Funding is expected to support operations into mid-2029. Shares of Beam Therapeutics (BEAM - Free Report) have risen 21% over the past three months against the industry’s 4.5% decline, primarily driven by positive clinical developments. Investor sentiment has also been bolstered by rapid regulatory progress across the company’s pipeline, strengthening confidence in its base-editing platform and in its strong financial position.

Strong Clinical Data From BEAM-302An important catalyst behind the stock’s rally has been the encouraging early data announced in late March from an ongoing phase I/II dose-escalation study evaluating its pipeline candidate, BEAM-302, for the treatment of patients with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD), across multiple dose levels. BEAM-302 is a liver-targeting lipid-nanoparticle formulation of base editing reagents designed to correct the disease-causing PiZ mutation.

The study demonstrated that BEAM-302 produced durable increases in functional AAT levels, significant reductions in mutant Z-AAT and the generation of corrected M-AAT, with a favorable safety profile across single doses up to 75 mg.

BEAM plans to advance BEAM-302 via an accelerated approval pathway, based on a primary endpoint of AAT biomarkers evaluated for more than 12 months, with the 60 mg selected as the optimal biological dose for further development.

To support a future biologics license application (BLA), the company anticipates enrolling approximately 50 additional patients with AATD-related lung disease, with or without liver involvement, by expanding its ongoing open-label phase I/II study. BEAM expects to initiate the global cohort in the second half of 2026.

Multiple Upcoming Pipeline CatalystsBeyond BEAM-302, investors have become increasingly optimistic about BEAM's broader pipeline. The company remains on track to submit a BLA for risto-cel, its investigational sickle cell disease therapy, by the end of 2026.

Beam Therapeutics is also expanding its genetic disease pipeline by developing BEAM-301 for the treatment of glycogen storage disease type 1a in a phase I/II dose-exploration study. Initial data from the study are expected in 2026.

The company expanded its liver-targeted genetic disease franchise with BEAM-304 for the treatment of phenylketonuria and plans to file an investigational new drug application with the FDA in 2026.

Dosing in the ongoing phase I healthy volunteer study, evaluating BEAM-103, an anti-CD117 monoclonal antibody for the treatment of SCD, is expected to be completed in 2026.

BEAM’s Strong Financial PositionBeam has historically maintained a large cash runway, which reassures investors that it can fund ongoing clinical development without near-term dilution concerns.

The company reported approximately $1.2 billion in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities at the end of the first quarter of 2026. Management expects its cash position, including the initial $100 million received and an anticipated additional $100 million under its financing agreement with Sixth Street, to support operations into mid-2029.

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - June 16, 2026) - WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK) between May 8, 2024 and February 25, 2026, inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important July 6, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased FS KKR Capital securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the FS KKR Capital class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=64089 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 6, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved, at that time, the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) FS KKR Capital overstated the effectiveness of its portfolio restructuring efforts for its nonaccrual companies; (2) FS KKR Capital overstated the valuation of its portfolio investments and/or overstated the effectiveness of FS KKR Capital's portfolio valuation process; (3) FS KKR Capital overstated the durability of its quarterly distribution strategy; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, defendants' positive statements about FS KKR Capital's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the FS KKR Capital class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=64089 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

What is the FS KKR Capital securities fraud lawsuit about?

The FS KKR Capital securities fraud lawsuit is a federal securities class action alleging that FS KKR Capital Corp.

As the truth emerged through a series of disclosures - including an August 6, 2025 report revealing a 6.2% decline in net asset value, a $474 million drop in total fair value of investments, and a loss per share of negative $0.75, followed by a February 25, 2026 announcement of further NAV deterioration, an additional $406 million decline in investment fair value, a dividend cut from $0.70 to $0.48 per share, and an acknowledgment that identified problem companies accounted for only 50% of net realized and unrealized losses - FSK's stock price dropped sharply, causing significant losses for investors.

Presidio deploys Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA at Equinix data center in complementary, partner-led lab environment

Endorsed architectures and live testing lab deliver faster path for enterprises from pilot to production AI

, /PRNewswire/ -- Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), the world's digital infrastructure company®, today unveiled an expanded collaboration with Cisco and NVIDIA to accelerate enterprise AI. Working with its partners, the company will enable customers to deploy the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA across its global network of high-performance data centers, providing customers with standardized AI factory blueprints and automation that simplify deployments.

Equinix is also partnering with Presidio to deploy their Programmable AI Technology Hub (P.A.T.H.) Lab. The lab will give customers a real-world environment inside Equinix data centers to test, validate and refine AI infrastructure before enterprise-wide rollout.

"The success of enterprise AI starts with its physical foundation," said Gordon Mackintosh, Senior Vice President, Global Partner Sales and Ecosystems at Equinix. "Our collaboration with Cisco, NVIDIA and Presidio delivers the infrastructure AI workloads demand while giving customers a place to prove it out before they scale. This is how AI shifts from pilot to production with the speed, simplicity and certainty businesses need."

By bringing the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA into its global data centers, Equinix is making it easier for customers to access the interconnection density, specialized power and advanced cooling customers and partners need to deploy the latest AI hardware and software at scale. These deployments are based on NVIDIA reference architectures that are purpose-built to reflect how enterprises buy and deploy technology: through trusted partners and on infrastructure platforms they already rely on.

"As agentic AI reshapes the industry, long-term success belongs to partner ecosystems that can adapt and innovate as rapidly as the technology itself. Our collaboration with Equinix, Presidio and NVIDIA to deliver the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA illustrates how a trusted agile partner ecosystem can deliver secure, flexible AI infrastructure quickly to meet customers' needs," said Cassie Roach, Global Vice President of Cloud and AI Infrastructure Partner Sales at Cisco.

Bringing these architectures to life in a real-world environment, Presidio, a leading global technology services and solutions provider, has partnered with Equinix to develop the Programmable AI Technology Hub (P.A.T.H.) Lab. Built on Cisco's Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA, the lab is a fully integrated, production-grade AI environment purpose-built for enterprises to test, validate, and refine their AI strategies before committing to full-scale deployment. Through the combined expertise of Presidio, Cisco, NVIDIA and Equinix, enterprises gain access to turnkey AI infrastructure proven to work across hybrid workloads, spanning public cloud, neocloud, on-premises, and colocation environments.

"One of the most important shifts we've seen in the last 18 months is that AI success is no longer about finding the most powerful model," said Tim McHugh, VP Partnerships & Alliances at Presidio. "It's about building the infrastructure that can run AI everywhere it matters, without sacrificing data sovereignty or control. Equinix Distributed AI™ is the foundation that makes that possible at global scale, and P.A.T.H. is how Presidio brings that capability directly to our clients. We're not asking them to take our word for it -- we're putting them inside a production-grade environment and showing them what distributed AI infrastructure actually looks like in practice."

New presence will support managed hosting and low-latency connectivity to BME Exchange ahead of BME’s planned migration to MD6

RESTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In preparation for BME (Bolsas y Mercados Españoles) migrating its matching engines from BME’s Las Rozas data center to the Equinix MD6 colocation data center in Madrid, Waypoint Trading Solutions, a TNS business, is expanding its European exchange footprint with the launch of services in MD6.

“We are delighted to support BME’s planned migration and further enhance our European exchange connectivity and managed hosting capabilities,” said Jeff Mezger, Vice President of Product Management, Waypoint Trading Solutions.

Share This latest development will support managed hosting and ultra-low latency Layer 1 exchange connectivity to BME Exchange. The relocation of BME’s matching engines to MD6 in Q2 2027 will place trading firms in close proximity to the core Spanish trading platform, helping to minimize network latency.

Extending Waypoint’s presence in Europe means customers will have continued ultra-low latency Layer 1 exchange connectivity to all key European financial hubs, complementing its colocation services in London, Frankfurt and other major exchanges. It enables firms, including market data vendors and exchange members, to access Spanish equities and derivatives markets for both market data and order entry. Waypoint will also offer Layer 3 services in MD6.

“We are delighted to support BME’s planned migration and further enhance our European exchange connectivity and managed hosting capabilities,” said Jeff Mezger, Vice President of Product Management, Waypoint Trading Solutions. “Our focus remains on supporting connectivity globally via our low latency backbone specifically engineered to minimize network latency and maximize resiliency and uptime.”

“Waypoint’s presence in MD6 will give customers direct access to BME Exchange from a key European financial hub,” said Santiago Ximenez Rodriguez, Head Data & Connectivity, Exchanges, SIX. “We welcome the expansion of connectivity options that support efficient access to Spanish markets.”

