WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of Graphic Packaging Holding Company (NYSE: GPK) between February 4, 2025 and February 2, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important July 6, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.
SO WHAT: If you purchased Graphic Packaging securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.
WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Graphic Packaging class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=64523 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 6, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Graphic Packaging was experiencing, inter alia, significant inventory management issues, as well as significantly reduced demand and volumes and increased costs; (2) defendants downplayed the true scope and severity of the foregoing issues, which were likely to, and did, have a material negative impact on Graphic Packaging’s business and financial results; (3) defendants likewise overstated the strength and sustainability of Graphic Packaging’s business model and operations, as well as its ability to weather ongoing macroeconomic headwinds; (4) accordingly, Graphic Packaging’s previously issued full year 2025 financial guidance was unreliable and/or unrealistic; and (5) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
To join the Graphic Packaging class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=64523 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.
No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

SAN DIEGO, July 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Robbins LLP reminds stockholders that a class action was filed on behalf of all investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Verra Mobility Corporation (NASDAQ: VRRM) securities between February 24, 2026, and May 26, 2026. Verra Mobility Corporation provides smart mobility technology solutions in the United States, Australia, Europe, and Canada. It operates through three segments: Commercial Services, Government Solutions, and Parking Solutions.
For more information, submit a form, email attorney Aaron Dumas, Jr., or give us a call at (800) 350-6003.
What is the class period? February 24, 2026 - May 26, 2026
What are the allegations? Robbins LLP is Investigating Allegations that Verra Mobility Corporation (VRRM) Misled Investors Regarding its Business Prospects
According to the complaint, during the class period, defendants provided investors with material information concerning Verra’s growth potential for full-year 2026, including confidence in the Company’s projected revenue outlook and anticipated growth of its Commercial Services segment, assurances regarding contract renewals with major rent-a-car (“RAC”) customers, and expectations for continued growth in its rental car tolling business. At the same time, defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or concealed material adverse facts concerning the true state of Verra’s relationship with Avis Budget Group (“Avis”), particularly with respect to obtaining a contract extension with Avis. Defendants also minimized concerns that major RAC customers could replace Verra with in-house solutions or outsourced alternatives. By omitting these material facts while making overwhelmingly positive statements about the Company’s prospects, defendants caused Plaintiff and other shareholders to purchase Verra securities at artificially inflated prices.
Plaintiff alleges that on May 26, 2026, Verra issued a press release announcing a termination notice from Avis regarding its contract and accordingly lowered its 2026 full-year financial outlook. Then, on June 1, 2026, the Company announced a sudden and surprising transition of its President and Chief Executive Officer David Roberts. On this news, the price of Verra's common stock declined dramatically from a closing price of $13.08 per share on May 26, 2026, to $3.85 per share on May 27, 2026, a decline of approximately 71%.
What can shareholders do now? You may be eligible to participate in the class action against Verra Mobility Corporation.

Most clinical-stage biotechs are small-cap companies. That makes sense. Not only can it take years -- sometimes over a decade -- to develop novel medicines, but it is also a very risky endeavor. Companies that don't have a single product on the market and generate little to no revenue are very risky. However, several clinical-stage drugmakers have impressive market values compared to their peers. Take Revolution Medicines (RVMD 0.04%), a biotech focused on developing cancer therapies. Its current market cap is about $40 billion. That may seem absurd, but there is a good reason Revolution Medicines is worth what it is.

Revolution's enormous market potential Cancer is one of the leading causes of death, and there are still many forms of the disease for which there is a need for new treatment options. Even within market niches with plenty of options, there is always room for improvement. Given all that, it's not surprising that oncology is by far the largest area in the pharmaceutical industry in terms of annual sales. Medicines that dominate the cancer market make billions, sometimes tens of billions, in revenue every year. Revolution Medicines is looking to tap into this large opportunity. It isn't the only one: Many smaller drugmakers are actively developing cancer drugs. The difference is that Revolution Medicines' leading candidates look incredibly promising.
Consider the company's daraxonrasib, which is being developed to treat pancreatic cancer and lung cancer. Recent clinical trial results highlight why the market is valuing Revolution Medicines so highly. In a phase 3 study in previously treated patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer, where daraxonrasib was pitted against the current standard of care, cytotoxic chemotherapy, the medicine posted a median overall survival rate of 13.2 months, versus 6.7 months for those who received chemotherapy. Daraxonrasib also showed a reasonable safety profile throughout the study.
This trial provided strong evidence that daraxonrasib could become a new standard of care in metastatic pancreatic cancer. And, according to some analysts, this could be an opportunity worth over $10 billion. We haven't even factored in other potential indications for daraxonrasib yet, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), one of the leading causes of cancer death. This could be an even larger -- albeit more competitive -- area for Revolution Medicines to break into with its leading candidate. Further, the company boasts other promising pipeline products. Revolution Medicines is developing zoldonrasib across pancreatic cancer and NSCLC. Zoldonrasib has already posted solid results in clinical trials.

