TEL AVIV, Israel, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HUB Cyber Security Ltd. (Nasdaq: HUBC) (“HUB” or the “Company”) today announced that on September 23, 2026 it received a letter from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), notifying the Company that it is currently not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of US$35 million (“MVLS”) for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (the “MVLS Requirement”). This press release is issued pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(b), which requires prompt disclosure of receipt of a deficiency notification. The notification has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s ordinary shares, which will continue to trade uninterrupted on Nasdaq under the ticker “HUBC.”

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), the Company has a compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until March 22, 2027 (the “Compliance Period”), to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s MVLS Requirement. If at any time during the Compliance Period, the Company’s MVLS closes at US$35 million or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days, Nasdaq will provide the Company written confirmation of compliance, and the matter will be closed. If the Company fails to regain compliance within the Compliance Period, the Company will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting, and it would have the right to a hearing before an independent panel pursuant to the procedures set forth in the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The hearing request would stay any suspension or delisting action pending the conclusion of the hearing process. However, there can be no assurance, if the Company does appeal the delisting determination by Nasdaq to the hearings panel, that such appeal would be successful.

The Company intends to take all reasonable measures available to regain compliance with MVLS Requirement under the Nasdaq Listing Rules and to remain listed on Nasdaq. However, there can be no assurances that the Company would ultimately be able to regain compliance with all applicable requirements for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

BAYONNE, N.J., Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BCB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), (NASDAQ: BCBP), the holding company for BCB Community Bank (the “Bank”), announced today that the Bank has entered into definitive agreements to sell several portfolios of certain problem loans, most of which are rated criticized or classified under the Bank’s internal risk rating system. Between September 21 and September 24, 2026, the Bank entered into definitive agreements with six different purchasers providing for the sale of loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $205.3 million as of June 30, 2026.

The portfolios being sold consist of commercial and multifamily real estate loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $180.7 million, commercial and industrial (C&I) loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $14.8 million, and construction loans with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of approximately $9.8 million, in each case, as of June 30, 2026. None of the Bank’s business express loans are included in the portfolios. The estimated pre-tax loss attributable to these loan sales is $43.3 million, which will be recorded in the third quarter of 2026.

Closing has occurred with respect to five of the six loan sale transactions, with the last transaction expected to close before the end of the third quarter of 2026. Each definitive agreement is independent of the others, and the closing of any one agreement was not conditioned on the closing of any other.

Hilltop Securities Inc. served as financial advisor and Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP served as legal counsel to the Bank in connection with the successful execution of these transactions.

Thomas M. O’Brien, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, stated, “Since I joined the Company, we have moved quickly to reassess our credit risk ratings and take decisive action on our legacy credit challenges. We committed to aggressively address these issues and to put transparent, actionable solutions in place promptly, and the sale transactions we are announcing today, covering approximately $205 million in problem loans, reflect that commitment in practice. We believe these sales meaningfully de-risk our balance sheet and remove a significant source of uncertainty, allowing us to focus our energy on building a stronger, more sustainable, and profitable institution going forward.”

Forward-Looking Statements

This release, like many written and oral communications presented by BCB Bancorp, Inc., and our authorized officers, may contain certain forward-looking statements regarding our prospective performance and strategies within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of said safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies, and expectations of the Company, are generally identified by use of words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “seek,” “strive,” “try,” or future or conditional verbs such as “could,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” or similar expressions. Our ability to predict results or the actual effects of our plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from anticipated results.