This deployment is part of Waypoint’s ongoing commitment to providing colocation services within Europe, which already includes BME, SIX Swiss Exchange, CBOE Europe, Deutsche Boerse, Euronext, LME, Nasdaq Nordic and LSE data centers. In 2022, Waypoint announced its managed hosting and colocation access in the BME data center and last year launched services in the Equinix ZH4 colocation data center in Zurich, enabling managed hosting and ultra-low latency Layer 1 exchange connectivity to SIX Swiss Exchange.

Adding this new colocation in Madrid means Waypoint customers can benefit from direct access to a key financial hub with over 85,000 equities, fixed income and derivative instruments, as well as an expanding ecosystem of growth market listings and securitized derivatives that provide access to one of Europe’s most dynamic investment landscapes.

As both a registered data vendor and application service provider with SIX, Waypoint offers customers a managed alternative to building and maintaining extensive specialist infrastructure in-house, enabling trading firms to focus internal resources on their core business.

About Waypoint Trading Solutions

Waypoint Trading Solutions, a TNS business, is a global provider of mission-critical trading infrastructure. Built on the combined strengths of TNS’ Financial Markets business and Radianz, Waypoint supports financial institutions globally across the full trading infrastructure stack - combining the world’s largest financial extranet, a managed low-latency platform with global hosting and exchange access, and fully managed market data operations.

About CEL-SCI Corporation

CEL-SCI believes that boosting a patient’s immune system before surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy have damaged it, should provide the greatest possible impact on survival. Multikine is designed to help the immune system "target" the tumor at a time when the immune system is still relatively intact and thereby thought to be better able to mount an attack on the tumor.

Multikine (Leukocyte Interleukin, Injection), given right after diagnosis and before surgery, has been dosed in over 740 patients and received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for neoadjuvant therapy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma (cancer) of the head and neck.

The Company has operations in Vienna, Virginia, and near/in Baltimore, Maryland.

Element Solutions Inc (ESI) Presents at 3rd Annual Materials of the Future Conference Transcript

Duolingo is rated Strong Buy, trading at 12x earnings and a 0.28x forward PEG, with robust free cash flow and no debt. DUOL's DAUs have grown 350% post-ChatGPT, reaching 56.5 million, with 22% conversion to paid users and a powerful, sticky brand. Despite sector-wide SaaS drawdown, DUOL's AI-driven growth, 35% free cash flow margins, and a $1.1 billion cash position underscore its asymmetrical risk/reward profile.

On Monday, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) proposed removing the coverage with evidence development (CED) requirement for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) in patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis.

William Blair on Tuesday wrote, "…this is a positive outcome for Edwards and largely validates the thesis we laid out following the NCD opening in December."

CMS Proposes Changes To TAVR Coverage RequirementsAortic stenosis is a narrowing or stiffening of the heart's aortic valve. It restricts blood flow from the heart's main pumping chamber to the rest of the body.

The agency also proposed expanding TAVR coverage to patients with asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis under CED and updating coverage criteria for pre-procedure evaluations, intraoperative standards, and operator and hospital volume requirements.

Analyst Views CMS Proposal As Positive For Edwards LifesciencesCoverage with CED appears appropriate, given that asymptomatic severe aortic stenosis patients represent an early-stage treatment population, and continued data collection should benefit stakeholders across the healthcare system.

Expanded Coverage Could Support TAVR AdoptionWilliam Blair also noted that Edwards currently has the only FDA-approved TAVR device indicated for asymptomatic severe AS patients.

If coverage is included in the final NCD, it would provide the company with a meaningful competitive advantage.

Implementation of the NCD could catalyze TAVR adoption by simplifying the treatment pathway and enabling patients to access therapy sooner.

William Blair maintains the Outperform rating for the structural heart company.

EW Stock Price Activity: Edwards Lifesciences shares were up 3.74% at $88.65 at the time of publication on Tuesday, according to Benzinga Pro data.

Investors interested in Computer and Technology stocks should always be looking to find the best-performing companies in the group. Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC - Free Report) is a stock that can certainly grab the attention of many investors, but do its recent returns compare favorably to the sector as a whole? By taking a look at the stock's year-to-date performance in comparison to its Computer and Technology peers, we might be able to answer that question.

Lattice Semiconductor is one of 592 companies in the Computer and Technology group. The Computer and Technology group currently sits at #2 within the Zacks Sector Rank. The Zacks Sector Rank considers 16 different groups, measuring the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks within the sector to gauge the strength of each group.