Is it too late to buy the stock? Revolution Medicines' secret lies in its pioneering work in a new class of medicines, RAS(ON) inhibitors, that aim to treat RAS-addicted cancers, which account for 30% of new diagnoses, according to the company. They depend heavily on a broken "growth switch" in cells (the RAS protein) being stuck on, so they keep growing and dividing uncontrollably. While therapies for this category of cancers existed, they typically did not address the root driver of the diseases. Revolution Medicines' approach does that, and now, the company could dominate this area for the next decade or so and reap immense financial benefits in the process.
What's more, with recent phase 3 clinical trial results, Revolution Medicines should launch daraxonrasib within a year, and the medicine promises to be a smashing success. However, Revolution Medicines has already soared by about 409% over the past year. And although its market cap isn't as absurd as some might think, given its status as a clinical-stage biotech, it is still quite high. Even with a strong launch trajectory for daraxonrasib, it will take some time for Revolution Medicines' sales to reach levels that justify its current valuation. And in the meantime, the company still faces the risk of clinical or regulatory setbacks that could sink its share price. So, Revolution Medicines' shares look too expensive at current levels, and investors should probably wait for a pullback before initiating a position.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.
WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition.

Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.
DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) FS KKR Capital overstated the effectiveness of its portfolio restructuring efforts for its nonaccrual companies; (2) FS KKR Capital overstated the valuation of its portfolio investments and/or overstated the effectiveness of FS KKR Capital’s portfolio valuation process; (3) FS KKR Capital overstated the durability of its quarterly distribution strategy; and (4) as a result of the foregoing, defendants’ positive statements about FS KKR Capital’s business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

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

It might seem like a bad time to invest in blue chip dividend stocks. The 10-Year Treasury is trading at a 4.5% yield; the Federal Reserve might raise interest rates in the second half of the year if inflation doesn't cool off; and the S&P 500 looks expensive at 32 times earnings.
All those factors suggest it's smarter to stick with low-risk CDs, T-bills, and investment-grade corporate bonds instead of buying dividend stocks. However, that tepid interest in dividend stocks is creating great buying opportunities for long-term investors who plan to hold their stocks for a few decades rather than a few quarters.

Let's check in on two of my favorite dividend plays in the energy sector -- The Williams Companies (WMB 2.22%) and Brookfield Renewable (BEPC 1.00%) -- and see why they could still turn a modest $3,000 investment into a lot more money over an entire lifetime.
The Williams Companies The Williams Companies operates more than 33,000 miles of pipeline across the United States. As a midstream company, it's well insulated from volatile commodity prices because it charges upstream and downstream companies "tolls" to use its pipelines.

Unlike other midstream companies, which typically transport a mix of natural gas, crude oil, and other resources, Williams primarily handles natural gas through its Transco pipelines that run from Texas to the Eastern Seaboard. That natural gas "superhighway" transports about 30% of the country's natural gas, which powers nearly half of the data centers in the United States.
To capitalize on the rapid expansion of the power-hungry cloud infrastructure and AI markets, Williams builds "behind the meter" (BTM) sites at data centers to provide hyperscalers with a stable flow of natural gas while bypassing traditional utilities.
That's why its year-end backlog jumped from $11.8 billion in 2024 to $15.5 billion in 2025, and it's considered a higher-growth play than more diversified pipeline operators. Analysts expect its adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) to grow at an 11% CAGR from 2025 to 2028. It has an enterprise value of $124.5 billion, but it still looks like a bargain at 15 times this year's adjusted EBITDA.
Williams pays a forward yield of 2.8% and has raised its payout annually for 10 consecutive years. Therefore, it's a great long-term play for investors who want a mix of predictable income and some exposure to the secular growth of the cloud infrastructure and AI markets.
Brookfield Renewable Brookfield Renewable builds hydroelectric dams, wind farms, solar power plants, and other utility-scale green energy projects. It has an operational capacity of 47.3 GW, spanning 35 power markets across 25 countries, with a pipeline of over 200 GW of renewable projects (including 85 GW of advanced-stage projects) in development.

