US$65 Million Estimated Value of Potential Tax Credits

Projects to Power Equivalent of 7,500 Homes

Community Solar and Energy Storage Projects Remain Eligible for 30% Investment Tax Credit and Potential Bonus Adders

This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's prospectus supplement dated June 5, 2025 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated May 7, 2025

, /PRNewswire/ - PowerBank Corporation (NASDAQ: SUUN) (Cboe CA: SUNN) (FSE: 103) ("PowerBank" or the "Company"), a leader in North American energy infrastructure development and asset ownership, is pleased to announce  the execution of equipment procurement agreements for 15 late-stage distributed solar and energy storage projects (the "Projects") across New York state through wholly owned subsidiaries. The projects are expected to bring approximately 67 MW DC of solar and 11 MWh of energy storage to the State. This procurement is expected to enable the Projects to remain eligible for United States federal Investment Tax Credits for energy projects under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025. Physical work on the procured equipment is expected to safe harbor the Projects by December 31, 2025. The Projects will have met the IRS Physical Work Test prior to the July 4, 2026 deadline under the United States One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

The value of the Investment Tax Credits associated with the Projects being harbored safely through this procurement is estimated at US$65 million, while the total construction value of the portfolio is estimated at US$168 million. 

PowerBank Corporation has the option to continue as the owner on some or all of the Projects under its expanding portfolio as an Independent Power Producer and intends on delivering the full EPC scope for the Projects whether it retains ownership or not.

The Company has leveraged its strong relationships with Tier 1 suppliers to secure the major equipment order of transformers necessary for the Projects. Subject to the receipt of permits and financing, commercial operation of the 15 projects is expected to occur over the next several years.

Investment Tax Credits have been available for solar projects since 2006, providing a 30% tax credit for commercial solar installations that meet specific requirements, with opportunities for ITC bonus adders. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed into law on July 4, 2025, specifies that the Section 48E Investment Tax Credit for solar facilities will be phased out, and projects which have begun construction on or before July 4, 2026, will remain eligible for the tax credits.

PowerBank's proven expertise, with over 100 MW of completed projects and a development pipeline exceeding 1 GW, underpins the execution of the Projects. Strategic partnerships and institutional-grade development capabilities position PowerBank to deliver reliable, high-impact renewable energy solutions.

The Projects advance New York's path to 10 GW of distributed solar and 6GW of energy storage by 2030. The State leads the United States in community solar capacity, having achieved the New York State Climate Act 6 GW solar goal in the fall of 2024.

There are several risks associated with the development of the Projects. The development of any project is subject to receipt of a community solar contract, receipt of interconnection approval, receipt of required permits, the availability of third-party financing arrangements for the Company and the risks associated with the construction of a solar power project. In addition, governments may revise, reduce or eliminate incentives and policy support schemes for solar power, which could result in the Projects receiving less tax credits than estimated and no longer being economic. Please refer to "Forward-Looking Statements" for additional discussion of the assumptions and risk factors associated with the Projects and statements made in this press release.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Token Cat Limited (Nasdaq: TC, the "Company") today announced that its Board of Directors has formally approved a Crypto Asset Investment Policy (the "Policy"), authorizing the Company to allocate a portion of its cash reserves into selected crypto assets under a disciplined risk-management framework.

After careful evaluation, the Company decided to proceed with this Policy. Earlier, it appointed Sav Persico, with thirty years of crypto and blockchain experience, as Chief Operating Officer to lead its implementation.

Guangsheng Liu, Chief Executive Officer of Token Cat Limited, stated:"The Policy is an important step in strengthening our asset strategy. Sav's deep expertise in crypto and blockchain will help us execute this long-term plan with strong discipline and effective leadership."

Core Framework of the Policy:
1. Defined investment authorization and capital ceiling
The Board has approved an overall allocation limit of up to USD 1 billion for digital asset planning. Deployment will proceed in phases based on market conditions, risk assessments and capital management needs.

2. Selective asset allocation
The initial allocation will focus on emerging crypto project tokens with strong growth prospects, including assets related to AI, RAW-to-chain initiatives, and token-equity hybrid models. Any future expansion into additional asset categories will require reassessment and approval by the Board's Risk Committee.

3. Highest-Tier Custody Standards: The Company will not self-custody acquired crypto assets.

4. Enhanced governance and oversight structure
The Company has formed a Crypto Asset Risk Committee, led by the CFO, to oversee asset allocation, manage risk controls, and report regularly to the Board.

Sav Persico commented:
It is an honor to take on this responsibility at such a pivotal time. The Company treats crypto assets as long-term value reserves, not speculative tools, aiming to enhance resilience amid macroeconomic uncertainty. I look forward to advancing our crypto asset strategy and strengthening industry collaboration to support sustainable, long-term growth.

