As reported by Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the Tender and Information Agent for the Tender Offers.

The Tender Offers are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions as set forth in the Offer to Purchase; as of the date hereof, the Financing Condition described in the Offer to Purchase has been satisfied. Subject to applicable law, the Offerors may waive any and all of these conditions or extend, terminate or withdraw the Tender Offers with respect to one or more Series of Notes or further increase or decrease the Maximum Amount, including on or after the Price Determination Date (as defined below). The Tender Offers are not conditioned upon any minimum amount of Notes being tendered.

Withdrawal rights for the Notes expired on the Early Tender Deadline. The Company expects to make payment on June 18, 2026 (the “Early Settlement Date”) for Notes that were validly tendered prior to or at the Early Tender Deadline and that are accepted for purchase.

The Company has amended the Maximum Amount to accept up to $417,851,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline. The consideration for each $1,000 in principal amount of Notes tendered and not withdrawn before the Early Tender Deadline and accepted for payment pursuant to the Tender Offers will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase. The consideration will be determined by reference to a fixed spread specified for each Series of Notes over the yield based on the bid-side price of the applicable Reference U.S. Treasury Security specified in the table above, as fully described in the Offer to Purchase. The consideration will be calculated by the Dealer Managers for the Tender Offers at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on June 16, 2026 (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Price Determination Date”). The Early Tender Premium for each Series of Notes is $50 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes.

Any future purchases or redemptions may be on the same terms or on terms that are more or less favorable to Holders of Notes than the terms of the Tender Offers. Any future purchases by the Offerors, the Company or any of their respective affiliates will depend on various factors existing at that time. There can be no assurance as to which, if any, of these alternatives (or combinations thereof) the Offerors, the Company or any of their respective affiliates may choose to pursue in the future. The effect of any of these actions may directly or indirectly affect the price of any Notes that remain outstanding after the consummation or termination of the Tender Offer.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Tender Offers, the Offerors will not be obligated to accept for purchase, and pay for, validly tendered Notes of any Series pursuant to the Tender Offers if the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase have not been satisfied, or waived by the Offeror, with respect to such Series of Notes.

On June 15, 2026, Eldorado Gold Corp EGO shares rose 10.1%, bringing the current price to $33.76. This movement marks a significant rebound compared to the stock's 52-week range of $19.56 to $51.16.

GF Value™ verdict: Currently priced at $33.76, EGO is estimated to be 3.1% overvalued compared to its GF Value™ of $32.75.GF Score™: EGO has a strong GF Score™ of 86/100, indicating solid fundamentals and growth potential.Most notable signal: There have been no insider transactions in the last 3 months, suggesting a lack of insider confidence in the current valuation. Is EGO Overvalued or Undervalued? The current market price of Eldorado Gold Corp EGO is $33.76, which is above its GF Value™ estimate of $32.75, indicating that the stock is currently 3.1% overvalued. This means that there is no margin of safety for potential investors, as the stock trades above its intrinsic value according to GuruFocus metrics. The GF Valuation label classifies EGO as fairly valued, but the slight overvaluation suggests a risk for investors considering entry points in the stock.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given the current price exceeds the GF Value™, investors may want to approach with caution, acknowledging the potential for price corrections in the near future.

How Does EGO's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 12.1x 17.8x Forward P/E 8.0x N/A The current P/E (TTM) of 12.1x is significantly below its 5-year median P/E of 17.8x, suggesting that the stock is trading at a discount compared to its historical valuation. The forward P/E of 8.0x further indicates a potential for growth moving forward. This analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict of EGO being overvalued, as the lower P/E ratio may reflect investor sentiment and market conditions that could pose risks despite its strong growth outlook.

What Does EGO's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 86/100 Financial Strength 7/10 Profitability 7/10 Growth 10/10 Valuation 9/10 Momentum 3/10 The GF Score™ of 86/100 indicates that Eldorado Gold Corp possesses strong fundamentals, particularly in growth, where it achieved a perfect score of 10/10, suggesting robust future earnings potential. However, the momentum rank of 3/10 indicates that the stock may be experiencing weakness in its recent price performance compared to its historical trends. Overall, the scores reflect a mixed but generally positive outlook for EGO, with the growth potential being the standout feature while momentum presents as a concern.

What Are Insiders Doing with EGO Stock? Currently, there have been no insider transactions in the last 3 months for Eldorado Gold Corp. This lack of activity can suggest that insiders are either confident in the current valuation or uncertain about the direction of the stock price. In the absence of buying or selling, it is difficult to gauge the sentiment of those closest to the company regarding its future performance.