That growth is driven by its long-term renewable power agreements with tech giants like Microsoft and Alphabet's Google, which are expanding their data centers to handle the latest cloud and AI applications. New decarbonization and green manufacturing initiatives are also major catalysts.
Brookfield Renewable pays a forward dividend yield of 4.2%. It's raised its dividend every year since its 2020 launch as a simpler alternative to Brookfield Renewable Partners (BEP 1.04%), which holds the same assets but operates as a master limited partnership (MLP).
From 2025 to 2028, analysts expect its adjusted EBITDA to grow at a steady 6% CAGR. With an enterprise value of $53.1 billion, it trades at just 14 times this year's adjusted EBITDA. So if you're looking for a simple green energy play that will profit from the AI boom over the next few decades, Brookfield Renewable checks all the right boxes.
Intellia Therapeutics (NTLA +1.89%) has been on fire this year. Shares of the clinical-stage biotech have climbed an impressive 83% to date. However, Wall Street remains bullish on the company. Intellia Therapeutics' average price target (according to Yahoo! Finance) is $26.63, implying the stock could jump another 57% from its current levels over the next year. Should investors rush to purchase Intellia Therapeutics' shares based on The Street's bullish sentiments?
Image source: Getty Images.
Why there could be more upside ahead Intellia Therapeutics has performed well largely thanks to strong clinical progress with its leading candidate, lonvo-z, an investigational gene editing medicine for hereditary angioedema (HAE), a rare condition that causes painful and dangerous swelling attacks across the body. Though there are standards of care for this disease that help manage swelling attacks, there is no cure. Intellia Therapeutics hopes it has developed the closest thing to a cure with lonvo-z. In a phase 3 clinical trial, patients treated with a single infusion of lonvo-z experienced an 87% reduction in attacks after a six-month evaluation period compared with those who received a placebo. Further, 62% of patients were completely attack-free, compared with just 11% in the placebo group.
Lonvo-z now looks destined for approval, and Intellia Therapeutics has already begun submitting an application package to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). What's more, Intellia Therapeutics could have another important catalyst over the next 12 to 18 months. The company is developing another gene-editing treatment, nex-z, in collaboration with Regeneron (REGN +0.19%). Nex-z is undergoing a pair of phase 3 studies in patients with a rare, progressive genetic disease called transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis, which can cause severe cardiovascular problems. The company may release data from these clinical trials sometime next year. Provided the results are positive, Intellia's shares may soar.

Significant risks involved The commercial opportunity across lonvo-z and nex-z looks attractive, largely because of the latter. Only one person in 50,000 is affected by HAE, so there could be around 7,000 patients with the disease in the U.S., and about 162,000 worldwide. Of course, lonvo-z won't capture this entire opportunity, even under an optimistic scenario. It may not earn approval outside the U.S., for instance. So, lifetime sales for lonvo-z may not be that impressive. And annual revenue from the therapy will be even lower.
But once we turn to nex-z, the landscape looks different. The hereditary version of ATTR amyloidosis affects 50,000 people worldwide, while the wild type (that comes with age) affects between 200,000 and 500,000 patients. Diagnosis rates are also increasing, particularly for wild-type ATTR amyloidosis, driven by the world's aging population. And thanks to its partnership with the larger, more experienced Regeneron, Intellia Therapeutics could launch this medicine in many markets worldwide.
So, nex-z is central to Intellia Therapeutics' prospects. However, investors should keep in mind that the stock is very risky. Any clinical-stage biotech company tends to be so. True, Intellia's phase 3 success with lonvo-z makes its outlook less uncertain, but a lot could still happen, including unforeseen regulatory setbacks that aren't that uncommon with smaller drugmakers. Further, it's also worth noting that the company has had some issues with nex-z. Last year, the FDA placed clinical trials for the medicine on hold after a patient who received it died due to liver damage.
While the FDA eventually lifted the clinical hold, more safety concerns may eventually arise and, perhaps, disrupt nex-z's progress. Then there is the fact that Intellia Therapeutics develops gene-editing treatments that tend to be very expensive, making it hard to get health insurance companies on board, even when they are effective. This could eventually pose a problem once (if) Intellia Therapeutics launches its medicines.
Is Intellia stock a buy? Intellia Therapeutics' recent phase 3 clinical trial success, its other late-stage candidate, and its strong cash balance all make a good case for the stock. The biotech ended the first quarter with $517.2 million in cash and equivalents, but it also conducted a secondary common stock offering after the period ended, raising about $207 million in gross proceeds. Management thinks the company has enough cash to last until 2028, even without factoring in the money it will receive from lonvo-z, once it hits the market.
However, some of Intellia Therapeutics' success with lonvo-z may already be baked into the stock price, and its shares won't move much once it's approved -- they could even decline if long-term shareholders decide to take that opportunity to pocket some profits. Further, the stock will fall off a cliff if it encounters any issue with nex-z. These factors make Intellia a risky bet. My view is that the stock is unlikely to match Wall Street's price target over the next 12 months.
And although it may have even more upside than that over the next five years if nex-z aces its phase 3 studies, the risks related to a potential failure on that front make the stock suitable only for those comfortable with significant volatility.
Shares of Shutterstock (SSTK 29.03%) plummeted to an all-time low on Wednesday. The stock was down by 29% at 2:45 p.m. ET, as Getty Images (GETY 10.46%) walked away from the Shutterstock merger it announced in January.