The most significant factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated by our forward-looking statements include the global impact of the military conflicts in the Ukraine and the Middle East, the potential impact of any future Federal budget stalemate in Congress, global tariffs imposed by the Trump administration, higher inflation levels, and general economic concerns, all of which could impact economic growth and could cause increased loan delinquencies, a reduction in financial transactions and business activities, including decreased deposits and reduced loan originations. Other factors that could cause future results to vary materially from current management expectations as reflected in our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: our ability to manage liquidity and capital in a rapidly changing and unpredictable market, supply chain disruptions, labor shortages; unfavorable economic conditions in the United States generally and particularly in our primary market area; the Company’s ability to effectively attract and deploy deposits; changes in the Company’s corporate strategies, the composition of its assets, or the way in which it funds those assets; shifts in investor sentiment or behavior in the securities, capital, or other financial markets, including changes in market liquidity or volatility; the effects of declines in real estate values that may adversely impact the collateral underlying our loans; increase in unemployment levels and slowdowns in economic growth; our level of non-performing assets and the costs associated with resolving any problem loans including litigation and other costs; the impact of changes in interest rates and the credit quality and strength of underlying collateral and the effect of such changes on the market value of our loan and investment securities portfolios; the credit risk associated with our loan portfolio; changes in the quality and composition of the Bank’s loan and investment portfolios; changes in our ability to access cost-effective funding; deposit flows; legislative and regulatory changes, including increases in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance rates; monetary and fiscal policies of the federal and state governments; changes in tax policies, rates and regulations of federal, state and local tax authorities; demands for our loan products; demand for financial services; competition; changes in the securities or secondary mortgage markets; changes in management’s business strategies; changes in consumer spending; our ability to hire and retain key employees; the effects of any reputational, credit, interest rate, market, operational, legal, liquidity, or regulatory risk; expanding regulatory requirements which could adversely affect operating results; civil unrest in the communities that we serve; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this report, and in other reports we filed with the SEC, including under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2025, and our other periodic reports that we file with the SEC.

CALGARY, Alberta, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Computer Modelling Group Ltd. (“CMG” or the “Company”) (TSX: CMG), today announced that it has taken up and paid for 4,444,444 of its common shares (“Shares”) at a price of C$4.50 per Share (the “Purchase Price”) under CMG’s substantial issuer bid (the “SIB”) to repurchase for cancellation a number of its Shares for an aggregate purchase price not to exceed C$20 million.

Final Results of SIB

The Shares purchased under the SIB represent an aggregate purchase price of approximately C$19,999,998 and approximately 5.7% of the total number of CMG’s issued and outstanding Shares as of September 21, 2026. After giving effect to the SIB, CMG will have approximately 73.6 million Shares issued and outstanding.

Based on the final calculations of Olympia Trust Company (the “Depositary”) as depositary for the SIB, a total of 4,657,844 Shares were tendered to the SIB pursuant to auction tenders and purchase price tenders, of which 3,933,679 Shares were taken up and purchased. Since the SIB was oversubscribed, shareholders who made auction tenders at or below the Purchase Price and shareholders who made, or were deemed to have made, purchase price tenders had approximately 84% of their successfully tendered Shares purchased by CMG (other than “odd lot” tenders, which were not subject to proration). In addition, 8,966,715 Shares were tendered pursuant to proportionate tenders, of which 510,765 Shares were taken up and purchased.

Payment and settlement of the purchased Shares will be effected by the Depositary on or about September 30, 2026 in accordance with the SIB and applicable law. Any Shares not purchased, including Shares invalidly tendered, will be returned to shareholders promptly by the Depositary.

The full details of the SIB are described in the offer to purchase and issuer bid circular dated August 14, 2026, as well as the related letter of transmittal and notice of guaranteed delivery, copies of which were filed and are available under our profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

To assist shareholders in determining the tax consequences of the SIB, CMG estimates that for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), the paid-up capital per Share is approximately C$1.025. Given that the Purchase Price exceeds the paid-up capital per Share, shareholders who have sold Shares to CMG under the SIB will be deemed to have received a taxable dividend as a result of such sale for Canadian federal income tax purposes equal to the amount by which the Purchase Price exceeds the paid-up capital per Share. The dividend deemed to have been paid by CMG to Canadian resident persons is designated as an “eligible dividend” for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and any corresponding provincial and territorial tax legislation.

The “specified amount” for purposes of subsection 191(4) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) is C$3.89, being the closing trading price for the Shares on the TSX on September 21, 2026.

Shareholders should consult with their own tax and other advisors with respect to the income tax consequences of the disposition of their Shares under the SIB.

This press release is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell Shares.

All information contained in this press release, other than statements of current and historical fact, is forward-looking information, including statements regarding the terms of the SIB (including the timing of payment and settlement of Shares purchased under the SIB), the number of Shares expected to be issued and outstanding after completion of the SIB, and other statements that are not historical facts (collectively, “forward-looking information”).

