SHANGHAI, CHINA / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / The Chinese capital market will become more and more open to the outside world, as the China Securities Regulatory Commission will steadily expand high-level institutional opening-up to create a favorable investment environment for international investors, according to the watchdog’s vice chairman.

The CSRC will continue to promote the opening up of the Chinese capital market in terms of marketization, rule of law, and internationalization, Li Ming said at the 2025 Shanghai Stock Exchange Global Investors Conference on November 12.

The CSRC will improve the qualified foreign investor system, steadily and prudently expand the interconnection mechanisms between onshore and offshore stock markets, accelerate the construction of world-class stock exchanges, enrich cross-border investment products, and promote the inclusion of more futures and options varieties in the scope of the opening-up, Li noted.

Moreover, the CSRC will enhance the convenience for foreign institutions to participate in the Chinese capital market, strengthen the construction of regulatory and risk prevention capacity in the open environment, deepen cross-border regulatory and law enforcement work, and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of all investors, he added.

"China’s economy is at a critical stage in a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation," Qiu Yong, chairman of the SSE, said at the conference. "We sincerely invite global investors to pay active attention to and continuously invest in Chinese assets."

Foreign capital is actively investing in China’s advanced manufacturing, biomedicine, and other advantageous industries and paying more and more attention to investment opportunities in the country, according to Qian Jing, chief executive officer of Morgan Stanley Securities China.

China has become one of the most important markets in Temasek’s international investment portfolio, said Wu Yibing, chairman of Temasek China. As a long-term investor, Temasek has always kept an eye on the structural transformation process and policy orientation of the Chinese economy, he added.

"We will continue to build a resilient and forward-looking investment portfolio in China by investing long-term, patient, and value capital, and focus on opportunities that are in line with investment trends," Wu pointed out.

"Mergers and acquisitions and reorganizations have brought new investment opportunities to international investors," said Wang Bo, vice general manager of the SSE, adding that technology companies listed on the SSE’s Star Market will become a golden track for sharing the dividends of China’s technological innovation with international investors.

Foreign investors can proactively invest in traditional Chinese mainland-listed firms focused on transformation to seize the opportunities brought by their future revaluation, Wang noted.

Overseas investors can also invest in industry leaders at the early stage of industrial integration, obtaining long-term stable investment returns through the continuous enhancement of their core competitiveness, he added.

Chinese stocks are cheap and attractive enough, said Wong Kok Hoi, founder, chairman, and chief strategy officer of APS Asset Management, adding that he remains bullish on the Chinese capital market.

China’s economic development and technological progress will be driven by manufacturing, innovation, and talent, he predicted.

Whistleblower urges reporters and policymakers to examine public RICO filings citing HR 1049’s findings and a Treasury-SEC memo questioning the 2013 PREPA bond issuance.

MURRIETA, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / November 14, 2025 / Federal whistleblower Richard R. Lawless has submitted new filings highlighting federal documents that do not appear to have been referenced during the 2016 PROMESA hearings, despite containing substantial risk information relevant to Puerto Rico’s financial collapse. These materials, incorporated into a public set of civil RICO allegations now available on the PROMESA Title III docket, raise significant questions for policymakers, investors, and financial analysts.

Central to the filings are two key documents:

1. HR 1049 (2015 House Natural Resources Committee Report)
The report – an official congressional document – described Puerto Rico’s electric utility finances citing refinancing cycles, distressed revenue structures, and internal financial warnings that predated PROMESA.

2. A 22-Page Treasury-SEC Email from 2013
Authored within the Treasury Department and shared with the SEC, the communication raised internal concerns that the 2013 PREPA bond issuance may not have fully reflected known risk factors. These included uncollectible receivables, revenue instability, and questions regarding the clarity of the offering materials. The 2013 bond issue later defaulted within approximately two years.

A Key Question Raised in the Filings

"If federal agencies possessed these documents prior to the PROMESA hearings, why were they not presented-and would the PROMESA vote have proceeded as it did if they had been?"

Lawless emphasized that the filings do not assert conclusions but call for independent examination by oversight bodies.
"Given the scale of the documents now in the public domain, I strongly encourage reporters, policymakers, and analysts to review the docketed RICO materials themselves," Lawless said. "Every referenced document is publicly accessible."

Potential Impact Identified by Analysts

Analysts reviewing the filings note that:

HR 1049’s language does not appear in public PROMESA hearing transcripts;

The Treasury-SEC memo does not appear in the legislative record;

Both documents contain information that rating agencies, insurers, and institutional investors may have considered material;

Access to these documents could have influenced congressional debate and legislative outcomes.

