VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Xali Gold Corp. (TSXV:XGC) (“Xali Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that a public information workshop was successfully completed on October 7, 2026, as part of the Ficha Técnica Ambiental (“FTA”) approval process for the planned drilling program at its Pico Machay Gold Project (“Pico Machay” or the “Project”) in Peru. Completion of the workshop marks an important step toward submission of the Company’s FTA application.

The workshop was organized by Peru’s Ministry of Energy and Mines (“MINEM”), in coordination with the executives of the department of Energy and Mines of the Regional Government of Huancavelica and the Company. Approximately 60 residents attended from the various annexes of the Comunidad Campesina de Salcca Santa Ana (“Santa Ana community”) within the Project’s area of influence, including the presidents of five of its six annexes, the community president and two members of the community’s governing board, and the president of the alpaca breeders’ association.

Participants had the opportunity to hear directly from and ask questions of government representatives, Geades Consultores, the Company’s Peru-based environmental consultant, and Xali Gold’s team. Discussions covered the proposed drilling program, environmental and social aspects of exploration, applicable laws and measures to protect community interests, as well as the Company’s broader exploration and potential development plans.

“Completion of this workshop is an important step in advancing our exploration permit application and continuing an open dialogue with the Santa Ana community,” said Joanne Freeze, President and CEO of Xali Gold. “The participation and questions raised demonstrate the community’s interest in understanding the proposed work, how the environment will be protected and the laws that govern our activities. We thank all community members who attended, MINEM, the Regional Government of Huancavelica, Geades Consultores and our team for their contributions.”

FTA Process and Next Steps

As reported in Xali Gold’s September 17, 2026 news release, the Company completed two technical meetings with Peru’s MINEM to obtain guidance on updated FTA requirements. Xali Gold also engaged Embellie Advisory LLC to assess potential effects of the proposed drilling on the collective rights of indigenous or native community members and assist with the related application requirements.

With the workshop now completed, the Company is working to finalize its FTA application, with submission targeted for next week. Based on guidance received, the review and approval process is anticipated to take approximately 10 days following submission, although actual timing remains subject to the regulatory process.

The planned 3,000-metre diamond drill program includes approximately 2,000 metres of drilling to twin selected historical reverse-circulation holes. This work is intended to support an updated mineral resource estimate and subsequent Preliminary Economic Assessment.

Ongoing Community Engagement

The workshop builds on the community authorization announced in Xali Gold’s July 9, 2026 news release. At an extraordinary assembly held on June 28, 2026, the Santa Ana community authorized the Company to undertake drilling, exploration and environmental studies at Pico Machay.

Xali Gold remains committed to ongoing engagement with the community as the Project advances, with an emphasis on transparent communication, respect for local priorities and opportunities for community participation.

About Pico Machay

Located within the Southern Peru Epithermal Gold-Silver Belt, Pico Machay sits in a historically productive mining district in the Western Cordillera of the Andes (click here for location map). The Project benefits from existing infrastructure and a mining-friendly community eager to partner on sustainable development.

Xali Gold remains confident in the significant upside potential at Pico Machay, which hosts a historical resource and several untested exploration targets on the Project. Various historical engineering studies at Pico Machay were completed through 2009 and evaluated the potential for a low-cost, low strip-ratio, open-pit heap-leach operation. Given that those studies were based on a long-term gold price of $700/oz and several exploration targets remain untested, Xali Gold considers the upside potential to be very strong.

About Xali Gold

Xali Gold is a gold and silver exploration company focused on advancing opportunities in the Americas. The Company is focused on the exploration and development of Pico Machay, an advanced exploration-stage gold project in Peru with a near-term production goal. 

The Company’s approach to community engagement and responsible development is guided by strong governance principles and Board oversight that support long-term stakeholder relationships.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cullinan Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CGEM; “Cullinan”), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company accelerating potential first- or best-in-class, disease-modifying T cell engagers in autoimmune diseases and cancer, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in its pivotal Phase 2 study of CLN-049, a novel, investigational FLT3 T cell engager, in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

“Patients with relapsed or refractory AML continue to face poor outcomes and limited treatment options, underscoring the urgent need for new treatment approaches that can benefit a broad range of patients,” said Jeffrey Jones, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer, Cullinan Therapeutics. “We believe CLN-049 has the potential to offer a novel immunotherapeutic approach for patients with AML. With this Phase 2 study now underway, we look forward to further evaluating the potential role of CLN-049 for this difficult-to-treat disease.”

The Phase 2 study is designed to evaluate CLN-049 in patients with relapsed/refractory AML who have received up to two lines of prior therapy. Following a successful End-of-Phase 1 meeting with the U.S. FDA, the potentially registrational study incorporates a brief dose-optimization phase evaluating two target dose levels of CLN-049, followed by seamless advancement to a single-arm expansion cohort at the recommended Phase 2 dose. The study also includes an exploratory cohort evaluating CLN-049 in patients with newly diagnosed TP53-mutated AML. The company expects to provide an update from the Phase 1 dose escalation study of CLN-049 in patients with relapsed/refractory AML in December.

In parallel, the company is initiating a Phase 1/2 study evaluating the combination of CLN-049, azacitidine, and venetoclax in patients with newly diagnosed AML.

About CLN-049

CLN-049 is a novel, investigational FLT3xCD3 T cell engager. CLN-049 is designed to target FLT3-expressing leukemia cells, offering a new immunotherapeutic approach for treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). CLN-049 binds to both mutated and non-mutated FLT3, allowing targeted action regardless of FLT3 mutational status, making the investigational treatment widely applicable to a broad population.

CLN-049 is being studied in a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, multiple ascending dose study evaluating safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of intravenously (IV) administered CLN-049 in patients with relapsed/refractory AML or MDS (NCT05143996).

CLN-049 is also being studied in a Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and PD of IV-administered CLN-049 in combination with azacitidine and venetoclax in patients with newly diagnosed AML (NCT07722767).

CLN-049 has received Orphan Drug designation and Fast Track designation from the U.S. FDA for the treatment of relapsed/refractory AML.

About Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow, and the most common form of acute leukemia in adults.1 It is characterized by the rapid growth of abnormal white blood cells that crowd out healthy cells, leading to infections, fatigue, and bleeding.2 Each year in the U.S., approximately 23,000 people are diagnosed with AML, and about half as many lives are lost to the disease.3 Globally, AML affects an estimated 145,000 people annually, with approximately 130,000 deaths.4

Despite recent advances, outcomes for patients with AML remain poor, particularly for those with relapsed or refractory disease, where five-year survival is 10% or less.5 Patients with high-risk genetic features, such as complex karyotype or TP53 mutations, face especially limited options.6,7 Intensive treatments like chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation may be inaccessible for many older patients due to severe side effects.7 Currently, there are no approved immunotherapies for AML, underscoring the urgent need for novel therapeutic approaches that can improve outcomes for patients and their families facing this life-threatening disease.

SAGUENAY, Quebec, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Arianne Phosphate (the “Company” or “Arianne”) (TSX VENTURE: DAN; OTCQB: DRRSF; FRANKFURT: JE9N), a development-stage phosphate mining company, advancing the Lac à Paul project in Quebec’s Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, is pleased to announce the receipt of positive test results from a Western-based battery materials maker, advancing its goal of a fully integrated North American battery supply chain. The purified phosphoric acid (“PPA”) tested was produced through Arianne’s previously announced joint venture with Travertine Technologies Inc. (“Travertine”), combining Arianne’s high-purity, low-contaminant phosphate concentrate with Travertine’s proprietary process for producing PPA while allowing for the recapture of the sulphuric acid used in the process.

As previously announced (see Press Release dated July 9, 2026), Arianne shipped PPA samples to potential customers covering three separate industries: a CAM producer for ultimate use in LFP (lithium-iron-phosphate) batteries, a diversified industrial chemicals producer that uses PPA for water treatment and pulp & paper applications and a specialized liquid fertilizer producer. The samples were produced at pilot scale by the Arianne-Travertine partnership. The CAM producer referenced in that release has now completed preliminary testing and confirmed that the PPA meets the indicative specifications required for its LFP CAM production.

“Having our PPA meet the specifications of a CAM producer is a significant milestone for Arianne and our Travertine JV project,” said Brian Ostroff, Head of Strategic & Business Initiatives at Arianne Phosphate. “The LFP battery has some of the most demanding purity requirements of any application for phosphoric acid and these results validate what we have been saying for some time: our high-purity, low-contaminant phosphate concentrate allows for the production of a PPA suited for the most demanding applications. With LFP demand growing rapidly and the West looking to reduce its reliance on a single source of supply, being able to offer a Western-sourced PPA is something we believe will be of considerable interest.”

