VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Almadex Minerals Ltd. (“Almadex” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: “DEX”) is pleased to announce that it has expanded its claim block by staking at its wholly owned New Hope copper-gold porphyry exploration project in Arizona, USA. The new expanded New Hope claim block covers a broad area of high chargeability to the east of where the Company’s two-hole exploratory drill campaign was carried out (see Almadex news releases of April 1 and June 30^th 2026). The Company is currently planning how a potential phase II drilling program might be conducted. The Company also reports that drilling operations have finished with one hole completed to 980 metres depth at the Company’s King copper-gold porphyry lithocap target in Colorado, USA. Samples have been submitted for assay and further information will be provided when all results have been received and compiled. A review of the New Hope project exploration results previously reported are provided below.

Highlights and Review of 2026 New Hope Results

• Additional staking has been carried out to cover the large New Hope porphyry alteration zone defined by surface mapping and geophysics;
• Magnetics and mapping suggest that the 2026 New Hope drilling previously reported is on the western edge of a 2.5 km x 0.75 km area of mapped phyllic and remnant lithocap porphyry alteration;
• IP geophysics has extended the IP geophysical anomaly 1.95 km to the east of the line where both holes were drilled;
• The Company’s completed and previously reported drill holes confirmed a large porphyry alteration system including the presence of a tourmaline bearing breccia pipe. Short zones of mineralisation with trace chalcopyrite were intersected in the second hole, including 6.00 metres @ 0.15% copper and 156 ppm molybdenum;
• The Company is currently designing a potential phase II drilling program.

J Duane Poliquin, Chairman of Almadex commented, “The results from our past drilling, combined with the expanded geophysical target, highlight the scale of the porphyry system at New Hope. We are pleased to have expanded the claim position and are now evaluating options for a potential second phase of drilling.”

About the New Hope Project

The New Hope project in SW Arizona covers a large (2.5 by 0.75 km) area of mapped phyllic and remnant lithocap porphyry alteration. Drone-based magnetics suggest that the drilling to date is on the western edge of the alteration zone and a broad magnetics low associated with this alteration zone (see map attached). The recent IP lines surveyed to the east of the initial line supports this interpretation as the chargeability remains strong and open in this direction. Two diamond drill holes were completed in 2026, both drilled from the same pad (see Almadex news releases of April 1 and June 30^th 2026). The first hole intersected andesite porphyry affected by moderate to strong phyllic alteration and zones of quartz veining to 384 meters when, after a zone of faulting and brecciation, propylitic to potassic alteration was encountered. Within the phyllic alteration, pyrite contents were up to an estimated 7% although no significant copper mineralisation was encountered. The second hole was collared from the same pad as the first hole and intersected an andesite intruded by late diorite dykes to 483 metres at which point a large breccia body was encountered. The andesite is affected by phyllic, argillic and propylitic alteration with pyrite contents up to 5%, and the diorite by potassic to propylitic alteration. The breccia body is comprised of clasts from a range of largely intrusive lithologies affected by silicification, phyllic and propylitic alteration. The matrix is often silicified with pyrite and abundant tourmaline. Veins of tourmaline and pyrite also crosscut the breccia. Two zones of copper mineralisation with traces of chalcopyrite were intersected:

498.00 to 504.00 m (6.00 m) @ 0.15 % Cu and 156 ppm Mo (fault zone with traces of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and galena)

Including 500.00 to 502.00 m (2.00 m) @ 0.34% Cu and 326 ppm Mo

        778.00 to 780.00 m (2.00 m) @ 0.14% Cu and 5 ppm Mo (tourmaline bearing breccia)

The two holes confirm the presence of a large porphyry alteration system. Tourmaline bearing breccias are common in porphyry environments and are often a late overprinting feature. The breccia fragments and associated alteration suggest that the drilling to date may be on the periphery of the core to a porphyry system which has not yet been intersected. The presence of copper is encouraging, as is the expansion of the IP anomaly to the east where previous mapping has traced phyllic alteration.

HP technology and expertise helped transform Ferrari’s design celebrating the ideas, people and engineering behind the car into a race-ready reality

News highlights:

• The special Austin livery marks the latest expression of HP’s partnership with Ferrari, advancing HP innovation in new ways to realize a complex design and generating knowledge for applications beyond motorsport.
• HP technology underpins the journey from digital design to physical execution, spanning printing, materials, application and digital workflows.
• The livery takes two distinct forms enabled by HP: a race-ready livery for Austin and a display car with hidden graphics revealed under ultraviolet light.

AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today, HP Inc. (NYSE: HPQ) revealed how HP technology and expertise helped bring to life Scuderia Ferrari HP’s ambitious design for its special United States Grand Prix livery.