Closing is subject to the Company receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, including the conditional approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Agents will receive a cash commission of 6.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering and such number of broker warrants (the "Broker Warrants") as is equal to 6.0% of the number of Units sold under the Offering (in each case, subject to reduction for certain subscribers on a president's list of purchasers identified by the Company).

Getty Images

Datavault AI (NASDAQ: DVLT) — a company that operates at the intersection of AI, data management, and Web3 — has experienced an increase of nearly 18% in its stock over the past week, despite being down more than 23% for the last month. For the year, shares have remained relatively stable. This rally indicates a growing investor confidence that the company is finally making progress on its Real World Asset (RWA) roadmap after years of establishing technical foundations.

Rather than choosing individual stocks, it is wiser to create a portfolio that is intended to succeed across different cycles. Our data indicates that the High Quality Portfolio has transformed the uncertainty of stock selection into consistent market-beating performance.

Overview of the Company

The firm offers tools to convert real-world assets (such as energy projects, mining resources, and commodities like gold and copper) and enterprise data into tokenized, tradable digital products via blockchain technology. It changes physical/traditional assets — including real estate, commodities, mining rights, invoices, carbon credits, royalties, and enterprise data — into blockchain-based tokens. Once tokenized, the assets can trade globally, 24/7, and ownership can be fractional. Furthermore, tokenized assets gain liquidity and programmability, and smart contracts can generate automated royalties or yields.

The company's ecosystem encompasses:

Tools that assess and safeguard data — AI systems that analyze, score, and secure enterprise data for safe usage or monetization.Infrastructure for tokenization — Blockchain and Web3 frameworks that facilitate the conversion of physical assets, such as energy projects, mines, or real estate, into digital tokens.DataScore — a platform that visualizes data, creates digital twins, and prepares assets for tokenization, simplifying the understanding of what businesses own and how it can be digitized.High-performance computing (HPC) which provides the necessary power to operate data exchanges, process large datasets, and support extensive global tokenization activities.DVLT’s business model focuses on generating licensing royalties and transaction fees from assets tokenized on its platform. The company positions itself as the foundational layer — the “rails” — for enterprise tokenization, earning revenue each time assets transition through its system. Its income sources consist of upfront fees, perpetual royalties linked to the value or volume of tokenized asset flows, and ongoing transaction fees from activities on its data exchanges.

Reasons Behind the Stock Surge?

Several factors have contributed to the gains. DVLT secured two significant commercial contracts — Triton Geothermal and MTB Mining — collectively valued at over $15 million. Both agreements include perpetual royalty streams associated with tokenized asset flows, providing concrete evidence that DVLT’s intellectual property can produce recurring, high-margin revenue. Triton’s agreement alone exceeds $8 million, with a 5% perpetual royalty on a planned $125 million geothermal token issuance, while MTB’s $7 million contract deals with the tokenization of copper deposits.

The firm has also bolstered its financial standing by completing the second tranche of its strategic equity financing. The additional liquidity, including contributions in Bitcoin, alleviates near-term cash pressures and supports the HPC development necessary for managing global data exchanges and RWA platforms. This action has reduced a significant financial burden and enhanced investor confidence.

Lastly, management reported an increasing interest from enterprises spanning energy, mining, biotech, and real estate sectors. Although these discussions have not yet translated into revenue, their scale and diversity suggest that the recent contracts are not mere isolated successes. The market interpreted this momentum as early indication that DVLT’s tokenization model could scale on an international level.

Financial Performance and Valuation

DVLT is trading at a high valuation, with a price-to-sales ratio nearing 10x, compared to approximately 3x for the wider market. Yet, its current fundamentals do not warrant such a premium. Q3 revenue stood at $2.9 million, while the company reported a net loss of around $33 million, and financial stability remains precarious with only about 1% of assets held in cash, while debt levels are high relative to market value.

Margins are extraordinarily weak. Operating margin hovers around –754%, and net margin is close to –1,310%, alongside significantly negative cash flow. These figures highlight how fragile the underlying business is currently and underscore the execution risk incorporated in the stock’s valuation.

One clearly positive aspect is growth. Revenue has increased by 148% year over year and more than 400% in the most recent quarter. This momentum, combined with management’s ambitious FY 2026 revenue forecast of over $200 million, a fourfold upward revision, accounts for why the market is willing to overlook today’s losses. DVLT remains a precarious endeavor: high ambition, high leverage, and high uncertainty. The stock is valued not on what the company is, but on what it asserts it can become — and its future hinges on converting its patents, early contracts, and HPC infrastructure into real, repeatable, scaled revenue before time and capital exhaust themselves.