What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ analysis, Eldorado Gold Corp EGO is currently overvalued with a price of $33.76 compared to a GF Value™ of $32.75. Potential investors should be cautious, given the lack of margin of safety and the risk of price corrections in the current market environment.

On June 15, 2026, Oscar Health Inc OSCR shares rose 3.1% to $29.14, continuing a strong upward trend with a remarkable year-to-date increase of 102.8%. The stock has fluctuated between a 52-week low of $10.69 and a high of $29.42 over the past year.

GF Value™ verdict: Current price of $29.14 is 39.4% above GF Value™ of $20.91, indicating the stock is overvalued.GF Score™: 80/100, signifying a strong overall performance relative to its peers.Most notable signal: Insider activity shows $11.9 million in purchases and $7.0 million in sales over the last three months, indicating mixed sentiment among insiders. Is OSCR Overvalued or Undervalued? Oscar Health Inc's current price of $29.14 significantly exceeds the GF Value™ estimate of $20.91, marking the stock as 39.4% overvalued. This situation suggests a lack of margin of safety for potential investors, as purchasing shares at this price could expose them to downside risk if the market corrects towards the intrinsic value. The GF Valuation label categorizes the stock as "Significantly Overvalued," emphasizing the caution necessary when considering an investment in OSCR at this time.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given the current overvaluation, investors may want to approach OSCR with caution, as the risk of a price correction looms large in an environment where stock prices are detached from fundamental values.

How Does OSCR's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 31.3x 49.8x Oscar Health's current forward P/E ratio of 31.3x is notably lower than its 5-year median P/E of 49.8x, indicating that while the stock is trading above its historical valuation, it is less expensive relative to its past performance metrics. This P/E analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict of being overvalued, as it suggests that the market is pricing OSCR at a higher valuation than its historical averages, which is a potential red flag for investors.

What Does OSCR's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 80/100 Financial Strength 6/10 Profitability 3/10 Growth 10/10 Valuation 5/10 Momentum 10/10 The GF Score™ of 80/100 indicates a strong position overall, with notable strengths in growth and momentum, both rated at 10/10. However, the profitability rank of 3/10 suggests significant room for improvement in this area. The financial strength score of 6/10 reflects a solid foundation, but it is not extraordinary. The mixed signals from these scores highlight that while Oscar Health exhibits strong growth potential, it faces challenges in profitability that could impact long-term sustainability.

What Are Insiders Doing with OSCR Stock? Recent insider activity at Oscar Health shows that insiders have purchased $11.9 million worth of shares while selling $7.0 million. This pattern of buying could suggest confidence among insiders about the company's future prospects. However, the simultaneous selling indicates that some insiders may also be looking to capitalize on recent price increases. The mixed nature of this activity could reflect differing outlooks among insiders regarding the company's performance moving forward.

What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ assessment, Oscar Health Inc OSCR is currently overvalued. The significant divergence between the current price and the estimated GF Value™ indicates potential risks for investors considering entry points at this valuation level.

Microsoft turns to Amazon for help with GitHub's AI-driven capacity issues By You're currently following this author! Want to unfollow? Unsubscribe via the link in your email.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. George Chan/Getty Images Microsoft is turning to its biggest cloud rival, Amazon, to help address capacity issues on its GitHub coding platform following a series of AI-driven outages, according to two people familiar with the plans.

GitHub, which Microsoft acquired in 2018, is a popular place for engineers to store and manage code, and collaborate on projects. As an independent company, GitHub mostly operated its own data centers, but Microsoft had planned to move the coding platform entirely to its Azure cloud service by 2027.

Now, a boom in AI demand is forcing Microsoft to lean on Amazon. AI coding tools have made it easier for developers to write more software. That has swamped GitHub with a flood of new code, straining its compute resources.

GitHub commits — records of code changes that serve as a proxy for development activity — were on pace to reach 14 billion in 2026, up from 1 billion in 2025, Chief Operating Officer Kyle Daigle wrote on X in April.

To handle this surge in activity, Microsoft is adding extra computing capacity via Amazon Web Services, the people familiar said.

The move is notable because Microsoft is battling AWS for market share in the cloud market. Giving an arch rival more business, rather than addressing GitHub needs via its own Azure cloud service, is likely not an ideal move for Microsoft.

However, AI-driven demand is so strong that other big tech companies are having to make similar deals.

Earlier this month, SpaceX and Google disclosed a new deal in which Google will pay SpaceX $920 million a month for AI compute capacity from October 2026 to June 2029. That emerged just two months after Google's own cloud business agreed to sell AI compute capacity to Anthropic.

