CHANGES TO FNAC DARTY’S GOVERNANCE FOLLOWING THE TAKEOVER BID INITIATED BY EP GROUP

Following the publication of the results of the Tender Offer initiated by EP FR HOLDCo, a company controlled by EP Group, for the outstanding shares and OCEANEs of Fnac Darty (the “Offer”), showing a stake of 69.3% of the share capital and theoretical voting rights of the Company and resulting in the change of control of the Company, the Board of Directors of Fnac Darty met today in order to adapt the Group’s governance to its new shareholder structure.

Changes in the composition of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors took note of the resignation of Jacques Veyrat, Caroline Grégoire Sainte Marie, Laure Hauseux, Jean-Marc Janaillac, Stefano Meloni, Stefanie Meyer, Javier Santiso, Brigitte Taittinger-Jouyet and Daniela Weber-Rey from their positions as directors, as well as the resignation of Franck Maurin from his position as director representing employees.
The Council thanked them for their commitment and contribution to the work of the Council and the development of the Group.

The Board co-opted Stéphanie Berlioz, Sandrine Doucen, Branislav Miškovič, Martin Plavec and Thomas Métivier as directors. These co-optations will be submitted for ratification at the next Ordinary General Meeting.

As a result of these changes, the Board is composed of nine members, including four independent directors within the meaning of the AFEP-MEDEF Code and one director representing employees. Its composition complies with the applicable legal provisions and the recommendations of the AFEP-MEDEF Code, particularly in terms of independence and gender diversity (50% of independent directors excluding directors representing employees and 5 men, 3 women).

Combination of the functions of President and Chief Executive Officer

The Board decided to combine the functions of Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer and appointed Enrique Martinez as Chairman of the Board of Directors. He will continue as Chief Executive Officer and thus become Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fnac Darty.

The Board considered that this mode of governance was adapted to the Company’s new shareholder structure and ensured the continuity and effectiveness of its governance in the implementation of the Group’s strategy.

This organization is accompanied by measures to ensure a balance of power within the Board, in particular the presence of four independent directors and the retention of Sandra Lagumina as Vice-Chair.

The Board also decided to keep unchanged the amount and structure of Enrique Martinez’s remuneration for 2026, in accordance with the remuneration policy approved by the Annual General Meeting on 27 May 2026.

New composition of the Board of Directors

Director Function
Enrique Martinez Chairman and CEO
Sandra Lagumina Vice-Chair, independent Director
Stéphanie Berlioz Independent Director
Sandrine Doucen Independent Director
Olivier Duha Independent Director
Thomas Métivier Director representing EP Group
Branislav Miškovič Director representing EP Group
Martin Plavec Director representing EP Group
Julien Ducreux Director representing employees

In view of the changes in its composition, the Board also reviewed the organization of its specialized committees and decided to create a Committee on Compensation, Nominations, Governance and Social and Environmental Responsibility (“RNG-CSR Committee”) to replace the Appointments and Remuneration Committee and the Social, Environmental and Social Responsibility Committee. The Board also retains an Audit Committee and a Strategy Committee.

The committees are now composed as follows:

  • Audit Committee: Sandra Lagumina (Chairwoman, independent director), Stéphanie Berlioz (independent director) and Martin Plavec.
  • RNG-CSR Committee: Olivier Duha (Chairman, independent director), Sandrine Doucen (independent director), Branislav Miškovič and Julien Ducreux (director representing employees).
  • Strategy Committee: Olivier Duha (Chairman, independent director), Enrique Martinez (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer), Branislav Miškovič and Martin Plavec.

Enrique Martinez, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fnac Darty, said: « Following the success of EP Group’s tender offer, a new governance structure will be put in place. I would like to take this opportunity to warmly thank the outgoing directors for their commitment and contribution to the work of the Board, and in particular to Jacques Veyrat who served as its Chairman. »

EP Group has confirmed its intention to maintain the listing of Fnac Darty shares on the regulated market of Euronext Paris and to pursue a financial communication policy in line with the requirements applicable to listed companies.

The Board of Directors and the management team will continue to implement the Group’s strategy based on its omnichannel model, the acceleration of its services activities, the pursuit of its digital transformation and the strengthening of its sustainability commitments.