The Trefis High Quality (HQ) Portfolio, comprised of 30 stocks, has a history of consistently outperforming its benchmark, which includes all three indices – the S&P 500, S&P mid-cap, and Russell 2000. What contributes to that? As a collective, HQ Portfolio stocks have delivered superior returns with reduced risk compared to the benchmark index; resulting in less volatility, as evidenced in HQ Portfolio performance metrics.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 2, 2025) - Group Eleven Resources Corp. (TSXV: ZNG) (OTCQB: GRLVF) (FSE: 3GE) ("Group Eleven" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the latest two step-out drill holes from its Ballywire discovery ("Ballywire") at the 100%-owned PG West Project ("PG West"), Republic of Ireland.

Highlights:

25-3552-47 (approx. 100m step-out SSE of 25-3552-40, initial test of the Deeper Cu-Ag target; announced 22-Sep-25) intersected four zones of mineralization, including:New Mineralized Zone (South) - Waulsortian Hosted (starting from 313.1m downhole)20.3m of 2.6% Zn+Pb (1.5% Zn and 1.1% Pb), 6 g/t Ag, including7.3m of 5.2% Zn+Pb (2.5% Zn and 2.7% Pb), 10 g/t Ag, including3.8m of 7.3% Zn+Pb (3.7% Zn and 3.6% Pb), 14 g/t Ag, including1.9m of 10.7% Zn+Pb (5.7% Zn and 5.0% Pb), 19 g/t AgNew Mineralized Zone (South) - Base of Waulsortian (starting from 355.9m downhole)2.6m of 2.7% Zn+Pb (0.1% Zn and 2.5% Pb) and 19 g/t Ag, including0.8m of 6.7% Zn+Pb (0.3% Zn and 6.5% Pb) and 37 g/t AgDeeper Cu-Ag Zone (starting from 490.7m downhole)11.3m of 0.26% Cu and 8 g/t Ag, including4.7m of 0.46% Cu and 14 g/t Ag, including1.8m of 0.83% Cu and 24 g/t AgDeeper Cu-Ag Zone (starting from 616.6m downhole)9.4m of 0.25% Cu and 7 g/t Ag, including3.7m of 0.32% Cu and 8 g/t Ag, including0.8m of 0.62% Cu and 16 g/t Ag"Today's results represent a positive surprise given we were not expecting robust Zn-Pb-Ag mineralization south of the main discovery trend at this particular location," stated Bart Jaworski, CEO. "In addition to successfully extending significant Deeper Cu-Ag mineralization down dip by over 200m from previous drilling, today's hole intersected strong Zn-Pb-Ag mineralization in a new part of the discovery. Long theorized, new zones of mineralization parallel to the main discovery trend at Ballywire were evidenced this September by hole 25-3552-44 which discovered a new Cu-Ag bearing feeder structure to the north of the main discovery. Today's results show a similar situation, but to the south, enhancing the potential for at least two additional mineralized zones. If borne out, this greatly expands Ballywire's tonnage potential."

"Driven by new zones of mineralization, growing momentum at our Deeper Cu-Ag zone and the fact that the majority of our 6km long prospective trend is yet to be drilled, Ballywire's exploration upside continues to ramp up. With a robust treasury and our most ambitious drilling campaign to date - four rigs turning in Ireland - we are poised to continue unlocking Ballywire's full potential over the coming months."

Ballywire Drill Update

The Ballywire prospect at the Company's 100%-owned PG West Project in Republic of Ireland, represents the most significant mineral discovery in Ireland in over a decade. First announced in Sept-2022, the discovery has 64 holes drilled and reported by Group Eleven to date, including the most recent two holes (25-3552-45 and -47) reported today (see Exhibits 1 to 6).

Assays from today's drill holes are summarized above and below (and in Exhibits 4 and 5). Mineralization consists predominantly of sphalerite, galena and pyrite, with the Cu-Ag bearing zones also containing chalcopyrite and suspected tennantite-tetrahedrite.

In addition to results from 25-3552-47, described above, hole 25-3552-45 intersected two zones of significant mineralization along a fault structure (see Exhibits 3 and 5). Strong exploration upside remains further to the NNW and SSE along this section.

