查理控股(OTCQB:CHUC)與IKE科技簽署協議,將推出革命性年齡驗證電子煙產品以解決FDA對青少年接觸的擔憂

IKE專利生物識別BLE藍牙晶片與區塊鏈應用程式,將確保未成年人無法啟動或使用查理斯控股的年齡驗證產品。IKE授權協議賦予查理斯控股在青少年防癮領域(FDA首要監管重點)的先發優勢,並享有三年獨家銷售權,適用於年齡驗證型尼古丁替代產品。查理公司將於今春以旗下熱門的SBX尼古丁類比產品線測試IKE年齡驗證系統;同時計劃將此革命性技術整合至其PACHA品牌電子尼古丁傳遞系統(ENDS)。加州科斯塔梅薩, 2026年1月12日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 高端蒸汽產品領域的行業領導者查理控股公司(Charlie's Holdings, Inc.)(OTCQB:CHUC)(下稱「查理控股」或「本公司」)今日宣布,已與IKE Tech LLC(下稱「IKE」)簽署最終授權協議,將在美國商業化首個基於人工智慧的區塊鏈年齡驗證系統,用於蒸汽產品的年齡限制管理。電子煙及相關霧化產品被廣泛認可為比燃燒式香菸風險更低的替代品。據此,過去十五年間美國電子煙使用率顯著增長,而燃燒式香菸吸食率則持續下降。公共衛生倡導者對此發展深表欣慰。80-90%的成年消費者偏好調味型霧化產品。電子煙產業與公共衛生官員均已認知到,80-90%的成年消費者偏好調味煙油產品而非菸草、薄荷或「原味」煙油,並理解若無調味煙油產品可供選擇,多數成年吸菸者將持續使用傳統燃燒型產品。然而基於「調味霧化產品可能高度吸引青少年」的假設——且公共衛生首要任務應是防止未成年人接觸尼古丁——迄今美國食品藥物管理局(FDA)尚未核准任何調味霧化產品在美國銷售。加州、麻州、紐約州部分地區及全美眾多區域亦對調味電子煙產品實施嚴格限制甚至全面禁令。此類禁令導致非法進口產品激增、零售商陷入混亂,最不幸的是,許多本可轉用危害程度低得多的調味電子煙產品的成年吸菸者,如今喪失了合法調味產品的選擇權。在此環境下,顯而易見的解決之道是:唯有透過「年齡驗證機制」管控調味電子煙產品,徹底杜絕未成年消費者啟動或使用裝置的可能性,方能讓成年吸菸者獲得他們渴望的調味霧化產品,從而取代危害性遠高於電子煙的傳統燃燒式香菸。眾多霧化產品企業已投入數年心力與數百萬美元研發年齡驗證系統。然而多數系統未具備「持續年齡驗證」功能(可能導致成年消費者購買後,產品被未成年人使用),或因驗證機制過於複雜繁瑣而使裝置失去商業可行性。此外,迄今為止,尚未有任何實施年齡驗證的電子煙產品獲得美國食品藥物管理局(FDA)授權於美國市場銷售。持續年齡驗證是防止青少年使用的唯一有效手段查理的年齡驗證型SBX一次性電子煙——採用IKE專利技術——透過藍牙低功耗晶片與生物特徵驗證,持續即時控制裝置,防止未成年消費者啟動或使用本產品。在多中心人體工學驗證研究中,針對以下三項指標進行評估:(i) 防止未成年人接觸電子煙產品之有效性、(ii) 使用便利性、(iii) 安全性,結果顯示:• 100% 使用者成功完成年齡驗證• 0% 未成年使用者能成功啟用裝置• 100% 裝置在閒置一段時間或失去藍牙訊號後自動停用• 91% 使用者評定應用程式「極易」或「非常易」於操作• 僅 1% 的任務嘗試出現錯誤人類因素驗證研究結果證實,IKE年齡驗證系統能有效防止未成年人接觸,同時為成年使用者提供高度友善的操作體驗。完整研究報告將發布於clinicaltrials.gov網站,摘要可於https://www.iketech.com/clinical-trials/protocols查閱。查理公司將於今春透過旗下熱門產品SBX尼古丁類比品的特別系列,對IKE年齡驗證系統進行市場測試;同時,查理公司計劃將這項革命性技術整合至其PACHA品牌的電子尼古丁傳遞系統(ENDS)。查理公司總裁亨利·西奇尼亞諾解釋:「市場亟需能滿足FDA對青少年接觸電子煙顧慮的技術解決方案...這意味著針對未成年人無法使用的調味電子煙,存在數十億美元的市場商機。」 「我們相信查理公司有望成為首家向FDA證明『年齡門檻調味電子煙產品確實符合公共衛生保護標準』的企業。此項突破不僅將改變查理公司的命運,更將重塑整個產業格局。」IKE科技總裁約翰·帕特森闡述:「IKE正為全球建立負責任的電子煙藍圖。我們與查理公司的協議開創業界先河,透過專利技術實現三重目標:保障公共健康、確保法規合規、推動產業永續發展。選擇與查理斯合作,是因為其無尼古丁SBX產品線能讓年齡門檻技術跳過標準PMTA審核時程,立即部署至美國市場。此合作證明產業可凝聚製造商、監管機構與創新者,共同守護青少年、保障供應鏈安全,並確保成年人負責任地使用產品。」查理公司營運長萊恩·斯通普表示:「年齡驗證機制既是負責任的商業實踐,亦為查理公司創造顯著競爭優勢。透過主動為無需FDA核准的產品實施年齡驗證,查理公司將向公共衛生官員及注重合規的全國性便利店連鎖企業證明,本公司對法規遵循與青少年防堵措施的絕對承諾。」關於查理控股公司查理控股公司(OTCQB:CHUC)是高端蒸汽產品領域的行業領導者。公司透過子公司查理粉筆灰有限責任公司(Charlie's Chalk Dust, LLC),向全球精選經銷商、專業零售商及第三方線上轉售商銷售產品,已開發出涵蓋多元品牌風格、風味組合及創新產品形式的完整產品組合。欲了解更多資訊,請造訪查理企業官網:Chuc.com,以及旗下品牌網站:sbxvape.com、CharliesChalkDust.com、enjoypachamama.com 及 Pacha.co。關於 IKE Tech 有限責任公司IKE Tech 有限責任公司是由 Ispire Technology Inc.、Touch Point Worldwide Inc.(以 Berify 名義經營)及 Chemular Inc. 共同組成的合資企業。IKE 致力於為電子煙裝置開發新一代身分與年齡驗證(IAV)系統。其專利藍牙低功耗系統單晶片技術,使製造商能將可客製化且互通的存取控制系統嵌入電子煙裝置,透過即時行動裝置與生物特徵驗證機制,確保僅授權成人使用並防止未成年人接觸。安全港聲明本新聞稿包含《1995年私人證券訴訟改革法案》安全港條款所界定之「前瞻性陳述」,包括但不限於關於本公司整體業務、現有及預期市場,以及未來銷售與支出預期的聲明。諸如「預期」、「預估」、「應」、「相信」、「目標」、「 「規劃」、「目標」、「估計」、「潛力」、「預測」、「可能」、「將」、「可能」、「應」、「意圖」等詞彙及其變體或否定形式,以及類似表述,皆旨在識別此類前瞻性陳述。前瞻性陳述受多種風險與不確定性影響,其中多數涉及超出本公司控制範圍的因素或情況。基於下列因素(包括但不限於),本公司實際成果可能與前瞻性陳述所載或暗示內容存在重大差異:本公司能否持續於OTCQB市場掛牌交易;未來是否符合升級至全國性證券交易所的上市要求; 公司能否成功提升銷售額並開拓新市場;公司含尼古丁產品的PMTA申請能否獲FDA核准,以及FDA對公司未來尼古丁產品PMTA申請的裁決;公司為客戶製造生產產品的能力;公司開發新產品的能力;現有及未來產品的市場接受度; 遵守影響尼古丁、合成尼古丁、含尼古丁替代品產品及含大麻二酚產品之政府法規所涉及的複雜性、成本與時間; 因使用本公司產品引發的訴訟風險;政府監管風險;競爭產品的影響;以及本公司維持與提升品牌的能力,此外還包括本公司最新季度報告(10-Q表)、年度報告(10-K表)及其他美國證券交易委員會(SEC)申報文件所載之其他風險因素。本新聞稿所載前瞻性陳述係基於管理層當前預期、估計、預測及假設,並以發布當日資訊為準。除法律要求外,本公司無義務因新資訊、未來事件或預期變動而更新本新聞稿所含任何前瞻性陳述。投資者聯絡窗口:IR@charliesholdings.com 電話:949-570-0691消息來源:Charlie's Holdings, Inc.

