Mondi PLC (LSE:MNDI) shares were the biggest fallers on the FTSE 100 on Monday morning after the paper and packaging maker reported a fall in profits in the third quarter of 2025, with trading expected to remain challenging.

Underlying EBITDA of €223 million was reported for the quarter, including €20 million of forestry fair value gains, compared to €274 million in the second quarter and €290 milllion in the first. 

Volumes were affected by subdued demand, while selling prices declined across most grades, with maintenance shutdowns extended to manage production in softer markets.

Performance was weaker than the second quarter in both corrugated and flexible packaging, while uncoated fine paper was significantly impacted by lower demand and prices.

Mondi said it expects trading conditions to stay difficult through year-end but highlighted its focus on operational efficiency, cost control and cash generation.

Chief executive Andrew King said: “Trading conditions in the third quarter were challenging, with softer volumes and declining prices across most pulp and paper grades.”

He added that the group remains focused on margin management and cost optimisation to navigate current headwinds.

The company has completed its major expansion projects and is now prioritising productivity ramp-up and cash generation.

Mondi shares fell 14.1% to 899p in early trading.

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that purchasers or acquirers of Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) securities between February 18, 2025 and July 31, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), have until Friday, November 14, 2025 to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Fluor class action lawsuit. Captioned Maglione v. Fluor Corporation, No. 25-cv-02496 (N.D. Tex.), the Fluor class action lawsuit charges Fluor and certain of Fluor’s top current and former executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

If you suffered substantial losses and wish to serve as lead plaintiff of the Fluor class action lawsuit, please provide your information here:

https://www.rgrdlaw.com/cases-fluor-corporation-class-action-lawsuit-fluor.html

You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected].

CASE ALLEGATIONS: Fluor provides engineering, procurement, and construction; fabrication and modularization; and project management services. Fluor’s infrastructure projects include work on the Gordie Howe International Bridge (“Gordie Howe”), as well as the Interstate 365 Lyndon B. Johnson (“I-635/LBJ”) and Interstate 35E (“I-35”) highways in Texas, according to the complaint.

The Fluor class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) costs associated with the Gordie Howe, I-635/LBJ, and I-35 projects were growing because of, among other things, subcontractor design errors, price increases, and scheduling delays; (ii) the foregoing, as well as customer reduction in capital spending and client hesitation around economic uncertainty, was having, or was likely to have, a significant negative impact on Fluor’s business and financial results; and (iii) accordingly, Fluor’s financial guidance for fiscal year 2025 was unreliable and/or unrealistic, the effectiveness of Fluor’s risk mitigation strategy was overstated, and the impact of economic uncertainty on Fluor’s business and financial results was understated.

The Fluor class action lawsuit further alleges that, on August 1, 2025, Fluor reported second quarter 2025 non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.43, missing consensus estimates by $0.13, and revenue of $3.98 billion, representing a 5.9% year-over-year decline and missing consensus estimates by $570 million. Defendants blamed these disappointing results on, among other things, growing costs in multiple infrastructure projects due to subcontractor design errors, price increases, and scheduling delays, as well as reduced capital spending by customers, the complaint alleges. Fluor also provided a negatively revised financial outlook for fiscal year 2025, citing “client hesitation around economic uncertainty and its impact on new awards and project delays and results for the quarter.” The complaint also alleges that Fluor’s CEO, defendant James R. Breuer, further disclosed during an earnings call that the infrastructure projects that had negatively impacted Fluor’s second quarter 2025 results were the Gordie Howe, I-635/LBJ, and I-35 projects. Following this news, the price of Fluor stock fell by more than 27%, according to the Fluor class action lawsuit.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Fluor securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the Fluor class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Fluor class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Fluor class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Fluor class action lawsuit.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Sigma Lithium Corporation (TSXV/NASDAQ: SGML, BVMF: S2GM34), a leading global lithium producer dedicated to powering the next generation of electric vehicles with carbon neutral, socially and environmentally sustainable lithium concentrate, announces today that it was included as a case study in a key industry report.