HP’s printing and material capabilities enabled the production of two expressions of Ferrari’s creative concept: a race livery for the cars competing in Austin and a dedicated display car featuring hidden graphics that fluoresce blue under ultraviolet light. Through the collaboration, HP advanced its technologies in new ways, generating insights for future customer challenges across industries.

Conceived and designed by Ferrari, the livery was realized through a close technical collaboration with HP and celebrates the pioneering work behind the design of the car. Inspired by the idea that every Ferrari begins as a line on paper, the livery reveals sketches, technical drawings and engineering details normally concealed beneath the bodywork, paying tribute to the people and processes behind performance.

HP print technology and race-proven vehicle wrapping expertise helped translate Ferrari’s intricate graphics onto the Formula 1 car, enabling the design to flow seamlessly across its complex bodywork while withstanding the heat, handling and maintenance procedures scheduled throughout the race weekend.

“Our partnership with Scuderia Ferrari HP pushes us to explore new possibilities for our technology,” said Anneliese Olson, President, Imaging, Printing, and Solutions, HP Inc. “HP printing and color science engineers worked alongside Ferrari’s designers and engineers from the outset, bringing together expertise from across HP to turn ambitious concepts into a race-ready reality and generate insights we can apply to future customer challenges.”

“The livery celebrates the journey from idea to reality. Every Ferrari starts with creativity, sketches and engineering expertise long before the car reaches the track. Thanks to our collaboration with HP, we were able to bring that process to life visually and tell a story that reveals the craftsmanship and innovation behind the performance,” said Silvia Cavallaro, Head of Color and Trim at Ferrari.

A Shared Ambition for Innovation

Developing the livery brought Ferrari teams in Maranello and HP engineers in Barcelona together through multiple rounds of testing and refinement. Guided by Ferrari’s creative vision, the teams continually adapted materials and application techniques to achieve the final result.

For the race cars competing in Austin at the weekend, HP Latex technology and large format vehicle wrapping expertise reproduced Ferrari’s blueprint graphics across the finished car.

To take the visual expression further, the teams also created a version of the livery for a dedicated display car. Hidden graphics were engineered to fluoresce blue under ultraviolet light, reinforcing the concept of revealing the work that normally remains unseen. Producing the effect required HP engineers to adapt an existing invisible blue ink for the HP Indigo 200K Digital Press and refine its application across the car’s complex curves.

HP Z Workstations supported the digital design and engineering workflows used to prepare the livery, enabling Ferrari to transfer the creative onto the car’s bodywork geometry before physical production.

New Possibilities Beyond the Racetrack

The development work has generated knowledge with potential opportunities beyond motorsport, including in packaging and commercial print.

Adapting invisible blue ink to the HP Indigo 200K platform provides a foundation for exploring further applications, including brand protection features in labels and flexible packaging. Testing new combinations of primers, inks and wrapping materials could also support future customer development projects.

For large format printing, the project showed how HP Latex technology and vehicle wrapping expertise can bring intricate designs to complex surfaces, withstanding demanding conditions including exposure to high temperatures, speeds and the operational demands of a Formula 1 race weekend. These capabilities also support specialist graphics environments requiring exceptional performance and precision.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mustang Minerals Limited (“Mustang” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: MMX; OTCQB: MMXLF) is pleased to announce that IP geophysical work at both its Confusion Hills and Pilot Projects in Nevada are now complete. The results help better define the drill targets at both projects. Further work is planned for Pilot prior to drilling; however, the Company has sufficient information to plan a single-hole exploratory diamond drilling program at the Confusion Hills Project. Preparatory work for this drill program has commenced. The Company will provide an update when drilling operations begin.

J Duane Poliquin, Chairman of Mustang commented, “We are excited to be back at work on our Nevada portfolio and look forward to starting our drilling program at Confusion Hills.”

The Company’s USA exploration properties are located in central Nevada and are considered prospective for copper-gold porphyry and high sulphidation gold-silver-copper style mineralisation. The Red Ring and Confusion Hills Projects have preserved high sulphidation style alteration on surface with potential for associated gold mineralization, while the Pilot Project is being explored for copper-gold mineralisation beneath pyrophyllite-sericite alteration mapped at surface. Additional information on each property is provided below.

Pilot Porphyry Copper-Gold Prospect, Nevada
The Pilot Project covers an area of hydrothermal alteration developed in folded sedimentary rocks that have been intruded by tonalite porphyry bodies exposed in drainages. In 2024, Almadex conducted extensive alteration and geologic mapping along with rock and soil sampling, IP geophysics and a drone-based magnetics survey. The alteration is dominated by pyrophyllite with white mica. A soil sampling program defined a broad zone of anomalous copper-molybdenum and gold coincident with high chargeability from an IP survey and a distinct magnetic high. A drill permit for the Pilot Project has been approved.