GitHub's "multi-cloud" strategyA Microsoft spokesperson confirmed GitHub is tapping multiple cloud providers but declined to comment on any Amazon involvement.

"The incredible spike in agentic development that began late last year has tested our infrastructure's limits," the spokesperson said. To meet this demand, Microsoft is "both accelerating our move to Azure and continuing to explore a multi-cloud strategy to ensure we have the future capacity, compute elasticity and horizontal scale required to support continued growth."

An Amazon spokesperson said the company doesn't comment on individual clients, but said "customers choose AWS because they need global infrastructure that performs reliably, securely, and efficiently at scale, and we're committed to providing the best performance no matter the workload."

Keeping services runningWhile these deals might seem strange, the main goal is to keep popular services running for customers — no matter who you have to work with.

For Microsoft, that's likely the situation with GitHub, which has suffered dozens of major outages in 2026.

Mitchell Hashimoto, cofounder of startup HashiCorp, in April wrote that GitHub was "no longer a place for serious work if it just blocks you out for hours per day, every day."

GitHub had an early lead among engineers. Lately, though, it has faced more competition from AI tools such as Cursor and Anthropic's Claude Code.

Microsoft recently projected that its capital expenditures for the 2026 calendar year will reach $190 billion, largely to expand data center capacity. However, many data center projects are delayed, and Microsoft has a host of other important AI projects and businesses that it must support with compute capacity.

In an internal meeting late last year, a Microsoft executive spoke about needing to overhaul GitHub to compete with Cursor and Claude Code, according to audio reviewed by Business Insider.

Microsoft Amazon Web Services Cloud Computing More Artificial Intelligence Exclusive Amazon

One of the key tenets of Alphabet's (GOOGL +2.56%) (GOOG +2.38%) artificial intelligence (AI) strategy has long been the company's custom-built semiconductors. The Google parent first developed its Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) more than a decade ago, and these custom processors were "purpose-built specifically for AI," according to the company, becoming a key part of its strategic advantage.

These application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) are "a chip designed for a single, specific purpose," according to Google: providing the computational horsepower for "running the unique matrix and vector-based mathematics that's needed for building and running AI models."

Alphabet's latest move turned heads, and the company appears to be going all-in on its deal with Intel (INTC +2.64%).

Image source: The Motley Fool.

A pairing of titansIntel and Alphabet have been collaborating for years, developing specialized processors for AI, but those chips have been manufactured by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSMC). However, as the AI boom continues to gain steam, TSMC has been struggling to keep up with the relentless demand. That's where Intel comes in.

Google has reportedly placed an order for 3 million TPUs with Intel to be delivered through 2028. This newfound confidence comes after Google spent months testing Intel's chip packaging technology to ensure the company could meet its rigid standards.

An order of this magnitude could be a game changer for Intel, suggesting Google is no longer willing to rely solely on TSMC for its advanced chipmaking needs. This would give the company an additional source of AI-centric chips, helping it avoid bottlenecks that result from relying on a single provider. It could also serve as further validation for Intel's recently reinvigorated foundry business, driven by the ongoing demand for AI.

At the heart of Google's AI strategyThese custom processors have become an increasingly important part of Alphabet's cloud and AI strategy. Earlier this year, at the company's Cloud Next conference, Google introduced two powerful new AI chips that differed from their predecessors in one key way. Whereas the company had previously focused its efforts on all-purpose TPUs, this year saw the release of two distinct architectures -- the TPU 8t and TPU 8i. As you may have guessed, the TPU 8t is dedicated to training workloads, while the TPU 8i was designed for inference.

At the unveiling, Amin Vahdat -- Google's senior VP and chief technologist for AI and infrastructure -- noted that in a world of AI agents, "we determined the community would benefit from chips individually specialized to the needs of training and serving," he said. The Google exec said that this "specialization unlocks significant efficiencies and gains." Specifically, the company has been able to run its most demanding AI workloads "two to four times faster and at a 30% lower cost" than with its previous-generation TPUs.

Google recently announced that it will sell TPUs "to a select group of customers," a notable shift from its historical practice of only using these chips internally. Executives said this decision will significantly "expand our total addressable market."

This has helped fuel a sizeable increase in Google's backlog, which nearly doubled year over year to $460 billion.

For all that opportunity, Alphabet stock is selling for a song at just 28 times earnings. Time to buy before the market comes to its senses.

