Through Terminal1, companies can access a growing suite of capabilities including:
The platform is designed to provide CEOs, CFOs, investor relations teams, and other public-company executives with greater visibility into not only who owns their stock, but also how investors are interacting with the company.
“Adding Scorpio Gold Corp (NASDAQ:SGLD) is another important milestone for Terminal1,” added De Souza. “Our goal is straightforward: give public companies one system to understand their shareholders, communicate with the market, and measure what is actually driving investor engagement.”
Terminal1 continues to expand its public-company customer base as it builds out additional capabilities across shareholder intelligence, communications, analytics, and investor relations infrastructure.

First-to-market Eataly, Seafood City and Din Tai Fung locations highlight growing roster of experience-forward dining and food-related concepts
A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Macerich (NYSE: MAC) is accelerating restaurant leasing across its Class A shopping center portfolio, bringing a growing roster of destination dining, international food brands and experience-forward concepts to top U.S. markets as the retail REIT leader continues to elevate and transform its top-quality properties.
New and upcoming openings include first-to-market locations for Eataly, Seafood City, Din Tai Fung, Telefèric Barcelona and other sought-after brands at Macerich properties nationwide, from Tysons Corner Center in metro Washington, D.C., to Scottsdale Fashion Square in Arizona.
As a leading owner, operator and developer of major retail properties in top markets, Macerich views dining as an increasingly important part of the tenant mix, creating more reasons to visit, stay longer and return more often while strengthening traffic and productivity for retailers throughout the property. The Macerich strategy reflects broader shifts in how consumers use shopping centers. In August 2026, indoor mall traffic rose 5.0% year over year while average visit duration also increased, with Placer.ai pointing to the growing role of dining, attractions, events and placemaking. Dining is particularly important to younger shoppers: CBRE reports that 33% of Gen Z consumers want to eat as part of a shopping outing.
“The strongest restaurant brands are looking for top-drawing locations where they can become part of the destination, not simply occupy a space,” said Guy Mercurio, Vice President of National Restaurant Leasing at Macerich. “Our portfolio gives restaurants access to high-quality markets at properties where dining, retail and entertainment work together to drive traffic and increase dwell time. That is helping us attract both established global names and distinctive emerging concepts.”
Scottsdale Fashion Square: A Magnet for First-to-Market Dining
Arizona’s luxury powerhouse Scottsdale Fashion Square continues to evolve as a dining destination, where Nobu and Ocean 44 have long drawn affluent guests. In just the past year, since September 2025, four exciting, high-profile restaurant concepts have opened at this jewel of a property:
