DEXE spadl zhruba o 85 % z červencového maxima 48,89 USD poté, co dvě peněženky spojené s projektem poslaly na Binance tokeny v hodnotě 6 milionů USD nebo více. Objem obchodů při výprodeji vyskočil téměř o 300 %.
DEXE fell roughly 85% from its July 13 all-time high of $48.89, trading near $4-5. Two wallets tied to the DeXe project deposited a combined $6 million or more in DEXE to Binance shortly before the collapse. Trading volume jumped nearly 300% during the sell-off, pointing to concentrated selling rather than a market-wide event. No hack or exploit has surfaced, but traders are calling the move a rug pull. DEXE, the governance token of the DeXe Protocol, lost most of its value in a matter of hours on July 22 after two wallets connected to the project sent a combined $6 million or more in tokens to Binance. The token had rocketed from $1.80 in February to nearly $48 in early July, then reversed just as fast, dropping to around $4 and wiping out roughly 85% of its value from the peak. The speed of the collapse, paired with the size of the deposits, has traders across crypto forums asking whether this was an orderly correction or an inside job.
A ChangeNOW Listing Sparked an 18x Squeeze in Four Days DeXe Protocol builds no-code infrastructure for launching decentralized autonomous organizations, letting communities manage treasuries and voting on-chain without writing custom code. The token itself had traded quietly for years before a July 9 listing on the instant-swap platform ChangeNOW gave it fresh exposure. Within a day, DEXE broke out of a bullish pennant pattern, a setup traders watch for continuation after a sharp initial move. That breakout ran straight into a wall of short positions built up during the prior grind, and the forced buying from traders covering those shorts added fuel to a rally that was already accelerating. By July 13, DEXE had printed a record $48.89, an 18-fold gain in about five months.
On-chain activity backed up the price action rather than contradicting it. Network growth hit one of its largest single-day spikes of the year, with more than 160 new wallets created, while whale transactions above $100,000 climbed to their fourth-highest daily count in 2026. Fresh wallets don’t show up like that on their own. Someone was buying, and buying hard.
Two Wallets Sent $6 Million to Binance Hours Before the Drop On-chain data shows the deposits originated from two Gnosis Safe multisig wallets, a structure typically used by project teams and treasuries rather than individual holders. One safe moved 371,309 DEXE, worth close to $3.9 million, into an intermediate wallet roughly 14 hours before the crash, which then forwarded $3.68 million of that to a Binance hot wallet. A second safe sent 253,690 DEXE, worth about $2.66 million, through the same pattern, landing $2.51 million on Binance shortly after. Combined, the two transfers put roughly $6.2 million of DEXE onto the exchange within hours of the collapse. Team wallets don’t move that fast for no reason.
The price action lines up with that reading. DEXE bled out in stages rather than falling in one clean drop: first a slide of roughly 10%, then a pullback near 30%, then a steeper plunge of around 58%, before a final capitulation leg pushed it into the $4 handle. Trading volume surged close to 290% versus recent averages during the worst of the move, confirming that this was a concentrated liquidation event and not gradual profit-taking.
Date Price Level Event July 9 ~$8 ChangeNOW listing sparks initial buying July 10 Breakout Pennant breakout triggers short squeeze July 13 $48.89 All-time high printed July 22 (morning) ~$36 to $4.50 Team-linked wallets deposit $6M+ to Binance, price collapses July 22 (current) ~$4.80 Attempting to stabilize, still down over 85% from peak RSI Near 30 and a Flattening MACD Point to a Slowing Selloff Looking at the 30-minute chart, DEXE opened the session near $36 and pushed briefly to almost $50 before the selling took over completely, dropping the price to around $4.80. The relative strength index, a gauge that measures whether a token has been bought or sold too aggressively over the recent period, sank to around 30, which is deep in oversold territory. A reading this low usually signals that sellers have pushed the move further than fundamentals justify in the short term, though in a post-blow-off collapse like this one, oversold readings can persist for a while rather than triggering an immediate bounce.
The MACD indicator, which tracks the gap between two moving averages to flag momentum shifts, has curled back toward positive territory after bottoming out around minus six, suggesting the pace of the decline is slowing even though the broader trend remains firmly bearish. For now, price is holding just under $5. That’s the line I’m watching. Lose it on a daily close and there’s very little chart structure left to slow the next leg down. Hold it, and this starts looking like a bounce setup rather than a falling knife.
Santiment Flagged DEXE’s Selloff Risk a Day Before It Hit The pattern is familiar to anyone who’s traded through a few of these cycles. A listing catalyst turns into a squeeze, the squeeze turns into a chart everyone suddenly has an opinion on, and the people who bought at $8 start looking for buyers at $40. Here, those buyers were retail traders who caught the July euphoria. The wallets selling into them belonged to the project itself.

👍 Uniswap and Curve have just broken their 2026-high in exchange outflows, with about 8.4M $UNI and 9.8M $CRV leaving exchanges in just 24 hours. This reduces near-term sell pressure just as Uniswap’s fee and burn narrative, Robinhood Chain… pic.twitter.com/ZGMPu2CYpn

Santiment flagged this exact risk a day before the crash, warning that DEXE and INJ carried elevated selloff risk after large token volumes moved onto exchanges. The warning noted that DEXE still carries a legitimate governance-token utility story, but that large exchange inflows leave any rally fragile until that supply gets absorbed by the market. INJ, by contrast, has additional support from regulated-access developments including Binance.US spot trading and CFTC-regulated futures, something DEXE lacks.
Whether the Binance Wallets Are Done Selling Is the Open Question For DEXE holders, the immediate question is whether the wallets that deposited to Binance have finished selling or whether more supply is still sitting on the exchange waiting to hit the market. Call it what you want. A rug pull, technically, means the team drains liquidity and disappears, and nobody’s disappeared here. What actually happened looks more like insiders cashing out into a blow-off top than an exit scam. Either label lands the same way for anyone who bought near $48.
The DeXe team has not issued a public statement addressing the wallet deposits or the crash as of this writing. Traders holding the token or considering an entry should treat the “rug pull” label circulating on social media as an accusation rather than a confirmed fact, while also recognizing that a governance token with an unclear maximum supply and a codebase that has seen little recent development carries real structural risk independent of this single event.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates four times.
Waste Connections, which belongs to the Zacks Waste Removal Services industry, posted revenues of $2.56 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.06%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $2.41 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Waste Connections shares have lost about 4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.7%.
What's Next for Waste Connections?While Waste Connections has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Waste Connections was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $1.51 on $2.59 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $5.49 on $10 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Waste Removal Services is currently in the top 38% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, Select Water Solutions, Inc. (WTTR - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026.

Select Water Solutions, Inc.'s revenues are expected to be $365.9 million, up 0.5% from the year-ago quarter.
SpaceX plánuje na 23. července 13. testovací let Starshipu po několika zrušených pokusech. Úspěch je klíčový pro komercializaci rakety a další růst firmy.
SpaceX (SPCX -6.70%) is once again looking to launch a test flight of its Starship megarocket. Investors should be paying very close attention, as the impact on SpaceX’s stock price should be meaningful.
After several aborted attempts, the company is looking to complete the rocket’s thirteenth test flight on July 23. As with most SpaceX launches, the attempt will be livestreamed via the company’s website.
“The booster’s primary test objective will be executing a successful launch, ascent, stage separation, boostback burn, and landing burn at an offshore landing point in the Gulf of America,” SpaceX explains. “There have been several modifications to hardware and software to address issues seen on the previous flight.”
The impact of this test flight for SpaceX cannot be overstated. In many ways, SpaceX’s long-term growth plans hinge on the company’s ability to successfully commercialize its Starship rocket.
If you’re a current or potential SpaceX investor, there are two things you need to know.

1. Starship is critical for SpaceX growth plansIn its IPO prospectus filed earlier this year, SpaceX was not shy about predicting its growth potential.
“We believe we have identified the largest actionable total addressable market in human history,” the company boasted. “We estimate that our quantifiable TAM is $28.5 trillion.”
Digging deeper, it may be surprising to learn that SpaceX attributes just $370 billion to what it calls “space-enabled solutions”. That bucket includes the total revenue potential of commercializing its Starship rockets.
With a market cap well above $2 trillion, successfully commercializing rockets may not seem critical to SpaceX’s long-term plan, given its relatively low growth potential. But investors must understand that the success of SpaceX’s Starship rocket will enable other growth opportunities that are much more lucrative long term. In other words, Starship’s value won’t be relegated to payload fees alone.
For example, SpaceX attributes $1.6 trillion of its total addressable market to its Starlink internet service. If successful, its Starship rocket would dramatically increase the number of satellites SpaceX can launch in any given year while also lowering the cost of getting them into space.
In other words, SpaceX’s Starship rocket will increase the odds that SpaceX will be able to realize as much of its claimed $1.6 trillion opportunity as possible.
Meanwhile, SpaceX attributes a massive $26.5 trillion of its total $28.5 trillion addressable market to a single opportunity: AI. While this bucket contains many smaller opportunities, one of SpaceX’s biggest growth catalysts should be the realization of orbital data centers.
Orbital data centers are exactly what they sound like: data centers that operate in space. In space, data centers can take better advantage of solar energy and low ambient temperatures, lowering ongoing operating costs.
There are many technical challenges to getting data centers to operate successfully in space. One of the biggest, however, is simply getting these systems into space economically. If successful, SpaceX’s Starship rocket would meaningfully improve the company’s chances of doing so.

2. Competition for Starship is heating upSpaceX’s rocket program is arguably the most advanced rocket program on the planet. But there’s rising investment across the industry, which will create more competition for SpaceX over the coming months and years.
Government entities like China’s CNSA and India’s ISRO are pursuing their own rocket developments. Meanwhile, private companies, including Blue Origin, Rocket Lab (RKLB +0.91%), and Relativity Space are also aggressively pursuing the development of their own rocket systems.
SpaceX’s rocket program, however, is unique in terms of its vertical integration.
“SpaceX has also effectively achieved a high degree of vertical integration,” observes Government Technology, a public sector magazine. “It owns almost all parts of its supply chain, designing, building, and testing all its major hardware components in-house, with a minimal use of suppliers. That gives it not just control over its hardware but considerably lower costs, and the price tag is the top consideration for launch contracts.”
It’s hard to disagree about SpaceX’s success, both in terms of its launch achievements and its cost competitiveness. But it’s also clear that competition is heating up.
If SpaceX’s upcoming test flight is successful, that will help clear the path for the full commercialization of Starship. In this scenario, SpaceX will once again put itself ahead of the pack in terms of both technology and launch costs. Both of those factors will prove critical to the company’s ability to execute on its long-term growth potential.
SpaceX’s rocket program is arguably the most advanced rocket program on the planet. But there’s rising investment across the industry, a fact that will create more competition for SpaceX over the coming months and years.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai. Bloomberg/Getty Images Imagine making nearly $100 billion extra and dedicating exactly one vague sentence to it. That's just what Google parent Alphabet did in its second quarter earnings report.
The tech giant reported that its "other income" totaled $98 billion in the second quarter, noting it came from unrealized gains on its investments.
Analysts didn't ask Alphabet executives about the gain on its earnings call. Instead, they focused on its rising capital expenditures and position in the AI race. The tech giant's stock closed down about 1.24%.
It's not the first time Alphabet has done this. In April 2025, the company disclosed a similar $8 billion paper gain. Google has no obligation to disclose exactly where those gains come from, and it doesn't.
The gains are almost certainly related to very savvy investments the company has made in companies like SpaceX, Anthropic, and Databricks.
Google was an early SpaceX investor, buying about 7% of the company in 2015. SpaceX also uses Google Cloud for its Starlink service. SpaceX is currently worth about $1.5 trillion dollars since its IPO last month. Google invested in SpaceX when it was worth only about $12 billion — that's a 133x return.
Google is also heavily invested in Anthropic, owning about a 14% stake in the company as of last March, according to filings seen by the New York Times. The AI lab was valued at almost $1 trillion in a massive $65 billion funding round in May. Some investors think it's already worth $1.2 trillion.
Additionally, Google is an investor in Databricks, which was valued at $188 billion in a funding round earlier this month.
Google, SpaceX, Anthropic, and Databricks didn't respond to requests for comment.
Google's investing chops are certainly impressive. But investors are more concerned about Google's own prospects.
The tech giant hiked its capital expenditures to a maximum of $205 billion this year as it races to compete on AI. While Google has strong advantages in distribution and chipmaking, its efforts to build a leading AI model haven't paid off.
It keeps delaying its next big AI chatbot, which some rivals are mocking online.
Still, many analysts remain bullish on Google's fundamentals. Its revenue jumped by almost 25% compared to last year on the back of strong ads and cloud sales, which are also being boosted by AI.
"Another impressive quarter for Google," said Emarketer principal analyst Nate Elliott.