High Yield Dividend Stocks in Gurus' Portfolio Top dividend stocks of Warren Buffett Top dividend stocks of George Soros

Roku (ROKU 1.92%) has been soaring in recent days amid rumors of a major acquisition, sending the stock to new heights. On Monday, a deal was formally announced, and the stock fell modestly, closing just under $141, up 30% year to date. Not only has it hit a new 52-week high recently, but it's now trading at levels it hasn't been at in multiple years.

Is it likely to rise even higher, or is it too late to buy the streaming stock now that a deal has been announced?

Image source: Getty Images.

Fox to buy Roku for $22 billion On Monday, Fox Corp (FOX 15.22%) announced it reached a deal to acquire Roku for an enterprise value of roughly $22 billion, funded through both cash and stock. Shares of Roku were rising even before the news came out, as investors often buy the rumor and sell the news. And on Monday, the stock would actually fall by just under 2%.

The move enables Fox to reach more customers through Roku's popular streaming platform, which more than 100 million households use. It unlocks greater growth and monetization opportunities for the business.

Typically, when an acquisition is announced, the stock of the company being acquired rises to that valuation, unless investors doubt the deal will go through. With Roku's stock rising 14% over the past month, its market cap is now around $21 billion, suggesting investors have a lot of confidence the deal won't run into any hiccups.

Is there a reason to buy Roku stock today? Fox's acquisition of Roku is not expected to close until the first half of next year. Assuming the deal progresses without issue, it's highly likely Roku's stock won't move much between now and then, since the company's value has been agreed upon. The one wrinkle, however, is that because there's an element of stock involved, it will affect Roku's share price. As part of the deal, Roku shareholders will receive Fox Class A common stock, whose volatility and price movements could determine Roku's stock's direction between now and the completion of the deal. But besides that, there isn't much of a reason to invest in Roku at this stage; any potential upside is limited.

When a stock is at this stage, waiting for an acquisition to complete, there typically isn't much volatility. If the deal falls through, then that's an entirely different story. But for now, investors may be better off looking past Roku and focusing on other growth stocks instead.

The automaker seeks to grow its defense subsidiary as the U.S. aims to replenish munitions supplies.

By PYMNTS  |  June 15, 2026

CrowdStrike has added a new security control plane for artificial intelligence agents that provides continuous, risk-aware enforcement.

The new Continuous Identity for AI agents, which joins the CrowdStrike Falcon Platform, authorizes every agent action based on who owns it, who is calling it, and real-time risk, the company said in a Monday (June 15) press release.

“Authorize once and trust indefinitely is not a security model; it’s a liability,” CrowdStrike Chief Technology Officer Elia Zaitsev said in the release. “That’s the shift CrowdStrike is driving, from static, one-time access decisions to Continuous Identity.”

Continuous Identity for AI Agents provides verifiable agent identity in which every agent is assigned an automated, secure workload identity; context-aware authorization that evaluates access based on who owns the agent, who is calling it and the risk posture of their device; zero standing privilege that grants access when it’s needed and revokes it when it’s not; and defense in depth that ensures agents operate with only the privileges they need, according to the release.

This new offering is powered by technology CrowdStrike gained with its acquisition of SGNL, according to the release. When announcing the acquisition in a January press release, CrowdStrike said the move would redefine privilege and access for all users.

CrowdStrike said in a Monday blog post that while identity security has long been built around authenticating a user, granting access and trusting that decision until their next login, this model doesn’t work for AI models.

“The speed of these agents, combined with the varying privileges of the humans using them, means a trust decision that was valid at login may no longer be valid moments later,” the post said. “A compromised credential or change in business context can instantly alter risk. It’s not enough to grant access once and assume trust persists.”

The PYMNTS Intelligence report “How Enterprises Can Build a ‘Know Your Agent’ Defense: Digital Identity Verification in the Age of Bots” found that the rise of agentic commerce is exposing weaknesses in traditional identity models.

Nearly 90% of enterprises said bot management is now a major challenge, and outdated digital identity controls are costing businesses nearly $100 billion annually in fraud, false declines and lost customers, according to the report.

Halliburton (HAL - Free Report) closed the most recent trading day at $38.18, moving -3.59% from the previous trading session. This change lagged the S&P 500's 1.65% gain on the day. At the same time, the Dow added 0.92%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq gained 3.07%.

Shares of the provider of drilling services to oil and gas operators witnessed a loss of 5.17% over the previous month, trailing the performance of the Oils-Energy sector with its loss of 2.71%, and the S&P 500's gain of 0.48%.

