Month: September 2026

NEW YORK, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Flag Ship Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: FSHP, FSHPU and FSHPR) (the “Company,” “Flag Ship” or “Parent”), a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, announced that it has signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Bluechip & Co. Holdings, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Bluechip” or the “Company”), Bluechip Holdings Corp., a newly formed Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of Flag Ship (“Purchaser”), and Bluechip Merger Sub Inc., a newly formed Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (“Merger Sub”).

Upon completion of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Flag Ship will merge with and into Purchaser, with Purchaser surviving as the publicly traded parent company (the “SPAC Merger”). Immediately thereafter, Merger Sub will merge with and into Bluechip, with Bluechip surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of Purchaser (the “Acquisition Merger” and, together with the SPAC Merger, the “Mergers”).

Bluechip is a Cayman Islands holding company that, through its subsidiaries, provides insurance-related customer-acquisition, financial-education, referral, U.S. capital-markets advisory, AI-driven online-advertising and data-center services.

Mr. Matthew Chen, Chief Executive Officer of Flag Ship, remarked, “We are pleased to announce our proposed business combination with Bluechip. Our team evaluated a broad range of potential opportunities and believes that this transaction offers Flag Ship shareholders the opportunity to participate in Bluechip’s businesses. We are impressed by Bluechip’s management team and look forward to working with them as the combined company pursues its next stage of development as a public company.”

Mr. Ming Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of Bluechip, stated, “The proposed business combination with Flag Ship represents an important next step in Bluechip’s development. We believe that becoming a publicly traded company will support our long-term strategy and provide a platform for us to further develop our service offerings. We look forward to working with Flag Ship and continuing to serve our clients and business partners as we pursue our growth objectives.”

Transaction Details

Upon Closing, the holders of Bluechip’s issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares, other than excluded shares specified in the Merger Agreement, will have their Bluechip shares cancelled in exchange for the right to receive their respective pro rata portions of an aggregate of 40,000,000 Purchaser ordinary shares, as set forth in the shareholder allocation schedule to the Merger Agreement. The transaction reflects a Company Net Value of $400,000,000.

At the SPAC Merger Effective Time, each Flag Ship ordinary share issued and outstanding immediately before such time will automatically convert into one Purchaser ordinary share. Each Flag Ship unit will automatically separate into one Flag Ship ordinary share and one Flag Ship right; each such ordinary share will convert into one Purchaser ordinary share and each such right will be exchanged for a Purchaser right in accordance with the terms of the applicable rights agreement. At Closing, each Purchaser right will be cancelled in exchange for one-tenth (1/10th) of one Purchaser ordinary share, with no fractional shares issued.

The Merger Agreement provides that Bluechip will fund, as non-interest-bearing expense loans, certain documented transaction expenses incurred by or on behalf of Flag Ship and the other Purchaser Parties from and after the LOI Date, including Trust Account extension payments, legal, accounting, audit, financial-advisory, filing, listing, transfer-agent, SEC, Nasdaq and other transaction-related costs. The expense loans will not be due or payable before June 20, 2027 and, if the Acquisition Merger is consummated, will be cancelled and eliminated as intercompany obligations as provided in the Merger Agreement.

Immediately after the SPAC Merger Effective Time, Purchaser’s board of directors is expected to consist of five directors, including one director designated by Flag Ship, one director designated by Bluechip (Ming Zhang), and three directors expected to satisfy Nasdaq independence requirements. The officers of Bluechip are expected to become the officers of Purchaser, in each case subject to the Merger Agreement and applicable law.

The closing conditions of the Mergers include, among others, the approval of the Mergers and related matters by Flag Ship shareholders; Bluechip shareholder approval of the Acquisition Merger; the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form F-4 to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”); the consummation of the SPAC Merger; approval for listing of Purchaser and the additional Purchaser ordinary shares to be issued as merger consideration on The Nasdaq Capital Market; execution and delivery of the additional agreements contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and the receipt of applicable permits and governmental approvals.