The U.K. said, "Not so fast, mate" The deal didn't survive regulatory requirements.
The British Competition and Markets Authority asked the companies to exclude Shutterstock's editorial services from the merger. Including it would result in a "substantial lessening of competition" in the field of U.K. journalism, according to the regulatory body.
The Authority recently cleared this merger on the condition of spinning out Shutterstock's editorial business. That was a deal-breaker for Getty, whose Board of Directors unanimously canceled the merger. Getty will pay down $628 million of debt notes, which were intended to finance the Shutterstock deal.
Getty's stock also fell on the news, dipping as much as 10.5% around 11 a.m. ET. Together, the two image service stocks burned roughly $200 million of investor value today.
Image source: Getty Images. Ironic, I know.
Is there a silver lining here? So where does this leave investors? Two jilted image companies, both trading at bargain-bin valuations, both bleeding red ink on the bottom line, both in the microcap category since 2024.
The merger would have created cost synergies and combined two struggling competitors. Without it, each company faces the generative AI threat alone. Shutterstock has been building AI tools and licensing deals; Getty has pursued similar strategies. Whether either can stabilize on its own remains uncertain. Hitting the panic button due to a single British carve-out requirement looks like a bad idea.
The valuations look tempting on paper, with both stocks trading at price to free cash flow ratios below 6. But "cheap" and "good investment" aren't always the same picture. I'm not drooling over Shutterstock or Getty shares in today's dip.

Shares of AI data center giant IREN (IREN) are moving 3.9% lower at $43.94 this afternoon, pulling back as a choppy tech sector weighs on investors. Despite the blockchain specialist’s debut on the Russell 1000 Index (RUT) earlier this week, the equity is headed for an eighth-straight daily drop—its lowest close since April. However, not all is lost. In fact, IREN is sporting a 14.8% year-to-date lead and now looks to be within a chip shot of a historically bullish trendline.
According to Schaeffer’s Senior Quantitative Analyst Rocky White, IREN is trading within 0.75 times the 260-day moving average's 20-day average true range (ATR), after spending at least 80% of the previous two weeks and 80% of the prior 42 trading sessions above that trendline.
This signal has flashed five times over the last decade, after which the stock was higher one month later 60% of the time, averaging a 19.9% gain. A similar move from the stock’s current perch would put the AI powerhouse at $52.68.

Bears look firmly in control, with 18.7% of the stock’s available float sold short. Short interest rose 26.5% during the past two reporting periods, leaving less than two days for sellers to buy back their bearish bets while IREN is ripe for a squeeze.
Options traders have been bearish as well, leaving more room for bulls should this attention begin to unwind. Specifically, at the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX), IREN stock's 10-day put/call volume ratio of 4.20 ranks in the highest possible percentile of its annual range.
No stock in the S&P 500 has done better than Sandisk (SNDK 10.59%) this year, as it's up an astounding 749% as of June 29. The memory maker's share price has surpassed $2,000, something that would've surprised even the most optimistic investor six months ago.
Rapid growth and a four-figure share price often spark speculation about a stock split, in which a company divides its shares into smaller units. The value of the company doesn't change, but a stock split lowers the share price, making it more accessible to investors and improving liquidity.
Sandisk hasn't announced an upcoming stock split at the time of this writing. Let's consider how likely it is for 2026.
Image source: Getty Images.
Sandisk's incredible run While Sandisk's year-to-date returns are impressive enough, they get even better if you go back to February 2025, when it split off from Western Digital. Since then, Sandisk has climbed 5,500%.
The growth driver is the AI memory bottleneck. AI companies need memory, including high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for AI accelerators and conventional DRAM and NAND flash memory for storing training data and cloud workloads.
Only three companies (SK Hynix, Micron Technology, and Samsung) make HBM, and because it's so profitable, they've prioritized this type of memory. Sandisk is purely a NAND company, so it benefits from the supply constraints in that market. Global NAND revenue reached $46 billion in Q1 2026, a 246% year-over-year increase, according to Counterpoint Research. Sandisk has a 13% share of the NAND market.