GF executives joined by U.S. and Japanese government officials, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, customers, partners and community leaders to mark the start of construction and celebrate a first-of-its-kind U.S.-Japan investment in American semiconductor manufacturing

MALTA, N.Y., Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) (GF) today joined U.S. and Japanese government officials, state and local leaders, customers, partners, employees and community members to break ground on the first new semiconductor manufacturing facility planned for its Malta, New York, site under a landmark U.S.-Japan initiative. The groundbreaking marks the start of construction on a new 300mm fab and a first-of-its-kind model that brings together Japanese investment with GF’s technology and manufacturing expertise to expand trusted U.S. semiconductor capacity and support growing demand across automotive, industrial and connected infrastructure markets.

The groundbreaking follows GF’s Oct. 14 announcement that it was selected as the technology provider and operator for two new fabs at its Malta site under a U.S.-Japan initiative providing up to $21 billion in funding. Japan will provide the investment, while GF will contribute its differentiated technologies, manufacturing expertise and proven operational capabilities. An initial investment of approximately $10 billion, supported with $570 million in incentives from New York State is accelerating construction of the first fab, which is expected to come online in 2029. An additional investment of approximately $10 billion will support a second fab as the project advances.

When fully operational, the first fab is expected to add approximately 900,000 300mm wafers of annual U.S. manufacturing capacity, with a second fab adding approximately the same amount. The new capacity will expand GF’s ability to support customers worldwide with foundational semiconductors for automotive, industrial and connected infrastructure applications.

“Today, we’re putting shovels in the ground and turning an ambitious partnership into reality,” said Tim Breen, CEO of GlobalFoundries. “This first-of-its-kind initiative brings together the strengths of the United States, Japan and GF to expand trusted semiconductor manufacturing at a scale that matters. We’re proud to build on our long history in New York and deliver the capacity, technology and supply chain resilience our customers and both nations need for the future.”

“We’ve spent years building something special here in Malta, and this investment is a recognition of what our team has accomplished,” said Grant McEwan, Vice President and General Manager, Malta, New York Fab, GlobalFoundries. “We have a world-class workforce, proven manufacturing capabilities and the infrastructure to grow, all at one of the nation’s most advanced semiconductor manufacturing sites. This next chapter will create opportunities for thousands of people, strengthen our community and help ensure the Capital Region remains at the center of U.S. semiconductor manufacturing for decades to come.”

The two-fab initiative is expected to create about 27,000 construction and ecosystem jobs and more than 1,000 high-skilled manufacturing jobs in New York’s Capital Region. GF is working with schools, colleges, universities and workforce development organizations to build the next generation of semiconductor talent needed to support the region’s continued growth.

“New York is building the future of American semiconductor manufacturing, and today’s groundbreaking marks another major step forward for our state and the Capital Region,” said Governor Kathy Hochul. “With up to a $21 billion investment, more than 1,000 new manufacturing jobs and thousands of construction jobs, GlobalFoundries is demonstrating what is possible when we invest in our workforce and growing technology industries. This expansion will strengthen our domestic supply chains, create new opportunities for New Yorkers and help ensure that the chips powering our economy are made right here in New York.” 

“GlobalFoundries breaking ground on the first of up to two new cutting-edge chip fabs makes even clearer that Upstate New York is the chip hub of the country, creating new jobs and unleashing immense economic energy for Upstate New York and the nation,” said U.S. Senate Democratic Leader Charles E. Schumer. “I fought to pass my CHIPS & Science Law to make this Upstate economic resurgence possible. Today, we are seeing that vision become reality as decades of manufacturing loss are replaced by a future where technologies the world needs will be proudly stamped ‘Made in Upstate New York.’”

“Through hard work and critical investments, we have made New York’s Capital Region a global leader in semiconductor manufacturing,” said Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. “This new initiative will create thousands of good-paying construction and manufacturing jobs, strengthening the Upstate economy for years to come. Today’s announcement will ensure New York stays at the center of America’s domestic chip manufacturing boom and that we have trusted and assured supply chains built right here at home.”

“I’ve long believed in our Capital Region’s potential to be a pioneer in chips development and manufacturing powerhouse, and have worked hard to drive investments that unlock that full potential,” Congressman Paul Tonko (NY-20) said. “Today’s groundbreaking opens an extraordinary new chapter and further secures our region as the leader in this industry. I applaud this partnership that will create thousands of good-paying, union jobs, expand trusted domestic manufacturing capacity, and strengthen the supply chains our economy and national security depend on.”

A livestream of the event will be available for replay following the event here.