The online retailer's shares have seen an increase of 5.74% over the last month, surpassing the Retail-Wholesale sector's gain of 0.45% and the S&P 500's gain of 0.25%.
The investment community will be closely monitoring the performance of Amazon in its forthcoming earnings report. The company is scheduled to release its earnings on July 30, 2026. In that report, analysts expect Amazon to post earnings of $1.82 per share. This would mark year-over-year growth of 8.33%. Meanwhile, the latest consensus estimate predicts the revenue to be $196.85 billion, indicating a 17.38% increase compared to the same quarter of the previous year.
In terms of the entire fiscal year, the Zacks Consensus Estimates predict earnings of $8.93 per share and a revenue of $826.74 billion, indicating changes of +24.55% and +15.32%, respectively, from the former year.
Investors should also take note of any recent adjustments to analyst estimates for Amazon. These revisions help to show the ever-changing nature of near-term business trends. Hence, positive alterations in estimates signify analyst optimism regarding the business and profitability.
Our research reveals that these estimate alterations are directly linked with the stock price performance in the near future. To utilize this, we have created the Zacks Rank, a proprietary model that integrates these estimate changes and provides a functional rating system.
The Zacks Rank system, which varies between #1 (Strong Buy) and #5 (Strong Sell), carries an impressive track record of exceeding expectations, confirmed by external audits, with stocks at #1 delivering an average annual return of +25% since 1988. The Zacks Consensus EPS estimate has moved 0.49% higher within the past month. At present, Amazon boasts a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy).
In the context of valuation, Amazon is at present trading with a Forward P/E ratio of 27.72. For comparison, its industry has an average Forward P/E of 17.14, which means Amazon is trading at a premium to the group.
Meanwhile, AMZN's PEG ratio is currently 1.6. This metric is used similarly to the famous P/E ratio, but the PEG ratio also takes into account the stock's expected earnings growth rate. As of the close of trade yesterday, the Internet - Commerce industry held an average PEG ratio of 1.12.
The Internet - Commerce industry is part of the Retail-Wholesale sector. This industry currently has a Zacks Industry Rank of 161, which puts it in the bottom 35% of all 250+ industries.
The Zacks Industry Rank gauges the strength of our industry groups by measuring the average Zacks Rank of the individual stocks within the groups. Our research shows that the top 50% rated industries outperform the bottom half by a factor of 2 to 1.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22 (Reuters) - Nvidia (NVDA.O), opens new tab and the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) on Wednesday said that the AI chip leader has donated a supercomputer with its latest chips to a nonprofit linked to the institution.
The NPS is operated by the U.S. Navy and offers masters and doctoral degrees in fields such as computer science and aerospace engineering, among others, with an emphasis on their applications in warfare. Nvidia donated a system based on its GB300 "Grace Blackwell" servers, its most advanced AI computers, to the NPS Foundation, a nonprofit connected to the school.
The Reuters Daily Briefing newsletter provides all the news you need to start your day. Sign up here.
Nvidia and the NPS did not disclose the size of the system, but confirmed it has been installed at the NPS campus in Monterey, California, where Adm. Samuel J. Paparo, commander of U.S. Pacific Command, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang planned to hold an event to announce the system.
While Nvidia's Blackwell chips are planned for use in U.S. government supercomputers built by the U.S. Department of Energy, the donation on Wednesday is the first direct use of Nvidia's most advanced servers by the U.S. military.
“AI will be a backbone of America’s defense,” Huang said in a statement.
Both the U.S. and China are racing to deploy AI for military purposes ranging from developing targeting lists to drone warfare.
“As we modernize our technology, we must also modernize how we educate our leaders,” Adm. Paparo said in a statement. “Access to advanced computing capability means NPS students and faculty understand the opportunities and responsibilities that come with these technologies.”
One of AI's strengths is the ability to work through complex, fast-changing problems much faster than traditional computer simulation techniques.
“Initially, we will need to carefully manage demand as we bring this capability online,” Trenton Hancock, chief information officer at NPS, said in a statement. “But what this system really gives us is the ability to explore more complex, real-world problems, especially those that mirror the challenges our operational fleet faces every day.”

Intel oznámil prvního veřejně jmenovaného externího zákazníka pro své služby foundry: Fortinet využije jeho výrobu pro čip SP6 na procesu Intel 4. Akcie v úterý uzavřely na 105,40 USD po růstu o více než 8 %.
Intel (INTC -2.47%) CEO Lip-Bu Tan told CNBC in May that "multiple customers" were working with the company's foundry business, but that it was his personal policy not to name them. On Tuesday, Intel finally named one.
Cybersecurity specialist Fortinet will use Intel's foundry (the business that manufactures chips for other companies) to produce its next-generation security chip, called the SP6, the two companies announced. The chip will be built on the Intel 4 process, and Fortinet becomes the first named outside customer for the foundry since Tan took over in March 2025.
Investors saw plenty to like. Intel shares jumped more than 8% on Tuesday to close at $105.40, adding to a run that has lifted the stock more than 300% over the past year.
And the timing raises the stakes. Intel reports second-quarter results after the market closes on Thursday, July 23.
So what does the Fortinet deal actually prove -- and what should investors watch for in the report?
Image source: Intel.
A name matters more than the chip Intel's foundry effort has never lacked announcements. What it has lacked is named, committed customers. And Intel has yet to land a major one for its most advanced manufacturing processes, known as 14A and 18A.
That history is what makes the Fortinet deal both encouraging and limited.
On the positive side, a company has now publicly committed a next-generation product to Intel's manufacturing. That is the kind of outside validation the foundry strategy has been missing, and it arguably makes the next customer conversation easier. Fortinet is a credible name, too. The cybersecurity company's dedicated security chips serve a market where demand has been climbing for years.
However, the SP6 will be built on Intel 4. That's an older, less advanced process, introduced in 2023 for the compute tile in Intel's own Core Ultra PC chips -- not the leading-edge technology Intel's turnaround ultimately depends on. A named customer on Intel 4 is progress. It isn't the marquee win that would prove Intel can manufacture the industry's most advanced chips in large quantities.

The economics are still tiny The deal's financial weight is the other reason to stay level-headed. In the first quarter, Intel Foundry generated $5.4 billion of revenue, up 16% year over year. But nearly all of that came from making Intel's own products. External foundry revenue (money from manufacturing chips for outside customers) was just $174 million in the quarter. That's a sliver for a company that posted $13.6 billion in total revenue.
Demand for Intel's own chips, at least, is trending the right way -- even as the company confirmed this week that it is trimming jobs in that same data center unit. First-quarter revenue in the company's data center and artificial intelligence (AI) segment rose 22% year over year, faster than the company's overall 7% growth rate.
"The next wave of AI will bring intelligence closer to the end user," Tan said in the company's first-quarter earnings release, adding that the shift "is significantly increasing the need for Intel's CPUs and wafer and advanced packaging offerings."
Even so, Intel's reported bottom line is still in the red while it builds out capacity. The company posted a net loss of $3.7 billion in the first quarter -- though $4.1 billion of restructuring and impairment charges, largely a writedown of Mobileye goodwill, more than accounted for it. On a non-GAAP basis, which strips out those and other items, Intel earned $1.5 billion.
That's what makes Thursday's report the more important event of the week. Investors should watch three things: the trajectory of external foundry revenue, the size of the net loss, and any sign that a significant leading-edge customer is getting closer.
And the stock's run complicates the setup. After rising more than 300% in a year, Intel trades at nearly 90 times forward earnings -- a multiple that assumes the turnaround works, not one that leaves room for it to stumble. For a company still in the red on a reported basis, that is a lot of confidence to carry into an earnings report. And Tuesday's move, which came amid a broad chip-sector rally, showed how eager the market is to reward any scrap of foundry progress.
The Fortinet announcement is the first outside proof point of the Tan era, and I don't want to diminish it. A foundry needs customers willing to say so publicly, and now Intel has one. But the deal contributes a signal -- Intel didn't disclose what it contributes in dollars. At this valuation, Intel needs to deliver both. I'd want to see Thursday's numbers (external foundry revenue in particular) before paying nearly 90 times forward earnings for a turnaround still finding its footing.
IBM (IBM - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $2.93 per share, in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate . This compares to earnings of $2.8 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
A quarter ago, it was expected that this technology and consulting company would post earnings of $1.81 per share when it actually produced earnings of $1.91, delivering a surprise of +5.52%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.

This compares to year-ago revenues of $16.98 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates three times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
IBM shares have lost about 28.9% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.7%.

Aztec popsal Fee Juice jako gas pro transakční poplatky a uvedl, že může být veřejný i soukromý. V aplikacích navíc může být poplatek abstraktován a placen v libovolném tokenu.
Gas on AztecGas on Aztec is known as Fee Juice and is used to pay for transaction costs. This is the same as $ETH on Ethereum. Some apps will handle transaction costs for you under the hood, but if you are using a browser extension wallet, you will not be able to send transactions without it. Fee Juice can be obtained by bridging the $AZTEC token on Ethereum to the Aztec Network L2. This means that under the hood, all activity that happens on Aztec is underpinned by the $AZTEC token bridged into the network. Some bridges like Shield (by human.tech) handle this for you, allowing you to allocate a portion of your bridged transaction to convert into Fee Juice and land in your wallet automatically.
Public vs Private AssetsAssets and transactions on the Aztec Network can be either public or private. If you bridge publicly, your tokens will arrive as public, traceable tokens visible to all. Privately bridging, on the other hand, will give you private assets that are visible only to you. These assets can then be sent privately to another user or wallet without ever revealing who you are, what tokens were sent, how many, or who the recipient is.
Public vs Private GasLike tokens on the Aztec Network, Fee Juice (gas) can also be public or private. The reason for this is that even if what you are sending is private, the gas you spend to execute that transaction could still be visible if you are using public Fee Juice, potentially revealing transaction patterns and activity. Private Fee Juice keeps your entire transaction footprint hidden. When you send a private transaction, you can use private Fee Juice, and when you send a public transaction, you can use public Fee Juice, which means your transaction costs are always aligned with the type of transaction you're making.
Fee Juice in AppsAztec has native fee abstraction, which means apps could let you pay for transactions in any token you want, or cover your fees entirely. Apps like Nyx may choose to cover part or all of a user's transaction costs, or allow you to pay in tokens that are convenient for you. This means you will most likely never see Fee Juice in an app; instead, you'll pay in whatever makes sense for what you're doing, on your terms. Similarly, you might never even see an Aztec wallet at all, because the app itself becomes your interface that you connect to using your MetaMask wallet.
Fee Juice in Browser WalletsIf you're using a browser extension like Azguard, you'll manage Fee Juice directly in your wallet alongside your private and public balances, converting between tokens as needed to cover transaction costs.
When you bridge tokens in, you'll need enough Fee Juice to cover the cost of your first transaction, then you'll need to monitor how much Fee Juice you have available to make transactions. Browser wallets will allow you to send either publicly or privately to other users and will default to using either public or private Fee Juice depending on the type of transaction. Both private Fee Juice and public Fee Juice will appear by default in your token list.
Wrapping upHow you handle Fee Juice depends on where you're transacting: apps can abstract it away entirely and let you pay in any token, while a browser wallet like Azguard puts it in your hands to manage across public and private balances. Match your gas to your transaction, keep private activity private down to the fee, and you move on your terms.