RECOGNITION FOR SUSTAINABILITY EXCELLENCE

The report "Climate and Nature Solutions in Brazil" was published by (i) Instituto Itausa, an organization dedicated to financing and supporting initiatives that promote sustainable development in Brazil, which is part of the Brazilian Itausa industrial conglomerate; and (ii) Instituto Arapyau, a Brazilian philanthropic organization founded by Guilherme Leal, a major shareholder of the Brazilian cosmetics company Natura and a former presidential candidate for the "Green Coalition" with Marina Silva, current Minister of The Environment and Climate Change of Brazil.

The study recognized Sigma Lithium for excellence in sustainability as a "global reference in green lithium, with 100% renewable energy, 90% water recirculation, no use of tailings dams, dry processing and gravity separation"  which is "a method summarized in the "Quintuple Zero" formula (that is, the effort to produce lithium without dams, chemicals, carbon emissions, fossil energy and water consumption)."

The report mentioned Sigma Lithium as having successfully adapted "traditional iron and bauxite mining practices to a lithium mine, with international recognition for its ESG practices." The report further added that Sigma Lithium "invests in reforestation and compensation programs in the Cerrado (Brazilian scrubland) areas, planting native species. This model is aimed at creating ecological corridors and promoting social inclusion in environmental restoration, integrating biodiversity and generation of income."

UPGRADES MINING OPERATIONS TARGETING HIGHER EFFICIENCY

Sigma Lithium also announces that the Company is upgrading its mining operations to increase its efficiency and competitiveness: mining operations are responsible for over 66% of Sigma Lithium´s "plant gate costs", while industrial operations represent just 33% (one of the most efficient in the lithium industry).

The upgrade is part of a comprehensive review of mining operations that commenced after significant improvements were executed in the Greentech industrial plant in 4Q24. The improvements increased the plant's recovery rates and demonstrated that it would be possible to further unlock production capacity if the plant operated at a constant rate. This operational cadency could be achieved by reducing the fluctuations in the rate of delivery of fresh ore from the mining operations. Improved ore cadence is now expected to increase production at the industrial Greentech plant, while decreasing overall plant gate costs by approximately 20%.

The execution of the upgrade, which will include a change in suppliers, was initially planned for Phase 2, but the Company decided that it should be started earlier, during 3Q25, in response to the decline in lithium prices from April to August 2025 and to extend Sigma Lithium's stellar health and safety standards to the mining operations. The Company aims to bridge the gap between the safety record of the mining operations and that of the industrial Greentech plant, which is excellent and one of the factors that determine Sigma Lithium´s leadership in sustainability. At the end of the second quarter of 2025, the industrial Greentech plant accumulated more than 2 years (735 days) without Lost Time Injury (LTI) and zero fatalities, positioning it amongst the safest operations according to the International Council of Metals and Mining (ICMM).

As part of the upgrade, Sigma Lithium will be replacing its mining equipment. A demobilization was started last week, and a re-mobilization is planned to commence this week, when the new supplier is expected to promptly restart activities. The amount of downtime required for the switch and the resulting loss of production is being kept to a minimum, while the targeted efficiency gains are on track to being achieved: mining equipment is being modernized with an increase in the size of mining trucks, which will enable a decline in the size of the overall fleet and a reduction of traffic at the mine, enhancing mine safety.

In addition to raising production capacity, the upgrade should prepare Sigma Lithium´s mine to feed a second Greentech plant more rapidly by improving mine geometry, which will help the Company deliver its planned capacity expansion scheduled to come onstream in 2026.

ENGAGED IN HIGH LEVEL GLOBAL ENERGY TRANSITION DIALOGUES AT CLIMATE WEEK NY

Sigma Lithium´s participation highlights its leadership in aligning private capital with public policy to deliver sustainable mineral supply chains for the energy transition and contribute to global decarbonization goals.