Invitation for Review

The full RICO filings – including exhibits, timelines, and referenced federal documents – are available on the public docket. Lawless stated that transparency and independent verification are essential given the legislative importance of PROMESA and the scale of the financial losses involved.

No federal agency referenced in the filings has issued public comment on the historical handling of these documents.

Company Reports Revenues of $45.3 million, a 4.0% Year-Over-Year Increase, Outpacing Election-Year Comparison

Broadcast Revenues Increase to $36.6 Million, a 10.1% Increase Year-Over-Year

Newsmax Remains the Fourth Highest-Rated Cable News Channel With Over 28 Million Quarterly Viewers

BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / Newsmax Inc. (NYSE:NMAX) ("Newsmax" or the "Company") today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Management Commentary

"We are pleased to announce another strong quarter that shows the power and consistency of our business, even in a non-election year when news audiences and advertising demand across the industry typically soften," said Christopher Ruddy, Chief Executive Officer of Newsmax. "Our performance this quarter reflects the strength of our diversified revenue model, the growing reach of our cable and FAST channels and the continued engagement of audiences across all of our platforms."

Ruddy continued, "Since going public, we have focused on building a company positioned for sustainable, long-term growth. Our strong balance sheet and access to the public markets give us the flexibility to invest strategically, expand our distribution and continue delivering compelling content that resonates with viewers. We remain focused on sustainable, long-term growth and on delivering consistent value for our shareholders."

Third Quarter 2025 Business and Operational Highlights

• Newsmax has significantly expanded its distribution reach through multiple strategic initiatives including:

  • Secured distribution agreement with a leading hospitality provider, making Newsmax available in 900+ hotels and 300,000 hotel rooms nationwide.

  • Partnered with Curb to bring Newsmax programming to the Taxi TV platform, reaching over 15,000 screens across 65 U.S. markets generating 2.3 billion annual impressions.

  • Achieved major international expansion through partnership with Trump Media & Technology Group, making Newsmax available globally on Truth+ streaming platform across multiple devices and connected TV apps.

  • Extended multi-year carriage partnership with Fubo, launching Newsmax en Español on Fubo’s Latino plan and Latino Plus add-on package.

  • Expanded international news coverage with Carl Higbie broadcasting live from Israel, providing comprehensive coverage and exclusive interviews including with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

• Implemented strategic cryptocurrency purchase plan of up to $5 million to acquire Bitcoin and Trump Coin over the next 12 months, positioning Newsmax to be the first NYSE company to purchase Trump Coin.

• Partnered with Veritone to modernize newsroom operations and unlock revenue potential from Newsmax’s extensive 20-year content archive through AI-powered Digital Media Hub technology.

• Appointed David Gandler, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of FuboTV, to the Board of Directors, bringing extensive streaming and media industry expertise.

Third Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights

• Newsmax reported total quarterly revenues of $45.3 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2025, representing a 4.0% year-over-year increase.

  • Total Broadcasting revenues grew 10.1% year-over-year to $36.6 million for the third quarter of 2025, underscoring continued growth even in a non-election year. This was driven by affiliate fee revenue growth, higher ratings and pricing for broadcasting ad revenue and an increase in Newsmax+ subscribers.

  • Advertising Revenues decreased slightly by 1.6% year-over-year to $27.6 million due to a non-election year comparison period.

  • Affiliate Revenues increased 22.3% year-over-year to $8.1 million driven by new contractual relationships as well as rate increases that went into effect in 2025.

  • Subscription Revenues of $6.9 million were flat year-over-year, driven by an increase in Newsmax+ subscribers, offset by reductions in publication subscriptions due to election cycle cyclicality.

  • Product Sales Revenues increased 1.8% year-over-year to $1.5 million.

• Newsmax reported a quarterly Net Loss of $(4.1) million as compared to a Net Loss of $(9.8) million reported in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by higher production and programming investments, public company and stock-based compensation costs, offset by reduced legal expenses and higher broadcast revenues.

• Quarterly Adjusted EBITDA was $(1.8) million, a decrease of $4.4 million from the amount reported in the same quarter last year, primarily due to higher production and programming expenses and increased personnel and public company costs associated with the Company’s continued expansion. (See reconciliation of net loss to adjusted EBITDA below).

• The Company ended the quarter with $130.4 million in Cash and short-term investments. Cash and Cash Equivalents were $14.2 million and short-term investments were $116.2 million.

Newsmax is reiterating its previously issued full-year 2025 revenue guidance of $180 million to $190 million.

