Key assumptions and estimated financial results are provided in Figure 1.First supply of battery grade lithium carbonate, fully finished onsite, is targeted for 2029. The Project has a 20-year mine life with initial capital requirement of approximately $568 million with operating cost of $3,837 per tonne, a base-case $1,373 million pre-tax NPV and 4.44 years payback. Anson has a definitive offtake agreement with Korea's LG Energy Solution for 40% of the annual production, see ASX announcement 24 September 2025.Benchmark Lithium Forecast Report Q1 2026 Base Case and Upside Case with representative forecast prices for the years 2029 and 2040. The full prices series is in Figure 1. Benchmark forecast price for 2040, the last year forecast, is assumed to remain unchanged through to 2048 2. Post-tax cash flows incorporate U.S. Federal and Utah State taxes and the applicable SITLA royalty, calculated on a variable sliding scale linked to realised lithium prices. The financial model and post-tax metrics exclude the potential benefit of Inflation Reduction Act production tax credits, grants and any other federal or state incentives currently available to critical minerals projects in the United States.The study builds on prior engineering studies and provides updated CAPEX and OPEX estimates, process design, and development pathways for a phase I 10,000tpa lithium carbonate (LCE) operation based on Direct Lithium Extraction ("DLE") technology.Market Conditions ForecastThe technical and economic assessment (+/- 50%) was calculated utilizing the base and upside cases for lithium carbonate price from Benchmark Minerals Lithium Forecast Q1 2026 as shown in Figure 1. Benchmark's forecast the lithium prices up to year 2040, this study assumes that forecast price for 2040 remains static through to 2048.Capital Expenditure EstimateThe capital cost estimate developed as part of the study reflects a comprehensive assessment of the core processing and supporting infrastructure required for the Project. This includes brine pretreatment facilities, the process plant incorporating DLE, purification and lithium carbonate refining circuits, as well as utilities and associated infrastructure. Site infrastructure such as buildings, stormwater management systems and electrical installations have been incorporated, together with offsite components including well pads, brine pipelines, utility interconnections, raw water supply and access roads. The estimate also includes construction indirect costs and a contingency allowance of 25%, appropriate for a conceptual level assessment, see Table 2.Consistent with a Scoping Study, certain elements have been excluded or only partially included at this stage. These include full wellfield development costs, financing costs including interest during construction, and broader corporate costs and insurance. In addition, allowances for commissioning, start-up and training, downstream logistics beyond the project boundary, and applicable taxes and royalties have not been fully incorporated. Owner's costs are excluded, which includes preliminary allowances for process media and resin, certain engineering components, and enabling infrastructure such as a natural gas connection and power system upgrades required to support the Project.Operating Cost EstimateOperating cost estimates have been developed based on the conceptual process design and an initial mass balance, incorporating assumptions for reagent consumption, energy and water usage, and fixed costs. These estimates are preliminary in nature and will be refined as the process design advances and vendor quotations are obtained, which may result in variations to the current cost profile. A break down of the estimated operating cost from the Scoping Study is provided in Figure 2.Peer ComparisonOPEX and CAPEX The Green River Lithium Project C1 Opex is positioned in the first quartile of the cost curve making it the most cost competitive project in North America. Capex per tonne of installed capacity is lower than any comparable project in North America. The Scoping Study confirms that the Green River Lithium Project is positioned within the lowest cost quartile globally, underpinned by a combination of structural and technical advantages. These include access to established infrastructure, the high quality of the underlying brine resource, lower estraction cost due to the pressure that pushes the brine towards surface and an optimised processing approach. In addition, the integration of Anson's proprietary iron removal technology provides a further competitive edge, enhancing overall process efficiency and reducing operating costs, see Figures 3, 4 & 5.Sensitivity AnalysisA sensitivity analysis was undertaken to assess the impact of key financial and operating variables on the Project's Base Case pre-tax NPV. The analysis tested changes of +/-20% to capital expenditure, operating expenditure and lithium carbonate price, see Figure 6. The results demonstrate that the Project is most sensitive to lithium carbonate pricing, reflecting the strong leverage of project returns to realised product prices. A +/-20% movement in lithium carbonate price results in an approximate +/-US$460 million movement in pre-tax NPV, representing approximately 34% variance from the Base Case pre-tax NPV. The Project is comparatively less sensitive to capital and operating costs. A +/-20% movement in either capital expenditure or operating expenditure results in an approximate +/-US$110 million movement in pretax NPV, representing approximately 8% variance from the Base Case. The sensitivity analysis indicates that while disciplined capital and operating cost control remain important, the Project's financial