Hole AN-25-10 Delivers Highest DTR Nickel Grade and Magnetic Concentrate Performance at RPM Zone; Company Plans to Announce Additional Drilling Around Hole 10 with Optimized Drilling Designed to Continue Eastward Expansion Toward Chrome Pond

GRAND FALLS-WINDSOR, Newfoundland and Labrador, Dec. 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Atlantic Nickel Corp. (TSXV: FAN) (OTCQB: FANCF) (FSE: P21) ("First Atlantic" or the "Company") is pleased to announce Davis Tube Recovery (“DTR”) metallurgical results from Phase 2X drill holes AN-25-09 and AN-25-10 at the RPM Zone within its Pipestone XL Nickel Alloy Project in central Newfoundland. Hole AN-25-10 has returned the highest magnetically recoverable nickel grades and recovery to date at the RPM Zone, averaging 0.15% DTR Ni over 228 meters from 0.22% total nickel, with 68.62% magnetic recovery. This is calculated from 1.44% nickel in magnetic concentrate with a 10.48% mass pull. The hole, positioned 200 meters east of the Company's previous best result (AN-24-04: 0.14% DTR Ni over 366 meters), confirms that eastward expansion drilling toward Chrome Pond continues to deliver above average results. The hole ended in mineralization at 233 meters after encountering a clay-filled fault zone, and the Company plans to announce additional drilling around Hole AN-25-10, with optimized drilling designed to penetrate deeper and continue the eastward expansion.

Hole AN-25-10 intersected the highest-grade intervals to date at the RPM Zone, including 0.17% DTR Ni from 8 meters to 59 meters (51 meters) and 0.16% DTR Ni from 215 meters to 236 meters (21 meters), with up to 2.08% nickel in magnetic concentrate and 99.8% nickel recovery reported from whole rock assay grades which averaged 0.22% nickel over the entire hole. The Company's current metallurgical program is based on magnetic separation prior to flotation, leveraging awaruite's unique magnetic properties. The average 10.48% mass pull further demonstrates that magnetic separation can reduce the starting rock volume by approximately 90%, concentrating the recoverable nickel into just 10% of the starting mass prior to flotation. The high 68.62% magnetic nickel recovery achieved in Hole AN-25-10 highlights the favourable performance that awaruite nickel can achieve relative to common bulk-tonnage nickel sulfide mineralization.

Unlike conventional nickel sulfide minerals such as pentlandite (Fe,Ni)₉S₈, which contain sulfur, a non-metallic chemical element that must be removed through secondary processes such as smelting or roasting prior to the refining stages required to produce nickel sulphate (NiSO4) for EV battery precursor cathode active materials (pCAM), awaruite (Ni₃Fe) is a naturally occurring nickel-iron-cobalt alloy that already exists in a reduced metallic state containing approximately 77% nickel. Composed entirely of metal elements, awaruite requires no reduction or chemical processing, offering a mine-direct-to-refinery pathway that bypasses the bottleneck of limited North American smelting capacity, with the potential to unlock large-scale domestic nickel production for the battery supply chain. The metallurgical program continues to advance, with mineralogy, recovery, and concentrate testing ongoing. In addition to cobalt as a byproduct, disseminated chromium occurs with awaruite in all RPM Zone drill holes, and the Company has expanded its metallurgical program to include chromium as an area of interest for potential byproduct recovery. The metallurgical program is designed to create a marketable direct-to-refinery awaruite concentrate containing nickel and cobalt, and the Company is now also evaluating the potential for a high-grade chromium concentrate. Updates on recovery, separation, and preliminary concentrate products for nickel, chromium, and cobalt are anticipated in early 2026.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS:

Best DTR Nickel Results to Date: Hole AN-25-10 returned 0.15% DTR Ni over 228 meters, the highest average magnetically recoverable nickel grade to date at the RPM Zone, calculated from 1.44% Ni in magnetic concentrate with a 10.48% mass pull. This represents a 25% increase over the RPM Zone average of 0.12% DTR Ni (calculated from 1.29% Ni concentrate and 9.25% mass pull).Highest-Grade Intervals - Open at Depth: Hole AN-25-10 returned 0.17% DTR Ni from 8 to 59 meters (51 m), and 0.16% DTR Ni from 215 to 236 meters (21 m), both the best interval grades to date. The drill hole stopped in mineralization at 233 meters due to a clay-filled fault zone with abundant magnetite. Follow-up drilling from new collar locations will test deeper near Hole AN-25-10.Eastward Drilling Delivers Best Results: Hole AN-25-10, positioned 200 meters east of the previous best hole (AN-24-04: 0.14% DTR Ni over 366 meters), exceeded that benchmark. The eastward trend toward Chrome Pond, where historic sampling returned up to 62.2% Cr₂O₃ - continues to yield the highest DTR Ni grades on the property.High Nickel Recovery from Awaruite: Hole AN-25-10 achieved 68.62% magnetic nickel recovery, the best average recovery to date at the RPM Zone. Awaruite (Ni₃Fe) contains approximately 77% nickel, or 2-3x the grade of common nickel sulfide minerals, enabling simpler magnetic concentration with less complicated flotation and supporting higher end-concentrate grades.Additional Drilling Planned: The Company plans to announce additional drilling around Hole AN-25-10. Optimized drilling is designed to test deeper and continue expansion eastward. The eastern extension toward Chrome Pond remains open and is a high priority target.Chromium Co-Product Potential: Chromium occurs with awaruite nickel in all RPM Zone drill holes, averaging 0.29% Cr and 0.15% DTR chromium. Mineralogy studies are underway to identify chromium mineral content and assess recovery and concentration potential for a chromium by-product concentrate.Metallurgical Program Expanding: Mineralogy, recovery, and concentrate testing are ongoing. Chromite has been identified as the chromium-bearing mineral, and the Company is evaluating recovery methods and processing options. Updates on recovery, separation, and preliminary nickel, chromium, and cobalt concentrate products are anticipated in early 2026.