Sandisk's latest earnings reflect unprecedented demand for memory. In its third quarter of fiscal year 2026, which ended April 3, Sandisk reported $6 billion in revenue, up 251% year over year. The company's gross margin has also improved significantly, rising from 50.9% in Q2 to 78.4% in Q3.
Industry insiders expect the memory shortage to last into 2028. If that's the case, Sandisk looks like a good bet to continue growing, and a stock split may be in the near future. But there is a caveat to this assumption.
The memory cycle could peak sooner than expected Memory is famously a cyclical business that goes through boom-and-bust patterns. Right now, demand is high, and memory is in short supply. In the past, cycles have eventually peaked, enough supply has shown up to meet demand, and the market flips from scarcity to oversupply. When memory is no longer the hot commodity, the earnings growth stops, and memory stocks decline.
There's no sign of the cycle peaking anytime soon, especially as hyperscalers pour money into AI infrastructure. But the AI market has been showing some cracks. OpenAI is considering delaying its IPO until 2027, and there are concerns that tech companies aren't making enough money from AI to justify the massive capital expenditures. If memory demand slows sooner than expected, Sandisk and other memory makers could be in line for a sharp drop.
I lean yes for Sandisk conducting a stock split by the end of 2026. The company checks all the typical boxes: fast growth, a high price tag, and positive momentum. A stock split could get it into a price range that attracts more retail investors on a budget.
If you're debating whether to invest in Sandisk, it still looks like a company with plenty of room to run, but it's also highly volatile. You may want to build up a position over time by dollar-cost averaging instead of making one large lump-sum investment.
Crucially, you shouldn't wait for a stock split to buy Sandisk if you believe it's a good investment. There's no guarantee management will decide to split the company's stock. Even if it does, the price could be up another $500 or $1,000 by then. If you want to start with a small position, see if your broker offers fractional shares. This is an easy way to invest when you don't want to buy a full share because of the cost.
Total Enrichment Contract Valued at over $1 Billion, Including All Options
Completes Production of Additional 900 Kilograms of HALEU UF6 Ahead of Schedule
Prior Contract Extended for Three Months Ahead of Transition
, /PRNewswire/ -- Centrus Energy (NYSE: LEU) today announced that it has signed a contract to finalize the terms of the competitively-awarded, $900 million task order it received from the U.S. Department of Energy earlier this year. The award will support deployment of large-scale production capacity for High-Assay, Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) as part of Centrus' multi-billion-dollar capacity expansion that will include Low-Enriched Uranium (LEU) as well as HALEU.
"Today's announcement marks another milestone in our expansion, as we pivot from a technology demonstration contract to the new, larger contract aimed at commercial scale production," said Centrus President and CEO Amir Vexler. "The government's investment from this contract will be matched several times over with billions of dollars in capital, including other non-dilutive, non-debt funding as well as customer contracts to restore America's ability to enrich uranium at a large scale."
Transitioning from Demonstration to Commercialization
Centrus won a contract in 2019 to build a cascade of advanced centrifuges in Piketon to demonstrate HALEU production with U.S. technology. That demonstration contract was modified and extended in 2022 to allow for a longer period of HALEU production, and was previously extended through June 30, 2026. While Centrus and the Department have signed a three-month, $15 million extension for HALEU storage, Centrus has now completed all HALEU production called for under the existing demonstration contract. Production of the final 900 kilograms of HALEU UF6 required under that contract was completed in mid-June, two weeks ahead of schedule, with a cumulative total of more than 1,900 kilograms produced over the life of the contract.
With its large-scale expansion underway, Centrus is transitioning from the old demonstration contract to commercialization with the newer, larger enrichment contract. The first new capacity is expected to come online by 2029. In the interim, Centrus intends to privately operate the existing HALEU cascade on a commercial basis to begin supplying the near-term needs of its customers. Centrus is working with the Department on agreements to enable that transition, including a long-term lease extension for the American Centrifuge Plant in Piketon, Ohio.
The new, fixed-price HALEU Enrichment contract calls for Centrus to deploy commercial-scale HALEU production capacity in Piketon. It also includes options, at the Department's discretion, for up to $170 million in HALEU purchases for Departmental missions, the total contract value with all options included is $1.07 billion.
Modular Enrichment Capacity Build-Out
As previously disclosed, Centrus' modular enrichment capacity build out will based on customer demand and capital resources.
The initial build-out will include 12 metric tons of annual HALEU production capacity as well as capacity to meet Centrus existing LEU backlog of $2.4 billion. Subject to customer demand, Centrus can continue expanding production of HALEU and LEU to meet market requirements. Importantly, Centrus' expects the initial build-out to allow it to achieve nth-of-a-kind centrifuge manufacturing costs.
Centrus' multi-billion-dollar expansion project is expected to support thousands of American jobs, including:
1,000 construction jobs and 300 new operating jobs in Ohio, while retaining 150 existing jobs at the Piketon plant. 430 jobs at Centrus' centrifuge manufacturing plant in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and hundreds of additional jobs across Centrus' nationwide network of suppliers. Thousands of indirect jobs in Ohio, Tennessee and across the country. The expansion is underpinned by public and private funding along with commercial contracts, a framework that includes: national security missions, third party investments such as prepayment, direct foreign investment, LEU and HALEU commercial contracts, and Centrus' strong capital position.