The investment community will be closely monitoring the performance of Halliburton in its forthcoming earnings report. The company is scheduled to release its earnings on July 21, 2026. The company's earnings per share (EPS) are projected to be $0.54, reflecting a 1.82% decrease from the same quarter last year. Meanwhile, the latest consensus estimate predicts the revenue to be $5.48 billion, indicating a 0.5% decrease compared to the same quarter of the previous year.

HAL's full-year Zacks Consensus Estimates are calling for earnings of $2.34 per share and revenue of $22.23 billion. These results would represent year-over-year changes of -3.31% and +0.21%, respectively.

It is also important to note the recent changes to analyst estimates for Halliburton. These recent revisions tend to reflect the evolving nature of short-term business trends. Consequently, upward revisions in estimates express analysts' positivity towards the business operations and its ability to generate profits.

Our research demonstrates that these adjustments in estimates directly associate with imminent stock price performance. To benefit from this, we have developed the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model which takes these estimate changes into account and provides an actionable rating system.

Ranging from #1 (Strong Buy) to #5 (Strong Sell), the Zacks Rank system has a proven, outside-audited track record of outperformance, with #1 stocks returning an average of +25% annually since 1988. Over the past month, the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has shifted 1.15% upward. Halliburton is holding a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold) right now.

Looking at its valuation, Halliburton is holding a Forward P/E ratio of 16.91. This valuation marks a discount compared to its industry average Forward P/E of 23.71.

Also, we should mention that HAL has a PEG ratio of 1.71. Comparable to the widely accepted P/E ratio, the PEG ratio also accounts for the company's projected earnings growth. The Oil and Gas - Field Services industry currently had an average PEG ratio of 2.25 as of yesterday's close.

The Oil and Gas - Field Services industry is part of the Oils-Energy sector. This industry, currently bearing a Zacks Industry Rank of 196, finds itself in the bottom 20% echelons of all 250+ industries.

The Zacks Industry Rank assesses the strength of our separate industry groups by calculating the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks contained within the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The law firm of Kirby McInerney LLP continues its investigation on behalf of Wix.com Ltd. (“Wix” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:WIX) investors concerning the Company’s and/or members of its senior management’s possible violation of the federal securities laws and other unlawful business practices.

[LEARN MORE ABOUT THE INVESTIGATION]

What Happened?

On May 13, 2026, Wix released its first quarter 2026 financial results. The Company reported earnings and revenue below consensus expectations, and a decline in operating margins which the Company largely attributed to softness in its professional developer business. Specifically, Wix acknowledged that its professional developer customers were using competing AI tools, its new Wix Harmony platform had “holes” and “missing capabilities,” there had been delays in delivering product updates and innovation to professional developer customers, and as a result, the Company had fallen behind “the workflow and the needs” of professional developers. On this news, the price of Wix shares declined by $20.56 per share, or approximately 27%, from $75.88 per share on May 12, 2026 to close at $55.32 on May 13, 2026.

Then, on June 8, 2026, Wix unveiled an organizational restructuring that includes a 20% workforce reduction and reducing financial expectations for 2026. The Company said that organizational changes are expected to reduce bookings by about $50 million and revenue by around $25 million. Wix now expects full-year bookings to grow in the low-teens percentage rate, down from previous expectations of mid-teens percentage growth. Full-year and second-quarter revenue growth were also downgraded to low- to mid-teens percentage growth from mid-teens. On this news, the price of Wix shares declined by $4.18 per share, or approximately 8%, from $52.39 per share on June 5, 2026 to close at $48.21 on June 8, 2026.

What Should I Do?

At this stage, no lawsuit has been filed. The investigation is ongoing to determine whether claims may be brought under federal securities laws.

If you purchased or otherwise acquired Wix securities, have information, or would like to learn more about this investigation, please contact Lauren Molinaro of Kirby McInerney LLP by email at [email protected], or fill out the contact form below, to discuss your rights or interests with respect to these matters at no cost.

"A traveler can set up the AI concierge in two minutes via Claude. Once set up, they can ask the agent to make a hotel booking, which will quickly narrow down the options for the traveler based on their prompt, avoiding decision paralysis," said Juan Otero, Travala's CEO.

"The way we book travel is changing," Otero said. Agentic bookings are the next iteration of the online experience, and will exist alongside traditional online bookings and human travel agents for at least the foreseeable future. But I think the online travel market is moving toward agentic commerce, even though it's still very early days," he said.

Travala true believers – and users – hold the company's token, AVA. This is a micro-cap trade, trading at around $0.19. Like many alt-coins, it has collapsed since its initial offering and has had a rough 2026 like the broad cryptocurrencies market. AVA is a utility/rewards token. Token ownership does not equate to equity ownership in the company.