Introducing Alpha V5The Aztec Network today activated Alpha V5, a major protocol upgrade passed by token-holder governance and executed onchain. Alpha V5 reduces private-transaction proving times by more than 2x compared to the previous version, lowers the cost of a fully private transaction by roughly 50%, resolves the critical issues found in V4, and sees the first wave of apps go live. Users can now send private transactions and earn yield on Aave simply by connecting their Ethereum wallets on Nyx, bridge from Ethereum to Aztec using Shield or TRAIN, privately collect NFTs on RavenHouse, or play Dark Forest Aztec, a hidden-information strategy game in a universe that lives entirely onchain.
"Alpha V5 continues Aztec's work at the frontier of client-side proving, with cryptographic breakthroughs that cut proving times by more than half this release," said Zac Williamson, Co-founder, Aztec Foundation. "We believe Aztec is now the fastest system in the world for proving a fully private transaction entirely on a user's own device, and every release moves the industry closer to private transactions at public transaction speeds."
As the only decentralized privacy L2, Aztec is the credibly neutral privacy layer for Ethereum. Aztec allows anyone to write smart contracts that include both private and public aspects – every private transaction is proven on the user's own device, so no operator, sequencer, or intermediary can see the data. The Alpha V5 proving improvements come from cryptographic advances that make this client-side proving faster than any prior release. The network remains in alpha, but with V5 it is ready for teams to begin building and deploying applications.
Performance - 2.5 second fully private transactions Making private transactions practical comes down to how quickly a proof can be generated on a user's own device, without offloading that work to a server that would learn what the user is doing. On Alpha V5, proving a private token transfer natively now takes approximately 2.5 seconds on a consumer laptop, down from 5.2 seconds on V4, and about 6.8 seconds in a browser, down from 12.5 seconds. Across every measured transaction flow, client-side proving times improved by approximately 2x compared with V4.
Bench machine: an M2 MacBook (12 cores, throttled to 8). "Native" runs Aztec's C++ proving binary; "WASM" runs the same prover in a browser engine (Node on V8).
Alpha V5 lowers ECDSA signature-verification cost by approximately 2x, speeds up Poseidon2 hashing by approximately 3x, and reduces the protocol circuit gate count by approximately 50% (gate count is the number of individual operations a proving circuit must perform, and it is the main driver of how long a proof takes to generate). Each of these lowers the amount of work a device performs to prove a transaction, and the reduction in gate count in particular compounds across every proof the network generates.
Apps - send, receive, and earn privately on EthereumAlpha V5 launches the first wave of apps on a network where privacy is built into the protocol rather than managed by an operator. On other networks that claim privacy, transactions still pass through an operator or node that reads them in plaintext, or depend on a viewing key that a third party holds, so users rely on someone else to protect their data and to decide when it gets disclosed. On Aztec, every private transaction is proven on the user's own device, so the app, the sequencer, and any operator never need to see the underlying data. Nyx is one of these apps, allowing users to privately send transactions and privately earn yield on Aave.
"On Ethereum, everything you do is public. That's why we built Nyx: a private account governed by your Ethereum wallet", said Nikhil, Co-founder of Nyx. "Now you can send, receive and earn in private. Nyx was the first app live on the Aztec Alpha, and we're excited to expand participation to more users with the added stability of Alpha V5."
Other apps on Alpha V5 include Azguard and Nethermind (wallets), Shield, TRAIN, and RavenHouse (bridges), and the Aztecscan block explorers. Also launching is Dark Forest Aztec, a game where users explore a universe, control planets, manage planetary energy, expand territory, and launch attacks through strategic play with private state and hidden actions.
Dark Forest Aztec private universe-building gameplayLower costs, higher security Transaction fees on Aztec come from two main sources: the cost of proving a transaction and the cost of verifying the rollup proof on Ethereum. Alpha V5 reduces both. It lowers the network's proving-cost parameter by 50%, and it reduces the L1 gas required to verify a rollup proof by approximately 40%. Because rollup proofs are verified on Ethereum and that cost is shared across all transactions in a batch, the L1 reduction lowers fees for every user, while the lower proving-cost parameter reduces the per-transaction proving fee directly. Together, these bring the average cost of a fully private token transfer to under a $0.05 transaction cost.
Alpha V5 also hardens the network on several fronts. It resolves critical vulnerabilities found in Alpha V4 along with additional bugs discovered since launch. Aztec's bug bounty program on Cantina also drew more than 234 security researchers to participate. The network remains in alpha, and further bugs may surface as usage grows, but each release has closed the issues found in the last and strengthened the protocol against new ones. With the critical V4 issues resolved and these safeguards in place, Alpha V5 is stable enough for teams to begin building and deploying applications.
AvailabilityAlpha V5 is live now, view the Alpha V5 landing page for a full list of features, performance updates, and live apps to explore.
About AztecAztec is the only decentralized, privacy-first Layer 2 on Ethereum. Developers write private and public logic in the same smart contract, and private functions are executed and proven on the user's own device, so no operator sees the underlying data. The protocol is upgraded through onchain governance, and the network settles to Ethereum. For more information, visit aztec.network.

Inside an Aztec TransactionOn Ethereum today, each transaction reveals everything publicly. The token you moved, the size, the timing, the wallet it came from, every action you take. Given the limitations of this type of transparent network, the industry is now focusing on bringing privacy onchain as a top priority. The response to this has mostly been to enable private transactions that shield transfers in various ways. But when we look at how privacy works on Web2, it’s clear that users and developers need granular privacy controls: the ability to decide what is public or private and who is able to see different types of data.
Aztec was built so that one transaction can carry two halves. A private half that runs on your own device and never leaves it, and a public half that the network runs in the open. Apps can choose which aspects are private or public, and users can choose what they want to reveal and when.
This article will follow an example transaction on Aztec: a vote in an onchain election built on Aztec, where who you are and which candidate you chose stay private, while the running tally for each candidate stays public for anyone to verify.
Public and private in one movePicture the vote you cast in our example as two aspects that seamlessly weave together. In the first step, you act in private: an app records your vote on your device and hands the network a proof that the vote is valid without revealing it. In the second, the network acts in public: it checks that proof, then adds one to the chosen candidate's public tally. It is one transaction: one part stays with you, one part goes to the network. Both parts end up recorded onchain, in two separate state trees, one private and one public. The walkthrough below follows how these two aspects work together and what this means for how your transaction lands onchain.
It starts on your deviceYou open the voting app and connect an Aztec wallet. That first step looks like any onchain app. The difference is inside the wallet. An Aztec wallet carries a private execution environment, the PXE, pronounced "pixie", which runs on your phone or in your browser. The PXE is where the private half of your transaction executes, and where the proof of that work gets made, on your hardware, under your exclusive control.
Every account on Aztec is a smart contract rather than a bare key. That design, account abstraction, allows a wallet to authorize a transaction however its owner chooses without writing an identity onto the network for everyone to read. The wallet is the front door, and on Aztec you can decide if the door is open or closed, who you share your information with.
The private half runs on your deviceThe voting app is a smart contract with two kinds of functions. The private functions run first, and they run inside your PXE. Your identity and the candidate you picked are the private inputs, and they stay on your device.
The only thing to leave your device is a proof confirming the legitimacy of your vote. Aztec's client-side proving system, Chonk, takes the private execution and produces a zero-knowledge proof: a compact cryptographic receipt that your vote followed the rules, that you are eligible, and have not voted before, while revealing nothing about who you are or who you voted for. Think of it as a sealed ballot the network can confirm is valid without opening it. The network learns only that a legitimate vote happened. It does not learn how you voted, or even which account voted.
This is the part that used to be too slow to be practical. Generating a proof on a phone was the bottleneck every privacy app hit. Aztec’s Chonk is purpose-built for fast proving on low-memory devices, both natively and in the browser, so the private half runs on the device in your hand instead of on someone else's server.
The public half runs in the openSome elements of a vote should be public. The tally is shared infrastructure, the number everyone relies on to trust the result. Thanks to programmable privacy on Aztec, the app marks that part public. Public functions live on the network and run in the open, the way functions do on Ethereum.
On Aztec, private and public logic live in the same contract, and the developer decides which is which, function by function and variable by variable. Programmable privacy is a dimmer, not a switch. The voting app turns it up on the individual ballot and turns it down on the running tally. That boundary is a design decision written into the contract, and it is the thing no transparent chain and no fixed-privacy chain can offer.
The network checks the proof and runs the public partYour vote leaves your device as a bundle: the zero-knowledge proof of the private half, plus the call to the public function that updates the count. It goes to Aztec's sequencers, a decentralized set of thousands of independent operators, with more than 3,500 of them running the network today.
The sequencers do two jobs at once. They verify the proof of your private vote, confirming it is valid and eligible without seeing the choice behind it, and they run the public function that adds one to the chosen candidate and updates the public tally. Your ballot stays sealed. The count goes up by one for everyone to see. The same proof guarantees you cannot vote twice, even though no one learns which ballot is yours.
Two state trees, both onchainAztec has two main state trees, and both live onchain. One holds private state, the other holds public state, so the full record of what happened sits on the network rather than on any one person's laptop. The two trees store each record in two different ways depending on if it needs to be private or public.
The private tree uses a UTXO model, the same note-based design used by Zcash. In this model, state is written as commitments: each entry is a sealed record that a valid vote was cast, with the voter and the choice kept private. Just like with Zcash or Bitcoin, you do not edit a private entry in place. You write a new one, and the design stops the same vote from being cast twice (old state is nullified). The vote stays private, and the record of a legitimate vote happening is onchain for the network to check.
The public tree uses an account-based model, the same shape Ethereum uses: values that update in place, readable by anyone. This is where each candidate's tally lives.
One transaction wrote information to both trees. The private tree recorded that you voted, sealed. The public tree recorded the new totals, in the open. Everything is onchain. The difference between the two trees is how much each one reveals.
Every private app on Aztec writes into that same private tree. A vote, a payment, and a payroll run all land in one shared record of activity, so each user's privacy grows stronger as the network grows, instead of splitting into a separate pool for every app.
A block is proposed, and Ethereum records itAztec is an L2 on Ethereum, so everything settles to Ethereum L1. A sequencer on Aztec gathers transactions into a proposed block. Other sequencers validate it before it goes to Ethereum's pending chain. At that point the block sits on Ethereum, ordered and recorded, waiting for its proof. The network has agreed on what happened and the proposed block is just waiting a final proof.
Anyone can prove itProving a block is its own job, and on Aztec, it belongs to no one in particular. A decentralized, permissionless set of provers competes to take a full epoch, a 32-block stretch of the chain, and compresses it into a single zero-knowledge proof of the entire epoch. Anyone with the hardware can run a prover and bid for the work. There is no privileged operator, no committee you have to trust, no outside network holding a key.
That openness is the whole point of a privacy layer. A system that protects your data but routes it through one trusted server has only moved the exposure rather than removed it. Aztec keeps proving permissionless and your private inputs on your device, thereby avoiding any exposure.
The economics land in the voter's favor too. As an L2 network, Aztec spreads the cost of that one L1 proof across thousands of transactions in the rollup, so a vote costs pennies, not the millions of gas a private proof would cost verified alone on Ethereum.
Settled on Ethereum, verifiable by anyoneA prover then posts the epoch proof to Ethereum's proven chain, and the Aztec state is final. Ethereum verifies one proof and inherits the correctness of everything inside it. Aztec extends Ethereum and settles to Ethereum, so your hybrid transaction carries Ethereum's security without carrying Ethereum's enforced transparency.
Anyone can now verify that the result is valid and that every counted vote was legitimate. No one can see how any individual voted. The tally is on the shared ledger where it belongs, and your ballot stayed yours the whole way through.
What this unlocksFor the voter, their ballot was never a broadcast. The candidate you chose stayed yours, with no record tying your wallet to a name for anyone to read later, and you can still check that your vote was counted and the result is honest. You took part without your choice becoming data for systems built to act on it.
For a founder, the election app in this walkthrough is easy to implement without needing to build extensive custom code. Secret ballots with a public, verifiable count, in one contract, is a product category that opens up only because the boundary is programmable. You can build governance, elections, and polls where people vote without fear and the result still proves itself. And of course you can build anything that requires both public and private state to work seamlessly together.
For an infrastructure provider, the same machinery serves clients who need a result they can stand behind without exposing the people who produced it. Selective disclosure lets a client prove exactly what a counterparty needs to see, the count and the integrity of the process, and protect everything else, on their own terms. That is a guarantee a transparent chain cannot make.
A real vote needs two things at once: a secret ballot and a count anyone can check. A transparent chain makes you give up the first to get the second. On Aztec, you get both. The tally settled on Ethereum for anyone to verify, and how you voted stayed yours. The infrastructure is in place, what will you create with it?