The Company's team, led by Ana Cabral, Co-Chair and CEO, and Daniel Abdo, VP of Business Development and International Affairs, played an active role in several high-level forums, as part of a continuing commitment to participate in events related to the energy transition and promote the development of the Jequitinhonha Valley, underscoring its mission to power the energy transition with environmentally and socially responsible practices:

Sigma Lithium joined the United Nations Energy Forum meetings, with leaders and experts from governments, international organizations, businesses, and youth groups around the world. The event was convened by UN-Energy on the margins of the UN General Assembly High-Level Week. Participants strategized how best to scale up innovative solutions and mobilize resources and partnerships on long-standing issues with the aim of accelerating progress towards Sustainable Development Goal 7 (clean and affordable energy for all) and a net-zero future. Also launched at the Forum, was a policy brief on linkages between clean energy for all (SDG7) and employment and economic growth (SDG8), presented by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA); as well as a policy brief on a just energy transition in least developed and landlocked developing countries.
Our Co-Chair and CEO, Ana Cabral, attended Nasdaq's "Building the Future Summit", where global industry leaders from the world's largest companies and investors, such as Microsoft, Google, ENEC-UAE and Global Infrastructure Partners, discussed themes such as the requirements to scale energy infrastructure, including battery storage, to supply clean power for data centers to support the growth of AI.

Nyxoah Announces First U.S. Commercial Patients Implanted with Genio® System

Early Commercial Launch Demonstrates Strong Physician Demand, Successful Pre-Authorizations, and Widespread Payor Coverage

Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium – October 6, 2025 7:00 CET / 1:00 ET – Nyxoah SA (Euronext Brussels/Nasdaq: NYXH), a medical technology company that develops breakthrough treatment alternatives for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), today announced that the first U.S. commercial patients have been successfully implanted with the Genio® system following FDA approval.

"We are thrilled to announce that the first commercial patients have now received Genio implants, marking a significant milestone in bringing this innovative therapy to OSA patients in the U.S.," said Olivier Taelman, Chief Executive Officer. "Importantly, we have trained surgeons, obtained Value Analysis Committee (VAC) approvals and achieved successful coverage from major payors including CMS. What's also particularly encouraging is the strong demand we're seeing from physicians, with surgeons actively reaching out for training opportunities, many of whom already have patients lined up for implants. These early leading indicators give us confidence that we're building the right foundation for the sustained adoption of Genio moving forward.”

Andrew T. Huang, MD FACS, Director of Sleep Surgery at Baylor College of Medicine implanted the first Genio devices at Townsen Memorial Health System in Houston, TX. “I am excited to not only be the first surgeon to perform Genio® implants commercially in the United States but to have completed my first five in one week. It was awesome to see the powerful and symmetric tongue protrusion at the end of each procedure. Like with any new procedure, there is a learning curve, but I’m excited to say the cases took me the same amount of time as my first unilateral HGN implants. The Genio system provides a solution for my patients who do not want two incisions, an implanted battery, and those where bilateral stimulation may be more beneficial to their airway anatomy.,” commented Dr. Huang. “Obstructive sleep apnea continues to represent a significant health burden in our country, and expanding access to new therapeutic options is essential. I am happy this therapy is now available in the US and am honored to help improve access to Genio Therapy by offering it to my patients and helping to train more providers on this amazing procedure.”

The Company is tracking the following metrics which it believes will serve as leading indicators of future revenue growth:

Number of surgeons trained; Number of value analysis committee submissions made; Number of prior authorization submissions; andNumber of accounts opened. About Nyxoah

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, continues to investigate potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders of National Grid plc (NYSE: NGG) resulting from allegations that National Grid plc may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public.

So What: If you purchased National Grid securities you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement. The Rosen Law Firm is preparing a class action seeking recovery of investor losses.

What to do next: To join the prospective class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=41344 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

What is this about: On July 2, 2025, Reuters published an article entitled "'Preventable' National Grid failures led to Heathrow fire, findings say." The article stated that a "fire that shut London's Heathrow airport in March, stranding thousands of people, was caused by the UK power grid's failure to maintain an electricity substation, an official report said on Wednesday, prompting the energy watchdog to open a probe." Further, the article stated that the United Kingdom's Energy minister, Ed Miliband, had "called the report "deeply concerning", after it concluded that the issue which caused the fire was identified seven years ago but went unaddressed by power grid operator National Grid[.]"