Aside from its use in the LFP battery, PPA is a necessary ingredient for many applications required in everyday use. Food additives, pharmaceuticals, semiconductor production and water treatment are all reliant on access to this critical liquid and Western production currently does not meet industry’s requirement. Further complicating supply challenges are the current disruptions to the global supply of sulphur, a necessary component in the processing of many commodities, including phosphate concentrate into all downstream products.

Arianne Phosphate’s Lac à Paul project is situated in Quebec, Canada and hosts the world’s largest greenfield phosphate deposit. Being igneous, the ore body is geologically rare and allows for the easy transformation into a high-quality, premium-priced PPA. As the West’s only permitted greenfield phosphate mine, Arianne can address the growing demand for this critical material and do so from geopolitically secure jurisdiction. The Company’s JV project with Travertine will also greatly reduce (95%) the requirements of sulphuric acid and potentially significantly reduce OpEx costs associated with PPA production.

In April, Arianne announced that it had entered into an option agreement on behalf of the future Arianne/Travertine JV for a facility to be used as a demonstration plant for the production of PPA using this proprietary process (see Press Release dated April 21, 2026). The facility is based in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region of Quebec, Canada; easy trucking distance from Arianne’s future mine site. Advancing this project has the potential to form a Canadian supply chain for LFP battery materials, from phosphate mine to production of acid, and ultimately to the cathode. Like most battery technologies, China currently dominates LFP production and, as the West continues to adopt the LFP for electric vehicles, energy storage and defense applications, production from other geographies will be necessary.

About Arianne Phosphate:
Arianne Phosphate (“Arianne Phosphate Inc.”) (www.arianne-inc.com) is developing the Lac à Paul phosphate deposits located approximately 200 km north of the Saguenay/Lac St. Jean area of Quebec, Canada. These deposits will produce a high-quality igneous apatite concentrate grading 39% P2O5 with little or no contaminants (Feasibility Study released in 2013).

About Travertine: 
Travertine was founded in 2022 to solve one or the most pressing problems in the mining industry: producing vital elements without creating mountains of waste. Their proprietary electrochemical technology completely converts phosphate ore concentrate into valuable products – phosphoric acid, cementitious materials, and co-produced critical elements – closing the loop between the extraction and construction industries for cleaner chemical production. Their gypsum-free, solvent-free process will become the standard for next generation, cleaner purified phosphoric acid production.

Maximizes Customer Value With More Kilowatt Hours Per Year

OREM, Utah, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SunPower Inc. (“SunPower,” or Nasdaq: “SPWR”) a solar technology, services, and installation company, today announced a new Monolith platform product, the Monolith II next-generation premium high-wattage panel, designed as part of its Joint Development Agreement (JDA) with REC and exclusive to SunPower. Monolith II set the latest SunPower panel power record since its 333-watt record in 2009. Monolith II maximizes total kilowatt hours (KWh) per year, literally the actual “payback” of solar systems.

SunPower successfully commercialized Monolith, a 470-watt panel developed by the SunPower-REC JDA. The Monolith panel uses REC’s advanced N-Type Heterojunction (HJT) cell technology, which provides superior power output and annual energy production, exceptional aesthetics and a solid 25-year warrantee. Monolith II panels produce 522 watts from the first Monolith footprint and weight by encapsulating REC’s N-Type HJT wafer technology in a “bifacial” panel with glass on both the front and back sides to illuminate the cells from both sides.

Starbucks Bifacial Panels

Starbucks: SunPower used commercial size bifacial panels on 67 Starbuck’s stores to maximize the annual energy (kWh) and economic output from a given store footprint. The panels receive full sunlight on the top and reflected sunlight on the bottom

T.J. Rodgers, SunPower CEO, said, “Our partners at REC have done it again, enabling us to offer our new customers the market’s most powerful residential panel, as well as offering our 415,000 legacy customers an attractive system upgrade. Monolith II weighs less than 50 pounds, as mandated by OSHA for single-worker installation, yet produces 522 watts. To illustrate customer value, my backyard vineyard has three rows replaced with 56 SunPower 360-watt panels that produce 20,160 watts. With Monolith II, the system will produce 29,323 watts, or 46 kWh of extra energy per day, worth $3,345 per year in California.”