outcomes are principally driven by lithium carbonate pricing. This is consistent with the strong operating margin implied by the Project's low estimated C1 operating cost of US$3,837/t LCE and Base Case pre-tax NPV of US$1,373 million.Scoping Study OverviewThe PFS was undertaken to establish a clear and disciplined framework for the development of the Green River Lithium Project. The study focused on the preparation of AACE Class 5 capital and operating cost estimates, alongside optimisation of the process design and overall flowsheet configuration. In parallel, it identified the key cost drivers and development risks associated with the Project, providing a robust technical and economic foundation to support investment decision-making and progression toward a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). The outcomes of the study confirm that the Green River Project is underpinned by several inherent advantages. These include access to established infrastructure, such as power, gas and transport networks, and a high-quality lithium brine resource. The Project design incorporates a modular Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) processing configuration, allowing for scalability and operational flexibility. Burns & McDonnell's PFS included site and plot plan, provisional mass balance and capital costs estimates and utilities, chemicals, media and fixed costs for Anson to estimate Opex. ISBL costs are based on the preliminary engineering and cost information provided by the licensors (+/-30% accuracy). The resources estimate was prepared by Apex. Lithium pricing data is sourced from Benchmark Minerals. Financial analysis including NPV and scenario analysis was completed by the CompanyManagement CommentaryBruce Richardson, CEO of Anson Resources, commented: "The completion of the Scoping Study marks a significant milestone for the Green River Lithium Project. The study confirms our strategy of developing a low-cost lithium operation with a capital profile that compares favourably with global peers. This supports the adage "Grade is King but in brine Purity is Supreme!" As the lithium market evolves, investment decisions are increasingly driven by returns rather than sentiment. The Green River Lithium Project is strongly positioned in this environment, supported by competitive economics, advanced engineering, and a clear pathway to development. With the Definitive Feasibility Study now underway, we are progressing toward Final Investment Decision and remain focused on delivering a world-class lithium project in Utah."See Full Release HereFor further information please contact:Bruce RichardsonExecutive Chairman and CEOWill MazeHead of Investor RelationsE: Info@AnsonResources.com E: Investors@AnsonResources.comPh: +61 7 3132 7990 Ph: +61 7 3132 7990www.AnsonResources.comSOURCE: Anson Resources Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, May 19, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - As IPO activity among robotics industry chain companies accelerates, Shoucheng Holdings (697.HK)’s earlier investment layout around embodied intelligence and the robotics sector is entering a new stage of capital-market pricing and industrial value validation. On May 18, information from the Shanghai Stock Exchange showed that Unitree Robotics’ application for an initial public offering has entered the review process. Meanwhile, operating data disclosed in the STAR Market IPO materials of Hangzhou Yunshenchu Technology Co., Ltd. (DEEP Robotics) further signaled an acceleration in the commercialization of the robotics industry.According to the prospectus, DEEP Robotics recorded revenue of RMB340 million in 2025, representing significant growth from RMB103 million in 2024. Its cumulative research and development investment over the past three years accounted for 31.52% of cumulative revenue over the same period. In 2025, net profit attributable to shareholders of the parent company reached RMB28.684 million, compared with a net loss of RMB13.30 million in 2024, marking a return to profitability. These figures indicate that some robotics companies are gradually moving from technology research and development and use-case exploration toward revenue expansion and profit improvement.For Shoucheng Holdings, the IPO progress of leading robotics companies such as Unitree Robotics and DEEP Robotics means that its earlier industrial investments in embodied intelligence and robotics are moving from primary-market deployment into the stage of capital-market pricing and value validation. Public information shows that, through the industrial funds it manages, Shoucheng Holdings has invested more than RMB2 billion cumulatively across the broader robotics industry chain, covering more than 20 companies, including Unitree Robotics, Noetix Robotics, Galbot, DEEP Robotics, Booster Robotics and Galaxea. As related companies file for listing or enter the review process, revenue scale, R&D intensity, profit inflection points and industrialization capabilities are beginning to be quantified, making the valuation benchmarks for Shoucheng Holdings’ relevant assets clearer.Overall, the acceptance of Unitree Robotics’ IPO application and the improvement in DEEP Robotics’ operating data provide clearer phased validation for Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics industry investments. As investee companies successively enter the stages of capital-market review and operating delivery, the value of Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics industry chain layout is expected to become more apparent and generate sustained incremental contributions in investment returns, cross-scenario synergies and industrial operation capabilities.