Confusion Hills Porphyry-Epithermal Gold-Copper Prospect, Nevada
The Confusion Hills high sulphidation prospect covers a large alteration zone developed in volcanic rocks. On April 15, 2025 Almadex announced that to date 107 grab rock samples had been taken from outcrop, subcrop and float (grab samples are selected samples and may not represent true underlying mineralisation). These preliminary results were very encouraging as 6 of these samples returned over 0.1 g/t gold with 3 returning more than 0.5 g/t gold (up to 7.1 g/t gold in a grab sample of subcrop and averaging 1.6 g/t gold for all 6). These significant results are all associated with altered breccia in the central part of the project where mapping in 2024 and 2025 defined a high sulphidation/porphyry lithocap over an area of 1.6 km x 0.5 km. The lithocap displays complex alteration with central zones of vuggy quartz with alunite and massive pyrophyllite zones. Soil sampling carried out in 2024 returned anomalous Au, Mo and Cu with an association of Au within the central zone of alteration and a Mo anomaly on one edge. An IP geophysical survey on the Property identified a high chargeability feature (interpreted to represent sulphide development) directly beneath the area of quartz alunite alteration and high gold in grab samples at surface. A drone-based magnetic survey was also conducted to aid with interpretation. A drill permit has been approved for the Confusion Hills prospect.

Red Ring Porphyry-Epithermal Gold-Copper Prospect, Nevada
The Red Ring prospect covers an area of hydrothermal alteration developed in volcanic rocks adjacent to carbonate rocks. Alteration mapping in 2024 identified a large alteration zone interpreted to be a porphyry lithocap extending 2.8 km NW-SE by at least 1 km NE-SW. Mapping also defined a very strong surface pyrophyllite footprint of 1 km (NW-SE) by 0.5 km (NE-SW). Preliminary rock sampling returned high values of pathfinder trace elements typically associated with the lithocap alteration identified. Soil sampling conducted in 2024 also highlighted areas of anomalous trace elements indicative of a high sulphidation environment above or near a porphyry system.

Qualified Persons and Technical Details
Morgan J Poliquin, PhD, PEng, the President and CEO of Mustang and a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”), has reviewed and approved the scientific and technical contents of this news release. Independent 43-101 Technical Reports describing the work conducted on each property to date and authored by Brian Brewer, MSc, CPG, a qualified person as defined by 43-101, have been filed on SEDAR.

The samples reported in this news release were taken from outcrop, subcrop and float. Grab samples are selected samples and may not represent true underlying mineralisation. The analyses reported were carried out at ALS Chemex Laboratories of Reno and North Vancouver using industry standard analytical techniques. For gold, samples are first analysed by fire assay and atomic absorption spectroscopy (“AAS”). Samples that return values greater than 10 g/t gold using this technique are then re analysed by fire assay but with a gravimetric finish.

The IP lines were surveyed using Almadex’s highly experienced team and equipment (GDD transmitter and Iris Elrec-6 receivers using a 100 m dipole in a pole-dipole array on 8 levels). Pseudo sections were prepared, and the data was inverted using RES2DINV software. The magnetics surveys were conducted by a third-party contractor using a Geometrics MagArrow Cesium Magnetometer flown under an ArcSky X55 quadcopter. The MagArrow sensor takes 1000 readings per second and is flown at a maximum speed of 8m/second. The sensor is suspended on a 3m lanyard to remove it from the electromagnetic noise of the UAV. Data is down sampled after collection to 10Hz. The MagArrow readings are diurnally corrected via a geometrics G-862RBS Magnetometer, cycling at 10Hz. Geophysical surveys are not definitive, and the results are still at an early stage of interpretation, with no guarantee of a mineral discovery.

• Press Release Week 42 & 43 – October 15 to October 21, 2026

LAS VEGAS, Nevada, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Consumer Portfolio Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: CPSS) (“CPS” or the “Company”) announced the closing of its fourth term securitization in 2026 on Wednesday October 21, 2026. The transaction is CPS’s 61st senior subordinate securitization since the beginning of 2011, and the 44^th consecutive securitization to receive a triple “A” rating from at least two rating agencies on the senior class of notes. It also marks the 111^th securitization in the history of the Company.

In the transaction, qualified institutional buyers purchased $767.85 million of asset-backed notes secured by $797.36 million in automobile receivables originated by CPS. The sold notes, issued by CPS Auto Receivables Trust 2026-D, consist of five classes. Ratings of the notes were provided by Moody’s and DBRS Morningstar, and were based on the structure of the transaction, the historical performance of similar receivables and CPS’s experience as a servicer.