ATHENS, Greece, Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rubico Inc. (Nasdaq: RUBI) (“Rubico,” or the “Company”), a global provider of shipping transportation services specializing in the ownership of vessels, announces that, in relation to the previously announced stock dividend of 0.50 common shares for each common share outstanding (the “Stock Dividend”), the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) has determined that the ex-dividend date will be October 6, 2026. The Stock Dividend will be distributed on or about October 5, 2026 (the “Distribution Date”) to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 28, 2026. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Stock Dividend; any fractional shares resulting from the Stock Dividend will be paid in cash based on the closing price of the Company’s common shares on Nasdaq on September 28, 2026.

As a result of “due bill” trading procedures expected to be established by Nasdaq, Rubico common shares are expected to trade with due bills from September 28, 2026 through and including the Distribution Date. Accordingly, holders of Rubico common shares as of September 28, 2026 will need to hold such shares through and including the Distribution Date in order to receive the Stock Dividend.

This would mean that holders who purchase Rubico common shares during the due bill period (even if the trades are to be settled after the due bill period) will be entitled to receive the Stock Dividend with respect to those shares. Conversely, sellers who sell Rubico common shares during the due bill period (even if the trades are to be settled after the due bill period) will not be entitled to the Stock Dividend with respect to those shares.

Due bills obligate a seller of securities to deliver the distribution payable on such securities to the buyer. The due bill obligations are customarily settled between the brokers representing buyers and sellers of the securities. The Company has no obligation for either the amount of the due bill or the processing of the due bill. Buyers and sellers of Rubico’s common shares should consult their brokers before trading to ensure they understand the effect of Nasdaq’s due bill procedures.

About the Company

Rubico Inc. is a global provider of shipping transportation services specializing in the ownership of vessels. The Company is an international owner and operator of two modern, fuel efficient, eco 157,000 dwt Suezmax tankers. Furthermore, the Company owns two 47,499 dwt MR tanker newbuildings scheduled for delivery in the third and fourth quarters of 2029 and a 60-meter newbuilding megayacht scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2027, which the Company intends to divest. In addition, the Company has entered into a share purchase agreement to acquire a shipowning company that owns one high-specification 47,499 dwt MR tanker newbuilding scheduled for delivery in the second quarter of 2029, with closing of this share purchase agreement to occur by September 30, 2026.

PASCAGOULA, Miss., Sept. 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HII (NYSE: HII) welcomed members of the National Commission on the Future of the Navy (FNC) to its Ingalls Shipbuilding division Thursday as part of the commission’s nationwide review to develop recommendations for strengthening American seapower.

The visit provided commission members with a firsthand look at the shipbuilding capabilities, workforce training and industrial investments that support the Navy’s future fleet requirements. As part of its comprehensive study of naval strategy, resources, force structure and the industrial base, the commission is assessing the nation’s shipbuilding capacity and long-term production needs.

“A strong Navy relies on a capable and resilient industrial base,” Commissioner Mitch Waldman said. “We are grateful for the opportunity to see firsthand the significant industrial capacity and workforce capability that Ingalls Shipbuilding provides as the commission continues to assess the nation’s ability to design, build and sustain the future Navy.”

During the visit, commission members toured key production and training areas, including the Flight III Arleigh Burke-class destroyer Jeremiah Denton (DDG 129), the Virtual Reality Welding Lab and the Maritime Training Academy. The tour highlighted the pace and scale of Ingalls’ operations, as well as major infrastructure investments designed to support increased throughput across the U.S. maritime industrial base.

“Ingalls shipbuilders bring unmatched skill and dedication to every ship we build, and it was a privilege to show the commission how their work in the shipyard directly supports the fleet,” said Eric Crooker, Ingalls vice president of program management. “With more than 87 years of experience building ships for the U.S. Navy, and over a dozen ships in active construction, our team’s dedication and upcoming ship deliveries demonstrate the strength of our workforce and the capability we provide to the nation.”

With 13 ships in construction and three deliveries planned in the next year, Ingalls Shipbuilding offers a firsthand view of the production capacity and workforce capabilities central to meeting future fleet requirements. The shipyard’s recent progress through its distributed shipbuilding program further illustrates its role in the broader maritime industrial base.

Congress established the FNC to provide an independent review of naval force structure, shipbuilding performance and industrial-base requirements. Public hearings began in March 2026, with initial findings expected in January 2027.

As America’s largest shipbuilder, HII supports national defense by building and maintaining the Navy and Marine Corps ships that underpin U.S. seapower. Through investments in advanced digital and automated production technologies, workforce development and industrial-base capacity, HII works to support the readiness and sustainment of the nation’s fleet.