HONG KONG, May 19, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Shoucheng Holdings (697.HK)'s first-quarter operating data presented a relatively clear business picture: its core operating base remained resilient, shareholder returns continued to increase, and robotics investment and real-world deployment advanced in parallel. The company's core operating performance improved, while the digital and intelligent upgrade of its parking business, the development of its robotics ecosystem, and the realization of investment gains are becoming key priorities for the year.Based on first-quarter data, Shoucheng Holdings recorded revenue of approximately HKD327 million in the first quarter of 2026, with profit attributable to shareholders of approximately HKD79 million, representing year-on-year growth of about 18%. This indicates that the company's core operating performance continued to improve.Robotics investment is one of the important sources of future profit flexibility for Shoucheng Holdings. The company's investment portfolio already covers a number of leading companies, including Unitree Robotics, DEEP Robotics, Galbot, TowardPi Medical and others. As some portfolio companies gradually move toward listing, Shoucheng Holdings' robotics investment portfolio is also transitioning from industrial deployment to earnings realization. Kang Yu, the company secretary of Shoucheng Holdings, said that if consolidated fund investment projects complete a new round of financing in the second half of the year, related fair value changes or investment gains are expected to provide incremental contribution to the bottom line.In addition to investment, Shoucheng Holdings is also advancing the development of commercialization scenarios for robotics. Taozhu New Creation Bureau has opened six stores, covering core business districts and transportation hubs in Beijing, as its offline retail network takes shape at an accelerated pace. Online, the Wall Breaker Project has become the top-ranked humanoid robot livestreaming channel across major platforms, with cumulative views exceeding 50 million and two appearances on Douyin's trending list. Market participants noted that these initiatives show the company's attempt to build a consumer-facing gateway for product display, sales, immersive experience and content reach. For the robotics industry, after technological breakthroughs, real-world scenarios, sales channels and user feedback will become important support for commercialization.The parking business remains the operating foundation of Shoucheng Holdings. In recent years, the company has continued to promote growth in its parking business and improve asset efficiency through digital and intelligent operations. With the development of new forms of transportation such as Robotaxi services, unmanned delivery vehicles and autonomous-driving shuttles, the functional boundaries of parking scenarios are also expanding, extending from traditional parking fees to integrated functions such as EV charging, fleet dispatching, maintenance and servicing, parking and data connectivity.On this basis, Shoucheng Holdings is accelerating its Robotaxi strategic deployment and reconstructing traditional parking facilities into operational hubs for autonomous vehicles. Under this model, parking facilities are no longer merely vehicle storage spaces, but also take on infrastructure functions such as intelligent dispatching, automatic charging, outsourced maintenance services and data interaction. As autonomous-driving operation scenarios continue to expand, parking assets are expected to extend from traditional operating scenarios to infrastructure nodes for intelligent transportation.In terms of shareholder returns, the board of Shoucheng Holdings has decided to distribute a special dividend of approximately HKD470 million. Based on last year's dividend of approximately HKD310 million and the company's market capitalization of HKD13.52 billion at the close on May 15, the annual dividend yield is estimated at approximately 5.77%. Share buybacks are also an important measure for the company to strengthen shareholder returns. Since the beginning of 2026, Shoucheng Holdings has repurchased approximately HKD262 million worth of shares, with buybacks conducted on almost every trading day. The special dividend highlights the company's cash flow capability and willingness to distribute dividends, while share repurchases reflect its view of the current valuation level. Together, the two measures have helped the company form a clearer shareholder return framework.Overall, Shoucheng Holdings is advancing its business layout around three main lines: its operating foundation, shareholder returns and industrial investment. Parking assets and asset management operations provide a cash flow base; dividends and buybacks enhance capital returns; and robotics investment, Taozhu New Creation Bureau and Robotaxi-related deployment open up new room for growth. As portfolio companies advance their IPO processes, offline scenarios continue to expand and the digital and intelligent upgrade of the parking business progresses, the company's business structure is expected to be further optimized, while asset operation efficiency and industrial synergy capabilities should continue to improve.