Brian Ghiglia, REC Americas VP of Sales, said, “We are excited to continue our R&D collaboration with SunPower which provides us with early engineering data so we can rapidly improve our solar technology.”

Surinder S. Bedi, SunPower’s Executive Vice President of Quality, Engineering and Customer Success, concluded, “With five years of personal experience building bifacial commercial systems, I cannot wait to get our first Monolith II installation done this month on the roof of a Cobalt Silicon Valley customer who will allow us to compare Monolith vs Monolith II side by side.”

Nutriband files new non-provisional patent application to strengthen intellectual property protection of its AVERSA™ transdermal abuse deterrent technology being developed for patches containing opioids and stimulants with a potential for abuse.

Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology consists of a proprietary aversive agent coating that employs taste aversion to deter oral abuse and reduce accidental exposure.

ORLANDO, Fla., Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nutriband Inc. (NASDAQ:NTRB) today announced that it has filed a non-provisional utility patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to further strengthen Nutriband’s intellectual property protection for its AVERSA™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology.

This new patent application covers improved aversive formulations and coating application methods to enhance the abuse deterrent properties of Nutriband’s AVERSA™ transdermal technology and make it even more difficult to defeat. If this new patent is subsequently granted, it could significantly extend the patent protection for products that utilize Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology as the statutory patent term of a US patent is 20 years from the non-provisional filing date. If granted, the worldwide (PCT) patent protection for AVERSA™-based products such as AVERSA™ FENTANYL could be extended to 2046.

The AVERSA™ abuse deterrent technology is protected by a broad international intellectual property portfolio with patents issued in 46 countries including the United States, Europe, Japan, Korea, Russia, China, Canada, Mexico, and Australia.

Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology can be utilized to incorporate aversive agents into transdermal patches to prevent the abuse, diversion, misuse, and accidental exposure of drugs with abuse potential including opioids and stimulants. The AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology has the potential to improve the safety profile of transdermal drugs susceptible to abuse, such as opioids, while making sure that these drugs remain accessible to those patients who really need them.

NEW YORK and LONDON and LEAMINGTON, Ontario, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Tilray Brands, Inc. (“Tilray”, “our”, “we” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TLRY; TSX: TLRY), a global lifestyle and consumer packaged goods company with leading positions across cannabis, beverage, hospitality and wellness, today reported financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2026. All financial information in this press release is reported in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

Irwin D. Simon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Tilray Brands, stated: “Tilray’s record first-quarter revenue and gross profit demonstrate the power of the diversified platform we have built and the momentum we are creating across cannabis, beverage, hospitality, wellness and pharmaceutical distribution. We are no longer dependent on a single market or regulatory catalyst. We have multiple engines of growth, a scaled international footprint and the ability to convert scale into stronger margins, greater efficiency and sustainable, profitable growth.”

Mr. Simon continued, “Our global platform is translating into leadership positions across our core categories. In cannabis, Tilray is a leading cannabis producer, with more than 6 million square feet of cultivation capacity across Canada, Portugal and Germany, and a leading low-cost production base in the world’s largest legally regulated markets, supported by one of the largest EU-GMP certified footprints in the world. In beer, the world’s largest consumed alcoholic beverage category, we are the #4 craft brewer in the U.S. and #1 in the U.K., and we are very proud that Carlsberg has partnered with Tilray to begin producing and selling its iconic brands in the U.S. market starting January 1, 2027. Across beverage and wellness, we are accelerating innovation and staying closer to consumers. These leadership positions reflect the work we have done to integrate our businesses, sharpen operations and build a more focused, profitable company. Tilray is building a category-defining global platform for the next generation of wellness, healthcare and consumer products, with the brands, infrastructure and scale to lead as these markets evolve.”

The quarter’s performance reflects Tilray’s focus on building durable growth across multiple categories, strengthening profitability and maintaining a disciplined balance sheet while investing behind the long-term opportunities we believe will define the future of cannabis, beverage, wellness and healthcare.

Balance Sheet Update: Tilray’s balance sheet remains strong, supported by cash, restricted cash and marketable securities4 of $221.4 million at the end of the first quarter. This position gives the Company financial flexibility to invest behind strategic growth opportunities, support integration priorities and maintain disciplined capital allocation. Fiscal year to date, Tilray also reduced total outstanding debt by $42 million.

Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance
For its fiscal year ending May 31, 2027, the Company reaffirms its expectation to achieve adjusted EBITDA3 of $68 million to $75 million, representing double-digit growth as compared to fiscal year 2026. Historically, due to the seasonality of our business, financial results are typically more weighted toward the second half of the fiscal year, with results strengthening significantly in the fourth quarter.

Management’s guidance for adjusted EBITDA3 is provided on a non-GAAP basis and excludes stock-based compensation; change in fair value of contingent consideration; purchase price accounting step-up; impairments of intangible assets and goodwill; other than temporary change in fair value of convertible notes receivable; litigation costs; integration and restructuring costs; transaction-related costs; and other non-operating income (expenses) and non-recurring items that may be incurred during the Company’s fiscal year 2027, which the Company will continue to identify as it reports its future financial results.

The Company cannot reconcile its expected adjusted EBITDA3 to net income under “Fiscal Year 2027 Guidance” without unreasonable effort because certain items that impact net income and other reconciling metrics are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release constitute forward-looking information or forward-looking statements (together, “forward-looking statements”) under Canadian securities laws and 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, that are intended to be subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections and other applicable laws. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “forecast,” “future,” “should,” “could,” “enable,” “potential,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “expect,” “intend,” “position,” “may,” “project,” “will,” “would” and the negative of these terms or similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. Certain material factors, estimates, goals, projections or assumptions were used in drawing the conclusions contained in the forward-looking statements throughout this communication.

Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our intentions, beliefs, projections, outlook, analyses or current expectations concerning, among other things: the Company’s ability to become a leading lifestyle consumer packaged goods company; the Company’s ability to become a leading beverage alcohol Company; the Company’s ability to achieve long term profitability; the Company’s ability to achieve operational scale, market share, distribution, profitability and revenue growth in particular business lines and markets; the Company’s ability to successfully achieve revenue growth, margin and profitability improvements, production and supply chain efficiencies, synergies and cost savings; the Company’s ability to achieve fiscal year 2027 financial guidance, including expected Adjusted EBITDA3 of $68 to $75 million and synergy optimizations; the Company’s expected revenue growth, sales volume, profitability, synergies and accretion related to any of its acquisitions; expected opportunities in the U.S., including upon U.S. federal cannabis legalization or rescheduling and the Company’s ability to leverage its platform in connection therewith; the Company’s ability to successfully leverage artificial intelligence strategies; the Company’s anticipated investments and acquisitions, including in organic and strategic growth, partnership efforts, product offerings and other initiatives; and the Company’s ability to commercialize new and innovative products.

Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievement to be materially different from any forward-looking statements, and other risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or that the Company deems immaterial could also cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained herein. For a more detailed discussion of these risks and other factors, see the most recently filed annual information form of the Company and the Annual Report on Form 10-K (and other periodic reports filed with the SEC) of the Company made with the SEC and available on EDGAR. The forward-looking statements included in this communication are made as of the date of this communication and the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect new information, subsequent events or otherwise unless required by applicable securities laws.

Use of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables include non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA3, Adjusted cash operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) per share and or (“Adjusted EPS”), free cash flow, adjusted free cash flow, constant currency presentations of revenue, cash, restricted cash and marketable securities, and net (debt) cash. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide useful additional information to investors about current trends in the Company’s operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures, nor should adjusted net income (loss) per share be used as a measure of liquidity. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. They should be read only in connection with the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows presented in accordance with GAAP.

Certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this press release are not reconciled to the comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. The Company is not able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the Company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include litigation and related expenses, transaction costs, impairments of intangible assets and goodwill, foreign exchange movements and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company’s GAAP financial results.

The Company believes presenting net sales at constant currency provides useful information to investors because it provides transparency to underlying performance in the Company’s consolidated net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on period-to-period comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets. To present this information for historical periods, current period net sales for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average monthly exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than at the actual average monthly exchange rate in effect during the current period of the current fiscal year. As a result, the foreign currency impact is equal to the current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. A reconciliation of prior year revenue to constant currency revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA3 is calculated as net income (loss) before income tax expense (recovery), net; interest expense, net; non-operating income (expense), net; amortization; stock-based compensation; change in fair value of contingent consideration; project 420 optimization costs; litigation costs; restructuring costs, and transaction costs, net. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA3 to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Adjusted cash operating income (loss) is calculated as operating loss, less; amortization; stock-based compensation; and change in fair value of contingent consideration. A reconciliation of adjusted cash operating income (loss) to operating loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been included below in this press release. Adjusted cash operating income (loss) is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative for GAAP operating income or as a measure of liquidity.

