of Compliance Engineering at Goldman Sachs

    As Lucinity continues to scale globally, the addition of Micheal and Konstantinos brings vital real-world insight to further align Lucinity’s platform with the goals of global compliance leaders.

    Shareholder event

    With a shareholder base of more than 12,000, we feel it is important to prioritise equal access to this event to as many Shareholders as possible throughout the country and we therefore host the Annual Shareholder Event online.

    Shareholder event
    The Company’s Annual Shareholder Event continues to be well received and provides an important opportunity for Shareholders to hear from the Investment Manager on topics such as performance and investment activity, to ask questions of your Board, and to receive insights and updates from the portfolio companies.

    With a shareholder base of more than 12,000, we feel it is important to prioritise equal access to this event to as many Shareholders as possible in the country and we therefore host the Annual Shareholder Event online. Holding the event online, rather than in person, is a more cost-effective way of reaching a larger audience, thereby benefiting all Shareholders. This year’s event has been scheduled for 10:30am to 11:45am on the morning of the AGM, Tuesday, 15 July 2025.

    You can sign up for the Annual Shareholder Event at https://proven.connectid.cloud. If you have any questions about the event or if you would like any support with registering, then please contact Beringea via events@beringea.co.uk.

  • MIL-OSI: Treasury debt ratio declines by 5% upon settlement of HF-Fund

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    The proposal for the settlement of HF-Fund was presented at meetings held on 10 April 2025 with bondholders in series HFF34 and HFF44. It was approved by a majority of votes. The value of the HFF bonds in the settlement is estimated at ma.kr 651.

    Thereafter, in a proposed fiscal budget supplement, authorisation for settlement was requested in accordance with the proposal. The proposed budget supplement was recently passed by Parliament.

    The settlement of HF-Fund’s obligations will take place on 12 June 2025. In connection with the settlement, the Treasury will issue nine new Treasury bond series (see table) with a combined nominal value of ISK 487 bn.

      Nominal value
    RIKS 29 0917              67,000,000,000
    RIKS 34 1016              60,353,539,382
    RIKS 36 0815              59,000,000,000
    RIKS 39 1115              49,000,000,000
    RIKS 41 0815              50,000,000,000
    RIKS 44 1017              50,313,049,596
    RIKS 47 1115              48,000,000,000
    RIKS 50 0915              47,000,000,000
    RIKB 32 1015              56,000,000,000
       

    With the delivery of the said bonds, the Treasury will pay in full the loans granted to it by HF-Fund in 2020 and 2021, in the combined amount of ISK 238 bn.

    The Treasury will also deliver EUR 378 m (about ISK 55 bn) from foreign currency deposits financed with a recent Eurobond issue.

    Upon settlement, the Treasury will receive HF-Fund´s assets other than those used for the settlement, including The New Housing Fund bonds, as well as a loan portfolio, and bonds issued by leasing company Bríet, in the total amount of ISK 222 bn.

    The net effect on the Treasury Part A debt ratio (according to Maastricht criteria) is to lower the debt ratio by just over 5% of GDP.