"Our third quarter results highlight the resilience and momentum of our business," commented Darryle Burnham, Chief Financial Officer. "By expanding our global distribution footprint and modernizing our content monetization strategy, we are laying the foundation for sustainable, long-term growth. We are encouraged by the strong performance we are seeing early in the fourth quarter and remain confident in our previously disclosed full-year revenue guidance. Supported by a solid balance sheet, we continue to invest in strategic opportunities that enhance our reach, strengthen our financial profile and drive shareholder value."

USE AND DEFINITION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release contains a financial measure that has not been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). This financial measure is Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP financial measures are used to supplement the financial information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the relevant U.S. GAAP measures and should be read in conjunction with information presented on a U.S. GAAP basis. Because not all companies use identical calculations, our presentation of Non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA[1] is defined as revenues less cost of revenues and general and administrative expenses and does not include depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, impairment charges, unrealized gains (losses) on marketable securities, other corporate matters (consisting primarily of certain litigation expenses, and related fees, for specific legal proceedings that the Company has determined are infrequent and unusual in terms of their magnitude), other, net, and income tax expense.

[1] The Company compensates for limitations of the adjusted EBITDA measure by prominently disclosing GAAP net income (loss), which the Company believes is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and providing investors with a reconciliation from GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA on page 13.

POST FALLS, ID / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / Trustpoint Xposure announced today that it has been recognized as the only AEO-certified media strategy agency specializing in AI-optimized visibility for modern PR, communications, and digital discovery in the USA. As answer engines increasingly replace traditional search pathways, Trustpoint Xposure’s certification marks a defining moment in how brands compete for inclusion in AI-generated answers.

Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is the emerging standard for ensuring brand information is properly read, parsed, and cited by large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Perplexity. Unlike SEO, which focuses on page rankings, AEO focuses on direct answer inclusion, making it essential for any brand seeking visibility in AI-driven environments.

A Certification That Redefines Visibility

Trustpoint Xposure’s AEO certification validates its ability to engineer communication assets-press releases, executive bios, media kits, brand narratives, and strategic messaging-that can be understood with high precision by answer engines. Through structured editorial frameworks and machine-readable narrative construction, the agency ensures brands appear more consistently inside:

• AI-generated summaries

• Category comparisons

• Product recommendations

• Industry answer sets

• Competitive breakdowns

• Automated research workflows

"Brands used to fight for page one. Now they’re fighting to be the answer itself," said David Wilder, Founder & CEO of Trustpoint Xposure. "We pursued AEO certification so our clients can win inside the new discovery layer-AI systems that decide what gets cited, summarized, and surfaced."

Why AEO Matters Right Now

With Google AI Overviews accelerating, enterprise search platforms integrating LLMs, and consumers relying on conversational tools for daily decisions, traditional SEO no longer guarantees visibility.

AEO provides:

• Accurate representation inside AI platforms

• Reduced misinformation or misclassification

• Increased citation frequency by LLMs

• Higher authority scores across AI ecosystems

• Consistent alignment across multiple platforms

Brands not optimized for answer engines risk disappearing from AI-driven results-even with strong SEO.

How Trustpoint Xposure Delivers AI-Optimized Media Strategy

Trustpoint Xposure’s AEO-aligned methodology includes:

• AI-structured PR writing and formatting

• Machine-readable fact-pattern creation

• Entity reconciliation for knowledge graphs

• Semantic clarity for answer engines

• Consistent terminology and source architecture

• Multi-platform testing across leading LLMs

This process ensures brand narratives remain journalistically strong while being fully optimized for machine interpretation.

A Foundation for the Future of Discovery

Wilder emphasized that the certification reflects a fundamental industry shift:
"We’re entering a decade where audiences will talk to AI systems more than they browse webpages. Brands that prepare now will set the competitive baseline for years to come."

Clients already working with Trustpoint Xposure have reported improvements in:

• AI-generated brand accuracy

• Inclusion in answer-level output

• Visibility within LLM-driven comparisons

• Thought leadership citation

• Narrative consistency across AI platforms

Brands seeking AI-optimized visibility or wanting to understand how AEO impacts the future of PR and search can schedule a consultation atwww.trustpointxposure.com.

About Trustpoint Xposure

Trustpoint Xposure is an award-winning PR and media strategy agency specializing in AEO-driven visibility, narrative engineering, and modern digital discovery. As the only AEO-certified media strategy agency, Trustpoint helps organizations achieve consistent, authoritative representation inside answer engines, AI assistants, and next-generation search ecosystems.

New to The Street will be covering across all media.

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / November 13, 2025 / HPB, a German innovator in solid-state battery technology, has partnered with leading process engineering company Coperion to advance slurry production. This strategic collaboration integrates Coperion’s expertise in continuous processing with HPB’s battery technology with the potential to support future industrial-scale production readiness. HPB’s solid-state batteries offer significant improvements in safety, longevity, and environmental impact. With intellectual property protected in 96 countries, the technology provides up to 50% better environmental balance compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries.