Charlie’s Holdings (OTCQB:CHUC) Signs Agreement with IKE Tech to Commercialize Transformational Age-Gated Vapes that Will Address FDA Concerns Related to Youth Access

SBX Product Line Will Feature First-Ever AI-Powered Blockchain-Based Age-Gating System for Vape ProductsIKE's patented biometric BLE Bluetooth chip and blockchain-based app will enable Charlie's to ensure that underage individuals will not be able to activate or utilize the Company's age-gated products.The IKE Licensing Agreement provides CHUC with a first mover advantage in youth access prevention (one of the FDA's top priorities) and a three-year exclusivity period for age-gated nicotine analogue products.Charlie's will test market the IKE age-gating system this spring with the Company's popular SBX nicotine analogue product line; simultaneously, Charlie's intends to incorporate the revolutionary technology into its PACHA branded Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS).COSTA MESA, CA, Jan 12, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Charlie's Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:CHUC) ("Charlie's" or the "Company"), an industry leader in the premium vapor products space, today reported that the Company has signed a definitive licensing agreement with IKE Tech LLC ("IKE") to commercialize the first-ever AI-powered blockchain-based age-gating system for vape products in the United States.E-cigarettes and related vapor products are widely recognized as lower risk alternatives to combustible cigarettes. Accordingly, over the last 15 years, e-cigarette usage in the United States has grown significantly while combustible cigarette smoking rates have dropped. Public health advocates are pleased by this development.80-90% of adult consumers prefer flavored vapor productsBoth the e-cigarette industry and public health officials have come to recognize that 80-90% of adult consumers prefer flavored vapor products over tobacco, menthol, or "clear" flavors and understand that most adult cigarette smokers will continue using traditional combustible products if flavored vapor products are not available. However, operating on the assumption that flavored vapor products can be highly attractive to youth - and that the priority for public health must be the prevention of nicotine usage by underage consumers - to date, the FDA has not authorized for sale in the United States a single flavored vapor product.California, Massachusetts, parts of New York State, and many other regions across the country have also imposed significant restrictions or outright bans on flavored ENDS products. These bans have led to an explosion of illicit foreign products, confusion among retailers, and, most unfortunately, to the elimination of legal flavored products as an option for many adult cigarette smokers who would prefer to switch to far less harmful (flavored) vapes.In this environment, it is apparent that the only way to provide adult smokers with the flavored vapor products that they desire over far more harmful combustible cigarettes, is to "age-gate" flavored vapor products in such a way as to eliminate the possibility that underage consumers can activate or utilize the devices.Numerous companies in the vapor products industry have spent years and millions of dollars on the development of age-gating systems. Most of these systems, however, do not feature "continuous age-gating" (and may, therefore, result in a scenario where the ineffectively age-gated product is purchased by an adult consumer and subsequently used by an underage individual), or the age-gating mechanism is so complex and cumbersome that it renders the device commercially infeasible. Further, to date, no age-gated vapor product has received FDA authorization to be sold in the US market.Continuous age-gating is the only effective means of preventing youth usageCharlie's age-gated SBX Disposable vape - utilizing IKE's patented technology - prevents underage consumers from activating or utilizing the device using BLE-enabled chips and biometric authentication to control the device continuously and in real-time.In a multi-center Human Factors Validation Study designed to evaluate (i) effectiveness in preventing underage access to the ENDS products, (ii) usability, and (iii) safety, results showed:100% of users successfully completed age verification0% of underage users were able to activate a device100% of devices deactivated after a period of inactivity or loss of Bluetooth signal91% rated the app "Extremely Easy" or "Very Easy" to useErrors occurred in only 1% of task attemptsThe results of the Human Factors Validation Study confirm that the IKE age-gating system effectively prevents underage access and provides a highly user-friendly experience for adults. Full findings from the study will be published on clinicaltrials.gov, and the Abstract can be found on https://www.iketech.com/clinical-trials/protocolsCharlie's will test market the IKE age-gating system this spring with a special line of the Company's popular SBX nicotine analogue product; simultaneously, Charlie's intends to incorporate the revolutionary technology into its PACHA branded Electronic Nicotine Delivery Systems (ENDS)."There is a large un-met need for technologies that can satisfy or accommodate concerns the FDA has related to youth access... which means there is a multi-BILLION market opportunity for flavored vapes that are inoperable for underage individuals," explained Henry Sicignano, Charlie's President. "We believe Charlie's could become the first Company to demonstrate to the FDA that age-gated flavored vape products are indeed ‘appropriate for the protection of public health.' Such a success would not only be game changing for Charlie's, but also transformational for the entire industry."John Patterson, President of IKE Tech explained, "IKE is establishing the blueprint for responsible vaping globally. Our agreement with Charlie's represents an industry first in deploying proprietary technologies that protect public health, enable regulatory compliance, and drive sustainable industry growth. We chose to partner with Charlie's because Charlie's non-nicotine SBX product line enables immediate deployment of age-gated technology to the US market, ahead of standard PMTA timelines. This partnership is proof that the industry can bring manufacturers, regulators, and innovators together to protect youth, secure the supply chain, and ensure responsible access for adults.""We believe age-gating is both a responsible business practice as well as a significant competitive advantage for Charlie's," commented Ryan Stump, Charlie's Chief Operating Officer. "By voluntarily age-gating a product that does not require FDA approval, Charlie's will demonstrate to public health officials - and to compliance-minded national convenience store chains - that the Company is absolutely committed to regulatory compliance and youth access prevention."About Charlie's Holdings, Inc.Charlie's Holdings, Inc.

聯想之星與君聯資本所投企業精鋒醫療在港交所成功上市

香港, 2026年1月12日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 1月8日,聯想控股旗下聯想之星與君聯資本所投手術機器人領軍企業精鋒醫療(02675.HK)成功登陸港交所,發行價為每股43.24港元,股票代碼:2675.HK。這家公司上市首日開盤漲超38%,市值達到230億港元。精鋒醫療成立於2017年,是中國領先的手術機器人公司,是中國首家、全球第二家同時取得多孔腔鏡手術機器人、單孔腔鏡手術機器人及自然腔道手術機器人註冊審批的公司。公司專注於手術機器人及配套器械的研發、生產與銷售,產品覆蓋泌尿外科、婦科、普外科、胸外科等多科室微創手術需求。精鋒醫療亦是國家高新技術企業、國家專精特新"小巨人"企業,曾獲2023年度國家科學技術進步獎二等獎。公司在全球共擁有700多項專利及專利申請,其中核心產品超過400項專利,創新突破打破了我國手術機器人領域進口技術的長期壟斷。作為一家醫療器械行業的先進手術機器人公司,精鋒醫療擁有多孔腔鏡手術機器人和單孔腔鏡手術機器人。弗若斯特沙利文資料顯示,2024年精鋒醫療在中國售出20台多孔腔鏡手術機器人,在國內製造商中銷量排名第一。截至2025年6月30日,公司核心產品全球銷售合約量已達61台,並已完成超過14,000例機器人輔助臨床手術,產品性能與可靠性得到市場驗證。2025年10月,精鋒醫療自主研發的精鋒單孔腔鏡手術機器人SP1000及單多孔手術機器人超級系統MSP2000正式獲得歐盟CE認證(MDR)。這標誌著全球首個"單多孔一體化"手術機器人平台成功進入國際市場,開啟了由中國智慧定義的"全能微創"手術新時代。聯想之星:連續出手兩次,唯一一家系統佈局醫療健康的早期投資機構一路走來,這家由天津大學校友王建辰和高元倩創立的公司得到了聯想之星、聯想控股、君聯資本、紅杉中國、博裕投資等眾多知名投資者的支持。其中,聯控旗下聯想之星是股東裡面唯一一家系統佈局醫療健康領域的早期投資機構。按照230億港元市值粗略計算,兩筆投資已經讓聯想之星獲得了近20倍的賬面回報。"精鋒醫療成功上市,也使得聯想之星在人工智能、機器人領域得到進一步深化。"聯想之星總裁、主管合伙人王明耀表示,"人工智能、機器人將持續改造各行各業,手術機器人是其中一個非常好的品類,會發揮越來越大的作用。"在2018年與精鋒醫療初次接觸,聯想之星團隊便發現對方在眾多方面表現驚艷,但嚴謹的他們選擇進一步調研,迅速啟動了對手術機器人賽道的橫向掃描與深度研究。通過走訪大量醫院與專家訪談,以及與業內人士交流,最終構成了他們重注前的信心與基礎。感受到這家公司蘊含的發展潛力後,聯想之星果斷做出投資的決定,並對其追加投資。此後,借助聯想之星的投後幫助和創業CEO特訓班等資源,精鋒醫療的發展得到進一步提速。事實上,在當時果斷並堅定地投手術機器人,需要莫大的勇氣和決心。能做出如此前瞻性的快速決策,源於聯想之星自上而下的打法,先做深入分析,然後再尋找項目。這樣的打法,也有賴於此前多年的認知、資源、經驗的積累。早在2010年,聯想之星便開始關注人工智能的底層技術。到了2015年,聯想之星明確了人工智能、機器人會持續改造各行各業,並獨立成立了投資小組,當時在硅谷的團隊也在該賽道投了幾十個項目。正是基於長期且深刻的認知,聯想之星在2020年拿出當時一次能給到單個項目的最大金額,並且在下一輪追加投資精鋒醫療,成為精鋒醫療股東里唯一一家系統性佈局醫療健康領域的早期投資機構。驕人成績的取得,也源於聯想之星在醫療健康領域的多年深耕。早在2010年,聯想之星便將醫療健康作為重點投資佈局的領域之一,成為最早系統佈局醫療健康領域的早期投資機構之一。隨著優秀的項目越投越多,這家投資機構在醫療健康領域形成了"生物醫藥"與"數智醫療"兩大板塊。在聯想之星的佈局中,生物醫藥包括創新藥、基因技術與服務、診斷與高值耗材等;數智醫療則是利用人工智能、大數據、機器人等技術,對藥物研發、醫療器械、醫療服務、保險支付與健康管理等各方面進行升級賦能的機會。隨著科創賽道競爭白熱化,聯想之星表示將選擇堅持投更"新"投更"精"。"投更新,是要在行業明確的趨勢和拐點到來之前,提前進行預判;投更精,是要在估值上漲的前提下,優中選優。"在王明耀看來,人工智能、機器人、大數據等最新技術與整個醫療產業的結合,實際上蘊含著非常大的機會,"基於聯想之星的能力和經驗積累,我們未來在醫療健康領域會繼續加大投入。"君聯資本:與社保基金中關村自主創新專項基金首次迎來投資企業上市聯想控股旗下君聯資本與社保基金中關村自主創新專項基金(以下簡稱"社保中關村專項基金")亦在2024年、2025年三次投資精鋒醫療。投資後,君聯資本充分發揮在醫療科技領域的深厚產業資源與投後服務能力,在公司戰略規劃、高端人才引進、全球市場拓展等方面提供了支持,助力公司鞏固技術壁壘並加速產品商業化落地。作為中關村"先行先試"改革之一,社保中關村專項基金首次迎來投資企業上市,這一里程碑事件不僅彰顯了君聯資本在硬科技領域的敏銳洞察力和投資能力,更凸顯了長期耐心資本在支持科技創新方面邁出的重要一步。君聯資本表示:精鋒醫療的成功上市,是其以原創技術突破國際壟斷,引領中國手術機器人產業發展的標誌性成果。公司憑借全面的產品佈局、經臨床驗證的卓越性能以及快速商業化的能力,不僅在國內市場迅速確立領導地位,更在國際舞台上展現出強大競爭力。期待公司以上市為新起點,持續加大研發創新與生產投入,進一步拓展臨床應用與全球市場,賦能全球外科醫生與患者,為推動中國高端醫療裝備的自主可控與產業升級做出更大貢獻。長期以來,君聯資本在醫療健康領域進行系統性佈局,重點關注生物技術、創新藥、醫療器械及AI+醫療等前沿方向。在高端醫療器械與醫療機器人賽道,君聯資本表示,將持續看好具備底層技術創新和全球商業化能力的優秀企業。 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