賓夕法尼亞州費城, 2026年5月18日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 數據變現、憑證認證、數位互動及實物資產（“RWA”）代幣化技術供應商 Datavault AI Inc.（“Datavault AI”或“本公司”）（納斯達克代碼：DVLT）今日宣布，兩屆世界重量級拳王泰森·富里（Tyson Fury）已簽約擔任 Datavault AI 的國際代言人，此項合作由 P11 的尼克·亨特（Nick Hunter）促成。富里在《富比士》2025年全球收入最高的運動員榜單中排名第3，估計收入達1.46億美元（《富比士》2025年），他將為Datavault AI的使命——賦能個人和組織將其數據及數位資產變現——帶來全球巨星的影響力，以及對擁有、保護和利用個人名稱所代表價值的獨特個人見解。這位被全球譽為「吉普賽之王」的拳王，其任命正值 Datavault AI 即將推出「Sports Illustrated Exchange」之際。此解決方案旨在解決職業及大學體育界運動員、網紅與權利人面臨的姓名、形象與肖像（NIL）變現挑戰。「我們對泰森·富里懷抱最崇高的敬意，他不僅是史上最偉大的重量級拳王之一，更是一位堅韌不拔的戰士，其力量與真摯特質使他成為我們迎接未來挑戰的完美夥伴。提升全球對姓名、形象與肖像（NIL）變現的認知，同時在即將到來的技術飛躍面前正視網路安全的重要性，是當今企業面臨的最艱鉅挑戰。泰森·富里具備足夠的實力，能與 Datavault AI 的「量子安全數據變現」平台並肩直面這些挑戰，而他的加入將加速提升大眾對我們 AI 驅動解決方案的認知，其中包括「資訊數據交換®」（IDE）——該平台能將現實世界資產安全地綁定至不可篡改的元數據，以實現負責任的變現。Datavault AI 執行長納撒尼爾·T·布拉德利（Nathaniel T. Bradley）表示：「《運動畫刊》交易所將徹底改變運動員利用其姓名、形象與肖像權（NIL）獲利的方式，而邀請富里擔任我們的國際代言人，更彰顯了這項計畫的規模與正當性。」富里以其超凡脫俗的個性與跨界魅力，在拳擊場外也深深吸引著觀眾。他表示：「我的職業生涯中，無論在擂台內外，都一直在為屬於自己的東西而戰。Datavault AI 正為運動員和創作者提供工具，讓他們能在數位時代真正擁有並從自己的姓名、形象、肖像及數據中獲利。我很榮幸能加入這個團隊，並協助將《運動畫刊》交易平台推向世界。這將會是一項龐大的計畫，」前世界統一、拳擊雜誌及直系重量級冠軍泰森·弗瑞說道。關於泰森·富里泰森·富里是兩屆世界重量級拳王，也是同世代中榮譽最多的拳手之一，職業生涯共出戰37場，戰績為34勝（其中24場以擊倒獲勝）、2負、1和。他兩度榮膺《拳擊》雜誌「年度拳手」——2015年因爆冷擊敗長期衛冕冠軍弗拉基米爾·克里琴科而獲此殊榮，2020年則在與迪昂泰·懷爾德的二番戰中以壓倒性優勢獲勝後再度獲獎。富里是自穆罕默德·阿里以來，唯一兩度榮獲《拳擊》雜誌該頭銜的重量級拳手，與弗洛伊德·帕特森及阿里並列為史上僅有的三位達成此成就的拳手。他與懷爾德於2021年進行的三番戰，被《拳擊》雜誌評選為「年度最佳比賽」。根據《富比士》2025年預估收入榜，富里以1.46億美元的收入位列全球收入最高的運動員第三名，被公認為全球最具商業影響力的運動員之一，同時也是英國收入最高的個人運動員。他在各大社交媒體平台累積擁有超過1,100萬名追蹤者——Instagram 690萬、X 220萬、Facebook 220萬——其影響力遍及英國、歐洲大陸、美國及全球各地的體育、娛樂與生活風格受眾。身高6呎9吋、臂展達85吋的弗瑞，不僅因拳台上的精湛技術聞名於世，其場外的人生故事同樣震撼人心——他歷經多年公開對抗精神健康挑戰（包括雙相情感障礙），最終成功重返拳壇，使他成為體育界最廣為人知的心理健康倡導者之一。這種真實性，加上他所擁有的影響力，使他與這家秉持「個人應擁有並掌控自身價值」原則的公司，可謂天作之合。在拳擊場外，弗瑞主演了 Netflix 影集《與弗瑞一家同住》（At Home with the Furys）。第二季於2026年4月12日首播——時間點恰與弗瑞前一晚在Netflix直播中對陣阿爾斯蘭貝克·馬赫穆多夫的復出戰相呼應——而Netflix已宣布續訂該劇第三季。隨著公司準備於2026年稍晚推出《運動畫刊交易所》，這項合作將使Datavault AI得以將其影響力擴展至體育、娛樂及Web 3.0領域。關於 Datavault AIDatavault AI™（納斯達克代碼：DVLT）在 Web 3.0 環境中，於人工智慧驅動的數據體驗、資產估值及變現領域處於領先地位。該公司的雲端平台提供全面的解決方案，其聲學科學與數據科學部門皆以協作為核心。Datavault AI 的聲學科學部門擁有 WiSA®、ADIO® 及 Sumerian® 等專利技術，以及業界首創的基礎空間與多聲道無線高解析度聲音傳輸技術，其智慧財產權涵蓋音訊時序、同步及多聲道干擾消除等領域。數據科學部門則運用 Web 3.0 及高效能運算的優勢，提供體驗式數據感知、估值與安全變現的解決方案。Datavault AI 的平台服務於多個產業，包括為體育與娛樂、活動與場館、生物科技、教育、金融科技、房地產、醫療保健、能源等領域提供高效能運算軟體授權服務。Information Data Exchange® 透過將實體世界中的物件安全地連結至不可變更的元數據，實現數位孿生以及姓名、肖像與形象的授權，從而促進具備完整性的負責任人工智慧發展。該公司的技術套件完全可自訂，提供基於人工智慧與機器學習的自動化功能、第三方整合、詳細分析與數據、行銷自動化以及廣告監測。該公司總部位於賓夕法尼亞州費城。欲進一步了解 Datavault AI，請造訪 www.dvlt.ai。前瞻性陳述本新聞稿包含《1995年私人證券訴訟改革法案》、經修訂之《1933年證券法》第27A條，以及經修訂之《1934年證券交易法》第21E條所定義之「前瞻性陳述」。前瞻性陳述包括但不限於：關於聘請泰森·富里（Tyson Fury）擔任國際發言人的聲明、計劃推出《運動畫刊》交易平台（Sports Illustrated Exchange）、預期市場對姓名、肖像及形象變現產品的反應、預期的客戶互動，以及預估的營運表現。此類陳述可透過「可能」、「將」、「預期」、「預估」、「打算」、「計劃」、「相信」、「估計」等詞彙及類似表述加以識別。前瞻性陳述係基於管理層當前的預期與假設，並受各種風險、不確定性及其他因素影響，可能導致實際結果與所表達或暗示者存在重大差異。此類因素包括但不限於：與代言人及代言協議相關的風險；本公司能否按預期時程推出並商業化「Sports Illustrated Exchange」；人工智慧運算、體育及數位授權市場的競爭狀況；影響姓名、肖像及形象（NIL）變現的監管與合規風險； 技術開發與整合風險；融資可得性；以及本公司向美國證券交易委員會提交之文件中討論的其他因素，包括本公司最新 10-K 表格年度報告及 10-Q 表格季度報告中的「風險因素」章節。謹此提醒讀者，切勿過度依賴任何前瞻性陳述，該等陳述僅反映本新聞稿發布之日的情況。本公司無義務更新任何前瞻性陳述以反映本新聞稿發布日之後的事件或情況，除非產業與市場數據在本新聞稿中，我們引用了有關市場排名及運動員收入數據的資訊與統計資料。其中部分資訊來自獨立第三方來源，包括《富比士》及《The Conversation》／西澳大學商學院。部分數據亦基於管理層的估算與計算。儘管我們認為此類資訊可靠，但我們並未對任何第三方資訊進行獨立核實。有關市場地位、排名及產業統計的數據本質上具有不精確性，且受制於我們無法控制的重大商業、經濟及競爭不確定性。媒體聯絡人：marketing@dvlt.ai 投資人聯絡人：Edward Barger投資人關係副總裁ebarger@dvlt.ai | ir@dvlt.ai 消息來源：Datavault AI Inc Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