The Devil's Bargain - Privacy Without Credible Neutrality Crypto is in a long night. It is no secret that the industry is facing challenging circumstances and there has been a clear consolidation of the industry. Right now we are seeing a focus on real traction, demonstrable value projects shipping practical solutions that will meaningfully reach users.
Some of that discipline is overdue. However, in times like these the properties that made crypto structurally different begin to look expendable. Decentralization slows you down. It makes upgrades harder. It makes institutional sales harder. It removes the control surfaces that the existing financial world knows how to buy.
We used to accept those costs as the price of building something durable. But, in a famine, they look like unaffordable affectations. Discarding them wholesale, however, is like selling the land out from under our feet.
Permissionless, uncensorable transaction networks with rich composability - this is the clay from which our industry was grown. The long term commercial health of our industry depends on preserving these properties in an age of privacy and institutional adoption.
These trade-offs become more challenging and pernicious when privacy is involved. Privacy is the narrative for crypto in 2026, and for good reason. It’s the missing piece that will deliver the traction and real use-cases that the industry so desperately needs.
The challenges of decentralization multiply under the constraints of privacy and what we are seeing in the industry is not a pivot, but a complete capitulation of all of the differentiable value that made crypto valuable.
I have spent nearly a decade building a network that marries programmable privacy with decentralization. A network where users keep their data, where applications are composable with one another, where transactions can settle without a privileged party learning everyone’s business or deciding which products are allowed to exist. That required new cryptography, new programming models, new state architecture, new wallets, and a fairly insane number of tradeoffs that are invisible until you try to build the thing yourself. There are easier products to ship.
A centralized privacy service can give institutions something legible quickly, replicating how the existing financial sector works: a responsible operator, a viewing key, a way to block transactions, a way to explain the whole thing to a risk committee. Some of these products will be useful. Some will be good businesses. But they are not the thing we came here to build.
The Devil’s BargainInstitutional and enterprise adoption is one of the core growth areas in this crypto-winter and the playbook is simple: use the language of crypto as a skin-suit to sell products and services that pattern match onto existing financial rails, with their need for complete visibility, censorship, centralized network operators and all of the liabilities this incurs.
This is a tempting bargain because it shortens the path to adoption. It gives buyers and regulators a shape they understand. A company. A contract. A switch. But the moment you accept that bargain, the system changes character. It may still be encrypted. It may still contain proofs. It may still call itself private. But, it now behaves like and is an operated service.
There is a party with privileged knowledge and privileged control. Builders must shape themselves around it. Institutions negotiate with it. Regulators may pressure it. Attackers target it. Users ultimately depend on it. By a backdoor I mean something specific: a network or protocol-level viewing key where the product developer does not control who can see their users’ data, especially when paired with network-level controls that can block transactions or ban smart contracts entirely. I do not mean application-level controls. I do not mean user-authorised disclosure. I do not mean a dapp deciding that users must prove something before using it. Regulated applications will need rules. The issue is that the disclosure boundary of your application belongs to somebody else, and the same layer that sees can also decide whether your users are allowed to transact. In short, users lack a platform that has credible neutrality.
The Platform RiskPrivacy on top of centralized rails is fatal. If one party can see everything and stop anything, that party may be treated as responsible for seeing and stopping.
This compounds into substantial platform risk. If an entity builds on top of such a system they must surrender visibility and control to the network operator to satisfy their liabilities without consideration for yours. Decentralization and ultimately credible neutrality is the difference between whether you own durable infrastructure or are renting a service whose rules can change on a whim. Worse, you cannot “just build things”. For novel transaction flows approval must be sought and granted. Tell me, would Ethereum have grown if every smart contract deployment required approval from the Ethereum Foundation?
Privacy needs the same freedom. A private credit market, for example, touches identity, collateral, repayment history, payment flows, liquidation logic, lender disclosures, auditor access and borrower privacy. If every component lives inside a different permissioned service, each with its own operator and viewing assumptions, that is a bureaucratic friction that negates blockchain’s core value proposition; composability.
A decentralized and credibly neutral privacy network prevents the settlement layer from becoming the single place where all surveillance and censorship obligations naturally accumulate. It allows product developers to scope their code to satisfy their own narrow requirements without consideration for the obligations of a centralized operator.
Building for credible neutralityA lot of today’s privacy narrative treats architecture as if it were a detail. It is not. You cannot take a transparent ledger, staple confidentiality onto the edge, add a viewing key for comfort, and expect to get programmable private infrastructure.
If the state model is not private from the ground up you get wrappers, third party tools, data custodians, ad hoc disclosure paths and a pile of assumptions that every application drags into the next. Developers do not get a normal programming model where private contracts can call private contracts and users keep state on their own devices. They do not get composability.
The difference matters. In a real private execution environment, users generate transactions locally. They do not outsource their intent to a third party who learns what they are doing. Private contracts interact through a state model designed for privacy. The network settles proofs without becoming the party that knows everyone’s business. Privacy is part of the architecture.
This is why Aztec has taken so long. We built something that makes programmable private state and decentralised settlement live inside the same system. That means proving systems that run on consumer hardware, a transaction architecture built around local private execution, and a programming model where privacy is idiomatic and just works out of the box.
A centralized service can skip much of this. It can hold the key, run the prover, approve the flow and call the result privacy. It gets to market faster because it is not trying to arrive at the same place.
The edgeAdding decentralization does not make obligations disappear. Applications, issuers, frontends, custodians and regulated businesses will continue to exist in a web of obligations and responsibilities. Anyone pretending otherwise is unserious.
The question is where those obligations live. If they are pushed into the settlement layer, the settlement layer is no longer credibly neutral. It needs visibility into everyone and controls over everyone.
The better answer is selective disclosure. Users and applications should prove specific facts to specific parties for specific purposes. A regulated application may need to know that a user passed a check, that a transaction satisfies a policy, or that an auditor can inspect a particular flow. None of that requires the base network to hold a permanent key into everyone’s activity.
This will be harder to explain to the existing world. New infrastructure always fails to fit the categories built for the old infrastructure. Bitcoin did not arrive as a neatly regulated bank product. Ethereum did not wait for every lawyer to understand smart contracts. Stablecoins and DeFi forced institutions, regulators and users to develop new language around rails that kept existing.
If the standard for privacy infrastructure is to plug into the old world without changing anything, the answer will always be a service with a backdoor. And the result will be to catch crumbs falling from the tables of the old world.
The market worth buildingThe market we should be building is, well, a market. A private financial system that compounds: assets, liquidity, identity, credentials, credit and applications interacting through a shared settlement layer without forcing users to surrender their data to whoever sits in the middle.
Traditional finance is built out of vertically integrated information silos. Those silos are its moat. Banks, exchanges, custodians, payment processors and data brokers all benefit from controlling the information that flows through them. A global private settlement layer attacks that advantage directly. It lets liquidity and credentials move while outsourcing information custody to neutral cryptographic infrastructure.
A company wants a moat. A settlement layer wants surface area. A permissioned privacy provider can ration access, raise fees, exclude applications, shape disclosure rules and define acceptable use around its own risk tolerance. These are products pretending to be networks, and not durable financial infrastructure. What bothers me is this compounding category confusion. Networks adding protocol-level viewing keys and transaction controls are using the same language as decentralised programmable privacy, and commentators are treating them as variations of the same thing. They are not.
We have spent nine years walking the hard road. Now, just as we are close, the market has lost faith. Everyone is reaching for whatever lifeline looks immediate. Some of those lifelines will be real. Some will make money. But if crypto responds to its long night by rebuilding financial privacy as permissioned services, then we will have survived by surrendering the property that made the industry worth building.
Markets can grow when the platform is removed from the position where it can dictate the rules. It would be perverse to forget that lesson while building privacy, the domain where control over information matters most.
The land we tillCrypto is in a famine. The land is struggling. We could sell our land for a pittance and survive the season. But the famine will pass, and when it does the land will blossom again. Without the land we are nothing.
We have struggled immensely to create a permissionless network that can marry privacy with decentralisation: an indestructible network whose users cannot be surveilled and whose transactions cannot be censored. This is the soil we have to grow our crops. To surrender a backdoor or a centralized operator for temporary relief is to sell our land for the price of a stablecoin. And we cannot sell the land.

Who controls your privacy off-switch?Privacy has become a baseline requirement for L1s and L2s who care about bringing real-world users onchain. Users don't want their activity broadcast to competitors or the general public, but applications operating at scale also need some form of auditability, whether for regulators, compliance requirements, or tax reporting. Selective disclosure resolves that tension: privacy by default, with the ability to prove specific facts when required. What separates these networks is not whether they offer that switch, but who gets to hold it.
Aztec, Canton, Starknet, Tempo, and zkSync all offer some form of privacy with selective disclosure, but under the hood they make fundamentally different architectural decisions about who can see your data and who can turn your privacy off. Those decisions determine whether your privacy stays under your own control or sits behind a switch that someone else operates.
Three questions reveal where these networks actually diverge:
Who sees your data?Who can prove the network followed its own rules?Who controls when something gets disclosed?The answers determine whether your privacy off-switch is held by a policy, by an operator's good behavior, or by you alone through a cryptographic proof. As you'll see in this post, there are legitimate reasons to use each one with different tradeoffs. Aztec is the only network, however, where that switch stays in the user's hands, answering all three questions without putting a permissioned set of operators or a standing viewing key in control of your privacy. That gives developers the flexibility to build apps that comply with applicable laws while still keeping full privacy under the user's control.
This article will compare the privacy approaches of Aztec, Canton, Starknet, Tempo, and zkSync to give developers insight into the privacy tradeoffs of each network.
TL;DRHere’s how each network handles the selective disclosure privacy off-switch, and who has control over your privacy:
Aztec: Only you can see your data, client-side proofs settled to Ethereum let anyone verify every transaction without trusting an operator, and the off-switch stays in your hands, allowing you selectively share information.Canton: Participant nodes read your data in plaintext, no outside party can verify the global ledger, and your off-switch sits with those nodes rather than with you, since disclosure depends on them staying honest.Starknet: No operator ever sees your plaintext because proofs are generated client-side, and those proofs verify the rules, but your off-switch is a standing viewing key that a designated auditor can use to decrypt and trace your entire history on request.Tempo: The zone operator sees every transaction in plaintext, mainnet validity proofs let anyone verify the zone ran correctly, and the operator holds the off-switch, so you are private from the public but not from the operator. zkSync: The operator reads every transaction in plaintext while a validity proof on Ethereum proves it cannot forge state, and the operator holds the off-switch over who sees what, giving you privacy from the outside world but not from the operator.The Comparison In One View
Comparing your privacy off-switch Each of these networks offers privacy with selective disclosure, but each rests on a different network design with its own tradeoffs. We have ordered them by who holds your privacy off-switch, starting with designs where a third party controls access to your data and ending with designs where that control stays with you. At the top, the switch sits behind a policy promise and an honest operator, and further down it is replaced by proofs that the user generates and controls.
CantonCanton keeps data private by controlling viewing permissions for the various actors on its network. A transaction splits into per-participant views, so each party receives only the sub-transactions that name it, and the parts it is not entitled to never reach it. The sequencer and mediator move those views without reading them, which is real privacy against those roles.
However, the data is still read in plaintext by the participant nodes that host the relevant parties, and in the common regulated-asset pattern where the issuer is a signatory on its own token, the issuer's node sees every transfer. The harder gap is verification, because no third party can reconstruct the global ledger, so correctness rests on the confirming nodes staying honest and their keys staying safe. In practice the off-switch sits with those nodes rather than with you, since you cannot see when your data is read and cannot stop it.
TempoTempo is designed for payments and uses validity proofs to verify that each zone is executing correctly, while still giving the zone operator full plaintext visibility into every transaction within that zone. Privacy comes from Tempo Zones, which are parallel execution environments connected to the Tempo mainnet.
By design, the zone operator has visibility into all transactions within the zone, while users see only their own and the public sees only a proof that the zone is valid. Token issuers set compliance controls, allowlists, blocklists, and freezes, enforced across zones. The mainnet checks each zone's validity, so execution is verified, while the operator still reads every transaction in plaintext and holds the off-switch over what is revealed. Your privacy is from the public, not from the operator.
zkSync PrividiumzkSync Prividium adds the verifiability piece that Canton lacks. Every batch produces a validity proof settled to Ethereum, so a compromised operator cannot forge state or mint tokens from nothing without also forging a proof, which it cannot do. The tradeoff is that the operator processes every transaction in plaintext and decides who sees what, which means the off-switch stays with the operator and your privacy is from the outside world rather than from the operator itself.
This tradeoff has legitimate uses in high-trust institutional environments. If Bank of America, JPMorgan, and Wells Fargo are transacting on a shared network, a zone where BofA's infrastructure processes BofA-originated transactions satisfies internal control requirements while still delivering genuine ZK privacy from the other banks and the rest of the world. Where this model breaks down is in lower-trust environments where giving an operator full plaintext access and the switch that comes with it holds back product design possibilities.
Starknet STRK20Starknet's STRK20 breaks from relying on an operator for privacy. It shields ERC-20 balances and transfers in a privacy pool, and every private transaction carries a zero-knowledge proof generated client-side, so no operator sees your plaintext in order to build it.
Disclosure is where STRK20 diverges from Aztec. To join the Starknet Privacy Pool, you register an encrypted viewing key onchain, and it sits there for the life of your participation. On a regulatory request, a designated auditing entity can decrypt that key and trace your complete transaction history, forwards and backwards. StarkWare calls this ‘not a backdoor’ but a carefully scoped access mechanism, and the safeguard is a policy promise that the auditor decrypts only when required. The privacy is cryptographic, but the off-switch is a standing key that someone else holds and can flip whether or not you are watching.
AztecOn Aztec your private state lives as encrypted private data that only you can decrypt. The contract developer can choose what state is public and what is private, and whether your encrypted private data is emitted onchain as a private log or shared off-chain instead.
Your transactions get proven client-side on your own device, so no sequencer or operator sees your unencrypted private data. Those proofs settle to Ethereum, which gives the same integrity anchor marketed by Prividium, with every transaction verified and no forged state, but without a single operator who reads your data. The base protocol decentralizes sequencing, proving, and governance, so there is no operator to choose and trust in the first place.
Disclosure is your choice too: you decide who learns your private data, and whether they learn it in encrypted or decrypted form. To grant discovery without readability, you share an app-specific tagging secret that lets an auditor find your data in encrypted form without being able to decrypt and read it. This is enough to prove things calculated from that data, such as a tax basis or a profit and loss figure. Granting permission to actually read the data works differently. There's no per-contract read key you can hand out, because decryption uses your master viewing key, which would unlock all your data across every contract. So instead of sharing a key, you share the data itself, plus a proof that your plaintext is what encrypts to the on-chain ciphertext.
Aztec has true selective disclosure in that you can selectively share it, and nothing else you don’t need to. This is app specific, meaning that private data discoverability access on one app does not grant access on another. Most importantly, the off-switch stays in your hands, and you never need to trust the network to handle access to any of your private data and activity.
This is not just conceptual: here is a working proof-of-concept of this model on Aztec. PrivPNL takes you from private DEX trades through a tagging-key disclosure to a browser-generated ZK proof of your PnL. The auditor verifies a proof while the prover only has to reveal the amount they owe, and your portfolio stays private.
Users need to hold their own off-switch, not a promise to look awayCanton keeps the switch with the participant nodes that read your data in plaintext, so disclosure rests on those nodes staying honest rather than on anything you control. Tempo similarly gives the off-switch to a zone-based node operator, but allows you to verify the correctness of transactions using validity proofs. Prividium hardens that promise with a proof settled to Ethereum, a real improvement, but the operator still reads every transaction and still decides who sees what. This can work well for large institutions, but small to medium sized enterprises are left with the same privacy as their current banks unless they run their own Prividium nodes. STRK20 moves the switch into a standing viewing key and asks you to trust that a designated auditor reaches for it only when needed. In each of these models the real question is not whether your privacy can be switched off, but who gets to do the switching, and whether you would even know it happened.
Aztec takes the operator and the standing key out of the question entirely. You keep the data, you generate the proof, and you disclose the result, one fact at a time and only when you choose to. The off-switch never leaves your hands, and no operator, auditor, or node can reach it on your behalf. This is one of the benefits of a network that offers fully programmable, privacy-preserving smart contracts that put you in control.
Selective disclosure is how privacy survives contact with a regulator, and the model you pick decides who can open your history when you are not looking. On Aztec, that answer is no one but you.

