The innovative fleet and trucking venture will launch in Texas with a nationwide rollout backed by SouthernPlex Group and fleet solutions company ProFleetX.

DALLAS and FORT WORTH, Texas, Nov. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Semi Repair Shop, Inc. has announced its official plans for launch, introducing a dynamic onsite trucking and fleet maintenance platform. Developed in partnership between SouthernPlex and ProFleetX, the company aims to streamline the way commercial fleets and truckers manage maintenance, repairs, and roadside assistance.

The company’s new digital platform, SemiRepairShop.com, will connect fleet operators and truck drivers to certified mechanics in real time, allowing users to book repairs, monitor progress, and manage billing all in one place. Currently market testing in Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston, Semi Repair Shop plans to expand nationwide in late 2026, targeting an industry where downtime costs companies billions of dollars annually.

“The trucking industry keeps America moving, but maintenance has always been a pain point,” said Preston Howell, Founding Partner and CEO of SouthernPlex Group, Inc. “Semi Repair Shop is built to eliminate that friction. We’re combining mobile service capability with real-time technology to give fleets exactly what they need: fast, transparent repairs that keep their trucks on the road.”

“For years, fleets have had to choose between expensive downtime and inconsistent service quality,” added Joaquin Tapia, CoFounder of ProFleetX. “Our partnership with SouthernPlex changes that. Semi Repair Shop makes professional-grade maintenance available with skilled technicians — from fleet yards to highways — all backed by digital accountability.”

A Smarter Way to Keep Fleets Rolling

Unlike traditional repair shops that require trucks to come to them, Semi Repair Shop sends certified mobile technicians directly to the customers. The company’s proprietary model gives truck owners a complete view of each repair while being valuable to both smaller trucking outfits and larger managed fleet operators.

Strategic Partnership Between SouthernPlex and ProFleetX

The formation of Semi Repair Shop, Inc. represents a strategic collaboration between two companies with complementary strengths. SouthernPlex Group, Inc., a Dallas-based venture capital, media, and technology company, offers brand strategy, digital platform development, and scaling solutions while ProFleetX, a recognized innovator in fleet maintenance solutions, provides the operational backbone and vendor network needed to deliver high-quality, on-demand service nationwide.

“Our team is very dedicated to turning this forward thinking onsite service to the transportation industry,” said Waleed Shebreia, Founding Partner of SouthernPlex. “Modeling real time data, customer trends, and ongoing technology advancements will be essential to the innovation and scale of the operation as we expand into new markets.”

With the ongoing driver shortage and record freight demand, the trucking industry has been under increasing pressure to modernize its maintenance systems. Semi Repair Shop aims to fill that gap — offering on-demand, tech-driven fleet repair that scales from local owner-operators to national logistics providers.

“This is more than a new company — it’s an evolution of how maintenance gets done in the logistics world,” said Martin Tapia, Vice President of ProFleetX. “We’re not just responding to market demand; we’re shaping the future of fleet service.”

HONG KONG, Nov. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On 19 November, the 7th “ESG Leading Enterprises 2025” ceremony, co-organized by Bloomberg Businessweek/Chinese Edition and Deloitte, a globally renowned accounting firm, was successfully held in Hong Kong. The event was honored to feature a keynote speech and award presentation by Mr. Joseph H.L. Chan, JP, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. Fosun International was honored as an “ESG Leading Enterprise”, in recognition of its outstanding achievements and strong market position across ESG strategy, corporate governance, social responsibility, environmental protection, information disclosure, and stakeholder engagement.

This year, 12 companies were honored as “ESG Leading Enterprises” in Category I – market capitalization over HKD12 billion, all of which are major Hong Kong listed companies, including Henderson Land, Sun Hung Kai Properties, Towngas, Hutchmed, China Telecom, China Unicom, and Bank of China (Hong Kong).

“Creating IMPACT”, achieving notable recognition in ESG performance

Looking back on the past, Fosun has always paid attention to the reform and development of the global policies in the field of sustainable development. It has established a robust ESG governance management system, embedding sustainability principles into its operations over the years. It has actively responded to national and global strategies in relation to sustainable development, ensured information security, promoted technology innovation, implemented “dual carbon” goals, protected the rights and interests of employees to promote sustainable management and value creation.

Fosun’s sustainable development strategy focuses on six key directions under “Create IMPACT”, which stands for I: Innovation-driven, M: Mindful Operation, P: People and Partner Oriented, A: Advanced Governance, C: Climate and Planet Positive and T: Transparency. It carries forward Fosun’s original aspiration since its establishment and underpins its long-term commitment to ESG practices.