On this news, National Grid American Depositary Shares' ("ADSs") fell 5%, on July 2, 2024.

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

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Securities Litigation Partner James (Josh) Wilson Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In PubMatic To Contact Him Directly To Discuss Their Options

If you purchased or acquired securities in PubMatic between February 27, 2025 and August 11, 2025 and would like to discuss your legal rights, call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

NEW YORK, Oct. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against PubMatic, Inc. (“PubMatic” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PUBM) and reminds investors of the October 20, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) that a top DSP buyer was shifting a significant number of clients to a new platform which evaluated inventory differently; (2) that, as a result, PubMatic was seeing a reduction in ad spend and revenue from this top DSP buyer; and (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On August 11, 2025, after the market closed, PubMatic released its second quarter 2025 financial report. In its report, PubMatic’s Chief Financial Officer, Steven Pantelick, revealed that the Company’s outlook reflects “a reduction in ad spend from one of [its] top DSP partners.” The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Rajeev Goel, further revealed that a “top DSP buyer” had “shifted a significant number of clients to a new platform that evaluates inventory differently” causing significant headwinds. Goel stated, in response to the inventory valuation change, the Company would “need to do a better job . . . to prioritize across all the hundreds of billions of daily ad impressions that we have, which subset of those impressions that we send to this DSP.”

On this news, PubMatic’s stock price fell $2.23, or 21.1%, to close at $8.34 per share on August 12, 2025, on unusually heavy trading volume.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.  

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding PubMatic’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

To learn more about the PubMatic class action, go to www.faruqilaw.com/PUBM or call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Securities Litigation Partner James (Josh) Wilson Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In Quanex To Contact Him Directly To Discuss Their Options

If you purchased or acquired securities in Quanex between December 12, 2024 and September 5, 2025 and would like to discuss your legal rights, call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

NEW YORK, Oct. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Quanex Building Products Corporation (“Quanex” or the “Company”) (NYSE: NX) and reminds investors of the November 18, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the Company’s procedures and policies regarding tooling and equipment maintenance in its Tyman Mexico facility were significantly “underinvested”; (2) as a result, the Company’s tooling and equipment conditions had significantly degraded to near “catastrophic” levels; (3) that, as a result of the foregoing, the Company was likely to incur significant costs, “pushing out the timing” of expected benefits from the Tyman integration; (4) that Quanex had previously identified the foregoing issues; and (5) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about the Company’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.

On September 4, 2025, after the market closed, Quanex announced financial results for the third quarter of the 2025 fiscal year. Among other things, the Company disclosed “operational issues related to the legacy Tyman window and door hardware business in Mexico that are ongoing” which “impacted results more than expected during the third quarter of 2025.” Specifically, the Company reported a diluted EPS of ($6.04), compared to $0.77 in the prior year period and an adjusted EBIDTA of $70.30. The Company further disclosed that it was “adjusting for lower expected volumes and pushing out the timing of when [it] expect[s] to realize procurement savings” from the integration of the Tyman business.

Then, on September 5, 2025, the Company held an earnings call pursuant to the Company’s third quarter 2025 financial results. During the earnings call, Chief Executive Officer, George Wilson (“Wilson”) explained “operational challenges” in the Tyman facility in Mexico “negatively impacted EBITDA in the Hardware Solutions segment by almost $5 million in the third quarter alone.” Wilson further explained that the issue was previously “identified midyear” as it got “deeper into the integration” with Tyman, and described how the systems used to “anticipate and plan for tooling repairs” were significantly deficient, indicating it was near “nonexistent.” Wilson stated because Quanex was “underinvested” in “the tooling condition and the equipment condition” it “had to make some changes and fix some things before it was catastrophic.”