Bill McDermott uvedl, že ServiceNow má „kill switch“ pro zdivočelé AI agenty a AI adopce posiluje jeho konkurenceschopnost. Firma zároveň zvýšila celoroční výhled.
ServiceNow CEO Bill McDermott said on Wednesday that the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence is strengthening the company's competitive position.
His comments come just one day after OpenAI disclosed that one of its advanced AI agents escaped a controlled testing environment during a cybersecurity evaluation and compromised the infrastructure of AI startup Hugging Face before it was detected and contained.
"We have a kill switch that stops AI agents that go rogue, so those things don't need to happen, and they wouldn't happen when companies run ServiceNow," McDermott said on CNBC's "Mad Money."
ServiceNow offers a suite of software applications and tools used by companies to manage and automate workflows across IT, human resources, and customer service operations. It's also expanded its cybersecurity presence, in part through the acquisitions of Veza and Armis. Both deals closed this year.
Agentic systems are an increasingly popular corner of AI, going beyond a more simplistic chatbot that answers queries with a written response. These advanced systems are capable of executing multi-step tasks with little to no human intervention.
McDermott said ServiceNow's AI Control Tower is its system that gives companies a central place to monitor, manage, and secure the growing number of AI agents, helping businesses move "from AI chaos to AI discipline."
Shares of ServiceNow rose in extended trading after the company reported better-than-expected earnings and revenue. Even after the jump, however, the stock remains down more than 30% this year after software shares sold off during what investors dubbed the "SaaSpocalypse" amid concerns that advances in AI would disrupt the industry's traditional seat-based business model.
McDermott dismissed concerns that growing AI competition could pressure ServiceNow's profits or cause customers to shorten contract terms.
"If you look at the terms of our contracts, they've actually gotten longer," McDermott said.
Instead, he argued that broader AI adoption should increase demand for ServiceNow's software.
"There's going to be more AI. There's going to be more incidents, and all these things drive more and more volume to ServiceNow," he said. "That's why we increased the full-year guide."
OpenAI did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment but said earlier that AI is accelerating the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities, which means model security and safety need to keep up.
"We are strengthening the containment, monitoring, access controls, and evaluation practices used during model development," the ChatGPT maker said.
ServiceNow koupil zhruba 5% podíl v BusinessNext v transakci, která oceňuje indickou softwarovou firmu na 700 milionů USD. BusinessNext zároveň získal 40 milionů USD v rámci kola Series C.
CompaniesJuly 22 (Reuters) - ServiceNow (NOW.N), opens new tab has acquired roughly 5% of BusinessNext in a deal that values the software provider at $700 million, as the Indian company looks to expand its autonomous banking tools through a partnership with the U.S.-based software giant.
BusinessNext said on Wednesday it raised $40 million in a Series C round from ServiceNow Ventures, a venture capital arm of the company.

Here are some details:
BusinessNext CEO Nishant Singh told Reuters that the funding will primarily be allocated to strengthening the company's sales efforts, initially focusing on expanding distribution in Southeast Asia and Australia.
"Every company has to go to an IPO. Right now, we're not looking at the IPO part," he said, adding that BusinessNext's ambition "right now is to run in every bank in the world."
The deal comes as banks are increasingly adopting AI tools offered by companies like BusinessNext to customize services, address customer queries and automate operations, helping them in saving time and attract more customers.
BusinessNext competes with companies like Freshworks (FRSH.O), opens new tab and has more than 120 customers including India's largest lender State Bank of India (SBI.NS), opens new tab and HDFC Bank (HDBK.NS), opens new tab.
The company said this partnership that will allow for enhanced monitoring of BusinessNext's AI agents through ServiceNow's AI control tower, a centralized platform for managing and governing AI models and agents across an enterprise.
Singh said BusinessNext has been "above $50 million for a couple of years now" in annual revenue, adding that the company has nearly 1,300 employees.
On Wednesday, ServiceNow raised its forecast for annual subscription revenue for the second time after beating second-quarter revenue and profit estimates, driven by growing demand for its AI-powered software.

AvalonBay Communities (AVB - Free Report) came out with quarterly funds from operations (FFO) of $2.86 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2.8 per share. This compares to FFO of $2.82 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an FFO surprise of +2.14%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this apartment building owner would post FFO of $2.8 per share when it actually produced FFO of $2.83, delivering a surprise of +1.07%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus FFO estimates three times.
AvalonBay, which belongs to the Zacks REIT and Equity Trust - Residential industry, posted revenues of $777.77 million for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 0.31%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $760.2 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates just once over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future FFO expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
AvalonBay shares have added about 5.2% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.7%.
What's Next for AvalonBay?While AvalonBay has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's FFO outlook. Not only does this include current consensus FFO expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for AvalonBay was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus FFO estimate is $2.81 on $784 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $11.28 on $3.12 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, REIT and Equity Trust - Residential is currently in the top 38% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
One other stock from the same industry, UMH Properties (UMH - Free Report) , is yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on August 5.
This real estate investment trust is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.24 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of +4.4%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has remained unchanged over the last 30 days.
UMH Properties' revenues are expected to be $72.33 million, up 8.5% from the year-ago quarter.

The settlement agreement preserves customer options and resolves terminal railroad ownership issues, while expanding CN’s presence in the Midwest and reaffirming gateway protections for all customers and railroads.

CN gains access to shipper facilities where Class I railroad options would be reduced from 2-to-1 or 3-to-2, where commercially and operationally feasible.CN acquires Norfolk Southern's ownership interests in the Kansas City Terminal Railway Company (KCT) and the Terminal Railroad Association of St. Louis (TRRA). CN gains new access in the Midwest through overhead rights between Tuscola, Illinois, and East St. Louis, Illinois, and rights to serve customers between St. Louis, Missouri, and Kansas City, Missouri. For the first time, CN will have a footprint in the heart of Kansas City, with usage of Union Pacific’s Neff Yard. CN will not oppose the Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern merger.

“As the rail industry considers significant structural change, it is essential that customers continue to benefit from meaningful competition and choice,” said CN President and CEO Tracy Robinson. “This framework would preserve competitive access to key markets, including Kansas City, while positioning CN to continue providing reliable and efficient options for customers across North America.”

It's also important for investors to be aware of any recent modifications to analyst estimates for UiPath. These latest adjustments often mirror the shifting dynamics of short-term business patterns. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the business and profitability.
Research indicates that these estimate revisions are directly correlated with near-term share price momentum. To capitalize on this, we've crafted the Zacks Rank, a unique model that incorporates these estimate changes and offers a practical 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.

Digging into valuation, UiPath currently has a Forward P/E ratio of 15.05. This represents a discount compared to its industry average Forward P/E of 19.55.
We can additionally observe that PATH currently boasts a PEG ratio of 0.72. The PEG ratio is akin to the commonly utilized P/E ratio, but this measure also incorporates the company's anticipated earnings growth rate. The Internet - Software industry had an average PEG ratio of 1.06 as trading concluded yesterday.
The Internet - Software industry is part of the Computer and Technology sector. With its current Zacks Industry Rank of 104, this industry ranks in the top 43% of all industries, numbering over 250.

The company maintains a diversified portfolio across construction, industrial, and consumer markets, leveraging proprietary formulations and established distribution networks to compete in fragmented specialty chemical segments. RPM's strategic positioning in high-growth end markets such as building weatherization, infrastructure maintenance, and industrial flooring solutions provides sustainable competitive advantages through product differentiation and customer relationships.
What this transaction means for investorsThe performance shares that triggered this filing were granted in 2023 and paid out this month, which means the vesting rewards three years of results that just culminated in a strong finish. Gordon kept 80,281 shares plus a large stack of appreciation rights, and ultimately, nothing about a withholding trade signals his view of the stock.
The timing does line up with news, though. RPM just capped fiscal 2026 with record fourth-quarter results, each of its three segments growing sales and adjusted operating profit, and CEO Frank Sullivan noted the quarter marked "the 16th time in the past 18 quarters” the company hit record adjusted EBIT — despite eight straight quarters of weak do-it-yourself demand. Against the records, long-term investors should keep an eye on this dynamic and the consumer softness. RPM keeps setting profit highs on cost discipline and its construction and coatings segments, but a persistently weak DIY market is the drag that has offset its efficiency, and with shares down about 4% in the past year, it’s clear investors are craving more.

Akcie Constellation Energy ve středu vzrostly o 4,66 % po zprávách o 30leté jaderné dohodě o spolupráci mezi USA a Saúdskou Arábií a o plánu vlády podpořit výstavbu elektráren za 200 milionů USD.
Constellation Energy (CEG +4.66%) stock was true to its name on Wednesday, as investors energetically traded it almost 5% higher. This was part of a broader rally in nuclear stocks, on the back of a splashy deal signed between the U.S. government and a key ally, plus reports of a new top-down initiative to spur power plant build-outs in this country.
The Saudi deal The Trump administration announced Wednesday that it had signed a long-term deal to help develop nuclear technology with Saudi Arabia. The 30-year pact formalizes nuclear cooperation between the two nations and pushes several U.S. energy companies into leading roles in build-outs in the strategic Middle Eastern country.
Image source: Getty Images.
It's important to note that Constellation isn't likely to be one of the main companies involved in the work, as its concentration is on domestic energy generation. Yet as the No. 1 operator of American nuclear plants, it could serve in an advisory or training capacity.
Besides, the government's striking this deal is yet another strong indication of its desire to promote and support the nuclear power industry.