In recent years, Fosun has demonstrated outstanding performance in various aspects of ESG. As of now, Fosun International has maintained an MSCI ESG rating of AA. In 2025, it has been once again included in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025 and has been selected as the top 1% in S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook 2025 (China Edition). It has received an HSI sustainability rating of AA- and has been consecutively included in the Hang Seng Corporate Sustainability Benchmark Index. Fosun has also retained a leading FTSE Russell ESG score and has continued to be selected as a constituent stock of the FTSE4Good Index Series.

Driven by innovation, committed to social contribution

Fosun adheres to an innovation-driven strategy, and the anticancer drugs developed by its Health segment have widely benefited cancer patients. To date, Fosun’s innovative biopharmaceutical products have reached nearly 60 countries and regions, benefiting more than 850,000 patients worldwide. Among them, HANSIZHUANG, an innovative anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody independently developed by Fosun, is the world’s first anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody approved for the first-line treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). It has been approved for marketing in nearly 40 countries and regions, including China, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and India.

Since the beginning of this year, Fosun has achieved multiple breakthroughs in the field of innovative drugs. HLX43, a PD-L1-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) is undergoing clinical studies for solid tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer and thymic carcinoma in countries including China, the United States, and Australia. Currently, no PD-L1 ADC has been approved globally, positioning HLX43 as a potential highly effective and safe broad-spectrum anticancer drug. Additionally, in the field of innovative small molecule drugs, FUMAINING, a targeted drug independently developed by Fosun, has been approved for two rare disease indications, filling the treatment gap in the field of rare tumors.

Fosun for good, giving back to society

In order to better promote the fulfillment and implementation of corporate social responsibility, Fosun Foundation was established in 2012. It has been making continuous efforts in global emergency relief, rural revitalization, health, education, culture and art, and youth development to create social value. Of which, since its launch at the end of 2017, Fosun Foundation’s Rural Doctors Program has covered 78 counties in 16 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions, supported 25,000 rural doctors, and benefited 3 million rural families.

In support of youth entrepreneurship and development, Fosun, together with Portuguese insurance group Fidelidade and Portugal’s healthcare group Luz Saúde, launched the “Protechting Open Innovation Program” in early 2016. Since its inception, Protechting has engaged young entrepreneurs from more than 50 countries and regions, facilitated the incubation of over 50 pilot projects, and supported the large‑scale development of six youth entrepreneurship initiatives. The latest edition, Protechting 8.0, themed “Innovation Without Borders”, is now open for global submissions in cutting‑edge fields such as insurtech, healthtech, and artificial intelligence. The program aims to provide an international platform for young innovators to showcase their ideas and access global resources.

Actively responding to climate change and promoting low-carbon transformation

With climate change being one of the most severe long-term risks, Fosun recognizes the importance of global cooperation to tackle this challenge. Fosun remains committed to advancing China’s “dual carbon” goals by promoting carbon neutrality and energy conservation and emission reduction. In 2021, Fosun made a commitment to society – “strive to peak carbon emissions by 2028 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050”. Fosun has formulated strategies for climate change mitigation and adaptation to align with the 1.5°C temperature control target set in the Paris Agreement.

The Group also actively encourages its member companies to carry out climate actions. In 2024, the Bund Finance Center (BFC), the Group’s base in Shanghai and a landmark in Shanghai, was successfully included in Shanghai’s first batch of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality pilot demonstration projects, becoming the only large-scale commercial complex exceeding 200,000 square meters on the list.

Empowering a sustainable future through globalization and innovation

Rooted in China, Fosun has been developing globally and has long adhered to the two core growth drivers of “globalization” and “innovation”. As one of the few Chinese companies with established global operational and investment capabilities, Fosun has cultivated profound expertise in technology and innovation. With an increasingly sophisticated global business presence, Fosun operates responsibly in more than 40 countries and regions, actively contributing to public welfare and creating sustainable value worldwide.

Looking ahead, Fosun remains dedicated to advancing its social responsibility through innovation and responsible global operations. Guided by its “Create IMPACT” sustainable development strategy, Fosun will intensify its efforts to build a more responsible, inclusive and sustainable future.