The Zacks Rank is a proven model that highlights a variety of stocks with the right characteristics to outperform the market over the next one to three months. The system emphasizes earnings estimate revisions and favors companies with improving earnings outlooks. Lattice Semiconductor is currently sporting a Zacks Rank of #1 (Strong Buy).

Over the past 90 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for LSCC's full-year earnings has moved 13.2% higher. This means that analyst sentiment is stronger and the stock's earnings outlook is improving.

Based on the most recent data, LSCC has returned 102.5% so far this year. Meanwhile, the Computer and Technology sector has returned an average of 20.2% on a year-to-date basis. This shows that Lattice Semiconductor is outperforming its peers so far this year.

AXT (AXTI - Free Report) is another Computer and Technology stock that has outperformed the sector so far this year. Since the beginning of the year, the stock has returned 577.3%.

In AXT's case, the consensus EPS estimate for the current year increased 400% over the past three months. The stock currently has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Looking more specifically, Lattice Semiconductor belongs to the Electronics - Semiconductors industry, which includes 47 individual stocks and currently sits at #58 in the Zacks Industry Rank. On average, stocks in this group have gained 59.6% this year, meaning that LSCC is performing better in terms of year-to-date returns. AXT is also part of the same industry.

Lattice Semiconductor and AXT could continue their solid performance, so investors interested in Computer and Technology stocks should continue to pay close attention to these stocks.

Elastic Named a Strong Performer in Extended Detection And Response Platforms, Q2 2026 Elastic (NYSE: ESTC), the Search AI Company, today announced that it has been named a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave™: Extended Detection And Response Platforms, Q2 2026. The report recognized Elastic Security’s SIEM-replacement capabilities, open data architecture, AI innovation, and endpoint protection. Access the complimentary report here.

Elastic Security is an agentic security operations platform that unifies SIEM, XDR, and native automation. Elastic’s native endpoint protection offers tangible efficacy against real-world attack scenarios. Elastic Security is the only vendor to achieve 14 consecutive months of 100% rates in AV-Comparatives’ Malware and Real-World Protection Tests. The Forrester Wave assessment notes that Elastic’s strategy envisions an open, agentic SOC that will automate operations.

Elastic’s vendor profile in the report states the following:

Elastic’s SIEM-replacement features are strong, as it ingests a wide range of telemetry at scale, including from its endpoint agent, enabling security teams to correlate across cloud, endpoint, identity, application, and network data without siloed tools. Its open data formats and core engines, strong training content, and flexible data management make it heavily customizable. Flexibility is a differentiator: Elastic is a good fit for organizations looking for– and that have the resources to support– a tool built for maximum flexibility across data ingestion, analytics, and AI. Security teams can ingest telemetry from virtually any source, tailor detections to their unique environment and risk profile, and build workflows aligned with existing processes rather than adapting to rigid platform constraints. Detection engineers can move faster, reduce vendor lock-in, and create security operations experiences that fit their organization. Open, agentic SOC automates operations: Elastic demonstrates a strong commitment to innovation, with a focus on AI features, such as Attack Discovery and Automatic Migration. Attack Discovery correlates related alerts into higher-confidence attack narratives so analysts focus on real incidents rather than undifferentiated alert queues, while Automatic Migration moves dashboards and detection rules from legacy SIEMs into Elastic without rewriting rules. "We believe every security team deserves access to proven endpoint capability, regardless of budget or team size," said Mike Nichols, general manager, Security, Elastic. "This Forrester recognition validates what our customers already know: the endpoint detection included in our agentic security platform works. No separate license. No add-on. Enterprise-grade protection, accessible to everyone."

Elastic Security runs on the same Elasticsearch platform as observability and search workloads, so security teams can correlate across operational and security telemetry without moving data across tools. The Elastic Security MCP App enables alert triaging, threat hunting, and case management directly within the tools analysts already use, including Claude Desktop, Claude.ai, VS Code Copilot, and Cursor.

ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), an original innovator in global payments technology, today announced that Rabobank, a leading Dutch bank and one of Europe’s largest financial institutions, is advancing the migration of the Netherlands’ most widely used payment method, iDEAL, to Wero. Wero is the European Payments Initiative (EPI)-backed digital payment solution enabling real-time account-to-account payments across participating European banks.