On this news, Quanex’s stock price fell $2.73, or 13.1%, to close at $18.18 per share on September 5, 2025, on unusually heavy trading volume. The stock price continued to decline on the subsequent trading day, falling $1.98 or 10.9%, to close at $16.20 per share on September 8, 2025, on unusually heavy trading volume.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.  

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Quanex’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

2.        Acceptance Period

2.1   The period of time during which the holders of ATHEX Shares (the “Shareholders”) may accept the Tender Offer by submitting a relevant written declaration of acceptance (the “Declaration of Acceptance”) to their intermediary (i.e. the bank, brokerage firm, investment services firm or other investment firm with which they cooperate) that is a certified member at the Greek Dematerialized Securities System (the “DSS Participant” and the “DSS”, respectively) through which their ATHEX Shares are registered, starts on 6 October 2025, at 08.00 am (Greek time) and ends on 17 November 2025, at 02:00 p.m. (Greek time) (the “Acceptance Period”).
2.2   Alternatively, for their own facilitation, Shareholders who wish to accept the Tender Offer may, at their own initiative, authorize their DSS Participant through which their ATHEX Shares are registered, to fill-in, sign, submit or dispatch the Declaration of Acceptance and in general to proceed with all necessary actions for the purpose of accepting the Tender Offer on their behalf. Declarations of Acceptance forms will be available through the DSS Participant throughout the Acceptance Period during business days and hours.

3.        The Tender Offer

3.1   As at the Date of the Tender Offer, no ATHEX Shares were held, directly or indirectly, by the Euronext Group.

3.2   The companies of the Euronext Group are acting in concert with the Offeror for the purposes of the Tender Offer, pursuant to article 2, case (e) of the Law. There are no other persons acting in concert with the Offeror for the purposes of the Tender Offer, pursuant to article 2, case (e) of the Law.

3.3   On 30 July 2025, the Offeror and ATHEX entered into a cooperation agreement which details the cooperation between the Offeror and ATHEX in relation to the Tender Offer (the “Cooperation Agreement”). The Cooperation Agreement provides, among others, that ATHEX will not tender the Treasury Shares in the Tender Offer.

3.4   The following members of the Board of Directors of ATHEX owning shares including CEO Ioannis Kontopoulos have provided irrevocable undertakings to tender their shares in the Tender Offer subject to the issuance of a reasoned opinion of ATHEX’s Board of Directors in favor of the Tender Offer:

NameNumber of shares heldGeorge Handjinicolaou15,000Ioannis Kontopoulos95,000 3.5   Other than the Cooperation Agreement and the aforementioned written statements received by the Offeror from the ATHEX directors, there are no special agreements relating to the Tender Offer or the exercise of rights arising from the ATHEX Shares to which the Offeror is a party.

4.        Consideration

4.1   In consideration for every ATHEX Share lawfully and validly tendered in the Tender Offer, and in accordance with the first clause of paragraph 1 of article 9 of the Law, Euronext offers 0.050 Consideration Share for 1 ATHEX Share (the “Offer Consideration”). The shares of the Offeror are held in book-entry form through the Central Securities Depository for the Offeror Shares (“Euronext Securities Milan”).

4.2   In the event that fractional balances of the Offeror's shares arise during the exchange, these will be paid by the Offeror based on the following formula:

the product of (x) the number of ATHEX Shares held by the investor, (y1) the volume-weighted average trading price (VWAP) of Euronext during the 1 week prior to the settlement date of the Public Offer and (y2) 0.050.

4.3   The Consideration Shares carry the right to dividends, capital returns, distributions from distributable reserves or other distributions that may be made by Euronext after the settlement date of the Tender Offer.

4.4   Euronext will assume payment of the duties levied in favor of the Hellenic Central Securities Depository S.A. (the “ATHEXCSD”) on the registration of the over-the-counter transfer of the Transferred Shares in accordance with the codified decision 18 (Meeting 311/22.02.2021) of the Board of Directors of ATHEXCSD, which would otherwise be payable by the accepting shareholders of ATHEX. Such duties amount to 0.08% and are calculated in accordance with the provisions of such decision with a minimum charge equal to the lower between €20 and 20% of the value of the transfer by any accepting shareholders per securities account.