The description of the transaction contained in this press release is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which Flag Ship intends to file with the SEC as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K.

TORONTO, Ontario, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cadillac Mines Corporation (TSX: CADY) (“Cadillac Mines” or the “Company”) today announced the successful completion of the previously-announced acquisition of all of the assets that comprise Pan American Silver Corp.’s (“Pan American”) Larder Property (the “Acquisition”).

Pursuant to the binding asset purchase agreement, dated May 7, 2026, Cadillac Mines has issued 15,000,000 common shares of the Company (the “Consideration Shares”) to Pan American in exchange for all of the assets comprising the Larder Property. When combining the Consideration Shares with those Pan American purchased as part of the Company’s recently completed initial public offering, Pan American now owns approximately 6% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

The Larder Property comprises over 6,400 hectares along the Larder Lake Cadillac Break contiguous to Cadillac Mines’ Kerr-Addison property to the west. The property includes three mineral deposits, Bear, Cheminis and Fernland, with historical resources of 388,000 ounces of indicated gold mineral resources (5.1 million tonnes at 2.39 grams per tonne gold) and 933,000 ounces of inferred gold mineral resources (6.9 million tonnes at 4.21 grams per tonne gold). With the completion of this Acquisition, Cadillac Mines’ total land position now exceeds 27,000 hectares in the Abitibi.

Rick Howes, Chief Executive Officer of Cadillac Mines, stated, “We are excited to close this transaction and welcome Pan American as a meaningful, strategic shareholder. Adding Larder to our already robust portfolio of assets along the Cadillac Larder break increases our gold resource base, grows our land package and further enhances our regional exploration potential. We plan to deploy a number of our 11 currently active drill rigs to Larder in the near term.”

Further details regarding the Acquisition, are included in the Company’s press release dated May 8, 2026, a copy of which can be found on the Company’s website at www.cadillacmines.com.

Technical Information

Scientific and technical information of Cadillac Mines contained in this press release (other than the Historic Resource below) is based upon information in the report titled “Mineral Resource Estimate NI 43-101 Technical Report Kerr-Addison Project, Ontario, Canada” with an effective date of February 27, 2026, and filed under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca). The remaining technical information (other than the Historic Resource) has been reviewed and approved by Kerry Sparkes, P.Geo, Senior Vice President Exploration, who is a Qualified Person as the term is defined in Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Inferred resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the inferred resources would be realized.

Historic Resource

Information regarding the historical resource at the Larder Property was obtained from the report titled: Updated Mineral Resource Estimates, Larder Lake Gold Project, Larder Lake, Ontario, Canada, prepared for Gatling Exploration Inc., with an effective date of September 2, 2021. All resource estimates for the Larder Property are now considered historical in nature and are based on prior data and reports prepared by previous property owners. A qualified person has not done sufficient work yet to classify the historical estimates as current resources in accordance with current CIM categories and the Company is not treating the historical estimates as current resources. These historical estimates should not be relied upon. There is no guarantee that any of the historical estimates will be confirmed by future work. Significant data compilation, redrilling, resampling and data verification may be required by a qualified person before the historical estimates can be classified as a current resource. There can be no assurance that any of the historical mineral resources, in whole or in part, will ever become economically viable. In addition, mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. Even if classified as a current resource, there is no certainty as to whether further exploration will result in any inferred mineral resources being upgraded to an indicated or measured resource category.

About Cadillac Mines

Cadillac Mines Corporation is a Canadian mineral exploration company advancing a growing portfolio of gold and critical mineral projects along the prolific Cadillac-Larder Lake Break in Ontario and Québec. Anchored by the historic Kerr-Addison Mine, the Company is focused on expanding its gold resource base, advancing the Geminid nickel deposit and unlocking the broader potential of its district-scale Abitibi land position. Through disciplined exploration, technical excellence and responsible development, Cadillac Mines is working to create lasting value for shareholders, communities and other stakeholders.