市值超800億 成功上市的MiniMax以「極致效率」重塑全球AGI新格局

香港, 2026年1月9日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 1月9日,全球領先的通用人工智能科技公司——MiniMax(0100.HK)正式登陸港交所。此次上市不僅是MiniMax發展歷程中的里程碑事件,更一舉刷新全球AGI行業最快IPO紀錄——從成立到掛牌僅用48個月,彰顯出公司極致的運營效率與強勁的全球化發展勢能,為全球AI行業的商業化進階樹立了全新標杆。全球化戰略成效顯著,付費用戶與單客價值雙重增長據悉,MiniMax成立於2022年初,自誕生之日起便秉持「生而全球化」的發展定位,是業內少數從創立初期就專注全模態大模型研發的科技企業。亮眼的市場表現印證了其全球化戰略的成功,2025年前九個月,公司營收實現同比超170%的爆發式增長,其中海外市場收入貢獻占比超70%。這種高增速的海外拓展節奏與「海外為主、國內為輔」的收入結構倒掛,不僅展現出MiniMax在全球AI市場的核心競爭力,更體現出公司產品與技術體系對不同區域市場的高度適配性,為行業全球化佈局提供了可借鑒的實踐樣本。同時,作為「全球唯四全模態進入第一梯隊」的大模型公司,MiniMax憑藉文本、語音、視頻全模態全棧自研構建的深厚技術護城河,成功打造了極具可拓展潛力的B+C雙輪商業閉環,並實現了高效的商業化落地。截至目前,MiniMax業務已覆蓋全球200多個國家和地區,累計服務用戶超2.12億。從2023年底到2025年9月30日的不到兩年時間裡,其AI原生產品付費用戶數暴漲15倍;截至2025年9月30日,To C端收入同比增長181%,To B端收入同比增長160%。其中,B端業務毛利率高達69.4%,展現出健康的盈利能力;C端營收占比超71%,成為驅動收入規模化增長的核心引擎。付費用戶規模與單客價值的雙重增長,凸顯MiniMax商業閉環的可行性與盈利潛力,以及市場對公司全模態技術產品的高度認可,同時,公司良性的增長格局亦為其未來業績的持續增長奠定了堅實基礎,也為後續業務拓展與技術創新提供了穩固的商業支撐。研發效率領先行業,上市賦能長期高質量發展在實現營收高速增長的同時,MiniMax展現出極強的成本控制與研發效率優勢。2025年前九個月,公司營收同比增長174.7%,研發開支僅同比增長30%;從成立至2025年9月,累計研發投入僅5億美元。對比行業巨頭Open AI累計400億至550億美元的研發花銷,MiniMax僅用不到1%的投入就躋身全球全模態大模型第一梯隊,這種極致性價比的研發模式,重塑了「AI研發需巨額資金堆砌」的行業固有認知。而此次成功登陸資本市場,一方面將為MiniMax構築堅實的現金流安全墊,有效增強企業抵禦市場波動的風險韌性,另一方面,依託國際資本平台的資源整合與賦能能力,進一步優化公司的研發投入的精准度與結構配比,降低研發成本,放大技術優勢與商業價值的協同效應,為公司的長期高質量發展注入強勁動力。總體而言,MiniMax的成功上市,不僅標誌著公司正式邁入資本化發展的新階段,更向全球市場展現了中國AGI企業的技術實力與商業化能力,為全球AI行業的發展注入了新活力。展望未來,伴隨上市進程的落地,MiniMax的資金實力將實現質的躍升,全球戰略佈局也將持續向縱深推進。依託這一發展契機,公司有望進一步夯實全模態技術壁壘,持續放大核心技術競爭優勢,不斷拓寬商業應用的邊界,為全球用戶創造更高價值體驗,同時充分釋放成長潛能,為投資者持續創造長期、穩定的投資回報。 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Capital Margin Trade Announces the Launch of Practical Trading Tools Designed For Structured Market Execution

LONDON, Jan 9, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Capital Margin Trade, a leading online brokerage firm, recently announced the launch of tools designed specifically for structured market execution, placing practicality ahead of feature volume. The initiative reflects a broader effort to refine how traders interact with the platform on a daily basis, particularly in environments where clarity, timing, and execution discipline tend to outweigh visual appeal or experimental features.The Capital Margin Trade trading platform is built around a straightforward premise. Trading tools should work together smoothly and remain accessible under real market conditions. Market access, charting, and order management are combined within a single interface, reducing the need to switch between sections during active trading. Over time, this type of structure often proves more valuable than frequent interface changes that require constant readjustment.Charting has been one of the more fully formed components of the platform. With multiple chart time frames, layered indicators, and customizable chart layouts, users have an opportunity to evaluate price action without extraneous distractions. The tools continue to remain stable even in times of increased volatility, which is often when stability can become a major issue. While the platform does not aim to replicate institutional-grade software, it offers sufficient analytical depth to support structured technical analysis and routine market monitoring.Execution tools on the Capital Margin Trade broker platform follow a similar logic. Orders can be placed and managed without interrupting the broader workflow, allowing traders to stay focused on market movement rather than interface navigation. Real-time price feeds across supported instruments provide continuous visibility, helping users react as conditions change. Execution speed, as with any platform, remains dependent on market conditions, though overall performance is generally consistent during standard trading hours.Risk management features are integrated directly into the trading process. Users can input a stop-loss and/or take-profit level at the time they enter a trade, or adjust those levels once their trades are active. This provides users with the opportunity to make decisions based upon their own risk assessment without forcing the use of pre-defined automated strategy templates. While some traders may look for deeper automation, others may value the ability to remain closely involved in managing exposure.Beyond execution and charting, the Capital Margin Trade trading platform includes a market overview section that offers context without constant interruptions. Instead of relying on frequent alerts, traders can access summarized information when needed. This quieter approach supports independent analysis and may suit users who prefer to interpret data rather than respond to prompts.Accessibility across devices remains consistent. The Capital Margin Trade broker infrastructure is web-based, allowing traders to access accounts from desktops, laptops, tablets, or smartphones without additional downloads. While mobile trading naturally limits screen space, essential functions such as monitoring positions and placing orders remain available, which can be useful for traders managing positions away from their primary setups.In terms of the way the user interacts with the platform, there are multiple layers of operational complexity. The account settings, margin controls, and view of all open positions are clearly defined and separate from each other, allowing for greater ease of managing exposure to risk without having to navigate through layers of menu options. During active market phases, this clarity can help reduce operational friction. Traders seeking highly customized algorithmic environments may find the setup more manual, though this appears intentional for users who prefer hands-on control.Funding and withdrawal processes follow established industry standards. The platform supports commonly used payment methods and prioritizes reliability over experimentation. While options may seem limited for users seeking alternative payment solutions, transaction procedures remain clear and supported by standard verification processes.Security is treated as a baseline requirement rather than a headline feature. Capital Margin Trade trading platform operations include user verification protocols and encrypted data handling designed to protect account access and transactional information without adding unnecessary complexity to daily use.Overall, the ongoing development of Capital Margin Trade broker services suggests a measured, methodical approach. The emphasis has shifted from seeking rapid expansion and numerous new features every few weeks to maintaining a consistent and reliable trading environment. The steady, long-term nature of this strategy could be attractive to those who have become accustomed to using a platform that they feel comfortable with over time, as opposed to having to adjust to rapidly changing tool behavior and workflow changes at short notice. In addition, for traders who place high value on stability, consistency, and predictability in their trading activities (i.e., those who are able to derive long-term benefits from the familiarity of a consistent trading environment), this long-term approach will likely lead to a more productive long-term trading experience than one based on continuous upgrades.About Capital Margin TradeCapital Margin Trade is an online brokerage firm that provides web-based access to global financial markets, utilizing a web-based trading platform. Capital Margin Trade is focused on providing useful tools to assist traders, along with a stable, functional platform structure that supports traders who take a disciplined, execution-oriented approach to trading versus traders who want to constantly experiment with feature-rich platforms.Media ContactBrand: Capital Margin TradeContact: Media Relations TeamWebsite: https://capitalmargintrade.com Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Hall Chadwick to Convene Invitation-Only Capital Access Forum for APAC Corporates Exploring Global Capital Pathways

Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore January 8, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Hall Chadwick, the leading Australian-founded professional services firm with a 138-year legacy, will host an invitation-only investment forum in Singapore in March 2026, bringing together senior corporate leaders, global capital markets advisers and institutional investors to examine how Asia-Pacific companies can navigate evolving global capital markets and access deeper pools of capital, liquidity and strategic partners.The two-day forum will be held at Capella Singapore on 10–11 March 2026, with a private golf day on 9 March. The event will feature keynote addresses and panels from senior representatives of NASDAQ, leading global investors and capital markets specialists, alongside keynote speaker Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization.The forum is convened by Hall Chadwick, with Cohen & Company Capital Markets (CCM) participating as an anchor sponsor and contributor to the program. CCM is a highly active adviser in the Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) and de-SPAC space, and will share practical insights alongside other market participants, drawing on recent transaction experience including the HCAC transaction that culminated in a NASDAQ bell-ringing ceremony.Key Event Details (at a glance)Dates & Venue- 10–11 March 2026 — Capella Singapore- Golf Day: 9 March 2026Format- Invitation-only forum- Pre-arranged one-on-one corporate and investor meetings- Panels, closed-door roundtables and networking sessionsKeynote Speaker- Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President, The Trump OrganizationParticipants- NASDAQ leadership- Institutional investors and global funds- Capital markets advisers and transaction specialistsA defining moment for global capital and supply chainsGlobal capital markets are at an inflection point. Shifting interest-rate cycles, tighter capital conditions and heightened regulatory scrutiny are reshaping how and where companies raise capital. At the same time, supply chains in critical minerals, energy, technology and advanced manufacturing are being re-evaluated, creating new demands for scale, transparency and long-term institutional support.For Asia-Pacific corporates, these dynamics are driving a reassessment of capital strategy. Domestic markets remain important, but increasingly, companies are exploring international capital options to support growth, liquidity events, cross-border acquisitions and strategic partnerships. The U.S. capital markets, with their depth, institutional reach and sector specialisation, continue to play a central role in that global ecosystem.Capital optionality becomes a strategic advantage for APAC corporatesFor companies operating across the Asia-Pacific region, engagement with international capital markets is rarely a binary decision. Geopolitical complexity, regulatory considerations and investor perception all influence how boards and management teams approach global expansion and funding strategies.In this environment, optionality matters. Understanding how different capital structures work, how timing and jurisdictional considerations affect outcomes, and how investor expectations vary across markets enables corporates to prepare strategically, even if execution occurs later or through alternative pathways.Hall Chadwick’s Singapore Forum is designed to provide insight and perspective, enabling corporates to assess structures, partnerships and timing without presupposing outcomes or commitments.From strategy to execution: a forum designed for decision-makersUnlike large public conferences, Hall Chadwick’s Capital Access Forum 2026 is intentionally limited in size and highly curated. Each participating corporate will receive one to two private, pre-arranged meetings with financiers, sponsors and advisers aligned to their sector and strategic objectives.The agenda is built around execution-level discussion, covering:- SPAC and IPO pathways in current market conditions- Cross-border M&A and strategic partnerships- Regulatory frameworks and listing considerations- Institutional investor expectations and capital deployment trends- Sector-specific  dynamics  across  critical  minerals,  AI,  technology,  energy  and infrastructureThe emphasis is on practical insight: what works, what does not, and how successful transactions are being structured in today’s market.Perspectives from global capital market leadersA key highlight of the forum is the keynote address by Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization. With extensive experience in large-scale real estate, corporate development and international expansion, he brings a commercial perspective on navigating market cycles, unlocking growth opportunities and engaging global capital platforms.The program will also feature senior leadership from NASDAQ, offering insight into U.S. public markets, listing considerations and sector trends, alongside institutional investors and global funds actively deploying capital.Convening at the intersection of capital, strategy and executionHall Chadwick’s decision to convene the Singapore Forum reflects its evolution into a global corporate advisory platform operating at the intersection of capital, strategy and execution.Founded more than 138 years ago as a chartered accounting firm, Hall Chadwick has expanded well beyond its traditional accounting heritage to integrate global capital markets expertise. Today, the firm advises corporates on complex cross-border transactions, U.S. public listings and SPAC structures, working alongside specialist partners to deliver end-to-end outcomes.The forum provides a live demonstration of this model in practice, including insights drawn from Hall Chadwick’s recent HCAC transaction, which delivered a four-times return and culminated in a NASDAQ bell-ringing ceremony.Reflecting the Forum’s focus on global capital connectivity and institutional engagement, Donald Trump Jr., Executive Vice President of The Trump Organization and the Forum’s keynote speaker, said: “I look forward to joining top industry leaders, financiers, strategic partners, and market specialists in Singapore this spring.”Kayla Hardy, Partner of Hall Chadwick (Hong Kong), said: “Global capital markets are becoming more complex, more selective and more interconnected. This forum is about giving corporate leaders clarity; not just on the opportunities, but on the structures, timing and execution required to access them responsibly. Singapore provides a neutral platform for those conversations, and we are pleased to bring together market leaders to share practical insight drawn from real transactions.”Who the forum is designed forThe forum is designed for senior decision-makers, including:- CEOs, CFOs and corporate development leaders- Corporate executives across mining, resources, energy, technology, infrastructure and manufacturing- Investment firms, funds, family offices and financial services executives- Companies exploring international capital markets, strategic partnerships or liquidity eventsAttendance is by invitation only, with participation capped to ensure meaningful engagement.For companies not initially included on the invitation list, a limited opportunity is available to submit an expression of interest for consideration, subject to review and availability. Requests must be submitted by 5.00pm on 28 January 2026.Registration and enquiriesCorporate attendees who receive an invitation may register via the exclusive Eventbrite link provided in their invitation package.Investors who have received an invitation, or who wish to enquire about participation, may contact:Kristina Khlopunovakkhlopunova@hallchadwick.comMedia enquiries:Hall ChadwickMike Willeseemwillesee@hallchadwick.com.auFinancial & Corporate Relations Pty Ltd.Maggie Aum.au@fcr.com.au Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Iluvatar CoreX Soars by 31.54% in Trading Debut: ‘Genuine Leader’ of Domestic AI Computing Power Chips Emerges

