On 06.10.2026 the Lithuanian Competition Authority refused to accept the application of the company’s parent company MM Grupp OÜ (MMG) to resolve the acquisition issue of the cinema located in the Vilnius Akropolis center by granting a merger clearance.

This is a side episode in the main dispute between MMG and the Authority, which is pending in the Lithuanian court, concerning the acquisition of the Vilnius Akropolis cinema and the Kaunas cinema by MMG, and the reason for which is the surprising and retroactive illegal change of the established practice by the Authority. MMG sold both acquired cinemas to the company, from which the Vilnius cinema is currently operated by the company, and regarding the Kaunas cinema, the transaction between the company and MMG was reversed in order to mitigate the company’s risks.

On 28.10.2026, the Authority ruled that MMG acquired these 2 cinemas without a merger permit and must now apply for a merger permit retrospectively. MMG challenged the Authority’s decision in court, because the acquisition did not require a merger permit and in parallel submitted a merger application to the Authority regarding the Vilnius cinema in order to resolve the Vilnius cinema issue more quickly (the litigation will take years).

Now the Authority has refused a faster solution regarding the Vilnius cinema, and the issue regarding both cinemas remains for the court to decide.

Carlos Moreira, CEO of WISeSat.Space, SEALSQ and WISeQey noted, “This investment brings together two companies within the WISeQey group around a shared goal: making space infrastructure secure against both current and future cyber threats. For WISeSat.Space, it provides capital to advance our next generation of satellites and to build post-quantum security into our space, ground and user segments. For SEALSQ, it opens a path to deliver quantum and post-quantum services using WISeSat.Space’s satellite capacity. Together, secure semiconductors, cryptography and satellite connectivity have the potential to help set new standards for trust and security across the emerging space economy.”

Gwenael Rouy-Poirier, CFO of WISeSat.Space, added, “Capital is only valuable if it translates into execution. This $10 million investment strengthens our balance sheet as we move into the next phase of WISeSat.Space’s development. Our focus is disciplined capital allocation as we advance the satellite infrastructure, post-quantum security integration and industrial partnerships required to build a scalable business. We intend to deploy this capital carefully, prioritizing the investments that move us closer to delivering secure, revenue-generating space services and long-term value for our shareholders.”

The new satellite program is expected to contribute to WISeSat.Space’s broader vision of bringing trust and sovereignty to space transactions, enabling secure interactions among independently operated space and terrestrial systems while strengthening the protection of critical digital assets.

The PIPE Investment closed on October 1, 2026, concurrently with the closing of the Business Combination.  The purchase price per share, equal to the redemption price, was $10.79 per share.  The Subscription Agreement includes a price-protection mechanism that may result in the issuance of additional WISeSat Ordinary Shares to SEALSQ under certain conditions if the volume-weighted average price of WISeSat Ordinary Shares for the 10 consecutive trading days ending on the 60th calendar day after Closing is below the purchase price, subject to a maximum issuance of an additional 1,073,216 shares. SEALSQ is also subject to customary lock-up restrictions under the Subscription Agreement.

Autonomous trucks announced in May are now running live, daily operations between EASE warehouses in Marysville, Ohio as part of the Ohio–Indiana Truck Automation Corridor Project.

MARYSVILLE, Ohio and STOCKHOLM, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Einride AB (Nasdaq: ENRD) (“Einride” or the “Company”) and EASE Logistics (“EASE”) today announced that the SAE Level 4 (L4) autonomous electric trucks are now live in daily freight operations between EASE warehouses in Marysville, Ohio. The milestone builds on the companies’ May 2026 announcement and marks a new phase for the Truck Automation Corridor Project, a joint effort of the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), DriveOhio, and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) to prepare Ohio and Indiana’s interstates for automated freight.

Two of Einride’s cab-less, driverless electric trucks are now running scheduled routes on EASE property and local public roads, carrying freight between EASE facilities. The vehicles operate without anyone in the cab; a remote operator monitors each truck off-site and can step in if needed. Starting last month, the deployment has been generating operational data on safety, reliability, and efficiency that will inform how autonomous freight scales beyond this initial route.

“This deployment reflects the maturity of our purpose-built autonomous stack, combining driverless operation with remote oversight to run safely in real-world operations,” said Henrik Green, CTO at Einride. “Daily operations in Marysville give us the proof points we need to keep expanding autonomous freight across the corridor and beyond.”

This is EASE ‘ third autonomous trucking deployment with DriveOhio, continuing the company’s position as one of the few U.S. logistics providers running multiple autonomous freight platforms in live, day-to-day operations.

“EASE believes in leading through action and putting innovation to work in real-world operations,” said Peter Coratola, Jr., President and CEO of EASE Logistics. “This deployment builds on that commitment while helping advance the adoption of autonomous freight across the transportation industry.”

The Einride–EASE deployment is part of the Truck Automation Corridor Project, an $8.8 million, multi-year initiative launched in 2021 by ODOT, DriveOhio, and INDOT. The project centers on major state routes in Ohio and Indiana, where varying levels of truck automation are being deployed and studied. The project’s stated goals are to improve safety, reduce fuel consumption and emissions, increase efficiency, and build fleets’ comfort and experience with automation.

Einride and EASE plan to use the operational data from daily service, including miles driven, loads moved, and uptime, to guide the next phase of the deployment and to inform broader conversations with ODOT, INDOT, and prospective logistics partners about scaling autonomous freight across the region.