SINGAPORE, May 18, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Want to rebuild your savings while carrying an existing debt? It can be overwhelming, but it is possible. The common belief is that one must eliminate all debt before saving again, but this could not be further from reality. Both goals can be managed together, even with monthly bills, Equated Monthly Instalments (EMIs) and everyday expenses competing for your income.A balanced approach to savings can reduce financial stress, help to stay prepared for emergencies and move steadily towards long-term stability. Some short-term options to help paying off debt include a Balance Transfer, Personal Loan or a credit line. Choosing the suitable Balance Transfer option available can help lower interest costs and make repayment more manageable.Wondering how? Read along to find out.Get a clear picture of your current financesBefore creating an aggressive savings plan or an unrealistic debt payment plan that will soon drain you, it is important to understand where your money is going. As a first step, list all your outstanding debts, including credit cards, personal loans or education loans, along with their respective interest rates and required minimum payments. While doing this, also consider your monthly income and essential expenses to understand the flexibility you have.Budget for both goalsRebuilding your savings starts with setting a well-structured budget. Many people often allocate every bit of extra money towards debt repayment, which is why they fail to rebuild their savings. Allocate specific portions to both savings and debt reduction, striking a balance that ensures you do not feel financially insecure while you work towards freedom from debt. Over time, your budget can be adjusted as debts reduce and your financial confidence grows.Start with an emergency fundAn emergency fund protects you from unexpected expenses that could push you further into debt. This fund helps cover medical emergencies, urgent travel or sudden job changes/loss, without relying on credit cards or loans. Building this fund steadily, no matter the amount, is more important than trying to save a large sum all at once.Reduce debt while protecting your savingsIf you want to stay consistent with repayments without sacrificing your savings, you must choose the right strategy, which balances interest payment, motivation and cash flow. The right approach depends on whether you want to minimise interest or maintain motivation while saving. The debt avalanche method focuses on the former, while the snowball method helps with the latter.Debt avalanche methodUnder this method, the focus is on paying off debts with the highest interest first, while continuing to make minimum payments on others. This reduces the total interest paid over time, whereby you regain control. This repayment strategy reduces the interest burden and frees up money that can be later redirected towards savings.Debt snowball methodThe snowball method focuses on clearing smaller debts first, focusing on quick wins that result in continued motivation. With each debt cleared, the available amount can be split between savings and the next payment goal.Automate savingsThe temptation to skip saving when expenses rise can be strong; hence, automating your savings is important. For instance, setting up a mandate for automatic transfer of funds to your savings account right after your salary is credited ensures consistency. This helps you maintain steady and growing savings while also staying committed to debt repayment.Cut expenses without feeling restrictedReducing expenses does not require