HONG KONG, January 8, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – On January 8, Shanghai Iluvatar CoreX Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (“Iluvatar CoreX”, stock code: 9903.HK), the highly anticipated Chinese GPGPU chip design company, officially commenced trading on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The stock surged over 31.54% at the opening bell, propelling its market capitalization past the HK$ 48.37 billion threshold.The impressive first-day performance not only validated the market's strong expectations for the substitution of domestic computing power but also highlighted the robust investment value of Iluvatar CoreX, serving as the “computing power chip backbone” for domestic large models. As a scarce GPGPU stock in Hong Kong's equity market, Iluvatar CoreX has emerged as the most definitive core investee amid the AI investment boom by virtue of its lucid business logic and solid commercialization achievements, offering an optimal timing window for investors to position themselves within the domestic high-end computing power sector.Full-stack technological upgrades solidify the computing power foundation for domestic large modelsAt the pivotal juncture where AI large models transition from technical validation to scaled deployment, the technical maturity and consistency of supply of GPGPU directly determine the pace and penetration of industrial implementation. Through its fully-stack self-developed technology path and continuously evolving GPGPU architecture, Iluvatar CoreX has emerged as the most dependable “computing power chip backbone” for domestic large models, breaking the monopoly held by international giants in the high-end computing power sector.As the China’s first company to achieve mass production of GPGPU chips for both training and inference, Iluvatar CoreX has established a product ecosystem spanning the entire lifecycle of large models: the “TG” series training chips prioritizes massive data processing and model training, addressing the high-intensity computing demands of large-scale parameter models; while the “ZK” series inference chips are optimized for deployment scenarios and address inference-specific requirements such as low latency, high throughput, and optimal power efficiency, delivering excellent performance-to-cost ratio for large language model inference tasks. Crucially, adhering to the "hardware-software integration” philosophy, Iluvatar CoreX has independently developed a software stack that ensures full compatibility with mainstream GPGPU programming ecosystem and platform, thereby significantly reducing customer migration costs.Through three generations of GPGPU architectural iterations and progressive software stack enhancement, Iluvatar CoreX has achieved steady advancement in computing performance, ecosystem compatibility, and adaptability across diverse application scenarios, positioning itself as a genuine technology-driven enterprise rather than a “concept company” reliant on policy incentives. As domestic large models transition from technical validation to in-depth industry integration and scaled deployment, the demand for a high-performance, cost-effective, and consistently supplied domestic computing backbone is poised for explosive growth. Leveraging its first-mover advantage in mass production, proven product reliability through bulk deployment, and extensive hardware/software ecosystem compatibility, Iluvatar CoreX has become a serious option for numerous technology giants and industry leaders pursuing computing autonomy.With a lucid business logic, Iluvatar CoreX stands as the most robust AI computing chip enterpriseAmidst the AI chip industry’s prevailing challenges of “splashing the cash with narrow profitability”, Iluvatar CoreX has charted a healthy trajectory of “technology implementation - scaled monetization - sustained growth” by virtue of its lucid business logic, establishing itself as the computing chip enterprise with the most solid capabilities for sustainable development in China.Unlike business models that rely heavily on government subsidies, research projects, or single demonstration orders, Iluvatar CoreX rapidly penetrated the market by leveraging its products’ advantages of enhanced efficiency, strong adaptability and high portability, with its customer base directly anchored to the most authentic and sustainable demand sources within the AI industry: cloud service providers, large data centers, and leading government and enterprise clients. The core procurement logic for these clients is acquiring continuous, stable, and scalable computing to support their massive AI training and inference operations. This generates predictable bulk orders and sustained repurchase potential for Iluvatar CoreX, aligning its revenue characteristics with rigid infrastructure investments, which forms a sustainable business model closely aligned with “directly delivering computing value”. From an investment perspective, Iluvatar CoreX’s business trajectory offers greater clarity and stronger cash flow visibility.Meanwhile, Iluvatar CoreX maintains an efficient and controlled pace in its R&D investments. Based on publicly available financial data, the “R&D expense/revenue” ratio of Iluvatar CoreX ranges between approximately 80% and 120%, representing the lowest level among comparable peers. This healthy return on investment ensures continuous technological iteration while avoiding operational pressures from reckless spending, which effectively reduces the risk of the Company being forced into strategic compromises or marginalized due to the pressure on the capital chain. Market analysis widely recognizes Iluvatar CoreX as the most likely enterprise to maintain its independent leadership position in long-term competition through its self-sustaining capabilities and technological accumulation.Performance continues to improve with promising growth prospectsSolid business logic brings impressive performance. As of June 2025, Iluvatar CoreX had cumulatively shipped over 52,000 units of GPGPU products, served over 290 cross-sector customers, and completed over 900 deployments and applications in essential sectors including financial services, healthcare and transportation. Revenue scale has experienced explosive growth, surging from RMB189 million in 2022 to RMB540 million in 2024, representing a compound annual growth rate of 68.8%. Revenue further increased by 64.2% to RMB324 million in the first half of 2025.What is even more noteworthy is its high-quality profit structure. In 2024, the gross margin for the Company’s GPGPU products reached 56.6%, and the overall gross margin remained at a high level of 50.1% in the first half of 2025. This data fully demonstrates that the Company’s products have gained genuine market recognition through technological premium pricing rather than relying on low-price competition, laying a solid foundation for long-term sustainable growth.The impressive performance of Iluvatar CoreX on its first day of listing represents the market’s “vote” for its solid accumulation over the past years and its core position in the golden track of AI computing. It has demonstrated its profit-making capability through clear business logic and its spending efficiency through healthy financial indicators. As AI investment transitions from conceptual phase to performance validation, companies like Iluvatar CoreX possessing technical hard power, genuine commercial momentum, and financial stability are poised to consistently deliver growth value amid the dual waves of AI technological revolution and domestic substitution.

Unearthing experimental data buried in scientific papers

TSUKUBA, Japan, Jan 8, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Technologies that underpin modern society, such as smartphones and automobiles, rely on a diverse range of functional materials. Materials scientists are therefore working to develop and improve new materials, but predicting material properties is no simple task. Data science is key to transforming this field, and new tools powered by artificial intelligence are expected to accelerate the exploration, collection, and management of materials property data worldwide.Researchers and artificial intelligence work together to collect experimental materials science data from papers worldwide and build a database. (Copyright: Kenji Tashiro. Instagram: ripplemarkmaker. CC-BY-4.0)The relationship between functional materials and their properties is complex. Even slight differences in composition or synthesis methods can affect electronic states and microstructures, often resulting in entirely different properties. For this reason, theoretical models alone cannot provide reliable predictions, and the intuition of researchers and engineers built on years of experience has played a significant role.Machine learning is a technology that can learn empirical trends rather than relying on theory. By applying machine learning to experimental data in materials science, it may be possible to replicate such intuition computationally. Large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, now support the daily lives of many people and are capable of flexible information extraction that takes background knowledge and context into account. This opens up the possibility of automating the process of converting complex information sources like scientific papers into structured data. If large-scale datasets of experimental data can be built through this approach, it is expected to enable researchers to gain inspiration through a bird's-eye view of the data, as well as to realize property predictions based on empirical trends using machine learning.A team led by Dr. Yukari Katsura, a Senior Researcher at the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), has focused on this potential and developed two new tools to accelerate the construction of Starrydata, a materials property database built from data collected from scientific papers. This work was recently published in the journal Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods."Graphs in the millions of papers published to date contain valuable experimental data collected by past researchers, and much of it remains untapped," says Prof. Katsura. In the Starrydata project, which she launched in 2015, data collection from papers was performed manually and supported by the independently developed Starrydata2 web system, successfully amassing an unprecedented volume of experimental data. The new tools are designed to further streamline this data collection process. "We found that by specifying a data structure and giving instructions to an LLM, we can accurately and comprehensively extract information about figures, tables, and samples from the text of paper PDFs across a wide range of fields."Prof. Katsura added, "Many publishers prohibit the use of artificial intelligence on paper PDFs, so we are currently developing the system to target open-access papers."The first tool, Starrydata Auto-Suggestion for Sample Information, is a function that reads the text of a paper and suggests candidate entries for data fields pre-designed for each materials domain; it is already integrated into the Starrydata2 web system. When a user pastes text from a paper's abstract or experimental methods section, it is sent to OpenAI's GPT via API, and candidate entries in English are automatically displayed below each input field.The second tool, Starrydata Auto-Summary GPT, deconstructs an entire open-access paper PDF uploaded by the user and automatically summarizes all descriptions of figures, tables, and samples appearing in the paper as a structured data in JSON format. The JSON data output is generated using ChatGPT's custom GPT feature, and the resulting data can be viewed as an easy-to-read table in a web browser. Although this data is not currently incorporated directly into the Starrydata database, it dramatically accelerates the work of data collectors in quickly locating target data and entering information. Note that reading data points from graph images is difficult for LLMs, so this task is performed by data collectors using an independently developed semi-automated tool."A paper is a logical structure assembled to convey the author's claims, but by deconstructing it and returning it to the form of experimental data, other researchers can also use it for their own research," says Dr. Katsura. "In this way, we are aiming for a future where experimental data from all materials science fields can be shared in digital format and viewed from a bird's-eye perspective."At present, Starrydata has only progressed in building databases for certain materials science fields, such as thermoelectric materials that convert heat and electricity, and magnets. However, as an open dataset that can be used for new materials development, it is beginning to be utilized primarily by leading researchers around the world. The team is advancing their research with the aim of raising broader awareness of the potential of such large-scale experimental data and establishing paper data collection as a recognized form of research within the scientific community.Further informationYukari KatsuraSenior Researcher, National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS)KATSURA.Yukari@nims.go.jp(Yukari Katsura is also an associate professor at University of Tsukuba and guest researcher at RIKEN)Paper: https://doi.org/10.1080/27660400.2025.2590811 About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials: Methods (STAM-M)STAM Methods is an open access sister journal of Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM), and focuses on emergent methods and tools for improving and/or accelerating materials developments, such as methodology, apparatus, instrumentation, modeling, high-through put data collection, materials/process informatics, databases, and programming. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAM-M Dr Kazuya SaitoSTAM Methods Publishing DirectorSAITO.Kazuya@nims.go.jpPress release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