NORTH WALES, PA, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Toppoint Holdings Inc. (“Toppoint” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: TOPP), a truckload services and solutions provider focused on the recycling export supply chain, today announced that the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of its shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a ratio of 1-for-5, pursuant to the reverse stock split authority approved by stockholders at the Company’s annual meeting on September 8, 2026.

On November 10, 2026, the NYSE American LLC (the “NYSE American”) halted trading in the Common Stock due to an abnormally low trading price. The Company has been in active communication with NYSE American regarding the resumption of trading and, following that dialogue, is proceeding with the Reverse Stock Split to restore the per-share price of its Common Stock to a level appropriate for continued listing on the NYSE American.

The Reverse Stock Split is expected to become effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on November 23, 2026, pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of Toppoint Holdings Inc. to be filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, subject to completion of the applicable corporate action procedures. The Company is targeting November 23, 2026 for trading on a split-adjusted basis, subject to NYSE American’s authorization to resume trading. The Common Stock will retain the symbol “TOPP” and is expected to trade under the new CUSIP number 89078D 200.

As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every five shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will be combined into one share of Common Stock. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all stockholders uniformly and will not alter any stockholder’s percentage ownership interest in the Company, except with respect to the treatment of fractional shares. No fractional shares will be issued, and in lieu of issuing fractions of shares, the Company will round up to the nearest whole number at the participant level. The number of authorized shares and the par value of the Company’s capital stock will remain unchanged. Adjustments to any outstanding equity awards, warrants or other rights to acquire Common Stock will be made in accordance with their applicable terms.

Prior to the Reverse Stock Split and as of November 13, 2026, there are 24,700,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding. Immediately following the Reverse Stock Split, the Company expects to have approximately 4,940,000 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding, subject to adjustment for the rounding up of fractional shares held by registered holders.

Registered stockholders who hold shares of Common Stock in book-entry form with the Company’s transfer agent, VStock Transfer, LLC, are not required to take any action to receive post-Reverse Stock Split shares. Stockholders owning shares through an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, custodian or other similar organization acting as nominee will have their positions automatically adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, subject to such nominee’s particular processes, and will not be required to take any action in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Stockholders who hold shares with a bank, broker, custodian or other nominee and who have any questions in this regard are encouraged to contact their banks, brokers, custodians or other nominees.

Singapore, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Forcendra Holding Limited (Nasdaq: FCDH) (“Forcendra” or the “Company”) today announced that its board of directors (the “Board”) has approved a combination, or reverse share split, of the Company’s issued Class A ordinary shares of no par value each (the “Class A Ordinary Shares”) at a ratio of one-for-five (1-for-5) (the “Reverse Share Split”). The Reverse Share Split was approved by Resolution of Directors, and no further shareholder approval is required. The Reverse Share Split is expected to become effective on November 16, 2026, at 4:30 PM ET, subject to Nasdaq approval, and the Class A Ordinary Shares are expected to begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis at the market open on November 17, 2026 under the Company’s existing symbol “FCDH.” The number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares will change from 4,562,632 shares (pre-split) to approximately 912,526 shares (post-split), subject to adjustment for the rounding of fractional entitlements. In connection with the Reverse Share Split, the Class A Ordinary Shares have been assigned a new CUSIP number, G9517U129, which has been approved and made eligible for deposit and book-entry settlement through The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).

At the effective time of the Reverse Share Split, every five (5) issued Class A Ordinary Shares will be automatically combined into one (1) Class A Ordinary Share of no par value. Shareholders who hold their shares in book-entry form or in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee will not be required to take any action, and their positions will be adjusted automatically, subject to their nominee’s procedures. Transhare Corporation, the Company’s transfer agent and the keeper of its register of members, will update the register of members to give effect to the Reverse Share Split, and shareholders holding certificated shares may contact Transhare Corporation regarding the exchange of their share certificates. No fractional shares will be issued. Any shareholder who would otherwise be entitled to a fractional share will, if the fraction is equal to one-half or more, receive one whole Class A Ordinary Share, and any fraction of less than one-half will be cancelled.