Earlier this year, HPB and Coperion conducted joint tests at Coperion’s test facility in Stuttgart, Germany. Using their continuous extrusion systems, the teams examined whether HPB’s slurry parameters could be effectively achieved. The first tests demonstrated that the target viscosity could be met, opening the door to further investigation.

"Our primary goal was to validate that our proprietary slurry can be produced reliably and consistently at industrial scale. The successful trials using Coperion’s state-of-the-art equipment have confirmed that scaling up our technology is both feasible and efficient," explained Markus Stichnote, Head of Development at HPB.

Coperion brings extensive expertise in scaling innovative material processes from laboratory to industrial production. "We are delighted to support HPB in translating their innovative battery tech into scalable production. By applying our advanced continuous mixing solutions, we demonstrated that even novel battery formulations can be produced safely, efficiently, and at scale." said Massimo Bernert, Teamleader Sales Europe from Coperion.

After the team successfully achieved target viscosity using the extruder in the first tests, they will consider scaling up trials in the next rounds, keeping in mind the possibility of industrial-scale production in the future. To follow progress and explore partnership opportunities, stakeholders from the battery manufacturing, renewable energy, and clean technology sectors are invited to connect directly with HPB and Coperion.

CEO believes Dolphin is undervalued, purchases approximately 2% of outstanding shares since April 2025

MIAMI, FL / ACCESS Newswire / November 12, 2025 / Dolphin (NASDAQ:DLPN), a leading entertainment marketing and content production company, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2025.

Bill O’Dowd, CEO of Dolphin Entertainment, stated:

"Dolphin delivered another record-setting quarter in Q3, with revenue rising 16.7% year over year to $14.8 million and operating income turning positive with $300,000 despite almost $600,000 of non-cash amortization expenses related to our historical acquisitions. Furthermore, the first nine months of 2025 have now surpassed the first nine months of 2024 in revenue despite "The Blue Angels" generating over $3.4 million in revenues in Q1 2024. In fact, Q3 2025 is the second-highest revenue quarter in Dolphin’s history, only slightly behind "The Blue Angels" fueled $15.2 million in Q1 2024.

Equally important, the quarter’s results were entirely organic, as our last acquisition was Elle Communications on July 1, 2024. Thus, the same agencies delivered this outstanding year‑over‑year revenue and operating income growth. This healthy organic growth is the primary driver behind our continued margin expansion, with adjusted operating income exceeding $1.0 million, or 6.9% of revenue, up from 4.5% in Q2. This performance reflects both the consistency and strength of our core subsidiaries and the growing scalability of our cross-selling operating model.

Beyond the financials, we are honored by the recognition our teams received in being named among Crain’s Best Places to Work in NYC, inclusion on The PR Net 100, and our selection to PRNEWS’ Agency Elite 120 list. All of this on top of our PR group’s recognition earlier in the year as the #1 PR Agency in the country by the Observer. These recognitions validate the strength of our culture, creativity, and leadership in entertainment marketing.

And finally, as a long‑term believer in Dolphin’s potential, I’ve personally purchased approximately 2% of our outstanding shares since April 2025. I continue to believe our share price undervalues the company’s proven performance, strategic positioning, and significant growth opportunities ahead. With record results and a unified, award‑winning team, Dolphin moves ahead in Q4 and 2026 with tremendous momentum."

Q3 2025 and Recent Highlights

Total revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, was $14.8 million, an increase of 16.7% from $12.7 million in the same period last year.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In order to provide greater transparency regarding our operating performance, the financial results in this press release refer to a non-GAAP financial measure that involves adjustments to GAAP results. Non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain income and/or expense items that management deems are not directly attributable to the Company’s core operating results and/or certain items that are inconsistent in amounts and frequency, making it difficult to perform a meaningful evaluation of our current or past operating performance.

Adjusted operating income or loss is defined by Dolphin as (loss) income from operations before: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) write-off of assets, (iii) impairment of goodwill or intangible assets, (iv) acquisition costs, (v) employee stock compensation, (vi) change in fair value of contingent consideration, (vii) bad debt expense and (viii) and impairment of capitalized production costs.

Management believes that the presentation of operating results using this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful supplemental information for investors by providing them with the non-GAAP financial measure used by management for financial and operational decision making, planning and forecasting and in managing the business. This non-GAAP financial measure does not replace the presentation of financial information in accordance with U.S. GAAP financial results, should not be considered a measure of liquidity and is unlikely to be comparable to non-GAAP financial measures provided by other companies.
