Southlake, TX, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HeartSciences Inc. (Nasdaq: HSCS; HSCSW) (“HeartSciences” or the “Company”), a healthcare information technology (“HIT”) company focused on advancing electrocardiography (“ECG” or “EKG”) through the integration of artificial intelligence (“AI”), today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted 510(k) clearance (K260005) for its MyoVista® wavECGTM device as a 12-lead resting electrocardiograph. The clearance covers the acquisition and interpretation of ECG signals from adult and pediatric patients in hospitals and healthcare facilities, with interpretive statements provided to clinicians on an advisory basis. The clearance does not include an AI-ECG algorithm.

As previously reported, HeartSciences separated the FDA submissions for the MyoVista wavECG device and its impaired cardiac relaxation AI-ECG algorithm following updated guidance published by the American Society of Echocardiography regarding the assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. The Company does not intend to commercialize the device without a cleared AI-ECG algorithm and has made no commitment to, and has no timeline for, commercialization of the device. The clearance does, however, broaden the potential options available to the Company for the device and its related intellectual property, which the Company intends to evaluate.

Andrew Simpson, CEO of HeartSciences, said, “This clearance is the result of several years of work by our clinical, regulatory and engineering teams, and I want to thank them for the quality and persistence of that effort. Our commercial focus remains on MyoVista Insights, but clearance makes the device and the intellectual property behind it a more readily realizable asset, and we will take the time to consider the best route to realizing that value.”

Proposed Transaction with Fortitude

The proposed business combination with Fortitude Mining Holdings, Inc. (“Fortitude”), announced in June 2026 (the “Proposed Transaction”), continues to progress. The Company expects to close the Proposed Transaction in Q4 calendar 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by HeartSciences’ shareholders.

Trailing 14-day average deposits reach approximately $119.3 million as of quarter end, up 7.4% year-over-year and approximately 25% above the May 2025 low, as deposit growth accelerates for the second consecutive quarter

Recent Federal Reserve rate increase expected to add approximately $150,000 investment income annually

DENVER, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SHF Holdings, Inc., d/b/a Safe Harbor (the “Company” or “Safe Harbor”) (NASDAQ: SHFS), a leading fintech platform serving the banking, lending and financial services needs of the regulated cannabis and hemp industries, today announced certain preliminary deposit information for the third quarter ended September 30, 2026, ahead of its third quarter 2026 earnings release.

Safe Harbor’s trailing 14-day average deposit balance was approximately $119.3 million as of September 30, 2026, compared with approximately $111.1 million as of September 30, 2025, up 7.4% and approximately 25% above the trailing 14-day average low of approximately $95.3 million recorded in May 2025. The quarter-end trailing 14-day balance is the Company’s highest since April 2024.

The trailing 14-day average client deposits increased approximately 4.1% from $104.6 million as of March 31, 2026, to approximately $108.9 million as of June 30, 2026, and increased approximately 9.6% sequentially to approximately $119.3 million as of September 30, 2026. The sequential increase in the third quarter was more than double the increase recorded in the second quarter.

Safe Harbor also expects revenue to benefit from the higher interest rate environment. Based on client deposit and loan balances as of September 30, 2026, and assuming those balances and the Company’s current arrangements with its partner financial institutions remain unchanged, the Company estimates that the Federal Reserve’s 25-basis-point increase in the federal funds target rate on September 16, 2026 will contribute approximately $150,000 in incremental annualized investment income. Actual results will depend on future balances, partner institution arrangements and any subsequent changes in interest rates, including rate decreases.

“The continued growth in deposits reflects the strength of the strategy we have put in place,” said Terry Mendez, CEO of Safe Harbor. “As we broaden our platform across banking, lending, business solutions and institutional infrastructure, we are deepening client relationships and expanding the opportunity to capture more of their financial activity. We believe the continued momentum in deposits demonstrates the value of building a broader financial platform around the needs of the cannabis clients we service on behalf of financial institutions.”