Military Metals Drills 23.2 Meters of 2.22% Antimony Including 7.9 Meters of 4.9% Antimony and 23.2 Meters of 1.27 g/t Gold Including 6.2 Meters of 3.17 g/t Gold at Flagship Trojarova Project

Vancouver, British Columbia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - January 7, 2026) - Military Metals Corp. (CSE: MILI) (OTCQB: MILIF) (FSE: QN90) (the "Company" or "MILI") is pleased to report the first analytical results of the Company's definition drilling campaign at the 100% owned flagship Trojarová Antimony Gold Project (the "Project") in Slovakia as announced on November 4, 2025. The holes were designed to confirm historical drilling results and to support SLR Consulting's work towards establishing a current mineral resource estimate on the Project. These priority assay results represent the main mineralized zone from the first hole of the program, 25-TVA-001.Highlights of the Results from hole 25-TVA-001 Include:23.2 meters (m) of 2.22 % Antimony (Sb) over a true width of 20.1m from 144.3m to 167.5mIncluding: 7.9m of 4.9% Sb over a true width of 6.8m from 152.7m to 160.6m23.2m of 1.27 g/t Gold (Au) over a true width of 20.1m from 144.3m to 167.5mIncluding: 6.2m of 3.17 g/t Au over true width of 5.4m from 160.6m to 166.8mScott Eldridge, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, "We are thrilled by these first results from the Trojarová Antimony Gold Project confirmation drilling campaign. This validation of the quality and continuity of historical results provides crucial confidence as we proceed with the completion of the project's first modern Mineral Resource Estimate which is expected to be completed by SLR Consulting this quarter. We are confirming that Trojarová hosts antimony mineralization consistent with earlier work but now supported by contemporary assays. In the context of Europe's Critical Raw Materials Act, these results underscore Trojarová's potential to become a strategically important antimony project for the European Union at a time when secure, domestic supply of critical minerals has never been more important. Trojarová stands out as the only known antimony project in Europe with extensive historical drilling that can now be supported by modern drilling and assays. This combination significantly enhances the project's strategic relevance as the EU works to secure reliable, home-grown supply of critical minerals."The Company is working to complete the logging and sampling of the remaining drill core and to expedite the release of complete assay results as quickly as possible. Further details of the complete drill program will be included in future releases as the campaign's data is verified and finalized including professional location surveys of final drillhole collar locations.The complete results, outlined below in Table 1, show a distinct metal zonation within the main zone. Antimony and gold mineralization are consistently present throughout the main zone with a distinct 7.9m interval of Antimony enrichment from 152.7m to 160.6m immediately overlying a 6.2m interval of gold enrichment between 160.6m and 166.8m. Antimony values in the enriched interval range from 0.76% to 12.8%. Gold values in the enriched interval range from 1.26 g/t to 10.45 g/t.Table 1.

Historical exploration efforts culminated in a historical mineral resource estimate published by the Slovak Geological institute in 1992 (see "Historical Resource Estimates" below). Per this historical estimate, at a cut-off grade of 1.0% antimony, Trojarová hosts 2.46 million tonnes averaging 2.47% antimony and 0.635 grams per tonne gold in a mineralized zone averaging 3.32 meters wide, containing approximately 60,000 tonnes of antimony in situ.The historical estimate at Trojarová was classified using the Slovak version of the newly post-Soviet Russian classification system, which uses categories not directly comparable to modern standards as defined by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroluem ("CIM") Definition Standards for Mineral Resources & Mineral Reserves. The Slovak Geological Institute, the State agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojarová, classified the resource as "P1" in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system. P1 is most comparable in CIM's classification system to "Inferred Mineral Resources," which is defined by the CIM as that part of a Mineral Resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current, and the Company is not treating the historical estimate as current. For additional information relating to the historical estimate see below under the heading "Historical Resource Estimates".The Company announced January 8th, 2025, that SLR Consulting had been engaged to complete a modern mineral resource estimate of the Trojarová Project. The current drill program supports this work by seeking to confirm historical results and validate preliminary resource models.Preliminary modelling of historical data indicates the Trojarová deposit may display a trend of thickening and increasing antimony grades to the NW. The Company has targeted projected extensions of the deposit along this vector with 2 of the campaigns 7 drillholes with the aim to expand the current extents of the known deposit.About the ProjectDiscovered in the late 1970s, Trojarová was the focus of extensive surface and underground exploration from 1983 to 1995, with 63 core holes for a total of 14,330m, and 1.7km of underground workings completed. Efforts continued over the years as additional trenches were dug, and holes were drilled. Starting in 1990, underground development work began ultimately comprising a 300-meter-long adit connected to a 700-plus meter-long drive in the footwall of the mineralized zone with seven crosscuts into the mineralized zone for sampling purposes. These efforts culminated in a multi-volume study comprising drill logs, analyses, drill plans, maps and sections, deposit model studies, petrographic studies, metallurgical studies and more, culminating in a multi-volume compendium of reports produced by the Slovak Geological Institute published in 1992.Analytical and QA/QC ProceduresThe program was completed using PQ and HQ sized drill core. Sampled intervals were identified by logging geologists and assigned a unique sample identification number. Samples were split in two halves using a diamond bladed saw with one half remaining in the core box as a permanent record and the half placed in a plastic sample bag, both marked with a waterproof tag bearing the unique sample number which was also written on the sample bag in permanent marker. Samples were transported from the Company's secure facility by private courier to ALS Laboratories in Romania for geochemical analysis. The samples were analyzed using multi-element package ME_ICP41a and for gold using fire assay package Au-AA25. ME_ICP41a is an ore grade package involving digestion of a 0.4g sample by aqua regia with an Inductively coupled plasma - atomic emission spectrometry (ICP_AES) finish. The Au-AA25 fire assay method is an ore grade analysis using a 30g aliquot. The aliquot is mixed with flux composed of PbO and SiO2 with variable amounts of borax, soda ash and other reagents. The flux and sample are mixed, then heated at high temperature (>1,000°C) to decompose rock lattices and allow gold within the sample to be collected into a lead button. The button is placed in a porous cupel and heated again in an oxidizing environment to convert lead to lead oxide that is absorbed into the cupel, leaving the precious metals behind as a doré bead or prill. The gold content of the prill is then determined by atomic adsorption spectrometry.Both analyses are preceded by the preparation package Prep-31Y whereby the entire sample is crushed to 70% passing 2mm, a 250g split is collected by rotary splitter and pulverized to 85% passing 75 microns. Laboratory over-limits analysis methods were applied as required for both Sb and Au. A systematic QAQC protocol was employed that includes systematic insertion in the sample stream of certified reference materials and blank samples at a frequency of 1 in 10, plus analysis of duplicate pulp splits at a frequency of 1 in 30.Qualified PersonThe technical contents of this release were reviewed and approved by David Murray, P.Geo, VP-Exploration for Military Metals and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.For more information about Military Metals Corp. and its critical minerals initiatives, please visit: https://www.militarymetalscorp.com.LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/company/military-metals/X: https://x.com/militarymetalsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564717587797About Military Metals Corp.The Company is a British Columbia-based mineral exploration company that is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties with a focus on antimony.ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD of DIRECTORSFor more information, please contact:Scott EldridgeCEO and Directorscott@militarymetalscorp.com or info@militarymetalscorp.comFor enquiries, please call 604-537-7556Historical Resource EstimatesThis news release includes disclosure of a historical resource estimate. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as current mineral resources or mineral reserves. The Company does not treat the historical estimate as current.The historical estimate related to the Trojarová Property was taken from a compendium produced by the Slovak Geological Survey, completed in March 1992 based on exploration work undertaking in the 1980s and 1990s. It is entitled (English translation): "FINAL JOB REPORT, PEZINOK-TROJAROVA, Geological Survey State Enterprise", report compendium number 78406 (Michel et al, 1992).The Slovak Geological Institute, the state agency that carried out all exploration and underground development work at Trojarová, classified the historical resources as "P1" and "C2" in the Slovak version of the Russian classification system, respectively. These are closest within the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy & Petroleum's ("CIM") classification system to "inferred mineral resources," which is defined by the CIM as that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of limited geological evidence gathered through appropriate sampling techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes.The historical work carried out appears comprehensive, detailed and at a professional standard. The Company considers this historical data to be relevant as the Company will use these data as a guide to plan future exploration programs.