July 1 (Reuters) - Elon Musk on Wednesday denied a Wall Street Journal report that SpaceX (SPCX.O), opens new tab showed investors and other stakeholders a prototype of an AI-focused device ahead of its blockbuster IPO.
"Utterly false," Musk said in a post on X, without elaborating.
The Reuters Inside Track newsletter is your essential guide during the World Cup. Sign up here.
The Journal had reported, citing people familiar with the matter, that the prototype handset-like device was designed to run on a proprietary operating system, contained AI technology from xAI and would use Qualcomm's (QCOM.O), opens new tab Snapdragon chips.
The report added that SpaceX had told some investors the project remained in its early stages, with the design still evolving and no certainty the device would ultimately be built.
SpaceX has invested billions of dollars to expand beyond its core launch and satellite internet businesses, pouring money into AI infrastructure, xAI's Grok large language model and plans for space-based computing as Musk seeks to position the company at the center of the AI race.
SpaceX and Qualcomm did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Reuters reported in February that SpaceX had plans to develop a mobile device connected to its Starlink satellite internet constellation that could rival smartphones.
Musk said in January that a Starlink phone was "not out of the question at some point," adding that such a device would be very different from current phones.
Last month, Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab unveiled a prototype AI-powered badge device for workers featuring Qualcomm wearable chips, pitching it as an always-connected assistant that uses AI agents, voice, a touchscreen and a camera to help users complete tasks.

ToplineSpaceX CEO Elon Musk called a recent report the company showed investors a prototype handheld, iPhone-like device designed for interacting with artificial intelligence systems “utterly false”—although reports have continued indicating the company may be trying to expand its retail offerings.

Key FactsAccording to a report in the Wall Street Journal, SpaceX showed some investors a prototype similar to an iPhone but “slimmer,” which would run on SpaceX’s proprietary operating system.
The device would also use AI technology from xAI, which SpaceX absorbed in February, and use chips from Qualcomm, the Journal reported citing people familiar with the matter.
However, the device is reportedly still in a prototype phase—no name for the object has been reported, and it is unclear if it will ever be released to the public.
Musk rejected the report outright, responding to commentary about the device on X by calling it “utterly false.”
The SpaceX chief has frequently pushed back against reports about the company developing an iPhone-like competitor—flatly stating “we are not developing a phone” after a similar report from Reuters in February.
SpaceX did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Forbes.
TangentSpeculation about a possible mobile device from SpaceX comes as the company reportedly plans to expand its business into retail mobile phone service. Chief operating officer Gwynne Shotwell told investors the company was considering plans to offer a terrestrial mobile phone service, the Financial Times first reported last week. The same day, Bloomberg reported the company was in talks with Charter Communications about a partnership to use the internet provider’s ground infrastructure for its phone traffic. SpaceX already partners with T-Mobile to provide direct to cell satellite phone service using its Starlink satellites.
Crucial Quote“SpaceX has a long way to go before successfully manufacturing a consumer device at scale and competing against the leading platforms,” analysts at Vital Knowledge wrote after the report on Wednesday. “Musk-led companies are given a massive benefit of the doubt when it comes to product promises (which translates into enormous valuation premiums at SPCX and TSLA based on products that are more ideas than reality), but it’s hard to imagine SpaceX becoming a force in consumer electronics.” SpaceX’s stock price is on a downswing Wednesday, having dropped 7.3% as of around 3:30 p.m. EDT. The slump drove Musk’s net worth down by more than $50 billion, eliminating his status as a trillionaire.
Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX 7.80%) will join the Nasdaq-100 on July 7, after Nasdaq adjusted its rules to provide a "Fast Entry" option for eligible companies. Funds that track the Nasdaq-100, including the Invesco QQQ Trust, will need to buy SpaceX stock after market close on July 6.
JPMorgan estimates that this could drive $4.3 billion in passive inflows into SpaceX. Considering SpaceX has a tiny float -- only about 4% -- that kind of investment may push the price up. Should you buy before then to take advantage?

There are a few problems with this strategy. Any boost SpaceX gets will be temporary and unrelated to its long-term value. It could pull back just as quickly, in which case you don't come out ahead unless you take your profits immediately. This is trading, and it's much riskier and far less effective for building wealth than investing.
Also, most investors who follow SpaceX know when it's joining the Nasdaq-100. It's a good bet that plenty of people will buy the stock in anticipation of its index inclusion, which could lead to a much smaller bump than expected, or none at all.

It only makes sense to buy SpaceX if you think it's a good investment. While this space stock has potential, it's extremely risky and volatile. This is a company worth over $2 trillion as of June 30, despite losing $4.9 billion last year. Numbers like that matter much more than inclusion in the Nasdaq-100, and they're one of the reasons you may be better off waiting to invest in SpaceX.