extreme cutbacks. Identify areas where you can make small adjustments that will lead to significant savings. This includes checking for unused subscriptions, planning meals to limit dine-out expenses, and reviewing bills wherever possible. The freed-up money can later be allocated to savings or debt payments.Rebuilding your savings while paying off existing debt is a long-term game of patience, planning and consistency. Start by understanding your finances and then identifying a financial strategy that works best for you. Saving and debt repayment are not competing goals, they can work together to create a secure financial future.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte Ltd, an external marketer engaged and compensated by UOB Ltd.Contact Information:Name: Sonakshi MurzeEmail: Sonakshi.murze@iquanti.comJob Title: ManagerSOURCE: iQuanti Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

HONG KONG, May 16, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Against the backdrop of continued momentum in artificial intelligence and the robotics industry, Shoucheng Holdings (697.HK) released its first-quarter 2026 report on May 15. The report highlighted the company’s operational resilience and financial safety margin, further strengthening market expectations for a long-term revaluation of the company.In terms of core operating data, the company continued to improve its earnings quality. Excluding the impact of one-off gains, Shoucheng Holdings’ net profit attributable to shareholders rose 18% year on year in the first quarter, reflecting the steady improvement in the recurring profitability of its core businesses.Market observers believe this indicates that the company’s recent deployments in infrastructure asset management, industrial park operations, robotics, and intelligent manufacturing ecosystem investments are gradually entering a stage of return realization. Its ability to maintain stable profit growth at the operating level demonstrates a degree of counter-cyclical resilience in its business structure.As of the end of the first quarter of 2026, Shoucheng Holdings held approximately HK$7.279 billion in cash and cash equivalents, while its interest-bearing debt ratio was only 6.3%, reflecting a sound overall asset-liability structure. The company’s low leverage and high cash reserves not only strengthen its ability to withstand external market volatility, but also provide sufficient resources for continued investment in emerging industries, the expansion of its REITs ecosystem, and the advancement of its robotics industry chain layout.The company has continued to implement a high shareholder-return strategy. The board of directors declared a special dividend of HK$470 million, while the company repurchased approximately HK$175 million worth of shares during the first quarter. These actions reflect management’s strong confidence in the company’s future development and cash flow position. For Hong Kong equity investors, in a market environment that remains volatile, companies combining growth potential with stable shareholder returns are often more likely to attract medium- and long-term capital.With Shoucheng Holdings’ first-quarter results continuing to follow the three main themes of earnings recovery, financial stability, and enhanced shareholder returns, market observers believe that the company’s valuation still has room for continued revaluation as robotics commercialization, REITs asset recycling, and infrastructure operation capabilities are further unlocked.