Key Performance Indicator: Trailing 14-Day Average Client Deposits

The trailing 14-day average client deposit balance is the average of the aggregate end-of-day balances of deposit accounts of Safe Harbor’s clients held at its partner financial institutions for the 14 consecutive calendar days ending on the measurement date. Management uses this metric, rather than a single-day balance, because it smooths fluctuations caused by clients’ two-week payroll cycles and therefore better reflects underlying deposit levels. These deposits are held by and are liabilities of Safe Harbor’s partner financial institutions; they are not deposits of Safe Harbor and are not reflected on Safe Harbor’s consolidated balance sheet. Safe Harbor earns investment income on a portion of these balances under its arrangements with its partner financial institutions, and changes in deposit balances do not necessarily correspond to proportional changes in Safe Harbor’s revenue. The metric has been calculated on a consistent basis for all periods presented and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Preliminary Results

The preliminary deposit information in this press release is based on information available to management as of the date of this release, has not been audited or reviewed by Safe Harbor’s independent registered public accounting firm, and remains subject to completion of the Company’s normal quarter-end closing and review procedures. Final information may differ materially. This information is not a comprehensive statement of Safe Harbor’s financial results for the quarter, and investors should not draw conclusions regarding revenue, net income or other results from it. Safe Harbor plans to report full third quarter 2026 financial results at a later date to be announced.

  • New contracts through wholly owned subsidiary expand the deployment of Fire 4Cast and Disaster AI Platform across mixed-use and commercial development projects
  • Broadens the Company’s Physical AI technology platform base while pursuing additional commercial deployment opportunities across South Korea, North America and other international markets

SEONGNAM, South Korea, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Roze AI Inc. (Nasdaq: RZAI, “Roze AI” or the “Company”), a Physical AI technology company focused on disaster prevention and safety management, today announced that its wholly owned Korean operating subsidiary, Roze AI Korea Co., Ltd., has entered into new contracts valued at KRW 16,400,600,000 (approximately US$12.2 million), excluding value-added tax (VAT) to deploy the Company’s AI-powered fire safety and disaster prevention technologies across mixed-use and commercial development projects in South Korea. The new contracts further expand Roze AI’s customer base and commercial deployment footprint in South Korea, broadening the Company’s project portfolio across commercial, residential and facility environments.

The contracts cover three separate development sites in South Korea and include digital twin AI platforms, fire protection equipment and related installation works:
1. Seocho ALT1 – Hajo (㈜하조): a mixed-use development site at 1310-5 Seocho-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul. Contract value: KRW 6,444,800,000, excluding VAT.

2. Seocho ALT2 – Hajo (㈜하조): a separate mixed-use development site at the same street address. Contract value: KRW 7,837,600,000, excluding VAT.

3. Nonhyeon ALT1 – IJ (주식회사 아이제이): the new Soraepogu Fish Market development at 111-58 Nonhyeon-dong, Namdong-gu, Incheon. Contract value: KRW 2,118,200,000, excluding VAT.

Based on the Company’s current project schedules, construction at all three sites is expected to commence in the first half of 2027. The contract amounts are based on preliminary designs and may be revised following detailed design changes. Delivery and installation schedules remain subject to construction progress and mutual agreement under the contracts, which also allow project changes, postponement or cancellation. The stated contract values are not revenue guidance.

Including VAT, the aggregate contract amount is KRW 18,040,660,000 (approximately US$13.4 million). The contracts are denominated in Korean won. U.S. dollar equivalents are provided for reference only, using a cross-rate of approximately KRW 1,342.18 per US$1 derived from the Bank of Canada’s daily exchange rates for October 5, 2026.

Young Jin Cho, Chief Executive Officer of Roze AI, said, “These contracts are a meaningful step in scaling our commercial business and reflect growing demand from developers for preventive fire safety in large residential and mixed-use projects. South Korea is an important market where Roze AI has applied its technologies across a range of real-world environments and gained experience in commercial deployment. Our goal is to use AI and Physical AI technologies to advance disaster management from a focus on post-incident response toward earlier risk identification and preventive action.”

Roze AI develops AI-powered disaster prevention technologies designed to identify potential fire and disaster risks at an early stage and support preventive action before incidents occur. The Company continues to enhance these technologies through ongoing research and development.

Mr. Cho added, “We intend to expand our Physical AI technologies across a broader range of real-world environments, including buildings and infrastructure. We will continue to pursue customers, strategic partners and additional commercial deployment opportunities in North America and other global markets while continuing to advance our core technology platform.”

Based on this information, the platform is designed to help building and facility operators identify potential risk signals at an early stage and support timely preventive action.

Expanding Commercial Deployment and International Opportunities
Building on its technology deployment experience and commercial project activity in South Korea, Roze AI plans to continue expanding its business base domestically while pursuing customers, strategic partnerships and commercial deployment opportunities in North America and other international markets, across a broader range of environments including buildings, infrastructure, smart cities and high-risk facilities.