Apple’s Hide My Email feature is a convenient privacy tool that uses disposable addresses to hide a user’s true email for the sake of online anonymity. Unfortunately, new research appears to show that a bug in the feature allows users’ real email addresses to be unmasked.
The bug was reported by 404 Media, which says that it has tested and verified that the vulnerability exists. Tyler Murphy, the researcher who found the bug, said that he warned Apple about the problem over a year ago and that it was unclear why the company had yet to remedy the problem. All of the attempts to exploit the bug have been successful, Murphy added.
“We don’t know the full scope of the issue, but in our limited tests with volunteers, 100% of Hide My Email addresses were exploitable,” Murphy told the outlet. Details of the vulnerability haven’t been publicly disclosed, for fear that it will be exploited.
Murphy is the co-founder of EasyOptOuts, which offers a paid data-removal service that takes your information off of data broker sites. He told 404 Media that “publicly accessible people-search sites make it easy to link an email address to other personal details, so people relying on Hide My Email for safety may be at risk.”
TechCrunch reached out to Apple for more information and will update this story if it responds.
When it comes to the tech world, privacy tools are hard to come by and, unfortunately, even when they do exist, they don’t always work. Apple has been accused of this sort of thing before.
Case in point: The company was sued in 2022 after it was reported that iPhone apps continued to send analytics data to Apple even when the iPhone Analytics privacy setting was turned on.
Similarly, in 2023, researchers found another one of Apple’s privacy features to be effectively “useless.” The research claimed that a tool that was supposed to anonymize mobile users’ Wi-Fi connections by providing randomized MAC addresses (an easily trackable identifier) was simply exposing the user’s real MAC address.
Apple has built a large part of its reputation and branding on user privacy, so hopefully it manages to address the apparent Hide My Email bug with some expedience. If it can learn to better stand behind its privacy promises, that wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world either.

Key Takeaways Meta shares rallied Wednesday following a report that the company is considering launching a business to sell excess compute capacity.The move could put Meta in competition with cloud services from Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon.

Meta's stock is soaring on signs it could be on the verge of launching a new business.
Meta Platforms (META) shares were up 10% recently, making it one of the best-performing stocks in the S&P 500 Wednesday, following a report that it aims to launch a cloud computing business. Meta has created an internal initiative called "Meta Compute" to manage the massive amounts of compute the company is acquiring, and is considering selling excess capacity, according to a Bloomberg report.1
The social media giant is also considering building a business selling access to AI models from several companies hosted through its existing AI infrastructure, akin to Amazon Web Services' offerings through the Bedrock platform, Bloomberg reported. Meta declined to comment on the report.
Such an operation could bring the Facebook and Instagram parent in competition with cloud services from Alphabet's (GOOGL) Google Cloud, Microsoft's (MSFT) Azure, and Amazon's (AMZN) AWS.
Why This Matters to Investors The move could also help Meta soothe concerns about its massive spending plans to build out its AI infrastructure.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at Meta's annual investor day back in May that "almost every week" Meta's partners ask them about a business to sell compute or model access. At the time, he said Meta had not yet pursued selling its compute because the company expected to have a use for all of it, but said it could be an option if Meta gets to "a point where we feel that we have overbuilt," per an AlphaSense transcript.
Shares of so-called "neocloud" companies CoreWeave (CRWV) and Nebius Group (NBIS) tumbled to lead decliners in the Nasdaq 100 following the news, dropping about 11% and 14%, respectively.
Even with Wednesday's rally, Meta shares are down about 6% year-to-date, after a slump amid concerns about its AI progress and the scale of its investments.
Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:META, XETRA:FB2A, SIX:FB) shares rose nearly 10% to $619.44 after a report that the company is building a cloud business to sell its excess AI computing capacity.
Bloomberg News, citing people familiar with the matter, said the move could reduce Meta's reliance on advertising and set it against the three firms that dominate cloud infrastructure. For a company that still draws almost all its revenue from ads, that would mark a significant widening of the base.
What Meta is weighing
One option under review is letting customers tap AI models hosted on Meta's own infrastructure. That would resemble Amazon Web Services' Bedrock platform, which sells access to a menu of models on a pay-as-you-go basis.
The idea is not new inside the company. Zuckerberg flagged it at Meta's annual shareholder meeting in May, saying it was "definitely on the table." He said other companies approach Meta almost every week asking to buy access to its models or spare capacity at a premium.
Selling that access would become a live option, he added, if Meta reached a point where it had overbuilt its data-centre capacity.
A hedge against overbuilding
That framing matters. It positions a cloud business less as a bold pivot than as a use for capacity Meta may otherwise leave idle. The company is pouring money into data centres, and a resale market would let it recoup some of that outlay rather than strand it.
The spending numbers behind the strategy are large. Big Tech firms are expected to spend more than $700 billion on AI infrastructure this year, up from around $400 billion in 2025. At that scale, even a modest overbuild leaves a lot of expensive silicon looking for work.
Taking on the incumbents
The move would push Meta into a contest with Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet, the three companies that have spent a decade building the cloud market. None will cede ground easily, and Meta would arrive as a challenger rather than an equal.
The prize is a revenue stream that does not rise and fall with the advertising cycle. That is the real draw. Meta's ad business is vast but exposed to economic swings and platform shifts, and a cloud arm would give it something steadier to lean on.
Meta shares jumped nearly 10% Wednesday following a report the company is planning to sell excess computing power, allowing it to recover some of the billions of dollars it has sunk into AI.
The Menlo Park, Calif.-based tech giant, which has rushed to secure pricey data centers and chips, is building a new cloud business to sell access to its AI models and compute, according to Bloomberg.
It’s welcome news for investors, who have grown anxious over whether Meta will be able to deliver returns on the hundreds of billions of dollars it has spent to build up a trove of coveted computing power, with a goal of developing “superintelligence.”
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has insisted that it’s crucial for Meta to build up as much computing capacity as possible. AP Photo/Alex Brandon Meta declined to comment.
The new cloud business would allow Meta to generate revenue on any leftover capacity, while setting it up to compete with industry leaders like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, CoreWeave and SpaceX.
Meta is debating whether the cloud business should be structured to sell access to its own AI models, or to raw computing power itself, according to the report, which noted that plans could change.
If it decides to sell access to AI models on its own infrastructure, it would be taking a similar approach to Amazon – running the data centers and chips that power the bots and then charging customers fees to access them.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX – which took over his artificial intelligence firm xAI in February – has adopted a similar approach, striking lucrative rental deals with Anthropic and Google for access to its huge Memphis data center.
Anthropic agreed to pay $1.25 billion a month, while Google signed off on a $920 million monthly fee.
Meta could alternatively choose to sell access to its computing capacity, similar to CoreWeave’s business model.