香港, 2026年5月16日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 在人工智能與機器人產業持續活躍的背景下，首程控股（697.HK）5月15日發布的2026年一季報所釋放出的經營韌性與財務安全邊際，進一步強化了市場對於公司長期價值重估的預期。從核心經營數據來看，公司盈利質量持續改善。若剔除一次性收益影響，首程控股今年一季度歸母淨利潤同比增長18%，反映公司核心業務的經常性盈利能力正在穩步提升。市場認為，這意味著公司近年圍繞基礎設施資產管理、產業園區運營、機器人及智能製造生態投資等方向的佈局，正逐步進入回報釋放階段。能夠保持經營層面利潤穩定增長，顯示其業務結構具備一定抗周期能力。截至2026年第一季度末，首程控股貨幣資金約72.79億港元，有息負債比率僅6.3%，整體資產負債結構穩健。低槓桿、高現金儲備的財務特徵，不僅提升了公司抵禦外部市場波動的能力，同時亦為後續持續投資新產業、拓展REITs生態以及推進機器人產業鏈佈局提供了充足彈藥。公司延續高股東回報策略。董事會宣派4.7億港元特別股息，同時公司一季度累計回購股份約1.75億港元，顯示管理層對未來發展及現金流狀況具備較強信心。對港股投資者而言，在目前市場波動仍然較大的環境下，同時兼具成長性與穩定股東回報能力的公司，往往更容易獲得中長線資金關注。在首程控股一季度業績延續「盈利修復、財務穩健、股東回報提升」三條主線的情況下，市場認為，隨著未來機器人產業商業化、REITs資產循環以及基礎設施運營能力進一步釋放，公司估值仍有望迎來持續重估。  Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

NESHER, ISRAEL, May 16, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Tabor Electronics today announced the commercial release of its Anti-Drone Test and Evaluation (T&E) solution, introducing a software-defined approach to validating counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS). Built on the company's Proteus™ Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform, the solution enables defense and security organizations to test and deploy counter-drone technologies in rapidly changing threat environments.As low-cost drones proliferate and communication protocols evolve, traditional hardware-bound test environments are struggling to keep pace. Tabor's platform replaces these constraints with a programmable framework that allows engineering teams to emulate and validate real-world RF scenarios in controlled lab environments-reducing reliance on extended field testing while accelerating development timelines.Originally developed in collaboration with leading anti-drone technology companies, the solution has already been proven in active development and integration workflows. Its commercial release brings a field-tested approach to organizations across defense, homeland security, public safety, and critical infrastructure.At the core of the platform is Tabor's Proteus SDR architecture, combining wideband RF signal generation and acquisition with real-time FPGA processing, deep memory, and high-throughput data movement in a compact COTS system. This integration enables closed-loop testing, where detection and mitigation techniques can be continuously validated and refined under realistic RF conditions.A Shift to Software-Defined ValidationTabor's solution changes how C-UAS systems are tested by moving validation into the lab and enabling rapid iteration through software. New threat scenarios can be introduced without hardware changes, allowing teams to adapt quickly while maintaining consistency between lab validation and real-world performance.This approach delivers clear operational benefits:Faster development and integration cyclesReduced dependence on field testingEnable predictable system performance before deploymentExtended lifespan of test infrastructureBy consolidating multiple RF test functions into a single scalable SDR platform, organizations can also reduce tool fragmentation and improve asset utilization across programs.Proteus SDR Platform OverviewThe Proteus platform is based on a direct digital RF architecture, supporting wide-frequency signal generation and acquisition with high instantaneous bandwidth for accurate threat emulation. Programmable FPGA resources enable real-time adaptability, while flexible form factors-including benchtop, desktop, and PXI-support both component-level development and full system evaluation. Multi-channel phase-coherent operation enables complex, synchronized test scenarios.Mark Elo, Chief Product Officer at Tabor Electronics, commented:"Counter-drone systems are being deployed into environments where threats evolve faster than traditional validation methods can keep up. We built this platform to close that gap-giving teams the ability to test against what's next, not what's already known."About Tabor ElectronicsFounded in 1971, Tabor Electronics is a global provider of signal generation and acquisition solutions serving defense, aerospace, communications, and advanced research markets.