Rabobank’s Wero payments are processed and powered by ACI’s Real-Time Payments Processing technology, delivering the scale, resilience and interoperability required for pan-European instant payments. The ACI platform provides the high availability needed for this transformational project. By orchestrating payment flows, liquidity management and real-time clearing across SEPA Instant rails, ACI is helping Rabobank seamlessly transition iDEAL into a true real-time environment while ensuring consistent performance, security and regulatory compliance as volumes accelerate.

iDEAL is the backbone of Dutch digital commerce, used for more than 70% of online transactions and billions of payments each year. While it provides consumers and merchants with instant confirmation at checkout, the underlying payments have traditionally been processed on standard SEPA Credit Transfer (SCT) rails. Rabobank is now changing that, moving iDEAL volumes onto SEPA Instant Credit Transfer (SCT Inst) infrastructure powered by ACI, enabling true real-time, 24/7 clearing and settlement.

As one of the founding banks behind iDEAL, Rabobank plays a central role in scaling this transition, effectively moving a large share of everyday payments in the Netherlands onto instant payment rails. The migration is expected to complete by the end of 2027. Rabobank, alongside other EPI shareholders, committed to the transition as part of the European Payments Initiative (EPI), which aims to unify fragmented national payment schemes into a single European solution and reduce reliance on global card networks.

This shift marks a critical step in one of Europe’s largest payment transformations, turning a national payment system into a pan-European, real-time digital solution. Through Wero, consumers and businesses will be able to make instant account-to-account payments not only online, but also in-store and between individuals, across borders.

In parallel, Rabobank is extending instant payments capabilities beyond checkout by routing Request to Pay messaging through Wero. This enables a broader set of instant payment use cases, from bill payments to subscriptions and merchant-initiated transactions, where speed, certainty, and immediate fund availability are critical.

“Wero represents the next evolution of how people pay in Europe, bringing together the trust and ubiquity of iDEAL with instant, pan-European capabilities,” said Patrick Kipping, area lead, payments transaction processing, Rabobank. “Migrating iDEAL at this scale is a significant operational step, and an important milestone in delivering instant, seamless payments for our customers.”

The transition comes as Europe enters a new phase of real-time payments adoption. With the Instant Payment Regulation (IPR) now in force, banks are turning their focus to scaling performance, resilience and instant payments processing at national volumes.

“Rabobank is moving one of Europe’s most successful national payment systems into a true instant payments environment, at scale,” said Craig Ramsey, global head of account-to-account Payments, ACI Worldwide. “This is exactly what the shift to instant payments is about: not just faster payments but transforming how entire economies move money. ACI’s platform is designed to manage that level of volume, resilience, and complexity.”

The Netherlands is the first major market to transition their successful, local iDEAL payments solution to Wero, positioning it at the forefront of Europe’s shift toward instant, account-to-account payments. The speed and stability of this migration will help set the benchmark for Wero’s broader rollout across Europe through 2027.

About ACI Worldwide

ACI Worldwide, an original innovator in global payments technology, delivers transformative software solutions that power intelligent payments orchestration in real time so banks, billers and merchants can drive growth, while continuously modernizing their payment infrastructures, simply and securely. With nearly 50 years of trusted payments expertise, we combine our global footprint with a local presence to offer enhanced payment experiences to stay ahead of constantly changing payment challenges and opportunities.

NEW YORK, June 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pomerantz LLP is investigating claims on behalf of investors of AECOM (“AECOM” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ACM).  Such investors are advised to contact Danielle Peyton at [email protected] or 646-581-9980, ext. 7980.

The investigation concerns whether AECOM and certain of its officers and/or directors have engaged in securities fraud or other unlawful business practices. 

[Click here for information about joining the class action]

On May 11, 2026, AECOM announced its second quarter fiscal 2026 results, including, in relevant part, that quarterly operating cash flow was $4 million, down 98% year over year, and adjusted free cash flow which swung to negative $27 million.  In the accompanying earnings call, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Gaurav Kapoor, revealed that “longer-than-anticipated claim resolution on certain projects” among other things, impacted the quarter.  Kapoor further stated these were “projects we bid in fiscal year 2019 and 2020, two projects” for two clients, and that “individual claims for these two clients have gone through the resolution process.  And we’ve been successful on each one of them.  But it’s just been very slow and dragged out on the resolution process.  That is what has surprised us as to how long the process has taken.”  Then, on May 12, 2026, AECOM filed its quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which showed that significant claims recorded in contract assets and other non-current assets were approximately $680 million as of March 31, 2026, compared with approximately $400 million as of September 30, 2025. 