香港, 2026年1月7日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 在寵物消費從"可選"走向"必選"、行業增速放緩的2025年,市場正加速洗牌。資本不再為流量故事買單,而是聚焦可持續盈利模型與真實技術壁壘。在此背景下,作為中國市值最高的寵物上市公司,乖寶寵物旗下自主品牌麥富迪,市占率不僅位列國產品牌第一,更獲國際權威機構歐睿諮詢(Euromonitor)認證為"中國寵物食品第一品牌"*,麥富迪領先優勢已從早期的管道與行銷驅動,全面升級為由科研協同網路、數據資產與全球供應鏈共同構築的系統性競爭壁壘。截至2025年10月31日,乖寶寵物前三季度實現營收47.37億元,同比增長29.03%;歸母淨利潤5.13億元,同比增長9.05%。儘管單季度因戰略性投入導致費用階段性上升,但高端產品線持續放量,帶動整體毛利率穩定在50%以上,這印證了一個關鍵事實:"第一品牌"已從行銷概念,轉化為可量化的財務溢價。麥富迪並未將"第一"視為終點,而是將其轉化為持續投入高確定性領域的資本優勢。其核心策略清晰:用頭部地位反哺長期能力建設,再以能力固化領先格局。一、第一品牌的"特權":把科研合作做成可積累的資產市場常將麥富迪的成功歸因於管道或行銷,但乖寶的財報揭示了更深層邏輯:其領先優勢已從單一維度升級為"科研協同網路+數據資產+全球供應鏈"的系統性壁壘。作為行業龍頭,麥富迪擁有中小品牌難以企及的資源動員能力。以WarmData犬貓天性研究大數據中心為樞紐,與江南大學(軟科食品科學全球第一)、中國農業大學、南京農業大學、華大基因等頂尖機構的合作,共建長期研究平臺。例如,"BARF霸弗叢林食譜"所採用的氣爆營養釋放技術,正是基於WarmData中對獵物型飲食消化效率的洞察,利用達索系統完成工藝驗證後再量產。這種"數據驅動—驗證—產品落地"閉環,使科研投入直接轉化為品類定義權與用戶信任。對投資者而言,這類合作的價值不在於研發費用多少,而在於能否形成排他性技術窗口與品類定義權,這正是第一品牌獨有的"科研議價權"。同樣,其與挪威阿克(Aker BioMarine) 的戰略合作,也遠超普通採購關係。麥富迪基於自身市場洞察與WarmDa ta犬貓天性研究大數據,整合阿克在海洋活性營養領域的科研優勢,聯合開發專屬寵物營養解決方案。這種"需求定義+聯合開發"模式,確保核心原料的獨家性與成本可控性,有效抵禦同質化競爭。二、全管道協同:將科研資產轉化為可感知的信任在資訊超載的時代,科研成果若無法被用戶理解與驗證,便只是內部文檔。麥富迪的高明之處,在於將全管道網路轉化為可感知的信任介面:線上下門店,消費者可通過原料溯源、WarmData實驗對比圖和專業導購解讀,直觀瞭解產品背後的科學依據;線上上,品牌通過獸醫臨床實證、研發團隊探訪及真實飼喂數據可視化內容,將實驗室語言轉化為有證據、有場景的養護敘事。這種貫穿購前、購中、購後的透明溝通,讓用戶感受到:麥富迪的每一項技術,都不是孤立的參數,而是源於對犬貓真實需求的持續觀察與回應,這背後是一群認真對待毛孩子的人,而非一套精心包裝的行銷話術。更難得的是,麥富迪十年堅持開放工廠,打造"廠開玩"工廠開放日,累計邀請超萬名用戶實地見證生產全流程與品牌研發理念。這種"線上種草—線下體驗—實地驗證"的閉環,讓科研從後臺走向前臺,顯著提升用戶信任度。三、第一品牌的正向飛輪:地位 - 投入 - 壁壘 - 溢價麥富迪的路徑清晰呈現了一個資本友好的增長模型:市場第一 → 獲得定價權與利潤空間 → 反哺高確定性投入(科研/供應鏈/透明化) → 構建系統壁壘 → 鞏固第一地位。2025年,麥富迪高端產品線霸弗2025雙十一期間同比增長79%,登頂天貓貓主糧熱賣榜TOP1,奶弗同比增長384%。這說明:消費者願意為"可驗證的科學"和"看得見的信任"支付溢價,而這,正是"中國寵物食品第一品牌"最堅實的護城河。結語:第一,是一種可持續的商業模式在行業從流量競爭轉向價值競爭的拐點,麥富迪證明:真正的領導力,不在於一時銷量高低,而在於能否將"第一"的勢能,轉化為自我強化的系統能力。WarmData、江南大學、阿克等要素,本質上都是這一能力的組成部分,它們不是成本,而是鞏固第一地位的戰略資產。對資本市場而言,麥富迪的價值不僅在於當前領先的市占率與淨利潤增長率,更在於其已跑通一個從規模領先到價值領先的高質量增長飛輪。在這個飛輪中,"第一品牌"不再是標籤,而是可持續的商業模式本身。*來源:歐睿資訊諮詢(上海)有限公司按截至2024年12月各寵物食品品牌在中國大陸的產品線豐富度、寵物食品相關專利數量、自有工廠數量、工廠獲得國際/國內認證數及2024年國內出廠銷售額綜合判斷得出。寵物食品指專為寵物(貓、狗等)設計的主糧和零食。於2025年8月完成調研。 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

Radisson Announces Additional High-Grade Drill Results and Further Extends New Mineralization Beneath the Historic O’Brien Gold Mine

Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Jan 6, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Radisson Mining Resources Inc. (TSXV: RDS) (OTCQX: RMRDF) ("Radisson" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from six new drill holes completed at its 100%-owned O'Brien Gold Project ("O'Brien" or the "Project") located in the Abitibi region of Québec. The six holes are the latest completed as part of the Company's ongoing 140,000-metre step-out drill program designed to test the overall scope of gold mineralization at the Project (see Radisson news release dated October 16, 2025). Two of the holes represent the twelfth and thirteenth directional wedges completed from pilot hole OB-24-337 and serve to expand the broad area of new high-grade mineralization being delineated across multiple veins beneath the historic O'Brien Gold Mine. All six of the holes released today intersected gold mineralization, and five of the holes returned intercepts with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's existing mineral resources, continuing the very high success rate of the current drill program. Highlights include:OB-25-337W13 intersected 90.60 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold ("Au") over 1.0 metre within a mineralized interval averaging 30.59 g/t Au over 3.0 metres and 9.14 g/t Au over 2.7 metres, including 16.35 g/t Au over 1.4 metres;OB-25-337W12 intersected 25.10 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 14.20 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 11.40 g/t Au over 1.3 metres;OB-25-322W2 intersected 3.11 g/t Au over 8.0 metres including 5.93 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 3.62 g/t Au over 4.0 metres including 6.33 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;OB-25-322W1 intersected 4.02 g/t Au over 4.5 metres, including 8.29 g/t Au over 1.5 metres;Matt Manson, President and CEO: "Today we are releasing six new drill holes from our ongoing deep step-out drill program at O'Brien. These continue to illustrate the extension of the Project's system of gold mineralization below the historic O'Brien mine and the current mineral resources. Of particular note are the two new wedges completed from pilot hole OB-24-337 located beneath the former mine's final stope. These are the twelfth and thirteenth such wedges completed. Once again, we are seeing multiple high-grade intercepts of quartz-sulphide veins within broader alteration envelopes. This represents a system of gold mineralization that we have modelled as up to six veins delineated over a 250-metre (east-west) by 500-metre (vertical) area that remains open. With this step-out drill program we are steadily pushing the limits of known mineralization at O'Brien outwards and downwards. Overall, we have now completed 74 drill holes in the 140,000 metres program, 61 of which have intersected mineralization with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's current mineral resources, an 82% success rate. As we start 2026, we will be operating seven drill rigs at site and ramping up to our eighth rig presently. Twelve additional step-out drill holes, including the final OB-24-337 wedges, have been completed and are awaiting assays."Figure 1: Longitudinal Vertical Section and Plan View of Gold Vein Mineralization and Mineral Resources at the O'Brien Gold Project, with Today's Drill Holes IllustratedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/279548_fc1f5b478496fb3e_001full.jpgTable 1: Assay Results from Select Drill HolesDDHZone  From (m)  To (m) Core Length (m)Au g/t - UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W1Trend #1    1,226.0   1,227.51.503.88 V3-S     1,359.5   1,364.04.504.02 S1p Including   1,362.5   1,364.01.508.29 S1p OB-25-322W2Trend #1    1,401.0   1,402.01.002.82 POR-S     1,409.0   1,410.51.503.61 S1p     1,421.0   1,429.08.003.11 S1p Including   1,424.5   1,426.01.505.93 S1p     1,434.5   1,438.54.003.62 S1p Including   1,435.5   1,437.01.506.33 S1p     1,465.0   1,466.51.503.67 POR-N OB-25-337W12O'Brien MineEast    1,274.5   1,276.01.5025.10 V3-S     1,293.5   1,295.01.503.50 POR-S     1,306.5   1,308.01.5014.20 POR-S     1,318.7   1,320.01.3011.40 V3-CEN OB-25-337W13O'Brien MineEast       862.0      865.03.0030.59 PON-S3 Including      864.0      865.01.0090.60 PON-S3     1,211.5   1,214.22.709.14 POR-S Including   1,212.8   1,214.21.4016.35 POR-S OB-25-371W7Trend #2    1,143.2   1,144.71.503.94 S1p     1,152.5   1,154.01.504.61 POR-N     1,169.9   1,171.41.503.51 V3-N Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts:The O'Brien Gold Project Mineral Resource Estimate effective May 6, 2025 ("MRE") utilizes a 2.20 g/t Au bottom cut-off, a US$2,000 gold price, a minimum mining width of 1.2 metres, and a 40 g/t Au upper cap on composites. Intercepts presented in Table 1 are calculated with a 3.00 g/t Au bottom cut-off. True widths, based on depth of intercept and drill hole inclination, are estimated to be 30-80% of core length. Table 2 presents additional drill intercepts calculated with a 1.00 g/t bottom cut-off over a minimum 1.0 metre core length so as to illustrate the frequency and continuity of mineralized intervals within which high-grade gold veins at O'Brien are developed.