Hole AN-25-10 was positioned 200 meters east of Hole AN-24-04, the Company's previous best drill hole (0.14% DTR Ni over 366 meters), to test the continuation of high-grade mineralization toward Chrome Pond. The hole returned 0.15% DTR Ni over 228 meters from 0.22% total nickel, with 68.62% magnetic recovery. This was calculated from 1.44% nickel in magnetic concentrate with a 10.48% mass pull, exceeding the RPM Zone averages of 1.29% Ni in concentrate and a 9.25% mass pull. This result represents a 25% increase over the average DTR Ni grade of 0.12% across all previously reported RPM Zone drill holes.

Hole AN-25-10 intersected the highest-grade intervals to date at the RPM Zone, including 0.17% DTR Ni from 8 to 59 meters (51 meters) and 0.16% DTR Ni from 215 to 236 meters (21 meters). These results confirm that the eastern extension of Line Section S1 hosts the best magnetically recoverable nickel grades reported to date, supported by visual observations of disseminated, large-grain awaruite mineralization throughout the entire drilled interval.

Drilling was halted at 233 meters after the hole encountered a clay-filled fault zone that caused complete loss of water circulation and excessive torque on the drill rods. Drill cuttings contained abundant magnetite that could not be washed from the borehole, preventing further advancement without risking equipment damage or the drill becoming irretrievably stuck downhole. Although the fault zone required suspension of drilling, the abundance of magnetite in the drill cuttings is encouraging, as awaruite commonly forms alongside magnetite during serpentinization. The hole ended in mineralization grading 0.16% DTR Ni over the final 21 meters, confirming continuation of the system at depth. Given the significance of these results, the Company plans to announce additional drilling around Hole AN-25-10, with optimized drilling designed to penetrate deeper and continue eastward expansion toward Chrome Pond.

Hole AN-25-09, located 800 meters north of the discovery drilling on Section S1, was drilled from the same collar location as Hole AN-25-08 but oriented in the opposite direction. This hole tested westward toward Pipestone Pond on Section S3 and intersected continuous mineralization over its entire 480-meter length, returning 0.09% DTR Ni from 0.95% nickel in magnetic concentrate from 42 to 417 meters, is greater than the 0.06% DTR Ni cutoff grade calculated at the Baptiste awaruite nickel deposit in British Columbia1.

The westward orientation of AN-25-09, drilled prior to refined structural interpretation, was not optimally oriented to test the true width of the awaruite-bearing body. Despite this, the hole provided valuable geological information confirming the westward-dipping system, consistent with results from Hole AN-25-07, which was also drilled westward on Section S2. The successful DTR results from eastward-oriented holes, compared with the sub-optimal westward orientation of AN-25-07 and AN-25-09, confirm that eastward-oriented drilling is essential to test the true width of the mineralized body and continues to deliver the best grades on the property.

AWARUITE NICKEL: HIGH RECOVERY FROM HIGH-GRADE MINERAL

Awaruite (Ni₃Fe) is a naturally occurring nickel-iron-cobalt alloy containing approximately 77% nickel2, or 2 to 3 times the nickel content of typical nickel sulfide minerals such as pentlandite (~25% Ni)3. Awaruite’s high nickel content and magnetic properties enables simpler magnetic concentration, with less complex flotation requirements than conventional sulfide processing, and supports higher end-concentrate grades.

DTR metallurgical testing at the RPM Zone has achieved an average nickel recovery of 68.62% across reported drill holes, demonstrating the effectiveness of magnetic separation for awaruite concentration. The 10.48% mass pull in Hole AN-25-10 shows that magnetic separation can reduce the starting rock volume by approximately 90%, concentrating the recoverable nickel into about 10% of the original rock mass prior to flotation. The Company's current metallurgical program is based on magnetic separation ahead of flotation, leveraging awaruite's unique magnetic properties to achieve superior recoveries relative to bulk tonnage nickel sulfide mineralization.

Unlike conventional nickel sulfide minerals such as pentlandite (Fe,Ni)₉S₈, which contain sulfur, a non-metal chemical element that takes-up weight and space within the mineral and needs to be removed through secondary processing such as high temperature smelting or roasting, awaruite's sulfur-free composition eliminates the need for smelting, roasting, or acid leaching. This positions the Pipestone XL Project as a potential domestic source of magnetically concentrated nickel that reduces reliance on overseas processing infrastructure.