SINGAPORE, May 15, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Travel goals often begin as ideas scribbled in a notebook or saved Instagram posts but turning them into real experiences can take thoughtful planning. One practical way travellers in Singapore explore these goals is by understanding how Travel Credit Cards can fit into their overall travel checklist. When used mindfully, the right card rewards can help reduce travel-related expenses and make trips feel more achievable. From flights and accommodation to daily spending abroad, a structured approach can help travellers make the most of what they already spend.This checklist is designed to help review travel plans and see how card rewards can support those goals in a realistic, manageable way.Define Your Travel Goals ClearlyClear travel goals provide direction and make planning feel less overwhelming. Instead of a vague plan to "travel more," it helps to identify destinations, timelines, and travel styles. For instance, a short regional trip to Bangkok or Bali may involve different costs and priorities compared to a longer holiday to Europe or Australia. In Singapore, a return flight within Southeast Asia can range between SGD 200 and SGD 500, while long-haul flights may cross SGD 1,200.Understand How Travel Rewards Fit Into Your PlansTravel rewards work best when they match existing spending patterns rather than forcing new habits. Many Travel Credit Cards in Singapore offer reward points or miles on everyday categories, such as dining, online shopping, and transport. Over time, these points can help offset flight bookings or hotel stays. This makes it easier to assess how everyday spending may contribute to future travel plans.Track Your Expenses and Reward PotentialTracking spending is an important part of reviewing how realistic travel goals are. Monthly expenses, such as groceries, utilities, and subscriptions, often total between SGD 1,500 and SGD 2,500 for many households in Singapore. When these expenses are channelled through cards offering travel rewards, points can accumulate gradually. Keeping a simple monthly record can also highlight which categories generate the most rewards.Check Reward Redemption Options and FlexibilityNot all rewards work the same way, so you should review redemption options. Some cards allow points to be converted into airline miles, while others offer travel vouchers or statement credits for travel bookings. Flexibility matters, especially for travellers who prefer multiple airlines or travel dates. Understanding the terms and conditions of rewards also helps clarify what is actually usable for your plans.Review Travel-Related Benefits Beyond RewardsMany Travel Credit Cards come with additional benefits, such as airport lounge access, travel insurance coverage, or discounts on hotel bookings. For example, complimentary lounge access at Changi Airport can help reduce pre-flight expenses, where meals alone may cost SGD 20-40. These features may be useful for travellers who value comfort and convenience alongside rewards.Plan for Overseas Spending and Currency CostsOverseas spending is an important part of any travel checklist, especially when travelling frequently. Foreign currency fees often range between 2.5% and 3.5% per transaction, which can add up quickly on longer trips. Some travel-focused cards offer lower foreign currency fees or bonus rewards for overseas spending. This is worth reviewing before choosing a card for regular use abroad.Review Annual Fees Against Real ValueAnnual fees are an important consideration when reviewing travel-related cards. In Singapore, annual fees for Travel Credit Cards can range from SGD 150 to SGD 500. While higher-fee cards often come with more generous rewards or perks, the value depends on individual travel frequency. A traveller taking one or two trips a year may find sufficient value in mid-range options. Reviewing fee waivers, renewal bonuses, and reward redemption potential can give a clearer picture of overall value.Turning Plans Into Meaningful Travel ExperiencesTravel planning does not have to feel complicated or financially overwhelming. With a clear checklist and realistic expectations, travellers in Singapore can review how everyday spending aligns with their travel goals. Travel Credit Cards, when chosen thoughtfully, can help make trips more accessible by offsetting certain costs and adding convenience. The key lies in understanding rewards, tracking progress, and revisiting goals regularly.Disclaimer: This content is published by iQuanti Singapore Pte.