The Reverse Share Split is intended to increase the per-share trading price of the Class A Ordinary Shares so that the Company continues to satisfy the US$1.00 minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iv). Upon effectiveness, the number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares will be reduced from 4,562,632 shares to approximately 912,526 shares, subject to adjustment for the rounding of fractional entitlements. The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Class A Ordinary Shares of no par value, and the Reverse Share Split will not change the Company’s authorized share capital or the no par value of the Class A Ordinary Shares. The Reverse Share Split will affect all holders of Class A Ordinary Shares uniformly and will not alter any shareholder’s percentage ownership interest, except to the extent of the rounding of fractional entitlements. Proportionate adjustments will be made to the number of Class A Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plans, and to the number of shares subject to, and the exercise or conversion price of, outstanding options, restricted share units, warrants, convertible securities and other rights to acquire Class A Ordinary Shares, in accordance with the terms of the applicable plan or instrument.

Proposed US$400 million business combination advances toward anticipated completion before year-end 2026

DUNCAN, Okla. and NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — REEcycle Holdings, Inc. (“REEcycle”), a U.S.-based rare-earth recycling technology company, and Hall Chadwick Acquisition Corp. (“HCAC”) (Nasdaq: HCAC), today announced that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has declared effective the registration statement on Form S-4 filed in connection with their previously announced business combination.

The declaration of effectiveness represents a significant milestone toward completion of the transaction and REEcycle’s proposed listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

Transaction Highlights

  • SEC effectiveness: The Form S-4 registration statement has been declared effective, enabling HCAC to proceed toward its shareholder vote on the proposed business combination.
  • Strategic U.S. critical minerals platform: REEcycle is developing proprietary technology to recover and separate rare-earth elements from end-of-life permanent magnets, supporting the development of domestic rare-earth supply chains.
  • U.S. government support: REEcycle has received a US$5.1 million award under the U.S. Department of War’s Defense Production Act Title III program.
  • Shareholder meeting: expected on December 10th 2026 to consider and vote upon the proposed business combination and related proposals.
  • Anticipated closing: The transaction is expected to close before year-end 2026, subject to shareholder approval and satisfaction or waiver of other closing conditions.

Advancing America’s Domestic Rare-Earth Supply Chain

REEcycle is developing a domestic source of recycled heavy and light rare-earth materials through its proprietary technology designed to recover and separate strategically important elements, including neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium, from end-of-life permanent magnets.

These materials are essential inputs for high-performance permanent magnets used in defense systems, electric vehicles, robotics, aerospace and advanced manufacturing.

REEcycle’s demonstration facility in Duncan, Oklahoma, forms an important part of its strategy to advance from demonstration-scale operations toward commercial production. The company is targeting the development of an initial commercial-scale facility with planned annual processing capacity of approximately 160 metric tons, subject to financing, engineering, construction and other development milestones.

With increasing emphasis on U.S. industrial onshoring and supply-chain security, REEcycle believes its proprietary technology offers a differentiated pathway to recovering valuable rare-earth materials from existing magnet waste streams.

Management Commentary

Mick McMullen, Founder and Executive Chairman of REEcycle, commented:

“Securing a reliable domestic supply of rare-earth materials is increasingly important to America’s national security and industrial competitiveness.

“REEcycle is focused on building the technology and processing capabilities needed to recover these critical materials here in the United States, rather than relying solely on overseas supply chains.”

Alex Bono, CEO , Hall Chadwick Acquisition Corp., commented:

“The SEC’s declaration of effectiveness marks a significant milestone in our proposed business combination with REEcycle.

“We believe REEcycle offers a compelling opportunity to participate in the development of a domestic U.S. rare-earth supply chain through a differentiated recycling and processing technology platform.

“We look forward to completing the transaction and supporting REEcycle’s next phase of growth as a Nasdaq-listed company.”

Transaction Overview and Next Steps

Under the terms of the previously announced business combination agreement, the proposed transaction values REEcycle at approximately US$350 million in equity value, and an additional US$50 million earnout, with existing REEcycle shareholders expected to roll over 100% of their equity interests into the combined company.

The transaction is expected to provide REEcycle with access to U.S. public capital markets to support its commercial development strategy, subject to available transaction proceeds and other applicable conditions.

Following the effectiveness of the registration statement, HCAC expects to hold a shareholder meeting on December 10th 2026 to consider and vote upon the proposed business combination and related proposals.

HCAC shareholders will be provided with the definitive proxy statement/prospectus containing important information regarding the transaction, voting procedures and redemption rights.

The business combination is anticipated to close before year-end 2026, subject to shareholder approval, satisfaction or waiver of applicable closing conditions and other regulatory and exchange requirements.

Upon completion, the combined company is expected to operate under the REEcycle name, with its common stock expected to trade on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol REC, subject to approval for listing.
