BOSTON, MA, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Netcapital Inc. (Nasdaq: NCPL) (the “Company”) today announced that on September 21, 2026, it received a notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) stating that, because the Company has not yet filed its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2026, and remains delinquent in filing its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2026, the Company is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1). That rule requires listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As previously announced on August 27, 2026, the Company received an earlier notice from Nasdaq on August 24, 2026 regarding the delinquent Form 10-K. Under that notice, the Company has until October 23, 2026 to submit a plan to regain compliance covering both delinquent reports. If Nasdaq accepts the plan, it may grant the Company an exception of up to 180 calendar days from the original due date of the Form 10-K, or until February 9, 2027, to regain compliance. If Nasdaq does not accept the plan, the Company may appeal to a Nasdaq Hearings Panel.

The notice has no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock, which continues to trade on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “NCPL.”

The Company intends to submit its compliance plan within the required timeframe and to file the Form 10-K and Form 10-Q as soon as practicable. There can be no assurance that Nasdaq will accept the plan or that the Company will regain compliance within any exception period granted.

Zug, Switzerland, September 25, 2026 – WISeKey International Holding Ltd (“WISeKey” or the “Company”) (SIX: WIHN; NASDAQ: WKEY) today announced that it expects the previously announced redomiciliation of WISeKey from Switzerland to the British Virgin Islands to become effective on October 2, 2026 (the “Redomiciliation”). The Redomiciliation is being implemented through the cross-border merger of WISeKey with and into its wholly owned British Virgin Islands subsidiary, WISeQey Corp. (formerly known as WISeKey International Corp., “WISeQey”), with WISeQey continuing as the surviving company (the “Merger”). The Merger and Redomiciliation are expected to become legally effective on October 2, 2026, following completion of the applicable registration procedures.

Upon the effectiveness of the Merger:

• WISeKey will be absorbed into WISeQey and WISeKey will cease to exist as a separate legal entity; and
• WISeQey will succeed to all of the assets, rights, liabilities and obligations of WISeKey;

The Redomiciliation is not expected to change WISeKey’s underlying businesses or operations. The WISeQey’s operational headquarters and place of effective management will remain in Switzerland, and its global operations will continue as before.

In connection with the expected completion of the Merger, the ordinary shares of WISeQey are expected to commence trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol “WQEY” and on the SIX Swiss Exchange, where they will have a primary listing, under the ticker symbol “WQEY”, on or about October 5, 2026.

We expect October 2, 2026 to be the last day of trading for the existing American Depositary Shares of WISeKey on Nasdaq and for the existing Class B shares of WISeKey on SIX Swiss Exchange. Following delisting and cancellation, holders of WISeKey securities will receive the applicable securities of WISeQey in accordance with the exchange ratios, elections and settlement procedures previously communicated to shareholders and described in the prospectus relating to the Merger, with the first day of trading for the WISeQey ordinary shares expected to occur on October 5, 2026.

WISeKey shareholders approved the Merger and the related Merger Agreement at the Extraordinary General Meeting held on September 9, 2026.

Carlos Moreira, Founder, Chairman and CEO of WISeKey, said: “The completion of our redomiciliation marks an important milestone in the evolution of WISeKey. It also marks the transition from WISeKey to WISeQey, a new name that symbolizes our strategic expansion into the quantum-security era. For 27 years, WISeKey has built its expertise around cybersecurity, digital identity, trusted semiconductors and secure communications. WISeQey represents the extension of that experience into the quantum world, with quantum security becoming an increasingly important pillar across our technologies and investments. The ‘Q’ in WISeQey reflects this evolution. Our objective is to combine nearly three decades of cybersecurity expertise with post-quantum cryptography, quantum technologies, secure semiconductors, trusted AI and satellite-based secure communications to help build the next generation of digital trust infrastructure. With WISeQey’s redomiciliation to the British Virgin Islands, we believe the new corporate structure will provide greater flexibility to support our continued international development and access to global capital markets, while maintaining our operational headquarters, effective management and roots in Switzerland.
This is therefore more than a change of domicile and corporate name. It represents the next chapter of WISeKey: building on the 27-year heritage of WISeKey while expanding our mission from securing today’s digital world to securing the emerging quantum world. We would like to thank our shareholders, employees, partners and advisors for their continued support throughout this transformation.”

• Marucci Sports divestiture completed for total enterprise value of $225 million
• $200 million received in cash at closing applied in full to debt reduction

DULUTH, Ga., Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Fox Factory Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: FOXF) (“FOX” or the “Company”), a premium brand and a global leader in the design, engineering and manufacturing of performance-defining products and systems for customers worldwide, today announced that it has completed the sale of Wheelhouse Holdings Inc., the parent company of Marucci Sports LLC, to Squared Up Holdings, LLC for an enterprise value of $225 million. Consideration is comprised of $200 million in cash at closing, subject to certain adjustments, and an unsecured subordinated convertible promissory note in the amount of $25 million (inclusive of both principal and interest) that matures on December 31, 2026. If the note is not satisfied in full by that date, the Company has the option, but not the obligation, to convert the outstanding balance into equity of the parent company of Squared Up Holdings, LLC. Squared Up Holdings, LLC is an acquisition vehicle for an investor group led by and including members of Marucci’s existing senior management. The transaction concludes the review of strategic alternatives for Marucci that the Company announced in February 2026.

The Board of Directors, with the assistance of its independent financial and legal advisors, conducted an extensive process that began with the announcement of the strategic review in February 2026 and evaluated a range of alternatives for Marucci, including retaining the business. Over the course of the process, the Company and its financial advisors contacted over 80 potential acquirers and received 15 indications of interest. Members of Marucci management who participated in the buyer group did not take part in the Company’s evaluation of proposals, and the Board engaged third-party financial advisors in connection with its evaluation of the transaction. Following this process, the Board approved this transaction as the best combination of value and path forward for Fox and its shareholders.

Mike Dennison, FOX’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Marucci is a strong brand with talented people and a loyal following among athletes, and we believe it is well positioned for continued success under new ownership. It did not deliver the returns we expected inside Fox, and we determined the optimal path forward was to improve our balance sheet and reallocate capital. We remain focused on building performance products for professional athletes and the enthusiasts who follow them, and our capital allocation priorities are unchanged: pay down debt, invest organically behind our performance products to ensure we retain the leadership position we’ve earned, and hold ourselves to a high return threshold on capital investments.”

The $200 million of cash proceeds received at closing was applied in full to reduce outstanding borrowings under the Company’s credit facility. The Company incurred approximately $7.5 million in transaction related costs, which did not reduce the closing cash proceeds but the Company intends to satisfy separately with cash on hand. Had the transaction closed on July 3, 2026, net leverage would have been approximately 2.7 times, compared to 3.7 times as reported, as calculated under the Company’s credit agreement. Annualized interest expense is reduced by approximately $16 million. Upon receipt of the $25 million deferred amount, which is payable on or before December 31, 2026 under the terms of the promissory note and is not contingent on performance, the full amount is expected to be applied to further reduce outstanding borrowings at that time, resulting in an expected further reduction in net leverage and an expected cumulative reduction in annualized interest expense of approximately $17 million.