Planned at the output of five nuclear reactors, with a China-free battery supply chain designed to feed EM&T’s own critical materials recovery

MIAMI, FL, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp. (“EM&T” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: EMAT) is moving to generate and control its own power at industrial scale. The Company today announced a Strategic Partnership Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with UK-based INERGX Energy Optimisation Ltd. (“INERGX”) to engineer, supply, integrate and service the energy storage and power optimization systems for EM&T’s planned critical materials and battery black mass recovery facility in the United States (the “Facility”) — a site planned at approximately 1 GW of on-site capacity within two years and up to approximately 5 GW at full build-out, powered by on-site LNG generation.

To put that in perspective: a typical U.S. nuclear reactor produces about 1 GW, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. EM&T’s First Phase alone is planned at the output of a full nuclear reactor. At full build-out, the Facility is planned at the equivalent of five. Run at full output, that capacity is equivalent to the annual electricity use of approximately 4 million American homes — and the First Phase alone to approximately 800,000 — based on U.S. Energy Information Administration data on average annual residential use.

By the Numbers

• ~1 GW — on-site capacity planned for the Facility’s First Phase, within two years
• Up to ~5 GW — planned at full build-out — the equivalent of five typical U.S. nuclear reactors (U.S. Department of Energy)
• ~4 million — American homes’ worth of annual electricity at the Facility’s full planned output, based on average U.S. residential use (U.S. Energy Information Administration)
• ~85% — share of global battery cell manufacturing capacity located in China in 2024 (International Energy Agency) — the dependency EM&T’s non-China supply mandate is built to avoid
• 10 years — anticipated initial term of INERGX’s long-term service agreement
• 8 weeks — to deliver the First Block Study after receipt of EM&T’s site inputs, with definitive agreements for the first block targeted within 12 weeks of acceptance
• $400M–$460M — EM&T’s previously announced fiscal 2027 revenue guidance, driven by the expansion of its Pohang, Republic of Korea magnet capacity to approximately 10,000 metric tons

Why It Matters

• Power on EM&T’s terms. With on-site generation paired with engineered storage, the Facility is designed to run on power EM&T controls — built for the power quality and ride-through performance that continuous critical materials processing demands.
• China out of the battery stack. China hosted about 85% of global battery cell manufacturing capacity in 2024, according to the International Energy Agency. Under the LOI, INERGX intends to source cells, packs and battery management systems through qualified European or other approved non-China partners, with full country-of-origin documentation and no change in source without EM&T’s written approval.
• A closed battery loop. The parties will evaluate routing end-of-life packs — from EM&T’s own systems and, where agreed, from INERGX’s wider installed base — back to EM&T for critical materials recovery, and INERGX will consider cells made with EM&T-recovered materials. EM&T’s power infrastructure is designed to become a future source of its own feedstock.

First Block Study: Engineering the Foundation

INERGX will carry out a design study for the first generation and storage block of the Facility (the “First Block Study”). The study will model on-site generation together with energy storage against EM&T’s site load profile and generation specification, and will define the recommended storage capacity, power rating, configuration, power quality and ride-through performance, interface with the generation and process load, and indicative capital and operating costs — together with a scalable design for the full First Phase. The design will be validated through INERGX’s testing and certification partner in Italy, which is accredited to European and U.S. standards.

The LOI sets an accelerated timetable: EM&T will provide its site inputs within two weeks of signing, INERGX will deliver the First Block Study within eight weeks of receipt, and the parties intend to work toward definitive agreements for the first block within twelve weeks of the study’s delivery and acceptance, so that the first block can be ordered in step with EM&T’s generation and site program.

Partnership Scope

• Full-scope delivery partner: design, supply, project management, integration and commissioning for the first block, with the parties intending to extend the partnership through the balance of the First Phase and the Facility’s expansion to full capacity.
• Ten-year service horizon: remote monitoring, maintenance, repair, service and end-of-life repowering of installed systems under a long-term service agreement with an anticipated initial term of ten years.
• EM&T owns its data: all Facility-specific operating, process and performance data remains EM&T’s property, with continuous access and export rights.
• Flexible commercial models: EM&T will select between outright ownership with a service agreement or an energy-services structure under which a financing vehicle arranged by INERGX owns the systems and EM&T pays for capacity and services.
• Preferred partner for future facilities: upon successful completion of the First Block Study, INERGX is positioned as EM&T’s preferred energy storage and power optimization partner for further EM&T-developed facilities.

“Every serious industrial build in America is now a power story — and EM&T intends to own its own,” said David Wilcox, Executive Chairman of Evolution Metals & Technologies. “We are planning a facility that will draw as much power as five nuclear reactors — the equivalent of approximately 4 million American homes — and we are making sure every battery in that system comes from outside China and can ultimately come back to us as feedstock. That is not an energy contract. That is EM&T building a closed-loop, American-controlled critical materials platform from the power plant up.”

“EM&T is building at a scale where power quality is not a utility line item — it is the process,” said Dominic White, Director of INERGX Energy Optimisation Ltd. “Our team and our accredited engineering and testing partners are ready to move quickly on the First Block Study and to deliver a design that scales cleanly from the first block to full build-out.”

The LOI sets out the principal terms on which EM&T and INERGX intend to negotiate a statement of work for the First Block Study and definitive agreements for the partnership.

The partnership comes as EM&T executes on its previously announced fiscal 2027 revenue guidance of $400 million to $460 million, which reflects the expected first full-year contribution from the expansion of its rare earth magnet production capacity in Pohang, Republic of Korea, to approximately 10,000 metric tons annually, including approximately 6,000 metric tons of high-performance sintered NdFeB magnets, as the January 1, 2027 DFARS mine-to-magnet restriction takes effect. The Facility and the INERGX partnership extend EM&T’s platform into U.S.-based critical materials and battery black mass recovery.