PHASE 2X DRILLING PROGRAM UPDATE

The Phase 2X drilling program continues to expand the RPM Zone within the 4-kilometer strike length target area announced October 21, 2025. To date, approximately 3,500 meters of drill core from the RPM Zone have returned positive magnetically recoverable nickel results. Reported holes averaging 1.29% nickel in magnetic concentrate with a 9.25% mass pull, result in a calculated grade of 0.12% DTR nickel. The exceptional results from AN-25-10 (0.15% DTR Ni with 68.62% recovery) demonstrate increasing grades with eastward expansion toward Chrome Pond.

The Company plans to announce additional drilling targeting multiple directions:

Eastern Extension (High Priority): Following the exceptional results from Hole AN-25-10, additional drilling from optimized collars designed to penetrate deeper will target the zone beyond where the hole was halted, continuing the eastward expansion toward the historic Chrome Pond chromite prospect. The eastward trend has consistently delivered the best magnetically recoverable nickel grades on the property.Northern Extension: Systematic step-outs north of Section S3 will continue to test the 4-kilometer strike length potential outlined by DTR surface sampling.Southern Extension: Approximately 1 kilometer of southern extension potential has been identified in areas now reinterpreted as ultramafic peridotites hosting awaruite. CHROMIUM CO-PRODUCT AND METALLURGICAL PROGRAM

Chromium occurs disseminated with the awaruite nickel alloy in all RPM Zone drill hole intervals, averaging 0.15% DTR chromium across reported intersections with a 9.25% average mass pull. Based on consistent chromium assays in every RPM Zone drill hole to date, the Company has expanded its metallurgical program to include chromium as an area of interest for potential by-product recovery. Chromite has been identified as the source mineral for chromium, and its beneficiation potential is currently under investigation. Mineralogy analysis provides the foundation for determining future recovery methods, processing routes, and separation techniques, and will provide insight into potential concentrate grades. The Company anticipates updates on recovery, separation, and preliminary concentrate products for nickel, chromium, and cobalt in early 2026.

AWARUITE - RARE & PURE NATURAL NICKEL-IRON-COBALT ALLOY MINERAL

The sulfur-free nature of awaruite (Ni₃Fe), a naturally occurring nickel-iron-cobalt alloy already in metallic form, eliminates the need for secondary processes such as smelting, roasting or acid leaching that are typical of sulfide or laterite nickel ores. Unlike sulfides, which are not natural alloys, awaruite avoids the challenge of sourcing smelter capacity—a bottleneck in North America's nickel supply chain. With an average nickel grade of approximately 77%, awaruite significantly exceeds the ~25% nickel grade characteristic of pentlandite. Awaruite's strong magnetic properties enable concentration through magnetic separation, as demonstrated by Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) testing at First Atlantic's RPM Zone drill core.

Awaruite eliminates the electricity requirements, emissions, and environmental impacts associated with conventional smelting, roasting or acid leaching processes of common nickel minerals. Moreover, awaruite's sulfur-free composition removes the risks of acid mine drainage (AMD) and related permitting challenges commonly posed by sulfide minerals. As noted by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in 2012: "The development of awaruite deposits in other parts of Canada may help alleviate any prolonged shortage of nickel concentrate. Awaruite, a natural iron-nickel alloy, is much easier to concentrate than pentlandite, the principal sulfide of nickel."

Figure 10: Quote from USGS on Awaruite Deposits in Canada

DAVIS TUBE RECOVERY (DTR) METALLURGICAL TEST

Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) is a laboratory method that uses magnets to separate magnetic and non-magnetic material from a sample, similar to commercial magnetic separators used in mining operations. The percentage of magnetic mass recovered (mass pull) is used together with the assayed grade of the magnetic fraction to calculate the magnetically recoverable nickel.

DTR nickel percentage is calculated by: Mass Pull (%) × Magnetic Nickel Concentrate Grade (%). This represents the portion of nickel that can be recovered through magnetic separation and is not equivalent to a standard assay result. DTR results can vary based on equipment settings and technological advancements.

The Company has released a new educational video that breaks down the Davis Tube Recovery (DTR) test into five simple steps. This video is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding mineral exploration. Please visit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3zsgDtLWns to view the video.

Disclosure

Adrian Smith, P.Geo., a director and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company is a qualified person as defined by NI 43-101. The qualified person is a member in good standing of the Professional Engineers and Geoscientists Newfoundland and Labrador (PEGNL) and is a registered professional geoscientist (P.Geo.). Mr. Smith has reviewed and approved the technical information disclosed herein.