4.5   To the contrary, it is clarified that shareholders who do not offer the ATHEX Shares they hold in the context of the Tender Offer, including those electing to receive the Cash Consideration in the context of the exercise of the Right of Squeeze-out or the Right to Sell-out, will also be responsible for all charges and taxes that are due in connection with the Tender Offer, including the duties above levied in favor of the Hellenic Central Securities Depository S.A and the Offeror assumes no responsibility nor liability in the payment of said charges and taxes. Notably, based on the letter of the circular issued by the Greek Independent Authority for Public Revenue with reference number Ε.2048/2024, the transfer of the Transferred Shares to the Offeror in consideration for Consideration Shares can be excluded from the tax provided for in article 9 paragraph 2 of Law 2579/1998 in favor of the Greek State provided all conditions mentioned therein are met, which amounts to 0.10%, and is imposed on sales of shares listed on the Athens Stock Exchange, since such transfer does not constitute a sale under the abovementioned provision. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax implications of the Tender Offer that may concern them in Greece or abroad.

4.6   It should be noted that an Accepting Shareholder who elects to receive Consideration Shares, or the financial intermediary (e.g. bank, brokerage firm, investment services firms, investment firm or other type of custodian) with whom such Accepting Shareholder cooperates, will have to inform, prior to the end of Acceptance Period, the Euronext Securities Milan participant with whom such shareholder has a direct or indirect relationship, of the receipt of the Consideration Shares through Euronext Securities Milan at the time settlement of the Tender Offer is completed. If it is not so informed, the said participant may reject the receipt of such shares, or the delivery thereof to such participant on behalf of the relevant Accepting Shareholder might not be possible.

5.        Information Circular

5.1   Beginning on 6 October 2025 and for the whole duration of the Acceptance Period, printed copies of the Information Circular will be available, free of charge, at any of the branches of Eurobank S.A. in Greece. In addition, the Information Circular will also be available through (i) the HCMC website

6.        Results of the Tender Offer

6.1   It is expected that the results of the Tender Offer will be announced on 19 November 2025 and the delivery of the Consideration Shares to the Accepting Shareholders will be completed on or about 24 November 2025, subject to the conditions mentioned in par. 7 below having been met.

7.        Prerequisite and Conditions

7.1   Completion of the Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions and minimum number of shares:
(a)        the        approval        of the        HCMC in relation        to        the        direct change of control of ATHEX;
(b)        the        approval        of the        HCMC in relation        to        the        indirect change of control of ΑΤΗΕΧClear;
(c)        the        approval        of the        HCMC in relation        to        the        indirect change of control of ATHEXCSD;
(d)        the        approval        of RAEWW and the HCMC in        relation to the change of control of ATHEX due to its

participation in Hellenic Energy Exchange (“HenEx”) and EnEx Clearing House (“EnExClear”);
(e)   the approval of the HCMC in relation to the acquisition by the Euronext Reference ShareholdersI of an indirect qualifying holding between 20% and 50% of ATHEX, ATHEXCSD and ATHEXClear; (together with (a)-(e), the “Conditions”); and
(f)   no later than the end of the Acceptance Period, at least 38,759,500 ATHEX Shares, corresponding to at least 67% of ATHEX’s total voting rights whose exercise is not subject to suspension, shall have been lawfully and validly tendered to the Offeror (the “Minimum Number of Shares”). This condition may be amended in accordance with the provisions of the Law.

If (i) the Minimum Number of Shares is not fulfilled as at the end of the Acceptance Period and/or (ii) the Conditions are not satisfied, the Tender Offer will ipso jure lapse, and have no legal effect, and the ATHEX Shares which will have been tendered to the Offeror will be returned to their holders.

The Offeror may revoke the Tender Offer if (i) a competing offer, as provided by the Law, has been submitted, or (ii) subject to the HCMC’s approval, if an unforeseen change in circumstances beyond the control of the Offeror occurs that makes the Tender Offer particularly onerous.