SARASOTA, Fla., Nov. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A recently discovered copy of Superman #1 has made comic book history, shattering the record for any comic book by realizing $9.12 million at Heritage Auctions’ Comic Books Signature Auction on November 20, 2025. The comic’s journey from the California attic where it had been stored for decades to the auction block included a stop at Certified Guaranty Company® (CGC®), where it was authenticated and graded CGC 9.0, the sole-highest for the issue.

Now the most valuable comic book of all time, this book dethroned the Action Comics #1 with a Kansas City pedigree graded CGC 8.5 that realized $6 million in April 2024. That book had previously edged out the legendary Superman #1 with a Mile High pedigree graded CGC 8.0, which sold privately in 2022 for $5.3 million.

“It was riveting to see this Superman #1 — the highest-graded example ever certified by CGC — shatter the previous auction record for any comic book,” CGC President Matt Nelson said. “This result is a testament not only to the comic’s rarity and preservation but also to the expertise and trust that define CGC’s role in the collectibles market.”

One of the most iconic fictional characters of all-time, Superman launched the superhero genre when he first appeared in Action Comics #1 in 1938, ushering in a new type of protagonist that harkened back to ancient mythology. Superman inspired the creation of countless heroes that dominated the newsstands throughout World War II and beyond.

After Superman’s debut, sales of Action Comics surged with each issue. DC then decided to give Superman his own title, another first for the burgeoning comic industry. Superman #1 hit the stands in the summer of 1939 and instantly sold out its first print run of a half million copies, The company made subsequent runs of 250,000 and then 150,000. However, time took its toll, and only 209 copies are recorded today of this issue in the CGC Population Report, less than half of them in CGC’s coveted blue Universal label.

This monumental sale underscores the continued demand for rare, historically significant comics and highlights the role of CGC in preserving and authenticating these treasures for collectors.

Prices realized include a buyer’s premium.

About Certified Guaranty Company® (CGC®)
CGC revolutionized comic book collecting with the introduction of expert and impartial certification services that are backed by a comprehensive guarantee. Now with more than 20 million collectibles certified, CGC is the world’s largest and most trusted third-party grading service for comics, TCGs, sports cards, video games, home video and more.

Pro Football Hall of Fame enshrinees joined community partners and Meridian Health Plan of Michigan, to share life experiences and messages of compassion to nearly 400 young people from the Detroit Area

DETROIT, Nov. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — For the first time, the Pro Football Hall of Fame and Meridian Health Plan of Michigan (Meridian) teamed up to host a Strong Youth Strong Communities (SYSC) Summit at Wayne State University in Detroit. Led by Pro Football Hall of Famers Darrell Green and Aeneas Williams, and former University of North Carolina Women’s Basketball player Iman McFarland, SYSC is based on the premise that investing in today’s youth can yield generational returns and positively impact communities. The program hosted approximately 400 students from the Detroit Public Schools Community District and included opening video remarks by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Today’s event comes at a time when young people across the state are facing a range of behavioral and mental health challenges. In Detroit, over 45% of young people live in poverty, compared to 18.2% of Michigan youth, while 66% of students in Detroit public schools were considered chronically absent in 2023-2024. The former athletes shared powerful personal stories of overcoming adversity, offering young people a compelling message of resilience, determination, and the power to shape their own futures.

“Our young people are facing a range of challenges, and through Strong Youth Strong Communities we’re stepping up to help them and let them know that they are not alone,” said Pro Football Hall of Famer Darrell Green. “We’re here to let young people know that they can discuss the challenges they may be facing, that there are resources available to help them, and that they matter. By doing so, we’re creating strong young people and strong communities in Detroit and across the state.”

The youth summit included ice breaker moments, as well as interactive breakout sessions, where participants could discuss the issues that they may be encountering in their communities or at home.

“We’re proud to host the SYSC summit this year in Detroit on the campus of Wayne State University. We all know Detroit students face many challenges at home, in their neighborhoods, and in the classroom. However, we also know Detroit students are strong, and they are among the best and the brightest and most resilient in the state. They are stronger than any obstacles they may face, and they have what it takes to overcome and succeed. This summit is really about bringing teenagers together to learn lessons on life skills and leadership to help them unlock their potential and to provide a safe space for them to discuss issues that are important to them,” said Patty Graham, Plan President and CEO of Meridian.

About Strong Youth Strong Communities
SYSC is a nationwide campaign led by Centene Corporation, in partnership with the Pro Football Hall of Fame, national non-profit organizations, and local community service providers to bring teens together to learn life and leadership skills that help unlock their potential.