Analytical Method & QA/QC

Samples were split in half on site, with one half remaining in the core box for future reference and the other half securely packaged for laboratory analysis. The QA/QC protocol included the insertion of blanks, duplicates, and certified reference material (standards), with one QA/QC sample being inserted every 20 samples to monitor the precision and accuracy of the laboratory results. All analytical results successfully passed QA/QC screening at the laboratory, and all Company inserted standards and blanks returned results within acceptable limits.

Samples were submitted to Activation Laboratories Ltd. (“Actlabs”) in Ancaster, Ontario, an ISO 17025 certified and accredited laboratory operating independently of First Atlantic. Each sample was crushed, with a 250 g sub-sample pulverized to 95% - 200 mesh. A magnetic separate was then generated by running the pulverized sub-sample through a magnetic separator which splits the sub-sample into magnetic and non-magnetic fractions. This involves running a 30 g split of the pulp through a Davis Tube magnetic separator as a slurry using a constant flow rate, a magnetic field strength of 3,500 Gauss, and a tube angle of 45 degrees to produce magnetic and non-magnetic fractions.

The magnetic fractions are collected, dried, weighed and the magnetic fraction is fused with a lithium metaborate/tetraborate flux and lithium bromide releasing agent and then analyzed on a wavelength dispersive XRF for multiple elements including nickel, cobalt, iron and chromium. The magnetically recovered nickel grade was then calculated by multiplying the XRF fusion nickel value by the weight of the magnetic fraction and dividing by the total recorded feed weight or magnetic mass pulled from the sample.

True widths are currently unknown. However the nickel bearing ultramafic ophiolite and peridotite rocks being targeted and sampled in the Phase 1 drilling program at the Atlantic Nickel Project are mapped on surface and in drilling as several hundred meters to over 1 kilometer wide and approximately 30 kilometers long.

The SPDR Gold Shares ETF has easily outperformed Bitcoin, Nvidia, and the entire S&P 500 this year.

Billionaire Ken Griffin runs Citadel Advisors, a hedge fund that outperformed the S&P 500 (^GSPC 0.53%) by 7 percentage points over the last three years. Even more impressive, he is the most successful hedge fund manager in history as measured by net gains (after fees) since inception, according to LCH Investments.

One of Griffin's more noteworthy trades in the third quarter was starting a position in the SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD +0.48%), an index fund that has returned 60% year to date. Comparatively, Nvidia has returned 32%, Bitcoin has declined 2%, and the S&P 500 has gained 16%.

Importantly, while Citadel's position in the SPDR Gold Shares ETF is rather small, the hedge fund also owns call options on the fund. Those contracts, which afford Citadel the right but not the obligation to buy shares at a predetermined price, are collectively the fourth-largest position in the portfolio.

Also important, Griffin is not the only hedge fund billionaire to increase his exposure to gold during the third quarter. Israel Englander of Millennium Management and Paul Tudor Jones of Tudor Investment also added to their positions. Should you follow their lead?

The SPDR Gold Shares ETF is a convenient way for investors to participate in the gold market
The SPDR Gold Shares ETF is an exchange-traded fund managed by State Street. It tracks gold prices by holding physical bullion in vaults and issuing shares. The primary benefit for investors is the ability to participate in the gold market without the inconvenience (and extra costs) associated with buying, transporting, and storing gold bullion.

State Street says, "Gold has demonstrated a low and negative correlation to many financial asset indexes over time and has a track record of providing a hedge during periods of large market drawdowns, systemic risk, and geopolitical volatility." Indeed, the S&P 500 fell by an average of 39% during the last three bear markets, but the SPDR Gold Shares ETF added an average of 4% during those events.

Investors buy gold in times of economic distress, and Goldman Sachs anticipates more upside
Gold prices depend on supply and demand. The annual growth in the above-ground gold supply has been 1.5% to 2.5% for decades, meaning the available supply changes very little in any given year. That makes demand the most consequential variable, and demand increases during times of economic distress.

Specifically, investors often buy gold when they are worried about inflation or a recession. President Donald Trump has stoked those concerns by imposing tariffs and attempting to influence the Federal Reserve's monetary policy, as detailed below:

Trump on several occasions has contemplated firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell. Doing so would undermine the central bank's independence, which would erode confidence in future monetary policy decisions and the U.S. dollar.
Trump imposed severe tariffs that have raised the average tax on U.S. imports to its highest level since the 1930s. The president claims tariffs will make America richer, but empirical evidence says they will ultimately hurt economic growth.

The bullet points above explain why demand for gold has skyrocketed this year. Investors must now ask themselves whether demand will keep climbing, or whether the market has already priced in concerns about Trump's trade policies and attempts to undermine the independence of the Federal Reserve.