Following these disclosures, AECOM’s stock price fell $9.55 per share, or 12%, to close at $69.95 per share on May 12, 2026.

Pomerantz LLP, with offices in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Tel Aviv, is acknowledged as one of the premier firms in the areas of corporate, securities, and antitrust class litigation. Founded by the late Abraham L. Pomerantz, known as the dean of the class action bar, Pomerantz pioneered the field of securities class actions. Today, more than 85 years later, Pomerantz continues in the tradition he established, fighting for the rights of the victims of securities fraud, breaches of fiduciary duty, and corporate misconduct.

Issued on behalf of Greenland Mines Ltd

With its latest investment, a Nasdaq-listed developer is betting that owning the processing and conversion layer — not just the rock in the ground — is where Western critical-materials security will be won.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary — The race to secure critical minerals for the West has, until recently, been told almost entirely as a mining story: who can dig the rare earths, the magnet metals, the battery inputs out of the ground in jurisdictions that are not China. But a more sophisticated understanding is taking hold — that the real chokepoint is rarely the rock itself. It is the midstream: the refining, processing, and conversion capacity that turns raw ore into usable materials. China's dominance of critical minerals is, above all, a dominance of processing. And so the most strategically interesting companies are increasingly those moving to own not just deposits, but the industrial machinery that gives those deposits value.

Companies mentioned: Greenland Mines Ltd (Nasdaq: GRML), MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP), Critical Metals Corp. (Nasdaq: CRML), Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU), NioCorp Developments Ltd. (Nasdaq: NB)

That is precisely the shift Greenland Mines Ltd (Nasdaq: GRML) signaled with its latest move. On June 16, 2026, the company announced a strategic share-exchange investment in AnorTech Inc. (TSX Venture: ANOR) (OTCQB: ANORF), a Greenland-focused technology and resource developer advancing sustainable alumina, high-purity alumina, and CO2-free cement from its wholly owned Gronne Bjerg anorthosite project. The deal gives Greenland Mines an initial 9.9% stake, with an option to increase to as much as 19.9%, and — more importantly — extends the company from upstream resource exposure toward the midstream processing segment it sees as the next frontier of value capture in its broader "North Atlantic Critical Metals Corridor" strategy.

The Move Into the Midstream
The logic Greenland Mines articulated is the heart of the story. "This investment expands Greenland Mines beyond upstream resource exposure and moves us closer to the midstream segment of the critical materials value chain, where strategic bottlenecks and value capture increasingly sit," said Bo Møller Stensgaard, Ph.D., President of Greenland Mines. He framed it as a direct extension of the company's corridor vision — linking advantaged Greenland resource assets with industrial processing opportunities in allied jurisdictions such as Iceland or North America — "while adding exposure to sustainable alumina and other advanced materials that we believe can become strategically important to Western supply chains."

The target is differentiated. AnorTech is developing a proprietary process to produce sustainable smelter-grade alumina and high-purity alumina from anorthosite — a process designed to eliminate the bauxite-residue tailings that plague conventional alumina production and instead generate saleable byproducts such as amorphous silica and calcium-based industrial materials. The company filed a U.S. provisional patent covering the process in February 2025, and has extended the platform into adjacent product lines including CO2-free refractory cement, 3D-printable cement, and alumina-based catalysts. To support pilot-plant testing, AnorTech has shipped a bulk sample of crushed Gronne Bjerg anorthosite to Ontario, Canada, and is advancing its alumina and cement R&D programs from that material. Alumina and aluminum, Greenland Mines notes, sit at the center of multiple industrial and security-relevant value chains — chains whose conventional supply remains exposed to concentrated sourcing, logistics risk, and mounting environmental pressure.

There is a notable historical thread connecting the two companies. AnorTech previously owned and operated the Sarfartoq rare earths project — the same Greenland Nd-Pr asset Greenland Mines recently agreed to acquire — and AnorTech President Jim Cambon pointed to that lineage in welcoming the deal, citing his company's 24 years of Greenland development experience and its "leading-edge alumina technologies." In other words, this is not a cold transaction between strangers; it deepens a relationship between teams with overlapping Greenland history.