Continued domestic push Separately, Bloomberg reported that the administration is also planning to launch a new, $200 million program to support the construction of power plants within our borders. A key goal of this initiative, not surprisingly, is to satisfy the considerable power needs of artificial intelligence (AI)-ready data centers.
As nuclear plants produce considerable clean power, they are considered ideal facilities for such a push.
The Bloomberg article, which cited a document its reporters had seen, mentioned small modluar reactor (SMR) specialists Oklo and X-Energy as participants on the energy industry side, and Microsoft and Nvidia as partners from the tech sector.
Constellation was not mentioned in the article, as it operates full-scale nuclear facilities and not SMRs. Even if it doesn't end up playing a role in the program, it's sure to benefit from this latest top-down effort to boost the nation's power-generating capacity.

3 Mid-Cap to Mega-Cap Stocks Have Announced Significant BuybacksSEI Investments NASDAQ: SEIC reported what executives described as an “outstanding” second quarter of 2026, with quarterly records for revenue, adjusted operating profit and adjusted earnings per share.
Chief Executive Officer Ryan Hicke said revenue rose 15% from the prior year, adjusted operating profit increased 36% and adjusted EPS grew 38%. Hicke told analysts the results reflected changes made over the past several years, including more disciplined capital allocation, an evolved value proposition and execution of strategic goals laid out at the company’s investor day.
Get SEI Investments alerts:
“This quarter is less about what happened during the last three months and more a reflection of the changes we have made over the past few years,” Hicke said.
Operating Leverage Drives Earnings Growth Chief Financial and Chief Operating Officer Sean Denham said the increase in adjusted EPS was driven primarily by core operating performance, including mid-teens revenue growth, 500 basis points of margin expansion and a 3% reduction in share count.
The quarter also included investment-related gains. Denham said SEI’s consolidated co-investment in an LSV hedge fund contributed $7.5 million through the net gain on variable interest entities line item. He said SEI invested $50 million in that strategy last year, and it has generated more than $12 million of gains over the last 12 months after excluding non-controlling interests. SEI also recognized nearly $4 million of mark-to-market gains across several other co-investments during the quarter.
Denham said revenue and operating profit increased across most of SEI’s businesses. Investment Managers Services generated 17% revenue growth, reflecting the conversion of prior sales into revenue. Private Banking revenue increased 11%, driven by growth within the existing client base. Advisors revenue rose 30%, benefiting from higher market values and the contribution from Stratos.
Institutional was the exception, with operating profit roughly flat from the prior year as SEI continued investing in asset management initiatives.
Sales Events Remain Elevated SEI reported $43 million of sales events during the quarter, following a record $67 million in the first quarter. Year-to-date sales events totaled $110 million.
Hicke said Investment Managers Services generated more than $32 million of sales events, driven by both new client wins and expanded relationships with existing clients. Denham said about three-quarters of IMS sales events came from alternative investments.
Private Banking produced more than $13 million of sales events, with activity tied to new regional bank wins, conversions from TRUST 3000 to the SEI Wealth Platform, and demand for professional services, including SEI Data Cloud. Denham said Private Banking also executed contract renewals representing $13 million of annualized revenue during the quarter, following $34 million in the first quarter.
Across Advisors and Institutional, net sales events were modestly negative. Denham said SEI continues to see demand for newer offerings such as ETFs and separately managed accounts, though those products generally carry lower fee rates than traditional mutual funds.
Private Markets, ETFs and Stratos Highlight Growth Plans Hicke pointed to several growth investments that he said currently contribute little to financial results but could become meaningful over time. One focus is expanding private markets into retail and retirement channels. He said SEI’s registered transfer agency, fund administration platform and trust company create a “full-stack capability” for managers seeking administration, transfer agency, investor servicing, compliance and operational infrastructure.
Hicke said SEI believes its retail alternatives and private markets retirement initiatives have the potential to become a business generating more than $100 million of annual run-rate revenue within five years.
SEI also continues to expand its asset management strategy. Hicke said the company launched its latest active factor ETF, SEUS, bringing its ETF lineup to 10 funds. He said SEI’s ETF business has grown from $3 billion to more than $8 billion over the past 12 months. He also cited SEI’s recently announced partnership with Carlyle as an example of product development tied to market opportunity.
Stratos, SEI’s advisor-focused platform, also remains a focus. Hicke said SEI advisors are showing interest in succession, liquidity and growth solutions without leaving the company’s ecosystem. Denham said Stratos contributed $21 million of revenue in the quarter, up 11% from the first quarter, and generated $2 million of operating profit before non-controlling interests. Excluding acquisition-related intangible amortization, Stratos EBITDA exceeded $9 million.
Technology and AI Investments Continue Management also emphasized investments in data, automation and artificial intelligence. Hicke said enhancements to SEI Data Cloud and the IMS platform are helping clients access information faster, simplify integrations, reduce operational complexity and make better use of data.
Sneha Shah, a member of SEI’s executive management team, said clients are asking SEI for help as they rethink operating models and evaluate where to use partners. She said SEI is seeing demand for SEI Data Cloud services and professional services tied to AI readiness.
Denham said SEI’s relationship with IBM is intended to support automation and help the company co-create agents for labor-intensive processes. Hicke said the IBM relationship is an enterprise-wide initiative, starting with IMS and expanding to other areas of the company.
Capital Returns and Outlook SEI ended the quarter with nearly $400 million of cash. The company repurchased $112 million of stock during the quarter at an average price of $87. Denham said repurchase activity was lower than in the first quarter, when market volatility created what SEI viewed as a significant opportunity, but said the company expects repurchases to increase from second-quarter levels.
Asked about balancing buybacks with acquisitions, Denham said SEI has roughly a $600 million revolving credit facility that is essentially untouched, giving the company capacity to support M&A activity, including Stratos-related opportunities.
SEI did not provide formal guidance. In response to an analyst question about sustaining low- to mid-teens revenue growth, Hicke said the company does not give guidance but described pipelines as “as strong as they’ve ever been” and said management is encouraged by what it sees for second-half revenue.

Kinder Morgan (KMI - Free Report) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.37 per share, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.31 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.28 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +19.36%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this oil and natural gas pipeline and storage company would post earnings of $0.38 per share when it actually produced earnings of $0.48, delivering a surprise of +26.32%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates three times.
Kinder Morgan, which belongs to the Zacks Oil and Gas - Production and Pipelines industry, posted revenues of $4.48 billion for the quarter ended June 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.33%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $4.04 billion. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates four times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Kinder Morgan shares have added about 17.8% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 9.7%.
What's Next for Kinder Morgan?While Kinder Morgan has outperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Kinder Morgan was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.33 on $4.42 billion in revenues for the coming quarter and $1.49 on $18.17 billion in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Oil and Gas - Production and Pipelines is currently in the bottom 11% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the same industry, Enbridge (ENB - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended June 2026. The results are expected to be released on July 31.
This oil and natural gas transportation and power transmission company is expected to post quarterly earnings of $0.44 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -6.4%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 1% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.
Enbridge's revenues are expected to be $11.03 billion, up 2.6% from the year-ago quarter.

FDA přijala k přezkumu žádost Revolution Medicines o schválení daraxonrasibu pro dříve léčený metastatický karcinom pankreatu. Žádost stojí na výsledcích fáze 3 RASolute 302.
REDWOOD CITY, Calif., July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revolution Medicines, Inc. (Nasdaq: RVMD), a late-stage clinical oncology company developing targeted therapies for patients with RAS-addicted cancers, today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted for review the company’s New Drug Application (NDA) for daraxonrasib, an oral RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor, for previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
“The FDA’s acceptance of the daraxonrasib NDA is an important step in the regulatory review process and brings us closer to the possibility of offering patients a new targeted medicine for previously treated metastatic pancreatic cancer,” said Mark A. Goldsmith, M.D., Ph.D., chief executive officer and chairman of Revolution Medicines. “Daraxonrasib is an oral targeted medicine designed to inhibit RAS, the main cause of pancreatic cancer, and the application is supported by unprecedented results from the Phase 3 RASolute 302 trial. These findings underscore the potential for daraxonrasib to become a new standard of care and to help define a new class of RAS‑targeted medicines for this disease. We look forward to continuing to work closely with the FDA as the agency reviews the application, and with other global regulatory authorities as we advance our efforts to bring daraxonrasib to patients as quickly as possible.”
The NDA is based on results from the global, randomized Phase 3 RASolute 302 trial, evaluating daraxonrasib versus standard of care cytotoxic chemotherapy in patients with previously treated metastatic PDAC, with or without an identified tumor RAS mutation. The trial met all primary and key secondary endpoints, including unprecedented improvements in overall survival and progression-free survival. In addition, daraxonrasib exhibited a manageable safety profile and patients treated with daraxonrasib reported significantly delayed deterioration in cancer-related pain, overall global health status and quality of life, compared to those treated with chemotherapy. Results from the RASolute 302 trial were presented at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting with simultaneous publication in The New England Journal of Medicine.
Daraxonrasib was selected for the FDA Commissioner’s National Priority Voucher pilot program, which is designed to accelerate the review of medicines that address key national health priorities. The FDA previously granted daraxonrasib Breakthrough Therapy Designation and Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of patients with previously treated metastatic PDAC.
The Company recently announced that the European Medicines Agency’s (EMA) Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use has begun a phased review of daraxonrasib, allowing data to be evaluated as they become available before submission of a full marketing authorization application. Daraxonrasib has also received orphan medicine designation for the treatment of pancreatic cancer, and high-priority status under EMA’s Cancer Medicines Pathfinder project based on its potential to address a significant unmet need.
About Pancreatic Cancer and Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignancies, characterized by its typically late-stage diagnosis, resistance to standard chemotherapy, and high mortality rate. In the U.S., recent estimates indicate that annually approximately 60,000 people will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and about 50,000 people will die from this aggressive disease.1 Due to the lack of early symptoms and detection methods, most patients are diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) at an advanced or metastatic stage. Metastatic PDAC remains one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths in the U.S., with a five-year survival rate of approximately 3%.2,3
About Daraxonrasib
Daraxonrasib is an investigational, oral RAS(ON) multi-selective, noncovalent tri-complex inhibitor that works by suppressing RAS signaling through inhibition of the interaction between both wild-type and mutant RAS(ON) proteins and their downstream effectors. It is designed to target cancers driven by a broad range of common RAS genotypes, including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and colorectal cancer. Daraxonrasib is being advanced through a global Phase 3 registrational program comprising four trials, including the completed RASolute 302 trial and three additional trials in patients with PDAC and metastatic RAS mutant NSCLC.
About the RASolute 302 Clinical Trial
RASolute 302 (NCT06625320) is a global, randomized Phase 3 registrational clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daraxonrasib as a monotherapy in patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In the trial, patients were randomized to receive either an oral dose of 300 mg daraxonrasib once daily or investigator’s choice of four different cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens, which represent standard of care across the globe. The trial enrolled patients with metastatic PDAC harboring a wide range of RAS variants, including those with RAS G12 mutations (such as G12D, G12V, and G12R), as well as patients without an identified tumor RAS mutation (wild type).
The primary endpoints of the RASolute 302 trial were progression-free survival (PFS), as assessed by a Blinded Independent Central Review according to RECIST 1.1, and overall survival (OS) in patients with tumors harboring RAS G12 mutations. Secondary endpoints included PFS and OS in all enrolled patients (the intent-to-treat population) encompassing patients with and without identified tumor RAS mutations, as well as objective response rate, duration of response, and patient-reported quality of life.
About Revolution Medicines, Inc.
Revolution Medicines is a company developing novel targeted therapies for patients with RAS-addicted cancers. The company’s R&D pipeline comprises RAS(ON) inhibitors designed to suppress diverse oncogenic variants of RAS proteins. The company’s RAS(ON) inhibitors daraxonrasib (RMC-6236), a RAS(ON) multi-selective inhibitor; elironrasib (RMC-6291), a RAS(ON) G12C-selective inhibitor; zoldonrasib (RMC-9805), a RAS(ON) G12D-selective inhibitor; and RMC-5127, a RAS(ON) G12V-selective inhibitor, are currently in clinical development. Additional development opportunities in the company’s pipeline focus on RAS(ON) mutant-selective inhibitors, including RMC-0708 (Q61H) and RMC-8839 (G13C).

Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction(2)
On April 1, 2026, the Corporation completed its acquisition of Blue Foundry Bancorp and Blue Foundry Bank became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. On July 11, 2026, Blue Foundry Bank merged with and into Fulton Bank. As a result of the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction, the Corporation acquired total assets with preliminary fair values of approximately $2.1 billion including total loans with a preliminary fair value of approximately $1.6 billion and investments with a fair value of $226.5 million. The Corporation assumed total liabilities with a fair value of $1.8 billion including total deposits with a fair value of $1.5 billion and borrowings with a fair value of $276.0 million. Financial Highlights
Second quarter of 2026 operating results of $0.60 per diluted share(1) were impacted by the following items:
Net interest margin remained solid at 3.60%, representing a two basis point increase from the prior quarter. Non-interest income increased $9.5 million to $79.3 million compared to $69.8 million in the prior quarter. Non-interest expense increased $30.7 million to $231.0 million compared to $200.3 million in the prior quarter. Operating non-interest expense increased $19.9 million to $210.6 million(1) compared to $190.7 million in the prior quarter. Provision for credit losses was $4.9 million resulting in an allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans of $382.6 million, or 1.48% of total net loans as of June 30, 2026. The initial allowance for credit losses on loans acquired in the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction was $31.0 million. Common equity tier 1 capital ratio(3) increased to approximately 12.1% compared to 11.9% in the prior quarter. During the second quarter of 2026, 525,000 shares of the Corporation's common stock were repurchased under the 2026 Repurchase Program(4) at a cost of $11.1 million or an average of $21.19 per share. As of June 30, 2026, the Corporation repurchased $35.6 million of common stock under the 2026 Repurchase Program. The following items highlight notable changes in the components of net income in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2026:
Net interest income increased $22.2 million to $284.3 million driven by a $17.5 million increase attributable to the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. A $32.6 million increase in interest income on net loans, a $2.9 million increase in interest income on investment securities and a $2.6 million increase in interest income in other interest-earning assets were partially offset by a $10.9 million increase in interest expense on deposits and a $4.9 million increase in interest expense on borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities. Purchase loan mark accretion from loans acquired in the Republic Transaction(5) was $9.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $10.3 million in the prior quarter. Purchase loan mark accretion from loans acquired in the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction was $5.2 million in the second quarter of 2026. Interest expense on borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities included approximately $2.4 million from the Corporation's $195.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 3.250% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2030 that were redeemed on June 15, 2026. Non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) was $79.3 million compared to $69.8 million in the prior quarter. The $9.5 million increase was primarily attributable to a $7.3 million increase in income from equity method investments, reflected in other income, that included $6.9 million of income recognized from an equity method investment that was sold during the quarter. Compared to the prior quarter, mortgage banking income increased by $1.0 million. Non-interest expense was $231.0 million compared to $200.3 million in the prior quarter. The $30.7 million increase was primarily due to an $11.2 million increase in acquisition-related expenses and a $10.3 million increase in salaries and employee benefits expense driven by a $6.2 million increase as a result of the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction and a $3.5 million increase in incentive compensation expense. Increases of $2.2 million and $1.8 million in other outside services expense and data processing and software expense, respectively, were primarily driven by the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. Other non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2026 included a $2.1 million charge incurred related to merging two employee pension plans and $0.8 million of debt extinguishment costs. Balance Sheet Summary
Total net loans increased $1.7 billion to $25.9 billion compared to $24.3 billion as of March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily due to a $1.6 billion increase in loans, based on preliminary fair values, as a result of the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. Excluding the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction, net loans increased $102.6 million with an increase of $206.9 million in consumer loans(6), partially offset by a decrease of $104.3 million in commercial loans(6). Deposits totaled $28.3 billion, a $1.5 billion increase compared to $26.8 billion as of March 31, 2026. The increase was primarily due to a $1.2 billion increase in deposits as a result of the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. Excluding the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction, net deposits increased $249.2 million due to increases of $257.4 million in brokered deposits, $189.4 million in savings deposits and $76.4 million in time deposits, partially offset by decreases of $155.6 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $118.5 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. On May 5, 2026, the Corporation issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.950% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2036. On June 15, 2026, the Corporation redeemed $195.0 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding 3.250% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2030. Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality
The provision for credit losses totaled $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to $14.4 million in the first quarter of 2026. The allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans was $382.6 million, or 1.48% of total net loans as of June 30, 2026, compared to $367.5 million, or 1.51% of total net loans as of March 31, 2026. The increase was largely due to a $28.7 million increase in the allowance for credit losses as a result of the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. Non-performing assets were $187.1 million, or 0.54% of total assets, as of June 30, 2026, in comparison to $177.5 million, or 0.55% of total assets, as of March 31, 2026. Non-performing assets include $16.4 million from the Blue Foundry Bancorp Transaction. Annualized net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2026 were 0.34% of total average loans in comparison to 0.25% in the prior quarter.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release may contain forward-looking statements with respect to the Corporation's financial condition, results of operations and business. Forward-looking statements are any statement that does not relate to historical or current facts and can be identified by the use of words such as "may," "should," "will," "could," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "continue," "anticipates," "believes," "plans," "expects," "future," "intends," "projects," the negative of these terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements may include projections of, or guidance on, the Corporation's future financial performance, expected levels of future expenses, including future credit losses, anticipated growth strategies, descriptions of new business initiatives and anticipated trends in the Corporation's business or financial results.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts, nor assurance of future performance. Instead, the statements are based on current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of the Corporation's business, plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of the Corporation's control, and actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not unduly rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement is based only on information currently available and speaks only as of the date when made. The Corporation undertakes no obligation, other than as required by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Numerous factors could cause the Corporation's actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: the impact of adverse conditions in the economy and financial markets; trade policies and the imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs; the impacts of events affecting the financial services industry; the effects of actions by the federal government, including those of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and other government agencies, that impact the money supply and market interest rates; the effects of market interest rates and the relative balances of interest rate-sensitive assets to interest rate-sensitive liabilities on net interest margin and net interest income; the composition of the Corporation's loan portfolio and potential exposure to increased credit risk; the effects of changes in interest rates; investment securities gains and losses, including declines in the fair value of securities; disruptions in liquidity markets; capital and liquidity strategies; the Corporation's ability to generate capital internally or raise capital on favorable terms; the effects of competition; possible goodwill impairment charges; the impact of operational risks; the loss of, or failure to safeguard, confidential or proprietary information; the Corporation's failure to identify and promptly address cybersecurity risks; the impact of failures of the Corporation's third-party vendors to perform in accordance with contractual arrangements; the effects of concerns about other financial institutions on the Corporation; potential losses in connection with repurchase and indemnification payments related to sold loans; the effects of climate change on the Corporation's business and results of operations; the effects of increases in non-performing assets; the determination of the allowance for credit losses; the effects of the extensive level of regulation and supervision to which the Corporation and Fulton Bank are subject; changes in law, regulation and government policy; the continuing impact of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; potential negative consequences resulting from regulatory violations, investigations and examinations; the effects of adverse outcomes in litigation and governmental or administrative proceedings; the effects of changes in U.S. federal, state or local tax laws; the effects of the significant amounts of time and expense associated with regulatory compliance and risk management; the Corporation's ability to realize anticipated reductions in non-interest expense and increases in revenue from strategic initiatives implemented from time to time; risks related to the acquisition of Blue Foundry Bancorp; completed and potential future acquisitions may affect costs and the Corporation may not be able to successfully integrate the acquired business or realize the anticipated benefits from such acquisitions; geopolitical conditions, including acts or threats of terrorism, actions taken by the United States or other governments in response to acts or threats of terrorism, military conflicts, wars and other international hostilities; public health crises and pandemics; the Corporation's ability to achieve its growth plans; the Corporation's ability to attract and retain talented personnel; the effects of competition from financial service companies and other companies offering bank services; the Corporation's ability to keep pace with technological changes; the Corporation's reliance on its subsidiaries for substantially all of its revenues; and the effects of negative publicity on the Corporation's reputation. For additional information about factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, refer to the sections entitled "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 and other current and periodic reports, which have been, or will be, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and are, or will be, available in the Investor Relations section of the Corporation's website (www.fultonbank.com) and on the SEC's website (www.sec.gov).

FULTON FINANCIAL CORPORATION
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURES (UNAUDITED)
(dollars in thousands, except per share and share data)
Explanatory note:
This press release contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, that has been derived by methods other than GAAP. The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations and financial condition. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
Adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share ("Adjusted EPS") are non-GAAP financial measures that the Company believes are useful to management, investors and other users of its financial information in evaluating its operating results and understanding its operating trends without the effect of specified factors that management believes affect comparability. The Company believes excluding specified factors that management believes affect comparability provides more comparable assessment of its financial results from period to period. The Company defines adjusted net income as consolidated net income before (i) income tax expense; (ii) inventory impairment; (iii) abandonment of lot option contracts; (iv) restructuring costs; (v) loss on debt extinguishment; (vi) impairment on other investment; and (vii) purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory; in each case, as applicable during a period, less adjusted income tax expense, calculated using the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate after discrete items for the applicable period. Adjusted EPS is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by weighted average common shares – diluted.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
Adjusted homebuilding gross margin excluding inventory impairment (if applicable), interest in cost of home sales revenues, and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory (if applicable), is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP; however, the Company's management believes that this information is meaningful as it isolates the impact that inventory impairment, indebtedness, and acquisitions have on homebuilding gross margin and permits the Company's stockholders to make better comparisons with the Company's competitors, who adjust gross margins in a similar fashion. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be used as a substitute for the Company's GAAP operating results. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures the Company uses as supplemental measures in evaluating operating performance. The Company defines EBITDA as net income before (i) income tax expense, (ii) interest in cost of home sales revenues, (iii) other interest expense (income), and (iv) depreciation and amortization expense. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before inventory impairment, abandonment of lot option contracts, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring costs, loss on debt extinguishment, impairment on other investment, and purchase price accounting for acquired work in process inventory, in each case as applicable during a period. The Company believes EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide an indicator of general economic performance that is not affected by fluctuations in interest rates or effective tax rates, levels of depreciation or amortization, and other specified factors that management believes affect comparability. Accordingly, the Company's management believes that these measurements are useful for comparing general operating performance from period to period. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, consolidated net income in accordance with GAAP as a measure of performance. The presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an indication that the Company's future results will be unaffected by unusual or other specified factors that management believes affect comparability. Each of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is limited as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results of operations as reported under GAAP.

Ratio of Net Homebuilding Debt to Net Capital
The following table presents the Company's ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company calculates this by dividing net homebuilding debt (homebuilding debt less cash and cash equivalents, and cash held in escrow) by net capital (net homebuilding debt plus total stockholders' equity). Homebuilding debt is total debt minus outstanding borrowings under construction loan agreement and mortgage repurchase facilities. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is the ratio of homebuilding debt to capital. The Company believes the ratio of net homebuilding debt to net capital is a relevant and useful financial measure to investors in understanding the leverage employed in its operations and as an indicator of the Company's ability to obtain external financing.