Adjusted net income (loss) is calculated as net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., less; non-operating income (expense), net; amortization; deferred income tax expense (benefits), net; stock-based compensation; Accretion of convertible debt discount; change in fair value of contingent consideration; project 420 optimization costs; litigation costs; restructuring costs and transaction costs, net. A reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) to net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been included below in this press release.

Adjusted net income (loss) per share (and or adjusted EPS) is calculated as adjusted net income (loss) divided by weighted average number of common shares outstanding. A reconciliation of Adjusted net income (loss) per share to net loss attributable to stockholders of Tilray Brands, Inc., the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been included below in this press release. Adjusted net income (loss) per share is not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative for GAAP net income (loss) per share or as a measure of liquidity.

Free cash flow is comprised of two GAAP measures which are net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less investments in capital and intangible assets, net. A reconciliation of net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities to free cash flow, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release. Adjusted free cash flow is comprised of two GAAP measures which are net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities less investments in capital and intangible assets, net, and the exclusion of growth CAPEX from investments in capital and intangible assets, net, which excludes the amount of capital expenditures that are considered to be associated with growth of future operations rather than to maintain the existing operations of the Company, and excludes cash paid for litigation settlements. A reconciliation of net cash flow provided by (used in) operating activities to adjusted free cash flow, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, has been provided in the financial statement tables included above in this press release.

Cash, restricted cash and marketable securities are comprised of three GAAP measures, cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash added to marketable securities. The Company’s management believes that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its short-term liquidity position by combining these three GAAP metrics.

Net (debt) cash is comprised of GAAP measures and reduces bank indebtedness, current and non-current portions of long-term debt, the principal balance of convertible debt by cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company believes this metric provides useful information to management, analysts, and investors regarding its liquidity and the Company’s ability to repay all of its debt.

The new generation of Pulsar Max introduces ISO 15118-ready hardware designed to support evolving European AFIR charging requirements, alongside built-in RFID and Ethernet connectivity

BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wallbox (NYSE: WBX), a global leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging and energy management solutions, today announced the European launch of the new generation of Pulsar Max, its compact AC charging solution for homes and shared residential environments.

Building on the success of the Pulsar platform, with more than 600,000 Wallbox chargers sold worldwide, the new Pulsar Max introduces enhanced connectivity, access control and future-ready hardware designed to make EV charging easier to install, connect and manage across a broader range of residential applications.

The new Pulsar Max incorporates ISO 15118-ready hardware, including an integrated Power Line Communication (PLC) hardware layer that provides the foundation for future vehicle-to-charger communication and smart charging capabilities. This architecture is designed to support AFIR-related use cases where applicable and help customers and installers prepare for evolving European charging requirements.

The new model also introduces built-in RFID authentication and Ethernet connectivity, complementing the existing Bluetooth and Wi-Fi options. Ethernet enables installers to connect multiple chargers through the same local network, while RFID authentication provides a simple way to identify and manage different users. Together, these capabilities make Pulsar Max particularly suited to shared residential environments such as condominiums and multi-tenant buildings.

“As electric mobility becomes mainstream, residential charging needs to evolve beyond simply delivering power to a vehicle,” said Eduard Castañeda, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Wallbox. “With the new Pulsar Max, we are combining the simplicity and compact design that have defined the Pulsar family with greater connectivity, user identification and hardware designed for the next generation of EV charging.”

Pulsar Max is available in three configurations: tethered versions offering 7.4 kW or 22 kW of charging power, and a 22 kW socket version. All variants can be managed through the Wallbox App and support Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity, giving installers and drivers greater flexibility across different installation environments.

The new generation also retains Wallbox’s intelligent energy management capabilities, including the ability to charge using surplus solar energy. Pulsar Max is backed by a five-year product warranty, subject to the terms and conditions of sale, reinforcing Wallbox’s focus on reliability and long-term residential charging.

The new Pulsar Max is expected to be available across European markets from November 2026, with rollout beginning progressively across the region.