The declarations of acceptance which are submitted cannot be revoked, unless a competing offer, as provided by the Law, has been submitted, in which case the accepting shareholder will be entitled to exercise a revocation right.

8.        Right of Squeeze-out - Right to Sell-out

8.1   If, at the end of the Acceptance Period, Euronext holds at least 52,065,000 ATHEX Shares representing at least 90% of ATHEX’s voting rights in accordance with the Law (the “Relevant Threshold”):

(a)   Euronext will initiate the squeeze-out procedure under the Law to cause any remaining holders of Company Shares to transfer those ATHEX Shares to Euronext, in accordance with the Law (the “Right of Squeeze-Out”); and

(b)   holders of ATHEX Shares who have not accepted the Tender Offer will be entitled, within a period of three (3) months from the publication of the results of the Tender Offer, to exercise the right to sell-out, in accordance with the Law (the “Right to Sell-Out”).

8.2   The consideration offered for each ATHEX Share regarding both the Right of Squeeze-Out and the Right to Sell-Out, is, at the election of the holder:

(a)        Consideration Shares held in book-entry form through Euronext Securities Milan; or

(b)        the cash consideration of €5.98 for each ATHEX Share (the “Cash Consideration”).

8.3   The Cash Consideration meets the criteria of the fair and reasonable consideration, according to article 9 of the Law, since:

(a)   it exceeds the VWAP during the six months preceding the Date of the Tender Offer, where in this case the VWAP of ATHEX Shares during the six months preceding 30 July 2025, is €5.9770

(b)   the Offeror or any persons acting on its behalf or in concert with the Offeror did not acquire ATHEX Shares during the twelve (12) months preceding the Date of the Tender Offer

(c)   a valuation is not required for ATHEX based on the provisions of par. 6 of article 9 of the Law, as none of the conditions referred to therein are met, namely:

- no sanctions have been imposed by the Board of Directors of the HCMC for manipulation that took place within the 18-month period preceding the Date of the Tender Offer,

during the six (6) months preceding the Date of the Tender Offer, (i) transactions in ATHEX Shares have been carried out on the Athens Stock Exchange on more than three-fifths (3/5) of the operating days of the relevant market, and specifically, they amounted to 100% of them and (ii) transactions that have been carried out on ATHEX Shares exceed ten percent (10%) of the total shares of ATHEX, and specifically, they amounted to 39% of them.The reasonable and fair consideration as determined by the criteria of paragraph 4 of Article 9 of the Law, exceeds eighty percent (80%) of the accounting value per share, based on the data of the average of the last two published financial statements of Law 3556/2007, on a consolidated basis. 8.4   If the Relevant Threshold is reached or exceeded at the end of the Acceptance Period, the Offeror expects that the Right of Squeeze-out process will be completed within four to eight weeks after Closing. The Offeror intends to apply for the commencement of unconditional listing and trading on Euronext Amsterdam, Euronext Brussels, Euronext Lisbon and Euronext Paris of any Offeror Shares which may be issued as consideration in connection with the Right of Squeeze-out as soon as practicable following completion of the Right of Squeeze-out process.
8.5   If the Relevant Threshold is reached or exceeded at the end of the Acceptance Period, the Right to Sellout will automatically expire upon completion of the Right of Squeeze-Out. As a result, the Offeror expects that completion of the Right to Squeeze-out process will precede the completion of the Right of Sell-out process.
9.        Delisting of the ATHEX Shares from the ATHEX

9.1   If, following completion of the Tender Offer or after the exercise of the Right of Squeeze-out or the Right to Sell-out, as the case may be, the Offeror holds at least 95% of ATHEX’s voting rights, the Offeror intends to request the convocation of a General Meeting of the Shareholders to resolve upon the submission of an application to the HCMC requesting the delisting of the ATHEX Shares from the Athens Stock Exchange, in accordance with article 17 paragraph 5 of Law 3371/2005, at which (General Meeting) the Offeror will exercise its voting rights in favor of such resolution.