Gold, along with pyrite and arsenopyrite, is typically associated with shearing and a pervasive biotite alteration, and developed within multiple Piché Group lithologies and, occasionally, the hanging-wall Pontiac and footwall Cadillac meta-sedimentary rocks.As mapped at the historic O'Brien mine, and now replicated in the modern drilling, individual veins are generally narrow, ranging from several centimetres up to several metres in thickness. Multiple veins occur sub-parallel to each other, as well as sub-parallel to the Piché lithologies and the LLCB. Individual veins have well-established lateral continuity, with near-vertical, high-grade shoots developed over significant lengths. Based on the historic data available, it is clear that the former mine was "high-graded", with mining focussed on a main central stope and parallel veins identified but left undeveloped.The historic O'Brien mine produced over half a million ounces of gold from such veins and shoots at an average grade exceeding 15 g/t Au and over a vertical extent of at least 1,000 metres. Modern exploration has focussed on delineating well developed vein mineralization to the east of the historic mine, with additional high-grade shoots becoming evident in the exploration data over what has been described as a series of repeating trends ("Trend #s 0 to 5").Figure 2: Deep Step-Out Drill Holes Completed and/or Published by the Company since December 2024To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/279548_fc1f5b478496fb3e_003full.jpgStep-Out Drilling at O'BrienSince the end of 2024, Radisson has been pursuing a program of broad step-outs beneath the historic O'Brien Gold mine and the existing mineral resources designed to test the extent of mineralization at the Project. This drilling is accomplished with pilot holes followed by wedges and directional drilling to maximize drill efficiency. On October 16, 2025, Radisson announced the expansion of the step-out drill program to 140,000 metres employing an eventual eight drill rigs.The origin of the step-out drill program was the deep pilot hole OB-24-337, which was the first exploration drill hole located below the former mine workings since mining ended in 1957. This hole intersected 31.24 g/t Au over 8.0 metres, including 242.0 g/t Au over 1.0 metre at approximately 1,500 metres vertical depth (see Radisson news release dated December 16, 2024). With today's results, assay results from a total of thirteen wedges from OB-24-337 have now been reported and up to six gold-bearing veins have been delineated over an area of approximately 250 metres (east-west) by 500 metres (vertical). The thirteenth wedge, released today, intersected 9.14 g/t Au over 2.7 metres including 16.35 g/t Au over 1.4 metres within Piché rocks just 40 metres below the final historic mining stope (Figures 1 and 3). The final two wedges, the fourteenth and fifteenth, have been completed and assay results are expected shortly. Future drilling in this area will utilize new pilot holes and wedge extensions to test the full scope of mineralization down to 2 kilometres depth.Figure 3: Vertical Cross Section through the Historic O'Brien Mine with Deep Pilot Hole OB-24-337 and Wedges OB-25-337W1 to W13To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/10977/279548_fc1f5b478496fb3e_004full.jpgTable 2: Detailed Assay Results (see "Notes on Calculation of Drill Intercepts")DDHZone  From (m)  To (m) Core Length (m)Au g/t - UncutHost LithologyOB-25-322W1Trend #1    1,226.0   1,227.51.503.88V3-S    1,285.5   1,287.01.501.05V3-S    1,315.2   1,322.57.301.14POR-S    1,331.5   1,337.56.001.42POR-S    1,349.0   1,353.54.501.77S1p    1,359.5   1,364.04.504.02S1pIncluding   1,362.5   1,364.01.508.29S1p    1,371.5   1,373.01.501.80S1p    1,390.0   1,391.01.002.22V3-NOB-25-322W2Trend #1    1,401.0   1,402.01.002.82POR-S    1,409.0   1,410.51.503.61S1p    1,415.0   1,416.51.502.37S1p    1,421.0   1,429.08.003.11S1pIncluding   1,424.5   1,426.01.505.93S1p    1,434.5   1,438.54.003.62S1pIncluding   1,435.5   1,437.01.506.33S1p    1,450.5   1,451.61.102.36S1p    1,465.0   1,468.03.002.93POR-N/V3-N    1,465.0   1,466.51.503.67POR-NOB-25-337W12O'Brien MineEast    1,262.5   1,264.01.501.78 V3-S     1,267.0   1,268.51.501.39 V3-S     1,274.5   1,276.01.5025.10 V3-S     1,281.8   1,283.31.501.17 V3-S     1,293.5   1,299.05.501.53 POR-S Including   1,293.5   1,295.01.503.50 POR-S     1,306.5   1,308.01.5014.20 POR-S     1,313.2   1,317.74.501.01 V3-CEN     1,318.7   1,320.01.3011.40 V3-CEN     1,378.5   1,379.91.401.04 POR-N     1,388.5   1,391.53.001.34 V3-N OB-25-337W13O'Brien MineEast       862.0      865.03.0030.59PON-S3Including      864.0      865.01.0090.60PON-S3    1,211.5   1,214.22.709.14POR-SIncluding   1,212.8   1,214.21.4016.35POR-S    1,263.1   1,265.52.401.25V3-N    1,279.0   1,280.51.501.03V3-NOB-25-371W7Trend #2    1,092.5   1,095.53.001.25V3-S    1,120.0   1,121.51.501.60V3-S    1,141.8   1,147.05.202.36V3-CEN/S1pIncluding   1,143.2   1,144.71.503.94S1p    1,152.5   1,154.01.504.61POR-N    1,168.4   1,171.43.002.90V3-NIncluding   1,169.9   1,171.41.503.51V3-NOB-25-377O'Brien MineWest       767.0      768.01.001.46PON-S3       791.0      792.01.001.08PON-S3    1,151.5   1,153.01.501.71V3-S    1,191.0   1,192.11.101.63V3-CEN    1,230.9   1,232.41.501.01S1p    1,248.8   1,250.11.301.58S1p    1,262.2   1,263.31.101.52POR-N    1,310.0   1,311.01.001.46V3-N Table 3: Drill Hole Collar Information for Holes contained in this News ReleaseDDHZoneEastingNorthingAzimuthDipHole Length (m)OB-25-322W1Trend #169419953450981-85.0627.0OB-25-322W2Trend #169419953450981-85.0687.0OB-25-337W12O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5651.5OB-25-337W13O'Brien Mine East6937005345070346-79.5710.0OB-25-371W7Trend #26945315345147334-82.0347.0OB-25-377O'Brien Mine West6932725345054345-79.51337.0 Notes:Hole lengths for wedges represent meterage from point of wedge. Drill hole OB-24-337 was completed in 2024 while its wedge branches were drilled in 2025.Today's results also include the first and second wedges completed from pilot drill hole OB-24-322, which intersected high-grade mineralization on the downwards extension of Trend #1 at 1,280 metres and 1,360 metres vertical depth, respectively. These two wedges appear to have intersected the same mineralized zone over a vertical separation of 80 metres, returning similar intercepts of 4.02 g/t Au over 4.5 metres, including 8.29 g/t Au over 1.5 metres (OB-25-322W1) and 3.11 g/t Au over 8.0 metres including 5.93 g/t Au over 1.5 metres and 3.62 g/t Au over 4.0 metres including 6.33 g/t Au over 1.5 metres (OB-25-322W2). Additional drill wedges from OB-24-322 have been completed and assays are pending.Drill hole OB-25-371W7 is the seventh wedge from a pilot hole centered on the deep extension of Trend #2. It returned three separate intercepts of gold mineralization that were short, but with grades and thicknesses consistent with the Project's mineral resources, in an untested area on the western side of Trend #2 towards the deep extension of Trend #1 (Figure 1). The Company considers the apparent "gap" between the deep extensions of these two mineralizing trends to be a function of drill coverage rather than mineralization (Figure 2). This area offers a significant opportunity to delineate future mineral resources at relatively shallow depths and within the scope of the mine design contained in the Project's 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment. Further drill testing here will be an important part of the upcoming 2026 work program. The sixth drill hole release today, OB-25-377, was located in a gap area between the western and eastern portions of the former mine and intersected three narrow zones of minor mineralization.QA/QCAll drill cores in this campaign are NQ in size. Assays were completed on sawn half-cores, with the second half kept for future reference. The samples were analyzed using standard fire assay procedures with Atomic Absorption (AA) finish at ALS Laboratory Ltd, in Val-d'Or, Quebec. Samples yielding a grade higher than 10 g/t Au were analyzed a second time by fire assay with gravimetric finish at the same laboratory. Mineralized zones containing visible gold were analyzed with metallic sieve procedure. Standard reference materials, blank samples and duplicates were inserted prior to shipment for quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) program.QP DisclosureDisclosure of a scientific or technical nature in this news release was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Richard Nieminen, P.Geo, (QC), a geological consultant for Radisson and a Qualified Person for purposes of NI 43-101.