In April, shares in Meta slid after the company raised its spending forecast to $145 billion amid mounting fears that AI stocks are overvalued, similar to the “dot-com bubble” of the early 2000s.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has repeatedly insisted that it’s crucial for the company to build up as much computing capacity as possible and consider its use later, since supply is limited – but in May, he signaled an openness to selling excess power.
“It’s definitely on the table,” Zuckerberg said at the annual shareholder meeting. “Almost every week there are different companies that come to us from the outside asking us to both stand up an API service or asking if we have compute that they could buy from us at some premium to what we’ve bought it at.”

Last summer, Meta paid a whopping $15 billion to hire AI brainiac Alexandr Wang and take a 49% stake in his startup, Scale AI.
The company released its first AI model under Wang’s lead in April – though the model, called “Muse Spark,” did not live up to hopes for a state-of-the-art bot.
Wang has defended the model, saying it should serve as an “appetizer” while Meta is “cooking” up the main course.
WhatsApp recently began offering usernames, designed to help people connect while keeping their phone numbers private.
Now, the Meta-owned company said it will allow high-profile names to be claimed only by legitimate owners as it tries to prevent impersonation on the messaging platform, Bloomberg News reported Wednesday (July 1).
The username feature was introduced Monday (June 29), when Meta began letting customers reserve a unique handle for launch later in the year.
“Usernames are our latest step to make WhatsApp even more private. There’s no directory to browse and no suggestions—people will need to know your exact username to contact you for the first time,” the company wrote in its announcement.
According to the Bloomberg report, the move is facing scrutiny from India’s government, which is expected to call on WhatApp to explain the implications of the feature. Meta told Bloomberg it has built several layers of protection against scams into WhatsApp’s usernames offering.
“Other users need to know the exact username to message you, we will limit how many new people an account can contact, block repeated attempts to guess someone’s username key, and have systems to detect and remove activity showing common impersonation and abuse patterns,” the company said.
Bloomberg noted that India represents the largest market for WhatsApp with upwards of 600 million users, meaning any serious government pushback can hinder the global rollout of the username feature.
This is happening at a time when scammers are increasingly using social media channels to target their victims. Findings by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) released in April showed that nearly 30% of people who reported losing money in a scam last year say that the scam began on social media.
“Scammers may hack a user’s account, exploit what a user posts to figure out how to target them, or buy ads and use the same tools used by real businesses to target people by age, interests or shopping habits,” the commission said.
The FTC’s data are in line with PYMNTS Intelligence research which showed that digital communication channels are among the most common ways cybercriminals make their first contact with financial scams victims.
Meta introduced a series of artificial intelligence-powered anti-scam tools for WhatsApp, Facebook and Messenger earlier this year.
In the case of WhatApp, that meant a warning system that alerts users of potentially suspicious device-linking requests, aimed at preventing scams where fraudsters try to dupe WhatsApp users into connecting their account to another device.