No one truly knows the answer to that question, but Goldman Sachs estimates the price of gold will reach $4,745 per troy ounce in the next 12 months. That implies 13% upside from the current price of $4,200 per troy ounce. But J.P. Morgan analysts think demand for gold is currently driven (in part) by momentum, and those trades "eventually run out of steam."

Personally, I think investors can buy a small position in the SPDR Gold Shares ETF today, but I worry the significant price appreciation seen this year sets the stage for a drawdown at some point in the not-too-distant future.

Some investors are jumping ship. Here's why you shouldn't.

It's been a pretty good year for Netflix (NFLX +1.44%) and Veeva Systems (VEEV +0.05%), with both stocks slightly outperforming broader equities since January. However, some might worry about recent pullbacks for both stocks. Could there be issues that will further sink their share prices and disrupt their prospects?

My view is that Netflix and Veeva Systems have excellent outlooks that should allow them to outperform the market, once again, over the long run, despite recent dips. Here's what investors need to know.

1. Netflix
Netflix's third-quarter results slightly disappointed investors due to an unexpected tax expense, which led to lower-than-anticipated net income. It then made even more noise when it announced and implemented a 10-for-1 stock split. This move doesn't improve a company's underlying operations, but it often reveals that management has confidence in the business's near-term prospects.

The confidence is justified. The streaming specialist has been firing on all cylinders and could see a significant boost over the next 12 months as new launches or events lead to more subscribers, engagement, and a boost in sales within its still relatively new ad business. Netflix is releasing the final season of its hugely popular show Stranger Things, for instance, and will host live NFL games on Christmas Day for the second consecutive year.

This live event should attract a large audience and advertisers, potentially driving Netflix's sales higher. And beyond the next year, Netflix still has plenty of room to grow in the streaming market.

Streaming has gained significant traction over the past decade, but other forms of entertainment, particularly cable, are alive and well. Netflix's goal is to replace cable, so there is plenty more work to be done. But what about the competition? The company has thrived despite the changing competitive landscape thanks to at least two factors. First, Netflix has a strong brand name associated with streaming. That's where people gravitate toward the most. That's why it remains the leader in television viewing time among its relevant competitors.

Second, Netflix's extensive ecosystem and the data it has access to continue to enable it to craft a winning content strategy, providing a beautiful example of the network effect. These two factors grant Netflix a significant competitive edge and should allow it to be one of the primary beneficiaries of the remaining $650 billion opportunity the company sees across the markets it serves.

And investors shouldn't worry too much about the lower-than-expected third-quarter net income, as the tax expense it incurred should be a one-time thing and won't impact its results moving forward. So, Netflix could perform well heading into 2026, but more importantly, the company's long-term prospects are attractive.

2. Veeva Systems
Veeva Systems isn't the best-known cloud computing company. But it is the top player in the life sciences niche of the industry. Focusing on this single market has some disadvantages. Veeva Systems' cloud services aren't well-suited to the demands of most corporations outside the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medtech sectors. However, there is also a significant advantage.

Since Veeva Systems develops its cloud solutions with the unique demands of its clients and their industry in mind -- which include data integrity, patient confidentiality, and stringent regulatory oversight -- it has become one of the go-to providers for many of the largest companies in the sector it targets. Veeva Systems' client list includes notable companies such as Merck and Eli Lilly, among others.

The results of the company's strategy have been increased adoption of its services and strong financial results. In the third quarter of its fiscal year 2026, ending on Oct. 31, the company's revenue increased 16% year over year to $811.2 million, while its adjusted earnings per share came in at $2.04, up from the $1.75 reported in the year-ago period.

Veeva Systems' shares dropped despite strong results due to its guidance that implies lower growth than analysts had expected, coupled with the company potentially losing some major clients. Despite these challenges, there are excellent reasons to stick with Veeva Systems. Earlier this year, it achieved its goal of reaching an annual revenue run rate of $3 billion by 2025. It plans to double that total by 2030.

Veeva has generally met these targets on time or ahead of schedule. Doubling its revenue by 2030 would imply top-line growth in the mid-teens through the end of the decade, which is still a strong rate of growth. Furthermore, even an annual revenue of $6 billion would leave plenty of room for growth, as it estimates a total addressable market of $20 billion.This vast opportunity is a major reason Veeva Systems' long-term outlook is attractive.

Lastly, Veeva Systems should continue innovating and launching new services, as it has in the past. The company is gearing up to release Veeva AI, a suite of AI tools designed specifically for life science companies to help them boost productivity and efficiency, including in areas such as preparing clinical trials.

Veeva Systems might see strong adoption of this new launch next year, and over the medium term, it's yet another tool that makes it one of the best choices in its niche of the cloud market. These are all reasons why Veeva Systems' stock is a buy.