Note Class	Amount (in millions)	Interest Rate	Average Life (years)	Price	Moody’s Rating	DBRS Rating
A	$ 356.340	5.14%	0.71	99.99500%	Aaa	AAA
B	$ 111.470	5.59%	1.84	99.99423%	Aaa	AA
C	$ 118.090	6.01%	2.54	99.98129%	Aa3	A
D	$ 71.120	6.55%	3.31	99.98877%	Baa2	BBB
E	$ 110.830	8.56%	4.05	99.98762%	NR	BB

The weighted average coupon on the notes is approximately 6.68%.  

The 2026-D transaction has initial credit enhancement consisting of a cash deposit equal to 1.00% of the original receivable pool balance and overcollateralization of 3.70%. The transaction agreements require accelerated payment of principal on the notes to reach overcollateralization of the lesser of 8.00% of the original receivable pool balance, or 19.40% of the then outstanding pool balance.        

The transaction was a private offering of securities, not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, or any state securities law. All such securities having been sold, this announcement of their sale appears as a matter of record only.

HONG KONG, Oct. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — 3 E Network Technology Group Limited (Nasdaq: MASK) (the “Company” or “3 E Network”), a business-to-business (“B2B”) information technology (“IT”) business solutions provider committed to becoming a next-generation artificial intelligence (“AI”) infrastructure solutions provider, today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, 3e Network Technology Company Limited (HK), has entered into a hardware sales agreement with a major enterprise client. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will supply the client with core storage components, primarily including enterprise-grade memory modules and data center-grade storage controllers, valued at approximately $5.0 million.

Expanding Hardware Delivery Scale, Demonstrating Supply Chain Fulfillment Capabilities

Following the previous successful delivery of a million-dollar memory component order, this approximately $5.0 million sales contract reflects growth in transaction size and an expansion of the product portfolio within the Company’s IT hardware supply chain business segment. The core deliverables of this order include high-volume batches of high-density enterprise memory modules and data center-grade storage controllers. Amid continued global data center expansion and growing demand for edge computing, demand for high-capacity memory and efficient storage controllers remains resilient. The signing of this order reflects the growing sourcing capabilities, high-volume order processing capacity, and established global fulfillment network of 3 E Network’s subsidiary in the electronic components distribution market.

Integrating Industry Resources, Enhancing Supply Chain Bargaining Power

In the current global semiconductor and compute hardware market, establishing a distribution and procurement network with economies of scale is an important avenue for securing upstream manufacturer support. Through multi-million-dollar hardware distribution transactions, 3 E Network continues to strengthen its relationships with leading global memory chip and electronic component manufacturers.

These supplier relationships and procurement capabilities developed through the hardware distribution business not only support the Company’s existing B2B IT solutions business but are also anticipated to benefit its infrastructure projects. As the procurement process for multi-million-dollar core hardware requirements for the Mikkeli AI compute center in Finland officially commences, the supplier relationships and credit history established through the hardware distribution business are expected to assist the Company in securing favorable procurement terms and priority allocation in future centralized compute hardware procurement, thereby enhancing the overall capital expenditure efficiency of the AI compute center.

Implementing the Dual-Wheel Drive Financial Strategy, Supporting R&D with Operating Cash Flow

The hardware distribution and trade business is an important component of 3 E Network’s overall revenue portfolio and plays a key role in the Company’s long-term financial planning. From a financial planning perspective, this business segment, together with the Company’s capital-intensive compute infrastructure development and proprietary chip R&D, constitutes a ‘dual-wheel drive’ model.

Currently, capital-intensive initiatives, including the 9 MVA European AI compute center, which recently began comprehensive hardware evaluation, and the ongoing microarchitecture design of the next-generation proprietary AI storage controller, require substantial capital. The expected positive operating cash flow generated from this approximately $5.0 million order will provide important internal liquidity support for these strategic projects. This approach aims to reduce the Company’s reliance on external dilutive financing while advancing core AI technology R&D and capital-intensive infrastructure development, helping the Company maintain long-term strategic investments amid the cyclical fluctuations of the semiconductor industry.

Management Commentary

Dr. Tingjun Yang, Chief Executive Officer of 3 E Network, stated, “The signing of this sales contract, valued at approximately $5.0 million, demonstrates the Company’s ability to meet the large-scale IT hardware needs of enterprise clients. It also reflects our supply chain team’s achievements in developing a global sourcing and fulfillment network.”

Dr. Yang added, “Facing robust demand for compute infrastructure, 3 E Network maintains a pragmatic growth strategy. The regular hardware trade business generates steady operating cash flow, providing vital non-dilutive financial support for our European AI compute center layout and proprietary AI chip R&D. Moving forward, we will continue to deepen our ‘dual-wheel drive’ strategy, ensuring steady growth in our existing IT supply chain business while solidly advancing our commercialization process in the AI compute infrastructure market.”