9.2   If the percentage of the ATHEX Shares which will be eventually tendered ranges between 67% and below 90%, the ATHEX Shares will continue to trade on the ATHEX.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

The information contained in this announcement does not purport to be full or complete. The exact dates of the Tender Offer may change.

This announcement contains forward-looking statements which are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties which change over time and relate to, amongst others, the business activities and certain plans and objectives that Euronext has in respect of the ATHEX Group and the Euronext Group.

There are many factors (for instance, without limitation, commercial, operational, economic, political and financial), as a consequence of which the actual results and the actual developments may potentially substantially differ from the plans and the objectives of Euronext and the ATHEX Group set out in this announcement. As such, Euronext and the ATHEX Group evolve in a highly competitive landscape and rapidly changing environment, where new risks and uncertainties not specifically described herein this announcement may emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all risks and uncertainties.

Although Euronext believes that, as of the date of this announcement, the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, Euronext cannot assure you that future events will meet these expectations. Moreover, neither Euronext nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. After the date of this announcement, unless Euronext is required by applicable law to update these forward-looking statements, Euronext will not necessarily update any of these forward-looking statements to conform them either to actual results or to changes in expectations.

October 06, 2025 12:34 AM EDT | Source: LD Micro
Santa Monica, California and Addison, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - October 6, 2025) - LD Micro, a premier resource for microcap investors and a wholly owned subsidiary of Freedom US Markets, and MDB Capital Holdings, LLC (NASDAQ: MDBH) ("MDB"), a public venture platform focused on launching category-leading "Big Idea" companies, today announced an important milestone nearly two decades in the making.

MDB has become LD Micro's 2,000th presenting company, marking a new chapter for a platform established in March 2006 by two visionaries seeking a better way to analyze the next generation of breakthrough companies.

"It has been a privilege to watch LD Micro evolve into a cornerstone of the microcap community over these many years," stated Chris Lahiji, Founder of LD Micro. "This platform was created out of a genuine passion for supporting innovative, high-potential businesses and connecting them with investors committed to the public microcap sector. Achieving the milestone of 2,000 presenters, particularly as the universe of U.S. public companies has decreased from 8,000 to approximately 4,000 over the past two decades, underscores our ongoing dedication. We are honored to have MDB Capital (MDBH) join us in celebrating this achievement, and we look forward to their participation at the Main Event at Hotel Del Coronado in less than two weeks."

"MDB Capital is honored to be the 2,000th company to present at LD Micro, a platform we have respected and worked alongside as part of our firm's journey," said Chris Marlett, CEO and Co-Founder of MDB. "For 28 years, MDB has been deeply committed to the microcap public markets, championing them as the preferred channel for game-changing companies to access growth capital. In a time when the number of public companies has declined sharply, we salute Chris Lahiji and the LD Micro team for their dedication in nurturing this ecosystem. We believe a major shift is underway: for today's most promising innovators, going public is once again emerging as a smarter, more impactful path than remaining private. That is precisely why, for the first time, MDB will be presenting at a microcap conference and we are thrilled to do so at LD Micro."

MDB will present at LD Micro on Tuesday, October 21, at 10:30 am.

NEW YORK, Oct. 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Savara Inc. (“Savara” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: SVRA) and reminds investors of the November 7, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) the MOLBREEVI BLA lacked sufficient information regarding MOLBREEVI’s chemistry, manufacturing, and/or controls; (2) accordingly, the FDA was unlikely to approve the MOLBREEVI BLA in its current form; (3) the foregoing made it unlikely that Savara would complete its submission of the MOLBREEVI BLA within the timeframe it had represented to investors; (iv) the delay in MOLBREEVI’s regulatory approval increased the likelihood that the Company would need to raise additional capital; and (v) as a result, Defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On May 27, 2025, Savara issued a press release "announc[ing] that the Company received [a refusal to file] letter from the FDA for the [Biologics License Application] of MOLBREEVI as a therapy to treat patients with autoimmune PAP."

On this news, Savara's stock price fell $0.90 per share, or 31.69%, to close at $1.94 per share on May 27, 2025.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not.  

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Savara’s conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.