The Platform Behind the Headline
To understand why the AnorTech stake matters, it helps to see the platform Greenland Mines is assembling. The Nasdaq-listed company — which adopted the GRML ticker in March 2026 — now describes itself as spanning two operating divisions: a mining business and a biotech business. The mining division is anchored by the company's flagship Skaergaard Project in southeast Greenland, one of the largest undeveloped palladium-gold-platinum deposits in the world, with a 2022 NI 43-101 mineral resource (by SLR Consulting) of 25.4 million ounces of palladium-equivalent and 23.5 million ounces of gold-equivalent across the indicated and inferred categories, and additional by-product optionality in vanadium, gallium, iron, and titanium. The company holds an 80% interest in Skaergaard and is preparing a major 2026 field campaign including resource-expansion drilling and a bulk sample for processing-flowsheet development.

Layered onto that precious- and critical-metals foundation is the company's move into magnet rare earths through its agreement to acquire the Sarfartoq Nd-Pr project in southwest Greenland — neodymium and praseodymium being the workhorse elements of the permanent magnets that drive electric vehicles, wind turbines, and defense systems. Greenland Mines frames the AnorTech investment as the same strategic logic applied again: securing exposure not only to the rock in the ground, but to the processing, conversion, and industrial ecosystem that ultimately determines who captures the value. The throughline is the North Atlantic Critical Metals Corridor — a vision of moving bulk material from southwest Greenland by sea for refining or industrial conversion in Iceland, where the company says it has been advancing industrial site access, brownfield processing optionality, deep-port logistics, and renewable-power partnerships.

Why Greenland, and Why Now
The macro backdrop gives the strategy its urgency. Critical minerals — rare earths above all — have become one of the defining geopolitical flashpoints of the decade, with China controlling the overwhelming majority of global processing capacity and repeatedly demonstrating a willingness to use export controls as leverage. Western governments have responded with stockpiles, funding programs, and a scramble to build mine-to-magnet supply chains outside Chinese control. Greenland, with its extraordinary mineral endowment, tidewater access, and strategic position in the North Atlantic, has moved to the center of that conversation — and a Nasdaq-listed developer assembling advantaged Greenland assets, paired with allied-jurisdiction processing, is positioned squarely in the path of that capital and policy attention.

The Gronne Bjerg project illustrates the appeal. Located roughly 80 kilometers from Nuuk on an open-tidewater fjord and adjacent to strong hydroelectric potential, it offers a rare combination of resource quality, marine access, and low-carbon power optionality — exactly the ingredients a future North Atlantic processing chain would require. Greenland Mines sees the combination of Nuuk-fjord logistics, Greenland resource quality, and Icelandic industrial infrastructure as a potentially powerful foundation for low-carbon alumina and industrial-materials development.

The Western Critical-Minerals Names Investors Are Watching
Greenland Mines sits within a cohort of Western-aligned critical-minerals companies racing to build supply and, increasingly, processing capacity outside China. Looking at a few of the most prominent public names helps frame both the opportunity and the scale of the competition.

MP Materials Corp. (NYSE: MP) is the clearest reference point for the integrated, mine-to-magnet vision Greenland Mines is pursuing. Operating the Mountain Pass mine in California — the only large-scale integrated rare-earth operation in the United States — and a magnet-manufacturing facility in Texas where it began producing NdFeB magnets in late 2025, MP has become the bellwether for Western rare-earth independence, backed by government and commercial partnerships. It exemplifies the upstream-plus-midstream model, at a scale and stage far beyond an early-stage developer, that gives the processing-ownership thesis its credibility.

Critical Metals Corp. (Nasdaq: CRML) is perhaps the most thematically precise comparison, because it too is built around Greenland. The company is advancing the Tanbreez rare-earth project in southern Greenland — one of the largest rare-earth deposits in the world — alongside its Wolfsberg lithium project in Europe. As a fellow Western-aligned developer betting on Greenland's critical-minerals endowment, Critical Metals offers a direct window into how public markets are valuing the Greenland critical-minerals thesis that Greenland Mines is also pursuing.

Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) approaches the theme from the processing side. Best known as a leading U.S. uranium producer, Energy Fuels has built rare-earth and critical-minerals processing capability at its White Mesa mill, advancing toward commercial production of separated rare-earth oxides. It is a useful illustration of the midstream-processing angle Greenland Mines is now reaching toward — a company turning a milling and processing asset into a Western critical-materials conversion hub.