Local Entrepreneur to Lead Market Expansion
 with Co-Branded Location and Multi-Unit Growth Plan

CENTERVILLE, UTAH, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TruGolf Links Franchising, LLC (“TruGolf Links”), owned by TruGolf Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRUG), the leading provider of golf simulator software and hardware, announced today the signing of a new regional developer for the greater Las Vegas area. Greg Louie, along with his partners, Paul Wong and Chris Lang are the regional developers for Dill Dinkers Pickleball in Las Vegas, with their first location open in Henderson. They have signed a lease for a second Dill Dinkers location in NW Las Vegas on Craig Road where they will also have a TruGolf Links Executive franchise in the same facility. This marks the first co-branded location for TruGolf Links and Dill Dinkers Pickleball. The facility will have nine pickleball courts and four premier TruGolf Links simulator bays.

“This is an amazing development for TruGolf Links coming into the Las Vegas market with an established developer already operating a sports recreation concept,” said Dr. Ben Litalien, Chief Development Officer of TruGolf Links. “The combination of indoor golf and pickleball will certainly be a compelling offer, and we couldn’t have a better partner.” Dill Dinkers’ founder and CEO, Will Richards agrees. “We are really excited to see our partners in Las Vegas bringing TruGolf Links into the mix. This could be a model for the rest of our network to consider as we continue to expand quickly across the country.”

Greg, Paul and Chris bring decades of executive experience to their franchise businesses. All are longtime entrepreneurs with a passion for innovation and community-focused ventures. The team was drawn to TruGolf Links by its cutting-edge technology, immersive entertainment experience, and forward-thinking business model. “Our team loves pickleball and golf, so it only made sense to combine them into one unparalleled experience”, said Greg. “People are looking for engagement and community, and now we’ll be able to provide both under one roof. The technology, accuracy, graphics, and overall experience made TruGolf Links the only choice for us.”

As golf participation continues to grow nationwide, traditional courses in the Las Vegas area are often fully booked, creating demand for accessible, flexible alternatives. TruGolf Links fills that gap by offering a fun, safe, and welcoming indoor environment where guests can play regardless of weather, gather socially, and enjoy high-quality food and beverages. In addition to golf, TruGolf Links features a variety of interactive sports and games including soccer, baseball, hockey, cornhole, and fan-favorite experiences like zombie dodgeball.

The TruGolf Links “Executive” model features all the technology, games and courses just without the sports bar/restaurant, and it can be accessible 24/7/365. “It’s the perfect fit co-branded with pickleball as four simulators can fit into the size of one pickleball court,” said Dr. Litalien, “increasing total overall revenues and providing more opportunities for members.”

BEIJING, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Baosheng Media Group Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: BAOS) (“Baosheng” or the “Company”) today announced that on September 10, 2026, it received a deficiency letter (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department (the “Staff”) of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”). The Notice informed the Company that, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”) over the 30 consecutive business day period between July 27, 2026 and September 9, 2026, the Company is not in compliance with the requirement to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per Ordinary Share for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, as set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”).

The Notice has no immediate effect on the continued listing status of the Ordinary Shares on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company has been provided a compliance period of 180 calendar days from the date of the Notice, or until March 9, 2027, to regain compliance pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A). If at any time before March 9, 2027, the closing bid price of the Ordinary Shares reaches or exceeds $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, subject to the Staff’s discretion to require a longer period, the Staff will provide written notification that the Company has achieved compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and the matter will be closed. If the Company chooses to implement a reverse stock split, it must complete the split no later than ten business days prior to March 9, 2027, in order to regain compliance.

If the Company does not regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement during the initial 180-calendar-day period, the Company may be eligible for an additional compliance period. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the Minimum Bid Price Requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, Nasdaq will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice that the Company’s securities will be subject to delisting.

The Company intends to actively monitor the closing bid price of the Ordinary Shares and will evaluate available options to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance during the initial 180-day compliance period, secure a second compliance period or maintain compliance with the other Nasdaq Listing Rules.