(NYSE: RJF) today reported net revenues of $3.93 billion and net income available to common shareholders of $595 million, or $3.01 per diluted share, for the fiscal third quarter ended June 30, 2026. Quarterly adjusted net income available to common shareholders, which excluded $25 million of acquisition-related expenses, net of tax, was $620 million(1), or $3.14 per diluted share(1).
“Results through the first nine months of the fiscal year were strong, with records set for net revenues, pre-tax income, net income and earnings per share, reflecting the continued execution of our long-term strategies and the strength of a culture built on putting people first and earning trust over generations,” said CEO Paul Shoukry. “Our consistent performance reflects our long-term approach, the resiliency of our diversified business model and the commitment of our associates and advisors to serving clients with integrity. These results were anchored by continued strength in the Private Client Group, where fee-based assets reached a quarter-end record of $1.15 trillion and annualized domestic PCG net new asset growth was 6.6% for the first nine months of the fiscal year. As we enter the fiscal fourth quarter, we do so with significant momentum, supported by historically strong business drivers, robust financial advisor recruiting and strong investment banking pipelines, as well as ample capital and liquidity to support continued growth.”
Record quarterly net revenues increased 16% over the prior year’s fiscal third quarter and 2% over the preceding quarter, largely driven by continued growth in asset management and related administrative fees which grew to approximately $2.1 billion. Quarterly pre-tax income increased 2% over the preceding quarter while net income available to common shareholders increased 10% largely due to a lower effective tax rate. For the fiscal third quarter, annualized return on common equity and annualized adjusted return on tangible common equity were 18.8% and 23.5%(1), respectively.
For the first nine months of the fiscal year, record net revenues of $11.5 billion increased 11%, record earnings per diluted share of $8.52 increased 16%, and record adjusted earnings per diluted share of $8.83(1) increased 17% over the first nine months of fiscal 2025. The Private Client Group and Asset Management segments generated record net revenues in the first nine months of fiscal 2026. The Asset Management and Bank segments produced record pre-tax income during the same period. Annualized return on common equity was 18.1% and annualized adjusted return on tangible common equity was 22.0%(1).

WESTLAKE, Texas, July 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Goosehead Insurance, Inc. (“Goosehead” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GSHD), a rapidly growing independent personal lines insurance agency, today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.
Second Quarter 2026 Highlights
Total Revenues grew 21% over the prior-year period to $113.4 million in the second quarter of 2026Second quarter Core Revenues* of $95.6 million increased 10% over the prior-year periodSecond quarter net income of $17.0 million increased from net income of $8.3 million a year agoEPS of $0.42 per share increased 106% and Adjusted EPS* of $0.64 per share increased 32%, over the prior-year periodNet income margin for the second quarter was 15%Adjusted EBITDA* of $37.9 million increased 30% from $29.2 million in the prior-year periodAdjusted EBITDA Margin* increased 2 percentage points over the prior-year period to 33%Total written premiums placed for the second quarter increased 14% over the prior-year period to $1.34 billionPolicies in force grew 15% from the prior-year period to approximately 2.1 millionCorporate agent headcount of 583 increased 22% compared to the prior-year periodTotal franchise producers of 2,190 increased 5% from the prior-year period *Core Revenue, Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures. Reconciliations of Core Revenue to total revenues, Adjusted EPS to basic earnings per share and Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP, are set forth in the reconciliation table accompanying this release.
“Today we are proud to announce our second quarter results which reflect accelerating momentum across our entire business,” said Mark Miller, CEO. “We delivered strong new business growth in every channel while improving client retention, accelerating premium and policy in force growth rates, and increasing productivity. Our distribution force is healthier than ever, our technology continues to evolve at a significant pace, and the product market is more favorable than it has been in years. We believe Goosehead is well-positioned for continued durable growth and profitability.”
Second Quarter 2026 Results
For the second quarter of 2026, total revenues were $113.4 million, an increase of 21% compared to the corresponding period in 2025. Core Revenues, a non-GAAP measure which excludes contingent commissions, initial franchise fees, interest income, and other franchise revenues, were $95.6 million, a 10% increase from $86.8 million in the prior-year period. Core Revenues are the most reliable revenue stream for the Company, consisting of New Business Commissions, Agency Fees, New Business Royalty Fees, Renewal Commissions, and Renewal Royalty Fees. Core Revenue growth was driven primarily by more policies in their renewal term, supported by an 86% Client Retention rate, and by more new policies placed, driven by growth in the number of Corporate and Franchise sales agents and improved Franchise productivity. This was partially offset by the prior-year recognition of $3.0 million of Renewal Commissions and $1.0 million of Renewal Royalty Fees tied to the release of a constraint on variable consideration for policies placed in earlier periods. The Company grew total written premiums, which we consider to be the leading indicator of future revenue growth, by 14% in the second quarter compared to the corresponding period in prior year.
Total operating expenses for the second quarter of 2026 were $86.8 million, up from $78.4 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted total operating expenses* for the second quarter of 2026 were $75.4 million, up 16% from $64.9 million in the prior-year period. Employee compensation and benefits increased to $54.3 million from $50.4 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted employee compensation and benefits* increased to $49.6 million from $44.4 million in the prior-year period. The increases were primarily due to investments in corporate producers and technology functions. Equity-based compensation decreased to $4.8 million for the period, compared to $6.0 million in the prior-year period. General and administrative expenses increased to $28.4 million from $24.6 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted general and administrative expenses*, increased to $25.4 million from $20.0 million primarily due to investments in technology and professional services to drive growth and continue to improve the client experience. Bad debt expense of $0.5 million decreased compared to the prior-year period.
Net income in the second quarter of 2026 was $17.0 million versus net income of $8.3 million in the prior-year period. Earnings per share and Net Income Margin for the second quarter of 2026 were $0.42 and 15%, respectively. Adjusted EPS* for the second quarter of 2026 was $0.64 per share. Total Adjusted EBITDA* was $37.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $29.2 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted EBITDA Margin* of 33% increased 2 percentage points in the quarter.
*Adjusted total operating expenses, adjusted employee compensation and benefits, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted EPS, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA Margin are non-GAAP measures. For the definition and reconciliation of each non-GAAP measure, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP” below.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures to GAAP
This release includes certain financial performance measures that are not required by, nor presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company refers to these measures as “non-GAAP financial measures.” The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures when planning, monitoring and evaluating its performance and considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, tax position, depreciation, amortization and certain other items that the Company believes are not representative of its core business. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring its performance relative to that of its competitors.
These non-GAAP financial measures are defined by the Company as follows:
"Core Revenue" is a supplemental measure of our performance and includes Renewal Commissions, Renewal Royalty Fees, New Business Commissions, New Business Royalty Fees, and Agency Fees. We believe that Core Revenue is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it summarizes all of our revenues from sales of individual insurance policies."Cost Recovery Revenue" is a supplemental measure of our performance and includes Initial Franchise Fees and Interest Income. We believe that Cost Recovery Revenue is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it summarizes revenues that are viewed by management as cost recovery mechanisms."Ancillary Revenue" is a supplemental measure of our performance and includes Contingent Commissions and Other Franchise Revenues. We believe that Ancillary Revenue is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it summarizes revenues that are ancillary to our core business."Adjusted EBITDA" is a supplemental measure of the Company's performance. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of items that do not relate to business performance. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation, impairment and other gains and losses, contract termination costs, and other non-operating items, including, among other things, certain non-cash charges and certain non-recurring or non-operating gains or losses."Adjusted EBITDA Margin" is Adjusted EBITDA as defined above, divided by total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is helpful in measuring profitability of operations on a consolidated level."Adjusted EPS" is a supplemental measure of our performance, defined as earnings per share (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) before non-recurring or non-operating income and expenses. Adjusted EPS is a useful measure to management and our investors because it eliminates the impact of items that do not relate to business performance and helps measure our profitability on a consolidated level.“Adjusted total operating expenses” is defined as Total operating expenses (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) before equity-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, impairment and other gains and losses, and contract termination costs. This measure is useful to management and our investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring charges.“Adjusted employee compensation and benefits” is defined as Employee compensation and benefits (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) before equity-based compensation. This measure is useful to management and our investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash compensation charges.“Adjusted general and administrative expenses” is defined as general and administrative expenses (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) before impairment and other gains and losses and contract termination costs. This measure is useful to management and our investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash and non-recurring charges. While the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating its business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for revenues, net income, or earnings per share, in each case as recognized in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in the Company’s industry, may calculate such measures differently, which reduces their usefulness as comparative measures.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains certain Non-GAAP measures used by management that we believe are helpful to understand our business. We believe investors should review these Non-GAAP measures along with GAAP net income and cash flows from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities, when evaluating an equity REIT's operating performance. Our definitions and calculations of these Non-GAAP financial and operating measures and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable. These Non-GAAP financial and operating measures do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor do they represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity, nor are they indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. For definitions and reconciliations of Non-GAAP measures to our financial statements as prepared under GAAP, refer to both Reconciliation of Net Income to Non-GAAP Financial Measures on page 6 and Non-GAAP Financial Measures Definitions and Reconciliations on pages 16-19.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Definitions and Reconciliations
The following Non-GAAP financial measures definitions do not include adjustments in respect to membership upgrade revenue: (i) FFO; (ii) Normalized FFO; (iii) EBITDAre; (iv) Adjusted EBITDAre; (v) Property operating revenues; (vi) Property operating expenses, excluding property management; and (vii) Income from property operations, excluding property management.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (FFO). We define FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate, impairment charges and adjustments to reflect our share of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with our interpretation of standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
We believe FFO, as defined by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, is generally a measure of performance for an equity REIT. While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance for equity REITs, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net income as defined by GAAP, and it should not be considered as an alternative to these indicators in evaluating liquidity or operating performance.
NORMALIZED FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS (NORMALIZED FFO). We define Normalized FFO as FFO excluding non-operating income and expense items, such as gains and losses from early debt extinguishment, including prepayment penalties, defeasance costs, transaction/pursuit costs and other, and other miscellaneous non-comparable items. Normalized FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to Normalized FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same methodology for computing this amount.
FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR DISTRIBUTION (FAD). We define FAD as Normalized FFO less non-revenue producing capital expenditures.
We believe that FFO, Normalized FFO and FAD are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe that by excluding the effect of gains or losses from sales of properties, depreciation and amortization related to real estate and impairment charges, which are based on historical costs and may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, FFO can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and among other equity REITs. We further believe that Normalized FFO provides useful information to investors, analysts and our management because it allows them to compare our operating performance to the operating performance of other real estate companies and between periods on a consistent basis without having to account for differences not related to our normal operations. For example, we believe that excluding the early extinguishment of debt and other miscellaneous non-comparable items from FFO allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the sustainability of operating performance in future periods because these costs do not affect the future operations of the properties. In some cases, we provide information about identified non-cash components of FFO and Normalized FFO because it allows investors, analysts and our management to assess the impact of those items.
INCOME FROM PROPERTY OPERATIONS, EXCLUDING PROPERTY MANAGEMENT. We define Income from property operations, excluding property management as rental income, membership subscriptions and upgrade sales, utility and other income less property and rental home operating and maintenance expenses, real estate taxes, membership sales and marketing expenses, excluding property management expenses. Property management represents the expenses associated with indirect costs such as off-site payroll and certain administrative and professional expenses. We believe exclusion of property management expenses is helpful to investors and analysts as a measure of the operating results of our properties, excluding items that are not directly related to the operation of the properties. For comparative purposes, we present bad debt expense within Insurance and other in the current and prior periods. We believe that this Non-GAAP financial measure is helpful to investors and analysts as a measure of the operating results of our properties.

EARNINGS BEFORE INTEREST, TAX, DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION FOR REAL ESTATE (EBITDAre) AND ADJUSTED EBITDAre. We define EBITDAre as net income or loss excluding interest income and expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, gains or losses from sales of properties, impairment charges, and adjustments to reflect our share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated joint ventures. We compute EBITDAre in accordance with our interpretation of the standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to EBITDAre reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.
We define Adjusted EBITDAre as EBITDAre excluding non-operating income and expense items, such as gains and losses from early debt extinguishment, including prepayment penalties and defeasance costs, transaction/pursuit costs and other, and other miscellaneous non-comparable items.
We believe that EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre may be useful to an investor in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity because the measures are widely used to measure the operating performance of an equity REIT.

CORE PORTFOLIO or CORE. The Core properties include properties we owned and operated during all of 2025 and 2026. We believe Core is a measure that is useful to investors for annual comparison as it removes the fluctuations associated with acquisitions, dispositions and significant transactions or unique situations.
NON-CORE PORTFOLIO or NON-CORE. The Non-Core properties in 2026 include properties that were not owned and operated during all of 2025 and 2026, including six properties in Florida impacted by Hurricane Ian, two properties in California that were impacted by storm and flooding events and seven acquired RVC properties. The 2026 guidance reflects Non-Core properties in 2026, which includes properties not owned and operated during all of 2025 and 2026.
NON-REVENUE PRODUCING IMPROVEMENTS. Represents capital expenditures that do not directly result in increased revenue or expense savings and are primarily comprised of common area improvements, furniture and mechanical improvements.
FIXED CHARGES. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, amortization of note premiums and debt issuance costs. The fixed charges ratio is calculated by dividing the trailing twelve months Adjusted EBITDAre by the sum of fixed charges and preferred stock dividends, if any, during the same period.