NioCorp Developments Ltd. (Nasdaq: NB) rounds out the group as an advanced-stage U.S. critical-minerals developer. Its Elk Creek project in Nebraska is designed to produce niobium, scandium, and titanium, with rare-earth optionality, positioning it as another Western-aligned answer to concentrated foreign supply. NioCorp illustrates the long, capital-intensive road from a defined critical-minerals resource toward production — the same path Greenland Mines is navigating with its own portfolio. These companies are referenced to illustrate the sector and do not imply any partnership, endorsement, affiliation, or comparable financial performance; they differ widely in size, stage, and commodity mix, and Greenland Mines is among the earlier-stage, pre-production names.

The Risks Behind the Vision
The strategic narrative is compelling, but the risks are substantial and should be weighed carefully. The AnorTech transaction is an initial 9.9% stake — a minority position, with the larger 19.9% exposure contingent on an option — and it remains subject to customary closing conditions, including TSX Venture Exchange acceptance, with closing expected by the end of June. AnorTech's sustainable-alumina and HPA process is still at the patent-filing and pilot-preparation stage; commercialization of novel processing technology is difficult, capital-intensive, and far from guaranteed. The North Atlantic Critical Metals Corridor, for all its strategic logic, remains a vision under construction rather than operating infrastructure.

Greenland Mines itself is an early-stage, pre-production company. Its flagship Skaergaard resource, however large, has not advanced to a completed feasibility study or production decision, and its Sarfartoq acquisition remains subject to closing, including government approval. The company carries the structural complexity of operating both mining and biotech divisions, depends on continued access to capital to fund its ambitions, and — as it has disclosed — has been working to regain compliance with Nasdaq's minimum bid-price requirement within an extension period. Greenland project development also faces real logistical, permitting, environmental, and execution challenges given the Arctic operating environment. Investors should weigh the genuine strategic positioning against these meaningful, well-documented risks.

Why the Trajectory Still Matters
For all those caveats, the direction Greenland Mines is moving aligns precisely with where the critical-minerals conversation is heading. The recognition that midstream processing — not just mining — is the true strategic chokepoint is reshaping how governments and investors think about supply-chain security. Companies that can pair advantaged Western-aligned resources with processing and conversion capability, and do so with a credible low-carbon and allied-jurisdiction story, are positioning themselves at the most defensible point in the value chain. Greenland Mines is assembling exactly that combination — precious metals, magnet rare earths, and now industrial critical materials and midstream optionality — under a single Nasdaq-listed platform.

Whether the company can convert that vision into producing assets, operating processing capacity, and durable value will be decided over years, through drilling, feasibility work, pilot plants, permits, and financing. The path is long and the risks are real. But the question Greenland Mines is organizing itself around — not merely who controls the rock, but who controls the processing that gives the rock its value — is exactly the question the West is racing to answer. For investors tracking where critical-minerals security is headed, the company's push from the mine toward the midstream is a telling marker of the broader shift.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Robbins LLP reminds stockholders that a class action was filed on behalf of all investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Badger Meter, Inc. (NYSE: BMI) common stock between April 18, 2024 and April 16, 2026. Badger Meter manufactures and sells water measurement and management products.

For more information, submit a form, email attorney Aaron Dumas, Jr., or give us a call at (800) 350-6003.

What is the class period? April 18, 2024 - April 16, 2026

What are the allegations? Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Badger Meter, Inc. (BMI) Concealed Weakening Demand and Deteriorating Near-Term Order Trends

According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants told investors that Badger Meter's strong financial results reflected "ongoing favorable industry trends," "secular growth drivers," and "solid operating execution." They likewise touted "strong" demand and said they were seeing "robust order pacing and a strong bid pipeline that positions us well for continued sales and earnings growth," and that Badger Meter possessed a "long runway" for growth.

In truth, rather than reflecting durable, demand-driven growth, Badger Meter's financial results were driven by the Company's practice of pulling forward customer orders, which concealed weakening demand and deteriorating near-term order trends.

The truth was revealed to investors over the course of a series of disappointing quarterly financial reports between July 2025 and April 2026. In the last disclosure on April 17, 2026, Badger Meter reported disappointing 1Q 2026 financial results including that total sales were "9% lower than the prior year[]," "[u]tility water sales declined 10% year-over-year," "[o]perating earnings of $35.2 million, with an operating margin of 17.4%, compared to operating earnings of $49.4 million and an operating margin of 22.2% in the prior year," and "[d]iluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.93, down from $1.30 in the first quarter of 2025." On this news, the price of Badger Meter stock fell $36.75 per share, more than 24%, from $152.29 per share on April 16, 2026, to $115.54 per share on April 17, 2026.
